The winter in Beijing is not as good as that in Wuzhou, and it is very fast to cool down, and even this season is longer than that in the south. Luo Meixuan's charcoal fire has never been broken.

The palace people of Luomei Xuan responded to the palace people who sent charcoal and found a place to store it.

The two palace maids put down the bamboo basket, and one of them sighed, "It's just winter, and Your Majesty is so close to Mei Xuan." A few of us who were waiting were also stained. ”

"But no, I'm afraid that the white girl in Cining Palace is going to be envious," the other patted the ash on his hand, "But it's such a favorite, why don't you see it again, but keep asking Chonghua Palace to suppress it." ”

Sakura Fan made a silent gesture in his little jacket, and his tone was nervous, "The master has a close relationship with that lady, don't talk nonsense."

It's easy to find a good day today, The Queen Mother summoned a group of concubines to watch the play in the theater.

Ruan Yuyi put on a feather forging cloak and walked out, just as the people in the imperial dining room brought food.

The little eunuch smiled, his face full of joy, as if it was a great good thing to send something for her, "Little master, Your Majesty ordered the servant to send this flat food, and it is not too late for you to use it." ”

Mu Xiang took the food box. Ruan Yuyi opened it, stirred it with a spoon, and the flat food inside collided and swam like pearls.

She looked at the little eunuch, "Why did you suddenly send this?" ”

He lowered his hand and replied with a smile, "Little master, it's the winter solstice, don't you have to eat this?"

She was in a trance for a moment. It turned out that it was the winter solstice, and it had been some time since she entered the palace. But these days, whether good or bad, pass by in the same way, without regard to the face, and without waiting for anyone.

- I don't know if A-Niang's side also made this flat food, and what happened recently.

The broken silver she gave sent the little eunuch away.

The porcelain bowl was full of flat food, and she thought about eating it with Mu Xiang and Mu Ling.

Mu Xiang turned around and knocked on the door to come in, "Miss, this Mu Ling doesn't know where she ran again, and I didn't see her." The slave asked, and the people next to him said that they had never seen it. ”

She rubbed her hands, and Fang Jue's meridians on her hands were more active. I don't know what kind of drama fan the Queen Mother is, and on this cold day, she has to pull people from the palace to accompany her to suffer the wind.

Ruan Yuyi didn't think much about it, but said, "Then I'll leave some for her." ”

Mu Xiang replied, "When she comes back, the slave will definitely talk to her, It's really getting more and more indulgent." ”

When they arrived at the theater, several concubines were seated, all dressed up, but the queen mother was nowhere to be seen.

She tucked her hands into the wide sleeves of her coat, which warmed up a lot. Originally, it was said that it was with a sleeve, but the concubine next to her didn't use this thing, if she used it alone, it would inevitably be criticized.

So I gave up.

Bai Zhiqi also came, she sat in the middle position, beckoned to Ruan Yuyi, pinched her soft voice, "Sister Ruan, come quickly, leave a place for you." ”

Ruan Yuyi looked around and found that because there were few concubines in the palace, there was also space here, where was she needed to leave a place.

She didn't break Bai Zhiqi, but only refused gently. Turning his head to meet Concubine Shu's gaze, he gathered his cloak and sat down with her. She breathed a sigh of relief and hid her hand in her sleeve again.

Concubine Shu glanced at her sideways, and naturally gossiped with her, "It's a strange day this year, it's colder than in previous years. ”

"It wasn't like that before?" She is no better than Concubine Shu and they grew up in Beijing, so she doesn't know very well.

Concubine Shu turned the bracelet on her wrist, "My sister is from Southern Province?" In previous years, there was no need for feather forging at this time. ”

Although it is sunny, the sunshine that falls is as moist as water, and it can't bring a bit of warmth.

The two talked back and forth, chatting from this cold day to the flat food of the solstice.

She looked for a free time and wanted to ask about the osmanthus cake. His lips twitched, and he suddenly felt unnecessary. Concubine Shu never said that there was anything that should not be put there, and she only asked her to send it to His Majesty, and it was her own nonsense from beginning to end.

Now I asked, but it ruined the atmosphere.

Just thinking about this, a palace maid brought a booklet and said that it was the white girl who asked them to order a play.

Ruan Yuyi frowned slightly when she heard this. According to the etiquette, the queen mother has not arrived, even if she only obeys the word "filial piety", they should not order it first. This Bai Zhiqi is the niece of the Queen Mother, so she is naturally more affectionate, and she also has capital capriciousness.

And if they move first, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will suspect that they are disrespectful and will be angry.

Concubine Shu is also half the lord of the first house, how can she not understand this truth, "Put it back first, and it's not too late to order it later." ”

After getting the words, the palace people went back to reply.

Not long after, Bai Zhiqi led it over again. She bowed slightly, which was considered a salute, "Why don't the sisters give my sister a thin face?" It's only fair that everyone is divided into points. ”

Ruan Yuyi said softly, "Then we have to wait for the Queen Mother to come." ”

I don't know if Bai Zhiqi really doesn't understand the truth, or if he has to embarrass her, he is full of grievances, "My sister dislikes me, and I also feel that I stay in the palace, and I use food and clothing in vain, which is no different from a moth." That's why I don't want to deal with it. ”

There are indeed such rumors in the palace.

She suddenly remembered herself who was still in the Cheng family. At that time, she didn't know what was going on outside in her own courtyard, and she couldn't think about it.

Concubine Shu's voice pulled her back to the moment, "You're too worried. Where is the niece of the Queen Mother allowed others to accuse, the palace is not ordered, it is to leave a face for the Queen Mother, what else do you say? ”

Concubine Shu said calmly, her eyes were resolute and not slight, and she was hairpinned with a golden hairpin and jade hairpin, which seemed to be shining with a stunning light.

Bai Zhiqi knew that she was in a high position, and he was a little scared of her. Her lips twitched a few times, but she couldn't get half a sentence back, so she had to turn around and leave, and her skirt was like a flower under her.

On the stage, the people of the troupe fiddled with props back and forth, and there were also a few people in costumes who compared with each other and played the script.

The queen mother has lost her power, and she has always loved to put up a shelf on these little things, and it took a few concubines to come for a long time, and even the people from the opera troupe came to inquire several times.

The crowd stood up and saluted.

The concubine with a strong temperament was already angry in her heart, and secretly said to herself, "At this time, I can show her prestige, if it weren't for the sake of the eldest princess, Your Majesty would have abolished her a long time ago." ”

The palace maid standing beside her lowered her hands and eyes, not daring to answer.

The Queen Mother sat down to play, and it was another quarter of an hour before it began.

The queen mother herself fell on the concubine in love, and she ordered the play, and also preferred some talented and beautiful people's drama books. The top is babbling and singing, and the bottom is quietly watching.

The Hua Dan who played the woman on the stage was almost as slender as Xiaosheng on the side, with a graceful posture and a chic. As soon as you walk up from the side, you don't know it's the main character.
