Chapter 084: Palace Maiden Yinglian
"But what about the day? Put down the tent in the daytime, what do people say when they ask? Jian Yue asked again.
"I said that it was warm, and I didn't know what insect was bitten at night, so I told me to put down the tent and block it." As he spoke, he got up and beckoned Jian Yue to carry Yinglian on his bed together.
Yinglian was moved to the bed with sleeves, and Jian Yue found her a set of her own clean clothes, and the sleeves were delicate, worried about revealing the horse's feet, so she asked Jian Yue to carefully put away Yinglian's original clothes.
Huai Sleeve took Yinglian's vein, feeling a little stronger than just now, and then instructed Jian Yue to take another futon to rest on the soft couch outside.
The next day, Huai Sleeve went to the Dongnuan Pavilion in the front yard early to accompany the Queen Mother to the Buddhist hall to chant the scriptures, and then followed Su Malagu to take the scriptures, and it was nearly noon when he came back.
As soon as Huai Sleeve entered the courtyard, he saw Fu Quan holding a long whisk in his hand, wandering around the courtyard.
"Fuquan. What are you doing here? "
Seeing that his sleeves were back, Fuquan hurriedly smiled and trotted over and bowed down to ask An Bi to reply:
"Back to the girl, I heard Sister Jian Yue say this morning that the girl was bitten by an unknown insect last night, I think it is because the spring flowers in the yard have bloomed a lot in the past few days, and the sweet smell attracts the insects, so I use the dust to drive away the flies, so that these things affect the girl's rest at night."
Huai Sleeve smiled when he heard this, and said, "It's rare that you have this meticulousness, so you can find it carefully." "
When I entered the house, I saw only Jian Yue standing next to the cabinet to collect clothes, and glanced at the couch with her sleeves, and the curtain was still tightly covered.
"Why are you alone, what about them?" He lifted the kettle and poured himself a cup of tea, and sat down at the lacquered wood round table.
Jian Yue glanced out, and saw Fuquan's back far away, so she whispered: "I've sent out to do something else, and it's been a few days." "
Huai Sleeve nodded, put down the water cup and walked to the side of the bed to gently open the curtain and look in, seeing that Yinglian's face had gradually returned to blood, and the original unkempt long hair was neatly arranged behind her head, as if she was asleep.
The sleeves gently lowered the drapery. Slowly return to the table and sit down, holding the bowl and thinking about the tea foam.
I was thinking about things in my heart, and the cup in my hand was taken by Jian Yue, and when I looked down with my sleeves, I found that I had sprinkled the dots of tea foam on the skirt and didn't know it.
Jian Yue poured the remaining slightly herbal tea into the spittoon, and changed the cup of hot tea to put it in front of her sleeve. "What does the girl think?"
The shining eyes with her sleeves turned to Jian Yue and asked, "What kind of person is Concubine Yu?" "
Jian Yue was slightly stunned when she heard Huai Sleeve ask like this, she thought about it for a while and asked with a light smile: "Presumably the girl has already heard of Concubine Yu, right?" "
Huai Sleeve only nodded lightly and said, "That day, I overheard Prince Gong talk about it in the East Warm Pavilion of the apse. "
Jian Yue laughed teasingly: "The girl is here in our peaceful and prosperous Cining Palace, if she is selected by the emperor to enter the harem, I am afraid that she will have already smelled the smell of gunpowder from this lady." Jian Yue couldn't help but laugh as she spoke.
"Oh? Is this Concubine Yu so powerful? Huai Sleeve raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Girl, you just have to remove the word 'what', and only the word 'awesome' remains!" Jian Yue smiled and looked at her sleeves.
Seeing that her sleeves were full of inexplicability, Jian Yue gradually restrained her smile, and said in a positive color: "Speaking of the origin of this Concubine Yu, in fact, there is no girl dignity, the girl is a draft of the Eight Banners to enter the palace, and her ancestors are just the spore clothes of the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.
