Zidai Xing

Chapter 130 Cold Eve

Nanqi, Yangling.

In the magnificent palace, Zhai's clothes are thin hairpins, cloud temples and jade rings, and the arms of Emperor Chengning's Empress Qiu's arms jumped off, revealing half of her snow-white wrists. She is graceful, with a round face and plump cheeks. She is very lucky, but she is not very beautiful. She is cling to a pen and guessing the artistic conception of an orange tree that has just moved over by His Highness. .

The person next to her who studied ink was not a palace man, but a five- or six-year-old and luxuriously dressed boy with beautiful eyebrows. Queen Qiu brewed and dipped ink in the inkstone again, only two strokes. Outside, she hurried into a colorful palace man, holding a note, waiting to report, but was winked by the boy who studied ink and was busy. He made a sound and stepped aside.

If Queen Qiu didn't see it, she didn't finish painting the whole orange tree, looked carefully, and discussed it with the boy next to her for a moment before she nodded with satisfaction: "Take the private seal of this palace." At present, there are palace people who have held the small seal used by Empress Qiu in private. After asking for instructions, they printed it on the upper left corner of the painting - Nanqi knows that Empress Qiu's calligraphy is excellent and her painting skills are mediocre, but she is fond of painting. When she painted, it was when the late Emperor Gaozong was alive, there was an emergency call to finish the last stroke of painting. Gao Zong did not think so. Instead, she stroked her for her dedication and had the ancient style of being a sincere gentleman.

Gao Zong praised that when he arrived at Emperor Chengning, even the Empress Dowager Feng did not dare to disturb her when she was painting. The man in the colorful palace waited for a moment. Empress Qiu ordered everyone to take down the picture of the orange tree, looked up at her and asked tevely, "What's the matter?"

"Mother, this is the news that just arrived." The people in the colorful palace saluted and held the letter in both hands.

Queen Qiu glanced at it, and the boy went down to pick it up and brought it up to her. Empress Qiu opened her eyes and looked at it. The corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, showing a smile. The close servant knew that Empress Qiu was born in the Jiangnan clan and was too angry and has always been fearless. Now she doesn't say anything, and her eyes are full of smiles, which is extremely high. It's fun, but Queen Qiu's rules are tight, and everyone doesn't dare to tease at will.

The boy in gorgeous clothes asked curiously, "Why is the imperial grandmother happy?"

This boy is Zuo Qiuzhen, the eldest grandson of Queen Qiu and now the eldest son of Zuo Qiuyan, the prince of Southern Qi. He was always happy. The full moon was brought up by him from the East Palace. At this moment, after listening to Zuo Qiuzhen's words, Queen Qiu smiled deeper, gently put the letter in his hand and said with a smile, "Your father is worry-free! "

Zuo Qiu really looked at it, and his eyes also lit up!

.............................................................

When the envoy of Nanqi returned to the house, the last group of pickers also lived in the Suihue Palace. Ji Shen pressed for a long time. After all, when he personally looked at the selection, he was overjoyed and ordered the harem to accompany Sun and others - it was also a reference for him.

Everyone does not object to this order. After all, the truth of knowing oneself and knowing the other is put there.

Early in the morning, Ah Shan led a group of people to the inner hall. The clothes were repeatedly selected a few days ago. They were jade-woven gold on the wide sleeves. The collar was embroidered with layers of hibiscus leaves with crow green and primrose two-color silk thread, but there was a sparse phoenix tail pattern on the long sleeves, with a treasure twisted gold belt and a snow-green fairy skirt. The gold thread on the skirt is embroidered with bats, which is refracted and brilliant.

After discussing with A Shan and others, he asked Mu Biwei's meaning and combed a simple Japanese bun for her. The hairpin ring was made of four jasper flowers, and a pair of gold-inlaid gem hibiscus flowers shook step by step. The two night pearls fell down the corners of the temples and hung straight to the corners of their eyes. There was another one The main workpin is in the shape of a bat, holding Yuzhi in the mouth, and a string of beads hanging on the Zhi, which falls on the center of the eyebrows and coincides with Cuiqi.

