Tibetan beads

Chapter 290 Tanabata
On the day of Qixi Festival, Xu Yin entered the palace early in the morning.

She first went to Yongshou Palace and played with Princess Changning for most of the day. In the afternoon, the two of them washed and changed their clothes, dressed up and went to see Concubine Xian.

Concubine Xian is dressed up grandly today, with a golden phoenix hairpin on her head and a phoenix feather pendant on her ears. The necklace, bracelet, and ring are all jeweled, really bright and compelling.

Princess Changning wowed: "Concubine Xian is so beautiful today!"

Speaking of which, Concubine Xian is only in her thirties and has never given birth. Although she is not as delicate as the new beauties, she is still beautiful and delicate.It's just that in the past, under the limelight of Concubine Shu and Concubine De, she kept a low profile and hardly had such a time for putting on makeup.

Women are not unhappy when they are praised for their beauty, not to mention the harem that uses beauty as a weapon.Concubine Xian smiled, with a friendly attitude: "Are you here?"

As he said that, he turned his head and said to Liu Xier who was at the side: "Didn't you just ask which bead flower looks good? They are all little girls. The princess and the county lord must have better eyes than me, so I ask them to give you some advice." .”

Liu Xi'er bit her lip, not daring to show her reluctance, and replied: "Yes." Then she showed a cramped smile to them, "Princess, Miss Xu San, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Princess Changning was not very happy, but she went to see Zhuhua with Xu Yin to save Concubine Xian's face.

Liu Xi'er chose the magnolia pearl flower herself, the lustrous jade color and the beautiful petals, it suits her very well.Concubine Xian felt dissatisfied, so she picked out a few more bright and beautiful flowers.

Princess Changning also likes bright colors, and she excluded the magnolia pearl flower at a glance, and said bluntly: "Although this suits you, but today we are celebrating the festival, wearing such a plain dress will not help embarrassing the nobleness of the empress!"

Liu Xi'er was a little embarrassed, and forced a smile: "What the princess said is true, I didn't think carefully."

The remaining ones have flowers and sparrows, all of which are beautiful.

Princess Changning couldn't choose, so she pulled Xu Yin and asked, "Which one do you like?"

Xu Yin thought for a while, and ordered a pearl hairpin that was tired of gold butterflies and flowers: "Well, what the empress wears today is a gold phoenix, and if Miss Liu wears a gold butterfly, it will match well."

The maid took out the pearl hairpin and put it on for Liu Xi'er.

The butterflies made of gold silk trembled on her hair, as if they were about to fly away, adding a touch of nobility to her dull face.

Xu Yin asked the maid to change her red lipstick again, and then lightly applied a layer of rouge on the corners of her eyes and cheeks.

Concubine Xian nodded in satisfaction, and praised: "It's better that you have good eyesight, Xi'er can learn more in the future."

Liu Xi'er replied yes, and when she caught sight of Xu Yin, she felt a little pain in her heart.

If she had Xu San's appearance, would she still be afraid that she would not be able to hold back her attire?
After tidying up, the three of them followed Concubine Xian to the terrace.

The terrace is a place for watching the scenery in the palace and escaping the summer heat. The surrounding water is formed into a canal, and the lotus leaves are fielded in summer, which is the coolest.

Seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar landscape, Xu Yin couldn't help but feel sad.

After my sister entered the palace in the previous life, she often stood here and looked at her hometown that she could not return to.Later, Emperor You renovated and rebuilt the terrace and renamed it Yingtai, where he often drank and had fun.

Everyone said that the screen was built by him for his sister, but only Xu Yin knew that since then, her sister has no place to miss her.In the end, he died there in a fire, and was buried with Emperor You.

Xu Yin let out a breath, and quickly pulled out his melancholy from his memories.Now that King Duan has lost power ahead of time, this scene will never happen again.

There were already quite a few people on the terrace, all the concubines and beauties of the palace, as well as the royal relatives, saw the concubine Xian coming, and they all got up and saluted.

Concubine Xian smiled and made them flattened, looking graceful.

Seeing her like this, the concubines felt complicated.In the past, I really underestimated Concubine Xian. I never thought that she, who was silenced in the past, would become the last winner.His Majesty has no plans to establish another queen, and recently he trusts Concubine Xian very much, so she is no different from the lord of the first palace.

The girls were not interested in these undercurrents. As soon as Concubine Xian took her seat, Princess Jinghua couldn't wait to greet her: "Changning! Why are you here so late? Come and see the mask I just bought this morning."

Princess Changning immediately said: "Do you have a new look? A few days ago, Ah Yin helped me buy a set for Qixi Festival. There is a magpie bridge in it, which is really beautiful! Brocade book, get it out quickly."

Princess Jiayi and others also came over, chatting around the two sets of masks.

Liu Xi'er found an opportunity to interject a few words, everyone looked at Concubine Xian's face, and their attitude was quite kind.

When the emperor came over, he saw such a scene.

He had been in a bad mood for two months because of King Duan's matter, but now seeing everyone enjoying themselves happily, he felt better.

"Your Majesty." Concubine Xian took the lead and got up to greet her.

Seeing her in full makeup, the emperor was in a daze for a moment—in the impression that Concubine Xian was quiet and indifferent, as if she had no color, it was only now that he remembered that the daughter of the Liu family was famous for her beauty back then, if not for this, he would not have treated Miss Liu love at first sight.

"My dear concubine, please get up." He personally supported Xianfei, then waved at the others, "Let's all get flat, we are all from our own family today, just do whatever you want."

Everyone should be, and then they saw a group of teenagers behind the emperor.

The crown prince and several princes, as well as Yan Ling who was mixed in, and a strange son.

Everyone is familiar with Yanling, but the other one has never been seen.

Concubine Li saw it at a glance, and said first: "This strange son, is he the son of Duke Zhao, right? He is really a good-looking talent."

Concubine Xian cast her gaze over.

The Yan family are all tall, and so is Yan Cheng.He is obviously more like his father, not as bright and dazzling as his younger brother, but he has handsome features and a calm demeanor. Standing among this group of frizzy teenagers, he is particularly eye-catching.

Concubine Xian slowly broke into a smile, watched Yan Cheng come forward, and bowed to them: "Chen Yancheng, I have seen a few empresses."

"Please get up!" She said softly, "Today is a family holiday, His Majesty brought you here, you are my nephew, no need to be polite."

"Thank you, ma'am." Yan Cheng straightened his body, thinking that this virtuous concubine really has a good temper as rumored, but he doesn't know what's going on inside.

After seeing the ceremony, everyone went to play separately.

The emperor and his concubines are together, the prince and others have their own banquets outside, and the girls also have other places to beg for cleverness.

Yan Ling watched Xu Yin go away, and sighed inwardly.I thought I could celebrate the festival together when I came to the palace, but now I see it, but I can't even say a word.

Yan Cheng glanced at his expression, and teased in a low voice: "Have you wasted your thoughts? Qixi Festival is a girl's festival, why would you spend it with us? Well, there will be opportunities to meet later, don't hang your face, let others see you Not happy."

"They want to be happy if I'm not happy? Hmph!" Yan Ling muttered, but she put her emotions away after all.

　Students who want to buy around can find the management.
