Chapter 123: Song Dynasty Rose
Originally, Bai Yu was preparing to make some moon cakes and twist flowers on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but tomorrow I want to enter the palace to participate in the banquet, although it is a dinner party, it is definitely impossible to perfect it, and it takes a lot of effort to make moon cakes and twist flowers.
That's a lot to do, and it's going to take a lot of effort to do these things here, but of course in modern times, it's just a good thing to do without much effort.
Thinking like this, Bai Yu was busy in the kitchen.
Early the next morning, Bai Yu dug up from the bed with the moon painting.
"Little master, we are going to enter the palace today, and let's go back to sleep after the palace banquet is over. ”
Seeing Bai Yu's bewildered expression and longing to fall on the bed again, Yuehua couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth and said slowly.
Bai Yu glanced at the sky outside, it was already bright, and he couldn't help but support his forehead.
"Sister Yuehua, can't you let me sleep a little longer?" At this moment, Bai Yu's heart collapsed, when is this time, the sky is dawning, yes, but there is still a long time before the dinner, can't you sleep a little longer?
When Yuehua saw Bai Yu, she wanted to cry without tears, and she was not annoyed, so she took a comb to comb her hair.
"Little master, enter the palace early later, and go to the queen's palace to have a look. ”
"You and the princess don't often go to the palace, so you can't, let's go to the dinner party. ”
After hearing Yuehua's words, Bai Yu, who was devastated, also knew that she was reasonable, so she pursed her mouth and finally didn't make a sound.
Today is a banquet, and Bai Yu originally wanted to wear a riding costume, but let him say that the moon painting was not worn for her, but put on a palace costume.
Bai Yu's appearance does not belong to the gaudy type, it is a goose-yellow dress that she picked out with a moon painting, which is lined with silver thread embroidery, which looks very good, and when the clothes are put on, the hair is combed, and the time is almost up, the eldest princess walked in from outside.
"Yu'er, are you okay?"
As the voice of the eldest princess sounded, I saw that the eldest princess was wearing a purple palace dress, her hair was in a high bun, and she had a hairpin of mutton fat and white jade on her head, and walked in with a gentle and graceful expression, looked at the white jade that had been freshened, and nodded: "Okay, let's go quickly." ”
Hearing this, Bai Yu got up and straightened her skirt, stood up, went to the kitchen, packed the finished moon cakes and twist flowers in a food box, and went out with the eldest princess.
When he walked to the door, he found that Song Chaogui was being helped by someone to get into the carriage.
The Song Dynasty swept away the flamboyance in the past, and there was some gentleness in her expression, as if what happened to her these days was not what happened to her.
Seeing this, Bai Yu couldn't help frowning.
After Wei Yuxuan chose a son-in-law for Song Chaogui, the eldest princess gave her medicine, and the injuries on her body were healed, as for whether there was a scar on her body, I don't know, but Bai Yu pondered that it should have a scar, because at this end of time, the doctor in the house has not been broken, and Song Tian's side is handled by the imperial doctor, so it can only be Song Chaozhuo.
I don't know if it's for the eldest princess to be scared or what, after it's good, she didn't come to Jichangyuan to make trouble, even in the Chaogui Courtyard, it was quiet, as if the person who made the world before was not her.
Originally, Bai Yu thought, she didn't make trouble, and when she knew that her mother had found a good marriage for her, she should always make trouble, but Bai Yu guessed wrong, after her cheap mother chose the little son of the Ministry of Rites for her, Wei Yuxuan was ventilated with that side, and the other side was naturally overjoyed, you know, Song Chaogui is the most favored county lord of the saint, and their son still has defects in his body, and he must be undesirable to be able to climb this family business.
As for how Song Chaogui could have taken a fancy to their son, it was completely out of their consideration.
A wasted son, can climb such a good family business, they can't ask for it, even if there is something unsightly in the Song Dynasty, they all admit it, who makes her favored, maybe marry her, and their family will be developed.
Thinking like this, I hurriedly let the preparations go, and found someone to look at the date, just at the beginning of September.
