Hua Langying was also a little stunned when she received the decree of Jin Feng, Didn't the emperor say that he wanted to make Feng Guifei a concubine, and this really made her a concubine?

She stood up with the holy decree in her hand, and the female eunuchs in the palace all knelt down in unison: "Slaves see Concubine De Niangniang, Concubine De Niangniang Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

In the palace system of this dynasty, only four concubines and above can be called "Chitose", while Mrs. and ordinary concubines from the second rank cannot be called Chitose.

The four concubines are equivalent to the side rooms of the people, and the "three wives" in the "three wives and four concubines" refer to the "concubine wife, partial wife, and lower wife", and the four concubines also belong to the "side wife or lower wife", and the concubine can be equivalent to the "flat wife". The imperial concubine is generally not set up, and there is no queen when there is an imperial concubine, which is actually equal to a "wife".

Of course, in terms of the ancient monogamy and polygamy system, it can be regarded as a "concubine", and there have been many explanations for thousands of years, and the word "wife" may not be a wife. For example, "Eighty-one Royal Wife", that is the concubine of the concubines. There are too many meanings of Chinese characters, depending on the context in which they are used.

The flower shadow made everyone even, and let Ruozhu and Xiaoshunzi arrange to see it.

Gao Lianxi reminded with a smile: "Concubine De, the slave will serve you to change your clothes and make up." ”

After Hua Rongying changed into Concubine De's grade makeup dress, she was about to go to thank her, but the emperor himself came.

"The concubines see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!"

Hua Langying led the servants and servants of Yuehua Palace to salute, and thanked him in his mouth, and bowed, the ancients valued this kind of etiquette, and Hua Langying was also used to it in the harem.

Xuanyuan Ling Heng personally helped her up, and said with a smile: "Concubine Ai, please get up." ”

The two emperors and concubines sat down together, and Xuanyuan Ling Heng saw that she was wearing a luxurious hairpin dress, and her originally slightly immature appearance was a little mature, and it was difficult to describe her beauty.

Xuanyuan Ling Heng held her hand and said, "Concubine Ai is happy today, what do you want to thank me?"

Hua Rongying said with a smile: "The emperor is rich all over the world, how can a concubine such a broken household prepare a generous gift that the emperor is satisfied with?"

Xuanyuan Lingheng said: "This stingy temperament is the same everywhere. ”

Hua Langying snuggled in his arms, lightly pressed his hand on his chest, and said, "The concubines are all from the emperor, let alone things." What does the emperor like in the treasury of the concubines, he takes it himself, why do you need to give a special gift?"

He looks like a beautiful flower, with affection, hugging people's ears and grinding sideburns.

"Concubine Ai is always satisfied today, right?"

Hua Rongying said: "The concubine is also very happy to see the emperor, I haven't seen the emperor smile like this for a long time." ”

Xuanyuan Ling Heng sighed: "You are so stubborn, let me worry, how can I laugh?"

"Where are the concubines?"

"Anyway, you got what you wanted. Don't be too ambitious and want to pick up the stars in the sky......"

"The concubines can't be picked, the emperor is tall and helps the concubines. ”

Xuanyuan Ling Heng let out a long sigh: "Isn't it enough for me to help you? You haven't had an imperial heir yet, and you have been in the palace for less than a year to be crowned as the fourth concubine, which is already the extreme." ”

Hua Langying also knew that this was the truth, and said: "The concubine will probably be able to give birth to a child for His Majesty in two years." ”

Xuanyuan Ling Heng smiled slightly and said, "You are such a naughty and naughty mother, I don't know what kind of naughty child you will give birth to." ”

"The concubines are really stubborn, and Your Majesty is wise and martial, and the child is like Your Majesty. ”

Xuanyuan Ling Heng closed his eyes and said, "So...... Very good. ”

Hua Langying looked at him as handsome as jade, his eyelashes were long and neat with his eyes closed, and he stretched his neck and kissed him on the cheek. He suddenly opened his eyes, with starlight in his eyes, and said with a light smile: "Naughty." ”

Hua Langying secretly thought: This man is really awkward, he wants it in his heart, but he doesn't want it, and it's not the first time.

