Chapter 109: Ning Shenxiang
When the banquet was over, Feng Qing led the queen and the concubine Niangniang to leave Ninghua Palace, and when he walked past Yueming, he deliberately glanced at him twice, and said softly: "You and that Qin Min are a pair of beautiful people." Yueming's unchanged face finally changed a little, he frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, just saluted Feng Qing.
The prince Feng He and Feng Qiao on the side all became extremely ugly when they heard this.
When Queen Wu Yan walked past Yaoling, she also looked at her with a smile in her eyes. Then he stretched out his hand and grabbed her, and said to her very affectionately: "Come with this palace." Yaoling had no choice but to follow.
After everyone left, Yueming walked out slowly with Fengzhao.
Outside the gate of the palace, a few handsome sons saw the three of them come out, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. It turned out that those Houmen princes had always thought that Yueming and Fengzhao were just the protons and princes of Yanlong Kingdom, and they didn't take it to heart. Unexpectedly, today I found that Emperor Fengqing actually valued the two of them very much, and it seemed that the concubine Niangniang was also quite good to the two of them, especially today, the courage and talent shown by Fengzhao and Yueming in the main hall were really admired by them, so they had the heart to make friends. And not far away, there were still a lot of Houmen's daughters, who looked at Yueming stupidly. Feng Zhao suddenly had a sneer on his face: "You became famous in one song." ”
Fengming Palace. Yaoling accompanied Queen Wu Yan.
"Yun'er, go and bring the gift prepared by the palace for Princess Rongyu. She said briskly to Yun'er, who was standing on the side.
"Yes. Yun'er walked down lightly. After a while, he held a brocade box in his hand, followed by a few little palace maids holding silk brocade.
"I have someone to make it for you. "When I opened the brocade box, there was a superb white jade bracelet inside, with a soft and gentle luster. Yao Ling was immediately attracted by the elegance and warmth of the jade, and picked it up very unceremoniously and brought it on her jade wrist. Seeing Yaoling's happy face, Wu Yan's eyes flashed with an unpredictable light.
"These are a few high-grade brocades, all produced in the famous silk village of Xiwu, which were given to me by His Majesty, but I am now old and decrepit, and I can't use them. She let out a shallow sigh.
Hearing her say this, Yaoling raised her head slightly and saw Wu Yan showing joy to her: "Niangniang, what do you say, you are the most beautiful time." ”
Hearing her say this, Wu Yan suddenly shed a clear tear.
"This palace is with you to feel a trace of happiness, this palace is full of people who can only gasp and can't speak, fortunately, I still have He'er, you see that Concubine Hui and Concubine Li have no children, the two of them are like rotten wood. Who knows how distressed it is?" she took out a brocade handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Yaoling was stunned: "This lady said that if she sheds tears, she will shed tears, it is so easy." ”
Thinking like this in his heart, he said obediently in his mouth: "Niangniang, you are like this, won't Concubine Hui and Concubine Li not survive." The emperor is the king of a country, aren't all the women in the world hers? But the emperor only has four mothers. Even my father and king still have more than a dozen princesses, and the monarch of Yanlong has two queens, and none of those concubines are looking forward to the monarch looking at them. There are also a lot of concubines who have no hope in the palace who are crazy and crazy, and there are many people who don't even look at the monarch, no matter what, the emperor has always respected you, and he must also be thinking about the relationship between husband and wife. Yaoling's small mouth said that Wu Yan nodded vigorously when she heard it.
"Hey, this palace just loves to listen to you, although you are not very old, but you always listen to it. She wiped away her tears and said to Yaoling with a smile.
"This girl is also Mr. Ghost's apprentice, and she doesn't have any skills to treat people. Her heart was full of pride. In a blink of an eye, I thought of my mother again, and my heart was gloomy, but it was also fleeting.
When the two were talking, they saw a little palace maid walk in outside the door: "Yu Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Prince has come down." ”
"Hmm. Wu Yan nodded.
