Chapter 208 Tea Ceremony

Zhen Wanyi was half a body behind Qi Rong and walked on the middle avenue, "Isn't the prince still on vacation, why did he get up so early?" ”

"Get used to it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Zhen Wanyi smiled and said: "I am different from the prince, I like to lie in bed the most, especially when it is cold, I don't want to go out all day." ”

Qi Rong turned his head and smiled: "You are different, you can sleep as long as you want in the future." After a pause, he added, "You are the biggest in the house." ”

Zhen Wanyi raised her hand and covered her mouth with a fan, and her eyes were crooked, as bright as the moon buds of the sixth month. It's really good if you can really sleep when you want, and sleep until you wake up naturally, but it's a pity that those can only be just thoughts, in the previous society, which was still considered free, couldn't live such a life, let alone this world. In the huge inner courtyard of the palace, hundreds of people have to plan for food and drink, how can it be easy.

In the morning, when Qian's mother introduced the personnel of the palace to her, she could be regarded as seeing what a large household population was, in the past in the Zhen Mansion of Qinghe City, three rooms were in the same place, plus the old lady and the old lady, the total number of people waiting up and down was only about 100 people, but now the palace, the backyard is a serious master plus two side concubines together There are only three people, but there are 768 maids and women who can wait, 40 people in the inner house, only one person Qi Rong in the front yard, 40 maids and 40 maids, and nearly 100 people in the inner palace, and the whole palace has nearly 1,000 people. In the royal regulations, there are 1,000 maids and internal supervisors.

"If I really sleep until I wake up naturally, I'm afraid that I won't even have a mouthful of hot soup when I wake up."

Qi Rong said with a smile: "How is it possible, although the housekeeper in the house was sent by the inner chamberlain, she was also screened by Mother Qian's hand, and Mother Qian will be a housekeeper, with her in you, you can let it go." ”

Zhen Wanyi pouted, and said half-jokingly: "Then Mother Qian is in charge of everything, so what do you want me to do as a hostess?" ”

When Zhen Wanyi thought that she would not get a response, Qi Rong turned her head, lowered her head to Zhen Wanyi's eyes, and said with a smile: "You, the hostess, just wait for me, the male host." ”

Looking at Qi Rong's pointed expression, Zhen Wanyi stomped her foot, reached out and slapped Qi Rong's arm, and a "pop" sounded, when Zhen Wanyi was secretly worried and uneasy, Qi Rong laughed, rubbed Zhen Wanyi's bun, and walked towards Jinxiang Courtyard with her little hand.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw a garnet red figure and a purple figure standing in the courtyard, Tingting and graceful. Zhen Wanyi hurriedly broke free of her little hands, but no matter how fast she moved, the sweet scene of holding hands also fell into the eyes of the two people who had been paying attention to the situation at the door, Sun Xiaoxiao's eyes flashed a trace of jealousy, gritted her teeth, and stepped forward to salute: "The concubine Sun has seen the prince and the princess." ”

Hong Xiangyu's expression remained unchanged, and he also followed the salute with a smile, "The concubine Hong has seen the prince and the princess." ”

Qi Rong's footsteps paused slightly, "Get up." ”

Zhen Wanyi didn't have time to take a closer look at the appearance of the two girls, so she was pulled into the house by Qi Rong, and Zhen Wanyi at this time did not break free anymore, and obediently let Qi Rong pull her.

Qi Rong pulled Zhen Wanyi to the main seat of the front hall and sat down, this hall Zhen Wanyi came in for the first time, the dust of Huanghuali was carved with a pattern of birds and flowers, and the golden red yarn hung down layer by layer, the window to the south was wide and bright, and the sunlight shone in through the bright yarn of the window, projecting on the ground and on the silk, beating like a fairy.

