On the day of her birthday, Su Ying was aroused by Duan Niang early, and sat in front of the dressing mirror with sleepy eyes and let them toss, Duan Niang clearly said: "Don't dress too grandly today", but she still told Gong E to put on layers of clothes for her, and her head was full of bright and heavy hairpins, she wanted to cry and look at Duan Niang without tears: "Isn't this grand enough?" ”

Duan Niang tied her clothes and said, "The Queen Mother wants to be ordered to worship today, so naturally it should be more appropriate." ”

She then remembered that this was her first birthday after becoming the queen mother, and it should be extraordinarily grand, and the wives would wait in the main hall at three o'clock in the hour, and her mother was also among them, and Duan Niang also told her that now she is the queen mother, but after the worship, she can stay with her mother to talk, which is really good. In the past, when I was the queen, I gave a banquet in the palace every Chinese New Year's Eve, although I could also see my mother, but I only glanced at it in a hurry, and now although I can only stay with my mother for a few hours, it is really much better than those five years. Her heart was very excited, and she didn't feel sinking when her head was full of pearls.

The women waited in front of the main hall early, and when they saw Su Ying's Luan, they knelt down respectfully: "The Queen Mother is safe." ”

These women are really amazing, kneeling down and talking in unison, as if they were carved out of a mold. She found her mother in a group of lifeworthy women and winked at her, but she still stood up straight, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

The women came forward one by one to bow and offer congratulatory gifts, Su Ying listened to the female official reading the jade plate of the woman on the side, and was very curious about Sun Miaoyi's mother. Recently, she has become closer and closer to Sun Miaoyi, and asked yesterday: "It is rumored that your mother is very... Guo Yi, if you have a slight disappointment, you will beat and scold Lord Sun, but is it true? ”

Sun Miaoyi was stunned, and told her with a smile: "Actually, it's not as powerful as rumored, if my mother is angry, I let my father think about it in the courtyard, at most... At most, pluck Daddy's beard, and after a while, it will be dissipated. ”

When she heard this, she couldn't help but reach out and pull her hair, and pulled off one of them hard, so painful that she grinned at it, a hair was still like this, it was really hard to imagine the tragic situation of Lord Sun, this Mrs. Sun really deserved her reputation, she was really fierce, I don't know what she looks like.

When Mrs. Sun stepped forward, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, this legendary spicy woman looked very elegant and dignified. The lady Sun saluted respectfully, and presented a pair of hairpin rings, one of which was very eye-catching, and she couldn't help but think with evil taste, I don't know what kind of interesting scene it would be to wear this Huasheng on the battered hair of Old Master Sun.

It wasn't until the end of the day that the last woman retreated, Duan Niang instructed the female official to send them out, and led the mother and sister-in-law into the inner hall. ”

She couldn't see anyone crying, not to mention that this person was still her mother, holding her mother's hand to say something, she finally stopped crying: "My mother hasn't had a good life for five years, look at you, let my mother take a look, I have really grown up and grown into a good-looking girl." ”

She smiled and said: "Where am I good-looking, my mother has never seen Zhang Jieyu and Mrs. Langya in the past, that is the beauty, and the two Jieyu who entered the palace not long ago are very good-looking." ”

"No matter how beautiful they are, how can they compare to my daughters." The mother-in-law seemed to have thought of something, her expression darkened, and the eldest sister-in-law hurriedly stepped forward and said: "There is another good thing to tell the Queen Mother, the third brother and sister were unwell a few days ago, so I asked the doctor to come and take a look, saying that I was happy." ”

"Got a little doll?" Su Ying was very happy when she heard it: "I went to see Mrs. Langya's little princess a few days ago, she looks very similar to her mother, and the third sister-in-law is so beautiful, the little doll born must be very beautiful." ”

She talked to her mother for a while, and left them for lunch, and before parting, her mother repeatedly advised: "Your father and I have spoiled you since childhood, and most of your brothers and sisters-in-law are used to you. She agreed, and her mother glanced at her with a smile and told her: "I got up early in the morning to make some pastries and bring them to the palace lady in your palace." Just leaving, she hurriedly asked Gong E to come up with a food box, which was full of glutinous rice cakes, osmanthus cakes, and water chestnut leaf cakes... They are all her favorite pastries, the sweet and silky aroma is very good, her heart is a little sweet and a little sour, and she doesn't know why, she shed a few tears stupidly.

The feast at night is set up in the Penglai Hall next to the Taiye Pool, the lotus flowers bloom just right, like a piece of Danyun Tongxia, sandwiched with the green lotus leaves, floating on the water in a staggered manner, reflecting the whole Taiye Pond rippling, the Penglai Hall is spacious and bright, the treasure top eaves are gorgeous, the flying teeth and bucket arches, standing near the lake, the dancers are dancing at the water's edge, and they are a "Lingbo" of the new row of the pear garden. The sound of the orchestral silk bamboo is just like a pair of gentle jade hands, brushing up the thin silk yarn on the dancing girl's body, which is very pleasing to the eye.

