Yun Fenghuang was shocked. When she was about to put down the curtain as if nothing had happened, her wrist was held by someone. That was Emperor Chunjia, who leaned towards her and opened the curtain a bit more. He looked outside. It happened that Qi Jiulu dismounted from a horse and glanced at the carriage as if he was involuntary. He just caught the sight of the emperor.
He quickly bowed to the emperor.
Yun Fenghuang noticed that the knuckles of Qi Jiulu’s hand, which held the whip, were white with exertion. Obviously, he was not as calm as what he showed.
But Emperor Chunjia was calm. He looked around imperturbably, and then closed the curtain. Looking at Yun Fenghuang who was held in his arms, he said, “There is nothing beautiful outside. Why did you open the curtain all the time? You may be tanned.”
“Your Majesty, don’t frighten me. The county government is so stuffy, so I take a fresh breath on the road.” Yun Fenghuang calme
Yun Fenghuang and the Emperor had been fishing for a long while, and each had their own gains, just different in size and number. Therefore, it couldn’t easily tell who was the winner.The Emperor smiled and asked, “What if the game ends in a tie?”“Your Majesty, you are a dignified emperor. You won’t compete with a weak lady, right?” Yun Fenghuang gave the Emperor a quick glance and said coquettishly, “If there is a tie, of course the game is mine.”The Emperor asked patiently, “Then what do you want for the prize?”Yun Fenghuang smiled, “It’s still not the end of the game. I’ll think it over after I win the game.”Fishing was just an excuse. In addition, she couldn’t think about anything she wanted now from the Emperor. After all, as a consort, she didn’t lack food or clothing. As for what she really wanted, she didn’t think the Emperor could give her.“Well, maybe I’ll just ask anything from the Emperor
In the evening, the lights in the yard gradually went out. Only a lantern hung in the porch, shining the entire courtyard dimly yellow.The shadows of the trees were whirling in the breeze, accompanied by the sound of insects and frogs, and the smell of lotus perfume, which was really a special scene.Yun Fenghuang specially ordered Xi Le to be on duty tonight and sent the others away. She felt that it was too stuffy after the doors and windows were closed, so she opened the rear window. As she was about to sleep behind the screen, some fern leaves rustled outside the rear window, and then she heard a slight sound of something falling.She opened her eyes subconsciously and saw the figure flashing. Qi Jiulu, wearing a black robe, walked in and pulled off the veil.Seeing Yun Fenghuang was not asleep yet, and there was no surprise when she saw him, so he showed a knowing smile. He hugged her, kissed her, and asked her with a low gig
Yun Fenghuang was shocked. She thought that there might be something wrong, but Qi Jiulu only took out a bluish white silk bag from his sleeve and shoved it to her shyly, “I caught the fireflies for you before I came here, but I forgot it when I saw you. They were covered a night. I’m afraid that they are not bright.”There was someone getting up and walking outside. Qi Jiulu couldn’t stay, so he hurried away.Yun Fenghuang stared at the fireflies blankly. Fireflies loved warm places, so they were intolerant of the bitter cold in the north. She didn’t know it when she was a child. When she studied with her tutor and learned a poem called “Ode to Firefly”, she was curious about the sentence “If you fly to the sky on high, you’ll be viewed as a moon-side star”. She perversely asked others to catch the fireflies to her. She wanted to see the scene of “The rain cannot smother your fire; Swept by wind, the brighter you are”.Later, Yun Fenghuang lea
Jiamu Zi walked through the door with a sullen face.She did not want to come, however, around the quiet advice, said to inquire about the emperor last night, although the honor is Yi Xingen, this morning but still come over to accompany the cloud wind Huang with a breakfast before going to the front, visible to this Jieyu not detained sincerely false, in the end there are a few points of importance, perhaps the cloud wind Huang heard something, which is to find her over to discuss it?After all, everyone knows that Yun Feng Huang's backer is the Queen, Yuan Kukai is just, Ji Minggan is the Queen's sibling brother, Yun Feng Huang if he dares to his things do not care, back to how to explain to the Queen?Because of this, Ji Mu Zi came to be here, but cold, a board after saluting, raised his chin and asked, "Jieyu invited, what is the matter?""Who just went to call Ji concubine?" Yun Feng Huang heard this, did not interface, but instead asked the people under
Xijing half curious and half apprehensive into the inner room when the county Yamen front hall, Yan Yin is a report of the scene in the small courtyard, "... moments ago Ji concubine left in a hurry, heel foot to let the heart of the courtesan borrowed to the garden to fold flowers, to a guards stuffed things, the bottom people are far away from did not look at it clearly, only feel like a token.""After spending some time in the house alone with the palace maid Xiluo, Mao Jieyu sent Xiluo to the kitchenette to watch the fire, but called the palace maid Xijing to follow her, and at this moment is about to speak."Emperor Chunjia smiled, "Let them make a scene."Yan Yin hesitantly said, "But Mao Jieyu ..."Ji concubine there he is not very worried, after all, this is into the palace for a number of years of the old man, what temperament what means in the Ji what position under the hand about how many people can be used ... Emperor immersed in the palace exams
"Mao Jieyu's greatest disadvantage is that her father's clan is not prominent." County Yamen front hall, Chunjia Emperor gently shake the tea bowl, so neatly appreciate the light green color of the tea soup, mouth slowly said, "So even if she stepped on Ji's daughter to ascend to the consort position, still lack of successor power. This point she herself is also clear, these days action frequently, must be trying to solve this problem ... this is also the reason why I must speed up!"At this moment Yan Yin is not in the hall, because of the noise of cicadas more and more quiet in the room, only green shirt bamboo crown Deng Chengzhai sitting at the head of the lower, a separate audience."After all, just a woman ..." Deng Chengzai wanted to speak again and again for a while, in the end said, "even if we let her become a climate, the palace around there are still high vacancies, it is not difficult to arrange. His Majesty specifically for her to launch plans in advance ..
