Lin Qingxue was stunned. She didn't expect that these ladies not only did not blame Shen Wan, but also looked at her with that contemptuous look. That contemptuous look made her feel humiliated. She also resented Shen Wan more and more in her heart. I wish she could explode on the spot.
The group entered Yanfu Palace chatting and laughing. After entering the palace wall gate of Yanfu Palace, they straightened their faces and stopped talking.
There were already voices in the main hall of Yanfu Palace. Those who came earlier than Shen Wan and the others had already paid their respects to the Queen Mother and were talking with her.
Before entering the main hall, a young palace daughter stepped forward and stretched out her hands to Shen Wan.
Shen Wan was stunned for a moment, and the lady standing beside her pointed at the cloak on her body.
This cloak must be taken off when greeting the Queen Mother.
Shen Wan understood and cast a grateful look at the lady. She took off her cloak and gave it to the maid. She said, "Sorry for the trouble."
The palace daughter smiled, knelt down to Shen Wan, turned around and left with her cloak in her arms.
The dress under Shen Wan's cloak is a sky blue double-breasted skirt. The skirt is embroidered with cloud patterns with silver thread. Although it looks simple, it is noble and elegant, and there is light floating around when walking.
The ladies straightened their clothes, put hairpins on their temples, and followed the nun who led the way into the hall.
Although Shen Wan has never eaten pork, she has watched pigs running. After all, she has also watched many costume TV series.
She took a step slower, walked behind an older lady, folded her hands on her belly, looked down at her toes, and walked to the middle of the hall.
"My wife pays homage to the Queen Mother. She is a thousand years old."
Shen Wan followed the example of the previous lady, raised her hands flat in front of her forehead, knelt down and bent over, put her palms on the ground, and made a big salute.
"Get up!" The Queen Mother smiled and raised her hands to the man kneeling on the ground.
"Thank you Queen Mother."
Everyone stood up and knelt down to the four empresses in the hall.
After they got up, the Queen Mother gave them a seat. Everyone thanked them and sat down on the empty chairs on both sides of the hall.
Because Lin Qingxue and Shen Wan were from the same family, they sat next to each other.
After sitting down, Shen Wan took a look at the Queen Mother's palace. This palace was very luxurious, much more luxurious than the ancient palaces in TV series.
The Queen Mother is sitting on the red sandalwood phoenix chair in the middle, wearing a purple palace dress, with gray temples, and a nine-tailed phoenix hairpin. She has a round face. Although there are fine lines on her face, her skin is not saggy. She looks kind and kind. He looked very kind.
On the left and right sides of her head, there were two women in palace attire sitting on each side. They were very beautiful, gorgeously dressed, and very noble. They should be the concubines of the palace.
Shen Wan glanced briefly and saw Princess Ren and Princess Liufang sitting diagonally opposite her. They happened to be looking at her, so she smiled at them.
The palace daughter served tea and refreshments, and Shen Wan nodded to them in thanks.
Lin Qingxue entered the palace for the first time. Although she was very curious about the Queen Mother and the empress in the palace, she did not look around. She just lowered her head and looked at her hands on her legs.
"Fang'er is now fifteen, it's time to talk about kissing her." The Queen Mother continued the interrupted topic.
Xuanyuan Liufang was particularly afraid. On a whim, the imperial grandmother acted as a matchmaker for her and said, "Fang'er wants to stay with her mother and concubine for two more years and doesn't want to get married."
"I'll be seventeen if I stay with the princess for another two years, and I'll be an old girl." The person speaking was a virtuous concubine. Although she was a virtuous concubine, she couldn't bear the word "virtuous" at all. She could talk to death about her body.
A good skill.
A look of displeasure flashed in the eyes of the Queen Mother and Princess Ren. How could anyone speak like this?
The concubine, who was wearing a scarlet palace dress, smiled and said: "Seventeen years old is still young! Besides, for an outstanding woman like the princess, even if she waits for more than ten years, she will not worry about marrying a good man."
"Ms. Concubine Shu is absolutely right."
"We in the Dongchen Kingdom will never find a woman who is more outstanding than Princess Liufang."
Many people echoed this.
This Concubine Shu is the first of the four concubines and the one with the best chance of becoming the queen. She is still in charge of the affairs of the harem. Moreover, she also gave birth to a little prince the year before last, who is also the only prince of the emperor. Originally everyone thought that,
After she gave birth to the little prince, the emperor would make her the queen, but the emperor did not. However, even if two years have passed, she is still the most likely person to become the queen.
After all, among the other concubines, only Concubine De gave birth to a princess.
Therefore, whenever she says something right, there are many people who agree with her.
