Chapter 5 The harem is like the sea, and the depth is bottomless
"Mother, is there any good place to go in this palace?" Although Chen Junyue said that it was not the first time to enter the palace, she was too young at that time, and she didn't remember what she saw. This time, it's like I've just entered the palace, everything is new, and everything is interesting. It's just that Princess Qingyang is by her side, so she doesn't dare to be too presumptuous.
This kid is too playful, I really don't know who he looks like. Qingyang shook his head helplessly and said, "Don't count on it today, stay in this palace with peace of mind." We came too late yesterday, and when breakfast is over, the ladies of the palace are up, and you are going to see you. ”
The concubines in the harem, they must all be beautiful women. Although she couldn't leave the palace, Chen Junyue had already aroused her curiosity, and she stopped making trouble at the moment, and obediently ate breakfast.
As Qingyang expected, just after breakfast, a concubine came.
Today's saint Jing Qianyun has only been on the throne for five years, and there are not many harem concubines. Originally, Qingyang took Yue'er to see the queen mother, but when Jing Qianyun was the crown prince, the crown princess left sick without leaving an heir, and the queen's position was vacant. And the Queen Mother is also Qingyang's biological mother, so it's okay to ask for peace later.
The first to come is naturally the recently favored concubine Niangniang, not to mention the favored, the status is also high, and it is only one step away from the position of the high queen. If you can give birth to a prince again, it will be the best. It's a pity that she only has two little princesses under her knees, so she naturally wants to come to meet this imperial sister, so that she can say a few more kind words in front of the queen mother.
Naturally, she is not the only one who has this kind of thought, not to mention her, the big celebrity in front of the emperor, even the show girl who has not been summoned by the emperor since entering the palace has also come over. Qingyang, who grew up in the harem since childhood, was also dizzy, and when everyone left, he asked the little maid to quickly rub her temples.
Now the energetic Yue'er has lost her strength and doesn't plan to go out to play anymore. Falling on the couch, his voice softened: "Mother, are these the concubines of the imperial uncle?" ”
"Naturally, it's not that the emperor has three palaces and six courts. Don't you always talk about it on weekdays and want to see it, why, when you see it today, you can't stand it? Qingyang also had no strength in his body, so he reluctantly said these two words, and quickly took a sip of tea.
Chen Junyue turned over again, and all the sideburns that she had combed in the morning were scattered, but she didn't care at all: "But mother, I heard that the concubines in the palace are all beautiful women." But here, don't say anything else, that Concubine Xu's appearance is really not as good as my little maid, at most she is not ugly. How can such a look enter the palace, or be a concubine. ”
"If you talk about appearance, Concubine Xu is naturally not good. However, she is the granddaughter of Taifu's relatives, and she is from a scholarly family, so her literary style is excellent. Don't you know that the edict written by your imperial uncle when he ascended the throne was the article that Concubine Xu helped him make. You are saying that this concubine is not worthy of this concubine except that her appearance is not outstanding. ”
Chen Junyue smiled embarrassedly, where did she know about these twists and turns, she just felt that there should be beauties in this harem. It's not easy to reply for a while, but it's rare to make Qingyang a little cleaner.
Originally, Qingyang planned to take Yue'er to meet the Queen Mother, but she didn't expect that the women in this palace were becoming more and more worry-free, and Qingyang didn't do anything else this morning, so she just cared about meeting these concubines with a smiling face. Now I really don't have any strength at all, so I went to see the Queen Mother like this, I was afraid that the Queen Mother would misunderstand, thinking that the Chen family was bullying her. Thinking of this, Qingyang flicked his sleeves and said: "Zhuli, you followed the little eunuch outside the house to Cining Palace, and said that because of the long distance, my body and bones couldn't stand it, and I was tired when I saw a few people, so I couldn't go to see her old man today." ”
Although Zhu Li is just a new little girl from the Chen Mansion, she is very clever, and she followed the little eunuch outside the house with a promise.
Qingyang was so tired that she sat there and fell asleep after a while. Yue'er was the opposite, and she regained her spirit after a while. Looking around the house, I just wouldn't be quiet. The people on the side were amazed, such a county lord had really never seen it, which county lord was not sitting there quietly, taking two steps to sit in a sedan chair, and moving a little was a delicate breath, it was really the style of the eldest lady. Like this master, he can't stop at all.
However, Yue'er is not ignorant of proportion, making trouble, but she does not dare to alarm Princess Qingyang. But it was not interesting to stay here alone, so I ordered the small kitchen to make some pastries, ordered the little maid to take them, and went out of the room.
"Miss, where are we going? The inner courtyard of this palace is so big, let's not run around, in case we get lost, how can we go back. "Yue'er's personal little maid is really frightened and scared, although the master also likes to sneak out of the house to play on weekdays, but after all, it is in Mingzhou. This is in the palace in the capital, and she is not familiar with life, in case something happens, how can she, a little girl, afford to pay for it.
Chen Junyue was not worried at all: "Zhuru, what are you afraid of, although this palace is big, there are always people there." Besides, it's a daytime, and there are so many guards watching, where will something happen. Let's just go out and have a look and find a good place to have some snacks, and my mother won't blame me. ”
After all, Zhuru is just a little girl, and what the master says is nothing, so she has to resign herself to following the young lady.
The palace is not an ordinary place, not only is it so big that Chen Junyue can't imagine, but the road is also tortuous and indistinguishable. However, after a cup of tea, the little maid Zhuru found out that her own county lord was afraid that she was lost in this palace.
Chen Junyue also knows, but how can he admit this matter, after all, he just boasted to Zhuru that he went to Haikou, even if he got lost, there are so many people in the inner courtyard of the palace, just ask, how do you know that you will come all the way, and you won't be able to see people when you don't know when. If I want to go back, I can't even remember which way to go back. Although it was still early, but going around like this, when they were afraid that it would be too late, their mother would definitely not let them go.
Thinking like this, Yue'er's footsteps are also non-stop, and she can't find her way anyway, so it's better to walk around more, and maybe she can meet anyone.
