Chapter 20: Kunning Palace, Empress

When I looked up, I saw Lin Kexin standing under the blue yarn cabinet with a smile, and I was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly invited her to sit down together, while complaining about why the internal supervisor outside didn't report. Lin Kexin was slightly embarrassed, and said: "Sister Allure, don't blame them, I didn't let them pass it on, I wanted to surprise my sister, but it annoyed my sister, it was Lin Kexin's fault." ”

I hurriedly smiled and said, "Where did you come from, you mean well." I'm just saying a word about them in vain, don't worry. ”

Lin Kexin smiled and sat down together. She said to Fan Yiren: "I just went to Changchun Palace to see my sister, and I wanted to come with my sister to visit Sister Allure, but the palace maid of my sister's Cunju Hall said that my sister came first, but my sister was a step late." ”

Fan Yiren smiled: "It's not too late, just look at the embroidery together, Sister Allure's hands are very skillful." I blushed slightly and didn't answer her.

Ah Zhu poured tea: "Xin Jieyu, please use tea." Ah Zhu knew that the waiter didn't like to drink Lu'an tea, so he deliberately changed the incense tablets. ”

Lin Kexin smiled and said, "Thank you for bothering to remember." ”

Ah Zhu Fu said: "The little master Lin Kexin and the little master of Fan Yiren are like sisters to my young lady, do you dare to care?" ”

Fan Yiren laughed: "What a clever mouth! Indeed, it is the people around you, and if there is a master, there will be a servant. ”

My face turned redder: "Sister Iren has always liked to make fun of me. Where is she clever, but I have served for a long time and have a longer memory than others. ”

Fan Yi said: "Naturally, the girl who has served us since childhood is more considerate. He asked Lin Kexin again: "You didn't bring your personal maid in, how many palace maids are serving you now?" Is the service good? ”

Lin Kexin replied: "It's okay, there are four, but two of them are only twelve, and I can't count on them to do anything." Fortunately, I am also very trouble-free, and it is enough. ”

I frowned: "How can you have enough people for this idea?" It's not like to take it out! ”

called Ruyi outside the house to come in and said, "First go back to the queen mother, and then point out the palace maid who is over eighteen under my name to serve Xin Jieyu." ”

Ruyi agreed, and after a while, she came back and forth: "The slave pointed to the chrysanthemum, she used to be an errand in the Sizhiku, and she was quite stable." ”

I nodded, let her go down, and said to Lin Kexin, "Let her go back with you later." If you have anything that is not enough, tell me and Sister Yiren. ”

Fan Yiren nodded and said, "There is naturally ours and yours, don't worry." Today you have received some new rewards, and there are a few satin horses that are right for you to wear, and they will be sent to you by the messenger. ”

Lin Kexin was very grateful: "Lin Kexin only understands the friendship of her sisters. ”

I said, "What is this?" It is right that you and my sisters should take care of each other in this house. ”

The three of us stared at each other and smiled, knowing each other's thoughts, and our six hands were clasped tightly together.

Three days later, only four watches, I got up to shower, change clothes, and dress up. This is the first time I have met the harem concubine after entering the palace, which is not trivial. The subordinates of the first palace are a little nervous, and they are extra careful and thoughtful in their waiting.

Qiushui Azhu quickly put on a good rouge gouache for me, and Qing'er held a plate of jewelry on the side and said: "The first time I meet the queen, the little lord has to dress up ceremoniously in order to be glamorous." Qiushui looked back at her silently, and she immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to say more.

I brushed my hair back and said lightly, "Just comb your Ruyi high bun." "This is the most common and ordinary bun in the palace. Qing'er brought the jewelry up, and I picked a pair of tortoiseshell hairpins to make chrysanthemum hairpins, which are not only in season, but also simple and generous in color. Pick another light red flowing color dark flower cloud brocade palace costume to wear, the color is festive and not outstanding, no matter how you can find a mistake. I know that I have taken the lead among the new palace concubines to attract people's attention, and this time there is Concubine Li, it is really not too eye-catching, the more low-key and humble the better. Ruyi came in and saw me dressed up like this, and smiled at me. I knew that she was very much in favor of my dress, and that her mind was far superior to that of everyone else. I have the heart to lift up Ruyi, but I haven't been with her for a long time, and I don't know the bottom line, so I don't dare to trust it rashly and use it again.

The palace sedan chair is already waiting at the door, and Zhao Meiren has also freshened up and dressed up and is waiting for me. The two got into the sedan chair separately, and Su Xiaojin and Ruyi followed all the way behind the sedan chair. After a long while, I heard a shrill voice outside the sedan chair shouting: "Kunning Palace has arrived, please get off the sedan chair." Then an inner supervisor lifted the curtain, and Su Xiao stepped forward to hold my hand, all the way into the Fengyi Palace.

The ten show girls have arrived in eight or nine, and the concubines have also arrived one after another. One by one, they sat down according to their status, silent. Only the sound of dense footsteps could be heard, a ringing bell, the fragrant breeze was thin, and the queen was already surrounded and sat on the throne. Everyone hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye, and said neatly: "Queen Mother Wan'an." ”

The queen wears a purple gold Zhai phoenix bead crown on her head, and wears a crimson gold and silver silk Luan Bird Chaofeng embroidered court dress, with a calm and graceful bearing. The queen smiled and said, "My sisters came so early. Flatten! ”