Concubine Xian pursed her lips and glanced sideways at Concubine Shu. She knew how to talk to please people. In another ten years, Princess Liufang would be twenty-five, and she would have no choice but to go to the temple to be an aunt, and there would be no one else to ask for her.
The Queen Mother was very satisfied with Concubine Shu's words and said with a smile: "My royal daughter naturally has no worries about getting married. By the way, General Song's wife is here?" The Queen Mother glanced at the people in the palace.
When she mentioned Fang'er, she thought of Mrs. Song, because Mrs. Song was Fang'er's savior.
"My wife is here." Lin Qingxue stood up excitedly, walked to the hall and knelt down.
Shen Wan looked at Lin Qingxue who had already knelt down. Her butt had left the chair and she was neither standing nor sitting.
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes, looked at the woman kneeling in the hall, and frowned: "Mrs. Song already has a pair of children, why are you still so young?"
Eh? Lin Qingxue was stunned. The Queen Mother was asking about Shen Wan, not her.
Princess Ren covered her lips and smiled and said, "I made a mistake. This is the person who was given the marriage by the emperor, not General Song's first wife Shen."
Everyone in the hall looked at Lin Qingxue who was kneeling in the hall and covered her lips with a smile. Mrs. Lin didn't even know who the queen mother was asking, so she ran out in such a hurry.
"Oh," the Queen Mother nodded and asked, "Is Mrs. Shen here?"
Shen Wan stood up, walked to the hall, bent her knees and was about to kneel down.
"My wife, Mrs. Shen, pays homage to the Queen Mother..."
"Forgive me!" The Queen Mother raised her hand to prevent her from kneeling any further.
Shen Wan was stunned for a moment, then blessed the Queen Mother, "Thank you, Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother looked at Lin Qingxue and said: "Ms. Lin, you are also exempt from the courtesy. Go back and sit down!"
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Lin Qingxue blushed and thanked her. She walked back to her seat with her head lowered and sat down. Although she lowered her head, she could still feel the mocking glances. She wished she could
She found a hole in the ground and crawled in. For the first time, she made a joke in front of so many people.
The Queen Mother looked at Shen Wan up and down with a smile. She thought that this Shen was much prettier, younger, and more elegant than when she first met her.
She was dressed dignified and elegant, and she looked very calm, much better than the reckless Lin just now.
"The fire bed you proposed is very useful. I have never felt colder at night this winter."
Ever since Shen proposed the fire kang and thought of an avalanche in Beijun, she had always wanted to meet Shen.
Shen Wan said softly: "The Queen Mother finds it useful. It is my honor."
Marquis Wu'an said: "We also have a fire kang in the Marquis Mansion, so it will be warm when we sleep at night."
"Our family is also in trouble!"
"Mrs. Song is such a wonderful person that she thought of this fire kang. I heard that after the people in Beijun installed the fire kang, no one froze to death again."
Shen Wan smiled and said, "I just saw it in some miscellaneous books."
"Speaking of which, I have to thank you on behalf of the people of Beijun." The Queen Mother looked at Shen Wan and said, "If you hadn't thought of the avalanche, the casualties in Beijun would have been even greater."
Shen Wan lowered her eyes and looked at the tip of her nose and said, "This is what the people of Dongchen should do."
Regarding her answer, the Queen Mother nodded with great satisfaction.
"Come here, bring me the South China Sea Night Pearl." The Queen Mother said to the palace people.
An older nun took the order and left the main hall.
Everyone looked at Shen Wan in surprise and envy. The Empress Dowager ordered the Nanhai Night Pearl to be given to Shen. The night pearl was a treasure worth tens of thousands of gold. There were probably no more than five in the entire Dongchen Kingdom.
Even the fourth concubine couldn't help but take a second look at Shen Wan. As the emperor's concubines, none of them owned a luminous pearl! The Queen Mother was really generous to her.
"Could it be that the Queen Mother wants to reward the Shen family with the Night Pearl?" Concubine Xian asked, looking at the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother looked at Concubine Xian lightly and gave her a look like "Aren't you talking nonsense?"
Concubine Xian said: "This night pearl is too precious."
"If it weren't for the precious luminous pearl, how could I have given it to Shen?" What she meant was that only the precious luminous pearl was worthy of being awarded to Shen.
Concubine Xian closed her mouth unhappily. In her opinion, even if Shen had merit, she was not worthy of the Night Pearl. As the emperor's concubine, she could not even own a Night Pearl. She was a country girl. How can a despicable person deserve to have a luminous pearl?
Lin Qingxue was going crazy with jealousy at the moment, but she could also see that this wise concubine obviously didn't like Shen Wan.
