Chapter 30: Chinese New Year's Eve
I developed a new medicine for the queen. can ensure that she can be beautiful at the end.
I roast Chinese medicinal materials such as astragalus, poria, cinnamon branches, betel nut peel and other Chinese medicinal materials that are moist and wet, and then grind them into powder.
Then, the same amount of honey is "refined" and mixed with the medicinal powder to form an even dough like dough.
Finally, there are frustrations and pills. I do this very carefully, making sure that each pill is not too big or too small, and that the size of the pill is just too small.
Moreover, the amount of honey used is relatively small, so that the whole "Xiaoshui Pill" is quite hard and does not arouse people's desire to chew.
In this way, the "special condiment" that I hid in each pill was newly lightweight and hidden.
I keep the finished Xiaoshui pills for myself, and I plan to present three to the queen every other day. In this way, almost half a month later, it should be the day of harvest.
When I took this new medicine and gave a New Year's message to the Empress Dowager in the early morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, her eyes were full of longing.
"Fan Nushi, this is a new method I came up with a few days ago to speed up the weight loss?"
The gentleness I forced out was so gentle that I couldn't bear to look at it directly: "Queen Mother, the minister has come up with this recipe again, you just need to take it on time, and the effect will be immediate." ”
Her eyes sparkled, and they were like white stars. I tried one of the pills under her watchful eye, and after taking it with water, I smacked my lips and it seemed like it would have an aftertaste.
She was very satisfied with the results of the routine tasting.
I saw that she was happy to take it, and I was very satisfied.
On the first day, all of them are naturally free of "special condiments", and I will wait for you to taste the rest slowly. But don't worry, it's not fast, it's not slow.
To be honest with me, if you say it's special, it's really special.
The year is down, tonight Wanchun Hall will have a palace banquet to keep the New Year together.
This is the first time I have seen such a grand scene since I entered the palace. It's just that the entire harem is usually on the roster, gathered in one place, and the number of people is so impressive.
The lights are bright, as bright as day. Sheng, flute and wind music, difficult to the enemy's voice.
Bone china plates, white jade plates. Glittering silver chopsticks, pots with treasures. All the seats that come up with flowing water, the fresh fruits that can't be eaten, the meat aroma that can't be tasted, and the jade liquid elixir that can't be drunk is then full.
Tuo Zhou's lovely blessing sat at her table, and the noble concubine was the head of the four concubines, and was at one of the best viewing platforms at the moment. We are watching intently the show of Daozhou's tribute on the stage - the dwarf play.
Everyone was amused by the playful and witty performances of these little dwarfs, and the waves of cheers came and went, so happy.
Just then, I heard a familiar man's voice coming from my left......
But to my left is the seat of the feast! The emperor and the queen were sitting in the same high position at the moment, and I secretly glanced at it, but I still didn't dare to look directly at Long Yan.
"Good! Reward! ”
Another cheer nurtured my curiosity to the maximum.
I turned my head to look at the source of the sound, I was looking for the kind of past in the thousands of voices, and at this moment everything else was like a white horse, I only focused on finding the carrier of the sound - is it the emperor?
I was stunned.
Is it really him......
Not only does he have a familiar voice, but he also has a familiar face!
It didn't take long for him to feel that someone was staring at him. As soon as he turned his head, he met my eyes, and his eyes met, and he was lightning!
It is not the thought of the cloud tree, and it is not the beloved. In short, not friends, not lovers.
Although it is not an enemy meeting, it is enough to make people blush. The bloodshot in my eyes exploded into a knife, and I just want to gouge out my eyes at the moment, and I can encounter it here?
And he had a different look. still opened his natural peach blossom eyes, measuring me with ambiguous eyes.
Vomit......
Before the queen noticed that the two of us were staring at the "blade" and was about to glare at me, I hurriedly withdrew my eyes and turned my head to continue watching the show. At this moment, on the stage, I am jubilantly playing a "military drama", I laughed, and playing "Meeting on a Narrow Road" is even more emotional!
I switched places with Grandma Liu on the other side of Zhou Cuai, so that I could dim my figure and bury my head in the food pile to continue eating and drinking. Sometimes indulging yourself to make a balloon full of delicious food is also a kind of stress relief.
The dinner party until the ugly hour, the emperor and the queen left the venue as usual, and the emperor must go to rest on major festivals and the fifteenth day of the first month of each month.
