The matter of Emperor Wen Yi turned out to be three days later. www. Xiao Tang, who was in charge of pastry materials in the imperial kitchen, said that he had negligently mixed two kinds of powders, which caused Emperor Ji to be uncomfortable.

When the news came, I was wearing a snow-white silk gauze with Ling Rong and embroidered a double-sided embroidery on an ebony frame. Double-sided embroidery is the most important thing in the needle skills and the eye-catching thinking of the embroiderer. It is necessary to hide thousands of thread tips in the embroidery without a trace. One more stitch, one less stitch, one stitch, or one stitch slant will deform or discolor the pattern.

The embroidered is a long journey to the spring mountain. Hundreds of green greens are gradually fascinating. After watching for a long time, my head is slightly dizzy. Through the soft curtain of the lake green crepe, the shadows of the shade fell on the ground. Outside the curtain, Jinxi and the palace maids were slimming the large Minghua material sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, stirring the fine butterflies in the shadow jumped and flashed, and the light and shadows were cluttering, as if they were about to condense the last time of the sky in summer.

I stood up and rubbed my sour neck, took a sip of the fragrant sausage and said, "What do you think?"

Ling Rong compared the color of silk thread to the sunlight with his heart, and a faint smile on his lips, "This is the coincidence that Empress Hua Fei said."

I chuckled, "Why do you like to talk around the bush?"

Ling Rong put down the silk thread in his hand and pursed her lips, "Yes. Follow my sister's order." Then he said slowly, "The emperor wants to investigate thoroughly, and Xiao Tang will take the lead. But someone did not want the emperor to investigate and ordered the chess piece." However, she was confused again, "It's just... the emperor punished Xiao Tang for the crime of dereliction of duty and died of a stick."

I held the fragrant sausage and drank it in my hand, looked at the busy figure of the palace maid outside the curtain, and said lightly: "Of course I have to kill you. If you continue to investigate, it will be a palace scandal. It will cause little trouble to the censors and the queen mother. In the eyes of the subjects, I may have fallen into the royal dignity." I chewed the fragrant sausage in my mouth and slowly said: "Why do the emperor not understand the truth that we all understand? I just can't touch her for the time being."

Seeing that Ling Rong seemed confused, he stretched out his finger and poked the window screen to the southwest. Ling Rong immediately understood and sighed in a low voice: "As the emperor, as the emperor, has so much helplessness."

I curled my fingers slightly, pursed my hair, and said word by word: "The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook. I am just waiting for the day when the Murong family birds are all covered with bows."

Ling Rong was silent for a moment, picked up a scented medicinal grape and chewed it slowly in his mouth, and said, "Ling Rong just felt that his sister was working hard."

I said, "How can we not work hard on the storm of glory and grace?"

Ling Rong clapped his hands and smiled, "But the emperor has been very good to his sister these days." She calmed down, "Actually, the emperor is very good to his sister."

This sentence was heard and I remembered the words I said when I sat with Xuan Lingxian the afternoon before.

He held me on his knees and peeled the watermelons and ate them together, rubbed the temples with red watermelons and jade hands, and the two of them spoke softly, so beautiful scenery.

I pressed it into his ear and said softly: "Why does Silang believe that Huanhuan is innocent?"

He was peeling the red rind, thinking that he was not used to doing this, and he was very unfamiliar with the mottled dark red peel on the snow-white flesh. He said, "You are Silang's Huanhuan, how could I not believe you as my husband?"

He felt warm and comfortable in his heart, and he said angrily: "Just for this? No wonder the concubines always say that Silang is partial to me, it seems that it is true."

He put down the kettle in his hand and said seriously: "Huanhuan won't do such a thing." He said, grabbing my hand and said: "Then do you dig out my heart and look at it. Are you leaning against you or others?"

I blushed and spat, "I'm going to return the king of a country. I'm talking so hard and so hard, and I'm just laughing at me."

He smiled without saying a word, peeled a complete horn and put it in my mouth, and said, "Is it delicious?"

