Work overtime

Those who have written it are waiting to see the good show.

Concubine Jing is dressed more gorgeously than usual today, wearing heavy makeup, raised eyebrows, full red lips, wearing emerald five-tailed phoenix hairpins on her head, and the purple dress full of pearls was rushed out a few days ago of the new.

At this time, he was lowering his eyes, casually playing with the jade bracelet newly rewarded by the emperor last night.

"According to the rules, Hai Lanzhu should come to greet the empress today, and she shouldn't be able to rely on her favor." Concubine Jing's voice did not hide the sarcasm.

"Maybe it's because the emperor likes it so much." Zhen Wanyi said flatly.

The queen took a sip of the tea and said, "Don't worry, all the younger sisters, let's have a cup of tea first. When sister Shu arrives, we can talk together. Sister Shu attended bed for the first time last night. Take pity on her, and save her greetings. If Concubine Jing is envious, she can ask the emperor, and I will spare you."

Concubine Jing subconsciously looked into the Queen's eyes.

Her eyes seemed too calm, without waves.

Calm as if watching a group of ants, life and death are just a matter of effort.

Concubine Jing was in a trance for a moment: "The empress's kindness and generosity are beyond comparison. Anyway, it is wrong for her to be late to greet the empress. This is disrespectful to the empress. My sister is afraid of these newcomers. I thought the empress was soft-hearted and didn't follow the rules, so she neglected the daily greetings one by one in the future, which made you angry."

How could the queen fail to realize that she was being given eye drops.

"Concubine Jing is to the point. You used to be late because you were serving the emperor. You should set a good example for your younger sisters in the future. It's just that the younger sisters who have just entered the palace are all fresh and tender, just like the budding Huaguduoer, not to mention the emperor, I also like it very much."

Concubine Jing glanced at the newcomers, frowned, and asked with a coquettish smile, "Empress Empress, which flower do you think blooms the most beautifully?"

"Looking at Concubine Jing's question, all the younger sisters are chosen to enter the palace, so naturally they all look good." The queen smiled faintly, "Concubine Jing, you are as beautiful as your sisters, and you are also extravagant and gorgeous. some."

Concubine Jing was very satisfied when she heard "the beauty of the sky", she didn't hear the irony in the queen's words.

After a while, a eunuch came over and said that the emperor took pity on Shu Wanyi's hard work last night, and today he spared her greetings.

The jealousy on everyone's faces couldn't be concealed.

Concubine Jing's hands hidden in her sleeves were tightly clenched into fists, her nails sunk deep into her palms, but there was no pain.

Unexpectedly, not long after the eunuch who sent the message left, Hai Lanzhu appeared outside Kunning Palace instead.

She was sitting on a batch of newly made wooden chariots rewarded by the emperor, and she was very beautiful.

When she walked in, everyone was stunned.

She was dressed in a white embroidered gold thread gauze dress, wearing a translucent silk veil, curly hair, combed with an exotic hairstyle, and only wore a pearl hairpin on it, but it attracted the attention of everyone present.

Especially those eyes, like the clearest sky in spring, blue and bright.

"My concubine, Hai Lanzhu, pays respects to the empress, and to all the elder sisters."

Different from the women present, Hai Lanzhu showed an unrestrained vivacity in every gesture.

As soon as the words fell, I heard Concubine Jing say: "Look at this Tatar, he was named Shu Wanyi as soon as he entered the palace, and he suppressed our sisters who were second-rank officials by several ranks. But he is still wearing a veil, no If you are willing to be honest and let us see our true colors, you are too disrespectful to the empress and all the sisters."

Compete on the same stage last night, obviously won, but was intercepted.Concubine Jing held her breath all night.

If you don't help Hai Lanzhu pull hatred, her words must not be written backwards.

"My empress, please forgive me. It is my... concubine's custom to wear a veil when I go out. I implore the concubine to allow the concubine to keep it."

The voice fell, and the room was so quiet that even the sound of a needle could be heard.

They were all waiting for the queen to speak.

"Concubine Jing is right. There has been a saying in the Central Plains since ancient times that when you marry a chicken, you follow the dog. Since you are married into our dynasty, you must follow the rules and take off your veil to show others." The queen said softly, full of majesty.

Consistency with the outside world is the basic principle.

Internal problems, internal solutions.Reasonable and well-founded, don't bully the small with the big.

There was another breathless silence.

"If Hai Lanzhu can't do it." Hai Lanzhu's eyelashes are very long, fluttering like a fan, touching people's hearts, with tears in his eyes, "the emperor said"

The emperor said that concubines can treat the palace as their own home.

