Chapter 67: The New Man and the Old Man in Cining Palace
Xiaozhuang wore tortoiseshell reading glasses, heard the voice and put half a volume of poems on the table of the eight immortals inlaid with marble, raised his head and squinted his eyes, and saw Rong Yue combing a neat double plate, a pearl on his smooth forehead, and only a few yarn pile palace flowers remained, and a piece of green jade lock with a spiritual bamboo pine crane pattern was tied between the neck, and a moon-white silk silk silk purple trimmed shirt was exposed, revealing half of the palace purple net yarn skirt, which looked like a delicate posture and weak and slender.
Xiaozhuang's eyes couldn't help but show two points of pity: "Child, why do you look a lot thinner." β
Rong Yue didn't see the old ancestor for a year, and saw a few white hairs next to the old man's sideburns, and the wrinkles at the corners of his lips were deeper. β
As soon as Xiaozhuang saw her, he remembered Xiaozhao, things are people, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad, raised his hand and stroked Rong Yue's shoulder and complained: "I haven't come to see my old wife for so long, maybe I'm tired of me." β
Because it was inconvenient to come in Rexiao, Rong Yue raised her head, wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "It's not good for Yue'er, and she will definitely come to serve in the future." β
At this time, only a hearty laughter came, and when Rong Yue went to look, she saw that it was a young woman, wearing a loose jujube red inlaid with black gold trim summer cloth robe, red soft satin foundation boots, a circle of coral beads around the small bun, black hair slightly curled and scattered, honey-colored skin, thick eyebrows and wide mouth, at a glance it was very different from the concubines in the palace.
The woman stepped forward and took Rong Yue's hand, looked up and down, and said as crisp as a silver bell: "This is the sister of Empress Xiaozhao who looks like a fairy?" Tsk, beautiful like a flower on the prairie. β
Rong Yue heard her simple and innocent words, and her appearance was quite angular, so she greeted her in Mongolian: "Hello sister." β
The woman was obviously very curious, and also talked to her in Mongolian: "I don't speak Chinese well, no one speaks, you can speak Mongolian, that's great." β
Xiaozhuang smiled and pulled the two of them to his side, and said to Rongyue: "You don't know her, speaking of which, she is my granddaughter, and she followed her aunt to ask for peace at the beginning of the year, I like it and keep her for a few days." β
She thought for a moment and said, "Wu Renya is the son of the year of the Emperor. β
Rong Yue knew that she wanted to talk about the prelude, and hurriedly said: "I was born in the first year of Kangxi and the year of Renyin. β
Xiaozhuang nodded: "You have to be a year older," he said and turned to Wu Renya, "I will call my sister in the future." β
Urenya stuck out her tongue: "Look at her smaller than me, she is smaller than me, she should call me sister." β
This naΓ―ve attitude made Xiaozhuang laugh, took Rong Yue's hand and said: "She grew up on the grassland, she is used to the rules, don't be weird." β
Rong Yue's eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a busy smile: "Where does the ancestor speak, my sister is straightforward and fast-talking, I can't like it even if I like it." β
While a few people were talking, Su Mo'er seemed to have just come back from some errand.
Rong Yue said: "I was idle, I picked fresh roses and lotus petals, mixed hawthorn meat, dried loquat, rock sugar, and mint to make flower tea, and I wanted to make it for my ancestors to taste." β
Su Mo'er said with a smile: "It's still Liugege's heart, the ancestor ate a whole rice dumpling greedily, and he was accumulating food, presumably this tea is very appetizing and clear." β
Rong Yue smiled and solemnized. Wu Renya was greedy and lively, and it was easy to come to a little sister who was the same age as her and didn't laugh at her, so she also retreated to the teahouse to prepare.
Su Mo'er said: "If you go back to the master, the slave has already gone to take a look, Guo Guiren is okay, the slave asked the imperial doctor, and said that there should be two days before giving birth." β
Xiaozhuang nodded, and the corners of his lips fell slightly: "Concubine Tong and Concubine Yi are also pregnant, so they shouldn't be jealous." β
Su Mo'er said: "It's hard for the emperor, I heard Imperial Doctor Li say that the Wuya nobles of Yonghe Palace are also pregnant for a month. "It's just rain and dew...... In the end, she also had a little embarrassment on her own face.
Xiaozhuang coughed lightly: "There are not many emperor's heirs, it is a good thing to be able to spread the branches...... Good thing ......"
The emperor came up with such a way to preserve the dragon fetus, one for each person, and no one should calculate anyone. Xiaozhuang was about to talk casually, but the master and servant looked at each other, and they laughed out loud in unison.
Rong Yue and Wu Renya came back with tea, but they were a little confused, so they had to laugh dryly.
Seeing the two yellow flower girls laughing, Xiaozhuang couldn't hold back and almost burst into tears.
Wu Renya stared at Rong Yue with wide eyes, Rong Yue shrugged, took a cup of fragrant tea and served it, and held another cup to Su Mo'er.
Wu Renya Gu took a cup and took it in his hand and said: "I smelled the fragrance when I soaked it, and I secretly tasted it, it was sweet, my ancestors didn't drink it, I drank it first." β
Xiaozhuang smiled for a long time, and when Rong Yue was worried about going to ask for a doctor, he stopped and brought the fragrant tea.
Suddenly, I heard the eunuch outside the palace say: "Long live the lord sent someone to send something to the empress dowager." β
When Xiaozhuang heard this, he called someone in.
