The bottom of the leaves is dark green and light yellow. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Haggard people, red faces reflect white clothes.

At this time, in the mid-autumn season when the laurel is in full bloom, the rich but not greasy fragrance wafts among the jagged high terrace pavilions, lingering on the carved beams and painted pillars that can be seen everywhere.

There are string songs in the ears, and occasionally melodious bell chimes are embellished among them, I don't know where they came from, and I don't know if they are singing "Huansha" or playing "Flowing Water".

The early morning sun shines on the surface of the river, and the rising water vapor is really like a light veil blowing in the wind, which makes the East Palace of the Song Kingdom so quiet that it is not like the world.

This situation can be put into a painting or a poem, and it can make people think that they have entered a dream.

And next to the waterfront pavilion with red pillars and green tiles, under the osmanthus tree with yellow flowers and green leaves, there is a white-clothed Shengxue, a beautiful young man with a red face and jealousy who is sitting silently admiring the flowers.

Yin people are still white. As a nobleman of the Song Kingdom, this beautiful young man was wearing a moon-white moire collared brocade robe, a jade belt waist, a ring neck, and a hairband decorated with pearls on his head to tie the horns behind his head.

The morning light shines through the cracks of the laurel tree, and the specks fall on the flawless face, so that the fluff on the beautiful boy's face is still delicate.

At this time, he sat cross-legged on a whole piece of deerskin skin, supported himself with his hands behind him, raised his head slightly, and his eyes were half-open and half-closed, as if admiring the blooming osmanthus flowers.

It is no wonder that such a beautiful young man is a little obsessed in the eyes of the surrounding maids, only a twelve or thirteen-year-old little palace maid is a little restless, and she doesn't even dare to look up at the overly handsome prince of Song.

Ah Yuan knew that her brother was dead, and all the attendants who participated in the Childe's Soul Burning Festival that day were dead. She didn't even see her brother's corpse, it is said that these dead people were poisoned by insects, not only in a terrible death, but also a scourge to others, all of them were pulled out of the palace and burned one by one.

Therefore, a little palace maid like herself can cross several levels at one time and be promoted to the attendant of the son. It's just that......

It's just that her brother is still dead. Otherwise, he would rub his little head and say with a smile, my sister is so beautiful, as long as she can be favored by nobles, she will definitely become a wife in the palace in the future.

Thinking of this, the corners of Ah Yuan's eyes were a little sour, but she didn't dare to cry, so she had to lower her head and hide her little face in the shadows.

This little palace maid is delicate and has keen senses. In fact, compared to her elder brother who wanted to become a Zhishui Fangshi, Ah Yuan had a better chance of becoming a master of music among the Eight Cave Mingzun.

It was not easy for her father, who was a minor nobleman in Teng Kingdom, to pay her brother's tuition, but for the sake of his daughter, he finally gritted his teeth and sold the only good horse in the family, so that he could scrape together enough money to send her to study under the best wind master in the country.

It's a pity that just when Ah Yuan had just touched a little of Mingzun's doorway, the Song army came......

She was really scared of her new master. Originally, I heard everyone say that Gongzi has a good temper, as long as he doesn't disobey him, he is still very kind to his subordinates, and he will not easily punish the waiter who has made a small mistake. Aside from his childish pranks, this little nobleman is a good one to get along with.

However, after experiencing this disaster, Gongzi was stunned for the past two days, almost without saying a word. In addition to eating and sleeping, he usually likes to stay in the palace and bask in the sun, and he is completely like the lively Prince Song in the past.

Others, including his mother, Mrs. Yiyang, the young concubine of the Song Kingdom, thought that this was because he had lost some of his memories after being greatly stimulated.

Only the little palace maid with extraordinary sensitivity can discover the vicissitudes of the world on Gongziqi's body, as well as the murderous aura of the superiors. It seems that he is not a fourteen-year-old pampered aristocratic boy, but a forty-year-old middle-aged nobleman with rich experience.

Like her brother, Ah Yuan's courage was not very big, so she naturally didn't dare to tell others such careful thoughts, but became more cautious.

"Childe...... Childe, Mrs. Yiyang is here. The only one who was not deceived by the beauty of the child, the little maid did not forget her duty, she saw a figure walking in the distance, and carefully reminded herself of the little master.

