The Empress was seated at the top, and the concubines led by Yun Shanyue were seated at the bottom. Dance music is very loud, can not hear the words of the emperor and queen. Yun Shanyue heart only play their own small plan, only to retreat a invitation to favor and flatter, and then come to a flowery and beautiful.
Although Yun Qian Yue regarded herself as young beauty does not lose anyone, but now after all nearly twenty years. She stroked her face with her hand, and sighed in her heart: after all, it's the years that make people grow old ah, although she is not old, but how can she compare to the just-maturity.
Although Yun Shanyue is the emperor's pro cousin, uncle and master half of the court, but currently still can not shake the queen fundamental. In the Palace of the position of earning not hand just, do not want to meet the beauty of the strong enemy, so they want to explore Hu Yuanxi's way, smile sweetly and asked: "Sister so heavenly beauty, I do not know where to grow?"
"Huai Lin." Yuan Xi said expressionlessly. She had no intention of answering, she just felt that it was not polite enough for the other party to ask as well as not reply.
"Huai Lin is adjacent to the South County State, so she grew up in Huai Lin where there are mountains and water, no wonder she turned out so well! It's a pity that a good beauty has a scar on her forehead." Yun Shanyue's words are obviously a compliment, in fact, it is a dark irony that this kind of person with a disability should not enter the palace to accompany the driver.
Originally said this will make Hu Yuanxi can not come down, who knows Yuanxi color did not change at all. On the contrary, the emperor spoke out to defend without minding:
"No harm! The palace is full of national doctors, I believe that after their diagnosis and treatment, can be eliminated in a matter of days. Even if it can't be eliminated, I won't put it on my mind."
Yun Guihua heart can not help but tremble, immediately after the first meeting, the emperor but out of words to favor.
While everyone was talking, Yuan Xi slightly raised her eyes and glanced in the direction of the emperor, and the man on the dragon throne who was as gentle as jade was actually the person she saw in the forest that day. No wonder he was called into the palace after losing the election, all the mysteries were solved in an instant.
When Yuan Xi looked at the Emperor, it happened that the Emperor also looked at Yuan Xi here.
The emperor saw Yuan Xi also look to himself could not help but feel happy, face can not hide the smile. Yuan Xi slightly lowered her head, no longer with the emperor, the emperor thought Yuan Xi shy. Yuan Xi's beauty is enough to make the conceited beauty of Yun Shanyue lost color, the emperor coveted this, but if you have been looking at Yuan Xi, in the unavoidable so that all the concubines feel superficial, they also withdrew their gaze.
The Emperor was overjoyed and wanted to have fun with the crowd. then
And look to the consort said: "three years of mourning, the concubines have been adhering to their own, scrupulously important to hold simple, and now there are a number of new people into the palace, I am the promotion of these old people's position."
Harem people are most looking forward to is the promotion, not only the monthly silver will increase, they will also be more respected by the lackeys. This flying good news, so that all the consorts for no reason the heart of a happy.
The emperor saw the crowd's face can not hide the color of joy, suddenly born a sense of the world's only me, continued to say aloud:
"Liu Yi, pass the order down; promote Yun Guihua as Yun Gui Concubine; Sima Guiren as Sima Guihua; Wang Jieyu as Wang Guiren; Cui Chunghua as Cui Jieyu, and Wen Chunghua as Wen Jieyu, and perform a line of promotion ceremony in early March."
The concubines who were promoted all got off their seats, knelt down, smiled joyfully, and kowtowed in thanks, "Many thanks to Your Majesty for your great kindness."
"Well, excuse me, get up, it's getting late, and I'm tired."
The concubines naturally understood the Emperor's feelings and were busy standing up to see the Emperor and Empress duo get up. Only after the Empress and Empress two left did they leave in turn.
Li Chunhua took the hand of servant girl Qian Cherry and slowly walked through the imperial garden towards the Hall of Zhenghe, Li Chunhua asked his beloved Qian Cherry, "Cherry, where do you guess the Emperor will stay this morning?"
Qian cherry looked around, see the imperial garden in addition to the two of her and then others, then bold speculation: "slave girl guess, the emperor will rest in the empress mother there. After all, the Empress Dowager is in the middle of the Palace, although not as favored as Yun Gui Concubine, always have to give some face."
"Hey! When will this palace be able to survive to a position that will make people look the other way!" Li Chonghua's eyes were envious to the extreme, but she didn't know the heights of heaven.
"Chunghua don't be anxious, today only Chunghua a person got the reward, moreover, you enter the palace the emperor named Chunghua, that Wen Jieyu and Cui Jieyu how many years, only to promote to Jieyu, see how the emperor favors you, and you are so young, promote the position of points is sooner or later, there is nothing to be anxious about."
Qian Cherry's compliments made Li Ching Hua quite pleased, and she condescendingly held Qian Cherry's hand and walked towards Zheng He Hall.
The night is already late, and the Hall of Huanzhang is the farthest away from the East Hall of Taiji Hall, so Hu Yuanxi took a soft sedan chair to go back.
When I came, I came from the west, passing by the Hall of Xuan Guang and the Hall of Han Lan, and when I went back, the sedan chair went straight out from the east hall and headed north.
Yuan Xi sat in the sedan chair, a burst of plum fragrance came to his nose, lifted the sedan chair curtains, although the sky is already dark, but under the light of the lantern, especially visible in the imperial garden of the pines and cypresses lush and green.
Yuan Xi couldn't help but look outward and asked Qian Lan, "Is this the Imperial Garden?"
"Yes, Cheng Hua." Qianlan replied in an extremely concise manner as well, not answering more than a single word.
So Yuan Xi then lowered the sedan chair curtain, in the end, the palace is accustomed to carry the sedan chair people, did not have to imagine that bumpy.
In a few moments, the soft sedan chair finally lifted to the front of the Hall of Contents. Yuan Xi a sedan chair only to see Chang Yong and Cui Zheng Zheng waiting outside the door of the temple, only wearing a very thin cotton coat in the door to look. The two eyelashes on the thick layer of frost, cheeks have been red, with cuffs to cover the ears, feet constantly stomping the ground, freezing shivering.
Qianlan is a few years older than them, and is also the palace's power female officer, seeing these two little yellow doors freezing like this, she rebuked with some heartache, "What are you doing waiting here in such a cold day?"
"We're not here to welcome Seung-hwa!" The two said playfully.
"Go to the house to welcome it is good, which use in the doorway freezing." Although the words are reprimanding, but is full of heartache.
With that, several people entered the courtyard, "Cheng Hua is back!" With Chang Yong's yell, all the people came out of the hall to welcome him, Yuan Xi saw Chang Yong and Cui more who were freezing in the entrance of the hall, and saw that the people of this Hall of Containing Zhangs were still waiting for their return so late, he couldn't help but be slightly moved.
The crowd came out and blessed Yuan Xi, Qian Yun and Qian He then followed closely behind Yuan Xi into the hall.
Qian Ning looked at Qian Lan was thrown behind, then came over, attached to Qian Lan's ear to steal quietly asked: "The emperor can say today will come?"
"You still can't change your good faith!" Qian Lan glanced at Qian Ning.
Qian Ning squeezed her eyebrows at Qian Lan and muttered in a low voice, "Which one of us as lackeys doesn't care about our master's honor and favor?"
"Whether or not they are favored which in this moment, shallow eyes." The two then also entered the temple.
Although Yuan Xi did not hear, but Qian Yun and Qian He have heard in the ears. They know that Hu Yuanxi does not want to enter the palace, but since they have entered the palace, they naturally hope that the young lady will be loved by the emperor.
