2 Chapter 2
Tan Baolu was holding on to the bed beam, and the two little maids behind her were pulling a big red cloth from left to right, tightly wrapping around her waist.
The waist of less than two feet is tightened to only one and a half feet, and the thinness of the waist highlights the softness of the chest and the fullness of the buttocks.
But such beauty comes at a price.
The perennial waist corset made Tan Baolu fall into the root of the disease very early, and her waist was sore every rainy day, and in the worst cases, she even needed to soak in a hot spring with medicine to relieve it.
The pain in her waist tightened again, Tan Baolu came back to her senses, and said softly: "Xiaodong, you don't have to tie it anymore." ”
The strength in his waist decreased slightly, and Xiao Dong said hesitantly: "Third Miss, I know that the waist is not very comfortable, but the saint has a thin waist, what if it is no longer tighter?" How to become a slender waist beauty and win the grace of the saints? ”
Talking about Baolu's heart, what do I call him He Dongyan like?
But she can't say it yet.
Tan Baolu said, "I can't breathe. ”
Xiaodong was about to let go, "Ouch, ouch, it's hard to tie it up, how can I solve it!" One of the grandmothers screamed.
This Mama Zhao is the dowry maid brought by the eldest lady when she got married, and she is from the eldest lady's side.
She took the belt from Xiaodong's hand and went into battle herself.
When she tied Tan Baolu's waist, she was ruthless, her left foot stepped on the ground, and her hands dragged her back, eager to break Tan Baolu's waist, and beat Tan Baolu with words: "Third girl, the lord and the lady are waiting outside, if you don't put on your clothes well, are you going to be punished?" ”
Talking about Baolu didn't talk much about her, she picked up the scissors on the table, and twisted the girdle into two pieces.
The girdle turned into rags, and Mama Zhao was stunned by the original earthquake.
Tan Baolu stepped on the girdle of rags and walked towards the bronze mirror and said, "Go out." ”
"Get out?" Mama Zhao couldn't believe her ears.
Their lord talked about the squire of the Wei official residence and the household department, and married a total of three ladies.
The eldest lady was born well and has a son and a daughter, the eldest son Tan Yu, and the eldest daughter Tan Mo; The second lady has a lot of eyes and has a daughter named Tan Fu; This third girl talks about Baolu, it is Mrs. Sanfang, Sanfang is not in good health, sick and crooked, and there is a pair of twin brothers and sisters below, who are the most unfavorable.
If you are not favored, you have to have a good temper and endure it, otherwise you will not have a good life in Tanfu.
This third girl is usually a muddy person.
How did such a person suddenly become so tough today?
Seeing that Mama Zhao didn't leave for a long time, Tan Baolu said lightly: "Don't understand? If you don't understand, come in with someone who can understand. ”
Mama Zhao was so angry that her face turned pale, and she gritted her teeth and said, "The third girl wants the old slave to go out, and the old slave just goes out." But the three girls have nothing to do with the old slave, if they mistake the master's big event, they won't be able to eat and walk around! ”
The door slammed shut, and the room was finally quiet.
Tan Baolu said to the remaining two personal maids, Xiaodong Xiaoxi: "Continue to change clothes." ”
Xiaodong and Xiaoxi said in unison: "Okay! ”
Xiaodong and Xiaoxi were scared enough, but they both applauded Tan Baolu in their hearts.
They had long wanted to get rid of this Mama Zhao, obviously they were not from the third room, and they were still looking for trouble with them all day long.
The red dance dress was presented, and a picture of a hundred birds was embroidered with gold and silver thread on the fiery silk fabric, and the eyes of each bird were sewn with pearls, agate, night pearls, etc., and the peacock's eyes in the middle were inlaid with a red agate the size of a pigeon's egg, and the surface of the jewelry was full of brilliance, as if in the blink of an eye, lifelike.
After changing into dresses, the maidservants pulled their hair for Tan Baolu.
The hairpin is untied, and three thousand green silk splashes ink down, silky and silky, and then the dense jade grate is placed on the top of the head, and it can be passed all the way to the end of the hair. Such a black and thick hair is tied into a bun, divided into several strands with dozens of finely carved blonde hairpins, and then crowned with a beaded curtain gold crown on the top of the head, like a golden glow on the clouds, shining brightly.
When talking about Baolu's dressing, Xiaodong and Xiaoxi have been worrying.
There is a jade belt around the waist of this dance skirt, which is showing the waistline, if you don't wear a corset, can you look good?
Shaoqing, Tan Baolu dressed up properly and got up from the seat, and Xiaodong and Xiaoxi's worries disappeared in an instant.
