Chapter 1: Worship (1)
After Lin Yuan cried, the days had to go on. Ziyouge said to Tuoba Qi that this time he wouldn't die so young. This time he and his life will be fine, very good. Those "bad guys" "sold" their mother and son for the fourth time because they wanted to use this fourth perfect life to compensate for the previous three lives.
Tuoba Qi's child said: "Mother, in fact, every time I want to live better, I really try my best." I also wanted to be sold so quickly, but in the end I didn't live long. Mother, will we have a hard time this time? I've known for a long time that this isn't a good place. ”
"No, not this time." Lin Yuan was very firm: "Qiqi, no matter how difficult it is, we will have a good life." Kiki won't die, and neither will her mother. ”
As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something. Lin Yuan hugged him tightly and said, "Qiqi, listen to my mother now." Although you are already five years old and can speak, you can only speak in front of your mother. In front of others...... Well, so be it. You say one more word every day, and you can only say one more. Tomorrow, my mother will go out with you, let's go to see your father, and you will call the word father, okay? ”
"Okay." Tuoba Qi nodded: "The day after tomorrow, do I call the word mother?" ”
"No, shout father, two words." Lin Yuan pursed her lips: "Qiqi, you are very smart, you will know what to say and do every day." ”
"I know! Because if we say or do something wrong, we will die again. Tuoba Qi's eyes were very focused: "Actually, I know that I was stoned to death that time, because we said the wrong thing and accidentally revealed the family's property." ”
"Yes, you can't be wrong." Lin Yuan wanted to cry again. It turned out that all the hardships she had experienced in the harem of the Qin State for three years were not worth mentioning in front of Qiqi at all. She doesn't remember the reincarnation of three lives, but Kiki remembers everything. He remembered his cherished loved ones, but he also remembered the cruelty of everything.
A few days later, there was the good news that the six princes had spoken. Unlike the ambiguity of the five princes at the beginning, the first words of the six princes were very clear, which surprised the emperor and the queen mother. The Queen Mother also said: "The mourning family has long said that many children are just late in their understanding, and such children will be smarter when they grow up." ”
Lin Yuan smiled and said nothing, I don't know where the Queen Mother heard this crooked reasoning.
Because of the "sudden enlightenment" of Tuoba Qi's children, Tuoba Hong actually stayed in Lin Yuan's palace for ten consecutive days. Deep winter is approaching, and at the beginning of November, there was a heavy snow again, and the scarlet building was warm, singing and dancing, and envying others. At the same time, the degraded Xu accidentally fell ill with a cold.
She was ill for more than ten days, and naturally no one paid attention to her, not even a medical officer. Lin Yuan, who was in charge of the palace, didn't even know the news, until the palace maid who was close to the Xu family sneaked out of the palace where she was grounded and made trouble in front of the queen of Fengyi Palace, kneeling down and begging the queen to send a medical officer to show the Xu family, if it was too late, it would be too late.
The queen's fetus was unstable and she didn't even dare to get out of bed, and she didn't have any psychological understanding, so she sent the palace people to push the matter to Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan didn't know what to do about it, if he saw that the Xu family was dead, he didn't know if the emperor would blame him in the future. saved Xu's life, but he was even more afraid that the emperor would blame him.
I told the emperor about it.
As a result, Tuoba Hong didn't even move his eyebrows when he heard it, and said coldly: "It's just the wind and cold, and you dare to make trouble in front of the queen!" The edict killed the palace maid who risked death to protect the lord, and hated: "The Xu family is guilty and does not repent, but in the grounding, he ignored the strict palace ban and let the palace people out of the palace without authorization, and disturbed the queen's crime is unforgivable!" Immediately demote her to a concubine and move to the cold palace! ”
In this way, Xu, who was taken into the cold palace in a serious illness, died of illness in just a few days.
When her body was wrapped in a straw mat and transported from the corner gate to the mass grave in the back mountain, Lin Yuan exhaled softly. Sure enough, as conjectured, Tuoba Hong did not forgive her at all because of Xu's family background and previous affection.
I don't know what will become of this harem after Xu's death. Xiao Qi grew up day by day, and more and more people would see him as a threat to seize the heir, King Zhao lost his mother again, but the fifth prince also grew up quickly. Thousands of miles away in the south of the Yangtze River, there are three princes and four princes......
No matter what lies ahead, there is no fear.
Xu's death in the harem did not even stir up a little wave, but the expansion of the splendid Jade Zhao Palace attracted a lot of discussion, seeing that the luxury is no less than the main hall of the Lintoe Palace, the concubines were envious and frightened by Lin Yuan's favor. According to the emperor's orders, Lin Yuan was picked up by the Shanggong Bureau on the first day of December and moved from Huayang Palace to the newly renovated Yuzhao Palace.
The Yuzhao Palace is built on the waterfront of the Taiye Pond, but the flower garden in it is not dominated by hibiscus lotus, but a piece of plum forest. Because of the emperor's thoughtfulness, the plum garden around the Qianjing Moon Pavilion was moved over, and it was winter when Lin Yuan lived in, and the plum trees in it were in full bloom, and the scenery was so beautiful that it was astonishing.
