Chapter Twenty-Eight: First Sight of the Emperor
Although the days in the palace are very busy every day, time flies by in a flash. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoGradually, the day of the general election is only a few days away.
In Chuxiu Palace, it was in a lively situation because of this, and everyone was busy buying new clothes and new jewelry, preparing to be able to make a splash at the time of the election.
And Ye Siwei was busy preparing for how to increase the probability of losing the election at the time of the election, but she once again ushered in the summons of Concubine Hui. Concubine Hui summoned her in the evening, but she sent a palace maid to deliver the message early in the morning, and she deliberately explained, so that Ye Siwei could dress up carefully.
With doubts, under the almost persecution of Chunxie, Ye Siwei was bathed and changed by Chunxie and Qiuqing, who has never been incense, and her clothes were smoked with a sweet and greasy fragrance.
"If it weren't for the fact that the two of you hadn't left me, I would have suspected that you were bought by Concubine Hui." Smelling the aroma on her clothes, Ye Siwei couldn't help frowning.
However, Autumn Love is just laughing, and Chunxie obviously has its own plans. However, after getting along during this time, Ye Siwei understood that Chunxie had no disagreement with her, but now she was trying her best to let Ye Siwei finally stay in the palace. Ye Siwei didn't care too much about this, after all, in her opinion, Chunxie's careful thinking couldn't calculate her.
Ye Siwei originally planned to go alone, after all, Chunxie's hatred for Concubine Hui was too great. But in the end, considering the promise of the Spring Pavilion, he still took the Spring Pavilion with him.
Outside the Yaohua Palace, as the palace maid guarding the door went in to pass the word, Ye Siwei looked at the Chun Xie beside her with some unease.
After thinking about it, Ye Siwei couldn't help but pull Chunxie aside, and whispered: "After entering for a while, you shouldn't be able to follow me into the hall, if so, you must remember not to walk around, just wait for me outside the hall." If you can follow me in, bow your head and be silent, and don't speak. There is one more thing, you must remember not to be rude, and not to reveal half of your thoughts, and if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, understand? ”
Chun Xie nodded, even if Ye Siwei didn't order, with her cleverness, she would definitely not directly show her hatred for Concubine Hui. After all, with Concubine Hui's status in the harem, it is simply an easy thing to dispose of her.
"I think my sister called me over this time, I'm afraid that something is probably related to the general election. If you can't follow me for a while, and a palace maid asks you to talk, you can probe the mouth, but remember, you have to pick up some dispensable things about me, and you can't reveal anything else anyway. ”
"The slave and maid understand that the palace maid who went in to pass the word should come out quickly, and the young lady will not go over again, but I am afraid that it will be delayed." For Ye Siwei's instructions, Chunxie responded one by one, but his eyes always paid attention to the direction of the palace gate.
came out with the palace maids who had been rumored before, as well as Mama Zhou, the most trusted by Concubine Hui's side. Looking at Ye Siwei, Mama Zhou's face was immediately full of smiles. And Ye Siwei also changed the appearance when she was talking to Chunxie just now, lowering her head slightly, looking timid.
Entering the Yaohua Palace, this time Concubine Hui did not wait in the side hall, but in the main hall, summoning Ye Siwei. As for the Spring Pavilion, as Ye Siwei had guessed before, she could only wait outside the hall.
With the departure of Ye Siwei and Chunxie, neither of them noticed it, not far from where they were just now, but a man figure slowly walked out, looking at Ye Siwei's location before with interest.
In the Yaohua Palace, watching Ye Siwei walk into the hall, Concubine Hui also changed her laziness when she first saw Ye Siwei, and greeted her with a smile the moment she saw Ye Siwei.
"My sister is dressed well today, although the makeup is lighter, but it is better than the plain and elegant. It's just that this hairpin is ordinary, it's just that my sister has a hairpin suitable for my sister here. After catching up, Concubine Hui took Ye Siwei's hand affectionately, but her eyes looked at her carefully, "Xiuying, when I entered the palace, I will bring the cloud sideburns and golden steps that the emperor rewarded." ”
Following Concubine Hui's instructions, a palace maid in the palace answered and ran away in a hurry. But after a while, he took what Concubine Hui said. Concubine Hui glanced at it, took off the wooden hairpin on Ye Siwei's head with her own hands, and then shook the golden step to Ye Siwei to put on.
"Thank you, sister." For such a reward from Concubine Hui, Ye Siwei did not postpone it, but thanked her directly. After all, under the circumstance that she was given Jin Bu Shao as soon as she came, Ye Siwei didn't think that this Jin Bu Shao was something she could postpone it.
"The emperor has arrived!" Concubine Hui was just about to speak, but there was a sound outside the main hall.
This voice made Ye Siwei stunned. But Concubine Hui looked like she had known that the emperor would come, and her expression was not only a little surprised, but also faintly excited.
When Ye Siwei was stunned, Concubine Hui pulled Ye Siwei forward to meet her. Even when Ye Siwei was not stunned by this, she had to take over the arrival of the emperor.
"The concubine has seen the emperor." With Concubine Hui's salute, Ye Siwei also saluted on the side, but it was not the gift of the harem concubine, but the gift of the palace maid.
After learning the court etiquette in the palace for a period of time, she naturally knows that even if she is a show girl now, she is not a harem concubine after all, and she can only perform the etiquette of a palace maid.
"Flat." As a pair of blue satin boots embroidered with gold thread came into view, a voice with majesty and a very indifferent tone sounded.
"The concubine got a novel recipe a few days ago, and asked the small kitchen to try to make it, and after a simple improvement, it has been completed. I heard that the emperor was coming, and the concubine asked the small kitchen to be prepared early in the morning, and asked the emperor to move over and try it? Concubine Hui got up, but she didn't introduce Ye Siwei, but directly invited the emperor to go to the side hall for dinner.
Ye Siwei also got up, although she kept her head down, but secretly glanced at where the emperor was. The emperor was not wearing a dragon robe, only a black regular robe, but in front of the placket, there was a dragon embroidered. Even at the cuffs, neckline and waist, there are dragons embroidered with gold thread and five-colored moire. Although the emperor said that he had a straight face at this time, his face shocked Ye Siwei's heart.
In Ye Siwei's previous cognition, the emperor was only afraid that he was already forty or fifty years old, but now he looks like he is only a young man in his twenties. With a handsome face, eyebrows like ink paintings, and eyes like stars, for Ye Siwei, it is better than the modern popular little fresh meat. It's just that at this time, the emperor's eyes are cold, without the slightest emotion.
Just at this glance, Ye Siwei suddenly felt that even if the final plan failed, it seemed to be a good thing to stay in this palace.
"A few days ago, Concubine Hui said that she had a new recipe, please come and try it. However, the recipe was not to my liking, it was not attractive, and it was very unappetizing. Concubine Hui's improved recipe today won't make me lose my appetite like last time, right? Hearing the word recipe, the corners of the emperor's mouth rose slightly, but this smile made the emperor feel even colder.
"Last time it was the concubine's fault, this time the concubine will make up for it, please don't blame the emperor!" For the emperor's words, Concubine Hui's body couldn't help but be stunned, but then she smiled at the emperor and confessed.
Under the leadership of Concubine Hui, the emperor went to the side hall for dinner. Ye Siwei originally wanted to retreat, but she was pulled by Mama Zhou and followed her to the side hall.
