Zhou Yanan comfortably lay sideways on the lotus chaise longue. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Two palace maids wearing moon white hangfang cut-out open sleeves and skirts stood peeling grapes for her, and each peeled one was sent into her mouth. Behind her, four palace maids stood to fan her, and another palace maid named Huizhen gently knocked her back with a beauty fist.

These palace maids are honored by the Internal Affairs Office. Since Zhou Yanan is only ten years old, it is naturally impossible to get married directly. Zhou Yanan heard Huizhen say that when the emperor and queen got married, they could be spoiled alone in the pepper room for a month. However, for Zhou Yanan, who has not yet arrived, it is useless. The Queen Mother discussed with Ling Heng and decided to give Zhou Yanan a position as a female official first.

The queen mother meant to let Zhou Yanan follow her to manage the trivial affairs of the six palaces, and temporarily worship the Shang Palace.

Ling Heng felt that it was very inappropriate for the body of Shang Gong to still salute the concubines below the fourth grade, after all, Zhou Yanan was going to be the queen in the future, and he would lose face. He hoped that Zhou Yanan would follow him, and under his nose, he could ensure that Zhou Yin's sister would not be bullied.

And the female officials and attendants beside the emperor are even lower than Shang Palace.

So Ling Heng decided to worship Zhou Yanan as a new "servant":

Ci Qixiang Palace to live

Commanded the six Shang and the twenty-four divisions

You can walk freely in the palaces (including the Jinluan Hall of the previous dynasty) and enter and exit the Forbidden City freely

When you see a concubine, you don't have to bow down and so on.

Less than an hour after receiving the holy decree, the Internal Affairs Office sent a group of eunuchs and palace maids. It stands to reason that Zhou Yanan can pick eight each. She unceremoniously picked the best-looking.

The two grape peelers are the most beautiful fingers among the palace maids.

Later, whenever the concubine saw Zhou Yanan wandering around, she saw her with twelve palace maids and ten eunuchs, majestic and high-spirited, like a military parade (Zhou Yanan brought two girls, and the other four were her sister's).

Zhou Yanan felt that her sister was simply blind when she fell in love with Ling Heng. There are as many as nineteen concubines recorded (three died). Those with super low scores, not to mention. Most kings are short-lived, probably because of the harem system. As for those who used Jing Taowei slightly on women, not only did they lose their lives, but they also lost their thrones.

She now has two nieces and four nieces, the eldest is no more than six years old, and now she has moved to her brother's house and does not live with their mother.

Needless to mention, when the palace maids beside the Queen Mother took away the little master, those women cried and grabbed the ground, as if they had cut their hearts and livers. What a pitiful mother's heart.

It's a pity that the kind of love of the harem woman is not so selfless. These children are born as nothing more than tools for their mothers.

I also heard that Zhang Wenxiu was given the title of Concubine Shun and given to live in Changchun Palace, and Xie Qin was named Concubine Rou and lived in Xianfu Palace.

This Xie Qin is second only to Zhang Wenxiu's side concubine, and she has a docile temperament.

Zhou Yanan originally thought that at least one of the two people was a concubine. Later, she figured it out by herself: Zhang Wenxiu and Xie Qin have nothing to do, and they are not allowed to be ranked among the four concubines and three ladies.

Give them a certain space for development, but also to let them concentrate on improving their status, so that they don't think about things they shouldn't think about. For example, one day Zhou Yanan was pushed into a certain well and became the queen herself.

Of course, from this small detail, you can get a glimpse of her sister Zhou Yin's methods.

However, the feng shui of Xianfu Palace does not seem to be very good. Concubine Xie Rou had just moved in, and Yingying, the palace maid of Changchun Palace, accidentally walked to Xianfu Palace. It is said that he stole the fruit of the offering before the Rou Concubine Niangniang sent her son Guanyin. Concubine Rou went back to the Queen Mother, twisted her hair, and went out to be a sister-in-law.

It didn't take long for the news that her personal palace maid Min Yue was sick to death. Concubine Xie Rou came to Qixiang Palace overnight to ask for a pair of cards, invited the imperial doctor to see a doctor, and alarmed the queen mother.

