Yue Wangshu didn't have much luggage, and Concubine Xiang specially sent some young eunuchs to help carry it, so it was all done in one trip.
The main hall of Huiming Palace is called Huiming Hall. It is five rooms wide and is very spacious and gorgeous. After Yue Wangshu moved here, before his buttocks were still hot from sitting, he went to pay his respects to Concubine Xiang, the hostess, with gifts.
Although Qin's selection of attendants made her suffer a lot, people have to look forward. So early in the morning, Yue Wangshu personally cut a large handful of peonies that were blooming outside Chang Le Hall. They were so fresh and beautiful that they didn't have to spend any money.
The gift is ready!
"Concubine, please pay your respects to Concubine Xiang!"
Yue Wangshu is wearing a Tianshui blue coat and skirt today, which looks like green leaves setting off bright flowers. A dozen peonies are slightly trimmed and inserted into a beautiful colorful glass vase, which is really eye-catching.
No, this attracted the little Lolita out of the inner room, "Is this peony? It blooms so big and beautiful!"
The little lolita is a small one, with a double bun - two small buns on her head, and tied with red agate tassels, which are swaying, making her look particularly lively and cute.
Needless to say, this is the eldest princess Changyu, the daughter of the emperor and Concubine Xiang.
She seems to be seven years old. She is as white as snow and has big eyes, but she is a little short of stature - just like her father, she is very slender. She is wearing a red coat with gold sprinkles and a blue jade rabbit skirt, she looks like a little fairy.
Yue Wangshu bent down and was in the same line of sight as the little Loli: "Exactly, does the princess like it?"
Princess Aoyu nodded her head heavily, "I like it! Is this the peony you raised?"
Yue Wangshu nodded: "I kept them in the flower beds of Le'an Palace before. They bloomed well, so I cut some of them to present to the empress... and the eldest princess."
Concubine Xiang couldn't help but smile: "Yue Cai is interested." Then she asked the maid to come forward and take the large bottle of peony.
Concubine Xiang stroked the huge peony flowers and couldn't help but admire: "This peony blooms so well. I didn't expect that Yue Cairen was also proficient in growing flowers."
The eldest princess threw herself on Concubine Xiang's lap and said coquettishly: "Concubine, give me one! I want to put it on my head!"
Concubine Xiang chuckled and poked Lou Yu's little head: "How many hairs do you have? Where did you get such a big flower?"
The eldest princess couldn't help but pout her lips, and immediately said: "The concubine has a lot of hair, the concubine has a hairpin."
Concubine Xiang was startled and couldn't help stroking her temples.
The palace maid next to her had already taken out the golden scissors with quick eyesight. Seeing this, Yue Wangshu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I'll do it!"
Then he selected one with the largest and most beautiful blooms from the large bottle of peony, cut off the excess branches in twos and twos, then walked to Concubine Xiang and tied the peony hairpin diagonally on Concubine Xiang's bun.
The method of combing and braiding the fallen horse bun is to gather the hair and tie it at the back of the crown, and then tie it into a big vertebra. The silk rope ends in the middle, shaped like a horse belly, and hangs on one side, just like a woman who has just fallen off a horse.
A bright peony flower is particularly lazy and luxurious.
The palace maid Anxiang came forward holding the glass mirror and said with a smile: "Yue Cairen's peony is very good, it makes the empress look so graceful and luxurious!"
Concubine Xiang couldn't help but feel a little shy: "You girl, your mouth is getting sweeter!"
Concubine Xiang couldn't help but stroke the peony on her temples, but she felt extremely happy.
Seeing this, Yue Wangshu said: "There are still a lot of budding peonies in the flower beds in the side hall of Le'an Palace. If the empress likes them, just ask someone to cut them later." - Anyway, there is no one in Le'an Palace now.
, I guess no one would object.
Concubine Xiang smiled and looked at the newly promoted Yue Cairen, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "But the emperor saw that Le'an Palace was a bit far away, so he placed you here with me?"
Yue Wangshu was stunned and quickly explained: "No, the concubine is proficient in the art of body conditioning, so the emperor appointed the concubine to take care of the eldest princess."
Concubine Xiang didn't believe this. Even if Yue Cairen knew some medical skills, could he still know more than the imperial doctor? It was just an excuse that the emperor just made.
However, Concubine Xiang had no intention of exposing it, so she smiled and said, "I'll spare you the trouble." This time, the newly promoted concubines were more shabby than the last, and only the Yue family looked pretty good. Perhaps the emperor wanted to do this.
Let her give her some guidance and care.
Concubine Xiang suddenly sighed: "The Empress has always been very accurate in judging people. Three of the five newcomers who entered the draft this time have already entered Youning Palace..." Concubine Xiang couldn't help but shook her head. Maybe it was because the Empress was getting better.
Due to weakness.
Thinking of his fellow villagers, Yue Wangshu also felt that his face was dull.
"I hope you and Qin Xuanshi will not make the same mistake again." Concubine Xiang said earnestly.
Yue Wangshu said hurriedly: "I definitely won't!" - It's just that Qin Xuan's attendant has already rushed to Youning Palace!
Concubine Xiang smiled again and patted the back of Yue's hand gently, "The emperor must have placed you here because he thought you were of good character."
With that said, he wanted to say to the palace maid next to him: "Anxiang, go and tell the dining room that today's lunch should be more exquisite and delicious. I want Yue Cairen to eat with me."
Yue Wangshu instantly resurrected with full blood: "Thank you, empress!" - a concubine-level meal, which is definitely not on the same level as her! Now she is going to have a feast!
Concubine Xiang couldn't help but smile when she saw Yue Shi acting like a child for a moment.
Suddenly, Yue Wangshu looked at the eldest princess and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Eldest princess... don't you have to go to school?" - It's almost noon!
There was a moment of embarrassment on Concubine Xiang's face, "This skinny monkey, he slept until midnight again today. Before you came, he was making a lot of noise and refused to go to school!"
The eldest princess Lou Yu pursed her lips: "The female teacher can only teach those female virtues, and the books on female training are really boring!"
Yue Wangshu also felt that there was no need to read those rubbish, but Concubine Xiang frowned and was very displeased: "Those are the words of sages, and my daughter's family must read them, but you are so willful!"
Seeing that her mother-in-law was angry, the eldest princess couldn't help but shrink her neck and did not dare to refute.
Yue Wangshu secretly thought that Concubine Xiang was indeed a strict mother, so she smiled and said, "Actually, if a woman's virtues are taught by her biological mother herself, wouldn't it be better than a female teacher?"
After hearing this, Concubine Xiang couldn't help but fell into deep thought. Concubine Xiang did not approve of these so-called "words of sages" and "examples of female virtues". It was just that all ladies must read these things. If she didn't read them, she might be criticized by others.
Questioning women’s moral misconduct.
Yue Wangshu said again: "Your Majesty has always been known as a virtuous and generous concubine. Princess, if you personally teach her virtues, no one will dare to make irresponsible remarks."
Concubine Xiang was a little embarrassed by the praise, but she already recognized Yue Cairen's suggestion in her heart.
The eldest princess's eyes were full of expectations: "Mother, concubine, I don't want to learn women's virtues from Master Zhang, I will learn from you!"
Concubine Xiang couldn't help but glare at her daughter, "You clever girl!" - It's just a show of trying to imitate women's virtues from her! Alas, she is not a loving mother but a failure!
