Chapter 389 Little maid Jiyue
In March of the 17th year of Xide, the weather in Dafeng Dynasty was smooth, and everything was happy, indicating that the coming year will be a good harvest.
There is also a happy atmosphere in the Beijing Palace. Since the winter solstice last year, the emperor has issued an order to select the maids of honor, and all places have always prepared them as a beauty pageant in the harem. After all, the emperor has stood up recently, but there is no one in the harem. Now that your majesty's thirtieth birthday is approaching, the 200 beauties picked up have also settled in various palaces, and each fan is romantic, and she is ready to win the honor and favor.
Ji Yue, a 15-year-old maid of honor in Yin'an Temple, entered the palace because of this election. Yin'an Hall is second only to His Majesty's bedroom. It is a good place for individuals to be jealous. His Majesty eats here every day. If he is liked by His Majesty, he will immediately fly to the branch and become a phoenix. Naturally, she can be assigned here by virtue of power.
However, Jiyue doesn't like it here.
In her fifteen-year short and pure career, she never thought that one day she would be in such a position and compete with many beautiful women. As a commoner's daughter, she originally enjoyed Ronghua so quietly, waiting for her father to choose a good family for her and walk through her life safely. She thought of a political marriage, but married into the royal family? Are there any direct sisters... This time she was not included in the selection of maids of honor, but it was because of the lack of people in the emperor's harem that her father noticed her. As a maid of honor, it is natural to be able to win the holy pet. If not, after three years, it is not a loss for her status as a commoner...
Only when she entered the palace did she know that she was really too cautious when she sent her concubine's daughter into the palace like her father. How many girls of the family entered the palace in the name of a maid of honor just to get a holy face? The emperor is young and handsome. There are few people in the harem, which is the perfect target for the girl Huaichun. What's more, there are few female officials in the palace. After this supplement, a lot of them have been released, and they can approach the holy face in the name of choosing the maid of honor. Everyone thinks that there is a good chance to jump over the Dragon Gate, right?
It's a pity that according to her experience of entering the palace for more than a month. I'm afraid it's an idiot who talks about dreams.
Served in the Yin'an Hall. Naturally, there are many opportunities to see your majesty, and there are also many opportunities to see all kinds of favor-seeking means of beautiful women. Which one is successful? Whether it's a chance encounter, accidental collision, or charming, delicate, naive, weak... There is one that has entered the eyes of the young emperor?
In private, the maids of honor are spreading it. In fact, your majesty doesn't like women...
"Ji Yue, why are you still stunned?" A maid of honor pushed the door and came in. He called her a little eagerly, "Your Majesty has passed the meal, so why don't you make tea!"
Ji Yue answered and hurried to the small cupboard for tea to open the lock and look for it, but saw a very delicate bamboo woven basket at a glance. Suddenly, he was surprised and asked, "Sister Rumei, is this the new batch of wax tea tried by Qianer Beiyuan?"
The maid named Rumei smiled and replied, "Sure enough, the family came out, and his eyes were poisonous! Isn't that it? But this can't be moved. Let's change something else.
Ji Yue glanced at the small basket curiously and took out the daily tea according to her words. She was able to recognize the tea when she was very young. Seeing that Fujian Caosi solemnly sent a small box to her father. When I opened it, there was only a small pinch inside. I heard that it was made by sparrow tongue water buds. Just such a handful, it's 400,000 yuan!
"You don't ask why you can't move?" Rumei smiled and said, "I'm really cautious. Let me tell you, this tea is kept by your majesty for that person. It's just put here for the time being. Don't sip it casually. This kind of thing can't be bought even if you have money."
"Oh." Ji Yue nodded, picked up the tea tray and went out with Rumei, "Does that person like this tea?"
"Fool." Ru Mei sighed, "Where does that person like it? Things in the palace, but if it's more novel, who doesn't know how to stay for that person? It's the person who said he didn't want it, so he would deal with it according to the rules, right?
Ji Yue couldn't stand curiosity. She looked around. They were on their way to Yin'an Hall, and no one noticed the two little maids of honor. Is that person really so favored? Why am I on duty in the Yin'an Hall, and I haven't seen your majesty's call once?
This is her biggest question. After coming to the Yin'an Hall for more than a month, I have seen and heard a lot. I know that today's emperor is extremely diligent. In the past year of pro-government, the people's livelihood of the Dafeng Dynasty have flourished, and the changes are obvious to all, and they praise the courtiers. However, only this word "color" is a little strange: he said that he doesn't like women, but he is the most Love to watch the harem women compete for favor in front of him; for example, those new palace girls play the "accidental encounter" in front of him, repeating and repeating, they can't find out the tricks; but he is not tired of it or annoyed. He falls into his arms and gently lifts him up; pretends to be shy to laugh a few words; "accidentally" sees the talent performance, he can also stop in a hurry. I was busy to appreciate it, but so far, I have never summoned a servant. On the contrary, I have been calling the courtiers to "give banquets" and "night talks".
