Chapter 232: The Show Girl Enters the Palace
"Princess Ling?" Duanmu Qing was stunned in her heart, she didn't know anything about Dongli royal family, and Ji Chenfeng didn't say anything about the past between him and the royal family.
And Ji Ruyan also said that she has never been to Changjing since she was a child.
"The princess said that Miss may not remember, she once met Miss on the way from Xiqi, and Miss was only three years old at the time!"
Aunt Yunbi was not unusual, still with a subtle and polite smile.
Duanmu Qing nodded and said with a smile: "It's been too long, I really can't remember." ”
"In the future, Miss will be in Changjing, and we will see each other for a long time." After saying a few more words, Aunt Yunbi retreated.
Seeing that she was far away, Duanmu Qing instructed Mo Lost: "Go and check this Princess Ling, and in addition, see what relationship she had with the Zhenxi Mansion at that time." ”
In the past few days, he has been learning palace etiquette with Aunt Yunbi in the hotel, although basically Duanmu Qing has learned almost everything from the grandmother invited by the Zhenxi Palace.
But he still followed her movements very seriously.
Aunt Yunbi seemed very satisfied with this.
A few more ladies who claimed to have some friendship with the Zhenxi Wangfu came to visit, and Duanmu Qing asked Mo to stop him from going back because he was practicing etiquette.
Aunt Yunbi smiled and said, "Miss, this is right, it's better not to get involved in these relationships at this time." ”
For this woman, in fact, Duanmu Qing is on guard, so she has always behaved very decently, and she can't make any mistakes in the slightest.
Although it is said that it is the aunt who is the head of the palace, it is really hard to say who it is and what kind of purpose it is.
But I didn't think she would say such a sentence at this time.
The affairs of these aristocratic circles are the same in any country.
At this time, Duanmu Qing used Ji Ruyan's identity to draft, and since the emperor opened this mouth, there is actually a high probability of being selected.
These ladies came to make friends at this time, which is actually the root knot of power.
But Duanmu Qing is not Ji Ruyan, and she must consider the problem as Ji Ruyan.
Changjing's situation, she still hasn't figured it out, how to act indiscriminately, in case someone notices her, I'm afraid that it will hurt her own things even more.
Therefore, during this time, in addition to being selected, the more low-key she is, the better.
That night, Aunt Yunbi received two boxes of medicinal herbs from Duanmuqing.
It's not a precious thing, but it's very useful for treating arthritis caused by kneeling.
As early as when she taught Duanmu Qing etiquette, Duanmu Qing found out, even though she hid it well.
"I didn't expect Miss to be a master of Xinglin!" After learning the content of the day, Yunbi smiled and groaned.
"My aunt has a good reputation, but I once studied with the doctor for two days, and it seemed that there was something wrong with my aunt's knee that day, so I sent the medicinal herbs over, and it was like Yan Zaoji."
As soon as she heard this, Yun Bi hurriedly waved her hand, but her face showed a grateful look: "Where is it, Miss doesn't know, the slave's knee injury fell in the early years, and now it can't be cured."
But in front of people, she would never dare to lose her manners, and the young lady can see it at a glance, which shows that her medical skills are amazing. ”
Duanmuqing was not very pushy about this, and said with a rhetorical smile: "Although arthritis is not fatal, but it is very abrasive, if my aunt can trust Ruyan, why don't you come here these nights and let Ruyan try acupuncture for my aunt?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Yunbi, who had always been self-contained, also showed hope in his eyes, which showed that he was tortured by this illness.
It's just that he doesn't let go, as if he's thinking about something.
"If my aunt has concerns, it doesn't matter, Ruyan won't bother my aunt."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and let Cai Wei help him into the house.
"Miss's medical skills are so good, what's not to worry about," Yunbi finally smiled, "Then, the slave will have to bother Miss." ”
"Auntie is polite."
In the evening, Duanmu Qing really took out the medicine box he was carrying.
As soon as she saw her focused look, Yunbi let go of half of her heart.
This acupuncture is not difficult, but it is a little complicated and the process is a little long.
"Which master does my aunt serve in the palace?"
While rubbing the acupuncture points for her, Duanmu Qing asked as if he were unintentional.
Yunbi's eyes were sharp, and then she relaxed again, and slowly closed her eyes when she pushed and pressed: "The slave maid was originally serving the Empress Dowager, but since the crown prince died of illness, the Empress Dowager died of grief, and the slave maid has been guarding the Cining Palace. ”
"The Prince?"
Obviously, she is not talking about Han Lingyu, the son born to the current queen, it seems that it should be......
"He is the elder brother of His Majesty today, and his Majesty's mother. He died of illness in the early years. ”
Sure enough, it turned out to be Han Yuan's brother.
died of illness, and the Queen Mother died of grief, this feeling is not deep!
But does the royal family really have such a deep affection? Not to mention that she has another wonderful son - the current emperor.
Is there anything else in this?