The waist that is not tied by the waist is straighter and more resilient, and there is no feeling of weakness and weakness of the willow and the wind, but it is generously stretched, graceful and luxurious, and it is more worthy of this bird dress and the identity of a noble girl.
Tan Baolu stood in front of the mirror.
Looking at the graceful and luxurious people in the mirror, there is still a slight strangeness, and there is a sense of unreality.
She had just passed her 10th birthday when she died, and she was only 16 years old now.
There are not many changes in appearance, the biggest difference is the eyes.
Now in her eyes, there is no fatigue after the deep palace.
She blinked, and a puddle of clear water flashed under her eyes.
She slowly calmed down, and it turned out that she was really back.
God treats her well, and since she has another chance, then she will not be wrong again this time.
"Third girl," the door of the boudoir was knocked lightly, and the people in the house came to urge, "the lord and the lady are waiting in the lobby." ”
"Got it." Tan Baolu turned around and pushed the door out.
As soon as I saw Tan Baolu, the people outside the door were in a hurry to urge, and they were stunned for a moment, almost forgetting that time was pressing. In the end, I don't know who said out loud: "Since the third girl is ready, let's go quickly." ”
"Yes, yes," the others woke up from a dream and led Tan Baolu outside.
Talking about the main hall. Tan Wei's face was gloomy, thinking about how to ask the emperor for an official position after offering his little girl, and several ladies and children were also waiting in the hall, each with their own thoughts.
Tan Fu, the second girl of the Tan family, combed her hair in a double-strand bun, wore goose yellow brocade and used the best fabric of Fang Weaving Workshop for her collar jacket, and her face was also painted with the best rouge gouache of Qunxianglou.
She picked her mouth and ate the snacks on her plate, and said in a weird way: "Why hasn't the third sister arrived?" What does it look like to keep a family waiting like this? ”
In contrast, Tan Mo, the eldest girl of the Tan family, is much fresher, dressed in white like snow, with a beautiful hairpin in her hair, and a blue ice jade bracelet hanging on her two wrists, which looks like a goddess. Only by looking closely will you know that the extravagant materials of this goddess's clothes are no less luxurious than those of her fourth sister.
Tan Mo said softly: "The fourth sister should say a few words, the third sister went to the banquet today, no matter how she said it, it was also for the sake of the family." ”
"Snort......," Tan Fu laughed strangely after hearing this, and the other people standing in the room also squeezed their eyebrows.
What kind of banquet, to say it so nicely, it's clearly climbing out of bed!
Tan Mo is also so disdainful, but she will never let herself reveal this disdain.
At this time, Tan Baolu came out, and everyone looked up at her.
Dressed in red dance clothes like fire, his naturally stretched waist is stretched like willow leaves, and a belt with a golden bell is wrapped around his waist.
Tan Fu's face changed, and he whispered sarcastically: "Snort, it's really humiliating to go out dressed like this." ”
Tan Mo also looked up and down, and her brows were slightly furrowed.
The material of this dress is by no means the best, and the maids in her house can also wear it during the New Year's holidays. But talking about Baolu's wonderful waist and figure, thin waist and plump hips, this dress seems to grow on her. If you are so beautiful, all men in the world will not be able to take their eyes off, right?
I'm afraid that if I didn't enter the palace this time, the saint would really be able to take a fancy to her?
Different from the thoughts of several little girls, Mrs. Tan glanced at Tan Baolu up and down, thinking that her appearance was not solemn enough, and she was naturally cheap like her mother, and pursed the corners of her mouth with disdain.
Tan Wei cared about his official career, he didn't bother to care what his daughter was wearing, and he didn't even see whether she was red or green today, so he hurriedly said, "Since you're ready, let's go quickly!" ”
"Yes." Tan Baolu followed and walked out.
As she walked through the corridor, she suddenly noticed two eyes behind her.
She looked back and saw that her twin siblings, Tanni and Tanjie, were squeezing into the corner of the door and smiling at her.
The two little turnips were too small to be pampered, and they were not allowed to come up to the front hall. But when they heard that their sister was going to enter the palace today, they wanted to come to see her sister, so they hid in the crack of the door and peeked at it. As soon as I saw her turn around, I smiled heartily, and my clean and innocent eyes were full of her.
In the last life, after her death, the Tan family was completely decayed, Tan Ni and Tan Jie were only in their teens, fostered in their aunt's house, and in the midst of war, no one could live a good life, and her aunt moved her family south, and Tan Ni and Tan Jie were separated on the way.
My aunt looked for it, Cen Jianan looked for it, and even she who had become a wandering spirit, but she couldn't find it, and they became one of the thousands of refugees.
Now the younger siblings stood in front of her dignifiedly, talking about Baolu's eyes red.
