Chapter 47: Mid-Autumn Festival
The rain finally stopped after a few days.
And the Mid-Autumn Festival is also coming as scheduled, and in mid-September, it is cool.
Chen Zhiyi embroidered a sachet with the spices in it.
Originally, she wanted to go to Wanhuayu to pick jasmine, but then she thought about it, she didn't know how to make flowers into spices, she was secretly doing it, so she didn't plan to let too many people know, so she didn't find someone to teach herself how to make spices, and she didn't find someone to teach herself how to embroider sachets.
Chen Zhiyi sat on the stool in the room, holding his chin with both hands, frowning and staring at the sachet on the table.
Chen Zhiyi's hand holding his face was a little injured, not from a fight, but with a needle.
How is it used? Chen Zhiyi didn't know anything about himself, anyway, he was poked around with needles and bled out, and finally it was like this.
And the so-called sachet on the table is two pieces of cloth put together, Chen Zhiyi sewed a circle with a needle and thread, and sealed this thing, but the spices inside smelled very fragrant.
Chen Zhiyi felt that he was simply not suitable for playing needlework, it was too scary.
After looking at it for a long time, Chen Zhiyi picked up the whole thing he had whole, looked at it for a while, and finally locked it in the cabinet.
Don't give it away.
Chen Zhiyi thought.
It's a shame.
As soon as the cabinet was locked, Xie Shi entered the door. Xie Shi was wearing a light blue wide-sleeved skirt, a light cyan shawl on the outside, and a set of gold and silver walking rocks and pearl hairpins on the cloud bun, which looked extremely bright.
"Zhiyu, I have prepared a set of clothes for you, this time you will enter the palace for a banquet, you have to listen to your mother." Xie Shi said this, but he was still a little worried that Chen Zhiyi would make trouble.
But fortunately, Murong Jin talked to her before, and asked Chen Zhiyu to follow Xie and listen to Xie's words, so this time Chen Zhiyi did not refuse, nodded obediently, and listened to Xie's arrangement.
Seeing her nodding, Xie Shi was very surprised, and hurriedly called the maids to prepare.
In the end, Chen Zhiyi went out, and he was like two people before.
She was wearing a pink cloud-embroidered plum blossom dress, with three layers inside and three layers on the outside, which was so complicated that even she didn't know how to put it on. There is also a pair of fairy buns, with golden hairpins inserted on the left and right, blue pearls hanging on the hairpins, and beautiful beads in some other places.
Chen Zhiyu doesn't do makeup during the day, but today he was pulled in front of the mirror by Xie Shi and closed his eyes.
When she opened her eyes, she was stunned when she saw the vague but delicate girl in the bronze mirror.
Xie didn't put on heavy makeup for her, but simply applied lead powder and drew her eyebrows. Chen Zhiyi's mouth turned red without dotting, so Xie didn't even give her some lipstick.
"Mother, I can't walk." Chen Zhiyi felt that every step he took had to wrestle.
This dress is just too complicated.
Xie Shi was very satisfied with Chen Zhiyi today, her smile was very bright, "It's okay, my mother is supporting you." Knowing that the gardenia is well-behaved, why don't you move around when you go to the banquet for a while. ”
Chen Zhiyi really can't understand how those young ladies who dress like this but walk naturally do it?
After listening to Xie's words, Chen Zhiyi looked up at the dark sky again, and knew that this dress would definitely not be able to be changed again, so she nodded resignedly.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace, and when he got out of the car, Xie asked the maid to hand over the invitation, and the guard glanced at the invitation, handed the invitation back with both hands, and then let him go.
Chen Zhiyi walked hard, but he sweated in such a cool weather.
Not because of nervousness.
It's just that it's too strenuous, and it's ...... It was the first time she felt so heavy in her head.
She used her hand to compare the height of her bun, and finally sighed, "Mother......"
Xie was helpless, but he ignored her.
Along the way, Chen Zhiyan didn't know how many words he complained about and how many times he called his mother.
It was already dark, but the palace was brightly lit as if it were day.
The palace people who came and went hurriedly walked with their heads down, holding trays in their hands, and the trays were full of food.
Just walked past a group of palace people, the tray in their hands was filled with roast mutton that had been cut into slices, and when they walked away, the fragrance had not yet dissipated, Chen Zhiyi sighed: "It's really fragrant." ”
Xie Fanghua is still in Jinhua Palace.
Saying that she was not there, Qingzhi was quietly guarding outside her room.
In the Book Pavilion, Lin Jieyu and Fu Siyi were still copying Buddhist scriptures. Today is the last day, as long as the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet or the queen's birthday banquet officially begins, they can be released.
In order to prevent the two from clashing again, Lin Jieyu was arranged in the west room and Fu Siyi was in the east.
The Red Girl appeared.
appeared in front of Lin Jieyu.
It's still a touch of red.
Looking up and seeing the red girl, Lin Jieyu was only stunned for a moment, then put down the pen in her hand and walked towards the red girl, "What should I do?" ”
The red girl came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
She entered the Jinhua Palace.
entered Xie Fanghua's bedroom.
Qingzhi heard movement inside, hurriedly pushed open the door, walked into the inner room, and saw the red girl. The red girl took off the mask, revealing a face that was even beautiful.
"Mother, it's time to change your clothes." Qingzhi walked over.
"That light purple bird spirit magpie suit." Xie Fanghua rarely wears this kind of red clothes, and now she is not only beautiful, but also stunning, amazing and suffocating.
"Yes." Qingzhi answered and hurriedly went to prepare.
