Concubine Raiders: Rebirth As a Queen

Chapter 28: Flower viewing feast

Lin Xiuye's injustice caused everyone to immediately notice his existence, and their eyes were focused on him. Lin Xiuye ​​is considered to be a lesser famous in Beijing, and he is also very famous.

"Oh, Lord Qian is here too!" A young master who was elegantly dressed came up from the pavilion and saw Lin Xiuye ​​greet him.

Gradually, more people surrounded the pavilion. People who knew Lin Xiuye ​​greeted each other, and then returned to normal chatting and laughing in groups.

"Today, Hundred Flowers Girl, do you think it is Yang Lingyun, the daughter of Princess Huayuan?" a young lady suddenly asked everyone.

Princess Huayuan’s husband was a famous general of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Unfortunately, when Yang Lingyun was only five years old, he died on the battlefield. The emperor dubbed him as a high-ranking general of hussars. As a result, Princess Huayuan received more respect from the royal family.

Lin Xiuye ​​was in the corner of the pavilion talking and laughing with a few well-connected senior officials. Hearing what the young lady said, all of them looked over there with interest.

Each has its own opinions, and everyone discusses in a word and expresses their own opinions. Yang Lingyun is high-spirited, cold and arrogant, and she doesn't bother to talk to others. At most, she met a certain prince's son, such a distinguished super product, and it was even more mysterious.

If this year's Hundred Flowers Girl is still Yang Lingyun, according to the respect received by the Huayuan County lord, it is rumored that the emperor will designate her as the county lord this year.

"I don't think it is necessarily." Lin Xiuye ​​took a step forward, standing in the middle of the crowd, and said. Everyone looked at Lin Xiuye ​​and listened with their eyes wide open. Lin Xiuye ​​was also happy to stand in the center and say to everyone, "Hundred Flowers Girls, this is an annual thing. I think most of it is to encourage and recognize outstanding young ladies. Outstanding woman out of the capital."

Lin Xiuye ​​turned his head and looked at Shen Lingyang again, and said, "Miss Shen's family is one of the most outstanding women in our capital. She won the title of "Hundred Flowers Girl" twice when she was only thirteen. The Hundred Flowers Girl is not fixed, every year. It will be given to different people. Last year it was Yang Lingyun, but this year I don’t know who it is."

Yang Lingyun treats them with dignity and arrogance, and there are often young ladies who are not pleasing to the eye, so some people say, "Ling Yang is the most outstanding talented woman in our capital, and her name is obvious to all. Last year, Yang Lingyun was better than that one painting, the scene of the painting. Soldiers, the scenery is lonely. The artistic conception is poignant, the wind is blank, why the grass is green, who does she want to insinuate with this kind of rainy night war against the lonely city?"

"Isn't it! She just wanted to mention General Huqi, the emperor was so soft-hearted, thinking of his father, and had to give it to her." Another young lady pursed her mouth and replied, because the pavilion is usually closer. His good friends are all people in the same circle, and my father is also a group of friends in North Korea.

Even if one or two are not very close, they are definitely not Yang Lingyun's friends or political opponents with unequal fathers. Their circles are similar, and their views are basically consistent.

"Hu Pingluo purple sweat, Broken Yecheng Xiqiu Yuetuan.

? Ming Chi Xing Chi seals the sword and resigns to take Loulan overnight. She also inscribed such a poem on her painting, can Hundred Flowers not give it to her? I still want the county owner this year! "A young lady remembered that after returning home last year, her mother hinted at the reason why Yang Lingyun won the Hundred Flowers Girl. Now it seems that the Hundred Flowers Girl was completely robbed by Yang Lingyun.

"Have you heard that too? My mother also said that if she gets the Hundred Flower Girl this year, she will really be named the county head." They found sympathy, and you talked about it.

