The biography of Concubine Lin in the harem

Who is pity for Linglong harp (2)

Zhu Chengbi nodded slightly, and was about to go back to the table, but he saw Yizhen standing not far behind, with a half moon hanging in the sky, under the hazy night, his figure seemed to be covered with a layer of light mist.

Zhu Chengbi was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said: "My lord is well."

Yizhen nodded, but only silently looked at the blue bricks on the ground. Zhu Chengbi looked sideways, and although the waxy green tung leaves were still lush, the edges were slightly curled up, as if lightly touching them with his hands would melt away. Fragmented, the faint moonlight sprinkled down, and the light and dark alternated, and the shadow of the tung leaves slanted and fell on the blue bricks, like the interlacing and overlapping of flower shadows.

Zhu Xi lowered his eyes slightly, and quietly backed away a little with his sleeves and hands.

Yizhen's voice was a little cold, as if stained with a thin layer of night frost: "Brother Huang should be in good health recently."

Zhu Chengbi smiled lightly: "It's much better."

Yizhen looked sideways at the Bianhua flowers not far away. The inverted petals curled backwards. The wavy edges seemed to be smudged with light white, surrounded by vermilion petals. In this cool early autumn night, there was a kind of Alluring and desolate.

"On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th, is the emperor going to take Concubine Shu and the Sixth Highness to Tonghua Terrace?"

Zhu Chengbi was taken aback, and said in a low voice: "The emperor has this plan."

There was no expression on Yizhen's quiet face, but he felt a slight trembling of his eyelashes like splashed ink, and he hesitated a little: "Are you coming with me?"

Zhu Chengbi couldn't help but laugh when he heard the words: "Why did the prince ask this so politely, I naturally won't go."

Yizhen seemed to be relieved, but Zhu Chengbi said softly and caringly: "The prince is busy with business recently, but he should also pay attention to his body." Zhu Chengbi smiled slightly, "I just heard from Concubine Xu that the prince often suffers from insomnia these days. Zhu Xi went to inform the Imperial Physician Liang, and asked him to go to the prince's mansion tomorrow to have a look, the emperor regards the prince most now, if the prince is ill, who can share the worry for the emperor."

As the evening breeze blew, Zhu Chengbi raised his hand to gather the broken hair on his sideburns, his sleeves fluttered lightly, and the jasper lotus bracelet seemed to shine brightly in the light moonlight, like the halo of a star.

Yizhen's eyes flashed, and he only turned his head to look at the Bianhua, which was in full bloom, and said slowly: "Just look at the Bianhua, the flower and the leaves will never meet, it's like a fate destined to be missed, these days, I always wonder if it wasn't because of that picture of Luoshen, would you and I have a better life now."

Zhu Chengbi's heart was shocked, the bitterness suddenly rolled up in his heart, his throat was almost choked, he tried his best to smile and said: "'Beautiful and elegant, quiet and leisurely, tender and graceful, charming in words', this is what you said at the beginning Do you remember what you told me?"

Yizhen nodded lightly: "At that time, I was still a childhood sweetheart. Although I used this sentence to joke with you, it was from the bottom of my heart."

Zhu Chengbi smiled lightly: "You and the emperor were raised by the Empress Dowager Zhaoxian, after all, they are quite similar. You know, the emperor also used this sentence when he first met me."

Yi Chen was taken aback, seemingly in disbelief.

"The small character of Zhenning, Yirou, is what the emperor started from this sentence, so I almost never call her Yirou." Zhu Chengbi smiled sadly, "Just now Concubine Xu laughed at me for having a relationship with Zhenning, but She doesn't know, every time I think of her small print, I always feel sad."

There seemed to be a slight movement of a tree shadow in the distance, and Zhu Xi immediately became alert, and scolded: "Who is it?" Jump on the wall again.

Zhu Xi hurriedly said: "Niang Niang, you have been out for a long time, you should go back to Pixiang Palace."

Yizhen also turned his attention, took two steps back slightly, and said: "To avoid suspicion, the empress should go back to the palace first, and I will go back in a while."

When Zhu Chengbi returned to the palace in a hurry, he saw Enbi was teasing Xuanfen in his arms, and when Zhu Chengbi came in, he smiled and said, "Where did the empress go just now, the Fourth Highness asked about it."

