Kangxi Harem Ⅰ: Green Years

Chapter 6 ([-]) Everyone has their own thoughts on the first night in the deep palace
[Ripples rise in the center of the palace, some people are happy and some are worried;]

[The full moon should be the day of reunion, from now on parting with relatives and love. 】

Gai Rong'er sat by the window and watched everyone go to bed and lie down one after another, but she didn't feel sleepy at all, so she walked to the door lightly, opened the door and walked out, took a long breath, feeling much more relaxed, there was no sleep in that room. The big room where people are talking always feels a little stuffy. Looking at the place where they live, it is a small courtyard with two entrances. The gate of the palace courtyard has been tightly locked. Rong'er doesn't know where this is in the palace. They It should be living in the large wing room on the east side of the courtyard, and there seems to be a big wing room on the west side. I don't know if they live in the same room as them, and they are also selected palace ladies.Gai Rong'er went to the stone table by the courtyard and sat gently on the stone bench, looked up at the sky, it was around the fifteenth day, and the moon is far away today, "It's hard to be reunited on a full moon night, and the birds will enter the golden cage from now on." .” Rong’er smiled, teasing herself secretly.If you step into this palace gate, you may not be able to return home for ten years.

Gai Rong'er was in deep thought when she saw the door of the west room opened with a creak, and a woman in light green clothes walked out slowly from the room. The woman in green clothes gently closed the door, turned around and raised her eyes to see Gai Ronger, who was on the stone bench beside the porch opposite, saw the woman in green smile slightly, walking slowly towards the stone table.

Gai Ronger looked carefully under the moonlight, and it was the girl whose name was called out at the roll call earlier. If I remembered correctly, it seemed to be Wang Jingzhi.

The woman in green walked up to her and asked, "Can I sit down?"

"Girl please take a seat." Gai Ronger said with a smile.

"My name is Wang Jingzhi, what's your name?" the girl asked politely.

"Gai Ronger, why doesn't Miss Jingzhi take a break?" Gai Ronger felt a little cordial to the girl's politeness.

"It's the first time I'm separated from my parents, and it's hard to fall asleep. The spring breeze hits the night. Jingzhi thinks that the air in the courtyard at night should be very comfortable, so she goes out for a walk. Miss Rong'er can't sleep, too?" Gai Ronger learned from Wang Jingzhi's conversation. Judging by the judges, this girl should be a well-educated girl, quite ladylike.

"Well, yes,' the spring breeze hits the night and the courtyard is quiet, and the green shadow is quietly making up." Rong'er replied lightly with a smile.

"What a talent, Miss Rong'er's poem pair has shown Miss Rong'er's talent, if Jingzhi's guess is correct, this pair has two meanings." Wang Jingzhi said with a smile.

"Oh, what does Miss Jingzhi say?" Gai Ronger looked at Wang Jingzhi with a smile and asked.

"One of the meanings: the surface meaning of this verse is that the spring breeze quietly blows through all things, and the green color is accompanied by the spring breeze, quietly dyeing everything green, as if painting a green makeup. It's a good pair."

Gai Ronger asked with a smile: "What about the second one?"

"The second meaning: Ms. Rong'er used Jingzhi's reason for walking out, 'the spring breeze hits the night and the courtyard is quiet', and the 'green shadow' in "Lv Ying Quietly and Makeup" should refer to Jing Zhi, respect Zhi is wearing a green dress today, "and makeup" should be the same as "encounter", the word "rong" should be the same pronunciation as Rong'er girl, and "and makeup" should mean meeting Rong'er girl. So the hidden meaning of this pair The implication is that Jingzhi couldn't fall asleep on a spring night, and when he went out for a walk, he unexpectedly met Miss Rong'er." Wang Jingzhi paused, "I don't know if Jingzhi understands it right?"

Rong'er smiled and nodded: "It's not difficult for Rong'er to compose this poem, it's all due to the occasion, and it's even more rare for Miss Jingzhi to understand the hidden meaning in this sentence."

Jingzhi smiled and shook her head: "Miss Rong'er, why should you be modest? With Miss Rong'er's talent and appearance, I believe she will definitely be liked by the emperor."

"Miss Jingzhi is flattering you. How can it be so easy to get the emperor's favor in this palace? Miss Jingzhi is beautiful and talented. If Rong'er has a chance to be favored, wouldn't Miss Jingzhi have a greater chance." Gai Ronger smiled whispered back.

Wang Jingzhi looked down at an ornament in his hand, and suddenly lowered his voice, "Jingzhi doesn't expect to be favored."

"Uh, this is strange? Which girl who enters the palace doesn't want to be favored by the emperor? Is it possible that Miss Jingzhi is willing to be a slave? It seems that the girl has never suffered since she was a child." Rong Er asked puzzledly, borrowing the moonlight I saw the girl holding a jade pendant in her hand.

Wang Jingzhi stared at Yupei without answering, finally smiled and said, "It's getting late, let's go back to rest early. Jingzhi will leave first, and Miss Rong'er will also rest early." While talking, the girl got up and said goodbye, Go to the west wing,
Looking at the back of the girl going away, and thinking about the melancholy in the girl's eyes just now, Gai Rong'er thought that what she said should be the truth?Why doesn't she want to be favored?Gai Rong'er was puzzled.Gai Rong'er knew that to be chosen by the emperor and to serve the most honorable man in the world, it was a blessing for a woman, and it was also an honor for her family. Since she had been chosen as a court lady, from the heart she Of course, she hopes to be selected, but she knows that whether she can be selected or not can do nothing for her now, everything is just up to the fate, she is lucky to have it, but not to her fate, so she is also indifferent, but this name Why doesn't the girl named Wang Jingzhi want to be selected?Gai Ronger was really curious.

But looking at the girl's calm temperament, she was somewhat similar to herself, so she gained a lot of goodwill.The wind in the spring night is really cool, Gai Ronger walked to the East Wing...
