Just as Shen Hong said, the second pillar was changed to daylight, and within two days it caused trouble, and there was a Hou Fu Gongzi who was riding a horse on the street, and he stopped him and said You can't build a sidewalk here, and he was whipped by the Hou Fu Gongzi, and the second pillar was whipped by the Hou Fu Gongzi, and the other dragged the person down and threw him on the ground, and now he is suspended from his job and resting at home.

The second aunt told him not to do such things in the future, and to protect the people on the road for fear of accidents, and not to stop those princes and grandsons, and to tear off their horses and throw them on the ground.

I don't know if Erzhu listened to it or not, but Lin Piao could feel that he was not happy in Shangjing, and that going to work was like going to the grave, and when he returned home, he teased the children, and ate with everyone.

From time to time, Lin Piao brought fresh food to look at the two pillars, pinching his fingers to count the days, thinking that he was going to enter the palace tomorrow, he was so nervous that he felt like he was about to take the college entrance examination.

Erzhu sat on a stool next to him and gulped down the roast chicken he had brought in, and bought two roast chickens, one with some sweet sauce and the other with some salty sauce, and Erzhu pulled one of the chicken legs of each of the two chickens down and put them on a plate beside him.

"Little sister-in-law, you can eat too."

Lin Piao nodded, nervous in his heart, and felt pity in his heart when he saw Erzhu such a tall man with a tiger head and a tiger brain.

The curtain of the door moved, and a figure walked in, just as Ergou also came to see Erzhu.

"This is delicious, my sister-in-law is so biased, she didn't even think to give me something to eat." The second dog is still oily and sour.

Lin Piao pointed to the two big chicken legs on the plate: "Choose one to eat." ”

Ergou stretched out his hand, and Erzhu stretched out his hand to open it: "What I left for my sister-in-law to eat, you can take some snacks to eat." ”

Erzhu gave him a look, and Ergou followed his gaze to the plate of pastries on the table next to him, shook his head, and said angrily: "My sister-in-law asked me to eat, and I listened to my sister-in-law!" You're old. ”

Lin Piao saw that the two of them were about to quarrel again, so he hurriedly stopped: "Don't quarrel, don't quarrel, I've been annoyed for the past two days, I can't listen to the noise, one of these chicken legs is brushed with salty sauce and the other with sweet sauce, so I can choose one of them to eat." ”

The two of them really shut up, and Ergou chose a salted chicken leg and sat next to him to eat.

Lin Piao looked at the two of them, Erzhu was still tiger-headed, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, although it had nothing to do with handsomeness, but he looked very upright, because he was a tall man in the prime of life, thinking that he was always bullied, and now he was honestly gnawing on chickens, but it was a little pitiful, and he felt like he was stupid and big.

Now the second dog has grown up, and many years of study and life have made his face a lot of protein, especially after coming to Beijing, he pays special attention to the image, and keeps up with all aspects of dressing, the hairstyle is neatly combed, and the hair crown is also carefully chosen.

He originally had a thin straight nose and thin lips, and his spiritual eyes were not big or small, and he was black and swarthy like a monkey jumping up and down when he was a child, but now he seems to have evolved from a monkey to a six-year-old child.

Ergou said: "Little sister-in-law, you will go to the palace tomorrow, and when you come back, you will tell us what the palace looks like, so that we can also see and understand." ”

Lin Piao nodded: "That's natural, but don't mention this stubble now, I'm very nervous, I'm afraid that I will make a mistake when I go to the palace." ”

Ergou said: "No, sister-in-law, what kind of character are you, you must be smooth and famous." ”

"Make a hairpin and use it to make a name for yourself? I'm still alive and well. ”

Ergou nodded: "That's natural, such a good craftsmanship will definitely be passed down for generations, so that future generations can take a good look at it." ”

Lin Piao shook his head helplessly: "You slippery head." ”

He came here today mainly to see Erzhu, and to ask him about his suspension, since Ergou is here, it is better to ask Ergou directly: "Lingyue, how long will it take for Erzhu to return to the forbidden army?" ”

"Shen Hong's side helped to take care of it, and I also found some connections, and helped to clear up and down, although there is no fixed number, but I will stay at home and recuperate for a while, and I will definitely be able to return to the forbidden army later."

