Chapter 60: The Full Moon
The Queen Mother had already asked the Shangyi Supervisor to make a set of dresses for Han Qing overnight, that is, a collared brocade skirt embroidered with blue hydrangeas inlaid with purple gold on a turmeric background. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ The info dress is short in front and long in the back, and the antique body is cut above the knee, and the hem of the puffy petticoat inside is exposed in the front.
and a pair of pearlescent satin embroidered shoes inlaid with eastern pearls, which is very a bit of a mix and match style in later generations, like a little princess. Han Qing saw that she loved this dress very much, and praised the Shang Palace of the Shang Yi Prison, and the palace maid who designed the dress gradually emerged in the Shang Yi Prison since then.
On the day of the full moon ceremony, the Queen Mother dressed up Han Qing early in the morning, changed a lot of bead hairpin jewelry back and forth, and her makeup was also refined, as if she was dressing up a doll. Han Qing was also very cooperative, which provoked the Queen Mother to dress up Han Qing while being happy and envious, "If I have a granddaughter, I can dress her up like this every day, I don't know how wishful it will be!" β
When it was time to get lucky, the Queen Mother led Han Qing to the East Palace Joy Hall. The ladies and ladies of the capital have long been dressed up and waiting there, and the queen mother, who appeared as the finale, and the jade and gorgeous fairy daughter she held in her hand naturally attracted the attention of the audience.
Although I was infinitely curious, after all, I had seen a big scene, and I saluted the Queen Mother with a solemn face, and put on a dignified and joyful look, and watched the full moon ceremony of the second emperor and grandson, until I entered the tea break stage before the banquet, and everyone gathered in a small circle in groups of three or five, and only then did they light up the burning soul of gossip.
Today's most beautiful is the Tao family of Jingningbo Mansion, first, we all know that the heirs of the old Chu family are difficult, and the second emperor and grandson are also the ardent expectations of the saints; Second, the grandson of the emperor only occupies the long word, but he is not a descendant, and it is rumored that he has been rejected by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the past two years; Tao Ziqiong from Jingningbo Mansion is the crown princess, and her identity is not weaker than that of Sun Jia, the crown princess of Huai'an Bo Mansion, and it is not yet known who will die in the future.
So those who are accustomed to drilling camps, as soon as the news of Tao Ziqiong's pregnancy came out, they moved closer to Jing Ningbo's mansion early, and at today's full moon ceremony of the second emperor's grandson, they flattered Mrs. Zuo of Jing Ningbo like the stars holding the moon.
Zuo is the mother of the crown princess and concubine Tao Ziqiong, she is not very old, her complexion is not fair enough, and her facial features are very ordinary, but she can't stand the spirit of happy events. She looked at Han Qing, who had been holding on to the Queen Mother, and asked, "That's the famous third girl of the Xie family, the only granddaughter of the Rongguo Mansion?" β
The person next to him immediately answered, "It's not her, now we can see the real face, look at this appearance and charm, that is, the nobles in Beijing are not as good, and they can't complain that from the royal family to the Xie family and the Han family, they are all spoiled as treasures!" β
The other said in a slightly sour tone, and a little provocatively, "No matter what, you can't act so flamboyantly on the day of our little highness's big day, you see, the queen mother and others treat her like a heart, liver, liver, and flesh, that is someone else's granddaughter, but her own great-grandson is going to be behind!" β
Zuo naturally heard the meaning of provoking, but she was really a little uncomfortable in her heart, she thought that her grandson was the center of focus today, but she didn't expect that the queen mother was only happy on her face from beginning to end, and she didn't even hug her grandson, but didn't let go of Han Qing and held Han Qing, what's going on?
So she pursed her lips and said, "Where do we dare to talk about the Queen Mother and her old man, but this third girl is indeed too public, and she is obviously a spoiled girl." β
Everyone also saw her dissatisfaction, and their hearts jumped to see the excitement, but when they looked up, they saw another group of people walking this way. The leader is none other than the wife of the prince of Huai'an Bofu, Bao. From Jinghe 15 years to the present, the Bao family is like a roller coaster, experiencing the fanatical pursuit of the ladies in the capital, and also experiencing many people silently turning their faces, and now the East Palace has given birth to a second emperor grandson who is like an old enemy, and his heart is so blocked that he is almost angry.
However, the Bao family is well versed in the truth that losing people does not lose the battle, and today he is dressed up two points more dazzling than Zuo's, which is almost suspected of smashing the field. "Congratulations to Mrs. Bo for her grandson."
