Chapter 148: Questioning
The queen mother and several concubines have not yet come in the inner hall, and the palace people have invited the inner lady to the east hall.
The queen's bedroom is very simple, and the women inside look around, although they dare not say it openly, they know the mystery inside. The emperor ascended the throne as a young man, after the big wedding, the young emperor's feelings were originally excellent, but the queen's mother's family was not very good, the queen's mother entered the palace for three years and was favored but there was no joy, the young emperor wanted to be pro-government and wanted the eldest son more and more, the queen finally conceived a child, and the emperor began to seize power from the minister, who knew that at the critical moment, the queen had a miscarriage.
The emperor failed to govern and lost the prince, the queen's mother's family had a big incident in this year, the queen's brother was greedy for the navy shipbuilding official silver, that year the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Japanese war was defeated, thanks to the later Chengguo Gong turned the tide. After this incident, the empress resolutely stood up to support the emperor, and the empress's brother was punished for this.
However, the queen who is not very effective in her mother's family failed to get the support of all the ministers, but rumors spread that the queen is young but acts viciously, and the queen's family wants to rely on the emperor's young age to seize power and profit, the emperor's feelings seem to be strong, but they can't help all kinds of gossip, plus the emperor has no heirs, the queen mother presided over the election of Concubine De and Concubine Shu, since then there are more and more fans in the palace, and the new look has changed the old, and the queen's status is not a plummeting but also gradually alienated, and the once lively and prosperous Jingren Palace has become what it is today.
Lin Yi has been in Beijing for so long, and she heard from Chen Yunyuan that the government is almost all about the eldest lady of the Ningping Hou family, Concubine Hui, and the queen is rarely mentioned.
Until she was given marriage, it was also the Queen Mother who was in charge, and the Queen Mother seemed to rarely ask about things.
This time, the emperor has another heir, and the mother of the country must preside over the baptism, otherwise the queen will still not come forward.
The three baptisms were carried out according to the time set by the Ministry of Rites and the Celestial Supervisor.
Lin Yi sat on the side and waited, a cup of tea was at the bottom, and the waiter opened the curtain. Another noble man appeared, and the fifth princess, dressed in full costume, walked into the room tremblingly.
The eyes of the fifth princess roamed around the room and fell on Lin Yi's face for a moment. Lin Yi smiled politely, then sat down to talk to the lady next to her.
The fifth lady of Ningping Hou is the fifth princess, and her identity is very different from before, especially in the palace, she is naturally a little more self-controlled. Looking at Lin Yi's eyes, she softened a lot.
Everyone has to behave in front of their mother-in-law.
What's more, this mother-in-law is the mother of a country.
Therefore, whether it is rights or identity, everyone is not at the same level now, and it is unlikely that there will be conflicts. The Fifth Princess fully enjoyed the privileges of her status. Lin Yi just needs to follow everyone to watch the excitement on the side.
After all, women are good at expression, and everyone gets together to talk more, Lin Yi quickly met Princess Xianjun, everyone belongs to the Yuanzhi clan, Xianjun Wang is a famous nerd in the clan, Zhou Shijiu is a military general, and everyone has the same status. The position is the same, but there is no stake between them, there is no need to guard against each other or welcome each other, and it is much easier to talk.
Princess Xianjun is a few years older than Lin Yi, she has seen these scenes, and she mentioned Lin Yi on the side, which benefited Lin Yi a lot, "When the time comes, we can see the queen mother." ”
That is, in addition to presiding over the etiquette. The queen lady usually doesn't meet everyone alone.
Princess Xianjun smiled and revealed two round dimples, "I couldn't speak among the guests on the day you got married, but I knew that you were a cool person when I saw you today." ”
There are too many children of the clan, and the carriage and sedan chair could not be carried in on the day Zhou Shijiu became married.
Lin Yi smiled: "It will be fine in the future." My sister is a guest, and I will definitely entertain her. Although she doesn't know much about Princess Xianjun, but when everyone talks about it, she can't pretend to be a wooden person on the side, maybe everyone will get along with each other and have a similar temperament.
Princess Xianjun probably thought the same way, and reminded Lin Yi, "After the ceremony, the queen always has to leave a few people to speak." ”
Even if the queen doesn't ask about things, she still has to make a show of this.
For example, the princesses will stay and speak, and the next thing is ......
"You are the bride, you must meet you," Princess Xianjun pursed her lips and smiled, "Last time, the queen also left me to ask about her daily favorites." ”
It's just a mold's question, and then a mold's reply.
The queen is unwilling to "care" too much, even if someone wants to flatter, there is no use.
Lin Yi looked at the pomegranate shoes on her feet.
Princess Xianjun picked up a handkerchief to cover her mouth, "You, don't be too anxious," said and looked left and right, "You are still young, and you have time." ”
Is her desire to have a child so obvious? Lin Yi smiled embarrassedly.
Sure enough, it was when the auspicious time was approaching, and the palace people invited everyone to the main hall, the table was full of immortal cakes, and the queen held the little prince behind the curtain to do the customs one by one, and the inner woman bowed to watch, and then said some auspicious words.
The little prince's nurse took the little prince away, and the queen came out from behind the curtain.
