Chapter 2 The concubine saves the phoenix
On the 13th of July, the sky was fine and the sun was shining.
Jing Chuchu went to the flower bridge from the palace and entered the palace in a beautiful way.
The flower bridge knocked all the way and entered from the east gate.
However, when they arrived at the east gate, the flower bridge suddenly stopped.
"What?" Jing Chuchu asked in a low voice the personal maid Cuiping who was waiting by the window.
"Miss, there are several small birds at the door, as if they are injured." Cui Ping said with pity.
As soon as he heard this, Jing Chuchu felt that the whole person was not good.
The name of Our Lady of the original owner spread throughout the capital, and she was happy to treat any injured fish, rabbits, and birds.
So this bird must have been deliberately laid down against her.
Because she wants to enter the palace, if she delays the time and does not comply with the rules, but if she doesn't save it, then the things that the original owner did before will definitely be said to be grandstanding and gaining fame.
It's a dilemma.
"Miss? Are we going to get these birds back? The slave and maid had wound medicine on them, and depending on the situation, the birds had broken their feet. Cui Ping saw that she was silent, and said earnestly.
"Yes, miss, I also have gauze and medicinal wine with me." The maid on the other side also said.
Jing Chuchu: "......." So how much did the original owner have that he actually let the personal maid carry gauze, medicinal wine and wound medicine with him??
Since the two of them are so enthusiastic, if they don't save themselves, it will make them suspicious, once they go to the Jing family, the Jing family will definitely think that they have betrayed their nature in order to abide by the rules, and they have suffered great grievances!
More is better than less, Jing Chuchu had no choice but to say: "Cuiping take a handkerchief and bring these birds over, and I will bandage them on the bridge." β
This kind of thing is familiar to Cuiping. She quickly brought back the three injured birdies.
Jing Chuchu took it and put it in the flower bridge, carefully watching where these birds were injured.
"I-q-" didn't look at it, she didn't care, and at this look, she was so angry that she almost spat out the fragrance.
These little birds were obviously born to break a leg!
"Miss? What's the exclamation? Cuiping, who didn't know it, immediately lifted the curtain and asked with concern.
"βand see what's going on?" Fortunately, Jing Chuchu changed his words in time and signaled that Cui Ping was fine, and Cui Ping put down the curtain again.
Jing Chuchu was secretly annoyed, I really don't know who this is, to trample on these innocent little lives like this, just to design himself?
Fortunately, in her last life, because she wanted to make money, she worked part-time in a pet store, and she could deal with some simple wounds.
She asked Cui Ping and Lu Zhu for wound medicine, and carefully bandaged the three birds.
"Miss, can you still be saved?" Cui Ping asked at the window.
"The wings are not injured, and they should still be alive."
Saying that, Jing Chuchu gently handed the bandaged little bird to Cuiping, and instructed her, "First ask someone to take care of them for two days, and then find a good place to release them." β
The little bird made a few crisp bird calls in Cui Ping's hand, and Cui Ping said to Jing Chuchu with a smile, "Miss, aren't the little birds expressing their gratitude to you?" β
Jing Chuchu only smiled slightly and didn't speak again.
And this scene, from beginning to end, was in full view of someone hiding above the city tower.
This person is not an outsider, it is Jing Chuchu's cousin, Lan Ruyue, who is also the famous Lan Jieyu in the palace.
Lan Ruyue watched Huaqiao slowly enter the palace with her own eyes, and a smug sneer appeared on her face, "Hmph, Your Majesty is the most joyful person, and he is very disgusted with these birds and beasts, especially the smell on them. At the beginning of the day, you still want to fly on the branches as a phoenix, but I am afraid that the smell of bird feces on your body for a while will make Your Majesty never want to see you again in his life! β
Looking at the sedan chair below, Lan Ruyue's eyes were more and more full of hatred, as if through the top of the sedan chair, she could see the appearance of the Virgin at the beginning of the year!
Thinking back then, if it weren't for Jing Chuchu, how could she Lan Ruyue be sent out of the General's Mansion because she stepped on a chicken to death? !
