Chapter 97

Green tiles, red walls, heavy curtains, the magnificent palace looks bright, but I don't know how many bones are buried.

Simeng hall is located in the southeast corner of the imperial palace. It has a quiet environment and is adjacent to a large area of peony garden. It was specially sent by the emperor from Luoyang. It was carefully planted here by craftsmen. Every time the Peony Blossom Season, the peony garden is the most beautiful.

Living here is one of the four imperial concubines, Chen Guifei, the mother of the eighth prince.

When the emperor first ascended the throne, his foundation was not stable. Chen Guifei's father took military power and sent her to the palace to show his support for the emperor. For the emperor, the stability of the throne was guaranteed. The Chen family had a certain kindness with him, and the princess Chen was gentle, graceful, beautiful and talented. She never quarreled with all the beauties. The emperor loved her unconquerable temperament and protected her intentionally or unintentionally. Later, the princess Chen gave birth to the eighth Prince Xuanli, and her mother leaped to the top of the four concubines.

The empress gave birth to the prince, the virtuous one gave birth to the fourth prince, the virtuous one gave birth to the fifth prince, and the Shufei gave birth to Princess Yi.

As the courtiers all know, the eighth Prince Xuanli is intelligent and gentle, the fifth Prince Xuanhua is loyal and brave, the fourth Prince xuanlang is mediocre, and Princess Heyi is pretty and beautiful. The crown prince is mediocre and incompetent, and can't be used to a great extent. The fourth Prince xuanlang is kind but has no intention. Now the wind in the middle is inclined to Xuanli and Xuanhua. The emperor has always been very good to Princess Chen. Although Xuanhua is also very powerful, her mother, Princess De, is not as popular as Princess Chen.

The imperial court is full of ups and downs, but the temple of dreams is warm and prosperous. It seems that this place is far away from intrigue and jealousy. There are just a lot of time to have a peaceful dream of missing the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

In the room, the white jade flat is covered with thick Persian wool blanket, slender white plush, and inlaid with bright gems. The four maids in thin white shirts are all pretty, standing quietly in the same place with their heads down. The light wind outside blows slightly and raises a corner of the curtain, just like the fairies on the nine heaven palace.

The woman on the seat is seriously making a complexation. Qianqian's hands are not coated with a little bit of cardan. Her fingernails give off a light pink luster. Qianqian's fingers fly up and down flexibly. Different from other women in the palace, this woman did not have the slightest air of supremacy. She bit off a piece of silk thread, showing a white and pretty face. Her facial features are beautiful, without the slightest aggressiveness, with a kind of water like tenderness. It seems that she is not an unattainable imperial concubine in the palace, but a young girl in a family's waiting room in the corner of the south of the Yangtze River. She is clear, sweet, gentle and graceful.

Jiang Su Su has been born incomparably pure and beautiful, but there is a bit of deliberate element. This woman is not exactly, even in the nine palace, there is also a kind of out of place gentle and graceful. It's as soft as water carved into the bone.

Her lips gently smile, if someone passes by at the moment, I will think that the scene in front of me is the same as the name of the hall, just a romantic dream.

When the curtain was lifted heavily, a figure came in and said with a smile, "mother concubine."

Chen Guifei put down the hand of the son, looking at the person, suddenly a smile: "how also don't let a person report."

Xuanli looks at the woman close at hand. Her restless heart calms down slowly. Princess Chen has a special magic, as if the world is more complex things to her hands, like this dense silk thread in general, always easy to clear, into a colorful complex.

Xuanli said, "do you know what happened to the prime minister's house, mother concubine?"

Chen Guifei looked slightly and said, "I know."

The palace is so big that so many people go in and out of the palace every day. Even things they don't want to know will come into her ears. Chen Guifei knew about the prime minister's office, but she was not worried about Xuanli, and Xuanli was not depressed. He said, "I want to ask my mother to do me a favor."

"What's up?" Princess Chen gave a smile.

"I beg my mother and imperial concubine to persuade my father to marry me and Miss Jiang." Open your mouth.

Chen Guifei was gentle and calm. She was stunned when she heard him and frowned: "what?"

