The glorious spring scene of the Red House

Early the next morning, Yu Yan was dressed neatly, waiting for Xia Zhaorong's instructions.

Facing the mirror, Xia Zhaorong slowly drew her eyebrows, took some rouge with her finger, and put it on her lips.

"You sit down first. It's Friday, and the empress has to go to pay her respects to the empress. By the time the empress comes back, it may already be lunch time. You can copy the scriptures in peace of mind in your room, and wait for the empress to make a decision. Someone will come to announce you."

Xia Zhaorong's makeup was thick and gaudy, which also made him look older.

Xia Zhaorong used her rouge-smeared fingertips to touch the center of Yu Yu's eyebrows, and said, "Today I will teach you something. No matter what time it is, you must first tidy yourself up to make yourself comfortable. As for what others think, it is up to others." thing."

As if meeting Xia Zhaorong for the first time, Yu Yan raised the curtain in a daze, and watched Xia Zhaorong go out.

This woman in the palace has left her best years here, and is slowly getting old. If she doesn't treat herself better, it will be a waste of time.

But once out of this door, Xia Zhaorong changed back to his previous appearance.

After Yu Xing finished copying the scriptures, he moved a stool and sat in front of the charcoal basin to change his clothes.The clothes and dresses issued uniformly in the palace always don't fit well, and she has to change them to suit her own wishes.It's winter, she doesn't want to go out at all, the room is warm and comfortable, I don't know how many times more comfortable than outside.

After serving Concubine Shu's breakfast, Ning Zhaorong came to deliver food to Yu Yan with a food box.

Waiting for Yu Xun to finish his meal, he began to criticize Yu Xun.

"I just left for a while yesterday, and something like this happened. It seems that they didn't take me seriously. It is said that this newly promoted maid has been in this palace for almost two years. How could she still There are no rules like this! You are too, it was given to you by the empress, how could it enter someone else's stomach, I am really mad." Ning Zhaorong got a little anxious, but it can be said that these are also for the good of Yu Yu.

Before this matter reached Concubine Shu's ears, the two Zhaorongs who were close to Yu Yan were already thinking about how to make those bad people leave Changchun Palace completely.

"Xia Zhaorong told me, it's not a big deal..."

"Yes, it's really not a big deal, but if it reaches the ears of the empress, then this little thing will become a big deal." Ning Zhaorong said angrily: "I dragged you down too. You are too young to know this palace. There are some people in the room who are very deep-minded. She can turn around in her own heart when others are a little troubled."

Sitting in the position of Ning Zhaorong, if you want to go up, you have to get seniority.Before that time, no matter how good you do, you won't be able to get promoted.

But if Ning Zhaorong is really promoted one day, someone else will take her original position.

But the positions in the palace are all fixed, if Ning Zhaorong doesn't vacate his position, no one else will be able to move forward.

Ning Zhaorong's temper comes and goes quickly: "They are getting impatient and want to squeeze me down so that they can be Zhaorong by themselves. Yesterday was just a temptation, if we really let this matter Passing by quietly, the main event is probably waiting for us not far away."

Isn't this the ancient version of workplace struggle?

Ning Zhaorong took off her outer robe and changed into a homely beanie, but she didn't take off the hairpin, but sat in front of the mirror again and stroked her eyebrows twice.

"Don't look at me as Zhaorong now, but that's how I walked step by step and step by step. Others only see that I am Zhaorong now, with a high grade on my body, and when I travel, there are also three or two little palace ladies accompanying me." Waiter. But why didn't they see me, what was it like when I was suffering?"

After Ning Zhaorong finished dressing by herself, she pulled Yu Yan to the mirror and asked her to sit quietly.

"Wait for the Ninth Prince to come back, and you can go back with Cui Siji, without having to go through the muddy waters of the Changchun Palace. If I take out the frozen pears, I'll see which one of them dares to move them. That's bullying your age." Little, I don’t know what to do, so I took you as a raft.”

Ning Zhaorong's hands are not only dexterous in writing, but also extremely flexible in dressing and dressing.But with a couple of efforts, Yu Yan's hair was shaped.

"They are still too impatient. Seeing that I have come looking for you, they think that I am going to cut off their way. So... they want to drag me down together." Ning Zhaorong's eyes rolled, and there was a sarcasm between his brows meaning.

Yu Xun is a teenager behind Ning Zhaorong. In the eyes of others, when Yu Xun grows up to Ning Zhaorong's current age, it will be just right for Ning Zhaorong to take over Ning Zhaorong's current position.

Except for Concubine Shu's confidantes, no one else knew that Yu Xing came to Changchun Palace to copy Buddhist scriptures for the nine princes who traveled far away.

Those people who don't know the details see it in a different way.Both Ning Zhaorong and Yu Yan came from the Siji Division, and they are both close to Cui Siji. This is not training their own successors, what is it?

This logic is smooth, but unfortunately, Ning Zhaorong didn't have such thoughts at all.Under Cui Siji's command, Yu Xun has a better way to go.

