Blessed
When Xu Xun got up, the sky had just brightened, and she, He Xianxian and Sun Yunu all got up at the beginning of the day, had breakfast after freshening up, and then put on makeup to greet the princess. So the time in the morning is relatively tight, she didn't sleep early last night, and she got up a little dazed today, coming out of the clean room, her head is still napping little by little.
Since she is a master, there is no reason to take care of her own food, clothing and daily life, Xu Xun doesn't have to be helped by others to wipe her teeth, she took a green jade toothbrush by herself, dipped it in the potion, carefully cleaned each tooth, and then used cotton thread to hook the gap between the teeth, zuihou dipped the prepared balm and brushed it again, and used the back of the toothbrush to brush the tongue and gums, so that whenever she opened her mouth, it was like an orchid, red lips and white teeth.
Although the steps are cumbersome, but in the past few years, this has been done, and Xu Xun has done it quickly and well under the teaching of several grandmothers. After wiping her teeth, she sat on the edge of the kang, and knelt down by two palace people, one holding the basin and the other giving the hand toker, and after the hand towel was finished, she handed it to Xu Xun.
Xu Xun wiped her face by herself, and then someone carefully wiped her neck, behind her ears, forehead, sideburns, and neckline, which were easy to ignore. Then I changed the water and did it again in the same color - the first time the water was mixed with balm and pancreas, fragrant and slippery, and after wiping it, I had to wipe it with water again to wash it off. It was considered to have washed her face, and then someone came up to comb her hair.
The palace concubines of the previous dynasty may spend more than an hour on their hairstyles every day, but for the women of this dynasty, anyway, the people in the palace usually wear crowns from top to bottom, and all women who wear crowns use a hairstyle in a nest of silk. The women in the Qinglou have some hairstyles that comb the protruding peaks of the Song and Yuan dynasties to attract guests, but this kind of thing has nothing to do with the harem of this dynasty for the time being, if you don't wear a crown, there are only two or three simple hairstyle choices that are more similar to a nest of silk, and it is not difficult to comb. The daughter's family of Taisun Palace usually combs a nest of silk.
A nest of silk is a fairly simple oath, and it will be combed in a while. Sometimes at home, do not wear the whole head, just wear a bun, on the head of the jewelry, everyone will wear a full set of head, and when the celebration is in accordance with the regulations, there is a set of dresses and jewelry. Xu Xun sometimes didn't even bother to wear a bun, so he just wore a forehead wipe and inserted one or two hairpins. She can think about it, she has no favor anyway, she sees these people all day long, and it is not interesting to dress up no matter how good-looking she is.
Today is no exception, the maid Mei'er asked Xu Xun, "What hairstyle does Jieyu want to comb?" Xu Xun said, "You can give me a bun casually, or just insert two hairpins, just wear a pearl to wipe my forehead." ”
The pearl forehead was quickly picked out, it was a narrow dark green band, and the top was finely and densely decorated with rice beads, because the pearl was very small, so although the amount was large, it did not look ostentatious, very simple.
According to the color of the forehead, Mama Sun picked out a light green Luo shirt for Xu Xun, a moon-white pleated skirt, Mei'er combed her hair, Xiang'er came to powder Xu Xun, painted her eyebrows, and dotted a faint rouge on her cheeks, Xu Xun went into the screen to change her clothes: when she was putting on makeup, someone had already put up the windows one by one, so that the cool breeze in the early morning would blow into the house and change the air in the room.
The three sides of the courtyard were almost doing the same thing at the same time, and now, through the window, she could also see He Xianxian sitting in the opposite room talking to the palace maid.
When they came out after changing their clothes, the four grandmothers had all arrived, but they didn't greet Xu Xun with a smile as before. Mama Sun, Mama Li and Mama Zhao and Mama Qian, who were not on duty last night, spoke in a corner of the hall in a low voice, the expressions of the four people were more serious, Xu Xun stood in the back room, looked through the curtain raised, and felt a little sorry: I haven't heard of anyone in the harem who can change the master casually, and the guide Mama will not change the court. If you are not favored, it is a drought and flood to ensure the harvest, that is, a few grandmothers are in front of their peers, maybe they will be a little unable to raise their heads.