Shen Anyan looked at a pavilion in the distance, and Yang Lingyun in the pavilion was sitting and looking at the lake, her expression was really indifferent and high in the legend, just like the snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains. Wearing a faint goose yellow dress, covered with moonlight silvery white gauze. The palace lady on the side served her tea, she raised her proud head, did not look at the palace lady, her eyes were not stained with dust.

What a famous lady.

In other pavilions or on the lake, a group of noble princes or young ladies are standing three to five, all talking and laughing to pass the time, each group has its own story, laughing and cursing,

A voice dragged Shen Anyan's gaze back to the distance.

"Ladies and princes, please go back with you, the empress is already awake." It was the vowel of the aunt in charge of Kunning Palace, calling everyone to go back. Everyone stood up and walked to Kunning Palace. Then everyone followed their mother and walked from Dongnuan Pavilion to the main hall of Kunning Palace.

The palace lady led in, and the luxury in front of them made everyone's eyes shine brightly. The floor of the fine jade paved in Kunning Palace shines with warm light, and there seems to be a mist covering the unreal palace in the distance. On the eaves carved from sandalwood, the phoenix is ​​spreading its wings, and the floating roof is carved from blue tiles. The wall panels stacked with jade and stone, a huge palace at the end of a straight road slowly sinks along with the jade steps. Crossing the curtain embroidered with phoenix with gold thread, is the place for everyone to sit down and talk.

Across a layer of curtains made of eight-treasure glass beads, the queen was already sitting on it. The huge twelve-opening screen behind the queen, carved with lifelike dragon patterns, faces the phoenix on the palace.

"See Empress Empress, Empress Empress Jin An."

Wearing a crimson-red gold and silver silk Luan bird embroidered phoenix pattern, the bottom of the skirt is embroidered with peonies in full bloom. The skirt sags lightly, dragging more than three feet. The outer cover is a golden silk light gauze tulle, and the wide sleeves have auspicious clouds.

The queen wore a purple gold and phoenix crown, which was enough to see that after a very serious preparation, the ten thousand strands of green silk were combed into a gorgeous and complicated strand of deer buns, and the hairpins of red gold and rubies were decorated with more brilliance. With gold tassels hanging down his shoulders, a nine-tailed phoenix hairpin is dignified. The makeup is the full makeup of the palace makeup, the red lips are lightly, and the peony-shaped print is outlined on the forehead, which is just right.

"Flat body, give it a seat." The queen has a graceful voice, a dignified smile on her face, and there is not much emotional fluctuation.

At this moment, he got up and looked up and found that there were already several concubines sitting inside.

"The purpose of grabbing the autumn banquet is to make everyone a good sign for the second half of the year. Since they are here, you don't have to be so restrained. They are monarchs and ministers on weekdays. Today, they are friends." The queen sat on the head, kindly. Talking to everyone.

In fact, the palace is not as cold-blooded and rigid as outsiders believe and exaggerate, but there are more women, and the scheming and struggle will always be more terrifying than those in the opera. The emperor was in front of him, not to mention that he could not be spoiled, and as the daughters of important ministers, they were often easily urged by family members, and the concubines were all clever people.

"Thank you Queen," everyone responded.

The aunt of Kunning Palace's aunt, vowel and aunt let the court ladies serve tea, and soon everyone was there. The ladies and the concubines had a conversation, and the queen said that everyone should enjoy the new varieties this fall.

The queen was in front, leading the crowd to the imperial garden, and saw Jiamu Long onion, with strange flowers shining, and a clear stream in the distance, twisting and swiftly cascading from the depths of the flowers and trees under the rock gaps. The north side is flat and wide, with flying buildings inserted into the space on both sides, carved and embroidered with sills, white stones are fences, surrounded by pools, stone bridges with three harbors, animal faces and pavilions on the bridge.

A pavilion for people to rest sits in the middle of the imperial garden. It is luxurious and huge and is no different from an open-air palace. The pillars supported by the side are carved with this gold and pearl embossed pattern, and the cumbersome pattern shows the majestic and majestic atmosphere of the rest pavilion. There are no obstructions in the frontal view, allowing people to see this huge imperial garden.

