Chapter 96: A bowl of red bean porridge
Zhang Wan looked at the red bean porridge sent by the palace people, and couldn't help but smile. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This Wan Guifei's movements are not slow.
The little eunuch who brought porridge in the imperial dining room saw that Zhang Wan was just looking at the silver bowl but not moving, and he was inevitably a little anxious.
"Miss Zhang," the little eunuch looked up at Zhang Wan slightly, and said with a stingy face, "The noble concubine said that it has only rained and the sky is sunny now, and the imperial court is also providing disaster relief, and it is the time when we need to use silver, so we should also save one or two in the harem." Therefore, in the past few days, the breakfast of the whole palace has only used this red bean porridge. ”
"Besides," the little eunuch seemed to be worried that Zhang Wan would be dissatisfied, and explained with a smile, "The concubine Niangniang said, now that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the girl's happy event is imminent, the color of this red bean is red, and with some red bean porridge, the palace also looks more festive." ”
Although Zhang Wan already has the name of the crown princess, she has not yet been married. The people in this palace, under the instructions of the Empress Dowager Zhou, all called her by the name of the girl.
"Got it. When Zhang Wan heard this, she couldn't help but smile faintly. It seems that for her sake, everyone in the six palaces is probably going to drink red bean porridge for a while.
After Zhang Wan smiled, she picked up the silver spoon on the side, slowly stirred the red bean porridge in front of her, and ate it in small bites.
She knew that although this concubine was arrogant, she was not a stupid person, and even if the other party hated herself, there was no reason to do it on the first day.
Seeing that Zhang Wan had finished drinking the bowl of red bean porridge in front of her, the little eunuch on the side secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The master in front of him is now a person who has been blessed by the heavens, and the other party is deeply loved by the Empress Dowager Zhou and His Royal Highness the Prince; if this master is not satisfied with this red bean porridge, then they will be unlucky in the imperial dining room.
"This red bean porridge tastes good. Zhang Wan put down the silver spoon in her hand, picked up the silk handkerchief and gently brushed the corners of her mouth, before raising her head and smiling.
"If the girl is satisfied, it is good. The little eunuch bent down and bowed his head, stepped forward humbly, and neatly put away the dishes and chopsticks on the low table. "If the girl has no other orders, the slave will retire first. ”
"Hmm. Zhang Wan nodded indifferently, and after the little eunuch left, she got up and looked at Mother Li on the side.
"Miss Wan," Mother Li stepped forward, stood beside Zhang Wan, and bowed in reply, "Now that three days have passed, the girl should also go to Cining Palace to say goodbye to the Queen Mother." ”
According to the ancient etiquette, three days before Zhang Wan was canonized as the crown princess, she needed to bathe and change clothes in her own residence and concentrate on learning etiquette. During this period, she naturally couldn't see outsiders.
But now, three days have passed, and she can naturally go out.
"Good. Zhang Wan nodded, she really didn't know much about these etiquettes in the world. As soon as she was born, she was taken back to the Guigu Mountain Gate by her master, and later she devoted herself to the Tao, and she didn't have extra time to pay attention to these human etiquette.
Besides, even if she had paid attention to it at the beginning, it would be ten thousand years in the blink of an eye, and those etiquettes at the beginning might not apply.
On this day, the wedding ceremony of the family, although it is claimed to be carried out in accordance with the weekly ceremony. But when she was in retreat, there was no shadow of this big week!
……………………………………………………………………..
Empress Dowager Zhou had just finished her morning class, and she heard a report from the palace that Zhang Wan was coming.
"This girl came by chance. Empress Dowager Zhou took the hand of the great eunuch Wang Ruhai and walked out of the small Buddha hall with a smile, "As soon as Ji'er left, Wan Yatou came over." These two children, aren't they just making an appointment?"
When Wang Ruhai heard this, he smiled.
"The Queen Mother," Wang Ruhai lowered his head, carefully supported his master, and said with a smile, "This Royal Highness and Miss Zhang are unmarried couples in the end, this is a courtesy, they shouldn't have met." According to the old slave, this girl is probably coming over in time. ”
"This kid has a heart. Empress Dowager Zhou smiled and nodded. Wang Ruhai's meaning, she naturally understands.
Today's Zhang Wan, with only a piece of paper canonizing the crown princess, made the heavy rain that lasted for more than a month suddenly stopped, which is naturally in the limelight in the harem.
But sometimes, in this harem, if the limelight is too much, it's not a good thing. Not to mention anything else, just the snooping sight hidden in this dark place, I'm afraid there will be a lot more.
Empress Dowager Zhou knew that at this time, if Zhang Wan made a mistake and stepped on the wrong half of the point, I am afraid that she would attract the gossip of those who have a heart.
If today, Wan Yatou met Ji'er in her own Cining Palace, and with her own queen mother, although everyone would not say anything on the surface, but the gossip in private would probably cause trouble for a while.
Empress Dowager Zhou knew that in this way, under the guidance of public opinion of people with a heart, before this big wedding, the reputation of seeing a lover in private and losing women's morality would probably fall on the head of Wan Yatou.
Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Zhou couldn't help but sigh. In this world, women are always harsh.
Fortunately, Zhang Wan, this kid has always been smart and cautious, and knows how to avoid one or two at this time.
"Wan girl, are you here?" On the top of the main hall, Empress Dowager Zhou looked at the girl in front of her who was polite and polite, and couldn't help but smile kindly.
"Meet the Queen Mother, may the Queen Mother be healthy. This is the first time Zhang Wan has visited the Empress Dowager Zhou since she was canonized as the crown princess, and the etiquette is naturally different from usual.
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhang Wan walked according to the courtesy. She has always been a beautiful person, and after this salute, she is naturally like flowing water, comfortable and natural.
"Alright, get up. Seeing that Zhang Wan was dignified and magnificent, neither humble nor arrogant, Empress Dowager Zhou naturally nodded with satisfaction. "Come, come and sit beside the mourners. Let's talk about ourselves. ”
In this harem, although the Empress Dowager Zhou is the queen mother, there is really no one around her who can say a few words to herself. Queen Wang has always been timid and cowardly, Concubine Wan is so arrogant, and as for the other concubines, the Empress Dowager Zhou is naturally even more disdainful.
But Zhang Wan is indeed different. Since she saved her grandson's life, Empress Dowager Zhou felt that the charm of this girl made her involuntarily like it.
Zhang Wan smiled slightly, and walked to the side of the Empress Dowager Zhou according to her words.
"Queen Mother," she calmly sat down beside the Empress Dowager Zhou, but looked sideways at the small low table on the side, "Haven't you had breakfast yet?"
At this time, the bowl of thick red bean porridge on the small table in front of the two of them was quietly exuding a sweet and glutinous fragrance.
"yes. When Empress Dowager Zhou heard this, she followed Zhang Wan's line of sight and also looked at the bowl of red bean porridge in front of her, but sighed in a low voice, "This was Ji'er's favorite thing back then, and now that Ji'er has been gone for so many years, how can the mourning family eat it when they see this thing again." ”
The Ji'er in the mouth of the Empress Dowager Zhou is naturally the mourning prince Zhu Youji who died young. Back then, that child, who was born in Cining Palace, was brought to be more than a year old by her own hands, and naturally he was also very emotional.
This red bean porridge turned out to be the favorite thing of Prince Mourning Gong, who died early?
When Zhang Wan heard this, she looked down at the red bean porridge in front of her, but a flash of light quickly flashed in her mind. It's just that the aura was so fast, so fast that she felt as if she had ignored something.
