Queen Xiaoxi

Chapter 73 Liang Jiugong’s Determination
"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th. It is also the first festival you will participate in after being promoted to a noble. You must prepare well. I heard that the Queen Mother will also attend." The nobleman sat on the embroidered pier and held his head. He picked up the tea cup and said.

It was lunch time, and Wanxian went to the main hall to have dinner with An Bin and Bu Guiren.After finishing the meal, Bu Gui and An Bin took Wan Xian and talked about their daily life.

In fact, this Mid-Autumn Festival is not Wanxian's first festival after entering the palace. Except for the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, the other banquets in the palace are not allowed for the young masters below the nobles.

"Your Majesty, what kind of person is the Queen Mother?" Wanxian also asked, picking up the teacup handed over by Aunt Yun.

"The Queen Mother is an easy-going person. She never interferes in the affairs of the harem. Just because Concubine Yi's fifth elder brother was raised under the Queen Mother's knees, therefore only Concubine Yi has three respects in front of the Queen Mother. The other concubines and the Queen Mother are always on their faces. Take it easy, tomorrow you will just follow the crowd and pay a visit to the Queen Mother." Concubine An pointed at Wanxian and said.

Bu Guiren also said: "That's right, you just need to follow me and pay my respects to the Queen Mother. However, the greetings tomorrow morning will not be so easy."

"This is true. You only stayed in Qianqing Palace for two nights before, and there were a lot of rumors. Now that you have stayed in Qianqing Palace for six or seven days, they will make things more difficult for you." An Bin He took over the conversation and said.

Wanxian put down the tea cup, touched the jade pendant in her sleeve and said comfortingly: "I'm not afraid of them. They just say what they want, and I just listen to what I like to hear."

Seeing Wanxian speak like this, Concubine An felt relieved and said, "You are right to think so. They are just jealous of your favor. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has sent your nobleman's auspicious clothes, so you can try them on too." If there is anything bad in the test, I can ask the palace maid who knows needlework to correct it."

"The auspicious clothes have been sent a long time ago." Wanxian thought for a while, remembering that after she was promoted to nobleman, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent court clothes and auspicious clothes.

"That's good. We will wear Jifu tomorrow night. You have to ask Yunxia and the others to put it away carefully." Bu Guiren warned carefully.

"Empress, Wanxian knows." Wanxian said obediently.

"That's good. It's getting late. You can go back and take a rest. We're taking a rest too." An Bin said to Wanxian with concern.

"Then Wanxian is going back first." Wanxian stood up, bowed and left, then returned to the back hall.

When Concubine An saw that Wanxian had left, she said to Lord Bu: "Tomorrow, you must carefully follow Wanxian and lead her, and don't behave inappropriately in front of the Queen Mother."

"Sister, I understand. Don't worry, my empress." Bu Guiren nodded in agreement.

"Yun Gu, take a closer look at Wanxian's Jifu later. It's better to be careful." Concubine An ordered Aunt Yun again.

Aunt Yun also hurriedly walked to Concubine An and said, "Don't worry, Madam, I will handle this matter properly."

An Bi felt relieved and said, "That's good."

In the evening, Grandma Yun went to the back hall to help Wanxian put on her auspicious clothes and take a look.

"My young master, please turn around and show me." Grandma Yun said as she watched Wanxian put on the stone blue auspicious uniform.

Wanxian listened to what Grandma Yun said, turned around obediently and said, "Mom, this is the auspicious dress. Why is the auspicious dress such a color?"

"My lord, this is the auspicious dress. The concubines' auspicious dresses are all azurite, but the pattern of the patchwork on them is different." Seeing that Wanxian asked questions, Grandma Yun also wanted to make some suggestions.

"My lord, all the masters of the royal family wear ceremonial clothes. The clothes of the concubines are divided into court clothes, auspicious clothes, and ordinary clothes. The ceremonial colors of the court clothes are bright yellow for the queen and the imperial concubine, and golden yellow for the imperial concubine and concubine. , the color for concubines is fragrant, and the color for nobles is green. Concubines below the nobles do not have court clothes, and court clothes are worn during grand ceremonies. As for the auspicious clothes, they are all azurite and are worn at family banquets. There are also ordinary clothes, which are Ordinary clothes made of the concubine’s rank.”

"I see. Wanxian has learned a lot when mama said this." Wanxian said, touching the auspicious clothes on her body.

"The young master looks really energetic when he is dressed like this. He will be even more energetic if he wears court clothes." Yunxia saw her aunt talking to the young master and wanted to join in the fun.

"Okay, you guys, please help me take off my auspicious clothes. I need to rest early, I will be busy all day tomorrow." Grandma Yun stepped forward and helped Wanxian. He said while taking off his clothes.

