Journey to Dongshan Chapter 25 Entering the Palace (1)
For several days, until the night before entering the palace, Huo Qiu stayed in her room, and she had always behaved, Shen Ying was actually a little used to it.
So much so that tonight, he didn't come, and she was guessing the reason why Huo Qiu didn't come.
"That's the point of reciprocation!"
Shen Ying patted her face, she couldn't be captured by a little sugar-coated cannonball, even if this person...
Thinking about it carefully, Huo Qiu is indeed a person worthy of trust, not to mention the rich and handsome, the key person's family character is good.
Even if he stayed in her Bibo Garden so many times, he never forced her.
Besides, although she didn't understand the fake pregnancy, she was sure that if Huo Qiu was exposed, there would be no good results, but she still respected her.
After thinking about it, I suddenly felt that I was not worthy of Huo Qiu, Gan!
Thinking about it, I suddenly thought of entering the palace tomorrow, and she was also the first time that the eldest girl went to the sedan chair.
There may not be a chance to sit in a sedan chair in this life, but if you go to the palace once, will you lose or gain?
The more I think about it, the more chaotic my mind becomes, and the more I think about it, the result can be imagined.
Shen Ying, who had insomnia, fell asleep after opening her eyes for a long time, and because she thought too much, her head hurt when she woke up the next day.
"Beauty, get up quickly."
Shen Ying didn't wake up naturally, and shook her maid to make sure she was breastfeeding.
She dared to say that this maid was afraid that she would skip breakfast at every turn and sleep lazily like usual, delaying today's major event, so she called her extremely hard, and she was afraid that she would lie back.
"The beauty still wants to sleep, can you come for another ten minutes?"
Shen Ying, who had a sore head, tried her best to mix it again, but was ruthlessly rejected by the maid.
offending a beauty or offending the people above, which is more serious, and the maid is not stupid, how can she listen to Shen Ying.
In this way, Shen Ying was treated as a mannequin, she didn't have to do anything, she just had to be fiddled with by a few maids.
The only bad thing is that I can't doze off freely, and the Zhu Cui on my head is luxurious, and my head is full of messy insertions.
Shen Ying also understands a little, why in some novels, when it comes to ceremonies such as face saints, the heroine has to do the opposite, and win praise easily.
She said, I want it too!
However, reality hates to slap her, she...
"Beauty, this is a rule handed down from the ancestors, if the saint loses his honor, the slaves and maids will be to blame!"
As soon as she pulled down a small one, Shen Ying swore that it was as small as a little finger, and the little maid knelt down for her and begged for mercy.
"Okay, you plug it back in, I just think it's a little crooked."
Usually she and this group of little maids are respectful to each other, where have you seen such a scene, it scares her~
When the little maid heard Shen Ying say this, she was relieved, for fear that Shen Ying would regret it, and she would even make up a few points faster.
It lasted for more than two hours, not counting the fact that she got up and was wiped around, removing sweat and hair and strangling her stomach, it was actually as long as two hours!
She knew that it would be miserable to wear clothes and makeup, but she didn't expect it to be so miserable, it was completely different from the last time she followed Huo Qiu to read the scholar.
The morning light was faint to the skylight, and Shen Ying felt for the first time that she could also be called a "noblewoman".
"I'm hungry."
"This is a breakfast for the beauty."
An order, which is said to be her eldest maid, gave a strange thing in her hand to the little maid next to her, and retired to fetch her food.
"What's that, show me."
Shen Ying looked at a leaf-shaped box, the contents were slimy, and she curiously dipped her little finger and threw it away.
So the maids around her looked at her like a great enemy, and she knew what she had done again.
Just when she was about to swipe her fingers with two fingers and hastily clean her fingers, the maid knelt down again.
"Beauty, please use this Juan to clean your hands."
It was the maid who washed her face before, and she quickly presented her with a handkerchief, she stretched out her hand, pinched the handkerchief and wiped it casually.
The maids around her relaxed, and she thought about it, probably because she was afraid of messing with her makeup or something.
That's it, harm!
After a while, her eldest maid came back and called her to dinner.
"What's something today? Coming back pretty quickly. ”
It is also Shen Ying's habit to greet each other, otherwise they will feel that they are dummies.
However, the rest of her words were stubbornly back into her stomach, and the big girl didn't have a chance to tell her about the content of breakfast.
Just a plate of red dates, still dry.
"Eat this today?"
It's not a problem that can be solved!
Toss her in the morning and engage in abuse?
"Just send me away with a few dates, it's me who fell out of favor."
"Don't kneel, don't kneel, I'm talking nonsense."
The big girl listened to her complaints and fall out of favor, and immediately knelt down to confess.
"I know, it's the rules, I know, I know everything..."
Woo woo, I don't want to understand meow!!
A small handful of red dates, counting and counting, there were only a few, she ate slowly, and wanted to rest for a while.
But in less than a cup of tea, she felt the deep resentment of the maids.
"Go on."
She didn't taste much when she ate dates, so she simply put the remaining few back, and then enjoyed the "destruction" of the maids' love.