She was also wearing a hairpin gown, and she was not so comfortable in the movement, and she got up from his arms and had to change her clothes. Xuanyuan Ling Heng said with a smile: "Seeing that the palace banquet is going to be held at night, what are you doing changing clothes?"

The Lantern Festival Palace banquet was placed in the Zichen Hall of Daming Palace, and the main hall and side halls were crowded with the nobles of the Zhongdu Clan, the ministers of civil and military affairs and their families.

There are many people attending the banquet, and there are seats above the harem concubines, and they are arranged according to the size of the grade, and those who have no grace below the concubine position are only the servants, for example, Zhen Shuyi did not have the emperor's grace, so she stood behind.

The emperor and queen sat on the top of the chief, because Concubine Hui was still in confinement, the seat on the left was Concubine Wei Guifei and Concubine Li Xian, and the seat on the right was Concubine Yang Shu and Concubine Hua De.

The emperor let the dignitaries toast together, the ministers sang praises, and the monarchs and ministers got along.

When the dishes are served, the dance music in the center is played, and the atmosphere is lively and prosperous.

Fu Qiuli got a "standing ticket", and she was inevitably depressed, since she came back from the Western Capital, it has been more than two months, and the emperor has never spoiled her.

The fifteenth day of the emperor's first month must be at the queen's, and Wei Guifei has two days a month, Feng Guifei gave birth to a prince, and the emperor will also go to Ruihua Palace, but he will not stay overnight, and most of the rest of the time, the emperor actually went to Yuehua Palace.

Fu Qiuli saw her grandparents, father, and brother, standing in the corner, and she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart.

After the banquet, go to the high place of the south city tower to see the fireworks, the people under the city tower are like weaving, the merchants are dense, and the river lights are lit under the Jinshui Bridge.

There was a sudden bang on the castle tower, but when I saw a firework, it bloomed from the sky, like a dream.

is so prosperous like last night, looking at the vast galaxy of the universe from afar, the flowers and shadows are actually stupid.

Suddenly, a chirping sound was heard, and a bird flew in fright, and the breath fell on the shoulder of the flower shadow. Flower Shadow stretched out her hand, and the bird leaped into her palm, which was a lovely blue and yellow thrush. Hua Langying laughed in a low voice: "How did you come here, there are so many people here, and you are not afraid of being caught." ”

The harem life is boring, since the arrival of this bird, she has been relieved of a lot of loneliness, and Yang Shufei next to her smiled: "Sister Concubine De actually has such a cute bird." ”

Hua Langying smiled: "I also got it by chance, this bird has spirituality and is not afraid of people." ”

Hua Langying does not have a deep friendship with concubines, but she is still polite when she sees people on weekdays, and when she sees that Yang Shufei wants to reach out and touch her, she does not refuse. But the bird flew up with its little paws, and she thought about the many fireworks today, and she should not be frightened, or be caught by someone to roast them.

She chased forward, and the concubines didn't feel at ease when they looked at her, but they saw that the emperor was accompanied by the king of Xiping County, Zhang Taifu, and Zhenguo Gong at this time, and their minds were still with the emperor.

Hua Langying saw that the thrush fell into the hands of the man in the white python suit in January, but he saw that his face was as handsome as water, and his facial features were not as outstanding as they were, but together they were as elegant as an ink painting.

Hua Langying had never seen this person at the palace banquet, but when he saw the five-clawed python dragon on his python suit, he also knew that the other party's identity was extraordinary. is different from the Qing Dynasty TV series, where only the emperor wears a five-clawed dragon, in fact, if the Ming Dynasty heroes can wear clothes, the python on the clothes is five-clawed.

The same is true of the Dayuan Dynasty, such as Wei Wuji and Xie Zhixiao's uniforms are all five-clawed pythons, which are extraordinary.

The man couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Hua Langying, but when he saw her clothes, he smiled and said, "See Concubine De Niangniang." ”

Hua Langying said secretly: This person is really not simple, I have never seen her, and I can guess who she is.