The queen led everyone to the imperial garden. The imperial garden was full of exotic flowers and plants, which was very bright and beautiful, and it was known as a place to visit. There are also 16 flowers and trees, which are tall and handsome. At this time in early autumn, the wind is moving flowers, thousands of flowers, and several layers of ground.

Rao was a noblewoman of an official family, a prince of a family, and aristocratic ladies were shocked, and they talked in a low voice.

"Concubine De, you can enjoy the flowers today, but there is your favorite green peony." The queen smiled and said to a concubine in a lake blue dress. Green peony is the most precious kind of chrysanthemum, and it is not easy to cultivate. Today I see the Royal Garden, mainly chrysanthemums, and other flowers are foils.

Green peony has strong branches and irregular leaf shapes. The petals of the flower are multi-round and not revealing. When blooming, the outer petals are light green, and the middle petals are emerald green and curl upwards. The heart petals are wrapped in thick green, and the entire corolla is rigorous and oblate. When it first blooms, the flower color is green like jade, with crystal clear jade drops; after sun exposure, the green is transparent and yellow, and it is dazzling. It is a rare treasure in the chrysanthemum family. So people call it "green peony".

"The flowers in this fall are so beautiful, I really don't want spring." De Fei smiled back to the queen and said.

The four concubines are not simple people. Noble concubine, Shu concubine, De concubine, and Xian concubine are arranged in order. De concubine is an old man in the palace. Although she is not favored, she gets along with the emperor. The emperor highly values ​​and respects this virtue. Concubine.

The peaceful atmosphere between the queen and the concubine made everyone feel a lot closer.

At this time, a soft and gorgeous voice suddenly sounded, cutting through the air, like the first valley of the yellow oriole. The heart-stringing laughter made everyone look at it. I saw that the person said, "I heard that there are people in the capital. Just like this, Yujia Yuanliang, Shen Jiagui girl. The most famous young people in Beijing are them. Queen, let us see how this girl Shen Jiagui, the number one beauty in Beijing, is like?"

Shen Anyan followed the voice and looked over. The pale gold cloud-smoke shirt was embroidered with elegant orchids, and the rusty and bright red flower patterns on it almost covered the background. The yellow ancient pattern double-butterfly cloud-shaped thousand water skirt was dragged on the floor. Hand holding Bixia Luo plum mist gauze. Yunji E'e wears a hollow orchid pearl hairpin, her face is as charming as the moon, and her eyes look bright and sultry.

There are two peacock hairpins on each side under the temples, and a ruby ​​is held under each peacock's mouth, and a string of pearls hangs down, which is both expensive and unassuming. Watch her fold her slender waist and take a slight step, her wrists are in the light yarn. With spring water and clear waves in the eyes, the Japanese jade dragon and phoenix hairpin were inserted diagonally on his head. Fragrant Jiaoyu is tender and beautiful than Huajiao, referring to cut green onion roots like Zhu Dan, with a smile and a heart-warming smile.

Shen Anyan guessed that she might be Yin Chenlang's mother and concubine, Xiao Guifei, the most beautiful woman in the legendary palace. Although it is no longer so young and delicate, but after the baptism of the palace, it appears more temperament and heritage, more dignified and elegant. She is also very well maintained, and not a newcomer can easily surpass it.

When she was idle and bored to talk, the queen didn't mind, she glanced at Concubine Xiao. I am a queen, and I have to wear a nine-tailed phoenix hairpin on formal occasions, so Xiao Anlan specifically did not bring a five-tailed phoenix hairpin. I couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm also very curious, the Shen family girl hasn't entered the palace this year, come out and let me quietly."

Because it was not a particularly formal occasion, and in order to make everyone feel more cordial, the queen specifically did not use "my house" but "I". On another level, she can also see her affection for Shen Lingyang.