After the date was set, Bai Yu thought that Song Chaogui would make trouble now, but she still didn't make trouble, as if there was no such thing, she nested in her own court.
Her reaction surprised Bai Yu for a long time, at this moment, the whole person was gentle and gentle, as if she had changed a person, you must know that a person's temperament is cultivated from a young age, and it cannot be changed overnight.
Especially a self-centered person like Song Chaogui.
While thinking about it, I heard Song Chaogui's voice slowly sounding.
"Chao Gui has seen the eldest princess. ”
Song Chaozhuo's voice sounded, and Bai Yu felt more and more that there was something wrong with this Song Dynasty Gui.
You must know that the abnormal state of affairs is a demon, Song Chaogui was spoiled and grew up, and that temperament is used to it, and she can't wait for everyone to be trampled under her feet.
The eldest princess didn't react much, and glanced at her lightly: "Get up." ”
As he spoke, he took Bai Yu and walked over to the carriage that Yuehua had prepared for them.
Song Chaogui has been standing respectfully beside him, waiting for the eldest princess and a few people to get into the carriage, then slowly raised her head, her slightly raised eyes were full of hatred, where was the gentleness before.
The hand under the wide sleeve has been directly poked at the tip of the onion.
"County Lord, let's go??"
The maid who was waiting on the side saw Song Chaogui standing there without reacting, and called out in a low voice, but she was faintly worried in her heart.
Song Chaozhui, who was looking at the backs of Bai Yu and the eldest princess, came back to his senses after hearing Ye'er's voice, hooked the corners of his mouth, and slowly got into the carriage.
"Mother, this Song Dynasty is not right. ”
In the carriage, Bai Yu sat on the carriage and said slowly.
When the eldest princess heard this, she smiled: "What's wrong with it? What kind of waves can you turn over?" For Song Chaozhuo, the eldest princess really didn't like it, she was spoiled by heaven since she was a child, and she didn't have much in her head, and there were only some small tricks to hurt people, she really didn't take her seriously.
After thinking about it, she still paused, and looked at Bai Yu who was sitting next to her: "However, Yu'er, you better be careful, she is a bit abnormal like this." ”
Bai Yu heard the eldest princess say this, and couldn't help but shrug her shoulders: "Mother, don't worry, I have Sister Yuehua by my side, and the secret guard that my uncle gave me, it's amazing, Song Chaogui is holding back, and she is the one who is unlucky in the end." ”
She didn't believe that Song Chaogui had reformed in this way, but she was not afraid that she would hold back any badness, and she was still very confident in the secret guard that her uncle gave her.
When the eldest princess saw Bai Yu say this, she didn't say anything more, after all, she still knew about the person who was placed next to her daughter.
The distance between the Anping Marquis Mansion and the palace is not very far, and the two talked for a while, but they didn't know that they had arrived, and the two helped Yueqin and Yuehua to get out of the carriage.
As soon as he entered the palace gate, someone greeted him.
"The eldest princess, the slave maid is Hu Xi, the female official in charge of the Fengluo Palace, and the queen mother knows that the eldest princess and Princess Rong'an will enter the palace, so let the slave and maid welcome her here. ”
When Bai Yu heard this, it was actually someone sent by the queen, and he looked at her quietly, only to see that she was dressed differently from ordinary palace maids, the fabric and the standard of clothes were very different, and she was in her forties, with a calm and humble expression, but she was not flattering.
"Since the queen asked you to welcome me, then I will go to Fengluo Palace to sit down first. ”
Hearing this, the eldest princess nodded.
As the voice of the eldest princess sounded, Hu Xi saluted the eldest princess and Bai Yu, stood behind the eldest princess and Bai Yu, and the group went to Fengluo Palace.
A few people just walked a few steps, and a woman wearing the same clothes as Hu Xi walked over quickly, and Hu Xi, who was following behind the eldest princess, couldn't help frowning when he saw the comer.
"The slave maid has seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, Princess Rong'an. ”
The man walked up to the eldest princess, knelt on the ground, and saluted the two of them.
Seeing this, the eldest princess paused and did not make a sound.
