[Red Mansions] The promotion of the female history of salted fish

Yunling never thought that she would be able to see that symbol far away in the sky so soon.

The cause of the incident was that the third princess had been married for a full year. According to the rules of this dynasty, she should return to the palace to live in the opposite month.It is said that it is against the moon, but in fact, since the founding of the dynasty, no princess has lived for a full month.It's understandable when you think about it, just one year of marriage, as for the newlyweds, it's not bad to be able to live in the palace for ten days and a half months, so as soon as the third princess came back, she couldn't help but be hugged by Concubine Zhuang in her arms.

The third princess had a smile on her lips and a generous demeanor, she couldn't tell at all that the son-in-law hired a concubine with great fanfare to slap her in the face half a month ago.Concubine Zhuang took her hand and kept saying, "I lost weight, I lost weight."

"Where is she thin? Mother and Concubine haven't seen her daughter for a long time. In fact, she compared this year's clothes with last year's quietly, and her waistline is an inch longer." The third princess understood what Concubine Zhuang didn't say. He simply comforted, "My princess's mansion has recruited a few new cooks, all of whom are excellent in craftsmanship, and they have made people fat without knowing it."

Knowing that this was her daughter's words to comfort her, but seeing her looking good, Concubine Zhuang was relieved a little, and ordered Bai Sha, "Go to the imperial dining room, you know what Jiaoyue likes to eat, let them do it well, If you do a good job, the palace will reward you."

With a smile on the corner of Baisha's mouth, he took the order and went.

Although seeing her daughter doesn't seem to be depressed, Concubine Zhuang is still brooding over the concubine's concubine.It was still the third princess who persuaded, "Fifth brother had a few drinks with the son-in-law, and beat him a lot during the banquet. Now the son-in-law has restrained himself a lot."

Concubine Zhuang burst into tears, "My poor son..." Most of the marriages of the princesses in this dynasty are seen by the mother and concubine, and then reported to the emperor to go through the process and it's over.However, the marriage between the third princess and the current son-in-law Zhen Zhen was chosen by the emperor himself, and the emperor's attitude is here again, let alone divorce, she can't even say that the son-in-law is not decent.

Nanny Jiang and Zizhu accompanied the three princesses to try their best to persuade Concubine Zhuang, and slowly persuaded Concubine Zhuang's interest to come back.

There are concubines in the palace who are good friends with Concubine Zhuang and know that the third princess is coming back today, so they don't come to disturb the mother and daughter.After being bored for several days, there was a cool breeze in the evening today, which shows that it is God's blessing.Concubine Zhuang gave an order, and the Changchun Palace's small banquet tonight will be arranged in the courtyard.

"It's a pity that it's not easy to see open fires in the palace. Otherwise, put some river lanterns on the water, and the banquet will be placed on the pavilion near the water, which will be even more interesting." Concubine Zhuang is now acting as an agent of palace affairs, so it's not easy to take the lead in breaking the palace rules.

"It's already very good. How many times do you want to hold the banquet in Linshui? The number of times you talk to the concubine like this is less and less each time." The regret on the third princess's face flashed, and she pointed to the next one Smiling to Yunling, Zhang Jinru and Jiang Nanny, "I was supposed to welcome me, but wouldn't it be lonely if it was just me and my concubine mother? You sit too."

Nanny Jiang has been with Concubine Zhuang for many years, and the female history is also a courtier, so it is not too polite to get a seat.

Yunling and the others repeatedly declined, but they couldn't push it, so they sat down.

Having seen how Concubine Zhuang was worried about her in the afternoon, the third princess naturally wanted to make this little banquet lively.When Baisha and the others sat down, they smiled and said, "What's the point of eating, why don't we put on a show alone, if I can amuse my mother and concubine, it's my daughter's filial piety."

Naturally, everyone had no objection, so the third princess called the maid and played the piano in the courtyard.The soft and transparent sound quality, the gentle and pleasant charm, combined with the chirping of cicadas in the courtyard in summer, and the gusts of evening wind, Yunling seems to be able to see the deer running in the forest, and the birds flapping their wings back and forth... The third princess who played the piano sound like this must be really open-minded and doesn't care about the son-in-law.

After the song was over, Concubine Zhuang finally smiled at ease, "I listened to the sound of the bright moon, and now I am getting better and better." After saying that, she ordered Baisha to take out a set of scarlet gold inlaid eight-treasure headgear that she wore when she was young. Including picking the heart, top hairpin, distraction, covering the temples, a pair of step shakers, a pair of hairpins, and twelve hair combs. They are arranged neatly on the tray, and the weight is not light.Seeing the gratified look in the eyes of the concubine mother, the third princess didn't refuse very much, instead, she grabbed Concubine Zhuang's arm and rolled it around in her arms a few times, and then coquettishly pestered her for a while before getting up.

Zhang Jinru wrote a poem praising the three princesses playing the piano just now, and won a jadeite bracelet from Concubine Zhuang.Mother Jiang told a story imitating a storyteller outside, and got two silk-wrapped rings.When it was Yunling's turn, she frowned intentionally and said with a little worry, "There were not many ministers in the meeting, but now they are all performed. Why don't Princess Yunchen tell a joke."

The third princess slapped the table and laughed loudly, "No, no, it's meant to make the concubine mother laugh. If you tell jokes, isn't it cheating?"

Yunling had a bitter face, "I don't know anything else, the princess should be accommodating." She bowed to the three princesses.