Zhou Yanan naturally felt that Concubine Xie Rou might be living too leisurely, and she was purely looking for trouble. And that day, Concubine Xie Rou broke into Qixiang Palace at night, but knelt down in front of the palace gate without saying a word. If it weren't for Lou Wangshu saying that when she was a person, she had never visited the Forbidden City, so she wandered around the palace night and night, and just saw a person kneeling in front of Zhou Yanan's palace, so she told Zhou Yanan in her dream that Qixiang Palace probably didn't know that Concubine Xie Rou knelt for half an hour.

Concubine Xie Rou is indeed calculating. She only had to kneel for another half an hour, and Ling Heng, who had been in the early court, would pass by here in an eight-person sedan chair. At that time, Zhou Yanan will become famous.

The palace people are sick, if they don't know, they will just fall; Concubine Xie Rou is so excited, no matter whether Zhou Yanan ignores it intentionally or not, the people of the Six Palaces, hundreds of officials, and even the people of the court and the opposition will feel that Zhou is unkind.

In comparison, Concubine Xie Rou's image of sympathizing with and loving the palace people is so tall! Zhou Yanan has lost the hearts of the people since then. Whether the hundred officials in the court will oppose the title of Zhou Yanan as the empress will be secondary, and those minions will definitely not do their best when they serve Zhou Yanan.

In addition, what would happen if Ling Heng saw Concubine Xie Rou wearing a moon-white plain dress, her hair was scattered, and she trembled, and heard that she had already "knelt all night"? I'm afraid that when he thinks of Zhou Yanan in the future, he feels that she is thinking about abusing his concubine again.

Zhou Yanan got up, just thought about it, and figured out the cause and effect. But there are also three points of anger. She asked someone to invite the hospital envoy Sun to come.

The envoy of the hospital, Lord Sun Zuohua, has long been in the age of ear shun, and he is the mascot-like character of the Tai Hospital: the imperial doctor is either his apprentice or his apprentice grandson, and he usually asks the Queen Mother or Ling Heng for a safe pulse. Both the Queen Mother and Ling Heng were very polite to him: this is because after the Queen Mother was calculated by Ling Yu to slip the tire, she relied on Sun Zuohua to regulate her body, and finally gave birth to the chubby Ling Heng two years later.

When Sun Zuohua was happy, he took a four-foot-long cart surrounded by a green tweed car into the Tai Hospital, encouraging all the Tai Doctors to be extremely medical and diligent. When he was not happy, he pulled it down and went up to the goldfish pond to watch the fish.

This goldfish pond was originally the "fish algae pond" of the previous dynasty. Legend has it that the Chishang Palace, painted with cornices, was also a forbidden place in the inner garden, and now it has long been decadent. The pond is divided into pieces and stacked into ponds, which are sold to local residents and used to raise goldfish. What lion head, butterfly tail, Liujin, black orchid shou red...... Countless names, endless patterns.

What everyone doesn't know is that Sun Zuohua liked to peek at little girls when he was young. It's a pity that his lady is so spicy, and often scolds: "I don't want to sit on the double tablet." "He is not allowed to eat wine and take concubines, and he is not allowed to play with the girl. Now I gradually want to open it, and I have a concubine, named Mianyue, who is twenty-eight years old, and knows all the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Naturally, the envoys were very happy.

When Sun Zuohua was called up by the messenger wearing a tasseled hat in the palace, he was resting in the small sleeping moon room. (Sun Zuohua's wife still drinks vinegar, and Sun Zuohua is only allowed to go to the sleeping moon for two days a month) Sun Zuohua was shocked, thinking that something had happened to the Queen Mother or Ling Heng, so he hurriedly changed his clothes and entered the palace.

When he found out that such a toss was just for him to treat a concubine's palace maid, he was furious.

The palace maid has her own medical woman to take a look. Originally, the medical girl was ordered by Zhang Wenxiu not to go to see a doctor for Minyue. Concubine Xie Rou made such a fuss, but she just wanted to invite a little imperial doctor to show that she was sympathetic to the palace people, and she raised her face.

Who would have thought that Zhou Yanan would actually invite the mascot of Tai Hospital.