"Sure enough, I came from a remote place, and I haven't been trained in the etiquette of entering the palace. I just don't know the rules. You should give a big gift to the empress on the first day after serving the bed, and keep saying what the emperor is doing? But it's just serving the bed. For one night, you were the only one who stayed in bed, didn't you?" Concubine Jing glanced at Hai Lanzhu disapprovingly.

She always thought those blue eyes were rather weird, which shouldn't be a normal human being.

It must be the reincarnation of the vixen and the meticulous work, which will definitely be detrimental to the emperor.

It was definitely a mistake to bring her into the palace.

"I" Hai Lanzhu looked like he couldn't argue with anything and felt aggrieved.

Isn't it just a veil?This is not intentional bullying.

"In the harem, you must call yourself a 'concubine or a concubine'." Concubine Li Hui, who had been silent all this time, said softly, "A concubine who is a concubine above the concubine should know the rules and advance and retreat. The empress is the master of the six palaces. Being in charge of the harem, talking back like this, does it mean that you don't take the empress or my Ming Dynasty seriously?"

A big hat was buckled down, and it rose to the level of the system and the country, and the queen said it was refreshing.

"There are indeed no rules. For Wanyi's position, it's not like this." Zhen Wanyi, who is usually the fastest-talking, has been drinking tea and eating today, and that's all she said.

Too lazy to answer.

There are more beauties in the palace, and the competition is a matter of high-level officials, and has nothing to do with her.

As long as she eats and drinks well, her cat can eat and drink well, has a book to read, and allows her mother and younger brother to visit the palace every two months, she will feel that the world is peaceful, everything will be fine, and everything will be safe.

Everything else is trivial.

Concubine Jing pulled her pretty face down, full of sarcasm, "Tatar is in a wild place, lacking education, so naturally it is impossible to raise a well-behaved daughter's family. Wanyi, hehe."

"Okay, don't talk about it. Shu Wanyi just entered the palace last night, and she doesn't understand the rules when she first arrives, but the palace rules have to be learned carefully. The palace will arrange for the tutor to go to your palace to teach etiquette and rules in the next few days , you study hard. Today is the first time, so I won’t punish you severely, but will punish you for copying the palace rules ten times.” The queen said lightly.

"Empress Dowager, it is an ancestor's custom for the concubines who have finished their bedtime to salute you to the Empress Empress. It is a gift of grace and decency to them. Otherwise, there is no way to explain it. If the name is not correct, according to the palace rules, you should be relegated to the rank of rough envoy." Eunuch Liu, chief eunuch of Kunning Palace, said.

"Okay, Shu Wanyi, let's finish the ceremony first." Seeing Hai Lanzhu's bewildered look, the queen thought that Jiang Jinxiu's greeting gesture was the most standard, so she looked at her, "Jiang promised, your etiquette is as good as the newcomer's." It is the most standard. It is up to you to demonstrate to Shu Wanyi how to do it."

At this time, Jiang promised Jiang Yuwei and Jiang Jinxiu to go out at the same time, which surprised everyone.

I didn't think this was a problem before, because there was no roll call.

The queen thought to herself, she had to find a way to distinguish them from now on, otherwise it would be easy to make jokes, "Jiang Jinxiu, teach Shu Wanyi."

"Thank you, Empress, for your tolerance. My concubine must study hard." Seeing the donkey going downhill, Shu Wanyi didn't give up directly.

She was secretly proud of herself, and consciously joined the queen's army. In the final analysis, she still did not take off her veil.

Before coming, she had designed this scene.It is to establish prestige with this, so that these Han women will not dare to underestimate her.

"Yes, the Queen Mother."

Jiang Jinxiu responded crisply, with a sweet voice, reminiscent of the ripe watermelon in summer, sweet and juicy.

She really did a very standard and good-looking job.

Shu Wanyi studied very seriously this time, doing it very respectfully and piously.

The amazing thing is, just like the Bu Yao on Concubine Jing's head, no matter how she leaned over and raised her head, the veil firmly covered her face.

"Sister Jinxiu is indeed up to standard, and she is someone I should learn from. It would be good if Wanxuan waiter has half of her standards." Zhen Wanyi took a sip of tea, "Empress, the emperor punished Wanxuan waiter to learn from the nanny." According to the rules, if you do not pass the examination, you are not allowed to leave the palace. Why did you see her in our East Sixth Palace yesterday? I didn’t see her come to pay her respects today.”

A person like Zhen Wanyi is really good or bad.

The queen nodded, remembering that Xu Fuhai did send someone to notify her early yesterday morning, but she turned around and quickly forgot.

It just so happened that Shu Wanyi was the main empress of Shufang Palace, so it was very convenient for the two of them to hold a small class together to make up lessons.

"It's time to arrange for some experienced nuns to go to Shufang Palace to teach them well. Shu Wanyi, you are the empress of Shufang Palace. You should lead Wan Xuan attendant to learn the rules."
