In the blink of an eye, winter is here, and the weather is getting colder day by day, and it seems to be colder than previous winters.
After Shangguan Lafang’s coming-of-age ceremony, the second month is Shangguanchen’s coming-of-age ceremony.
This world stipulates that when a prince comes of age, the emperor will give him a mansion not far from the palace. From then on, the prince will move out of the palace and live in that mansion. From now on, he will only enter the palace to pay his respects.
Therefore, after Shangguan Chen's adult ceremony, he lived in his own mansion, and the number of visits to the palace to pay respects gradually decreased, from about ten times a month at the beginning to once a month in the end, and sometimes even once every two months.
At the end of the year, Shangguan Lafang and his wife went to Qi State. Even Shen Man, the eldest princess who used to come to the palace frequently to pay her respects, stopped going to the palace often two months before she was due to give birth.
Maybe this is why Shangguan Feng'er felt that this winter was particularly cold, a lonely cold.
Speaking of the eldest princess Shen Man, Shangguan Feng'er didn't like Shangguan Lafang, didn't like the queen, and didn't know much about Shangguan Jue.
In her impression, Shangguan Jue was taciturn and withdrawn, and did not like to get close to other people, even when facing the Queen, Shangguan Lafang was the same.
Therefore, in Shangguan Feng'er's memory, Shangguan Jue is like a black ice cube, dark and cold, making people unable to see through it, but unwilling to get close to it.
However, after marrying Shen Man, Shangguan Feng'er saw Shangguan Jue more times than when he lived in the palace before he was underage. His whole temperament was completely different, and his face could also see a look that was rarely seen before. The smile you see at first sight is a happy smile that comes from the heart.
Shangguan Feng'er seemed to see a piece of black ice slowly becoming transparent, and she was looking forward to the final melting of the black ice.
Shangguan Feng'er didn't know much about what kind of person Shen Man was, but she always smiled warmly at her every time she saw her. With just such a smile, Shangguan Feng'er believed that she was a warm woman, and only warm. Only a woman can melt black ice, right?
In fact, Shen Man is a beautiful, gentle, virtuous, and kind-hearted woman. Whenever she talks about her children, she always likes to stroke her belly with her hands, and her eyes are full of happiness.
Shangguan Feng'er often thinks that Shangguan Jue is able to marry such a woman, which is a blessing earned through several lifetimes. She hopes that Shangguan Jue can be good to her throughout her life.
Dividing line------
Winters in Yan State are mostly cloudy.
Shangguan Feng'er never liked cloudy days, and it had been cloudy for more than ten days in a row, so she stayed in the Yilan Palace and never left the palace. She was a complete homebody.
It happened to be a sunny day today, so Shangguan Feng'er took Yuan'er to the garden behind the palace to bask in the sunshine and drive away the bad luck.
"I heard that the queen wants the eldest prince to take another concubine." A deliberately low voice came from behind the rockery in the garden.
"It seems to be Gao Wenqiang, the daughter of Gao Shangshu." Another voice came.
"Is he the one who danced the swan dance at the princess' coming-of-age ceremony last time?" a third voice asked.
"If this is the case, the life of the eldest princess will not be so easy in the future." After speaking in a deliberately low voice, she sighed.
Shangguan Feng'er couldn't attend Shangguan Lafang's coming-of-age ceremony, so she didn't know about the so-called Gao Wenqiang. It's just that this swan dance was adapted by Shangguan Feng'er based on the modern swan dance, and she taught Liu Shi the dance, and Liu Shishi later taught the dance in Honglou. girls dance.
She didn't know that Gao Wenqiang would learn to dance. She thought that the influence of the Red House was getting bigger and bigger. I remember that Zixuan wrote a letter a few days ago saying that the total income of the Red House since its opening in August was three million taels. Shangguan Feng'er originally I didn’t believe it yet, but now it seems I have to believe it.