Erzhu, who was silently gnawing on chickens, suddenly said: "Don't worry about me anymore, I don't want to go back to the forbidden army." ”

"Why?" Lin Piao and Ergou both asked in surprise.

Erzhu said: "Shangjing is not a place where I can stay, what I want is to make a contribution, not to do these things here." ”

"Have you figured out what to do?" Lin Piao asked.

Erzhu was silent for a while: "No, little sister-in-law, I don't know. ”

He didn't dare to say this to his mother, because his mother would scold him when she heard this, and his mother would get angry when she heard this, but he knew that his sister-in-law was an open-minded person and would not be anxious about these words, so he said it to them.

Lin Piao sighed, he didn't know what to say, although he hadn't experienced everything Erzhu had experienced, but he saw everything in his eyes, Erzhu was also a child who grew up beside him, of course he knew that Erzhu had also been injured during this time, not his body, but his heart, his heart, his cognition, his behavior pattern, and the outside world, which made him suffer a lot of oncoming waves.

"Then don't tell your mother about this, you should think about it carefully, the position of the forbidden army is not easy to come by, but if you really don't want to do it, go home and rest for a few days, I am also busy now, I just lack someone to follow me as a guard, it is not good to ask other men to follow, if you really don't do the forbidden army, come to me to be a guard is happy."

Erzhu nodded, and looking at his serious consideration, it seemed that he really felt that the work of the forbidden army would not be able to continue.

Lin Piao didn't want to force him, he was too rigid and easy to break, he didn't have Shen Hong's brain, and he didn't have the sleekness of Ergou, so it was enough to live a comfortable life in a place like Shangjing.

Ergou wanted to persuade him not to give up, but he didn't dare to refute Lin Piao's words in front of Lin Piao, not to mention his friendship with Erzhu for many years, if it was someone else, he would have to make it clear from the powerful relationship, but he knew what Erzhu's personality and what the situation of his head was, and he also knew that the way of life was a little too difficult for Erzhu now.

Ergou said helplessly: "Erzhu, anyway, you think about it yourself, you still have buddies in Beijing, anyway, no matter what you do, there will always be someone covering you, what are you afraid of." ”

Erzhu nodded, knowing that although Ergou was unforgiving, he was a true brother, so he reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

The second dog screamed: "Damn! Do you know how expensive my clothes are? You can't wipe your hands, a hand of oil! ”

"I wiped it!"

"Look at this mimeograph, you haven't wiped it clean!"

"Why are you so bothered, I wiped it clean! Where can you see the oil?! ”

Seeing that the two were about to fight, Lin Piao hurriedly retreated and ran out, by the way, he took the plate, took the chicken leg with sweet sauce, tasted the sweet crispy skin and juicy and tender chicken leg along the way, and walked back to the house.

On the second day, Lin Piao got up early in the morning, changed his clothes and combed his hair, took hairpins and hands, he rarely got up so early, and met Shen Hong at the door, Shen Hong was not busy going out, stood on the stairs and watched him, encouraging him with his eyes, Lin Piao adjusted his breathing, nodded at him, turned his head and got into the carriage.

As the carriage went from the gate of the Shen Mansion to the palace gate, a palace maid came out to greet them with a token, but she still carefully checked them inside and out, and then took a long way in, and the palace maid said: "The carriage behind the road can't go any further, so the owner of the house will bring someone to follow me." ”

Lin Piao was so nervous that he didn't care about looking at the scenery, nodded and asked the person who brought him to take the jewelry box in his hand, and everyone got out of the car and walked forward with the palace maid.

Chapter 140

Lin Piao was so excited, after all, this was to meet the queen mother, it was completely an imaginary symbol, the owner of the highest rights of women in the dynasty, although he was also a person, but Lin Piao already had countless imaginations.

Moreover, he had never seen a serious harem dress, and he didn't know what he was dressed up in, what clothes he was wearing, and what jewelry he was wearing.

The palace maid greeted Lin Piao to the gate of the palace, Lin Piao looked up, and saw that the plaque was written with three big characters of Yanchun Palace, the plaque was finely carved, the color paint was bright, and the whole huge and exquisite palace complemented each other.

