Chapter 9: Entering the Palace

Fang Yage looked in the mirror, her appearance followed her mother's, small melon seed face, fair skin, her chin was not too sharp, and the bottom was round, forming a graceful arc. Under the curved eyebrows are a pair of big apricot eyes, but the corners of the eyes are slightly raised, the black and white pupils are clean and bright, and there is always a watery feeling, which is also where Fang Yage is helpless, even if such eyebrows and eyes are angry, they always give others the feeling of anger and coquettishness......

Small Qiong nose, the tip of the nose is smooth, the mouth is not big, the flesh is pouty, plump and ruddy. There was a small red mole under the corner of Fang Yage's left eye, she used to feel that this mole made her whole person too soft and not dignified enough, so she covered it up with fat powder, but now it seems that it makes her face more vivid. Fang Yage's appearance is not a country and a city, but as he gets older, the charm in the softness can no longer be hidden.

Bai Zhi listened to Fang Yage's words, hurriedly found the small jacket from the closet, picked it for a long time, and chose a bean green plate gold embroidered cotton skirt to match, the two colors have a unique flavor together, and Fang Yage caught everyone's attention the moment she wore it. The maids all marveled in their hearts, the county lord was so graceful......

……

Fang Yage dressed up properly, had breakfast, and went to Qifengyuan to say goodbye to his mother. Hearing that her daughter was going to the palace to thank her, Jin Rou did not stop her, and ordered Ermen to prepare the county lord's car and send her daughter into the palace. Fang Yage did not sit in the sedan chair prepared by the mother-in-law, but walked towards the second gate by himself, his body is too weak now, he must pay attention to exercise anytime and anywhere, and walk after dinner to eat.

The county lord's car was customized, out of the second door, the cuigai bead eight treasure car was already waiting, the little guy who drove the carriage lowered his head, Zhuang Jie took the first step to take down the bench on the car, jumped on the car, and Bai Zhi helped Fang Yage's hand...... Only one maid stood silently at the back...... But it turned out to be forsythia.

After the four masters and servants all got into the car, the little servant let go of the horses and slowly walked out of the gate, and there was already a team of guards waiting outside the door to escort Fang Yage into the palace. Seeing such a high-grade carriage along the way, pedestrians and businessmen avoided it one after another......

After crossing the moat, Fang Yage was about to get out of the car, in the palace gate, there was already a personal palace maid Qingyun waiting here, leading Fang Yage to enter from the left door, only to see a four-person bright yellow sedan chair had stopped at the door, and the four little eunuchs in Tsing Yi stood with their heads down.

Qingyun said with a smile: "The queen mother said that the county lord has just recovered from a serious illness, and it is not suitable to overwork, so she asked the slave maid to carry the princess's sedan chair, and invited the county lord to sit. ”

Having said that, Fang Yage knew that there had been no peace in this palace for a while, and besides, there was nothing wrong with his body, so he moved his mind to go, and said: "Having said that, there are still violations, the queen is sympathetic and peaceful, how dare she be pampered and arrogant, so that people with a heart can see it in her heart and say it in her mouth." ”

"The queen mother is afraid that the county lord will not will, and when she came, she specially said, can't my aunt feel sorry for her niece, where to put it there is no reason to toss her body to be sick in order to abide by the rules, if the monarch insists on refusing, then the queen mother can only give an edict."

When Fang Yage heard this, she no longer shirked, knowing that her aunt loved her, and it would be hypocritical to shirk it again......

……

Entering the palace gate, first is the open square, here is the place where the civil and military officials listen to the holy oracle, the highest building on the square is the council hall, the morning court is held in the council hall on weekdays, when Fang Yage arrives, the early dynasty has not dispersed, the sedan chair walks through the path under the stone steps on the west side of the council hall. Behind the council hall is the scholar's room, which is the place where the uncle summons his cronies and ministers alone on weekdays, and there are many daily reviews and folds here. The sedan chair passes through a vermilion gate, walks through the wide bluestone slab road, and then enters the harem, and walks to the west is the Fengming Palace where the queen lives, the middle is the emperor's Longyin Palace, and the east side is the prince's Changle Palace.

The sedan chair stopped in front of Fengming Palace, Qingyun stretched out his hand to open the sedan curtain, Fang Yage helped Qingyun's subordinate sedan chair, the threshold of Fengming Palace is quite high, you have to lift the corners of your skirt to raise your legs and step carefully, and the entire palace has such a high red threshold in the palace of the emperor and queen...... Thinking that the concubines come to greet each other every day, they must feel uncomfortable when they cross this threshold. Fang Yage entered the courtyard and saw red and white peonies in full bloom, with flowers and graceful and luxurious.

Entering the main hall and looking up, the wall in front is the screen of the Eight Treasures Lianchun, the bottom of a black lacquer 10,000 characters constantly around the head of the Arhat bed, covered with a big red background embroidered with five bats holding clouds and flowers of the kang mattress, two large bright yellow five flowers of the brocade pillow. The Luohan bed is equipped with a small table of black lacquer inlaid luodian, a tea cup with ten kinds of brocade from the old kiln, and a small hexagonal box of colorful brocade. In the middle of the room, there is a cloisonné three-legged elephant trunk incense burner, two rows of rose chairs with scarlet cushions covered with black lacquer, and his aunt He Peifeng is leaning on the Luohan bed and closing her eyes to recuperate, and the palace people next to her are gently playing the palace fan.