"The slave maid is the female official in charge of the Changchun Palace, Shu Guifei Niangniang heard that the eldest princess brought Princess Rong'an into the palace, and asked the slave maid to come out to pick up the eldest princess and Princess Rong'an to Changchun Palace. ”
Concubine Shu is the eldest princess after she ran away, Lingyu Na, is the daughter of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, and now the Zhenguo General who is guarding the border is her brother, who is deeply loved, if there is no heir, I am afraid that even the queen will give in, even now, the queen is also a little jealous.
At this time, the female official was asked to pick up people, and the jade white jade cake was prepared, making it clear that she was going to intercept people.
"Lady Zhou, you're late, the eldest princess is already preparing to go to Fengluo Palace. ”
Although there is no big conflict between Fengluo Palace and Changchun Palace, Concubine Shu has no heirs, and the queen mother generally does not care about her, but Concubine Shu is arrogant and never puts the queen in her eyes, and the queen as the mother of a country is naturally still a little unsafe, and the relationship between the two palaces is not very good.
Hearing the female officer say this, Hu Xi walked out slowly, looked at the female officer kneeling on the ground and said.
Female official Zhou is a female official of Changchun Palace, after hearing Hu Xi say this, she raised her head, looked at Hu Xi and smiled: "Female official Hu, can you be the master of the eldest princess??"
Female Officer Zhou didn't say much, but just such a sentence made Hu Xi suddenly collapse, and his face turned pale.
Originally, Lady Zhou came to invite the eldest princess, but when she said this, isn't she the lord of the eldest princess? Thinking like this, Hu Xi turned around and knelt but was supported by a hand.
As soon as Hu Xi looked up, he saw Bai Yu in a goose-yellow palace dress standing in front of him, stunned.
Seeing that Hu Xi was stunned, Bai Yu couldn't help but smile at her, and turned her head to look at Female Officer Zhou who was kneeling on the ground.
"She can't be the master, I can, right??"
"We're going to the Wind Fall Palace. ”
For the queen mother of Fengluo Palace, Bai Yu has never seen it, and she doesn't know what kind of person she is, but she has seen Lingxun, Lingxun is good to her, and Changchun Palace came here to intercept people at this time, and it is clear that she did not take Fengluo Palace in her eyes.
After Bai Yu's words were finished, Lady Zhou pursed her lips, but even a few months ago, the masters in the palace knew about Princess Nanyang, and they also knew that the eldest princess could be provoked, and the most unprovoked was Princess Rong'an, which was the meat of the eldest princess's heart.
At this time, Princess Rong'an said so, the eldest princess would definitely not go, and bowed to the eldest princess, got up and gave way.
As soon as a few people left, Lady Zhou went to Changchun Palace.
In Fengluo Palace, the queen's heart was a little apprehensive, not long after Hu Xi went out, it was reported that there were also people in Changchun Palace who went to the palace gate, the eldest princess's temperament has always been casual, and now in this harem, Concubine Shu did not put her in her eyes, if the eldest princess went to Changchun Palace again, then she was afraid that it would be more and more difficult for the queen to gain a foothold in the harem.
While he was thinking about it, he saw the palace maid outside walking in quickly.
"Niangniang, the eldest princess and Princess Rong'an are here. ”
The queen was stunned when she heard this, and immediately laughed: "Where are you, this palace will go to greet you." ”
The queen is a noble girl in Kyoto, and she naturally knows about the eldest princess, but when the eldest princess is not out of the cabinet, she is a maverick, except for the young lady of the Shangshu family, she rarely has deep friendships with people, and after entering the palace, it didn't take long for the eldest princess to marry the Anping Marquis Mansion, although she will also enter the palace, but in the end the intersection between the two is still relatively small.
Before the saint sent the princess Nanyang in the Yilan Palace, the prince was there, the reason for this, she naturally knew, she knew that the eldest princess was very important to the saint, and now she naturally paid more and more attention to it, and when she heard the palace maid coming to report, she hurriedly took someone out to greet her.
As soon as he came out of the main hall, he saw Hu Xi and the eldest princess walking over after a few steps.
