Chapter 331: Flowers are charming

He took out a delicate pendant from his arms, and the half-moon-shaped upper blood amber, and the flower beetle inside is still clearly visible. "This blood amber has been worn by Yuwei since she was a child. Today, I want to give it to the Empress. I hope the Empress will not dislike it."

The extremely bright blood-red color is set off by the white hands, which is more and more dazzling, and you can know at a glance that it is a rare good thing.

Empress Zhang looked at it with a smile, ordered the maid to take it over, and said with a smile, "It's hard for my sister to be so careful, and I'm willing to give such a best blood, but I have to be disrespectful."

All the women seemed to have some regret and sighed that they had missed such a flattering opportunity, but the maids of Fengyi Palace did not wait for them to pick things, so they hurriedly led them out of the hall.

"Empress----" The eyeliner eunuch arranged by the queen in the palace quickly trotted over, attached himself to the queen Zhang's ear, and said in a low voice, "The news of Yingchuan came from the front that Princess Ding was pregnant again, and now she is preparing to enter Beijing with King Ding."

"Is Song Zichu pregnant again?" Empress Zhang was shocked when she heard the words. She withdrew her eyes from the beautiful girl in the distance, raised her hand to repel the palace man in the corner of the temple, and frowned and said, "This is not a big deal. Does the emperor know?"

"Yes." The man nodded repeatedly and asked, "The slave was a little worried. The emperor seemed to treat the King Ding and Princess Ding back to the palace this time. I don't know what my mother is going to do?"

Empress Zhang naturally understood what he said. Previously, Jun Yusul was so careful about Song Zichu, and later Shangguan Wanyan. These two women are enough to verify that the emperor is a long-term and dedicated man. Otherwise, how to explain that for nearly a year after Shangguan Wan's death, there has never been a real favorite concubine in the harem?

Today's Concubine Xi is just because the emperor passed by her palace after drinking one night and was invited by her to go back to rest for a night. Between them, the two of them had the same thing. Later, it was said that the emperor calmly sent someone to give her a medicine to avoid the child. In order to seal her mouth, he gave her a seemingly glorious concubine. Of course, the root of it is because of Xifei's mother's family, which is the emperor's powerful arm in the court. Otherwise, what will happen to others?

And as for how Shen Gui's position came from, it is even simpler. The queen knew everything about Shen Rongrong. Naturally, she knew that the emperor gave her such a position for the sake of her mother's family.

It's not a good thing to go on like this. As a queen, even if you are no longer favored, you have to have your own son, so that you can sit firmly in the middle palace.

Queen Zhang raised her hand and stopped talking, "You go down first and let me be quiet."

As the time for the newlyweds to enter the palace passed day by day, the emperor's attitude towards the newlyweds gradually increased. Among them, Ge Gui is charming, happy and smiling, and there is a little girlishness between words and deeds, so he is the most lucky to be summoned by newcomers.

In addition, Jiang Jieyu in the same palace also had some favors. The two of them got close, and even the errands of the Jade Palace became hot for a while.

Originally, the calm harem was slightly turbulent, but except for Shen Guifei who often complained a few words to the queen in the morning and dusk, Xifei was at ease with this. The remaining concubines were not favored in the past. Now after seeing the newcomers entering the palace, they are much quieter, so more than half a month has passed in a flash. However, everything is fine.

After the newlyweds enter the palace, it is customary to let the imperial concubines gather together.

This flower appreciation banquet is set in the backyard of Fengyi Palace. The table is full of fresh fruits, honey, snacks and so on, which are just for the scene.

On the contrary, dozens of flower teas made by Yuqi Palace are particularly novel, such as water fragrance, new lotus jade dew, peony spring, Muxi clear dew, fragrant jade soup, etc., all kinds of dazzling patterns, either fresh, rich, or moist and sweet, all of which make young palace concubines feel fresh, interesting and amazing.

Seeing that the opening moment was approaching, the concubines of each palace had taken their seats in order. On the table, there were clusters of flowers and warbler sounds, but only Concubine Xi was missing.

Jun Yusun looked at the empty seat on the left side, and her face was slightly unhappy, but it was not convenient for many concubines to attack. She frowned and ordered, "Sent someone to urge, do you want everyone to wait for her?"

When Liu Shan heard the words, he knew that Concubine Xi was losing her temper again. He hurriedly led people to Enxi Palace to invite her, but the news she brought back said that Concubine Xi occasionally felt uncomfortable and was inconvenient to come during her illness.

"Your Majesty, since Concubine Xi's sister is not feeling well, the emperor will visit her another day. Come on, moisten your throat first." Empress Zhang said and personally brought a snow-water fragrant plum dew, with a few jade hairpin petals floating on the light honey-colored soup to get its fresh aroma.

"Since Concubine Xi's sister is not happy, we don't have to wait any longer. If we ask someone to send some food at the table later, she will know the emperor's heart."

Jun Yushu listened to her gentleness and said, but laughed, "What you said is so kind, can I refute it? It's rare for people to come here. Today, it should be more lively and have fun.

The queen smiled and raised her hand to signal the start of the banquet. Suddenly, the sound of silk bamboo was endless.

After the opening program of the song and dance workshop, it will be the turn of the new concubines to show their talents. The first is the cloud floating wave dance accompanied by Ge Guiren playing Xiao.