"Hmm......" Childe replied softly, and then slowly opened his eyes. Sure enough, he saw the young concubine of the Song Kingdom, Mrs. Yiyang, and Uncle Xu's mother coming from afar.

The status of the young concubine in the princes and concubines (the collective name of the concubines and palace maids) is second only to the main wife, generally speaking, there is no fixed number of young concubines, and the princes want to set up a few. However, the situation of the Song palace is a bit special, Gongzi Qi is the only surviving son of Song Wangyan, so when the queen of the Song State Palace is still there, his biological mother has become the only young concubine.

Mrs. Yiyang is her title, and her Tang Muyi is in Yiyang, hence the name.

"Xu" is the name of her home country, and "Song" is the name of her husband's country, both of which can be placed at the top of the name, or they can not be used at all.

"Win" is her surname, and like Qin and Zhao, Xu's surname is also Ying, and the surname Win is actually from the Dongyi tribe, in fact, these three winning surnames are all from the same Dongyi tribe.

"Uncle" (the third child) is her ranking, "Ci" is her character, and "mother" is a woman's title.

In this era, the formal aristocratic female "life" character (not a name) format is a dispensable country name (mother country, husband country, choose one of the two, the purpose is to distinguish it from other names of the same. ) + ranking + surname + character + mother.

As a noble male, a direct descendant of the Shang and Song royal families, Gongzi actually took the surname Zi. It's just that men don't usually use this surname. The male surname is only useful when it is time to get married.

According to the rule of "no marriage with the same surname" at this time, he can't marry a woman with a son's surname, and he can't take a concubine, and even if he wants to take a woman who doesn't know his surname into the inner room, he has to hold a divination ceremony and ask God if she also has a surname.

This is called "surname, don't marry".

However, as a nobleman, as the prince of the Song Dynasty, he has many clans to choose from: first, he is a nobleman of the Song Kingdom, so he can directly choose the Song family; secondly, he is a descendant of the Dai family, one of the princes of the Song Kingdom, and he can also choose the Dai family; finally, he is the eldest son of the current king of the Song Kingdom, and he can call himself the Gongzi clan.

Generally speaking, a noble man will choose the most honorable title as his own clan, so without him announcing it himself, others will default to his current clan as "Childe".

If he has an official position in the future, such as the same big Situ as the deal, he can call Situ Qi with an official position. If he inherits his father's throne, it will be Song Wangqi or Wang Qi. Of course, if he didn't become a king and was divided into fiefs, he could also use the name of the fief as his own.

Gongziqi's mother, Shu Yingci, dressed in gorgeous palace clothes and complicated rings, walked over with a group of maids and guards Lianbu.

This noble lady is actually only in her early thirties, her appearance is very similar to Gongzi, black hair and white skin, apricot eyes and peach cheeks, starry eyes and red lips, her appearance can be called a standard, and it can even be said to be charming, no wonder she can be favored in the harem all these years.

Behind her were the retainers who rescued Gongzi that day, and they were actually relatives of the mother and son nobles.

The oldest Zhishui Fangshi Xu Mingzhi, the word Zhongbo, is not only the chief family elder of the young concubine, but also the cousin of Shu Yingci.

is in the prime of life, and the Zhenshan Junling, who looks like a small hill, is also Xu Mingshou, the word Jiyong, he and the young concubine are cousins, that is, Gongziqi's cousin.

The long hands and feet and long body of the royal general Rong belong to the Peng branch of the same origin as the Xu family, the name is Yan, and the word uncle is long.

On that day, the Yu Ze Yu official Xu who summoned the Divine Eagle was named Xiaoshi and the word Ziya. He is the son of the young concubine's brother, and he is actually the cousin of Gongziqi.

In this era, it was common for nobles and even noble women to recruit retainers and doormen, but the young concubines and these retainers were all Eight Cave Mingzun, each with extraordinary skills and outstanding art. Even if they go out of office, the treatment will not be much worse.

In fact, now Xu Di is also under the jurisdiction of the Song State, but for some reason, the Chinese people of the Xu family rarely come out of the Song State. These four Mingzun went to Shangqiu (in fact, the Song people called themselves Songcheng) to serve the young concubine, most of them because they were close relatives of Shu Yingci's family.
