Southern Qi, Moling.

On the magnificent palace, Zhai Yi is fine, the cloud sideburns are jade rings, the queen of Emperor Chengning, Qiu's arm is wrapped and jumped, revealing half of the snow-white wrist, she has a graceful bearing, round face and plump cheeks, and is very blessed as the saying goes, but it is not very beautiful, and she is holding a pen, and she is thinking about the artistic conception of the orange tree that His Royal Highness has just moved over.

Next to her for her ink is not a palace person, but a five or six years old, richly dressed boy, eyebrows and eyes, Queen Qiu brewed, re-dipped in the inkstone, only two strokes, outside hurriedly walked into a colorful palace people, holding a note, was about to make a statement, but was the boy who studied the ink made a look, busy silenced, retreated aside.

If the autumn queen was gone, she didn't finish painting the entire orange tree, looked at it carefully, and discussed it with the boy next to her for a while, then nodded with satisfaction: "Take the private seal of the palace." "At present, there are palace people who have held the small seal used by the autumn queen in private, after asking for instructions, printed on the upper left corner of the painting - the southern Qi is known, the autumn queen's calligraphy is outstanding, the painting skills are mediocre, partial but fond of painting, when he painted, that is, when the first emperor Gaozong was alive, there was an urgent summons to finish the last stroke before going, Gaozong did not think it was angry, but praised her for acting attentively, and there was a sincere gentleman ancient style.

Gaozong praised it like this, when he arrived at Emperor Chengning, even the Empress Dowager Feng did not dare to disturb her while she was painting, and the people of the Caiyi Palace waited for a while, and Queen Qiu ordered everyone to accept the orange tree map, raised her eyes to look at her, and asked tepidly: "What's the matter?" ”

"Niangniang, this is news that has just arrived." The people of the Caiyi Palace saluted, and Fang held the letterhead in both hands.

Queen Qiu glanced at it, the boy went down to take it, and brought it up to her, Queen Qiu opened her eyes and looked at it, the corners of her mouth hooked slightly, revealing a smile, and the servants all knew that Queen Qiu was born in a big family in the south of the Yangtze River, and she was very angry, and she had never been frightened or afraid, but now the corners of her mouth were hooked and not said, and her eyes were full of smiles, and she was extremely happy, but Queen Qiu had strict rules, and everyone did not dare to joke at will.

But the boy in the fancy costume asked curiously, "Why is the imperial grandmother happy?" ”

This boy is the eldest grandson of Queen Qiu, and now the eldest son of Zuoqiu Yanzhi, the prince of Southern Qi, Zuoqiu Zhen, who is always liked by Queen Qiu, and brought up by his side from the East Palace in the full moon, at this moment after listening to Zuoqiu Zhen's words, the corner of Queen Qiu's mouth smiled deeper, and gently put the letterhead in his hand, and said with a smile: "Your father is worry-free!" ”

Zuoqiu really looked at it, and his eyes lit up!

When the envoy of the Southern Qi Dynasty returned home, the last batch of girls also lived in the Suihu Palace, and Ji Shen pressed it for a long time, and when it came to the time when he personally selected it, he was overjoyed, and passed on the harem, so that Sun and others went over to accompany him - it was also a reference for him.

This order, the people did not object, after all, the truth of knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent was placed there.

Early in the morning, Ah Shan led a group of people to the inner hall, the clothes were carefully selected a few days ago, it was a jade-colored gold placket with wide sleeves, and the placket was embroidered with layers of hibiscus flowers and leaves with crow green and primrose two-color silk threads, but the long sleeves were sparse phoenix tail lines, with inlaid treasure twisted gold belt, tied with a snow green fairy skirt, the gold thread on the skirt was embroidered with a group of bats, refracted with each step, brilliant.

The robe was discussed with Ah Shan and others, and asked Mu Biwei's meaning, combed a simple bun for her, the hairpin ring with four jasper hibiscus flower hairpins, a pair of tired silk pinched gold inlaid gemstone hibiscus flower step shaking, two night pearls fell along the corner of the temples, straight to the corner of the eye, and there is a main hairpin, as a bat-shaped, the mouth of the jade zhi, the zhi hanging beads, just fall in the center of the eyebrows, and Cui Tian fit.

