Chapter 63
After a pillar of incense, a total of four sedan chairs were carried, the emperor's sedan chair that no one would mistakenly identify, the embroidered dragon fresh yellow brocade sedan body carried by thirty-two people, inlaid with countless jewels and jadeite, extremely luxurious, followed by sixteen people to carry two bright yellow brocade embroidered phoenix sedan chairs, it is estimated that it should be the queen mother and the queen's sedan chair, and finally a palace sedan chair carried by eight people, although not as luxurious and jeweled as the first three sedan chairs, but there is another elegance and pride.
Through the chanting of the master of ceremonies, all the people bowed their heads and knelt in greeting.
The Emperor stepped out of the sedan chair first, and looked around like all previous solemn scenes, looking at the kneeling people and the majestic and solemn buildings peculiar to the palace always stirred up a great pride in his heart. All these things belonged to him, and he did not just inherit these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains from his ancestors, but he prospered them, enriched them, allowed the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and the soldiers were able to faithfully defend the frontiers, and these were the merits of his rule.
He slowly looked around, and turned back to look at his mother, the virtuous queen, and the concubine. But he immediately turned away quickly, and looked at the crowd on the left leading to the main hall, and among the black-haired heads all over the ground, those eyes were fearless and joyless, but there was a faint arrogance.
"Your Majesty, it's time for us to go in. The Queen Mother reminded the emperor with a smile that she did not ignore the emperor's loss of consciousness at that moment.
"Niangniang, the great eunuch next to the emperor has come to summon the beauty to sleep tonight. Hongwa reported gloomily behind Xiao'er.
"Oh, that's good. "Hao'er looked at a book of poetry, in the early years, when Huo Ye taught her to read and write, he gave her the book of poetry, but later he was busy with business affairs, and never took the time to read it, and now he sits idle in the town, but it is a good time to look at these books.
"But you entered the palace on the same day as her, and your title is also above her, and the emperor didn't see you but saw her first. β
"What's there to worry about, who else dares to question him if the emperor means it, Hongwa, let me tell you, for things that we can't change, we have to accept it, and the degree of your acceptance determines whether your life is happy or not, so the more thoroughly you accept, the more kind you will treat yourself. "I turned the page, I should have read the Book of Poetry earlier, the words are beautiful, and the ups and downs are lingering. It's just that the expression of love is too naΓ―ve, and love will last forever until death?
"The two talented people who come to you on weekdays also rushed over, and I heard that the beauty is very good at being a person, and almost flattered all the people in the Danting Palace who can say two words. Hongwa was very unconvinced.
"Hongwa, do you know? Sometimes interests are more reliable than friendship, not to mention that I can't talk about friendship with two talented people. She put down the book, and since she had objections to what was written in the book, there was no need to read it for the time being.
"I know that Niangniang is just good with them on the surface, but in fact, she has no intention of being friends with them in her heart. Hongwa whispered and walked out slowly.
regret
Er was stunned, she had no intention of being friends with them, she had been in the shopping mall for a few years, she deeply understood how to be beneficial to herself, she didn't want to be jealous like Concubine Yu, Concubine Yu was protected by the emperor, she had just entered the palace, and she didn't know anyone who could talk in the palace. For the two talented people, although she doesn't want to offend, there is no need to be friends with them. It's just that she didn't expect Hongwa to see through it.
Hao'er slowly followed the red baby out of the Banghong Pavilion, the weather was good, and sure enough, there were people coming and going in the Diecui Zhai opposite, which was very lively.
"Hongwa, do you think we should go over and congratulate you?" asked Hao'er very seriously.
"Niangniang, are you crazy, did you let people see jokes in the past?" Hongwa glanced at her and smiled sadly, she knew that Hongwa was really good for her, so she was not displeased because of her tone.
"Among the people who entered the palace this time, you and Mingmei have the most hope of getting the emperor's favor, and now she is walking in front of you, and she is proud to death, do you want to congratulate her?"
"Red baby," she sighed, since she entered the palace and met this little red baby, the number of times she sighed was already the most in her life. "I don't have a grudge against Akemito, neither do you and her, we're just unfortunate enough to be women of the same man. Xiaohongwa may not understand, in her thoughts, she has become the emperor's woman, which is enough for all women to form a grudge.
