Volume 1 The Wind and Snow Enter the Purple Terrace Chapter 2014 Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet
"Ask Mu Qingyi to take care of His Highness?" Ah Shan was stunned for a moment, and then understood what she meant, and reached out to break a petal of the lotus flower and put it in the palm of Princess Xiping's hand, lest Princess Xiping try to lean out and grab the lotus several times, but because the bones were still soft, she couldn't get up and cried anxiously, and muttered, "This is a way to talk about it...... It's just that Jiang Shunhua's death is strange, although Mu Qingyi was her confidant before her death, she may not be able to believe it! ”
Mu Bi frowned slightly and said: "We don't know about the Chengguang Palace, it's just that I think Jiang Shunhua promoted the Mu family before, and I think I believe her, not to mention that Jiang Shunhua died this time, although His Majesty also knows it in his heart, but the Mu family and others are Jiang Shunhua's close attendants, what do they have to deal with, laughing people, pleasant people, although they are palace maids of no grade, but Shunhua's close attendants, how can they be compared with ordinary palace people?" Even if His Majesty doesn't let them enter Yongxiang, how can it compare to serving the princess? ”
"But Jiang Shunhua was born as a slave and maidservant of the family, and he was not liked by the Queen Mother when he entered the palace, and there was no maid to marry." Ah Shan reminded, "And it's not like Sun Guifei...... Oh, it's like Right Zhaoyi, who was born as a palace maid, and has long been familiar with the palace, and there are a few people who know the roots, whether it's the Mu family, there are a few laughing people and pleasant people, which one didn't enter the palace before Jiang Shunhua? This time, His Majesty executed Xiao Qingyi and Mo Zuosi, don't talk about the matter of the New Year's Palace, but the Chengguang Hall may not be Xiao Qingyi's hand alone! ”
Mu Bi frowned slightly: "When you say that, I have some regret that I made the jacket go to accommodate Lei Mo." ”
She pondered for a moment and said, "Or maybe I'll call Bang Yuan to run again now, maybe Lei Mo won't have time to mention it?" ”
"That's not good." Ah Shan shook his head and reminded, "The girl was able to raise Princess Xiping, the most important thing is that Jiang Shunhua died in childbirth, although Jiang Shunhua was out of breath before the girl entered the delivery room, but it was actually very inappropriate to go back and intercede for Mu Shi, who was in the delivery room at that time and was also Shunhua's close attendant, after all, Jiang Shunhua died, and it was the girl who got the biggest benefit in the open and secret, if Her Royal Highness the princess grew up, she would always know that she was not the girl's own flesh and blood, and if there was that villain instigated and pushed Jiang Shunhua's murder onto the girl, Daummu was bought by the girl at all, this is not a biological one, but there is a layer of separation! ”
Mu Biwei's face suddenly changed: "Yes, this matter is indeed reckless!" ”
"So since the girl opened her mouth to ask for this love for the Mu family, she can't repeat it, after all, she can still insist that she is thinking that the Mu family has been serving Jiang Shunhua, so she asked her to serve the princess of Jiang Shunhua, but the girl first asked someone to intercede, and then repented and passed it out, I'm afraid she will fall into the handle of the plan to kill the mouth." Ah Shan said in a deep voice.
In July, the two high-ranking concubines in the palace were both born prematurely, although Mu Biwei benefited the most, but she also took the same risk, Princess Xiping is still young, and she is not sure what she will look like if she raises it, and Jiang Shunhua himself is very vague, Empress Dowager Gao must have the intention of going to her mother and leaving her son, although He was vague in front of Mu Qingyi that day, but her words could not be accurate, and she may not have intervened, coupled with Nie Yuansheng's smile on this matter, Mu Biwei felt that he might also have a move......
The question is who Jiang Shunhua's life falls into, I'm afraid only the person who did it and Jiang Shunhua himself knows, after all, although He entered the delivery room, Mu may not dare to say it for He's threat, but Xiao Qingyi was also in the delivery room at that time, at that time, Mu Biwei hurried to Chengguang Hall and heard the news that He had entered the delivery room, and thought that Jiang was finished.
But this will calm down and think about it, Xiao Qingyi may not be so weak, she has the support of the Queen Mother behind her, if He Shi is doing things in the delivery room and is noticed by her...... At that time, Ji Shen was waiting in the front hall, but the Queen Mother was also rushing over, why didn't Xiao Qingyi point it out?
In this case, after Princess Xiping grows up, if she suspects the cause of her biological mother's death, Mu Biwei really can't come up with any evidence to prove her innocence - after all, the holy decree said that she and Jiang Shunhua have been friends for a long time, and Jiang Shunhua entrusted her on her deathbed, and those high-sounding words can't hide the wind and language of the six palaces, not to mention that the child can remember when he grows up to four or five years old, although Mu Biwei is now promoted to Xuanhui, it is impossible to control the mouths of the six palaces, even Zuo Zhaoyi has no ability.
