The carriage entered the imperial city unhindered, then to the palace, and finally stopped in front of a large courtyard.Yan Meng noticed that the carriage had stopped, and was about to lift the curtain to look outside, when he heard the voice of the father-in-law outside, "Miss Yan Meng, the Shangyi Bureau has arrived, please get out of the carriage." ”When Yan Meng heard this, he hurriedly raised his hand to touch his hair to see if it was messy, and smoothed the folds that came out of his clothes, and then got out of the carriage.She now represents Miss, and she can't lose Miss's face.There was already a grandmother in a black palace dress waiting at the door of the Shangyi Bureau, and when she saw Wu Huan, she suddenly walked over with a smile on her face, "I've seen Wu Huan's father-in-law," and looked at Yan Meng who was standing behind Wu Huan, "This is the Yan Meng girl from Tianyi Pavilion who His Royal Highness explained to help, she looks like a real sign." ”Wuhuan turned around and saw Yan Meng's dazed appearance, and hurriedly said to her: "Miss Yan Meng, this is the head of the Shangyi Bureau, just call her Aunt Zhen." ”Yan Meng hurriedly blessed the other party, "Aunt Zhen." ”Fu Zhen stretched out his hand to help the person up enthusiastically, and said to Wu Huan: "Please rest assured that Wu Huan's father-in-law will take good care of Miss Yanmeng in the Shangyi Bureau." ”Wu Huan smiled when he heard this, "Then the miscellaneous family went back to report to His Highness."
Dream girl, farewell. ”Seeing the carriage in front of him and a long line of palace people leaving, Fu Zhen took Yan Meng's hand, "Miss Yan Meng, I'll take you to the residence first, and if you are not satisfied, you will say it."
This Shangyi Bureau said that it is not big, but it is not small, and when you finish reading the residence, I will take you around, recognize the place, and the place where your Royal Highness and Miss Weisan sew wedding dresses is in the innermost, and we don't usually go to the periphery.If the girl needs anything, just tell the little eunuch who is waiting inside. ”Saying that, the two had already stepped into the gate of the Shangyi Bureau, and when they entered, there was a long corridor, and they didn't see a palace until they reached the end."
This hall is used to sew wedding dresses, and behind it is the residence arranged for Miss Yanmeng."
Bypassing the main hall, I saw some courtyards, some with open doors, some closed, until they reached a quiet courtyard, Fu Zhen stopped, stretched out his hand and pushed open the gate of the courtyard, "This courtyard is quiet, and a little elegant, Miss Yanmeng has lived in this courtyard during this time." ”After putting away the luggage and going around the courtyard again, Fu Zhen led Yan Meng to go outside for a turn, and then said, "Let's go to the main hall now, the embroidery girl and the clothes are there, you will work together for three months in the future, and you will get to know each other first." ”Pushing open the door of the main hall, there are many people inside, but it is quiet, the person in charge of embroidery is embroidering on the side, the dressmaker is cutting the fabric on the side, and the cloth is moving the fabric to do all kinds of chores, everyone is busy with their own things in an orderly manner, everything seems to be in order.It wasn't until he entered here that Yan Meng first felt the hierarchy in the palace.The real aunt beside her is the head of this palace.Those Xiu Niang and clothes who can be sent to sew the emperor's wedding dress are second-class, and those who can only move things and deliver things in the palace can only be regarded as third-class.And the ones she saw outside just now had to go to the back.The second is to sew clothes for the concubines in the palace, the second is to sew official clothes for the ministers and the wives, and the lowest is to sew clothes for the palace eunuchs and palace maids.And the clothes they wear can also tell the rank of each person.Fu Zhen clapped his hands at the busy crowd, and suddenly whatever it would be, he trotted over and stood up.Qi Qi Fushen, "True Aunt." ”Fu Zhen took Yanmeng's hand, "This is Yanmeng girl, who was specially sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to design a wedding dress for Miss Wei San, Chanjuan, in the future, the two of you will have to discuss more with each other, and come forward to recognize people first." ”As soon as she said this, the woman in the light green palace dress standing at the front took two steps forward and lowered her head slightly, "Yes." ”Then he raised his head and smiled kindly at Yan Meng, "Miss Yan Meng, just call me Chanjuan in the future." ”Although he said this, there was a subtle scrutiny in his eyes.Sewing wedding dresses for the emperor and queen can be said to be the supreme glory of these Shangyi Bureau palace people, and they naturally can't welcome such a person who suddenly has an extra person.But they also knew that this was the person next to the future queen, so they naturally pretended to be enthusiastic.Fu Zhen naturally saw the reluctance in the eyes of Chanjuan and the people behind her, but she couldn't see it.The people who can climb to this point in this palace are the human spirits within the human spirits, and she doesn't need to remind her of anything.True enthusiasm or fake enthusiasm, as long as you don't cause trouble, then everything will be fine.Fu Zhen sent Yan Meng over to ask her to leave, Chanjuan saw this and hurriedly stopped the person, "Aunt Zhen, the fabrics for the wedding dress are all ready, I don't know when we will go to the Yaoguo Mansion to measure the size of Miss Weisan's clothes?"
