Chapter 557: Love of Quicksand

The sun rose in mid-air, and the spiritual shed of Concubine Xian Niangniang was finally built. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The concubines came in droves, each with a sad face, just like a dew-stained lotus in Qingyi Lake.

Because of Tang Fei's rebellion, the life of competition for favor in the palace seems to have become much more difficult, especially for those new concubines who have not yet been defeated by reality, are pretentious and ambitious.

Not long after they entered the palace, Concubine Xian was sick in bed again. is because they have no friendship with Concubine Xian, and they are not even more sad about the death of Concubine Xian.

They are like fresh bamboo shoots full of moisture, who have not yet experienced the baptism of death, and they don't know what kind of wind and rain they need to go through if they want to grow into a long bamboo that stands tall in the sky.

Concubine Xian's funeral is more like a show for them.

A show that can make the emperor notice himself.

Whether it is the pitiful demeanor of committing suicide in white, or their heartbroken and crumbling weakness, or their remembrance of Concubine Xian and their sympathy for Princess Sheng Qiong, these have become their showmanship.

Tang Fei sat in the inner room with the sleeping Princess Sheng Qiong in his arms, watching their performance coldly.

Although there was no mourning music, the entire hall of Xianfu Palace was still shrouded in mourning.

This ancient mourning hall is also different from our modern funerals.

Our modern society has been invaded too badly by Western culture.

Although some Western science and technology are indeed more advanced than ours, it is enough to learn those high-end sciences.

But we don't, we don't care about the good and bad, the useful and the useless, we can learn everything.

From dressing, to festival customs, and even the process of weddings and funerals, all of them are according to Western culture.

Weak, poor, these are not terrible, abandoning one's own culture, this is the most terrible.

Because you are poor, you are still a person; But if you abandon yourself, you become a lackey.

I'm not alarmist, otherwise everyone should think carefully in their minds, isn't this the reason?

In the past, there was an idiom in China, called 'admiring the foreign and flattering the foreign'.

But now with the development of society, the word has rarely appeared.

Not because people recognize the importance of their own culture, but because they have been invaded into a semi-complete body.

The notion that foreign countries are better than China has basically taken shape.

To give a very simple example, we say that a person is fashionable and good-looking, and she is called a foreign-style dress.

There's nothing wrong with that, right? I don't know how many times I have to listen to what I say every day, and no one will feel the slightest bit wrong in their hearts.

The word corresponding to foreign gas is called rustic.

What is a foreign atmosphere? It's like a foreigner, like a foreigner.

What is rustic? It's like Chinese, localized.

Just look at this word, and everything else speaks for itself.

When it comes to foreign festivals, it is a fashion, and when it comes to some Chinese customs, it is a feudal bad custom.

Someone must have thought I was saying this too absolutely.

But it is undeniable that there are really not a few people in society who are brainless 'foreign moons are rounder', and it is likely that they themselves do not know the inexplicable inferiority complex in their bones.

In fact, China is really great, as long as there is less corruption, it will only get better and better in the future.

The mourning halls in ancient China are different from our modern ones, and they are also very exquisite.

A coffin is placed in the center of the mourning hall, and a tablet, incense tablet, white candles, and offerings are placed in front of it.

At that time, there were no wreaths on the mourning hall, and the wreath was actually a custom passed from Europe and the United States, which originated in Greece, and the ancient Greece called the wreath 'Schiphanos', which was a sacred object to decorate the statue of the gods.

Although the mourning hall of the virtuous concubine is not full of flowers, it is full of long mourning flags.

This mourning flag is not hung casually, but is very exquisite.

There are three mourning flags.

The big one has three zhang six, wrapped in white cloth, the sail length is one zhang four, and there is a white cloth strip on the left and right, which is located in the middle of the mourning hall.

This is called the dismount. It means that the people who came to mourn saw this mourning banner and were about to dismount. Of course, no one in the palace dared to gallop in the imperial garden, so the horse flag became the sedan flag.

On the right is the whole flag. In ancient times, people paid attention to 'taking off their hats and saluting', and when they saw the whole flag, they had to take off their hats and jewelry, and if they wore makeup, there were even palace maids who took a basin to greet them.

On the left is a tear flag.

When they saw this tearful flag, they began to remember the deceased and cried, which was also called a crying spirit.

Tang Fei sat in the back room with Princess Sheng Qiong in his arms, listening to the cries of the women in the mourning hall outside.

The cry was delicate, with a tactful aftertaste.

Tang Fei knew in his heart that these people were 'drunkards don't mean to drink', and the reason why they had to work so hard to keep crying was to make a heartbroken, affectionate and righteous posture, waiting for the emperor to see.

is a person in the play, why is he a spectator.

Although Tang Fei was depressed, he really didn't blame these women's performances.

just took pity on the little soft Princess Sheng Qiong in her arms.

For several days in a row, Tang Fei was guarding Princess Sheng Qiong in Xianfu Palace.

His mother, who has been dependent on him since childhood, has just passed away, and this is the time when this child is most vulnerable and needs help.

Since Tang Fei promised that Concubine Xian would protect Sheng Qiong well, she naturally had to fulfill her responsibilities and fulfill her promise.

And in getting along with Princess Sheng Qiong, Tang Fei also knew a little more about this little girl, and at the same time felt more pity.

The reason why Princess Sheng Qiong cried and shouted at herself was also explained.

It turned out that Concubine Xian had already explained the aftermath to Tang Fei, and she was worried that Princess Sheng Qiong would not be able to accept Tang Fei well after her death, so she made up a story with Sheng Qiong.

She said that she was originally a fairy in the sky, and when she died, she would return to the sky and become a shining star. And if she misses Sheng Qiong, she will turn into Concubine De's mother to visit Sheng Qiong, because Concubine De is the most beautiful woman in the entire Dayun Kingdom.

It is precisely because of this story of Concubine Xian Niangniang that Princess Sheng Qiong hallucinated after several days and nights of sleeplessness, sadness and despair, thinking that Tang Fei was really transformed into her own concubine, and it was her mother who came to visit her.

Because of the beautiful story of Concubine Xian before her death, and because of Tang Fei's sincere companionship and care in the past few days, Princess Sheng Qiong is now quite close and dependent on Tang Fei.

When Concubine Xian Niangniang was alive, she had the idea of passing Sheng Qiong to Tang Fei.

Although this idea was rejected by Tang Fei, it seems that Concubine Xian really said good things about Tang Fei to Sheng Qiong in ordinary life.

Being so wholeheartedly relied on and trusted by a child, Tang Fei also became more and more overflowing with maternal love, and loved and cared for this little girl more and more.

Tang Fei had never been in love in his previous life, and although he had been in the emperor's cave room for a long time in this life, he had never been pregnant.

So she didn't really like children very much before.

But when you really have feelings for children, Tang Feifang knows the mentality of mothers in the world, children are really angels sent by God, and their innocence and kindness will always hit the softest place in your heart without warning.

The relationship with the child is also like stepping into the quicksand, only if you fall deeper and deeper, how can you get out of it?
