Chapter 59: Chinese New Year's Eve
Although she is a princess, the situation will be much better, but who made her a princess who used to be a living woman, and after returning to the palace, she doesn't seem to be very well treated by the queen mother.
Therefore, when you see a good thing, you will accept it, and you will be happy with each other, and you will not offend others or suffer a loss to yourself.
The flower is shallow and deep, and it makes sense.
But this is always taken in vain, and I feel very embarrassed, and besides, I eat people with soft mouths and short hands, what if the other party takes this opportunity to bury a "dynamite" for her?
Although she is a little transparent, powerless, and has no good plans, it is precisely because of this that what the other party did is even more suspicious.
Fortunately, Jin Xin was clever and inquired from the side, and it turned out to be Lao Wang, the sous chef of the Imperial Catering Division, who remembered the dim sum technique she gave to Admiral Xue last time, and he knew it.
I learned that her appetite has not been very good lately, so I sent a little caution. But he couldn't go out at will, so he deliberately asked Xiao Wu to bring his masterpiece to send her warmth.
This gossip was tricked out by Jinxin who didn't know what tricks to use, and Xiao Wu even poked out the fact that Lao Wang stole Xue Dudu's dim sum, obviously Jinxinhua's blood capital is not small.
Of course, Jin Xin assured Xiao Wu that she would never reveal it, and in order not to lose her trust, she also pestered Hua Qian to prove it.
Not long after, Jin Xin really brought a beautiful little eunuch in.
It's Xiao Wu.
"Slave Xiaowu greets the princess."
"No courtesy, no courtesy." Hua Qian waved her hand, her eyes shining and staring at the bamboo basket she was holding in Xiao Wu's hand: "You brought delicious food to the palace today?" ”
Everyone is an old acquaintance, and apart from the necessary etiquette on the scene, they have long been quite nourished.
Xiao Wu smiled, put the basket on the table, lifted the lid on the top, and wrapped it in a thick layer of cotton cloth.
"It's cold, so it's not easy to get cold when you cover it like this." Xiao Wu said as he brought out a plate of dim sum from inside.
If you want to talk about the old king of the Imperial Diet, Hua Qian has been fascinated for a long time, but unfortunately he has not met so far. It's not that she doesn't want to see her, it's mainly that she has committed two crimes in three days, and she can't seize the opportunity to meet.
But Lao Wang is also a backbone, no matter how Hua Qian sends someone to invite him, he refuses to come.
After one or two times, the flower is shallow.
Anyway, it's good to eat some.
"This little snack is made by Lao Wang after a lot of work, different from other snacks, it tastes the best when it is hot, princess try it."
Hua Qian pinched a small piece of emerald green and took a sip: "Well, it tastes good." He took another bite and smacked his lips: "That's good." ”
Xiao Wu smiled and narrowed his eyes: "The taste is very positive." This is a new breed researched by Lao Wang, and no one has tasted it yet, and the first one thinks of the princess. ”
Hua Qian praised while eating: "Go back and wait for my injury to get better, prepare a return gift for him, I'm embarrassed to eat him so much." ”
"Whatever the princess says, it is the honor of a slave to serve the princess."
"Being remembered by you is the blessing of this palace, well, it's delicious. Come on, don't stand still, taste, taste together. ”
So Xiao Wu and Jin Xin smiled and pinched a small snack together, and the three of them ate head-to-head happily.
"By the way, the princess, it will be Chinese New Year's Eve in a short time, the slave has just gotten a purchase trip these days, what does the princess need, the slave went to the palace to carry it for the princess."
Everyone in the harem is not allowed to leave the palace without an order. Therefore, from jewelry beads and flowers, to small snacks, they are all carried by the little eunuchs who go out of the palace to purchase, and ordinary people, they are not willing to bring them, so they have to give some benefits in order to go on a journey.
Some people have been in the palace since they were children and have not seen the world outside the palace for decades.
Hua Qian didn't have any special needs, but when she thought of Chinese New Year's Eve, she had a few people with the same door in previous years, and this year, I'm afraid she can only be alone.
I wanted him to send a letter out to Shen Ye, but when he thought about Xiao Wu's identity, he still gave up.
After chatting a few more words, Xiao Wu retired, Hua Qian wanted to ask him about Xue Jinian's movements, but when he thought about his strange behavior that day, forget it, it is estimated that he can't ask.

Twenty years after the proclamation, Chinese New Year's Eve
It is reported that on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, His Majesty will have fun with the people and personally observe the New Year in the Moon Palace.
