Chapter 774: Canonization Ceremony
Xiao Ning was slightly unhappy, but he didn't say anything, when it was time for His Majesty to give him a position, Baili Yunzheng finally fell on Xiao Ning's pretty face.
He picked up the booklet in his hand and looked at it carefully, and when he saw that Xiao Ning was the daughter of the right minister, he smiled lightly, and then said, "I will give you the position of concubine." ”
Xiao Ning immediately leaked a smug smile on his face, and then blessed his body slightly, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”
Halfway through the canonization ceremony, Baili Yunzheng was a little tired, so he summoned everyone to rest for a while, Fang Die heard that the daughter of the right minister was canonized as a concubine, and the concubine was only one step lower than the queen's position, and she was a little unhappy, her father was the left minister, and Xiao Ning should have the same family status, why did she become a concubine and she was nothing.
Fang Die was a little unwilling, and when she saw the emperor and the queen standing by the lotus pond behind the palace to breathe the wind and speak, she had a plan in her heart.
Fang Die's delicate and small face flashed a touch of calculation, wanting to fight with her Fang Die, Xiao Ning may be too tender.
Thinking of this, Fang Die deliberately went for a walk in the corridor by the lotus pond in the apse, wearing the high flowerpot bottom shoes, she deliberately slowed down her pace to make herself look more like a lady.
"The scenery of the courtyard here is very chic." Li Chuxia looked at the lotus pond in this garden with praise, and it was a good time to bloom.
Baili Yunzheng nodded, then smiled, and said to Li Chuxia: "Otherwise, I will give you this courtyard later, since you like it." ”
"No, I haven't lived in the palace yet, and I've moved here again, I'm afraid that the civil and military officials will gossip again if they find out." Li Chuxia smiled lightly, looking generous, and Baili Yunzheng also nodded.
The two of them walked idly on the side, not noticing a figure approaching closer.
Fang Die saw that the emperor's appearance was like a peerless beautiful man, even if she took a breath, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to spit it out, she didn't expect that the emperor would be heroic and extraordinary from a distance, and she couldn't find any fault when she looked closely.
I heard that the emperor and the queen were talking with words like "you and me", and even I didn't have to pretend to be myself. A sense of jealousy came up again in his heart, and he suddenly loved and hated this Baili Yunzheng, what he loved was that he was outstanding in appearance and independent in his immortality, and he hated him because he was an emperor who had to pamper the Six Palaces.
Fang Die's face was flushed when he thought of this, if he didn't need so many women, as long as he had a couple for the rest of his life, then if she was given it, she would be willing to die.
Thinking like this, thinking about her steps, she unconsciously approached Baili Yunzheng, and before the two of them could react to who she was, Fang Die suddenly threw herself forward and fell in front of Baili Yunzheng.
Fang Die tried all kinds of tricks to make herself look soft and fell in front of this Baili Yunzheng, but Baili Yunzheng didn't look at it, just thought it was a little palace maid who came out of nowhere, so she turned her eyes and continued to enjoy the scenery of the lotus pond.
Fang Die lay on the ground for a few seconds, only then did she realize that the two people in front of her had no reaction, especially the emperor, it stands to reason that if he was a person who was a little better and had a heart of pity and cherishing jade, he would not just look at it, but unfortunately she waited for a long time, and she didn't hear a word come out of the emperor's mouth.
Li Chuxia couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked up and pulled Fang Die up from the ground.
"Are you alright? Which show girl are you? Li Chuxia asked, with a gentle look on his face.
Baili Yunzheng heard Li Chuxia's words, and turned his head to look at the show girl again, it turned out to be a girl with a complexion comparable to Xiao Ning, a pair of smoky eyebrows, and those long willow-like eyes that looked very distressing.
Fang Die had a sad expression, and then said, "The little girl is the daughter of the left minister, Fang Die." ”
Baili Yunzheng smiled lightly but didn't speak, Li Chuxia was a little tempted by this girl, seeing that her bright eyes and bright teeth were also a beautiful look, thinking that she actually fell in front of Baili Yunzheng impartially, although the movements were soft, but Baili Yunzheng didn't have any reaction, so his heart softened a little and smiled lightly at her.
"Okay, if it's okay, go back to the hall quickly, and the concubine ceremony will continue soon." Li Chuxia said softly, and she couldn't see the queen's frame at all.
Fang Die smiled and nodded, then thanked the queen mother in a panic and walked away quickly.
The emperor took the queen back to the main hall, and the ceremony continued.
The eunuch continued to shout the names of the show girls, and the emperor and queen came forward to ask questions or let them perform their talents, and then Baili Yunzheng gave these show girls names.
Finally, after two more hours, it can be regarded as having all the show girls who entered the palace this year and canonizing them.
After that, Tang Lan, the daughter of the Taishi, and one or two daughters of important ministers were given concubines. But when she arrived at Fang Die, Baili Yunzheng took a few more glances at her, but she only canonized the concubine, and the rest were all nobles and promises.