Xie Fanghua is a red girl.
Her light skills were taught by Su Wuming.
Xie Fanghua put on the light purple bird spirit magpie suit, combed the double knife and half turned the bun, Qingzhi chose two hairpins and tassels for her, because she was in a hurry, Xie Fanghua hurriedly put on makeup, and went out of the Jinhua Palace.
I happened to meet Concubine Wang Shu on the way, and Xie Fanghua was not so anxious.
Concubine Wang Shufei is also dressed beautifully today, especially the golden phoenix hairpin on her head, which is very exquisitely made, but Xie Fanghua has no leisure to count how many tails the phoenix hairpin has.
"Fanghua's outfit looks good." Wang Shufei boasted.
On the way, I met some palace people, saw her two, saluted and hurried away.
Xie Fanghua listened, and just smiled lightly, "Sister Shufei's Jin Fengchai is also very good-looking." ”
The palace banquet is set in the Imperial Garden.
Xie Fanghua saw Xie Shi and asked Wang Shufei to go around first, so she walked to Xie Shi, "Mother." ”
She called out and glanced at Chen Zhiyu again.
glanced at Chen Zhiyu again.
"Zhiyu?" Xie Fanghua almost didn't recognize her.
Chen Zhiyi smirked, "Sister." ”
Xie Fanghua was a little surprised, obviously she didn't expect that Chen Zhiyi, who was used to messing around in Su Ri, looked good like this, even if Chen Zhiyi was not beautiful, but this costume was very suitable for her, "Zhiyu is like this, and it is very beautiful." ”
Chen Zhiyi shrugged his shoulders, "It's just too tired." I thought, when the big day is approaching in the future, I should stay away from the capital! ”
Xie Fanghua laughed at her, and Xie also talked to her.
Chen Zhiyi lowered his head embarrassedly, then raised his head and looked around, and asked curiously, "Sister, why are they all women?" ”
She actually wanted to ask why she didn't see Xie Eran.
Even Murong Jin, who was following closely behind, didn't see it.
Xie Fanghua explained to her, saying: "This palace banquet is relatively large, so the female family is on the west side of the Imperial Garden, and the men are on the east side of the Imperial Garden. ”
Queen Xia's birthday banquet and Mid-Autumn Festival banquet were held together, and naturally there were many people.
Prime Minister Xie was also on his way here.
Chen Zhiyi nodded thoughtfully, somewhat disappointed in his heart.
"Mother, you will know that you will look at it, don't let her run around." There was a lot of chaos in the palace tonight, and Xie Fanghua didn't want Chen Zhiyi to be stirred in.
Xie probably understood what she meant, so he nodded, "Don't worry." ”
While chatting, the chamberlain shouted: "The queen mother has arrived-the concubine has arrived-"
Empress Xia and Concubine Yu came in from the gate of the imperial garden one after the other, and the palace maid carried a lamp to reflect them, which was very bright.
Both of them wore Lingyun buns. Queen Xia wore a set of nine-tailed phoenix crowns, which looked more dignified; And Concubine Yu Guifei wore a lot of hairpins and hairpins, which was more charming.
"See the queen mother-" Today, Queen Xia is the protagonist, no matter how favored Concubine Yu is in Su Ri, she can't rob Queen Xia's halo.
Chen Zhiyi didn't know what to do, until he was pulled by Xie Shi and squatted down, and he still had to bow his head?
She was upset.
Thinking about her Chen Zhiyu for a few years, when did she bow her head to others?
However, after Queen Xia shouted flat, Chen Zhiyi looked at the woman, and suddenly felt that Queen Xia was not a nasty person. Chen Zhiyu even felt that Empress Xia looked like a good person.
Instead, it was Concubine Yu beside her......
Chen Zhiyu coughed lightly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the birthday of the main palace is on the same day as the Mid-Autumn Festival, this is a day to be happy about," Empress Xia said as she walked towards the main seat set up in the imperial garden, "The banquet is about to begin, let's take a walk around first." ”
Concubine Yu is sitting on the lower left side, and Concubine Wang Shufei is on the lower right side.
"Mother, look forward to Zhiyu." Xie Fanghua advised again.
"Okay." Xie knew that Xie Fanghua was worried about Chen Zhiyi, but she emphasized that she should be optimistic about Chen Zhiyu twice, which made Xie Shi frown, could it be that her eldest daughter had any plans?
Xie Shi was so engrossed that even after Xie Fanghua walked to the second row on the lower left side and sat down, she was still thinking about things.
"Mother!" This is the third time Chen Zhiyi called her.
Xie's thoughts were finally pulled back.
Queen Xia suddenly remembered something, called behind her, and asked, "Then Miss Fu and Lin Jieyu are still copying Buddhist scriptures in the Shujing Pavilion?" ”
"Yes, Niangniang, it's not too early, why don't you send someone to call the two of them?" Dongchan thought for a moment and asked.
Lin Jieyu is a third-grade Jieyu, and Fu Siyi's father is a fourth-grade Dali Temple Shaoqing, so it stands to reason that the two of them are qualified to participate in this banquet.
And the emperor also said at the time that the two could be released today, so Empress Xia nodded, "Go ahead." ”
"Queen mother, queen mother is not good...... suddenly panicked and ran to a chamberlain, hesitated to run too fast, and the hat on his head didn't know where it fell on the road.
"What's the system of panicking?" Empress Xia frowned, got up and scolded, "What happened?" ”
"Queen Mother, Shujing Pavilion, Shujing Pavilion is gone!" The chamberlain shouted.