In this way, he depicted the eyebrows of the distant mountains, pounced on the yellow powder, made a crescent moon mark, pasted the star Zijing, put on the makeup of Tiangong Qiao, put on the gold chuan, jade bracelet, jump off and other things, hung a Yingluo circle on the neck, and held the long curtain of the concubine-colored embroidered rich peony together and put it on the arm bend - the group looked left and right, and took a pair of white jade rings to wear and pressed the corner of the skirt, and walked on the silk shoes, and then the costume was completed.

Looking at the time, Ah Shan personally fed and ate a small bowl of Bi Stem rice porridge, Mu Biwei told the Fan family and the Deng family to look at Princess Fu Xiping, and then got on the chariot and went to Suihu Palace.

The name of Suihu Palace is taken from Yu's "Suisui White Fox, Nine-Tailed Pang Pang." Chengzi's family, it is all prosperous", which means that the heirs are prosperous, and the women have always lived in it, in order to wish the royal descendants to reproduce.

Ji Shen stayed in the New Year's Hall last night, although the Sun family is still charming and beautiful, but he is thinking about the newcomer, but he arrived early, Mu Biwei glanced at the emperor outside the Suihu Palace, sneered, and Fang was supported by Ah Shan to get off his steps.

Before entering the palace, I felt the fragrance of fat powder everywhere, and before I arrived in the hall, I had heard the laughter of several strange and crisp girls, Mu Bi pursed her lips slightly, and asked the waiter who led the way: "Is it starting now?" ”

The attendant hurriedly said: "Back to Xuanhui Niangniang's words, Your Majesty has not yet begun to summon the picking girls, there are a few picking girls who do not know that Your Majesty is coming today, early in the morning by the palace road pinching flowers and playing, it just so happened that Your Majesty and You Zhaoyi came in to see, so they summoned to the main hall by the way, and now those picking girls are talking and laughing with Your Majesty." ”

Mu Biwei exchanged glances with Ah Shan, and said with a light smile: "Listen to a few lively girls!" ”

The chamberlain smiled and said, "Your Majesty said the same thing. ”

Mu Bi smiled indifferently, the liveliness of the heart Dao Bengong is not the same as Ji Shen's so-called liveliness!

Ah Shan asked again: "Except for Your Majesty and You Zhaoyi, haven't the other ladies in the palace arrived?" ”

"Ning Hua Niangniang and Rong Hua Niangniang have arrived." The chamberlain whispered, "Chenghui Niangniang had a brain fever yesterday, and she told His Majesty that she wouldn't come this morning." ”

Jiao's sudden illness was also known to Mu Biwei, and she was not surprised, so she only said, "It turns out that He Guangxun hasn't come yet?" ”

"Back to Niangniang's words, exactly." After saying this, he also went to the outside of the palace, and the inner attendant who guarded the entrance of the temple hurriedly went in to pray, and Ah Shan took the purse and the inner servant who led the way.

Entering the main hall, I saw the first Dan on the pier, Ji Shen gon dress crown, majestic and majestic, lined with his plump and handsome, really suspected of being a celestial, next to Sun dressed in a purple brocade suit, the style is similar to the queen Zhai Yi not to say, even the long hair is also pulled into a Lingyun bun, Zhu Cui is more expensive than a piece, the long eyebrows that grow into the sideburns, the phoenix eyes are full of anger, and Ji Shen's full face is in stark contrast.

Seeing Mu Biwei come in, the two of them invariably showed a hint of a smile, Sun eased the original anger, and reluctantly pulled out a smile on Mu Biwei, and nodded slightly, but Ji Shen was in a good mood, beckoned Mu Biwei to sit on his right hand, and pointed to one of the several girls who gave him a seat and smiled: "Wei Niang, who do you think this is?" ”

Mu Bi Weili was called to the Danqi before he could do it, and he sat down to listen to him ask, and looked at him in surprise, but saw that among the four or five picking girls below, what Ji Shen pointed out was a girl with a double snail, a golden bell, a colorful dress, and a red eyebrow, about fourteen or fifteen years old, between the eyebrows, it was not like the tactful and affectionate state of an ordinary girl, but it was quite resolute and frank, but Mu Biwei stared at her for a few breaths and still had no clue, so she had to bow on the seat and say: "The concubine is clumsy, but she doesn't recognize this girl!" ”

