Chapter 461: Stay

The people who came out of the concubine and the concubine traveled to Jian'an, which coincided with the prince Qin Heng's envoy to Xixia. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After careful investigation, I heard that the two vermilion fruits were gone. One was taken by Emperor Jian'an on the spot in order to prolong his life, and the other was sent to Xixia by the crown prince Qin Heng as a gift.

There are forests of grass and trees in the 100,000 mountains, and the princess knows all about the strange flowers and plants in the world. There is no longevity fairy fruit in this world, it is clearly just a medicinal material that is difficult to find for a thousand years.

Losing the opportunity, the husband has no chance to wait for another 30 years.

Concubine Jun Niangniang refused to let go of the slightest hope, she inquired and asked, Xixia's Empress Dowager's condition had improved, she did not take this Zhu Guo, but temporarily stored it in the jade box.

Stored in a jade box, the medicinal qi will not disperse for many years, and it can still be cured into a life-saving pill. On this trip to Xixia, Concubine Jun wanted to show a hundred times more sincerity to obtain this precious Zhu Guo.

I don't know if this trip will be successful, and Concubine Jun didn't mention it to anyone. That is, he does not want her husband to experience the ups and downs from hope to disappointment, and she does not want to embarrass her son.

Now that I hear that my son and Murong Wei have a deep relationship, if this marriage can be achieved, the opportunity to seek Zhu Guo is probably deeper.

A piece of Zhu Guo can at least extend the life of her husband for more than ten or even twenty years, and the princess is both happy and apprehensive, just looking forward to coming to this trip to fulfill her son's wish and save her husband's life.

At about the first morning of the first month of September, the car of Concubine Jun Niangniang and Gu Chenxiao had already entered the imperial city of Gusu, and Emperor Chongming and Queen Chu personally greeted them at the city gate. With the arrival of many important ministers of the Kangnan Rite Department, a grand welcome ceremony was held in the imperial city.

The male guests are arranged by the Ministry of Rites, and they wash off the dust of the road before attending the evening banquet.

Because Gu Chenxiao lived in Ning Hui Hall last time, he still chose His Royal Highness Ning Hui to stay this time, and the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette had already arranged it according to his habits last time.

Xu Zhaoyi had already made people clean up the two places of Tongyun Pavilion and Huancui Building, and placed the daughters of Kangnan and Jian'an respectively.

Concubine Jun stayed in the Tongyun Pavilion with carved beams and paintings, accompanied by Xu Zhaoyi, and walked to the main gate of Tongyun Pavilion from the path of dividing flowers and willows.

Looking at the front of the hall is a widely planted plantain, and countless Du Ruozhi Zhi is sparse among the flowers and trees, with a refreshing fragrance, the concubine is very satisfied.

The palace people led into the main hall, and the palace people served the concubine and the lady cleaned her face, and sat down with Xu Zhaoyi.

The lid of the cloisonné enamel box is open, and it is divided into four sections, which are ginger candy, dried kiwifruit, preserved meat and rice cakes, which are all specialties of Xiangxi, and the concubine is very surprised.

Xu Zhaoyi's eyebrows are dignified and elegant, and her palace skirt with orange and red outlined black beads and colorful embroidered five-color peony is gorgeous and atmospheric. She asked Concubine Jun for tea with a smile, and her words were generous.

"The concubine has prepared some things from the hometown of the concubine, hoping that the mother can feel at home. Niangniang drove all the way, and the concubines did not disturb Niangniang's rest, and later, the queen of the other country set up a banquet on the Phoenix Terrace to catch the wind for the princess Niangniang. ”

Concubine Jun Niangniang knew that although she was now Zhaoyi, she was about to be ranked as the fourth concubine, so she was willing to slack off, and said with a soft smile: "There is Lao Zhaoyi's mother's trouble, and she has not congratulated Niangniang on the joy of promotion, and her labor is tired, so the palace has prepared a little light gift, and it will be distributed to the two sisters later." ”

The princess's character is above the imperial concubine, and she is older than Xu and Meng's second concubines.

Xu Zhaoyi was dignified and luxurious, and there was already a bit of nobility of the concubine in her expression, and she smiled humbly: "The concubine is a guest from afar, and this is all within the concubine's responsibility." ”

The words are neither humble nor arrogant, and there is a lot of etiquette. Xu Zhaoyi treats people and things very kindly, which is obviously different from the concubines in the Kangnan Palace. Jun Niangniang knew that Emperor Chongming only had this second concubine, and the harem was quiet and clean, so she was a little envious.

Sending Xu Zhaoyi away, Concubine Jun Niangniang scattered her long hair, and was served by the personal palace maid Xiangfu to change her clothes, looking at the neatly stacked ginger candy in the box, she didn't feel her index finger move, and picked up a piece and put it in her mouth.

The ginger candy in Xiangxi is not wrapped in frosting with fine ginger slices, but the ginger is mashed with a pestle and mixed with icing sugar to make juice, which makes the entrance more delicate.

The one made by the Xixia court is obviously more exquisite, and the ginger shreds have been completely filtered out, leaving only ginger juice and icing sugar, plus a little nut flavoring.

The familiar taste ripples on the tip of the tongue, vaguely the taste of hometown. Looking all the way to the south, the gaze seems to be able to penetrate the walls of the white palace, until the clouds and mist of the 100,000 mountains are shrouded.

Concubine Jun is still unsatisfied, after eating one piece, she picks up another piece, and the more she eats, the more she has a charm.

The son mentioned in the evening that Murong Wei knew that he never ate chicken soup, so he changed it to fresh lotus root for him. One thing can still be regarded as a coincidence, but no one knows about these small habits of oneself, except for a few who serve closely. How did Murong Wei know that she didn't like to add shredded ginger to ginger candy, and liked to use nuts for flavoring?

is not yet masked, and the princess is already full of curiosity about this woman who haunts her son's dreams.

deliberately advanced the itinerary and arrived in Xixia before Jian'an's mission, Concubine Jun Niangniang grabbed an opportunity to fulfill the wishes of her husband and son as soon as possible.

On the Phoenix Stage today, you will definitely see the pearl of Emperor Chongming's palm, and look at how this girl called Murong Wei should be Zhong Lingyuxiu and Hui Zhilanxin.

The capital is an ugly daughter-in-law who is afraid to see her in-laws, but the concubine is just the opposite, for fear of embarrassing her son at the first time. And because the Zhu Guo is very important, and she has to ask for others, but she is a little worried.

Regardless of the fatigue of the journey, she instructed Xiangfu to take the auspicious clothes, and the princess was entangled in the dresses one by one: "Xiangfu, does the palace wear this wide skirt with vermilion inlaid treasures, or the palace clothes with narrow sleeves and moon white embroidered gold thread peonies?"

The slender, black-haired concubine Niangniang, with slender willow eyebrows frowning slightly, added some Xizi heart-warming appearance, even though she had already passed the age of Huaxin, she was still bright and scorching, as bright as a twenty-eight beauty.

Xiang Fu bowed on his knees, sighing that the years had treated his master very well, and he was reluctant to carve traces on her.

Walking in the Kangnan harem with ease, now it is just a welcome dinner to make his own mother nervous, Xiangfu naturally knows the thoughts of the concubine.

She smiled softly, her fingers swept over the smooth satin of Shu silk and Hangzhou silk, stopped on a set of palace clothes embroidered with Danfeng Chaoyang in lake blue color, and took out the body of the concubine and compared: "The slave maid looks at this piece, which is elegant and noble, but also introverted and luxurious, and it is the identity of the mother." ”
