Xianxi Palace is located in the northwest corner of the Forbidden City, south of the Yinghua Palace, which is the residence of the Empress Dowager and the concubine of the Ming Dynasty.

In the fourteenth year of Jiajing, this Xianxi Palace was the Xian'an Palace, and Kangxi had twice forbidden the abolition of the prince here. Later, when it came to Yongzhengye, it was changed to a school palace. Later, in order to celebrate the birthday of his mother who lived in Cining Palace, Lord Qianlong removed the school palace and renamed the old palace Shou'an Palace.

At this time, the Chunxi Hall still exists, and it is not a copy of the later generations. Entered Shou'an. The door is set up with four wooden screen doors to shine on the wall, covered with a yellow glazed tile roof. The first to enter the courtyard of the Chunxi Hall is located here. Needless to mention, this is the place where the Queen Mother treats people, and the huge palace is not used to live in people, but it is just a place for the Queen Mother and the concubines to chat on weekdays.

There is a hall door on the left and right of the hall, which is connected with the courtyard of the second entrance, and after this is the core of the main hall of the middle courtyard Shou'an Palace.

Jian Ning followed Zhengde, peeking all the way. Although I have been to the Forbidden City in my previous life, there are many places in the Forbidden City that are not open to tourists, and it is good to have the opportunity to see the palace architecture.

It's just that the preparation before entering the palace is also quite troublesome. Fortunately, the Queen Mother was summoned temporarily, and she had no seal, so she didn't have to wear complicated dresses anymore, she was only mentioned in etiquette, and then went to a few toilets, which was roughly the same as meeting the Son of Heaven, or even briefer.

When he arrived outside the middle courtyard, he stopped, and Zhengde let people spread the word that he was accompanying Jian Ning, so as not to make this guy nervous, and when he said the wrong thing, he made the queen mother angry.

Her mouth is something she has learned. If you can tolerate yourself, others may not.

Zhu Houzhao was a little worried. I was very worried that when Jian Ning arrived, the donkey's temper would come up again. Hell, when did he worry about a good day? I'm really heartbroken for this Nier, and I don't know when she will be able to restrain her temper and grow up quickly?

Just thinking about it, the people inside passed the word and let Jian Ning and the Son of Heaven in.

Zhengde wanted to pull Jian Ning's hand, but Jian Ning said: "If Your Majesty wants to protect the people's daughter, don't defend it." ”

Zhengde was stunned, and then understood. She hasn't married herself yet, and she will be looked down upon by her mother like this.

After entering the hall, Jian Ning saluted, "The folk girl Jian Ning visited the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother." The Queen Mother Jin'an, the Queen Mother Wan'an. ”

"Get up."

Empress Dowager Zhang raised her hand, "Come on, give me a seat." ”

Jian Ning thanked him and sat down on the small round chair. It's half a fart, which is also the etiquette for dealing with big shots. It's convenient to get up and talk back, and it's respectful.

"Is the Emperor at Mr. Jane's?"

Zhang said with a smile: "It is said that this gentleman is now the emperor's treasure, and this rumor is true." ”

Seeing that Jian Ning was about to get up, she hurriedly said: "Sit, sit, the mourning family has no other meaning, the mourning family called you, first, I want to see you, and secondly, I want to thank you." Since you came to the capital, the baby son of the mourning family has become more sensible, and he also knows how to deal with the government. ”

After she said that, she raised her hand again, "Raise your head and let the mourners see." ”

"Yes."

Jian Ning slowly raised her head, and a beautiful little face appeared in the eyes of Zhang and Xia.

What a woman with a delicate appearance and a dusty demeanor!

There is no worldly atmosphere in this person's eyes, no wonder the Son of Heaven likes it.

Xia Shi looked a little sad.

Although she is beautiful and her father is also a Confucian student, she is not favored by the emperor, and she has no talent to learn, so it is no wonder that the emperor has not touched it, and she is still perfect.

Mo said that he touched her, and there was no chance to talk like this. She didn't know where she didn't fit the eyes of the Son of Heaven, and she was a little annoyed in her heart, but seeing that the Son of Heaven had not favored one person so far, she felt a lot more comfortable.

Now that Jane appeared in front of her, she suddenly realized.

The Son of Heaven doesn't like the woman arranged by the minister and the queen mother, he likes such a dusty woman who doesn't like the world.

Although she was sad, she was not hostile to Jian Ning. I don't like any of the left and right horizontal and vertical Tianzi, not only she, the queen, is sitting on the cold bench, but everyone else is also sitting on the cold bench. The only difference is that if the Son of Heaven has no queen, she will have a hard time as the queen in the future, so the Son of Heaven has someone he likes, and it is the most important thing to be able to give birth to an heir.

She has also figured it out over the years, as long as she is still the queen of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the Son of Heaven has an heir, she will still have to recognize her as a mother in the future.

"What a fairy-like character."

Thinking of this, she exclaimed: "The concubine (the concubine is a life wife) heard before that Mr. Jian has a dusty temperament and looks like a fairy, and the result today is extraordinary." The rarest thing is this rhyme, otherwise there is a little dust in the world, the queen mother, don't you think? ”

Zhang was also amazed. Although this woman's appearance is not bad, there is no shortage of beauties in this palace. But it's not enough for a person to be beautiful, he also has to have charm. This woman's temperament is as light as a chrysanthemum, and a bookish breath is blowing in her face, which is really rare.

It's no wonder that my son likes it, such a fairy-like character, and he is happy when he sees it.