He frowned and swallowed it whole, "It's so astringent, it's not clean." He couldn't help but smiled, "Silang held the universe in his hand, so how could he do such things? Just leave the small water chestnut to Huanhuan for treatment." As he said that, he peeled several pieces of skin and put them in his palm. He smiled, "Sweet and crispy, very sweet and extraordinary. It's your skill."

I smiled, "This is the water-red water from Jiangnan, which is crisp, tender, fresh and refreshing, full of fragrance. Naturally unusual."

While speaking, Xuan Ling ate a few more pieces and slowly closed her eyes and savored them, "The taste of this red lily is clear but not greasy, just like your piano and your dance."

I laughed out loud, "I am greedy and have a lot of hope. The ancients said it is really good. I peeled the diamonds and thought about letting me dance."

He couldn't help but smile: "What kind of dance are you doing? I just think about it for nothing." Then he said: "I can't do it if you want to dance, but I can't do it. It's so uncomfortable to dance all over sweat."

I said with a "ah": "Others are 'icy skin and jade bones, and they are cool and sweatless'1. The emperor made fun of me as a sweater who made of water." He deliberately turned around and ignored him and let him coax him for a long time. He looked back and smiled at him.

After thinking about it for a moment, I suddenly felt that I shouldn’t think about it silently at this time. I always have to say something, otherwise I would be as if I had neglected Ling Rong to show off something to her. So I said with a smile: “The emperor is also very good to my sister.”

Ling Rong suddenly showed a nearly sad look, and looked at the hundreds of dazzling green silk threads on the embroidery stand, one by one, and it was smooth. I saw her strange expression. Xuan Ling was also good to her, so why was she dissatisfied with her as a favorite concubine? However, Ling Rong was more sensitive than others, so she couldn't ask. After a while, she saw her Zhan Yan and said, "Why did my sister suddenly want to embroider this? It took so much effort and effort to work hard."

I stepped forward and looked at it quietly for a while, touched the smooth embroidery material and said, "It's really a matter of hard work. However, the more hard you spend your time thinking, the more you can test a person's mind and endurance."

Ling Rong said: "My sister always speaks so profoundly. What does embroidery have to do with her mind? Ling Rong doesn't understand."

I changed the tea for her, sat down again and raised the needle to embroidery, and said gently: "Sometimes, it's a blessing to not understand. It's best not to understand forever."

Ling Rong smiled and changed the topic: "My sister wants to embroider double-sided embroidery on a whim. I don't know how much time it takes. I'm going to return to the palace in a few days, and I'm afraid it will be a labor force to mobilize all the troops."

I just looked down and embroidered, and said without raising my head: "Not mentioning an embroidery frame, I want to move all the remaining lotus in front of the Yifu Pavilion to Taiye Pool. Who dares to say "no" in front of me?"

Ling Rong clapped his hands with a smile and said, "Yes, yes, yes. I'm afraid my sister will go to Taiye Lake and go to Taiye Lake, so the emperor will only say it's a good idea."

I couldn't help but smile: "How come you have learned to be so slick."

After embroidering for a while, his hands began to sweat. He was afraid that the color of the silk thread would be stained, so he got up to wash his hands. Seeing Huanbi carefully picking up the colors of this season's clothes, her green dress was like a new lotus color curling under the sunlight. On the earlobe, I gave her the pearl earrings the size of a little finger, shook like stars with her every move. I suddenly remembered something, as if I had remembered a half-star bright dawn in the twists and turns that day, and how cruel and dark the light was behind the dawn, I actually told me not to reveal it for a moment and take a look. Finally, I couldn't stand it. If it was true, how could I let others sleep with me on the side of the pillow, and it was like hanging on my head, as if I was exhausted. Take a deep breath and called out: "Huanbi--"

Huanbi heard the sound and said, "Miss, do you want to change the tea and fruit?"

I looked her eyes and smiled and said, "Last time, you went to the imperial kitchen to get cassava flour and wanted to make pearls, go and make some for snacks."