In this way, he painted the distant mountain eyebrows, floped the yellow powder, made a new moon mark, pasted it on the star, put Tiangong's skillful makeup on his lips, put on gold, jade bracelets, jumps and other things, hung a circle on the neck, tied their clothes and rolled their skirts together, held the long hair full of concubine-colored rich peony and put them on their arms - a group looked left and right, and took it again. A pair of white jade rings pressed the corners of their skirts and walked step by step, and then the dress was finished.

Looking at the hour, Ah Shan personally fed a small bowl of blue terrier rice porridge. Mu Biwei told Fan and Deng Haosheng to take care of Princess Fu Xiping, and then went to the Suihu Palace.

The name of Suihu Palace is taken from Yu's old "Sui Sui White Fox, nine-tailed Pang Pang. Chengzi's family is a prosperous city, which means that the children are prosperous, and they have always taken daughters to live in it to wish the royal descendants to reproduce.

Ji Shen stayed in the prayer hall last night. Although Sun was still charming and beautiful, he was thinking about the newcomer, but he arrived early. Mu Bi looked at the emperor outside the Suihu Palace and smiled sneered. A Shan helped him.

Entering the Suihu Palace, I felt that there was a fragrance of powder everywhere. Before I arrived in the hall, I had heard several strange and crisp girls laughing. Mu Bi squeezed her lips slightly and asked the servant who led the way: "Has it started now?"

The waiter hurriedly said, "Your Majesty hasn't begun to summon the pickers yet. Several pickers don't know that your majesty is coming today. They played with flowers on the edge of the palace road in the early morning. It happened that Your Majesty and You Zhaoyi came in and saw them, so they called the main hall by the way. Now those pickers are talking and laughing with Your Majesty."

Mu Biwei exchanged glances with Ah Shan and said with a faint smile, "Listen to a few lively pickers!"

The waiter smiled and said, "Your Majesty just said so."

Mu Bi smiled slightly and said that the liveliness of Bengong was not the same as Ji Shen's so-called liveliness!

Ashan asked again, "No other ladies in the palace have arrived except Your Majesty and You Zhaoyi?"

"Ninghua Niang and Rong Hua Niang have arrived." The servant whispered, "The Empress Chenghui had a fever yesterday and told her majesty that she would not come this morning."

Mu Biwei also knew about Jiao's sudden illness. He was not surprised, but said, "So He Guangxun hasn't come yet?"

"It's exactly the words of the Empress." After saying this, he also went outside the hall. The maidservant guarding the entrance of the hall hurried in to report. Ashan took the purse and the maidservant who led the way. Soon, the attendant who reported came out and asked Mu Biwei to go in.

Entering the main hall, I saw Ji Shen wearing a crown, dressed in a majestic dress, against him and handsome. He was really suspected of heaven. Next to him, Sun was dressed in a purple brocade suit. The style was similar to the queen's clothes, and even her long hair was drawn into Lingyun buns. The pearls were more luxurious than one, depicting the long eyebrows that grew into the temples. The phoenix's eyes are evil, which is in sharp contrast to the spring breeze on Ji Shen's face.

Seeing Mu Biwei coming in, the two smiled at the same time. Sun eased the original anger and reluctantly pulled out a smile to Mu Biwei and nodded slightly, but Ji Shen was in a good mood. She waved to Mu Biwei to sit down with her right hand and pointed to your Highness. One of the women who gave the seat smiled and said, "Wei Niang, who do you think this is?"

