Chapter 476: Empress Zhao who doesn't play cards according to common sense
Soon came to the day of Chongyang, early in the morning, Luo Zhizhen looked at the twelve moonflower skirts spread out on the bed, and couldn't help but be stunned, waiting for her to change the skirt in the smiles of the maids.
Zhen Miao looked at Luo Zhizhen who came over, smiled with satisfaction, waited for the carriage, and said in a low voice: "I deliberately asked people to add two more pictures, and the effect is really good." ”
Luo Zhizhen was a little uncomfortable: "Isn't this too ostentatious?" ”
Although the Yuehua skirt is beautiful, it is not suitable to wear on many formal occasions.
Zhen Miao said with relief: "It is precisely like this that will make the Queen Mother jealous." ”
This skirt can not only bring out Luo Zhizhen's tranquil and gentle temperament, but also let the Queen Mother see her ambition hidden under indifference, which is very suitable.
Luo Zhizhen listened and nodded slowly: "I listen to my sister-in-law." ”
Outside the palace gate, the two got out of the carriage together, and met many ladies and daughters or nieces along the way, dressed up one by one, competing for beauty, but they all glanced at Luo Zhizhen's skirt.
For no other reason, this skirt has two more pieces than the ordinary moonlight skirt, which is more elegant, and is sandwiched with silk silver line ripples, as if the moonlight is draped on the body, and unconsciously attracts people's eyes, and then in exchange for envy, jealousy, or unremitting eyes.
On weekdays, Luo Zhizhen was already nervous, but with Zhen Miao's encouragement, and thinking that this was a fight for his own fate, he was no longer worried, and all women always had a little bit of vanity in loving beauty.
When I arrived in the imperial garden, it was really full of chrysanthemums of all colors, as well as rare treasures in flowers, which would attract onlookers in normal times, but at this time, I only listened to the sound of warblers and swallows, and the laughter was strong, but these strange flowers and plants were indifferent.
On the jade case, there is a pot of chrysanthemum wine, a plate of chongyang cake to suit the occasion, and all kinds of dim sum decorated with chrysanthemums.
Zhen Miao glanced around.
The hour is still early, the queen mother and the queen have not yet arrived, and there are no other high-grade concubines in the palace except for Zhen Jing, and low-grade concubines are not qualified to come, so at this moment, it has become a good time for the ladies to contact their feelings and exchange gossip before the banquet.
Zhen Miao was in it, naturally she couldn't avoid vulgarity, and in just a short period of time, she was already dealing with several people.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for her to hear a commotion, and when she heard the voice, she looked at Zhen Jing who came from afar across the crowd.
At this moment, Zhen Jing's eyebrows and eyes were full of energy, and the corners of her mouth were full of pride, or rather, she didn't think to hide it.
It is said that the night walk in brocade clothes is a regret in life, since she entered the Six Princes' Mansion, her mother's family is no longer her mother's house, and now in the deep palace, there is no opportunity to show it on weekdays, only on this occasion, can she show her scenery openly.
Those ladies are shrewd, although there were rumors that the concubine had fallen out of favor a few days ago, but in the harem, today's concubine is favored, and tomorrow's concubine is proud, it all depends on the emperor's unpredictable mind, only believe in rumors, that is stupid.
Concubine Zhen's appearance today is enough to show that she has regained the emperor's blue eyes, not to mention, she also has a little princess, and the only little prince at present.
Zhen Jing smiled, listening to the greetings of those ladies, her heart was happy.
It is not in vain that she lowered her eyebrows and coaxed the emperor for so many days, and there is Zhenzhen, so she doesn't worry about the emperor not coming.
Thinking of her daughter Zhenzhen, Zhen Jing subconsciously frowned and looked at Zhen Miao. The jealousy and hatred in my heart are turbulent, and they are all hidden in Yingying's smile.
She crossed the crowd, dragged her long and gorgeous skirt, and walked towards Zhen Miao, but before anyone approached, she smiled first: "The fourth sister is here." ”
In front of everyone's eyes, Zhen Miao was not rude, so she had to salute and say, "The concubine is well." ”
Zhen Jing stared at the fulcrum cuifei fish hairpin above Zhen Miao's head, and couldn't wait to laugh out loud, and said in her heart, Zhen Si, finally waited for the day when you bowed your head to me!
On weekdays, no matter how proud you are, even if the emperor secretly thinks about you, in the end, you still have to say hello to her concubine!
"The fourth sister is too outward, this is ...... The three girls of the Guogong Mansion? Zhen Jing walked closer, smiled and took Zhen Miao's hand to help her up.
Zhen Miao got up and looked up at Zhen Jing, her eyes showing undisguised coldness.
She just wants to not make mistakes in etiquette, and it is completely unnecessary to pretend to be affectionate.
waved his hand without a trace, and said lightly: "Exactly." ”
Zhen Jing looked at Luo Zhizhen critically, and praised him: "It's really good-looking, but it looks small, is it fourteen years old?" ”
said in my heart, these three girls are a concubine, dressed up, and appeared on such an occasion openly, it is really a big face, and it is really the same person's fate!
In the final analysis, even if she is standing in the position of the concubine now, it is difficult to calm down when she thinks of the shabby sedan chair that was carried into the prince's mansion like that.
Zhen Miao smiled lightly: "At our age, looking at the little girl, we naturally feel smaller." ”
The corners of Zhen Jing's mouth stiffened.
