Chapter 300

As soon as empress Chen said this, the imperial concubine and the ladies here looked at each other. The people who knew each other exchanged eyes, and everyone knew it.

The painting was not on the gift list of the purple Marquis house. It was obviously presented separately. Empress Chen didn't ask so many girls, but directly asked Wei Lanyi, which was a tacit understanding for a long time. Painting or not is just a formality. It's true that empress Chen has a crush on the girl of the Wei family.

Wei Lanyi, who was named, was worried. She had practiced at home countless times. Today, she would still be a little nervous when she came to the main hall of Jingyang palace. After all, her mother was the only one at home, but here, all the concubines in the palace and the life women in various houses were present. Any one had identity. If she can shine today, the position of the people around the four princes will be fixed. If she can't shine, she will lose not only her own people, but also the face of imperial concubine Chen.

Concubine Chen has a very good reputation. She will not like a girl who can't even reach the standard of etiquette.

She took the lotus step steadily. Wei Lanyi stepped out of the line according to the standard steps she had practiced countless times at home. She walked in front of Princess Chen. Her hands were flat on her chest, and her palms overlapped with the back of her hands. She saluted. She was graceful without vulgarity. She really had a bit of everyone's style. The smile on the face of Chen Fei's empress gradually flourished, and there was a sense of expectation and appreciation in her eyes.

"The courtiers are not talented, so they have made a painting carefully." Wei Lanyi said. She raised her head slightly, and the arc of her jaw was just right, both modest and not too servile. "I wish concubine Chen eternal youth." she didn't say much. Based on the principle that more words must be lost, she said less and made less mistakes. The voice is as pleasant as a valley warbler, and her dress is really bright and colorful.

Even the ladies of other families nodded secretly when they saw it. Imperial concubine Chen's eyes were so fierce that she could find such a beautiful jade like girl among the concubines in the purple Marquis house. When we saw the performance of Wei Lan Yi, we couldn't help but take another look at Wei Ruo Yi. The concubine of the purple Marquis house is so excellent, but the legitimate daughter is a bad guy.

Wei ruoyi stood with his eyes on his nose and his heart. She said that she was used to being shot when lying down. Anyway, whoever came out of her family had to be pulled to compete with her. She is the lower benchmark of the purple Marquis house. It's right that everyone is better than her.

Being too famous is also a burden.

"Spread out and have a look." the empress of imperial concubine Chen nodded with satisfaction. The girl didn't disappoint her, not like Wei ruoyi.

A eunuch went up, took the painting, stood on both sides and unfolded the framed painting bit by bit.

It was a banner painting with various forms of orchids painted on it. The painting was meticulous and the strokes were uniform. As a fine brush painting, it can be called a textbook model. But as Wei ruoyi said, it's just a painting. If it becomes a photo, it's more realistic. However, the difference between a photo and a painting is that a photo only captures the appearance of things, while a painting can reveal the soul. Unfortunately, the words of Weilan clothes have no soul. They are lifelike, but they are not moving.

The empress of imperial concubine Chen looked carefully and nodded her head. She was not particularly brilliant, but she didn't make mistakes. That's OK.

She was about to have the painting put away when she suddenly smelled a faint aroma of orchids.

"Eh?" she looked around in surprise, but she didn't. the incense in the palace was chosen by herself. It was the smell of lily. The orchid fragrance was not strong, but it was wispy and private. It really gave people a feeling of being in the orchid room.

Not only imperial concubine Chen smelled it, but also other imperial concubines and life women smelled the elegant orchid aroma.

"Wonderful." empress Chen then dropped her eyes on the painting and said with a smile, "it's the orchid girl of the Wei family who makes the painting full of orchid fragrance. It's really that the fragrance complements the painting. Wonderful, wonderful." she praised it, and others quickly praised it.

"Let's say where the orchid fragrance came from. It turned out to be floating out of the painting. The painting is divine." empress Xi Bin also smiled. She was always gloomy a few days ago because she was sued by Wei ruoyi. Although her majesty didn't say anything directly to her, concubine Chen was warned. It's a fact. She doesn't dare to take more risks these days. Today is the birthday of imperial concubine Chen. She seized the opportunity to hold imperial concubine Chen.

Fushun stood behind the empress Xi Bin and could only say, "Lanyi girl is really a cymbic orchid heart." after that, she took a hard look at Wei Ruo Yi. Wei Ruo Yi just didn't see it. Fu Shun's face was a little blue.

Wei Lanyi, who was praised, was not arrogant and impetuous. "It was the fragrant birthday of Princess Chen that made the painting fragrance all over the room. Princess Chen was as noble and elegant as this orchid in the eyes of her courtiers. That's why the courtiers got the inspiration for the painting." as soon as she said this, Wei ruoyi wanted to laugh. Is this your own inspiration? Forget it. Since she taught Wei Lanyi, she wouldn't care about it with Wei Lanyi.

"This girl, her mouth is really sweet." the empress of imperial concubine Chen smiled. "Come on, this string of beads has been worn in the palace for a long time. Today, I'll give it to you." after that, she took off a string of white jade beads from her wrist and handed them to the maid of honor around her. The maid of honor presented the string of beads to Wei Lanyi.

Wei Lanyi was overjoyed, but she was still depressed to prevent herself from showing too much joy. She saluted again, and then retreated to one side.

The old lady looked at all this with a smile. When the people in the guard house sat down in the hall, the Duke of Yasukuni whispered to the old lady, "Congratulations, old lady."

"Where did the wedding come from?" the old lady pretended to be a fool.

"I'm afraid there's going to be a prince and concubine in the family." the Duke of Yasukuni smiled.

"There's nothing wrong with the eight characters." the old lady whispered away, but the smile lines in the corners of her eyes were deeper.

Wei ruoyi stood behind the old lady and caught a glimpse of Wei Lanyi on her side. She was overjoyed to put on the string of white jade beads and carefully put down her sleeves to cover it. She felt a little funny. She touched her wrist with a string of Dongzhu bracelets given by Xiao Jin.