Zhu Chengbi smiled lightly: "Perhaps I drank too much wine and felt a little dizzy, so I just sat outside for a while to sober up." His eyes turned slightly, but Xuan Ling and Zhen Ning were chatting and laughing with Le An, but Concubine He Seats are empty.

Zhu Chengbi was thinking about it, but Enpin laughed and said: "Just now Fen'er was mischievous and knocked over a glass of narcissus wine, so I went to the side hall with my concubine to change clothes."

Zhu Chengbi suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and tried his best to smile: "Let me hug Fen'er." Looking around, he saw Yizhen walking slowly into the hall, with a slight sadness in his brows, he hurriedly looked away, only lowered his eyes. Smiling warmly at Xuanfen, Xuanfen seemed to have sensed something, and laughed too.

Concubine Yi held a cup of tangerine fragrance, smiled and said to Yidan: "Although the ancestral system locks the draft every three years, but the position of concubines in the Sixth Palace is currently hanging around, if the emperor is willing, it is not impossible to draft one year in advance."

Yi Dan smiled faintly: "Although a new love is good, an old love is even rarer, and the Queen Mother has recently passed away, so it is not suitable for drafting."

Concubine Yi smiled gently: "It's my concubine's omission, but I just thought that the emperor was always in poor health a few days ago, if there were a few more lovely younger sisters to take good care of him, it wouldn't be the case." With a slight flick of the light, Concubine Shu Gui was slightly embarrassed, but she just bowed her head and said nothing.

Yidan put a chopstick of Ruyi candied lotus root into Concubine Shu's bowl, turned to Concubine Yi with a smile, "My concubine has a heart, but the selection is a bit abrupt right now."

Concubine Yi took off the handkerchief and covered her mouth with a smile: "Actually, there is no need for a draft, what do you think of the music of silk and bamboo tonight?"

Yidan pondered for a while, and smiled: "This song "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" is exquisite, who played it?"

Hearing Yidan's summons, Fu Wanting hurriedly stepped forward and bowed her knees to salute: "Slave servant Shangyi Bureau Sile Fu Wanting wishes the emperor peace!" The voice was clear and clear, like the moon in an empty mountain, and like ripples in a clear spring. Luo's long skirt complemented her slender figure even more.

Yi Dan nodded slightly: "Did you arrange all the songs for tonight?"

Fu Wanting replied respectfully: "Yes."

Concubine Yi covered her sleeves and smiled, and also praised: "It's really hard work." Turning her head, she saw Xuan Xun who was beside her carefully sizing up Fu Wanting, and unconsciously frowned, she gave him a slight push.

Concubine He, who was seated for the first time, understood the words and said with a slight smile: "Since the emperor likes it, how about letting Fu Wanting accompany the emperor and play a few songs for the emperor from time to time?"

Fu Wanting was taken aback when he heard the words, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said in panic: "The concubine and the concubine are too flattering to the slaves, but the status of the slaves is humble, how dare they serve the emperor around."

Concubine Yi raised her eyebrows and said slowly: "As long as the emperor likes it, that's fine. Emperor Taizu's imperial concubine is the daughter of a butcher, isn't it the same as concubine?"

Yidan smiled lightly, shook Concubine Shu's hands, turned to Fu Wanting and said, "Since both Concubine Yi and Concubine He feel good, I will make you the eighth-rank female picker and give you a residence in Yinyue Pavilion."

Historically, maids of honor as concubines can only be promoted by one level according to the rules, and court ladies are not allowed to be named empresses. This was the case with the former concubines and Qin nobles, but Fu Wanting actually skipped changing clothes and directly named Cainu, everyone couldn't help being surprised. Whispering angrily.Concubine Yi, on the other hand, took the wine glass and stood up with a smile, "Why is Fu Cainu in a daze, but Huanxi is so stupid, why don't you kowtow to the emperor to thank you?"

So everyone also congratulated Yidan for winning another beauty, and also congratulated the newly promoted Fu Cainu. Fu Cainu was just a little shy, and after thanking her, she was surrounded by several court ladies from Shangyi Bureau.

Concubine Yi raised her lips and said with a smile: "Tonight is also a good day for Sister Fu, my concubine is a little drunk, how about going to Yinyue Pavilion to accompany my sister?"