Just when she was about to go to the north house for breakfast, the little middle-aged person who came to pick up Xu Xun last night walked into the courtyard with a food box in her hand, and directly turned into Xu Xun's house, put the food box on the table, and said to Xu Xun, "Jieyu, this is the milk crisp that the grandson rewarded you." Taisun said: Since you have eaten well, then eat more. ”
Xu Xun was still quick to react, and after being stunned, he hurriedly saluted, "Thank you for the reward of the grandson." ”
Xiaozhongren came on behalf of his grandson, so he could naturally accept her courtesy. After sending the things, the little Chinese man saluted Xu Xun in turn and exited the house. Xu Xun walked over and opened the food box, and saw that there was a newly burned colorful plate in the palace, full of soufflé that Xu Xun had eaten last night, piled up like a hill, but it was very beautiful.
A few grandmothers didn't know what this was, so they gathered around to see what it was fresh, Xu Xun gave a piece of it, and they all said it was good after tasting it, and grandma Sun praised Xu Xun. "The old slave has been in the palace for more than 20 years, and he has never tasted this kind of thing, but he relies on the nobles to taste something fresh."
Even Mama Li, Mama Zhao and Mama Qian all laughed, Mama Li looked at Xu Xun's face, lowered her voice and said with a smile, "Are you still worried now?" The grandson doesn't let you sleep, it's not that he doesn't like you, if you want me to say, the grandson likes you at the top, so I'm afraid of hurting you. You see, isn't this afraid that you will be sad and rush to deliver something to you? ”
Mama Qian glanced at Mama Li, but she was not as optimistic as Mama Li, but she also comforted Xu Xun, "Don't worry, with this saucer as a talisman, your life will not be too sad." ”
Mama Qian's speech has always been very profound, Xu Xun didn't understand it as usual, but she didn't have time to ask in detail, she saw through the window that He Xianxian had already walked to the north house, so she hurriedly sat down to have breakfast.
Because of something on his mind, there were four or five kinds of dim sum on a table, Xu Xun only ate two small steamed buns with jujube paste the size of a dragon's eye, and drank a bowl of soy milk, even if he had eaten it. After dotting rouge on her lips, she went out of the house to greet the princess, and happened to bump into He Xianxian.
As soon as He Xianxian saw her, he squeezed his eyes at her, and whispered with a smile, "How well did you serve your grandson last night?" Got the jackpot this morning? What did the big brother reward you? ”
Xu Xun didn't know what to say, thought about it, and had to avoid the important and light, "Seeing that I love soufflé, he rewarded me with a plate of soufflé." ”
When He Xianxian heard this, he leaned back and smiled backwards, and they all entered the courtyard of the princess, still holding their mouths, their shoulders trembled, and the two of them went to the princess and gave her a salute.
In the past few days, the concubine is bedridden again: her health is not very good, and the small days of each month are really the same as wars, which are very difficult, so she usually does not come out to ask for peace. Concubine Taisun seems to be used to it, as soon as she said that Concubine Taisun's day was coming, she sent the doctor to prescribe medicine. Seeing the smile on He Xianxian's face, she glanced at Xu Xun in surprise, and then asked He Xianxian with a pleasant face, "What's so happy?" ”
He Xianxian told Concubine Taisun about Xu Xun's reward, and covered his mouth and smiled as he spoke, "You say, is Xiao Xun very coke and naïve in everything?" ”
Xu Xun actually looked at the performance of Concubine Taisun, and guessed a little: He Xianxian didn't know anything, but Concubine Taisun was different, and it was estimated that she knew everything. I saw He Xianxian laughing there just now, and I thought why Xianxian was laughing at her for being unlucky, but fortunately, He Xianxian was quick to talk and uncovered the misunderstanding.