Outside the door, he walked into Fenghe, dressed in a prince's suit, with a proud and handsome face. When he entered the palace gate and saw Yaoling, he smiled slightly: "Princess Rongyu is also here." ”
Yao Ling hurriedly got up and saluted, very ladylike and well-behaved.
"He'er, why are you here?, is there something wrong?" Wu Yan asked gently.
"Well, Erchen just got a kind of incense. As he spoke, he took out a brocade box from his sleeve, looked at the clouds on the side quickly, and then opened the brocade box, and a faint fragrance wafted out.
"This is a freshly made tranquilizing incense, which has the effect of calming the nerves and soothing the chest, and the son thinks that his mother does not sleep well, so he uses it for his mother. ”
Picking up a brown incense pill in the brocade box, Wu Yan put it under her nose and sniffed it lightly, "The smell is elegant and soft, where did you get it?"
"Well, the incense shop in my palace was specially made for the queen mother. Feng He said softly to Wu Yan.
Hand the incense pill in his hand to Yao Ling, "Yao Ling, how about you look at this incense?" Wu Yan asked Yao Ling with a side look.
Yaoling took the incense pill, put it under her nose and sniffed it lightly for a while, her brows furrowed slightly, and when she raised her eyes, she found that a trace of nervousness quickly flashed under Feng He's eyes.
Putting down the incense pill in her hand, she said softly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really very hearty, this fragrance is really elegant and soft, and it does not stimulate the five organs and six lungs." But," she paused, flashing her big curly eyelashes, looking at Wind River and saying, "But I don't like incense, I still like the smell of the sun." ”
"It is appropriate for a woman to use incense. Wu Yan took the brocade box in Feng He's hand and said to Yao Ling with a smile. Then she asked, "You're a doctor, can you smell any spices in this incense?"
"Well, I'm a doctor, but the process of making incense is very different from the process of making medicine, so I don't know much about incense. Moreover, the production of a kind of incense requires a variety of spices, so it is not a master of incense making that cannot smell the ingredients of incense. She said seriously.
The wind river on the side faintly seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Out of Fengming Palace, Yaoling's mind turned, and she did not go back to the palace immediately, but turned around and went towards the more remote dormitory where Concubine Hui and Concubine Li lived.
Concubine Hui and Concubine Li were both concubines married by Fengqing when she was the prince, because they had no children and were not liked by Fengqing, in order to pass the loneliness, the two asked to live in a courtyard. entered the Rongxiang Garden where the two lived.
At this time, it is the time of the New Year's Festival, and the whole world celebrates, but Rongxiangyuan does not have a trace of the atmosphere of the New Year's Festival, although the courtyard is neat, there is an indescribable desolation. Yaoling couldn't help but feel a little sentimental in her heart. Although Fengqing does not want to see Wu Yan, she is a queen and has a prince, so the Fengming Palace where she lives is a place with great queen prestige. And this Rongxiangyuan is just a nice name.
When Concubine Hui saw Yaoling, she was a little at a loss and hurriedly ordered someone to move the seat. Yaoling looked at the two concubines, and saw that the two of them looked haggard and unfocused, and Concubine Li was still holding a rosary and wearing plain clothes.
"Is Niangniang fasting?" asked Concubine Li gently.
A faint smile floated on Concubine Li's face, Concubine Hui on the side glanced at Concubine Li, and suddenly a tear rolled down: "She has already served the Buddha." ”
Yaoling couldn't help but be shocked in her heart, no matter how she looked at Concubine Li, she was still in her prime.
"Sister, why are you crying? Now I am the real me, and my mood is calm and calm. Concubine Li said softly, her expression like that of an old man who had seen through the vicissitudes of life.
Yaoling didn't know what to say, these two concubines, she saw them for the first time today, she only knew that they were all from famous families, and they were both talented women who were famous in the imperial capital when they were not married, but now they ended up like this. For some reason, she remembered Concubine Min.
Fortunately, Fengqing did not treat the two of her badly in terms of food and clothing, and the equipment used in the house was also of the highest quality. Yaoling sat for a while and then left.