Huanbi was slightly stunned and said, "Why did the lady suddenly remember to eat this? After the last incident, I felt foul and threw it all away."

"Oh. It's such a coincidence. I'm still thinking about this taste." I said, "That's fine, just do something." I turned around and asked Ling Rong: "Is there a new chestnut cake that the emperor has appreciated today, and Is it good to have another bowl of eight-treasure sweet cheese?"

Ling Rong said gentlely: "Sister is just making the idea."

After eating dim sum with Lingrong, they parted. Seeing the palace maids and internal supervisors ordering the soft and soft bags when they returned to the palace for a while, they felt that they were a little more energetic and went to embroider.

Calmness, this calmness has been maintained until the Mid-Autumn Festival after returning to the palace.

As usual, we have to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in Ziao City. The day of returning to the palace was set on the fifth day of the eighth month. When the concubines came back, the car in Meizhuang was strictly guarded and could not get off the car easily. Huafei's green robe carriage followed closely behind the Queen Feng's carriage, and it was dazzling, sweeping away the decadent aura when it came. Concubine Xu, Feng Shuyi and Concubine Xin, I and Concubine Cao were followed by me and Concubine Cao, and Ling Rong followed him. After two days of hard work, I returned to Ziao City. Although I was riding in a car, I felt tired. Fortunately, Tangli Palace had already prepared it properly. After washing it, I fell asleep in a daze.

The Mid-Autumn Festival etiquette was complicated, and Xuan Ling gave a banquet to court officials outside. In the evening, the harem held another family banquet. The queen was very lively. The eldest son Yuli, Shuhe, and Wen Yi, the two emperors Chenghuan, were very cute.

According to the ritual system, the family banquet was held in Huiguang Hall, the first hall of the main gate of the harem. The kings and the wife of the inside and outside were there. The empress dowager seemed to be in great interest, but several concubines were accompanied by them. The empress dowager was promoted to the throne to the south, and the empress dowager sat on both sides. The stage was set up in the south of the hall, and the dance skills were performed. The empress dowager led the concubines, princes, and princess to tea and wine to celebrate the long life of the empress dowager.

After the congratulations, they all returned to their positions and sat down. The music of the court was played over and over again. The singers in the band used their loud voices to curb the sound of the clouds and sang a birthday toasts with the music.

As the most noble elder of this huge, prominent and noble family, the Queen Mother can naturally enjoy glory and pride that no one can experience. This is the first time I have seen the Queen Mother who has imagined countless times in my mind. Although my position is far from the Queen Mother's throne, it cannot suppress my admiration and longing for the Queen Mother in the rumors. The rumors of various opinions have made me draw the outline of the Queen Mother's solemn and prosperous palace first lady in my heart, but when I really saw her, my peaceful and quiet demeanor made me feel a little surprised.

.Because it was a family banquet, the Queen Mother's dress was luxurious but not grand. She was dressed in blue-blonde clothes, which was simple and refreshing and atmospheric. Her hair was only decorated with jade and southern beads, and her face was also light. The Queen Mother was not very beautiful. Perhaps because she recited too much Buddhist scriptures, she had a faint and glamorous demeanor, which was fascinating to see. Since she was the noblest woman in this dynasty, she should have lived a superior life that could not be reached by ordinary people, but for some reason her face was a light haggard look, which was because she was too careful in worshiping the Buddha.

When the empress dowager saw the dozens of concubines under her seat, she looked very pleased and said to Xuan Ling: "The emperor must have equal rain and dew to make the descendants of the harem proliferate." She also said to the empress: "You are the lord of the harem, so you must take more care of the emperor and don't ask him to worry about the worries." The empress received the order, and the empress talked with the empress to admire the moon. Although the empress was her niece, she was just a polite and alienated attitude and was not very close. It also confirmed that the rumor that the empress dowager had never cared about the empress.

