Pregnant people are heavy. When they wake up in the morning, it is already bright and Yinzhen has been gone for a while.
Qixi heard the commotion and came in to help Ji Ling get out of bed.
Ever since Ji Ling became pregnant, Yinzhen had already told Ji Ling not to go and express his greetings except during major festivals and when necessary.
At this time, three first-class maids, Qixi, Bixue, and Evian, were waiting for Ji Ling to wash up. After she changed into a comfortable light apricot yellow flag dress, her hair was tied up in a loose bun, and she went out to eat.
Breakfast is lean meat porridge, which has a salty taste and is paired with meat floss, which is very suitable for appetizing.
Ji Ling drank two bowls in a row.
Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the spring moon cakes of the Tiandi family have not stopped. Ji Ling specially asked Xiao Dazi to improve the moon cakes, such as making them smaller, reducing the amount of icing sugar kneaded in the dough, and various other things.
Fruit fillings were all invented by her.
She also ordered people to send the fruit mooncakes to Jiuzhou Qingyan Palace once. As a result, Yinzhen personally praised the deliciousness: he said that the usual mooncakes were sweet and greasy, but this new mooncake was fresh and refreshing.
Ji Ling was secretly happy at first, but after hearing Yinzhen's exaggerated praise, he realized that he just couldn't bear to let her down.
She grabbed a piece of moon cake in one hand and drank it with the porridge. She smiled when she thought about it.
The third princess was sitting next to her, holding a piece of salted egg yolk and meat floss mooncake in her hand. The salted egg yolk was so well pickled that the red oil dripped out. While the third princess was talking, she didn't notice that the red oil had already dripped onto her hand.
Grandma came forward and helped her wipe it clean.
Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the weather is still not very cool. In the time it took to eat, the sun rose brightly. The dining table was propped under the window, and the sunlight came in through the window panes and hit the table.
, the third princess could not open her eyes.
Ji Ling saw that she had almost eaten and was sweating all over her face, so she asked her grandma to take her to take a bath.
The third princess wiped her forehead with the back of her hand. Looking at the beads of sweat, she just urged: "It doesn't matter, I just wash my face. Mother, let's go to the theater quickly!"
Ji Ling thought: Good guy! There is a little theater fan here.
The theater troupe won't start the show unless Concubine Chen comes over. Besides, it's still early, so there's no rush. Ji Ling was a little tired after eating breakfast. As soon as he stood up, he heard an announcement from outside, saying that it was from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Here comes the gift of autumn clothes for Concubine Chen.
These are the clothes for the new season.
Ji Ling thought: At least two-thirds of my new summer clothes have not been worn yet. Autumn clothes are here again. At this speed...
However, beautiful new clothes always make people unable to take their eyes away.
Along with the clothes, the Ministry of Internal Affairs also sent an embroiderer, who was waiting nearby with needle and thread. She was afraid that the imperial concubine might have a few pieces that were not suitable, so she marked them here and took them back to have them changed.
Ji Ling asked Qixi to move all the clothes into the Nuan Pavilion, spread them out on the imperial concubine's couch, and started trying them on one by one.
Most of the colors of autumn clothes are dignified and elegant. Compared with the freshness and elegance of summer clothes, these colors have a more autumnal feel. There is a maroon flag dress with peonies all over it. Ji Ling looked at it from a distance and thought it would be very beautiful.
Old-fashioned, who knew that the effect would be very good if you try it on the upper body.
In particular, the peony flower pattern is exquisitely designed, with complicated embroidery outlines just on the waist. The visual effect makes the person's waist appear slimmer, and it looks like he has lost at least ten pounds.
The second piece is dark green.
Ji Ling originally didn't like this kind of thick green, which always reminded her of the decay and desolation of all vegetation, but as soon as she put it on, she was speechless - as soon as she put it on, this color immediately made her skin as white as snow.
The brightness of the person's skin color has increased several levels, and even the eyes are set off by this color.
Sure enough, everything has its own unique thoughts and different ideas.
Ji Ling tried it on all the way, and found that except for one pink one, everything else was very suitable. Coupled with the newly made imperial concubine Jifu crown, it looked gorgeous, dignified and beautiful.
After finishing all the trials, Ji Ling was sweating hotly. He sat down on the chair, raised his hand and happily asked Qixi to reward the embroiderers.
The leading weaver knelt down and thanked the empress.
Before she came here, she knew that the Imperial Concubine Chen was a good-natured and soft-hearted person, so she boldly flattered her several times in a disgusting manner. She was so beautiful and elegant that she had to wear these clothes.
Only on the imperial concubine can their beauty be highlighted most vividly.
Ji Ling's face turned a little red when she said it. Although he knew it was a rainbow fart, the corners of his mouth still raised when he heard it.
"When the time comes, you can also come and measure your winter clothes for me." She ordered her grandmother.
The weaver's eyes immediately lit up, and she kowtowed to her again with great gratitude, almost falling to the ground.
Her face was full of incredible surprise.
The reward of silver is a trivial matter, and being able to make clothes for Concubine Chen for two seasons in a row - this alone is enough for her to gain a foothold among her colleagues when she returns home.
Mammy went out, but several palace maids were still undressing Ji Ling.
There are four small biting claws under the auspicious crown, which are close to the scalp - it is because the crown is too heavy and the concubine will fall off while looking at it, so there is such a new design to catch the hair.
The starting point is good - now no matter how much I kowtow, I am not afraid that the Jifu crown will fall off.
I just wear it too much...I'm afraid the top of my head will be a little cold.
Qixi and Bixue were untying the knot behind, and Ji Ling's hair and little biting claws were all tangled together.
Evian held Ji Ling's head, and Ji Ling gasped in pain. Qixi was sweating all over, and finally took off Ji Ling's crown. The master and servant all breathed a sigh of relief.
She told Bixue to pack up all her clothes, and then she took Qixi and Yiyun out and prepared to go to the stage.
When they arrived next to Fuhai, they saw Concubine Qian, Guiren Li, and several young concubines waiting at the door of the stage. They did not dare to go in. Seeing the concubine approaching, everyone got down and said, "Give Chen
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, may your blessings be with you!"
Ji Ling raised his hand to signal Jianyu to stop and said, "Are you waiting for me here?"
Concubine Qian smiled with a flattering look on her face, stepped forward and said, "Concubine Chen has not come yet, how can the concubines sit down first? This is a violation of the rules!"
Then, Ji Ling looked at her and saw a big drop of sweat falling from her forehead, just passing through her eyelashes.
Qianbi blinked her eyes subconsciously.
The beads of sweat snaked across her face, immediately washing away a pink mark.
Unaware of it, Concubine Qian raised her hand and wiped it a few more times, and suddenly the makeup on her face was a little smudged.
Ji Ling got off the carriage and said: "When everyone comes tomorrow, go in and sit down by yourself. There is no need to wait at the door. It's hot. Don't go to the theater and get sunstroke. It's not worth it."
.”
As she spoke, she was surrounded by everyone and walked to the prime position under the stage like a star holding the moon.
Special personnel from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the kitchen had already delivered fruit cups at this time. Because Concubine Chen was pregnant, the vermilion and green flesh of the fruit had been boiled in hot water. It was just not cooked yet. Use a good knife.
They are successfully carved into various flower shapes and placed in small white jade-like cups.
Qixi took it.
Ji Ling glanced at it and said, "Here, everyone, have a piece."
