Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2191 Six Volumes 246 Qin Yi (1 more)
Although it has been half a year since he entered the palace, this Xianfu Palace is the first time that Lan Guiren has set foot here.

Concubine Xin also saw it, so she smiled at Yan Yan, and affectionately took Lan Guiren's hand, and first watched it in Xianfu Palace.

That's all for the main hall, after all, it's a place where people are enthroned and saluted, and there are no people there.The furnishings in the hall are similar to those of other harems, with floors, thrones, screens, and single screens in the open; murals hung on the left and right walls, all of which commend the virtues of the harem throughout the ages.

The two pasted murals in Xianfu Palace are: "Praise of the Holy Jieyu as a Bear" hung by the emperor's imperial pen on the east wall, and "Picture of Jieyu as a Bear" hung on the west wall.

From the bright red Pilu-covered golden nail palace gate on the left and right walls of the Ming Dynasty, enter the left and right rooms twice, the East is the Small Buddha Hall, the west is the Mingchuang Hall, and the Kang is opposite.

That’s all, the shape is similar to other harems—the special thing about Xianfu Palace is that the main hall is only three rooms wide, unlike the main halls of other harems, which are five rooms wide, which makes Concubine Xin feel suffocated Qu, I just took Lan Guiren to stand for a while, and then headed towards the apse.

The "Tongdao Hall" in the apse is the focus that Concubine Xin wants to show Lan Guiren. (Tong Dao Tang, remember Ci Xi’s little seal?)
The Tongdao hall in the back hall is finally five rooms wide, so it doesn't have to be as cramped as the main hall.Holding Lan Guiren's hand, he entered the apse and stood in the open room.The left and right sides of the hall are separated by floor-to-ceiling flower covers, and there are plaques above the left and right rooms.

Concubine Xin looked at Noble Lan with a smile, "Sister Lan, look, the plaque in the East Hall is 'Qin De', and the emperor's favorite guqin is kept in the hall.

Lan Guiren's eyes lit up.

Concubine Xin took Lan Guiren's hand into the East Hall with a smile, and introduced the guqins hanging on the wall one by one, "Sister Lan, look, this is the Tang Qin 'Great Sage's Voice', Song Qin 'The Meaning Between Song and Stone', and Ming Qin. The qin 'Moon Dew bosom friend'...the Ming qins of all dynasties are there."

Lan Guiren looked at these zithers and couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

Concubine Xin hooked the corners of her lips slightly triumphantly, "It's nothing more than these, after all, they are kept by the emperor. Sister Lan, look at these four pianos again, but they were made by the emperor himself."

"These four zithers are: Xiangjiang Qiubi, Yingpeng Xianlai, Gao Qinshuangli, and Yunhai Empathy."

Lan Guiren's eyes lit up even more, and he stepped forward to take a closer look.

See that the inscription "Made by Tongshuwu in the autumn of the tenth year of Qianlong" is engraved on the piano.Lan Guiren this year is only 16 years old, and she was still a two or three-year-old child in the tenth year of Qianlong, so she couldn't help but wonder, "Butong Bookstore System"?
Concubine Xin nodded with a smile, and sighed softly, "Before the emperor ascended the throne, he used to study in the Butong Bookstore in Xiyuan. There were two old phoenix trees planted in front of the bookstore, and they stayed with each other. Later, one of the trees died, and the emperor recalled the past, so he went down The purpose is to make four zithers out of its wood, give each its name and write a poem: Autumn nights and spring dynasties lose their lovers, and the good birds that recognize their nests linger.

Lan Guiren was also stunned when he heard it, and his melancholy came up quietly, and he couldn't help but said fascinatedly, "Shuangtong stays together...the loss of a partner is painful, and the piano is the sound...the emperor is so affectionate."

Concubine Xin shrugged her shoulders, "That year was the year when the imperial concubine Huixian passed away. The imperial concubine Huixian passed away in the first month, and in the autumn of that year, the tung trees also withered one after another. Therefore, I heard people say that the emperor ordered the concubine to die. These four zithers have the meaning of mourning the concubine Huixian."

Nobleman Lan raised his eyebrows, "...Empress Xiaoxian died in the 13th year of Qianlong's reign, and the emperor did not see it like this. According to this, the emperor's heart is more important to the imperial concubine Huixian than empress Xiaoxian."

Concubine Xin laughed, "Otherwise, why would the emperor give the 'virtuous' to the noble concubine Huixian first, and ask Empress Xiaoxian to come on her own knees."
