Chapter 62: Concubine (1)
I almost fled back into the dormitory, how could I say such a thing to Month by Month? Is it true that in my heart, I don't have any confidence in my relationship with Shunzhi? If I die of Shunzhi, will I flee to the side of the moon? Use him as a safe haven? I'm such a selfish person.
August 25th, is the canonization of the ceremony of the show girl, after tonight, they will no longer live in the Chuxiu Palace, to move to the designated palace, or live alone, or with other concubines, of course, Wuyunzhu is not among them, she has already lived in the Chengqian Palace, become the head of the palace. After tonight, the worship room will put the green head plate with their names written on it in a silver platter for Shunzhi to choose, and from then on, their fate will only depend on this man.
On the afternoon of the 25th, I changed into a rare Panlong court dress, put on a crown decorated with three layers of Dongzhu, and looked at myself in the mirror, graceful and noble, and my ordinary face was also covered with a layer of solemn brilliance. Sure enough, people want clothes, but I don't know how many thoughtful people remember this "clothes" on my body.
It was not evening when I came to Cining Palace, Concubine Tong had already arrived, and Luo Yan accompanied the Queen Mother to talk in the warm pavilion, and after seeing the ceremony, Luo Yan happily ran to my side, affectionately held my hand and said, "Why did you come?" I've been waiting for you for a day. ”
The Queen Mother and Concubine Tong looked at us in surprise when they looked at her, Luo Yan smiled mysteriously, winked at me, I chuckled, maybe it was my words, it seems that Luo Yan no longer classifies me in the "teasing" crowd.
Concubine Tong quipped: "I didn't expect Luo Yan to be so close to my sister as soon as she came back, it seems that we don't have to worry about it in the future." ”
Luo Yanqi said: "What are you worried about? ”
Concubine Tong said with a smile: "The last time you came back, you almost demolished my Xianfu Palace, but now it's okay, my sister will watch you and see if you can still be naughty." ”
This Concubine Tong, she doesn't want to hand over the historical responsibility of disciplining Luo Yan to me, right?
Luo Yan listened to Concubine Tong tell her "history", not only with peace of mind, but also with a smug face: "Is this complimenting me?" I won't tell you, I'll go and see why the emperor's brother hasn't arrived yet. After saying that, he waved his hand at me and ran out of the temple as fast as he could.
The Queen Mother shook her head and smiled: "Luo Yan, this girl, someone really has to look at her." ”
As he was talking, Li Fu came in to pass the ceremony, the dark cloud beads arrived, and the Queen Mother said lightly: "Don't let her in, let her go directly to ......" The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Tong inadvertently, and changed her mind: "Let her come in." ”
Li Fu took the order to go, and after a while, he brought Wuyunzhu in, because the court clothes would not be distributed until tonight, so Wuyunzhu was still wearing a plain dress, and there was no sense of luxury in dressing.
Wuyunzhu came to the front, knelt down on his knees, and said: "Slave Wuyunzhu, see the Queen Mother." "She is a person with a yellow flag, belonging to the Queen Mother, and there is nothing wrong with calling herself a slave and maid to the Queen Mother, but the palace concubines rarely call themselves so.
Then, she got up again, bowed to me, and finally, bowed slightly, said hello to Concubine Tong, and then stood on the side with her hands down, the Queen Mother glanced at her and said, "Okay, don't stand, sit." ”
Listening to the Queen Mother's words, Wuyunzhu was a little flattered and hurriedly thanked her, and when Wuyunzhu sat down, the atmosphere that was quite lively just now was a little cold, and Wuyunzhu presented a booklet to the maid beside her, and said softly: "The slave took advantage of her leisure time to copy a scripture book, and presented it to the Queen Mother to read." ”
There was a palace maid who took the Buddhist scriptures and held them in front of the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother did not take it, but said: "You also bothered, but this was copied by others, and the mourning family always looked a little uncomfortable, and there was no satisfaction with copying it yourself." ”
Wuyunzhu bowed and said softly, "Yes." ”
Looking at her appearance, I suddenly felt a little sympathy for her, she wanted to get the approval of the Queen Mother like that, but it was a pity......
Concubine Tong sat next to her and said as if unintentionally: "It's really hard for Sister E to accompany the emperor and teach the show girl every day, but also have the leisure to copy scriptures for the queen mother. ”
Wuyunzhu chuckled: "My sister said that I laughed, the emperor has a lot of state affairs during this time, how dare I bother, my sister who is studying homework is in the palace at the same time as me, they are very familiar with each other, and they are very serious about doing their homework, so I have a lot of leisure time, learning the queen mother to copy Buddhist scriptures, in order to cultivate self-cultivation." ”
Listening to Wuyunzhu's words, I couldn't help but secretly wonder in my heart, hasn't Shunzhi been to her these days? Is it really busy with state affairs? And don't have time to go to Kunning Palace? It's just, why didn't you see him so busy before?
