Two days before the Queen Mother's birthday.

After washing all the toilets, Bei Jueshi sat bored on the stone steps of the small courtyard in a daze. In the past few days, Song Gongbao has gone all out to prepare for the birthday banquet, and he can't find spare time to come to tease his "Little Beibei", and the incense room will be much more peaceful here. Song Gongbao didn't come to harass, Jing'er was also busy preparing to attend the birthday banquet and didn't have time to go to Yangxin Garden, except for washing the toilet, there was nothing else to do, only to stay in the incense delivery room bored, listening to the eunuchs who also had nothing to do say all kinds of gossip news in the palace.

I heard that there were originally two empress dowagers in the current dynasty, one was the empress dowager Rensheng, the mother of the current emperor, that is, the empress Chen of the first emperor; One is the emperor's biological mother, the Empress Dowager Cisheng.

And this time it is the birthday of the Empress Dowager Rensheng, it is said that she is frail and sick and unable to have children, and has always regarded the emperor as her own child, and loves him very much. Therefore, the emperor not only respects this mother-in-law but also is very filial, and this birthday banquet of the Empress Dowager Rensheng was also supervised by the emperor himself.

However, all this royal lace news has no meaning to the low-level little eunuch Bei Juese. What he is most concerned about is whether he will wash the toilet more than usual on the day of the Queen Mother's birthday, and whether he will be able to see Jing'er after the birthday banquet. She hasn't been seen since she gave Shoutu to Jing'er that day. After the queen mother's birthday banquet, you should be able to meet her and teach her to embroider a hundred flower patterns, right?

As dusk approached, the supreme leader of the Agricultural Academy, Bai Gonggong, came back with a smile on his face and humming an out-of-tune tune with high spirits. As soon as he returned, Bai Gonggong summoned all his eunuchs to the hall, threw out a few large cloth bags, and instructed: "You must hang up and place all the things in here tonight, and there can be no omission!" ”

Everyone gathered around to open the cloth bag and take out the contents of the contents, all of which were huge Shoulian, Shou Banner and the like; Most of the paper on which Shoulian writes the words of birthday celebration is red or gold, and the bottom of the paper is lined with brightly colored cloth; Shoushu is written on red or satin, silk cloth or velvet and other fabrics with golden birthday words, red and gold reflect each other to show the atmosphere of wealth.

On the day of the Queen Mother's birthday, the emperor finally came to the place of the Agricultural Academy.

The emperor has a decree, the queen mother's birthday, the whole world congratulates, and the emperor gives the palace people in each room and courtyard in the palace to rest for a day, and they all go to celebrate the birthday of the queen mother.

Before dawn, the eunuchs in the agricultural courtyard got up to freshen up and prepare. For this group of eunuchs who have no status, it is rare to have the opportunity to meet high-level figures in the palace in a year, and today to be able to celebrate the birthday of the queen mother is a great opportunity to contact high-level figures. With such a mind, they all used their magic weapons to dress themselves up in a fancy way. That's right, it's a showmanship, for them, grease and powder can show their natural charm, and they will have more chances to win the favor of the high-level......

When the day began to dawn, Bai Gonggong appeared. This supreme leader, obviously, came out to meet people after some careful dressing, just look at the thick powder on his face, the thick rouge on his lips, and the two big red flowers that were specially pinned to his hat and chest.

This group of talents who are flamboyant and charming makes the north look embarrassing. Fortunately, he didn't want to follow the brigade and dress up as a peacock, he just had to follow the brigade to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday.

Under the leadership of Bai Gonggong, everyone in the farm house, except for the green onion and the northern beauty, all set off to their destination with hope and joy.

When I walked out of the north of the agricultural courtyard, I found that the palace was full of lanterns and colorful lanterns, and was full of bright birthday couplets and birthday banners to celebrate birthdays, and there were huge birthday screens in some places. Every place in the palace is full of festive and auspicious atmosphere, everywhere you can see very busy walking around moving things, the luxury of the emperor's house, it is really unimaginable for ordinary people.

Bei Jueshi, who had never seen such a scene, looked around curiously. He has grown so big, and he has never seen anyone celebrate his birthday in such a big formation, and the only way to celebrate on his birthday every year is to eat a bowl of shredded meat and egg noodles cooked by his father; The only gift was a new set of clothes made by Master, and now that Master has passed away, I am afraid that I will not even be able to eat noodles on my birthday in the future, let alone any gifts. Thinking of this, Bei Jue's expression darkened, and he was not interested in looking around.

The onion who was walking in front noticed that Bei Jue Se was only looking around, and he was behind the back of the team as he walked slower and slower, and he turned around and happened to see the gloomy look of Bei Jue. He stopped, waited for Bei Juese to come up, and then knocked on it, and said, "What are you dreaming of just getting up?" The palace is huge, don't get lost! ”

Bei Juese came back to his senses, touched his head and said dissatisfiedly: "How can I sleepwalk? I, I just remembered my master. ”

"Oh?" Shallot was surprised. This kid has never said anything about himself, and today he took the initiative to talk about something related to himself? Well, take this opportunity to trap him.

