Six palaces without concubines in the Red Chamber

0055 Mu Fugui paints his eyebrows before and after the fight, complaining of selfishness and lifelessness

Throughout the dynasties, Daqing was the place with the strictest rules.In the previous dynasties, there were not too strict regulations on the palace people. As long as the maids in the palace don't go too far, it's okay to have more than two servants.Daqing is different, no matter which palace, there is a fixed number of eunuchs and maids, one carrot and one hole.

The Hall of Mental Cultivation follows the rules of the Qianyuan Palace, and there are always ten big palace ladies.The leading aunt in charge is Lanxi, who was originally the first class in front of the empress dowager, but was later assigned to the emperor.There were three others who dialed at the same time, and both of them had left the palace at the full age.There is another named Lan Wan, who was about to be released when she was hiding in the mansion.Unexpectedly, she would end up becoming the emperor's imperial concubine after she made a perfect move.Concubine Wan's achievements are not a secret. Although the emperor is cold, he is handsome and young.As a result, there are more or less maids in the palace who are in a state of mind, and want to go back to the way of Concubine Wan.

Besides Lan Xi, there is also an aunt named Lan Qing.Then there are Lanting and Lanling on the tea.Lan Xin who is in charge of the bedroom, and Lan Yi who is in charge of the account.In addition, Lanliu and Lanwen who gave melon and fruit snacks, and Lanqi and Lanshun who served Simu.In the past, there were ten people who did this.Right now, Lanling and Lanliu were transferred to Qiuhong Hall to serve Daiyu, and Li Shunxiang went to the Shangyi Bureau to re-select two of them.

Since Lan Duan and Lan Xu entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the emperor has never been angry.The eunuchs in front of the imperial court also praised people, one sister at a time, making people feel elated.The emperor suddenly became furious, and ordered all the maids in front of the imperial court to return to the verandah of the back hall.

Lan Xu was terrified, and waited timidly for the first few to go out, then pulled La Lan Duan's sleeve: "Sister Lan Duan, what do you think is going on? I'm afraid..."

She was afraid for a reason, so she did that thing. After all, he is the master, and she was a little trembling when she said that and went back to the house.Lan Duan was taking the time to paint her eyebrows, she had her own set of theories, and when she had to face the holy face later, even if she was punished, she had to kneel down gloriously.

Seeing that Lan Xu was so frightened that she stumbled to speak, Lan Duan scoffed at her: "Look at how courageous that mouse is."

Lan Xu told her that her eyes were red, and seeing her put down her eyebrows, she stood up and stuffed a silver grain into Xiao Xizi's hand.Facing Xiao Xizi, she smiled kindly: "Eunuch Xi, this is the first time I have been punished, so I don't know what happened. This is because I honor my father-in-law and drink tea. Please also ask him to love me and teach me how to be less lenient."

Xiao Xizi is not greedy for money, it's just that after such a movement, her slender hand brushed against her palm, scratching people's hearts for no reason.It's true that he is a eunuch, but who said eunuchs can't like women?

"Sister Lan Duan, you are polite." Xiao Xizi accepted the silver rice balls and was reluctant to do anything, so she told her: "The emperor got angry this time, and I don't know why. Sister will kneel away later, long live see If I don't see you, the fire will naturally not be directed at you."

It's a good idea, and it's hard to get hurt if you hide on the side.But Lan Duan deliberately wanted to show his face in front of the emperor, if that was the case, wouldn't it be a waste of time to paint his eyebrows out of his busy schedule?

So when they got to the verandah of the back hall, Xiao Xizi wanted to draw Lan Duan aside, but Lan Duan gave way to Lan Xu, and squeezed forward by herself, right next to Lan Qing.Lan Qing's eyes were full of comprehension, she glanced at her, but she didn't say anything, she just lifted her skirt and knelt down.

Seeing that everyone was kneeling, Xi Shiyue snorted, cast a sidelong glance at Li Shunxiang, and turned around to go west.

In the room, the emperor was bending over and giving in, trying to coax people, but he couldn't do it.He opened his lips several times, but the last voice sounded like a sigh: "You wanted to leave this morning, didn't you?"

Daiyu could hear a bit of sadness from this sentence, but she would never savor it carefully.She didn't even want to look at the emperor, her eyes fell on the chiming clock placed on the carved dragon cabinet.I heard that this thing is divided into hour hand, minute hand and second hand. It ticks and ticks. If it is not tampered with and damaged, it will never go wrong. It is much more accurate than the usual copper pot.

She didn't answer, and the emperor felt helpless bitterness in his heart.She has never been willing to enter the palace, and she feels depressed and uncomfortable, and he knows all this.Which kind-hearted girl from a wealthy family is willing to enter the palace, and will be trapped in Sifang City for the rest of her life, turning into a bird with broken wings.

In fact, the first time she left the palace, he should have given up.At that time, he was still very proud, with the attitude that if you are ruthless, I will leave.However, this arrogance collapsed instantly when she heard that Lin and Jia intended to get married.On the spur of the moment, he took advantage of Princess Yangyi's illness and summoned her into the palace again because of his own selfishness.

Thinking about it carefully, if this matter was compared to a battle, he would have completely lost on the day he called her into the palace for the second time.He even faintly resigned himself to his fate, thinking that it would be fine, after all, he had to put people in front of him to be at ease.He thought about it slowly, but she kept secretly preparing to go home.Knowing that those who were summoned to enter the palace could not go without authorization, they deliberately chose to bring it up two days before Jia Min's birthday.He has no possibility of refusal.

