Chapter 59: An Concubine Visits
Because of the pain in the buttocks, I was supposed to stand at breakfast, and the National Academy, which was noisy and refused to go last night, also took a leave of absence.
After breakfast, I watched Yan Huai go out, the little girl couldn't sit, so she could only walk around, and after teasing the roast chicken and duck, she felt bored and went back to the room to read the script.
Since she went to school, she slowly learned a lot of simple words, so she asked Chaifeng to bring herself a lot of scripts from outside the palace, and she occasionally asked Tsing Yi or Yan Huai when she didn't know words.
The story in the book is bizarre and interesting, every time you look at it, you will be substituted into it, and when you encounter the story of a negative man, you will find Yan Huai to get angry and scold him.
The weather is getting colder, Tsing Yi is sorting out her winter clothes, and from time to time she will pay attention to the condition of the little girl, and it will be uncomfortable to see her lying on the soft couch reading a book, "Your Royal Highness, do you want the slave to read it to you?" ”
"No need Tsing Yi, you're busy with your business, I can see it myself, I know a lot of words now!" Yuan Yuan proudly replied that she is no longer the original wish that can only read villain books, she is the original wish to be literate and literate!
"Your Highness is awesome!" Tsing Yi praised her with a smile, and then took out the winter clothes he had sorted out and washed them.
I don't know how long it took, when I was looking groggy from reading the script, Tsing Yi came in, "Your Royal Highness, Concubine An of Ronghe Hall has come to see you, and she is now waiting in the main hall." ”
A sentence of An Concubine Niangniang made all the sleepy insects who had the original wish run away, "Are you talking about the An Concubine Niangniang who has a voice very similar to your aunt?" She knows me again, why did she come to see me? ”
Tsing Yi also wondered in his heart, this An Concubine is a strong holy grace, how could she come to visit her little highness? Do you want to win it over?
"Your Highness wants to see her?"
It just so happened that Yuan Yuan was very curious about her, and since it was sent to the door, she went to see it!
"Let's go, I'll see what she looks like." Yuan Yuan said that he was about to leave the room if he put down his hand, but Tsing Yi hurriedly grabbed her, first tidied up her clothes and hair accessories, and then reminded her that her buttocks hurt and she couldn't sit.
"Then I'll stand." Yuan Yuan pouted and said aggrievedly, and then Tsing Yi led her to the main hall.
An Concubine and the personal palace maid waited quietly in the main hall, although the etiquette of the East Palace was thoughtful, and the melons, fruits and tea were all available, but An Concubine still felt that she had been neglected.
"The crown princess has arrived." Tsing Yi raised her voice to remind, and Concubine An got up and blessed her body in the direction of her original wish.
The line of sight followed the footsteps of the original wish all the way to the main seat of the main hall, seeing that a hairy girl was so big, a trace of disdain flashed in Concubine An's heart, but she was just a little milk baby who had not dried up, and she would be obedient if she coaxed a few words.
"When Concubine An first entered the court, she had long heard that the crown princess was young and cute, and she had always been very curious. An Concubine's rainbow fart came as soon as she opened her mouth, and when she saw Yuan Yuan standing, she didn't dare to sit down, so she could only stand and talk with her.
I had been listening carefully to Concubine An's words, and sure enough, just like what Cai Sang said, her voice was very similar to her aunt's, and she was also gentle and unhurried, which was very good.
"Concubine An's voice is so good, I like it." Yuan Yuan also praised her, whether it was sincere or false, it is a fact that her voice is good.
Concubine An knew that her voice was the biggest advantage, and she also knew that Emperor Yan would notice that she was because her voice was very similar to the deceased Empress Wen, she didn't mind, as long as she could be favored and bring benefits to the family, what about being a stand-in.
"After the concubine entered the palace, I often heard His Majesty and the palace people say that the voice of the concubine is very similar to that of Queen Xiaoyi, I heard that the princess has been raised under the knee of Queen Xiaoyi since she was a child, I wonder if the princess thinks the voice of the concubine is like?" Concubine An intends to use Empress Wen to bring her closer to her original wishes.
I haven't heard anyone mention Empress Wen to her for a long time, and when I think of my gentle and loving aunt, I am willing to say a few more words to Concubine An, "Yes, I grew up with my aunt since I was a child, and my aunt is good, she will tell me stories, comb her beautiful hairstyle, and prepare a lot of beautiful clothes for me." ”
Concubine An saw that she had found the right topic, and took her words to guide Yuan Yuan to talk more about Empress Wen's deeds, "When the concubine was in the boudoir, she heard about the virtuous name of Empress Xiaoyi, Queen Xiaoyi has always been a role model for the nobles of Yanjing, and the concubine has always admired Empress Xiaoyi. ”
Speaking of Empress Wen, Yuan Yuan's interest was even higher, and his little face was full of pride, "Of course!" My aunt is the best woman in Yanjing! ”
"The concubine saw the princess for the first time, and she didn't know the princess's preferences, so she made the concubine's horseshoe cake on her own initiative, and the princess wanted to taste it?" As soon as Concubine An's words fell, Tsing Yi glanced at her, the horseshoe cake is one of the queen's favorite pastries for Her Royal Highness, she is smart.
Yuan Yuan really took the bait, and took the initiative to go to An Concubine's side and taste a piece of the so-called water chestnut cake made by An Concubine, sweet but not greasy, Yuan Yuan knew that this was made by the imperial chef as soon as he ate it.
Returning to the main seat with a lack of interest, still standing, Concubine An saw that she had lost interest after only taking one bite, and asked the reason in a warm voice, "Don't you like the crown princess?" But this horseshoe cake is not to the taste of the crown princess? ”
I had lost the interest in chatting with her again, but this Concubine An was not sincere, she didn't like it, so she casually took Yan Huai as an excuse and replied, "Yan Shenzhi didn't let me eat more sweets, saying that I would have toothworms." ”
"Then the princess has a favorite pastry, the concubine will try to make it, and bring it to the princess next time to taste?" Concubine An doesn't understand that a little girl says that if she changes her face, she will change her face, it seems that it is true that the prince is used to lawlessness in the palace, she should not misestimate the status of the five-year-old princess in the palace in front of her.
Tsing Yi saw that the little girl was already a little unhappy on her face, and declined Concubine An's kindness for her, "Thank you Concubine An for your concern, it's just that His Royal Highness's preferences have always been the responsibility of the Flower Imperial Kitchen, and he has changed it to someone else's cooking, and His Royal Highness is not used to eating." ”
"That's it, I don't know much when I first come to this palace, thank you aunt for reminding me." An Concubine was a little embarrassed on her face, but her modest and gentle attitude made it impossible to find fault.
"Today's concubine was rude and disturbed the crown princess, and next time the concubine dragged the younger brother of the family to prepare some things outside the palace to relieve the princess's boredom."
"There are still some things in the concubine's palace, so I won't stay long, so I'll go back to the palace first." After Concubine An finished speaking, she blessed her body and left the East Palace.
After a long distance from the East Palace, Concubine An's personal palace maid Xiaorui was angry and complained that the original dog looked down on people and did not take her master in his eyes.
The words of a loyal protector were not appreciated by An Concubine, but were reprimanded, "Shut up! If you say such a big rebellion, don't let this palace hear it a second time! Are you trying to kill Hongu? There are many ears and eyes in this palace, if it is passed to the ears of His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince by someone with a heart, do you know what will happen to this palace! ”
Xiaorui was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth, and shook her head in horror, she didn't want to hurt her master, and the master and servant took the accompanying palace people back to Ronghe Palace.
