Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 575
As soon as the emperor left, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became much more relaxed. Seven or eight maids and nuns walked in one after another from outside the door. The woman dressed as nuns at the head of the room, whom I knew I had seen before, was the Aunt Qi in Pan Jiaming's mouth.

The hands of several palace maids were all empty, and a large table was quickly filled with cups and dishes brought out from the food boxes in their hands.

Exquisite fine white porcelain plates contain various exquisite snacks, as well as many flower-shaped and small animal-shaped ones. The exquisite steamed dumplings come in six or seven colors, arranged into beautiful rainbows...

The queen smiled softly: "You came to the palace early in the morning and you didn't have anything to eat, right? Come on, it's just a good time to have breakfast with me, and then we'll go to greet the Queen Mother."

As the queen spoke, the maid cleaned her hands, then took the cup of goat's milk handed over by Aunt Qi and drank slowly: "Speaking of which, Ruo girl gave you the method to deodorize the goat's milk. , otherwise I really can’t stand the taste.”

Zhiruo also washed her hands in the small basin brought by the palace maid: "Zhiruo happened to read it from a book." It's really a husband and a wife. The emperor just called her girl, and the queen's title immediately became Ruo girl. .Is it because of this tacit understanding that the emperor, who constantly favored concubines, never let go of the queen?She had always thought that Ling Xiang'er, Rong's imperial concubine in her previous life, really doted on the Sixth Palace as rumored, and made the queen and three thousand concubines mere decorations. However, the dream Ling Xiang'er mentioned that day made her realize that even Ling Xiang'er A beauty like Xiang'er still failed to successfully drive a wedge between the two empresses.

Looking at the warm and bright smile on the queen's still smooth and delicate face, as well as the flower-shaped pastries and cute rainbow dumplings, Zhiruo can feel that the queen is indeed living a comfortable, refined and confident life.Such a woman is considered a successful woman in this era.

I only ate a small bowl of bird's nest porridge when I went out early in the morning. Zhiruo was really hungry. I drank a glass of apple and red date juice, two yam cakes stuffed with date paste, a tofu skin bun, a hibiscus omelette, and two rainbow dumplings. , and then put down the chopsticks with satisfaction.Needless to say, the products produced by the imperial dining room are indeed extraordinary, no worse than those Western pastries from later generations at Dim Sum.Being able to have breakfast in the palace is not an opportunity that comes easily. How much will it cost to be pretentious?

Zhihui and Zhixuan were a little timid at first, but seeing their eldest sister being so calm, they also picked up their chopsticks and happily and gracefully had breakfast with the Queen.

The queen nodded secretly with satisfaction. The emperor was right. This girl took care of her younger brothers and sisters very well.Qianxin has such good children, this life is worth it.

The queen usually had breakfast alone, but today she had these girls eating happily in front of her, and she even felt her appetite improved.

Several people put down their chopsticks one after another. Just as the maids were about to step forward to clean up, another maid came in from the outside: "Your Majesty, someone from Cihe Palace said that the Queen Mother is waiting to summon three girls from the Yin family, and other ladies are also here. In Cihe Palace."

The Queen rinsed her mouth leisurely, and when she saw that the four Zhiruo people had packed up and stood up, she said: "Let's go, don't keep the Queen Mother waiting." The Queen Mother usually gets up at this time, but she is so anxious today. , I don’t know what you are thinking about?Or was he bewitched by someone?Why are some people so calculating?Don’t you know that as long as the emperor is concerned about something, everyone’s plans will come to nothing?

There were four uncovered sedan chairs, one large, three small and one small, parked outside the hall. The golden eight-carried sedan chair with a golden phoenix pattern belonged to the Queen. The pink four-carried sedan chair behind it belonged to Princess Lingya. The Queen also Even though Ling'er pulled Xuan'er to sit together, the two blue sedans at the end were naturally prepared for Zhiruo and Zhihui.

Sitting on the sedan chair, it is convenient to see the scenery along the road, and people feel more relaxed.However, there really weren't many sights to see from Qianqing Palace to Cihe Palace. Only the deep alleys left the deepest impression on her.

After driving the sedan chair for about a quarter of an hour, I raised my eyes and saw the gorgeous palace in front of me. Looking from a distance, it was decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, resplendent in gold and jade.The four corners of the temple are raised high, like four swallows spreading their wings, looking particularly magnificent under the blue sky.

As the sedan approached, I saw that the main hall was decorated with red flowers like inverted bells. The flowers were graceful in shape, like dance skirts, and like golden bells hanging upside down with dots of red.

In the autumn, seeing the green vines and lantern-like flowers dotted on the branches and leaves actually made my slightly anxious heart feel happy and relaxed a lot.Coincidentally, a burst of sweet laughter from Yingying Yanyan came faintly along with the wind, reminding Zhiruo who had just relaxed a little. He didn't know how many swords and swords were hidden in the laughter in the hall.After passing through two doors, the sedan chair stopped.

Before they landed, similar sharp voices were heard again: the Queen has arrived, Princess Lingya has arrived, and the three girls from the Yin family have arrived.

Zhiruo felt a little more at ease. Whether it was the emperor's purpose of summoning their siblings to the palace banquet this time, or the emperor's and queen's attitude just now, and even their friendship with Pan Jiaming's brother and sister, she believed that the queen would not let those People plotted against her.Of course, she is not so calculating.

With a thousand thoughts going through her mind, Rudong had already stretched out his hand to help her get off the sedan.His feet were firmly on the ground, and his mind had settled.Soldiers are coming to stop them, water is coming to cover them, and we have experienced a lot of intrigues in the shopping mall. Aren't they just a group of concubines playing scheming tricks? Why should we be afraid?It’s useless to be afraid!
The sisters followed the queen into the central hall, and a group of people knelt down and said, "I pay my respects to the queen."

The queen's smile was dignified and grand: "Sisters, there is no need to be polite, just keep your body straight."

"Thank you, Queen!" All the concubines said in unison and quickly separated into two rows to make room.

The Queen stepped forward and knelt down to salute the Queen Mother who was sitting on the throne on the left: "I wish to express my regards to the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother stretched out her right hand to give him a virtual support, and said with a smile: "Get up, I'm waiting for you."

The queen then moved to the main seat on the right and sat down: "Sisters, please sit down."

The concubines were almost standing in front of their own seats, and after hearing the words, they all sat down.

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had finished greeting each other, it was the turn of sisters Ling'er and Zhiruo.

The four of them knelt down and bowed again, of course, only to the Queen Mother. As for the other concubines, they just said "Greetings to all of you, Queen Mother."Even if you need to greet someone alone later, you usually only need to squat deeply to salute.

"Come, come, let the Ai family take a good look," the Queen Mother, who was wearing a pine-patterned rosewood color robe with large sleeves, smiled kindly, "Okay, okay, they are really clear and beautiful sisters. The Ai family looks at it. She's a bit prettier than Qianxin, who looks like a red pepper." The three sisters already looked alike, but when they stood there wearing dresses of the same color and style with different patterns on the skirts, it was a special sight. .

　Just one update today, and two will be released earlier and later tomorrow.
