Daiyu through the Red Mansions

Chapter 174 Twelve Zodiac Signs Make Playing Cards, Pretend to Die Hey

As I said last time, Concubine Wu Guifei always thought that Daiyu entered the palace to compete with her because of her dirty mind.He wanted to use Yuanchun as an opportunity to satirize Daiyu, not wanting to violate a taboo, and was almost punished by the empress to keep Yuanchun as a companion.

Full of wine and food, it is still early, how to spend the long night.The princess asked why not play games while everyone is interested, and everyone agreed.

Daiyu saw that the Crown Princess did not go back to the East Palace but wanted to pass the time, the fire of gossip suddenly arose in her heart and burned to the Crown Princess's boudoir. Jade.Seeing that the Crown Princess' expression was not right, Daiyu knew that she was Meng Lang, so she hurriedly explained:

"What I mean is, the night is long and there is no one to talk to relieve boredom. How to spend it. So I want to give my sister some gadgets. When my sister is bored, she can play with the maids." After finishing speaking, she only looked at the princess.It doesn't matter if you look at it, the face of the princess is getting redder.

This startled Daiyu and hurriedly said: "Sister, what's the matter with you? Do you want to pass on to the imperial physician?" Although the crown princess is a famous lady, she is not a novice. Naturally, she has heard of those things more or less. Lonely concubines in the deep palace compound will find some little eunuchs and maids to pass the time.

But after all, this is something in private. How could Daiyu, such a pure and pure lady, know such a shameful thing.Thinking about the Crown Princess, she couldn't sit still when being questioned by Daiyu, and she just gave Daiyu a look and was about to leave.Daiyu is not willing, she just pulls her back.The princess couldn't get away, her face turned even redder, she just shook her head and didn't speak.

At this time, the snow geese had rushed back.There were several court ladies following behind, each holding a large box in their hands.Daiyu smiled happily when she saw it: "Sister, look at the things I gave you and bring them here."

Although the Crown Princess was reluctant on the surface, she was also aroused with a trace of longing in her heart, so she just turned her head and took a sneak peek.Suddenly dumbfounded, it turned out that the box was not what I had imagined.

I saw Daiyu looked at the princess and smiled and said: "Sister, these are some small things that my sister collected before entering the palace. They can be used for entertainment or to develop intelligence." Push the big box in front of the princess.

The princess was stunned for a while, then took the box and opened it, and saw some strange-shaped things inside, she couldn't help looking at Daiyu in doubt, and said: "Sister, what is this thing, I seem to have seen it before, but I don't know what it is. It's different." Daiyu smiled and said, "There are some of these in the market, but they're not as exquisite. Some of them are newly developed by Mingyulou."

The Crown Princess nodded after hearing this, picked up a handful of colored glass balls and asked, "This glass bead, I think it's for playing checkers." Daiyu smiled slightly and said:

"Exactly. There are checkers, backgammon, mahjong tiles, playing cards, etc. in this box. Each toy comes with an instruction manual. In this way, as long as you follow the instructions, you will be able to get started soon. The playing cards this time are I like this newly developed toy, why don't we play with it." He said, staring at the princess with hope in his eyes.

The Crown Princess was feeling ashamed because she wanted to have a fork, so she would not object after hearing Daiyu's words, so she could take this opportunity to cover up her embarrassment.Then she nodded and said: "My sister has never seen such a card, I'm afraid I won't be able to play it." Then he took out a card Daiyu said from the box.

I saw a blooming red peony on the back of the playing card, which was so delicate and elegant.The four sides of the card are inlaid with silver hollow lace, and when turned to the front, there is a golden dragon in the cloud printed in the middle, and the two golden characters of Chenlong are written in the upper left and lower right corners of the dragon.

The Crown Princess was puzzled, so she drew another card, only to see that this card was exactly the same as the back of the card just now, but the pattern on the front was changed to a dignified, kind-hearted, beautiful woman in palace attire.Look at the top of this beautiful woman, but there are two words written in subordinate, Queen.The Crown Princess looked at Daiyu more and more suspiciously, Daiyu smiled and said:

"Sister, don't be confused. There are fifty cards in this deck. One king, one queen. There are 48 cards left, which are arranged in order on the 12th day of the Yuan Dynasty, and turned into four colors, purple, white, gold and green. It represents All things and all people in the world. This is the instruction manual, and my sister will know it at a glance." After speaking, he handed a piece of paper to the princess.

The princess took it and looked at it for a while, only to see that it said: "Worship the king, meet the queen, fight traitors, chameleon... and so on, there are several game names." Look at almost every name has detailed gameplay, the prince The concubine is naturally extremely intelligent, and she understood it after a long while.

The concubine looked at it for a while, and said with joy in her heart: "Sister, why didn't you bring such a fun thing earlier. This is great, you can use it for entertainment when you are free on weekdays, and sisters often get together to enhance friendship. Could it be any better?"

Daiyu smiled and said, "It's just made, and it's the first time my sister got it. I brought it with me when I entered the palace. I didn't expect my sister to like it so much, and my sister thought so too." A whole deck of cards was taken from the little box.

Daiyu put the entire card on the table and wiped it lightly, and the zodiac patterns of various colors and shapes were vividly displayed in front of several people one by one, looking very beautiful.When the princess saw a pair of beautiful eyes full of affection, her eyes widened, and her cherry mouth was shaped into an O shape.

Seeing the surprised expression of the Crown Princess, Daiyu laughed for a while.It's just a small deck of playing cards, which has been mutated. This ancient man is really pitiful.Thinking of the boring night life of her old friend who went to bed after dinner without lighting the lamp at night, Daiyu couldn't help shaking her head and sighing.

Today's Daiyu's soul and temperament have been neutralized with the temperament of Daiyu in the Red Mansion, but she doesn't have the wildness of her previous life that woke people up in the middle of the night: "Pretend to be dead, get up!"

But even though he has been in the Red Mansion for many years, he is still not quite used to the life of the ancients.Then one after another, I gradually took out the little things that I used for entertainment in my previous life, and slowly took them out for my own entertainment without affecting the changes of the times.

She was warned by Fairy Jinghuan that she must not do things that change the fate of others easily.Otherwise, according to her personality of a woman in her previous life, she would have turned the world of red chambers upside down, and she wouldn't have lived such a dull and aggrieved life.

Seeing that the princess also likes this kind of toy, Daiyu is naturally happy in her heart.Thinking of the huge amount of money rushing towards her, Daiyu couldn't help showing a sweet smile.