"My father has already begun to doubt my son's ministers about the affairs of the prime minister's house." Xuanli said, "but my mother can't help me with this."

Now Princess Chen is in favor in the palace. Apart from the gentleness and gentleness of Lord Chen and Princess Chen, more importantly, she is smarter than the other three concubines. She is always gentle and considerate. She does not discuss the affairs of the imperial court or influence the emperor's decision. When the emperor comes to Simeng hall, he will always have a wonderful dream. The emperor was interested in her unyielding temperament. If she pretended to plead for Xuanli or expressed a little bit of this kind of meaning, since ancient times, the monarch was suspicious, and she would never be favored as she used to be.

Chen Guifei knew this, Xuanli also knew this, so he would not easily ask Chen Guifei for help. He knew that even if the emperor doubted him, as long as Chen Guifei's favor continued, the emperor would not really give up on him.

"There is a connection between Jiang's house and Xia's house. When the prime minister's house has an accident and the wind changes in the middle of the court, the children's ministers have to consolidate their own power and show the relationship with Xia's house to the public. If you do it rashly, your father will suspect that Miss Jiang is not allowed to be spoiled in Jiang's family. In her name, you can let your father relax his vigilance, but you won't lose all contact with Xia's house. "Chen Guifei quietly looked at Xuanli: "Your Highness, you didn't tell the truth to our palace."

Xuanli's eyes stagnated, and he knew that the mother Princess was smart. Otherwise, in the cannibal harem, how could the position of the head of the four concubines be so stable? The emperor knew that she must not have no intention, but she was still willing to favor her. This is her grasp of the people's heart.

In fact, on the road of his seizing the throne, imperial concubine Chen gave him a lot of advice, and even the seven and nine princes who had disappeared quietly in the palace were inseparable from imperial concubine Chen.

But so what? Now those people have already become a handful of peony flowers, but Chen Guifei's chair is more stable.

He thought about it: "Miss Jiang is not an ordinary person. The sudden collapse of the prime minister's office has a lot to do with her. Ang Lee once reminded me that Jiang Ruan is very intelligent and can be used for help. My son thought, since she has the talent of heaven, maybe she can use it. "

"The talent of heaven?" Chen Guifei shook her head: "Ang Lee is perverse. He doesn't know that there are people outside the world. It's no surprise that he is planted in other people's hands. Our palace has known for a long time that there will be such a day. But it's amazing that he fell into the hands of a woman. "

Xuanli said: "exactly, so the minister thought that if he could get married, he would take the woman for his own use."

Princess Chen laughed: "Your Highness is still young now, and relies too much on Ang Lee, so he believes his words. However, our palace thinks that the woman has the talent of heaven, which is exaggeration. However, since your highness said that, in his eyes, that woman is different from ordinary women. Your highness and our palace are mother and son. In a few days, our palace will bring this up in person. Our palace will only give her one year. If she can't show her talent, she won't be worthy of the name of your Highness's fiancee. Her fiancee can be changed. Then Miss Jiang may die. What do you think of Her Highness? "

She talked lightly about the matter of seeking people's lives, but her eyes were as gentle as lotus, as gentle as a fairy with a good heart. Xuanli thought for a long time, then raised his head. A trace of ruthlessness flashed across his face, which was very similar to that of Princess Chen. He said: "well, if it can't be used for me, it must be removed. The province will become a serious trouble in the future."

Chen Guifei satisfied smile: "Your Highness is wise."

She picked up a basket of a few dozen good complexes: "yesterday, the Japanese palace made a few new complexes, and you see fit."

……

On the day before the Palace Banquet, Mrs. Jiang specially ordered Ruyi Lou to send her new clothes. All the clothes were made of Miss Jiang's own materials. When Liu Ruyi sent them over, she looked at Jiang Ruan with regret and said, "Miss Jiang's skin is white. The fire cloud Satin made the clothes the day before yesterday is actually excellent. Although this peach pink is better, it's not as red as that one It's very bright. "

In Liu Ruyi's opinion, Jiang Ruan is actually very suitable for scarlet clothes. Her appearance is bright and gorgeous, and her scarlet clothes are even more charming. She has a certain temperament and calmness. When she wears the fiery color, it is as cool as ice. Fire and ice are two extremes, but they fit in her very well. Her beautiful color is matchless, and her eyes don't turn.