After "Ling Bo" ended, Wu Yuehua got up and toasted a glass of wine: "The concubine congratulates the Queen Mother on her birthday." ”

Su Yingben looked down at the thousand-petal lotus fugue carved on the floor tiles at her feet, and only then did she come back to her senses when she called her, several palace ladies held the trays and lined them up one by one, and uncovered the red cloth covered with their heads one by one, Hetian jade inlaid with gold jumped off, and the glass dragon inlaid with beads collar... There are some kinds of jewelry, but the last tray is a light smoke like a gauze tent, embroidered with complicated patterns, take a closer look, those patterns are actually composed of large and small "longevity" words, Wu Yuehua respectfully saluted, said: "The concubine embroidered a hundred longevity treasure tent for the queen mother, may the queen mother be blessed." ”

Amazing, really powerful, Su Ying only had this thought in her mind.

This Wu Yuehua entered the palace for less than even a month, and he actually embroidered such an exquisite curtain. She is not good at female popularity, but she can also see that Wu Yuehua's embroidery is very outstanding. Although the many words "longevity" look a little weird, this piece of heart is really rare. Su Ying was thinking about what kind of response to give, Wu Yuehua had already stepped forward with something in her own hand, and Ying Ying bowed: "The concubine copied the "Myoho-renge-kyo Sutra" for the Queen Mother, and I hope the Queen Mother will not dislike it." ”

“…… Mourning home... The mourning family likes it very much. Su Ying took a thick pile of scriptures duciously: "The "Myoho-renge-kyo" is deep-rooted and distant, subtle and supreme, and the mourning family has recently cultivated their self-cultivation, and this sutra is really... It's really..."She really can't make it up, alas, if Duan Niang is sent to Wu Yuehua's palace, it really complements each other, Wu Yuehua likes to copy books, Duan Niang likes to guard people to copy books, it can really be described as a similar temperament, she is thinking nonsense, inadvertently glanced at Pei Zhao, he looked at her with a playful smile, she glared at him hatefully, turned her head to Wu Yuehua and showed a smile that she thought was very dignified: "Wu Jieyu has a heart, hurry up and enter the table." ”

Wu Yuehua just sat down, Sun Miaoyi also smiled and offered a congratulatory gift, a nine-link of agate, a pair of jade chess pieces, a set of exquisite chimes the size of a wine cup, and many gadgets she couldn't name, she really deserved to be the person she fancied, and the things she sent were in line with her heart, she was afraid that Wu Yuehua would be unhappy, so she had to order someone to put these things away with Wu Yuehua's congratulatory gift, and winked at Sun Miaoyi.

The banquet in the palace has always been less than half of the night, but this time, under Pei Zhao's instructions, it ended early before the unitary, and everyone retreated one by one after saluting, Duan Niang led people to prepare the honor guard, and the whole hall was empty. She rubbed her sore neck and yawned, "You should rest early." ”

Pei Zhao looked at her and laughed lowly: "Go back and rest?" Don't you want to go..."

"Huh?" Su Ying was slightly stunned by what he said, and then suddenly realized.

This day was so tiring that she forgot all about such a major event as leaving the palace! Fortunately, Pei Zhao was really righteous and wanted to remind her. Immediately hurriedly said: "I think about it!" Do you want to go now? ”

"You go back to the dormitory to change your clothes first, and I will wait for you in the pavilion in front of your palace."

She hurriedly agreed, and suddenly thought of a trouble: "How can I tell Duan Niang?" ”

"Not necessarily."

……

The emperor is really the emperor, she racked her brains in the past, and it was difficult to slip out of Duanniang's guard, but tonight she swaggered out of the dormitory, and there was no female official Gong'e to stop her.

At this time, the moon was in the sky, the evening breeze was cool, it was very pleasant, she looked at Pei Zhao's regular clothes, and made a "smart" suggestion: "Why don't you dress up as a little yellow door, let's say that we are ordered to leave the palace and sneak out together?" ”

“……”

"Forget it, you're probably reluctant, even if you pretend to be definitely not like it, you're too tall."

“……”

Danfeng Gate was close at hand, and she came up with another plan: "Why don't you grieve first and let me step on your shoulders and go out over the wall?" Anyway, this kind of thing shouldn't be difficult for you, right? ”

Pei Zhao couldn't cry or laugh: "I wanted to take you out of the palace openly, but since you want to go over the wall, then ......"

"I don't want to!"

“……”

Out of the palace, looking forward along the bluestone road, the faint lights are connected together, and the further you go, the more lively it becomes. The restaurant and tea shop are full of people, the carriages on the street are like flowing water, and the shops and stalls are hung with bright lights, illuminating all kinds of moths, Huasheng, squirts, and makeup...... The bright yellow lights are warm, the aroma of sugar is warm, and the night breeze blows on the face...... The whole night in Kyoto seems to be warm.

