The two grandmothers bent their knees and agreed, and discussed a few words in a low voice, and Mama Zhang looked at Li Xiaoqi and said with a smile: "Fifth master, the head is the same, this palace dress is very particular, unless the edict is given, no violation of the law, the fifth master must wear women's clothes." Li Xiaoqi put his hands on his cheeks and nodded, the two grandmothers secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they were willing to be obedient, Mama Lu respectfully continued: "The second thing is walking, the fifth master walks everything, but he is lazy and casual, which is a big taboo in front of the emperor." Li Xiaoqi let out a long sigh, nodded again, and the two grandmothers made up their minds, and then said: "In addition to walking, this standing, sitting, getting up, blessing, drinking tea and eating snacks, the fifth master has to go through it once." Li Xiaoqi put down his two hands, looked at the two grandmothers and discussed: "Just tomorrow day, don't be too serious, don't be so detailed, you can mix it up the day after tomorrow, you can rest assured, I will enter the palace, I will not move if I can, I will not say if I can, I will never stand if I can sit, and I will never move around if I can stand." ”

"Fifth master, that's not what I said, is there any rule for this, even if you sit still, you can see at a glance, the difference between sitting and sitting is also big, the fifth master usually acts and behaves in a good manner, but he is cautious and respectful in his heart, and he can ponder the details." Mama Zhang hurriedly said with a smile, and Mama Lu hurriedly followed and persuaded: "If the fifth master can work hard, tomorrow will be enough for one day, the people in the palace are well-informed and have sharp eyes, the fifth master will work hard tonight and tomorrow, so as not to lose the dignity of our house when the time comes." ”

Li Xiaoqi looked at the two of them back and forth, these two grandmothers were really dedicated.

"Okay!" Li Xiaoqi didn't have much strength to reply, Mama Zhang and Mama Lu were happy, Li Xiaoqi looked at the two of them, and suddenly asked, "Did the prince explain before he came?" If I don't behave, I'll punish you both? ”

"Back to the fifth master, when he came, the master didn't say punishment, only said that if the fifth master learned the rules well, he would reward the two slaves and maids." Mama Zhang and Mama Lu were stunned, and simply lowered their hands in response, Li Xiaoqi looked at the two, thought about it, didn't ask any more, sighed and ordered under the kang: "Let's walk first." ”

As soon as he took two steps, Li Xiaoqi suddenly stopped his steps, turned around and instructed Haitang: "Go and call the dog to come in to see me, and let him do it if he has something urgent." Haitang hurriedly agreed, came out and called a little girl to go out to call someone, and Li Xiaoqi called Wisteria to come in and ordered: "Take a hundred taels of silver tickets for me." Wisteria went in and took out two silver tickets, Li Xiaoqi motioned for her to put them on a few, and while continuing to walk elegantly, he asked, "How much cash is there?" ”

"Back to the fifth master, there are more than seven thousand seven hundred taels."

"Well," Li Xiaoqi sighed secretly, this silver is really the same as flowing water, but unfortunately it is flowing out, not inward, these seven thousand miles also have to support the cost of Tiemu and Shuncai's wedding, Su Zicheng said that her Yulu is a year, and it should be closed next month, if it is less, she will definitely have to speak, Mr. Liang sent a letter saying that he had found several good weavers for her, and as soon as the people arrived, they had to hurry up to prepare for the weaving workshop, this weaving workshop, is it to run it by themselves, or to find a suitable partner? Why don't you just send the dry shares? This is the best, this weaving workshop will be the Li family's family property in the future, it is not good to co-operate with others, it is most appropriate to send dry shares, well, the weaving workshop has to be taken from Mrs. Fan, the eldest brother is right, for her, she has too high expectations, some things, you can't force it, and you can't be anxious, take your time.

