Volume 1 Wind and Snow Entering the Purple Terrace Chapter 142 The Bai Clan Enters the Palace
Two days later, it was time for the wife to be visited.
Originally, according to the rules handed down from the previous dynasty, the woman was ordered to enter the palace, she had to go to Ganquan Palace to meet the Queen Mother first, and the Queen Mother spoke, so that she could go everywhere to see the concubines of each palace, but the Empress Dowager Gao was extremely disgusted with those relatives from humble backgrounds in Ji Shen's harem, so in addition to those women who were born in at least four grades or above official families could go to the Heyi Palace to greet the Empress Dowager Gao in person, such as Tang Longhui's maiden relatives were only far away outside the Ganquan Palace and were watched by the little attendant guarding the palace gate and kowtowed.
Although the He family has been flattering the people on Zuo Zhaoyi's side since entering the palace, and she is also an official girl in terms of background, everyone knows that her ancestors were cheap in the previous dynasty, and the He family's official position is not high now, and she is bent on relying on her daughter to take the throne, and the Empress Dowager Gao looks down on the behavior of the He family, so although the He family was taken by Zuo Zhaoyi, and she also asked for a few times in front of the Empress Dowager Gao, but the Empress Dowager Gao didn't look down on her in the end, so the Bai family could only kowtow outside the Ganquan Palace, and was led to the Dingxing Hall by the little chamberlain who was waiting nearby in Gyeongbokgung Palace.
Dingxing Hall is burning hot earth dragon, He is a person in good spirits on happy occasions, deliberately changed into a brightly colored vermilion placket Guangxiu shirt with primrose-colored fairy skirt, the wide sleeves are crimson entwined peonies, the Wei Rui lingers straight into the waist, hidden in the woven gold brocade belt, she was born with bright light, such a passage of extravagance is compelling, looking at the dignified lord of the palace.
When Bai saw her personally welcome her to the palace gate, he was a little surprised: "Why did Niang Niang personally welcome her?" As he spoke, he was about to salute her, but he had already been pulled in by the He family and walked in, and said indifferently: "The Queen Mother will be busy here, and she doesn't have time to care about me here, A-Niang has worked hard all the way to the palace, come in quickly." ”
"In the end, it's at the gate of the palace, if anyone hears me, it's nothing, after all, I can't see the Queen Mother, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will say that we have a shallow foundation and no rules." Because the He family was favored when she entered the palace, and she bought Nie Yuansheng and several other waiters who could enter and leave the harem earlier, even if she did not become the head of the first palace, she was always in contact with the family, and in the middle, the He family pestered Ji Shen and allowed the Bai family to enter the palace, and the Bai family was not the first time to come back to visit her daughter.
However, when she entered the palace for the first time, the He family was still only a woman, because she was oppressed by Tang Longhui after entering the palace, it was easy to compete for favor and compete for the position of the world's wife, and when she saw her mother, she was naturally excited.
Therefore, Bai Shi has always remembered that this will be mentioned uneasily.
"Madame, don't worry, at this time and that time, when Niangniang entered the palace not long ago, she was only a woman, and she could not occupy the main position of a palace, and there were inevitably many snoopers around. Momozhi knows what the Bai family is worried about, she is the He family's companion, she has accompanied the He family since she was a child, and she can be regarded as growing up with the Bai family, so she is much closer when she speaks.
When Bai Shi heard this, he looked at his eldest daughter with relief, and sighed: "Our He family has a shallow foundation and an official position is not high, but it is a hard-working aunt who is alone in the palace!" ”
This aunt evoked He's memories of his only half-brother He Hai "Erlang", her eyes suddenly turned red, and she noticed that although Bai didn't dare to dress too plain in order to enter the palace, she was only dressed in a purple begonia brocade dress, Qiu Xiangluo skirt, and the ornaments were all simple and simple, the He family was rich, although the external performance was only like ordinary businessmen, but in fact it was not inferior to some ordinary families, He naturally understood how much his family property was, she was the eldest daughter in the third room of the Yan Branch, and the Bai family was the main mother of the third room, and she entered the palace. In order not to make the eldest daughter lose face, the first few times were to strive for decency and not overstep, how can it be as simple as today?
Looking at Bai's pampering for many years, although he does not look old, there are now fine lines at the corners of his eyes...... She suppressed the resentment in her heart, and personally pulled Bai into the main hall, Peach Branch sent the palace people who were originally guarding the main hall, Peach Leaf personally carried an ebony lacquer plate in, Bai glanced at the sweet white glaze drop bowl in the bowl, and the frozen jade in the bowl also seemed to be connected with the porcelain wall in a few places, the color was bright red, and he said: "This is cherry cheese?" ”
Now it is the middle of February, although the cherry is known as the first branch of a hundred fruits, it has not appeared so early, but the former Wei Hao luxury is extremely heavy, the cherry is the name of the former Wei fruit, the so-called good on the top, effective on the bottom, a hundred years ago the Wei people spent a lot of effort to plant this thing, now this season, the appearance of cherries in the palace is not impossible, but there are only two places - Ganquan Palace and the spring on the Gyeonggi Hot Spring Mountain.
A few trees planted in the Ganquan Palace are just a whim of a certain queen mother in the previous dynasty, because those cherry trees are very ancient, although they can still bear fruit, but in order not to damage the tree force, they have always only picked a small part to offer the queen mother, but it is the hot spring mountain outside the city of Yedu, because there are several large and small hot springs on the mountain, so some fruit trees that grow against the time are planted.
