Sister Xue of the Red Chamber

Daiyu enters the palace on the day of the general election

In the golden autumn of August, the show girl election.

Daiyu was served by Xueyan, and she wore a brand-new satin-colored lilac-colored full-embroidered eight-treasure flag dress inlaid with snow-green tapestry silk and sesame-grass pattern, and an apricot-red embroidered phoenix vibrating feather and pipa lapel waistcoat, with apricot-yellow four-in-one wishful pattern The edge of Tianhua brocade rolls.It not only shows the extravagance, but also won't be gaudy, and it is full of generosity.

On the head is only a set of jade-carved hibiscus heads sent by Baoxuan, and the thin Shimi Fendai is even more beautiful.

At noon, the mule cart was already waiting in the inner courtyard.Horse racing is not allowed in the Forbidden City, so the show girls can only use mule carts.Xueyan helped Daiyu into the car, and the two nuns stood beside the car, hurrying to explain the rules of entering the palace again.

Xuanyu said: "The two mothers can let my sister go! I have listened to it three or five times, so don't miss the hour if I continue."

Xuanyu could only send the car out of the house.Lin Heyu escorted her on horseback.

Keqin's mansion is in Gongxian Hutong, right next to the wall of the imperial city, and it is also close to the Forbidden City.But Xiunu entered the palace through Shenwumen, and she had to enter the imperial city through Di'anmen, so when Lin Heyu sent Daiyu to Di'anmen, it was already night.

There was already a long queue of chariots and horses outside Di'anmen.Lin Heyu escorted the mule cart to the door,

The Lin family had a clever boy come to scout the way, and when they saw their own chariots and horses, they immediately came to show the way.

Lin Heyu led the way to the front of the Zhengbaiqi chariot team, and organized Daiyu's carriage into the team according to the order previously set.Two lanterns were hung on the carriage, one on the left and the other on the right, with the words "Sister of Lin Heyu, the left deputy capital of Zhengbai Banner" written on them.

At midnight, the army flags were all over the head, and mule carts drove slowly into Di'anmen.

Go straight from Di'anmen Inner Street, enter Jingshan East Street along Jingshan Back Street, and then walk along Jingshan Front Street around the Tongzi River in the Forbidden City.The mule cart was moving very slowly, and it was almost Yin time outside the Dao Shenwu Gate.And there are so many beautiful women, the carriage at the front has stopped, and the rear has indeed just turned into the back street of Jingshan.

Yinzheng, the door of Shenwu opens.

Xiunu's father and brother, the leaders of each banner, and the leaders of the assistants escorted all the way, all rode away on horseback.

With the help of the maids, the beautiful girls got off the mule cart, arranged their clothes and makeup, and walked into the Shenwu Gate alone.There are eunuchs and mothers in Shenwumen who arrange everyone to line up to enter Shunzhenmen.

The maidservants of each family returned to the mule cart, and the mule cart went east along the Shenwu Gate, then went south, exited Donghua Gate, passed Jinyu Alley, went north from Chongwenmen Street, went west from Dongzhimen Street to Drum Tower, and then went Going straight to the south, we arrived outside Di'anmen again, but the convoy was not at all chaotic.

The first reading is by the palace candidates, in Jingyixuan.

Daiyu knew the result early on, so she was determined.After reading the selection, he didn't stay in Jingyixuan and walked slowly along the corridor to the door.

Daiyu originally wanted to wait in the garden of Jianfu Palace, and she was also waiting there for the selection.Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the gate of Cunxing, he was stopped by someone.

"Miss Lin, please stop. Mrs. Jia invites you to go to Huifeng Pavilion to have a talk."

Daiyu glanced at Huifengting, "Jia Gui?"

The court lady said: "Our empress is the eldest daughter of the Rongguo Mansion, so she is Miss Lin's cousin."

Daiyu sneered in her heart, no matter she was called Empress, or she kept claiming that she was the eldest daughter of the Rongguo Mansion, daring to stop the beautiful girl in the harem to "narrate" to her, it shows how stupid she is.

Daiyu didn't go there either, she just said to the court lady: "Please answer Daiyu's aunt, Daiyu has to go to the garden of Jianfu Palace and wait to leave the palace, so she can't talk with the young master."

