Chapter 257: The Begging Festival

The queen mother glanced at him angrily, "Every time I know to use this palace as a shield." Why did this palace marry such a husband as you? ”

A certain gentleman was disgusted, but he still came up shamelessly, "Because I'm good." If you miss me, there is nowhere to find it with a lantern under the sky. ”

Xiao Ruyue's face flushed, "Don't be ashamed!" ”

"What's shame? What if I scare my queen away? ”

"......" Xiao Ruyue admitted that he couldn't say that he couldn't talk about Laipi, so he didn't have the anger to stuff the scroll into his hand, "Rest early, your lord was harmed by me and relied on this morning's early dynasty, but you can't rely on tomorrow's morning dynasty anymore." ”

"Tomorrow morning, you will accompany me." Yu Wenhe squeezed his eyebrows, and there was something in his words.

In the words of the queen's mother: It is clearly ill-intentioned and ill-intentioned.

"Then what does the king think, what kind of identity should this palace use to go to the court?" Xiao Ruyue's dark eyes are cunning and smart.

"What is this......" Yu Wenhe looked at her meaningfully, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a wicked smile, "It depends on your performance tonight." ”

As he spoke, he threw Xiao Ruyue on the bed.

"Ahh Yu Wenhe, you are a Laipi...... Hmmm......"

Well, don't look at it.

Shaw House Study.

Xiao Jingyu looked at the exquisitely carved red sandalwood box in his arms, and his brows were very tangled.

The king told him that this thing must be kept well, and it must not appear in front of people when the time comes. Such a heavy responsibility for the custody of this thing fell on his shoulders, and he could not afford to miss it.

Thinking of the king's entrustment to him, Xiao Jingyu's heart sank, stood up with the delicately carved red sandalwood box, and walked to the bookshelf by the wall.

After making sure that no one was approaching outside the study, he saw that he started to grope for a moment between the cabinets of books in the Four Books and Five Classics, and seemed to have touched something, and then saw the bookcase open to both sides, revealing a door in the middle.

Xiao Jingyu cautiously glanced back and walked into the small door.

The door closes automatically.

After a short time, the door opened again, and Xiao Jingyu walked out of it, empty-handed, and arched his hands in the direction of the imperial city, "Please rest assured, minister, you will not fail in your mission." ”

Early the next morning, Yu Wenhe got up early in the morning, and she really wouldn't miss today's court, but Xiao Ruyue was still sleeping, and no one dared to disturb her, so she didn't have to go to the morning court no matter what her status.

After Yu Wenhyuk changed his clothes and washed up and eaten, he left.

Before leaving, he instructed Yinlin: "Wait until the time is ripe and then untie the acupoint for Niangniang." ”

Yinlin was stunned and hurriedly responded.

Do you want to sleep in the mother's hole now?

When it was time to arrive, Yin Lin unraveled Xiao Ruyue's acupoint according to her words, and she woke up in a daze, and she was confused for a while before she was completely awake.

She glanced at the sky and looked at Yinlin: "Your master ordered the sleeping hole of the palace?" ”

“…… Yes, sis. Nothing can be hidden from your eyes. ”

"No need to pat me on the back." Xiao Ruyue said lightly, stretching slowly, "Let's pass the meal, prepare to leave the palace later." ”

Yinlin hesitated for a moment, "Niangniang is going to ......"

"Wang Shangshu's Mansion."

Yinlin's face was a little unnatural, but he bowed and retreated, without asking more.

She had just gone out when the green coat came in.

While waiting for Xiao Ruyue to change and freshen up, Green Yi chatted with Xiao Ruyue: "Niangniang, early this morning, the palace is talking about Ye Guifei again." The slave maid went to the imperial garden early in the morning to pick morning dew, and heard a little palace maid talking about it, and Ye Guifei didn't know whether she had offended the queen or really done something wrong. This slave and maid were angry, and they went up and taught her a lesson. ”

Xiao Ruyue laughed, "You also believe her nonsense." ”

"Mother, that's not what I said." Green Yi retorted solemnly, "It's clear that Ye Guifei intends to murder you, this matter is seen by everyone, and there is even someone to speak for her." These speakers are either stupid, or they have accepted the benefits of others and wantonly spread rumors. If the slaves and maids weren't angry, wouldn't they think that the people in our Feng Palace were easy to bully. ”

What Green Yi said was the Tao, but Xiao Ruyue didn't know how to refute it.

After thinking about it, he asked, "Then was she convinced by your scolding in the end?" ”

"Nope." The green clothes wilted all of a sudden, "It would be nice if the slave maid had half the majesty and momentum of Sister Yinlin." The slave and maid spoke, and the dead girl dared to talk back and mutter, but it can be seen that Sister Yinlin is as well-behaved as a kitten, and she doesn't dare to come out. Isn't this a blatant attempt to deceive good and fear evil...... No, I'm not saying that Sister Yinlin is a wicked person. ”

The little face with a big palm is frustrated.

Green Yi said quite unwillingly, and said, "That little palace maid clearly showed that she was instigated to take the benefits of others, wantonly framed the mother, and dared to talk nonsense." She deserves it. ”

Xiao Ruyue shook her head and laughed, took the comb from her hand, and combed the ends of her hair by herself.

Green Yi came back to his senses in a daze, and found that he had lost his comb, and was busy grabbing it, "Niangniang, don't, the king will be angry when he sees it." ”

"Where did the palace maid last go this morning?" Xiao Ruyue dodged her hand and looked straight into the bronze mirror.

