160, sandpiper clam fight (1)
Yuan Yingyue gently blew the heat on the tea soup and said, "This is a health recipe that my father found in the past, soak the safflower in vinegar, then dry it with a simmer, grind it into powder, and when the tea is collected, add a penny and a half of tea leaves to add a penny of this safflower powder, plus gynostemma, salvia, tulip, peach kernel and so on more than a dozen herbs and ingredients, and a little purple sugar." This ingredient can boil four bubbles of water, the first bubble of flavor has not yet come out, can not drink, the remaining three bubbles are here. For the Queen Mother, it is the second bubble with the best taste. ”
Hearing the word "red flower", Feng Miao instinctively shrank her hand, which was something used by the people for abortion.
As if to confirm that this is indeed a nourishing and healthy prescription, Yuan Yingyue took a sip of it herself before saying with a smile, "Sister, don't be nervous, safflower is indeed easy to cause pregnant people to slip the fetus, but this is just because safflower has the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis." People who are not pregnant usually drink some safflower tea, which is very good for the body. Drinking this tea for the elderly is especially helpful for recuperation, blessing and longevity. My grandmother, who is in her fifties this year, drinks a cup of safflower tea every afternoon, and now her ears and eyes are clear, and she walks like a fly. ”
The Empress Dowager picked up the teacup and tasted it, with a bit of approval in her tone, "Not to mention the efficacy, just the taste is also very good." ”
Yuan Yingyue heard the Empress Dowager's praise herself, and immediately bent down with a happy face, "If the Empress Dowager likes it, the concubines can often come to the Fengyi Hall to serve." She still had the shyness and shyness she had when she first entered the palace, because the Queen Mother was overjoyed with a word of praise.
Feng Miao couldn't see whether she really didn't know anything, or deliberately used this tea to tempt, she was extra careful with this child, and it was not impossible that there were any flaws in her actions. She picked up the teacup and brought it to her lips, moved it away, shook the teacup gently with both hands, and asked Yuan Yingyue, "Listen to what my sister said, this tea is difficult to make, right?" ”
Yuan Yingyue lowered her head and tried her best to restrain the smug look on her face, "It's nothing else, it's just that the safflower used here is rarer, because it is to be presented to the Empress Dowager, and the concubine specially brought the newly made safflower powder today, and put it all into the tea." ”
Feng Miao smiled and nodded, "Sister, I'm really bothered." As she spoke, she put the teacup to her lips, and the wide sleeves seemed to unintentionally flick on the couch beside her, just taking off a painting silk with the style of an official uniform. Feng Miao exclaimed, and was about to reach out to pick up the painting silk, but as soon as her body was crooked, the hot tea soup in the tea cup poured out, and she let go of her hand.
There was a crisp sound of "pop", and the small white porcelain cup fell to the ground and broke into several pieces. Feng Miao rubbed her red and blistering fingers, and said apologetically, "I have failed Sister Yuan's good tea, and when I have the opportunity another day, let me go to my sister's Feihong Hall and taste this tea again." ”
Honeysuckle hurriedly stepped forward to sweep away the debris, and helped Feng Miao rub the ointment on his fingers. Feng Miao quietly paid attention to Yuan Yingyue's expression, but she didn't see her look of disappointment, but saw her helping Honeysuckle find ointment and gauze with a concerned face.
As soon as she was packed, Aunt Cui came in with a few hand-copied scriptures and unfolded them for the Empress Dowager to see. Since there was such a disturbance in Zhixue, Feng Qing has been grounded in the Shunhe Hall to copy scriptures. The Empress Dowager read her love affair with her aunt and nephew, and asked Aunt Cui to visit her every few days, and brought back the copied scriptures by the way.
The words on the scripture are large and square, and every stroke is written uprightly, which is very rare for a person with a temperament like Feng Qing. The Empress Dowager said lightly, "Hmm", and said to Aunt Cui, "Put it away, take the time to tell Qing'er, it's good to copy some small characters." ”
That kind of small character is the most depleting temperament, it seems that the Empress Dowager is indeed angry this time, and she must take a good look at Feng Qing's temper.
Aunt Cui just sat for a while, and then hurried to the sixth inning. Yuan Yingyue also found an excuse and went with Aunt Cui. Feng Miao was about to get up and say goodbye, but was stopped by the Empress Dowager and said that she had a few words to ask her. Feng Miao naturally couldn't refuse, sat on the edge of the bed, and beat the shoulders for the Queen Mother.
The room was silent, and Feng Miao only noticed at this time that the Fengyi Hall, which was rarely used even with silver silk charcoal in previous years, had been burning the earth dragon this year, and it was also burning warm incense. If it is said that it is for the eldest son of the emperor, it is not all like that, for example, at this moment, the eldest son of the emperor is taken by the nurse to play in the side hall, and there is only the queen mother in the main hall.
Feng Miao lowered her head and didn't say a word, but she secretly sighed in her heart, the Empress Dowager is also an elderly person after all, and she must be afraid of the cold on her body, so she has to burn the inner hall warm like spring. No matter how stoic and powerful a person is, he still can't withstand the blunt knife of time.
After a long time, the Empress Dowager spoke, "The emperor rested in your Huayin Hall last night?" ”
Feng Miao let out a soft "um", knowing that the Empress Dowager was asking another meaning, but she didn't say anything.
"The emperor is willing to be close to you," the empress dowager's voice was already a little old, with a rustling voice, "In the Baishan Mountain Palace, I heard that you would rather fight for your own life than save the emperor and fall off the cliff with the emperor?" ”
Feng Miao was shocked in her heart, and a little sweat appeared on her body for no reason, saying yes is to admit that she has feelings for the emperor, which is naturally not the situation that the empress dowager wants to see. To say no is to be faithful. She didn't expect that the Empress Dowager was in the deep palace, but she was still deaf and clear-sighted.
