Ci'an's hand was "relaxed", and his eyes glanced at Cili, which was a hint to Cixi: let go of her hand and salute Cili. www.biquge.info As she wished, Cixi really let go of Ci'an's hand - however, she only let go of Ci'an's right hand, and her right hand still held Ci'an's left hand, and at the same time, following Ci'an's gaze, she naturally stretched out her left hand to Ci Li.

Cili hurriedly stepped forward, first blessed half a blessing, shouted "sister", and then, like Ci'an, stretched out her hands and caught Cixi's hand.

Because Cili held one of Cixi's hands with two hands, Ci'an couldn't help but stretch out his right hand again, and it also became a posture of holding one hand of Cixi with two hands.

At this moment, it can be roughly regarded as "six soft Yi handshakes".

Cixi bent her knees slightly and shouted, "Sister Li! ”

She is a "half-blessed", only the movements of her legs, not the movements of her hands—both hands are busy.

Uh, this ...... Can it be counted as a "return gift"?

The three queen mothers had such an agreement in advance: they were all "half-blessed" gifts - Cixi saluted Ci'an first, and Ci'an returned the salute; Then, Cili saluted Cixi, and Cixi returned the salute.

The rites are all ordinary rites, however, there is a difference between the first and the last, so as to distinguish the eldest from the second, and the third.

Now, is this "process" over?

In addition, "sister" is "sister", and the word "beauty" is actually unnecessary.

Because, as the empress dowager, Cixi's "sister" has only one, that is, Ci'an; Cixi's "sister" is only one, that is, Cili, and other women of the same generation, including the rest of Wenzong's concubines and her own sister Qifujin, in front of her, are all "concubines" status, and on formal occasions, they cannot be called sisters.

Therefore, Cixi calls Cili and calls "sister", and there is no need to add any special reference to it.

Also, "Li" is Cili's emblem when she was a concubine, she is the queen mother now, and her emblem is no longer "Li", but "Cili".

Therefore, the "beauty" of "Sister Li" is not necessary, it simply should not be added.

Of course, because Cili had just been promoted to a position and changed her emblem, it was not too unusual for Cixi to completely change her words for a while.

What my sister said was, "Tong Cili "met the ceremony", Cixi did not forget to pick up Ci'an's words, "Our sister and son, it can be regarded as a reunion!" But, alas, ......"

As he spoke, he still wept when he saw it.

Ci'an lacks the talent to adapt, and the posture of "six hands clasped" is really awkward, and she doesn't know how to persuade Cixi; Cili attended such a "big occasion" for the first time as the queen mother, and she was timid, and she didn't know what to say; The emperor and the imperial husband, limited to seniority and identity, and it's hard to say anything, this scene, uh, it's a little embarrassing to see.

If the Queen Mother of Our Lady said and pulled out Emperor Mu Zongyi-

Fortunately, Yu'er, who was following Cixi, stepped forward and whispered: "Today is the master's big day, so don't be too sentimental!" ”

Cixi's tears came and fell quickly, she smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "Also, look at me!" ”

As he spoke, he let go of his hands.

Ci'an and Cili were relieved, and they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The emperor looked at the empty space and said: "The emperor has been on the train for a few hours, she must be very tired, so please drive back to the palace!" ”

The imperial husband thought to himself: The three "Huang Niang" on the scene, the emperor's "Huang Niang" in front of it, did not add any definite words, but it will not make people unable to tell which one is which, hehe.

At the exit of the railway station, four "golden carriages" are lined up, gilt and inlaid with silver, and in the near afternoon sun, the eyes of the people who are shaking are spent.

The first one is the emperor's, eight snow-white "mellow" horses, and the three in the back, the shape of the car is carved and decorated, although it is exactly the same, and the one driving is also six dark chestnut Arabian horses -- if no one is to guide them, the three queen mothers themselves may not be able to figure out which one is their "Luan".

Ci'an, Cixi, Cili three empress dowagers boarded the car in turn, the emperor was the last to get on the car, and then, hundreds of Xuanjun guards in bright armor hugged each other, and the Luan of the "Four Palaces" entered the Zhengyang Gate in a mighty way.

