Chapter 104: Impressions

The personal maid in the queen mother's bedroom found that the typhoid fever that the queen mother had been delayed since the winter was obviously much better, and she seemed to be in a particularly good mood. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Everyone in Cining Palace is secretly running to tell each other the good news, but everyone also understands that although they don't have to worry about being heavily punished for small mistakes, they don't dare to be a little lazy because of the Queen Mother's comfortable mood, just because there are distinguished guests in Cining Palace today.

Today, many attendants got up almost earlier than usual, sprinkled and cleaned, and only after the preparations seemed to be in place, did they dare to take a breath and rest for a while, and so cautious everyone was still afraid of mistakes, and the maids and eunuchs in charge of the halls had to go back and forth several times, and they could only relax a little when they checked back and forth, just because this banquet involved the majesty of the queen mother. Others are okay to say, but for the handkerchief of the queen mother's childhood, it seems that the queen mother is particularly concerned about not wanting to fall behind.

However, at this time, the situation of the whole court is wonderful, the emperor is more like a puppet, and the queen mother is not very close to it.

And for Princess Huaiyang, she seemed to show extraordinary courtesy and tolerance, and even sent her spare car to welcome her into the palace.

Such an action made the little palace maid and the attendants who had just entered the palace very puzzled, and they didn't know whether the relationship between the queen mother and the princess was good or bad. It's just that they all know one thing very well, no matter how good or bad the relationship between this princess and the queen mother is, the people in the Huaiyang Royal Mansion can't afford to offend these little newcomers.

At three o'clock in the morning, the arrival of the guests is also the most nervous time for them.

"Princess Huaiyang, the county lord Jing Yu, and Li Jin, the daughter of the Ministry of Works, have come to see you. With a long chant, everyone entered the battle mode of the day.

Li Jin looked at the guard of honor at the door, and only came back to his senses when he heard the singing in the front hall and backyard. At this time, the old princess and Jing Yu had already stepped up the steps under the guidance of the attendants of Cining Palace, and the distance between Li Jin and them was already slightly obvious. Trying his best to catch up with two steps quietly, Li Jin gathered his mind and made final preparations for the meeting for a while.

There was a small brazier in the verandah every few steps, and Li Jin had heard her mother say that it was the latest to rise from there. The delicate carvings seem to depict the silver flowers of the fire tree, and the metal brazier has no idea what is burning inside, except for the occasional beep of the unusual charcoal fire.

As you pass by the braziers for heating, you will occasionally see a small flame shining brightly inside. I don't know if it's because this small brazier raised the temperature in the verandah, or because Li Jin was in a hurry, and there was already a thin layer of sweat on her forehead at this time.

When he entered the house, the excessive heat came to his face at the moment when he lifted the door curtain, and there was a flower in front of him, which almost made Li Jin faint on the spot. Fortunately, there was a door next to him, and Li Jin slightly let himself lean on for a few breaths, and no one could find that he had recovered some strength. Only then did he slowly fall behind the old princess and Jing Yu, and silently accompanied him to the flower hall of Cining Palace for hospitality.

When the three of them came to the hall dedicated to meeting guests, Li Jin was a little stunned when he saw the magnificent scene in front of him, and he didn't know what to say.

The interior decoration is the same as other places in the palace, but the space is more spacious, I don't know if it is because the Queen Mother likes to be low-key, or because of the rules in the palace, the furniture Li Jin saw was almost all made of mahogany, and it was the same here.

If Li Jin shows that it is a jade cabbage, the whole coral is displayed on the shelves of the Duobao Pavilion, still maintaining a bright red color, etc., all kinds of rare and exotic treasures are listed on the Duobao Pavilion. If you just glance at it, you may not be able to see it, although these things seem ordinary, if there are rich and noble people among the people, they can also take them for themselves. It's just that if you look at it from the details, these things are not only first-class in workmanship, but also extremely fine in the selection of materials.

Li Jin secretly remembered the emperor list released by the emperor a few days ago, and the words on it were excitedly advocating diligence and thrift, and at this moment, Li Jin felt that he didn't see anything from this Cining Palace. Li Jin secretly estimated the value of these things in his heart, and secretly said that if it weren't for the emperor being constrained by various forces in the court and China at this time, and the frontier was even more unstable, I don't know if he would tolerate such a pomp and circumstance of the queen mother.

It's just that this dynasty governs the country with filial piety, and if there is a disobedience, the ordinary people will easily be ruined, not to mention the gentry clan and the rich family of one side, such a person who cherishes feathers. Therefore, the world's example, the pride of the sky naturally cannot be a person who owes something in filial piety. Such a truthful thing, I am afraid that the young son of heaven must have tried his best to avoid, so although the national situation is not optimistic at this time, but not only now, the emperor is not too serious with the queen mother.

Although Li Jin can't say that he hasn't seen the Queen Mother at the royal banquet, those impressions are too vague, and the distance is far, and Li Jin has never had a conversation with him. Therefore, at this time, the image of the queen mother in Li Jin's heart has already become a jeweled and aggressive woman.

But what appeared in Li Jin's eyes in less than a quarter of an hour, the world can really be said to be above ten thousand people under one person, but he is the person with the highest status among the women in the world, but it is completely different from what Li Jin imagined. Although the old man in front of him is no longer glorious, he still has a temperament that makes people can't take their eyes off, perhaps because he is well-maintained, his eyes are shining, and he is very smart. If Li Jin didn't know that this was the actual age of the Queen Mother, I am afraid that when they met for the first time, they would probably think that she was the same age as her mother.

And Li Jin's impression that he could compete with the emperor was that kind of monstrous momentum, but it didn't appear at all on the face of the delicate makeup opposite him, but the gentle and elegant book fragrance irrepressibly made Li Jin feel good.

Just like the kind smile of the old princess of Huaiyang Palace, it appeared on Li Jin's face for the first time so carefully observed.

"Long time no see, Lan Zhi. The Queen Mother looked at the eyes of the old princess of Huaiyang seriously, with a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth that made people guess the meaning, and said with a tone that seemed to be emotional and seemed to have finally waited.

"yes, long time no see. The old princess of Huaiyang also responded in such a low voice, and her tone and voice seemed to be talking to herself, and then immediately saluted the queen mother in accordance with the etiquette of the courtiers.

Li Jin and Jing Yu saluted the old princess of Huaiyang, and saluted the queen mother according to their own identities. After that, the Queen Mother's actions seemed to be controllable, and she no longer showed the feeling of nostalgia and forbearance.