Mu Biwei thought for a moment, her eyes fell on Xiping, but she only snorted: "Forget it, how can you calculate everything in the world?" I will never treat her badly, even if she grows up and suspects something, at most she is more estranged, in the end she is just a princess, even if she is a prince, Jiang Shunhua is gone, my adoptive mother is also a mother, how far can she disobey me? ”
She pursed her lips and said lightly, "What's more, I may not have my own biological son!" ”
"That's a good idea." Ah Shan felt that Mu was suspicious before, and he felt that he was too cautious when he heard Mu Biwei say it, not to mention that Mu Biwei didn't do it, but she did it, Princess Xiping will know it again in the future, there is no iron proof like a mountain, the word filial piety can make Princess Xiping dare not snub Mu Biwei, and not everyone is like Ji Shen, Emperor Gaozu personally protected his position as the prince, and caught up with the first emperor Ruizong's body collapsed quickly soon after his reign, and although the Gao family behind the Empress Dowager Gao was strong, it was not strong enough to threaten the royal family- What's more, Jiang Shunhua's background is still secretive in the palace, speaking of which Ji Shen handed over Princess Xiping to Mu Biwei to raise, in addition to promoting Mu Biwei, there is no consideration for Xiping to seek a good future because of Jiang's death, after all, Mu Qi is the person who Ji Shen intends to reuse after the government, and the princess cannot inherit the throne, but a good-looking foreign family is better than nothing.
"Your Majesty is going to give a banquet to Qinglin Hall tonight, Ah Shan said what should I wear?" Mu Biwei saw that she talked about Princess Xiping, and then talked about the Mid-Autumn Festival night banquet.
Ah Shan thought for a while and said: "This is the first time that the girl has shown her face after becoming a concubine in the Jin Palace, but it is not a ceremony, just a night banquet, and now the weather is still hot, it is better to wear the pine green bottom pinched gold silk embroidered cinnamon branch frost skirt, wear a new ginger peony cardigan shirt, the night wind is cool, and it is inevitable to put a lot of ice on the banquet hall, and bring the lotus flower veil with the jacket, if it is cold, it will be draped." ”
Mu Biwei pondered carefully for a moment and nodded.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Qinglin Hall is the place where the state banquet was specially held in the former Wei Dynasty, the place where the foreign envoys were entertained, in order to highlight the strength of the Great Wei Dynasty at that time, the building was particularly majestic and majestic, the white jade paved outside the hall, the crystal was the column, the gold lacquer painted pillar in the hall, the agarwood was the couch, it was on the nine-level Danqi, each level was embedded with five different kinds of jewelry, which meant the ninety-five supreme.
The gold throne on the Danqi is brilliant, a pair of palace lamps next to the seat are full of blue color, at first glance it is a common blue gauze lamp in the palace, only to look carefully to find that it is actually two pieces of watermelon-sized transparent jasper that has been hollowed out and thinned, made into a lampshade, and the light source in the cover is stable - but it is a night pearl the size of two baby fists!
Ji Shen doesn't like to deal with the government, but he likes to have fun, so although he doesn't fall in love with the court, he often has a banquet on the New Year's Festival, especially in July this year, the palace is very undercurrent for the production of the two concubines, so this time the Mid-Autumn Festival specially ordered the officials above the fifth grade in the Yedu to participate - also to take advantage of the joy of the festival to rush those things in the previous month.
The atmosphere of the former Wei Dynasty was open, and the dynasty was deeply influenced by the Wei style, and on such an occasion, the seats of the concubines and the seats of the ministers were only separated by a few screens, and the positions of the concubines near Ji Shen were even seen by the positions of His Royal Highness's courtiers.
He is in one of these seats, she is wearing a wide-sleeved crepe shirt embroidered with red embroidered peach blossoms, a goose yellow and silver silk breast-length skirt inside, combing a bun, pink cheeks and jade face, eyes are full of waves, and she sits in a dignified posture, without the slightest flattery to get along with Ji Shen in private, but looks dignified, if you don't know her details, you will only think that she is a woman strictly taught by the family.
It's just that He's position is not the closest to Ji Shen at today's banquet......
She lowered her head and looked at the bronze jue on the case in front of her through a drink - Ji Shen left and right, each accompanied by a woman in brocade clothes, the left side has the appearance of a fallen city, and although the right side is slightly inferior in appearance, it is better than the Chu Chu moving like a flower blooming and falling - the right Zhaoyi Sun family, and the new head of the concubine, Xuanhui Mu family, such an arrangement shows the real order of the harem unabashedly!
Although Sun has only been out of confinement for a short time, but tonight she is not depressed, her outfit is very grand, it is actually a crimson Zhai clothes, combed on her head with a very complicated four-ring Wangxian bun, beads and green, but because of her peerless appearance, she is not vulgar at all, but will give full play to the words grace and luxury.
Although she is not the queen now, she can accompany Ji Shen near and occupy a more noble left position, Sun looked at His Royal Highness, the concubines, and even the ministers, but with an undisguised overlook!
In contrast, Zuo Zhaoyi Qu, who has the highest nominal position in the harem so far, sat silently in the farthest place from Ji Shen, but it was definitely not close, drinking a cup of cinnamon syrup with an indifferent expression, and his eyes were ethereal......
"Your Majesty, please drink all this bottle, and wish me a long beam of blessings!" The left and right prime ministers took the lead in persuading as usual, and Nie Yuansheng smiled and asked for the same blessings as the people around him, his eyes were smug and vigilant.
This is the August of the fifth year of Taining, and the Qinglin Hall is noisy and shouting, singing and dancing.
Outside the hall, there is a bright moon in the sky, bright and frosty, covered with silver.