For this reason, the palace has been busy for a long time.
Early in the morning, Hua Qian was packed up by Jinxin and hurried to Feiyun Palace slowly.
She, the princess of the wild road, has no one to guide her, what are the rules for keeping the year in this palace, Hua Qian doesn't know anything. Thinking about it, it is better to follow Changle and go to the excitement.
Today, Feiyun Palace is full of joy.
Princess Changle is very generous, Feiyun Palace went up to the palm palace, down to the door attendant, all took a lot of red envelopes, even the Jinxin who had just stepped into the door, the New Year's greetings had not yet been spit out, and they were also stuffed with one.
Hua Qian sat in the position, with a smile on his face, and his heart was greedy. Countless times in Changle to send red envelopes to the tray, there are still a few undelivered, plucked up countless courage, after all, defeated his own cheek.
Alas, sometimes it is a sin to be too thin-skinned, and I am embarrassed to stretch out my hand in front of the silver.
Seriously, she misses Xue Jinian very much at this moment, maybe he is like Princess Changle at this time, throwing money in Dongchang and handing out year-end bonuses.
I don't know if she has her share.
Although Jinxin pinched the red envelope and didn't complain about her as the master, Hua Qian always felt that the eyes she occasionally handed over during the chat between her and Changle were silently accusing her of being stingy.
Up and down the Feique Palace until now, I haven't gotten a penny of silver.
Including the master of Hua Qian.
She also wanted to experience the feeling of a moat, but who let her enter the palace for only two months, and made mistakes again and again, the moon was almost deducted, and she has not starved to death so much thanks to Xue Jinian, the big tree stands firmly, and the branches are luxuriant and the tentacles are extremely long, otherwise those people in the imperial food department may send pig food all at once, and you will vomit to death if you don't starve.
Eating and drinking in Feiyun Palace, accompanied Changle to eat and chew his teeth, and before he knew it, it was night.
The two of them took the mighty attendants and set off to pick the Moon Palace.
Since the battle with Princess Anping, Princess Changle now carries a guard of honor wherever she walks in the palace. Seeing that every time she goes out majestically, Hua Qian always has the illusion that she is going to fight with Princess Anping.
This time, Hua Qian learned wisely, and stuffed a few pastries in Feiyun Palace before leaving.
She thinks so, the Moon Palace is located in a high position, it has just snowed a few days ago, it is very wet and cold, I heard Jinxin say, because the Moon Palace is remote, from the Imperial Diet Division to the Moon Palace to go a long way, in order to catch an auspicious time, the banquet has already been set down.
Hua Qian roughly estimated the distance from Feiyun Palace to Moon Picking Palace, and when they arrived, it was estimated that they could only gnaw on ice lumps.
Thinking about it like this, she carried two more pieces of dim sum into her arms, and by the way, she carried a soup woman, so she covered it all the way, and she didn't believe that she would be able to eat cold food when the time came.
The innocence is getting colder and colder, and the north wind is blowing, and the fine snow stars are drilled straight into people's necks.
If it weren't for the expectation of the palace and the embarrassment to ask for leave when entering the palace for the first time, Hua Qian actually wanted to be lazy.
Princess Changle dressed up, she was cold and noble when she didn't speak, and when she opened her mouth, she had no demeanor.
She sat on top of the chariot, tilted her body and said to Hua Qian, who was one step behind her: "Sister Huang, when you see An Ping for a while, don't pay attention to her, that person is very cheap." ”
"Okay." Hua Qian wanted to say that even if she ignored her, the other party would probably come up.
Emperor Xuantong is very good at giving birth, and the two daughters he gave birth to are completely virtuous, with a big temperament and a small heart.
I'm afraid that she offended Princess Anping like that last time, and she won't have an An's birthday in the future.
Thinking of this, Hua Qian held his head and sighed.
Princess Changle said again: "But you don't have to be afraid of her, if she doesn't come to provoke us with long eyes, we will join forces again, this time she won't be recognized by her mother." ”
Hanasa: "......"
She didn't want to join forces at all.
If she does it again, she doesn't know if the imperial concubine can recognize Anping, but one thing can be confirmed, the imperial concubine will definitely be able to chop her into pieces, and she can't put her together.
It seemed that thinking of that scene, Princess Changle couldn't help but dance a little with her hands, she waved her hand and made a large hand splitting posture, a little excited: "Sister Huang, the action you kicked her last time was so beautiful, I tried it several times in Feiyun Palace, and the kick was not as sharp as yours." You'll teach me later. 7 asked
Hua Qian was a little shocked: What do you want to do?