Jiang Ruan himself knew this well. Most of his clothes were red. This time I went to the Palace Banquet, but for the first time I chose a pink peach. Although Liu Ruyi gently hints, Jiang Ruan's mind is determined, but in desperation, Liu Ruyi has to do the same with her.

"Thank you for your kindness." Jiang Ruan smile: "however, I still prefer this one."

Although he didn't understand why Jiang Ruan insisted, Liu Ruyi came down several times and also understood that this Miss Jiang family was a person with great ideas. There must be some reasons at the moment, but he didn't talk to her. Thinking about it, she said with a smile: "the eldest lady is matchless in beauty. She looks good in everything she wears. She's a slave. It's just that the other ladies in the mansion attached great importance to the banquet, and their clothes were complicated and changed several times. "

She gently reminded, Jiang Ruan smile: "Palace Banquet is very important, sisters don't want to lose the face of Jiang Fu, it should be so."

Where is the palace banquet? If it wasn't for the flood in Dajin Dynasty this year, maybe these government daughters would not have such a chance in their whole life. Not only that, there are naturally young gentlemen of noble families at the Palace Banquet. Everyone wants to make a good impression. If they can make a marriage in the future, it will be a good thing. Therefore, the Palace Banquet is more important than life for the officials, especially the concubines.

After Liu Ruyi had sent her clothes, she got up and left. Jiang Ruan ordered dewdrop to go out to see her off, but he didn't want Jiang Xinzhi to go into the yard again. When he saw her, he said, "ah Ruan, are you ready for the Palace Banquet tomorrow?" Seeing the new clothes on one side, he said: "since he has made new clothes, tomorrow a Ruan will surely surprise four people."

In the eyes of Jiang Xin, Jiang Ruan must be excellent, beautiful and gentle, sensible and strong. He didn't know anything about red clothes and pink clothes, but he thought that Jiang Ruan looked good in everything.

Jiang Ruan was too lazy to pay attention to his nonsense. He did not want Jiang Xinzhi to sit down in front of her again. He said seriously, "the palace is no better than your family. You have to obey the rules. People in Jiang's family have never taught you the etiquette of entering the palace. They have not even sent anyone to remind you now. They must want you to make a fool of yourself in front of everyone tomorrow. You must remember...""Elder brother," without waiting for Jiang Xinzhi to finish, Jiang Ruan interrupted him: "what's wrong with me when elder brother comes back

Jiang Xin one Leng, shakes his head way: "does not have." This is a fact. Since he returned to Beijing, he felt that Jiang Ruan had grown up a lot, and even his temperament was very different from that of the past. In recent days, he walked around with Guan Lianghan and met many ladies of high-ranking officials and nobles. But he felt that these people were not as good as Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan is still young. Jiang Quan has left her in Chuang Tzu for five years. Unexpectedly, she is not only not cultivated as a village woman, but also as a lady in the palace, even as a princess.

Jiang Ruan said with a smile: "since there is nothing wrong with it, why worry about it. I can deal with Jiang's house, so I can deal with the palace. There is no difference between the palace and Chiang's, but the conditions are more harsh. "

Jiang Xinzhi frowned: "but you haven't been to the palace after all..."

"Elder brother," Jiang Ruan interrupted him, "I know the ranks of all kinds of maids in the palace, the rewards of eunuchs, what kind of rites I should give when I meet a noble man, and which side hall I can't enter." She said faintly, "how much do you know? When you enter the palace, do you know who is the most trusted father-in-law around the emperor? Which of the most humble eunuchs around my father-in-law is his son?

Two of the four maids around the Empress Dowager are skilled in martial arts? Which beauty has the most fierce temper, and it's better to avoid doing nothing? "

What she said was slow and firm, but Jiang Xinzhi was thrilled to hear it. He felt absurd and incredible, but he never doubted Jiang Ruan's words. Jiang Ruan's tone seemed to be familiar with the secrets of these palaces, even like It's common to see it with your own eyes. Naturally, Jiang Ruan could not have witnessed it with his own eyes, but how did a lady in her boudoir know the most private things in the palace? It's a great event to take out everything here. With a strange feeling in his heart, he looked at Jiang Ruan and said, "Ruan, how do you know this?"

