The Concubine of the Red Chamber is a little flower essence

At the beginning of July, Shanggong Bureau also began to be busy.

Master Shang Gong convened the Shang Palace Bureau to formulate a series of regulations for the birthday banquet.

It is impossible to rush into the palace to pay respects to one's birthday. They must enter the palace in batches according to their grades.

There are regulations on where to wait for the summons.

Shang Gong has repeatedly emphasized that when calling, they should be called in order according to the rank of the title, and there is no mistake.

If there is a slight mistake, not only will the emperor be angry, but the empress will also punish her.

The Shang Palace Bureau has compiled a book of honorable ministers from Kyoto who entered the palace to celebrate their birthdays.

Si Yansi must recite what is expected.

At that time, cooperate with the female official of Kunning Palace to call and dispatch.

However, it mainly relies on Siyansi.

In addition, to celebrate His Majesty's birthday, you must wear special birthday costumes.

For the new female officials and female officials, each of them has to cut a birthday suit.

The Shanggong Bureau and the Shangfu Bureau were dispatched together, and the Shangfu Bureau needed a roster of female officials for registration.

Shang Gongju is in charge of sewing.

Clothing for birthday celebrations does not refer to clothes, black yarn with hairpin flowers, carved jade belts, golden silk auspicious cloud shoes, a complete set of top and bottom.

The materials of the clothes in the palace are not different from what Xiao Huajing used to wear.

But there is one obvious difference, the costumes in the palace pay attention to dignity.

The costumes of Rongfu are gorgeous.

mid-July.

Xiaohuajing's batch of recent female officials accepted the assessment by Gong Zhengsi, and all the female officials passed the assessment.

The results of this test were as expected.

The female officials sent by the queen to the Shang Palace Bureau can be said to be the smartest female officials among all the female officials.

Examining the account books of the Sixth Palace, calling for decrees, and the most complicated roster of palace maids, who are in charge of the keys of the Sixth Palace.

You can't do it without being smart.

Passing the examination means that Xiaohuajing can accept the queen's orders alone in the future.

The Wanshou Festival is very busy, and it is impossible for Du Qing to follow Xiao Huajing to give advice every time.

However, Du Qing said that before the Longevity Festival, as long as she had time, she would still take Xiaohuajing to practice for a while.

At the beginning of August, Si Yansi suddenly became busy.

But many local officials came to Beijing to celebrate their birthdays.

These officials are accompanied by their wives and children.

At the same time, many local officials were the "old father-in-law" of Emperor Jiahe.

When the mother-in-law came, it was inevitable that she wanted to meet her daughter who had become a concubine.

As a result, Shangyi Bureau received many brochures, all of which were kind invitations.

The empress sent an order to the Shangyi Bureau to strictly review, as long as it conforms to the etiquette and law, all will be played.

It is in line with etiquette to order to enter the palace.

However, not everyone's family members have orders.

This requires the grace of the empress.

The empress is very kind.

Generally, the concubine's family handed over a sign requesting to bring unmarried children into the palace, and the queen's empress mostly gave it convenience.

Concubine Xian's natal family had a problem.

Concubine Xian's mother and sister-in-law have orders.

However, there is a 13-year-old nephew on the list of people who will be married to the Zhen family.

Over the years, Concubine Xian has been Emperor Jiahe's thug, provoking and suppressing the Empress many times.

The empress almost lost her phoenix seal last time because of the matter of Min Shang Palace.

She has no favor at all, and if she loses her phoenix seal, she won't have to live in the palace anymore.

The empress hated her so much that her teeth itch.

This time, he seized the opportunity of disgusting Concubine Xian, so naturally he would not be relentless.

The empress ordered the Bureau of Shangyi to return the roster of Concubine Xian's natal marriage.

Shangyi Bureau submitted the roster several times but was rejected.

It's either that males don't comply with the audience rules, or they are not allowed to enter the palace unless they are ordered.

For this reason, Shangyi Bureau was also taught by the queen.

Mr. Kou Gongzheng of Gong Zhengsi was also reprimanded.

The empress is used to being kind, and everyone knew that this time it was aimed at Concubine Xian.

Seeing that the empress suddenly became tough in the sixth bureau, everyone was worried: I'm afraid there will be trouble in the harem.

On August [-]th, the natal families of the other concubines all entered the palace.

The concubine De's natal family came in with three nieces who were waiting to be married.

The natal family of the thirteenth prince's mother and concubine Jieyu has all entered the palace.

Only Concubine Xian's natal family has been detained again and again, and has not been approved on August [-]th.

Concubine Xian smashed a whole room of porcelain.

After all, the Queen is in charge of Fengyin, and she can only endure it temporarily.

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, Emperor Jiahe appeased her and rewarded her with a tribute of lychees from the south, so she didn't even bother to eat them.

When Emperor Jiahe learned that the queen was suppressing the concubine Xian, it was rare for him not to intervene.

The nanny in charge of the Kunning Palace couldn't help persuading the queen: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's better to allow it. To avoid your majesty's displeasure."

The queen smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty will not interfere.

The reasons for my refusal are reasonable and legitimate, as long as the Jiang family removes those names that are not ordered, I will immediately agree. "

Facts have proved that Kou Gongzheng's worries are not groundless.

On the third day of September, the birthday of Emperor Jiahe, there is a large birthday dance.

Everything the Queen has is a reward from His Majesty.

Therefore, the supervisor rehearsed this dance and dedicated it to His Majesty as a birthday gift.

The harmony between the emperor and the queen is also a symbol of the prosperity of the dynasty.

However, on the evening of the second day of September, an accident happened.

