Concubine, please respect yourself

Chapter 373 Peony
Three days before the spring equinox, Lu Ziyu moved from the Hua'an Hall to the newly built Hua'e Hall.

There have been rumors in the palace for a long time: the calyx is like Penglai, and the delicate fairy is hidden in the clouds.

It is said that the Calyx Hall is built like the Penglai Fairy Palace, and the person who should live in it seems to be Ling Bo Chanjuan.

This palace was ordered by His Majesty to be built exclusively for the imperial concubine and empress. It is vulgar to talk about a golden house hiding beauty, but with the unparalleled beauty of the imperial concubine, it should really be called the Immortal Palace Niluoshen.

Qin Tianjian not only calculated the date of moving the palace, but also planned when to move things.

Early in the morning, Lu Ziyu was woken up by Luo Ning, washed up in a daze, and then he was shoved into a sedan chair and carried towards the Huaca Temple.

The Calyx Hall is next to the Longyan Hall, not far from the Qinghua Hall.

The sedan chair swayed for a while, and stopped outside a red wall and glazed tiles.

The wide alley is full of fragrance, and the branches of crabapple mixed with pink and white protrude from the wall.

Looking up, the begonias in clusters are like a sea of ​​flowers.

Under the soft clouds, the spring breeze blows on the petals, and the fragrance falls all over the ground.

Lu Ziyu stepped up and down from the sedan chair, standing in front of the Huae Palace, she was in a daze.

The bricks and tiles, the trees and the scenery at the gate of this hall are all familiar to people.
Begonias in spring, colorful walls and green tiles.

"Your Majesty." Luo Ning was the first to come back to his senses, stepped forward and whispered in Lu Ziyu's ear, "Look at the scene outside the palace, but it seems to be somewhat similar to our Duke's Mansion?"

Yup!

Lu Ziyu's beautiful eyes opened slightly, and the eyes could not hide the look of astonishment.

No wonder Sixi stopped her and didn't let her come and take a look at the Huacaly Palace when it was being repaired. She had to wait until the day of moving to the palace to see the whole picture.

Blocking from the left and blocking from the right was originally the idea.

It has to be said that my master's little idea happened to be in her arms.

After entering the palace, after all, it is not the same as an ordinary married woman.

As a concubine, she can't run to the house frequently, and if she wants to go back to the house to have a look, she has to wait for Qin Tianjian to calculate a good day.

A year or so is good, if it continues like this for 20 years, then the feeling of missing my parents will become stronger and stronger.

Today, the repair of the gate of the Huae Temple is almost the same as that of Lu Guogong's mansion.She looked at it every day, but she could still recall the old scene.

Pushing open the door of the palace, you can see the courtyard full of flowers.

Xifu Begonias are surrounded by the red wall, the fragrance is overwhelming, and the buds are blooming.

The entire palace is not decorated with the grand and grand atmosphere, but the quietness and tranquility of the Qushui River in the south of the Yangtze River.

The pavilions, terraces and pavilions are all built on a winding green lake.

There are more than a dozen red white cranes beside the lake, catching fish, treading water, and smoothing their feathers. They look full of vitality and add agility.

"Your Majesty, this is the Fengqi Lake in the palace." Sixi stood aside, holding a whisk in his hands and said with some deep meaning, "This lake happens to be connected to Your Majesty's Longyan Palace."

Lu Ziyu raised his eyebrows, opened his lips and asked with a smile, "That is to say, if I want to go to Longyan Hall, I can also go by water?"

Just as Sixi nodded slightly, she heard the beauty say again.

"Then Your Majesty can sneak over here in the dead of night?"

Sixi's face froze, and she quickly waved her hands in embarrassment, "Our Majesty is a gentleman, how could he sneak here in the middle of the night."

Standing aside, Luo Ning rolled her eyes and whispered softly.

Not sneaking around, when her mother-in-law was not out of the pavilion, could it be that the marks on her body were really eaten by insects?
Lu Ziyu covered his lips and smiled lightly.

She knew that master's temperament well, and she was cold in front of others, always looking serious.Waiting for the two of them to be alone, once the door is closed, her clothes will not be messed up for an hour, and she will burn incense
However, my father is not strong enough, and he was probably teased by her.

