Chapter Thirty-Eight: Entering the Palace
In the blink of an eye, another five days passed, and nothing special happened, but Jia Rong needed to pretend to be filial in the mourning hall, and Jia Rong felt that she was about to vomit.
Thinking that she would have to keep filial piety for the next three years, Jia Rong felt that she was going crazy, and after the death of her relatives, she stopped entertaining and socializing before the service was full, expressing her condolences, which is filial piety.
In fact, it is not three years, but twenty-seven months, and after 100 days, it will be much more relaxed, and the most difficult thing is the first 100 days.
You can't wash your face for the first three days, you can't bathe for the first seven days, you can't cut your hair for 49 days, and you can't have sex for 100 days.
Today is the seventh day, Jia Rong hasn't taken a bath for seven days, her body is slimy, it's really difficult, and even You Shi and Wang Xifeng are not very willing to approach him.
Shouxiao is mainly aimed at his son, and there is not much restraint for a childless woman like You, so You can bathe, and only Jia Rong is the one who suffers.
The corrupt feudal society has set some rules.
Sometimes I can't stand it anymore, Jia Rong rubs it with her hands, and when she rubs it, she rubs out some small leg-stretching and staring pills, and she doesn't know if it will eat people to death, Jia Rong throws the balls out with great disgust.
Jia Rong put her hands on her chin, and was melancholy, when someone came in to report: "Uncle Xiao Rong, someone is looking for you." ”
Who is it, there are still people coming to me at this time.
Immediately, Jia Rong followed the little maid all the way, arrived at the hall, and saw Yu Qian sitting on a chair drinking tea, Jia Rong shouted, "Teacher, you are here." ”
When Yu Qian saw Jia Rong, he stood up, walked over and patted Jia Rong's shoulder and comforted: "Mourning is smooth, birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable for everyone, don't think too much." ”
"I went out to run errands a few days ago, and I only came back yesterday, so I came late, your father went, and you will have to provoke the beam in the future."
"Students know, teachers don't have to worry." Jia Rong smiled and asked Yu Qian to sit down, Jia Rong knew that Yu Qian didn't like tea and liked to drink, so she instructed someone: "Go and get some wine to quench my teacher's thirst." ”
"Yes." The servant turned and departed.
Yu Qian waved his hand and replied: "It's not necessary, now that you have something at home, I drink as soon as I come, what is this like, besides, I still have something to do, and it's not too late to drink next time." ”
"Come back, since my teacher doesn't drink, forget it." Jia Rong shouted to the servant who went to get the wine, and then turned back to Qian and said, "Then teacher, I will accompany you to drink tea." ”
Looking at Jia Rong's haggard face, Yu Qian also felt pitiful in his heart, he lost his mother at a young age and his father at a young age, presumably this must have been a big blow to Jia Rong, and I hope he will not be decadent in the future.
"It's good if you can relax, don't worry, I'll try to help you find the murderer." Yu Qian asked after sighing slightly.
This sentence made Jia Rong feel stunned, but fortunately, her face was still calm, she rubbed her eyes and pretended to wipe her tears and replied: "The student is grateful to the teacher, but the teacher is usually busy, and the student's family affairs still don't bother the teacher, and my grandfather is already doing this." ”
Yu Qian nodded and agreed: "Well, I forgot about your grandfather, he was in the Criminal Department before he resigned, and he must be much better at finding murderers than I am, so I won't interfere indiscriminately." ”
Jia Rong knew that Jia Jing was still in the Criminal Department before, no wonder no one had found any clues after so many days.
It turns out that the reason is actually here, after a long time, the prisoner turned out to be the law enforcer himself, how to solve this case.
Besides, with the relationship between Jia Jing and Jia Zhen, as long as he is more hidden, no one will naturally suspect him, and after thinking about this clearly, Jia Rong suddenly felt a lot more relieved.
Yu Qian continued to ask, "Are you still busy today?" ”
Jia Rong thought for a while, and then she replied: "There is probably nothing to do today, and everything that needs to be done has almost been done." ”
Yu Qian was relieved when he heard this, he just finished his errands today and came to Jia Rong to find something, if Jia Rong couldn't leave, he had to personally ask for a reward for Jia Rong later.
Yu Qian said: "It's okay, the mandarin duck array has been completed, and the emperor ordered me to take you to see it." ”
Jia Rong was happy in her heart, since the Mandarin Duck Formation had been completed, and the emperor must have seen the strength of the Mandarin Duck Array, then the Japanese Kou didn't have to worry anymore, and the Japanese Kou could cripple them when they came back.
Although Jia Rong was happy in her heart, she couldn't show it, and said as usual on the surface: "Then teacher, let's go quickly, don't make the emperor wait for a long time." ”
Finally able to go out for a walk, Jia Rong felt that she was about to suffocate, and after speaking, her steps moved, and she was caught by Yu Qian before she could walk twice.
Yu Qian pulled Jia Rong back and said, "What are you in a hurry, go take a bath first, you can't go to see the emperor dirty, although you have a reason, but who can guarantee that the emperor will not be disgusted when he sees you like this." ”
Jia Rong was even happier when he heard that he could take a bath, he had already wanted to wash the sticky feeling on his body, but he didn't expect to go to the emperor to fulfill his wish to take a bath in advance in the past few days.
Leaving Yu Qian temporarily, he returned to his courtyard, and finally washed his body white and clean under the service of the maid, and instantly felt that the whole person was much more comfortable, and finally got on the carriage to the palace with Yu Qian.
The Dayue Palace in Chang'an City is magnificent and shocking, and it is built on the ruins of the Tang Dynasty Imperial Palace.
Most of the Dayue Imperial Palace was also established in accordance with the Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty, the scale of the imperial palace is very large, and the palace city is rectangular if viewed from the sky.
The whole palace is divided into two parts: the palace and the government office, the government office is basically in the south of the first line of the Xuanzheng Gate, and the north belongs to the 'forbidden middle', which is the emperor's living area, and its layout is centered on the Tai liquid pool and is surrounded by columns, which is flexible and free according to the terrain.
The north of the palace city is the forbidden garden area, the forbidden garden is often called the harem, the palace concubines and high-ranking palace maids and female officials live here, and other men in the forbidden garden can not enter except the emperor.
I don't know if I have the opportunity to go in and see what it looks like in my life, and see if the emperor's concubines are all as beautiful as fairies.
"What are you thinking?" Yu Qian looked at Jia Rong's absent-minded appearance, and asked with some curiosity.
Jia Rong thought for a moment and replied: "Teacher, I think that the eldest aunt who has entered the palace in the West Mansion at home should also live in the forbidden garden of this palace, and I don't know how she is doing." ”
Yu Qian warned Jia Rong when he heard this: "Don't worry about this, the water in the harem is very deep, and it is not easier to mix than officialdom in this deep palace, it is not something you can mix, and you don't know how to die if you think about it too much." ”
"Students follow the teacher's teachings!" Jia Rong thanked her.
Indeed, don't think too much about it, which of the forbidden gardens can be entered by yourself, and which emperor has a man in the backyard of his house, unless that man becomes a eunuch.
Jia Rong felt a chill when she thought of this little little Rong, she didn't want to be a eunuch, she didn't think about it too much, it was terrible.