Li Xiaoqi swayed leisurely, and Mama Zhang hurriedly reminded her: "Fifth master, you can't throw your sleeves, you can't move your shoulders, don't get distracted." Li Xiaoqi walked two or three times, sat down and learned to drink tea again, and Zhang Gouzi went to the gate of the courtyard to listen to the instructions. Li Xiaoqi took the silver ticket and went to the outer courtyard, handed the silver ticket to Zhang Gouzi and instructed: "This is one hundred taels, you go to find a bigger gold and silver shop, and let them give some gold Fu Dou, two dollars each, Fu Dou is solid, well, go and take a look at it first, I can't make a stupid picture, and I must do it tomorrow before dark, if I can't do it, I will pay more wages." ”

Zhang Gouzi neatly agreed to take the silver ticket, and didn't ask much, ran out for half an hour, and came back with a red gold Fu Dou, Li Xiaoqi looked at it carefully, this little pea is very simple but simple and cute, Li Xiaoqi nodded with satisfaction, handed the Fu Dou back to Zhang Gouzi and instructed: "That's it, this family makes things with heart." Zhang Gouzi breathed a sigh of relief, and ran out to watch the people beat the one hundred taels of silver Fu Dou, Li Xiaoqi slowly shook back along the hand-copying verandah, this one hundred taels of silver, you can also hit fifty gold Fu Dou, the day after tomorrow may be all gone, this silver, flowing out like flowing water!

The next day, Li Xiaoqi really studied seriously for a day, Mama Zhang and Mama Lu were very satisfied, and in the evening, the two said that Li Xiaoqi could pass the customs, Li Xiaoqi was tired and had a sore back, and ordered to carry hot water in, and took a good bath comfortably, the sky was dark, Zhang Gouzi sent the bag of Jin Fu Beans in, deducted the wages, and only played forty-eight Jin Fu Beans, Li Xiaoqi held his hands full, sighed and ordered the wisteria to be packed in a thicker purse, Zhang Mama and Lu Mama took a few girls and opened all the clothes boxes, Comparing and picking a jade-colored colorful dark flower short jacket, a silver-patterned hundred-butterfly flower trolling skirt, a silver-patterned gray squirrel cloak, and picking a very simple Ruyi cloud-patterned mutton fat hosta to match, Mama Zhang took it to Li Xiaoqi to see, and explained with a smile: "The identity of the fifth master is not obvious, it is not good to wear too ostentatious clothes, if it is too plain, it is easy for people to look down on it, and it is also rude, such a dark pattern is the best, the hundred butterflies on this skirt are embroidered with the same color silk thread, the most effortful, at first glance it looks plain, and it can be seen that it is different when you move around, Although this hairpin is simple, it is a good match for the fifth master, the fifth master is born clean, and the smile is even cleaner. Li Xiaoqi took a closer look at the skirt, and sure enough, as Mama Zhang said, the butterflies on the skirt can only be seen clearly when the skirt shakes and the scene changes, Li Xiaoqi reached out and stroked the slightly protruding embroidery on the skirt, smiled and nodded.

Early the next morning, Li Xiaoqi got up to bathe and wash, sat in front of the dressing table and combed her hair, changed into the clothes she picked out yesterday, and carefully tied the purse full of red gold blessing beans, and then go to the palace gate together.

Li Xiaoqi held Wisteria's hand and got out of the car at the palace gate, Lu Hua and Lu Feng were already standing in front of the palace gate waiting, seeing Su Zicheng's car coming, they were busy smiling and catching up, Su Zicheng looked at Li Xiaoqi and got out of the car, before turning around, bowing his hand to Lu Hua, and letting Li Xiaoqi introduce with a smile: "This is Xiao Wu." ”

Li Xiaoqi hurriedly bent his knees slightly, and greeted him with a smile, Lu Feng stood behind Lu Hua, looking at Li Xiaoqi with admiration in his eyes, Xiao Wu really looks good in this dress!

