The next few days were very leisurely for Mu Tianxue. Ever since Lan Yi's implication that day, even Yue Dao didn't come to Nianxue Pavilion to pay her respects. Presumably, she didn't want Long Chen to hate her even more.
So far, he has never appeared in Nianxue Pavilion.
This also made Mu Tianxue feel quite refreshed. At other times, she would either accompany Long Chenyi to review memorials in the inner hall, or practice playing the piano in the yard. When she was at Wolong Villa, Long Chen also specially hired a piano player for her.
I don’t know much about Qin, but I only have a fair amount of it.
Nowadays, she has both the Nine-tone Mingqin and the Nine-tone Mingqin score in her hands, and she will practice the music scores when she has nothing to do. As long as she does not use her inner strength when playing the piano, she will not be counterattacked by the Nine-tone Mingqin.
In order to get a better driver's license and avoid being backlashed by it, Lan Yi and Lu Yi often competed with her during the day. At night, Long Chen would also teach her skills and teach her internal skills and mental methods to improve her.
of internal strength.
She was already talented in martial arts and had a very high level of understanding. In just a few days, her skills increased rapidly and her skills became even better than before. Over time, she could control the Nine-tone Mingqin without being harmed.
In a blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival ushered in, and a banquet was held in the palace for the monarchs and ministers to share the festival. The maids and eunuchs were very busy, and the Nianxue Pavilion was decorated from inside to outside, from top to bottom.
As the three maids in Nianxue Pavilion, Qingzhu, Hongshao and Xie Yunlu were very busy. In the yard, they burned mugwort leaves, placed calamus water, rice water, and tied mugwort into tiger shapes.
Small tigers are cut from colored paper and hung on the courtyard door and windows to ward off evil and witches.
Mu Tianxue rarely got up early and stretched out in the yard for morning exercises. Lan Yi has been a sparring partner these days and she has been doing aerobic and anaerobic exercises.
Green Bamboo burns mugwort incense in a corner of the yard, sprinkles rice water and calamus water, red peony root is tied into a tiger shape in front of the stone table, put mugwort leaves into colorful sachets to make, Xie Yunlu makes a colorful rope for longevity.
Mu Tianxue looked at the busy three people and couldn't help but twitch the corner of her mouth. A few days ago, the three of them started to be busy dispersing the turbid air in Nianxue Pavilion. They have been busy until now. Take a look at the hangings all over the yard.
She was speechless about ribbons and wormwood, not to mention she hated the smell of wormwood.
At this time, Hong Shao came to Mu Tianxue with the prepared five-color sachet and colorful silk, and hung the sachet on Mu Tianxue's waist. As if avoiding a ghost, Mu Tianxue hurriedly took a few steps back.
"Hongshao, what are you doing? I won't wear that thing. It smells terrible."
"Mother, this is the exorcism sachet. The smell of mugwort is so fragrant. How can it smell so bad?" Hong Shao took the sachet to his nose and smelled it. He looked at Mu Tianxue with his big watery eyes and said,
He said: "Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, so your Majesty must wear something to ward off evil spirits. This sachet is embroidered with red peony needles and threads. It can repel insects and mosquitoes. My Majesty, just wear it for a few days!"
Mu Tianxue stroked her forehead, pointed at the colorful silk in her other hand and said, "Why don't you wear such childish things for me too?"
Those ropes made of colorful threads were only worn by little kids in modern times. It really left her speechless to ask her to wear such a vulgar rope.
"Empress, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, you should tie your arms with colored silk. This is also called a long-term life thread. One life thread is to renew one's life, one is to be a soldier, one is a five-color thread, and one is a Zhu Suo. It can protect people and ghosts.
"Disease plague" Hong Shao took a few steps towards Mu Tianxue and continued: "This colored silk has the supernatural power to resist ghosts and eliminate disasters."
"Pfft!!" Mu Tianxue simply asked the sky speechlessly. An extremely common colorful rope was said to be a sacred object that can eliminate all evils and eliminate all disasters. Celebrating a festival in ancient times is really not an ordinary trouble.
"Master Xue, you will go to greet the Empress Dowager and Concubine Hui later. When the Empress Dowager sees that you are not wearing the evil-avoiding sachet, she will definitely give it to you. You might as well put it on now." Lan Yi moved her neck bones.
said.
"That's right, Master Xue, you have to wear it morning and night." Lu Yi led Feng Li and Xia Tianbo into the courtyard and said, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs has distributed sachets and colorful silk."
Mu Tianxue glanced at what Lu Yi had brought back, then stepped forward and took the bag of Shen Dian Dian's silver in his hand, weighing it heavily, and then took the sachet and the five-color bag from Hong Shao's hand.
Put it into the sleeve: "Well, I know, I'll wear it later. The weight of this silver is quite heavy, why is it just such a small amount?"
"Mother, that's not silver, it's gold." Lu Yi smiled and shook her head, placing the summer clothes in her hand on the table under the cherry blossom tree.
"Gold!" Mu Tianxue's eyes shone. He opened the purse and saw the golden gold. No wonder it was so heavy. The salary of being a queen is really high. There are at least several hundred taels of gold in this purse.
.
Green clothes walked up to Mu Tianxue and said: "Today, all the ministers of the court and the central government will bring their female relatives to the palace for a banquet. Now, the imperial garden has been used as a resting place for the courtiers and their female relatives. The master has given an order. Master Xue doesn't want to go there if he doesn't like it."
To comply.”
Mu Tianxue put away the gold, glanced at the sky with squinted eyes, turned around and walked towards the inner hall, "Hurry up and dress up for me, please treat the queen mother and concubine well, let's go out and have fun."
An hour later, Mu Tianxue was dressed appropriately and went to the Taiye Palace to pay her respects to the Queen Mother. It happened that Concubine Hui was also there, and of course Lianyue was also there. She greeted the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother with a few polite words.
, so he left first because he felt unwell.
After returning to Nianxue Pavilion, Qingzhu removed her makeup, and she changed into men's clothes, leading Lan Yi and Lu Yi to quietly run out of the palace.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, there was much more liveliness outside the palace than in the palace. All the famous ladies spent thousands of dollars trying to get into the palace for banquets, but she didn't like the lifeless banquets in the palace.
The streets of the capital were covered with big red cages. It was still early and the streets were already bustling with people. There were vendors setting up stalls, some acrobats, and children playing in new clothes. It was very lively.
"Master Xue, you ran out without even using your breakfast. If the master finds out, he will definitely strangle Lan Yi to death," Lan Yi said with a soft voice, accompanied by Mu Tianxue.
Mu Tianxue persistently hit Lan Yi's head with her fan, "I will take you to have breakfast now," he said, dragging Lan Yi and Lu Yi to a food shop, "Boss, here are some steamed buns."
"Sir, please sit inside. There is a seat in the shop. Not only are there steamed buns for purchase, but also the must-eat Lanyu soup during the Dragon Boat Festival." The steamed bun seller greeted Mu Tianxue and others with a flattering smile upon seeing their luxurious clothes.
past.
"Okay, if there are any special snacks, please bring them all to me." Mu Tianxue shook her ink fan, held her head high, and entered the bun shop with a graceful step.
Lan Yi and Lu Yi glanced at the greasy bun shop with wide eyes, then looked at Mu Tianxue's handsome back, and hurriedly chased after him, "Master Xue, let's change places. This shop is small and unclean. In case something happens,
What should I do if my stomach is damaged by the food?"
