Chapter 84 Canonization of the Princess (Ask for Subscription!) )
The beaded sedan chair carried by eight people in the dark purple walked in the slightly bright sky, and Jing Shengwu in the sedan chair sighed low and calmed down his mind.
The words of Rong Chu that day are still echoing in his ears.
"The queen mother pointed out that she accepted you as a righteous daughter, the reason is unknown, and someone will come to take you into the palace soon."
Looking at a large piece of gorgeous and atmospheric palace pavilions looming in the blood red of the morning light, as if the ancient beasts lying there for eternity, people are daunted, the palace pavilions are all white marble for the steps, gold for the decoration, vermilion lacquer carved beams, the atmosphere is gorgeous and exquisite.
Jing Shengwu sneered, and leaned lazily on the soft pillow of Su Yu woven with gold thread. In any case, she has already started to walk this path, and there will be no turning back.
Jing Zhengming sat in front of the side on a vermilion sedan chair carried by six people, as if an old monk had entered a meditation. At this moment, the happiest and proudest person should belong to him, the queen's righteous daughter, what an honor this is, the Marquis of Qi'an Mansion is now a prosperous place, and Jing Zhengming naturally raised his head and stood tall in the court.
After all, it is good to enjoy the shade with his back against a big tree, and the Marquis of Qi'an's Mansion has been an official in this Heavenly Dynasty for a hundred years, and his power in the court is naturally not comparable to others, coupled with Jing Shengwu's identity......
Jing Shengwu knew it and smiled lightly, but it was just bustling for profit.
The sky was bright, and the sedan chair that had traveled all the way finally stopped, holding Xueyue's hand, and slowly got down from the sedan chair, Jing Shengwu looked at the exquisite palace in front of him and frowned.
Fengtian Temple.
This is the place where the emperor deals with government affairs and meets the ministers, and it is also the center point where the forces of the Celestial Empire gather.
Canonized Princess Changle, according to the regulations, she first met with her father Jing Zhengming to meet Emperor Chu, and then went to the harem alone to meet the queen mother and the concubines of the palace.
Fortunately, when she met the emperor, there were no extraneous branches, and Emperor Chu only gave a few words, so he let her go to the harem.
After all, the canonization ceremony was to be held in the harem, and at the moment, Jing Shengwu was going to part ways with Jing Zhengming outside this Fengtian Palace. Go to the queen's Fengzao Palace by yourself.
"Sheng Wu, be careful in everything." Seeing that Jing Shengwu was about to go to the Fengzao Palace under the leadership of the eunuchs in the palace, Jing Zhengming couldn't help but step forward and whispered.
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu glanced at him without a trace. nodded slightly, and then disappeared from Jing Zhengming's sight.
"Alas, unjustly......" Jing Zhengming couldn't help but sigh as he watched Jing Shengwu gradually disappear among the pavilions, as if he was ten years old at this moment.
Eventually. He was sorry for her mother.
In the Fengzao Palace, all the concubines sit in two columns below the queen's throne, the queen lives alone on the queen's throne above, wearing a three-layer phoenix crown, and a huge east pearl runs between the golden phoenixes, and the ears are decorated with the bright moon of the east beads inlaid with fine jade.
Behind the crown is decorated with a golden phoenix, the phoenix tail hangs with five elements of pearls, counting carefully is afraid that there are no less than hundreds, each of which is round. On her body is a dragon pattern water cloud eight treasures court dress woven with bright yellow brocade and gold thread, and she is sitting upright. Sure enough, she has the demeanor of the mother.
Jing Shengwu stepped forward in an orderly manner, knelt down on his knees, and lowered his eyes. She didn't look around, just waited quietly, and the queen above nodded with satisfaction, a smile on the corner of her lips.
Only those who know how to advance and retreat and understand the rules can walk in this palace for a long time, and the last time she came, she knew that this Miss Jing San was a really smart person.
Behind him, the second-class eunuch dressed in a dark blue sea cliff show group water eight mantles stepped forward and read the bright yellow holy decree in his hand.
"Carried by Mukden. The emperor said. Jing Shengwu, the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion of Qi'an, is a smart countryman, dignified and virtuous, and does not exceed the courtesy. Roujia Shushun, elegant and pleasant, Keling Neirou, An Zhen Yeji, specially named the princess of Changle, and often accompanied the queen in Fengzao Palace. Chin this! ”
After reading, the eunuch looked at Jing Shengwu with a smile and said respectfully: "The slave greets Princess Changle." ”
"Courtiers Jing Shengwu thank you to the emperor, may my emperor live long live long live." Jing Shengwu bowed respectfully, but no one could see the sharp light flashing in her eyes.