The maid saluted, "I'll hold the zither, I'll go and answer. Miss Lin, please wait a moment."

Baoqin went away for a while, but Daiyu couldn't see clearly from a distance.It's enough that Jia Yuanchun won't be happy.

When the beautiful girls in Jingyixuan were about to leave, they walked over with the qin in their arms, and Fushen said: "Miss Lin, our empress said that when I was not out of the cabinet, I was often taken care of by Mrs. Tai. Now I have been in the palace for many years. But I only went back to the mansion once, two years ago. Miss Lin is also the granddaughter of the Rongguo Mansion, and I hope Miss Lin will visit Mrs. Tai more often."

Daiyu smiled and said: "The old lady is kind, if Daiyu is free, she should visit her grandmother often."

Baoqin said again: "My lady always misses Baoyu in her heart. Baoyu is stubborn, and Miss Lin should persuade her more on weekdays."

Daiyu's face turned pale, and she said forcefully: "Daiyu is not familiar with the second cousin. It has been more than two years since we saw each other. I am going to disappoint the empress."

After finishing speaking, no matter what Baoqin said, he turned around and walked towards the garden of Jianfu Palace.

At noon, the inner eunuch led the beautiful girls outside the Shenwu Gate, where the mule cart was already waiting.Although the lantern has been extinguished, it is still hanging so that Xiu Nu can find her car.

The mule carts still go along the road, and after leaving Donghuamen, they return to their homes.

Lin Heyu had already been waiting in the inner courtyard. Seeing Daiyu get out of the car, she smiled and asked, "What's the matter? Are you afraid? But you've learned a lot?"

Daiyu frowned, "That's all. I'm not afraid. It's just..."

"what happened?"

"After watching, I saw Baoqin."

Lin Heyu was stunned, "Hold the piano? Which one is it?"

Daiyu shook her head and said, "My brother has a bad memory. Baoqin is my sister Yuanchun's dowry. After the selection, Mrs. Jia wanted to ask me to speak, but I was afraid it would be inappropriate, so I refused. It's just that Mrs. Jia asked Baoqin to send a message. It sounds like...Jia Gui wants to meddle in my business."

"Why is it her again!" Lin Heyu wondered, "I've seen someone so stupid, but I've never seen someone so stupid. I've turned myself from a concubine into a noble person, and I'm still restless! Xueyan, you go there The eldest princess's mansion, tell this matter, and ask the eldest princess for an idea."

Changchun Palace.

Empress Fucha was reclining on the couch, slowly flipping through the roster of beautiful girls that her servant had just delivered.

Suddenly hearing the report from the maid, Jia Gui came to say hello.

Mrs. Fucha smiled when she heard the words, "Please invite her in. She must be anxious too."

After Yuan Chun finished his ceremony, he hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty, what the servant girl asked for last time..."

Mrs. Fucha flipped through the roster, pointed to a page and said, "Oh, I already know that this Lin Daiyu must have been registered."

"How can this be good! Her crooked appearance, coquettish and coquettish, is not just like a wise man!" Yuan Chun said anxiously.

Although in February of this year, the concubine Jin was promoted to concubine Jia, the fifth elder brother's birth mother Hai nobleman Ke Liyet was promoted to concubine Yu, the nobleman Yehenala was promoted to concubine Shu, and the family Bai was promoted to concubine Yi, but the most important people in the palace The one favored is the Huigui, Mrs. Gao.

Now people in the palace can't understand the favor of this nobleman.She is obviously the most favored, but she refuses to be promoted, and even demoted her from the position of concubine a few years ago.

Everyone can only guess, maybe the emperor just loves her color and hates her.

Now seeing Lin Daiyu appearing, she raised her flag and wanted to run in the election.Not to mention that she is more beautiful than Gao Shisheng, but compared to Gao Shi's emphasis on a sick beauty, she is a bit more bookish.Because he was born in a scholarly family, and his father and brother are both Tanhua, I'm afraid that Gao's can be compared to him just by opening his mouth!

What's more, this Gao family was originally from Baoyi, even if he got the holy favor, even if he was promoted to the concubine one day, he would not be able to escape the heavens!The Lin family carried it to the Zhengbai flag of the Manjun army, but it was different from the Gao family.If Lin Daiyu enters the palace, she should be a noble person for the first time, and then she will have a holy favor...