It's just that these anti-timed fresh fruits, first offered to the Queen Mother, then Ji Shen, and then Zuo Zhaoyi, Ouyang Ninghua, and Sun Guifei are indispensable, Empress Dowager Gao loves her only daughter Xuanning Princess very much, but King Anping and King Guangling will not be missing a share, not to mention that now the prime minister is acting as the regent of the court, although Ji Shen is an old thief in the face of these two people, but Empress Dowager Gao always has to come forward for her son...... In this way, although the He family is favored, it is extremely difficult to distinguish.
When Bai saw that He took it out to entertain him, he was naturally surprised and delighted.
"Madame has always liked cherries, and Niangniang remembered it two days ago, so she asked His Majesty for a copy early." Momoba explained with a smile.
When Bai Shi heard this, he couldn't help but say angrily: "I can buy it outside in two months, why do you bother Your Majesty for me?" ”
"Madame, don't worry, Your Majesty is interested in Niangniang, Niangniang is just mentioning it, Your Majesty will order that in the future, the fresh fruits on the hot spring mountain will have a share of our Dingxing Palace." Taozhi naturally knew what Bai wanted to hear most after saying this, and replied sweetly at the moment.
As soon as she heard that Ji Shen loved He so much, the Bai family was really overjoyed, and the He family saw that the peach branch and the peach leaf led the Bai family to say these words, and the sorrow between her eyebrows because of the death of her only son also went a little, and she sighed in her heart, and asked: "Why didn't Sanniang bring it here?" In the past, I sent people to the fence, but now I am the lord of the first house, and she doesn't have to look at anyone when she comes, I haven't seen her since I entered the palace. ”
"She ......" Bai Shi heard this, and the hand that stirred the cheese couldn't help but pause, revealing a hesitant look, and He's heart sank when he saw this-after beating He Hai, what He was most concerned about in his peers was the only one with the same father and mother, He Sanniang! Seeing Bai Shi's reaction like this, he naturally thought of something bad, and his face changed suddenly!
Fortunately, the maid Ting'er, who followed the Bai family into the palace, although she didn't have a chance to interject along the way, seemed very silent. Zi is clever, busy with a slightly trance Bai replied: "Niangniang, don't worry, Sanniang is fine, just the marriage, Ah Lang said that Sanniang's husband is afraid of the rules, so Sanniang hurried to learn the rules, this time I won't go into the palace to visit Niangniang!" ”
He Shi was relieved when he heard that He Sanniang was fine, but then he said suspiciously: "Sanniang is only twenty-seven now, how can the marriage be decided?" And why didn't you talk to me about it when A-Niang entered the palace last time? ”
He Sanniang is indeed as rumored by the outside world, she is not inferior to Sister Nai in terms of beauty, although she is not as sharp as He's, but she has a calm personality and is also a person with ideas, not to mention the example of her own sister entering the palace from a lover to Ronghua, of course the He family will not wronged her marriage.
And although the lintel of the He family is not high, but relying on the He family's entry into the palace and promotion quickly, now some weakened high-ranking families do not dare to provoke the He family easily, just afraid that He Ronghua will blow the pillow wind, and the girls of the He family have also risen in status because of such a favorite concubine, and the He family's enterprising heart will naturally not ask them to marry at will - not to mention He Ronghua's only sister?
The last time the Bai family entered the palace, he also said that the elders of the He family meant that since He Ronghua was promoted to Ronghua in less than a year after entering the palace, and he has been favored so far, then the nine concubines are not all hopeless, and the women of the Liang Dynasty said that although they have been looking for relatives since they were twelve or thirteen years old, they are all above twenty-eight in the cabinet, and He Sanniang is born well and has ideas, and she is not afraid of finding a good husband if she stays for two years to sixteen.
At that time, He Hai had not yet died, and He Ronghua also felt that when He Hai returned from his travels, he managed to coax Ji Shen and He Hai to seek an official position, in the end, the glory brought by Sister A was not as confident as that of his brother, so he also agreed with the thoughts of the He family's elders - why has it been so long, and He Sanniangzi's brother He Hai has just died, and Sanniangzi not only decided to have a family affair, but also didn't even tell the He family in the palace?
This question is not something that Ting'er dares to answer, she lowered her head and made it clear that she didn't dare to say it, Bai had to fight her spirit, coughed unnaturally first, and said, "Yes...... Mujia Dalang-kun! ”
"What!?" He Shi was suddenly frightened, and quickly stood up in anger, and even turned over the cherry cheese in front of Bai's with his sleeves, and the cheese and bowl fell on Bai's body, Ting'er sighed, Taozhi and others hurriedly stepped forward and pressed He Shi and said urgently: "Niang Niang must be a god!" Erlang Jun is the beloved son of Mrs. Erlang, there must be some reason for this! Don't panic! ”
Peach Leaf also said: "Now that the cold is not over, although the hall is burning with earth dragons, it is better for Mrs. to change her clothes first." ”
As she spoke, she glanced at Bai and Ting'er, and the two of them understood, and took advantage of Taozhi's coaxing and persuasion to He to exit the main hall, and followed him to a room next to him to change clothes, so that He could be calm and calm at this time.

Pretty much the same as an old lady?
