XXIV Lady
In the distance, someone suddenly high-fived.
Ah Fu turned his head, and the man wearing a dark ink-colored robe and a curly veil crown slowly high-fived and walked forward. The palace people and eunuchs bowed down one after another.
Li Gu stood up, Li Xin also got down from the round table, Ah Fu helped her, and felt her body tremble.
"Meet my father."
Ah Fu bowed down, and the emperor sat down, his voice gentle: "Don't worship, get up." I can't imagine that there is such a blessing today, you two are lazy, and I haven't let me listen to music for a long time. Xin'er, your song is a wonderful dance of the heavenly demons,"
Li Gu didn't say anything, but Li Xin said: "We have leisure every day, but my father doesn't have so much effort to accompany us to get this." ”
Although she stood strongly, everyone could see the tremor in her body. The emperor said, "You danced too hard just now, didn't you?" Sit down. ”
"It's not ......" Li Xin's face was pale, her face was full of sweat, and she looked pitiful: "I ate too much, and I moved violently...... Take a break and you'll be fine. ”
The emperor shook his head and laughed again: "You...... It's also a big girl, and she's still like a child. He said to Li Gu again, "You can sit down too." ”
Only Ah Fu was standing in the water pavilion.
"This is your new lady?"
Ah Fu Ying bowed: "Concubine Zhu visited the emperor." ”
"No courtesy. Sounds like you've read a book, too? ”
"In the past, I studied with my brother at home for two years and knew a few words."
"How many words? This is a humble statement. If you don't understand the meaning of the poems, the chanting just now won't be able to blend in with their music. I used to hear them play in an ensemble, and they could play freely, but they couldn't let go freely. What are you...... Whether intentionally or unintentionally, it is the end of the word, which is good. ”
Ah Fu said softly: "The emperor praises falsely, the music and singing are sincere, you have to move yourself before you can impress others." The concubine didn't know what she said just now, if there was any wonder, it was because the music of His Royal Highness Gu and Her Royal Highness the Princess moved the concubine first, so that she couldn't help but speak in harmony. ”
"Good, good!" The emperor said happily: "What a person who can't help it, but he is a person with a heart." ”
Li Xin took a sip of tea and said softly: "Not only has a wise heart, but also a skillful hand, the meal we used just now was made by her, and a fish made three ways to eat." ”
"Oh? Three ways to eat? ”
Li Xin said: "Well, the fish meat is scraped off and made into meatballs, the fish skin is cut and rolled with vegetable cores, courgettes and kidney beans are shredded, which taste sour and sweet, and the fish head is burned in the soup, and a spoonful of goat's milk is put in the soup." ”
"Oh?"
"Fish and sheep, aren't they fresh?"
The emperor laughed: "Hearing you say this, I want to taste it." ”
Li Xin smiled and said, "No, my brother and I have eaten it all." If the father wants to eat, please take advantage of it as soon as possible. ”
The emperor just nodded, and seemed to be completely disappointed by Li Xin's joke, and he was not displeased.
"Do you feel better?"
"Much better." She covered her smile: "I felt that the contents of my stomach were going to pour out just now, but fortunately I held back." If you really exhale at this water pavilion, it will really be a sweep of the floor and burning the piano and cooking cranes, and it is estimated that my brother will never come to this place in his life. ”
"Don't be so reckless next time. I just asked someone to send this year's new red fruit to Yulan Palace, that one can also be eaten, you will remember to eat some when you come back. ”
"That's sour."
"It's not sour, I've tasted it."
This kind of conversation is as intimate and natural as the father and daughter of ordinary people, and it seems that everyone in the palace says that the third princess is the most favored.
The emperor turned his head to Li Gu and said, "I also prepared a small basket for the Taiping Palace." ”
Li Gu said in a regular manner: "Thank you, Father." ”
Well, that's the difference between a son and a daughter. The daughter is a close-fitting padded jacket, and the longer the son grows, the more awkward the relationship with the father becomes.
"Then you just came to play the piano and flute when you were full of food and drink? No wonder I listened to the song from afar, and it seemed that I heard a little fishy. ”
"Oh, that's not the taste of our stomachs," the third princess pointed to the pool outside the window: "The water smells watery in summer, but it has nothing to do with us." ”
Ah Fu felt that the third princess was no wonder that it hurt people, the emperor hurt, the queen mother hurt, and Li Gu also liked her. Who can not like such a bright and beautiful girl?
Ah Fu remembered the pipa dance just now, and still felt his heart swaying, and his clothes fluttered and his skirts danced...... It seems that the Dunhuang murals that I have seen before, flying into the sky.
It's wonderful...... Wonderful unreal.
"Ah Fu, will you use red fruits to make snacks?"
Ah Fu thought for a while: "I can do two things, but the imperial chef in the palace must also be able to do it." ”
"Ah Fu?" The emperor heard the name for the first time: "Who took this name?" ”
"It was taken by the father, and it is the meaning that the blessings of the children will continue."
"This is her nickname, and her big name is also interesting, it's a happy word."
"Well, as a parent, you naturally want your child to be well. Vulgar is elegant, this is a good name. ”
Li Xin hit the snake with the stick: "Father, they had a happy event yesterday, and today they went to ask the Queen Mother for peace, and everyone has gifts for each other." Father, how can you be empty-handed? This is unreasonable. ”
Ah Fu believes that there must be too many emperors in the harem to ask the emperor for rewards, but there are really few who can successfully get it and make the emperor pay willingly. Even if he asks for it from the queen mother, it may not be as logical as the third princess Li Xin, and the emperor is particularly useful.
"Okay, this gift will naturally be given." The emperor cleared his throat and turned his head: "The Zhu family is gentle and respectful, dignified in appearance, and in the inner house, the Zhu family is a five-grade lady." ”
Li Xin pushed Ah Fu with a smile: "Oh, my father is rare and generous today, this bamboo pole is knocked!" Ah Fu, thank you! ”
Li Gu was stunned and then rejoiced: "Ah Fu, don't thank you soon." ”
Ah Fu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly knelt down to thank him.
From a humble palace maid, to a seven-grade lady, and then to a fifth-grade lady...... Ah Fu remembered that he had heard people talk about it before, and it took 18 years to be an official from the seventh grade to the fifth grade. But now? It's just two days......
It was not early, and after the emperor and the third princess went, everyone in the Taiping Palace said hello to Li Gu and Ah Fu, and it was very lively, and everyone was happy. Li Gu opened another reward, which was really fun up and down.
In the evening, Ah Fu had not come back to his senses, sitting in front of the mirror in a daze, Zimei came in with a white washed agate plate, which was filled with red and bright hawthorn. She bent her knees first: "Say hello to the master." Then he put the plate down.
"What about Your Highness?"
"Your Highness is bathing. The slave and maid ordered that water be prepared for the master. ”
Ah Fu nodded, and Zimei came over to disassemble her bun and comb her hair.
Ah Fu took a grain of hawthorn in his hand and took a bite lightly.
Sweet and sour, with a long aftertaste.
