Of course, there is no problem with collecting books. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Hongchen just doesn't say it, the queen can't forget it, when she entered the palace, even before entering the palace, the most envied thing was the collection of books in the palace.
Don't look at this lady who was born in the door, but she is particularly envious of those well-read women, who also love to read since childhood, but there are still fewer books at home, and what my father and brother like are mostly military books and the like, even if they buy her some books and travelogues, even women often read fewer books.
According to her parents, the women in the family read a lot, what if they become the kind of woman who is often sad?
The women of their family are born to endure hardships, and the men kill the enemy on the battlefield, not only can they not patronize the family, everything must be handled by the women, and they may die at any time, and when the time comes, the women can not only cry.
When the queen was young, it was the most chaotic years of the Great Zhou, with frequent wars, and the children in the family went to the battlefield one by one, and there was not one out of ten.
Later, the queen's father and mother figured out that there was nothing wrong with her daughter reading, at least when she was lonely and lonely, she could find a hobby to pass the time, so she bought her a lot of books, and her mother really liked it, and the collection of books at home was gradually rich.
If she said that she felt joy for the first time when she entered the palace, it was the banzai who laughed and told her that although she took all the books in the palace to read, it didn't matter if she wanted to read anything, even some secret books that refused to be shown to outsiders were nothing in front of the queen.
At this time, Hongchen is about to get married, and the queen thinks about collecting a single book for her in the morning, and the collection of books in the palace is indispensable.
There are also a few eunuchs with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes.
Most of the eunuchs in the palace are illiterate, but there are still a group of eunuchs who are not only literate, but also very good at calligraphy, and they are specially copied and written excerpts for Long Live and the ladies in the palace.
Hongchen remembered that there were two around the queen, who were very low-key on weekdays, and looked no different from ordinary little eunuchs, but they were all proficient in calligraphy, and the words they wrote were iron and silver hooks, and they could control any font.
Several eunuchs who held the pen respectfully presented a booklet, which was full of treasures in the palace, and there were no copies, so they could only copy if they wanted.
Hongchen took a look, and saw that there were many forbidden books, and there were also many forbidden books destroyed in the previous dynasty, so he simply took a pen and sketched a lot.
The little eunuchs didn't feel troublesome at all, and they took it seriously.
"Don't worry, the minions will do their best."
Hongchen didn't feel in a good mood, and his fatigue suddenly disappeared.
Some of these books and the ones she collected from the Jade Jue space discuss the same thing from different angles.
There are also some history books, written by people from defeated countries, people from victorious countries, and history books by bystanders, which will definitely be particularly interesting when compared to them.
Not only Hongchen, but even Luo Niang and Xiao Yan are also interested, these two don't like to read so much on weekdays, and history books are exceptions.
The female officials around Hongchen seem to like reading history very much.
"County Lord."
"Huh?"
Hongchen was lazily reluctant to look up.
It was rare that the sun was good, and there were no thick clouds in the sky, so Luo Niang and the others also took a break and had a day of leisure.
The master and servant nested in the conservatory and read.
The book also has a fresh ink fragrance, all of which are newly copied from the palace, and a few copies of Luo Niang feel good, and they are re-copied, not only for the book, but also for this pen, the queen seems to understand Hongchen's preferences very well, and the words written by the selected eunuchs are not feminine at all, but as powerful as a thousand jun, and the iron painting silver hook.
Luo Niang and Xiao Yan can be regarded as masters of Hongchen, and naturally they have inherited the preferences of 'master'.
There are a few masters and servants, it is rare to be so comfortable, and they are not very happy when they are suddenly disturbed.
However, the people in the county lord's mansion know their master's thoughts, and there must be something wrong with disturbing them at this time.
Hongchen refused to move, and Luo Niang had to stand up: "What's the matter?" β
"Miss Li Guogong's cousin handed over the post and wanted to meet with the county lord."
The maid outside is also embarrassed, today the county lord has ordered, close the door to thank the guests, no one is allowed to disturb.
In the morning, when someone from the palace heard this, they didn't bother about it, turned around and left, but this time the guest was obviously not so easy to dismiss.