"Looking at the Palace to do what?" Yun Feng Huang saw the situation lightly hummed, let the others are backed down, only then cold face to open, "Fang how, you do not all see?"Xijing and Xile looked at each other, the look is bitter, and hastened to squeeze out a few laughs, currying favor, "Mother, the maidservants are stupid ... His Majesty he ... His Majesty Fang, Fang but with the same as before, this ..."This they really don't see the Sacred Heart!"Since the same, this is not the end?" Yun Feng Huang picked up the fan to flutter, said faintly, "If His Majesty is tired of this palace, you guys think that at this moment, he still needs to make false pretenses with this palace?"It sounds reasonable, but Xijing Xile always felt that something was wrong, once again looking at each other, Xijing dryly laughed and said, "Your Highness said yes."That being said, the two men were as rooted to their feet and refused to move away.Yun Feng Huang l
The rain didn't stop until nightfall, but rather had the intention of getting heavier and heavier.Yun Feng Huang around the arrangement of Ji Mu Zi to the emperor to serve the bed, then in the palm of the lamp on the people closed the doors and windows, ready for the night to think about today's situation.As a result of the evening meal before long, the courtyard door was knocked, and immediately Chen Zhu hurriedly came to report that the emperor had come."His Majesty tonight is not to go to Ji concubine there?" Yun Feng Huang slightly surprised, get up to meet, only to walk to the corridor, Chunjia has met, he was wearing a light green bottom crepe dark pattern of the regular clothes, the county government office in the end narrow, although the back of the geese cited the umbrella is collected very wide, flying corners of the clothes are still stained with some rain, in the night blotting out the almost blood stains of the color to.Hastily glanced, actua
The first day of the newcomer's entry into the palace, Chunjia rested in the Raccoon Flower Hall, which is dedicated to the true beauty of the face.From the next day onwards, it was time to honor the newcomers one by one.Otherwise there is a suspicion of neglecting the families behind the newcomers.This day Chunjia did not intend to come to the splendor of the Palace, but the cloud wind Huang halfway to send food, ran into him casually counting Yin Qu, so come over to sit for a few moments to inform the cause, to go to the palace to spend the night anyway, the two palaces away from the close, separated by a Yijia Palace.However, such a sit on the meal time, looking at the son of heaven accompanied the real princess with the dinner, holding the tea slowly and methodically sipping, but also did not have the slightest intention to get up, left and right can not help but be a little uneasy, are to take the corner of the eye to aim at the goose guide, hope th
Yun Feng Huang was slightly stunned when he received the news that the second consort was seeking an audience, and then frowned.At this time, Xie Mang happened to be playing in front of her, saw the situation and ran over with a halfunraveled ninelink ring and asked curiously, "Auntie, this second consort's family history is excellent, quite popular with the royal courtesy, and now taking the initiative to be soft, is it not good?""What do you children care about these?" Yun Feng Huang smiled and touched her head, mouth angry at this niece nosy, but still for her to explain, "five consorts into the palace is the trend, can not be blocked. But they are raging, in aunt's position of power are very unfavorable. In order to avoid the people underneath the low worship high, listening to their family history, looking at the favoritism of the Empress Dowager Mother of Mercy on the reversal of the past, aunt this is in their first day in the palace to give color ....""S
Smoky Orchid Palace Xin Li Hall, although there has been no major construction, in the Xuan Fei a cadre of daughtersinlaw under the command of some pick up, but has been very different from the consort at the time.Not only in the temple furnishings style is very different, even with the flowers and plants in the court, also has pruning material.Even people who are familiar with the place may not recognize it at first sight.Spare a thought, Xuanfei's nursemaid Yin still has some regrets, "Your Highness first came to the palace right, if it is on the big move, not too frivolous ... Otherwise, the steps of the few clumps of flowers and trees, should also be replaced.""Almost done." Xuanfei Luo Hanyi hand on the railing, a little bit of survey of their own land, do not care to say, "His Majesty does not like Zheng, do not ask him to come here to think of the old man, swept away the interest on the good. The other, the day will come, slowly tidy up, but there
"I've been coming over at this hour for the past two days, what's there to do and what's not to do?" Chun Jia first leaned over and touched the top of Xie Mang's hair, smiled and told her to flatten herself, and replied, "Do you want to drive me away?"Yun Feng Huang smiled and said, "Your Majesty thought to where? Not today's new sisters into the palace, concubine thought you have to go to see them first?"As he spoke, Qing Xu and the others had already come up, taking Xie Mang's hand and leading her down.The Imperial Consort and the two of them walked inward as they spoke and took their seats in the hall."When is there a rule in the palace that when a concubine first enters, I must rest over?" Chunjia snorted, took the tea handed up by the courtesan sip, lazy, "people are eager to come to me, you're good, a little bit of a breeze, I haven't said anything, can't wait to close the door of the splendor of the Palace of the Qing Dynasty, will be shut out of m