Jing Chuchu was born with a good life, and he was loved by his parents and three brothers, so he could crush himself everywhere!
And she Lan Ruyue refused to admit defeat, and finally entered the palace with the talent she had created, and became Jieyu, thinking that she could finally overpower Jing Chuchu.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty actually issued a direct decree to make her a concubine!
O concubine!
Why?!
If you want to talk about family history, talent, and female morality, there are so many women in the world, how old is she at the beginning of her career? !
Could it be that because she always likes to take in those stray cats and dogs, she is lucky to leave the shit?!
The more Lan Ruyue thought about it, the more angry she became, and the more she stared at Huaqiao, the more she looked like she had been quenched with poison, and in the dark, it looked as if it was as terrifying as a green light.
And Jing Chuchu, who was sitting in the sedan chair, of course, didn't know anything about it.
When her flower bridge arrived in the palace, she was taken to the altar in the palace by the eunuchs of the Internal Affairs Office.
In the Kingdom of Yun, only when the emperor and the queen get married, a canonization ceremony will be held, but if a high-ranking family girl like a noble concubine or a fourth concubine needs to go to the royal jade, she also needs to worship with the emperor first, tell the ancestors, and then give the palace to live after a series of cumbersome regulations.
Jing Chuchu got off the flower bridge, and under the gap in the hijab, he saw a cluster of robes embroidered with gold thread dragon patterns swaying in front of his eyes.
"When the auspicious time comes, offer incense and tell your ancestors." At this moment, a high-pitched voice suddenly sounded.
The emperor was about to reach out to hold Jing Chuchu's hand, but when he heard behind him, there were suddenly bursts of phoenix birdsong.
Everyone raised their eyes, but saw several phoenixes in their eyes suddenly falling from the sky and spinning around Jing Chuchu's head.
"O phoenix! It turned out to be a phoenix! The concubine has attracted a phoenix! β
"Oh my God! The old man has seen a real phoenix for so many years! β
"Great joy! Good luck! Auspicious sign! The concubine has attracted a phoenix! β
After all, this is a miracle, which instantly caused a sensation in the palace, and even the Queen Mother, who has been living in the Buddhist hall all along, was shocked.
The emperor was also a little stunned, but his face was pale, so he lifted Jing Chuchu's hijab, and said in a deep voice: "It's the real phoenix, look at it." β
Caught off guard, Jing Chuchu was taken off the hijab, and a handsome and noble face came into his eyes.
She knew that the emperor was young, but she couldn't imagine that he was so young!
It looks like he is in his early twenties, with a face like a crown of jade, delicate facial features, picturesque eyebrows, deep eyes, a hanging nose, thin lips, a slender figure, upright, sparse as a bamboo, and a majestic temperament.
Jing Chu was stunned for a moment, but he was still awakened by the phoenix's chirping.
When she looked up, she saw seven or eight fiery birds circling around her.
After a few laps, the birds soared into the sky.
She suddenly understood, could it be that the birds she saved just now were the young birds of the phoenix, and they came to thank her?
"Congratulations to Your Majesty on the joy of the concubine, the concubine Niangniang has attracted auspiciousness, and she will definitely be able to protect my cloud country for thousands of generations!"
The ministers who watched the ceremony knelt down and congratulated loudly.
"The Queen Mother's decree, the concubine invited auspiciousness, the palace was overjoyed, and a special banquet was held in Cining Palace, and all the concubines gathered. Chin this. β
In this way, Jing Chuchu received the queen mother's decree, and then dodged a series of cumbersome regulations in a daze, put on a stick of incense, and was carried back to the Cheng'en Hall given by the emperor by the bridge.
"Concubine Niangniang, you go back to the Cheng'en Hall and hurry up to bathe, go to see the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is very happy today, not only to set up a banquet, but also to give you a reward! There are so many concubines in this palace, you are the first person who can ask for a reward from your mother-in-law! The eunuch who followed was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth and eyes, and he mentioned in Jing Chuchu's ear.
Jing Chuchu nodded, and rewarded him with some silver.
And here, in the Lan Yi Palace, Lan Ruyue heard the report of the palace people, and was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
