8. The first meeting of the concubine (II)

Liguiren! Xingzhen remembered who Li Guiren was, wasn't that the miserable woman who had competed with Cixi in "Listening to Politics with the Curtain", and after the death of Emperor Xianfeng, she was made by Cixi as an adult and put in the wine vat? But thinking about it, I won't be so vicious now, relying on my hundreds of years of knowledge and broad-mindedness, it should be more than enough to justifiably defeat her.

In fact, the Ligui in history lived to the Guangxu period before dying of illness, which shows Cixi's open-mindedness.

"He Ta La's family visited Lan Concubine Niangniang, Lan Concubine Niangniang Wan Fu Jin'an." This palace woman wore a cheongsam embroidered with dark red embroidered branches and peony flowers, and a whole set of accessories with pigeon blood on her head, Qianqianyu's hands were dyed with rose-red impatiens, willow leaves like eyebrows, plum cheeks and apricot eyes, extraordinarily gorgeous, Xingzhen touched the hands of the nobles, looked up and down carefully, and thought: I'm going, Emperor Xianfeng is really blessed, this is a peerless beauty! No, I'm going to touch it more, big beauty, it seems that I don't look bad.

"The title is like its own, it is really beautiful and lovely, and it attracts people's eyes." Xingzhen let go of Li Guiren's hands and smiled at Zhen Concubine: "I am a child, I thought I was quite good-looking, but when I saw Li Guiren today, I realized that I was an iron worker, and people are shallots!" ”

Concubine Zhen also smiled and said, "But what, otherwise the title there is Li." ”

"The two mothers teased."

The three of them sat down as guests of honor, the little palace maid served tea, Xingzhen took a sip of tea, and listened to what Niu Hulu was talking to the noble people.

"The long-haired traitors are wreaking havoc in Hunan, and there are a lot less Nantian Yunwu tea produced in the Yunwu Peak of Hengshan, and the Baba of the Internal Affairs Office will give me a few taels in this palace, sister, you can taste it."

At present, the national disaster is still talking about these things to eat and play, Xingzhen is a little speechless, but this year's woman is already very virtuous and virtuous to stay and drink tea so quietly, Xingzhen is relieved: "Excellent tea, but unfortunately the concubine doesn't know much about tea, and it is wasted." ”

"The concubine also has some good tea there, please invite Concubine Lan to sit with me another day and drink a few sips of tea." Li Guiren is pretty with a little shrewdness, a little flattering to Xingzhen.

The three of them started talking harmoniously, Xingzhen knew those who were dressed in rouge and gouache, and she left Fan'er and Anqian, and it was estimated that she was unkempt and dirty, and she couldn't tell the difference between the clothes on the outside and the clothes on the inside, so the rhythm of the friendly tea party of the Xianfeng ** concubine was like this: most of them were Li Guiren who was talking with interest, and the concubine was quite interested in interjecting a few words, and Xingzhen was helplessly listening silently, and then thinking about her heart.

It seems that the ** of the Xianfeng Dynasty is very harmonious, there is no sword and sword shadow like in "Golden Branch Desire" and "The Legend of Zhen Huan", if you go to those dynasties where evil is frequent, you can still rest assured that you can read the Buddha and eat rice worms and wait for death, so it's okay, I can take care of the outside with peace of mind, sisters, let's build a united, harmonious and harmonious Xianfeng Dynasty**!

After talking for a while, the eunuch came in and saluted, saying that the meal had been served, and asked the masters where they were eating, and the concubine said with a smile: "The two sisters are here to use some indiscriminately, right?" ”

"Listen to my sister."

The three of them walked to the compartment outside, where a round table with shredded chicken and chrysanthemum, stewed apricot mushrooms in abalone sauce, steamed duck with eight treasures, braised fish tail, wild ginseng and conpoy winter melon soup, and a large bowl of green corn rice from the green fields were placed. Concubine Zhen asked in surprise, "Why did you order so much today?" ”

"Hui Niangniang, this morning the emperor made an order, the country is difficult, except for the concubines and concubines, all palaces have reduced their meals by half."

Xingzhen continued: "It's okay, the three of us sisters, it's enough to use these, and my sister doesn't have to bother with setting up any feasts." ”

"What Niangniang said is very true, I, Amma, am in charge of the household department, and I heard that the taxes in the south have not been solved in Beijing for half a year, and they are all requisitioned on the spot, and they are used to spend money to settle the chaos." Li Guiren pressed the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, and said that this thing belonged to the outer court.

"These traitors are truly hateful! It depends on when the army of the Eight Banners Green Battalion will destroy them! ”

See, who can get out of their environment? No, even if the ** concubines who don't interfere in politics anymore, they have to worry about the tea they drink, the food they eat, and the silk they use because of the affairs of the foreign court.