Zhen Si's words were really stinging, and they simply stepped on her sore feet! It's hateful, but I can't find anything wrong with it.
In fact, Zhen Jing's mind is also contradictory, on the one hand, she watched Zhen Miao bow her head to her, happy in her heart, eager to say a few more words to her, enjoy the floating feeling of turning over as an adult, on the other hand, she didn't dare to provoke her too much, because this is a card that does not follow common sense, if she says something that makes her faceless, even if she is pretty, it is useless.
My face is off, and it's dirty when I pick it up.
So Zhen Jing listened to Zhen Miao's words, said a few words, and walked away.
Looking at Zhen Jing's back, Zhen Miao smiled.
I don't know what I'm proud of, the harem beauties are stubble after stubble, like cutting leeks, and they are still too busy to take care of themselves, and they come to her to find fault.
Seeing Zhen Jing turn around, Zhen Miao took out the handkerchief, wiped the hand she had just held, and threw the handkerchief to the ground.
Zhen Jing looked at it, and her face turned white.
Zhen Miao smiled disappreciatively.
The last thing we are afraid of is provocation, and if we want to be angry with her, we have to work harder.
Throw the handkerchief, whatever she thinks, we have money and willfulness, just throw it away after using it, can't we?
On such an occasion, Zhen Jing didn't dare to attack after all, and sat while holding her chest.
"The Queen Mother has arrived, the Queen Mother has arrived-"
In the midst of the singing, Zhao Feicui helped the Empress Dowager Zhao to come and sat on a high seat.
This is the beginning of the chrysanthemum feast.
After three rounds of drinking, it was time for the girls from all over the province to show their talents.
The girl from Changqing Bofu was the first to play, and the performance was playing the piano.
This girl's appearance is just delicate, and her piano skills are remarkable, but she just wants to choose some beauties for Emperor Chenqing to enter the palace to watch the excitement, and by the way, Zhao Feicui, who blocked Zhen Jing, was not too interested, and a pair of bright eyes swept around the field, and her eyes became brighter and brighter.
Zhao Feicui sat next to the Empress Dowager Zhao, and during the talent show, the Empress Dowager Zhao talked to her softly: "This Tao girl from Changqing Bofu, what do you think?" ”
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhao Feicui didn't have any suggestive movements or expressions, only turned his face sideways, and said softly: "It's too bland, it's not interesting." ”
Empress Dowager Zhao was a little helpless: "It's only when it's not interesting to settle down, and when it's interesting, it will give you a headache." ”
"Auntie, I'm not afraid of headaches, I'm just afraid of boredom." Lonely and deep palace, life is difficult, and then get some wooden people in, there is no waste of food.
When Miss Tao finished playing the song, she was praised by the Queen Mother, so she turned white and retreated silently.
didn't get the chrysanthemum color head, which is obviously a failure.
When she returned to her mother's side, her eyes were red and she almost burst into tears.
This girl has seen Emperor Chenqing, the young emperor is handsome, and she has already secretly moved her heart.
In other words, the world is like this, when Emperor Chenqing is still a prince who is not favored, the unruly will make some little ladies frown, but he has become a high emperor, which is not a little regretful, and even makes people want to move.
It's like a treasure that can kill many people's thoughts when it is unparalleled in the world, but if it is not so expensive, there will be many people who want to grit their teeth and buy it. The emperor is amorous, and it always makes people feel that they have a great opportunity.
Fortunately, at this time, half of everyone's eyes were on the girl who showed her talents, and half on the queen mother and queen, no one paid attention to it, and they didn't care about the mood of the unsuccessful girl, only Luo Zhizhen glanced at it from afar, and there was some envy in his eyes.
After more than a dozen girls were shown, it happened that the faces of those with outstanding family backgrounds were more ordinary, Zhao Feicui chose four outstanding ones, and the Queen Mother chose two high-born ones in order to balance.
After all, the choice of concubines also has to take into account the status of these girls' grandfathers or fathers in the court, and it can't all be determined by Zhao Feicui's temperament.
Of course, those who can come to enjoy the chrysanthemum banquet have good backgrounds, and it is not surprising that those with higher status are not selected.
Zhen Miao saw it, couldn't help but feel at ease, and whispered to Luo Zhizhen: "You see, those two people with better family backgrounds have ordinary appearances, and the four beautiful ones are all from slightly worse family backgrounds, so it can be seen that the Queen Mother doesn't want people with equally outstanding family backgrounds and appearances to enter the palace to compete with the queen for the limelight." You are very brilliant today, your identity is top-notch among these girls, for the sake of insurance, when the time comes, you will play a few wrong notes, and the Queen Mother will definitely eliminate you if she has a reason. ”
Soon it was Luo Zhizhen's turn to play, and the talent she showed was the most common way to play the piano, Zhao Feicui quietly said to the Queen Mother: "Auntie, this is good, you will give flowers when the time comes." ”
Empress Dowager Zhao resisted the urge to shake her head, and said in a low voice: "Feicui, don't mess around, this Luo girl is from the Zhenguo Mansion, she is tall, and Luo Shizi is a hot and powerful person, and if she really enters the palace, she can't even give you face." ”
As he was talking, Luo Zhizhen played a wrong note, and the audience was silent for a moment.
The corner of Zhao Feicui's eyes swept to Zhen Jing's relieved expression, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl: "Auntie, it's her." Don't forget, I'm a childless queen now, and if I really enter the palace, it's not me who is in a hurry to deal with it. ”R1152