"I'm afraid you will have to see your mother soon, but you have to dress up well. How are you copying the scriptures these days? Have you finished copying a book?"

Yu Xie is still reminiscing what Ning Zhaorong said just now, Yu Xie has no control over what other people think, but the brain circuit that disturbs the trouble is too clear.

"What are you thinking about? This was something foolishly made up, so there is nothing to think about. You just need to do your part well, and the rest... will be decided by your mother." Ning Zhaorong said softly.

How could those people be fools?To be able to play around like this, is he still a fool?

Yu Yan stared at the mirror, pointed at himself inside, and said in a daze, "Is this me?"

I don't know how Ning Zhaorong dresses up, but Yu Yan looks better than before.But in the end it was still childish, and when Yu Yan spoke, he showed the appearance of a child again.

Ning Zhaorong sneered, and said: "Why is it not you, but you just dress up a little, so you can't recognize it? It's also...you are still so young, and you look like a person in a painting when you smile casually. What's the use of it?" You have to dress up carefully. Unlike me, if you don't take good care of this face, I'm afraid you will grow old."

"The painting that Zhaorong is talking about is the big Ah Fu in that year's painting, right? I have a round face, but I do look a bit like it." Yu Yan joked.

Yu Yan's ability to be funny is pretty good. After hearing this, Ning Zhaorong covered her mouth with the back of her hand and said with a smile: "Hahahaha... How can you say that about yourself. You really laughed my belly out."

The laughter gradually subsided, Ning Zhaorong looked at Yu Xun, and carefully painted Yu Xun's eyebrows and eyes.

"If I were still your age, I wouldn't put these group leaders on my face pretending to be aggressive! (Rebirth Qiangqiang). When I was half-aged, I was only 24 years old. I am already past half-old .”

The corners of Yu Yu's lips, which were originally raised, gradually pursed into a straight line.

Just because of this?So... even if there is the rule that the palace maids can leave the palace at the age of 25, people in this palace rarely go out.

In Yu Yan's opinion, the 25-year-old girl is really at the right age with high spirits.But here, a girl of this age is already old...

"Hey... let's not talk about that, Zhaorong, you just asked me if you have copied a scripture? I have already copied a book."

"That's good. You can tidy it up. I'll find you a box to put it in. If the empress summons you, I'll present it together."

In the afternoon, as expected, a palace official from the main hall of Changchun Palace came to summon Yu Xun.

Because Concubine Shu didn't summon Ning Zhaorong, Ning Zhaorong could only go to the main hall gate together with Yu Yu, and let Yu Yu go in with the palace servants alone.

Yu Yan smelled a faint fragrance again, if he smelled it carefully, he could still distinguish the smell inside.

After smelling it a few more times, Yu Yan felt a little hopeless and hungry...

Xia Zhaorong came out from inside and said, "Leave this to me. Take a look at this, can you read it?"

Xia Zhaorong pulled out a thin volume of scriptures from his sleeve.

"This is..." Yu Yan looked at Xia Zhaorong, full of questions.

"Your Majesty is fine. She said she wanted to hear people chant the scriptures. She was not satisfied with those of us who are close to her, so I thought of you. Read it first and listen to it. Don't panic when you get inside."

Holding the scriptures in both hands, Yu Yan asked, "But I didn't come here for this matter, didn't I come for that pear..."

"That's just a matter of my mother's words, you actually think of it now!"

already solved?

Xia Zhaorong looked at the palace servants serving around, and whispered: "I'll tell you about that after I go back. Let's do this first." Xia Zhaorong pointed to the scripture.

Under Xia Zhaorong's supervision, Yu Xun read the scriptures several times, and finally reached Xia Zhaorong's standard, but according to Xia Zhaorong's words, it was just enough to catch his ears.

A series of bead curtains were slowly opened, and Yu Yan finally saw Concubine Shu who was lying on the bed and taking a nap.

Yu Yu knelt on the ground respectfully, waiting for instructions.

Concubine Shu closed her eyes and said: "Get up, since A-Xia has mentioned you, let you try."

After Yu Xing stood still, he looked at Xia Zhaorong, and seeing Xia Zhaorong nodded his head invisible, he took a deep breath, fixed his eyes on the scriptures, and slowly began to read.

Yu Yu's ears were buzzing, she was extremely nervous, and she didn't know what she was reading. As for how Concubine Shu reacted, she herself didn't dare to explore it at all.

When waiting for Yu Yan to come out of the palace, the clothes that she was wearing next to her body were clinging to her body and were wet.The palms of the hands are also full of sweat.

This is really not an easy job.

Back in the house, Yu Yan took the teapot in one hand and the cup in the other, and after pouring a whole pot of tea down his throat, he finally regained his senses.

Before Yu Yan could catch his breath, Xia Zhaorong said proudly, "Your Majesty said, I will read the scriptures for you tomorrow."

Yu Yu: "..."