She said this, but before Ji Shen could answer, she listened to the colorful girl and said calmly: "Your Majesty, the people haven't finished speaking, the father of the people's daughters, the old ministry is not fake, but Xuanhui Niangniang grew up in Yedu, how can she know the people who grew up in the northwest?" ”

When this Cai girl said this, Mu Biwei suddenly realized and asked: "In the old department of my father's father, there are a few people in this palace who have also heard of it, but I don't know who you are?" ”

The colorful girl got up and saluted her, and said loudly: "Back to Xuanhui Niangniang's words, the people's daughter's surname is Ye, Ye Hanxi, and the father Ye Zigui has been the old department of the pastoral order since the time of the first emperor, and the brother of the people's daughter was also a subordinate of Sima. ”

"This palace remembers Ye Zigui." Mu Bi thought about it slightly, and was secretly glad that when Mu Qi and Mu Bichuan talked to him in the past, he refused to leave coquettishly, but he also wrote down a few people, and said with a smile at this moment, "But when I met Rouran when I was the first emperor, I didn't have time to go into battle in armor and fight, and I slashed Rouran's fifteen horsemen and returned unscathed, but I was reprimanded by my father?" ”

Ye Hanxi, the girl in colorful clothes, pursed her lips and smiled, and said with a hint of respect in her clear voice: "If you go back to your mother, it is your father, but although the pastoral order reprimands, it is also the love of the father, and afterwards, the pastoral order also asked for the title of General Huwei for the father!" ”

"General Ye is unmatched, and this palace heard my father talk about it at the time, and he was also quite praised, but I was afraid of it afterwards." Mu Biwei saw that her respectful attitude towards herself did not seem to be fake, and she couldn't help but feel that she was a little kind, and when she said this, she turned her head and scolded Ji Shen according to the usual practice, "Don't you think that with the courage and loyalty of General Ye, it is too aggrieved to teach such an outstanding and handsome girl to enter the palace to serve Your Majesty, and just a Huwei general?" ”

Ji Shen had already talked with Ye Hanxi, and at this moment he happily said: "What Wei Niang said is exact, then I will classify Ye Zi as ......."

He didn't think of how to reward him here, so he heard Ye Hanxi say lightly: "Back to Your Majesty, don't promote the father of the people's daughter." ”

Ji Shen was stunned for a moment, Mu Biwei knew that he didn't like to be rejected the most, so he hurriedly said: "You just entered the palace, and you haven't taken a serious position yet, and now you are promoted to father and brother, which is indeed not in accordance with the rules." He said to Ji Shen again, "Your Majesty, General Ye is very good at teaching his daughter, although it is only right to promote his father's family after the official sealing of the position of Hanxi, we don't care about this, but the previous dynasty will inevitably have to say more about this matter, and it is better to make an order after the official canonization, this is all sensible in Hanxi." ”

- According to the rules, if you want to glorify your father's family because of the woman's entry into the palace, you must at least have a concubine, no matter how you make an exception, you always have a formal concubine, but it is common to take women into the palace, the first position, unless it is like the Empress Dowager Gao who wants to marry Ji Shen and choose the daughter of a high-ranking official and eunuch, in order to set off the queen's respect, the position of the people in the same batch will be slightly higher, and the granddaughters of the county children in the past are also scattered beauties, and this time it is probably the same.

After Mu Biwei said this, no matter what the girl next to her, this Ye Hanxi can't run the lowest royal maid.

The other girls also knew a little bit about these days in the Suihu Palace, and their eyes were full of envy when they looked at Ye Hanxi at this moment.

I didn't want Ye Hanxi to say: "Back to Your Majesty and Niangniang, the reason why the Minnu said that the Minnu's father should not be promoted is because the Minnu's parents and brothers, sisters-in-law, and the two younger brothers have all died in the Xuelan Pass in the fifth year of Taining, and then the court has been posthumously sealed, so there is no need for it!" ”

For a time, the temple was suffocated.
