226 Heavenly Steps
On the day of the first lunar month, the internal officials came to the East Palace by order during the day, set up the festival book in the Rouyi Hall of the East Palace, the incense case in the south, the female music in the inner hall, the honor guard was paved with a new arrangement, and there were two female officials who were on duty in the Rouyi Palace.
Mrs. Lu was busy for a day, very tired, Ling Xiang ordered her to go back to the house to rest early in the morning, at this time it was not too late, Yao Yang and the two sat on the steps, and they could still hear the sound of elegant music from the inner hall of Rouyi.
Yang Shuxiu saw that Yao Yulian kept rubbing her hands, and took out a pair of warmers from her sleeves and handed them over.
Yao Yulian took it unceremoniously and sighed: "I heard Niangniang say that she would choose officers and guards for those three girls. ”
The two of them are the same Geng, they are both eighteen after the New Year, they are already big girls in the people, but they are still yellow flower girls in the palace. The palace people must be twenty-five years old to be released by grace, and at that time, I am afraid that it will be good to be able to marry someone and continue the strings.
Yang Shuxiu was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "It's cold, don't sit for a long time." ”
Yao Yulian turned her head sideways: "My sister never thought about getting married and having children?"
"What is there to think about. Yang Shuxiu looked up at the starry sky, "Everyone's fate is doomed." ”
"Niangniang also comes from the folk. Yao Yulian burst out of a sentence.
Yang Shuxiu retracted her gaze and stared at Yao Yulian quietly: "Sister, I have always had something to say to you." ”
Yao Yulian couldn't help but be a little strange, this Sister Yang has always been a person who keeps to herself, and she has never taken the initiative to express it, and she has a warmer temperament, one cold and one hot, but she has become a good sister in the palace who depends on each other for her life, at this time Yang Shuxiu is solemn. It's not like her, and I can't help but turn my head to look at her fixedly.
Yang Shuxiu smiled gently, "It's like a mother's experience." Have you ever heard it? Even if it is not sung in the play. ”
Yao Yulian had a relative, and nodded again and again: "Yes, it's really good luck." Yang Guifei in the play, married to Tang Minghuang, is still an old man. ”
Yang Shuxiu shook her head: "Don't be envious, Niangniang is favored by God, if her fate falls on us people, it is impossible to get such beauty." ”
Yao Yulian pondered carefully. But it changed from envy to convincing, and said softly: "What man in the world doesn't love beauty, my sister is right." If the crown princess didn't generate that color, it would be in vain to bump into the prince. ”
"Appearance is important, but the methods of the mother are not learned by other women. Yang Shuxiu turned around and looked at the starry sky again, and the bright moon had not yet risen. The Milky Way in the sky is exceptionally clear. The stars are splendid, and she subdivides the morning glory Vega.
Yao Yulian couldn't turn the corner: "Niangniang, in addition to knowing some medical skills, she doesn't show anything on weekdays, and the means you said are ......."
Yang Shuxiu withdrew her gaze from the night and poked her in the head, "Look at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so fascinated that you can't leave for a moment, can't you realize something?"
The two almost bit their ears and whispered, but they were not afraid of others eavesdropping.
Yao Yulian flattened her mouth aggrievedly. "It seems, except for virtuous and virtuous virtues. The lady is getting more and more coquettish, but I heard that the lady concubine in the palace is more squeamish than the crown princess, why don't you see the emperor's favor?"
"All you see is coquettishness. Yang Shuxiu hated that iron could not become steel, but Yao Yulian's appearance reminded her of her little sister in her hometown, and her tone became softer and softer, "Niangniang is a person with big ideas, you see, without her showing her face, she greatly promoted her mother's family, and also gave a lot of ideas for His Royal Highness, even Mr. Sanyu couldn't refute it, this is her big ability." ”
Hearing this, Yao Yulian also had some approval, if you want to talk about the government, none of them can interject, after Niangniang is in charge, the East Palace is so rich, the people in the inner court sharpened their heads and wanted to drill into the East Palace, and the two of them were also flattered in every way, this bit by bit change, it looks inconspicuous, but in fact it is earth-shaking.
Niangniang gets along with His Royal Highness the Prince, and if she is angry, she is angry, and if she needs to be soft, she is soft, all of which are just right, as if she can scratch the itch of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at any time......
Yao Yulian thought of this, and said suspiciously: "The prince's love for the master and the mother, we can be seen from the eyes, but the mother is like ...... It's like wearing a mask, sister, you say, Niangniang has experienced so many ...... Could it be that you really like the crown prince?"
Yang Shuxiu was also a little unsure, and hesitated: "There is no woman in the world who does not love a character like the prince, right?"
Yao Yulian raised her hand and pointed at Yang Shuxiu, slowly opened her mouth wide, and her face was not smiling.
Yang Shuxiu suddenly realized, her whole body was burning, and she said hurriedly: "The love I am talking about is not the love of husband and wife......
"Isn't it?" Although she was covered with a quilt, Yao Yulian still felt that the steps were cold, and pulled Yang Shuxiu up, "I think it's just that it's too far away, don't be delusional, my sister and I are in the same mood." ”
The little demons who also looked at the nine days of peach can't eat are sympathetic to each other, but they don't gloat after seeing each other's thoughts.
Yang Shuxiu said again: "She is not only favored by the prince, but also generous to her subordinates, our servants in the East Palace, who have a headache and brain fever in the future, are not afraid of being thrown to the North Third Institute and wait for death. ”
Yao Yulian said continuously: "Do you remember Zhuge Fei'er?"
"Naturally remember. ”
"A few months ago, we were assigned to the East Palace to do a business, Zhuge Fei'er was assigned to Concubine Li's palace, who didn't congratulate her! ”
Yang Shuxiu said: "I know, she wants to come to us?"
"But our room is full, which round to get her. Yao Yulian looked at the figure reflected in the window, her eyes were full of glittering light, and she was still full of envy.
"That's fine, you didn't see it, Niangniang summoned her maids into the palace in order to promote them? ”
"Really?" Yao Yulian tapped her chin with her finger and thought about it, "In this way, we are loyal, and the master will also plan for us?"
"I see that the master is that kind of person, where is your little thought enough, take it early. Yang Shuxiu felt cold outside, so she came to grab Yao Yulian's waist and planned to go to the house together.
Yao Yulian threw away the warmer, and naughtily pulled Yang Shuxiu's face to both sides: "I can't see that my sister is honest on weekdays, but she has calculated everything!"
The sisters were making trouble, but they saw Wenqin come out and shouted: "Sister Yulian, Sister Shuxiu, a few of our sisters are on duty today, the master said that it is cold outside, let you go and rest quickly." ”
"Hey!" Yao Yulian agreed sweetly, knowing that Wenqin was going to get married, and the little taste in her heart was gone, so she picked up the quilt and threw it back to Xiaohuangmen, carried a sheepskin lantern, and pulled Yang Shuxiu back to the room with a smile. (To be continued.) )
