Chapter 230: The Palace Banquet
Chen Feifei was still talking happily to them, and she listened to someone urging her, "Third Miss, the eldest young master said that it was dark." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"My brother is urging me, I came out with him today, he is afraid that he is impatient to wait for me, I have to go. It's getting late today, so we'll talk again another day. ”
Looking at Chen Feifei's departing back, Yan Hanyu seemed to see the white corners of her clothes again, and wondered for a while, could it be the son of the Chen family who gave her the double-headed lotus?
Confused!
If he sent it, why didn't he give it his name?
After Chen Feifei said goodbye, Yan Hanyu also said goodbye to Han Dan and went back.
On the day of Qixi Festival in July, Yan Jingxiang didn't know where to catch a spider and showed it to Yan Hanyu.
"Sister, what do you see I caught?"
Yan Hanyu didn't know that her brocade box contained things, and when she opened it, she was frightened by the insects with so many feet.
"Ahh
Yan Jingxiang covered the brocade box, and said with a smile, "Sister, you are afraid of this!"
Yan Hanyu was disgusted, "Originally, I wasn't afraid, but if you suddenly opened it, where would I be prepared, not to mention that it was crawling outside, wouldn't I be scared?"
"This year, many families have caught spiders and put them in this brocade box, and they all say that if the spider's web is round and straight, it will be a coincidence!" Yan Jingxiang explained, "Sister, do you want to? I'll help you find a big one too." ”
"No, I don't want it. Yan Hanyu shook her head, "My mother said that if I can successfully pierce the seven-hole needle for the moon, it will be a coincidence." ”
"Facing the moon, I'm afraid I can't wear a needle, and I still have a seven-hole needle?" Yan Jingxiang said, "I think I'd better find a few more spiders, one can't work, there is always one that can weave well." ”
On the same day, Yan Hanyu also received a gift from his master, which was an ivory carved lotus leaf lotus canopy.
This is the first time she has received a different gift from her master, and in the past, she received the most books.
Yan Hanyu was happy like something, and played with it in her hand for a long time.
On the willow tops of the moon, a thin layer of moonlight is like a light veil spreading the earth, gently soft, the glossy light is gentle and quiet, just like a mother's smile is soft but lonely.
Every time she saw the moon, she would give birth to a sense of intimacy, and in her childhood impression, she always felt that her father was like the bright moon in the sky, bright and ethereal, ethereal and distant. She can't even remember the outline of her father's facial features, but she just feels that her father's temperament is no different from the bright moon in the sky.
Yes, without her father in this world, she still has to continue to live, but can her mother figure it out?
Turning his head to look at his mother, her mother's gaze was no different from hers, looking at the moon with half her back, her mind was ethereal, and her eyes were gloomy.
No matter how good her medical skills are, she can't heal people's hearts, and she can't help but feel helpless.
As she gets closer to the death of her mother in her previous life, she will become more and more panicked.
Obviously, many things are changing in this life, but she is still nervous, she is still afraid. Her mother was the person closest to her, how could she not be worried?
She wanted to choose to forget the things of her previous life, but those things were like pictures engraved in her heart, and she couldn't erase them.
From Tanabata to the Midyear Festival, there is only a few days in between, followed by the beginning of autumn.
The cloudy sky is full of summer colors, and the leaves are moving in autumn.
The mountains and waters are clear and frosty at night, and several trees are dark red and light yellow.
After the beginning of autumn, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days.
On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is also the emperor's birthday, and a big banquet is set up in the palace to celebrate the emperor's birthday.
A few days ago, a decree came out from the palace, and officials of the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet of three grades and above can participate, and all the wives of the decree can bring their families into the palace.
Lin Suxin even received another will, saying that she would take Yan Hanyu to the palace to attend the birthday banquet.
In this way, Yan Hanyu must go this time.
After the promulgation of such a will, there were waves in Beijing for a while, and there were many discussions, everyone knew that several princes in the palace had reached the appropriate age to marry, and the lady could bring her family, which meant that the emperor was preparing to choose a concubine for several princes of the right age.
In this way, this trip to the palace was very lively, and there was an endless stream of carriages and ox carts, all of which were rushing to the palace.
In these years, the emperor has been diligent in political affairs, and the Khitan has not fully recovered the lost land, and the emperor also wants to become the overlord of the Quartet, so that the territory of the Quartet is subject to the Great Song Dynasty, so that border wars often occur, the emperor is determined to do this, and the palace banquet will naturally be less.
Such a grand palace banquet is rare once in many years, and the people in the city can't help but talk about it when they hear about it.
When the female dependents entered the palace, they all went to the inner court to meet the Queen Song and the concubines of the two palaces.
Now Empress Song of the Inner Court is often tired of health, so she has relieved herself of the responsibility of being in charge of the harem and handed it over to Guo Guifei and Sun Guifei to assist in the management.
To say that this inner court, the emperor originally had a room for his wife, and she was the daughter of General Fu, but she had a thin life and died of illness in order to leave a son and a daughter. After the emperor ascended the throne, he posthumously called Fu as Empress Yide and entered the temple as the god.
The first emperor's Empress Song was alive, so the emperor ascended the throne, and only canonized the concubine at the highest.
Lin Suxin took Yan Hanyu and Shizuka into the palace, and as soon as she arrived at the gate of the palace, she saw Xie Shisan, who dismounted at the same time. Xie Yi jumped off the horse, her demeanor was so graceful that the little ladies who came and went couldn't help but look sideways, and her cheeks were a little flushed.
It was Xie Ting who got out of the carriage behind him.
Xie 13 saw that it was them, and came in stride.
"Mrs. Yan. ”
Lin Suxin saw Xie Yi for the first time and chuckled, "I never go out, I don't know where this Xiaolangjun is?"
"Xiaolang Xie's family, Xie Yi. He said, stretching out his hand and pointing at Xie Ting behind him, "This is the little sister Xie Ting." ”
Xie Ting was wearing a lotus soft floor-length dress today, with a soft face, only to feel that Yingruo was in full bloom, delicate and affectionate, she stepped forward and said softly, "I have asked Mrs. Yan for a gift." ”
"Hurry up, it turns out to be the Xie family, I often hear Hanyu talk about you, Tingting is independent, there is no vulgarity, I like you very much when I see you. Lin Suxin stepped forward to help her up, looked up at Xie Yi with a slender posture, and exclaimed, "The Xie family is unconventional, and Xie Xiaolangjun has the style of the ancestor of the Xie family." ”
Xie Yi said humbly, "Mrs. Yan praised it falsely. ”
Then he continued, "Mrs. Yan, my mother suddenly had a cold illness today and was not allowed to enter the palace, but my sister entered the palace by the will of her mother, so I had to bring her in, I am a male dependent, it is inconvenient to enter the palace, my sister is entering the palace for the first time, I don't understand the rules of the palace, I don't know if Mrs. Yan can take my sister in and take care of one or two?"
"What's so difficult about this? Just follow us, Hanyu is still trying to talk to her. ”
Yan Hanyu smiled and nodded to Xie Ting, "Hmm." ”
"Thank you, Mrs. Yan, my mother will recover from her illness another day, and I will definitely go to the house to thank you. ”
"You're welcome. While Lin Suxin answered, she instantly remembered that she seemed to have received a post from the Xie family before, but she refused.
She has never received many posts to meet customers, but now when she sees the Xie family's Xiaolangjun, she thinks that Mrs. Xie can see it. (To be continued.) )