"What does big brother think?" Jiang Ruan looked at him and asked.

One of Jiang Xin's chokes made him think of Xiao Shao. The relationship between Xiao Shao and Jiang Ruan was not ordinary. Xiao Shao was deeply trusted by the emperor, who was powerful and could almost walk horizontally in the palace. If Xiao Shao told Jiang Ruan this On the one hand, he was glad that Xiao Shao trusted Jiang Ruan so much. On the other hand, he was a little annoyed. Jiang Ruan had nothing to do with those things in the palace. Why did Xiao Shao talk about these things without any reason? Jiang Xinzhi only wanted Jiang Ruan to live happily and simply without knowing the human suffering. The more Xiao Shao talked to Jiang Ruan, the more complicated his life became.

He looked at Jiang Ruan cautiously and said, "ah Ruan, don't mention these things to others."

Jiang Ruan said with a smile: "naturally, I won't mention it to others. I just want to tell my elder brother that I'm no stranger to things in the palace. Elder brother, don't worry about me. On the contrary, it's inevitable that someone will trip me in the Palace this time. Elder brother, be careful and don't be impulsive. "

Jiang Xinzhi nodded: "I understand." Suddenly thinking of something, Jiang Xinzhi took out a thing from his arms: "it hasn't been given to you before, but now it's returned to its original owner."

In Jiang Xinzhi's hand, there is a half moon amber lying quietly. The amber is bright and moist, and half of the butterfly wings inside are lifelike. Last time in Wulin Road, those people tried to lure Jiang Xinzhi into a trap with the amber. Jiang Xinzhi took the amber away and never gave it back to Jiang Ruan.

Jiang Ruan said: "five years ago, before I entered Chuang Tzu, the amber disappeared. I don't want to keep it until now." She was cold in her heart. The amber was lost five years ago, but it only reappeared when Jiang Xinzhi came back. Did Xia Yan use her to kill Jiang Xinzhi as early as five years ago? It's a good calculation.

Jiang Xinzhi handed amber to her: "those who secretly use the scheme, I will not forgive lightly."

Jiang Ruan looked at him and shook his head: "don't act rashly."

One of Jiang Xin raised his eyes, but his eyes fell on Jiang Ruan's wrist. He said strangely, "when did you have this bracelet?"

Jiang Xinzhi didn't know that it was a blood moon bracelet, but it didn't look like it was made of ordinary material. It gave off a faint light, so he knew it was a rare treasure. He didn't see Jiang Ruan in Zhao Mei's house. He couldn't have been sent by Jiang's family. He was suspicious for a moment.

Jiang ruanshun looked at him, pulled his sleeve down, covered the bracelet, and said, "a gift from a friend."

Jiang Xinzhi wanted to ask, but Jiang Ruan turned the topic aside.

After Jiang Xinzhi left, dew sent Liu Ruyi back. Both forsythia and Angelica dahurica are nervous about the Palace Banquet tomorrow. They choose jewelry in the box in the dresser early. Forsythia picks a golden silk cat's eye. Angelica dahurica shakes her head and says, "look, it's frivolous. Tomorrow, the palace is full of noble people. It's better to be solemn." After that, a jade flower jumped out of the box: "how about this one?"

But Forsythia waved her hand again and said, "no, this one is too quiet. It doesn't match the girl's clothes. It's not nice to wear like this."

Jiang Ruan put down the book in his hand and said, "don't pick it. Tomorrow I'll comb a single bun and shake it with the rose."

Jiang Ruan was not very interested in dressing up. He was always tossing about with two servant girls, but this time he was so clear. "It's too easy for a girl to wear this," said the dew"I have my reason." Jiang Ruan said, "that's it."

Forsythia and Angelica look at each other, are not clear, so, but did not ask, dew spit tongue, busy to help clean up the box. Looking at the book in front of him, Jiang Ruan's eyes became long.
