Chapter 270: Talks
At the beginning of Shen Shi, he wore a purple makeup brocade jacket and honey color beaded plum blossom thread skirt, and the red sheepskin boots showed a corner at the bottom of the skirt, and the pearls of lotus seeds and rice showed a quiet luster. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhen Wanyi rarely wears this kind of dark dress, and her recent plumper face has been reflected by this dress to reflect a little of the charm of a young woman.
Qi Rong was dressed in a purple collar straight jacket, and a round cloud-shaped dragon jade pendant was embedded in the center of the purple waist seal, and a jade crown was tied on his head, which made his eyes like a bright star and handsome and extraordinary. turned around and took the purple makeup brocade cloak that Wei An was holding in his hand behind him, and draped it on Zhen Wanyi's body. "This is made by this king, the wind starts to snow again tonight, put on this fox fur cloak to keep warm. ”
Zhen Wanyi touched the thick fur in the cloak, "It's so warm, but isn't this too exaggerated?" The general cloak is filled with cotton and only inlaid with a circle of fur on the edge, but the inside of this cloak is made of fur, which is too luxurious.
"You have to use it, this fox skin is honored by others, and if you are willing to wear it, it will also give them face. ”
Zhen Wanyi pursed her lips and smiled, walked to the wardrobe and took out a piece of clothing, shook it open and put it on for Qi Rong. "This was made for the prince some time ago, and it is a New Year's gift to the prince. ”
Qi Rong looked down at the vertical-necked velvet brocade shirt, the silver line outlined the auspicious cloud pattern, and the collar and cuffs were rolled with a delicate hollow pattern, simple and generous without losing the nobility. "The lady's craftsmanship is extraordinary, and this gift is very much liked by the king. ”
Zhen Wanyi's eyes were crooked, and two red clouds flew up on her cheeks unconsciously, "It's good if the prince likes it." ”
Sitting in the carriage until the front of Xicheng Gate did not stop, tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve is still held in the Guangji Hall, this time is still early, it is reasonable to go to the queen's palace to meet first, but Qi Rong pulled Zhen Wanyi directly to the Guangji Hall.
Dozens of braziers were burned around the Guangji Hall to bake the hall as warm as spring, and there were fewer people at today's banquet than during the September Birthday Festival, all of them were dignitaries, and as soon as they entered the hall, Qi Rong was stopped, Zhen Wanyi looked like Li Changzhong, who was ordered by the Chinese book, and knew that they had something to talk about, so she took the two side concubines into the main hall.
There were already a lot of foreign women in the hall, and they gathered together to talk in twos and threes. Princess Jin greeted each of the ladies who arrived warmly. Seeing Zhen Wanyi and her entourage, she stepped forward to greet her a few steps, "Aunt Thirteen is really good at pinching the time, and it was the same last time, not too early or too late." ”
The two saluted each other, and Zhen Wanyi smiled and said: "Princess Jin's mouth is like honey, it is good to arrive early and arrive early, and it is wonderful to arrive late when you arrive late, and I am just right if I am not early or late." The red parrot helped Zhen Wanyi take off her cloak and stood within reach of her.
Princess Jin only glanced at it and then pulled Zhen Wanyi towards the crowd, "Duchess Chengguo and Duchess Anguo are all here, so let's see my aunt too." ”
Zhen Wanyi really didn't think there was anything to talk about when she met them, she thought that she could get a moment of quiet if she didn't go to the queen, but she didn't know that there were so many people gathered here, and she knew that she would rather come later. I bumped heads, and those who didn't know each other and those who didn't know each other greeted each other one by one.
Duchess Chengguo greeted first, "Princess Rong has been more radiant after not seeing her for a few months." ”
"Princess Rong has been in Beijing for a short time, and her reputation has risen, and she has heard it several times when she lives in Yiyang. It's decent to see it today, it's not easy to be like this at a young age. Duchess An Guo looked up and down before making a comment on Zhen Wanyi, but she didn't know what kind of reputation she was talking about.
