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

Generally speaking, it was the time for this Mrs. Li to rush into the palace to pay her respects. She tried every means to sell her own daughter. Words such as "pure filial piety" and "caring" came out of her mouth, and she didn't seem guilty at all.

Unlike when they lived in the East Palace before, it didn't take long to travel from Chengqian Palace to Compassionate Palace where Concubine Li lived.Yun Ling listened to Mrs. Li not forgetting to flatter Yang Peishan while promoting her own daughter outside, deeply regretting that she only brought snacks when she came in just now, not a pot of tea.She can almost imagine Yang Peishan's expression now. It must be kind and smiling, and the smile on her face must be just right. It seems to be encouraging Mrs. Li to continue talking. In fact, Yang Peishan's words are just a left ear. Just out of the right ear.

When Yao Huang came back from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, he brought Dowager Li's orders with him, "Miss Li is lively and cute, and the Empress Dowager likes it very much. I said I will stay with her in the palace for a few days."

Yang Peishan stood up, with the same smile on her face as before, and said to Mrs. Li, "Since it's the concubine mother who keeps her, aunt can rest assured. Just like in your own home."

Mrs. Li smiled and said a few words of humility, "Seeing that the goal was achieved, she resigned from Yang Peishan and went out.Yunling came out from the inner room, and exchanged a glance with Yang Peishan, feeling that if they read correctly, the meaning of the Li family was very clear.Yun Ling didn't feel bad at all. After all, the newcomers who had just entered the palace didn't jump in front of her eyes. They were just a little curious, "What does Miss Li look like?"

Yang Peishan signaled Wei Zi who was standing aside to add charcoal to the foot stove, and smiled at Yunling's question without saying a word.

Later, Yun Ling actually saw that Miss Li in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and she was very disappointed when she first saw it, but it was not unexpected.If Concubine Li had an outstanding appearance when she was young, she would not stop at Jieyu after giving birth to Situ Hui.Although more than half of the Supreme Emperor's heart went to Concubine Zhen Gui in those years, it did not prevent him from pampering other beauties.For example, the current empress dowager is much better than Concubine Li in terms of appearance alone, which shows that the genes of the Li family are just like that.

This Miss Li is probably her niece Xiao Gu, her mouth is somewhat similar to Concubine Li's, but the most important facial features are her eyebrows and eyes are not like Concubine Li's. My cousin probably won't do it either.

Judging from the people in the current harem, Concubine Min is the least beautiful—this is by no means to say that Concubine Min is not good-looking, in fact, if she is placed outside the palace, Concubine Min can be considered a little beauty.But who called Situ Hui the emperor?Whether it was compared with the Chen family when she was in the mansion, or compared with Wu Zhaoyi now, Concubine Min is a bit dwarfed by comparison.

This young lady Li is about as beautiful as Concubine Min, but she is younger. The little girl at sixteen or seventeen is really fresh and tender enough to squeeze water out of it.It's not over yet, and everyone is wearing winter clothes. Miss Li can see a slender figure hidden under the bloated winter clothes. She looks much more agile than Concubine Min, who has given birth to two children.

But after all, the official draft has to wait until after the beginning of spring, so during this period of time Miss Li is raised as a spoiled guest in the Palace of Compassion and Peace.It's a pity that Situ Hui was so busy with the affairs of the previous court that he started to sleep in the East Palace occasionally, but he didn't have any chance encounter with Miss Li, and he didn't even know what the Li family was up to.

After all, the occupation of the emperor, 996 overtime, all year round.Moreover, I don't know if it's Yunling's illusion, but I always feel that Situ Hui seems to have lost some weight recently.Occasionally chatting with Yang Peishan, Yang Peishan also complained that Situ Hui didn't eat on time.It's a pity that apart from Yang Peishan, the queen, who can persuade him a little bit about this kind of thing, people like Yun Ling who can't see Situ Hui until he is free have no room to intervene.

For Yunling, the first good thing in the new year is that Miao Yunfeng's wedding is finally completed.To say that the ancient marriage procedures were really trivial, but on the day when the actual wedding was held, it was not as easy as a modern wedding. Fortunately, Xu Zhongwei was kind enough to help Miao Yunfeng block some wine, so that this kid could get through the wedding safely.

The second piece of good news should be read together with the first one, that is, this year's imperial examination, Miao Yunfeng got No. 80 in the second class.I have to say that this kid's luck is really good. This year's second-class won a total of 88, and the third-class won 180. With Miao Yunfeng's result, he fell to the third-class.

