Chapter 6 Plum Banquet
Old Mrs. Ji didn't treat Ji Feiyan very well because of Aunt Yun, only today the eldest grandson came to beg her, and she looked at the eldest grandson's face, so she asked Huan'er to come over and talk about it.
At this time, seeing Ji Feiyan's self-blame on his face kneeling in front of him, it was his granddaughter who watched him grow up, in the end, his heart softened, sighed, softened his tone and said, "Yan'er, you get up first." ”
Ji Ruhuan knew that her grandmother had a soft and hard temperament, and she was very stubborn in her previous life, because she suffered a lot from this temperament, but she wanted her to take Ji Feiyan into the palace, she was a hundred unwilling, so she said, "Isn't my sister thinking about it? Why do you still want to enter the palace to enjoy the plum?"
Ji Feiyan found that Ji Ruhuan was becoming more and more eloquent now, and with the fact that it came out some time ago, she felt that it was better to fight with her less, so she secretly pulled Ji Chengan on the side.
Ji Chengan stood up and said, "Grandma, you promised Cheng'an." ”
Ji Ruhuan hurriedly said, "Grandmother, you also know that this palace is not something that can be entered if you want to, since my sister has not received the invitation, it is better to stay at home, so as not to upset the princess, we can't afford to wait, Huan'er still has to go to see her father, so I will retire first, and come to see my grandmother later." ”
I didn't want to be stopped by Mrs. Ji, "Wait." ”
Ji Ruhuan sighed, turned around and asked, "What else is the matter with grandmother?"
I heard the old lady Ji speak, "Huan'er, you are just two sisters, you still have to support each other and take care of each other in the future, Feiyan has been locked up at home, you should go out more to see and socialize and walk around, tomorrow you take Feiyan into the palace together, with your friendship with the princess, how can you blame the princess for taking your sister into the palace? ”
Ji Ruhuan sighed, had to nod her head, looking at the triumphant smile on Ji Feiyan's face, Ji Ruhuan was really uncomfortable, and hurriedly left the upper room with a hello.
Mother Qiu saw that Ji Ruhuan had been gloomy since she came back from the upper room, so she opened her mouth to persuade, "Miss, in the end, you are sisters, even if you don't want to see each other, you can't come by your own temperament, sisters are not harmonious, this will make the old lady and the general feel cold, at least you have to look good on your face." ”
If it was before, Qiu's mother would definitely not dare to dissuade her like this, and it was only during this time that she saw the changes in her own young lady that she dared to say this.
Ji Ruhuan listened to Qiu's mother's words, took a deep breath, and nodded, Qiu's mother was right, since Ji Feiyan was going to act, she would accompany her, she wanted to see what she wanted to do under her nose.
Ji Ruhuan turned her head to look at Mother Qiu, "Mother Qiu, mother will follow when she enters the palace tomorrow, bring two more reliable girls, and watch her movements." ”
Qiu's mother bowed down in response, and Ji Ruhuan waved her hand, "Mom, go get busy." Then I calmed down and read the book.
When she got up early the next morning, Ji Ruhuan was cleaned up by Ji's mother, after all, she was entering the palace, and the things that should be paid attention to could not be saved at all.
Thirteen years old is the age of green onions, and Ji Ruhuan's appearance is one of the best in Kyoto, and he doesn't need too much rouge gouache, just lightly sweeping his moth eyebrows and lightly touching his lips, which is already bright and moving.
Even if Mother Qiu on the side saw it every day, she couldn't help but praise, "Miss is so good-looking." ”
Ji Ruhuan was not very satisfied, she always felt that she was too gorgeous at such an age.
asked Qiu's mother to comb her a double flat bun, and then paired with a light pink jacket skirt embroidered with gold and silver threads, which looked a little more childish.
Finally, she put on the light pink bead flower that Miss herself chose, and looked at the person in front of her, who was not as beautiful as before, but more in line with the age of thirteen, Qiu's mother nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Miss looks good like this." ”
Ji Feiyan was already waiting at the door, and when she saw Ji Ruhuan come out, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes, and she quickly put on a decent smile and leaned over to salute, "There is Sister Lao." ”
It was not easy for Ji Ruhuan to tear her up, so she didn't bother to take care of her at this time, and went directly to her carriage.
Qiu's mother on the side looked at it and sighed in her heart, Miss's temperament can't be changed for a while.
