Chapter 187: Concubine Pu Enjoys the Snow Banquet

On the second day, the two couples slept very late before getting up, after all, the eldest princess was not there, and the Hou Ye Shen An went to the Fuchang Eldest Princess's Mansion early in the morning to find Chengguo Gongzhang Yong, and this entire princess's mansion is only the most noble for the little couple, so naturally there is no need to be afraid of anything.

The two slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up and having breakfast casually, but someone from the palace announced the will, saying that the queen wanted to invite all the ladies and high-ranking female officials into the palace, and Yingshu had to hurriedly dress up and go out to receive the order. But it was a middle-aged inner eunuch who came, but his face was familiar, but he couldn't remember what the specific name was for a while, thinking that there were too many people in the palace of the queen, so Ying Shu fortunately called him "sir".

"Sir, if you leave some refreshments for the time being, you will not be able to enjoy it, I am afraid that there will be poor hospitality, but I have wronged Mr."

The traitor only waved his hand: "The eldest lady is serious, the lady is kind, and the minister understands it." It's just that the minister still has to go to the homes of several ladies and ladies next to him to announce the decree, but he doesn't dare to delay. As long as the lady packs up, tomorrow will enjoy the snow ceremony, please don't delay the time. ”

"Then the concubine is welcome, Mr. go slowly." Ying Shu looked at the inner prison with a smile, and then turned around and returned to the inner house.

Shen Bin asked with a smile what was going on, Ying Shu said truthfully, but couldn't help complaining: "Why does the queen love these elegant things now?" Appreciating the snow ceremony, I'm afraid it's very cold. Ying Shu shook her head, the temperature has dropped in the early winter in the past few days, and it is said that there will be snow in the past two days, so the queen summoned the ladies to enjoy the snow Although it is elegant, she just feels cold when she wants to come.

"There was no such a grand ceremony a few years ago, why is there today, even a troublesome pregnant woman like me has to be summoned into the palace, I'm afraid it's a big scene."

Shen Bin thought carefully: "I don't know. I haven't heard of it, I think it was just a temporary idea of the queen's mother. ”

"Alas, I'll know when I enter the palace tomorrow." Ying Shu turned her head and instructed Xiangli and said, "Help me take out the golden orange luan wearing the auspicious jacket embroidered with sleeves and knees embroidered on the Ganoderma lucidum weaving gold plate, as well as the sky blue fairy birthday makeup horse face, I will pick one for the crown in a while." ”

Shen Bin listened to Ying Shu's words, but couldn't help asking: "Which robe?" Why haven't I seen you wear it? ”

Ying Shu smiled proudly: "You haven't seen much." This is a dowry dress that my grandmother made for me before I got married, just when I was pregnant. ”

On the second day, Ying Shu had to get up early to dress up, and naturally she would not let go of Shen Bin, so she grabbed Shen Bin and got up together, so that Shen Bin could watch herself dress properly.

Entering the palace has always been a grand event, and dressing up naturally follows the direction of grandeur. Ying Shu sat groggily in front of the dressing table, fiddling with Zhang's mother and Xiangli for nearly an hour, until her scalp hurt from the heavy bun and crown, and she was sober.

Shen Bin sympathized with this: "It's really troublesome to be a woman. ”

Ying Shu cried: "Xianggong really understands me. ”

"I'll send you?" Shen Bin smiled and supported Yingshu, who was weighed down by the flower crown and walked swaying-she had never dressed so ceremoniously since she was pregnant, and now she naturally felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Hmm...... That's not good. Ying Shu began to be cautious, and began to think about whether it was appropriate to do so.

"What's so bad?" Shen Bin helped Ying Shu to sit at the dining table, "If you can't eat on the side, drink a bowl of porridge first, otherwise you won't know what to eat all the way to the palace." ”

Ying Shu nodded, seeing that Shen Bin had been staring at her as if she wanted to beg her parents to take her out of the naughty child, she couldn't help but smile, and even soft-hearted agreed: "Okay, good." You accompany me into the palace, send me to the palace gate and go back. ”

Shen Bin smirked like a child with an unopened mind, and only clapped his hands and said quickly: "That's naturally good!" ”

When he arrived at the gate of the palace to say goodbye to Shen Bin, looking at the back of Shen Bin riding away, Ying Shu also got out of the carriage from the service of the small inner supervisor and changed to a soft sedan chair - the road arrived at the gate of Kunming Palace, where the queen was located. It's just that the Kunming Gate is closed, only Wang Zhen is guarding the palace gate, and when he saw Ying Shu, he smiled and saluted, "Wang Zhong's envoy came early and saw the eldest lady." ”

"Hello sir." The celebrity beside the emperor, Ying Shu, naturally did not have the capital to accept the gift safely, so she reluctantly returned the gift with the body of a pregnant woman, and asked with a smile: "Is Your Majesty here to enjoy the snow?" ”

Wang Zhen denied: "It's not, it's just that when I got up this morning, the queen suddenly felt unwell, so she said that this snow banquet was changed to the Longevity Palace, and it was presided over by Concubine De. The slave and maid stayed here, just to inform the ladies and ladies who came to the banquet that they only abducted the Longevity Palace's Concubine Niangniang. ”

"Oh? The queen mother is not feeling well, I will go to enjoy the snow later......" Ying Shu naturally had doubts in her mind, "How are these concubines good?" ”

Wang Zhen looked at Ying Shu very politely: "This is what Your Majesty and the queen mean, the queen is benevolent, and I don't want to disturb the interest of all the ladies and ladies because of the disobedience of the phoenix body." Wang Zhen bowed down and made a gesture of please, and gestured: "Lady, please." ”

Ying Shu saluted again, and saluted Kunmingmen, so she had to turn around and get on the soft sedan again, but Lijun, who had not seen her for a long time, was also coming in a soft sedan chair, so she stopped and waited for a while.