After everyone made the last blessing for the night, they knelt on the ground to send off the holy queen and returned to Luang first. Seeing that the tail of the two of them was far away, I was finally able to breathe smoothly.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Su Xiao called me aside gorgeously and asked me: "Not only do you look directly at Tianyan, but you dare to look disrespectful!" Do you have an explanation? ”
How can I explain this, do I have to say that I knew him before I crossed over, and had a holiday?
I looked embarrassed: Auntie, why did you see this again?
Aunt Su nodded my head: "You girl, I don't know what I'm doing?" The Son of Heaven is my master, and I pay attention to his every move. ”
I bit my lip: "Emperor...... The emperor is very similar to a person I knew before, and he had a discord, so he didn't react for a while, and thought the emperor was him...... It's just, it's not very pleasant......"
Aunt Su sighed from her nostrils, and her anger did not decrease: "The emperor must have completely looked at you with angry eyes." But I was surprised that I couldn't see his anger at being hit by you! You know, no one has ever dared to disobey him. ”
I quickly said, "He's still happy." ”
Aunt Su raised her hand to hit me on the back of the head, but I quickly dodged. The slap slapped on my bun, and the hosta fell to the ground, "crackling", and shattered.
"You weigh it yourself, and whether the emperor still remembers to investigate it in the future depends on your blessings."
Aunt Su said sharply, turned around and left. Only my heart was slightly cold, looking at the few pieces of scattered white jade on the ground, the finely carved white rabbit, and also broke its ears.
It was the first ornament I wore on my head after crossing into this world, and I came across many gorgeous ones, but this one didn't make me feel as good.
It should have been brought out of home, I can feel it, it entrusts a piece of love to the giver, but now, it has been disappointed.
Before the first day of the Lunar New Year, the court participated in the magnificent worship of hundreds of officials, and the harem was a whole day of drama to watch.
It's just that today's stage is divided into several places, and each palace can be chosen at will.
One morning, except for the worship of the queen, the rest of the time began to accept all the harem concubines, I looked at Zhou Cute and polite mixed with impatience, and couldn't help laughing.
It wasn't until Xu Zhaoyi, who had not lost her son for a long time, entered the main hall of Qingluan Palace that the concubine slightly mentioned her spirit.
Looking at Xu Zhaoyi, who was already tall, now her neck probing seems to be more serious, she doesn't know people, and she feels that she is no different from a hunchback.
Her eyes sunken deeper, and she only asked herself to retreat after saying a blessing after saying goodbye weakly.
Here's your chance. As soon as the concubine and I looked at each other, she said, "Xu Zhaoyi, don't be in a hurry, this palace is worried when she sees that you are still in poor spirits." This year, it happened that Yangzhou Thorn Shi paid tribute to a top of the best and mysterious Guanyin, its material turned out to be made of coral and shells, this kind of auspicious things, the palace was presented to Xu Zhaoyi today, hoping that Zhaoyi would be blessed with it, and then add a dragon. ”
In this palace, rewards are the same as punishments, and there is no reason not to receive them.
Xu Zhaoyi had to thank the concubine.
The concubine raised her right hand: "Hurry up and excuse the courtesy, since this is the case, it is okay to escort Guanyin by the mortal girl Shi and place it in the shrine in the Zhaoyi Palace in person?" ”
Xu Zhaoyi paused, and had no choice but to salute and thank him.
It turned out that Xu Zhaoyi's shrine was hidden behind the dormitory, in a position between the wall and the backyard, and if I didn't look carefully, I thought it was a small toilet.
It's just that when I enter the door, there is no hole in it.
I didn't know that she was so interested in soaking wine, all kinds of insects, snakes and ants, it can be said that there are all kinds of flavors, "complete flavors", and a whole row of yards are placed smoothly.
All kinds of strange ghost drawings, strange magic weapons. Pasted on the wall and rested on the display shelf, dense and neat and orderly.
Recalcitrant objects and curtains made of bones abound, and it is impossible to distinguish between human and animal bones.
The medium of sunlight is not the window, but the refraction of a beam of light through the hole in the wall by several mirrors, making the room not as dark as night. However, on the desktop wall, on the lid of the winemaker, the most red satin and blue satin appeared, and everything reflected was strange and terrifying.
I was sweating from my hands holding Guanyin, and I really wanted to put it down and leave, but I couldn't stay for a moment.
Gong'e Yunlu, who came with me, pulled my sleeve: "Let's go out, it's the New Year!" This house is like the world. ”
