The emperor's body carried the fragrance of the grass and trees by the water, as well as the slightly cold and damp dew.
He was wearing plain clothes today, the night was bright, and the lanterns all over the river reflected his clear and clear facial features, adding a bit of solemnity.
Yin walked up to Ji Ling and saw her strange expression. He was startled and stretched out his hand to her, saying softly: "Lingling, what are you doing standing here? Let's go! I'll take you to see this scene. You must like this scene." "
Ji Ling obediently handed her hand to him, and felt the warmth in Yin's palm, holding her own hand and walking forward slowly.
When everyone saw this, they all moved out of the way.
Ji Ling saw that all the concubines were there, all looking at him intently, so he took two steps back slightly and put a little distance between himself and Yin.
Yin walked a few steps and turned around to see Ji Ling lowering his head and delaying to follow.
He was also afraid that her injured arm would be hit by someone, so he stretched out his hand forcefully, hugged her, and then led her forward without looking back.
When the two of them reached the river and stood next to a water step specially arranged for the emperor, Ji Ling was dumbfounded. Sure enough, the emperor's viewing position was different!
From this angle, you can have a panoramic view of not only the river lanterns, but also the beautiful scenery of the Royal Garden!
Due to the time rules of the palace, she had never had the opportunity to come to the imperial garden at night.
Originally, she comforted herself by thinking about this era, and there were no electric lights at night, so there was nothing to see in the Imperial Garden, and it might still be gloomy and scary at night.
As a result, when I looked around, I saw plain gauze lanterns hanging everywhere.
On the opposite side of the river, the sky is covered only by a very gentle freshwater gold gauze curtain, with shadowy patterns of peonies and plum blossoms embroidered on them, reflecting the delicate and elegant look of the terraces and pavilions in the garden.
Because the water steps were very close to the water, Yin took the next step, stretched out his hand to Ji Ling, and helped her down with his own hands.
In summer, there are a lot of mosquitoes by the waterside. Because the royal chariot is coming, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has already carefully smoked it with calamus incense. At this time, the water and sky are quiet, and there is no sound of mosquitoes. Everyone is silent, and you can only hear a little ripple in the water. The sound of filming on the shore.
Yin looked at the stars all over the river, held Ji Ling's hand tightly, and walked slowly along the river.
All the concubines kept a distance and followed behind.
Not to mention that the three to five steps in this imperial garden were carefully constructed by the most skilled craftsmen in the world. Needless to say, there are exquisite thoughts. What's more, in order to satisfy the emperor, the Ministry of Internal Affairs had already tried its best to embellish it everywhere. Elegant and pure.
When you are with the one in your heart, even ordinary scenery can be enjoyable, let alone such a beautiful scenery on such a good time?
For a moment, the two of them walked hand in hand and walked nearly a hundred steps without realizing it.
Yin turned around and said to Ji Ling with a smile: "Lingling, I stayed until August and went to the Old Summer Palace. I took the Kan map and personally selected a good place for you. I will definitely satisfy you!"
Ji Ling looked up, smiled, grabbed Yin's sleeve and pulled it down, and added to him in a low voice: "Your Majesty, remember that the dining room cannot be small!"
Yin thought for a while and said seriously: "The largest dining room in this palace is my Yangxin Palace. The most exquisite one is my inner imperial dining room. Lingling, why don't you be more greedy and just ask for it?" Go to my imperial dining room!"
As soon as the words fell, both of them laughed.
Yin held Ji Ling's hand tightly, paused, looked around, sighed again, and then said leisurely: "Lingling, everyone in the palace only knows that this garden was given by the late emperor. I gave the garden to Si Age Yin as a gift from the vassal king, but few people know that in fact, this garden was originally a hometown in the Qian Ming Dynasty, located at the north corner of Changchun Garden. Outsiders thought it was the late emperor who gave it to me, but in fact it was me inadvertently. Found it, I really like it.
He paused and said, "I really put a lot of thought into this garden."
…
Zhang Guiren was among the concubines in the back, looking at the backs of the emperor and Ji Ling, with a slight smile on his lips, his eyes just relaxed and peaceful.
Maobin glanced at Zhang Guiren with a serious look, and then supported Concubine Qi's arm.
Concubine Qi had a cold and indifferent expression on her face. After walking for dozens of steps, she felt slightly out of breath, then complained, and threw the palace fan in her hand to Hongcha impatiently.
Hongcha was waiting at the side, but he was caught off guard. He caught the empty hand with both hands and almost threw the extremely precious filigree embroidery fairy fan to the ground.
Mao Bi saw what it was like.
Seeing that all the concubines were in front, and no one was paying attention to what was happening behind her, she smiled and glanced away, gently pushed Concubine Qi's arm, and boldly joked: "Is your Majesty... getting fed up?"
Since she took refuge in the Changchun Palace, she had been flattering and flattering Concubine Qi in every possible way. Concubine Qi did not expect that she would ask herself such a direct question. Her face was startled for a moment, and then she became a little angry.
There was a slight displeasure in her eyes, and she turned to look at Maobin with a half-smile, reminding her in a serious tone: "Maobin, this is not something you can ask!"
After a pause, Concubine Qi sighed, and said as if she was mocking herself: "At my age, how can I still eat delicious food!"
Concubine Mao stood up slightly on her tiptoes, leaned close to Concubine Qi's ear, and said in a low voice: "If I were a concubine, I would not care about pampering me, as long as she can't give birth to a child!"
Concubine Qi's eyes turned cold, she snatched the fan from Hongcha's hand and hit Mao Bin heavily on the shoulder.
Mao Bi covered her mouth with her hands and spoke word by word, almost silently: "In the harem, the emperor's favor has always been like a passing cloud, but don't look at the favor in front of you..."
She lifted her delicate chin in the direction of Ji Ling. Although her lips moved, it was almost silent.
Only Concubine Qi could hear her clearly: "The flowers are the same every year, but the people are different every year! If we put the river lanterns on the Hungry Ghost Festival next year, I will never seriously think that those who accompany our emperor are still
Is this a noble person?
The empress now has the most important foundation, and that is Third Brother! There is no need to wait for Yingying Yanyan to disturb your mood. I have told the empress a long time ago that the empress must understand the importance and stabilize the foundation.
The days of limitless blessings are yet to come!”
Yin walked leisurely all the way to the northwest.
Seeing that the emperor had almost arrived at Chengrui Pavilion, Ulanala paused slightly, smiled and sighed at Concubine Yu, who was one step behind him: "In the past few days, I have always felt stuffy in my nose and breathlessness.
I’m out of breath.”
Hearing this, Concubine Yu looked solemn and said, "My queen, please take good care of your body. Is there any imperial doctor who has come to take a look at it?"
Ulanara smiled and shook his head, saying: "It doesn't matter! It's been an old problem for many years! It's easy to make it at this time of year."
She turned her head and commanded the little eunuch next to her, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally: "Go to Kunning Palace and bring me the bamboo Double Happiness white glaze snuff bottle I used this morning."
The little eunuch nodded in agreement, holding the lantern and scurrying along the river, going against the direction of everyone's progress.
His figure blended into the night, and after a while he was blurry and could not be seen clearly. Only the lantern he was holding was exceptionally bright.
