I don't know when Zai Yan left, his arm spread to the right side of the bed, and there was still a trace of heat in the empty splendid duck feather Ruyi Pisces soft pillow, only five watches, I was dragged up by force, with nine points of sleep, and I didn't even want to open my eyes, but I was served to bathe and change clothes, and dress up. This is the first official meeting with the harem concubine after entering the palace, and it is extremely grand. The palace people of Jingren Palace all seemed to have not slept all night, whether it was Bai Ge, Ying'er, or Que'er, they all looked a little nervous and cramped, and they were extra careful and thoughtful.

Ying'er and Que'er carefully helped me put on rouge gouache, while Bai Ge held a box of jewelry on the side and asked: "The first time I met the harem, although the little lord did not mean to overwhelm the crowd, but he also had to dress up a little more energetically, so as not to be rude." How does the little master want to dress up? ”

I sighed and said sleepily, "It's good to be simple, don't let the queen mother catch the handle." ”

Bai Ge's face was a little ugly, and he hesitated: "Slave and maid to tell the truth, even if the little master is plainly clothed, the queen mother is out of reach, and if it is out of reach, the queen mother will definitely be unhappy in her heart." But the official audience of the harem can't be too rude and undressed. ”

I saw that Ying'er had been staring at me in the mirror, with a look of desire to speak, and couldn't help asking, "Ying'er, what do you want to say?" ”

Ying'er helped me brush the broken hair on my temples to the back of my head, and whispered: "Our little lord is definitely beautiful in the harem, even if he doesn't dress up how enchanting and grand, he can also be glamorous and beautiful, how can they be better than the queen mother, it is natural for the emperor to like our little master, who would not like beautiful things?" She pursed her lips, "But now, in order to accommodate the queen's mother, she can't even dress up well, and the little lord is really wronged." ”

Que'er said in a low voice: "Yes, Rao is like this, the queen mother is always jealous of the little master, and she targets the little master everywhere." The little lord endures everywhere, but the queen has to make inches. Slaves and maids are also worthless for the little master. Our little lord is born beautiful, so he is worthy of these gem hairpin rings rewarded by the emperor, but now he can't use it, the queen's mother's appearance, no matter what is used, is simply a tyrannical thing, clothes are not lined with people, hairpins are not lined with faces. "There is a lot of sarcasm between the words.

I silently glanced back at Ying'er and Que'er, and they immediately lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak again. But Ying'er and Magpie are right. And, since it's a sin to dress up as much as not to dress up, why don't I dress up to shine brightly?

I thought that modern times look at faces, but I didn't expect ancient times to look at faces like this.

Speaking of which, the more time goes by, the more similar his facial features look like me, and gradually, he is no longer limited to a pair of eyes. At first, I was still a little shocked and scared by this, but seeing the changes day by day, I felt that since I couldn't stop it, I could only slowly accept this fact. Sometimes I sat in front of the mirror and looked at this face, and more than once I had the illusion of being in a trance, thinking that it was me who had come here, and not that I had taken an unrelated ancient body.

In modern times, my appearance is probably considered to be upper-class, but when I get here, I have to sigh secretly, sure enough, close relatives are married, and the quality of the children born is generally not high!

I said lightly, "Just comb your hair in a normal bun." Bai Ge brought the jewelry up, I picked a pair of silver gilt inlaid agate hairpins, the color is translucent, lining the skin is shining, and the tail of the bun is pinned with a little emerald silver hairpin, which is made of the softest pinch of feathers under the wings of the kingfisher, and the two sides are decorated with pearl jadeite, wearing it looks more and more delicate and gorgeous, elegant and noble. The palace dress with a pale pink "butterfly perched on flowers" pattern is draped in a layer of Xialuo tulle on the outside, and every gesture attracts the gauze clothes like sparkling ripples and swaying color, which gives people a sense of elegance and luxury.

