Chapter 23 Tranquility and tranquility
Guarding people, Yuan Ziyan couldn't say that she wouldn't enter the palace, so she comforted Chu Ling'er a few words, and then helped her into the sedan chair. Tell the people who come to take good care of her, pay attention to keeping warm, eat lightly, and don't blow the wind or anything like that.
Yuwen Chengji led the horse to the side, looked back at the clothes on Yuan Ziyan's body, and asked with a smile: "These two clothes, if they are changed, others may wear purple, why did you choose this one?" ”
"Speaking of which, it was you who helped Ling'er and fulfilled the emperor's dream, and you will definitely be rich and noble in the future, and your grace is boundless." Yuan Ziyan thanked Chu Ling'er.
"I didn't expect this, but the purple shirt was not conspicuous among the crowds."
Yuan Ziyan was surprised when she heard this, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Since you know that I still have a distinctive body, why didn't you tell me at that time?" ”
The corners of Yuwen Chengji's mouth curled, and he said with a smile: "If you are greedy for fame and fortune, you will prefer the bejeweled purple clothes, and after entering the palace, you will be nothing more than a resentful woman in the palace." And if you are indifferent and quiet, or if you care about others, you will be in the palace in the future, and you will definitely serve the king with virtue, which is the luck of the world! ”
What do you mean? Yuan Ziyan was very confused when he heard it, and wanted to ask again, but he had already arrived at the gate of Qunfang Garden, and according to the rules, he was not allowed to go out casually.
Yuwen Chengji disappeared into the night with Chu Ling'er, but Yuan Ziyan stood in place, puzzled.
Obviously, Yuwen Chengji is helping to boil the soup and medicine, and sending clothes, and carefully borrowing clothes to test his conduct, which can be described as well-intentioned. But what puzzled Yuan Ziyan was that Yuwen Chengji seemed to be very loyal to the emperor in doing this, and even considered the emperor well in the matter of selection, hoping to select virtuous people and share the worries for the king.
However, Yu Wenhua in history, that is, Yuwen Chengji's father was the leader of the rebels, and he also killed Emperor Yang of Sui with his own hands, and finally the father and son were beheaded. It can be seen that Yuwen Chengji should have backbones, and he should even choose some bewitching women who are flattering to the monarch and the lord to enter the palace.
Or is it that the father and son are not of the same heart, and Yuwen Seungji does not support his father's rebellion? But I can't say it, Yuwen Seungji died for his father in the end.
No one will tell Yuan Ziyan what the truth of history is, he can't figure it out by relying on a girl's little brain, since he can't figure it out, he won't think about it anymore, anyway, he has to go back, whether he is loyal or traitorous, it has nothing to do with him!
Yuan Ziyan walked alone in the Qunfang Garden, the primary election of tens of thousands of people, yesterday was still bustling, side by side, but in the end, the people left behind are now only about 1,000 people, counting the personal maids, the total number of more than 2,000 people, compared to yesterday's bustling scene is a lot cleaner.
What's more, because of Chu Ling'er, she and Yuzhu were also assigned a spacious and clean single room, so they could sleep well at night.
Sleeping is actually secondary, Yuan Ziyan feels that the place here is spacious, but he can try the escape mantra to no avail. Although he is also in his twenties, he is still a long way from getting married, in case he is pushed into the palace by that Yuwen Chengji by mistake, and sleeps with a half-old man in his forties, hey, I get goosebumps when I think about it.
"Taishang Laojun, Yuan Shi Tianzun, help me with my feet, run to Taixu, urgent as an amnesty!"
Yuan Ziyan found the most spacious place, calmly recited the incantation, this time there was progress, did not fly, the speed of running was very fast, it felt like a drag race, but the result can be imagined, it has not yet reached the speed of transcending time and space.
Yuan Ziyan ran for another half an hour, and finally went back to sleep sullenly, the only gain was that he could gradually control the direction, up or down, left or right. It sounds like an ability, but it's useless for Yuan Ziyan, who wants to travel home.
After Yuan Ziyan went back, Yuzhu waited for her to finish washing, and the master and servant were both tired, so they fell asleep. As everyone knows, most of the others can't sleep well.
Why?
Because a rumor quickly spread in the garden, it was said that someone saw a running female ghost in the garden, her feet did not touch the ground, and the speed was extremely fast, and she could not see the appearance of people clearly. Some people also say that this female ghost is the stunning Jiangnan woman who was killed here three years ago, because she is so good-looking, there is no suspense at all when she enters the palace as a lady, and there are even rumors that she has the fate of being a queen, this woman does not know how to be low-key, and she considers herself a noble concubine everywhere, and as a result, as soon as she enters the garden, she attracts many people who are jealous.
The next day's primary election, sure enough, was selected at a glance, and there was no suspense. But it is a pity that this woman's blessing is too thin, and she died violently in the garden that night, bleeding from her seven orifices and her skin is blue, which makes people sigh.
The symptoms were very obvious, and it was definitely a death from poisoning. But there was such a tragedy in the garden, of course, no one was willing to take responsibility for it, but all news was blocked, only that the woman was suffering from a hidden disease and died violently.
