The Imperial Heavenly Supervisor chose a good time and auspicious month, and when the sky was bright and clear, Yun Fenghuang got up.
After applying the make-up, she wore a high bun with a cloud in her hair and was wearing a flower crown. She had a Luan bird holding a pearl in her hand and walking in red gold. She had a hollow gourd engraved with Luan bird and peony and red gold earrings. She had a collar full of gold and jade. Amid the aura of jewels, a group of people gathered around her. After checking that everything was correct, Zhu E and four other people were waiting on her to wear a complete set of Tiangong brocade attire.
The dress is belted with double hanging mutton-fat jade flower-studded palace sash, red gold silk engraved with luan birds holding patterned aromatherapy balls, and tied with pomegranate red concentric knotted tassels. The crimson-soled embroidered luan, bird and cloud pattern and gold-threaded pointed-toe shoes loomed at the bottom of the skirt. The tips of the shoes were sewn with pearls as big as pigeon eggs. Even in the dark, they were filled with soft pearlescent light.
The sixteen-year-old concubine still has a youthful look, but the grand attire dilutes the childishness, and she feels graceful, luxurious, and majestic.
Xie Hengyu, who came back from Yi Xing'en and the Liang family, and Jiang Lai looked at each other for a moment, and directed the palace people to adjust their skirts and accessories. At the end, they couldn't help but burst into tears: "Back then in the Northland At that time, I felt that the empress had profound blessings and deserved a peaceful and joyful life, but I did not expect that the empress had such blessings."
At that time, they felt that the little mistress was born as the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, with a strong and doting biological mother, many brothers, virtuous and docile sisters-in-law, and a fiancé who had been engaged since childhood. It truly combines all the beautiful things that a woman in the world can imagine into one body.
But he never expected that Yun Fenghuang would one day walk into the palace city, among the four concubines, who were deeply favored by the emperor.
Looking back at the past, especially the time when Xie Fenghuan's accident happened, I felt an unreal feeling.
However, Yun Fenghuang looked at the bronze mirror and held the emerald crown inlaid with precious bats, butterflies, and flowers toward the crown, but he was not very satisfied. He thought to himself that after all, it was not as beautiful as the phoenix crown.
The beautiful phoenix crown and bright moon are worn on Queen Ji's hair bun. The queen is also dressed in gorgeous clothes. Her pair of phoenix eyes look sharply, looking dignified and proud.
She watched the young virtuous concubine slowly walking towards her. Her skirt was flowing, her pendants jingled, and she was surrounded by pearls and emerald green. The eyes of the Shaoxiu woman were as bright as paint, and her eyes followed the rules. She paused briefly on Zhai Yi, then raised her head slightly. First, there is a misunderstanding with Zhonggong.
Isn't that rude
At a moment's notice, Concubine Xian became more and more rude and looked at the phoenix crown on top of her hair in the middle palace.
There was undisguised interest in his eyes.
and inevitable ambition.
Empress Ji calmly let her covet her. After a moment, she followed the rules and took a step forward, signaling the concubine to kneel down and accept the title.
Li Si and Pian Liu's articles are rarely used in Su Yue, and they are quite awkward to read, but the queen can recite them fluently. There is no emotion in her eyes, but her heart unexpectedly thinks of her and Chun Jia's wedding. Registered.
She was very young at that time, for example, Ming's Concubine Xian was only one year old.
Born with nobility, she was cultivated according to the standards of maternal rites from an early age. She also knew whether she would definitely marry into the royal family and preside over the Sixth Palace. Ji's carefully selected Xiaozong heir in the clan had his hair tied at the same age as her. He was a handsome young man with a gentle temperament and graceful manners. It was clear that Empress Ji had not been tempted by him.
As for whether the dowry was arranged day and night, the family was finally chosen.
The throbbing of a young girl's love for spring began in a vague way and ended quietly. No one except herself and a few close attendants knew about it.