Although Hua Qian fishes in the water every day in Shimen, she can't resist the strength of the inheritance, and her current fist and foot kung fu is not in the eyes of Xue Qi, Shen Ye and others, but in the eyes of Changle, it is a master-like existence.
It's a pity that this "flower master" doesn't like to shoot very much, and Princess Changle pesters Hua Qian every day, just to learn a few more tricks.
Hua Qian felt tired, if she was really a master, she would be taught, but she still knew very well how many catties and taels she had, and what she was most afraid of was that in the process of teaching, she accidentally hurt Changle, then she had ten heads and it was not enough for Queen Wen to cut it.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if she is careful and does not hurt Changle, it is difficult to guarantee that Changle will not learn a few tricks and deal with other dragon sons and dragon girls, such as Anping, maybe there will be another "Sister of the Martial Arts Society"!
Hua Qian believed that she had provoked Changle, and she could do this kind of thing completely.
Is she going to live?
When the time comes, Queen Wen will say another "instigation", saying that everything is bad for her, hehe, and the result is imagined by herself.
Alas, she didn't dare to imagine it at all!
Seeing that Hua Qian's expression was uncertain and she didn't answer her words, Princess Changle wondered: "Sister Huang, what are you thinking?" ”
"Huh? Oh no, it's too cold, tsk, it's cold. ”
Changle nodded, looked up at the sky that was already slightly dark, and said, "Yes, this ghost weather, I see, it will snow again in a while." By the way, you should be careful when you go to the Moon Palace for a while. ”
Hua Qian held it in his arms with one hand and held his plush vertical collar with the other, and was puzzled when he heard it: "Why?" ”
"It's windy and cold in that place, and your body is not well ventilated, so naturally you should pay attention." She was referring to the two lashes that Hua shallow had received from her last time. How much weight to start with, Changle still has a number.
"It's okay, I'm much better." Hua Qian waved her hand indifferently, the medicine given by Xue Jinian was really good, she looked at her body in the past two days, and even the scars had faded a lot, and it was not long before she could not find even a trace.
Mentioning this, Princess Changle couldn't help but want to educate Hua Qian: "Sister Huang, do you say that you are too tired to eat, what kind of hero and hero." ”
Hua Qian clasped her hands, and lazily lifted her eyelids when she heard the words: "Yes, it is indeed overbearing, otherwise we don't have to come out now, it is cold and cold, and we are to blame." ”
With Queen Wen's temperament, it may be that she has been grounded and meditated on the wall. Not to mention keeping the New Year, it is estimated that they will not even be able to catch up with the Lantern Festival.
Princess Changle choked, glared angrily, and Huo turned around and sulked.
Hua Qian leaned leisurely on the chariot, and she didn't know what Xue Jinian was doing, she was thinking about the first day of the new year, should she send a New Year's gift to the East Factory?
But she didn't get the New Year's money today, and she will give him a gift tomorrow, and she feels panicked when she thinks about it.
Changle's anger came and went quickly, Hua Qian's calculations were not over yet, she had already eased up, leaned on the back of the chair again, and waved her hand to Hua Qian coquettishly: "Okay, Sister Huang, then I will listen to you from now on." ”
Princess Changle has never been a person who is easy to be a little low, and suddenly she is so easy to talk to, Hua Qian is very surprised.
She pondered: "How can you listen to me, it's better for you to be the master, but there are some things, it would be better if we could discuss them." ”
Changle nodded violently: "I understand, I will discuss with you the imperial sister if there is anything in the future, and we will think of countermeasures together." If you have a good brain and think about the way back, we won't be afraid of them. ”
Hanasa: "......"
I've got a good brain, how could I not know?
Changle chuckled: "This tells me to kill you and bury you, happy cooperation!" ”
Hanasa: "......"
Non-violent, non-cooperative, you don't want to!
The princess Changle continued: "Sister Huang, let's talk about it, when we think of countermeasures, the first one can't let go of Xue Jinian!" By the way, there's also that dog minion named Xue Qi! ”
Hua Qian hummed without being salty, but he thought in his heart, you and Xue Jinian thought together, and he was not ready to let you go.
As soon as Xue Jinian was mentioned, Changle was a little unable to stop, she was lying on the back of the chair, ready to discuss with Hua Qian how not to let go of the law, suddenly, the body was crooked, and the four people lifted the wood and suddenly upturned, low in front and high in the back, Changle couldn't react for a while, screamed, and fell forward with the chair.
