Chonghua Palace.
The intoxicating aroma of agarwood wafts leisurely in the gilt enamel nine peach hollow small smoker, and there are ice basins in the four corners of the side hall, and the palace maids wearing emerald green thin shirts pour out the melted ice water from time to time and replace it with ice cubes, such extravagant behavior makes the spacious hall always keep cool and pleasant.
An Guifei sat lazily on the bamboo collapse, holding the palace fan with the ivory handle of the woven gold beauty in one hand, and playing with a black and transparent jade chess piece in the other hand.
There was a slight sound of footsteps outside the hall, and after a while, a dignified and delicate palace maid stepped in with a small tray.
"I've been going for so long" Concubine An glanced at the yellow ground and green carved lotus pattern bowl in the tray, and gently put down the fan in her hand, the sound was like a breeze, so unpleasant.
That palace maid was a big palace maid in Concubine An's palace, called Jinshu, who hesitated when she heard the words, and there was obviously a pause in her movements.
"The people in the imperial dining room have embarrassed you," An Guifei showed a mocking smile, and slowly wiped her hands with a wet handkerchief.
Jin Shu fell to his knees all of a sudden, kowtowed, and said: "It's useless to be a slave, it's too late to go, let the lotus heart in the palace of Concubine Shugui take the lead." ” "What the hell is going on, it's clear."
Jinshu didn't dare to hide it, and said truthfully: "According to the rules, the stoves of the masters of the concubines are not allowed to be misappropriated, but when I went to stew white fungus soup for the master today, I found that the master's stove was occupied, and the slave asked the lotus heart who was guarding the stove, she said that it was promised by the emperor, and the concubine was unwell, and the hospital prescribed a lot of medicines and supplements, and the emperor knew that he was allowed to take medicine with the concubine first."
The corners of Concubine An's eyes twitched, but her smile remained the same, she opened the bowl with one hand, and said with a smile: "How can this blame you, since the emperor has spoken, the palace can't do anything else, and you should do your best for Sister Shuguifei, you get up, you are tired of walking so far, and there is a cup of sour plum soup on the table to reward you." ” "Xie Niangniang."
Jin Shu gratefully went down with the sour plum soup.
When Concubine An was the only one left in the hall, the smile on her face slowly retracted, and she poured all the beautiful white fungus soup stewed in the bowl into the celadon spit at her feet with an expressionless face, and then wiped her hands again as if disgusted, and slowly stood up.
"Do you still want the palace to be restrained, look, the palace's forbearance doesn't seem to be able to make that slut rein in a little bit, if you don't do it, the emperor has never set foot in Chonghua Palace for half a month, and the news of Concubine An's fall from grace will spread all over the deep palace."
The next moment, behind the heavy palace curtains, a lady in charge came out, curtsy to Concubine An, her face was still flat, and said: "Concubine Niangniang, why do you have to worry so much about a concubine, although the emperor tried his best to make an exception to promote him to a concubine, but this is also a top priority." ” "Over the years, I haven't comforted myself like this, but this is self-deception, do you know, the emperor was suppressed by the queen when he was the prince, and it was rare for women to be the same as him, and he was not a concubine, how much grace was given to the one in Yuqing Palace, if it wasn't for the mother who arranged for you to enter the palace, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to keep Jing'er" "Niangniang, even if it is for the sake of the four princes, you have to endure it, the one in Yuqing Palace looks at the current scenery, in fact, everything is empty, her body was put under the frost grass by her grandmother in the boudoir, the old lady inquired clearly, it was from the time of the moon letter to the future, and it was five years since she entered the palace, and she didn't want to give birth to a child because she was a fairy, and what would she fight with you if she didn't have a son."
An Guifei was distraught and picked up the fan again, and said hatefully: "You are confused, the son born to her sister-in-law, the emperor has already passed to her name, and the jade is her biological son, back then, I was afraid that so many hands reached over and did not let the child die, I was worried that there was a shadow of the emperor behind me, so I didn't dare to make a move, I knew that now the evil seed would cause so much trouble to Jing'er, and I had to do it when I was desperate to demote and fall out of favor." ” Aunt Yu, who was arranged by Shi's family, smiled and said: "As long as it doesn't crawl out of her intestines, then there is a hole to drill, and there is really no need to do it now, the concubine is the concubine, and when she entered the palace, she relied on the emperor's favor and still didn't get rid of that little family spirit, thinking that she could do whatever she wanted by dominating the emperor, but I don't know that the more she is like this, the more the five princes will be dragged down outside." ” An Guifei is also a thoughtful person, just now the fire of this half moon suddenly surged up, and the people who saw her mother's arrangement were a little forgetful, and at this time she had already returned to the appearance of the only palace concubine who could compete with Concubine Shu, her eyes lit up, and she said, "You mean" The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the situation was very good, and my face became more and more ruddy.
