The emperor's reward is very special and full of speculation.

You know, there are many tributes, in a month, not to mention three or five times of tribute, the things sent are also uneven, there are rare treasures, there are also rice, grains, melons and fruits.

Now, the emperor has given the tribute that was not sent to the palace as a reward to the eldest princess, and everyone is very curious, what will be paid today?

But Qingyun is not worried, it is definitely not a simple thing.

The emperor has a lot of opportunities, how can he be in the mood to pay tribute to some sesame mung beans, it must be a valuable thing, which will arouse his heart, but he doesn't know what it is.

Qingyun happily thanked the reward.

Next, it is time to give tea to Yun Guifei.

Only this time, they didn't kneel, they just simply toasted tea.

Yun Guifei, who has a special position in the palace, ranks first among the four concubines, has the queen mother as a backer, and her power in the harem can be said to be greater than that of the queen, but it is useless, at best, it is just a concubine of the emperor.

The son-in-law bowed to his father's concubine, which was humiliating.

But at least respect is still required, after all, Yun Guifei is an elder.

With the emperor here, Yun Guifei didn't dare to serve the shelf, so she took the tea and drank it happily.

Qingyun sent the prepared gift, which was naturally a pill, but it was just a qi pill.

Yun Guifei was a little speechless, and there was no one who gave a bunch of pills as a tea gift.

However, Qingyun's medical skills are outstanding, and the pills she prepared by herself are not comparable to the tribute, and they seem sincere, Yun Guifei just wanted to ridicule her, but she couldn't find a reason.

The queen mother of the people is happy to accept it, you are still a noble concubine, isn't this a deliberate attempt to find fault?

After receiving the pill, Concubine Yun Guifei rewarded her with a jade pendant.

The tea ceremony is completed here.

At this point, I have to talk about the affairs of the palace.

Although there are three thousand in the harem, the emperor is not a lustful person, so there are not many women in the harem.

In addition to the queen, the four concubines only have Yun Guifei. If you really want to talk about it, there is also a virtuous concubine, but she was posthumously sealed.

Therefore, in the harem of the Great Jin Dynasty, only the queen and Yun Guifei have strength.

There are few who flatter and win favor. There are even fewer vain attempts to compete for the position of the prince, you think, even the second prince from Yun Guifei, who is in the position of the concubine, has no hope, how can the other princes jump, isn't that self-destruction?

So the entire harem is very flat most of the time, once there is any contradiction. Eighty percent is from the Queen Mother, the Queen and Yun Guifei.

After Qingyun retreated to the middle of the main hall, the emperor smiled and said, "The etiquette between the royal family and the family is similar, but this tea ceremony is slightly different, the family not only respects the ancestors, respects the parents, but also uncles and brothers, there are many uncles in Chen'er, some are in Kyoto, and some are far away in the fiefdom, and they are too tired to marry yesterday." Ming'er wants to worship the heavens and ancestors again, so you can go back and rest, and when you return to the door, you will have time, and then let Chen'er take you to visit those uncles. ”

Qingyun nodded like pounding garlic.

At this point, the tea ceremony is completed.

Qingyun and Chu Bei retired.

Out of the main hall, I happened to see Mama Ji coming, she walked a few steps, rested with the big red lacquer pillar in her hand, and then beat her knees.

There are palace maids on the side who come to offer their courtesy. said, "Why does Mama's knee hurt, and it hasn't been windy or rainy for the past few days?" ”

Mama Ji sighed and said, "I put two more pieces of illness in the house at night." I can't stand it with my knees, I'm really old. ”

The maid helped Mama Ji to walk forward.

The corners of Qingyun's mouth hooked, and the bottom of her eyes flashed with a rippling light.

Chu Bei looked at her, and then at Mama Ji, he raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile like a poppy.

Old lady Jiang told Qingyun about it. Wei Chi told Chu Bei in every detail that Qingyun first used health pills to please the Queen Mother, and now he stared at Mama Ji again.

Mama Ji is the dowry maid of the Queen Mother, and she has been with the Queen Mother for half her life, so she can be said to be the most trusted person of the Queen Mother, and she may not even be able to compare with Concubine Ning.

There is no better way to gain someone's trust and gratitude than to be kind to her.

Qingyun made up her mind and started from Mama Ji to help her treat arthritis.

However, in the past few days, she didn't have that time, and she couldn't be too deliberate, so she deliberately curried favor with the Queen Mother's henchmen before she entered the palace, and the Queen Mother knew about it, which would only backfire.

I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so I can only figure it out slowly.

The weather was hot and sultry, and Qingyun had no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery of the palace, so she went straight back.

It's just that when I was about to walk to the dormitory, I heard a male duck shouting behind me, "Lift me carefully, don't scatter it, these things are a meeting gift from the emperor to the princess." ”

Hearing the three words of the greeting ceremony, Qingyun subconsciously turned around.

