Hor palace: Jinzhi Yulu

Chapter 57 Concubine Watching the Play

These days, Yao Yulu spent every day under the careful care of Ji Shuidong. Occasionally, Song Jinzhi and Lv Fangxiao came to visit, and Yao Yujiao also came twice to deliver some supplements. On this day, she felt that she was much better, so she slowly got up. Ji Shuidong had just come back from flucking water and saw her sitting up and quickly walked over and said, saying "Sister, where are you going?"

"These days, people are lying down. The weather outside is nice today, and I want to walk around."

Ji Shuidong put down the wooden basin in his hand and said with a smile, "Well, today the yard is very sunny, and the yard is warm. Shuidong takes a walk with his sister."

"This is going to be summer." Yao Yulu stood in the garden and looked at the bright sunshine and the crisp sound of birds and insects in the yard. Her mood was cheerful that she had never seen these days.

"That's the case. Sister, you see, these peach blossoms are not as good as the day before yesterday."

Yao Yulu looked at the peach blossom, gently brushed it with her hand and dropped a few flowers: "The weather is going to get hot, and the peach blossoms are not so lush."

"Sister, I think you are almost fine. It's only ten days away from the draft, and my sister should also make some preparations."

Yao Yulu nodded and said, "It's true. It's time to dress up well, but you can only see your own appearance during the draft."

She was still worried. After all, such a big thing happened before the draft, which had a more or less impact on her.

At this time, Song Jinzhi also came in from the door and said, "Yao Xiunu, it seems that she is almost in good body and can walk around."

Yao Yulu's affection for Song Jinzhi has doubled because of this incident. At present, she is not worthy of being an enemy of others. She said, "Yes, you can go to the ground. Where did Song Xiunu come back from?"

"Aunt just announced that she would hold an opera party in Fangyuan tomorrow and invited many famous actors in the capital. The queen allowed the girls to accompany them." Song Jinzhi was a little careful when he said this, afraid it would hurt Yao Yulu.

Yao Yulu lowered her eyebrows in an instant, but quickly said cheerfully, "That's a good thing. Shuidong, Song Xiunu, you should prepare more, but such an occasion is important."

"Sister..." Ji Shuidong muttered that he was afraid that Yao Yulu would be a little sad.

"Shuidong, I'm fine. I'm still not flexible now. There will be many opportunities like this in the future, not bad once." Although Yao Yulu said this, she was a little sad in her heart. In this way, the scene in which all the beautiful girls participated fell on her alone. She lowered her eyebrows and said no more.

Ji Shuidong didn't want to touch her sadness any more and didn't say much.

The next day, the concubines gathered in Fangyuan after lunch, and the girls sat in the back seat under the leadership of Lv Fangxiao.

This opera will invite many famous actors in the city, and the concubines are also full of interest. Although they have never seen such a position of beautiful women full of curiosity, they dare not say much in the face of these high-ranking women.

The queen sat in the middle, left and right for Xiao Shufei and Yufei. The noble concubine sat next to Xiao Shufei. When the queen saw that all the people had come, she said, "Sisters, let's gather here to watch the play in such a good weather today. Why don's choose a good play to start."

Xiao Shufei turned her eyebrows and said, "It's better to borrow the belly and return the beads. This song is very good. Although the woman is looking forward to her mother and son, she doesn't want to give birth to a girl. This is very interesting."

Xiao Shufei's words can be understood by people, but it refers to scolding Huai. It's just that the noble concubine is no longer the previous noble concubine. The emperor has treated her very well these days, and the people in the palace also treated her politely. Even the empress dowager often went to the Guilan Hall to visit her, which was in the palace. Other concubines also Every once in a year, he ran to Guilan Hall to send some jewelry and cloth. Therefore, the current noble concubine will not swallow her anger. She said sarcastically, "I think it's better to point out Concubine Yu's favor. Now some people have been favored, and some people are jealous.

Xiao Shufei didn't expect that this little noble concubine dared to refute so with the child in her womb. She glanced at the noble concubine and said, "From the perspective of this palace, this concubine Yu is spoiled without a name, but she is the next choice."

At this time, Yao Yujiao smiled and said, "Your concubine, it's better to have a good color building. The woman in this play is mistaken for being promiscuous, and she is also very pitiful."

"What does the Jade Concubine mean? Isn't it doubting the son of my concubine?"

"The noble concubine must be careless, but she is just watching a play. How can there be so many meanings? Moreover, the noble concubine can't bear the charge of falling to this palace.

The queen frowned slightly and said, "Okay, today is watching the play, and you have had enough bickering. What's more, if the noble concubine is pregnant, it should be as she wishes. Then order a song to be favored by Concubine Yu."

With that, there was a burst of beating gongs and drums on the stage, and singing vividly. A play was meticulous and touching. It can be seen that the play is beautiful, and no one has been distracted after a few songs.