"It has been twenty years since the Queen Mother passed away, and now there are fewer old people in the palace, and there are few who remember, Your Majesty also watched the slaves and maids miserable in Cining Palace all the year round, so they let the slaves and maids come out to teach the young lady to guide the aunt, and it can be regarded as letting the slaves and maids go out of the palace to breathe, and it has been twenty years in a flash."
Duanmuqing sighed in his heart, there was something in his words.
She just asked casually where she was on duty, which was originally a very common thing.
Although I had the intention of inquiring, I didn't really want to explore her past.
But she kept the topic on the Queen Mother.
It's just that twenty years have passed, and there are few old people in the palace, isn't it strange?
There was a lot of going around in his heart, but his face was silent, and Duanmu Qing still applied the needle as usual: "Aunt is blessed to make Your Majesty remember." ”
These words made Yunbi smile bitterly: "Your Majesty misses the old love, but some things are not okay with love, and everyone in this world will have some unsatisfactory things." ”
There is no reason to say this, Duanmu Qing couldn't solve it for a while.
"Now there are a lot of masters in the palace, and there are probably not many show girls selected in this draft!"
Duanmu Qing didn't seem to notice her words at all, and said to herself.
"There are not many choices, but those who should be elected to the palace still have to be elected to the palace."
"Oh?" Duanmu Qing looked at Yunbi curiously, "Are there any other things that should be chosen and those that should not be chosen?" ”
Nodding, Yunbi said: "We have a lot of opposite-sex kings in the east, like Miss, you are a young lady from the Zhenxi Palace, for so many years, these opposite-sex kings have guarded various places for Your Majesty, so naturally they want to deepen the contact."
For example, along with Miss are Miss Guo and Miss Jia. ”
It is said that there are many kings of the opposite sex, and there are many women who naturally come, but Yunbi just said that these two naturally have a reason in them.
"I don't know either of these two things my aunt said! Can my aunt know? ”
"Miss Guo's father, Guo Donglin, is the prince of Huainan, and Miss Jia's grandfather, Jia Zhengyu, is the prince of Hejian, both of whom are the strongest among the kings of the opposite sex."
Duanmu Qing smiled and said, "It's a shame to say that Ruyan hasn't been going out at home all the time, so she doesn't know much about it!" If it weren't for my aunt mentioning it, I really wouldn't know. ”
Hearing this, Aunt Yunbi suddenly opened her eyes, and looked straight at Duanmu Qing with two eyes, which startled her.
But in a blink of an eye, she was as calm as she had been at the beginning.
"Miss, be careful! Guo Jia's two families have always been good friends. And...... In the early years, there were also some festivals between the king of Zhenxi and the two princes. ”
It turned out to be an old enemy, no wonder Yunbi would remind him like this!
Pulling out the last needle, Duanmu Qing smiled, "How does my aunt feel?" Ruyan's skills are shallow, and he is ashamed to get rid of the disease. ”
Yunbi was not polite, moved her knees, and suddenly her eyes were full of joy: "Miss is really a pair of wonderful hands, the slave maid is so sick, it is really so good." ”
This gratitude is sincere, Duanmu Qing said with a smile: "There are still some days left and right, Ruyan has done acupuncture for her aunt late, and if you want to stay until you enter the palace, it should be about the same." ”
Duanmuqing can barely be regarded as half a doctor, and he still knows a thing or two about how painful Yunbi's joint problem is.
In this way, she undoubtedly owes a favor, what is too much, but not a favor.
As the saying goes, the money is easy to repay, but the favor is difficult to repay.
Maybe it will be useful in the future.
Besides, in this inexplicable eastward separation, it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy.
After more than ten days like this, it was finally the day when the show girl entered the palace.
Those who can enter the palace at this time have actually been selected through layers of selection.
And an identity like Ji Ruyan is not so troublesome at all.
Only wait until the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the last day, and the final choice of the emperor and queen will be finalized.
Presiding over this draft is Xiao Guifei, the biological mother of Han Lingxiang, the fourth prince who she once met in Duanmuqing, Xiqi.
Fortunately, this is a harem matter after all, even if Han Lingxiang has seen Duanmu Qing, it doesn't matter, he won't participate.
But just in case, Duanmu Qing was still a little more relaxed.
Although it looks seven or eight points similar to the original, it doesn't look like the same person anymore.
"This is Sister Ruyan! Sure enough, the country is beautiful and fragrant, and it is glamorous! A woman's slightly pretentious voice sounded when Duanmu Qing stepped into the arranged courtyard.
As soon as he turned his face, he saw a girl in a purple palace dress looking at him with a disdainful smile on her face.
Jia Wenrou is the granddaughter of the King of Hejian mentioned by Yunbi.
It looks like she is sixteen or seventeen years old, she is indeed older than Duanmu Youth, and her appearance is excellent, but there is a sharp taste between her eyebrows and eyes, which is a little different from her name after all.
My sister laughed. Duanmu Qing replied lightly and went to his room.
This is a partial courtyard of Huachun Palace, with a total of three rooms, and she and Guo Jia were arranged.
If it is said that it is unintentional, I am afraid that no one will believe it.
But if it comes, it will be safe, and the soldiers will block it.
It's just that some people just can't hold their breath.
