Chapter 3: The Audience 2
Before dawn, Situ Nian got up and freshened up. Even the face, the thrush did not dare to be sloppy at all, today I wore a peach-pink placket tunic palace dress covered with a layer of white yarn, combed the peach heart bun according to Baolin's grade, and put a pair of gilded flowers on it, and inserted a red treasure hairpin. Today's heart is ingenious and a peach heart bun is also combed, and there are many small buns on the back of the head, with matching ruby earrings, and I took a picture in the mirror, saying that people rely on clothes, and this dress is really more beautiful than usual. packed up, drank the milk and red date tea brought by Jinxin, and hurried out of the door. Situ Su was already waiting at the door, she was dressed in a decent way today, and she was no different from usual, but she was already delicate, and she didn't need heavy makeup to be very eye-catching.
Situ Su saw his sister and said with a smile, "My sister is dressed up chic today, I'm afraid that the emperor will call my sister to sleep when he sees the first one." ”
Situ Nian's face turned red, and he spat at her, "Pure nonsense, I'm not afraid that others will listen to jokes." ”
"Where is there anyone else, besides, I'm just telling the truth!" She was still smiling
Situ Nian couldn't help but smile when he saw that his sister was still so innocent, and said solemnly: "Don't forget where this is, do you think you're still at home?" When Situ Su heard this, his face really darkened, and he stopped making a sound. Seeing her like this as a sister is a little unbearable, she is the daughter of the family, and she is also a daughter, she is beautiful and smart since she was a child, she has been doted on and pampered, and she has never heard a word of heavy words at home.
Sighing softly, Situ Nian took his sister's hand, shook it vigorously, and said, "Okay, let's go." Su'er raised her head and looked at her sister in front of her and couldn't help but smile again.
The Splendid Palace is not far from the Fengyang Palace, although it is autumn at this time, it is still early, and I don't feel hot all the way, otherwise I will be tired of sweating in this serious palace dress. When they arrived at Fengyang Palace, the two little masters had already arrived, and they came forward to greet each other, only to know that it was Zhuang Yunu and Kang Cairen, and after waiting for a while, Chen Meiren, Su Cairen, and Yang Liangren also arrived. The father-in-law of Fengyang Palace led them to the main hall and stood in two columns in order. Not long after, there were palace concubines coming one after another, and everyone didn't dare to look up, they could only hear the ringing bell, and there was a smell of fat powder all around. When the queen sat down on the top, a room of people immediately knelt down to greet the queen, and the new palace concubines continued to bow three times and nine bows to the queen.
"Flatten. The younger sisters are new to the palace, so they don't have to be too nervous, they will all serve the emperor together in the future. "The queen has just given birth, her body is still a little round, and her small face is like a silver plate, with a pair of shining eyes, a small nose, and thin red lips. Nine fairy buns are coiled, and nine golden phoenixes inlaid with pearls are decorated with them, and each golden phoenix has a pearl hanging in its mouth. Wearing a dark purple robe, there is an auspicious pattern of dragons and phoenixes, and a stone blue embroidered phoenix shawl, showing supreme dignity.
Everyone hurriedly replied: "Thank you, Niangniang!" ”
Then the new concubines in the palace asked Shugui Concubine Niangniang to say goodbye, and then Concubine De, Yue Guifei, Rou Zhaoyi, and Wan Xiuyi, and the rest were all small lords who were not in the main position.
Chu Sheng, the son of heaven in this dynasty, ascended the throne at the age of 16, changed the name of Yuanhe, because the emperor was young when he ascended the throne and got married not long ago, so there are not many pets, only one wife and two concubines, and a few girls. The main concubine is naturally the queen mother today, and one of the two side concubines is the lady of the concubine, and the other is the concubine of virtue. A few girls were not particularly favored because of their low status, so they only sealed the girl and Chongyi according to the routine.
The rest of the little masters were all drafted into the palace in the last draft. The last draft was the emperor's first draft and the main position was empty, and the heirs were even weaker, and the queen mother chose more than a dozen women to enter the palace, but there are only a few people who have survived to sit on the throne today, and there are no ones.
The only son under the emperor's knee is called Chu Wei, who was named Shu Guifei at the beginning, and entered the Feng Lady when she was pregnant, and gave birth to the emperor's eldest son and entered the Feng Guifei, which is really a mother and a child.
The two princesses were born to the queen, the queen was pregnant when the emperor ascended the throne, the emperor and queen all gave high hopes to this fetus, although the dynasty did not pay too much attention to the concubine, but if the eldest son of the emperor was born in the first year, it was also an extremely satisfying thing, but unfortunately it was a princess, but the emperor still loved it after all, it was his first child, and the eldest princess of Chunxi was crowned, and two years later the queen gave birth to a princess for the emperor, and the full moon day gave 'Lihui' the title. These are all things that I got out of yesterday Qiushui to inquire.
After paying homage to the harem concubines one by one, Situ Nian was already a little dizzy, and he only drank a few sips of milk sweet soup in the morning, and he was already hungry, but he still had to remain dignified and not show fatigue on his face. Then led by the queen to Ningshou Palace to meet the queen mother, first by the queen led all the masters into the palace to worship, the rest of the little lords are kneeling outside the palace, and then passed the new palace concubines into the palace to make a big salute, in addition to the queen mother and a few concubines were present, respectively, the gifts, everyone thanked one by one, and stood to listen to the queen mother's training for half a day, before the ceremony. It's complicated, but fortunately, there are no mistakes. Situ Nian followed the concubines out of Ningshou Palace, and when he saw Jinxin, who had been waiting for a long time, he was secretly relieved until he held Jinxin's hand.