Su Ying looked hard with the rattle she had just bought, the rattle was made small, and when she shook it gently, it made a jingling sound, she thought it was interesting, she shook left and right, and she had a good time, anyway, Pei Zhao was protecting her by the side, and she was not afraid of wrestling.

When she came out of the soup cake in the wine shop, she saw a circle of people on the street, she excitedly pulled Pei Zhao to squeeze in, it turned out that someone had set up an archery stall, different targets were placed in front, ten pennies and three arrows, and there was a prize for shooting, but it was just some earrings, hairpin rings, hoops, mud whistles and other things. The young men either wanted to please their sweethearts, or to have fun on their own, and they all went up one by one to try, and some won some small prizes, and more of them shot arrows and even twisted their wrists, but they were not annoyed, and they were still smiling. Fortunately, the target has its back to the moat, otherwise it would be dangerous. Su Ying looked at it vigorously and tugged on Pei Zhao's sleeve: "Won't you try?" ”

Pei Zhao smiled slightly, changed three arrows, and asked, "Which one to shoot?" ”

She looked at the targets, there was a haystack ten paces away, a peach twenty paces away, and the most difficult thing was the three copper plates suspended by red rope a hundred paces away. She hadn't seen Pei Zhao on the battlefield, but she also knew that his archery skills were very good, in the past in Shanglin Yuan, the prince and clan compared arrows, Pei Zhao always won Kuiyuan, so he pointed to the three copper plates and asked in a low voice: "Is it okay?" ”

He didn't speak, he shook the bow in his hand, straightened his back, only heard three "whoosh" sounds, three arrows passed through the hole in the copper plate flatly, the crowd was quiet for a while, I don't know who took the lead and shouted hello, then the earth boiled loudly, and the boss smiled and held a transparent cui Lu over: "Childe is really amazing, this is your thing, and I don't know if your lady still likes it?" ”

The smile on Pei Zhao's face deepened, Su Ying looked around, pointed to a fist-sized cloth tiger, and asked, "I don't want Cui Xuan, can you replace it with that for me?" ”

The boss was stunned, nodded busily, happily took the cloth tiger, and praised her well, what a vision, gentle and demure, beautiful as a flower, she was very happy to hear it, so she also praised the boss: "You are really an honest person who tells the truth." ”

The boss was stunned: "......"

Contentedly holding the tiger out of the crowd, Pei Zhao laughed at her: "Can you see the boss's face?" There are people in the world who don't want things of value. ”

She tugged at the tiger's ears, flicked the small beads set in the tiger's eyes, and said with a smile: "I like this." ”

It was time to play and play, and there were already a lot of people gathered in the place where the trees and flowers were played, Pei Zhao escorted her to the front, and by the light she could see that a few feet away in front of her was a ten-zhang high city wall, which was already rusty, and a furnace was placed at the root of the wall.

There was a sound of fluttering, she hadn't come back to her senses, there was already a fire in front of her, Pei Zhao quickly turned her body to protect her in his arms, and a trace of warmth gradually rose on her body, and she didn't know if it was the firelight, or ...... She turned her head, only to see that the master sprinkled a spoonful of molten iron to the city wall, and the red water droplets the size of pearls "boomed" and exploded into clusters of small golden sparks in the shape of umbrellas, which were very dazzling, and the crowd exclaimed, the sparks had not yet dispersed, and the master poured molten iron again, and the golden sparks came and went, and they burst into the crown of trees in a staggered manner, and they were scattered in all directions, like a golden "flower rain", the flower arc was like a rainbow, and the flower rain was colorful, it was really like the Nine Heavens Galaxy had burst its embankment. Pei Zhao gently covered her face, revealing only a pair of eyes, and his sleeves had a sweet and bitter Rui brain fragrance, blocking the overwhelming heat, leaving a gorgeous fire tree golden flower.

When she returned to the palace, it was dark, most of the lanterns that had been lit up before were removed, and the bright moon at the top of the treetops was shining brightly, reflecting the clear light all over the ground, she was too tired to play, and she had eaten a lot of hemp custard cake before, her stomach was very swollen, and she followed Pei Zhao step by step, Pei Zhao was very patient, always taking a step, stopping a step, and waiting for her to follow.

"I didn't see the shadow puppet show tonight, so let's make up for it next time." Pei Zhao sent her outside the hall and said coldly.

"No, no, I'm already happy tonight." Su Ying smiled happily: "You treat me so well." ”

He seemed to want to speak and stopped, was silent for a long time, and said, "Rest early." ”

She carried the cloth tiger and entered the dormitory lightly, but Duanniang was waiting inside with a group of palace laves, and when she came back, she hurriedly surrounded her to freshen up. She was a little apprehensive in her heart, and secretly looked at Duan Niang's face, but she couldn't see anything, and when she took off the hairpin ring and changed her bedclothes, Duan Niang asked: "Are you still happy today?" ”

Su Ying nodded, and then carried the tail of the cloth tiger to Duan Niang, Duan Niang just smiled, tucked the quilt for her and retreated, she closed her eyes sleepily, but the colorful scene was still vivid.