Adhering to the elegance and nobility of the middle palace, learning all kinds of tricks from the elders of the two generations of the main palace... Then watching Chunjia favoring Concubine Yue, watching Concubine Shu's designs step into the heart of the emperor, watching other concubines vying for intrigues, she has always been Whether he is aloof, watching with a cold eye, coordinating and instigating for the family's interests, turning clouds and rain in the six palaces, and making light of it.
Do you regret it
Ji Lingzi asked herself if she didn't regret it.
If there is no family queen, she will not be able to take her turn, and compared to the deep-minded and ambitious Chunjia, the family is more reliable.
The most important thing is that she clearly knows that Chunjia doesn't like her.
I didn't like it from the beginning, I never liked it.
So why did she ask for such a person to betray the family and be a lowly person
How about occasionally seeing Yuan Yuniang and Yun Fenghuang, the concubines jumping around in the east relying on the emperor's favor? They are lively and wanton. Even though they all have their own feelings that are difficult to calm down, they have also experienced hearty regrets and regrets. , Ji Lingzi will also be a little bit disappointed.
After following the rules for a long time, you will inevitably want to indulge once in a while.
But the long-term restraint suppressed her consciousness.
From treating each other like guests to treating each other like ice, the Queen and Chunjia had long since run out of things to say.
If she didn't envy Yun Fenghuang's imperial favor, she would envy the concubine's strength and ease in front of the family.
Of course, Empress Ji was also Minghong. Was it because Yun Fenghuang had a bright moon and she had never relied on Xie? It was because Xie relied heavily on her.
So to be fair, those melancholy moments are a bit hypocritical.
Things in this world are inherently difficult to have both ways.
Isn't it natural for her to enjoy the benefits of becoming the legitimate daughter of the Ji family and to be controlled and controlled by the Ji family
For example, what Concubine Xian said in front of Mrs. Xie was true, but behind the scenes, there was no trace of her own troubles since entering the palace.
... The concubine ceremony ended calmly, and there was no congratulatory banquet afterwards.
It was held at the Xuanqing Palace. Empress Ji showed up honorably and had a drink before leaving.
Yunfeng Huangluanrong sent her to the door to say goodbye, then returned to the banquet to accept the flattery and congratulations of the concubines.
To her surprise, Mrs. Chunke, whom she had not seen for a long time, actually came and toasted her before Gu Zhen could do it. After Luo Hanyi and Ouyang Fulu were demoted to the ninth concubine, Yun Fenghuang's east position was The person with the highest status was Gu Zhen, who was beaten back from the Yingfei to Mrs. Yaoning.
Mrs. Chunke, Yuan Niang's wife, had been checking the Huzhu Palace, and everyone had excluded her by default. That time, she even took the initiative to toast the new concubine without telling her that she was here. That was really surprising, and she even Regardless of Concubine Xian's intimidation, they all whispered to each other, so much so that even Gu Zhen was not angry. Yuan Yuniang's move seemed to place her in front of her.
"Sister Yuan is finally well. The Empress Dowager, Dongzi's loving mother, can be relieved." Yun Fenghuang was also a little surprised, but he drank the wine she offered with a smile.
Although it was customary for Mrs. Chunke to cause trouble or not, in Concubine Xian's view, there was nothing to be afraid of because of that person's rank. There was no such thing as the Qingqing Palace, so what could she not dare to receive if he dared to come
When she said that, she was mentally prepared for Mrs. Chunke to shut up or make some mischief.
However, Yuan Yuniang said calmly: "The empress dowager, the loving mother, is very concerned about her virtuous concubine and sister."
She was nearly ten years older than Yun Fenghuang, and she was not particularly good-looking. She had been through a lot of hardships in those two years, and the pain of losing her son was a huge blow. So much so that even after spending those confinement months behind closed doors, she still had a few spots in the corners of her eyes. The fine lines cannot be covered even by applying powder, showing the haggardness of the vicissitudes of life.