A wicked smile flashed on the face of the shallot, and he glanced at the people walking in front, and saw that no one looked back and looked back, so he walked to Bei Jue's side, lowered his voice and asked, "Your master?" Wasn't it the one who taught you how to embroider? ”

Bei Juese didn't notice the ulterior motive of the shallot, nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Shallot then asked, "Since you have a master, why don't you follow him and go to the palace for what?" ”

After a period of getting along, Bei Juese was no longer wary of shallots, so he said honestly: "Master, he passed away, and his old man handed me over to the care of his senior brothers before he died, but then he ......" Speaking of senior brother, his mind reflexively came up with the senior brother's sentence "You just follow me", trembled involuntarily, and the words stopped. Regarding the part of the senior brother, he really didn't want others to know.

Shallot saw the change in his face, but still deliberately asked, "But what happened next?" ”

Bei Juese snorted a few times, and said hesitantly: "Later, later, I entered the palace." ”

Seeing Bei Juese's expression, Shallot didn't force him to continue, but just looked at him seriously and said, "You can't tell the truth casually in the palace, so I have taught you before, right?" ”

Facing the shallot, which suddenly became serious, although Bei Juese didn't know what was going on, he quickly replied, "Yes." ”

The shallot said, "Just have it." If someone in the harem asks about your origins, you can't tell the truth. After speaking, he walked forward with an unfathomable expression on his face, and hung the north with a confused expression to the back. Shallot said this, he had his own plans. Don't let Bei Juese tell his origin, it's not really for his good, the biggest purpose is to not let his senior brother Dong Wushu find someone so easily. A little eunuch of unknown origin and few people know can hide silently in the palace for a long time.

Thinking of Dong Invincible going around the world like a headless fly to find someone, Shallot couldn't help but laugh from his heart. Bei Juese, who didn't see through his thoughts at all, thought about what he said very seriously.

After walking around the palace for a long time, I finally came to the place where I congratulated the Queen Mother on her birthday.

However, looking at the spectacular and neatly arranged human dragon in front of him, Bei Jue couldn't help but be stunned. The human dragon lined up straight into the front palace gates, and he couldn't see where the end was, only the black and pressed human head.

And the eunuchs of the Agricultural House were at the back of the line. The place where they stood, and the place where the Queen Mother held her birthday banquet, were separated by at least seven or eight high and thick palace walls.

A certain eunuch asked with the last hope: "We are here in line, waiting to take turns to go in to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother, right?" ”

Father-in-law Bai snorted and said, "Think beautifully!" Is the Queen Mother casually let people see? Do you think you're in the same position as mine? You stay here obediently, and when you see what the people in front of you do, you can just do it, and don't lose the face of the farm. With that, Bai Gonggong swept the eunuchs under him with a proud posture, and walked forward along the human dragon with his head held high.

However, he only walked to the nearest gate of the palace and was stopped by a figure dressed as a palace guard. Seeing that he seemed to be arguing or negotiating with the guard, the guard still resolutely refused to let him go.

Seeing Father-in-law Bai walking back with his head down, Shallot glanced at him and said disdainfully: "Father-in-law, it seems that you have the same status as us." ”

The other eunuchs in the Agronomism couldn't help but laugh out loud. Father-in-law Bai didn't dare to be angry with the green onion, so he had to spread his depression on the others: "What are you laughing at!" Stand up for me! ”

At this moment, a low horn sound came from the heavy palace gate. Hearing the sound of the horn, the people in front began to kneel down one after another, and Grandpa Bai hurriedly said, "It's started, you all kneel!" ”

In the main hall of the Shou Hall that is separated by several palace walls, it is very lively, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty who came to congratulate the birthday with generous gifts stand outside the hall from the palace.

The two sides of the hall are the same as other places, and they are surrounded by lanterns and are full of graceful and luxurious longevity couplets and longevity banners; Piles of shou bao, shou noodles and other items are placed around the hall. On the front wall of the main hall is a big picture of "a stroke of life", and there are vivid huge pictures of the eight immortals on both sides.

In front of the word "Yishou", there is a large square table covered with colorful brocade, on which are placed jade pots, gold cups, silver chopsticks, seasonal fresh fruits, delicate snacks, and other items such as longevity bags made into the shape of pink leaf fairy peaches, and among these items are also dotted with blooming flowers.

A middle-aged lady wearing a jade pearl and gold phoenix crown, gold and jade earrings in her ears, and a red court dress with a collar and large sleeves, and kind eyes sat behind the square table with a kind smile. To her right sat a middle-aged beautiful woman also wearing a red court dress, with a golden phoenix hairpin on her head, and a gold bead earring, with a somewhat serious expression and slightly raised eyebrows; Sitting on the left is a beautiful young man wearing a golden silk winged double dragon crown, a yellow robe, and a cute smile.

Sitting in the middle is today's birthday star, the Empress Dowager Rensheng.
