Chapter 450: Xu Guifei
Early the next morning, the few new companions who entered the palace after breakfast not only asked the queen mother to say goodbye, but also went to see Xu Guifei again, after all, they didn't see it yesterday, and they couldn't be lacking in etiquette.
Xu Guifei lived in Tianxi Palace, second only to Fengyi Palace, where the queen lived.
Xu Guifei is only thirty years old this year, which is the most charming age for women.
Today, I am wearing a dress with a blue fragrance cloud yarn, a heart neckline, hooked cloud sleeves, revealing a three-inch-long section of Hao wrist wearing seven or eight silk gold bracelets, each of which is only the thickness of a child bracelet.
Such bracelets may look thin if worn alone, but with seven or eight on each arm, they look very chic.
This kind of Dai Fa has never been seen elsewhere, and they can't help but secretly think that this Xu Guifei really knows how to dress up, and the reason why she is favored can be seen from this.
Xu Guifei is graceful and luxurious in front of everyone, very dignified, and can't see how to be arrogant, which seems to be different from the rumors. But because it is only the first side, the so-called seeing people's hearts over time always takes more time to recognize it more clearly.
Xu Guifei gave gifts to everyone, and everyone thanked them. It's just a cup of tea, and then I take my leave.
After coming out and returning to their respective residences, Wei Lanqi saw that there was no one in front of her, pursed her lips and smiled and said to Wei Yining: "This Xu Guifei's appearance is indeed worthy of the word beauty, although she is thirty years old, she is more durable than her niece, and her skin is also fine and white, unlike Xu Zhixi, who has to be covered with powder." ”
Xu Zhixi's complexion is slightly dark, although she usually cares very much, and she doesn't need many home remedies, but her complexion is still slightly darker than Wei Lanqi and others, and he usually rubs heavier fat powder.
Wei Yining and Wei Lanqi usually don't use powder, the skin complexion of the two of them is white and delicate, and the eyebrows are green and the lips are red.
Wei Yining didn't say a word, she just regretted that she didn't see Ding Neijian when she went to Tianxi Palace today.
Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can we have a purpose. Wei Yining wants revenge but is not impatient, she must first know the personality of Ding Neijian, and by the way, check what happened back then.
The so-called unjust debtor has the owner, and it is always necessary to sort out the grievances.
"Yining, you said that Concubine Xu Guifei looks so dignified in front of people, I don't know what it is like in front of the emperor?" Wei Lanqi asked a little wickedly.
"Fifth sister, you are too good at joking, how can people like us say these words?" Wei Yining stopped: "Everyone is more and more obedient when they enter the palace, but because you don't have a few sisters, you are even more playful than when you were at home." ”
"What's this? It's just because I don't have anything to say about you that I tell you, the more things people dare not say in front of them, the more powerful the discussion behind the scenes. Wei Lanqi said in a solemn voice: "Did you say? ”
"The fifth sister is so smart, what she said is naturally right." Wei Yining smiled: "It has been like this since ancient times. ”
Not to mention what the two of them said, Sun Mingming and Bai Wen also chatted while walking.
Sun Mingming's tone had irrepressible envy: "I have long heard that Xu Guifei is a beauty, and when I saw it today, she really deserved her reputation." Besides, her all-round style is really luxurious and charming, if it weren't for the fear of people saying that she didn't follow the rules, I really couldn't bear to take my eyes off her. As a woman, living like Xu Guifei will be in vain. ”
When she was in Xu Guifei's palace just now, Sun Mingming always couldn't help but fantasize that she could become the emperor's favorite concubine like Xu Guifei, and she could borrow from each other's family and become a family that the government and the opposition looked at.
That's right, Sun Mingming likes "sideways" more than "eye-catching".
Because their Sun family is often looked down upon by the Qinggui family, she thinks that one day she will gain power, and she will definitely make those people afraid and respectful.
I remember that before she entered the palace, her father specially called her over, holding the perennial "Lu Lan" in his hand.
The person his father admired the most was Lü Buwei, the minister of the Qin Dynasty, because Lü Buwei was also a merchant, but he eventually became the minister of Qin, and even King Yingzheng of Qin called him "middle father".
"Son, you are going to the palace now, and my father has a few words to tell you." Sun Mingming's father pointed to "Lu Lan" and said: "The world looks down on businessmen, but they don't know that the most shrewd people in the world are also businessmen." Thinking that at the beginning, when Lü Buwei wanted to get acquainted with Zichu as a proton, he asked his father: How profitable is farming? His father said ten times.
He asked: What is the profit of trafficking in furs? His father said: It can be up to 100 times.
What about buying and selling jewelry? His father said: A thousand times.
And he asked, "If a prisoner is to be king, is it possible?" His father said: If this is the case, the benefits are innumerable.
Although our family is already an imperial businessman, it can be regarded as the ultimate among merchants. But the imperial businessman is a businessman after all. Only when you really have a blood relationship with the royal family can you get rid of your current identity! ”
Father's words, Sun Mingming naturally understood. When she came to the palace, she had to try her best to get involved with the royal people.
Although everyone says that the queen is the most noble, the mother is the world.
But Sun Mingming felt that Xu Guifei lived more nourishingly than the queen, at least with the emperor's favor, which was the rarest.
Of course, it is not excluded that she knows in her heart that with her background, it is unlikely that she will ascend to the throne of queen.
Throughout the ages, in addition to the fact that the current queen is from a commoner, which queen is not the daughter of the hairpin family?
Therefore, although Sun Mingming only saw Xu Guifei for the first time, she already regarded her as her idol.
Just like her father made Lü Buwei an idol.
Therefore, I have been talking about Xu Guifei all the way.
But Bai Wen has no ambitions, although the Bai family also took a lot of trouble to send her to the palace.
She is a little timid by nature, she doesn't like to be in the limelight, and she doesn't like to be bad with others.
Knowing that Sun Mingming and she are both the companions of Princess Qinghua, the two of them have to be together for several years, and they must get along in harmony.
Therefore, she listened very carefully to what Sun Mingming said, but she was not interested.
She didn't have any clear goals for herself, anyway, she knew that since she had been selected as a companion, she would definitely be assigned by the emperor and empress to the children of which family in the future.
This is enough for her, and there is no other luxury, so she doesn't want to be in the limelight when she enters the palace, she just wants to spend the past few years in peace.
When the time comes, it will be a matter of course, find a good home for yourself, and help your mother's family, that's all.
Sun Mingming naturally could see that Bai Wen was just pandering on the surface, and she couldn't help laughing at her lack of ambition. But I also feel that it is better for myself to do this, so as not to have any competition between the two of them, and to maintain a superficial harmony.