Because the King of Runan was expeditioning to the southwest, only the princess He was present. The queen mother smiled and said, "Your prince is not here, you must take good care of your health and take care of the prince." As he said, he ordered someone to reward her with something. He bowed to thank the queen mother for his concern. The queen mother said to Xuanfen, "I heard that Fener is very good, and his poetry, books, and riding and shooting are very good. The queen mother of the Ai family is also relieved." He turned around and said to Concubine Shunchen and Concubine Zhuang and Concubine, "You have a good son." Concubine Shunchen was humble, and Prince Xuanfen of Pingyang was always raised by Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Zhuang. Now, when the empress dowager said this, she was so relieved that she burst into tears.

Because Xuanqing has been raised by the empress dowager since Concubine Shu left the palace, the empress dowager was even more kind when she saw him, so she pulled him down and smiled and said, "Qing'er is the least reassurance of the Ai family. It would be better if someone comes to control you when the wedding is done. It can be considered that the Ai family has had an explanation to your mother for so many years."

Xuan Qing smiled: "Don't worry, Mother, if the son minister has a favorite, he will definitely marry him to his mother and pay his respects later. But it is very rare for the son minister's favorite person."

The Empress Dowager smiled and said to Xuan Ling: "The Emperor also listen to this. You can choose Qing'er, a lady from the civil and military families in the court. If you can't do it, as long as it is good, it's okay to have a lower lintel."

Xuanqing just smiled and said without saying a word, "My mother, don't worry, maybe there will be someone he likes tomorrow, and it's unknown."

The Queen Mother smiled helplessly: "I hope this is the case, so I have to let him do it."

The empress dowager gradually became tired and returned to the palace first. The concubines seemed to be very respectful to the empress dowager. Seeing that the empress dowager was tired, they immediately accompanied the empress dowager back to the palace. The family banquet was hosted by the empress.

The seats were divided from high to low according to the position of concubines. I was not close to Xuan Ling. I saw him sitting side by side with the queen from afar. The bright yellow brocade robe made him look like a crown and jade, and he had the elegance of a king.

I smiled slightly at him. He obviously saw him, and he also smiled at me. His eyes were as long as they were, and he was endless. In the public, I blushed and looked shy and drank a cup of wine.

When Xuan Ling looked up again, he was already talking to the queen, but when Xuan Qing took advantage of no one's attention, he raised his glass and signaled him to show his heart's heart. He raised his glass in front of him and slapped his head.

During the meal, Xuan Ling looked at me frequently and told Li Chang to personally divide the dishes in front of me, mostly what I like to eat on weekdays. Although I can't speak according to the rules, I am still full of affection and I can't help but feel happy.

After finally ending the family dinner, Xuan Ling naturally stayed in the Queen's Zhaoyang Palace on the Mid-Autumn Festival. The concubines returned to the palace to sleep. Sitting on the sedan chair, the wine just now came up, the cheeks were boiling and the body became soft. He leaned his hands for a while and saw that the moon was in the sky was extremely beautiful. The fifteenth moon was like an ice plate, hanging high on the night sky like a black and blue velvet bottom, bright and bright. The moon was like water, reflected on the jade pendant on the skirt, and it was even more bright and gentle. The foot was originally a pair of fish, and it was like such a full moon night, but I was alone, paired with shadows. I could hear the cold sound of the egrets paddling by the egrets in Taiye Pool, and I felt lonely and cool. The bright moonlight also became a dark water color with floating duckweed leaves floating on Taiye Pool.

After the banquet, I returned to Yingxin Hall. Liu Zhu and Huanbi served me to change into auspicious clothes, took off my makeup, washed the powder on my face clean. I unconsciously touched my face and said, "My face is so hot, I really drank a little more tonight."

Liu Zhu pursed her lips and said, "Everyone is drunk without being drunk. The emperor favors the lady very much during the meal, and even the newly favored An Meiren can't share the newly favored An Meiren."

I angrily said, "Don't talk nonsense."

Huanbi was slightly stunned and smiled as before: "Is that true?"

