Chapter 34: The Price (3)
(Go to the net.)
It's early summer, and the garden is full of flowers, purple and red, and the breeze is coming, sending bursts of floral fragrance. Go and see the net. If it is usual, it is a pleasure to enjoy the beautiful scenery in this Cuiwei Pavilion. It's just that today I have no time to watch, sitting upright on the cushion, maintaining a smile without leaking teeth, and I dare not make a mistake at all.
"Priest-sama, how long has it been now?" Holding one position for a long time made me miserable, and even the muscles in my face felt stiff. I really couldn't help it, so I could only hope that the old-fashioned priest would be gracious.
"Don't be busy, mother, it's only been half an hour yet, and you need to be patient for a while. The old priest with a white beard paced to and fro beside me, listened to me, and slowly wandered to the sundial beside him, squinting his eyes, and Mance spoke to me in an orderly manner.
I suddenly felt a darkness in front of my eyes, and I had tried so hard to persevere, but it was only less than half the time, and if I really waited until I really got through this hour, I would not have to die of exhaustion?
"My lord, you see that Hongu has just started to learn to sit today, can you be a little more accommodating and sit for half an hour first?" I begged him for mercy while supporting my crumbling body. is a dignified queen, and if she does this, she can be regarded as losing all the face of the queen.
It is said that the priests of the celebrant are the most rigid group of courtiers, and that is true, and the reason why these people can sit in their current position is because of their rigid and dogmatic obedience to the complicated and lengthy number of ceremonial festivals. If it were someone else, he might have softened his heart and agreed to me, but the adult in front of me obviously wouldn't be as easy to talk as I imagined.
"Niangniang's hard work, Weichen knows very well, it's just that courtesy, righteousness and shame are related to the face of my Dacheng court, and the queen is now in a high position, how can she not set an example for the subjects of the world. If Weichen agrees to Niangniang this time, Weichen is only afraid that he will not be able to explain to the emperor in the future!"
This old man was so clever that he even asked Zhize to move out, but he had no choice but to hold on. Just when the interest was a little low, the straight waist could not help but bend a little in discouragement, and the old man immediately knocked on the table in front of me with the ring ruler in his hand, and I quickly sat up straight again. East#Fang#Net
There was a crisp and pleasant bird's cry in my ears, which sounded like a lark, and the pleasant singing voice made people feel more comfortable to listen to. Alas, the birds are still free to sing and flutter outside, and here I am to be oppressed by this old man.
On the side of the rockery outside the pavilion, a head suddenly flashed, such as a swallow tiptoed over, seeing my sad face but still trying to pretend to be energetic, she couldn't help but cover her mouth with a handkerchief, and a pair of almond eyes bent into two crescents.
"Help me!" I opened my mouth wide to ask her for help, although I didn't make a sound, just lip-syncing, Ruyan understood it, hurriedly straightened her demeanor, walked lightly to the pavilion, and coughed lightly.
"What's the matter with the girl?" The old man was obviously distracted just now, until Ruyan coughed twice, then he suddenly woke up and stepped forward to greet him.
"Lord Qiqi Priest, the emperor has a decree, Xuan Empress Niang goes to the Qinzheng Palace, and there is something to discuss. "Ruyan really lives up to the trust, and her ability to make up lies is very high-level.
"However, the old man is now teaching his mother..."The old man was very stubborn, and just turned around and was about to refute, but he accidentally bumped into my lazy waist, and an old face with ravines and ravines immediately turned purple.
It's over, it's over, I didn't think that I was caught just about to be lazy for a while, I couldn't help but stick out my tongue, and quickly returned to the sitting position just now.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was embarrassing, Ruyan hurriedly stepped forward to play a round and said with a smile: "The emperor said, Niangniang will learn today's etiquette class here first, and then learn it tomorrow." ”
Although this old man was cross, the emperor's face had to be given, so he had to nod reluctantly, and sighed in a troubled manner, I was as hopeless as a young man who had lost his footing.
I don't have time to care about this, I'm just afraid that he will suddenly change his hexagram again, so I hurriedly got up and said thank you for your advice, and pulled Ruyan to prepare to slip away.
"Wait!" Before I had taken a few steps, I heard the old and stern voice explode behind me again, and Ruyan and I were startled at the same time, this old man must have noticed something, right?
"My lord, do you have anything else?" After a while, I turned my head with a twist of my stiff neck, and asked him with trembling what other instructions he had, fearing that this tough old man would go to Zhize to ask what was going on, and dismantle Ruyan's lie.
"Hand!" The old man didn't care about me, pointed at the tangled palm of me and Ruyan with a trembling finger, and reprimanded Ruyan with a dark face: "A little palace person, actually pulling and pulling with the queen mother, what kind of system!"
It turned out that because of this, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, hurriedly let go of my hand, and apologized to the old master with a smiling face.
Walking slowly and gracefully with a straight face, I walked gracefully out of the imperial garden, and as soon as I left the old man's sight, I couldn't hold back a laugh, nothing is more important than freedom. "It's so comfortable!" I sighed as I breathed in the fresh air.