The three of them talked and laughed and had a meal, seeing that the concubine seemed to be a little sleepy, Xingzhen retreated with interest, and the Li nobles went out of the Zhongcui Palace together, and the Li nobles warmly invited Lan Concubine to sit in their Yonghe Palace at the palace gate, Xingzhen smiled and said: "At this hour, I went to your palace to disturb your rest, and I am not busy, there will be more time in the future, and it is not too late for me to come to you again." ”

Li Guiren smiled and said: "The concubine will retire first, and Sister Lan will walk slowly." ”

Xingzhen held Anqian's hand and slowly walked west from the gate of Zhongcui Palace, passed the Xue Xuan, arrived at the Imperial Garden, while walking and eating, the summer wood branches of the Imperial Garden were luxuriant, the two cranes stood leisurely under the banana leaves and took a nap, the sun was a little strong, but the osmanthus blossomed just right, the fragrance hit people, the Danfeng slightly got a little color, the whole far looked like a dark red cloud floating in the air, and the Imperial Garden was decorated like a Yaotai fairyland.

Xingzhen stood on the edge of the thousand carp pond, watched Anqian sprinkle some fish food and feed the koi in the pond, and called Fan'er: "The three letters I wrote when I got up early today, you took the time to send them out in the afternoon, and handed one to the family, and asked Eniang to send them to my father in the south quickly, and the two of them were sent to Young Master Ronglu," Xingzhen glanced at Anqian, Anqian was still feeding the carp as if nothing happened, and didn't seem to hear "Be sure to send it to him!" ”

"Yes, sissy."

"Anqian, you go back to the palace with me, see how the dinner in the small kitchen is going today, the emperor ordered a reduction in food, don't be extravagant and wasteful in our palace, and also, go there and find a copy of "Three Hundred Tang Poems", I will be useful."

"Yes, master, Tang Shi 300 is on the shelf in the study, do you think I'm going to look for it?"

"Okay, you go and find it, I'll take a nap first, hey, it's really tiring to eat with women, intrigue, and if you don't get it, you will have blood splashed on the spot."

Ancy snickered and stepped back.

Anhui, Taihu County, county school, the apricot yellow flag at the door reads: The Ministry of Rites Shilang Qinming Jiangxi Township Examination Zeng.

In the early afternoon, when it was supposed to be the time for a lunch break, an official in his forties with triangular eyes sat in the study with a sad expression, wearing a filial piety cloth on his head, holding a long beard of five willows and sighing, and a recital sheet was spread out on the table.

An elderly family member entered the study, and when he saw this, he said with concern: "Master, don't be too sad and damage your body, have you written this sad fold?" ”

"Hey, I'm really unfilial, I can't send the old lady to the end, well, the excerpt is written, you ask someone to send it to the capital quickly, and submit it to the imperial review, I will wait for the will of the saint in this Taihu County, and go back to Hunan Ding worry, and the township test can only be given to others."

"Yes."

Wuhu County, Anhui Province, Ningchi Taiguang Road Yamen.

Hui Zheng met the guests in the small study, instructed the housekeeper, and everyone waited for the arrival of the two maids who were waiting for the second gate to whisper under a huge golden laurel tree.

"Xiaoping, you say, what kind of guest is this coming? We're not allowed to wait in there. ”

"Sister, you can't even see this? It seems that the dust is in the dust, it should be from the north, it is estimated that it is our eldest lady in the palace, who used to be Lan Guiren, and now it is a letter sent by Lan Concubine's mother! ”

"It's no wonder."

"Don't say it, the young master who delivered the message is really handsome, comparable to that Pan An Song Yu!"

"I know that your little hooves have moved the heart of flowers, and you don't look at what you look like, are you worthy of that young master? Look at the young master's peach blossom eyes, he didn't even glance at you. ”

"I'll tear the mouth of your little hoof! Tell you to babble! ”

Hui Zheng remembered the letter he received a few days ago, his face was a little strange, and he couldn't figure out his daughter's behavior, what happened to this daughter? I don't want to think about how to serve the emperor well, but I care about these officialdom things outside, and I will definitely want me to help that person in the snow?

"What else did Concubine Lan tell you?"

"Uncle, Concubine Lan said in a letter to the younger generation, in recent years, things can not be done in Anhui and Jiangxi, thinking of Lord Daotai to hurry up and take precautions, she is in the palace, I will go to Hunan, one south and one north, one inside and one outside, two-pronged, the adults who will be able to protect are thoughtful and foolproof in the long-haired rebellion!"

The young man sitting on the chair with a tired face and high spirits is none other than Guarjia Ronglu!

The newcomer kneels and begs for all kinds of tickets, hee-hee.