Liu Zhu said, "You didn't go, of course you didn't see it. Hua Fei was so angry that her eyes were straightened." As she said that, she bent down and giggled, "You must also be angry, so that she can't help but not know the weight of the lady in the emperor's heart, and she is so arrogant every day."

I glared at her and said, "What's Hu Ju! Even if you are in your own palace, you have to be more cautious."

Liu Zhu then calmed down and lowered her eyebrows and replied "Yes".

Huanbi held my dress and gently sucked it, saying, "The Emperor has always treated us ladies very well."

Hearing this, my heart felt a little warm, but it was a little cooler.

After changing his bedding, he heard footsteps outside the door. He thought it was Little Lianzi outside at night, so he said, "It's still too late, go and close the palace gate and rest."

But it was Li Chang's voice, and he said respectfully: "I am disturbing the little master to sleep well, it's a slave."

Seeing that it was him, he couldn't help but Nahn, why did he come to do so late, and said politely: "I haven't fallen asleep yet. What's wrong with my father-in-law so late?"

He said, "The emperor has something that the slave must pass it to the little master. I hope the little master will have a good dream at night."

As he said that, he smiled and handed it to my hand. It was a wooden box made of very exquisite red sandalwood gold-patterned wooden box. There was a seal at the opening of the box, with a large "seal" written on it. There were five small characters written by the imperial pen and written in person: "Give Jieyu Zhen".

Li Chang just stood with a smile and said, "Please give me a look, so that the servant can go back and report."

I was slightly confused. When I opened it, I felt my heart beating very fast. My eyes were slightly hot. I couldn't help myself. In the box, there was a concentric knot with silver silk ribbons. The knots were curved and circled. The buckles and buckles were intertwined in a series of woven firm and full, and it was obviously carefully woven. A small piece of silk paper next to me was written on two lines of regular script: the two silk belts in the waist, and the dream was a concentric knot. These were two lines in the poem "Thinking" by Emperor Wu of Liang. Seeing him writing it in his own hand, I smiled unconsciously and said for a moment: "Please thank the emperor for me."

Li Chang just smiled: "Yes. Congratulations to the little master." As he said that, he retreated with Jinxi and others.

The moonlight was like a thick and intoxicating beauty, and through the ice-patterned window screen, I was like milky white light mist on the ground. I held the knot in my hand and fell asleep peacefully with a smile.

I woke up early and slowly combed my long hair in front of the mirror. I saw that the person in the mirror looked picturesque and his face was slightly haggard, but his eyes were still as bright as stars, like two balls of black mercury. The light of the treasure flowed unsteadily while looking around.

I thought that Xuan Ling had been resting with me for three nights and wanted to go to Lingrong tonight. Since Meizhuang's affairs, I have been at a disadvantage. I thought that Lingrong was favored, but Hua Fei and others did not dare to do anything to me. Now it seems that it is better to rely on others than to rely on yourself. It is time to plan well.

He twisted a lock of hair in his hand and fell into deep thought. Suddenly, he saw a flash of green clothes outside the window behind him. He almost thought he was confused. So he shouted, "Who is sneaking outside?"

But Huanbi turned around and smiled as usual: "The emperor asked the father-in-law in the flower room to send a few pots of newly-opened purple chrysanthemums, "Shuang Feiyan" and "Chun Xiaxiao". I wanted to ask the lady if she wanted to watch it now, but she was afraid of disturbing her."

I actually don’t like chrysanthemums very much. I always think it smells bad, but Meizhuang likes it very much. Last autumn, she was just favored, and I think that Xuan Ling would admire her countless precious chrysanthemums. They bloom like clouds in front and behind the hall. Even the name of the hall where she lives is called "Cunju Hall".

My heart was sad that this year's chrysanthemums were still in full bloom, but Meizhuang's glory and favor disappeared.

The formerly glorious Guanju Hall has become a prison for prisoners today. Meizhuang is confined to the point where only the "Cunju Hall" is left to be the empty hall name, which is sad.
To be continued...