"Sister Huang is here. ”
The eldest princess is the royal sister of the spiritual realm, and the queen mother is naturally younger than the eldest princess, so when she saw the eldest princess, she greeted her directly.
As he spoke, his eyes fell on Bai Yu, who was following the eldest princess.
"This is Yu'er, right??"
The queen was not called Bai Yu Rong'an, but her name.
The eldest princess nodded when she heard this, and Bai Yu, who was walking next to her, saw this and walked slowly to the queen: "Bai Yu has seen the queen's mother." ”
Bai Yu originally wanted to call her aunt, after all, she was the wife of her cheap uncle, but after thinking about it, she finally forgot it, the cheap uncle asked her to call her uncle, it doesn't mean that the queen thinks so in her heart, she opened her mouth to call her aunt, in case people are not happy.
But she didn't want the queen to hurriedly smile after hearing Bai Yu's words: "Feelings, you call the saint uncle, and call me Niangniang." ”
When Bai Yu heard this, he couldn't help but hold his forehead: "Uncle." ”
When the queen heard this, she immediately burst into laughter, and the palace maid who was waiting beside her smiled and said, "Niangniang likes princesses, but the princess and the eldest princess are still standing at this time." ”
As the voice of the palace maid sounded, the queen and several people entered the Luofeng Hall together.
"Sister Huang, I asked someone to prepare a jade white jade cake, can you taste it??"
As soon as a few people entered the hall and sat down, someone brought a pastry up, the jade white jade cake is a good name, in fact, it is a little green cake in the white, this cake has just come up, the eldest princess has not reacted, but the white jade, looking at the jade white jade cake with burning eyes.
As a chef, Bai Yu is not a foodie, but he has a strong curiosity about the food he has never seen and eaten.
Her cheap lady likes to eat so much, it should taste good, right??
While thinking about it, the eldest princess on the side couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth when she saw this, and became more and more helpless to Bai Yu, and was about to speak, when the queen mother sitting opposite the eldest princess saw this, she brought the stack of jade and white jade cakes to Bai Yu.
"This is your mother's favorite food, try it??"
Bai Yu wanted to eat it, but he was not polite when he saw this, he directly took a piece and put it in his mouth, and when he entered it, Bai Yu's eyes suddenly narrowed.
The pastry is soft and glutinous, with a faint jasmine fragrance, and a touch of coolness in the mouth, which tastes really good.
It's what her cheap mother likes to eat.
After thinking about it, he took another piece and put it in his mouth, this jade white jade cake tasted good, and Bai Yu ate three pieces in a row before stopping.
"But you still like to eat?? If you like it, I will ask the imperial chef to follow you back today, when the time comes, when you want to eat, let the imperial chef cook and eat, and you won't be worried about entering the palace, and you won't be able to eat." ”
The queen watched Bai Yu eat several pieces, and asked slowly, the eldest princess on the side also had this meaning, the difficult daughter likes to eat and can't do it, so she wants a royal chef to go back, make it for her daughter every day, and make it whenever she wants to eat.
saw Bai Yu wave his hand: "Then I guess I'll get tired of eating, I'll come to the palace when I want to eat, can't it be that my aunt thinks I'm in trouble with coming frequently??"
Bai Yu looked at the queen playfully, and the queen was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly smiled: "Why, I wish you would come to the palace every day." ”
"By the way, I also brought some snacks to the palace for my aunt and uncle to taste, and my aunt ate and saw whether she liked it or not. ”
Bai Yu had eaten a snack, and only then did he remember that he had brought something here, which was originally intended to be sent to the Spirit Domain, but who knew that when he came to Fengluo Palace, it was all for them to eat, so he simply put it in Luofeng Palace.
As he spoke, the moon painting standing behind Bai Yu handed the food box to Bai Yu's hand, and Bai Yu took out the moon cakes and twist flowers inside.
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, this is moon cakes and twist flowers, aunt try it?"
Without waiting for the queen to make a move, he directly took a moon cake and handed it to the eldest princess: "Mother, can you taste it too??"
After doing this yesterday, it was already very late, and naturally the eldest princess hadn't tasted it.