The queen mother wore a black phoenix tail gilt lotus gown on an auspicious day, combed a high palace bun, wore a phoenix pattern to pick her heart day by day, and the ring bun was inlaid with a red gold hairpin with cloud patterns.
Women will decline when they are over thirty years old, and the queen's age is much older than Xiao Xiao and others, but it is still difficult to hide the beauty in her eyebrows.
The queen smiled slightly, saying that she was unwell and went back to rest, and the ladies did not dare to leave, just waiting for the palace people to come and speak.
Sure enough, as Princess Xianjun said, the queen mother left a few princesses. Lin Yi waited quietly, and the chamberlain walked up to Lin Yi with a smile, "Princess Kangjun will sit down for a while, and the queen will summon her in a while." ”
Lin Yi should come down and thank the waiter.
When the five princesses and others came out of the inner hall with a smile, Lin Yi walked into the inner hall under the gaze of the five princesses.
The fifth princess flickered her eyes and showed a playful smile.
Lin Yi smiled, as if the wind was blowing through the haze, and she didn't care at all.
The chamberlain asked Lin Yi to wait, Lin Yi half-lowered her head and looked at the yellow bricks on the ground that could shine the shadows, the inner hall was very quiet, and occasionally heard the sound of the palace people serving in small steps.
Not long after, Lin Yi walked in respectfully and saw the queen sitting on the bright yellow dragon and phoenix brocade, holding a tea bowl.
Lin Yi stepped forward and saluted, and the ring on her body did not make a sound.
The queen's jaw head instructed the palace people to sit.
Lin Yiting sat lightly on the side.
The queen raised her head, opposite a young cheek, fifteen years old princess, holding the handkerchief a little restrained, the princess of the county exposed the corners of the garnet-red skirt under the dress of the princess, and there were three purses around the waist, one painted a picture of a pomegranate asking for a child, the other was full of Sanskrit, and one was embroidered with a boy, completely dressed as a bride.
These auspicious purses have not changed for many years, and she also wore many such purses when she was carried into the palace, among which the ruggedness of the road to seek a child made her unforgettable.
Lin Yi hung her head, revealing a snow-white neck, and there was some gloom in her respectful eyebrows, wanting to hide it but not staying like this.
Such a look queen is the most familiar.
The queen instructed the palace people to bring the reward, "I have seen that the tassel embroidery you embroidered is very beautiful," said and took another sip of tea, "I remember that your grandmother is from the Dong family in Sichuan, Shaanxi?" ”
"No," Lin Yi said respectfully, "my father passed on to Changfang, and my grandmother's maiden family was the Gyeonggi Lee family. ”
The queen sighed, "What about before the succession?" ”
Lin Yi said: "Before the adoption, my own grandmother was Zhao. ”
The queen raised her eyebrows slightly, and no longer asked about Lin Yi's family affairs, "You have dexterous hands, and the appearance of embroidery is also very detailed, and you can also play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, right?" ”
Lin Yi didn't dare to hold it up, "I just learned a little from my husband, and I know a little bit about fur." ”
The queen smiled gently, "I heard that you studied under Marriage Yuqiu, this talented woman's calligraphy and painting is very fond of the palace, and Marriage Yuqiu is also familiar with medical science, have you learned some?" ”
Speaking of this, Lin Yi was embarrassed, "I just know how to order medicinal food." ”
The queen also smiled, "This is also very good," said and looked at Lin Yi carefully, "It's not too early, kneel down!" ”
Lin Yi got up and saluted the queen and went out.
The aunt beside the queen held the reward and sent Lin Yi out of Jingren Palace.
Lin Yi looked at her aunt with a smile on her face, "I'm tired of Aunt Sending it out," she said and tugged at her clothes, and only after a while did she make up her mind to speak, "Is there anything wrong with me, and I ask my aunt to help guide me." ”
My aunt smiled and said, "How can it be, the princess of the county is well-behaved and courteous, which is already rare...... It's just ......" and that's it.
Lin Yi was busy begging again, and her aunt said: "It is common for the princess of the county to be a bride, and this sachet for a child is in it, so she is tongue-in-cheek." ”
Hearing this, Lin Yi hurriedly took off the sachet and put it in the sleeve.
The aunt said: "It's much better, the princess of the county is still young......"
Speaking of this, Lin Yi's face was gloomy.
"The prince of the county is the only one...... I was also careless and picked the wrong one...... Don't wear ......"
The aunt beside the queen took special care of Lin Yi, "It's okay, it's not a difference in etiquette, the princess of the county has not been married for more than a month, and the slave maid said that it is just a bone in the egg." ”
Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
"There is one thing," said the aunt, "the queen is particularly fond of the tassel embroidery of the princess, and if the princess has time, she may wish to embroider one and send it in." ”
Lin Yi was flattered, "Auntie, rest assured, I will definitely embroider finely." ”
My aunt smiled: "Then I won't send it to the princess." ”
Lin Yi walked to the palace gate and got on the sedan chair, the moment the sedan curtain was lowered, Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't expect the queen mother to like her tassel embroidery so much, and asked her grandmother again...... There are mysteries everywhere in the palace, but in the end, her merit is complete this time, and the next thing is to see Zhou Nineteen.