"Well, I'm tired and want to rest." Wanxian nodded and said.In fact, Wanxian already misses Long Live Lord, but she just doesn't want to tell anyone about it.So I want to send everyone away and look at the portrait of Long Live Lord by myself to relieve my feelings of longing for him.As soon as Wanxian said she was tired, Grandma Yun quickly led Yunxia and the others to change Wanxian's clothes.

After Wanxian got on the bed, she said: "You all go out, there is no need to stay here. I want to rest quietly."

"The servant asked Yunxia and Caixia to guard outside the house." Grandma Yun said with concern.

Wanxian was half lying on the bed, covered herself with a quilt, nodded and said, "Okay, let's lift the curtains and curtains. Just leave a lamp in the corner."

Grandma Yun nodded, hurriedly lifted the curtain and said, "The slaves have resigned."

After saying that, he took Yunxia and others out of the inner room.After Wanxian heard the closing sound, she quietly lifted the bed curtain.

After getting off the bed, he walked to the corner without putting on his shoes, picked up the lamp, and placed it on the low cabinet beside the bed.

By the light, Wanxian took out Kangxi's portrait from the bedside.After unfolding it and looking at it for a long time, he carefully put it away and put the lamp back in the corner.After lying back on the bed, I held the jade pendant given by Kangxi and fell asleep.

Wanxian was thinking about Kangxi here, and Kangxi was also thinking about Wanxian in the Qianqing Palace.

Kangxi seemed to be somewhat accustomed to Wanxian being around.After dinner, Kangxi sat alone on the heated kang in the Xinuan Pavilion, wondering what he was thinking.

Kangxi thought this way: since the last time he took the little girl to throw the pot.After dinner, I would always take the little girl to throw the pot together for a while to eat, listening to the joyful sound of the little girl throwing in the pot.Let's lie down together on the hot kang in Xinan Pavilion and read for a while. The little girl will always stick to her side obediently.After taking a shower and changing clothes, they hugged the little girl and went to bed together.With the little girl by my side, time seems to pass faster.

"That's it. I'll bring the little girl back after tomorrow." Kangxi thought as he shook off the Eighteen Sons in his hand.He shouted: "Liang Jiugong."

Liang Jiugong was waiting outside Xinuan Pavilion. When he heard the cry of Long Live Lord, he immediately entered Xinuan Pavilion to say hello. "Long live Lord, my servant is here. Long live Lord, what are your orders?"

"Early tomorrow morning, send someone to keep an eye on Chengqian Palace. If anyone bullies Shugui, come back and tell me." Kangxi warned Liang Jiugong carefully.

"Come on, I will order you to go down immediately. Long Live Lord, please rest assured." Liang Jiugong quickly replied.

"Okay, I'm tired too. You help me change my clothes while I rest." Kangxi nodded.After saying that, he opened his body and signaled Liang Jiugong to change his clothes.

Liang Jiugong quickly called the maids outside to come into the palace to serve him. After serving Kangxi on the bed, Liang Jiugong led the maids away.

After closing the door, Liang Jiugong secretly made up his mind to please Shu Gui from now on and run Shu Gui's errands well.

God knows, how many times did Long Live Lord mention Shuguiren throughout the whole day, how many times absent-mindedly.

Normally, Long live the Lord's daily life in the East Nuan Pavilion, and only the concubine who is lucky enough to live in the West Nuan Pavilion.But since Shu Gui moved into Xi Nuan Pavilion, Long Live Master has been living with Shu Gui.Now even Shugui is not around, Long Live Lord is resting in Xi Nuan Pavilion, which also shows the importance of Shugui.

"Sanxi, come here." Liang Jiugong walked out of the palace gate and said to Zhao Sanxi who was guarding outside the Xinuan Pavilion.Zhao Sanxi glanced proudly at Wei Zhu who was guarding the door together, walked to Liang Jiugong's position, and said, "Master, what can I do for you? Please give me your orders."

Liang Jiugong glanced at Wei Zhu in the palace, took Zhao Sanxi to a remote place and said: "From now on, you will have to keep an eye on everything related to Shugui people in the Sixth Palace. Also, you will have to keep an eye on me tomorrow." In the morning, I stared at the Chengqian Palace carefully and listened carefully to everything going on inside. If anyone offends you, please tell me immediately."

Zhao Sanxi listened to Liang Jiugong's instructions and asked in a low voice: "Master, you mean that this noble lady will have great luck in the future."

"You just know it yourself. Remember Master, I won't harm you. Go ahead." Liang Jiugong patted Zhao Sanxi on the shoulder and said.

"Yes, apprentice, I will definitely take care of this matter. Thank you Master for the promotion." Zhao Sanxi nodded and said.
