Chapter Ninety-Three: The Tea Ceremony
Duanmu Ji then remembered the far-fetched reason why Duanmu Mei and Xia Mingyu were very far-fetched, his deep eyes were cold, he clenched his fists and hit the table, he couldn't care about the image of the emperor anymore, and got up and walked out of Shuning Palace violently.
Su Ci looked at the sunken piece on the edge of the table with great curiosity, and was amazed. Stretching out his slender hand, he touched the edge of the table, and said in surprise, "Tut...... Disastrous! That's how angry it is to be. ”
At ten points in the last dynasty, Su Ci got up very regularly and wanted to go to the early court, until a palace maid leaned over and said respectfully: "Niangniang is going to get up and freshen up and go to the Jiaofang Palace to meet the Queen Mother?" ”
Su Ci's dressed hand paused, and then he remembered that he was now a murderous concubine, and the corners of his mouth twitched, pretending to be very innocent and said, "Can you not go?" ”
The palace maid raised her head slightly, stunned. This lady lady looks really captivating the country and the city, and her demeanor exudes charm. is more beautiful than any lady in this palace. Hurriedly retracted his thoughts, and said respectfully: "If you go back to Niangniang, this is not in line with the rules of the palace." is the concubine Niangniang, and today she will also go to the Jiaofang Palace to offer tea and say goodbye. ”
Su Ci pouted, his daily morning dynasty became a daily morning and dusk province to ask for peace, and he regretted it a little. However, Feng Dujin also went back today, and she couldn't help but have some expectations.
And in Zhaoyang Palace, Feng Dujin finished her training every morning and entered the palace for breakfast.
For a while, the palace was very quiet, and the palace people waiting on both sides also hung their heads in a regular manner. Feng Dujin stirred the meat porridge in her hand, frowning for a while, not that this porridge did not look good, but reminded her of Ah Yuan, the man who washed his hands and made soup for her every day, although the white porridge he cooked was a little mushy and the pickles were a little salty, but it was the taste she liked. She'd seen him for more than a month, and she didn't know if his injuries were healed. Are you doing well? Once some habits are formed, suddenly one day if they don't do it, they will become very unaccustomed. It's like Feng Xuan Yiyuan, he has become her habit, and now he is not used to her.
"Lord, today is the second day of your entry into the palace, you should go to the Jiaofang Palace to invite the Queen Mother to serve tea. I'm afraid it's too late! The chief eunuch of Zhaoyang Palace said cautiously to Feng Dujin.
Feng Dujin came back to her senses, glanced at the chief eunuch, and asked indifferently, "What's your name!" ”
The chief eunuch was a little slow to react for a while, and stumbled and said, "Minion, minion, little Mozi!" ”
Feng Dujin nodded, seeing his trembling appearance, a little inexplicable, but he still had to explain, so he said coldly: "In the future, all the affairs of this Zhaoyang Palace will be in charge of you, and as for the gifts received, it is best to list them as bills to this king." ”
Xiao Mozi was looked up to by his master for a while, and said excitedly: "Yes, the slave thanks the master!" ”
Feng Dujin straightened her black and purple robe, looked at a table of breakfast, and thought that the royal family was really a loser, so she said to Xiao Mozi: "This table of breakfast will reward you!" And he arose, and went into the inner sanctum.
Xiao Mozi was extremely touched by the master's compassion for his subordinates, who said that the concubine was difficult to serve, he was in a hurry. The concubine is a little colder, her aura is a little bigger, her eyes are a little colder, not like a woman, the others are still very good! I don't know that Feng Dujin is just afraid of wasting, but it's a pity that it has a beautiful breakfast.
At this time, the atmosphere of the Jiaofang Hall was a little dull, and the Queen Mother, who was sitting on the soft couch, had a dull face, and asked if this was for Mao! The noble concubine Niangniang has not come to this Jiaofang Hall to greet her old man, and even a group of concubines are unlucky, and they are all expensive.
Especially Su Ci, he is not unhappy! When he knelt for an hour, he should exercise, but Mao also knelt with a group of women. He couldn't stand the smell of rouge, and the smell of a group of different pollen around him made him sneeze "Ah ......"
"It seems that Concubine Shu is very dissatisfied with the mourning family!" The Queen Mother leaned on the cushion, held the teacup, and asked idly.
"Minister, the concubine is not dissatisfied...... Su Ci vomited blood, calling himself 'concubine', so awkward! He is a big man who wants to call himself a 'concubine'. Not only insulting his personality, but also trampling on the dignity of a man as a man.
"Really? What is the official position of Concubine Shu's father in the court, and the mourning family still doesn't know Concubine Shu's name? Through the beaded curtain, the Queen Mother vaguely saw a woman wearing a light white palace dress on the ground, and she hung her head and couldn't see her face clearly. If her father's official position is high enough, she can also be attracted to her side and used it for herself.
"Back to the Queen Mother's words, the concubine's name is Cixiang, fatherless and motherless, grew up in Piaoxiang Building since childhood, floated all her life, and has long accepted her fate. I don't want to meet His Majesty, and I have to be pitied by My Majesty, so I have the opportunity to enter the palace as a concubine. Su Ci slightly deleted the lines originally arranged, slowly told his life experience, and pretended to wipe his tears with an embroidered handkerchief, demonstrating a poor Qinglou woman very well.
The Queen Mother's face was cold, how could her good emperor accept a woman with no status as a concubine. She couldn't help but take a look at it, motioned to the grandmother beside her to lift the bead curtain, and said lightly: "Raise your head......"
