Chapter 145: Peacock Clothes (1)

"It's just dawn now, how can the Queen Mother's Ronghe Palace open the palace door so early. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe Queen Mother's schedule is no better than that of the emperor, you went over so early, did you have to sit on the steps and wait?"

Duan Qianqiu came to his senses at this time, and couldn't help but secretly scold himself for being confused. Seeing Zheng Bingrong enter the palace so early, he asked curiously: "I entered the palace so early for official business, Princess Bingrong, why did you enter the palace so early?"

Zheng Bingrong sighed and said, "Alas, it's not Princess Yang Yaxin yet, and she said that she wanted me to help her refer to the various sacrifices of her mother's ceremony." ”

As soon as he heard this, Duan Qianqiu knew that it was time to say goodbye to Zheng Bingrong, because when two or more women were discussing issues, men were redundant.

He was about to leave, but Zheng Bingrong suddenly grabbed him and said, "Oh, by the way, there was originally something that I brought to Yu Xin, but now that you are here, it is the most convenient for you to bring Yu Xin." ”

"What's that?"

"The crystal pear blossom cake made by Ye Chulong. Zheng Bingrong looked at him with a grin and said.

Duan Qianqiu said strangely: "Why did the pastries made by Chu Long actually come to your hands?"

Mei Fang thought it was delicious, so he brought it to me, and I thought it was delicious, so he brought it over to Yu Xin. ”

"Oh, then you can just give it to Princess Yuxin, I'm busy with official business, so I'll leave first. ”

Zheng Bingrong saw that Duan Qianqiu was leaving, so he jumped in front of him, looked at him with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said, "Aren't you a little weak-hearted?"

Duan Qianqiu smiled and said, "What do I have to be weak-hearted?

"Then why don't you dare to go with me to Ya Xin?"

"You girls' families get together and talk about intimate topics, and I'm embarrassed to be there alone. Don't go!"

"Actually, it's not all private words, you have just become the secretary of Dali Temple and took over the disappearance case of the daughters of famous families in Kyoto, don't you want to know how these daughters of famous families usually live? Who are the people you come into contact with? What hobbies do you have on weekdays, and what enemies do you have? Don't you want to know any of this?" Zheng Bingrong said with a smile.

"Yes!"

"Then you should ask the two of us more. ”

Duan Qianqiu sighed: "Of course you two mean that you still have Princess Yuxin, right?"

"In Yehuang City, no matter what is going on in any corner, as long as it is about women. I must have been the first to hear from me. Zheng Bingrong said proudly.

"It can be seen that Princess Bingrong must have been the leader of the group for a long time, but it is still so early, Duan is a certain man. It's very inappropriate to go to Princess Yuxin's Qingluan Palace, so I'd better wait for a later time and ask you for advice. ”

Zheng Bingrong said with a smile: "Lord Duan, don't avoid suspicion, I originally asked a man to go to Qingluan Palace. ”

"Man, who is it?"

"This time of year. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will prepare a peacock robe for Yu Xin's deceased mother, Queen Wan, as a sacrifice. The peacock clothing is made of peculiar materials, and under the morning light, it will emit the illusion of colorful banlan, and it is necessary to rely on the sunlight to finally complete the last process of making the whole garment. Therefore, every year in the early morning of these days, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will wait for Yu Xin in the imperial garden to check the color of the peacock clothes according to the will of the current queen. ”

"Peacock clothes?"

"Exactly, Empress Wan was good at dancing the peacock dance, and the peacock dress, as her exclusive dance skirt, was the clothes that the palace Shangyi Bureau had to sew every year. But after her early death, as the old tailors of the Shangyi Bureau passed away one by one, gradually no one would do it. It wasn't until the current queen found a few craftsmen from Dali, Yunnan Province who specialized in dressing to make them, that she was able to burn a peacock dress to her mother in the annual memorial service, and this tradition lasted for seven years. And each time the dress was sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself. ”

Duan Qianqiu had heard of these palace secrets for the first time, but since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also went to the Imperial Garden, it wouldn't be too embarrassing to think about it, so he went with Zheng Bingrong.

In the Imperial Garden, there is a lot of purple and red everywhere. I saw dewdrops dripping on the various flowers, the new leaves on the poplar branches gently blowing the warm breeze, and dotted in the center of this beautiful scenery was a pavilion on a small lotus pond. Just like the core on the flower identification, it is the most eye-catching.

In this pavilion, Yang Yaxin was wearing a pale pink long skirt and a plain white gauze dress, and her elegant outfit was blown by the wind. It looks like a single book, like a white lotus swaying on the water surface when the wind blows the lotus pond.

Yang Qixin was a little surprised by Duan Qianqiu's arrival, but she quickly regained her usual plain and quiet expression, and said, "How did you two come here together?"

Zheng Bingrong smiled: "He was deceived by me." ”

"Liar?!"

"Lord Duan was afraid that the time was too early, and coming to see Her Royal Highness the Princess would cause criticism, so he was originally reluctant to come. But I lied to him that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would also come, so he came with him. Zheng Bingrong looked at Duan Qianqiu and smiled.

Duan Qianqiu opened his mouth to explain something.

Yang Yuxin smiled and said, "Sister Bingrong, but you may be disappointed this time, because Brother Prince is really coming over." ”

"Oh, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wouldn't really want to send a peacock coat over!" Zheng Bingrong said in surprise.

"Yes, Brother Crown Prince sends someone to deliver it every year, but this year, he sent it himself. ”

"Well, this year is the twentieth anniversary of the Empress Wan, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may also be there to show grandeur!" Zheng Bingrong said.

"No, Bingrong, this king is just using peacock clothes to express a thought. A voice came from a path shaded by flowers and trees outside the flower garden, the sound was strong and powerful, like a dragon roaring and a lion roaring, very powerful.

Zheng Bingrong stuck out his tongue and said, "Your Royal Highness the Prince, next time Bingrong will never dare to speak ill of you behind your back." ”

I saw a noble and graceful young man walking slowly on the bluestone steps of the flower path, his face showed a jade-like look, his eyes were large and bright, and his eyes revealed a resolute and calm, only occasionally flashed a deep and unpredictable expression, which was terrifying.

Prince Yang Yanchen.

Duan Qianqiu once had a relatively in-depth contact with the prince when he met the emperor in the imperial study and discussed the opening of the sea ban, and Duan Qianqiu had a deep impression of the prince's decisiveness in acting.

At that time, the prince analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides according to the situation, and made military arrangements and judgments for the rebellion of Han Zhuhu in Jiannan Province, and even Yang Heng's art of war was highly appreciated by everyone.

And although Duan Qianqiu is also an official in the court now, because the time is still short, and he spends most of his time performing official duties outside, he almost can't see this extremely powerful prince in the court on weekdays. (To be continued.) )
