Chapter 1 Practice at the end of autumn
At the end of autumn, the wind was cool, and the windows in the hall were closed, leaving only a few open towards the corridor and lotus pond.
Changjin Palace did not have a dark canal to make the hot spring flow like Ganquan Palace, and Yedu was not south of the Yangtze River. At this time, the lotus pool was already desolate, but several evergreen cypress trees beside the pool were still energetic.
Several gentle thrushes under the corridor kept chirping and spread to Chinan. Su Si, a little palace girl, held a snake-necked fine porcelain bottle with a frozen green and white background painting fish, and saw a small figure writing something in the open south window from afar from the pool. A woman in gorgeous clothes next to her also lowered her head and turned sideways. As if she was guiding, Su Si couldn't help asking Su Ge, who was with her colleague, "Your Highness, have you started learning calligraphy now?"
"Let's start to draw red today." Su Ge and the great maid of Chenglian Hall are cousins in a distant room. They are relatively face-looking and well-informed among the little maids of Chenglian Hall. She and Susi usually go in and out together. When they heard the words, they also took a look and lowered their voices and groan coldly, "It's all caused by the prayer hall!"
Su Siqi said, "What's the matter with our Royal Highness painting red and Guan You Zhaoyi?"
"A few days ago, didn't Your Majesty take the nobles and the two princesses to the hot spring mountain palace to escape the summer?" Su silk curled the corners of her mouth and said, "A few days before the holy driver returned to the palace, You Zhaoyi took a few words with the words wishing your majesty, saying that the princess of Xintai specially made up for the holy birthday gift... Your majesty was naturally happy and rewarded Princess Xintai, but our highness is the eldest daughter, and your majesty also gave your majesty almost One, I don't want to, so I hate Your Highness!"
She lowered her voice and whispered, "I heard from my cousin. At that time, You Zhaoyi didn't say anything. When the Empress took care of Your Highness to drink soup at dinner, You Zhaoyi opened her mouth and first praised the Empress's attention to Your Highness. If she didn't want to continue, she changed her words and said that Princess Xintai was her sister, and Your Highness was the eldest sister. Now Princess Xintai can It's enough to write the words "Wan Shou Wujiang" to make up for Your Majesty's birthday gift. Why hasn't the Empress taught His Highness to start drawing red?
Su Si was surprised: "Princess Xintai is only three years old, can she actually write?"
So what? Your Highness is not the mother's own, but the Empress has also regarded Your Highness as her own in the past two years. Plain silk. Zi was anxious. In addition, her cousin was the grand maid of Chenglian Hall, and she also gave her some face. At this time, there was no one around, but she talked to Su Si casually. She hummed, "You Zhaoyi didn't think about it. Our Highness and Princess Xintai were born weaker. Now at this time, we don't After wearing a jacket, His Highness had to put on two jackets, and he had to wear a cloak to not shout cold when he went out. The Empress didn't ask His Highness to learn anything. It was precisely because she felt sorry for His Highness that she was not like You Zhaoyi. In order to compete with His Majesty, she forced Princess Xintai to start to start learning words at such a young age, and she also dragged our Her Royal Highness. Go to the water!"
"Why does the Empress have to pay attention to You Zhaoyi?" Although Susi is young, she has been serving in the Chenglian Hall for the past two years. She also knows that although Xuanhui's position is only a concubine, she is even afraid of right Zhaoyi in terms of favor. In the past two years, new people have been added to the palace one after another. Coupled with the original old people, they have never been broken from each other, and Xuanhui has never suffered a loss.
said, "How can this be ignored? Your Highness is still young, but you and I already know that Your Highness is not the mother's biological daughter. When the Empress entered the palace, she was embarrassed by the left and right prime ministers. She was promoted to the throne because of her upbring Her Royal Highness. Now You Zhaoyi has taken the new Thai princess than our highness. Not to mention our highness, Princess Xintai also surrendered to your majesty's filial piety. Xiao, after all, our Highness is also your majesty's flesh and blood. Your Majesty will not care about it because of a word, but you think that if You Zhaoyi said this, what will others will talk about if you don't ask Your Highness to keep up with the progress of Princess Xintai?