The stomach has gone from being hungry to losing feeling, and she has experienced too much...
———
"Are they all cleaned up?"
Huo Qiu finally rolled up his cuffs, the whitebait in the morning was not very tasteful, he didn't like it very much, so he withdrew faster, so that the waiting time was also long.
"General, the ladies are all women, where is it like you, so fast."
Lan Yi knows how women dress, Miss Ziyuan and General Huo have been good since childhood, but he is the one who waits every time.
Their generals don't have that patience!
"Then you go everywhere and urge it."
Huo Qiu looked at the time, it's not impossible to go now, and it will save some accidents if you arrive earlier, and you should pay attention to the opportunity in everything, how can you waste time on rouge gouache?
Lan Yi went out with a bitter face, and if he urged it to be useful, the pink rouge building in the capital would not make a lot of money, and several branches had been opened.
Sure enough, his two side wives and a beauty ran to three places, and none of them were cleaned up, and they all said that it would be fast, and from his experience, they were just talking...
"Not good yet?"
Seeing that Lan Yi was not very interested in coming back, Huo Qiu frowned unhappily.
"It's... The ladies are stepping up. ”
The first to come to the front hall was Hu Ji, and the last to arrive was Shen Ying.
Shen Ying saw that the two Yuji orchids were not as expensive as her dress, and she was very puzzled and had to remove a few hair accessories on the spot.
"Beauty, that's not what I said." The big maid hurriedly stopped her, and when she heard the movement, even Yuji and Hu Ji also got involved.
"If you dare to do the same, don't say it's from my General's Mansion, you think about which face you have lost!" The first to bear the brunt was Hu Ji, who pointed at Shen Ying like a cannon and shouted.
However, Huo Qiu was not far from them, so he restrained a little.
"Sister, you have to take care of your face."
Shen Ying completely dispelled the idea of dying.
"This is a fixed gift, although the objects of the side lady are light but valuable, beauty... Thou art also precious, and thou art gilt silver. ”
Shen Ying understood that if someone else has a high status, she can wear more valuable things, but her identity is not enough, so she can only wear gold.
Why is it still a little cheesy?
I think she was a person who couldn't wait to buy a full set of gold crowns, but now that the gold plug is on it, she actually thinks it's vulgar, it's not good.
"If it's done, come here, don't make any mistakes."
Huo Qiu stayed alone in a carriage, and Shen Ying thought that he would go to the little lady Yuji, or get into her carriage shamelessly.
A little disappointed, plus one...
I heard that the palace is far away from the general's palace, because it covers a large area, so the general was built in a remote area, and the palace has to be far away from the minister's mansion.
"I said that I would drink tea and enjoy the flowers, and when I got to the palace, why should I go to the middle of the day and eat lunch directly."
It turned out that Shen Ying guessed correctly.
When they arrived at the Middle Palace (after entering the palace, a small carriage pulled in), it was almost twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
Even the road in the palace is different, much smoother than outside, so that Shen Ying's sore waist and legs can be relieved a little.
"Your Excellency, please get out of the carriage."
Her eldest maid was arranged to leave, and a palace maid was replaced to serve her.
came out of the palace, but it was different, that temperament, cold, she was a little stunned.
But the hair ornament on the head is very heavy, if you shrink your head, it will fall off, and it will crush your head.
So she felt like she was doing a lot of that.
Dressed in an orange pink coat, the dark blue waist seal tightly protected his waist, and the tender green jade ring hanging on it still showed a hint of naughtiness in solemnity.
After crossing a few thresholds, she came to a palace paved with marble, and she couldn't look around, so she kept moving.
The head is upright, and the eyes are looking down.
Two familiar figures appeared in front of her, Jade Ji and Hu Ji, both in pink robes, who arrived before her and had already finished their salutes.
The palace maid took her with her to join the two of them, and estimated that it would be her turn next.
"Here is the pregnant Shen beauty?"
Hearing only a cold voice coming, Shen Ying had never heard such a young but majestic voice, and almost looked up because of curiosity, but fortunately, she was pressed by gold all the time, remembering that she was entering the palace to participate in the banquet.
"Yes, concubine Shen Ying, I've seen..."
"This is Liji Niangniang, beauty, hurry up."
"Liki... Empress. ”
Shen Ying suppressed the doubts in her heart.
The one who told her it was Riki, the one she had seen a long time ago? She also gave the lady a cat.
"Hongu is also Kurihime's mother."
It seems that Li Ji saw that Shen Ying was puzzled and opened her mouth to explain.
"Yes, the concubine Shen Ying has seen Li Ji Niangniang."
It doesn't matter who she is, maybe the emperor likes to do this, and he likes the word Li very much, so he messes around.
The harem is all his, and it is not impossible to take the same title.
"Get up."
It was the previous Liki who told her to get up, and she obediently stood up and retreated behind Jade and Orchid.
The day after tomorrow, several officials' wives also saluted in turn, because Huo Qiu was in a high position, and they were the first to see the salute.
Fortunately, he understood that she was pregnant, and also appeased the ministers, and after letting them stand for a while, he gave them a seat.
"Is the food still to your taste?"