The third princess rolled her eyes, "It's okay to tell jokes, but I'll give you a glass of wine first."

For a small banquet held by a group of women, the Imperial Dining Room will not serve high-strength wine. The strength of this rice wine is about the same as that of beer.So Yunling drank a glass happily, but she didn't leave her seat like Jiang Nanny did before she told the story. Instead, she put down her glass and said, "There is a person who goes to a friend's house as a guest. He refuses to eat until the plate is empty at the banquet." After leaving the banquet, his friend pointed to a tree outside the house and said, look, there is a bird there, I will cut the tree down, how about taking the bird down and roasting it for us to add to the dish?

"The man said, when you chop, the bird should run away.

"In the end, my friend said, you don't understand, it's just a stupid bird, and it won't leave the table until it dies." After finishing speaking, Yunling picked up the chopsticks and picked up a magnolia slice that was put in the bowl before drinking, and ate it slowly .

Everyone was stunned for two seconds before they realized it, and then the whole room roared with laughter. The third princess leaned into Concubine Zhuang's arms and shouted "Ouch!"

The third princess managed to slow down, covered her stomach and smiled, "Mother and Concubine, hurry up and bring out some good ones, I will make this stupid bird leave the table."

Concubine Zhuang smiled and clapped her hands, and sure enough, Baisha brought a pair of pure silver inlaid hibiscus jade buds.The jewelry that can be sent to Concubine Zhuang, the plain silver ones are already inferior in terms of materials, and the workmanship is more delicate than others.When the breeze blew, the wings of the butterfly on the Buyao fluttered, as if they wanted to fly away.

"That stupid bird refused to leave the banquet until it died, but I was greedy for my mother's reward." Yun Ling stood up from her seat with a smile, and said a few witty words when accepting the reward, which made everyone laugh .Zhang Jinru frowned and didn't speak.

There was a lot of noise here, and suddenly the little eunuch who was guarding the door came to report, "Your Majesty's imperial chariot has come out of the Qianqing Palace. Eunuch Chang's apprentice just came to send word that he will come over tonight."

Concubine Zhuang was taken aback.In recent years, the emperor favored young and beautiful beauties and talented people more. Among the four concubines, the most favored concubine only went to talk during the day. Why did she suddenly come to Changchun Palace tonight?

That being said, if the emperor said he was coming, who would dare to stop him?Baisha and Zizhu summoned the little maid, quickly removed the dishes from the banquet, and everyone went back to the room, ready to welcome Shengjia.

Yunling stood with the crowd for a while, only heard three whips coming from far and near, the room was solemn, not even a superfluous cough.When the bright yellow figure got off the chariot at the gate of Changchun Palace, he could see the places he passed dwindled one by one—this was everyone saying hello.

"Get up." When the emperor's voice came, he was already at the door, and he smiled when he saw the third princess, "I heard that the bright moon is back, come and have a look, didn't you bother the two of you, right? "

The third princess stepped forward and took the emperor's arm, her voice was sweet and soft, "What is the father talking about, you can come here, it's too late for my daughter to be happy."

The emperor's voice was very majestic, and as the figure approached, Yun Ling could feel that it was a plump and fat man.It is recorded in the history books that a certain great husband has "ten circumferences around his belt", and he probably has this body shape.Just as he was thinking, the emperor's voice came over, "I heard that your princess mansion has recruited two new chefs from Jiangnan? This is very good, the young couple should be considerate of each other."

Not long after he ascended the throne, Mrs. Fengsheng moved to the south of the Yangtze River with the Zhen family.Now that is the foundation of the Zhen family. The three princesses married Zhen Ting, the third son of Mrs. Fengsheng's eldest son, Zhen Yingjia. He was born in Jiangnan. is close.

Yunling lowered her head, feeling a little sad for the third princess.It's not that she has never seen a person with weak emotions, but it's not that common in this era that the family affection is so weak, but the affection and righteousness towards her nurse's family are extremely high, right?

Concubine Zhuang came to her senses first, even though she already wanted to blow the heads of Zhen's family in her heart, she still smiled softly in front of the emperor, "It turns out that this is the case, Jiaoyue told the concubine today that the cooks in the house are good , It seems..." She pursed her lips and smiled, looking very relieved.

The emperor was very emotional when he said it, "When I was young, the Zhen family lived in today's Kangningfang. There is a wonton house there that is very delicious. I went there with Zhen Yingjia. So many years have passed..."

He seemed to be thinking about it, what could Concubine Zhuang and the Third Princess say?He had no choice but to wave his hand, ordering Yunling and Zhang Jinru to go down first, while echoing the emperor's words.

It was a good mother-daughter banquet, and the interest was completely defeated by him!Yunling was a little helpless when she went out, but when she glanced at Zhang Jinru, she found that she had a serious face and didn't know what she was thinking.

It's been more than half a month since I came to Concubine Zhuang's Palace, and I seem to have stepped on the ground a little more familiarly, but Yun Ling has never found a chance to make friends with Zhang Jinru, a colleague.The main reason is that this person seems to have been staying in the small library of the Changchun Palace all the time, and rarely wanders around during the day.Concubine Zhuang didn't want to read idle books to relieve boredom in the past half month, and she could bear her temper, and rarely went to Concubine Zhuang's face.

The two looked at each other, and before she could say something close, Zhang Jinru had already nodded at her, quickened her pace, and went straight back to her room.
