Chapter 4: The Concubine's Lecture
I saw that the person who came was the chief eunuch Jiang Heqing next to the concubine Niangniang, who Lin Wanyi had seen once when she was at home.
That time, he was ordered to send the wine from the Western Regions given by the concubine Niangniang, but he was a person who would come and talk sweetly.
"The little master can be regarded as entering the palace, and the mother is looking forward to your coming, but I have been looking forward to it for many days."
Sure enough, they all said that they would not hit the smiling person, not to mention that in the palace, this Jiang Gonggong's ability is great, but in the face of Lin Wanyi's promise to enter the palace, he is still as polite as ever.
"Thank you Niangniang, the concubine has long wanted to meet Niangniang."
"In the end, the sisters of the family, if you want to go to one place, Niangniang is the slave who came to invite you to go over to talk."
"That's very good, please ask Father-in-law Jiang to lead the way."
is neither humble nor arrogant, but Jiang Heqing made a note of the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in his heart.
I saw that she was dressed in a snow-blue soft smoke Luo Liuxian Palace dress, which made her quiet and appropriate, her hair like an ink waterfall was curled into a flowing cloud bun, and a few magnolia hairpins were inserted obliquely, compared with a group of charming and gorgeous little masters, she was dressed elegantly.
With a beautiful complexion, ice muscles and jade bones, she is a rare beauty.
If you look closely, there is a pale red tear mole under the corner of the left eye, which adds a lot of style.
I have to say that this Xiangfu is really a treasure of feng shui, and the girls raised are better than flowers.
I'm afraid that there will be another favored nobleman in the palace.
"Little Lord, please."
Jiang Heqing didn't say much, and led Lin Wanyi all the way to the door of Lintoe Palace.
After walking for about two quarters of an hour, passing through four palace gates and a magnificent palace, Lin Wanyi finally saw the legendary Linzhi Palace.
This palace is located in the upper line of the East Sixth Palace, in addition to the Chengqian Palace where the queen lives, it is the largest palace in the harem.
Before entering the palace gate, Lin Wanyi smelled a faint fragrance of plum blossoms, and it was really strange to have such a smell at this time.
followed Jiang Heqing into the palace, Lin Wanyi bowed slightly, did not look around, and the two maids who followed behind him also bowed their heads respectfully, not looking at what should not be looked at, the rules are well taught.
"This is the Lintoe Palace where the concubine Niangniang lives, the little master will have to move around more in the future, the mother has ordered, coming here is the same as at home, no need to be formal."
Hearing this, Lin Wanyi paused slightly, and then she raised her head, and her waist straightened up.
Everywhere you look, your eyes are full of the wealth and glory of the Lintoe Palace.
If it is said that the top and bottom of the Yihua Palace have been repaired to be brilliant, then this Lintoe Palace is extravagant.
What catches the eye is not only a well-maintained small garden, but also a pool made of rockery with high mountains and flowing water, which is not big but very exquisite, and has a little Jiangnan garden taste.
It is also surrounded by pebbles of the same size, and walking on them will not slip even if there is water.
The main hall is composed of seven large houses, and in the middle hangs a plaque of imperial gifts, which reads: Roujia is virtuous.
These are the four words that the emperor specially selected from the will of Lin Guifei to be crowned, and made a plaque to send it over to show the majesty of Long En.
This matter was also greatly publicized by the second aunt in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so Lin Wanyi knew about it.
The hands folded in front of him tightened the handkerchief in his hand, and Lin Wanyi followed Jiang Heqing up the steps in front of the main hall, only to hear him shout in a sharp voice, "Little Master Lin has arrived." ”
The palace maids inside immediately opened the curtains left and right and welcomed people in.
For Lin Guifei, the eldest sister, Lin Wanyi was not very impressed.
Although the two sisters are only four years apart, Concubine Lin entered the palace at the age of fifteen, and now they are both twenty-one, and they haven't seen each other for six years.
Besides, when they were at home, the two would gossip when they went to Ronghe Hall to say goodbye, and they didn't have much intersection in private.
Therefore, after entering the cabinet of the main hall, before he had time to sit up and look, Lin Wanyi folded his hand on his forehead, his voice was firm, and he bowed respectfully on the woven gold blanket and said meticulously.
"Promise that the Lin family has seen the concubine Niangniang, please Niangniang Jin'an."
The woman in the bright window was originally Lin Guifei, who was leaning on the rosewood table and asking the people around her to pinch her legs, but suddenly heard the voice, and slowly opened her eyes.
Years of palace nourishment have made her different from before.
Now that he has the power in his hands, he naturally has more prestige for the superiors.
With a slender body, white skin and snow, and delicate facial features with a casual attitude, he raised his hand slightly towards the palace maid Qin He next to him, and then slowly said to Lin Wanyi.
"Sister, get up, although I am in the palace, but I am also your eldest sister in the end, when there is no one, I still call the palace as before."
"Niangniang Longen, but the concubine doesn't dare to exceed the rules."
Polite or sincere, Lin Wanyi can hear it, if she really shouts Lin Guifei "eldest sister", I am afraid that Zhang Yang's ignorant reputation will spread immediately.
Seeing that she was still well-behaved, the corners of Lin Guifei's mouth stretched slightly, and sure enough, as her grandmother said, she was very easy to handle.
Thinking of this, the sincerity on his face was three points more.
"Sister, sit down, this palace has been away from home for many years, and it is rare to see brothers and sisters, how is the eldest brother now? Are you still on an errand in the Imperial City? ”
On the surface, it is a chatter, but in fact it is a temptation.
Lin Wanyi didn't believe that with the current position of the concubine and the ear report of the lord of Rongkang, she would really not know the situation of her eldest brother!
But now that I have a low status, I should be careful when I reply.
"Back to Niangniang's words, the eldest brother is fine, but he has been on an errand in the Imperial City Division for seven years, and he hasn't made much progress, but he is getting older, and his mother is showing him his relatives."
"Oh? Haven't you been promoted in seven years? ”
Before Lin Wanyi could reply, he said to himself, "I think my grandfather wants to hone my eldest brother's mind, after all, he is the eldest grandson of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is not good to be blindly arrogant." ”
Arrogant?
It was really ridiculous that these words came out of Lin Guifei's mouth.
The eldest brother has been diligent for many years and cannot be reused, and it is indispensable that the people in the West Cross Courtyard have done things behind their backs, but they have nowhere to complain about the suffering in the big house, so they can only knock out their teeth and swallow blood.
Lin Guifei deliberately opened her mouth to find the eldest brother to talk about the matter, which was nothing more than to warn her not to think about being strong, otherwise the end would not be much better than the eldest brother, so Lin Wanyi could only bow her head for the time being, and replied in a calm tone.
"That's what the mother said."
Seeing her so low and small, Lin Guifei's heart let go of three points.
Knocking is necessary, but if the beating is too much, it will not be good for her to be frightened by her own majesty.
After all, with her understanding of the emperor, the wooden beauties who don't understand the amorous feelings and the timid people who only promise are not favored, so since she has been selected to enter the palace, she naturally has to be able to fix her favor.
