Chapter 24: Discomfort

Qingcheng was led into the Yikun Gate by the inner attendant, and did not enter the main hall, but went straight to the east. Only see the house of three yellow glazed tiles on the top of the hard mountain, under the eaves Shi dougong, the beam fang is decorated with colorful paintings, and three gold lacquer characters are hung on it - "Qingyun Zhai".

Er Qi led the palace maids and eunuchs to wait at the bottom of the stairs and bent their knees to say goodbye. The door of the 10,000-character brocade is wide open, the green orange goes all the way in, and the hall is bright in front of it, and there is a carved Luan throne in the middle, an ebony openwork lotus embroidered screen, a copper gilded water flower water legal person clock, and a variety of palace fans and incense burners. The east side is carved with rosewood magpie climbing plum floor cover, and the west side is carved with rosewood openwork vine and pine twig floor cover, separating the main room from the east and west. The east room is the flower hall, with large kang tables and chairs, and the west room is the bedroom, with an ebony gilt lotus leaf bed and a glass mirror.

Qingcheng looked around, changed into his usual clothes in the dormitory, sat back in the east flower hall, and rested on the kang.

Hai'an stepped forward with lotus seed tea and said with a smile: "Little master, we now have a separate kitchen and pantry in our house. Listening to the discussion of the palace people who sprinkled and swept below, the emperor personally selected two cooks from Suzhou and Hangzhou from the imperial dining room to cook meals for the little master. ”

In front of the kang is a glass window with a longevity pattern of 10,000 characters, and the sun shines brightly into the room, like sprinkling a layer of golden light, dazzling everywhere. Qingcheng smiled gently and said, "The newly transferred palace people from the Internal Affairs Office, you have to put some effort into it." ”

Hai'an knew his deep meaning and said with a smile: "Erqi and they are all very good, they are quick and dexterous in doing things, and they all have tight mouths. ”

Qingcheng nodded, took a sip of tea, and said, "With you to see, I can rest assured." As he was talking, Er Qi came in and asked respectfully, "Little master, do you want to eat?" Qingcheng put aside the teacup and said, "I ate a few pieces of dim sum in Changchun Palace just now, but I don't feel hungry at this time." After a pause, he asked, "What time is it?" ”

Er Qi glanced at the copper-plated gold-plated water law on the high table and said, "It's not too late." ”

Qingcheng thought for a moment and said, "When it comes to Shen in a while, let's eat it together with a snack." When Erqi heard this, he bent his knees, said "yes," and went down to command. Qingcheng got up early, and he was a little tired at that time, so he lay down and rested on the kang morning.

As the sun set in the west, the autumn sun slanted into the house, she slept hazy, and someone came in in a trance, and forced herself to open her eyes, and saw someone standing in front of the kang looking at herself and laughing. Suddenly, she sat up, didn't even wear socks, and was about to get off the kang to salute.

When the emperor saw her burrowing into her embroidered shoes barefoot, her white and thin ankles still exposed, he raised his hand and said, "Excuse me." ”

The feet of Han women are extremely precious, and except for the husband, no man is allowed to look at them. Although the emperor was her husband, she was a little shy, and shrunk into the brocade quilt and covered half of her body.

Her voice still had a hint of laziness, and she said softly: "The concubine is rude." ”

The emperor was in a very good mood and didn't care, he grabbed her right hand, looked back and forth, and said, "Does it still hurt?" ”

Qingcheng's heart warmed, and said: "I smeared the aloe vera paste given by the emperor again in the morning, and it doesn't hurt anymore." Her hand was delicate and smooth, and he couldn't let go of it in the palm of his hand. When she returned to the house, she took off her makeup and flag, her hair was covered with green silk on her shoulders, and she was sleeping in a mess.

The emperor stretched out his hand and brushed a few strands of hair from her face to the back of her head, and said with a smile: "You should also pay attention in the house, it's just a matter of seeing this appearance, but don't let the queen and concubine see it, you still have a long time to deal with them in the future." ”

Qingcheng knew that he had lost his manners, and his heart was pounding. In the past, in Zhongcui Palace, no one paid attention to her, and the rules were extremely lax in dressing, and she didn't even wear a flag for most of the month, but now she suddenly moved to Yikun Palace, and she was favored by the saint, and it was difficult to adapt for a while.