Seeing that Su Si was still ignorant, she hated it and said, "Naturally, it is the meeting to discuss whether the Empress is not Your Highness's biological mother!" I neglected Your Highness's teaching, which made Your Highness lagging behind Princess Xintai as the eldest sister!"
"But the Empress didn't ask Your Highness to learn because Your Highness is weak!" Su Sine said, "Your Highness, how noble are the golden branches and jade leaves? It doesn't matter if you study a few years later, right? The most important thing is to take good care of yourself. I don't think the Empress did this to treat Your Highness badly!"
"You are from our temple. Naturally, you think so, but others won't say so." The silk hummed, "They can't wait for the bad in our palace. It's better for Your Highness not to trust the Empress, or Your Highness is overworked and sick, so as to attack the Empress for not taking good care of Your Highness!"
Su Si was surprised and said, "What should I do now?"
"Didn't you see it just now?" Subo said with hatred, "There is nothing I can do. In order not to ask Liugong to say that she has treated Your Highness badly, and that Your Highness will not blame her in the future, I have to teach Your Highness to draw red now!"
Su Si turned her head and looked at the other side of the pool, but now they had walked a while, but they were blocked by the rockery. The path turned around, but went up to the cloister west of the pool, and then turned to the north of the pool. Now it was the time for hundreds of flowers to be killed at the end of autumn, but there was ** in full bloom at this time in the porch. A basin was golden and brilliant, occasionally cut off. However, the place is still beautiful and prosperous. There is a row of about 17 or 18 bird cages hanging on the flowers. At this time, the cloth on the bird cage has been removed, and there are not only thrushes in it. In addition, there are also several larks and parrots. When they see people coming, they call more and more into a ball.
Su Si and Su Bai secretly complained in their hearts. They sent things to Mu Biwei on this trip. Just now, across the shore of the pool, they saw Mu Biwei accompanying Princess Xiping to learn words. Now these birds are not going to disturb them?
The two walked through the corridor with a little trembling. When they arrived at the door, they saw Su Ge and Su Xiu make a silent gesture. They took the porcelain bottle and a small wooden box in Subo's hand and asked in a low voice, "But Gu Gongshi gave it by himself?"
"Exact." Su Bo said, "Sister, don't worry, we don't go back to get things. These are for Your Highness's hand. No matter how busy Gu Gong is, he will find them in person."
"Today, Min Qingyi saw that the porch ** was well opened. He cut some and said to steam a chrysanthemum cake. You two are going to the small kitchen now. Maybe Tsing Yi will appreciate you a piece of it." Seeing this, Su Ge nodded, and Su Xiu next to him said with a smile.
Su silk's eyes suddenly lit up, and she squeezed her lips and smiled, "Thank you for reminding me. Su Si, let's go and have a look quickly!"
"You tease people again. Min Qingyi just looked at His Highness's coveted steamed crabs at this time, but he was afraid of the cold and couldn't eat them. Under his soft heart, he wanted to make a chrysanthemum cake to be happy to return. Not to mention the two of them, even the sisters may not have a share. They don't go and get up. Min Qingyi scolded her for turning around and crying. Seeing them go far away, Su Ge turned around and scolded them gently.
Su Xiu made a grimace and whispered, "It's just a joke. They haven't been cheated by me for the first time. How can they continue to be fooled?"
The two were talking and laughing when they heard the waiting chest cough and called, "Have you delivered something?"
Hearing the words, Su Xiu was shocked. Su Ge gave her an angry look and opened the door and said, "Yes, we were thinking not to disturb Your Highness's tracing red, so we didn't dare to send it in immediately."