If only it was just a cousin of the Guogong Mansion, the gate of their county lord's mansion could not be climbed by anyone.
But this Miss Biao still has an identity, she is the fiancΓ©e of King Chengjun, who has just been decided.
The face of the king of Chengjun, the county lord's mansion is not good not to give, that is the old prince, in terms of seniority, and the long live generation, two generations higher than his own county lord, if this is to send people away directly, I don't know what others are talking nonsense.
They are the current people, they always have to take care of the face of their masters, sometimes they would rather their masters be angry, and they still have to be reminded when they should be reminded.
This maid is a palace maid from the palace, and she still has some ideas about this aspect.
Hongchen was not angry, sighed, looked up at the sky, and said with a smile: "I always feel unlucky." β
Xiao Yan hurriedly snorted.
Luo Niang also said urgently: "Miss's happy day is just around the corner, don't say anything sad." β
She is looking forward to the best luck in her young lady's life, just in the recent period.
It is good to get married smoothly, and it is also good to have a smooth marriage.
Hongchen smiled: "Okay, let's go, go meet the guests." β
As soon as they saw the guests, before Hongchen spoke, Luo Niang and Xiao Yan were shocked, and the feeling was indescribable.
Li Guogong's cousin's surname is Wen, her name is Wen Xing'er, and she is also well-known in Beijing, not only outstanding in writing, but also good-looking.
Li Guogong's sister had an accident and had to marry a small businessman, although she had the help of Guogong's family, the family was not bad, and the business was getting better and better, but the merchant's family was not very regular, there were many concubines, and they all kicked their noses and faces, and they didn't take Mrs. Zhengfu seriously at all.
The young lady of the Guogong family was originally dissatisfied with her marriage, and then tossed it, and went not long after giving birth to her daughter.
Even if it is not for anything else, just to break off the relationship with the Guogong family, and to get the care of the Guogong Mansion, then this daughter is also very important.
The Wen family worked hard to get their daughter close to their uncle's family, and always sent a letter back every year, asking their daughter to live in the Guogong Mansion to contact their feelings.
It is estimated that in the hearts of the Wen family, marrying a second room and giving birth to a so-called sister-in-law is far less important than the in-law relationship with the Guogong Mansion.
The development of things does show that the Wen family is very smart.
After so many years, the Guogong Mansion still regards the Wen family as a serious relative, and the help that should be there is not a little less at all, and Wen Xing'er is also very close, letting her study with her own children.
If it weren't for this, the emperor wouldn't have met Wen Xing'er by chance, thinking about giving her a good future, and promising her to the dignified county king as a continuation.
Don't look at it as just a continuation, but I don't know how many noble girls Jingli wants to marry, no matter what, it shouldn't have been a merchant girl's turn.
This family business must be, Wen Xing'er can be reborn, and there is a serious princess's fate, which is a super product.
An ordinary noble girl will never be able to reach this point in her life.
It can be seen from this that Wen Xing'er should be so high-spirited, but when she saw it today, not only was she not radiant, but she was aging terribly.
This eldest lady looks five or six years older than the maid sitting next to her, wearing heavy makeup, and can barely see that her facial features are not bad, but her eyes are cloudy and dark, and the whole person is in a trance.
Hongchen was well-informed, and he didn't show any special surprise, but politely beckoned someone to sit down, let Luo Niang serve hot tea, and said softly: "Miss Wen came to me, is there anything wrong?" β
After she asked, Miss Wen over there didn't hear it, and she was in a trance.
"Miss, miss."
The maid sitting on the side gritted her teeth and bumped her own lady, Wen Xing'er suddenly came back to her senses, bit her lip and said: "No, nothing, I just want to congratulate the county lord, this, well, the happy event is coming, I want to ...... Hmmm......"
She was babbling for a long time, incoherent, obviously very difficult, and couldn't make up anything.
The maid was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, and looked at Hongchen with a pleading face.
Hongchen was not in a hurry, nor did he ask, and he also congratulated Miss Wen in a good voice, after all, this Miss Wen is a serious happy event is approaching, and Hongchen has not even decided the date.
