Chapter 60: The Birthday Banquet
Leave, such uneasy thoughts gradually spread in Hua Rong's mind.
One night, Hua Rong couldn't count how many ways she had figured out how to escape. When I woke up the next day, I felt dizzy, like I had a thousand pounds of stuff in my load.
"Niangniang, you finally woke up, how long have you been asleep?" Su Xin walked in with a basin, wrung out the handkerchief, and handed it to Hua Rong, "Wash your face, you have to freshen up and dress up today!" ”
Hearing this, Hua Rong pursed her lips, took the handkerchief and wiped it on her face casually, and then complained: "This palace is just a bird in a cage now, there is no freedom at all, no matter how well you dress up, who can you show it?" ”
You can't say it, show it to the birds passing by, right?
But as soon as these words fell, Su Xin burst out laughing, "Niangniang, today's birthday of Concubine Wen Guifei, the emperor will also go, and specially asked all the concubines in the harem to arrive, doesn't this include you?" This is a great opportunity to lift the lockdown! ”
The so-called success or failure is in this move, and now he has begun to think about it, and hurriedly shouted, "Spring, summer, autumn and winter, you two hurry up and bring the prepared things!" ”
The two girls, with their front feet and their back roots, ran in, holding a tray in their hands, on which was placed a pink dress, delicately embroidered with the scene of lotus flowers in full bloom.
The soft fabric, with the beautiful embroidery, just looking at it is already a little mouthwatering, not to mention what a stunning feeling it is to wear on the body.
After being stunned for a moment, Hua Rong was still a little unclear, so, "What is this?" ”
"What else could it be? Of course, it is the clothes specially prepared for you by the slave maid, and it is also prepared for you by the lady before you join the harem, have you forgotten? ”
After such a reminder, Hua Rong realized that there was indeed such a thing.
Because when he married into the palace, it also happened to be the night of the Midyear Festival, the night when he changed his fate.
Mrs. Hua wanted Hua Rong to wear this dress to win the emperor's attention.
It's just that Hua Rong has never had such an idea of wanting to die, so she has been pressing it at the bottom of the box, but she didn't expect it to be so amazing when she escaped today.
Looking at this dress, Hua Rong fell into a small contemplation, "That's it, but this palace thinks this dress is a little too bright, let's change it!" ”
It's not you who celebrates your birthday, so why do you want to steal the limelight that kills people? It's not so fast, and it's not so happy.
After saying that, he sat up straight and didn't give them any more room to say.
"Which one does the lady want to wear today?" Su Xin glanced at the clothes in the tray in a tangled way, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
On weekdays, Huarong thinks about playing with those flowers and plants, planting vegetables and raising fish, but she doesn't think of dressing up, but she thinks that the uglier she is, the better.
Now, the only thing that can be taken is the hand of clothes that Mrs. Hua made for her before she got married, but she is still disliked.
followed Hua Rong to the wardrobe, and saw that she took out a light blue dress from the cabinet, which looked like it was still a little old, it was obviously an expired style, and wearing it was simply the rhythm of being laughed at by people!
"That's it, I think this one is quite good, low-key luxury has connotation, which is very in line with my excellent temperament!"
Hua Rong took the clothes and gestured on herself, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that it was appropriate, and she raised a smile full of joy, but she saw Su Xin directly on the spot, "Niangniang, aren't you really joking?" These clothes are all from two years ago......"
I never dreamed that she would still be in the cupboard!
"That can't be helped, there are only a few pieces of this dress, and I can't wear them so luxuriously on weekdays, but I am easy-going. It's just to go to Concubine Wen's birthday banquet, not to compare beauty, why do you want to show off your flowers? ”
Hua Rong said simply, and began to dress herself, she was not so hypocritical, adhering to the principle of doing it herself, and these things are generally done by herself.
"That's it...... The emperor will also appear at the birthday banquet, don't you really have other ideas? Even considering you're on lockdown, you don't have to keep a low profile......"
But no matter what, Hua Rong is very satisfied with her dress, a concubine who is high in the harem, and she is dressed up with a simple feeling.
I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will attend the banquet, and it is estimated that even those little concubines will not be able to compare, and it will be a bit embarrassing.
However, in response to their doubts, Hua Rong said, "You don't understand, I call it ingenuity." In that gorgeous bush, what if the emperor sees my green leaves? ”
Looking at her eyebrows and smiles, and the light appearance of her words, several people only felt that the air around them was a little quiet, and they really didn't know how to pick it up.
If there are flowers, who is scarce of green leaves?
After Hua Rong was almost dressed up, before leaving, Su Xin pinned a sachet to her, "Niangniang, you don't wear clothes, and you don't bring mage, this thing should always be matched, right?" ”
"Today's sachet seems to taste a little strange." Although Hua Rong doesn't wear these inconsequential gadgets much on weekdays, so as not to affect her farm work.
However, I am not ignorant of everyday things, in addition to the different styles of this sachet, the taste is also somewhat unique, like gardenia but not so strong.
Hearing this, Su Xin nodded, and a smug smile suddenly hung on the corner of his mouth, "This is sent by a father-in-law today, and this is specially rewarded by the emperor." If you don't bring this, wouldn't it make him angry if you turn around and let the emperor see it? ”
That's a surprise.
Hua Rong looked at this sachet carefully, and always felt that something was wrong, "This sachet tastes strange, and no one in the palace wears it, where did the emperor come from?" ”
The most important thing is that Jun Ye was still insoluble in water with himself before he left or what, and today he sent himself a sachet over?
Although he was puzzled, but time was pressing, Su Xin looked at the sundial, and was really a little breathless, "Niangniang, when the time comes, let's go quickly, but don't be caught by those women, and tell you what to do when you go back!" ”
A few people rushed to the banquet, most of whom had already arrived, and as expected, they were all showing off their faces.
But only the flowers, a light blue long skirt, revealing a bit of elegance in this thousand flowers, if you don't look carefully, no one really regards her as a harem concubine.
