In the past few days, the mother Qian has not let Tang Han go out, and the Qian family has found a grandmother who teaches etiquette to teach the three sisters etiquette in the palace. Just in the afternoon, there was no need to learn etiquette, so Aunt Zhang took Tang Han to the tailor's shop to tailor clothes for her. Tang Han also added, don't be too vegetarian.

"It's not good-looking, it doesn't show your beauty. Besides, which woman didn't pick the best dress that day, who remembered you when you were dressed so plainly. ”

"Mother, I don't like colors that are too showy. It is because there are many women that I have to keep a low profile, so as not to be disliked and jealous by everyone in the limelight. ”

"We don't compete with them, but we also want to dress pretty. We'll go to the jewelry store in a moment. ”

"Oh mother, you forgot that your daughter and I made bead flowers, and I will wear a unique bead flower that day."

"No, my daughter wants to wear a good expensive one."

"Mother, the bead flowers are fine, think about the beads I made that day, if the other ladies can see it, let them go to my shop to buy it."

"Well, the girl has an idea."

"Shopkeeper, you have to make it quickly, my daughter is in a hurry to enter the palace and wear it?"

"Don't worry, madam, since I have to stay up late to take this business, I have to make it for you."

"Okay, let's go back and see what else you want to eat, let's buy it back." Don't stay up late these days, don't drink water if it's too late, it's easy to be edema. ”

Tang Han smiled and quipped: "Mother, you know so much." ”

"Mother is a person from here, anyway, don't eat spicy food these days, greasy, go to bed early and get up early. Just endure it first, and then eat it on the past day. ”

"Mother, you're too serious, and you won't be allowed to eat spicy food."

"You don't know how difficult it is to enter the second palace, the first time you go, you have to pay attention, if you have acne on your face, this image of a shiny face will be completely finished."

"Yes, listen to my mother, protect your skin, and enter the palace in the best condition."

"That's right, as long as the Queen Mother likes you, then I'm worried about not being able to find a good family."

"Mother, I'm embarrassed to see what you said."

"What's embarrassing, my mother is telling the truth."

Back in the house, Tang Han sat at the desk and conceived her beaded flower picture, what style to wear to a large banquet, she drew a style according to modern people's thoughts, but she felt that it was not atmospheric. She suddenly thought of the headwear used in the runway of those big-name clothes, and she picked up her pen and drew another one. Fortunately, she usually likes to watch those shows, and has a certain memory of the model's dress and decoration, and now she only needs to make it, which is unique in ancient times. There is not much time, and I must work overtime as soon as possible to make it, otherwise I won't be able to wear it that day.

Han Ningxue and Han Wenya didn't know what they were preparing in private, anyway, they hadn't seen anything else except for learning etiquette together. Mama Jiao Xi is also from the palace, and her mouth is very good at speaking, and she really sees people and talks about people. As soon as they met, they praised the three of them, saying that they were good-looking and temperamental, and it was rare to see such a good one in Kyoto. After learning etiquette, he praised them for learning quickly and comprehending. Tang Han was used to seeing this kind of sycophancy, but she was not very happy, and her face was still pretending. Those two are very happy, and people think they are really good when they praise a few words.

Tang Han went to make beads in the shop every morning and returned late, she didn't ask others to help, and she sat for a few days in a row and just dared to do it on the first day. Tang Han held the bead flower he made and sighed: "It's really not easy, hey, do it yourself." Fortunately, it's a good time to officially promote the shop tomorrow. ”

The day of entering the palace has arrived, and her mother, Aunt Zhang, is more anxious than Tang Han. Tang Han was still sleeping, so she came over. As soon as he entered the house, he shouted, "Jin, don't sleep, get up quickly." ”

Tang Han was sleeping Zhengxiang was woken up: "Mother, it's still early?" You're up too early. ”

"It's early, you have to dress up and have breakfast."

"There's enough time, I'll sleep a little longer."

"That's not good, they're all up, you should get up and get dressed up. Ah Green, go and bring your young lady's newly made clothes. ”

Ah Lu, who was waiting on the side, immediately responded when he heard the order: "Yes, auntie." ”

Aunt Zhang pulled Tang Han's arm, Tang Han sat up, her mind was not clear, Ah Lu dressed her and then her shoes. Then he washed his hands and face, and after wiping his face, Tang Han was pulled to sit in the bronze mirror and comb his hair. Today is the bun that her mother Aunt Zhang personally combed Tang Han for, which is different from usual. It's usually very casual, but this time it's combed according to the standards of everyone's young lady. Tang Han took out the beaded flowers she made, and her mother put them on for her.

"Well, it's good-looking, let's comb your hair and rub it with powder."

Ah green gave a layer of powder, and someone brought breakfast to the house. Tang Han picked up the breakfast on the table and ate it, while his mother and Ah Lu watched from the side.

"Mother, you can eat too."

"Eat it, I've eaten it all."

"Then I'll eat it."

Tang Han killed a bowl of porridge with three strikes and five divisions, as well as two steamed buns and some pickles. She stretched out her hand to grab a fritter to eat, but her mother stopped her. "Okay, don't eat, wait a minute, it's too full."

"Mother, I'm not full yet."