Lu Hua was halfway up, straightened up, looked at Li Xiaoqi with sharp eyes, but his words were extremely polite: "Fortunately, the fifth master has a clean and easy character, and he really deserves his reputation, and he has been admired for a long time." Li Xiaoqi smiled decently with a face full of tactfulness and suppleness, lowered her eyes and bent her knees, as an elegant and supple weak woman, she could not greet him! Su Zicheng looked at Lu Feng, who was looking at his eldest brother excitedly, raised his eyebrows, and let Lu Hua take the lead in entering the palace gate with a smile.

The warrior standing at the gate of the palace stood straight, his eyes did not squint, Li Xiaoqi thought about Mama Zhang's teaching again, held his breath and concentrated, and fell gracefully to the end, passing through the palace gate, Lu Feng turned his eyes with a serious face and looked around, fell to side by side with Li Xiaoyi, and said in a low voice: "Let's sit together later!" Li Xiaoqi glanced at him speechlessly, where can he sit and stand with her?

A few small chamberlains who had been waiting in the palace gate hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to salute, and the leading chamberlain accompanied him with a smile on his face, and said respectfully: "Lord, the emperor said that Uncle Lu is not an outsider, and today is a family banquet, which is set up in Chonghua Palace." ”

"Hmm." Su Zicheng also ignored the congregation's chamberlain, turned around and smiled at Lu Hua, Li Xiaoqi looked around, and a fourteen or fifteen-year-old waiter bowed to Li Xiaoyi, and said in a clear and respectful voice: "Miss Li, Niangniang ordered to take you to Juxiu Palace to see the salute first, let's go this way." Su Zicheng turned around and stared at the little waiter, the little waiter shuddered slightly, lowered his hand and turned slightly towards Su Zicheng, Su Zicheng stared at him for a moment, turned his head to look at Li Xiaoqi and explained: "Juxiu Palace is the residence of the queen, don't be rude." Li Xiaoqi smiled and bent his knees, Su Zicheng wrinkled his brows, and watched Li Xiaoqi follow Xiao Nei and walk forward, his eyes full of unease.

Li Xiaoqi followed the little waiter unhurriedly, walked out more than ten zhang away, and said gossip with a smile: "What's your name?" How old is this year? ”

"Back girl, the little one's name is Zhao Xing, and she is fifteen years old this year." Zhao Xing replied respectfully, Li Xiaoqi looked at him carefully and quietly, lowered his voice, and asked carefully, "Are you on an errand in Juxiu Palace?" Juxiu Palace is where the mother lives, it must be very beautiful! Zhao Xing wanted to laugh and smacked back: "The small one is the rough eunuch of the Juxiu Palace, and the place where the mother lives is of course beautiful." ”

"The best place in the palace?"

"That's not it, the biggest and best looking in the palace is the Palace of Mercy and Grace."

"Really? Then who lives in the Palace of Mercy and Grace? What a blessing! ”

"Who dares to live in the Palace of Mercy and Grace? That was the first queen, the place where the first queen lived earlier. Zhao Xing's voice gradually lowered, Li Xiaoqi stuck out his tongue and said in a low voice: "Let's talk about something else, well, is Niangniang in a good mood today?" The first time I went to the palace, I was very scared! ”

"How can the little one know this, although the small one is on an errand in the Juxiu Palace, but I don't know how many layers are different from the mother, but I passed a bowl of soup medicine in the middle of the night last night, and it was designated that the emperor coughed again at night, and the emperor coughed at night, and the mother's temper was not good." Zhao Xing said in a low voice, Li Xiaoqi responded with a smile, and took out a red gold blessing bean from his purse and stuffed it into Zhao Xing's palm, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, I have to be careful later." ”

Zhao Xing looked at the golden light that Li Xiaoqi was holding in his fingertips, and he only felt heavy in the palm of his hand, his face was full of joy, he nodded and thanked him busily, and politely let Li Xiaoqi go all the way to the Juxiu Palace.