The doubts on Concubine Taisun's face disappeared at this time, but she didn't smile, but told He Xianxian, "Taisun will come in a while, don't mention this matter in a word." ”
He Xianxian didn't know Weishenme, but he definitely responded. Concubine Taisun nodded sympathetically at Xu Xun again, and said, "You can also relax, everything has me, and I won't let people bully you." ”
Xu Xun's heart suddenly warmed, she smiled slightly and nodded. It's that He Xianxian is a little inexplicable, but that's when Taisun came.
Compared with the awkward princess and grandmothers, the grandson is very natural, sat down and greeted everyone, and then said to Xu Xun, "I asked the people below this morning, and I learned that this soufflé is the best and best milk, and I don't know how to make it after repeated exposure to the sun, and it can only be made after many processes." The annual output is very small, and there is no circulation on the market at all, which is indeed a rare good thing. I'll give you everything I have here, and I'll give it back to you next year." ”
Xu Xun quickly stood up and thanked the grandson, and she also felt that it was natural: when she heard the story that happened to the grandson, the resentment in her heart disappeared. Although there was a misunderstanding, but in the end, Taisun was also for her good, there was no need to hold on to this matter, but it made Taisun feel sorry for her.
"You've given so much, and it's weird, and I don't know when I'll be able to finish it." She naturally had a family conversation with her grandson, "Maybe, I won't be able to finish eating until next year." ”
Taisun looked at her and grinned, his dark face seemed to be a little happy, but this emotion was fleeting. After sitting down and saying a few words, he stood up and took Concubine Taisun, Xu Xun and He Xianxian to the Chunhe Palace to say goodbye.
Asking for peace in the Chunhe Palace is nothing more than saying some trivial things, and the crown princess has something to go to the inner palace on this day, so she let them disperse very early. Back at the Taisun Palace, the Taisun Concubine left Xu Xun to speak.
"Someone told me about yesterday." Concubine Taisun seemed to be very sympathetic to Xu Xun, and sighed incessantly, but she was even more angry than Xu Xun herself. "There's no way around it, fortunately, you're almost sixteen years old, don't mention it now, wait for half a year and eight months, and then I'll talk to Your Highness about it." Fifteen years old is still young, sixteen or seventeen years old is nothing...... Don't worry, no one in the palace will bully you. The grandson took pity on you in his heart, and as soon as I heard that he had rewarded you in the morning, the big stone in my heart fell to the ground......
Xu Xun didn't quite understand the causal relationship here, but after thinking about it, he understood: this time, he can be regarded as the protagonist of the strange things in the palace. There must be a lot of talk about it behind the scenes, and the grandson rewards things with such fanfare, isn't it to support her? At least, when people are telling her story, they have to carry it and say, 'Although she is unlucky, she is too young and has no favor for the time being, but the grandson still loves her.' I gave her all the rare good things'......
Taisun is a kind-hearted person. Xu Xun sighed in his heart, and he really added a sense of gratitude and goodwill to this black and strong boss.
Concubine Taisun is also a kind-hearted person, Xu Xun can't accept favor, she is even more sad than Xu Xun, she comforted her for a long time, and then made sense, "To tell you honestly, there are no secrets in the palace, this matter will definitely spread, and when the time comes, maybe some mean people will laugh at you in private." Don't be sad when you hear it, and don't worry about them. Those are all the concubines of the elders, and they are arguing with them, and it is reasonable to be unreasonable...... There are some things that you know in your own heart, and that's fine. ”
Xu Xun hurriedly stood up and said seriously, "I understand, I will never cause trouble to the grandson, the crown princess and you." ”
Concubine Taisun was so happy that she hugged her in her arms, "You, you look ignorant, but you can be sensible in your heart, it's good that you understand this truth...... Taisun and I really didn't hurt your little sister in vain! ”
…… As a result, after Xu Xun entered the palace for several months without accepting favor, his intimacy with his grandson and concubine seemed to have increased a little.