Fang Die was canonized as a concubine by the emperor, saying that she was dignified and knowledgeable. Fang Die really didn't know if the emperor was joking with herself or something, she faked a fall in front of him, and he actually said that she was dignified.
So I thought about it again, and estimated that the emperor meant to warn her and hope that she would become a dignified person.
Fang Die thought of this, and a touch of happiness leaked from her face.
In the following days, although the palace was canonized as the emperor, and the nobles who were concubines also lived in the palace, the emperor still favored Li Chuxia, and the brands of other palace concubines were not turned over once.
This incident made Fang Die very unhappy, she felt that the emperor should have seen how refined and dignified she was that day, and he should also understand his talents, but why was this Baili Yunzheng so unmoved?
Fang Die stayed in this palace and became more and more anxious day by day, and it was not good for her to go directly to the palace of other concubines to see if this Baili Yunzheng had been there, it was estimated that if she asked others, they would treat her as a problematic person.
Thinking like this, Fang Die finally thought of one person back and forth, that is, the queen's mother, no matter what, she also had a relationship with the queen at that time, and she shouldn't have much objection to meeting her by herself.
Thinking like this, Fang Die set off to go to the queen's palace to greet the queen.
"Yun Shu, bring the most valuable Pu'er tea I brought from the house, I want to go to meet the queen mother."
Fang Die gave an order, and the maid immediately went down to get something.
After a while, this Yun Shu came with something.
Fang Die took Yun Shu and went to the palace where the queen mother lived. But waiting for the little palace maid who went in to report went in and came out again, the palace maid said to her: "Okay, you can go in, the queen is waiting in the palace." ”
Fang Die's face was extremely happy, and immediately gave Yun Shu a look on the side, and Yun Shu immediately took out a certain amount of broken silver from his sleeve cage and handed it to the little palace maid who reported the incident, and the palace maid took the silver from Concubine Duan to give her some money with a look of sincere fear.
When she came to the queen's palace, Concubine Duan smiled gently, and she looked very gentle and generous, and came to the hall near to give Li Chuxia Yingying a bow, and said: "Concubine Duan has seen the queen's mother, and the queen's mother is a thousand years old. ”
Li Chuxia was very happy when she saw Concubine Duan's kind appearance, she didn't think about what she fell in front of Baili Yunzheng that day, she just felt that she looked very dignified and generous, gentle and polite, and even Baili Yunzheng listened to Li Chuxia's evaluation so she was given the name of Concubine Duan.
"Concubine Duan, get up, you don't have to be polite to this palace in the future." Li Chuxia said.
"Queen Mother, this is the best Pu'er tea that Yunnan paid tribute to last year, I thought that there may not be it in the palace, so I took some to honor you." Concubine Duan said knowingly.
Li Chuxia did not shirk her intimacy, but felt that she was more like her sister, very gentle and lovely.
Li Chuxia nodded, and immediately a little palace maid presented the Pu'er tea that Fang Die had paid tribute to.
Li Chuxia took a sip of the tea and thought it was very delicious, so he invited Concubine Duan to sit down and stay for lunch together.
Li Chuxia has always seen many palace maids and new show girls, and they are very extravagant in eating and cooking, but Li Chuxia doesn't like that, Li Chuxia himself leaked a hand to Fang Die in the small kitchen in his palace.
Fang Die is very strange and the queen likes to cook by herself, but she will not avoid outside and refuse to enter because the kitchen is not clean and smokey, on the contrary, she personally enters the kitchen to help Li Chuxia clean up the dishes.
"Mother, why do you cook by yourself? There are so many imperial chefs in the palace, wouldn't it be better for you to eat what they have made directly? Concubine Duan looked graceful, picked up her sleeves, and slowly chose vegetables for Li Chuxia on the side.
And Li Chuxia was very atmospheric, rolled up his sleeves and wore a bib-style apron, standing in front of the stove to show his skills.
"Oh, I ate what they made a few days ago, and I don't feel like it's to my stomach, but I still eat it with my own craftsmanship." Li Chuxia said with a light smile. She slowly accepted the existence of Concubine Duan in her heart, as if she was a good friend, so no matter what she asked, she answered them one by one.
"Oh!" Concubine Duan smiled, and the dimples on her face were very cute.
The two made a table of dishes, and then slowly began to eat, Li Chuxia told Concubine Duan that she used to be a cook, and Concubine Duan was very surprised that the queen mother had been a cook, which was really unexpected.
Concubine Duan ate a few bites of the dishes made by the queen, and then a touch of surprise immediately appeared on her face, she didn't expect the queen's cooking skills to be so good.
couldn't help but admire: "Queen Mother, Fang Die is really lucky to be able to eat such delicious food you made." ”
Li Chuxia smiled and replied, "It's okay, since you love to eat, it's okay to eat more." ”