"Girls eat less, they can't be too full, they are hungry and their brains are bright."

"Mother, it's good to eat my brain."

"There are a lot of delicious foods in the palace. The visitor withdrew breakfast. ”

Tang Han pulled his mother's arm: "Mother, although there are so many people in the palace who say that things are good, I can't eat there regardless of my image." ”

"Yes, you also reminded me, you can't take Yahuan with you when you enter the palace this time, you have to pay attention to no one by your side, you can do whatever you see Han Ningxue and Han Wenya doing, if you don't know, just ask."

"Mother, I know."

"Go and wipe the rouge and get ready to go."

Tang Han packed up his life, Ah Lu went outside first to see if they were all ready, Ah Lu ran back: "Miss, eldest lady and third miss are also ready, Mrs. said you can go." ”

"Well, let's go."

The carriage was already waiting at the gate, this time it was the three of them who entered the palace, and even the Qian family could only be sent to the gate of the palace. The people in the house were a little worried, and when they left, Han Yu said that the affairs in the palace should be according to the rules, and they must not come nonsense. If you have something to find the Queen Mother, people in the palace must pay attention to proportions when they talk more. The three sisters said that they would follow their father's teachings, and the carriage set off in the direction of the capital. Along the way, Qian said: "The three of you represent the glory of our house, and I can't accompany you this time if you want to unite in case of trouble, but the Queen Mother will not treat you badly if she has a good relationship with your grandmother." ”

"Yes, Mother."

"It's time for you to go."

Tang Han got out of the carriage and looked at the high palace wall, how many people wanted to enter this palace, and how many people desperately wanted to come out, this palace was like a cage.

The guards at the gate of the palace blocked the way, Han Ningxue handed out the invitation of the Queen Mother, and the guards let her go. The coachman drove the carriage to the outside of the Queen Mother's palace and stopped, where the palace maid was waiting. They got out of the carriage, and the palace maid greeted them and saluted: "It's the three young ladies of the Han family, right?" ”

"Yes."

"Please come with me, the Queen Mother is inside."

The three of them walked into the house, and the Queen Mother sat on the soft couch. There were a few young ladies sitting in the room, and Tang Han didn't know each other. They knelt down and saluted.

"The Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an."

"Okay, get up and sit down. It's been a long time since I've seen you all this old, and your grandmother often tells me about you. ”

"Thank you, Empress Dowager."

After the three of them sat down, the Queen Mother asked, "Which of you is Ning Xue?" ”

Han Ningxue stood up: "The Queen Mother is a courtier. ”

The Queen Mother nodded: "Well, it's really everyone's beautiful demeanor." After the Queen Mother finished speaking, the ladies sitting on the side all looked at Han Ningxue, some with comparison in their eyes, and some with ridicule.

The Queen Mother pointed to Tang Han and Han Wenya again: "The second and third are also very good, your grandmother is really blessed." ”

Han Wenya was the first to answer: "The Queen Mother is a blessed person."

"Hehe, don't just sit and drink tea and eat snacks, how about tasting the master's craftsmanship."

"The one in the Queen Mother's Palace must be the best."

"Dim sum is really exquisite, isn't it?"

Everyone slapped the sycophants to death, Tang Han remained silent and picked up a piece of pastry and tasted it, not to mention that it was really delicious.

After she finished eating, another palace maid came in and brought a woman, who was also wearing plain clothes and a simple hair ornament on her head. The long one is beautiful, fresh and refined. She walked in and knelt down: "The courtier He Ruge greets the Queen Mother." ”

Tang Han was still leisurely, but when she heard the name, she suddenly cheered up, she looked at her carefully, it turned out that she was the heroine in the book, it turned out that Xiao Yixuan liked such a woman. The father of the heroine in the book was also in the field before, and she was only recently transferred back to Kyoto, and she was the only girl among the two brothers in the middle school. Gu Shu said that she was a talented woman who often discussed some things about the court with her father.

The Queen Mother asked He Ruge to sit down, Tang Han looked around and found that everyone also looked at He Ruge. Especially Han Ningxue may be because He Ruge is good-looking, and she looks temperamental. A few young ladies came one after another, and the Queen Mother took everyone out of the house and into the garden. The queen also came, and she looked like a noblewoman when she was dressed. At this time, the weather was sunny and sunny, and the Queen Mother proposed that the young ladies write a poem with the theme of flowers. Tang Han complained in his heart, isn't this just to see who has the talent to choose concubines for the princes.

The ladies were all given pen, ink, paper, and inkstones, and everyone sat there thinking, Tang Han was so difficult as a modern person, but she also had to pretend to think hard. Someone had already picked up the pen and started writing, and Han Wenya quietly asked, "Second sister, what are you going to write?" ”

"Haven't thought about it yet?"

"What if I can't write? Second sister. ”

"If you can't write it, you can't write it, and you can't torture yourself for a poem."

"But I can't write it, isn't that a shame on my father?"

"You're not alone."

When Mama said that the time was almost up, Tang Han picked up the pen and quickly wrote Wang Anshi's Mei. A few branches of plum Linghan in the corner of the wall opened alone, and the distance knew that the snow was not enough to have a dark fragrance. Mama took the pieces of paper to the queen. There are also many young ladies who have not written it.