She held back her tears, raised her smile, and said to them with her mouth, "Wait for my sister, my sister will come back to see you in a few days." ”
They were often so amuseful that the two children could read her words through her lips, their eyebrows instantly curved, their cheeks bloomed with a big smile, and they nodded vigorously at her.
Tan Baolu walked out of Tan Mansion ruthlessly and boarded the carriage.
The carriage passed through the street and stopped at the gate outside the palace.
Tan Wei and the eldest lady went to the main hall for a banquet, while Tan Baolu was led by several palace maids and eunuchs and went to wait outside the palace until they received the will.
Tan Baolu was waiting outside, the weather had just begun to spring, and the snow began to fall as soon as the night fell. Xiaodong and Xiaoxi hurriedly draped a thin quilt on her and said, "Is the third young lady cold?" Can't we go somewhere warmer? ”
"I'm fine." Tan Baolu comforted them in turn. The palace never treats people as people, let alone a woman from a low background like her. She rubbed her hands, warmed her palms, and said, "This way it won't be cold." ”
After a long time, several eunuchs came this way.
Among them, the leader is a young man, dressed in red and with a jade belt, with a clean jaw, starry eyes and thin lips, and his appearance is not inferior to that of a woman.
The man came over and talked about Baolu in a trance for a while.
She recognized this person, the head of the eunuchs, the great eunuch Xu Yu.
In the last life, everyone thought that Xu Yu was He Dongyan's dog, but as a result, Cen Jianan's rebels entered the capital, and it was Xu Yu who opened the palace gate for Cen Jianan.
Xu Yu has always been a member of Cen Canaan.
When Xu Yu approached, Tan Baolu remembered that his identity had changed now, and hurriedly bowed to him, put his left hand and right hand, and lowered his head.
Xu Yu said softly: "Talking about girls, before facing the saint, you must check whether you have a sharp weapon on your body." ”
Tan Baolu nodded.
A grandmother in the palace rubbed her waist and sideburns, and replied to Xu Yu: "There is no sharp weapon on the girl. ”
"When the time comes, I will go up, and you will go up, and remember not to behave in a bad manner."
"Thank you, Grandpa Xu." Tan Baolu lowered her head again.
Xu Yu's footsteps paused slightly, and led the people to turn around and leave.
After walking a few steps, Xu Yu suddenly asked a few little eunuchs behind him: "Have you ever called our family?" ”
A clever little eunuch behind him hurriedly replied: "Back to Grandpa Xu, I have never called it." ”
Xu Yu thought about it, since no one had ever called him by name, how could this third girl from the Tan family, who was not out of the door, recognize his identity at a glance?
He turned his head and half-squinted at the three girls of the Tan family who were still waiting in the cold wind.
After waiting for so long, her back is still straight, her neck to shoulders are stretched smoothly, and even her head is proudly tilted upward.
For some reason, Xu Yu actually saw the taste of Fenglin in the world from this little girl.
This delicate little girl is not simple.
Tan Baolu was led to the main hall by the palace maid, and through an agate bead curtain, he could vaguely see the situation at this banquet.
There are drums and bells in the hall, the orchestra is silk bamboo, and the ministers of the court and the central government sit in order according to their official ranks, Tan Wei's official position is not too high, and he can only sit in the middle position, Mrs. Tan sits on his left side, and on the right side sits the top boss who is half a level higher than him. The pure gold dragon chair at the front was empty.
Tan Baolu was behind the curtain listening to the movement outside, and suddenly heard a voice from outside the curtain, "The emperor has arrived." ”
All the people in the temple knelt together, and she knelt with her.
She heard the familiar footsteps of He Dongyan.
She listened as he stepped onto the dragon chair.
Her heart hardened and froze.
In the previous life, she was killed by He Dongyan, how can she not take revenge?
After He Dongyan sat down, he said: "Zhong Aiqing is flat." ”
The ritual music resumed, and there was another burst of singing and dancing.
She heard Tan Wei say: "The little girl is good at dancing, and she can dance in the ice mirror, so that the little girl can congratulate the saint on her birthday." ”
"Ice Mirror Dance?" He Dongyan said with interest, "What is an ice mirror?" ”
"A flat mirror made of ice."
"How can a mirror made of ice stand and dance?"
"If you are as light as a swallow, you can dance in the ice mirror."
"Then I want to see," He Dongyan was overjoyed and said, "Xuan." ”
"Talk about the three girls." A eunuch walked around behind the curtain and said, "You can go." ”
"Yes." Tan Baolu slowly walked out around the curtain.
At this time, another announcement was heard, "King Wulie has arrived." ”
Tan Baolu paused, and her legs seemed to freeze in place.
King Wulie, that's Cen Canaan's title.
He used to be ...... all the time
