Chapter 97, people are more beautiful than flowers
In the afternoon of the next day, Wei Jiashu put on the azure dark flower dress and arrived at the peony garden according to the time written in the invitation.
Just like in the garden, I saw that it was purple and red, not only peonies, but also the concubines' dresses were more colorful and dazzling than in the past.
Presumably, Wei Jiashu's azure shirt is extremely low-key.
It's just that she is not low-key, not to mention the unique grace of the harem, plus she is pregnant, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Wei Jiashu glanced at the garden, most of the concubines were gathered in the quadrangular glazed pavilion in the middle, and the four concubines were there, but the host of the concubine and Concubine Li had not yet come.
Wei Jiashu had to go into the pavilion and salute the four concubines.
Concubine Mi covered her lips and chuckled: "Wei Meiren is also dressed too plainly today, right?" ”
The concubine Xu, the head of the four concubines on the side, smiled and said: "Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving, people look beautiful, and naturally look good in everything." It's not like this palace, no matter how brightly dressed it is, it's still old! ”
The last sentence of the concubine, Wei Jiashu listened, it was more like talking about the concubine again. Concubine Mi is wearing a long jacket with a crimson string lotus placket today, and the red gold hairpin on her head is also inlaid with rubies, and the end is bright red and gorgeous, but the more so, the more cheesy it looks.
And Concubine Mi just pouted, and didn't seem to hear the insinuation in Concubine Jin's words.
Wei Jiashu hurriedly smiled and said, "Concubine Niangniang is only in her twenties, where is she old?" ”
Concubine Jin covered her lips and giggled, "Wei Meiren is really sweet!" ”
While laughing, I could only hear a eunuch shouting from outside: "The concubine has arrived-"
Xuan even saw a gilded spacious instrument being carried by four eunuchs, and slowly walked into the peony garden.
The concubines present hurriedly got up to greet them, and the concubines bowed unevenly, and a warbler whispered: "Please concubine Niangniang!" ”
Xia Guifei sat on the ceremony, looking at the concubines who were bending their knees to worship, her face showed a look of self-satisfaction, she was supported by the personal palace maid and got off the ceremony, and then smiled and said: "All sisters are exempt!" ”
Wei Jiashu secretly slandered himself: If he loses his power, the faction is even bigger.
Xia Guifei glanced at everyone present, and couldn't help but change her face, "Why didn't Concubine Li come?" ”
Xu Min, the chief eunuch standing not far from the pavilion, hurriedly stood up and replied: "Today, Ye Cainu has morning sickness, and my mother went to visit early in the morning, so I will come later today, and I ask the concubine to forgive me." ”
For the sake of the imperial heir, how dare you not forgive even if it is a concubine?
Xia Guifei's nose was crooked: "Concubine Li is so virtuous!" ”
Xia Guifei snorted coldly again, "It seems that Hui Jieyu is coming later!" ”
Xu Min said cautiously: "Hui Jieyu has been taking care of Ye Cainu for the past few days, and she is flawless, I'm afraid it's ...... I can't come. ”
It's a good flower appreciation, and two concubines in succession gave the concubine a look, and they all used Ye Cainu's stomach as a reason!
Xia Guifei was so angry that she gritted her teeth: "I hope that Ye Cainu can give birth to a prince, otherwise it will be in vain for Concubine Li and the Gu family to serve like this!" ”
How is it that a man of high shall serve a man of low rank?
But no one in the audience dared to refute, and almost no one even dared to say anything.
Only Concubine Mi stepped forward with a smile, "Isn't it!" A concubine, a Jieyu, serves a little girl on the pole, and she is not afraid of breaking her blessings! ”
With Concubine Mi helping to ridicule her like this, Concubine Xia suddenly felt a little more comfortable, and she glanced up and down at Concubine Mi, "You are dressed up bright and festive today, which is very much in line with the heart of the palace." "-Of course, it is bright and festive, but it is somewhat cheesy when worn on the concubine. The concubine said secretly in her heart.