Stepping on the third step of Ruyi is a Huanghuali Arhat bed, thick purple cushions, and two people sitting side by side are not crowded at all. Below are two rows of Huanghuali Taishi chairs side by side, with a desk between the two sides, a total of eight chairs and four chairs, neat and tidy.

Sun Xiaoxiao and Hong Xiangyu stood side by side, raising their heads slightly to pay attention to the men and women on the main seat, one was cold and handsome, one was masculine and the other was gentle, just matching.

Yingyue came out with a teacup, stood under Zhen Wanyi, red sleeves stepped forward and put two cushions in front of Sun Xiaoxiao and Hong Xiangyu, Sun Xiaoxiao's eyelids drooped slightly, staring at the red mattress in front of her feet, her silver teeth were biting, and she hesitated. Hong Xiangyu knelt down directly, causing Sun Xiaoxiao to look sideways for a while, anxious and hateful, and took a step back hatefully, so he had to let Hong Xiangyu serve tea first.

A hint of mockery flashed in Yingyue's eyes, and she handed the teacup to Hong Xiangyu first, and gave Red Sleeves a look, the corners of Red Sleeves' mouth showed a hint of a smile, and she turned around and poured a cup of hot tea again.

"Concubine Hong, please invite the princess to tea."

Zhen Wanyi took it, and the temperature of the tea was sixty percent, just right for entering the throat. took a sip, took a gilt gem-inlaid hairpin from his head and handed it over, "Serve the prince well in the future." ”

"Yes, the concubine obeys." took the hairpin and handed it to Zisang behind him, moved two steps lightly, knelt down, took the tea bowl handed over by Yingyue and saluted, "The concubine invites the prince to drink tea." ”

Qi Rong took the wet lips and put them down, "Serve the princess well and do your part." ”

"Yes, the concubine obeys."

After standing up and standing aside, Sun Xiaoxiao knelt down, her eyelids drooped slightly, and she was reluctant to look at the people seated, but in the eyes of others, she was well-behaved and supple.

Yingyue held the edge of the dish, "Concubine Sun, please serve tea." ”

Sun Xiaoxiao raised her eyes, snorted secretly, and took the tea bowl hard, Yingyue seemed to be startled, and turned over the tea bowl when the two touched, and the hot tea poured to Sun Xiaoxiao who was kneeling on the ground, Sun Xiaoxiao screamed "ah", stood up with a whoosh, and threw a slap on Yingyue's face.

Yingyue knelt on the ground with a "bang" and fell to the ground, "The side concubine Niangniang spares her life, it's all the slave's fault, and please ask the side concubine Niangniang to spare her life." ”

Sun Xiaoxiao shook her burned left hand, pointed at Yingyue who was lying on the ground with her right hand, and said hatefully: "You damn bitch, come here, drag me out and kill me with a cane."

Zhen Wanyi's small hand slapped on the armrest of Luohan's bed, "Concubine Sun is so majestic, she has become the head of Concubine Sun in this house." ”

Sun Xiaoxiao turned around and raised her head arrogantly, "Princess, you are the concubine in this mansion, and you are naturally in charge of the mansion, but this girl burned me with her hands and feet, does the princess still want to protect her?" ”

Zhen Wanyi snorted, "Everyone understands what happened just now, Concubine Sun is unwilling, if you don't want to be disrespectful to the tea, this concubine doesn't have to drink a sip of tea from you, why play such a careful trick." Besides, this is Jinxiang Courtyard, where did Concubine Sun get the ability to beat the concubine in the courtyard of the concubine? ”

Sun Xiaoxiao said stiffly: "Princess, it's obvious that your maid can't do a good job, what's wrong with me teaching the maid for you?" Fortunately, I just burned me today, my status is low, and if I burn it, I will burn it, if she burns a noble person every day, can a slap be done? In the future, all the people in our house will be Mrs. Wang Hougui, and the princess who has been in contact with her before cannot be compared, and the princess is now reluctant to have a subordinate, so she will have to give up a lot in the future. ”