Aunt Yu was also happy when she saw that her master had regained her fighting spirit, and after thinking about it, she approached and whispered in Concubine An's ear: "Niangniang, the old lady brought in a letter, so that you must win over the Cheng family for His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, the Jiang family has been moving frequently recently, and the Jiang family and the Cheng family are in-laws, in case the Cheng Guogong Mansion falls to the faction of the five princes, it will be very bad." ” Concubine An Guifei played with the chess pieces made of black jade in her hand, thinking that this was given by the emperor when she first entered the palace, her eyes couldn't help but be a little obscure, she frowned when she heard the words, and said: "It's not impossible, the last time the emperor showed that kind of meaning, I called a few girls in the family to take a look, the daughter of the third brother's family is a good color, and the identity is enough, and the old 2 of the Cheng family is good to be an old husband and a young wife, which is painful."
She looked up at Aunt Yu, who was not surprised at all, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Mother thinks so too." ” Aunt Yu saluted with a smile and praised: "Niangniang is really smart and smart, that's the reason."
As the saying goes, the daughter who gets married spills out of the water, how can this woman go out to enter the door and have a daughter-in-law, the second master of the Cheng family, a martial artist, who has such a little wife, must be a thousand pets, where will not be to our Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. ” "It's that Sister Zhu is still too young, only twelve years old, I'm afraid the emperor will not give marriage, and the Jiang family will not think of this, although the old lady of the Jiang family does not want to see Concubine Shu, but she must do her best for the son left by her dead daughter, what if she finds a daughter in the clan to marry Cheng Erye first" An Guifei threw down the chess piece and let it roll to the ground and stain the dust.
"Niangniang, you forgot the one from Cining Palace."
Aunt Yu reminded.
"Yes."
An Guifei clapped her hands with a smile, and said: "The Queen Mother doesn't have many days left, and when the time comes, it will be national filial piety, which is not right." ” After solving the depression in her heart for so many days, Concubine An Guifei suddenly relaxed, and said with a smile: "Then I have to remind my mother first, and marry a few school-age girls in the family, and marrying it is more or less a help, but don't drag it until the national filial piety is dragged into an old girl." ” Yu's mother was relieved: "Don't worry, the old lady has been looking at each other for a long time, and she can't make a mistake." ” "And recently, hasn't the Jiang family attracted a lot of greed in the name of finding a side concubine for the fifth prince, it seems that you have to think of it to the emperor to know" An Guifei raised her hand and touched her still smooth cheeks, with a charming smile on her face, it was time to go to Yuqing Palace to visit the sick and delicate "sister", "Come on, this palace wants to bathe." ” The palace maids outside the hall went down to prepare.
The sewing room at home is really very powerful, not many days later, the size of the maid in the garden of Deyuan put on a new summer shirt, the big girl is water blue, the second-class maid is lake green, the third-class is apricot yellow, the rest of the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law are not fixed, the main thing is not feasible, you let primary school students and junior high school students wear school uniforms are OK, high school students are barely okay, but college students who are still willing to wear school uniforms, since they hope to show their economic strength and social status from the dress to cough cough, pull away.
In the blue yarn cupboard, Du Shi is sitting with Yuzhu doing needlework, the curtain hook on the curtain frame is slender and exquisite, properly hooking the light and soft light yarn, the silk ring is finely carved, the lattice fan is filled with a thin and seemingly transparent Suzhou embroidery five beautiful pictures, plus the two women sitting quietly doing needlework, it is just like in the painting, and the maids who come and go to serve tea and fan unconsciously lighten their pace, lest they disturb this scene.
"How did the second sister be so skillful, my sister-in-law still boasts of her outstanding craftsmanship, and now I have to admit that I am clumsy."
Du Shi smiled bitterly and picked up the peony picture embroidered by the two and put it in one place, comparing the left and right, it seems that the embroidery of Yuzhu is bright and aura, and the peony seems to be able to smell the fragrance, which is really ingenious and amazing.
"Sister-in-law, don't praise me, my sister didn't like to learn to waste her eyes when she was young, but she was really strict with her mother's supervision, and then she met a famous teacher, so she was lucky."
Yuzhu was still very modest when he should be modest, and his white hands were waved again and again.
"Sister Zhu, what's so embarrassing, embroidery is good, I'm afraid that my sister-in-law will ask you about the embroidery method" Yuzhu was slightly stunned, and suddenly saw Yulan walking in from outside with a smile, followed by two maids carrying embroidery frames.
Yulan sat down slowly, sorted out the embroidery frame that the maid put down, and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law and sister don't call me when they do embroidery work, although my embroidery work is not as good as Sister Zhu's, I can still handle it, and I don't have to dislike it like this." ” Du Shi looked at Yuzhu's face embarrassedly, and said with a smile: "Sister, don't be joking." ” "Sister Lan is so sour when she comes, since you are here, let's do the work together, embroidery is not with your mouth."
Yuzhu saw that Du Shi didn't know how to answer, so she knew that she hadn't figured out Yulan's temperament, so she was a little at a loss, and she really couldn't look past it, so she spoke out to relieve the siege.
This sister is really a mallet, although she was honest for a while some time ago, but I don't know what was picked up by red beans last time, and there is a faint relapse of the old state. gd1806102:
