Chapter 2 The girl in the flower season is riddled with strange diseases
Wait a minute...... Stay...... Remember? Isn't this emperor very picky? She pretended to be so stupid just now, and she was actually selected?
"Congratulations to Miss An, Miss An is not grateful, hurry up and retreat." An Ge is the first show girl selected by the emperor today, and the little eunuch who was waiting next to the first concubine of the queen was closest to An Ge, and when he saw An Ge stunned in place, he hurriedly came over to remind her.
An Ge was pulled back to her senses by the voice of the little eunuch, and looked up at the emperor who was very difficult to mess with at first glance, and those eagle-like eyes made her tremble, sure enough, the sacred heart was unpredictable, and now she was not only unaccustomed to seeing the emperor, she even had some fears...... No, you absolutely have to find a way to lose the election.
"Thank you...... Emperor Xie. An Ge stood up with the little eunuch's hand, took two steps back, and suddenly one leg trembled for no reason, his eyes rolled straight, and he looked very ugly.
"What's wrong with you?" The Emperor frowned.
An Ge replied fearfully, "Courtier...... As soon as the courtiers are excited, this leg will go crazy...... But the emperor let it go, this sick person is not a person, the courtier also committed it when she was a child, and she has not committed it again for so many years, and the courtier still thinks it is better......" said and turned around and "snapped" and slapped the little eunuch, and then said in horror: "Courtier...... As soon as the courtiers were happy, they would not listen to their own calls......"
Seeing An Singer's feet twitching, the emperor was really afraid that she would foam at the mouth in the next second, so he patted the armrest of the seat angrily and scolded: "The show girl can still come to me with such a hidden illness!" Are the people in charge of the primary election in front of them blind! ”
Although An Ge wanted to get rid of this emperor, he didn't want to affect others, so he quickly knelt down tremblingly and said: "The disease of the courtier's daughter can't be detected, it is a hidden disease left after being bitten by a snake when he was working in the fields with his father as a child. If you know that this disease has not been cured, the courtiers will never come to the capital to defile the eyes of the emperor and the queen, and ask the emperor to forgive the courtiers for the sake of the old father's heart of retribution! ”
The emperor was angry, and after watching the scene with a handkerchief, the queen rolled her eyes, turned to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, there are all kinds of hidden diseases among the people, and the hidden women and eunuchs can't be blamed if they can't check it." Don't talk about them, they are the imperial doctors in the palace, if they are not well-informed, they probably don't know. An Youping took his daughter to work with the people in person, and he was a good official who was sympathetic to the people, and he sent his daughter to Beijing to serve the emperor. According to the concubine, it is better to forget it. ”
The emperor obviously favored this queen very much, as can be seen from whether he exchanged words with the queen during the selection of the show girl. At this time, after listening to the queen's intercession for An Ge, he thought about it for a while and nodded: "Since the queen is pleading, forget it." But this show girl ......"
"As soon as she has this illness, her hands and feet don't obey the call, in case she hurts His Majesty, it will be too late, so let's put the sign. However, it is not easy for people to come all the way, so His Majesty rewarded An Youping with a thousand taels of silver and asked him to treat his daughter well, how about it? The queen whispered again.
After hearing this, the emperor looked at An Ge with his eyes like a torch, and he didn't know what to calculate. And An Ge was lying on the ground, and he didn't dare to come out.
After a while, the emperor retracted his gaze and nodded: "The queen has spoken, so let's do it, you go back." ”
"Thank you...... Emperor Xie ......"
An Singer's feet were still trembling unconsciously, but her heart had already flown outside. Now that I think about what I did just now, I feel afraid, but fortunately, I got what I wanted.
It's so exciting to have a lot of ups and downs in life.
An Ge got up and withdrew, and before leaving the main hall, she secretly glanced at the queen, she looked like she was in her early twenties, her eyes were bright and bright, bright and moving, her eyes met An Ge's gaze, and she smiled quietly...... Although the emperor has a violent personality and is a mother, this queen is really gentle and kind, if she hadn't begged for mercy just now, then the emperor would definitely not have just left it like that.
An Ge came back to his senses, secretly remembered today's kindness in his heart, and thought that if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely repay her.
followed the little eunuch out of the palace gate just now, and the little eunuch said angrily: "I thought you could be the first concubine to be selected today, and I wanted to please you, but I didn't expect you to be so uncompetitive and slapped me!" Ouch hey, I'm......"
An Ge was indeed a little reluctant in his heart, and took a closer look at the little eunuch, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and it was estimated that he was also a newcomer to the palace. An Ge smiled and took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and stuffed it into him: "Thank you, father-in-law, I'm really sorry just now, please go buy a plaster for this little thought, and I will make amends to you." ”
When the father-in-law heard this, his face looked better, and he took the silver and said: "The emperor's reward for your father's money has been notified to the people of Yangzhou Mansion to be issued, and your trip is not in vain, the front is the palace gate, you go out." ”
"Father-in-law Xie......" An Ge hesitated for a moment and asked embarrassedly, "Father-in-law, may I ask if you are still recruiting palace maids?" ”
"Hey, you haven't broken your mind about entering the palace yet?" The father-in-law glanced at her, "Recruit palace maids, but the palace is not a place where you can come casually, even if you are a palace maid, you must be dexterous with your hands and feet, and you will not be sick or sick." Now the emperor knows that you have this disease, even if your father is really willing to let you enter the palace as a palace maid, you can't get in. ”
Ah! Just now, I impulsively cut off my way to enter the palace in the draft, but I didn't expect the palace maid to be so strict? What can I do about this, how can I check my mother's legacy if I don't enter the palace!
No, we have to find another way.
The little eunuch was about to leave as he spoke, but An Ge hurriedly stopped him, and took out a silver ingot and stuffed it into him: "Father-in-law, slow down, apart from the palace maid and concubine, is there any other way for me to enter the palace?" I can do anything, I can embroider and cook, do you look at the imperial dining room and the show? ”
The little eunuch pinched the silver in his hand, and after receiving so much money, he was in a much better mood, thought about it carefully, and said, "As I said just now, the people in the palace must not be sick. However, there is a place outside the palace, where you can enter the palace often, which is no different from being an errand in the palace, and you don't have to look in front of the masters, and you are much more free. ”
An Ge's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Please teach my father-in-law." ”
The little eunuch glanced at her with contempt: "But where I just said, people require you to be familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, be able to read and break sentences, write and compose, and even if you can read those two limerick poems, even I am not as good as you, and you will definitely not be able to enter." ”
"If you can't get in, you have to try, father-in-law, just tell me......" An Ge hesitated for a moment, seeing that the little eunuch was still holding a shelf, he took out the last ingot of silver on his body and stuffed it into his father-in-law's hand, "Father-in-law, this is my last silver, I am filial to you, I can't go back to Yangzhou, just tell me, what is that place called, where is it?" ”
The little eunuch got three ingots of silver in vain, and his attitude was much better, and he said: "The place I said is called 'Di Bao Mansion', our emperor and queen couple have a deep affection, the emperor in order to prevent the harem ladies from having nothing to do, and in order to reduce the burden of the queen's mother, he specially approved the establishment of the "Harem Di Bao" museum, which specially wrote something for the masters of the harem to see. The officials who work in it have to be in constant contact with the ladies, so they are all ladies who can read and break sentences. ”
An Ge's nearly extinguished hope was rekindled. In fact, her performance in front of the emperor just now was all deliberately pretended, her talent was quite a true inheritance of her father, and she was a well-known talented woman in Yangzhou when she was a child. This "Harem Mansion Newspaper" is simply tailor-made for her, which is much better than being an emperor and concubine and a palace maid and a chef!
After speaking, the little eunuch glanced at her again, shook his head worriedly and said: "Go to the Dibao Mansion on an errand, although you don't need to go through the imperial examination like a man, but you also need their supervisor Lord Liu to be in the picture, it is rumored that this Liu Da is talented and talented, can you take a fancy to you......" The little eunuch shook his head, sighed, and said, "I gave you the news, but can you go in, I can't help you, you go out of Anhua Gate and turn right and go straight, after two miles, you can see Dibao Mansion." ”
An Ge thanked the little eunuch and was about to leave, when the little eunuch called out to her again: "By the way, I got your three ingots of silver for nothing today, if you really have the opportunity to go to the mansion on an errand in the future, you must come to the harem often, and if you need any help, go to Concubine Ning's palace to find me." ”
"Okay, thank you, father-in-law." Ange thanked him again, and after saying goodbye, he hurried in the direction he said.
Just walking out of the palace for more than half an hour, An Ge stood outside the Anhua Gate panting and looking at the majestic bronze lions on both sides of the door, staying in this palace for a long time, there was a feeling of half a life.
"I'll be back soon." An Ge said to himself secretly in his heart.
From time to time, people came and went outside Anwar's door, but everyone was solemn and did not dare to make noise. She still had some broken silver on her, and stopped a car to go to the mansion that the little eunuch said, and just got in the car to talk to the coachman, when suddenly, a chubby little man jumped into the car, grabbed An Ge and whispered for help: "Sister help me......"
