Chapter 097: Exquisite competition for favor

The many feats he made not only made the current emperor Kangxi especially respect the empress dowager, but the concubines and concubines of the palace were even more provoking three times and bowing down.

Huai sleeves followed the sedan chair of Xiaozhuang past these concubines one by one, and as far as the eye could see, they were all delicate and exquisitely carved in pink and jade, and they were actually glamorous.

Compared with these palace concubines who are as bright as spring peonies, today's outfits with sleeves are immediately filled to a bland, and they are even more inconspicuous in the crowd.

Looking at the cloud-like fragrant clothes and sideburns in front of him, Huai Sleeve couldn't help but sigh in his heart: These women who look glorious and prosperous on the surface, how many "red faces are not old and graceful, and they sit in the lavender cage until Ming." "

had no choice but to enter this harem, and some of them obviously had no intention of fighting for spring, but they had to end up with a lonely lamp to keep the sadness of the dawn.

Just thinking about it, the Empress Dowager's phoenix bowl had already fallen outside the Tinglan Water Pavilion, and she followed Su Malagu and Xiaozhuang into the Water Pavilion with her sleeves.

Kangxi Yuan and several ministers tasted a picture of a peony that had just been drawn, and when they saw the queen mother's luan driving falling, they hurriedly entered the pavilion to say goodbye.

"Grandson, please grandmother St. Ann!"

Emperor Kangxi did not like others to call Xiaozhuang the empress dowager, because he disliked the regular title, he only called his grandson and grandmother with the commoners.

Moreover, Kangxi originally grew up in front of Xiaozhuang since he was a child, and he didn't want to take away those complicated etiquette.

Huai Sleeve also kowtowed to the emperor with Su Malagu and other palace maids and eunuchs, until he was flattened.

Huai sleeves always lowered his eyebrows, only heard the voice in his ears, how the emperor looked above, but he was not half interested, only kowtowed with everyone, flattened, and waited quietly behind Xiaozhuang.

After the concubines and courtiers below kowtowed repeatedly, everyone sat down one after another.

There are dozens of peonies in front and back of the Tinglan Water Pavilion, all of which are the most precious styles here.

Kangxi specially selected a few pots of noble and rare white peonies and displayed them in front of the phoenix couch in Xiaozhuang for him to enjoy.

Since Hesheri's death, Kangxi has never been a queen.

Therefore, the back seat next to the dragon chair is still empty, and there is a rosewood octagonal table behind it, but there are two places on the table.

Huai Sleeve glanced at it inadvertently, and saw that Concubine Hui was sitting at the table, chatting and talking with the palace maid while eating melon seeds.

Looking at the location arrangement, it is clear that although I heard that Mingzhu had committed an accident, it did not affect Concubine Hui's special position in front of Emperor Kangxi.

Huai Sleeve secretly thought to himself in his heart, maybe Prince Gong's words Chang Ning were just rumors and unknown?

Just thinking about it, I saw another concubine sitting opposite Concubine Hui slowly get up, gently swayed her willow graceful posture, walked in front of the emperor and the queen mother, and bowed down.

The master's seat was facing away from the sleeve, so she didn't see it for what it was, and now she stood in front of her, and the sleeve saw his face clearly.

I saw the big winged flag head high on her head, and the two sides were decorated with Ruyi-shaped turquoise gemstones, and the center was inlaid with a rose hairpin made of red gold, which was occasionally dotted with two large plump pearls, and then a circle of small pearls around it.

The gorgeous and full color of the red-pink tassels on both sides, and the pink and golden clothes of the peony tuanhua on the body, the white and charming face against the background are more and more magnificent and enchanting.

I saw her slender waist as soft as wicker fall down and bow down, and said softly: "Concubine Yu Concubine to the emperor, the queen mother please be safe, congratulations to the emperor, the queen mother is blessed with gold." "

Xiaozhuang announced that he was flat, and gave a seat next to the emperor, and Concubine Yu sat next to the emperor as a matter of course.

Huai Sleeve peeked at Concubine Hui on the table, and the spring color on Fang Cai's face was gone at this time, as if he inadvertently glanced at Concubine Yu's back in his eyes, flashing with jealousy and jealousy.

Scold! This is the woman next to the emperor, others are always disappointed when they seem to be a little confused, so for so long, how can people's hearts be calm and waveless?

Just thinking about it, his arm was inadvertently touched by Aunt Su Mala on the side.

Huai Sleeve hurriedly closed his eyes, and saw a person walking not far away, this glance, Huai Sleeve was stunned in vain.

Nervously, the thin cherry lips opened slightly, and the sleeves suddenly realized that they were almost out of shape, and quickly bit their lower lip with their teeth, but their eyes reluctantly followed the familiar figure until it came closer.

Since entering the palace, this is the first time that he has looked at him so well.

Huai Sleeve had fantasized about countless reunion scenes, but he didn't expect to actually meet, but it was such a scene.

Rong Ruo is wearing a new robe with nine pythons and five claws today, a crane coat to make up for it, a pair of horseshoe sleeves are turned high, revealing a snow-white lining, and Cui Sensen's double-eyed peacock feathers are dragged on the top of the coral.

The whole body is brand new, and it is heroic, but it is as far away as if she is resting on the river and the sea......

When he approached, Nalan took off his robe and bowed, and after the salute, Xiaozhuang spoke first: "Lord Rong seems to have lost some weight recently, I heard that your cold illness did not recur last winter, why did it warm up in spring, but people have been reduced?" "

Rong Ruo hurriedly replied: "Fortunately, the ancestors remembered, last winter's cold disease was much less than in previous years, and the body did not feel sick. "

Xiaozhuang nodded when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It is precisely for this reason that I don't think about eating and drinking recently, and I still have this meal today, but fortunately, I have a girl who is thoughtful and makes my favorite toon, and I have eaten a lot of meals." "

Xiaozhuang said, and turned around and glanced at his sleeves with a smile.

Huai Sleeve felt a burning heat on his face, drooped his face, his chin was already against the embroidery on his chest, and he only slowly bowed his knees and did not answer.

Rong Ruo's original bright eyes only looked at the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, but when she heard this, she only raised her eyes slightly, and took a wave behind the phoenix couch, and immediately withdrew her divine light, still stopping on the shiny bluestone floor in front of her, and her face was as calm as ever.

Just when Xiaozhuang was chatting with Rong Ruo, he suddenly heard a soft voice interjecting in:

"The concubine suddenly remembered that the emperor has always liked ancient poetry, a few days ago the concubine accidentally read a book, which happened to have a poem praising peony, and today it happened that the ancestor was also there, and the concubine was here to offer an ugly ode."

Concubine Yu said, she slowly stood up, holding a white juan handkerchief, and also imitated the ancient woman who wrote poems and walked to a white peony.

Gently stroking the flowers, he opened his mouth and chanted: "The peony demon in front of the court is unqualified, and the hibiscus on the pond is pure and affectionate." Only the peony is true to the national color, and the flowers move the capital when they bloom! "

Kangxi clapped his hands and praised after hearing this: "Concubine Yu has really grown a lot recently, and the exit is a famous sentence!" "

Seeing that the emperor liked it, Concubine Yu smiled charmingly, and slowly lowered her eyebrows, quite a bit graceful and pitiful.

Kangxi smiled and continued to ask: "Concubine Yu can recite this poem, can you know who the author of this poem is?" "
