Chapter 47: Grapevine
Her words are also a reminder to Chen Ruyu that the palace is no better than the family, after all, they are cousins, and the trouble is just for others to see jokes.
Chen Ruyu is not stupid, when she heard this, her eyes flashed, and she smiled: "What the third sister said is true." This month, we take care of each other. ”
The two sisters talked, and when it was time for lunch, Chen Ruyu got up and went out.
During the days of living in the palace, Mao Tongtong experienced for the first time what it means to live like a year.
said that there were palace maids to serve, but it was like being monitored, and there was a grandmother to discipline him every day. At this time, Mao Tongtong realized that Mama Ai's strictness was nothing, and she was even glad and grateful to have learned the rules from Mama Ai for a year, so that she could deal with it calmly in the face of the picky grandma in the palace.
Before, she was worried that Chen Ruyu's temperament would cause conflicts with others. After staying for a few days, I found out that this probability is actually not very large. Learn the rules during the day, and when I go back to the house, there are still palace maids, except for sleeping at night, when I really don't have a moment to relax, where do I still have the heart to fight with people? Who knows how many eyes are secretly observing them in this Chuxiu Palace!
spent ten days safely, in addition to asking Concubine Hui of Chuxiu Palace, the ladies and ladies in the palace began to recruit show girls to their palace from time to time to talk.
Some of them are related to each other, and some of them are recommended by them, in short, it is for their own sons, or they want to train one or two palace assistants, so they look at each other in advance. If you like it, you can talk to each other first, so as not to have conflicts.
Mao Tongtong is not envious, she is still looking forward to going home after this round. So when other show girls said who and who was invited by which lady to speak, she sat quietly and listened, never speaking. It was Chen Ruyu who complained twice, because the show girl who lived in the same house had been called by Concubine Yi of Yikun Palace to speak twice, but she had not been summoned by any maiden to see her.
"Just because you're not summoned doesn't mean there's no hope." Mao Tongtong comforted her.
"Hey, do you know the show girl named Guo Luoluo who lives in the East Wing." Chen Ruyu suddenly said a little mysteriously: "I heard that it was appointed to the eighth elder brother to be the heir of the blessing!" It seems to be the granddaughter of Prince An! ”
Mao Tongtong was taken aback, the Eight Blessings in history? That's right, the eighth elder brother she saw last time was sixteen or seventeen years old, and it stands to reason that he should really get married. I vaguely remember that the middle eight blessings are all women who dare to love and hate, and they are favored by the eighth master, but I didn't expect to be the same show girl as her!
"Is it good-looking?" She suddenly became curious.
"You live in a hospital every day, and you don't pay attention?" Chen Ruyu glanced at her with disdain and said, "It's the show girl who always has her head raised and looks down on people." I didn't think she was so good-looking. ”
"It seems that he is very arrogant!" Mao Tongtong sighed that this kind of temperament is easy to dislike.
"What is there to be proud of. I see, the news of the inner order must be false. I haven't heard of any prince's concubine Fujin marrying an orphan daughter who has no father and no mother! Chen Ruyu said with a mean face.
"Huh? How do you know? Mao Tongtong was stunned and looked at Chen Ruyu with some surprise.
Chen Ruyu looked at her a little speechlessly, and said, "Don't you have contact with people these days?" These things have been known for a long time! I heard that she Ama has also committed crimes! You say, with such a woman, the emperor will want her to be his daughter-in-law? I still look down on others all day long, I really don't know what capital is proud! ”
Mao Tongtong did not study history in his previous life. Regarding the deeds of Kangxi's sons, most of them are from TV and Li. It's the first time I've heard of such a thing as having no father or mother.
But now that she has listened to Chen Ruyu's analysis, she feels that it makes some sense. Even in modern times, orphan girls without fathers and mothers may be picked on by the man's parents when they marry, let alone the ancient prince? And I heard that the eighth elder brother was still very favored by Kangxi in his early years, so it stands to reason that he would not refer to such a blessing.
Of course, no matter who does the Beatitudes, it has nothing to do with her, and she will not have a chance to deal with it in the future. Thinking of this, she said to Chen Ruyu: "These news are true or false, even if you hear it." If she is proud, let her be proud, let's just not provoke. After this month, I may not see each other for the rest of my life. ”
Chen Ruyu glanced at her and said, "Look at you coward." Of course I know the severity, isn't that what I'm telling you! I see you, this round had better be brushed down, otherwise, it will be a bullied life! ”
Although he was despised again, Mao Tongtong was very happy this time, and said to Chen Ruyu with a smile: "Accept your auspicious words, it is best to brush it down!"
"Hmph, you're self-aware." Chen Ruyu glanced at her, got up and went back to her room.
On the second day, as soon as Mao Tongtong got up, he heard the palace maid who served them say that there was no need to learn the rules today, and they could go to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers.
It was a bonus. These days, he was detained in Chuxiu Palace, which was more restrained than in Uncle Chen's house. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to visit the garden today, and it was not in vain to enter the palace to live for a month.
Although the show girls are wearing the same flag costumes, Mao Tongtong still paints herself a different makeup. Spring flowers, think about it is a beautiful thing, dress up a little more beautiful, can also make the mood of many days dull relaxed.
The show girl in the same room also showed a rare shy smile, and begged Mao Tongtong to draw one for her too.
When he got out of the house, Mao Tongtong found that there were already many show girls standing in the yard, and everyone was in good spirits, no longer the serious faces of the past.
Before leaving, Mama came out to lecture as usual, nothing more than not to walk around and bump into nobles, and only allowed to move within the imperial garden. And when the hour came, a eunuch would bring them back.
The show girls naturally responded in a proper manner, but their bright eyes revealed their excited mood.
When they entered the Imperial Garden, everyone was not a regular team, but began to enjoy the flowers in twos and threes.
Because his only roommate went to his fellow countrymen, Mao Tongtong, an unsociable person, could only enjoy the flowers alone. She didn't go to Chen Ruyu, she didn't talk more than half a sentence, it was better to be pure.
The royal garden is really different. Pavilions and pavilions, a hundred flowers are blooming, and today's spring is bright, which makes people feel comfortable.
Begonias, roses, cherry blossoms, and all kinds of beautiful flowers are blooming, and it is dizzying to see. She took a deep breath and felt the sweet scent of flowers even in the air.
"Ouch, you have to watch the road to enjoy the flowers!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Mao Tongtong was fascinated for a while, but he didn't notice that he had bumped into someone.
"It's really from a small place, and I haven't seen the world." The showgirl who was hit sneered.
