Chapter 2 Cui Guifei

In the blink of an eye, Lingxi had been in the palace for three days and was arranged in Cui Guifei's Tilting Cloud Palace.

Although Lingxi learned the palace etiquette from the grandmother in the palace for a few days in the uncle's mansion, there is still a lot to learn in the palace.

How to walk, how to talk, how to bow, and how to sleep, all have to be practiced from the beginning.

On this day, Lingxi was taken to the Jiyue Palace, the main hall of the Qianyun Palace, by Xiangyi, the palace maid beside Cui Guifei. Lingxi remembered the etiquette he had learned in the past few days, and he did not squint when he walked, nor did he hear with his ears, nor did he speak.

It wasn't until she was pushed by Xiangyi on the shoulder that Lingxi knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the concubine's red pomegranate skirt, and shouted in a milky voice, "Slave and maid see Guifei Niangniang." ”

"That's Brother Wren, you trained it?" A beautiful female voice came from overhead, soft, and very comfortable to hear.

"Hui Niangniang, it was trained by the slave maid." Lingxi replied in a low voice, controlling the sound brightness just right, so that people could hear it, but not feel that the voice was too high and harsh.

This is not the experience of Lingxi and the two worlds, it is completely the rules of the palace. The palace maid who taught her once warned her that there was once a palace maid who disturbed a certain lady because she spoke too loudly, and even if her tongue was removed.

The rhino spirit didn't know if it was true or not, but he knew that the masters of these palaces were not as gentle and kind as they seemed on the surface. Even if she killed people like hemp in her previous life, if she wants to live safely here with this nine-year-old body now, she can only be careful everywhere.

"Mo Dao is not **, the curtain is swept by the west wind, and people are thinner than yellow flowers......" Cui Guifei picked up the teacup with her slender hand and sipped it lightly, and asked after putting it down, "Have you ever read a book?" ”

Hearing this, Lingxi's heart trembled. This sentence was written by Li Qingzhao, and the original meaning of the word is not wrong, but now that she was born in a small family, how could she know this sentence?

"The slave maid's family is poor, she has not read, she can only train birds." Lingxi replied cautiously.

"Haven't read a book?" Cui Guifei's voice raised slightly, "Then where did you hear this sentence?" ”

Lingxi pressed his face to the ground and didn't dare to raise his head, and said sullenly, "The slave's father trained birds in the uncle's mansion, and the slave and maid learned to train birds from their father since childhood...... The slave maid sometimes followed her father to the garden, and from there she heard ......"

Cui Guifei's good-looking brows furrowed, and she said with some complaints, "Why is the girl sent by the house so careless this time?" I haven't asked a few words, but I'm already timid......"

Xiang just blessed Cui Guifei and said, "Back to Niangniang, this is originally the daughter of a small family, where have you seen anything on the market." Besides, he's only nine years old......"

"When I first entered the palace, I was only eleven or twelve years old, and I wasn't scared like this......

"The mother has a golden body, and she is the eldest granddaughter of the uncle's mansion, this little maid can't even compare to one of your toes."

"That's right, what's wrong with this palace today, I have practiced my ...... compared to this girl for no reason"

Lingxi knelt there and listened to the master and servant, her heart was so hateful that her teeth itched but she didn't dare to say a word, she had been a human being for more than 30 years in her two lives, when had she suffered such a grievance?

But she knew she had to endure it. Because there is no equality in this kind of place, if she wants to live, she must be a slave who doesn't know anything.

Cui Guifei and Xiangcha laughed and talked for a while, and put the conversation on Lingxi's body again, "Your name is Lingxi?" ”

"Back to the mother, the slave is called Lingxi."

Cui Guifei suddenly giggled in a good mood, and at this time, not only her, but even the minions in this Jiyue Hall also laughed.

Lingxi doesn't understand it in his heart, but he understands it in his heart, isn't this name good? Why do these people laugh so much?

Cui Guifei laughed enough, her big eyes squeezed Lingxi's body, and said, "You have entered the palace, and you are the slave in the palace." You must always remember that you came out of your uncle's mansion, and you must not lose your duty. This palace is full of nobles, if you collide with any of them, don't blame the ruthlessness of the palace subordinates. ”

Lingxi raised his head slightly, and knocked down again, "The slave only obeys the teachings of the mother!" ”

Cui Guifei nodded slightly, and the tassel hanging from the phoenix hairpin on her head swayed with her movements, "Ming'er, you are going to the Queen Mother's Palace, and I called you here to tell you a few words." The Queen Mother has been happy and quiet recently, and the wren you raised must not disturb the tranquility of her old man, otherwise you will not be able to cut off ten heads. ”

Lingxi kowtowed again, "The slave has written it down." ”

Cui Guifei gave a lot of instructions in detail, which was nothing more than asking Lingxi to ask the Queen Mother to be in the palace on an errand, and there were many kinds of flattery to the Queen Mother.