I glanced at the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother leaned on the cushion, and closed her eyes at some point, I said to the dark cloud bead: "Sister E has been teaching hard these days," I turned to Concubine Tong and said: "Sister Concubine Tong, after today, let's let Sister E rest for two days first, and then leave other things to Sister E." ”
Concubine Tong said with some thought: "Yes." ”
I smiled again: "I don't know what my sister plans to give to Sister E, it's better to listen to it, so that Sister E can be prepared." ”
Concubine Tong looked at me, glanced at me with some "sympathy", looked at Wuyunzhu again, and chuckled: "Sister E has just entered the palace, and she is not familiar with the affairs of the palace, so it is better to start simple, recently there are a thousand new plum trees in the palace, and my sister is responsible for taking care of them and distributing them to each palace." ”
What kind of errand is this? This kind of thing only needs to be ordered casually which leader and eunuch, which turn can be done by Wuyunzhu, the person of the "assistant harem"?
I said unhappily: "Concubine Tong, this ......"
Before he finished speaking, Wu Yunzhu said softly on the side: "Don't worry, Concubine Tong's sister is considerate of her concubines, and her concubines should do their best." After that, she chuckled and said: "This batch of plum trees came in time, some time ago, the emperor just told his concubines about admiring the proud demeanor of plum trees, if the concubines are more in the Qianqing Palace and the Yangxin Palace, the emperor will be happy." ”
Concubine Tong moved her mouth, and said rather tastelessly: "Sister E can even guess the emperor's thoughts, which really makes my sister admire." ”
Wuyunzhu smiled: "How dare my sister speculate on the holy will? Speaking of which, I would like to thank my sister for leaving such a good errand to my sister. ”
Looking at Concubine Tong and Wuyunzhu coming and going, I shouted in my heart: Come on! Come on! Pounce on her and beat her up!
At this time, someone from the palace came in to report that Shunzhi's imperial chariot had set off from the Qianqing Palace, and the queen mother opened her eyes, looked at me and smiled: "Let's go too." ”
The canonization ceremony was held in a large hall of Cining Palace, different from the last Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, this ceremony is much grander, paved with a bright yellow scheme placed on the middle of the steps, there are three seats behind the case, naturally I and Shunzhi and the Queen Mother's seat, the beam is hung with red silk, the ground is covered with a red carpet, there are more than a dozen cases on both sides, the palace band is prepared on one side, the concubines of the harem have been waiting in the palace, seeing our group coming, they have asked for a salute, I and the Queen Mother sit on both sides of the dragon chair, Concubine Tong sat on the seat on the lower left, and Wuyunzhu did not sit down, but withdrew from the hall with all the beautiful girls, and they could not come in until the edict was read out later. I haven't seen Xuan Ye, probably they don't need to appear on such an occasion, I am a little disappointed in my heart, and I want to tell him about what has happened in the past few days.
After a while, I only heard a voice outside the hall, "The emperor - up - drive - arrive - " except for the queen mother, all of us stood up and waited to take over.
I can't help but sigh, why do Shunzhi and I always have to meet under such circumstances? When we met, we can't have extra words, what can only be guessed, he is these days, in the end......
Just thinking about it, Shunzhi has entered the hall, the dragon with teeth and claws on the bright yellow court uniform will bring out the king's spirit on his body to the fullest, and the arrogance and awe-inspiring exuded by him are something I have never seen, wearing a dragon robe, he is a little different from him on weekdays. He walked towards me slowly, but he didn't look at me, tilted his head and whispered to Luo Yan beside him, I stood on the high platform, looked at Shunzhi, and looked at the concubines around him, I suddenly felt that Shunzhi seemed to be a little strange.
Listening to the sound of the warbler swallow chanting long live in my ears, I came back to my senses, it turned out that I was so engrossed that I forgot to bow down, Shunzhi's gaze stopped at me, but when I looked at him, he ...... On the run?
I held back the doubts in my heart and bowed down, "Ladies and gentlemen." Shunzhi's voice echoed in the hall, and after I got up, I eagerly looked for Shunzhi's eyes, I don't know if I was suspicious, I always felt that Shunzhi was avoiding my gaze intentionally or unintentionally.
What the hell is going on?
At this time, the Queen Mother beckoned to Luo Yan and said, "Luo Yan, come and sit here." ”
Luo Yan smiled and walked to the Queen Mother's side, there were already palace people on the chair here, and the Queen Mother asked with a smile: "What were you talking to the emperor just now?" So happy? ”
Luo Yan smiled: "Don't tell the emperor first, you'll know in a while." ”
The Queen Mother smiled dotingly, and Shunzhi smiled and said, "Luo Yan wants to surprise someone tonight." ”
Luo Yan glared at Shunzhi with disgust, Shunzhi smiled and didn't speak, and the Queen Mother said strangely: "Someone? Who is it? ”
I also looked at Luo Yan very curiously, a trace of blush passed over Luo Yan's face, and she said hurriedly: "Someone...... refers to the imperial sister-in-law. ”
"Me?" I was a little surprised, I cast an inquiring glance at Shunzhi, this time Shunzhi did not escape, he looked at me, a trace of guilt flashed on his face, I don't understand more and more, between us, is there something that I don't know?