Spring in March in the palace city is still craggy, but the branches have blossomed a bit of yellow and green buds, brushing through the temples of the wind also metamorphosed to the harsh, more or less show some tenderness, the whole palace inside and outside, a spring is full of flavor.Sweet white glaze lowpainted magpies in a tea cup of green and blue slightly rippling, repeatedly stained with phoenix flower juice of the fingertips brightly colored, more and more show that the catkin holding the tea cup is slender and white, race of snow frost Empress Yuan took the bowl of tea, surveyed in front of the face of the playful posture and dignified, from head to toe is not her familiar and respected the style of the new consort of the great lady, showing a satisfied smile.While she spoke to encourage the effort, the next Wei Heng Yan raised his sleeve to cover his mouth, whispered for the introduction of cloud wind Huang, "... This is Luo's daughter, the maiden name of
"This matter is troublesome." The next day, at the Duke of Yiguo's residence, the Duke of Yiguo, who had received the news, frowned slightly and said to his wife, "Before, Zhao was raised by the Empress, and now that Ji is in decline and disliked by His Majesty, the Empress, no matter how reluctant she may be in her heart, does not dare to slow down the heir who is credited to my son's name; however, now that the person has come into the hands of True Concubine, it is not easy to say."Han twisted her handkerchief uneasily, "But since the person who proposed to put an heir under my son's name was Concubine Zhen, she wouldn't have intentionally caused Zhao's miscarriage? Besides, my son is no longer alive, so even if she doesn't want to offend us, she won't treat Zhao's heir badly?"Wing Guo Gong said, "True consort indeed will not do so ... just this hand of the Queen, but it is like borrowing the hand of true consort, will drag us into the water ah! The next harem fight
At Jun Jia's request, Empress Qu's birthday passed in waves.In the end, Yun Feng Huang feel overly upset, privately sent a subcongratulatory gift to the Jia Shan Palace, than last year's birthday of Queen Yuan's congratulatory gift slightly cut down the kind of."The mourning family is actually not lacking in these." After all, she is the empress dowager, or Chunjia's birth mother, despite Chunjia's own request not to give her the same treatment as Empress Dowager Yuan, on this day, the consorts still have to come to Jiashan Palace to ask for peace and congratulations.But the curve of the Empress Dowager to maintain the usual silence and cold, will be sent away, only stayed in the cloud wind Huang meal, the reason is, "I'm afraid that you are not used to the meals here, so that the real consort on behalf of you to stay with the grieving family well, your heart grieving family know, are good children."Waiting for people are gone, but sighed and said to Yun
On the first day of the first month, the Son of Heaven, complete with crown, up the great dynasty, by the hundred officials to pay homage.Afterwards, the kings and ministers each pay homage to their ancestors.Returning to the harem after noon, he went to the Spring Lazy Palace, and met with Empress Dowager Yuan, while Empress Qu and a cadre of princesses and county princesses and consorts had gathered here for a long time to wait, and together they paid their respects to the Son of Heaven on his new jubilee.Chunjia just returned from the temple, still wearing a grand robe, looking not like the elegant and gentle, majestic and solemn.Sitting on the side of the two empress dowagers, his eyes swept over the three kneeling nine kowtowed internal order women, saw the head but still holding the sick Empress Ji, slightly frowned.After exempting himself from the salute, he said mildly, "the first month of the first day of the month exactly auspicious, the
"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood! Concubine is just afraid that Mang'er is worried, that's why I casually put her off." Yun Feng Huang painfully thought to himself afterward, "This is not afraid of revealing the stuffing, so that's why you have to send her away in a hurry?"Junjia grunted, "Cunning!""Concubine innocent ah!" Yun Feng Huang swore, "Concubine to have that ability to figure out the holy will, will still this long time can not see you?""Who knows if you are capable of figuring out the holy will, but impatient to do so?" Junjia glanced at her and said quietly.Yun Feng Huang jawdroppingly said, "The world is so stupid?"She said this so swiftly and justifiably that Chunjia was all but laughed at, saying, "Not stupidly!""That concubine here is certainly not such a person." Yun Feng Huang seriously said, "Concubine was praised for being smart and resourceful when I was a child, and his majesty also said the same about his concubin