Ge Guiren is dressed very gorgeously today. She specially combed a peach heart bun, a double-headed Danzhu slender winged hairpin, a few beads of green flowers, and a beautiful yellow forehead in the center of her eyebrows, which made her face as sweet as spring flowers.

Jiang Jieyu also changed into a thin silk dance shirt, dressed in a golden bird-painted long skirt, decorated with fine crystals, and slowly stepped on the stage, and immediately rubbed a string of "squeaks" sounds on the brocade blanket.

Ge Guiren turned his head slightly, and his red lips opened gently, and the soft and long Xiao sound came from the jade flute, gradually spreading along the breeze, lingering and wrapping everyone in it. Jiang Jieyu's dance posture is quite similar to that of Die Ji before. She walked a graceful and soft path. She lowered her waist and rotated her hands rapidly. The faster she danced, the faster she danced, and the slender and transparent skirt rotated and flew all over the sky.

Jiang Jieyu is beautiful and elegant, and does not have the enchanting and charming temperament of the dancers in the palace, but because of the dance, she has created an extra elegant posture, which is as beautiful as water.

After watching it, Jun Yusu couldn't help stroking his palm and said with a smile, "The two of them complement each other, and the dance music is wonderful."

Ge Guiren handed over the jade flute to the palace people, pulled Jiang Jieyu and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, Jiang Jieyu has been practicing hard for today's dance for half a month, and my concubine is also ashamed."

After Jiang Jieyu finished modesty, she said, "The emperor is happy today, so I have a merciless invitation to my concubine. Jiang Jieyu has worked hard for a long time and deserves double the reward, so let's combine the concubine's share."

Jun Yu smiled and said, "Well, I'm sure."

The concubines continued to praise, and the atmosphere of the banquet gradually became lively, and then Yao Cairen celebrated the banquet with calligraphy on the spot.

The two little maids came up with a pair of red silk and stood on both sides. In front of them, there was a little eunuch kneeling with a pen and ink. Yao Cai came forward and picked up a jade pipe wolf in one hand. Did he intend to do both?

The concubines couldn't help but smack their tongues, and the emperor, who was originally indifferent, also came to his spirits. Yao Cairen stained the two wolves with thick ink, and his two pens quickly wrote down quickly. In one breath, he finally ended his pen and smiled slightly.

The little eunuch quickly held it in front of the emperor. The words on the two red silks are different. The left book is "deeply affectionate" and the right book is "the piano and singing". Yao Cairen came forward and said, "I have nothing to do. I can only present this double couplet. May the emperor and the empress raise the case with the same eyebrows and long love, and be blessed by the concubine. Wait for others."

"Very good, very good." Jun Yu looked particularly happy. He looked back at the queen Zhang with a smile and ordered Liu Shan, "It's hard for Yao Cairen to be so careful. Send these two pieces of red silk to the pottery museum, frame them and then send them to the queen's palace. Well, just hang them in the small study where the queen usually writes. Don't damage them carefully."

Liu Shan quickly went down in person like a treasure, and the emperor ordered a heavy reward for Yao Cairen, which was very promising.

In this way, it is inevitable to peel away a lot of the scenery of Jiang Jieyu.

Empress Zhang stared around the beautiful women, with a panoramic view of all kinds of expressions, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Yao Cai's beauty. I deeply miss the daily care of your sisters and thank you one by one another day."

Ge Guiren was also calm. He looked sideways and saw that Shen Guicubine was a little distracted. He couldn't help laughing and said in a low voice, "Sister Guicubine, your tea is about to spill out."

When Shen Guicubine heard the sound, she looked down and saw that the flower tea in her hand was almost tilted and spilled out, and her face suddenly blushed. Fortunately, Jiang Jieyu next to her had helped her, so she smiled and quickly sat up and didn't mention it.

Concubine Xi sat beside the queen, got up, picked up a few pieces of fruit and walked over, attached to her ear and laughed softly, "Empress, look at their appearance. In the future, our palace will be very lively."

Jun Yusulul asked with a smile, "Concubine Xi, what are you muttering about?"

"Nothing----" Concubine Xi was unexpectedly heard by the emperor. At that moment, she quickly pulled her shirt, went back to her seat and sat down. She turned around and smiled at the emperor, "My concubine saw that Jiang Jieyu and the others got a reward, and also wanted to ask the emperor for something."

When Queen Zhang heard the words, she took off the red musk lettering bracelet on her wrist and handed it to Concubine Xi, "How dare you say this month in front of the newcomer? Really, you are older than them now. Don't be as childish as before. Put this on and stop messing around.

Concubine Xi smiled and said, "Yes, I thank the empress for the reward."

Jun Yusuan looked boringly and just shook her head. It happened that the Yang sisters came with a plate of small purse, which were colorful and unique, and the needles and threads were also very delicate. One of them said, "My concubines are stupid and don't know anything else, so they are embroidered with a plate of flower seed fragrant lotus bags, and each of them embroider one side to chat. Count it as a little heart."

The purse inside is of different sizes and patterns are different. The two most gorgeous in the middle are naturally dedicated to the emperor and queen, and the two next to Concubine Feng and Xi and Shen Guifei, and the rest of the purse is slightly reduced according to the grade of the imperial concubine.
