In the next trip, Princess Lichuan lost interest in talking, and Wen Hui didn't care, but chatted with the little princess Xu Qing with great interest. Xu Qing's cute appearance is very cute, and she can't tease Wen Hui.

This journey is actually very short, because Princess Lichuan is the most favored princess by the emperor, her princess mansion is very close to the palace, in fact, the reason why they have walked for so long is mainly in the palace, the palace is too big, this time the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet was held in the palace's large garden Kunming Lake, of course, not in the lake. It's winter now, and Kunming Lake has long been frozen. The banquet was held in a large hall on the edge of Kunming Lake. This hall is very large, there are many side halls next to it, and there is a big stage in the middle, where banquets are often held, and it is very easy to accommodate 1,000 people.

After getting out of the carriage, it was still some distance from the main hall where the banquet was held, and through the winter merlin, about a corner of the main hall could be seen. Now there is still more time, and the carriage is stopped here again, Wen Hui thought, this must be Chen Guifei's temporary lounge, it seems that before the banquet starts, the eldest aunt is going to meet her.

To be honest, Chen Wenhui is more curious about her eldest aunt than about the palace. This is a legendary woman, born noble, the daughter of the Chen family, became a member of the harem, competed for favor with a group of noble beauties, and finally became the emperor's favorite woman, and gave birth to the emperor's first child, Princess Lichuan, but the remaining prince died mysteriously, and finally was dragged down by his mother's family and lost the emperor's favor. This is where the script of life should have ended. Who can know that after she became her grandmother, she could return to the palace in the battle for favor, and won completely, became a concubine, and defeated the queen, the former concubine Wan, and was a popular candidate to support a throne, the fourth prince. This qiē is so legendary that Wen Hui couldn't help but ask in her heart. What made the eldest aunt go so desperately to counterattack? What kind of wisdom made her succeed in this palace full of beauties after losing her most beautiful youth?

Sure enough, Princess Lichuan said, "There is still some time before the banquet begins, so let's go to the concubine's resting place for a while." ”

Because the horses are not in the capital. Therefore, Princess Lichuan took her three children and Wen Hui to this remote and quiet little side hall. Princess Lichuan said: "This is the Plum Appreciation Pavilion, the closest to the main hall, it is convenient for the mother concubine to command the preparation of the main hall, and you can also take a break in the middle of the noise, you haven't seen the mother concubine for many years, right?" The concubine is always talking about you. ”

After speaking, he took Wen Hui into the Plum Appreciation Pavilion. As soon as she entered, the palace maid Yu'er was already waiting with a smile: "The princess is here?" The little princess, the eldest prince. Is the second son okay? This is the sixth girl, right? It's like a flower. ”

Princess Lichuan has always been very willful and casual with her mother, and said: "It's all good, I brought them all, can you take them to see your mother?" I think the mother misses them too. Wen Hui and I walked slowly. ”

Yu'er agreed, and hurriedly took Princess Lichuan's children and the nurses of these children into the apse. Soon, the apse resounded with laughter. Wen Hui's heart moved, this eldest aunt still likes her little grandson, little granddaughter, too, in comparison, these are her relatives.

A wise person like Chen Guifei. Loving his grandchildren so much, didn't he plan for his grandchildren's future?

Princess Lichuan said: "The layout of this palace room is from the hands of the concubine, simple and comfortable, but it looks noble and generous everywhere. Where is like the former empress, when the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet was still hosted by the former empress in previous years, she made it vulgar here, it is really strange how she received the education of the royal family. Of course. It may also be that the Wang family doesn't know how to raise girls at all, you see that the eldest aunt can't be on the stage, and the former prince Liangdi Wang Pianpian who carried the black pot is simply unknown. ”

Chen Wenhui couldn't help but laugh when she heard her slander the Wang family like this, and said, "The girls from these families I have come into contact with are except for our Chen family. I am most optimistic about the Bai family. You see, the women from the Bai family are all talents. My sister-in-law Bai Yuying, and the concubine Bai Yujing of the four princes, are all beautiful and talented. ”

Princess Lichuan nodded and said: "The women of the Li family have not been very significant since the Queen Mother, and the remaining three families, the Wang family seems to be the most prominent, but the women who have come out are not good, and the Chen family and the Bai family are the best." The Chen family first had a mother concubine, and then you and Wen Feng, which is really full of talents. ”

Chen Wenhui smiled and said: "Where can I compare with my eldest aunt, even my eldest sister can't compare." ”

What else does Princess Lichuan have to say, the two of them have already walked to the inner hall, Chen Wenhui saw a graceful and luxurious beautiful woman sitting on the couch in the hall at a glance, it is said that Chen Guifei is also in her forties, almost fifty, but she is well maintained, and she looks like she is in her thirties. Long body and jade standing, this is the common characteristic of the Chen family's beauties, as well as a pair of bright big eyes, full of wisdom, straight nose, at first glance is a resolute person. The most attractive thing is not her beauty, but her graceful and luxurious temperament that exudes from the inside out. No wonder everyone said before that compared with Queen Wang and Chen Guifei, Chen Guifei still has the most motherly temperament in the world, which has caused Queen Wang to be angry countless times.