"Your Majesty, let's go shopping elsewhere." Lu Ziyu's laughter made Sixi tremble, and that laughter seemed to be teasing her ignorance.

The two sides of the main hall of the Calyx Hall are full of rich brocade flowers.

Yao Huangwei Zi, Xiangyu, Black Oiran; Hua Erqiao, Luoyang Hong, Baixueta, Drunken Concubine Yang.
At a glance, there are big peonies in full bloom.

"Why are there only peonies and no other flowers?" Lu Ziyu asked suspiciously.

"Your Majesty said that there is only Peony Jiao in the world who is worthy of your empress." Sixi bowed her head respectfully.

The peony is the best of all flowers, and has the reputation of the king of flowers. His Majesty filled the Calyx Hall with peonies, which also secretly showed the status of Concubine Yuan in the harem.

Although she is a noble concubine now, she has already promised her successor position.

Sixi is a perceptive person, since he knew that the Ministry of Internal Affairs transplanted peonies in the Calyx Hall, he understood His Majesty's intentions.

"Elegant poets say that peonies are vulgar. It's because they pride themselves on being noble and won't appreciate them." Lu Ziyu leaned over and caressed a Luoyang red flower.

The purple-red petals reveal a faint streamer.

Peony, accompanied by the legend of rebirth after fire.

That year, Chang'an was buried by heavy snow.Emperor Wu wrote poems while drinking, and ordered all kinds of flowers to bud at night, and all the flowers obeyed his orders. Only the peonies obeyed the season and kept their pistils closed.

Seeing this, Emperor Wu was furious and demoted Peony to Chang'an, and burned it at the stake to force the flowers to bloom.

In the flames, the peony was scorched black, but the branches and leaves continued, and it was still proud in the severe cold.

In the coming year, the spring breeze will blow and regenerate, and the wind will pass by, and the flowers will bloom more abundantly.

Peony is actually not delicate at all, not weak.Under the glamorous beauty, the scorched bones are the sign of rebirth, not drifting with the tide, not losing one's heart.

Just like her, she is fearless when not in love, and turbulent when in love.

I give you beauty, I give you charm, I give you seduction, I give you stupidity; I give you love, I give you love, I give you sincerity, and I give you the rest of my life.
In her new life, she lived to the fullest, with twists and turns, tribulations, joys, sorrows and sorrows, all of which she got over.

This is enough!

"The garden is full of spring scenery, I really only love peonies." Lu Ziyu stared blankly at the delicate flower in his hand, as if through the stamens, she could see herself after the fire.

After walking around the entire Huae Temple in one breath, Lu Ziyu leaned on the imperial concubine's couch and felt a little tired.

Luo Ning pinched her shoulders for her, making her drowsy.

"It's not summer yet, why is the weather so dry today?" Lu Ziyu muttered.

"Your Majesty, did you sweat when you were shopping just now? Are you thirsty now?" Luo Ning raised his eyebrows and thought for a while, then said, "Why don't you serve a bowl of plum soup in the small kitchen?"

When Lu Ziyu heard this, he propped up the head of the couch with his hands and sat up happily, "It's better to have it iced, it can suppress dryness."

She used to like to eat ice. When she was in Lanyue Pavilion in the past, in summer, the crushed ice in the mansion was only for her to use. Any soup she drank had to be chilled before she could eat it.

"Your Majesty told me that the servants are not allowed to give you anything to eat ice." Luo Ning said with a serious expression, his eyes were serious.

Lu Ziyu glanced at Luo Ning, and said coquettishly, "What should I explain? You are mine, why do you obey his orders?"

Luo Ning was still unmoved after hearing this.

Lu Ziyu couldn't help it, his mouth suddenly became greedy again, so he could only act coquettishly, "So Luo Ning, you can go. Anyway, His Majesty is not here. You bring it quickly, and I will drink it in one gulp. Before we know it, don't we just--" get things done
The following words were interrupted by the sound of the door being pushed open.

"No, what?" The man's clear voice slowly came from outside.

The words were clearly spoken in a leisurely manner, but there was a sense of danger from the inside out, and she hurriedly stopped the chattering Mei Jiao Niang in the room.
　Maybe I am from Luoyang, so I have a soft spot for peonies