Lin Piao walked in, because his heart was a little too nervous, and his head was basically a little blank, but fortunately he had rehearsed in advance when he was at home, entered the palace, and was led to the inner hall, saluted and greeted according to the rehearsed state, and then a voice came from above telling him to get up.

The voice from above was a very gentle female voice, very good, the voice was slightly thick, it looked very solemn, Lin Piao's eyes looked at his nose and nose, Shen Hong had instructed him in advance, telling him to stay honestly as soon as he entered, don't look around and don't say anything, wait until the queen asks, the two of them say a few words, and then make some natural moves.

Lin Piao naturally understood these truths, and took the initiative to mention the twelve flower gods hairpins on behalf of the flower gods to visit the queen, Lin Piao had already pondered the queen's mentality, and naturally wanted to take the initiative to speak, the queen stayed in the palace and couldn't get out, seeing that there was a bustle outside and couldn't see it, there were good things and couldn't get it in her hands, she sat on the back seat, with so much power in her hands, how could she let such a thing happen, but she couldn't show that it was her own request, lest others think she was extravagant, and only cared about her own enjoyment and funIt would be good if Lin Piao wanted to be more sensible and take the initiative, and she would gladly accept this wish.

Lin Piao turned sideways and asked people to come forward, he brought Juan'er and Xiaoyue over, as well as Qiuyu and Xia He, and asked them to bring their things, and when they went inside, they delivered the things to the palace maids inside, one of them held a box, and the palace maids of Yanchun Palace stood in front, and Xiaoyue and Juan'er followed and stood behind, standing in two rows, opening the box and saluting the queen.

It's a damn sense of ritual.

After all, the name of the twelve flower gods cannot be dropped.

When the queen saw this hard-to-find hairpin, she was naturally full of praise, and praised Lin Piao's ingenuity, which deserved to be able to raise Shen Hanlin's brother.

Her tone was kind, with a touch of appreciation, and Lin Piao introduced her to the concept of these hairpins, if they were matched with what kind of jewelry hairpins, what color of clothes, it would look particularly outstanding.

While listening to Lin Piao's words, she said lightly: "I have a set of ruby heads, and two hairpins should be good to wear with this peony flower." ”

As she spoke, Lin Piao finally looked at the queen, and glanced at her from time to time, the first thing she saw was the clothes she was wearing, because it was summer, she was wearing a jade brocade Luo skirt, covered with a dark purple thin shirt, very dignified and atmospheric, the shawl was half hung in the crook of the arm, one arm was on the silk pillow, revealing a section of the arm, slender and round, and two jade bracelets were covered in her hands, which were warm and bright, and her white and greasy skin complemented each other.

Look at her face again, full goose egg face, although the are half-old, but the charm is not especial, there are quite a lot, quite full, dotted lips, long eyebrows, a thin layer of powder on the face, the eyes are long Danfeng eyes, the eyelashes are dark and long, only the expression is a little sad.

No wonder she can be a queen, this belongs to the type that as long as her background is good enough, the physiognomist will think that she is the queen at first glance.

Lin Piao talked to her about these hairpins for a while, and Lin Piao had an intuition that the queen should be too boring to listen to him all the time and talk about these hairpins, and wanted to find something to pass the time.

So he tentatively proposed to let the queen try it on the spot and engage in a dressing game.

The queen was not very interested, but she did not refuse, so she asked Mama Rong to help her up, and asked a few palace maids around her to get jewelry and clothes, and the palace maids circled around her, changing clothes from time to time, and building a hairpin.

Lin Piao looked at the queen's appearance and felt that she didn't look like she was very favored by the emperor, otherwise she wouldn't be so boring.

Mama Rong was waiting with a solemn face on the side, sorting out the queen's dress, but the queen was in a good mood, and occasionally said a word to Lin Piao and asked his opinion.

Where did Lin Piao dare to say that it was not good, naturally he looked good in anything, and it was impossible for the queen to have too ugly clothes in her wardrobe.

They were busy in the palace for a while, and suddenly a palace maid came in and lowered her voice to report that Concubine Hui had come to meet the queen and wanted to discuss the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner.