Although Lingxi didn't know much about the things in the palace, he also heard some words when he was in the uncle's mansion, saying that the current queen mother didn't like this granddaughter who came out of her brother's mansion.

I don't know how I don't like Lingxi, but I know that my life in the Queen Mother's Palace is probably even more difficult than I imagined.

When Cui Guifei continued to finish speaking, Lingxi's legs were already numb on her knees. When she said 'let's go down', Lingxi collapsed directly on the ground, if it weren't for the fact that she was going to wait in the Queen Mother's palace the next day, I am afraid that the big palace maid in the palace would have beaten her to death with a stick. Even so, Xiang Cha still twisted it fiercely on Lingxi's lower back.

It's already light to screw her, there are rules in the palace that palace maids can't slap their faces when they make mistakes, otherwise I'm afraid she will be slapped in the face.

Lingxi was trembling in pain, but she didn't dare to scream, and was dragged out by a little palace maid who was a little older than her.

The next day is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the palace celebrates, and Cui Guifei gets up early in the morning to dress up. Cui Guifei was dressed in a tender yellow palace dress, which made her face more and more white. The corners of the skirt are embroidered with gold threads with a few bright pink roses with green leaves, which looks vivid and real. The head is combed with the nine mustaches of Wangxian, and in the middle of the head there are three small pink velvet flowers side by side, a little silver ornament, and a hairpin on the left side is an East Pearl phoenix hairpin, and the tassel of the ruby pendant hangs down from the mouth of the phoenix. In a conspicuous position on the right side is a hairpin of the grade of a second-grade concubine. It seems that she is both luxurious and does not lose her position. Since it was winter, Xiangcha put on a water-green fox fur cloak for Cui Guifei to keep out the cold. After cleaning up, Xiangcha wrapped a hand stove with a stove set embroidered with green plum and snow made of incense brocade and handed it to Cui Guifei. Cui Guifei took it in her hand, sat on the sedan chair and rushed to greet the queen, followed by Yun Jieyu, who lived in the same Cloud Palace.

Lingxi did not go with Cui Guifei to greet the queen mother, but was led directly by a small eunuch to the Yongshou Palace where the queen mother lived.

Empress Dowager Cui's Yongshou Palace is located in the East Sixth Palace of the Imperial City, and Cui Guifei's Qianyun Palace is located in the West Sixth Palace. Lingxi carried a bird cage with a blue cage and followed the little eunuch under the pink palace wall of the harem for more than half an hour before arriving at the place.

She was not brought in to see the Empress Dowager Cui, but was arranged by Xiao Xiazi, the apprentice of the eunuch of the head of the Yongshou Palace, in a small cubicle in the Changle Hall of the main hall of the Yongshou Palace.

When Lingxi entered, there was already a person inside.

Lingxi didn't know who it was, but she was the palace maid in this palace. As long as it is a palace maid, she is bigger than herself, so she put the bird cage on the table and blessed the palace maid who was about the same height as herself.

Who knew that the palace maid didn't see it, but snorted with her nose.

Lingxi secretly said that he had not forgotten the rules, so he stood aside and stopped moving. Yu Guang saw that the palace maid in front of him was about the same age as himself, with a fair melon seed face, a pair of big eyes, and a pouting of cherry red mouths, with a proud face. She combed her hair in the same style as herself, and wore the same palace maid dress as herself. The only difference was that she wore a small yellow flower on one side of her head, which was larger than her fingernails.

Lingxi hurriedly lowered his head, low-grade palace maids can't wear flowers, this is the palace rule. She was glad that she had just followed the rules and saluted, otherwise she would have been punished.

"You were sent in by Uncle Guo's mansion to raise birds?" After the little eunuch who led Lingxi in withdrew and closed the door, the palace maid asked proudly.

Lingxi cautiously replied yes.

"What's your name?" The little palace maid asked again.

"The slave's name is Lingxi......"

"Your surname is Ling? My name is Shangguan Yan'er, and my father is the waiter of the Ministry of Rites on the fourth grade of the dynasty! The palace maid said proudly.

Lingxi was blessed again, and stopped talking. One is that she knows that her family background is not as good as this Shangguan Yan'er, and the other is that she knows that she has many words and ears.

"It's boring to not be able to press a fart with a single bar." When the palace maid saw that Lingxi did not speak to her, she walked to the chair and sat down.

At this time, Lingxi found that Shangguan Yan'er was holding a pure white kitten in his arms, and the cat's eyes were still looking at the bird cage that Lingxi put on the table.

Lingxi was shocked and hurriedly protected around the cage. Birds are most afraid of cats, and the trained wren brother will lose his voice when he is frightened by the cat!

Shangguan Yan'er saw that the rhino spirit looked vigilant, laughed loudly, and said, "Look at what scares you, sooner or later I will catch your bird for Ling'er as rations~"