There are newcomers every year, and at first everyone talked about it in private, but over time, this woman turned into dust and was forgotten by the world. It's just that occasionally someone will hear the sound of a woman crying in the garden in the middle of the night, and it just so happens that Yuan Ziyan practiced the escape technique, and was accidentally seen, so it was logical to think that the woman had come to complain again.
They were all young girls, not very bold, and they were so frightened that they hugged each other and trembled.
The next day, Yuan Ziyan slept until she woke up naturally, felt that her four bodies were full of energy, and she was refreshed, so she pushed the door and went out, but the people she saw were all with dark circles under her eyes and listless.
Hehe, didn't you just pass the primary, as for the excitement like this. Yuan Ziyan couldn't help but secretly laugh at them, but she didn't know that most of these girls stayed awake all night.
After the meal, someone conveyed another instruction, saying that there would be a vehicle to pick up all the good sons into the palace at noon to participate in the second election. If you don't pass through, you should go home immediately, and go to the mysterious palace for a free tour.
And if you pass the second election, it means that you can see the dragon face on the pilgrimage, and at the same time have a place in this palace!
Everyone was smiling, busy changing clothes and makeup, striving to enter the final sprint stage in the best condition.
Yuan Ziyan somewhat understands the next selection process, yesterday he looked at his physical appearance, and today's is equivalent to a physical health and bodybuilding status check. Of course, gynecological examinations are also indispensable, which is a top priority, and it is really awkward.
When everyone was assembled, they all stood in front of the gate of Qunfang Garden and waited for the carriage in the palace, the ribbons were fluttering, the fragrant mist was swirling, and it was really a beautiful scenery.
Colorful clothes, delicate and transparent faces, graceful and colorful figures, passers-by do not squint and peek secretly. Even Yuan Ziyan was full of emotion in his heart, if he was a man, he would be willing to be a daughter-in-law for a woman in this group of people, and they were all beauties selected from the whole country.
Just thinking about it, I only heard the sound of horses' hooves, and the sound of wheels coming from far and near. There was some commotion in the crowd, and the girls were all standing on tiptoe and leading their necks to look.
Two long convoys came ahead, totaling about 300 vehicles. The one on the right is dilapidated, similar to the family's truck, and I don't know how many years it has been used.
The one on the left looks better, but it's all half-worn drapery, and the wheels creak like an old man on the verge of losing his teeth. Of course, there are also a few cars that look luxurious and spacious, and everyone's eyes are glued to them.
Yuan Ziyan didn't understand a little, what kind of place is the palace, and the vehicles to welcome the re-election of the good family are too shabby, although there are a few better ones, but they are all expensive and beautiful, who should be allowed to sit? Or is it by status?
The palace people finally spoke, and the good families to be selected sat in a slightly better carriage, while the maids took the old carriage. In fact, for Yuan Ziyan, it is quite rare to sit on this thing, it doesn't matter which one it is, it is old, but it doesn't smell or something.
But others are different, and the quality of the carriage is directly related to the height of the birth. As soon as it was said that the carriage was divided into master and servant, everyone swarmed to pick a relatively better vehicle. Because in terms of quantity, a car can sit for four people, and it can't be sitting, so how can these girls who are eager to enter the palace stop?
So, you stepped on my heels, I hit your shoulders, and some fell to the ground, lost their teeth, and rubbed their jaws, which was even more lively than rushing to the market. Crying dad and calling mother, noisy and noisy, the ears of chaotic people hurt.
The ladies from Beijing, Luoyang, Taiyuan and other places have the cultivation to stand in place and keep smiling and unmoved, because in their opinion, the palace must have special arrangements for women of noble birth.
Yuan Ziyan's idea is simpler, you all pick up the good car and take it away, she herself wants to mix in the Yahuan team, it's best to miss the re-election time!
In the end, the quarrel of the girls attracted onlookers from passers-by, and everyone gathered more and more, pointing fingers and talking about it. Yuan Ziyan also felt that it was like watching the excitement, they were all ladies just now, but as soon as the interests were involved, the original form was revealed, and no one wanted to suffer a loss. The so-called upbringing turned out to be a matter of face, which is contemptible.
At this moment, a person dressed as a eunuch shouted with a cold face: "Stop!" ”
The people in the palace spoke, and naturally no one dared to make noise anymore, but you still stared at me, I stared at you, and my cheeks were bulging.
"The palace is harmonious and peaceful, so that the saint can take care of the government affairs of the previous dynasty with peace of mind and no worries. Look at you! The eunuch pointed at the orchid dissatisfiedly: "Whether it is an old car or a new car, as long as you enter the palace and become a pillow person on the saint, you don't know how much better it is for any sedan car." And you, for the sake of this half-old carriage, in front of the public, you fight for me, shouting and screaming, if you go to the palace, and you are still like this, will not the Holy One have to worry about you every day? ”
"We know we're wrong!" The girls bowed their heads in unison, their faces full of shame.
"Hmph, it's too late to make a mistake, bad conduct, this is the first taboo in entering the palace, you pack up your packages, and leave Beijing and go home immediately!" The eunuch waved his sleeves unceremoniously.
