Little lucky girl from the peasant family: Queen Splendid

Chapter 332 There Are Rabbit Eyes Everywhere in Kyoto

Although it is the beginning of winter, the imperial garden is still full of golden chrysanthemums, trembling slightly when the cold wind blows, but there is also a kind of bleak beauty.

On one side of the flower garden, one large and two small tents were built with tulle, and the three tents were filled with tables and chairs.The maids in green shirts and dresses smiled and sent white plates, which contained various fruits from Hainan, as well as dim sum biscuits that just came out of the oven in the morning, all made in the shape of flowers, which is interesting and refreshing tempting.

Many officials and wives brought their children and grandchildren with them. The children were already curious and active, and when they saw these fruits and snacks, they couldn't bear to swallow their saliva.Even the prudent and polite children who are taught on weekdays can't help but glance at the plate more than once.

And in the large flower garden in front of the gauze tent, another high platform was built, and the curtain was covered in front of the platform, so it was impossible to see what was hidden inside.

Just when everyone was extremely curious, the weird queen whom they had talked about countless times finally appeared.

There is no amazing appearance, no gorgeous dresses and jewelry, but maybe it is Ding Wei's overall style, or the calmness in the eyebrows and eyes, which makes them get up quickly and straighten their clothes, and finally respectfully lay on the ground.

"Empress Empress, thousand years old, thousand years old!"

"Everyone is flat!"

Ding Wei walked through the crowd holding Gu Momo's hand, and finally sat near the largest gauze tent, on the main seat, and waited to accept Gu Nanny's hint before asking everyone to get up.

Everyone respectfully kowtowed again before getting up.There are two four or five-year-old children who still remember to help their mother when they got up, and the rest are older, but they still need maids to serve them.

Ding Wei smiled when she saw it, "I wanted to invite all the wives into the palace to sit down for a while, but my health has been delayed until now."

"Thank you for your love. The old woman often wants to enter the palace to pay her respects, but she is afraid of disturbing her cleanliness. Now that the empress speaks, the old woman will have the cheek to bother her all the time."

Mr. Dong Ge's wife is a noble daughter of the scholarly family of the times. She has been married into the Dong family for many years and has both sons and daughters. She is also very respectable among the officials and wives.

It just so happened that she was also the oldest, so she was the first to respond right now.The rest of the officials' wives found the "tune" and began to flatter them one after another.

"Your Majesty, please take good care of your phoenix body. Your Majesty and His Royal Highness still need to take care of you."

"That's right, the name of the crown prince's intelligence is known all over the world. This is all thanks to you. The concubines still want to hear the mother teach the scriptures to teach children. If the bad son in the concubine's family looks like the prince, the whole family will ask for it." Recite Anida Buddha!"

Hearing this, Ding Wei felt it was funny, An Ge'er was only three years old, so he could tell that he was extremely intelligent, but as a mother, she naturally liked her son to be praised by others.

So the smile on her face became three points thicker, and she waved her hands and said, "You ladies are absurd, but it's just children who are naughty, and you can see their intelligence."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the bored children, big and small, and said, "Let's talk about the parents' slander, so don't restrict the children to be here too. In the Guangming Palace, I have some small gadgets placed by people. , why don’t the maids send the children to play with the prince.”

Everyone had the intention of selling their own children and grandchildren today, and hearing that the empress was so happy, naturally there was nothing they could do, so they hurriedly ordered a few words and asked the maids to follow them to serve them.

The children in every family are baby bumps, and Ding Wei motioned for the prudent Angelica to take care of them.

Without the children on the side, the women seemed to be a little more casual, and when they saw the stage in the middle of the flower garden, they asked, "Your Majesty, is there a new play?"

"Yeah, to be honest, it's boring for my concubine to wait at home, and I've watched almost all the dramas. As soon as I heard that the empress had arranged a new drama, I looked forward to it day and night."

A young servant's wife, with a sharp mouth, made everyone laugh.

Ding Wei also laughed, and said, "It just so happens that Bengong is not interested in going to the theater alone. Let the troupe perform a performance today, and everyone will join in the fun."

After finishing speaking, she waved her hand to Forsythia who was guarding by the flowerbed.

Lian Qiao came to the stage in the flower garden in a flash, and soon the curtain in front of the stage was slowly opened, revealing a house made of painted wooden boards, an old employee in the house was trying to persuade his daughter, But the daughter looked unconvinced, which is a classic and familiar scene. . .

When the sun was westward, the banquet in the palace finally dispersed.A group of officials and wives were holding handkerchiefs in their hands and rubbing their red eyes like rabbits, and they returned home in a carriage.

As a result, the high-end courtyards of every family suddenly became lively.

In Dong Ge's old house, the old lady was surrounded by people at the moment, the children, grandchildren, daughters-in-law and maids were all in a panic.Handing tea to this one, and handing over a warm wet handkerchief to that one, they were all extremely worried.

"Mom, why are you crying? But... But that one made things difficult for you?"

"Oh, the old lady is so old, how can the empress scold her?"