Not long after I saw a pale color embroidery when the flag of the palace daughter carrying the box, because it is a person in front of the palace, and the figure is na, Rong Yue will look at a few more eyes, the eyebrows seem to be frowning, the beautiful eyes are picturesque, and it is more rare to have white and greasy skin, and the plain hand on the handle of the ebony food box is straight like a very fine ivory chopstick, exuding a warm luster like fine wax.
Rong Yue's eyes stayed for a short time on the silver hairpin embedded with southern pearls, the tail of the hairpin hung with thin silver horns, hollowed out and carved flowers, she couldn't help but sink in her heart, and she laughed at herself again.
Wu Renya smiled and asked, "What good things did the emperor send over?" β
The palace maid saluted respectfully before saying, "It's a new refreshment made in the imperial tea room." As he spoke, he bowed forward, opened the food box, Rong Yue obediently felt good, stepped forward and took out a cloisonne Fulu Bandai high plate, and saw that it was a very delicate goose oil pine roll and was busy in front of Xiaozhuang.
Xiaozhuang said with a smile on his face: "It's hard for the emperor to think about me." But he also looked at the girl in private, and asked casually: "I don't seem to have seen it before, what's your name?" β
Rong Yue guessed in her heart that the Empress Dowager had a general idea with herself, although Nanzhu was not as hierarchical as Dongzhu, but the beads used for the hairpin were round and shiny, the size of a thumb belly, and were worth a lot of money. She thought that the people in front of the palace served well, and it was not strange that there were rewards, but then she thought about it, this woman was born so charming and beautiful, **** in front of the emperor, so young and vigorous, the people who were conceived and pregnant by the harem concubines one after another, would they be indifferent?
The palace maid replied: "Back to the Empress Dowager, the slave is called Liangying." β
Rong Yue thought about it for a while, vaguely remembered the person who was slapped in the middle of the road that day, and couldn't help but look at Chun Zao on the side, the latter nodded, Rong Yue sighed in her heart, she couldn't imagine that the two of them still had this relationship.
She secretly observed on the side, and saw that the Empress Dowager asked about the emperor's diet and daily life as usual, and the good guys replied one by one.
Xiaozhuang's eyes deepened by two points, and Li Dequan may not answer all of them, but only said: "In the end, the girl is careful, go back and serve your master." β
Wei Liangying seemed to be slightly surprised, so he answered yes and retreated.
Rong Yue saw that Xiaozhuang's face seemed to be a little heavy, not as happy as Fang Cai, but said with a smile: "Cai Yue'er made tea for you, and Long Live Lord sent you snacks, the ancestor is really a blessed person, don't worry." β
Wu Renya smiled when she heard this: "It's really true to say this, Rong Yue, did you make an appointment with the emperor?" β
When Rong Yue heard this, she felt hot behind her ears, and she couldn't help but hang her head. Wu Renya smiled again: "Why is your face red?" I guessed it. β
Rong Yue couldn't hide but couldn't dodge, and was anxious to beat her, but Wu Renya hurriedly hid behind Xiaozhuang again.
Xiaozhuang was provoked by the two of her to laugh, and the eldest princess also clapped her hands and laughed.
After dinner, Xiaozhuang prepared to stay with Rong Yue and Wu Renya for one night, Rong Yue thought that now that she was older, it was not cheap in the end, so she said goodbye.
Xiaozhuang was reluctant to ask Su Yun to carefully send people out of the palace, and Wu Renya followed noisily.
It's only been a day since the two of them had played very well, if it weren't for Xiaozhuang to stop them, Wu Renya would have to go to Niu Co Lu Mansion to live for a while.
Su Mo'er saw the two of them retreat, and listened to Xiaozhuang and said: "Rong Yue has grown up after all, and she is very disciplined in doing things." β
Su Mo'er said: "Isn't it good to grow up?" Sooner or later, Liugege will have to deal with these things on his own. Seeing that Xiaozhuang nodded, he said, "Does the master want the slave to check the details of the palace maid?" β
Xiaozhuang thought for a while, and said: "That's it, Zuo is just the person picked by Concubine Tong, the emperor is fresh, I will insert a lever horizontally, and both of them will complain there, I just believe that the emperor knows it." β
Su Mo'er said again: "This Liangying's face is no sweeter than that of Rong Gege, why is Gege so worried." β
Xiaozhuang smiled slightly: "Although Rong Yue is also beautiful, she looks good, like a clear spring, I can see the bottom at a glance." But this good ...... It's like a charming cloud of beautiful smoke, but after it is removed, I don't know what kind of thunderstorm is behind it. β
Su Mo'er said curiously: "Will the emperor choose Yanxia or Qingquan?" β
Xiaozhuang smiled incomprehensibly: "It depends on whether the emperor is smart enough." She clasped her hands together and seemed to say to herself: "If Rong Yue didn't have good intentions and went to Nalan Mansion to visit the sick child, Nalan Mingzhu would not have helped." Buddha says that when you think of heaven, you will not deceive me. β
The cicadas on the trees are constantly chirping, which makes people upset, such a hot weather, I am afraid that even the beasts are too lazy to move, and Xuan can't help but complain, there is a bowl of sweet milk custard in the palm-sized snack box in her hand, she took a closer look, and saw that it did not spill out, so she walked along the hand-copying verandah against the wall to avoid the sun shadow all the way, and when she reached the corner of the corridor, she felt unstable under her feet.
She only thought that it was hot and dizzy, but when she was about to take a step, she felt that the sky and the earth were shaking.
Then the ground began to shake violently, and the walls and houses that shook the ground trembled and shook like trees broken by a storm.
She was shocked, picked up the box, and didn't care about the porcelain bowl! Slammed on the ground with a bang, screamed and ran into the house: "Gege! The ground is moving! (To be continued.) )
