Xianyue suddenly smiled and said: "Isn't it true? I am really confused, and I still call each other with my original status. I hope Concubine Yi is not weird."
Huang said seriously: "I already know that it was my concubine who proposed to the emperor to seal the six palaces. It is my concubine's credit that I can be where I am today and not be subordinate to the Keliye family. How can I dare to be weird?"
"I, my concubine, am now only thinking about how to repay your kindness to the empress."
Xianyue smiled and shook her head: "Concubine Yi said something serious, I just mentioned it casually, how dare you take credit."
"No." Huang said seriously: "I remember that when the empress came to my palace a few days ago, she said she had thought of a way, but she refused to explain it clearly. Now that I think about it, it should be the way to seal the Sixth Palace, right?"
Xianyue did not deny it, nodded and said: "Concubine Yi is attentive, yes, I did think of such a way at that time. The auspiciousness can bring about the promotion of Concubine Yu, and naturally it can also bring about the promotion of others; after this great sealing ceremony
Palace, even if Concubine Yu gives birth to a child and is named Concubine Yu, it will be nothing."
"That's why I say that I don't know how to repay the empress." Faced with Huang's repeated words of gratitude, Xianyue smiled and said: "Didn't Concubine Yi give me a luminous pearl before? Quan Dang
That’s the reward.”
Huang shook her head repeatedly and said: "How can this happen? That bead was used by my concubine to congratulate the empress on her canonization. How can it be compared with what happened this time?"
Xianyue said: "It's okay if I say yes. If you say thank you again, you will be alienated from me."
Seeing her say this, Mrs. Huang had no choice but to keep her gratitude in her heart. After sitting like this and saying a few words, she suddenly laughed. Zhichun asked curiously: "Empress, why are you laughing?"
"I've thought about Concubine Yu, and her face must be very pretty at the moment." Huang said while smiling: "She thought she could reach heaven in one step, but she didn't expect that your master would open up so many paths to heaven in one go.
Article, but fell behind.”
Zhichun also laughed when he heard this, "Well, if the devil is one foot high, the Tao is one foot high!"
Xianyue said amusingly: "You are both Tao and demon. When did you become a Taoist? This is really nonsense."
Zhichun stuck out his tongue, lowered his head and said nothing. Huang said with a full smile: "No matter what, this incident will be beneficial to the empress; at least those who benefited from this seal will remember the empress' kindness.
.”
She was able to find out that it was Xianyue's idea to seal the Sixth Palace, and others could naturally find out as well. In fact, people have been coming here to express their gratitude to Xianyue in the past two days.
Xianyue smiled faintly and said: "The kindness in the palace comes and goes quickly. You will forget it after a few days. How can you always remember it?"
Huang said solemnly: "I don't know what other people are thinking, but I will always remember it and never forget it."
Facing her words, Xianyue nodded gently and said, "I know this and have never doubted it."
The following days are busy and cumbersome for Xianyue. So many people have to perform the canonization ceremony on the same day. Gold books, gold seals, and court uniforms are all indispensable. Although the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will prepare them.
, but she had to look at them one by one to avoid missing them and making a joke.
In addition, she had to devote her time to preparing for the New Year's Eve family dinner. The two things combined made her so busy that after the imperial concubine's court dress was ready, she didn't even have the time to try it on.
In the midst of such intense busyness, it was finally December 20th, when it was still dark, and many palaces in the Eastern and Western Twelve Palaces lit up lamps, and palace residents were busy going in and out to wash their masters.
The Yanxi Palace was no exception. After A Luo's skillful dressing up, Xia Yue put on a golden gauze, flat, gold and colorful embroidered gold dragon-style court robe. There were also court skirts, court gowns, court gowns, etc., all with
The imperial concubine made the same one, but the color was golden. Then Zhichun took three sets of beads, one was honey amber, two were coral, and the ribbon was golden.
Se. Aluo then took two pairs of golden dragon pythons holding east pearls and put them on Xianyue, two on each side. Each golden dragon held two third-grade east pearls. After that, he wore a gold knot to tie his hair. The golden knot was composed of
It consists of a gold hoop and a string of beads hanging from the back. The imperial concubine is like an imperial concubine, with twelve golden clouds engraved on it and three rows of beads.
Finally, Qi Kuan carefully held up the imperial crown. There were three layers on the top of the crown. Each layer was supported by seven golden phoenixes. Each phoenix was decorated with east pearls and pearls. Zhai bird hanging pearls were placed in two rows in three rows. There were 192 pearls in total.
pellets.
After getting dressed up, Zhichun said in amazement: "Why do you feel like you don't recognize your master anymore? It's like you've become a different person."
Qi Kuan raised his chin and said: "It's natural. My master used to be Concubine Xian. After today, she is the serious Concubine Xian. Besides the Queen, she is the first person in the palace."
Xianyue stood up, glanced at him, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I am still my palace, nothing has changed."
Zhichun knelt down and smoothed the clothes carefully for Xianyue, then smiled and said: "In the past, my slave only thought that my master was as beautiful as a fairy. Now it seems that in addition to his beauty, there is also a kind of majesty, but people dare not look at him for a long time."
Qi Kuan laughed softly and said: "Except for the Emperor and the Queen Mother, who would dare to stare at our master all the time, unless they want to commit the crime of disrespect."
A Luo scolded: "You two are so talkative. It's almost time. Help the master out quickly. Don't miss the auspicious time for the canonization."
The place where concubines are conferred is usually the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Officials of Honglu Temple will first set up a festival table in the middle of the Hall of Supreme Harmony and place the concubine registration table on the left side; at the same time, a festival table will also be set up in the concubine palace.
This is a piece of incense.
Because of the large number of people being conferred this time, it was particularly grand. Officials from the Ministry of Rites, the Cabinet, and the Qin Tian Jian were all waiting in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Hongli was sitting on top. After being conferred, all the concubines had to kneel down and worship him.
.Originally, the concubines were required to salute the queen, but because the queen was under confinement, this ceremony was waived.
When the Xianyue arrived, it was just dawn, but Jin, Huang, Keliete, Lu and others had already arrived. They were waiting outside the palace gate. When they saw the Xianyue appearing, they all saluted her. Concubine Yu
When he stood up, he glanced at her
A trace of enthusiasm flowed in her eyes; compared with this dress, the concubine's court dress she was wearing was really shabby. She secretly swore in her heart that one day, she would stand in Taihe wearing that dress.
In front of the palace.
Xianyue didn't know what Yu Bi was thinking. Even if she knew, she would laugh it off, because... whether Yu Bi would survive until that time is anyone's guess.
After the canonization ceremony officially began, Xianyue was the first person to enter the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Under the guidance of the etiquette officer, she knelt in front of the ceremony table, and the official of the Ministry of Rites read out the canonization text. After the announcement, the conferment of canonization began.
, the imperial concubine is a golden treasure in a gold book, and the female officials in the palace kneel to receive it, and then grant it to Xia Yue. After Xia Yue receives it, she bows six times, kneels three times and kowtows to Hongli.
Hongli raised his hand and said warmly: "Concubine Xian, please rise!"
