56 Things are not people: slaves and maids have no intention of climbing dragons and phoenixes
In order to prepare for the crown princess's sacrifice to the heavens, Wan'er made a special trip to consult the female official in charge of the dress in the Shangfu Bureau, and the female official told her that there was no spare pattern to choose from, and the women's dress was strict and must not be over-customized. Wan'er thought of the words of Li Dan, the prime minister, and couldn't help but sigh that Li Dan also had a rough and fine side, but as the crown prince, Li Xian knew the stakes and deliberately made things difficult, obviously very intentional. Wan'er is inconvenient to say anything, and she can't ignore the errand assigned by the prince, so she can only think about it repeatedly with the female official in Shangfu, but fortunately, the female official is not a rigid and conservative person, and after coming and going, she actually discussed an idea.
It turned out that the group of bright but not quiet palace maids she met that day brought inspiration to Wan'er, reminding her of colorful and chirping birds, and the princess's dress for the day was originally a colorful pheasant pattern. Therefore, Wan'er only made a slight change, decorating the pattern on the dress with fine jade beads, and replacing the long tail part of the pheasant pattern with real brocade bird tail feathers.
"If you look closely, it is indeed more gorgeous and chic, and it is in line with the product system, and there is no excess." The female officer expressed her satisfaction with the revised finished product.
"It's good to be able to make a difference, I hope to be in the eyes of the crown princess." Wan'er said very tactfully.
Because the female official in Shangfu often deals with the crown princess, she doesn't speak so tactfully, "In terms of clothing, the princess is the most picky, and she didn't have a picture of some of the skirts I sent, but if she wants to be in the limelight at the sacrifice ceremony, she can't help it!" ”
Wan'er chuckled: "The woman is ** beautiful, not to mention the already noble and beautiful princess, it is human nature, we are slaves, just do our best." ”
"The female history is listening to what she says, but it's a pity that there are more than one or two noble people in the palace, but there are people who are easy to serve and some people who are not good to serve...... Do you know Xue Shilang of Shangshutai, his lady is really elegant and graceful...... By the way, you must know Xue Shilang's younger brother, Xue Shao, the general of the Right Military Guard, that is really a good talent, if I am younger, I am afraid that I will make mistakes, and his wife is also docile and virtuous, so that I don't have any temper when a woman sees me! "The female official is not very old, but she speaks very sophisticated, with the snobbery and gossip peculiar to the palace people.
Wan'er was amused, and also joked: "My sister, the next time you prepare a hairpin dress, remember to prepare it with your heart, Xue Gongzi is very amorous, and he will definitely be able to understand......"
"Hahaha, Wan'er, you are really bad enough, you still have the leisure to tease me, hurry up to the East Palace to restore your life, see if you can pass the difficult pass first, she will show you a look."
Wan'er said goodbye to the female official in Shangfu, borrowed the dress for the day, and brought a little maid with her to carry it on a tray.
The East Palace is a pain in her heart, since she said goodbye to Li Xian's life and death, she has been avoiding going to the East Palace again, but she also understands that in the imperial city, weaknesses and wounds cannot be easily shown to people, on the contrary, she must pretend to be casual. Ruthlessness is the best protective color, and Wan'er deeply understands the truth in this.
When she arrived at the East Palace, the halls and pavilions were the same as before, but there was no familiar face, Wan'er took a few deep breaths, and indifferently came to the outside of the Lizheng Hall to ask to see the crown princess Wei.
Since Wei'er became the crown princess as he wished, his heart swelled to the extreme, and he didn't take anyone in his eyes at all in private, when he heard that Wan'er was coming, his raised eyebrows were raised higher, his nasal voice was mixed, and his attitude was extremely contemptuous, "Let her wait for a while, don't you see that the palace is still dressing up?" Look at the peonies smoked in the warm pavilion, if there are any blooming flowers, go and pick one for the palace. ”
The maid dealt with it carefully, not daring to disobey in the slightest.
When Wei re-applied the powder and put on the flowers, it was already half an hour later, and then he lazily Xuan Wan'er entered the hall.
"The slave has seen the princess!" Wan'er and her attendants saluted.
Wei Shi glanced at the two of them with condescending eyes, and his words were very contrived, "Let's be free of courtesy, where there are so many courtesies, it is really tiring, and it must not be stopped in this house." ”
Wan'er got up and said routinely: "Niangniang's sacrificial dress has been prepared, please take a look." ”
Wei squinted at the servant girl beside him, and the servant girl immediately took a few steps forward, took the dress from the tray, and hugged it to Concubine Wei.
Concubine Wei deliberately put on an expression of extreme disgust, picked up the pleats on the dress, and pulled her voice: "Why is it still so ugly!" If there is no freshness at all, you can't make a hundred flowers, how good it is to be magnificent. ”
"Niangniang, although the dress is not too complicated, it is solemn and dignified, and it is very commensurate with Niangniang's identity and bearing." Wan'er coped, "Look at the jade beads and colored feathers, they are both low-key and luxurious, and the meaning is very good." ”
Wei Shi was proud and stretched his waist: "No wonder Shangguan Nushi is so pleasing to people, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince often talked about you when he was still the King of England." ”
Wan'er knew that Wei wanted to embarrass her, and said with a light smile: "The slave is stupid, it must be a joke." ”
"How?" Webster asked suddenly.
Wan'er was stunned for a moment, and quickly glanced at the graceful lady sitting on the couch, I have to say that Wei's has a kind of glamorous beauty, the more heavy the makeup, the more beautiful it is.