Thinking of this, Zhang smiled and said, "The queen is right. ”

After that, he glanced at the Son of Heaven meaningfully and said, "Zhao'er, are you afraid that the mourning family and the queen will eat Mr.?" You're still following you step by step. ”

Zhu Houzhao blushed and said: "The main reason is that this Nier is stubborn, and her son is afraid that she will be ignorant and bump into his mother, so he will come over and watch her, so that she will not be ignorant." ”

"Look, that's what I'm saying."

Empress Dowager Zhang laughed, "It's like the eyes of the mourning family are so small, do you think Mr. Jian is the same as you?" Can't tell the difference? ”

As she spoke, she beckoned to Jian Ning and said, "The child comes up here, let the mourning family take a look at you." ”

"Yes, Queen Mother."

Jian Ning got up and stepped forward, Zhang grabbed her hand, although she was a little thinner, but this hand was even flesh and bones, and she was blessed.

Looking closer, I found that she was breathing steadily, her eyes were calm, and she couldn't help nodding secretly.

A grass man was calm when he saw that the queen mother could maintain such a calm breath. The son needs such a person to discipline him. She and the courtiers have seen the changes in the Son of Heaven these days, knowing that it is because of this woman, and she is also grateful in her heart.

I folded a few children, and this one was the only one left, and I connived at him. Now that the country has been messed up by him, if you don't clean it up, you will go to see your husband in the future?

Thinking of this, he was even more satisfied, raised his hand and took down the silver-gilt jade-inlaid treasure butterfly hairpin on his head and inserted it on Jian Ning's head, and said, "This hairpin was still made by the emperor at the time. Now that the mourning family is old, it is not appropriate to wear this red, green, and green one, so I will give it to you today. ”

Jian Ning hurriedly said: "This is given to the Queen Mother by the first emperor, and it is the mother's beloved thing, and the people dare not accept it." ”

"Why don't you dare? Zhao'er because you also know that he is progressive, he is the co-master of the world, and he used to do nonsense, but now because you have returned to the right path, don't say that it is a hairpin, even a hundred and thousands of branches can also be bearable. You take it, the first emperor will be happy to do this when he knows it. ”

"Your Majesty is a bold and motivated person, and the women of the people dare not take credit."

Zhu Houzhao's face flushed, and he said, "Queen Mother, what are you talking about?" ”

"The good things you did are still hard to be said by others?!"

Zhang glared at him, and Xia was busy playing a round, "Queen Mother, the concubine also feels that she is in line with her husband, but she came in a hurry today and was not prepared." Only the bracelet given by the queen mother in his hand can still be seen......"

She got up and made a blessing salute, and said with a smile: "The concubine is brave, and I also ask the queen mother to agree to let the daughter-in-law borrow flowers and offer Buddha." ”

"You kid."

Zhang smiled and said, "You have said so, can I disagree?" ”

Jian Ning felt a little inexplicable.

Could it be that he really opened the spirit of a king? How can they all be so kind to themselves? Zhengde must have reached the ears of these two people because he was interested in himself, right? She can understand the attitude of this queen mother, but what the hell is this queen who is so affectionate to her? Could it be some conspiracy?

Don't blame her for thinking too much, after all, there are many such things in the history books, how many of these women in the harem are worry-free? All the worries are dead.

She remained silent, saluted according to etiquette, and accepted the bracelet after some excuse.

"Sir, when will I finish writing that Condor Shooting Book?"

Empress Dowager Zhang took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "You don't know, there are many of your book lovers in this palace, and even the mourning family loves to watch closely." It's just that compared to the eagle shooting, the mourning family loves your cook more Sanxiaochuan. ”

"Doesn't the Queen Mother think that the three smiles are too deviant?"

Jian Ning said: "The scholars and doctors have criticized the three laughs, saying that the three laughs are not peaceful people. ”

"Heh......"

Zhang sneered, "The co-authors are starving to death, and their hearts are full?" What's wrong with these three laughs? I just want to live. Don't say that it was in the Song Dynasty, even if I was in the Ming Dynasty, there were many women who held up the door beams, what was wrong with the left and right being to live? ”

She took a sip of tea and continued: "Besides, Sanxiao is a kind-hearted girl, the host has taken a fancy to her, how can she resist?" How can this woman not love talents? Co-authors can't admire talents if they are low? ”

The concubines in the Ming harem were born very low, like Zhang's Xia family, they were still born in Confucianism, and there was a talented father at home, which was somewhat stained with the fragrance of books. Like some, they are simply illiterate, and their families are ordinary people, like Jiajing's mother, who is really like a shrew, illiterate in big characters, and has no quality.

So these people are very disgusted by others talking about their birth, and they naturally resonate when they see people like Sanxiao.

Jian Ning smiled, "What the Queen Mother said is that it's not wrong to want to live. Even if you are born lowly, you have the right to admire people, Empress Dowager Xie. ”

"Thank me for what?" Zhang's strange.

"The folk girl was also worried before, but now with the words of the Queen Mother, her heart is also determined, and she is not afraid of those gossip."

"Even if you write something that doesn't have a conscience, write more like this in the future, and the mourners like to read it."

"Yes, obey the orders of the Queen Mother."

"Oh, the queen mother has written what you like to watch, what does the son watch? Jian Yunshu, let me tell you, don't think about writing anything else if you don't finish writing the Condor Shooting, otherwise I won't finish with you. ”

"Are there any rules?!"

Zhang glared at Zhengde, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a red mark on his hand, and suddenly became curious, "What's wrong with your hand?!" ”

Zhengde was stunned for a moment, looked down, and smiled, "It's nothing, my son went to tease the puppy, the puppy was very fierce and was bitten." ”
