Chapter 294: and the Rites
When Pei Lin returned home, he became angry and smashed his study.
Sitting on the chair angrily: "Blame me? ”
The Shen brothers only spoke at this time: "Your Highness is angry, the Second Highness has entered the palace early in the morning, maybe he said something." ”
"The wicked sue first?" Shen Xiyun gritted his teeth: "Who else is this assassination?" ”
"No matter who it is, Your Highness must calm down. It's not in our favor right now. Shen Xining also sighed: "Your Majesty was kind to you before, but suddenly you blamed you, I'm afraid that it was the Second Highness who said something." You say, is that the thing? It's impossible, we're doing it cleanly. ”
"Brother, even if there is no such thing, it will be the same. Do you really believe that His Royal Highness is angry at the crown and is red-faced? He went to King Fu's Mansion to spread the wild to show the world, okay! Shen Xiyun snorted: "Ning Zeli just died, he definitely can't do without the girl of the Ning family." This son will make affectionate money, isn't it for the world to praise him? What's more, Ning Zhi was given his birthday in the palace. His Majesty also agreed, isn't it a joke? ”
Shen Xiyun thought that all this was premeditated.
"It makes sense." Shen Xining nodded.
"The Ning family will always find out the result." Pei Lin said lightly: "Since it's a matter of time, it's better to be early." ”
The Shen brothers glanced at each other and immediately understood: "What does Your Highness mean to lead to trouble?" ”
Pei Lin sneered: "Don't they all say that the nine girls of the Ning family are powerful, why don't you ask Pei Heng to learn one or two by herself?" ”
"My subordinates, let's think about what to do." The Shen brothers became excited.
Yes, in fact, from the beginning, didn't you just want the Ning family and the Second Highness to fight? It's just that it hasn't worked out.
It's not too late.
Because His Majesty's intention and the prince's intention came first, Pei Lin's assassination was a storm in the city. It's just that it hasn't been mentioned in the court.
It can be said that it was suppressed silently.
Pei Lin was naturally dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to say anything.
And he is in the palace province, and he has one more thing to do, that is, Ning Zhi's ceremony.
Since it has been decided to be placed in the Shengyuan Temple, it is definitely not a trivial matter.
In other words, the arrangement has to keep up with the venue. Otherwise, it would be Pei Lin's dereliction of duty.
Pei Heng sent Su Mu over from beginning to end, and he didn't allow mistakes.
However, in fact, he is too careful, Pei Lin never dares to play tricks here. If something goes wrong, it depends on His Majesty's attitude towards him now. It was he who was cold.
Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it is June 30.
On the twenty-ninth day, Ning Zhi lived in the palace. If you stay in the palace, it will be difficult to live in the Feihong Palace, and it was Pei Heng who sent her to live in the Dexin Hall of Concubine De.
Concubine De was naturally happy.
Although Lin Wanqing had no chance to marry Ning Yun, she married Ning Hao's lieutenant. The Lin family is also very satisfied.
Therefore, Concubine De has always been able to win over Ning Zhi.
As soon as she got up in the morning, Ning Zhi was put on a delicate dress. It's still white, snow-white white.
There are layers of embroidered patterns on the top, all of which are white chrysanthemums, which in ancient times meant longevity.
The white silk thread is mixed with silver silk thread, embroidered on the snow-white background, and from a distance, it only feels the brightness of the silver silk thread. It's not glaring, it's soft.
When you look closely, the white pattern has completely covered the white base.
The collar, collar, cuffs, and hem are even more delicate.
Today is considered an adult, so I don't wear a loose skirt, and I wear a belt of the same color around my waist, which is outlined with silver thread. Hanging a pair of white jade jade pendants.
The jade pendant was sent by Pei Heng, and it was carved with a pattern that meant auspiciousness.
The shoes are also white, with a slight embroidery pattern of aqua blue silk thread. It's like the finishing touch, but it's not showy, and it doesn't break the rules.
Ning Zhi put on some thin gouache today, and lightly drew his eyebrows.
A little pale pink rouge on the lips. Combed a hanging bun, it was still the little girls' hair bun. A pair of hairpins decorated with silver inlaid with white pearls.
And put on a pair of pearl earrings. Even if it's alive.
After all, it is also in the filial piety period, and it can't be too public.
According to the actual rules, during the grandfather's filial piety, the junior is forbidden to celebrate his birthday.
Even if it can be done, it must not be done in a big way.
This is also what Pei Heng wants to do for her, everything is related to the royal family, it is different, and many rules can be broken.
Concubine De personally led Ning Zhi to the Shengyuan Palace.
She gladly took the errand, and generally speaking, the girls' families always had to find two or three noble women to give them the ceremony.
Ning Zhi must have found the crown princess Ning Luan. It is true that Ning Luan's identity is enough.
However, Concubine De is an elder, even if she is not the queen of the main palace, she is also a high-powered woman.
Therefore, the people who gave Ning Zhi a gift today are Concubine De, the crown princess, and Ning Zhi's eighth sister Ning Ling.
Ning Zhi asked for it, so Ning Hao's wife Zhang and Ning Jiang's wife Jin did not come back.
His Majesty and the crown prince didn't come, and the two of them really couldn't come, it would be too much if they came again. Pei Heng and others were all present, because it was a ceremony from the daughter's family, so the male guests sat a little farther away. Most of them are still female dependents.
At the beginning of the ceremony, the crown princess first read the praise.
To the effect that she praised Ning Zhi's virtues, and then said that she was an adult, and also admonished her to behave in the future when she became an adult. There are rules for this.
Even though Ning Luan wrote it himself, he probably still has a mold.
And then there is Concubine De, the same process.
Then Ning Ling stepped forward, and Bai Zhi cooperated with her to untie Ning Zhi's hair and re-comb her makeup in public.
Untie her simple draped bun and comb it from head to tail with a mahogany comb a few times before combing it back again.
It means that the girl is old and can get married.
After turning the hanging bun into a beautiful lily bun, the crown princess inserted a hairpin on Ning Zhi's head.
It was a golden hairpin. Red gold crested hairpin, inlaid with blood-red hedrons. That is, rubies.
Ancient craftsmanship is not good, so such gems are very rare and large, so they are very precious.
"This was given by your grandmother when your aunt was in the past. Aunt gives it to you today. My aunt is not worth emulating in this life. My aunt doesn't say anything about you, you're a good boy. Go on your own, walk well. Ning Luan looked at her niece with tears in her eyes and clapped her hands.
Ning Zhi answered yes and thanked the crown princess.
Concubine De originally prepared a hairpin, which is said to be etiquette. But because of Pei Heng's words, it was replaced by a pair of bracelets.
The best jade bracelet. put it on Ning Zhi: "You will be a family in the coming year, you are a good boy, and this palace is looking forward to seeing you all the time." ”
Ning Zhi thanked Concubine De.
Pei Heng looked at her all the time, and when he got up and walked over: "This hall has also prepared a gift for you." ”
Ning Zhi smiled: "I thought of it." ”
