Chapter Twenty-Four: The Life of Rice Worms
Emperor Wu Yuan's harem is full of only four beauties, Gu Banqin entered the palace in advance, although he is now sealed, a six-grade Baolin, but he still has to be in the palace, after the training rules of the old grandmothers, he has not even seen the emperor's face for the time being, let alone climbed into the dragon bed to sleep.
So for a while, the people in the palace are adapting to the new environment, and there are no bullshit things happening for the time being.
After Gu Banqin learned the rules from the old grandmother every day, she wandered around the palace and became familiar with the huge palace backyard.
Gu Banqin's fourth half-sister, Gu Nianshu, the current lady concubine lives in the Lanyue Palace, Gu Banqin learned from the old grandmother who studied that the Lanyue Palace was the palace where the most favored Emperor He Guifei lived in the life of a certain emperor of the Northern Zhao family during the former Northern Kingdom.
This Emperor He Guifei won the emperor's favor, so the moon hall is paved with white jade, embedded with gold beads, chiseled into the lotus, the flowers become the appearance of a five-stemmed lotus, the petals are fresh and exquisite, even the stamens are delicate and recognizable, the concubines who live in the palace do not feel cold if they step barefoot, only feel a piece of warmth, it was originally chiseled with Lantian warm jade, and walk step by step to give birth to lotus.
The luxury of the decoration of the Lanyue Hall can be seen to be different, it can be said that it is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is an excellent place to live.
After hearing this, Gu Banqin wanted to take a look at this Lanyue Palace, which is not only luxurious as the Heavenly Immortal Palace, and try the blue jade floor heating that is similar to modern times, but she was originally unfamiliar with Gu Nianshu in the mansion, and the two were sisters in blood at any time, but they didn't speak more than ten sentences.
Although the two of them are both palace concubines now, they are both working for the emperor, but the difference in status is too great, if there is no summons from Gu Nianshu, they will rush over to set up a close, and they will only make people laugh.
So Gu Banqin just thought about it.
Gu Banqin was placed in the Muddy Hall not far from the Lanyue Palace.
Compared with the size of the Lanyue Palace, the size of the Muddy Hall is probably more than the size of a basketball court, and it is far less than the luxurious configuration of the Lanyue Palace, but although the sparrows are small, they have all kinds of organs.
The basic configuration of the hall is much more high-end than the Cuiwei Courtyard where Gu Banqin lives in the Gu family, this comparison, in fact, Gu Banqin is promoted.
The main entrance of the hall is facing a large courtyard, and at a cursory glance, it feels a bit desolate and empty, Gu Banqin thinks that if there is a chance in the future, he must take care of it, plant some flowers and trees or something, and embellish it, and it is almost the same if he wants to come.
There is only one main hall in the muddy hall, and there are seven or eight halls scattered on both sides of the main hall, and the facilities in the room are all arranged in the same color of water blue, which looks monotonous and cold.
It is not difficult to guess that this is temporarily cleaned up, but Gu Banqin doesn't mind, she has a natural affection for aqua blue, such an environment, if Aunt Duan can be taken over to live, Aunt Duan will definitely be happy.
There are a total of six palace people serving in the muddy hall, two palace maids, one is called Liu Wu, the other is called Cai Qing, two little eunuchs Jia Jinlu and Zhang Yuzhu, and two rough envoys working in the kitchen.
Liu Wu and Cai Qing are both seventeen-year-old beautiful girls, both thin, small, and their faces and figures are above ordinary people.
As the name suggests, the catkins are a little thinner, maybe a little too thin, the thin chin is sharp and scary, and when he speaks, he always lowers his eyebrows and eyes, and he doesn't dare to look at people, and his voice is small, and he looks like a timid girl.
Cai Qing is a little taller, her figure looks stronger, she always has a straight face, she doesn't smile, and when she talks to Gu Banqin, she holds her chest and back, and her eyes can't take her eyes off, as if she is being reviewed at any time.
The two girls were newcomers who had just entered the palace not long ago, only a month earlier than Gu Banqin entered the palace, and as soon as they finished their pre-job training, they were sent by the Personnel Department to take up their posts in the palace.
From now on, the two of them will be responsible for Gu Banqin's daily life in the Muddy Palace, and they can be regarded as personal palace maids who serve closely.
If other people enter the palace and are sent to serve two newcomers who have just taken up their posts, they will definitely feel that they have been neglected by the palace, but Gu Banqin didn't think so, the two palace maids saw that she was respectful, and they all gave her a slight smile and looked pleased.
Everyone came out to beg for a living, and Gu Banqin was not so particular.
When she first arrived in the palace, Gu Banqin used the first two days to familiarize herself with the various environments in the palace, and she found that the imperial dining room was in the southeast of the palace, which was only one or two kilometers away, and she could smell the fragrance of the food floating over there when the wind was downstream......
Gu Banqin found that the timetable of the imperial dining room was quite regular, and he began to serve breakfast to the palaces at three o'clock every day, that is, at five or six o'clock in the morning, Liu Wu or Cai Qing would lead a little eunuch to the imperial dining room to receive breakfast, sometimes porridge noodles, sometimes dim sum, there were many patterns, and the food was never the same, Gu Banqin was simply happy.
In a blink of an eye, it has been more than half a month since he entered the palace, and Gu Banqin has not been summoned by the emperor for a long time, nor has he received the command of the attendant.
The other people in the Muddy Hall were not in a hurry to see it, so she was even less anxious.
I slept until seven or eight o'clock every morning, got up at seven or eight o'clock, had breakfast, and then learned the rules from my grandmother, in fact, she learned almost everything, and after class, she had a lot of free time.
She can go to the nearby Imperial Garden to have a look, stretch her legs to the birds and flowers, and do sports, but she can't go too far, or she can go to the nearby Roushui Lake to see the fish and shrimp, and tease the stupid fat carp raised inside, but she doesn't know if she can eat it......
Gu Banqin knocked on the side from the old grandmothers who had raised her, and set out the size of the range she could currently move, with the muddy hall as the center, the distance of about a thousand meters around it was a relatively safe distance, and no matter how far it was, she couldn't walk around.
Because, naturally, she was afraid that Gu Banqin would go into some places that she shouldn't go, see some things that shouldn't be seen, and meet some people with a bad temper, simply put, she was afraid of colliding with nobles who were higher than her......
When Gu Banqin heard this, she fell down instantly, there were four concubines in the palace, and the other three were higher than her......
However, Gu Banqin is also satisfied, be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years, no one can guarantee that one day it will really be a bright star, she will not rush into the nobles, but the nobles want to come to her for trouble, everything according to the rules, even if something really happens, Gu Banqin can also defend one or two.
So Gu Banqin has been in the palace for more than half a month, no one summoned her, no one paid attention to her, but Gu Banqin did not feel neglected at all, but lived a regular and fulfilling life every day, which was simply the rice worm life she dreamed of.