"In the future, you should call yourself a son, the saint gives the name Changle, that is, I hope you can be safe and happy in the future, and you don't have to live up to the hard work of this palace and His Majesty." The queen said with a smile on her lips and a little meaning.
Hearing this, Jing Shengwu knelt on the ground respectfully, and gave the queen the three bows and three buckles, but only bowed and bowed two times to the concubines.
Emperor Chu did not have many concubines in the harem, except for the deceased Concubine Xi and Concubine Duan, now there are only Concubine De, Concubine Jing and Concubine Shu, and the rest are some nobles and beauties, promises and the like.
Sitting on the top left is Concubine De, who is wearing a red dress with a hundred butterflies and phoenix flowers, wearing a crown of gold silk coil beads, holding a branch of gold silk eight treasure roses and begonias and shaking them in two steps, and the fine jade beads on it are finely and densely hanging down next to Concubine De's face.
In the center of the pearl crown pan mantle, and also the largest golden mantle, there is a string of shark beads from the South China Sea tribute, which happens to hang down between the eyebrows of Concubine De, which is really shining brightly, full of pearls, this outfit just rightly sets off the beauty of Concubine De, but it also grabs people's eyes and ears.
Although the queen who is now over ten years old is also a beautiful woman, she is not more than a star and a half behind Concubine De in terms of dress, the queen's dress is generous, and although Concubine De is also very luxurious, it is even more charming.
"Changle has seen Concubine De Niangniang, Concubine De Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an." As he spoke, he bowed deeply to Concubine De, who was on the upper left.
The regulation of canonization is to pay homage to these high-ranking concubines one by one.
"Alas, this queen is tempted to accept talents as righteous daughters, and it really looks different, she is really a beauty."
Concubine De didn't let Jing Shengwu get up immediately, but just looked her up and down.
"Hehe, Princess Changle was ordered by the emperor to let this palace be accepted as a righteous daughter, and she is also very close to this palace, so naturally she will not be bad." The queen looked at Concubine De and smiled slightly, her bearing was generous and natural.
"Really? It seems that there are a lot of people who fall in love with the mother, and if a girl comes here, she can enter the eyes of the mother, and I don't know when the concubine will be blessed and can have a child. ”
"Oh? Where does my sister start with this, although this princess Changle is not from this palace, she is not a casual official girl, the eldest daughter of the Hou Mansion of Qi'an, and her identity is naturally incomparable to ordinary girls. The queen heard the sarcasm in Concubine De's mouth, frowned and said.
"Besides. Now that she is the princess of Changle canonized by Her Majesty's decree, Concubine De must be cautious in her words and deeds, and do not question Her Majesty's decision. ”
"Yes, the concubine has been taught." Concubine De saw that the queen was holding on to a little mistake. I didn't think it was very fast, but I thought that the current emperor was not in the harem, and if I fought, I wouldn't be able to get a good result, so I had to endure it and say.
Just let the queen be proud for a while, why not?
Thinking so. I was also a little happier in my heart, in the end, I am young and beautiful, is it possible that I will lose to the old and decrepit queen? Only then did he turn his gaze to Jing Shengwu, who was still blessed: "Princess Changle, let's be flat." ”
Concubine De looked at her carefully, and immediately had a plan in her heart. It seems that this Jing Shengwu is not a simple character, at least the dress and temperament on this body are all first-class standouts.
"It's a good color." After finishing speaking, he didn't bother to say anything more to Jing Shengwu, so he just leaned lazily on the chair of the golden silk nanmu, shaking the jade-handled Jinchuan fan in his hand, a picture of mesmery.
Look at the other concubines. Which one is not sitting upright, looking at the nose and nose, and the nose is looking at the heart, without the slightest lazy look, it seems that this concubine is really arrogant in the palace, and even dares to be presumptuous in front of the queen.
It's just that......
Jing Shengwu frowned slightly after getting up, he had maintained a half-blessed posture for a long time, half of his body was a little sore, and now he got up suddenly, and he felt very uncomfortable. But because of the canonization ceremony in the palace, she couldn't make the slightest difference.
It seems that this Concubine De is holding a grudge, and the Liang Zi at the Qianqiu banquet can be regarded as dead.
He also gave a salute to Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing. These two ladies are kind, and they didn't deliberately embarrass her like Concubine De, and after thinking about it, they understood that no matter what, Concubine Shu was all the way with the queen, so it was naturally not good to embarrass herself in front of the queen, and Concubine Jing has always been wise in the palace to protect herself. is quiet and rarely spoken, but it is this indisputable temperament, but he sits firmly on the throne of the concubine, and it will not make sense if there is no means to excel.
"Okay, now you've seen all the little masters, so take a seat." Seeing that Jing Shengwu finished the salute and rewarded a white jade Ruyi, the queen spoke.