Lin Piao thought that this matter was almost over, and he could leave, so he was about to leave, but he heard the queen say: "It just so happens that you are here, you are making clothes and jewelry, and you should also think of a way." ”

Lin Piao: "??? ”

What did he think of for such a big event as your Mid-Autumn Festival dinner?

Lin Piao was dumbfounded, don't be too outrageous, just forget if he is caught working overtime, it is not his business scope at all.

The queen asked the palace maid to pack up her things first, and then passed Concubine Hui in, and Concubine Hui was waiting outside for so long that when she came in, she didn't have a good word, and she was sour.

"Meet the queen mother, the queen mother is really a good day, and the hard work is tight."

Although Concubine Hui's title is Hui, it doesn't seem to have much to do with Hui, she is wearing a red palace dress, her skin is not particularly white, but her appearance is gorgeous, her body is tall and thin, her neck is also very slender, and her eyes look a little fierce.

As she spoke, her eyes looked around the Yanchun Palace, and when she swept over Lin Piao's body, Lin Piao wanted to shrink into the corner, and a drop of sweat almost flowed down her forehead.

This kind of palace fight scene, there is no need for him to witness it, right? He's afraid of getting into trouble.

Lin Piao listened for a while, and the matter of Concubine Hui's coming today was very simple, that is, the emperor asked Concubine Hui and the Empress to organize the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner, because the song and dance were leveled and the prosperity of the era was prosperous, and it happened that this year, envoys from several small countries in the Western Regions came to the audience on the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

They were named as the main planners, and the other concubines were responsible for cooperating with their command, and now they were under a lot of pressure, because it was not possible to do this well, but it was not so easy to do it well, because the emperor had set the standards too high, and if it was the same process as in previous years, Party A would definitely not be satisfied with the sudden outbreak of vanity this year, and it would affect their future in the harem.

The queen was very worried, Concubine Hui was very anxious, one was a worry attack, the other was an anxiety attack, and the state looked very bad.

Concubine Hui looked at Lin Piao who was standing in the corner: "Queen Mother, this is?" ”

Mama Rong on the side introduced: "This is Shen Hong's brother-in-law, and he is also the owner of Yuemingfang, and he also made the Hundred Flowers Exhibition." ”

The queen said slowly: "I heard that he did a hundred flowers exhibition, everyone in Beijing is full of praise, he specially brought the flower hairpin to visit, it is also a piece of mind, I have another idea, I want to see if it is really so good, see sure worthy of the name, first the princess of Jingyang entered the palace, wearing the Yuemingfang to make the flower god clothes, also very moving, I thought that since the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner to do something novel, the strangers have not seen these, let them see, it is also a novelty, will be able to impress them." ”

Concubine Hui was suspicious, but she also knew about the Hundred Flowers Exhibition, and she had heard that according to the Queen's intention, she would have another Hundred Flowers Exhibition at the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner.

"Just look at what the clothes and jewelry look like."

The queen said: "If you want to be bad, naturally you will dress up the selected people first, and then sing and dance, so it is novel and grand enough." ”

Concubine Hui thought about it for a while and felt that it was feasible, Lin Piao quickly stepped forward to receive the order, after all, everything depends on taking the initiative to seize the opportunity, as long as the contract banquet makeup is done, it will only increase her fame.

And if you have contracted royal activities, you can even be tied to the royal family.

Moreover, this is a royal activity, not a matter for the queen alone, and it is not considered that the relationship with the queen is too entangled.

Lin Piaozai thought about it carefully, it was very cost-effective, and while he seized the opportunity tightly, he still felt a little unrealistic.

The two warned him and told him to do it well, don't want to cheat and cheat, and do things like that, Lin Piao should be repeated.

In the end, even the footsteps out of the Yanchun Palace were vain, as if stepping on cotton, with Xiao Yuejuan'er, autumn rain and summer lotus, everyone walked a long way with a deep foot and a shallow foot, and returned to the carriage, they still felt very unrealistic, as if everything was a dream.

Sitting in the carriage, the carriage began to stagger, and they were still stunned and speechless in the carriage.

After a while, Lin Piao felt his timid soul return to his businessman's body.

"Oh my God......" sighed in one breath, sighed ten miles away, and looked at Xiaoyue and Juan'er.

Xiao Yue's eyes widened: "Oh my God." ”
