Volume 5 White Blade Chapter 56 Little Chinese New Year's Eve
In the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year's Eve on December 23, and on this day, Zhaosheng held a banquet in Cining Palace, inviting harem concubines and clan daughters.
At the banquet, under the surface of happiness, there is a hidden jealousy.
Originally, Tong Ruohua wanted to dance, but it was temporarily replaced by Jing Hao Fuqin. provoked Tong Ruofei to be angry and had nowhere to spill, so he could only sit in his place stupidly and drink sullenly.
More than a month has passed since the quiet and good things have happened, and it is easy for Tong Ruohua to have a chance to come out of the Chengqian Palace to breathe. I originally wanted to win Xuan Ye's favor on Chinese New Year's Eve, but I didn't expect to be cut off by Jinghao. Several times, Tong Ruohua didn't have a chance to show himself.
Today, except for Xuan Ye's favor and sitting with him, only Han Ji sat next to Zhao Sheng. The rest of the people sat according to their positions. But halfway through the hour, because Zhang Jiachuzhen caused nausea and nausea and other symptoms to food, he immediately checked with the imperial doctor and unexpectedly found that she happened to be pregnant. This time, Zhang Jia Chuzhen was extremely generous, and the position she was sitting on immediately moved from the last side to the other side of Xuan Ye, all of which aroused envy and jealousy.
Siruk Evian looked at Han Ji sitting next to Zhaosheng, and then looked coldly at Xue Mi sitting next to him.
"They are both Guerjia's surnames, and they are also the daughters of the governor of Sichuan, why are you two sisters one in the sky and one on the ground?" Siruk Evian angrily drank the wine in his hand.
Xue Mi glanced at her and snorted coldly, "Why did Chang Fujin bother to say such sour words? Now that even the power of the palace has fallen into the hands of my sister, Chang Fujin can sit here and share the family, which is already the grace of the empress dowager. ”
"Kaien?" Siruk Evian said disdainfully: "You sisters don't have any good things, if it weren't for you, why wouldn't I even be able to see the face of the prince all day long?" ”
"On such a good day today, the prince doesn't sit next to us, but pulls Prince Gong to sit on the other side, Chang Fujin never thought about it, and he doesn't want to see you like this today? On the contrary, it even burdened me, and I couldn't say more than half a word to the prince. Xue Mi didn't want to argue with her, so she wanted to sit here quietly to eat, drink and watch the play, but she didn't expect her to provoke an incident.
"Speaking of which, since you entered the palace, the prince has never spoiled you once. Poor and pitiful, why should I bother with you. After all, you are not your sister and cannot be favored. It wasn't the first time Siruk Evian had said this, but today it was stuck in Xue Mi's heart.
was about to talk back, but saw a big-bellied woman standing up on the other side, and Siruk Evian no longer looked at her, but looked away, and didn't want to talk to her anymore, so he had to give up, take the wine glass, sip after sip, and calm himself.
"Ancestor, Emperor, the concubine is pregnant, and she is not strong enough to drink, so I can only toast you with water instead of wine, and I wish you all a long and healthy life." Because Wan Liuhai Yiyi was pregnant and approaching the delivery period, she was specially allowed to sit next to Yunyue and be taken care of by Yunyue. Halfway through the feast, she was tired, and it was time for her to go back to rest.
"Well, Ryu promised to have a heart. Now that you are heavy, go back to bed sooner. Zhaosheng instructed with concern: "Concubine, you personally send her back." ”
Yunyue immediately got up, responded, and personally helped Wan Liuhai Yiyi to leave.
"Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, I got such good news again, and the mourning family is really happy." Seeing Yunyue and them leave, Zhaosheng came back to his senses and said to Zhang Jia Chuzhen: "Zhen promised to go back earlier, such an occasion is not suitable for pregnant women to stay for a long time." ”
"Yes." Zhang Jia Chuzhen was a little reluctant in her heart, but it was the first time she was sitting here as the master, and she had easily become the object of envy of everyone. But Zhaosheng had already spoken, and Wan Liuhai Yiyi had already left, so she could only leave.
As soon as the two pregnant women left, the scene became lively again, and Tong Ruohua easily got the opportunity to show her talent in front of everyone.
If you talk about talent, in addition to Han Ji and Chunxi, there is also the concubine Hesheli Jinyu who has been put into the cold palace, only Tong Ruohua is the best.
It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a talented woman. Although she is not proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and dance, she is also a girl with both ability and political integrity.
Tong Ruohua's poetry is right, calligraphy and painting, all belong to the top, can be called a masterpiece. Although the dance is not as charming as Han Ji, it is also on par with Chunxi.
Today, Tong Ruohua only danced once, which attracted a lot of praise. Tong Ruohua was overjoyed, and thought about writing blessings for Zhaosheng, and showed off his words again.
Chun Xi couldn't help but sigh in her heart, if Tong Ruohua had been born ten years earlier, it was not Tong Ruofei who entered the palace with Empress Renxiao and Empress Xiaozhao, but her, I am afraid that it would be Tong Ruohua who won the throne today.
A woman like Tong Ruohua is actually what Xuan Ye likes. Although Tong Ruohua is a little pampered, her daughter, some of her temper is also normal. It's a pity that Xuan Ye already has a stunner, even a stunner like Han Ji, and he can't be seen. Tong Ruohua's talent can only be submerged in the deep palace.