However, when her brother said it, the girl must have heard of it, that is, Wu Qi, who had made great achievements in the war at the time and was the governor of Liangguang at the time, and General Wu. "
Huai Sleeve was secretly taken aback when he heard this.
She has heard of this General Wu Qi for a long time, the last time Rong Ruo went to the south on an errand, it was the Liangguang under the jurisdiction of General Wu, I heard that when dealing with the election of officials in the west, Wu Qi cut off seven heads in a row, not counting, but actually sealed the heads and sent them to Beijing for Emperor Kangxi to see with his own eyes,
I heard that this Wu Qi also got another opportunity to become an official and a knight.
It turns out that Concubine Yu is his sister-in-law, no wonder!
"General Wu Qi has won the trust of the saints, this Concubine Yu was just a noble person when she first entered the palace, and she was soon crowned as a concubine." Jianyue Road
"The emperor must have treated her well because of her brother's high power, right?" He asked with a sip of tea.
"Maybe it was at first, but then again, Concubine Yu Niangniang is indeed outstanding, fragrant and charming, and it is said that she also has excellent dancing skills. When she was first promoted to Yu Concubine, the emperor flipped over her brand for several days. Jian Yue said, glancing at her sleeve with the tips of her eyes.
Seeing that Huai Sleeve's face was quiet, and while listening to and eating tea, Jian Yue continued: "Speaking of which, this Concubine Yu's belly is also considered to be competitive, and she was pregnant with a dragon seed after a short time, although she gave birth to a princess, she is indeed smart and clever, and her appearance is very similar to that of Long Live Lord, Long Live Lord hurts like a sharp heart, when even if she is crowned Princess Yongning, the pre-concubine is also a mother and daughter, and she is immediately crowned as Concubine Yu." "
Jian Yue's words fell, the sound of skirts squeezing in the courtyard, and the sound of Ying Xue Lianbi and others laughing.
Juanqiu stepped into the room for the first time, and saw that Huai Sleeve was drinking tea, so he smiled and put a ceramic tea can in his hand on the table, and said:
"The father-in-law of the Internal Affairs Office just came over to send the Queen Mother daily necessities, and sent a few jars of dragon and phoenix tea from Guangxi, and the Queen Mother rewarded Aunt Su Ma with a few jars, and it happened that a few of us dried the bedding, and Aunt Su Ma asked us to bring back two cans for the girl."
Chuan Qiu put the tea leaves on the round table in front of his sleeve.
Huai Sleeve picked up a can, unscrewed the lid and smelled it, a burst of black tea with the earthy fragrance wafted into the nasal cavity, it was the best dragon and phoenix group tea, Huai Sleeve felt warm in his heart, covered the lid and said: "It is indeed a good tea, I will see my aunt tomorrow, I personally thank her." "
Lianbi stood aside and looked at it curiously and asked, "Does the girl also understand tea?" I can smell it just by smelling it, and I can't even drink it. "
Yingxue has a lively temperament, and when she heard Lian Bi say this, she teased: "You also call it tea?" Pick up a big vat and raise your head and pour it all in one breath, people drink tea and call it a product, you are a cow drink. What he said caused a room full of people to laugh.
Lian Bi's face flushed, and she muttered in a low voice: "People don't understand, where is it like our girl is a noble character of the General's Mansion, I am just a bitter child of a small family, what world have I seen?" "
Huai Sleeve was also amused by Yingxue's words just now, and when he saw Lian Bi say this, he opened a tea can, took out a spherical tea ball wrapped in plain paper and handed it to Lian Bi's eyes: "Here, smell and try it." "
Lian Bi couldn't help but be overjoyed when she saw it, rubbed her hands and carefully took the small ball of tea with both hands, put it under her nose, and inhaled hard. After sucking, he closed his eyes and didn't speak, and when he saw her delicate appearance, he couldn't help but laugh again.