"Yes." The head of the line is answered.
Jing Shengwu thanked him again, and sat down on the golden silk nanmu chair at the bottom of the right.
"Hey, I'm busy getting up early this morning, and now I've been talking to the queen for so long, the concubine can't stand it, if the mother has nothing to do, the concubine will leave first." While Jing Shengwu was looking at everyone on the seat, Concubine De held her hair in a bun and said lazily.
Hearing this, the queen's face was a little unbearable, now Concubine De is in the palace like the sky, the emperor's favor is needless to mention, so the power of the six palaces is almost in the hands of Concubine De, today Jing Shengwu entered the palace for the canonization ceremony, it should have been the queen mother to preside over the details, but it was Concubine De who was busy, although the queen did not say it, but it was not very refreshing to feel it in her heart.
Jing Shengwu looked at the delicate Concubine De, but she had her own plans in her heart, because she was the righteous daughter of the queen's mother, she was afraid that she would die with the concubine's Liangzi, and the queen couldn't be too relieved.
"How can a woman who can be pampered really have no scheming."
Rong Chu's words were still echoing in his ears that day, and Jing Shengwu couldn't help frowning. It seems that in the future, I am afraid that my life in the palace will not be peaceful.
"If my sister is tired, go back to the palace to rest, if my sister is not in good health and can't take this important responsibility, it will be up to the palace to be busy in the future." The queen mother looked at Concubine De and said with concern, but the meaning of those words made Concubine De's face change for a while.
"Thank you for the queen's compassion, the concubine is just a little lazy for a while, and it will be good to rest for a while after returning to the palace, after all, it is young and fatigue is better, if you change the queen's mother, I am afraid that I will have to rest for a few more days."
Concubine De said with a smile, but Jing Shengwu couldn't help frowning. The queen is over thirty years old, and although she is a beautiful woman, she is not as young as the princess who has been in her teens for ten years, which is probably a sore spot in the queen's heart.
Sure enough, hearing Concubine De speak like this, the queen's face was a little ugly, but in the end, she was the mother of a country, so she quickly calmed down, and covered up this matter with a light smile.
After Concubine De got up and left, Wang Meiren also took Princess Liangyu to retire, and Wen Guiren and Fang promised to follow.
"Concubine De is a little too rampant today, I don't know how thick the sky is." Concubine Shu pouted disdainfully.
Hearing this, the queen's beautiful eyes were half open and half closed, and inadvertently there seemed to be a flash of ice and snow coldness, and she said slowly: "She doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and she is rampant, there are many women in this harem who do not abide by their duties, and it depends on which one can get a good end." ”
"Yes." Hearing this, Concubine Shu's face was scornful, and she looked a little embarrassed, she naturally heard the queen's words reflected herself with a gun and a stick, but her face was not good.
"There is always a little less popularity in this Fengzao Palace, and now that Changle is here, it makes the palace happy, Leng Xiang, you go and clean up the east side hall and let Princess Changle live in it." The queen changed her words and instructed her aunt beside her.
"Yes." Leng Xiang nodded in agreement and took someone away.
This cold fragrance is the henchman aunt of the queen's mother, she is a family slave who grew up with the queen's mother since she was a child, and later entered the palace as an aunt, and she can be regarded as representing the queen's face in the palace.
Concubine Shu looked at the tired look on the queen's face, so she didn't say anything more, and after gossiping with the queen, she took the palace people back to the palace.
"If the queen mother has nothing to order, Erchen will also go to the east hall to arrange, presumably there are a lot of chores there, and Erchen can also help Aunt Leng Xiang when he goes."
"Don't be in a hurry to leave, this palace still has some considerate things to say to you, you have also seen the situation of Concubine De today, what do you think in your heart?" The queen went straight to the point, but Jing Shengwu was taken aback.
Concubine De and herself must be as powerful as water and fire, which has been doomed since she became the righteous daughter of the queen's mother. Moreover, at the Qianqiu banquet that day, she also offended Concubine De, and she saw that Concubine De was also a master who must be compared.
Now, whether it is hypocrisy or hypocrisy, it is necessary to have a good relationship with the queen.
"Erchen thinks that although Concubine De is beautiful, she is a shallow-eyed person." Jing Shengwu groaned slightly, raised his eyes to look at the queen mother, and said word by word.
"You have always been smart, you must know that there are many flowers in this palace, and it is really charming to look at the flowers, but my son, you must remember that in this harem, there is only one flower that lasts for a long time, you must not stand on the wrong team." The queen said with a smile.
If it is prosperous, it should be the Kao peony, alluding to the queen herself.
Jing Shengwu covered the mockery at the bottom of his eyes with his chin, and responded in a low voice. (To be continued.) )