Cixi was silently sighing in her heart, and Yu'er said softly, "Ouch", and said, "Master, please see, what a big color square!" ”

When Cixi looked at it, yo, it was really big!

In the middle of the chessboard street, there is an imposing flower color workshop, at a rough glance, almost as high and wide as the Taihe Gate, at the same time, it is also like the Taihe Gate, there are three door openings, one large, two small and three. The so-called "chessboard street" is actually a square, extremely spacious, but the grandeur of the regulation of this flower and color workshop gives people the illusion that it has occupied the entire chessboard street.

I have seen a lot of flower color workshops, but it is the first time that Cixi has seen such a tall flower color workshop.

On the top of the color workshop, four huge and friendless words were tied with paper flowers, "Chonggong repays virtue".

The Luan of the "Four Palaces" flows through the doorway in the middle of the flower color workshop.

"'Honoring merit and repaying virtue'-" Yu'er said, "Master, this 'reverence for merit and virtue' is naturally 'respecting' the master's 'merit' and 'repaying' the master's 'virtue'. ”

Cixi sighed softly and didn't say anything.

Luan of the "Four Palaces" drove through Qipan Street, entered the Daqing Gate, and went all the way to Tiananmen Square.

"Oops!" Yu'er called softly again, "Master, look! What is that? It seems to be ...... Elephant! ”

Cixi said angrily: "You little hoof, as soon as you return to Beijing, you will be shocked, why, after staying outside for a year, people are stupid?" What is this place? Where's the elephant......

Before he finished speaking, he stopped.

Cixi also saw it - it was really an elephant!

North of Jinshui Bridge, downstairs of Tiananmen Gate, and on both sides of the Royal Road, there are two elephants on one side, a total of four.

What kind of trick is this?

Also, each elephant is dressed in a brocade and a vase, and the dress is extraordinary.

Cixi had also seen elephants dressed like this - but they were all statues, or bronze or gold, and the elephant in front of her was alive!

Cixi quickly turned her mind: What is this exquisite?

"Master," Yu'er said, "this seems to be the 'treasure elephant' in ......'s 'Fa Driving Halo Book'!" ”

Cixi's heart was shocked.

The Empress Dowager's guard of honor is generally not called "Lu Book", and there is no word "Law Driving" in front of it, "Law Driving Lu Book", which is the special title of the emperor's honor guard.

Belch...... That's not right!

According to the regulations, only in the most important ceremonies, such as enthronement, longevity, and New Year's Day, will "Sheng Chen Fa drive the Lu Book", and now there are several days before New Year's Day, and there is no reason to "Sheng Chen Fa Drive the Lu Book" today!

Is it for ...... Greet yourself?

This......

Impossible!

In the queen mother's guard of honor, there is no such thing as a "treasure elephant"! Besides, even if it is his own "longevity" and "furnishing the Empress Dowager's guard of honor", it can only be placed on the territory of the Empress Dowager -- or Changchun Palace, or Cining Palace, in short, it must be placed in the inner court, and there is absolutely no reason for the previous dynasty, let alone outside the Forbidden City.

As for whether there are "treasure images" in the "Book of Fa Driving" and under what circumstances they can be "furnished", Cixi does not know -- whether it is the outer court or the inner court, all kinds of rules and regulations are too cumbersome and complicated, and many things, without checking the "rules", even the head of the worship room or the official of the ceremonial department of the Ministry of Rites and Rites may not be able to explain it clearly.

"How do you know that this is the 'treasure elephant' of the 'Dharma Driving Book'?" Cixi frowned slightly, "Have you seen it?" ”

"Naturally, the slave maid has never seen it," said Yu'er, "but when I was on the train, I heard them talk about the situation on the day of the emperor's enthronement ceremony, and said that there were 'treasure elephants' outside Tiananmen Square and outside the noon gate—ah, what the slave and maid said was not quite right, it should be like this: the one outside Tiananmen Square is called 'guide', and the one outside the noon gate is called 'treasure elephant', and when they are put together, they are called 'Yixiang'." ”

What is the name, it doesn't matter, what matters is that this is indeed the ...... "instrument" in the "Law Driving Book"?

Cixi's heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.
