Raiders in the days of Qin Shi Huang

Chapter 26 New Year's Palace Banquet

Qiluo mantle and gauze are replaced by old accounts, and pearls and jade new hairpins reflect red makeup.

Put on a layer of new clothes, as if the whole person has become bright.Reflected in the bronze mirror is a figure in a robe with intricate embroidery and gold patterns. He has a magnificent appearance, and a palm-wide ink belt stretches out a graceful waist.

Yun Chang slightly helped a hairpin in her hair, smiled lightly, and the person in the mirror also smiled. She asked the maid, "Why haven't you seen this suit before?"

Usually she doesn't dress up in such a solemn and gorgeous way, and she didn't look at it carefully when the maid took out the clothes this morning. She didn't expect this dress to look like top-notch workmanship and style. After wearing it, she seemed to be different, but it was It seems that it is not in the same style as the clothes she usually wears.

Xiugu said: "A while ago, the king asked someone to send it, saying that it was for you to keep the wax[zhà] to wear during the festival."

"Wax sacrifice?" Yunshang blinked and repeated, sounding like a sacrifice, "It seems that there are some records in the book." But because women generally do not participate in sacrifices, she didn't pay much attention.

Xiugu was a little troubled, "In the past, on this day at home, the prefect would take his subordinates to hold a sacrifice outside, and after returning home, he would sacrifice again with his wife. The servants did not participate, and the slaves did not understand."

Yun Shang nodded, because of her status and other reasons, Xiugu knew very little. She found a simple book from the bookshelf and read it at a glance.

In short, Wax Sacrifice is the most important sacrificial festival of the year, and at this time there is a saying that "the important event of the country is the sacrificial and military affairs", so the importance of sacrificial sacrifice is self-evident.The king presided over the sacrificial ceremony, accompanied by all officials, and stopped the drums to show solemnity.

The system added a line to Yunshang, "The Spring Festival was developed from the Wax Festival."

Oh, it turns out that it is the Chinese New Year.

"Your Majesty has already gone to Yanyu to offer sacrifices for the Baidi. There will be a banquet in Cheng Palace tomorrow. If you are interested in the beauty, you can go and see it." Xiaohe added to Yunshang.

It sounds like a family gathering for a New Year's Eve dinner during the Spring Festival, but she doesn't know many people in the palace.Yun Shang nodded, "Get ready, I will go there when the time comes."

Xiao He was surprised, and then immediately lowered his head. Since the beauty had a conflict with King Qin, he has not gone out. Although he is usually fun, he is not a person who likes to be lively. The women in the palace almost refused the beauty many times. How do you plan to go out this time? ?

Yun Chang thinks simply, and now she is one of the three giants in the palace... Excluding King Qin, there is no Queen Mother on top, and King Qin is not in the palace after this festival, she just goes out, and it is logical to go out to play in the future .

How happy it is!

Chicken, duck, fish, and some unknown meat were spread inward from the door, wine was placed beside each table, and there were quite a few people seated. When Yun Chang looked inside, most of them were dressed in serious costumes.

As soon as the beauty entered, the woman sitting at the end saw a piece of black clothes flying by in front of her eyes, and subconsciously looked up. After the man passed her eyes, she woke up and blinked, but her heart was beating violently. Just now, she didn't know that she could lose her mind for so long because of a woman, and then looked around, all the women seemed to have just recovered, some were envious, others were jealous, and some were dumbfounded as if they had been photographed godlike.

Most people have never met Yun Meiren, and they also heard that the king loves her the most and she is high-ranking and dare not provoke her. Ask other people who have met Yun Meiren, and they are unwilling to talk about it, and only reply when they get annoyed. ——She is the most beautiful in this palace, if you see her, you will never doubt or admit your mistake.

Most people are not convinced by this statement.

All women who can enter the palace no matter how talented they are, their looks will not be bad, and most of them are among the best in a certain place.

No one believed this sentence until they actually saw it.

The first seat was empty, and Yun Chang was led by the maid to sit on the left side of the lower head. Beside her was a woman about 20 years old, wearing a black dress and a golden hairpin. Seeing her coming, she nodded as a greeting.