Tong Ruofei is very satisfied with Tong Ruohua's performance today, as long as Tong Ruohua is favored, it is better than anything else. Zhang Jia Chuzhen is already pregnant, so naturally she can't sleep. Wang Tianru has always been displeased, and the rest of the concubines who are attached to him are not loved by Xuan Ye. If Tong Ruohua shines today and makes Xuan Ye look up to her, it will be the luck of the Tong family.
After all, Tong Ruohua is the Tong family, her own sister. No matter how favored others are, they are not as good as their own sisters.
Jing Hao looked at Tong Ruohua on the stage indignantly, and all the lights she had at the beginning were all covered. Go first Zhang Jia Chuzhen is pregnant, which robs her of brilliance, and now Tong Ruohua is performing on stage, completely comparing her.
Jing Hao couldn't help but touch his face, could it be that except for this face similar to Empress Renxiao, there was nothing else that could get into Xuan Ye's eyes?
Jing Hao didn't want to believe it, but seeing Xuan Ye's eyes looking at Tong Ruohua, he liked it a little more than he looked at himself, and he was quite annoyed in his heart.
sullen and angry, drinking wine, tears in his eyes, but he could only turn his back, wipe away his tears, and then barely squeeze out a smile to cheer for Tong Ruohua.
Tong Ruohua had just received the reward, and happily said a toast, when he saw Ning Er beside Yunyue hurrying back, kneeling in the center and saying anxiously: "On the way back when the concubine sent Liu, Liu's promise was moved, and I am afraid that she is going to give birth." ”
"Hurry up and let the imperial doctors and midwives go over, and just leave a imperial doctor in Cining Palace to guard it." Knowing that Ning'er came back and forth, it was because of today's feast, and the doctors of the Tai Hospital were all staying here. At this time, he could only get the permission of Zhaosheng, and he had to let the imperial doctor rush to it as soon as possible.
Zhao Sheng's command immediately made the surrounding imperial doctors move.
"It seems that today is not only a joy and a joy, but also a triple happiness." Xuan Ye laughed heartily, and for a while, everyone forgot about Tong Ruohua's performance just now, and congratulated Xuan Ye and Zhaosheng one after another.
The next day, Wan Liuhai gave birth to a son. Happy New Year, Xuan Ye was specially rewarded, and Jin Feng was always there.
In the Yikun Palace, Chunxi sat on the dressing table and flipped through the booklet handed over by Miyi, and every page in it was painted with the same jewelry that Chunxi had, which was vivid and vivid, just like the real thing.
For so many years, the rewards received by Chunxi in Yikun Palace, or during the New Year's Festival, some people came to ask for gifts from errands, and Chunxi's jewelry was more than Zhaosheng's jewelry in Cining Palace. For the sake of convenience, Chunxi personally drew the style, so that Muhui and Miyi were registered in the register, which was easy to manage and easy for Chunxi to choose.
"Just these three, you can show the book of earrings to the palace." Chun Xi selected three headdresses on the booklet, handed the booklet in his hand to Mu Hui, turned his head and said to Miyi: "You changed the robe that Bengong was going to wear today, and replaced it with the one that was rewarded by the ancestors yesterday, Bengong thinks that it is good to wear these headdresses." If you choose shoes for this palace, you must wear those clothes. ”
"Slave and maid, go now." Miyi turned her head and went out, went to the darkroom where the clothes were stored, and according to her memory, she took the clothes from the cabinet and handed them to the palace maid behind her: "Send them to the mother first, and I'll look for the shoes again." ”
The little palace maid came in with a lacquer plate, and when she saw the clothes in her lacquer plate, she said happily: "This is the one, quickly change it for the palace." ”
Mu Hui immediately stepped forward, changed her clothes, and suggested: "The slave maid thinks that the body chosen by the mother today is in line with the pair of pearl earrings that the mother got on the day of the Laba Festival. ”
"Well, with your reminder, this palace also thinks it's okay. Those pair of earrings, the palace only wore them once, and then put them in the box, which is really a pity. Chunxi nodded, and remembered that it was a pity that he had so many jewelry, so he ordered: "After a while, the palace will visit Liu, and it will be good to accompany you." You take a look in the dark room, those ornaments that are not often worn in the palace, you choose some and give them to the Yikun Palace. Yesterday just passed the New Year, and it will be a New Year in a few days, so you should prepare their rewards first. On the thirtieth day, reward them. ”
Mu Hui responded: "The slave maid thanked the mother for their grace first." ”
"Don't be stingy, at least two pieces per person. If they like it, they wear it, and don't always be afraid of people outside. Chun Xi admonished again: "Especially the palace maids, all of them are like flowers and jade, and they should have dressed up well." On weekdays, the rules are there, they just love beauty, and they don't dare to wear more. But now for the New Year, let them all dress up nicely. ”
"Slaves and maids should do as they please." Mu Hui only felt funny, she saved it for her, but she was a big deal. In the darkroom, many things have not been used once, so is it possible to pick them out and give them away?
Yikun Palace has been spending the New Year, and everyone is dressed in fancy clothes, I am afraid that it will cause people to speak again.
Miyi came in with her shoes in her hand, and just when she heard them talking, she hurriedly said, "That lady should let the slave maid choose first." ”
"Well, you'll be back in a moment, take your pick. You don't have to ask about the palace, you can wear it if you like it. "Chunxi has always been not stingy, and the rewards of Yikun Palace during the New Year and the festival have always been the most and best. And Mu Hui and Miyi, who have what they want and like, they all appreciate each other, and they never hesitate.