Webster asked a little more clearly: "How is this East Palace now?" ”
This question was obviously ill-intentioned, and Wan'er was alert: "The East Palace is naturally a magnificent place, majestic and majestic, how can slaves and maids be qualified to comment." ”
"Compared to when the master was there before, what else can be improved in this East Palace?" Wei began to prepare to sprinkle salt on Wan'er's heart, "I heard that the waste prince likes bamboo and plum blossoms, but is it true? I also heard that he likes to use the water of morning dew to make sencha, but he doesn't have any tricks...... When the abolished prince reads the documents, is it customary to annotate with a red pen...... The waste prince ......", she took a bite of "waste prince", which made people feel infinitely disgusted.
"I'm just a slave and don't understand what the crown princess said, and I didn't stay with the former prince for too long, so I didn't pay attention to these details." Wan'er said coldly.
In exchange for a bitter sneer and a more mean attack from Webster, "Are all those boiling rumors false?" You don't have anything to do with Li Shuren at all? That's right, otherwise how can you get out of the way, and now you are rising step by step and becoming a big celebrity next to the queen! ”
Although Wan'er was no longer surprised by these remarks, and she had expected that she would not receive the courtesy of the crown princess, she was still sad in her heart at this time, she endured it, lowered her eyebrows and said nothing.
Seeing her attitude, Wei Shi was more unhappy in his heart, thinking about how to break people's psychological defenses, watching her collapse and make a fool of her, not sooner or later At this time, there was a slender and clear voice of the eunuch outside the hall, "His Royal Highness the Prince, please move to the Mingde Palace!" ”
Wei was angry, but he could only give up, waved his sleeves violently, and said impatiently: "Go quickly!" If he waits in a hurry, he has to anger others, and this palace can't afford it. ”
Wan'er saluted as usual, and the attendant maid folded the dress again and bowed neatly, and the two withdrew lightly.
As soon as he left the hall, the attendant let out a breath of air and whispered to Wan'er: "It's over." ”
Wan'er gently tapped her forehead: "You either go to the Shangfu Bureau to return the dress, or find a place here to wait for me, and you can do it yourself." ”
The little maid stuck out her tongue and grimaced: "I'll still go to the Shangfu Bureau." ”
Wan'er shook her head with a smile, and said to the eunuch who had just passed the word: "Please lead the way!" ”
The Mingde Hall is actually a place that Wan'er can find with her eyes closed, so this sentence of asking the waiter to lead the way is just a conventional politeness.
Mingde Palace, that is, the former Xiande Palace, because the new prince Li Xian entered the East Palace, in order to avoid his name, it was specially renamed Mingde Palace.
Wan'er saw Li Xian in a silk robe in the main hall, and her heart was difficult to calm down for a long time. After all, they are siblings, and he is somewhat similar to Li Xian.
Li Xian saw that she was a little distracted, and coughed lightly.
Wan'er cleaned up her mood and hurriedly greeted the courtesy, Li Xian didn't say anything like being polite, but gave her a hand.
"Thank you, Your Highness the Prince." She said.
"Thank me for what? I didn't do anything. Li Xian was still a little angry.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for relieving the slaves." Wan'er knows it.
Li Xian had no choice but to say: "I know that she will not spare people whether she is reasonable or unreasonable." ”
"Niangniang didn't embarrass me." Wan'er said.
"Since there is no embarrassment, there is no talk of breaking the siege, why should you be so cautious?" Li Xian also had a more serious time, but his face was calmer, and he said, "We won't talk about her." Pulling Wan'er to sit down near the window.
Wan'er couldn't resist him, so she had to sit farther away, in the lower position.
"Wan'er, I spoke a little heavier that day, you know that I'm a person, I don't think much about the consequences before I speak." Li Xian is very honest.
"Your Highness didn't say anything, and the slaves and maids don't remember."
Li Xian said seriously: "If that's the case, that's fine, but if you are a forgetful person, I still have to say sorry to you...... I have no intention of hurting you. ”
"Your Highness's words are actually more suitable to say to King Xiang, he is your dearest person, your only brother, he has a straight temperament, you have to take care of it more." Wan'er whispered.
Li Xian nodded: "I have the opportunity to tell him, in fact, I just can't see him protecting you, and you also protect him." ”
"I'm nothing with His Royal Highness the Prime Minister." Wan'er is open.
"Even if there is anything, it's your business, and I have no right to interfere, right?" At this time, Li Xian was extremely gentle, with elegant eyebrows.
Wan'er couldn't go to see him, for fear that this tenderness was also a net, and said in a lower voice: "The slave has never had the intention of climbing the dragon and the phoenix, and she doesn't dare to think about anything wrong. ”
Li Xian didn't know her promise to Li Xian, let alone her intentions, so he held her hand and said, "Your wish is my wish, let me help you, is it okay?" ”
"Your Highness is safe and worry-free, and the slave and maid will be satisfied." Wan'er tried to pull her hand out, but he had no strength but no choice but to say, "The slave should go back." ”
Li Xian naturally refused: "Talk to me for a while, I have a lot of things I want to say to you, but you really appear in front of me, and I don't know where to start." Please give me time to sort it out, okay? "His humility and devotion to love is hard to refuse.
But emotion is emotion, reason is reason, Wan'er did not respond to him positively, but suddenly remembered something important. She nudged Li Xian, and while he was distracted, she quickly took out her hand and took out something wrapped in silk cloth from her sleeve. Still struggling with the latest chapter you can't find?