And then she was messy.

I saw a good father-in-law carrying two large jars of things.

There's a big word written on it: vinegar.

Don't tell her, the emperor's gift to her is two large vat of vinegar!

Well, when she got closer, Qingyun found that it was not two jars of vinegar, but a jar of vinegar and a jar of soy sauce.

Seeing Qingyun and Chu Bei looking at them, the father-in-law led by him hurriedly stepped forward and asked for peace, "I have seen the eldest prince and the eldest princess." ”

Qingyun's eyes stared at the big vinegar vat.

The father-in-law smiled and said, "The eldest princess, the emperor has an order that the tribute sent to the palace today, no matter what it is, will be given to you, this is the tribute vinegar and tribute soy sauce that have just been sent to the palace." ”

Qingyun, "......." ”

Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness, but I may not be able to eat all this vat of vinegar and soy sauce for the rest of my life, Qingyun howled in the bottom of her heart.

These two vats can't be taken by anything.

She glanced at Chu Bei, gave him a look, and asked him to send the people and the tank away.

As a result, Chu Bei said, "Carry it in." ”

A few fathers-in-law rested for a while, and then had the strength again, and hurriedly lifted the vat and walked forward.

Behind him, Qingyun looked at Chu Bei and said, "What do you want them to do?" ”

Chu Bei shook his head, "I just don't think my father will be so boring." ”

Stepping into the main hall, the father-in-law put down the vinegar and soy sauce and retired.

Chu Bei asked someone to open the vinegar vat.

Suddenly, a strong vinegar smell spread.

Qingyun sniffed and said with a smile, "It's worthy of a tribute, this vinegar tastes good." ”

No matter how good it is, it's just a jar of vinegar.

God knows, what did the emperor send them vinegar and soy sauce for?

Is it to make them jealous if they have nothing to do? Don't go outside to make soy sauce?

Thinking about it, Qingyun was happy herself.

Whoever gets a reward in the palace will be spread throughout the palace with a gust of wind.

Soon, everyone knew about the meeting gift of the eldest princess. It was a jar of vinegar and a jar of soy sauce, and many people bent over with laughter, and their cheeks hurt when they laughed.

Everyone is speculating, what is the intention of the emperor's move?

Guess and guess, you can't guess.

The results reached the ears of the emperor. The emperor's brows are almost wrinkled.

While grinding, Gonggong Sun asked the emperor, "Your Majesty, the old slave asked you what the meeting gift to the princess was, and you also said that you will know it when the time comes, the gods are mysterious and secret, who would have thought that it was a big vat of vinegar and soy sauce, the old slave thought about it for a long time, and didn't understand ......." ”

At that time, the emperor was watching the recital, and Grandpa Sun had not finished speaking. The emperor raised his eyes and looked at him, "Who told you that I gave Qingyun vinegar and soy sauce?" ”

Gonggong Sun was stunned, "It's spread all over the palace." ”

The emperor's eyes narrowed.

Father-in-law Sun told the emperor what he had heard.

With a "snap", the emperor threw the fold in his hand on the table, and said with a broken face, "Let the imperial dining room carry the vinegar and soy sauce back to me, the tribute I said has nothing to do with the imperial dining room!" ”

Grandpa Sun's face was full of black lines, and he hurriedly asked his little father-in-law to go to the imperial dining room to spread the word.

Besides, these two large vats of vinegar and soy sauce really stumped Qingyun, and she decided to divide them into small jars. And then send it out.

As soon as I wrote down the list of gifts, the steward of the imperial dining room came, with a nervous face.

When he saw them coming, he asked for peace, but he did not speak. It's just that cold sweat broke out on her forehead, for fear that she and Chu Bei would be angry, which made Qingyun a little puzzled, and asked with a smile, "Something?" ”

The head of the imperial dining room nodded his head and raised his hand to point to the two major cylinders. "The princess forgives her sins, it's all the slaves who are wrong, it's not a meeting gift from the emperor to the princess, the slaves have to carry them back to the imperial dining room."

Qingyun, "......." ”

The smile on her face stiffened, was this teasing her?!

She racked her brains and finally managed to gather the number of people to send the vinegar and soy sauce out, and he actually told her that she would be wrong and send the wrong thing!

The head of the imperial dining room knew that he had made a mistake and made amends again and again.

Qingyun blocked her throat in one breath, and she couldn't get up or down, and said, "Carry it away!" ”

As if he had received a **** order, the steward of the imperial dining room hurriedly got up and asked people to carry the vinegar and soy sauce away.

After they left, the magpie stepped forward and said, "The princess, Ming'er wants to sacrifice to the sky and the ancestors, or practice the dance again?" ”

That princess, Qingyun shouted that was wrong, she was still used to the magpie calling her girl.