"The beasts are so mad that even the guards can't do anything about them. I was the closest to the emperor at the time, and I was really frightened, so I just took out the dagger I was carrying, and I couldn't move at all......" Feng Miao pondered the situation at that time and carefully explained the situation at that time.
The Empress Dowager said "um" and said, "Hong'er is usually good to you, if you only care about yourself and escape, it will be too embarrassing for the Feng family." I heard that Hong'er allowed you to enter and leave the Sogo Palace freely in the past, and it seems that you did fall in love with him. ”
Feng Miao didn't dare to say a word, and the fact that the Empress Dowager didn't ask didn't mean that she didn't know anything. By the time she wanted to bring it up, everything was clear and there was no room for quibbles.
"You have spent so much time with Hong'er, the mourning family remembered for a while, there is something to ask you," the Empress Dowager opened her eyes, her eyes were so sharp that they didn't look like a deep palace woman at all, "Usually, apart from the internal secretary Ling, the King of Guangyang and the former King Shiping, who else often goes in and out of the Sogo Palace?" ”
Feng Miao stroked her chest, it turned out to be a tension that she hadn't felt for a long time. The Empress Dowager meant to tell her which people were sincerely loyal to the emperor.
"When the emperor asked me to go, most of them didn't come, and Miao'er didn't know that her aunt cared about this, and she didn't pay special attention to this matter." Feng Miao replied cautiously, for fear that if she said something wrong, it would make the Empress Dowager suspicious.
"Well, since I didn't pay attention to it before, let's pay more attention in the future." The Empress Dowager said casually as if unintentionally, "Shu'er has thirteen, right?" I heard that he went to Zhixue every ten days to listen to lectures, and asked him to come to the Fengyi Hall to sit when he had time, and the mourning family had not seen him for many years. ”
Feng Miao responded with a "yes", and her underwear was almost wet with cold sweat. The Empress Dowager didn't open her mouth, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she pinched her weakness. Before she had this child in her womb, the person she cared about the most was her brother. The blank paper-like temperament of the young brother is like a lamb falling into the wolves in the palace, and he has no ability to protect himself.
"Go ahead, accompany the emperor more in the past few days, and come to see the mourning family in a few days." The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and waved, but left those few pictures without mentioning them. Feng Miao saluted, forcibly suppressed his steps and withdrew from the Fengyi Palace.
As soon as she left the temple gate, she held on to a thick locust tree and retched repeatedly, and Honeysuckle helped her to smooth her back, and she didn't ask a word in a funny way. Feng Miao pressed her lower abdomen, and her fingers gradually tightened. Whether it is for her brother or for this child, she can no longer be afraid, weak and hesitant.
Feng Miao's sketch of the Han official uniform left in the Fengyi Hall was transferred to Yuan Yingyue within a few days. The Empress Dowager asked her to make a batch of new official uniforms according to the colors and styles on the pattern, and reward them for the clan relatives to wear on the Spring Society Day. During the Spring Festival, the land god is worshipped, and the emperor and queen usually preside over the sacrifice, and most of the people who participate are relatives of close branches of the royal family.
As soon as Yu Xing got the news, he called the trustworthy little palace maid and quietly came to tell Feng Miao. The little palace maid spoke breathlessly for a long time, and Feng Miao only replied to her with four words - "keep improving".
"Niangniang, are you too kind," Honeysuckle was so anxious that he couldn't choose to speak, "It's just a matter of telling Yu Xing to listen to Yuan Fangyi in everything, why do you still tell Yu Xing to try her best to help her do a good job now?" ”
Feng Miao just shook her head, held back the boredom in her chest, and took a small bite of the fish soup, "You just have to wait and see, Yuan Yingyue won't be proud for long." I don't worry about that little palace maid, you take the time to go to the weaving and dyeing workshop again, let Yu Xing be sure to use the best raw materials, carefully weave, every piece of cloth, Yuan Fangyi personally set what color to dye, and then do it. You tell her that slow work can produce fine work. ”
The fish tasted fishy, Feng Miaocai ate half a bowl, and then leaned on the edge of the table and vomited pale. When the unbearable vomiting passed, she pointed to the small bowl on the table and said, "Help me fill some more, I heard that if you eat more fish, the child will be very smart." Honeysuckle held the small bowl and fled into the small kitchen, and when he started to serve the fish soup, tears fell on the back of his hand. She didn't dare to think that if she couldn't keep this child, wouldn't she have stripped Feng Miao's heart and liver alive......
Feng Miao hid for more than ten days under the pretext of a recurrence of her back injury, ignoring all the miscellaneous matters outside the hall. In the past ten days, he has only done two things, one is to go to the Sogo Palace every few days, and polish the ink and add fragrance to him when Tuoba Hong is in politics or studying. The other is to draw some strange patterns, and ask Yu Xing to follow them, without being particular about the materials, but the style and color must not be wrong in the slightest.
After the Tuoba royal family recognized themselves as Emperor Xuanyuan, even their surnames came from the word "Houtu", so they attached great importance to the Spring Shrine Day that worshiped the land god. When there were still three days before the Spring Festival Day, the weaving and dyeing workshop finally made this batch of new clothes and presented them to the Empress Dowager.
Feng Miao asked Honeysuckle to help her put on makeup carefully, cover her haggard complexion with rouge, and go to the Fengyi Palace. She looked at Honeysuckle's hand in the bronze mirror, and said with a smile: "Haven't you always been unconvinced, Yuan Yingyue took over the weaving and dyeing workshop?" Today, I will let you get your wish and watch a good show. ”
