Chapter 163: Tanabata

The women soon ushered in the first Tanabata outside the palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The traditional celebration project is just a needle trick, a spider should be a coincidence, a needle test and the like, to the end of the night after worshipping the Weaver Girl, but every year after playing like this, in fact, everyone has not much freshness, the queen with a big belly sat on the rattan chair, Shuangduo gently shook the fan for her, she thought for a moment and said: "This year is outside the palace anyway, it is better to have a fun in a different way!" ”

"Qinglu, come here!"

Qinglu came over with a lotus-shaped glass plate, and inside was freshly washed grapes.

"There are three days left before the Chinese Valentine's Day, let the children have a good time, especially a while ago, everyone's strings are too tight and tired! You go and bring me that rosewood box with rosewood......"

"Yes ......" The queen's treasure box is all superb, fine and refined, and everything that is inferior in quality, material, and taste will not be put in that box.

The queen's onion fingers gently opened the outer cover, and there were three layers of small drawers inside, even the handles were made of plum-shaped white jade, this box was given by the Queen Mother Jiang when Xuanhan was full moon, of course, it was not just an empty box, there were already a lot of jewelry and cultural toys and other things in it at that time, all of which were good things she had collected for many years, which showed how happy she was to the birth of her eldest grandson!

The box itself is also very exquisite, made of rare red sandalwood, and the real red sandalwood is ten sandalwood and nine empty! It is also a luxury to be able to make such a large box two feet wide and three feet long and three feet high with a whole Venus cow hair pattern panel, so the queen also cherishes this box very much.

I saw her looking through the box with her head down, taking out one from time to time to play with it, Qinglu leaned in and asked, she answered what was good about this thing, sometimes she couldn't remember the source of the thing, Qinglu can also say a thing or two, which can be said to be a pick, or a pleasant memory.

"That's it!" In the queen's white and delicate palm, a pair of mandarin duck jade pendants appeared.

Qinglu helped her push the drawer up first, and then closed the box.

"Mother has taken out such good things? Isn't this a match for a prince's wedding? ”

"When is it not giving? It's all my children......" With a satisfied smile on her face, the queen lifted the silk silk of the jade pendant to the light, and suddenly the luster was reflected in her eyes; This is a piece of Hetian seed material opened, just half of the black is white, black is like fine ink, white is like snow, the two mandarin ducks are not flat and thin, but round like a hemispherical body, the black male mandarin duck turns around and opens a wing just to wrap the body of the female mandarin duck, the double is matched together like a lotus leaf, the shape of the separation is also very beautiful and flexible, the most peculiar is that the eyes and mouth of the white mandarin duck are black, the eyes and mouth of the black mandarin duck are white, you have me, I have you, the harmony is extreme, not to mention the carving, Even the fine hairs around the eyes are clearly visible!

The more Empress Guo looked at it, the more satisfied she became: "That's it!" ”

"Also, ask someone to invite Biyou, Zhenglin, Zhengyao, Miss Wanyi of the Jin family, Miss Rui of the Cao family, Miss Siyu of the Yang family, Xun Gongzi, Yuan Xiangguo's Pei, and Feng Gongzi of the Su family...... Also, what was the name of the sister-in-law of Huaiyu's sister-in-law you mentioned last time? ”

"Ling Gongzi! Sixteen...... The slave maid went to see each other in person, and she was very handsome and dusty, and her character was also excellent! Quite the temperament of Uncle Feng when he was young! The slave maid told Mrs. Murong at that time, don't worry about Brother Ling'er's marriage in advance...... "The queen smiled and said: "How can there be someone like you, in case our Baoxi and Xuanhua don't get along, wouldn't it delay other people's such good children, or if people don't take a fancy to our children?" ”

Qinglu pretended to be aggrieved: "Where will there be a delay?" Our princess, the county lord and Biyou are all fairy-like girls, how can they not be loved? Even if it doesn't work, isn't there still the Cao family, the Yang family, and the young lady of the Yuan family? I don't believe he can pick a better one than them......"

The queen couldn't stop laughing, "Okay! I didn't really mean you, so go ahead and prepare! Later, so many young people came to the palace, but some of them were busy! ”

Early in the morning, the queen led a group of young people in a light sedan chair to the largest garden of the palace, Jicui Garden. When I turned around, I saw the handsome handsome, the showy, the delicate, the glamorous, and all of them were carefully dressed, with a good demeanor, a fairy appearance, and a dashing demeanor, and the people who saw it were happy to become a flower in their hearts.

Qinglu smiled and said to everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen, the queen said that if you don't celebrate the festival as before, you will use the name of Qixi to let everyone have a good time, so I thought of some novel games......

The construction of the collection garden is quite careful, the whole with tall trees and evergreen trees planted into a circle of canopy-like shade, the ground of green bricks and pebbles are paved with two meters long and half a foot wide planks in advance, and twenty one-meter-wide bamboo cases are placed in a large fan shape, each case is equipped with a rattan chair, there is a great return to the wind of nature, the queen sits in the middle, the left hand side is a child's seat, and the right hand side is a young lady's seat.

There are six or seven musicians in moon-white shirts sitting opposite the venue, and the bamboo flute is playing at this time, with the dulcimer simulating the sound of mountain streams and flowing water, almost eliminating the heat of midsummer.

"I have a special request today......

Qinglu said with a smile.

After taking their seats, the children and the ladies talked in a low voice, not knowing what the request was.

"See the agate plate and agate spoon on this flower table?" Qinglu was wearing a smoky purple round-necked silk robe, with a string of white locust flower tassel hairpins pinned to her head, standing refreshed, and gently flicking the handle of the spoon with her hand, it turned smoothly.

"When the spoon handle stops for a while, if it refers to a person, then, whether it is a boy or a young lady, you need to perform a show, or sing or dance, or chant poems and draw pairs, even if you can make a riddle or tell a joke, it would be better if you could play a tune! Anyway, I have all the instruments in stock today! If you can't take any of it, hum ......" she pretended to smile coldly.

"That's a punishment!"

"What's the punishment?" I don't know if the boy is asking.

"If you go up to the tree to pick the biggest and reddest peach, you can't let the eunuch help...... Two penalties for the wine of the Western Regions and a sea! She pointed to a palace maid in an apricot-red shirt beside her, holding a glass that was almost the size of her face, which was really startling! There were sounds of horror in the crowd.

"Three penalties, you can't participate in the special "treasure hunting" link of the mother! Niang Niang ordered the slave to hide two pairs of rare treasures in the yard today, whoever finds it is who's who, and it's a pity that those who can't participate! "Today's children are Qinglu and the queen's favorite, and they are usually the sons and daughters of the family who are expected to be high at home, and they are obedient and obedient, and they want to be role models, and they have never been so relaxed and fun! I heard that today's game is so interesting, everyone is young after all, and the mood is gradually rising.