The palace people will only read the benefits of Zhou Yanan. And when it comes to her, it becomes that she is unreasonable, pampered and arrogant, and acts on the elderly grandson to death.

At that time, Concubine Xie Rou did not realize the serious consequences of offending Sun Zuohua.

After Sun Zuohua finished writing the prescription, he threw down a purple pen with a colored lacquer entwined branch and lotus pattern. Concubine Xie Rou sealed a red envelope, which contained several gold bills in the shape of "Magu Birthday Worship", "Peng Zu Burning Incense", Fulu Shou Xicai, etc., with a smile, and personally sent it to Sun Zuohua: "There is Lord Laosun." ”

Sun Zuohua took a step back.

Concubine Xie Rou's smile froze on her face, neither advancing nor retreating.

Sun Zuohua went directly to Xianliangmen and waited for Ling Heng to go to court.

When Ling Heng's eight people entered the Xianliang Gate in a sedan chair, Sun Zuohua rushed forward and said with a handful of snot and tears that he wanted to return to his hometown. He's really sad. worked hard for the Queen Mother Zhou Hui back then, and even when her old mother was dying, she couldn't see her for the last time.

For this reason, his own brother wrote to impeach him for being unfilial. Fortunately, Zhou Hui saved him. Who would have thought that now, he would have to treat a palace maid in the middle of the night!

Ling Heng looked dazed.

A eunuch put his mouth into Ling Heng's ear and said a few words.

Ling Heng comforted, "I will definitely seek justice for you." He knew that when the courtiers got old, they became more and more like children, and they shed tears when they were not satisfied. The old ministers left behind by his father often cried profusely, and he couldn't do anything about them.

He waved his hand, and the sedan chair continued to move forward.

The result naturally ended with the Queen Mother rejecting Sun Zuohua's resignation. Xianfu Palace was fined half a year's silver.

Zhou Yanan asked someone to send a pair of "gold and silver tortoiseshells" with red and yellow stripes to the envoy of Sun Yuan. It is said that Sun Zuohua looked at fish as if they were his own eyes.

There has been no movement in the Changchun Palace.

Zhou Yanan's palace maid has become busy recently. When the begging festival is approaching, they have to instruct each palace to prepare honey locusts, hibiscus leaves, etc., pound the juice and wash their hair, as well as all kinds of red chickens, fruits, and new fruits.

The little palace maids smashed the impatiens with alum to dye their nails, or soaked mung beans, adzuki beans, wheat, etc. in a porcelain bowl, waiting for germination, and then tied into a bunch with red and blue silk ropes, which was called "seeding". This implication is very good, and the masters of all palaces are happy.

Zhou Yanan is very idle. When she saw Mantang Su Hongbi, she had a whimsical idea to ask the chief eunuch Xiaofuzi to collect the lotus petals floating on the water, dip them in egg liquid, and let the small kitchen fry them.

The effect of the gold-brick palace is comparable to that of a 28-degree Celsius air conditioner. She spends most of her time eating in Qixiang Palace. Ling Heng continued to receive all kinds of delicious food, all of which were "love desserts" made up by his concubines. And most of these things went into Zhou Yanan's stomach.

Eat people with a soft mouth and take people with short hands. Zhou Yanan felt that he couldn't go. She heard Xiao Fuzi say that Ling Heng asked people to search for lotus leaves and dew everywhere. She wrapped the West Lake Longjing before the Qingming Festival with white yarn and stuffed it into the lotus before it closed. On the second day, he took it out and handed it to the maid of the tea palace, and the right should be filial piety.

Ling Heng was really full of praise for this kind of tea with a faint lotus fragrance. The next time Zhou Yanan put the tea bags on the boat, he found that there were small tea bags in each lotus flower, and he was really stunned.

The next time Zhou Yanan cooks mung bean lotus leaf lily porridge, he will no longer send it to the Heart Cultivation Palace. Just kidding, the women who were invited by the harem to squeeze their heads know about it, and they will definitely pull out all the lotus leaves in the imperial garden mercilessly and cook them.

She also wants to keep some residual lotus, wait for the west wind to rise, the autumn rain to come, and eat roast goose comfortably in the Qianqiu Pavilion to listen to the sound of rain.
