The tenth day of October, a day that means perfection, is the day when Yun Shang and Hairpin are worn.
"Fortunately, it's late autumn now, and the weather is getting colder. If it's hot in summer, wearing the three-layer palace dress here with three layers outside, I don't know how hot it will be." Qin Yi checked the requirements for the ceremony.
While using the clothes, he murmured in a low voice, "Princess, yes, the clothes for picking clothes, the first one, the second one, and the third one are all here. The last long-sleeved dress is so beautiful. The princess will definitely look stunning in it."
There’s no way around it.”
Yun Shang nodded, but felt a little regretful in her heart, "It's a pity that my mother and concubine can't see it."
Hearing this, Qin Yi also sighed, "Master must really want to see the princess grow up."
The two sat for a while and then heard Yun Shang calling outside, "Princess, it's almost time. Aunt Xiuxin came to urge you. She said that everything is ready and the guests are almost here. Let the princess move to Huazhang Palace."
Yun Shang's haircut ceremony was held in the outer palace of Huazhang Palace. There were many spectators. The first, second and third hairdressing ceremonies were held slowly and grandly. Emperor Ning gave Yun Shang a nickname, Fengyu, Yun Shang.
After bowing to the guests, the ceremony is considered complete.
After the ceremony was completed, all the guests were taken to Mingyue Tower on Penglai Island, and the palace banquet began.
Emperor Ning and the Queen should be in the main seats. On the left below is Yun Shang, who is today's hairpin. On the right is King Jing Luo Qingyan. Hua Jing is sitting below Yun Shang.
When the palace maid brought Hua Jing to her seat, Yun Shang clearly saw that Hua Jing paused slightly. After standing for a moment, she walked to the seat and sat down as if nothing had happened. She turned her head and said to Yun Sang with a smile.
, "My sister is so beautiful today."
Yun Shang lowered her head, her face slightly red, "Sister Huang, please stop teasing Chang'er."
At the moment when he lowered his head, Yun Shang felt someone's eyes falling on him. When Yun Shang raised his head, he saw Prince Jing sitting opposite him staring at him, his eyes as bright as a torch, making it impossible to escape.
Yun Shang looked over, but he just took the wine, took a sip, and looked away.
The palace banquet began with the same dancing girl's performance that has remained unchanged for thousands of years. The dancing girl danced a few songs and then retreated, and the sound of silk and bamboo gradually became softer.
"Today is the day for Shang'er and hairpins. Shang'er also specially prepared an embroidery. Many of you here are experts in this field. You might as well comment on it." Empress Yuanzhen smiled, waved, and
Two eunuchs came out carrying the embroidery.
Yun Shang lowered his head and raised the corners of his mouth with a hint of ridicule.
The cloth covering the embroidery was lifted, and Yun Shang heard a voice of admiration, "This lotus is so lifelike. From a distance, it seems like it will move with the wind at any time. It is really beautiful."
Yun Shang raised her head and saw several women walking in front of the embroidery and inspecting it carefully, "The stitching is neat and the color is elegant. It is a rare and good work. Just looking at the embroidery method, it should be
As far as the Xiang embroidery school is concerned, my daughter knows that the best embroiderer of Xiang embroidery in the imperial city should be Princess Hua Jing, but I don’t know that Princess Huiguo is also quite accomplished in this art. However, the technique of narrowing the needles is almost the same.
They have the same origin as Princess Hua Jing, could it be that Princess Huiguo and Princess Hua Jing studied under the same person?"
Yun Shang turned her head to look at Hua Jing, who was sitting next to her, and saw that she was looking at him, with a somewhat panicked expression. She looked at him with a worried look on her face, as if she was very worried about herself. Yun Shang smiled lightly, stood up, and
He walked to the embroidery and stood in front of it. After looking at it for a while, he said, "Sister Huang's embroidery skills are really outstanding." After saying that, she looked at the crowd with a smile and said, "It was my mother who didn't make it clear just now that this embroidery is from my princess."