The Yin'an Hall where she is located, so there are constantly courtiers traveling. Ji Yue felt that she almost recognized all the famous ministers in the court, especially the yellow and white orange counselors in the cabinet, Lord Lu Jin, and even the scholar of Zhou. The one-color process, the dinner given by the Yin'an Hall, the Ming Government Hall on the government, and the Qingyan Hall, that is, the sleeping hall... However, I have never seen "that person". However, Ji Yue also knows that although this process sounds quite ambiguous, it is absolutely impossible for His Majesty to have anything to do with these people. Even she has seen the elegant and romanticism of yellow and white oranges. Lu Jin is handsome from the servant of the four-grade ceremony department, and some young and proud Hanlin talents. However, she has quietly paid attention to it, Your Majesty. Looking at those people, there is enthusiasm, vitality and appreciation, but they all look at the ministers as a king, and they will never have any more emotions.
Why does everyone say that His Majesty is lustful? As for the "that person" among the population, I heard that he never avoids the status of His Majesty's "internal pet" and has a private room in the palace. However, he is obviously on duty in the Fengtu Pavilion not far ahead, why has he never seen him enter the inner palace? It is said that the man has not set foot in the inner courtyard of the harem for months, and your majesty has almost disappeared from Fengtu Pavilion. Is it because your majesty is choosing a maid of honor and making trouble?
"It's rare that our little Jiyue has also started gossip?" Rumei squeezed her eyes and said something, but she saw a maid hurried over there, smiling at the two people from afar, and asked, "Is Sister Jiyue on duty today?"
Ji Yue hurriedly answered and half looked back and smiled tacitly at the eyebrows. Sure enough, the palace daughter continued with a smile: "My sister has been working hard all day. I met my father-in-law before noon. He also ordered me to take more care of my sister. Should I send the tea after the meal for my sister?"
Ji Yue naturally shirked, but she couldn't resist the woman's attention, and finally she was "robbed" of the tea.
Rumei looked at the woman's back and sneered: "It's just your majesty's indulgence these days, one by one by one! I thought that if my father-in-in-law sent more tea, your majesty could look at her more!" With that, he said again, "Do you really think that if that person doesn't come to the palace, he will have a chance to fight for him? Don't look at the situation outside the palace?! Who is out of favor and still so powerful?!
Ji Yue quickly pushed her, "Sister Rumei, stop talking. Go to Yin'an Hall. Don't be late."
Rumei left with half annoyance.
Jiyue stood alone here and finally frowned. Just now, the maid of honor took the tea under the banner of the Red Lord. She didn't dare not give it to her; but she was really afraid that something would happen, and it would eventually be her head. Shaking her head and sighing, Ji Yue said to herself, "I really hope that person will appear soon. Otherwise, when will this play be played?"
As if responding to her words, a smiling voice suddenly sounded around her: "Girl, do you dare to ask if the imperial meal in Yin'an Hall has been announced?"
For a moment when Ji Yue looked back, she felt that the whole world had stopped breathing. The elegant girl with purple robe and jade belt, with a sunny smile, slightly feminine, warm and clear temperament; like the clear water that has precipitated impurities, a sword containing light. At a glance, it is attractive, and the second glance is amazing.
***
After Ji Yue was slightly stunned, she still cautiously saluted the teenager and said, "Your Majesty has already passed on the meal, and it will be used up in about half a minute, right?"
The girl nodded, "Well, Your Majesty, I'll wait here." As he spoke, he looked around and saw that although there were many people around the palace, no one paid attention to the corner of the corridor where they were located, so he simply leaned back and sat on the railing, and there was a word of chatting with Ji Yue.
He did not avoid suspicion, but Ji Yue was a little embarrassed. After a few words, he wanted to find the reason to retreat, but the girl suddenly smiled and asked, "Is Miss Ji Yue in charge of tea in Yin'an Hall?"
Ji Yue was going to leave. Hearing this question, she thumped in her heart. She knew that the conversation between them had just now fallen into the young girl's ears. Then she looked up at the purple robe on him that could only be worn by more than three grades, and her throat was slightly tight.
"Don't be afraid." Seeing that her expression was nervous, the girl comforted her, "I saw what happened just now. In the future, these people will bully them again and just take them back rudely. Is it a play of competing for favor? It doesn't matter if you watch the fire across the shore; if you burn yourself, no one can stand it, right?
Ji Yue's face turned pale, but she also understood that the girl was making fun of her words. She looked straight at her heart, but she saw that the girl did not look malicious. She continued with a funny look and said, "Actually, the red father-in-law is the most cunning and lazy: just accept the money, but if you don't If you are willing to let him, he doesn't dare to pick half of your mistakes. Isn't that the case, Grandpa Hong?
