Chapter 23: The Winter Solstice (1)

?

Before the emperor returned to the palace, my foot injury had already healed, perhaps the queen had informed the palaces in advance, so when everyone saw the Zhu family the next morning after the emperor returned, they were not too surprised.

"Ouch, this sister looks very angry, I don't know which lady in the prince's mansion. "It was Xin Jieyu who spoke, the biological mother of the Nine Emperor Sons, her father is the imperial history, and she is usually a pungent 'sexual' personality, I heard that the emperor brought back a businessman's 'daughter', she is inconvenient to directly admonish the emperor, for the Zhu family, a sarcasm or two is considered light.

Zhu's face was red and white for a while, and the queen smiled: "This is the Zhu Cai 'daughter' who the emperor brought back from the Zhu family in Yongzhou, and now lives in Ziwei Hall!"

Xin Jieyu smiled brighter and brighter, and said loudly: "It turned out to be Zhu Cai's 'girl'!"

Zhu was at a loss, and the queen said: "This is the biological mother of the Nine Emperor Sons, Xin Jieyu, who is the most refreshing 'sexual' person." Then he started to be introduced from the concubine, Zheng Guifei was turning back to talk to Xu Chongrong, and the Zhu family bowed to her, but she just didn't see it.

"My Ko Danyan 'color' this time is not good, it looks like it's a big red 'color', why did it fade in just two days, I look at my sister, your nails are 'very' beautiful, but what is the secret recipe. "Zheng Guifei blindly discussed the 'color' of her nails with Xu Chongrong, and completely disdained the Zhu family who was kneeling on the ground.

Xu Chongrong didn't say much, it was rare for the concubine to be willing to say a few words to her, she was busy saying: "Where is the secret recipe for the concubine, the concubine uses the juice of the phoenix fairy 'flower', and she can't get the red 'color', she can only use the purple red 'color'!"

"The purple red 'color' is not bad, but it is still not as expensive as the red 'color'!"

"What the concubine said is very true, the concubine doesn't understand this!"

The queen coughed lightly, and Concubine Zheng lazily turned her head, took a sip of tea, raised her hand and said, "Get up." "I didn't talk to her much, and continued to 'fiddle' with my own Kodan.

I sat with my eyes and nose, and this time, as before, everyone was not happy to have any 'intersection' with the 'daughter' of the businessman under me.

As soon as the end of the please, they went back to the palace, I walked on the bluestone road on the chariot, and said: "It's getting colder and colder this day, if it snows, the chariot can't sit still, you have to take a small sedan chair!"

As he was talking, a call came from behind: "Niangniang, please stay!"

The step stopped, and the Zhu family caught up, and said with red eyes: "Niangniang stays, the concubine has a word to ask!"

I saw her aggrieved look, but I was afraid that I had never suffered today's humiliation, so I listened to her, she wiped the corners of her eyes and said: "We are also old acquaintances, so I want to ask my mother, I ...... The concubines really don't know how to offend the mothers of the palaces today......" said and already sobbed.

I looked at the clear sky above the eaves and wings in the distance, and said leisurely: "Since you have entered the palace, you should have thought that there will be today's scene, most of the harem concubines are the 'daughters' of the official eunuch family, even if they are from the palace 'women', they are also sent to the palace by the sons of good families, and they are still the first ones with a background like my sister." "I said this, it's not convenient to say more, I hope she can understand, but, people always know their identity, know what kind of environment they are in, only by correcting their mentality, do they know how to act, otherwise, they can only be trampled on.

In my previous life, I was a favorite concubine, but I thought that as long as I had the king's favor, I would have nothing to fear, but there was a queen and a concubine, and there were nine concubines and concubines.

Watching Zhu leave in despair, I could only shake my head and sigh, since she chose this path, she could only go on.

Like in the previous life, the Zhu family lived in Ziwei Hall, and lived with those unfavored 'women', the emperor never invited her, and her entry into the palace was just a pebble thrown into the sea, except for a ripple, there was no sound.

'Chun' Fen told me about Zhu Cai's 'girl', and sighed: "The slave maid thought that the one in Guan Ju Palace would take advantage of it, but who knows, there was no movement at all!"

After Wang Meiren was beaten into the cold palace, Zheng Guifei only had Yuancai people by her side, but Yuancai people were also nearly thirty, and they were no longer favored by the emperor.

"No matter what, Zhu's background is different from others, I think, maybe Zheng Guifei is also afraid of being contaminated with copper stench. "The Shangshi Bureau sent a pomelo, I was in good spirits, and I ate it myself," What's more, Zheng Guifei is not a reckless person, even if she wants to promote someone, it depends on the weight of that person in the emperor's heart, Zhu Cai's 'daughter' has been unfavored since she entered the palace, it can be seen that in the emperor's heart, it is just like this, a useless chess piece, how can Zheng Guifei be interested!"

'Chun' Fen smiled and nodded: "What Niang Niang said is very true!"

A string of beaded curtains 'jade' moved, Gu Yu walked in with a scroll and a smile, and said: "It's about to be the winter solstice, and the ninety-nine cold relief map distributed by the queen mother has come down, I don't know what style it is in our palace!"

I also said with great interest, "Open it and take a look!"

When the scroll opened, there was a pair of double-hooked red calligraphy, with nine words on it: "The weeping willows in front of the court cherish the 'spring' wind." "Nine strokes per word, a total of eighty-one strokes, from the beginning of the winter solstice every day according to the order of strokes to fill a stroke, every nine to fill a word, until after the ninety-nine 'spring' back to the earth, a ninety-nine cold map is considered to be completed, fill in the daily strokes used in the color 'color' according to the weather of the day to decide, sunny is red, 'yin' is blue, rain is green, wind is yellow, snow is white.

"It's calligraphy. Gu Yu didn't seem to be very happy, "I heard that the concubine is a deputy Han Mei Tu, which is much more refined than this!"

"Chunfen" frowned and glanced at her, she hurriedly lowered her head, I smiled, and said: "I used to fill in the Hanmei map when I was at home, but the calligraphy is more formal, you see, our calligraphy can use different colors, Hanmei can only use red 'color', and it is said that powerful people can predict the weather for next year through this cold map!"

"Really. Gu Yu's curiosity was aroused.

I smiled and said, "When the time comes, fill it in, ask someone from the Taishi Bureau!"

Saying that, he asked people to hang up the cold map, and after two days Qi Heng came to my palace, he saw the cold picture, and after looking at it for a while, I didn't understand what it meant, he thought about it and said: "What I saw yesterday in the concubine is the cold plum picture, and you are hanging here is painted red!"

I smiled and said, "Most of the people in the harem are painted red, and the noble concubine is naturally an exception." "I won't fight with the concubine because of a picture, she is too strong, the picture of Hanmei in my previous life is in my palace, but I don't know how much idleness she suffers because of it.

He was speechless for a while, and when he paused, he said, "I received a letter from the eighth child today, saying that he would rush back for the winter solstice, and I haven't seen him for several years. After a pause, he said again: "I remember, he had dealings with Ji Fu!"

The alarm bell in my heart rang out, and while leaning sideways around his neck, I said softly: "The Eight Sages King 'Jing' is proficient in the six arts, and he was the piano teacher of the concubine, but the concubine has performed the great ceremony of apprenticeship, and the concubine saw him in the past, and it was the apprentice who visited the teacher, and now the concubine is also his sister-in-law, hehe!"

He grabbed the plump 'chest' in front of my 'chest' and 'kneaded' it, smiled noncommittally, and leaned over.
