With the soft gauze wrapped around her body, Lin Wanyi felt unhappy when she thought of the bedtime rules that the sleeper had mentioned before, but she didn't show it on her face.
Being naked and wrapped in a brocade quilt was carried into the inner hall. It was a great honor in the eyes of others, but she felt that it hurt her self-esteem.
Unexpectedly, the nun in the dormitory brought a set of satin and plain snow-dressed palace clothes, and served Lin Wanyi to dress neatly.
"Mommy, don't you mean..."
Before Lin Wanyi had time to finish speaking, Auntie Siqing said with a bit of approval in her eyes.
"The emperor has authorized me to serve you in palace attire. This is a rare favor. I am truly blessed."
Lin Wanyi smiled and did not answer.
Others think it is a blessing from God, but she thinks that if a tree is as beautiful as a tree in the forest, the wind will destroy it.
The emperor's favor towards her was either directed at Prime Minister Lin or Concubine Lin. As far as she was concerned, Xiaoxiao had promised to be so kind to her, and she would inevitably be ostracized in the future.
However, this was not something she could comment on, so she had to let the palace maid serve and dress her.
"My concubine will be seventeen in June."
"That's all, let the imperial kitchen bring some light porridge."
She fell to her knees just now, and she didn't see the emperor's appearance clearly. Instead, the man seemed to look at her intently for a moment and then spoke calmly.
As the saying goes, hibiscus emerges from clear water, and the natural carvings are removed.
But in front of the emperor, especially the concubine who was just about to go to bed, how could she have the courage to say that she was hungry.
"I remember that when Concubine Lin first entered the palace, she had a very clever mouth. Although they are sisters, your mouth is a bit stupid."
Jiuwu Zhizun is naturally not hungry, but since she went out, she has only eaten two pieces of cake to fill her stomach, and now her belly is pressed against her back.
"Are you hungry? Can you use some?"
This is the rule in the palace.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
But it was impossible for her to say any of this, so she could only answer after thinking about it.
Hearing her "sincere" answer, the sitting emperor was speechless.
"How old are you this year?"
The white porcelain cup was placed on the Eight Immortals table just now. The palace people had all left, and the only one who came forward to serve the meal was Lin Wanyi.
The difference between a noble concubine and a promise is as big as clouds and mud. Not to mention being stupid, I'm afraid I have to be inferior to others in order to live a peaceful life.
But Lin Wanyi's feet were as heavy as a thousand catties, and her mouth seemed to be sealed. She could only stand there quietly and let the emperor look her up and down.
"Get flat."
The inner hall is larger than the side hall just now, and is full of high-quality treasures. Furniture made of nanmu is placed in an orderly manner, and a faint scent of incense is burning in the Kirin gilt-copper stove in the middle.
"What do you like to do on weekdays?"
"The feng shui of the Prime Minister's Mansion is quite good."
She stood up, walked forward quickly twice, and then knelt on the woven gold blanket to greet the emperor.
Dong Yuzhong was the chief eunuch around the emperor. When he heard this, he immediately came forward and spoke softly.
"Know a few."
The two of them were sitting and standing, and although the distance between them was only three or two steps, it was as if there was a layer of veil between them, making it difficult to get close.
When she was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the greatest official she had ever seen was her grandfather.
After hearing this, Lin Wanyi didn't know how to answer for a while.
Fortunately, she is not a greedy person and will just look for a chance to drink some tea later.
Aunt Si Qing originally wanted to put some makeup on her, but Lin Wanyi had an outstanding life. The more she wore makeup, the clearer her beauty would be.
Lin Wanyi's hand while scooping the porridge suddenly paused. The fish fillet porridge in front of her was cooked just right and looked delicious. However, Aunt Si Qian never said that she could eat at the same table with the emperor. If she agreed, would it happen?
Bad rules?
"I promise that Mr. Lin has seen your majesty and wishes your majesty to be well."
My heart has turned so many times, but my face still looks downcast.
Her heart, which was not nervous at first, suddenly started beating loudly, and she could only calm down by swallowing slightly.
My grandfather was a serious man of few words and very taciturn. I wonder what the attitude of the emperor in front of him was.
And this Qian'an Palace uses bright yellow to the extreme. The most eye-catching thing is naturally the bright yellow curtain of the large dragon bed behind the door carved with nanmu carvings, which looks like a looming gauze. Not real.
Aunt Si Qing led her to sit at the Eight Immortals table and then quietly retreated.
"Readable?"
"No need, I'm not hungry."
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard footsteps coming from outside, which hit Lin Wanyi's heart one after another.
It would be a lie to say that he was not curious. This was the place where the most noble people in the entire Wei Dynasty lived. Lin Wanyi turned around and looked around. It had to be said that it really looked like an emperor.
Soon, the pair of black and embroidered golden dragon boots stood in front of her. When she raised her eyes slightly and saw it, Lin Wanyi was lying if she said she wasn't nervous.
The palace attendants all knew the rules and quickly left after the things were delivered. After a while, only Lin Wanyi and the emperor were left in the inner hall.
After saying that, he seemed to let out a chuckle. It was not loud, but in Lin Wanyi's heart, she felt that the emperor was a difficult person to serve.
"Yes, I obey."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Wanyi's hands folded in front of her body gently pressed her stomach.
Adhering to the rules, Lin Wanyi kept looking at the brocade blanket on the ground with her head lowered and her eyebrows lowered, very respectfully.
"Your Majesty doesn't have much for dinner. Do you need to summon them to bring more?"
It has to be said that anyone who sees Lin Wanyi's appearance will be surprised, even the emperor who has met countless people.
"Your Majesty is saying that the beauty of the imperial concubine cannot be compared to that of a maid or concubine."
When the emperor asked a question, Lin Wanyi would answer. She didn't look like a concubine who wanted to be favored, but like a teacher in a school asking a student.
According to the teachings of Aunt Si Qing, Lin Wanyi should be more expressive in inheriting the favor at this moment, so that the emperor can always remember her.
So I can only carry it hard.
"Don't be restrained, raise your head and let me take a look."
Therefore, after applying only a little bit of moisturizing gel, Lin Wanyi was sent to the inner hall of Qian'an Hall.
"My mother is good at embroidery, so I learned some from her."
As soon as she said these words, Lin Wanyi pursed her lower lips slightly, and her body straightened up a lot, but her eyes were still lowered, showing the docility that a concubine should have.
Soon the person from the imperial dining room brought a white porcelain cup. The lid had not yet been opened, but the fragrance penetrated directly into Lin Wanyi's nose.
In the Wei Dynasty, both bright yellow and black were symbols of the emperor, and they should not be used by casual people. Even if someone like Concubine Lin was able to achieve the goal of one person being less than ten thousand people, the yellow used would at best be chrysanthemum yellow.
So I had to tell the truth.
"I have not had dinner before, so I am a little hungry. However, my status is low and I dare not eat with His Majesty."
"You are sincere."
The sitting emperor's tone was somewhat gentle, and I don't know if it was Lin Wanyi's misunderstanding, but he seemed to hear a slight chuckle.