If it's just gorgeous, it's just that, what catches the eye is that when the Yuzhao Palace was expanded, only the main hall was built, and the side hall was not built, and there was no room for others to live together except for a Hui Zhaoyuan Niangniang. The women of the Great Qin harem like luxurious and bright bedrooms, but the most favored concubines have the luxury of being able to enjoy a palace alone without having to squeeze grievances with others. The Yuzhao Palace given to Lin Yuan by Tuoba Hong is not as grand as the Linzhi Palace, and in fact, the Linzhi Palace is not as grand as the Yuzhao Palace.
In this way, Lin Yuan moved in in in a beautiful way. Chu Huashang is already more than once divided, I don't know how much, I don't dare to come out to make waves when I know this, Concubine Jing has always been virtuous, on the day of the relocation, she specially prepared a night banquet to see Lin Yuan off, and held her hand and said reluctantly: "In the past two years, the two of us have lived together, and we are better than sisters, but I didn't expect you to move to the palace so soon, and I thought of my sister in the future, but don't forget to go back to Huayang Palace often." "Ouch" laughed again, and said: "Sister should congratulate you, with your own palace, you are really the main mother." ”
Who wouldn't be able to act on the spot, Lin Yuan also looked like she was sorry for others, and shook hands with Concubine Jing and talked for a long time.
The relocation of the palace went very smoothly, and Chinese New Year's Eve was approaching in the blink of an eye. Because of the envoys of various countries who came to Qin to worship this year, Tuoba Hong was very attentive, and Lin Yuan and Zhao Zhaoyi, the two harem directors, were even more nervous and started to do it early.
"It is common for envoys to visit abroad, but it is rare to worship." Tuoba Hong and Lin Yuan had breakfast together, and explained in detail: "According to the convention, Mongolia and Qin are on good terms, and their Eagle King will definitely come." The Otsuki clan estimated that they would come with Mongolia, and the Persian kingdom was too far away, although it was written in the national letter that they would come to worship, but they didn't know if there would be a delay on the way. When I was the crown prince, I met Goryeo and Dali to come to Qin to worship, at that time it was the queen mother who took care of everything, if you still don't understand anything, go to the godmother. ”
Lin Yuan said yes, I have to say that this work is really a bit difficult, I have never practiced in my previous life - even if I have seen a lot of winds and waves as a senior executive in my previous life, she has never been in contact with the intersection between countries in political affairs.
So in the next few days, she went to Changle Palace, laughed and accompanied the Queen Mother to ask for knowledge, and borrowed a large stack of historical books from the imperial study of Jianzhang Palace to learn the history of various countries. After being so busy for a long time, one day I suddenly found that Zhao Zhaoyi was very familiar with the etiquette of Goryeo, and when I asked, I realized that her grandfather was actually Zhao Lun Zhao Ge, who was the envoy of the third class thirty years ago and sent to the Six Kingdoms.
Lin Yuan suddenly felt that she was begging for food with a golden bowl, threw away the book, and dragged Zhao Zhaoyi to Yuzhao Palace.
More than 20 days have passed, Lin Yuan and Zhao Zhaoyi have been busy, carefully settling everything in the palace, but they are still very nervous when it comes to the end. For the sake of worship, they even confused the harem family banquet, and ordered that "everything will go according to last year's regulations", and asked the Shanggong Bureau to copy the pomp and circumstance made by Concubine Jing last year.
At the state banquet of the previous dynasty, according to the system, only the concubines of the harem who were above the fourth rank could attend. At that time, the large-scale Jiaotai Palace was naturally not repaired, and Tuoba Hongda waved his hand and ordered a banquet to be held directly in the Jianzhang Palace, which made Lin Yuan even more bitter, all the state banquets were held in the Jiaotai Palace in the past, and this time the place was changed, it was even more difficult to learn from the previous experience.
Finally, in the fireworks in the sky, Lin Yuan, who was sitting on the right side of the emperor and waiting for the envoys of various countries to enter the hall and bow down, was beating like a drum.
At this time, Tuoba Hong had already ignored the concubines, and there was a faint flame jumping in his starry eyes, staring at the palace gate. The seat next to him was vacant, and Empress Xiao was supposed to attend on such occasions, but Xiao Yueyi had a fetal movement yesterday, and she couldn't even get out of bed today. So he had no choice but to vacate the queen's seat, and ordered Concubine Jing, the highest-ranking concubine, to lead the harem ladies and foreign wives, and ordered Zhao Zhaoyi and Lin Yuan to serve by his side to take care of the overall situation.
After a while, the rumble of leather boots approached. Listening to this rude voice, the relatives in the audience couldn't help frowning slightly. Lin Yuan glanced at the emperor suspiciously—didn't these envoys come to worship the Qin State?
Why dare you be rude in front of Emperor Qin.
The curtain of the door moved, and several chamberlains bowed down and lifted the curtains, and they saw a group of courtiers dressed in luxurious and exotic costumes rushing in. The one who started was wearing a dark gold silk densely woven embroidered pattern armor, with a thin face but a pair of cold eyes like a cold pool. He calmly glanced at the people in the hall, his eyes flashing blue.
Lin Yuan was taken aback when he looked at him, and almost exclaimed. Many people in the hall knew him, and the hall was full of gasps for a while. Tuoba Hong smiled lightly and said to him: "The Great Khan came from afar and didn't say hello!" I thought that this time the Mongol envoy would still be the Eagle King! ”