Mu Biweili was called Danqi before she could go. She sat down and listened to his question. She was surprised to see what he pointed, but she saw that among the four or five picking girls under her, Ji Shen pointed out was a girl with double snails, golden bells, colorful clothes and eyebrows. She was about 14 or fifteen years old, and her eyebrows were not the same. The ordinary girl's euphemistic and sentimental attitude was quite resolute and frank, but Mu Bi stared at her slightly and still had no clue, so she had to lean over and say, "My concubine is clumsy, but I don't recognize this girl!"

She said so. Before Ji Shen answered, she heard the colorful woman say calmly, "Your Majesty, the people's daughter hasn't finished her words yet. The father of the people's daughter is the old department, but how can Xuanhui's mother know the people who grew up in the northwest?"

When the daughter said this, Mu Biwei suddenly realized and asked, "How many of my father's old departments have also heard of this palace, but I don't know who you are?"

The girl in colorful clothes got up and saluted her and shouted, "Returning to Xuanhui's mother's words, the people's daughter's surname is Ye, Ye Hanxi, and her father Ye Zi returned. Since the time of the late emperor, she has been the old shepherd's department, and the people's female brother was also a subordinate of Sima."

"I remember the return of the leaves." Mu Bi thought for a moment and secretly celebrated that when Mu Qi talked to Mu Bichuan in the past, he refused to leave. He also remembered a few people. At this moment, he smiled and said, "But when he was the late emperor, he met Rouran's attack. He didn't have enough to fight in armor. He was cut down and returned without damage, but he was reprimanded by his father. ?"

Ye Hanxi, a daughter in colorful clothes, smiled and said respectfully, "If you go back to your mother's words, it is my father, but although Mu Ling scolded her, she is also a love for my father. After that, Mu Ling also invited General Huwei for my father!"

"General Ye is unparalleled. At that time, I also praised him when I heard about it from my father, but I was afraid of this matter." Mu Biwei saw that her respectful attitude towards herself was not hypocritical, and she couldn't help but feel that she was a little kind. Speaking of this, she turned her head and became apologeous as usual. "Don't your majesty think that with General Ye's bravery and loyalty, he taught such an excellent and handsome girl to enter the palace to serve your majesty. It's too much for a general Huwei. Aggrieved, right?"

Ji Shen had a good talk with Ye Hanxi, and now she happily said, "What Wei Niang said is right, then I will return Jin Yezi..."

He didn't know how to award here, so he heard Ye Hanxi say lightly, "Your Majesty, the father of the people's daughter, don't be promoted."

Ji Shen was stunned. Mu Biwei knew that he didn't like to be rejected the most, so she quickly said, "You just entered the palace and haven't got a serious position yet. Now you have been promoted to father and brother, which is indeed not in line with the rules." He said to Ji Shen, "Your Majesty, General Ye is very good at teaching his daughter. Although it is serious to promote his father's family after the official title of Hanxi, we don't care about this, but the previous dynasty inevitably has to say more about this matter. It's better to make an order after the official title. These are all sensible in Hanxi."

โ€”โ€” According to the rules, if you want to enter the palace to honor your father's family, you should at least have a concubine. No matter how an exception, you must have a formal concubine, but usually take a daughter into the palace, unless the Empress Dowager Gao wanted to marry Ji Shen and choose the daughter of a high official to show her eunuch, in order to set off the queen. Respect, the number of people in the same group will be slightly higher, and the former county's eldest daughter has also dispersed the name of beauty, and this time it is probably similar.

After Mu Biwei said this, regardless of the picking girl next to her, Ye Hanxi can't run away from the lowest royal daughter.

Other girls also know something in the Suihu Hall these days. At this moment, they look at Ye Hanxi with envy.

Unexpectedly, Ye Hanxi said, "In the words of Your Majesty and the Empress, the reason why the people's daughter said that the father of the people's daughter should not be promoted is that the people's parents and brothers, sisters-in-law and sisters-law, and the two younger brothers have all died in the Xuelan Pass in Taining for five years, and they have been sealed in the subsequent court, so it is no need!"

For a while, the hall was suffocated.