I was dressed properly, Ying'er and Que'er were almost stunned, and after a while, I praised from the bottom of my heart: "The little master is really good-looking, as if a fairy has descended from earth." ”

The palace sedan chair has been waiting at the gate of Jingren Palace, although it has not yet reached the height of summer, but it is not easy to stand for two or three hours under such a big day, thinking that the underwear of these little eunuchs should be soaked with sweat, hard work, I can't bear it, so I asked Bai Ge to take out a few taels of silver to reward them. Then, I got into the sedan chair carefully, and Bai Ge and Gao Wanzhi followed behind the sedan chair. The little eunuchs may have taken the reward, and they served very thoughtfully on the road, and the sedan chair was lifted very smoothly, without any stumbling. After a while, a sharp voice outside the sedan chair shouted: "Ningshou Palace has arrived, please get off the sedan chair." ”

Gao Wanzhi lifted the curtain, Bai Ge stepped forward to hold my hand, and entered the Imperial Palace. The Huangji Hall is located in the center of Ningshou Palace, sits in the north and faces south, faces nine rooms, enters five rooms deep, takes the system of "Emperor Zun Ninety-Five". Yellow glazed tiles heavy eaves on the top of the palace, the front eaves out of the corridor, under the fang gold carving dragon finch replace. In the hall, four drain powder paste gold dragon pillars, top octagonal gold dragon caisson well, set up a throne. In the hall, the left side of the copper kettle drip leaks, and the right side of the large self-striking bell, the production is exquisite. The left and right sides of the Emperor's Palace Dan Majesty are separated from sundials and Jialiang, which is an important furnishing that reflects the imperial power. There is a six-sided Sumeru seat on both sides of the royal road respectively, and the hexagonal pavilion of the eaves is placed on the seat, and the pavilion body is engraved with three seal body longevity words on each side. There is a cast iron gall in the center of the stone pedestal, and on the 23rd to the 15th day of the first lunar month every year, the lamp pole is erected in it, which is an example of a multi-purpose pedestal in ancient times, and only its pedestal survives today. In addition, the palace is equipped with a pair of copper turtles and copper cranes, and two pairs of Ding furnaces, which are very magnificent.

Emperor Tongzhi's Dunyi Imperial Concubines, Xun Concubines, and Concubine Jin also arrived, saluted each other, and sat down according to their status. It was probably after a cup of tea, Ziyu hurriedly walked in, saluted in turn, and approached to see me dressed like this, first stunned, I patted her hand, and then smiled at her. Soon, she returned to her usual smile, nodded to me, and took her seat.

A steady stream of low-density footsteps gradually approached, the hairpin ring jingled, the fat fragrance was faint, and Cixi was surrounded by a group of palace maids and sat on the throne. Longyu cautiously supported Cixi by the side, looking extremely afraid of losing her proportion, and she didn't see the majesty of the queen at all. The people in the harem knelt down to say goodbye, and said in unison: "Lafayette Jin'an, the queen's mother Wan'an." ”

Longyu wears a golden yellow five-immortal flower skirt, embroidered with five Zhai Lingyun patterns, woven with dark gold threads, embellished on each Zhai phoenix feather is a small and round rose spar and tiger's eye stone, broken beads tassels such as starlight, bright like flowing clouds, revealing the royal nobility of fascination. Cixi's head is tied to an emerald blue gold hoop bun, wearing a vermilion ruby hairpin ring and a few glazed peony flowers, three pincers on the earlobe of the lilac night pearl earrings, a large peony red silk silk Luo Shu brocade, the phoenix wearing peony embroidered with colorful gold thread is vivid, the cuffs are embroidered with light red and emerald blue peonies, the silver thread outlines a few auspicious clouds, the hem is densely packed with a row of blue sea water clouds, the chest is decorated with a blood-colored jade pearl, the phoenix bun is dewed, the skin is delicate and soft as a warm jade, and the sideburns are gentle and gentle to add a bit of attractive style.