","
"Hongwa, don't call me Niangniang in the future, my identity is just a nobleman. Hao'er interrupted Hongwa and said very seriously.
"But no one will say anything about noble people being called mothers. Hongwa insisted.
There is a rule in the palace, those who are sealed to the concubine can be called "Niangniang" in the name, but only the queen of the main palace in the court is called "Niangniang" by the people of the world, as for the concubine, it is also okay for nobles to be called Niangniang, but the name is not right.
"I just entered the palace, and I don't want to be taken advantage of by others because of a title, you know?" said Hao'er gently but firmly.
Hongwa doesn't understand, other women entered the palace, and changed their methods to make themselves ranked as mothers, but they didn't want it?
Looking at Hongwa's confused expression, Hao'er smiled faintly, and didn't plan to explain it anymore, she might not understand it if she explained.
Tong is the one who understands her, but it's a pity that she herself rejected that understanding, she and Tong are destined to be people of two worlds, and it is impossible to stay together forever, so there will be less involvement, less confidant, and it will not be uncomfortable when separated.
She has understood this truth since she was a child, it was taught to her by Master Huo, he is not close to his daughter, he is only obsessed with Mrs. Xiuxuan, is he originally planning to "live and die together" with Mrs.
Soon it will get dark,
After dark, the lanterns in the Danting Palace are everywhere, because today the Ming beauty is going to sleep, across a courtyard, the figures in the Stacked Cui Zhai are worshipped, and the heat is jubilant.
"Walking on the Stars"
"It seems that Mingmei's popularity is very good. "I accidentally passed by the door and saw the excitement on the other side, and I was moved.
"Actually, you can win people's hearts better than her," Hongwa was changing the cold tea on the table, and she didn't get along with Hao'er for a long time, but she could know that she liked hot tea in the house at any time.
"Oh?" whispered.
"Because you haven't been favored by the emperor yet, the future is the most unpredictable, and no one dares to really offend you before you make a conclusion. β
"Yes," as long as she has a heart, she can indeed gather people more than Mingmei, but Hongwa is wrong, she can't gather people's hearts, here there is only sympathy for the unfavored and jealousy for the favored, but even sympathy contains a kind of schadenfreude, and the people here don't have the heart to socialize.
"I have been in the palace for two years, and I have seen a lot of women who have gone from being favored to falling out of favor, there is a Korean beauty in Guanxia Palace, who once made the emperor so favored that he did not see other concubines, but when Concubine Yu entered the palace, she quickly fell out of favor. β
"Who is Guanxia Palace?"
"Cold Palace" Hongwa indifferently picked up the replaced teapot and walked away.
Yes, how can you forget that there must be a cold palace where the emperor lives, otherwise where should those women who have been favored by him but have become annoyed even to see each other go?
"The emperor has sent someone to pick up Ming Meiren. I don't know who shouted, and the entire Danting Palace was boiling.
Hao'er poured a cup of hot tea that Hongwa had just replaced, took a sip, and a vague smile bloomed faintly on the rim of the cup.
@@@@@@@@
"I heard," Hongwa stood at the table where Hao'er was writing, her face filled with an irrepressible joy, "The emperor is going to summon Huang Meiren to sleep tonight." β
Hao'er raised her eyebrows to look at her, according to Xiao Nizi's thoughts, the emperor summoned Huang Meiren to sleep tonight, even if she wasn't angry, she shouldn't be so happy!
"That means the emperor doesn't like Mingmei. β
"But didn't Ming Meiren get a lot of rewards from the emperor the morning before yesterday?" Although Xiao'er thinks that she is not stupid, she does not know a little more about the intricate interpersonal relationships and court rules in the court than others.
"That's what almost everyone who has slept with will get it every other day, which just means that the emperor is not dissatisfied, but it doesn't mean that he likes it. After Concubine Yu went to bed for the first time, the emperor did not summon anyone other than her for a month. Hongwa said plainly, but her cheeks were flushed with a shallow flush,
