Chapter 008: Compare the high

Chongfu Palace set up a banquet, and the members of the second rank and above in Beijing, and the royal family gathered together to celebrate the birthday of Concubine Shu.

Concubine Shu had a kind face and an amiable smile, and after listening to the birthday gifts presented by everyone, she was still in good spirits and happily talked to the emperor's concubine.

"The concubine, the concubine and the eldest princess of Guanyang toast you to celebrate your birthday." Concubine Li pulled Wei's, and the two of them smiled at Concubine Shu and raised their wine glasses.

Concubine Shu raised her glass and nodded, "Okay, okay." ”

Concubine Li finished drinking, poured herself another glass, and saluted the emperor, "Today is an auspicious day for celebration, and the concubines also wish the emperor a healthy body, and the blessings of the Great Chu River and Mountains will continue." After speaking, he drank the pure brew in the cup, and the arc of his chin and the gold bracelet on his wrist reflected a touch of bright color.

The Emperor nodded in satisfaction, took the wine and drank it down.

Concubine De on the side turned her face and sipped tea, and scolded in her heart.

After listening to the list of congratulatory gifts from the eunuch, the emperor asked, "Concubine, are you still satisfied with these congratulatory gifts?" ”

"They are all gold and jade treasures, famous calligraphy and painting." Concubine Shu smiled, "I heard that Sister Min has prepared something good, bring it to me to see." ”

When Princess Guan Yang heard this, she presented a brocade box, "Sister Min feels that no matter how expensive she is, it is not as intimate as the one she prepared herself, so she wrote a hundred shou words and asked me to pass it on to my mother!" ”

"Give it to me yet." Concubine Shu stretched out her hand, "You don't bring Sister Min to the table, you have to wait in the side hall." ”

The eldest princess Guan Yang pursed her lips and smiled, "Sister Min refused to come, saying that she should abide by the rules of the palace to celebrate her birthday, and if she didn't dare to come to offer her ugliness, I would do it for me." ”

Concubine Shu unfolded the text panel, the emperor glanced at it, the pen was still immature, not a good grade, but it was rare to have a heart.

Sure enough, Concubine Shu was overjoyed when she saw it, and ordered it to be framed and hung in Chongfu Palace. The emperor is also appreciated.

"The eldest princess empathizes with the concubines, the concubines had a headache before, and the hospital couldn't cure it, who expected that the child King Qi had a heart, and he paid attention to the famous Jianghu Langzhong when he went out of the palace, and brought back an earthwork, which has been used for a few days, and it is much better." Concubine Li smiled, "This gift, it still depends on whether the heart has arrived." ”

"Since Concubine Li said so, the congratulatory gift presented by King Qi today is what I remember to be the Ruyi Jade Birthday Star." Concubine De asked unhurriedly, "This can't be carved by King Qi with his heart, right?" ”

"Not really." Concubine Li's eyes rolled, "But King Qi also prepared something, and he thought that he would not be on the stage, so he specially asked me to give it to the concubine." ”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, "If the concubine has a problem with cold legs, you can try this home remedy." If the effect is not obvious, don't blame the child. ”

Concubine Shu took the prescription, "I asked for it from the man who gave you the prescription?" ”

"Medicine can't be used indiscriminately, isn't the earthwork prescribed by the Jianghu doctor afraid of hurting Concubine Shu's body? King Qi is not sensible, why doesn't Concubine Li's sister understand? Concubine De was quite interested in seeing Concubine Shu, and her tone was cold.

Concubine Li's face was calm, "Please Concubine Shu, the emperor can rest assured, I have already taken this recipe to the Tai Hospital and asked, the medicinal materials in it are all symptomatic, and there is nothing wrong, even the doctor praised this prescription for its wonderfulness, and copied it down and said that it should be studied carefully." ”

After speaking, Concubine Li looked at Concubine De with a smile, and Concubine Shu praised the emperor, "Chengyi, that child is not only filial, but also careful, and knows my old problem." ”

Concubine De didn't expect Concubine Li to take out such a piece of paper, and she raised the King of Qi by a cut, the King of Qi is filial, isn't the King of Jin filial?

Concubine Li was complacent, "Concubine Shu and the emperor both know that Yi'er is like this, she is more thoughtful than me, it is difficult for him, and he is still a half-old child!" Turning his head as he spoke, "King Jin has a free and easy personality, and he is not informal, and Sister Concubine De must have more worries than me." ”

Free-spirited and informal? This is praising people, and it is turning a corner to say that the King of Jin is not thoughtful. Concubine De was choked on this sentence, I didn't know how to respond, I looked at the emperor, and saw the emperor casually blowing the tea leaves in the tea cup, Concubine De's hand under the table was loose, loosened, and only spoke after a while, "It's all children, you must worry about it." Your Majesty, the concubine is unwell, can she retire first. ”

The emperor took a sip of tea, "Concubine, I still have some official business to go to the Qinzheng Palace, there is Guan Yang to accompany you, and when the birthday banquet is over, if the concubine is interested, you can go to the Qingliang Palace for a while, and let the prince of Anping and his juniors come over to accompany you to be lively." ”

There is a troupe in the Qingliang Palace, and Concubine Shu loves to listen to dramas, so the palace arranges it all year round.

Concubine Shu nodded, "The emperor is going to take care of your business, don't worry about me." ”

Concubine Li saw that the emperor was leaving, but Shicai didn't want to stay with her, thinking that she was going to follow her to the Qinzheng Palace to accompany her, so she stood up and lowered her head and whispered, "That concubine will follow the emperor ......."

"Concubine De is unwell, you accompany her back to Jingyang Palace, and when this side is dispersed, then go to Qingliang Palace." The emperor threw down a sentence and left without looking back.

"Let's go!"

Concubine Li's charming expression froze on her face, and she pulled out an embarrassed smile, "The concubine sends the emperor off." ”

Concubine De saw that she was not happy, so she stiffened her waist and said in a manly voice, "Sister Concubine Li, let's go together." ”

The dark tide in Chongfu Palace was surging, and everyone in the side hall was chatting happily. Liu Min was originally treated like a star and a moon, and just now he came to be rewarded again, everyone in the hall was envious, forming a semi-arc around Liu Min, Song Yu couldn't help but pull Lin Yan up, wanting to see what good things the emperor had rewarded.

Liu Min had a peasish expression, but he was very useful in his heart. She's naturally different. The eyes of the girls around her turned from the reward to her, and they asked her where she bought her clothes and where she got her jewelry.

Liu Min stroked his sideburns and said leisurely, "This is all brought back by my mother from the palace Shangyi Bureau, how can I buy it outside." ”

Everyone exclaimed, no wonder, the things in the palace can be compared with the outside!

Song Li sat alone near the temple gate, watching the girls sitting in a circle exclaim from time to time, feeling a little bored.

Counting the time, the birthday banquet in Chongfu Palace should be about to end, and then it should be changed places, taking advantage of this gap to go to the clean room first.

got up and asked the little eunuch at the door how to go, Song Li took Baoyue out of the side hall.

There is a distance from the side hall to the clean room, and there is a section in the middle that is particularly secluded, and even the palace maids and eunuchs are rare. Song Li was afraid of delaying the time, so after coming out of the clean room, he sped up his pace and hurried away.

When I walked to that secluded section, I suddenly heard Bao Yueqi say, "Miss, look over there." ”

Song Li stopped, looked in the direction pointed by Baoyue, and couldn't help but stop frowning.