He Peifeng is almost at the age of not being confused, but she is well maintained, with white skin, willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and cherry lips and bright teeth. Today, He Peifeng is wearing the queen's regular skirt, the upper body is a dark green stand-up collar short undergarment, curved pipa sleeves, the cuffs are narrowed, and the waist is reached, and the lower body is a bean-green horse-faced skirt, decorated with skirt skirts, wearing a gold silk bun, with hoops and various colored hanging beads in front, and a cloud-shaped sideburn with a heart, insect hairpins and temples are also inserted into cloud-shaped sideburns, this suit is very luxurious, but the green skirt makes people a little younger.

Hearing the sound, He Peifeng opened his eyes, and Fang Yage saluted, "Yage has seen my uncle." ”

He Peifeng saw that he was busy getting up from the Luohan bed, helped Fang Yage with his own hands, and said affectionately: "Your body is not well, what are you doing with these false courtesies, your body is still uncomfortable?" Why are you in such a hurry to enter the palace to thank you! ”

Fang Yage was carried to the Luohan bed by He Peifeng, looking at the love in his aunt's eyes, his heart ached uncontrollably, and on the night when the thief forced the palace, his aunt committed suicide with Cousin Shuiyue...... Thinking of this, Fang Yage's eyes were wet, and he hugged He Peifeng's arm and shook it: "I miss my aunt, I want to come and see you sooner." Fang Yage knew that it was most useful to be coquettish in front of her mother and aunt.

Sure enough, as soon as He Peifeng heard it, he hurriedly asked: "I was so frightened that I panicked when I said that you fell into the water, but fortunately, Gonggong Huang came back and said that you were in good spirits." But it's really good, why are you so anxious, kid. Saying that, he looked at Fang Yage from head to toe with anxiety, and saw that although her eyes were hazy with tears, she was in good spirits, and she was relieved, but when she saw Fang Yage's appearance, it seemed that this child had suffered some grievances......

"Song of Songs, you tell your aunt, how did this good fall into the water? You have always been a quiet and obedient child, but don't tell me that you are greedy for fun......" He Peifeng grew up watching Fang Yage, no different from her own daughter, and she loved her very much. Fang Yage fell into the water this time, she must have asked to understand.

Fang Yage didn't want to hide it from his aunt, his uncle had to worry about state affairs, and he just told him about the inner courtyard, which was probably useless, but his aunt was different, women were always proficient in the twists and turns of the inner house, not to mention the aunt who was in charge of the entire harem. Moreover, there are other forces behind this matter, Fang Yage needs his aunt to know a thing or two......

Fang Yage told him about Forsythia and the same month and season, and He Peifeng's anger rose when he heard it, there was such a big thing in this eldest princess's mansion, and it made people install a secret whistle, but fortunately, it was found out this time, and Yage didn't have a big incident, otherwise it would be .......

This Fang Zhengyun is really uneasy, the emperor also has the grace of knowing him, if it weren't for the emperor's reuse of him at the beginning, how could a soldier become a general so easily, not to mention marrying the proud daughter of the sky, he was not satisfied, and accepted two aunts in succession! Now he does not distinguish between wives and concubines in the general's mansion, and he has made an aunt in the mansion in charge, which makes people laugh at it, and even the eldest princess's mansion is not peaceful, and he has taken advantage of the loopholes. But these words, He Peifeng could only scold in her heart, and she couldn't say that her father was not in front of Fang Yage.

"Don't worry, this matter won't be settled like this, your uncle and I will definitely make decisions for you!" He Peifeng said firmly.

"Uncle, please don't tell Uncle Sù about this!" Fang Yage hurriedly got up and saluted again.

"My good boy, what are you doing here, and you are so polite to your aunt, sit down quickly!" He Peifeng helped Fang Yage sit down again, thinking about hearing what her niece had to say.

"Uncle, my uncle works hard for state affairs every day, and I don't want him to worry about the affairs of the eldest princess's mansion anymore. Song of Solomon is no longer a child, and those who can share his uncle's worries must not add to the chaos. ”

Hearing Fang Yage's words, He Peifeng was full of emotion: "Yage, you have really grown up and become sensible, but this matter must not be let go lightly, I will let your prince brother pay more attention, and I can't let you be in danger again." "The crown prince of the dynasty is Jin Shuichen, the eldest son of Empress He Peifeng.

"Aunt rest assured, this time my mother has completely rectified the Eldest Princess's Mansion, and she has also strengthened the patrol of the guards in the mansion. I believe that it will be difficult for the ghost to enter the mansion again. Moreover, Song of Solomon came to the palace today because of this matter to borrow from his uncle. My aunt gave me people, which means that she helped me. Fang Yage said mischievously.

"Borrowing? Who are you going to borrow? He Peifeng was puzzled.

"Song of Grace is cheeky and wants to borrow a nurturing grandmother from my aunt. My aunt also knows that the sister in the house is growing up, and she also needs a good grandmother to teach the rules, so as not to let outsiders say that my princess's house is not strict in her education. ”

He Peifeng saw Fang Yage smiling like a little fox, and understood that this little girl must be for those good-looking people in the general's mansion by raising her grandmother...... It's okay, the aunts and concubines of the General's Mansion are making a lot of noise, and it's a good thing to find someone to take care of it.

"What's so hard about that? Mama Tan next to me is an old man in the palace, and she is very good at regulating people, so let her live in the princess's mansion for a while. He Peifeng happily agreed, and gave a look to the grandmother standing beside her.

"The old slave respects the queen's order, and he must do his best to train the aunts and ladies in the princess's mansion, and he must live up to the expectations of the queen and the county lord of Anning." A palace man wearing a red collared shirt and a blue horse-faced skirt walked up to him and saluted back. This person is in charge of the etiquette teaching of the palace people, and Mama Tan, who is currently in Shangyi Bureau, has a brown hat with a heart, hairpin, and beaded flowers on her head to show her identity as a female official.

The status is high, just enough to suppress the people in the house...... Fang Yage thought secretly.