"The Empress has asked Your Highness to stop for a rest now, just in time to show it to Your Highness." He went to the door and looked at the porcelain bottle and wooden box, and nodded.
The lapel was originally called Stack Green, which was originally called Diecui, and today's big maid entered the palace together. Because she had an old relationship with the lapel, she inquired some information for Mu Biwei. Mu Biwei entered the palace with different people. Although she was an official boudoir, only her nanny accompanied her, so she was supplemented by the number of waiters after Jin Fengxuan Hui. When measuring, he also named the Stacking Green, which was barely counted as knowing. Because the Stack Green was alert and calm, he was directly promoted to the Grand Palace Lady.
Suxiu Suge also knew what had happened, and they naturally had the envy of the lapel in the bottom of their hearts, but the lapel was slightly kissed by Mu Bi, and they did not dare to be jealous.
He held it up with a smile and said attentively, "Do you want us to help take it in?"
"It's okay." She took the porcelain bottle and felt heavy. Although it was okay to take the wooden box, it was unstable after all. She did not dare to fall the element that the inner secretary easily found to play for Princess Xiping. Hearing the words, she nodded and handed the porcelain bottle back to Suxiu.
The place where Princess Xiping learned calligraphy was Mu Biwei's own commonly used bookcase. Just outside the bedroom of Chenglian Hall, she went in with plain songs and plain embroidery. She saw that Princess Xiping had been taken away from the case by Mu Youniang and was moving to the north brocade couch to sit.
Mu's mother was investigated for the crime of inadeciating after Jiang Shunhua's difficult labor two years ago, because Mu Biwei asked Lei Mo to talk to Ji Shen. Mu was only unintentionally, and Jiang Shunhua also relied on her a lot during his death, so she went to Chenglian Hall to take care of Princess Xiping, but the position of Qingyi was taken away. But compared with being confiscated Yongxiang, I don't know what kind of funny and pleasant she is now, Mu Youniang is also lucky.
"Have you brought something here? It's also a coincidence." Mu Bi smiled and avoided the salute of the three people and ordered them to come closer.
After putting the things on the couch, Su Ge and Suxiu returned to the door and continued to guard, but she stayed. She was a great maid of honor. After all, she was more decent than Su Ge and others. She smiled and said, "Not only does your Highness remember the bottle you mentioned to Your Highness last time, but I also want to open your eyes, Empress Can you ask the maidservant to have a look here?"
"There is no one to chase you here." Mu Bi was slightly annoy with her and said to Mu's young lady, "The young lady went to get the Xinu."
Now it is the end of autumn, and ordinary people can't use Xinnu, but Princess Xiping is weak. Except for midsummer, she usually coughs when she drinks a little cold. Chenglian Hall is naturally ready at this time.
Princess Xiping is a very quiet child. She knows that Her Royal Highness is not talkative. She will be extremely curious about the next thing. She just put her hands on several sides and quietly look at the porcelain bottle.
Mu's mother brought the Sinu over, took her step forward to help her hand, and pulled out the Sinu's mouth together. Mu Biwei smiled and said, "Just pour hot water in it."
Mu Youniang slowly poured hot water into the porcelain bottle, but saw the water pouring water for a moment. The color of the frozen blue and white porcelain wall seemed to be much darker, and the white place gradually faded, as if it had been dyed with cyan. Princess Xiping suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Mu Biwei puzzled. Mu Biwei blinked at her, hee hee He smiled and said, "Come down and have a good look!"
Princess Xiping quickly turned her eyes back to the porcelain body when she heard the words, but saw that there were more and more cyan, and then a slightly deeper pattern appeared in the cyan - it looked like a wave of water, swinging out several circles. Mu Youniang poured the last bit of hot water into it, and saw that the two swimming fish originally only painted on the porcelain wall suddenly moved , swim happily!
"Ouch!" Although Princess Xiping doesn't like to talk, she can't help but light up and shout!