Now Empress Wang has become a prisoner, but Chen Guifei has become an empress who is not an empress, presiding over the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.

Chen Wenhui sighed and bowed down at the same time, Chen Wenhui still sincerely admired this aunt.

I only heard a nice voice say, "Wen Hui has grown so big?" I remember being a suckling doll. That year, your mother carried you into the palace and asked the imperial doctor in the palace to treat you, who would have thought that now you are not only healthy and beautiful, but also make such a great contribution to the Chen family. ”

Chen Wenhui lowered her head and said, "Niangniang is too famous." ”

Chen Guifei said: "You don't need to pay attention to these etiquettes at this time, and there will be a place for you to talk about etiquette when it comes to the banquet." At this time, I'm all my own people here, so I won't talk about this, I'm just your aunt here. ”

Chen Wenhui stood up with a smile when she heard this: "Thank you, auntie, in fact, I don't like to pay attention to etiquette, but I haven't seen my aunt for many years, and I have forgotten my aunt's beautiful face. It's clearly like a princess's sister. ”

Chen Guifei's smile trembled: "You little sweet mouth, you are so good at talking, come over and let me take a look." ”

Chen Wenhui hurriedly came to Chen Guifei's side. This is closer to see, sure enough, the years are not forgiving, this face is a little saggy, and there are some wrinkles.

Chen Guifei took a closer look at Chen Wenhui, and saw that she was long and jade, she was indeed a woman of the Chen family, a ten-year-old child, and she was as tall as a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, and she was already a little beauty.

Chen Guifei nodded and said, "Well, this looks very similar to when I was young." ”

Princess Lichuan smiled and said, "Isn't it, mother, I see that Wen Hui not only looks like you when you were young, but is also smart and energetic, and her ability is the same as you." ”

Chen Guifei laughed happily, and Wen Hui hurriedly said: "My father said the same thing, but the niece was born stupid, and she can only be as good as one-ten-thousandth of the eldest aunt." ”

Chen Guifei said: "You are only one in ten thousand, and you can help the imperial court expand its territory and develop maritime trade?" Can you help the fourth child for disaster relief, and can you help your father promote new species? You're only one in 10,000, then I can become a god. ”

Everyone laughed. Although Wen Hui was smiling with her face, she was really shocked in her heart, it seems that everything she has done has fallen into the eyes of the royal family, Chen Guifei knows, and the emperor must also know that this is not a good thing. As a woman with these talents, it's really dangerous, it's not good, the royal family has taken a fancy to your talent, in a word, the next will, enter the palace as a concubine, or only give which prince to be a concubine, or a concubine, this life is over, you can only stay in the high wall and fight with the concubines for life. This is still a broad-minded emperor, if you meet a jealous and jealous person, you will be killed directly with a word, or sent to the Taoist temple, the nunnery, and it will be the end of this life.

Wen Hui was alarmed in her heart, but she didn't show it at all, she just accompanied Chen Guifei to gossip, and said some words praising Chen Guifei's virtuous and virtuous and beautiful youth, but she began to think about how to deal with it, what else could she do to impress the emperor and prevent the emperor from locking her up.

After talking for a while, Chen Guifei liked this clever niece more and more, after all, blood is thicker than water, and she couldn't help but follow Wen Hui's words and said a lot, for example, Wen Hui mentioned that she didn't understand the rules of the palace, Chen Guifei talked about the approximate seat of today's banquet, as well as the procedure, first the emperor gave a speech, then a hundred officials congratulated, then a burst of singing and dancing, then the emperor gave a speech again, and then the prince of the clan congratulated, and then another song and dance. In the end, in order to make Wen Hui understand, she also called the palace maid Yu'er, and brought today's seating list and ceremony list to Wen Hui to see, so that Wen Hui knew it well.

What the concubine said was more general, but the list brought by Yu'er was written in great detail, detailing the order of serving, the relationship between the seats, the official position, the name of the song and dance, the name of the music, and the procedure of the ceremony. Wen Hui was like a treasure, these opened her eyes, she was busy keeping these secrets in her heart, and she didn't want to make mistakes later. After all, she has not lived in the capital in the past few years, and she naturally doesn't understand these rare treasures, song and dance names, and personnel relationships.

Wen Hui couldn't help but sigh that there are really people in the DPRK who are good officials.