The queen smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry. I have nothing to do today, so I went to Yanchun Pavilion to sit and enjoy the chrysanthemums. Although the autumn scenery is beautiful, after all, it is separated by the palace wall, and I can't see it inside on weekdays."

Yuan Chun said: "The empress means..."

The queen raised the pen and stroked lightly, "These eunuchs don't know what the empress dowager is thinking. They have written down everything that should be written down. If anyone is wronged, just point out a good marriage."

"Yingri, please send this roster back. Jia Guiren, why don't you have dinner with me today."

Dinner didn't work out.

Grandma Chen from the Empress Dowager's palace came to invite her.Ask the Queen to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace with Jia Guiren to have dinner with the Queen Mother.

Jia Yuanchun couldn't be happier, he only thought that the Queen Mother valued him.But Fu Cha's heart skipped a beat: Mrs. Jia Gui is in the Changchun Palace, how does the Queen Mother know?Besides, the Empress Dowager is very well behaved, where did she get the interest to ask someone to accompany her to have a meal?

Thinking about it again, Yingri seems to have been away for more than an hour, and if he hasn't come back, he knows that something is wrong.

Sure enough, as soon as he stepped into the Compassionate Ning Palace, a roster fell in front of him.

From the corner of her eyes, the Fucha family saw Yingri who was kneeling beside her, sighed in her heart, saluted first, and then pretended to be shocked: "What's wrong with the Empress Dowager, she became so angry. But this girl made the Empress Dowager unhappy?"

Turning around again, he said to Yingri: "Quickly apologize to the Queen Mother!"

The queen mother said solemnly: "You don't have to act like this. Let me ask you, have you read this roster?"

Fucha knew that the roster might have been obtained directly from Yingri, so he couldn't avoid it, so he could only reply: "Yes. The minister-in-law has already seen it."

"Why, Lin Daiyu's name has been crossed out?" The queen mother leaned over and asked, "You know, Ai's family ordered her to run for the election. The sign was put down in the first round, isn't it a fight?" Is it the face of the mourning family!"

The Fucha family smiled apologetically: "Perhaps... there is something wrong with this Lin Xiunv. This primary election is judged by the internal eunuchs, and the minister-in-law is not clear."

"Isn't it appropriate?" The Queen Mother sneered, "Eunuch Zhang, come out."

An old eunuch was transferred from the back hall, who was in charge of selecting and registering the names.

"Back to the Empress Dowager. The daughters of the Lin family are very good-looking, and they act properly and behave well. They have already been registered."

The queen mother knocked on the armrest and asked: "Our queen is not the most virtuous, why is it... sour and jealous in this matter?"

Mrs. Fucha knelt down on the ground, her face was pale and sweat was pouring down like rain, but she couldn't speak a word.

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Then, what does Mrs. Jia have to say?"

Yuan Chun hurriedly said: "The concubine...the concubine is all under the orders of the queen mother."

"Your Majesty Jia, you have done something wrong, and you will be banned for three months." The Empress Dowager said calmly.

Yuan Chun hurriedly thanked En and withdrew.

"As for you..." The Queen Mother thought for a while, "Mrs. Chen, please invite the Emperor."

Fucha raised her head in shock, and begged, "Queen Mother!"

"You are the empress, the Ai family can't be your master anymore. Let the emperor decide, your punishment!"

The author has something to say: Don't ask me when the general election is or what the procedure is.Don't ask me why the car-discharging method in the Jiaqing period appeared in the Qianlong period, and don't ask me why Xiunu gave marriages to non-clan members.Jiaqing Daoguang saw it from two banners, and God knows what Qianlong thought.According to the Qing Shilu, Qianlong's five and six years have been thoroughly searched, and nothing has been gained.I only know that this draft should have been six years ago in February.I have driven myself crazy.

Don't think about Daiyu's clothes, I've gone crazy and matched her with orange and purple. . . . . .

After downloading a few old Beijing maps, I realized that I might be a road idiot.

Jianfu Palace was built in the seventh year of Qianlong's reign, crazy.