"Come on, mother, kill the slave and maid in the future, and the slave and maid will not dare to help you lie anymore. "In comparison, Ruyan's interest is not as high as mine, and it is also just a fake transmission of the holy decree, and she was scolded for no reason, which is not worth it.
"You guys go back first, this palace is accompanied by Ruyan, don't worry. With a wave of my hand, I sent away the group of palace ladies who were waiting in front of the door. Seeing that there was no one else around, he turned to smile and comfort Ruyan and said, "Okay, okay, thank you from this palace?" In view of your excellent performance today, this palace rewards you with being able to go out of the palace for three days this month, okay?"
Unless it is a very special situation, the palace maids rarely get the opportunity to leave the palace, I originally thought that the price I offered was already very tempting, but Ruyan actually refused without hesitation.
"Niangniang's slave maid is wrong, the slave maid knows that it is wrong, the slave maid should not be deceiving people with you today, if Niangniang is not polite in the future, the emperor will definitely condemn me. ”
"How is that possible?" I smiled in my heart, waved my hand nonchalantly, and said with a big grin: "Don't worry, even if the sky falls, and I will give you a top, you are my good sister, how can I bear to let you suffer, don't you say?"
Ruyan just looked at me blankly, and couldn't hold back her laughter for a long time. "Niangniang, the slave maid can understand it, these days the adults of the celebrant have taught you in vain. ”
"What's wrong?" I looked at Ruyan, who was smiling breathlessly, and felt inexplicable.
"I forgot about it so quickly," Ruyan looked at me playfully and said, "How many times have you said it, it's better for you to call yourself in the future without me, me, and me, and use this palace." ”
"What kind of palace, so rapping, it's really not as simple as what I came. "I can't imagine that this old problem just can't be changed, and when it was pointed out by Ruyan on the spot, I couldn't help but be embarrassed and pleaded a few words for myself.
"That's different," Ruyan listened, immediately restrained her smile, looked at me seriously, and said: "You are now the queen, naturally you must have the demeanor of a queen, and you can't be sloppy in your title." If you really feel embarrassed, then use the mourning family. ”
"Still mourning the family!" I disagreed with Ruyan's suggestion 100%, and shook my head again and again: "How old am I, I call myself a mourning family, and those who don't know think I'm an old woman!"
I noticed that Ruyan looked at me a little strangely, so I suddenly came to my senses, patted my head and changed my words bitterly: "Yes, yes, wrong again, I don't know and I think this palace is an old woman!" Isn't it just a title, as for making trouble to this point?
"Ruyan Bucai, I have learned the demeanor of the three queen mothers, to be honest, you and those two mothers are really very different. Chunyu shook her head helplessly with a smile, I knew that the other two queen mothers she was talking about were Empress Xiao and Chu Jinglan, and hurriedly asked her what was the difference.
Ruyan tilted her head, thought for a while and said: "Although Empress Xiao and Empress Chu have very different tempers, they both abide by their duties and etiquette, and they have never done anything transgressive..."
"What's the matter, why am I not keeping my duty? You're hurting me!" This sounded very unpleasant, and I couldn't help but poke Ruyan's forehead.
"Slave and maid should die, slave and maid should die, slave and maid definitely don't mean that," I pretended to be annoyed and frightened Ruyan, hurriedly waved my hand, and spoke quickly. "The slave maid is saying that the mother is more cheerful and lively, and there is no arrogance in treating people, and it is no wonder that His Majesty loves the mother so much, it must be the nature of the mother to attract love. ”
"Well, that's pretty much it. After hearing a few words of praise from Ruyan, she couldn't help but flutter, and then asked her what Zhize was doing now.
"The emperor is now meeting guests in the Qinzheng Palace. Ruyan replied.
"Who is it?" I asked curiously.
"It's a princess, I heard that it's the Third Highness..."
"Wanyun!" I immediately came to my senses, when Yuan Zhixun imprisoned me in the palace earlier, presumably her situation was not much better, after Zhize came back, I have been busy with him, and I have no free time, I have long missed her.
Seeing that I was about to rush over, Ruyan hurriedly dissuaded me and said, "Niangniang! Niangniang! You can't go, you really can't go." ”
"Why?" the monk of my second brother was confused.
Ruyan looked at me cautiously and said in a low voice: "When the princess Niangniang came, the emperor originally asked the slave maid to invite the maid to come over, but when I heard that the maid is now learning etiquette, the emperor changed his words. ”
Ruyan's words made me like a deflated ball, I wanted to see Wanyun but couldn't, and I didn't want to go back to learn etiquette. "So what are we going to do next?" I spread my hands and looked at Ruyan.
Ruyan frowned, then stretched out, and said with a smile: "Niangniang has been in the palace for so long, and she hasn't been in the palace for a walk, how about the slave maid accompany Niangniang to walk in the palace today?"
"Great idea!" I snapped my fingers and nodded in agreement.