Hua Rongying said: "Excuse me, Your Excellency will return the bird to me." ”

The man said: "This bird is raised in Xia, and it has been lost recently, and it is being looked for in Xia, is it in the hands of Concubine De Niangniang?"

Hua Langying said, "You are the owner of the bird?"

The man nodded and said, "Seven years ago, I was seriously injured in Xia, and I need to recuperate in Lingnan and not suffer from the cold." There are strangers in Lingnan who are proficient in bird language, and domesticated birds are spiritual. The lower body is not easy to move, but the mouth can still move, three years in Lingnan to recuperate, and I learned some fur from the stranger when I had nothing to do. ”

But I think the old fish remembers that he has passed through several lives, but he has never been in contact with an animal trainer. Tang Xinwei doesn't need to be proficient in beast language to raise dragons and phoenixes, and besides, he can't remember how much Hua Xiangying has.

Hua Langying was very curious, and said, "There is such a strange thing, then can you teach me two tricks?"

The man smiled and didn't answer, and suddenly heard a call: "Zihou!"

Hua Rongying thought that she was hallucinating, but she saw a handsome and evil red-robed man walking over, who was it not Wei Wuji?

Wei Wuji also saw her, and he turned his head again and said, "Why are you here today?"

This thick-hearted man, named Yang Qian, is the son of the Duke of Ningguo, and Wei Wuji is a cousin, and the King of Jin is a cousin. At that time, Wei Wuji and Yang Qian were the right-hand men of Yiwen and Wuwu around the King of Jin, and with the heroes of the King of Jin, Xuanyuan Ling Heng, who was a few years younger and lost his mother at a young age, could not compete with them. Eight years ago, when he conquered the Khitan in the north, King Jin, who was only in his early twenties, could serve as the commander of the Chinese army, which shows that he was brave.

Yang Qian said: "It's also boring at home. But you, I haven't heard that you have returned to Zhongdu, why did you come? ”

Wei Wuji said: "I just arrived in the middle capital in the afternoon, and it was too late to attend the banquet, so I came to ask the emperor for peace at this time." ”

said but intentionally or unintentionally looked at Hua Langying, of course Hua Rongying would not make eye contact with him on the spot, but only stood there lightly.

Wei Wuji introduced Yang Qian again, saying that he was the prince of Ningguo, and Hua Rongying greeted him with each other.

Wei Wuji arched his hand at her again, and said, "Weichen just heard that Concubine De was overjoyed, congratulations to Niangniang." ”

Hua Langying listened to his sour words, and couldn't help but say: "Wu Yinghou didn't prepare a congratulatory gift, who is rare for you to say a few useless words?"

Turning to leave as he spoke, Wei Wuji couldn't help but be stunned, Yang Qian grabbed his wrist, and his indifferent gaze was slightly cold.

Wei Wuji has always had no taboos and is uninhibited, but he has always had a little respect for this cousin, although his cousin does not know martial arts, but he is wise and close to demons.

However, since he was seriously injured and went to Lingnan to recuperate, he has also faded out of the court in recent years. Or his grandmother, Xuanyuan Xiyao, the eldest princess of Xianfu, wants him to return to the court and pave the way for his ten-year-old great-grandson Yang Tingen, he is afraid that he will not come out.

Yang Chengzong, the Duke of Ningguo, had been sick in bed because of an old injury the year before last, and Yang Qian still had two younger brothers, but his son-in-law Yang Qian was there, and it was impossible for them to cross him.

Yang Qian frowned and looked at Wei Wuji, and said, "You are so good, don't you think you are troublesome enough? If you don't have anything important to do and don't stay in Yongzhou, what are you doing here?"

Wei Wuji's face was sneering and he said, "How are your aunt, cousin, and Tingen?"

Yang Qian said: "You have time to come over tomorrow to sit down." ”

Wei Wuji looked away with his eyes, it turned out that Hua Langying walked back, and happened to meet Xie Zhixiao again, and Yang Qian couldn't stop him and rushed over.

Hua Rongying received Xie Zhixiao's congratulations, and she also regretted hearing Wei Wuji's sour tone just now, how could she not help but say something like that. But I think the prince of Ning Guo won't doubt it.