Concubine Mi smiled with a bit of flattery: "Today, the concubine Niangniang set up a banquet in the peony garden to enjoy the flowers, and the concubine was afraid of being compared to these peony flowers, so she dressed a little brighter!" ”
As she spoke, Concubine Mi turned her gaze to Wei Jiashu, who was silent in the corner: "It's Wei Meiren's beautiful appearance, and she is not afraid of being compared to peony flowers, so she dresses so plainly." ”
Wei Jiashu: Ma Dan, the old lady dresses plainly, just to keep a low profile!!
As a result, someone didn't let her keep a low profile!
Xia Guifei really shifted her gaze to Wei Jiashu, and it was difficult to hide her jealousy in the arrogance in her eyes, "Wei Meiren is indeed a first-class beauty, the so-called 'people are better than flowers', but that's it!" ”
Wei Jiashu forcibly squeezed out a smile: "The concubine has won the prize." ”
Xia Guifei endured her sourness, and glanced at Wei's flat waist and abdomen, "The boat and car are tired, is there any discomfort for Wei Meiren?" ”
Wei Jiashu hurriedly curtsied: "Thank you for your care, the concubine is fine." ”
Xia Guifei nodded, "You are not as delicate as the Ye family!" ”
As she spoke, Xia Guifei snorted lightly, and it was difficult to hide the disdain in her eyes, "A little concubine from a palace maid, this body is more hypocritical than a noble girl from a family!" ”
Wei Jiashu frowned secretly, why wasn't she a palace maid? Xia Guifei's words, Shengsheng despised all the concubines from palace maids present.
Due to the cancellation of Tianze's nine-year draft, there are really many palace maids in this harem, such as Ye Cainu, who is pregnant, Luo Cainu in the palace, and Wu Jieyu, who is still in confinement in the Forbidden City, as well as concubines, concubines, and concubines......
For a while, the faces of several female queens present turned a little pale.
Concubine, it still hasn't changed in her bones.
When there was silence in the garden, there was laughter: "The main palace is late!" Please don't blame the concubine! ”
Isn't it Concubine Li?
Seeing a bright and luxurious concubine, Wei Jiashu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, this eldest sister can be regarded as coming.
In the harem, only Concubine Li can fight with the concubine.
Xia Guifei glanced at Concubine Li coldly, "This palace still thinks that Concubine Li is like the Gu family, so she doesn't plan to come today!" ”
Concubine Li smiled Yan Yan: "How come? The main palace is also still thinking about the scenery of the peony garden! But Hui Jieyu is really flawless, and she won't blame her if she wants to come to the concubine, right? ”
Xia Guifei was so angry that her face turned blue, "Hmph, it's just right that she doesn't come!" Save yourself from making Hongu angry! ”
Wei Jiashu: If Hui Jieyu doesn't come, the concubine will be even more angry!
Concubine Mi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Concubine Niangniang, today's beautiful scenery, don't be disturbed by unworthy people!" Look, the red of the first case over there is very positive, which is very commensurate with your bearing! ”
Concubine Mi's three or two sentences of praise finally pulled the concubine back from the brink of rage.
The red peony in the first case is extremely red, and Concubine Mi touted it, but didn't it tickle the most itchy part of the concubine's heart?
Xia Guifei was immediately overjoyed, and even asked someone to cut the largest and most colorful red peony of the first case, and put it on the sideburns of her peony bun.
Wearing a palm-sized flower, this ...... Sort of that. Wei Jiashu couldn't find an adjective in his mind for a while.
But fortunately, the concubine was finally led away, and Wei Jiashu hurriedly sat on the beauty leaning in the pavilion to rest.
Concubine Li sat on a chair beside her, swaying a peony fan in her hand, and said with a smile: "Look at this, this is tired? ”
Wei Jiashu smiled bitterly: "I'm a little tired." "-This is probably the disadvantage of being favored, don't try to be low-key anywhere.
Concubine Li covered her mouth and smiled, she said in a low voice: "It's not because you are favored, if you are a beauty who is not favored, Xia Guifei is not rare to bully." ”
Wei Jiashu was speechless.