Wang Zhen's remarks to Lijun were the same, the two thought about it, and asked Wang Zhen the time, and felt that the time was still early, and decided to walk to Concubine Pu's Longevity Palace.

The two walked on the long street, because Lijun hadn't seen Yingshu for a long time, they chattered a lot, and at the same time didn't forget to care: "You're still pregnant, it's okay to walk back and forth like this?" Don't get tired. ”

Ying Shu smiled and said, "Why are you so squeamish?" Besides, isn't the soft sedan following behind us? I feel stuffy and crazy sitting on a soft sedan chair, so I might as well walk. Anyway, it's too early for the two of us to come, so it's better to walk around. ”

Lijun was relieved to be close to Yingshu, but the two couldn't help but wonder: "If the queen is unwell, the banquet will be canceled." Why did you transfer to the Longevity Palace? This change of person and host can be solved, but the snow feast has changed the palace, is it possible that the things prepared can be moved to the Longevity Palace all at once? ”

Lijun shook her head in confusion: "Who knows? It's just that it can be seen that His Majesty really loves Concubine Pu, that is, the noble concubine, and there is no reason to summon the wife on behalf of the queen. I can hear that most of the people who entered the palace this time are the wives and grandmothers of various families, and we are special female officials who have been invited in. It's kind of polished. ”

Because the two of them are walking, when they arrive at the Longevity Palace, they are not the first few people who arrived, the palace is already crowded with a bunch of ladies and ladies, Yingshu looks at it, but they are all princes and wives of what kind of family, they are all wives and daughters of powerful ministers and nobles, and she and Lijun do not seem to be noble.

Concubine Pu is luxurious and generous today, wearing a red placket gold thread seeded embroidered phoenix wearing a peony pattern Ruyi jacket, the lower body is decorated with pearls of dark blue gold weaving Chang'e jade rabbit knee folded horse face, covered with a large sleeve cloud brocade embroidered phoenix flower cloak of the same color as the jacket, combed the most complicated mountain cloud bun on the head, with a complete set of gold inlaid jade phoenix wear a hundred flowers head face, both sides decorated with pearl tassels gilt rose style pick hairpin, two ears with seven layers of small pavilion decorated with small agate beads style gold ear bell, At first glance, it is the brilliance of the golden mountain and jade pile, but it seems that the young beauty is a little more graceful and mature, but it is a little different from the humble and innocent little girl in the memory.

Yingshu and Lijun saluted: "The concubine visits Concubine De, and the mother is blessed with Jin'an." ”

Concubine Pu showed a happy look when she saw Ying Shu enter the door, but because of the presence of many people, she could only follow the etiquette to accept Ying Shu's salute, so she smiled faintly: "Wang Niangzi and Shi Niangzi sit down." ”

Ying Shu and Li Yun picked up the seats and sat down, but next to Ying Shu happened to be Mrs. Cui, the wife of the obedient Hou Wu Kezhong, who had opened her face before she got married. Mrs. Cui smiled faintly at Ying Shu, and then leaned a little closer to chat with Ying Shu: "Mrs. Wang is pregnant and has also been summoned?" ”

Ying Shu smiled peacefully: "Yes, the feast of appreciating the snow naturally comes with vassal elegance." ”

Mrs. Cui whispered, "This is a rule, you are heavy now, you shouldn't have come." I don't know why the queen mother came to a whim, but she was unwell this morning, but she taught us to come to Concubine Pu. Mrs. Cui snorted coldly: "If Niangniang can't preside, it's okay to change the day." Why is it Concubine Park's turn to entertain us? Seeing that it is His Majesty's favor, this is full of gold and jade, and it is full of phoenix appearance, although we ordinary women can also use phoenix patterns, but they are also grand ceremonies, and her concubine Pu's regular clothes are embroidered with phoenixes, in the end, she has lost her respect for the queen's mother. ”

Ying Shu unconsciously looked over again, and then realized that there were too many phoenix patterns on Concubine Pu's body, and Concubine Pu was originally an extremely pure and elegant person, but now it is indeed different. I saw that Concubine Park was sitting upright and was flattered by several talkative women, and there seemed to be a sense of crampedness and uneasiness on her face, so she could only sigh and reply to Mrs. Cui: "I think it was the queen mother who entrusted Concubine Park to entertain us, and the dress was more grand for the queen mother." ”

Mrs. Cui shook her head: "I don't know, but I just see if the preparation is good." said that it was a good snow feast, why did you sit in this hall and drink tea? ”

"Isn't it because people didn't come? Madame was also a little anxious," Ying Shu smiled and said, "Why do you think that you can't eat and drink as soon as you come up?" ”

As soon as Ying Shu's words fell, there was another voice from the palace maid of the inner prison outside the hall, "Grandma Wuqing Bofu has arrived!" ”

Ying Shu followed the sound and looked over, only to see that Ying Chang, who had not been seen for a long time, was slowly entering with dignified steps, she was wearing a long cloak with light pink jacquard and dark plum pattern, and a light purple embroidered folded magnolia horse face on the lower body, and only holding a simple but not simple bun on her head was fixed with a set of begonia beads that burned blue and red treasures.

Ying Chang stepped forward slowly and saluted Concubine Pu with extreme standards: "The concubine sees Concubine Pu's mother, and the mother is blessed." ”