At this time, Yao Yulu sat alone by the window with a lonely look and looked at the quiet Taoyuan Hall. Her heart now felt like this Taoyuan Hall, cold and lonely. She looked at the vegetation in the hall, the lonely threshold, and the square sky, and couldn't help but feel sad. This hard work entered the palace. , one by one only made her tired and exhausted, and even with the help of her father and sister, she was afraid that it would be difficult to ascend to a high position.

The more she thought about it, the more sad she became, but she inadvertently found out the jewelry box given by the previous Eighth Prince. She thought in her heart that maybe the draft was defeated, and it was not a bad thing to leave the palace.

In the evening, the actresses returned to the Taoyuan Hall after participating in the opera. The hall became lively. Ji Shuidong pushed the door in and said happily, "Sister, the famous actors in this imperial city are really different. These plays are very beautiful."

After she said it, she felt a little disappointed. Yao Yulu was lonely in the house all afternoon. I'm afraid it would only add sadness to her description.

Yao Yulu was not unhappy. She smiled and asked, "What drama have you watched?"

Although she is the daughter of the Yao family, the opera meeting has nothing to do with her over the years. Several wives have sat with their children. When she gets her, she can only look closely at the corner of the stage when she secretly looking at her from afar or helping her with tea, Qingyi...

"Fe Concubine Yu is favored, Xie Jiangting..." Ji Shuidong saw that Yao Yulu was doing as usual and wanted to infect the happy atmosphere a little, so he spoke with great interest.

"It seems that this opera is really good, which makes our sister Ji so happy." Yao Yulu joked.

"Sister, don't laugh at me like this. The singers in our hometown are all setting up a small stage, and the clothes the actors wear are not so orthodox. I'm so excited to see such a scene for the first time."

Yao Yulu smiled and didn't say much.

This day passed day by day, and it was about to arrive at the time of the draft. On this day, Yao Yulu went to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine and wanted to borrow a bowl. The bowl used to cook medicine in the room was accidentally broken. Ji Shuidong was supposed to go, but she was bored for a long time in Taoyuan Hall. Seeing that her body was fine, she went by herself.

Yao Yulu arrived at the imperial hospital and happened to meet Xiao Xuanzi. Xiao Xuanzi also came to get some medicinal materials. Seeing Yao Yulu coming from afar and hurried up, he always felt that he owed Yao Yulu an apology.

"Yao Xiunu, but when I saw you, I blamed the slave for not making it clear last time, which almost caused a big disaster." Xiao Xuanzi felt guilty and touched his head with his hand and said.

Yao Yulu looked at Xiao Xuanzi's appearance and went to eat and laugh. She never blamed Xiao Xuanzi on the day she was engaged in the hair. This little internal supervisor was just kind enough to tell her the secret recipe. Who would have thought that she would be soaked in wine? She said, "I have never blamed you. You don't have to do this."

When Xiao Xuanzi saw that Yao Yulu did not look angry as he thought, he carefully asked, "Yao Xiunu really doesn't have a strange slave?"

"Of course, you don't have to call yourself a slave all the time. I'm just a show girl." Yao Yulu saw that Xiao Xuanzi was very simple and spoke directly. She liked it very much.

"That's good, Yao Xiunu is here to get the medicine?" Xiao Xuanzi asked.

"Yes, I still want to borrow a bowl of medicine from the imperial hospital, but I don't know if I can borrow it."

Xuanzi came forward and whispered, "The people in this hospital are very much about it. I'm afraid it's difficult for Yao Xiunu to get it by herself. Let me go."

Yao Yulu looked at Xiao Xuanzi and said, "That's sorry to bother you."

Xiao Xuanzi walked into the back hall and took out a brand-new bowl after a while. He handed it to Yao Yulu and said, "This bowl is new. I don't know how long it will take for Yao Xiunu?"

Yao Yulu thought for a moment and said, "I'll stay up late at night. This is the last time, and I don't need it after that."

"Then Yao Xiunu should bring it to me early tomorrow morning. The little eunuch for me is worried." Xiao Xuanzi said with a smile.

Yao Yulu felt that Xiao Xuanzi's words were also funny, and he was not a little eunuch.

"Thank you, Grandpa Xuan. I'll deliver it tomorrow morning."

Yao Yulu had already taken the medicine and took the bowl to say goodbye. Walking along the road, she saw a very good view of the imperial garden. Her steps were slower, but she saw the noble concubine in the distance coming.

Yao Yulu was shocked and almost dropped the bowl on the ground in a hurry. She wanted to dodge in a panic, so she looked around and saw a rockery next to her run over and hid behind the mountain. She was too scared to vent her anger.

Unexpectedly, when Yao Yulu was hiding around, the noble concubine had seen Yao Yulu and came over with her head held high, followed by four maids of honor. She looked at Yao Yulu's panicked look and seemed to be fine. Unexpectedly, an anger came out of nowhere and deliberately walked towards the rockery. .