Su Ci raised his head slightly, a pair of peach-blossom eyes were full of water, and his eyelashes were lined with a pair of bright eyes, he bit his lower lip lightly, as if he was afraid and seemed to be weak, his face was like a peach blossom, and his green hair was scattered, only a simple white hosta was inserted obliquely, a weak Jiangnan look.
The Queen Mother's sharp eyes shot directly at Su Ci who was kneeling on the ground, this woman is too beautiful! No wonder she was brought into the palace by the emperor, she was much better than the sick beauty in Xianle Palace! But it was precisely like this that made her unhappy for a while. The woman who is too beautiful is a scourge, which reminds her of the time when the first emperor hated her for a cheap person.
The Queen Mother settled down and said lightly: "Get up!" ”
At this time, the palace people came to report that the concubine was here! The Queen Mother couldn't help sneering, what a big shelf! waited for an hour to come, and the woman from Xunbei couldn't help but look down on her as the queen mother!
Feng Dujin stepped into the palace arrogantly, she was annoyed by Xiao Mozi's reminders again and again, so she came! She was calm and calm, and had no intention of kneeling, but glanced coldly at all the people in the hall, and then looked at the Queen Mother, who was sitting on a soft chair.
The queen mother was very dissatisfied with Feng Dujin's attitude, so she said to her close grandmother: "This harem concubine is becoming more and more ignorant of the rules, and she has no dignity when she sees the mourning family. ”
The close-fitting grandmother scolded loudly: "Bold! When I saw the Queen Mother, I didn't ask for peace. ”
Feng Dujin glanced at it, lifted her robe and sat aside, completely ignoring the old woman's words. She won't worry about old people, otherwise she will lose her own grade.
"Concubine, I can't help but take the mourning family too seriously." The queen mother was angry, she climbed from a palace concubine to the queen, and then rose from the queen to the queen mother. It has always been others who have been respectful to her, how can they ignore her and provoke her authority like Feng Dujin.
"Queen Mother, this king is only a form of walking today. Don't look for trouble! Do you still use tea? I don't want to come to the Queen Mother and I'm not thirsty! Feng Dujin said coldly, speaking extremely arrogantly.
"......" The Queen Mother was speechless, she was so angry that she couldn't say anything to refute! What is the form of walking, she got up early in the morning for Liwei. What does it mean that she is not thirsty! Internal injuries!
"Since it's okay, this king doesn't have to stay for long!" Feng Dujin is not interested in this group of women, she feels that it is a waste of time to sit for an extra second.
"If the concubine has something to leave, it is better to toast the tea before leaving. It just so happens that Concubine Shu is also making tea for the mourning family, let's go together! The Queen Mother secretly hated in her heart, and she still had the style of the lord of the harem on her face.
Feng Dujin glanced at the so-called concubine, who had looked carefully yesterday, and frowned for a while today. This white palace dress did not suit her, she felt that the red color was very flattering to her.
Her thick eyes seemed to be able to speak, as if begging her and seemed to be showing weakness, which made her a little moved.
Su Ci looked at those cold eyes, couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, and smiled shallowly. This smile blooms like a hundred flowers, and it is beautiful. I saw him pick up the tea cup in the tray of the palace people and walk to Feng Dujin's side, and said softly: "Sister, give you ......"
Feng Dujin frowned, only then did she realize that this beauty was a little tall, and she took the tea cup and said nothing. I saw her carefully tugging at Feng Dujin's sleeve, and said with anticipation, "Is it okay?" ”
What else could Feng Dujin say, she couldn't move her hand to the weak beauty, and brushed her hand away indifferently. took the lead on the steps, and Su Ci followed.
Feng Dujin impatiently handed the tea cup in her hand to the Queen Mother, who seemed to be intent on opposing Feng Dujin and did not take it for a long time. Feng Dujin glanced contemptuously at the Queen Mother who was full of headdresses, and impatiently put the tea cup on the low table with a "bang". I want to drink if I like to drink or not, Lao Tzu still doesn't serve!
The Queen Mother's face was dark, her breathing was short, obviously she was angry with Feng Dujin, and she pulled her throat and said, "Bold, what kind of attitude do you have." ”
Su Ci was helpless, he knelt for an hour, and his knees were swollen! Can you get him to do what he has to do? What is the strength of an old woman against an arrogant woman! Will you still be able to play happily in the harem in the future?
Su Ci smiled, handed the tea cup in his hand to the Queen Mother, and said cautiously: "Queen Mother, don't be angry!" ”
The Queen Mother was furious in her heart, as if she was intentional or unintentional, pretending to take the teacup and holding it unsteadily before Su Ci wanted to put it away, the hot tea splashed Su Ci's hand, Su Ci hurriedly went to cover the scalded hand, and the teacup fell to the ground with a "bang" and shattered to the ground.
"Are you trying to burn the mourners?" The Queen Mother said harshly.
Su Ci was in tears, why was he so unlucky! The Queen Mother sprinkled her anger on him when she had nowhere to sprinkle it, is this really good? But if he knelt down, the glass on the ground would not let him bleed too much and die. He endured it, for the sake of the murder plan, I put up with you!
Su Ci bent his knees to kneel, Feng Dujin frowned, pulled up behind him, and said to the Queen Mother: "You are the Queen Mother, today's move has been overstepped!" Don't do anything with a shi-status ......"
As soon as the words fell, he turned around indifferently, pulled Su Ci, who was a little stunned, and walked out of the Jiaofang Palace. If you want to ask her why she left with the beauty, she doesn't even know the reason. Maybe I'm afraid that she will be innocent and punished by the Queen Mother again!