This road of blue bricks and white stones, smashed face down, has to be full of flowers.
Fortunately, the first two guards reacted in time and grabbed her.
Princess Changle was frightened, and only stood up straight in embarrassment under the continuous shouting of Huazhi, and when she came back to her senses, she turned around violently and kicked hard at the guard kneeling in front of her: "Dog minion!" You want to kill Hongu! ”
"The princess forgives her sins, and the princess spares her life." All the subordinates hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Hua Qian was also startled, she jumped off the chariot, grabbed Changle and asked, "Are you okay?" You okay? ”
Changle shook his head, his expression was ugly, fortunately, there were all her people around, if An Ping saw her make such a big mess, where would she put her face?
Although it was a false alarm, she was still angry at the moment: "Say! What's going on? ”
"The princess spared her life, because her subordinates accidentally slipped and fell, please forgive the princess."
"Okay Changle, don't be angry, the road is slippery on this snowy day, and they didn't mean it."
Changle glared: "They dare!" I cut off his head! ”
The injured guard lowered his head, he wanted to say that it was not because of the slippery ground, he was walking steadily, but suddenly his leg bent and hurt before he fell involuntarily.
Just looking at the appearance of Princess Changle, if he said this, it would be another trouble, and if he had no evidence, the princess might not believe it.
They have been with Changle for a long time, and they know Changle's temperament to some extent, and she doesn't like anyone to shirk responsibility and fault.
If she had the courage to take responsibility, she might look up to her.
Sure enough, Changle scolded a few more hatefully, and after all, he didn't embarrass him again.
"You guys be careful, if you go on a business trip and hurt the imperial sister, the palace will pick your skin!"
Everyone should be yes again and again.
After a while, he began to walk forward again.
Hua Qian seemed to have a look under the osmanthus tree not far away, her eyes were not good at night, but it was very good in broad daylight, if she was not mistaken, it was Xue Qi, right?
Xue Qi is here, what about Xue Jinian?
@@@@
The Moon Palace is nearly twenty zhang high, the main building is to use a color bluestone to sit up, go straight to dozens of floors, the stone strip is deliberately not polished and smooth, rough and dignified, I don't know which generation of emperors on a whim, the style of painting is obviously inconsistent with the palace halls.
Today is the year of the year, and there is the most lively palace banquet of the year. As long as the concubines of each palace can be named, they will all be dispatched, and the collective subordinates will rush to the Moon Picking Palace.
Far away from the Moon Picking Palace, you can see the waiters on both sides of the road, shuttling back and forth.
On the Chinese New Year's Eve of the Great Jin Dynasty, the court has always had a banquet at the Imperial Pole Terrace, and after the banquet, the monarchs and courtiers enjoyed together, and then they went up to the Moon Palace to enjoy the scenery.
Emperor Xuantong probably felt that he had been so step-by-step every year, and it was not very good to reflect his lofty status as the co-lord of the world.
The Moon Picking Palace is an independent palace, its special feature is not only high, but also that the steps to the top of the palace are not like ordinary palaces are wooden ladders built indoors, but a special winding and narrow stone steps that only allow two people to squeeze together, extending upwards in a spiral shape around the open air of the palace.
So the road, it's not only long, it's also steep.
And because there are few people on weekdays, there are a lot of mosses on this bluestone step, mixed with the frost and ice on it, even if the palace attendants have swept it, it is still very slippery.
Hua Qian stood under the palace wall, looked up at the harem beauties who were holding hands for a long time but still screaming, and sighed secretly, this emperor is really harmful.
In case anyone who doesn't have long eyes to roll down, the person who follows behind is estimated to be unable to catch it, and there is no other way than to roll along.
On weekdays, these beauties act dignified and steady, behave gently and movingly, speak softly, all of them are a group of ladies with a beautiful demeanor, and they think that their unique style is unique and unique, and no one can get used to anyone in the palace.
Even on this steep and long stone step, it is still necessary to compete for style, whether it is a tactful cry or a roar of a lion in Hedong, the characteristics are surprisingly consistent, the tone is extremely high, the waves are magnificent one after another, and the lung capacity is more than one foot.
Look at Hua Qian, who has been leaning up her neck, Changle didn't know why she came over: "Sister Huang, what are you looking at?" Aren't we going up? ”
Hua Qian smacked his lips: "No hurry." ”