The Shogun's Mansion is not too far from the Imperial Palace, and the snow on the Kyoto Road is also cleared, but it does not affect the travel, and the carriage travels for about a quarter of an hour to the palace gate.
When they entered the palace, they could not go forward in a carriage, and when they got out of the carriage, there were already people waiting there with chariots.
The eunuch was only ordered to pick up Miss Ji, and looking at the extra young lady, he had to ask, "Miss Ji, who is this girl?"
Without waiting for Ji Ruhuan to reply, Ji Feiyan on the side responded with a smile, "Father-in-law, I am the second lady of the Ji family, and this is my sister." ”
Hearing that it was Miss Ji's sister, the eunuch glanced at Miss Ji, neither spoke nor refuted, so he didn't say anything more, and took the two of them into the palace together.
Bu Yuan sent them directly to the Imperial Garden, a group of women dressed in red and green, in this snow-covered Imperial Garden, it was really eye-catching, and from time to time there was a crisp laughter, which added a touch of vitality to this cold winter day.
Bu Yuan stopped at the entrance, and the palace maid waiting at the door led the group past the viewing pavilion.
There are windshield curtains all around, and as soon as you enter, you feel a warm breeze blowing in your face, and it turns out that there are several stoves burning around the pavilion.
There are thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls inside, all of them are like hibiscus, and their posture is not bad, which is really eye-catching.
After Ji Ruhuan entered the door, he led someone to salute the first princess Xinyi.
Princess Xinyi stood up with a happy face, and affectionately took Ji Ruhuan's hand and sat down in her place. And said, "Ruhuan, I can be regarded as waiting for you, I wanted to go out of the palace to find you a few days ago, but the queen mother always detained me, didn't let me go out of the palace, and detained me every day to learn the rules, but I was suffocated." ”
Ji Ruhuan smiled and responded, "Princess, isn't this also for your good?"
The two of them chatted happily, but they hung Ji Feiyan, who followed into the door, at the door.
Ji Ruhuan just didn't see it, she wouldn't be kind enough to introduce her, as for Princess Xinyi, she completely ignored the existence of this person, and as soon as Ji Ruhuan came, even the other girls who were originally here ignored it.
Although talking to Princess Xinyi, Ji Ruhuan also paid attention to the movements of other people here, so she saw Wang Xueying greet Ji Feiyan with a smile, and asked her to sit down beside her, and then the two of them got together and whispered.
This Wang Xueying, Ji Ruhuan was deeply impressed, and had a good friendship with Ji Feiyan, and later climbed to the fourth prince through Ji Feiyan's relationship.
Ji Ruhuan and Princess Xinyi are considered to be small, the emperor only thinks that Ji Ruhuan is his daughter who is fostered in the General's Mansion, and he has made excuses to let Ji Ruhuan enter the palace, of course, the best excuse is to accompany Princess Xinyi, who is about the same age as her.
It just so happens that the two are the same age, and the relationship is really getting better and better, and Princess Xinyi is also very favored by the emperor.
Thinking of what happened to Princess Xinyi in her previous life, Ji Ruhuan looked at Princess Xinyi, who was in a trance, the queen's party was all exiled because of rebellion, and the queen was demoted to the cold palace, and Princess Xinyi was completely collapsed, and died of illness in the palace within two years.
I still remember the last time I went to see Princess Xinyi, the palace was deserted and there was only one palace maid waiting, and Princess Xinyi was already terminally ill and lost her former look.
"Ruhuan, what do you think? Did you hear what I told you?"
"Huh?" Ji Ruhuan was too engrossed, but she forgot that she was talking to Princess Xinyi at this time, and she was directly distracted.
Princess Xinyi pouted and said, "What do you think?"
Ji Ruhuan smiled embarrassedly and replied, "I was thinking that this weather is especially suitable for bathing in the hot pool, if only you could go with me to the Zhuangzi outside to soak in the hot pool." ”
Princess Xinyi's eyes lit up when she heard this, and then she dimmed again, "The queen mother won't agree, these days I'm being detained to learn the rules." ”
Ji Ruhuan approached Princess Xinyi and whispered a few words in Princess Xinyi's ear, Princess Xinyi's eyes lit up, and she responded, "It's really a good idea, or you have a way." ”
"Princess, sister, Feiyan wants to go out. Ji Feiyan suddenly spoke up, interrupting Ji Ruhuan to talk to Princess Xinyi.