The emperor couldn't help but smiled, but the smile always showed a bit of loneliness: "The ancestor always said that you are Linglong, I am afraid that Bigan is not as good as you. Now I understand..."

"Your majesty wants to say that I have a lot of thoughts?" Daiyu closed her eyes, although she smiled, her eyes showed indifference. "The emperor keeps saying that he respects me, but he refuses to let me go. Is this the respect of the emperor? How many eyes in the whole palace are watching, you are the emperor, so naturally no one dares to say that you are wrong. Good or bad, it is always right My own fault. My parents and brothers loved me a lot, and now they are being criticized because of me. If I can really stay in the palace without any scruples, then I will truly love me for nothing!"

"I've been busy recently, so I don't know about these things. Now that I know, I will deal with them naturally, and I will never disturb you again!"

"The people in the palace are all the emperor's servants. How to deal with it is the emperor's business. What does it have to do with me?" Daiyu sneered and said, "I've heard too many gossips. Are you afraid of repeating them? Anyway, tomorrow I will I have to go home. The emperor should also understand that the old ancestor is kind and loving. If you really speak up, even if you are the emperor, you will not be able to stop me."

So far, how can I stop it?After all, he was unwilling to admit defeat and wanted to fight to the death.

The emperor's heart felt uncomfortable, his intestines seemed to be twisted in one place, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't speak.She didn't have the slightest nostalgia for him. She used to think that she was loose, but it turned out to be just an illusion of self-satisfaction.She really doesn't like herself at all!

This wave of depression invaded the emperor, and even Xinglong with his chest on his chest became dejected, and his previous majesty was gone.

Xi Shiyue came in to answer, and saw the emperor leaning on the big welcome pillow listlessly, like a gambler who had lost his fortune, and when he returned home, he found that his wife and children had all run away.

He quietly looked at Daiyu, and thought to himself, good guy, he thought she was the most gentle and kind, but he didn't expect such a cold and hard heart, don't eat the weight.

The emperor raised his eyelids and glanced at them, and finally cheered up: "What's the matter?"

I can't tell what it's like, it's always bad.Just now he was on the mend, but now he is lifeless.This is not good, this is bad.

Xi Shiyue thought for a moment before carefully replying: "The court ladies in front of the imperial court, except for Lan Xi, are all kneeling in the verandah. Manager Li is staring at them, and the emperor moved over to take a look?"

He also needs to move away from the more important matters, when he is in a hurry?The emperor frowned before scolding, thinking that this matter was related to Daiyu.Even though it broke her heart from successive blows, she still asked her in a low voice: "Want to see it?"

Daiyu wanted to settle the matter, so she nodded dispensably after hearing the words: "Then let's have a look."

After all, the two got up as expected and moved to Qianyuan Zishi.Xi Shiyue followed behind the emperor, and for some reason, he could see the loss of soul from the aloof Long Live Lord.

There was no kang in Qianyuan Zishili, but a small round table and several bookcases were set up.The emperor sat on the top chair inlaid with ivory made of wood peptide, and Xi Shiyue moved a round stool from the round table to invite her to sit.Daiyu sat on the round stool before looking up.The door of Qianyuan Zishi is not big, and there are two court ladies kneeling on the verandah outside the door. Looking out from Daiyu, the one on the left is slightly older, and the one on the right looks young and immature.The smooth face is soft and clean, and it looks a little plump. Even if you kneel down, you can see the round and plump outline.

Kneeling for almost a stick of incense, the maids were all miserable.In summer, the clothes are light and thin, even if they look dignified in front of the imperial court, they only have a thin skirt with a pair of underpants inside, and a pair of trousers on the hood.These court ladies are usually pampered and do not kneel easily.They are decent girls, unlike eunuchs who have no roots, no bones in their knees, and kneel when they meet everyone.Therefore, even though they all survived in the Shangyi Bureau and learned how to punish kneeling, kneeling unexpectedly for a long time is still painful.

Among them, Yi Landuan is the worst. She is most afraid of suffering, and her family has some roots. She used money to curry favor with her aunt in the Shangyi Bureau.Her delicate skin is suffering now.To be punished to kneel in front of an unreliable county magistrate is simply embarrassing.

Xi Shiyue smiled and asked Daiyu: "The county chief will try the first instance?"

Daiyu didn't think about asking too much, and just watched it.Seeing her shaking her head, the emperor reprimanded: "I'm asking someone else about my errands. Don't eat tomorrow, and ask others to finish the meal for you."

He is unhappy, and loves mean people when he is not feeling well.Xi Shiyue accepted all the unkind words, and Le Diandian told Xiao Xizi: "Blessed are you, kid, you will eat that meal for me tomorrow."

Saying that, regardless of Xiaoxizi's answer, she went straight forward and said in a solemn voice: "Girls, is this kneeling and punishment wronged or not? Do you hate it in your heart?"

Who can not hate it, and suffered unjustly for no reason.

Immediately afterwards, Xi Shiyue said: "The rules of our Hall of Mental Cultivation are explained clearly on the first day when we come in. No one is allowed to have a long tongue, let alone do errands impetuously. Let's talk about it, girls. Whispering your ears and whispering private words by the window of the apse! You still have your life if you say it now, if you slap your mouth and then open your mouth, you will not only lose your life, but the whole family will be ashamed because of you!"
