The biography of Concubine Lin in the harem

It's Ji Xia's Children's Love (1)

In the early morning of the second day, Zhu Chengbi went to Zhaoyang Hall early to pay his respects, but saw that the queen was still warm and peaceful, just sitting on the phoenix seat and talking to Mrs. Yu'er in a low voice.When the concubines came one after another, the queen didn't say much, she only mentioned a few things, and the concubines also dispersed.

Not long after returning to Hanzhang Palace, it was Ganoderma lucidum, the female official in charge of Pixiang Palace, who came to pay her respects, saying that Concubine Yi invited Concubine Lin to come over.Although Zhu Chengbi was puzzled, he still got on the sedan chair and rushed over after dressing his face evenly.

As soon as I entered the Pixiang Hall, I saw laughter and laughter inside, and the atmosphere was quite relaxed and lively.Zhu Chengbi took a closer look, and it turned out that Yidan and Hefei were also there, and they were all talking and laughing at Yanyan.Concubine Yi was holding Diji Le'an's hand and was talking with a smile, but Le'an was showing shame. When she saw Concubine Lin coming in, she hurriedly got up and saluted politely, with a sweet voice: " Concubine Lin, Wanan!"

Le'an is now 17 years old and has reached the age of leaving the court. Da Zhou does not advocate early marriage for women. Women in ordinary families start preparing for marriage when they are fifteen or six years old. The imperial concubine in the palace often stays for two or three years , not only to take good care of her, but also to choose a good son-in-law.

Although Le An was born with the same alluring appearance as Concubine Min De, but he is not as shrewd and cunning as his biological mother, perhaps because Concubine Yi brought up Le An, who is much quieter and more respectful.

Today, Le'an is wearing a cherry-purple neon palace dress, with a soft silver lily skirt underneath. The pleats of the skirt flow like snow and moonlight, flowing lightly on the ground, and the sunlight filters in through the thin bamboo curtains, creating a subtle halo Circulation is also a foil to her elegant demeanor, graceful and picturesque.On the hair bun, the pearl-filled, golden and jade-studded wreath hangs down for a long time. Between the movement and stillness, one can only hear the crisp sound of the pearls and jade, like the twittering of a yellow warbler far away in the forest.

Zhu Chengbi was filled with admiration, and saluted like a ceremonial: "The emperor is safe!" After meeting Concubine He and Concubine Yi, he smiled and said, "Emperor Ji's dress today is really beautiful."

Yi Dan was slightly impressed, and boasted: "Of course my daughter will not be bad."

After speaking, Yidan stretched out his hand with a smile, Zhu Chengbi comprehended, smiled sweetly, helped him to sit down, and Ganoderma lucidum hurriedly presented a cup of Huiming green slices.

"The complexion has improved a lot in the past few days." Yi Dan said tenderly and caringly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Zhu Chengbi smiled without showing his teeth, and was extraordinarily dignified.

"Today is the champion of the three-year general election to enter the palace to thank you." Yidan smiled slightly, and slowly turned the jade ring on his thumb, "This year's champion is not unusual, it is Zhang Shiling, a well-known talent in the capital. Therefore, I think I will let you all go to the tower to have a look, after an hour, the number one scholar will ride his horse into the palace to thank you."

Hearing this, Le An's delicate face seemed to be stained with the morning glow, she was slightly embarrassed, and said coquettishly: "I don't want to see it."

Yidan laughed aloud: "Why are you ashamed, there is your concubine mother, concubine Lin, and concubine Lin, and concubine mother! Don't be bored in the Pixiang Palace all day, when Fengtai chooses a son-in-law, he will be refreshed. Don't lose my face."

Zhu Chengbi was surprised when he heard the words: "Isn't the Empress going?"

Yi Dan said: "The empress said she was not feeling well, so she didn't go. Concubine Shu Gui and Mrs. Yu'er thought it was too far away and the weather was hot, so they didn't want to go. Han Jieyu was pregnant, so naturally she didn't want to go either. I put Le Ann will be handed over to you, and you can take her to have a look."

Although the Queen, Concubine Shu and others did not go to the tower, most of the concubines in the palace went together with great interest. After all, Zhang Shiling was indeed well-known in the capital. Many concubines also heard about it.

So, a crowd of people came here, surrounded by pearls and emerald greens, and the fragrant wind blowing, Emperor Ji Le'an just quietly leaned against Concubine Yi, listening to the concubines chatting about Fengtai's selection of a son-in-law in the past.Concubine Yi smiled and said: "Le'an stays in the Pixiang Palace all day long, I'm afraid I'll be bored and bored, if the emperor didn't mention it today, I'm afraid he won't come out."

Zhu Chengbi smiled slightly: "Emperor Concubine has grown up, and her temperament has become more and more calm." After speaking, Zhu Chengbi handed over an ivory-handled double-sided embroidered round fan with mandarin ducks, and said with a smile, "Emperor Concubine, don't underestimate this The round fan and the ivory handle were enshrined from Burma, and the color embroidery is the most exquisite Suzhou embroidery. The craftsman spent a lot of thought on making this round fan, and today I wish Emperor Ji Fengtai all the best in choosing a son-in-law."

Zhen Ningdi Ji said softly, "The concubine mother is partial, and she doesn't even fan her daughter!"

But Le An just smiled embarrassedly, seeing Concubine Yi nodded, he just took over and said, "Thank you Concubine Lin for your kindness."