Next to Mu Yuni and the skirt were also discolored, and they couldn't take their eyes off their eyes, but they saw the two swimming fish playing with each other for a moment. As the water temperature in the bottle gradually dropped, the wall faded away, and the swimming fish also returned to its original position. The porcelain bottle returned to its original position, still like an ordinary porcelain bottle.
Princes Xiping looked up happily and asked, "Mother, what do these two fish do to move?" She is now said to be three years old. In fact, she is only two years old. Her milky voice is extremely lovely. Although Mu Biwei is a person who is very afraid of children's noise, Xiping has been quiet since she can speak. What's more, she has feelings after two years of raising her. At this time, she touched her head with love and said gently, "You see Aunt Mu Did you pour water into the bottle? That's hot water. This kind of bottle. Pour in hot water, and the fish will fly like before. When the water gets cold, the fish will not move!"
"Why do you need hot water?" Princess Xiping blinked her eyes and said doubtfully, "When I went to the palace, Aunt Shan took my son to see the fish in the mountain pool, which was similar to this, but when my son wanted to catch them, Aunt Shan said that the pool of water was too cold and told me not to approach them! There are no fish in those hot springs!"
Because Princess Xiping is weak, although she is not her own child, she also wants to do her best. What's more, she grew up since she grew up. Because of Shen Taijun's tolerance and enlightenment and Min Rugai's protection, she has not learned too much like those daughters of the family. Although she feels that the princess is not arrogant. The noble then indulged to the point where he knew nothing about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and knew nothing about poetry and songs, but it was enough to raise his body to seven or eight years old and choose a few more to learn casually - the royal family never expected to rely on the princess to become famous.
In fact, Mu Biwei herself did not learn until she was six or seven years old. Her maternal grandfather Min Rugai looked down on the so-called family's red tape. In addition, Mu Biwei's slightly like the Min family, now she looks like the wind blows down. Min Rugai cares much more about her martial arts than others. In Min Rugai's words, the original daughter of the pastoral family passed on to the beauty of the Min family, isn't she still worried about getting married? At worst, it's just to marry lower. Good body is the most important thing - this can't be said from Min Rugai, who lost his beloved daughter. Shen Taijun can't say anything wrong.
It's just that Mu Biwei doesn't look good, but it's really bad when she arrives in Xiping, so Mu Biwei has long planned to ask Xiping to delay learning for a while, so as not to hurt the gods - the direct daughter of the Mu family is not afraid of not being able to marry, and the royal princess is even more worried about the future. Mu Biwei is up to herself. I don't really pay attention to those talents.
She didn't want to be overshadowed by Sun this time. She had to teach Xiping at this time, but Xintai, who was a few hours younger than Xiping began to enlighten. After all, Xintai is Sun's biological child. Others want to say that she may not be able to stand for treating Xintai badly, but Mu Biwei's side is different. She bears Xin Xiping suddenly fell ill under enlightenment and wanted to send someone to Nesi to pick out more toys and coax Xiping to play when he was resting, so that he could recover.
This porcelain bottle was still accidentally heard by Shen Taijun, who came from a family, say that there was such a kind of porcelain bottle when Mu Biwei did not enter the palace. Shen Taijun's dowry had a pair. Seeing that she was interested and specially gave it to her, he accidentally told Xiping once. Xiping remembered it in his heart. This time, Mu Biwei sent someone to the inner department to ask for something, so she pointed out. Ask Nesi to find a similar bottle.
I didn't expect that the bottle was found, but Xiping asked a few questions after reading it, but Mu Biwei asked down...
.................................................................................................................
Well, Zhangshang, satisfy you, it's a tragic start.
It's only three years old! Two years old! It's time to start learning calligraphy, or cheating brush calligraphy... This is not learning to play, you have to write it well!
not only needs to be well written, but also has a nominal sister who is actually a few hours younger than herself and already has a little foundation as a control group!
As a little Lori, Xiping said that this is not an ordinary tragedy, and it is simply going to be magnificent!!