After talking nonsense for a long time, Wen Xing'er never said what she really wanted to say, and hesitated to leave.
Luo Niang accompanied her master to see off the guests, and looked back and laughed: "What's the matter with this person?" β
It's weird to be so strict.
"Miss has always been a happy person, I see that Miss can't hide much in front of you, why don't you ask a few questions?"
If Hongchen asks, I'm afraid that in a few words, I will bring out the words in Wen Xing'er's heart.
"Why should I bother myself?"
Hongchen stroked his hair and said casually, "Besides, as soon as I saw this Miss Wen, I felt that something was wrong, and I probably had a conflict with her, or there was something abnormal in this matter, so it was best not to see her again in the future." β
Luo Niang and Xiao Yan didn't think much about it, after all, a young lady of the Guogong Mansion, even if she is the princess of Chengjun in the future, it is not worth remembering the county lord of her own family, and the most important thing at the moment is still their young lady's...... Trousseau.
The wedding is approaching, and I heard the news from the Ministry of Rites, and it seems that Banzai doesn't want to set the wedding date too late.
Although the Great Zhou Dynasty married a daughter, from the time it was settled to the time it was married, it was the shortest and shortest, and it took a year, after all, it was necessary to leave enough time for the woman to prepare the dowry, and the woman's family would also want to keep her daughter more, which shows that the daughter is very important in the hearts of her family, so that the husband's family cannot be humiliated and bullied at will.
But firstly, the age of the county lord of Rong'an is not young, and secondly, the emperor personally gave the marriage, no matter how decent it is, when to get married, it will not make people feel that the county lord is not valuable, and most of the days selected by the Ministry of Rites are less than a year.
At this point, Hongchen was noncommittal, and Lin Xu was very happy.
He was happy, Luo Niang and Xiao Yan were going to die of embarrassment, and they couldn't expect the queen to prepare, and they didn't care at all.
Don't say anything else, gold, silver, pearls and jade, there is no shortage of their own family, the queen is even more piled up, but the young lady always has to come to the wedding dress by herself, even if it is not fully embroidered, embroider a few stitches have to be done, looking for the embroidery girl can not be in the house, the embroidery in the house is good, and it is not bad in the palace, but it is just an ordinary embroidery girl, if you really want to embroider a wedding dress for your own young lady, they are far from enough.
"In any case, we can't delay it until the end, and really let the Ministry of Rites prepare!" Xiao Yan gritted his teeth.
The princess and the princess's auspicious clothes are naturally prepared by the Ministry of Rites, but no favored master will wear all the things prepared by the Ministry of Rites.
When the time comes, the Ministry of Rites will also send someone to discuss, if the woman is willing to prepare by herself, as long as it does not violate the system, the Ministry of Rites will be happier and save trouble and worry.
The two maids carefully considered to see if they wanted to find a few good embroidery girls from there to come back and prepare.
As for the lord of his own county, he didn't expect her to do anything big, as long as she could make some purses, handkerchiefs, belts, shoes and hats.
was discussing, and a little palace maid came outside to report the news.
"Miss, there is news from the mountain, saying that several spirit masters have not found anything abnormal so far, but the snow is very thick, and there are indeed many animals in the deep mountains flowing wildly outside, and they plan to go inside again."
"Hmm."
Hongchen frowned, exhaled and said, "Several spirit masters are experienced, so they don't need to ask for anything, but after all, it's in the mountains, so it's safer to bring more guides." β
If it's just an ordinary mountain, then it's not necessary, those few are masters, each of them can use a compass to survey the direction, and don't have to worry about getting lost, but if you want to go to the mountains, even if they have good skills, they still need to be more careful, and it's best to bring a few guides who are familiar with the mountains and forests.
"Don't worry, don't you say, those masters are the best spirit masters in the capital."
"Yes." Hongchen smiled, and then sighed again, "It's just that there are so many masters in one breath, and I'm more worried." β
These people, but she can not all come with a greeting, and she does her best, she must also be aware of the unusual sense of crisis in the mountain, so she poured out, the more capable these people are, the more uneasy they are. (To be continued.) )