Zhu Chengbi nodded lightly, turned to look at Zhenning just now, poked her smooth and plump forehead, pretended to be angry and said: "How old is Zhenning, is he still thinking about her husband? I'm not afraid of jokes."

Zhenning rubbed his forehead, stuck out his tongue and said: "If you don't give it, then don't give it, mother and concubine are stingy." After speaking, Zhenning ran away by himself, talking to a lady next to him.

Concubine He smiled and said: "Sister Lin, don't be lazy, you can't handle it with a round fan."

Zhu Chengbi raised his sleeves and smiled softly: "Are you saying I'm stingy? There will be a big congratulatory gift in the future. Right now, it's just a little bit of joy, so let's get ahead first."

Yan Yan said so and laughed, and then he went to the top of the city tower, where the female relatives of all the prefectures had already gathered here, seeing the concubines of the emperor coming, surrounded by Emperor Le'an, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted like a rite.

Concubine Yi is today's protagonist, so she is naturally the most respected one, Wen Ran ordered everyone to get up.

The female family members of all the prefectures stood up lightly, and there were a lot of words, nothing more than praising Le'an's beauty or the dressing of the concubines in the harem.Concubine Yi held Le An's hand, while chatting and joking with the wives, leading a group of concubines to stand on the tower with the best view.

Zhu Chengbi turned his head, but saw Engui holding his chest tightly, frowning, and asked with concern: "Sister En, what's the matter, are you feeling unwell?"

The nobleman hurriedly said: "Thank you for your concern, it's just that I feel a little sick to my stomach."

"The weather is hot. If my sister is not feeling well, she should find a cool place to rest first. You don't have to squeeze in here." Zhu Chengbi hastily called Lianqiao to help Engui to rest, and then called Mujin, "Go get Liang The Imperial Physician came here to show the nobleman, don't be suffering from heat stroke."

As soon as Mr. Engui was helped down here, a sharp-eyed palace official reported over there: "Here we come!"

When Zhu Chengbi turned his head, he saw that the sky was as blue as washing, as clear as a pool of fine jasper, and the sun was shining like gold, shedding large swaths of warm brilliance.Under the city tower, the white marble road runs straight to the city gate hundreds of meters away, and the sound of horseshoes falling on the white marble road is clear and vivid.On both sides of the main road, summer peanuts are gorgeous and blurred, a thousand day red is gorgeous and colorful, grass and stone are luxurious and magnificent, and flowers of various colors are woven into a bright and beautiful brocade carpet, which spreads all the way from the city gate.The breeze was blowing, and the petals fell like rain, like a light rain of broken brocade, which made people's hearts intoxicated, and even the fallen flowers lying on the ground seemed to exude extremely tenderness and warmth.

The leader is a young man in a red robe, riding a high-headed white horse slowly, which is particularly eye-catching against the blue sky and white clouds. His concubines and wives all gave birth to a little feeling of being named on the gold list.

Zhuangyuan Lang got closer and closer, and the falling flowers splashed by the horse's hoof flew like smoke and mist, and the surroundings were quiet, only to see that Zhang Shiling was really extraordinary, without squinting, neither embarrassing nor arrogant, he rode his horse slowly into the palace.

Le An's eyes touched the young man in the white horse and red robe, his heart pounded, and his eyes became a little blurred. Because she was at the front of the tower, she couldn't help but feel the crowd of wives behind her, and her palms were already greasy and wet, so she was caught off guard. , the round fan in his hand actually fell down, but it was a coincidence that the round fan landed firmly on Zhang Shiling's head, and the pain made Zhuang Yuanlang look up. Looking down, Zhuangyuan Lang smiled warmly, bent over and picked up the round fan, then raised his head to salute, and left with his usual expression.

Concubine Yi couldn't help laughing and said, "Le'an, why are you panicking, did you drop that ball of fan?"

Le'an was still a little bit confused, the warm smile just now lingered in his mind, but he just muttered: "I don't know either."

Everyone was laughing, but Imperial Physician Liang hurried up the tower, Zhu Chengbi wondered, "I'm in a panic, but what's the matter?"

Imperial Physician Liang beamed with joy, and saluted, "Congratulations, empress, you are very happy!"

Because the nobleman was pregnant, the concubines didn't dare to delay, so they hurriedly hugged the nobleman back to the palace. Zhu Chengbi had to explain some matters, so he walked at the end, and was just about to give orders to the imperial doctor Liang when he heard a A quiet and gentle female voice sounded behind her: "Concubine Lin."

Zhu Chengbi turned his head and saw that it was his eldest sister, the official wife of Qi Zhengsheng, Minister of the Ministry of War—Zhu Chengxuan.Qi Zhengsheng is well-known in the world, and he is a descendant of the famous general Qi Buchi. The two have known each other since they were young, and they have been in love with each other.

After Zhu Chengxuan got married, he gave birth to two daughters successively, and the Qi family had no successors. However, Qi Zhengsheng did not marry another concubine for the so-called inheritance of incense. He just adopted a boy from a distant relative to raise him under his knees. It was a good story in the capital, and made all the noble ladies envy Zhu Chengxuan.

Zhu Chengbi subconsciously clenched his slightly cold fingertips, suppressed the boredom in his heart, and it only turned into a gentle smile on his lips: "Unexpectedly, the elder sister is here today."

Zhu Chengzhen smiled and said: "Is everything going well in the palace?"

"Don't bother Elder Sister, and help me take care of my father and my mother when I have time." Zhu Chengbi didn't say much, only saying that there was still something to do in the palace, and then left lightly.