Fortunately, the old man and his children and grandchildren remained calm and asked, "Let's explain clearly what happened first."

The old lady took a sip of tea, wiped her eyes with a warm wet handkerchief, then waved her hands and said, "Don't get me wrong, my eyes are red from crying because the new play was so good. It's not because the Queen The empress scolded, on the contrary, the empress empress treats me as an old woman very close."

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and finally became curious again, what kind of new play is it that can make the always strong-tempered old lady cry and swell her eyes?

"Mom, since the new play is so good, why are your eyes swollen from crying?"

The eldest daughter-in-law of the old lady has always been steady, and asked while beating the old lady's shoulders.

The old lady didn't know what to think of, and her eyes were red again, but she refused to explain clearly.

"Your Majesty said that this new drama will be published in the future, and you will know after watching it."

Mr. Dong Ge waited for a while but did not see his wife talking about his grandson entering the palace to study, so he coughed dryly, "Brother Yu has been selected by the queen, when can I enter the palace to accompany the prince to study?"

The old lady was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and finally blushed a little, and replied in a low voice, "Brother Yu was sent by the empress to play with the prince, and I don't know the result."

When Dong Ge heard that his wife had forgotten such an important matter in order to listen to the play, he stared angrily, and wanted to scold him, but it was not good to do so in front of his children and grandchildren.He could only hold back his anger and ordered the servant girl to find the little grandson who changed clothes in his yard.

It's a pity that although Brother Yu is smart, he loves to play after all. Hearing his grandfather's inquiries, he only remembered that the fruits and snacks in the palace were delicious, and he almost hurt his nose when he played on the slide with the prince. . .

Dong Ge was helpless, his eyelids couldn't ask anything, so he could only resign himself to fate.

This kind of situation was staged in almost all the women's homes who went to the palace to listen to the opera, and naturally they didn't ask for an answer.

At this moment, everyone in the palace is also talking about daytime affairs.

Although the maids, big and small, walked around Yongfu Palace all day long, they only glanced at them a few times when rehearsing new plays.I only thought that the actors and actresses looked very good and had good voices, but I never thought that after watching it from beginning to end today, I cried so much that tears flowed like rivers.

Don't look at Forsythia who is usually aggressive and eccentric, but she is the most soft-hearted.The stage in the Imperial Garden had been withdrawn for several hours, and her eyes were still swollen.

Occasionally, thinking of the scene in the ending, when two butterflies flew out of the grave, both of them were flying, she still choked up and muttered, "It's so pitiful!"

As for Yunying and the others, they are not much better, they also have red circles around their eyes.On the other hand, Gu Nai may see things in the world much more difficultly, so she is not so easy to be seduced, she smiled and blamed a few girls, "It's just a play, do you take it seriously? Which good girl will go to a man's academy?" Drill in!"

The girls knew that Nanny Gu's words were reasonable, but they were still willing to believe that there is such a beautiful and firm love in the world.

Ding Wei was fiddling with the abacus and counting today's "harvests," she said with a beaming smile after receiving the abacus account book, "It seems that new plays still have to be lined up. The donations of these officials and wives today are more than 1000 taels." , enough to sew two thousand sets of thick cotton clothes."

At the end, he thought of another thing and said, "Those naughty boys who entered the palace today, have you ever seen them?"

Seeing the master's appearance, everyone forgot what the boss said just now, and they all opened their mouths to respond.

Yun Ying was the first to say, "I see that the little grandson of the Dong family is honest and intelligent. Before the youngest son of Liu Shilang's family fell down the slide, he was the first to help him up. .”

"I think the young master of Liu Shilang's family is very nice. He didn't cry when he fell so badly, but smiled happily and cutely."

"There is also the eldest grandson of Zhang Shangshu's family. He writes well and has good hands. He is playing with the little master building blocks and having fun."

Previously, there was lively singing on the stage in the garden, and the old and young girls took turns to take care of the children.Naturally, I also take into account the temperament of the children, and each has their own preferences, but I have to say that among the dozen or so children, there are indeed four or five who are very good.

Ding Wei asked Yunying to write down the names of the children, and after discussing with Gong Zhiming that night, she sent someone to deliver the order the next day.

Needless to say, those who received the will were naturally overjoyed, while those who lost the election were at a loss, not understanding what was wrong with their children.

Some irritable people have already pulled their children and grandchildren to teach them a lesson. The distressed women rushed to protect them, and they were jumping around for a while, which was very lively.

But this is not so much, the most lively are the several major theater troupes in Kyoto.

Ever since a new opera was introduced in the palace, several major opera troupes have been rehearsing almost day and night, and soon spread the poignant love story of the empress throughout the capital.

If someone says that they don’t know what kinds of brocades are popular in the market, or which teahouses are popular, but they must know a new play that is famous in Kyoto. It is also a story about the death of both true loves.

As a result, women with swollen eyes from crying can be seen everywhere in Kyoto, as well as men who gloat.

What's more, all the more handsome scholars in the academy will be suspected of their gender. (Just get off the train, code a chapter first, and make up the debt later.)