After being in the palace for a long time, Yunshang no longer has such great interest in food. Most of the food in winter is big fish and meat. After a few months of eating, she has already gotten a little bored.

The woman next to her kept her head down to eat and didn't chat with the left and right except for signaling when she first arrived.I heard from Xiaohe that there is only this feast in the palace once a year, and generally low-ranking wives who have no money on weekdays will hardly miss it, and those like Ji Meiren who hold their own status and disdain to play prestige with them have never participated in it.

Although there is a lot of food, it is not wasted. The leftovers after the banquet will be sold outside the palace...

The maid poured a glass of wine for Yunshang. She thought about going out to play for a while, so she put the cup aside when she touched the corner of her mouth, and occasionally picked up the snacks on the table to taste.

I don't know if it was a sudden change of space, Yun Chang always felt like the wind was stabbing her back, and when she looked up, she didn't find anything.

I said to the system in my heart: "There will be no ghosts here, right?"

"Monsters are still afraid of ghosts?" The system couldn't tell the difference between these two species.

"Why aren't you afraid? Look at the ghosts in the ghost stories, eating human flesh and drinking human blood!"

The system shuddered when she said it, and then became nervous, "You are human now, but don't worry, there have been no ghosts in the palace."

Yun Chang barely steadied himself. Believe it or not, no one has ever seen a ghost anyway. "Then why am I a little cold?"

"It's probably because the winter is too cold, and the wall behind you is covered with frost..." With this explanation, neither the system nor Yunshang deliberately looked behind, and silently said together: the wall is covered with frost...

Yun Shang said: "It's cold against the wall in winter."

The brass-colored candlestick blocked half of Bai Liangren's face, and her eyes fell on Yun Meiren who was eating snacks. She was so beautiful, and she had attracted everyone's attention as soon as she entered the palace.

"This beauty Yun is much prettier than Fei Yuan back then, and I don't know if Fei Yuan would be as favored as she was if she were alive." A woman in a crimson coat said sitting next to Bai Liangren. Entering the palace, the relationship is normal, now thinking of Fei Yuan's feelings, I just say one more sentence.

"It's a pity that Feiyuan left so early, and I don't know if she would be able to have the beauty Yunmei is today if she survives." After a sigh, the woman picked up the wine glass and drank it down.

A young man enters the palace, and now his years are passing away like water, and each has his own life and death. Feelings for a while, it is inevitable to feel sad.

Bai Liangren smiled, "Feiyuan is not as beautiful as Yunmei."

"Really? After so many years, I can't remember clearly." The woman said.

"It's not that long, it's less than five years, and we're still young." Bai Liangren raised his hand and poured himself the wine.

The woman sighed, she will grow old in a few years if she is not old now, and Wang Chong is not around, so what is the difference between a few years earlier and a few years later?

While the lights were flickering, Bai Liangren turned her face sideways, and Yun Meiren's hairpin not far away was shining with precious light, her face seemed to have a faint golden light in the dim and hazy yellow light, and her every move could be pictured .

If this beauty is just a painting, there is no need for people to be so jealous.

The amber wine was gently shaken in the glass, and the ripples moved slightly. There was a lake in the palace connected to the running water outside. Even in winter, it did not freeze. Because there were deaths in the past few years, King Qin ordered the fence to be strengthened and the bridge deck to be widened. Change bricks.

Going back from Chenggong just happened to pass this bridge, Yunshang had never heard of the old things in the palace, and was usually not interested, so she looked at the lake and said to Xiugu: "Unfortunately it's too cold now, there must be fish in it, when spring comes It would be fun to set up a fishing rod or drop a net into the ground."

Xiugu nodded, she had never caught fish before, so it was fun to think about it.

"If the beauty wants to eat fish, I will tell the chef later, the fish in this lake is not good." Xiaohe said to Yunshang.

When it was cold and cold, she was thinking about catching fish when the weather was warmer. It would be fun if the weather got warmer. Yunshang knew herself, shook her head and said to Xiaohe: "I don't eat fish at night, let someone cook some light porridge. "

After walking halfway, the maid told Yun Chang that she couldn't go ahead because there was a layer of ice on the bridge, so it was better to go around.