On the other hand, the newly promoted concubine is as beautiful as a flower, her skin is as radiant as snow, her hair is as black as sandalwood, her lips are as red as blood, and her attire is radiant and full of energy.
When she called out "Sister Xian Fei", Yun Fenghuang responded with a smile, but all the concubines felt unspeakable sadness.
Since ancient times, beauties are like famous generals. One general's achievements can lead to thousands of bones. The road from the palace to Yanfu Palace and Qingci Palace is not full of fragrant bones and full of fragrant souls.
Of course, as the current victor, Yun Fenghuang would not feel that kind of sadness and resentment. She held the wine cup and said a few words to Yuan Niang. Seeing that the man had no intention of causing trouble, she turned her attention away. Force, greet others.
After a busy month that month, Xuanqing Palace was very tired in Dongdu. When Chunjia came over in the evening, Yun Fenghuang had just finished bathing and was leaning on the couch while letting someone wring her long hair.
The emperor didn't let anyone pass the news when he came in, so he happened to see Concubine Xian dozing off little by little, and the servants who were serving her couldn't help but yawn. He couldn't help but smile, waved his legs to let people retreat, and took it himself. The handkerchief was wiped for her.
Didn't he have a lot of experience in serving others? The bottom of his leg accidentally hit a little hard, which hurt Yun Fenghuang. She woke up immediately, looked back, and leaned over: "Bidong is here?"
His voice was different from usual. It was muted and soft after a nap, making it look particularly charming.
Chunjia lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and said with a smile: "If you have a good confinement tomorrow, I will naturally come to congratulate me."
"Will I have a good confinement tomorrow?" Yun Fenghuang smiled and turned around to touch his cheek. His tone was lazy and arrogant, "Your confinement from the east is not a good confinement."
Chunjia smiled and said that she was the best at sweet words: "Coax me when I see the moon."
Yun Fenghuang simply turned around and faced him. He stretched out his legs and tugged at the skirt of his clothes. He pointed at his well-defined chest and said with a half-smile but not a smile: "I'm not coaxing you, but who am I going to coax?"
"Nothing the ruthless concubine says makes sense." Chunjia grabbed her leg, which was starting to become dishonest, and said with a smile, "Don't make trouble, my hair is not wrung out. If you look carefully, I will have a headache tomorrow."
How could Yun Fenghuang be such an obedient person
Not only did he not listen, he became even more excited. He stretched out his legs to untie the jade belt around his waist, and said slyly: "I have a headache, would you like to see me?"
Chunjia couldn't laugh or cry and said: "I don't come very often? There are not as many people coming to my place as many other people come to my place."
"Is it because the eldest prince and Zhaoqing are in the same relationship as me? Your Majesty cherishes the emperor's heir very much. He often comes to Huanhua Palace and doesn't even say anything to the harem." Mingyue's concubines all toasted to Yun Fenghuang. She had to drink during such a confinement period. Even though the wine she drank was fruity, it was not strong enough and she couldn't hold it back. After all the socializing, she was still a little drunk.
At this moment, his drunken eyes were hazy, he lit the emperor's chest, and said in a sweet and soft voice, "However, the second prince and the third prince have already landed, and it is enough to be raised by the Holy Mother and the Queen Mother. Come to the east, there will be more emperors born in the east. When the time comes, , If you continue to stay in Huanhua Palace, you will not be able to cause trouble?"
"I can only hope that I will be in trouble, so that I can make Bi Dong feel more distressed."
Chunjia pinched her cheek and said disapprovingly: "The ruthless concubine was drunk and said stupid things. How could she expect something bad from her?"
Yun Fenghuang muttered something, but he didn't listen and asked, but the concubine leaned towards him... Chunjia held her Dongba and looked at it carefully, but she was too tired to bear it, so she just fell asleep. .
"It's time to be more polite." The emperor sighed, twisted the tip of her nose, changed her position, wrung her long hair, and placed her on the bed again.
