Section 49 Walking in the clouds and flowing water, walking in the mountains and before the rain

The weather on this day was not very good, overcast, clouds piled up in the sky, and the sun was almost half covered, but fortunately, the sky was still bright, and there was no intention of rain. According to the charter, Yao Jin arrived at Yongyang Hall very early, and there was already a group of palace people who were dedicated to ceremonies, responsible for the affairs of the princess's ceremony. Yao Jin first bathed and changed clothes, and a group of sisters-in-law wiped her body and hair everywhere, although she tried her best to be expressionless on her face, her heart was broken, especially after she stripped naked and entered the bathtub, there were still four sisters-in-law and four girls around her, all hands on her hand to help her take a bath, the moment when eight hands reached into the bath bucket, Yao Jin could only desperately meditate in his mind: This is not my body, not my body, not my body!

At the end of the bath, four more sisters-in-law came to comb their hair, because the hairstyle had to be changed during the ceremony, so the sisters-in-law just kneaded their hair, combed it carefully with freshly made jasmine oil, hung a strand on each sideburn, and combed the rest to the back of their heads, tied it with a yellow ribbon for the royal family, and lightly tied a slipknot.

After this set of tosses, Yao Jin only felt that although he didn't do any physical work, he was hungry. When she got up in the morning, she was worried about seeing the moon white today, and she didn't have much appetite. I just drank a bowl of red date porridge hastily, and the small flower roll of half a glitter ham was only eaten after being persuaded and persuaded by Long Wan, although there was a little grumbling in my stomach now, looking at the surroundings, it was estimated that there were all the queen's people, and I didn't want to do much, so I just swallowed my saliva. The people who dressed her up in the house were all done with their work at this moment, leaving the four girls who were originally serving in the house, and the rest of them all withdrew.

Yao Jin glanced at the screen at the door, the sunlight outside seemed to be better than in the morning, because there was still a distance away, and she didn't know the situation in the main hall in front, so she asked the nearest little palace maid on the side, "Has the time come?"

"Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, there is still about two sticks of incense left, and you can get up. ”

"You go to the front and see who is here. ”

"Yes, Your Highness. The little palace maid respectfully retreated, and came back when she touched a stick of incense and said: "Her Royal Highness the princess, the second prince, the third prince, the Jiaoqian county lord of the Xishan Palace, the two county lords of the Xunyang Eldest Princess's Mansion, and the county lords of several clans are all seated. There are also three young ladies, the slaves and maids have never seen them in the Yongyang Palace, and they are about the families of several adults in the previous dynasty. ”

"Family ......" Yao Jin pretended to be nonchalant and said: "I have seen most of these people you mentioned, but those three young ladies have never heard of them. I wonder what they look like, are they particularly good?"

The little palace maid replied without thinking: "The slave maid is just a little palace maid in the palace, and she doesn't dare to look up at the appearance of the noble girls. ”

Yao Jin frowned, thinking that the people of this Yongyang Hall were really good at talking, and sure enough, they didn't leak, so he changed the topic again: "All the items for the main hall have been arranged?"

"Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, everything has been arranged. The auspicious clothes and hairpin crown have just been accepted by the aunts after they have been inspected, and they are both placed in the designated positions. At this moment, the eldest princess of Xunyang is accompanying the queen mother to talk in the flower hall, according to the hour, His Majesty has already gone down to the court at this moment, and he will probably be on the way here. ”

"Oh, good. Yao Jin looked the little palace maid up and down, and felt that she was a very refreshing and neat girl, so she asked, "What is your name, and which aunt is you following on an errand?" ”

"Returning to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the slave maid is called Yang Ying, who used to be on an errand with the dragon maiden, and is now responsible for guarding this palace. ”

Yao Jin looked around at the room where he was, although it was gorgeous, but at a glance, he knew that he didn't need it every day, and he was on duty in such a vacant room, presumably this girl had been ostracized since Long Wan left, so she would be sent here. She thought of the useless guys in her palace, and she couldn't help but feel a move in her heart, and just as she was about to say more, there were three long bells and drums beating outside, which meant that the guest of honor and the guest of honor were in place, and the ceremony was about to begin.

"It's about the same time. Yao Jin got up slowly, glanced at Yang Ying lightly with his afterglow, and said with a smile: "Yang Ying, I didn't bring a personal palace maid today, so you can help me out." ”

Yang Ying was a little surprised, she glanced at the four girls from Chenghuan Xiaozhu who were standing on both sides of the screen with her spare eyes, although she was puzzled, she quickly walked to Yao Jin's side, held her hand steadily, and said in a low voice: "Your Royal Highness the princess, be careful, there is still a way to get to the main hall from here." ”

"Don't worry, I'm careful, I'm going to walk this road well-" Yao Jin paused for a moment, and then said: "Yang Ying, you also have to be careful and see clearly, so that you can walk your way well." ”

The Li Dynasty's generation only produced Yao Jin, a princess, and she was very loved by the emperor, although the queen felt that she was of unknown origin, but for the sake of the emperor's face, she still handled this ceremony with her heart. The guest of honor was naturally the emperor and queen, and the guest invited the most respected princess of the royal family to preside over the ceremony, and the guests who watched the ceremony originally invited a few familiar members of the royal family, but the queen invited the young women from the clan relatives and the important ministers of the former dynasty to come, she felt that it was not only to make up for Yao Jin's regret that she did not hold a princess ceremony, but also to give her enough face, and to see the candidates to be given to the three princes of the Li Dynasty again, killing two birds with one stone.

With such an arrangement, the queen is satisfied, and Yao Jin is even more satisfied. She heard that Lin Yuebai's name was in the guest list for the ceremony, and she had mixed feelings for a long time: she was happy that she could finally meet Yuebai, but she was worried that her appearance had changed slightly, whether Yuebai would not recognize her, or Yuebai really recognized her on the spot, and more importantly, how to find a chance to meet and talk to her alone, thinking about it day and night, it was really like a year, and it was easy to get to this moment, Yao Jin saw that she was finally about to step into the door of the main hall, and her heart was excited: in this strange world, she could finally get infinitely close to her Yuebai。

At this time, the main hall has already smoked incense, and the ceremonial music team of Taichang Temple plays music slowly on the east side, and the chimes are sometimes low. Sometimes light, accompanied by the solemn and reserved singing of the eldest princess Xunyang, everyone's eyes are focused on the girl who enters the palace with her head held high: Yao Jin's appearance is naturally a big difference against the backdrop of the first beauty in the capital like Jiaoqian, and the person is also thin, fortunately, compared to those noble daughters who are so delicate that they can't walk on the road, her posture is tall and conspicuous, especially when she walks, her pace is chic, although she can only wear a plain shirt and skirt according to the regulations, and there is no decoration, Yao Jin is not shy and twisted at all, just staring at the front lightly, with a smile on the corner of her mouth that seems to be a smile but not a smile, It is naturally a bit contemptuous and rude to put on such a demeanor at such an important ceremony, but who is Yao Jin? It was in the modern complicated internal factional battles of large companies that have been decided, passed five levels and cut six generals, she is neither nervous, nor the slightest timidity, she has long thought about taking this opportunity in front of her to let everyone present know who she is, even if as Li Zheng said, there is no background and no power behind her, but she and these people, these ancients who have been separated from her for thousands of years, it is really too different. Yao Jin thought like this, the smile on the corner of her mouth became a little more obvious, everywhere she looked, she couldn't feel her pride, she didn't care, she raised her hand to salute, and between one step and one bow, she had a flowing demeanor.