Zuo raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart that feng shui rotated, and it didn't take two years for this sentence to come out of your mouth, so it was so refreshing, so he raised his voice and said, "Tongxi, Tongxi, Mrs. Shizi has also experienced it, and we are all stained with the light of His Royal Highness the Prince." β
Bao smiled brightly, "No, now that our eldest grandson has a younger brother to accompany us, there will definitely be more younger brothers to accompany him in the future!" β
Zuo was choked by Bao's family, and he didn't want to give her face anymore, so he snorted arrogantly and turned his head to lead people away. Bao couldn't help but sneer, "Anyway, we still have a long time, see how long you can be arrogant!" β
Han Qing was personally led by the Queen Mother, and saw all the noblewomen and noblewomen in the capital, and she never forgot it, otherwise these hundreds of people would have been blindfolded a long time ago. Finally, the Queen Mother saw that people were almost there, so she asked her to go to the little sister to play.
Wang Nianyue had been waiting impatiently for a long time, "Aqing, it's really hard for you, there are the most noble ladies in the capital, and you have seen hundreds of people in this circle." β
"It's still Sister Nianyue who hurts me, and my legs hurt when I saluted." Han Qing said coquettishly.
As if he was sorry, he said, "Let's go find a clean pavilion and sit and talk." They nodded in agreement and walked out into the garden.
Wang Nianzhu said with a smile as she walked, "You have returned to Beijing in time this year, today is the full moon ceremony of the second emperor and grandson, and next month is the full moon ceremony of my nineteenth sister." Then she explained, "My second uncle's newborn little sister is ranked nineteenth in the clan, and according to our own family, it is the third. β
He attached great importance to the news of the Wang family, and after listening carefully, he said, "Presumably, this little sister must be loved by thousands of people." β
Rosary nodded and said, "That's natural, my second uncle and aunt have been looking forward to it for many years, and the eleventh brother is 11 years old, so he gave birth to this little sister again, and my grandfather has already named it Nianzhen." β
Nian Yue joked on the side, "There are many happy events these days, and after the year, not only the eldest brother of the Xie family will participate in the Spring Festival, but we will also have many good sisters-in-law." β
Wanran blushed and said, "Sister Nianyue, why do you want to make fun of me." β
Nian Yue said, "Where do you dare to make fun of you, you can still call me a few times Sister Nian Yue now, I will call you upside down for the New Year." β
It's like being two years older now, although he is still naΓ―ve, he has also learned to play a round game, "Speaking of which, it's not good to be a daughter-in-law, you see that Sister Jianing was able to play with us before, but now she has to greet those ladies by my mother's side, which is so boring." β
Everyone looked at Yuan Jianing, who was following Cui's side, and they all sighed, chatted and walked forward.
"You said in your letter that Sister Danting is the same as my seventh sister, and the wedding date is set for the next year, and I don't know which family the other party is?" Nian Yue asked.
"It's Shang Yun, the second son of the Shang family of the prefect of Suzhou, and according to my brother, he is still a good person." Wanran said.
The rosary then asked, "What about the Wei Gongzi that my seventh sister has set?" β
Han Qing sneered, "This fourth young master of the governor's family, Wei Hao, looks more handsome." β
Rosary smiled and pinched Han Qing: "My seventh brother-in-law, you dare to arrange it!" β
Han Qing smiled and dodged, "It's better than growing into an ugly monster." "In fact, I thought in my heart that marrying Wei Hao was thousands of times stronger than marrying the second young master of the Ke family in the Zhenguo Mansion in his previous life!
A few people were laughing, and a few girls walked in from outside, it was Miss Zhu Si and Miss Sun Er, who were showing off their power in the Xie family, who led several other noble ladies.
"Who should I be, it turns out that it is Wang Jiu, you are leading people to occupy the pavilion here!"
"Zhu Si, you don't find fault here, today is the full moon ceremony of the second emperor's grandson!" Nian Yue choked.
The second girl, Sun Ru, rubbed the fire when she heard this, her father was transferred back from Jiangnan in a gray manner, and now he is only working in the Ministry of Rites, and she is already depressed in her heart. Now that the Tao family has come to the ring with the Sun family again, her Sun family has been ridiculed to this point in person, "Miss Wang Jiu, you are not young, I heard that you have already made a marriage with the grandson of the Fan Yang Lu family, why are you still so mean." β
Wang Nianyue has never liked to suffer losses, she was originally a careless, but she was misinterpreted by Sun Ru as canceling her grandson's family, and she didn't care if she would offend people, "Second sister Sun is older than me, and this problem of talking about other people's relatives at every turn, I don't know if the prince of Shengguo Mansion knows it!" β
Sun Ru's face changed, and many noble girls in the capital knew that Sun Ru wanted to marry the prince of the Li family in the Shengguo Mansion, but Luohua was ruthless, so that Sun Rudu was 16 years old, and he didn't even decide on a family matter.
Sun Ru's face turned white, nodded at Nian Yue, turned around and walked out of the pavilion, Zhu Xinlan and the others hurriedly went out to comfort, leaving Han Qing and a few people looking at each other for a while, and several girls couldn't help but praise Nian Yue with admiration.