Green Yi met her gaze and immediately dodged it, "Finally...... This, that palace maid, she ...... in the end"

"I was kicked out of the palace by the rod forty." Xiao Ruyue took the conversation for her.

Green Yi nodded and lowered his head silently, "Niangniang is really a good blue heart, and she will be successful in her guess." ”

It's not hard to guess. According to the temperament of the king, that person dared to talk bad about the palace behind his back at this moment, and the king punished her with a cane and forty expulsions from the palace. ”

"Mother, why do you ...... anything Got it? She didn't even say that it was an order from the king.

Could it be that Sister Yinlin said that she leaked her mouth? Look at the appearance of Yinlin's sister when she left, and recently the whole person also looks like she has lost her soul.

"Green Yi, what delicious food did you prepare for this palace this morning?" Just as the girl in green was thinking to herself, Xiao Ruyue interrupted her thoughts.

She said "eh" and responded: "I prepared a plate of egg dumplings this morning, and the king has already used some of them earlier, but the slave maid left you more than half of them, and you are full." ”

Xiao Ruyue: "Well, let's go and bring it." Since I have you one, the dining room is trouble-free. ”

The green clothes thanked the mother for her praise, waited for Xiao Ruyue to comb her hair bun, changed her clothes, and happily retreated.

When I went out, I was still muttering, "I have to study a few more dishes for tomorrow." ”

Sometimes she really envies the simplicity of the green clothes.

After a while, Green Yi happily came to her egg dumplings, and when she lifted the lid, she smelled the fragrance coming to her nose.

It is really a rare delicacy in the world.

The craftsmanship of the green clothes is getting better and better.

Xiao Ruyue used most of her breakfast, and Caiyin came in from outside to report, "Niangniang Wang Jieyu is here." ”

Wang Jieyu, Wang Yingyue.

Xiao Ruyue's chopsticks paused, and ordered: "Announce it." ”

Wang Jieyu entered and bowed first, and waited until Xiao Ruyue called her softly: "Wang Jieyu, get up." She got up.

Today's Wang Jieyu did not come empty-handed, she still held a booklet in her hand, which seemed to be the account books of various palaces. She saw that Xiao Ruyue was still eating, but she was a little uncomfortable.

"Is it not the right time for the concubine to come and disturb the mother's meal."

"Wang Jieyu said if she had something to say, it's okay. It's the palace that gets up late, and I don't do your business. Xiao Ruyue took a sip of bird's nest porridge and motioned for her to sit down opposite.

Wang Jieyu was not easy to refuse, put down the booklet, and said: "Queen Mother, it will be the Begging Festival in two days, and the concubine can't make up her mind, so she will come to ask you for an idea." ”

Xiao Ruyue: "Oh? Let's talk about it. ”

"When the concubine went to Luhua Hall to meet the Empress Dowager before, her old man said that when it was customary to beg for a good day, the palace was to do it, and it was lively. But now that the King of Wei rebelled and the Tatars came, the concubines thought that it seemed inappropriate to hold a banquet at this time. But if it weren't like in previous years, inviting all the daughters of the family to the palace to beg for a good time, it seems that something is missing. ”

Wang Jieyu was very distressed, and as she spoke, she opened the booklet in her hand and handed it to Xiao Ruyue, "Queen Mother, please take a look." The monarch has always advocated frugality, the palace has never been extravagant and luxurious, the accounts of the inner court are here, and the concubines are worried, so they specially come to ask the mother to decide. ”

Xiao Ruyue finished eating, put down the chopsticks and freed her hand to take the account book, Wang Yingyue realized that she was acting recklessly, and quickly stood up, "Niangniang forgives her sins, and the concubine is rude." ”

"It's okay, sit down."

Xiao Ruyue slowly flipped through the account books, smiling lightly. Yu Wenhe's harem is indeed not too rich, and the treasury of the previous dynasty has always been just right, and I don't know where his money is spent. But the only thing I know is that he doesn't like extravagance.

After Xiao Ruyue flipped through the account books, she pondered for a long time, and then made a decision, "Wang Jieyu, the Empress Dowager and her old man said well, in previous years, the palace had to hold a lively and lively begging festival, but now it is a big war, and the begging festival is not a big festival, so it will be exempted." ”

"The Empress Dowager, her old man asked......" Wang Yingyue looked embarrassed, and looked back at the lotus fragrance behind her.

After many things, Hexiang no longer dared to be disrespectful to the queen, and since she entered the door, she served behind Wang Jieyu with low eyebrows, and when she looked at her, she didn't know what to say.

"Wang Jieyu actually doesn't need to feel embarrassed." Xiao Ruyue smiled.

"What does the queen mean?"

Xiao Ruyue smiled mysteriously, "Wang Jieyu, think about it, in previous years, the Empress Dowager was in a hurry to plan for the Begging Festival, do you know why?" ”

"In previous years, on the Begging Festival, the Empress Dowager will definitely invite the daughters of all the provinces in the capital to beg for coincidence together. The concubines are...... Ah, I see. As she spoke, Wang Jieyu suddenly remembered something, but smiled.

Xiao Ruyue looked at her and tacitly agreed.

Green Yi looked at it blankly, what was it like this?

She didn't understand that in previous years, the Empress Dowager asked for a begging festival, which was nothing more than to allow Yu Wenhe to expand the harem. And now, Yu Wenhe has this person who he wants to be a couple for the rest of his life, how can he still arrange anything?
