Zhuo Ye was not a concubine in the harem, and she had the special status of being a reincarnated star. Feng Linrui promised that she would not have to pay her respects to the Queen Mother every day, but Zhuo Ye could not feel relaxed.
On the first day after entering the palace, she couldn't help but meet the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was obviously much more polite to her, and asked her to come to Cihua Palace more often when she had nothing to do. The Queen was also quite warm to her, Zhuo Ye.
She sighed secretly, although she didn't want to deal with the women in the harem, but apart from the false title of a goddess, she was just a commoner. Now that she was in the palace, she dared not show up when summoned by this empress dowager or that empress.
Not successful?
The study time for court etiquette is at Si hour and Wei hour every day, that is, from 9 to 11 o'clock in the morning and from 1 to 3 o'clock in the afternoon. The other times are very free. Feng Linrui sent someone to deliver some books.
Play Go to relieve Zhuo Ye's boredom.
The royal etiquette training is complicated and strict, including sitting, standing, sleeping, speaking, eating... everything must be paid attention to. Fortunately, the nun responsible for teaching Zhuo Ye is afraid of her star status and does not dare to be too harsh and embarrass Zhuo Ye.
It was relatively easy to deal with.
On the afternoon of the second day after entering the palace, after the training, Zhuo Ye took a comfortable hot bath and then leaned on the soft couch to lay out the chess records.
Qiao Ling came over with a plate of tangerines, put it next to the table, and said with a smile: "Girl, eat some tangerines. They are the tangerines that the emperor rewarded as a tribute from Guangsha. They are very sweet."
"You can eat if you like, I don't want to eat yet." Zhuo Ye said to Qiao Ling, lowered his head and continued to play with the chess pieces.
The courtyard where Zhuo Ye lives now is called "Tingfangzhai". Although Feng Linrui arranged for several palace maids and eunuchs to come, Feng Lince was afraid that Zhuo Ye would not be used to being served by strangers, so he ordered Qiao Ling to come to the palace as well.
With someone familiar, Zhuo Ye's suppressed emotions eased slightly.
Before Qiao Ling could speak again, a high-pitched voice suddenly shouted from outside: "The Emperor has arrived!"
After Zhuo Ye and Qiao Ling looked at each other, they quickly stood up and walked towards the door to greet them.
At this time, Feng Linrui had already entered the room. Zhuo Ye, Qiao Ling, several palace maids, and the eunuch knelt on the floor.
"Women meet the Emperor."
"Slave (servant), please see your Majesty."
"Everyone, get up." Feng Linrui walked to the small table where Zhuo Ye laid out the chess records and sat down casually.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhuo Ye, Qiao Ling and others stood up, and Qiao Ling quickly went to serve hot tea.
Feng Linrui looked at Zhuo Ye for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said, "You've learned some decent etiquette."
"The emperor's holy grace has given the people's daughter this opportunity to study. Naturally, the people's daughter will not dare to live up to the emperor's kindness."
Feng Linrui snorted and said, "Okay, you said it nicely, but you don't know how to blame me."
"People's daughters don't dare!" Zhuo Ye said with a low eyebrow.
Feng Linrui saw that the expression on Zhuo Ye's face was calm and indifferent, showing no flaws. He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes. He didn't answer the words just now. He turned around and glanced at the chess records on the short table and said calmly: "Come and sit here.
, come and play a game with me."
Zhuo Ye sat down on the couch, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, do you want a civilian daughter to give up your son?
"Where does all this nonsense come from!" Feng Linrui's handsome face sank and he said angrily.
"The daughter of the people has realized her mistake." Zhuo Ye wished he could slap himself, what a stupid person!
"You all go down!" Feng Linrui looked around and said to the other people in the room.
"Yes." Qiao Ling retreated with the other maids and eunuchs.
"Cough!" Feng Linrui coughed lightly, his handsome face turned slightly red, and he said with some embarrassment: "Let me, Seventh Son!"