It was completed together with the imperial sister. However, I was the one who painted the painting, while the imperial sister was in charge of the embroidery. My father often said that only with family and harmony can everything prosper, and the royal family is also a family. Today is the day of my princess and her hairpin. My princess
I thought that if I could complete a gift with the imperial sister, it would symbolize the harmony between the sisters, and it would live up to my father’s expectations.”
"Really? Where is the painting? Let me see the painting painted by Chang'er." Upon hearing this, Emperor Ning's eyes revealed a bit of surprise, and he quickly patted the armrest of the chair and said.
Yun Shang turned her head and gave Qin Yi a few instructions, and Qin Yi left the Mingyue Tower. After a while, she came in with a scroll. Manager Zheng quickly took it and unfolded it in front of Emperor Ning.
.
"Master Wu Na is not only a Buddhist eminent monk, but also quite accomplished in painting. Chang'er stayed in Ningguo Temple for seven years and learned some lessons from Master Wu Na when he had nothing to do. However, Chang'er was not very talented and could learn little.
It's just fur." Yun Shang said softly.
"The lotus leaves are strong but not bloated, crisp and tender but not weak. The lotus flowers are elegant and flexible, and the petals are stretched out like Chang'e stretching her sleeves. Jing'er's embroidery skills are very good, but it has lost the flexibility of the lotus flowers.
By the way, Emperor brother, your paintings are the best among all the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty. Come and see how Shang'er's lotus painting is?" Emperor Ning praised a few words and asked the eunuch to turn the painting over.
, facing the guests below.
When King Jing heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at the painting, then looked at Yun Shang, and then said, "The painting is good. I'm afraid there is no so-called talented man and beautiful woman in this imperial city who can compare with it. This method is not like what ordinary boudoir girls are used to."
, leisurely and calm, with quite a flavor.”
"I heard that Princess Yunshang has not been able to read a word since she was a child. She never expected that a painting would be praised by the emperor and Prince Jing. However, I don't know if it was really painted by me. Wei Chen remembers, wasn't there a painting last year?
A wealthy lady wanted to impress everyone at her haircut ceremony, so she went to get a famous painting and said it was painted by herself, but people saw it at a glance. This is really making people laugh."
A lazy voice rang out. Yun Shang turned around and saw a slightly familiar face. Yun Shang smiled slightly. It turned out to be the prime minister's grandson Li Luo. He had only seen him a few times in his previous life, but he didn't.
They often target themselves, but they are indeed a family.
Turning around again, I saw a familiar face appearing among the guests. Yun Shang paused and clenched his hands in his sleeves. It had been a long time since he had seen her. Yun Shang smiled. The man seemed to think that Yun Shang was talking to him.
He smiled and returned the smile calmly.
Yun Shang only felt that the coldness in her heart was getting worse. She turned her head to look at Li Luo and said with a smile, "I am ashamed to say that when I was in the palace before, the imperial sister often came to Chang'er's palace to cry and complain about the Taifu.
He was too harsh and beat her often, which made him very unhappy with the queen. He felt that the queen was also a girl, so how could she be beaten? She was also afraid of being beaten, so she didn't dare to go to class, and she cried and begged her mother to let her go.
Don't let Chang'er learn from Taifu. My mother has always doted on me, so she agreed. When we arrived at Ningguo Temple, Abbot Xu Shiwu was very tolerant and knew how to teach through fun. Even if it was the running water in the mountains, he would come face to face.
Abbot Wu Na also taught me a lot of fun about the wind, so I became interested in learning."
As soon as Yun Shang finished speaking, a white-bearded minister hurried out and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty is aware that I have never beaten Princess Hua Jing."
"You obviously don't want to learn, but you blame Princess Hua Jing. It's really shameless." Li Luo said softly, but every word passed into Yun Shang's ears.
Emperor Ning may have heard it faintly. He saw veins popping up on his forehead. He was about to get angry when he heard a cold voice, "There is only one truth. It is very simple to prove it. Let Princess Huiguo do it in front of everyone."