The Qionglin Yan Yunling of the Xinke Scholars has no chance to meet. Fortunately, Situ Hui has not enough manpower to rectify Chao Gang, and he has not idled this year's Xinke Scholars for too long. Awarded an official.Miao Yunfeng didn't pass the exam as a concubine, and he didn't have a chance to work in the Imperial Academy, but he had a little nepotism with Situ Hui, and the officials didn't dare to underestimate him, so he was assigned to the Agricultural Affairs Department.

The Department of Agricultural Affairs used to be very prosperous in the previous dynasty, and it was a department under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Household Affairs. Miao Yunfeng is now working as a secretary next to a principal, and his daily official duties are not light.But as an official for the imperial court, if you encounter a light job, then you will really cry, because there is no room for development.

It just so happened that last year Situ Hui planted potatoes on his farm in the suburbs of Beijing, and the yield was not bad. It stands to reason that this year he should be looking for a pilot project across the country.Now potatoes are just beginning to be planted, and the Ministry of Household Affairs does not recognize this crop when it collects taxes, so it is required that one village and one county should not be given too many planting tasks during the nationwide pilot planting. In short, this needs to be implemented The officials balanced themselves.

Of course, Miao Yunfeng, a small secretary, cannot be the official in charge of this matter, but it is probably because he knows the habits of potatoes after all--Yunling's mother plant for planting potatoes has been raised by Miao Yunfeng for a long time. It's been a while, so when sharing tasks, Miao Yunfeng's assigned work is not bad.

Miao Yunfeng has an official title and is still an official in the capital, and Yunling is a high-ranking concubine in the palace. In the future, during festivals and palace banquets, she will probably be able to meet her siblings.If there is something to do, you can also take the initiative to summon or ask the Miao family to hand over a sign to the palace.In this way, Yunling was finally considered to have completely cut off contact with the outside of the palace, and if something happened, there would be no news about it.

While the people in the court were busy arranging official positions for this year's new Jinshi, a large-scale knockout match was also kicking off in the harem.The name of this knockout game is "draft".

Why did Yunling say that the draft is a "knockout match"?Things have to start a few days ago.

Situ Hui held an audition when he first came to the throne, but Yunling was still in the East Palace at that time, and only heard Yang Peishan say a few words, "Many people in the capital have problems with their attitudes towards elections." There are also many children who are unwilling, and their attitude towards this draft is like that of white-collar workers in later generations when the sports meeting is held in the unit.

This year, Situ Hui's throne is getting more stable. Yang Peishan didn't say that she had a bad attitude when arranging the palace for the contestants. Yun Ling thought that this year's draft would be safe to the end, but she didn't expect to really watch it when she passed by the Chuxiu Palace one day. It's a big show.

The cause of the matter is this, the general election of the Liang Dynasty is actually not strict with the show girls, it does not require the show girls to wear uniform clothing during the selection, and the makeup can also be done according to everyone's wishes.In this way, the show girls can each bring in a small bag from outside the palace—of course, the bags have to go through a "security check". Everyday necessities, no harmful items, can allow Xiu Nu to enter the palace with a bag on her back.

Only in this way, the quality of life of the show girls who are also in Chuxiu Palace can be clearly separated.If the family is rich, bring two more pairs of gold bracelets and silver rings, and "love" the nuns after the house is divided in Chuxiu Palace, so that they can get good care every day.Of course, nuns have a bottom line, even if they don't give them gifts, they won't embarrass anyone, but unless a certain beautiful girl is particularly good-looking, there will definitely be no special care.

This time, it was a young girl who was dressed in a rich and noble manner. Judging by her clothes and hair accessories, she was the kind who had the ability to give gifts to the nuns.And she was targeting a girl with elegant clothes and an oval face with willow-leaf eyebrows.Yunling glanced in the dark, and couldn't help but envy this girl's skin, it's really flamboyant, coupled with this girl's temperament, even Yunling, who has seen countless beauties, would have to praise her, she looks so good.

When this girl is not talking, she has an amiable aura about her.But as soon as you open your mouth to speak, it is crisp and raw, "You said that I took your bracelet. Has anyone seen it? I am the show girl who participated in this election. Even if you come to search my cabinet, you have to speak up." , it’s not something you can search for if you want!”

Yunling let out a "wow" in her heart, the voice of the soft girl looks like Yujie.