Yidan smiled faintly, his eyes dimmed, and he stroked the smooth sapphire wine glass in his hand one by one with his fingers. The "Rose Drunk" in the glass was like a piece of fine rouge, fragrant and fragrant. His eyes were scattered, as if he was listening. It seemed unintentional, but she only said slowly: "Fu Cainu is a member of the Shangyi Bureau. I'm afraid I have to go to the Shangyi Bureau to pack up and say goodbye to the old master. Let's forget it tonight. Since Concubine Yi is a little drunk, I will go Guanju Palace."

Concubine Yi was taken aback, but when she was about to speak, Concubine He cut her off and said: "Sister Yi is rarely drunk, why don't you go to the side hall, my sister cured some green plum soup, it is the best for sobering up. "

Yi Dan also smiled and said: "Since that's the case, take good care of Concubine He, I and Concubine Shu will go back first." After speaking, regardless of Concubine Yi's slightly green face, he took Concubine Shu with him and left.

Zhu Chengbi thought for a while, and realized that Concubine Yi couldn't get used to Concubine Shu's daily doting, so she came up with this method, hoping to use Fu Wanting to share some of Ruan Yanran's doting, but Yidan didn't seem very interested, and probably sealed Fu Wanting Being a picker is just to comfort Concubine Yi.However, since she didn't even go to Yinyue Pavilion tonight, I'm afraid that this newly promoted female picker will also be sparsely favored by Jun in the future.

Zhu Chengbi shook his head lightly, helped Zhu Xi's hand and said, "Go back to Hanzhang Palace."

In the Shangyi Bureau, a court lady with fast legs and feet came to report Fu Wanting's promotion. Shangyi Jian Yunran was delighted and surprised, so she brought Si Ji, Si Bin, Si Zan and other female officials to wait respectfully. "Master Fu is overjoyed."

Fu Wanting was taken aback for a moment, and stepped forward hurriedly, helped Jian Shangyi up and said, "Shangyi really broke me."

Jian Shangyi said sincerely: "The young master is overjoyed. Now that she is a concubine of the emperor, there is a distinction between superiority and inferiority, and there is a difference between cloud and mud, so how can you talk about it?" Konghou's voice is very good, and she also has a first-class good looks, besides, the young master had some friendship with the young master En concubine before, with the support of the concubine Yi and the young master En concubine, the young master will definitely be able to rise to the top."

Fu Wanting was a little dazed, as if she was not very happy, she lowered her eyes and muttered: "Actually, I don't want to..."

Jian Shangyi was taken aback, and hurriedly ordered the female officer standing beside her to go down, and said in a low voice: "What do you mean, my lord? My lord's favor is a blessing that others can't cultivate in a few lifetimes."

Fu Wanting sat down slowly, only drank a cup of jasmine scented slices, Fang said softly: "A few days ago, Concubine Yi called me over, and said that there should be no singing and dancing at the night banquet in Pixiang Palace, just the sound of silk and bamboo. I know, the emperor seldom likes to watch dances now." Fu Wanting paused slightly, and said in a low voice, "It's just that Concubine Yi specially sent this set of clothes here before the banquet today. Although I don't know why, I can only change clothes past."

"This dress is made of brocade embroidery." A clear voice sounded, and Jian Shangyi and Fu Wanting were taken aback, but they saw Concubine En Yingying standing by the door, hurriedly got up and saluted.

Concubine En stepped forward, shook Fu Wanting's slender hand, and said calmly: "Now that you are a mining girl, you should be more careful in your words and deeds. What you said just now, except for me, except for you, and except for Jian Shangyi, don't let me take care of you anymore." Others know."

Jian Shangyi thought about it for a while, and she already understood, she hurriedly knelt down and said: "You two young masters, don't worry, I will forgive you."

With a smile on her lips, Enbi lowered her voice as if she was gossiping, and said kindly: "Yun Ran has always been smart, otherwise she would not have achieved the position of Shang Yi at a young age, the 24th Division of the Sixth Bureau of the Harem. The sun has a bright future." After speaking, Enbi smiled brightly, and said to Fu Wanting, "My sister's Yinyue Pavilion must not be cleaned up yet, how about going to the Moon Shadow Theater tonight?"