”"Tomorrow morning, then?
Go for yourself. ”Chanjuan was overjoyed, and was about to respond, when she heard the Yanmeng girl next to her speak, "That, most of the clothes worn by Miss are designed and sewn by me, and I have Miss Size, do I need to find Miss again?"
”Chanjuan's face suddenly stiffened when she was halfway through laughter.smiled and gritted his teeth, "There is Miss Yanmeng, but I don't need it, please report the size to me one by one." ”Wuhuan returned to the temple.Zong Xu was sitting behind the table and watching the folds, and he didn't raise his head when he heard the footsteps, "Someone received it?"
”"Back to His Royal Highness, Miss Yanmeng has arrived at the Shangyi Bureau, and she was picked up by Aunt Zhen, the head of the Shangyi Bureau.""
Okay, these days when she's in the palace, you take care of it more, don't let people have accidents."
If the people in his family are not protected, he is afraid that he will be finished.Wu Huan's heart sank, "The slave obeys the order, and will definitely protect the girl who is not hurt in the slightest in these three months." ”Zong Xu finally got up after reviewing the folds in his hand, "Let's go, follow me to the Qiandian to meet the emperor." ”As the Chinese New Year approached, Emperor Mingde's health was better than usual.Zong Xu hesitated, but he didn't tell him about the fact that King Xian was dying.When Zong Xu took Wuhuan over, Emperor Mingde was in good spirits, standing in front of the window and painting.Seeing Zong Xu coming, he beckoned directly to him, "Prince, come, let's see how I painted this picture?"
”Zong Xu wanted to salute, but when he saw this, he put down his hand again, and walked directly over to carefully study the painting on the table.Emperor Mingde couldn't wait to ask, "What do you think?"
”Zong Xu tilted his head to look at him, "Does Father want to hear the truth or lies?"
”Emperor Mingde's face darkened, "As soon as you say this, I have a bad premonition." ”After a pause, "You'd better tell a lie first." ”"Father, this painting is excellent."
Emperor Mingde waited and waited and didn't wait for the compliment from behind, and blew his beard angrily, "What about the truth?"
”"The painting skills are mediocre, the pen power is vain, seven points of craftsmanship, and the other three points have some brilliance, but they still need to be carved."
Emperor Mingde almost vomited out a mouthful of old blood.Is his drawing really so bad?"
You're amazing, you're going to draw one?"
Zong Xu really took the brush in his hand, took away the one drawn by Emperor Mingde in front of him, and spread a new layer of paper, without much hesitation, the tip of the pen fell on the paper.Same composition, same color.A quarter of an hour later, Zong Xu raised his hand to put down his pen, and called Duan Zhong and Wuhuan over, and asked the two of them to pick up the two paintings respectively, one left and one right, "Father, this is the gap." ”Emperor Mingde looked at what Zong Xu painted, and then looked at what he painted, and had to admit that there was indeed a big gap.To put it mildly, when the two paintings are compared, the one he painted is really nothing.After being speechless for a moment, he snorted softly and asked Duan Zhong to put away his painting, and then pointed to the one painted by Zong Xu, "This one is framed by me." ”As he listened to the busy business, the father and son sat on the coffee table next to them and tasted tea."
Is the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet all arranged?""
Hmm."
Emperor Mingde glanced at Zong Xu, who was quietly drinking tea with his eyes down, and was silent for a moment before he said: "That day, I went to show my face and eat a glass of wine and came back, and I couldn't sit still when I was old."
As for the queen, let her continue to lie down. ”"Even if the father doesn't say it, the son won't let the queen attend.""
You" Emperor Mingde wanted to say something and endured it, paused and said weakly, "What about after your enthronement ceremony?"
”"There can be a emperor in this palace, and there can be a concubine, but there will be no queen mother."
After Zong Xu said this, he drank the tea in the cup and got up and left.Emperor Mingde looked at the empty seat opposite and sat alone for a while.Maybe he is really old, otherwise why do he always dream of his young self and the Ling Shuiji who is alluring the country and the city.Now I see her pouring tea for herself?"
Your Majesty, now there is another way to frame the painting on the side of the craftsman, covering it with a layer of glass and framing it with a wooden frame, where do you think it should be hung?"
”Emperor Mingde was stunned for a moment before he reacted, "Just hang it by the window where Prince Fang Cai painted." ”After hanging up with all his loyalty, he got up and walked to the front of the framed words, separated by a layer of transparent glass, the painting is an elegant courtyard surrounded by water, with small bridges and flowing water, falling flowers and colorful, quiet and beautiful.When you get closer, you can even feel the water vapor pavement, sparkling in front of you, with fragrant petals pouring out of the painting.Miraculous.This is the courtyard where Ling Shuiji lived back then.