"...Yes." Zhuo Ye almost knocked on the table. She was really stupid. She just made Emperor Tianshuo's face difficult in front of those servants...
After the two played chess quietly for a while, Feng Linrui spoke again: "Are you getting used to living in the palace?"
"As for returning to the emperor, civilian girls are quite adaptable." Zhuo Ye said respectfully.
Feng Linrui raised his eyebrows: "Are you still adaptable?"
Zhuo Ye pursed his lips, not knowing how to answer the question.
Feng Linrui didn't ask any more questions, and the two of them played chess in silence.
The game of chess was quickly over, and it was a draw. Feng Linrui looked at the chessboard, then at Zhuo Ye, and asked with a half-smile, "Are you tired?"
"What did the emperor say?" Zhuo Ye pretended to be stupid.
"You don't dare to win against me, but you don't want to lose to me." Feng Linrui said with the corner of his lips curled up.
"..." Zhuo Ye bit her lip and remained silent. In front of this moody emperor, it was better for her to speak as little as possible.
Feng Linrui glanced at the tangerines on the tray and suddenly said: "I want to eat oranges."
"Ah?" Zhuo Ye didn't react for a moment.
Feng Linrui only pointed his eyes at Zhuo Ye.
Zhuo Ye understood. It turned out that he wanted her to peel it for him to eat! Damn it! He didn’t have any hands? He was so used to eating an orange and having someone else serve him!
Although Zhuo Ye was dissatisfied, he did not dare to show it. He reached for a tangerine, peeled off half of the skin, and handed it to Feng Linrui: "Your Majesty, please use it."
Zhuo Ye's hand was slender and delicate, with a bright white luster. It was very beautiful. Feng Linrui looked at her hand. After being lost for a moment, he took the tangerine, tore off a piece and put it in his mouth slowly.
Chewing: "Well, this year's honey oranges are extra sweet. You should try them too."
Zhuo Ye had no choice but to peel another orange and ate a piece of it, but couldn't taste the taste...
Feng Linrui finished eating the oranges and said to Zhuo Ye, "Bring me the handkerchief."
Zhuo Ye didn't think much and handed over his handkerchief.
Feng Linrui lowered his head and glanced at the word "ye" embroidered on the corner of the handkerchief, frowned and said, "My embroidery work is too bad, practice hard!" After that, he wiped his mouth naturally and put it aside.
"..." Zhuo Ye was silent. She had nothing to do, so she learned needlework from Qiao Ling and embroidered for fun.
"Can you play that 'Xianguqin'?" It's an affirmative sentence, not a question.
At Feng Linrui's birthday banquet, the Queen Mother also asked Zhuo Ye this question. He could see Zhuo Ye's hesitation at that time.
Zhuo Ye twitched the corner of his mouth and said helplessly: "I know a little bit."
"Xiaodouzi!" Feng Linrui raised his voice slightly and shouted outside the door.
Soon, the smart and comely little eunuch who often followed Feng Linrui came in: "I'm here, my servant. What are your orders from the emperor?"
"Go get the 'Rapu Immortal Qin'." Feng Linrui ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiaodouzi agreed and went out, and soon came back holding the violin box.
Looking at Xiaodouzi's speed, Zhuo Ye knew that Feng Linrui had already ordered someone to bring this piano!
"Look at this piano, it can still be played." Feng Linrui motioned to Zhuo Ye to take the piano.
Zhuo Ye sighed secretly, took the piano case, opened it and checked it out. As she expected, the strings were broken, so she replied: "Your Majesty, this piano is quite old and the strings are damaged..."
"
Feng Linrui nodded: "Do you know how the strings are made?"
"I……"
Before Zhuo Ye finished speaking, Feng Linrui said again: "Tomorrow I will ask the violin maker to come over. You can tell the violin maker how to make the strings. Today, I will go back first." After that, he stood up and walked out.
"Your Majesty." Zhuo Ye wanted to scratch the wall in frustration...