Duchess An Guo is the grandmother of Princess Jin, and her age is the first in this hall, but she does not look old at all, and the sable skin with sapphire the size of a pigeon's egg is wiped on her forehead, and the white hair that covers her temples reveals a noble and dignified dignity that only a family girl has, looking at her kind eyebrows and kind eyes, but giving people a sense of distance, her voice is as loud as a professor on the podium, it seems that she is in good spirits, no wonder she can still run around at such an old age. This An Guogong is an old minister who has gone through three dynasties, and in the end he can send his concubine to the palace as a favorite concubine, and his granddaughter has become the concubine of the most promising King of Jin, and the means are not high. Therefore, with the identity and qualifications of the Duchess of Anguo, no one thinks she is arrogant.
Zhen Wanyi naturally doesn't think so, she grew up under the influence of China's 5,000-year-old civilization, at least she still understands respecting the old and loving the young, and she doesn't think that this identity is worth showing off and being high. It's just that this old lady is still seeing it for the first time, and the last time His Majesty came to the Anguo Mansion on the Birthday Day, it was Mrs. Shizi, it seems that this year's banquet night should be more cautious. "The old lady praised it falsely, your old name is like thunder, I didn't expect to meet today, this meeting made me understand what it means to be famous than to meet, and meeting is far better than being famous. ”
Duchess An Guo laughed loudly, "This old body is relieved, I'm afraid that Princess Rong thinks that it is better to be famous than to meet, and there is no place for the old body to put this old face." ”
Looking at the eyes around her who were attracted by the laughter of Duchess An Guo, Zhen Wanyi blinked, is this person unrestrained when he is old? Covering his mouth and laughing: "The old lady is joking, although the princess of Jin calls me an aunt, but your generation is there, and you are really my elder, I am the rough white ding, and I will never talk like this, the old lady can rest assured." ”
"It is said that the women in Jiangnan are as literate as men since childhood, and it seems that they are not bad, and Princess Rong likes to listen to it. Duchess Anguo's face did not change, and the whole person seemed to be very satisfied with Zhen Wanyi, and Duchess Chengguo and Princess Jin, who were standing on the side, also laughed together, nodding their heads constantly, and everyone looked like they were talking happily.
Zhen Wanyi didn't understand why this topic kept going around her, " I don't know how to read and write Miss Boudoir in other houses, I'm well, that is, I have been detained by my mother for two years, everything is a little bit but everything is not good, and I haven't taken out my hand until now, not as good as this lady in the capital, on the horse to play ball in the paddock hunting house, inside and outside can come, like the princess of Jin, the huge Jin Wangfu is well organized inside and out, this is not a little ability to do it well, which one of the people in the capital is not praised, the old lady is a good blessing to teach. ”
The smile on Duchess Anguo's face deepened invisibly, after all, the concubine is a noble concubine, and the granddaughter is the person who is most likely to stand in the highest position, which is a matter of pride and joy for any person in any family. "A daughter like Princess Rong is the proudest parent to be. ”
Duchess Chengguo answered, "Yes, now who doesn't know that there is a Rongwang Mansion in the Zhen Mansion in Anle Hutong in the east of the city, and I heard that the rain stones in Master Zhen's study can be used to pave the ground." ”
Zhen Wanyi smiled, she didn't think that Duchess Chengguo said this sentence abruptly was a compliment, even her father knew that she loved to collect rain flower stones, and she used them to pave the ground? Zhen Mansion's financial resources could still allow her father to do such a luxurious thing? Although she was uncomfortable, she couldn't lose her confidence at this time, "Duchess Chengguo is really joking, my father loves to play with rain flower stones, and the prince collected some and sent them, but it was too exaggerated to use them to pave the ground, oh, I know, Mrs. is talking about pebbles." ”