"Who else is it but you? You can smell the smell of poverty in this room every three miles!" The richly dressed girl snorted coldly and glanced at the nuns standing aside, seeming somewhat dissatisfied.Everyone in their room had spent money for the nanny, only this plainly dressed girl didn't look like a rich person, and it was obvious that she was able to live in the lighting room they were living in because of her beauty. Nice and spacious room.

The nuns smoothed things over, and in all fairness, they didn't want to offend this beautiful girl, but the richly dressed girl always had good things for them, so her reprimand wasn't too harsh, it was just two sentences "this is In the Forbidden City, it’s not your yard, if you want to quarrel and go out of the palace to quarrel, I promise you can have a good quarrel” and other words, did not mention the situation of the “box search” that the oval-faced beauty said, but each Hit [-] boards and passed.

Yunling really didn't see this kind of tit-for-tat scene in the original body's memory, probably because the candidates for the general election all entered the palace for the position of emperor's concubine, so they were very competitive from the beginning.Yunling raised her eyebrows, and continued to walk towards Ci'an Palace, and went to play with the Empress Dowager.

When Yunling arrived at Ci'an Palace, Concubine Li was also here.To say that Concubine Li is a sensible person, it's fine if Situ Hui didn't become rampant after ascending the throne, and walked around with the empress dowager as before.Even now, Situ Hui has gradually gained power in the previous dynasty, and Concubine Li still often comes to sit with the Empress Dowager.If there is any fun, he also pulls the empress dowager together, and his attitude seems to be the same as before.

The empress dowager was not considered arrogant when she treated Li Jieyu as Concubine Zhuang. Now that Concubine Li's son has gradually taken power, the empress dowager will certainly not make any fools at this time.So Yun Ling walked in from the outside, and she heard the Empress Dowager laughing and praising, "It's true, your niece is a caring one."

Yunling walked forward, only to find that the Empress Dowager and Concubine Li were watching someone kick the shuttlecock.That little girl can kick five or six shuttlecocks into the air at a time, and each shuttlecock is tied with silk, which undoubtedly makes it more difficult for the shuttlecock kicker to aim. Let several shuttlecocks form a circle, and kick the remaining shuttlecocks through the middle of the circle.

Before Yunling went to the Compassionate Ning Palace to pay her respects, she was with the large army.A group of people were sitting at the bottom, of course Concubine Li couldn't let this little girl perform in the middle of the Palace of Compassion and Peace, so Miss Li is no longer in the Palace of Compassion and Peace, but it was the first time Yunling saw this little girl doing it. Performance.

Seeing her coming in from the outside, Concubine Li ordered the maid to bring a chair.After Yunling took her seat, the topic of Concubine Li did not move away from Miss Li. Thinking of the scene she saw on the way here, Yunling smiled and nodded in praise, "Miss Li is lively." , Among the group of people standing behind the richly dressed beautiful girl, isn't there the figure of Miss Li?

The Empress Dowager glanced at Yunling, and seeing that Yunling was smiling really happily, she knew there was something she didn't know about it.Concubine Li, on the other hand, was a bit surprised when she heard Yunling's praise. After all, the intentions of the Li family and Miss Li were very obvious in the palace, and now that the draft began, Miss Li was also one of the candidates.

You know, Daliang's draft is for the emperor's service. If you don't want to enter the harem, you can sign up for exemption because of the relationship between the Li family and the emperor.

When she walked out of the Ci'an Palace, Yun Ling was still thinking about it, she didn't know what kind of position this young lady Li would be in the palace.It is said that the Li family did not express their intention to take refuge until now, but in fact it is no different from the grass on the wall.Thinking of this, Yun Ling was very speechless towards the Li family. As Situ Hui's uncle's family, not to mention that he came to show his favor when Situ Hui was still the fifth prince, at least he should post it immediately after Situ Hui ascended the throne!Did they think that if Situ Hui really annoyed the Supreme Emperor and they kept a distance from Situ Hui, the Supreme Emperor would let the Li family go?

While thinking wildly, Yunling strolled to the imperial garden.There are not many places with water in the palace, and the artificial lake in the middle of the imperial garden is one of them.However, in spring, the artificial lake has no view, and the Huxin Pavilion is affected by the water vapor, and it is colder than other places in the imperial garden.It was rare to come out, Yunling admired the flowers in the Imperial Garden for a while, and then planned to go around the artificial lake and return to Zhongcui Palace.

There is a gravel road beside the artificial lake. At this moment, the flowers on both sides of the gravel road have already bloomed, which looks unique.Occasionally there is a rockery outside the stone road, and Yunling bypasses the rockery.However, the closer she got to the lake, Yunling realized that the lake was not deserted.