So, when I saw the second one to congratulate her, she said the same thing, so others only said that she was due to her temperament, and everyone said so when she was in a good mood.

Xie Zhixiao couldn't help but be stunned, the expression on his face was still upright, but his ears were red, and his heart was also rippling.

"...... What do you want...... Congratulatory gifts?"

Hua Langying didn't think he asked so seriously, and said, "I want to eat puffer fish, but the emperor always says that there is no such poisonous fish in the palace." ”

Xie Zhixiao said: "The emperor doesn't allow Niangniang to eat this, but also for Niangniang's good." ”

Hua Langying said: "It's boring." ”

Wei Wuji suddenly came over and said, "What's so difficult about this, I will definitely be able to get it in five days." When the time comes, ask Wei Guifei to set up a puffer fish banquet, and Concubine De will be able to eat it. ”

Hua Langying said: "Wei Guifei can still hold a banquet and make a puffer fish?"

Wei Wuji said: "Back then, my sister and I were greedy for this appetite at home, just like Concubine De. Sent by her mother's brother, of course she can set up a feast for everyone. ”

Hua Langying sighed: "It's a pity that my mother's family is far away in Zhejiang, and my brothers and sisters don't know when they can see each other." ”

Saying that, Gao Lianxi suddenly came over and said, "Concubine De, why are you here, the emperor has uploaded you." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Wei and Xie, as well as Yang who was not far away, and he was also a little suspicious in his heart, and his face was silent.

Hua Rongying followed Gao Lianxi away, and Xie Zhixiao also saw Yang Qian, and stepped forward to salute: "Cousin Yang." ”

The relationship between the two is not as close as Wei Yang, but the grandmothers of Xie and Yang are both eldest princesses and half-sisters.

Yang Qian said: "I haven't seen Xiao Xie for three years, and Xiao Xie has grown up." ”

Wei Wuji smiled and said, "Xiao Xie is also twenty-five, he has already grown up, and his cousin treats him as a child." ”

The children of big families like them have many in-laws with each other, even if the emperor takes turns, each family has a little relationship with different factions. Xie Zhixiao was the original King of Yu (now Shang) faction, but at the beginning, King Yu clearly supported King Jin, and Xie Zhixiao was familiar with Wei and Yang.

Xie Zhixiao didn't take Wei and Yang's words at ease, and he still thought about Hua Rongying's smile in his heart.

He had a kind of frustration that a man approached his sweetheart and couldn't make her happy, but he thought: she finally looked at him and laughed with him, but she was disgusted by her stupid tongue.

His modest answer, where could it arouse her little naughty boy's liking, she still thought he was "so boring", but Wei Wuji's few words could make her eyes shine. But every woman always likes Wei Wuji.

Suddenly fireworks burst into the sky, and a bang woke him up.

How could he think like that, in fact, whether it was himself or Wei Wuji, they were just outsiders, and she was the emperor's woman.

Wei Wuji is only afraid of her, she is young and willful, don't be tempted by him to regret it, he mentioned it from the side, even if she doesn't like it, she can always understand that he is kind when she grows up.

Hua Langying returned to the emperor, and the emperor took her hand and said, "Why did you run away after a while?"

Hua Langying smiled and talked about the origin of the bird, Xuanyuan Ling Heng smiled faintly and said, "Where did I come from such a humane bird, it turned out that he raised it, no wonder." ”

Hua Langying said: "The concubine heard Marquis Wu Ying call him 'cousin', and Marquis Su Yi is also like an old friend. ”

Xuanyuan Ling Hengqi said: "Wu Yinghou is here?"

Marquis Wu Yinghou has military power, but he is not so suspicious of the emperor when he comes to Beijing without soldiers and horses, but he and Dingguo Gong rarely appear in Zhongdu at the same time, and the Wei family army must be guarded.

Saying that, Yang Qian and Wei Wuji both came to meet the emperor, and Xuanyuan Ling Heng said with a smile: "Calm down, today is really a big day, the two of you are together." ”