Seeing this, the eldest princess smiled, stretched out her hand to take the moon cake in Bai Yu's hand, and the queen also took a piece.
Entrance, the eldest princess is fine, she has eaten all kinds of food snacks made by white jade, and the moon cakes are delicious, but she is not too surprised, but the queen is different.
"Yu'er, this snack is really good. ”
The queen has a sweet tooth, and this moon cake is made of red bean filling, which tastes sweet but not greasy.
Bai Yu smiled when she heard this: "If my aunt likes it, well, in the future, Yu'er's restaurant will be opened, you can come to cheer, and it is inconvenient for my aunt to come out, so Yu'er can ask my cousin to bring you in." ”
Chen Qing couldn't cultivate for long, and Bai Yu advertised his restaurant all the time.
Although Baixianglou is famous, there is no need for advertising, and some people will come to it, but she just can't help it.
When the queen heard this, she was stunned: "The restaurant opened by Yu'er??"
"Yes, my aunt has already eaten my snack, so she won't refuse. Bai Yu nodded solemnly.
The queen, who was eating this moon cake, suddenly laughed when she heard this: "Okay, okay, aunt will definitely cheer you up." ”
As she spoke, the queen turned her gaze to the eldest princess sitting on the side: "Sister Huang, this girl Yu'er is very well-behaved, but she can let others??"
As soon as the queen's words were finished, Bai Yu, who was sitting on the side, suddenly stiffened, and was about to speak, but the eldest princess shook her head with a smile: "Not yet" glanced at Bai Yu with a smile, and paused: "But I heard that there is a favorite person." ”
What? I heard that? Who did you say?
As soon as Bai Yu heard the eldest princess's words, she immediately exploded.
The queen, who originally had some plans in her heart, was stunned after hearing the eldest princess's words, but quickly reacted: "That feeling is good, it seems that I am ready to add something." ”
The identity of Bai Yu is known to the queen, and such a question is just a casual question, but it is just a plan to marry Bai Yu to the outstanding children in the clan and live, so she simply let Ling Xun marry Bai Yu, so that they and the eldest princess are connected, and Xun'er's status as the prince may no longer be shaken.
But I don't want Bai Yu to have a favorite person.
As soon as the queen's words were finished, Bai Yu couldn't help but think of what Ji Linyuan said yesterday, and couldn't help blushing.
"Well, aunt, it's still early. ”
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Yu couldn't wait to give herself a mouthful, it was still early, what kind of stuff was she talking about.
Originally, the eldest princess who was still joking about Bai Yu, after hearing Bai Yu's words, suddenly felt a little bad.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard the voice of the palace maid behind him.
"Niangniang, the concubine Niangniang is here. ”
As soon as the palace maid's words were finished, the queen, who was originally eating moon cakes and talking, suddenly stiffened with a smile on her face, Concubine Shu, what are you doing here at this time!!
Although she was unhappy in her heart, the queen still didn't show it on her face, and looked at the palace maid kneeling on the ground: "Hurry up and invite the concubine Niangniang to come in." ”
The voice of the most suitable queen sounded, and a proud and smiling voice suddenly sounded: "Sister smiled, sister came uninvited." ”
As she spoke, a woman dressed in a scarlet palace dress walked in, it was none other than Concubine Shu of Changchun Palace, and as her voice sounded, Concubine Shu slowly walked in front of the queen and the eldest princess, and bent down to bless her body.
"The concubine has seen the queen mother, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess. ”
Concubine Shu is about the same age as the queen, but she is dressed in a scarlet palace dress but she doesn't make people feel out of place, but it makes people feel that Concubine Shu should wear such a crimson color, white cheeks, phoenix eyes and eyebrows, high bun, and eight treasure glass hairpins on her head, graceful and bright, good-looking tight, with endless charm and indescribable temperament in her gestures.
Rao is Bai Yu said that he had seen a lot of beauties, and he couldn't help but be a little stunned when he saw Concubine Shu at this time, but it was just a blink of an eye, and then his eyes moved slightly behind Concubine Shu.
The person standing behind Concubine Shu was none other than Song Chaozhuo, who met at the gate of the Hou Mansion when he went out today!