Thinking of dancing tomorrow, Qingyun's head was big, and she looked at Chu Beidao, "By the way, let me ask the emperor what the last dance posture on the painting scroll was to be erased, did you ask?" ”

Chu Bei nodded lightly and said, "Asked." ”

"What is it?" Qingyun hurriedly asked.

"Destiny."

"Destiny?" Qingyun was a little confused, "What destiny?" ”

Chu Bei shook his head, "I don't know either." ”

Qingyun wanted to grind her teeth a little, "Why don't you ask clearly?" ”

She thought Chu Bei didn't ask.

But how could Chu Bei not ask, what Qingyun asked him to do, which of his things was not done with all his heart, but when he asked again, the emperor sent him away with a word.

Qingyun was very curious about what that sentence was, Chu Bei looked at her and said, "The secret of heaven must not be revealed." ”

Qingyun heard the black line in her head, "It's just a dance, can you use the heavenly machine and not leak it?" ”

Chu Bei said that he agreed with Qingyun's words, and now what the emperor wants to do, he is becoming more and more incomprehensible.

But if the emperor doesn't say it, he can't help it.

Qingyun looked at Chu Beidao, "Although the emperor said that it was the Mandate of Heaven, then do you know what the Mandate of Heaven is?" ”

“…… I don't know. ”

She knew that it was Bai Qian, Qingyun took a deep breath, got up and left.

She went back to the house, drank half a cup of tea, and looked at the scroll for a long time.

The green warbler and the magpie looked at each other, and the green warbler couldn't help but ask, "What is the mandate of heaven?" ”

Magpie shook his head, "I've only heard of the true destiny, but I haven't heard of any destiny." ”

The Mandate of Heaven, the way of heaven dominates the fate of all beings.

Qingyun naturally knows the explanation of the Mandate of Heaven, but what kind of dance posture she doesn't understand is called the Mandate of Heaven?

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure it out even after racking my brains.

Qingyun simply didn't want to, she got up and practiced.

I don't need to wear armor, Qingyun is not so tired when practicing, and because I have worn armor for several days, I have taken off my armor now, and it feels so relaxing.

Over and over again, as if tireless.

I don't know when, Chu Bei has already entered the house.

He sat there, drinking tea while watching Qingyun dance, very comfortable.

Of course, in the final dance, he also helped Qingyun come up with a lot of ideas, but they were all vetoed by Qingyun.

She doesn't know what the dance is right, she only knows that it will be very awkward, and the dance is about flowing water, and it comes naturally, and awkward means wrong.

After practicing for a while, it was time for lunch.

After lunch, Qingyun rested for a while, and continued to practice the dance, she seemed to be more energetic than that dance, as if she would not figure her out, and swore not to give up.

Just after she practiced for an hour.

The warblers and magpies carried hot water into the house.

Qingyun saw it and said, "I didn't ask for hot water." ”

The magpie said, "It was the prince who asked for it, and before he left, he told the slaves and maids that when the girl practiced for another hour, let the girl bathe, lest she be too tired and fall asleep in the bathtub." ”

As he spoke, the magpie walked towards the screen.

Qingyun's face turned red, and no matter how much she wanted to practice, it seemed that she couldn't concentrate.

The bath tub was huge, and the two maids ran back and forth several times, tired and sweaty.

Wiping his forehead, the magpie said, "The princess, you can take a bath." ”

Qingyun wanted to say that she didn't want to bathe, but looking at the sweat beads and panting breath of the maids, was she embarrassed to let their hard work go to waste?

She had no choice but to resign herself to taking a medicated bath.

In the tub, as yesterday, delicate petals were sprinkled.

The triangular copper furnace on the side is still smoking, and the clouds and mist are curling, refreshing.

The maid helped Qingyun untie her clothes, and then Qingying screamed, pointing to Qingyun's collarbone and said, "The girl was bitten by a mosquito?" ”

Qingyun looked down and saw the red strawberries on her collarbone and chest that had not faded.

Her face was embarrassed and red, a little annoyed, how could she forget about this.

She should let the maid go, and she doesn't know how to bathe.

But fortunately, the two maids don't understand anything, otherwise if they secretly cover their mouths and laugh, she won't be ashamed to death?

"It was bitten by mosquitoes, remember to smoke incense to repel mosquitoes tonight."

The magpie said, "The ointment is all in the Qiluo Temple, and if you don't bring it, how can you get rid of it?" ”

Qingyun got into the bathtub and said, "It's not painful, it's okay, you guys go out." ”

And the two maidens went out.

Just went out, and saw Chu Bei at the screen, seeing that his face was a little dark, and the two maids were a little scared in their hearts.

was about to see the blessing, but Chu Bei waved his hand, and the two maids obediently retreated.

Qingyun soaked in the bathtub, and when she heard the sound of the door closing, she couldn't help but mutter, "Rub some drugs on it at night and let you kiss it!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a voice came, "Wipe what?" (To be continued.) )