Twelve of the maids who participated in the performance suddenly vomited and had diarrhea.

Not to mention that there are only 12 people missing, but only one person is missing. This Magu birthday dance cannot be performed anymore.

The number of dancers reported by the Queen is 64.

To have one less person is to despise the emperor, which is the crime of deceiving the emperor.

When the queen heard the news, her face turned pale with anxiety.

Once there is a mistake in this dance, she will not be able to sit still as the queen.

The empress had been determined at the beginning, and she had prepared ten more alternate maids during the training.

However, right now there is a shortage of twelve...

Kou Gongzheng Shangyi Bureau Shang Gong, all of them were so frightened that their faces turned pale.

Once they make a mistake, the queen is wrong, and they will also be punished.

The Shangyi Bureau Shanggong reported: "Empress, this must be deliberately poisoned by someone, with the purpose of framing the empress."

She had a definite object of suspicion in mind.

The queen didn't know that someone had strangled her famous family.

"It's meaningless to pursue it at this moment. I feel very guilty. I'm afraid I'll get you involved this time."

The program list has been submitted to His Majesty for viewing.

Not being able to dance is deceiving the king.

Kou Gong was dripping with cold sweat: "It's because I'm not prepared enough. I'm hurting the empress.

The only way out now is to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Weichen will go back and train the female officers of the sixth round overnight, hoping to gather two skilled dancers. "

This dance has been trained for nearly three months.

Overnight, no matter how smart you are, how much can you learn?

The queen nodded, but said: "The female officials in the Sixth Palace are old enough to have marriage partners, and if they are used, they will be enmity with the minister.

The reason why the young female official was not released from the palace was that she was going to be given to the prince's mansion.

Everyone knew about this matter, once they got to the imperial court and had an accident, it would be a vendetta. "

Kou Gongzheng knows that every year there are Gong'e who fly to the branches and become beauties.

Kou Gongzheng said: "Are there any female officials who are engaged, I will tell the truth when I go back, those who are willing to participate in the training camp, those who are not willing will not be forced."

The queen said: "Then let's try."

Kou Gongzheng returned to the Sixth Bureau with Shang Gong from the Shangyi Bureau, and first ordered all the palace gates of the Sixth Bureau to be closed.

Afterwards, the empress's decision was announced.

Kou Gongzheng said: "Now is an extraordinary moment. This matter is related to the life and death of hundreds of us. I hope everyone can understand."

As soon as this remark came out, the female historians of the Six Palaces responded one after another, and 36 people stood up at once.

The female officer did not move.

The old emperor is fifty years old. If he wants to have a bright future, he must also go to the Prince's Mansion. What is the future with the old emperor?

Xiao Huajing thought it was very interesting and was eager to try it.

But was held down by Du Qing.

Xiao Huajing couldn't explain it: "Learn and learn, it doesn't matter if you don't know it."

Ma Shangxiang also wanted to join in the fun: "Yes?"

Kou Gongzheng was a little disappointed when he saw this battle.

Everyone is a lady and has been carefully cultivated.

Most of the women's history are minor election palace ladies, and there are wealthy concubine daughters.

The mistress of the house generally does not cultivate carefully.

Du Qing whispered: "This year's Lantern Festival, there was a palace lady who was favored because of her good ice play dance, and now she is a talented person by Your Majesty's side."

Xiao Huajing understood in seconds, and retracted her outstretched right foot.

Ma Shangxiang's eyes lit up.

She looked at Xiao Huajing: "Yuan'er, don't go, I want to participate."

Du Qing also understood the situation of Ma Shangxiang's mother and daughter, and said: "There are three or six Lantern Festival dancers, and only one of them is favored."

Ma Shangxiang said: "It doesn't matter, I am very happy to help Mr. Gong Zheng and the empress."

Du Qing held Ma Shangxiang's hand: "You have to think about it, if you run into each other... this road is not easy?"

Xiao Huajing also asked Ma Shangxiang solemnly: "Have you decided?"

Ma Shangxiang nodded.

Xiao Huajing gave Ma Shangxiang a little brow, and gave her a sobering spell: "Then go, I will accompany you all night."

Du Qing also said: "I will accompany you too."

If the dance performance fails, the top and bottom of the six rounds will be affected, only the responsibility is divided.

Kou Gongzheng was anxious in her heart, she had agreed not to persecute, but she did not dare to persecute anyone.

She ordered Shang Gong from the Shangyi Bureau to take people down for training.

Kou Gongzheng waved his hand and said: "Let's go, everyone, rest early today, don't delay tomorrow's errands."

The banquet will begin tomorrow at Si o'clock.

In the sixth game, he had to get up and stand by at five o'clock.

Ma Shangxiang stepped forward to salute at this time: "Master Gongzheng, my daughter has practiced dancing at home for a while, and she is willing to share the worries for your empress and adults."

Kou Gong is just a widow.

She didn't want to ruin her way of earning a living, so she was pleasantly surprised when she heard the words, and stepped forward to hold Ma Shangxiang: "Good boy."

Du Qing and Xiao Huajing followed.

Kou Gongzheng's eyes lit up, but he stretched out his hand to stop him: "You guys...forget it."

She can't afford to offend Du Shangshu and Rong Guogong.

Ma Shangxiang smiled: "Your Excellency misunderstood, the two of them are here to cheer up your courtiers."

Kou Gongzheng said: "Nothing will happen, you all go back to rest quickly, there is no room for any mistakes in tomorrow's errands."

Xiaohuajing took Ma Shangxiang's hand: "If we don't go and take a look, we won't be able to sleep when we go back."

Du Qing also said: "Master Gong Zheng, if something like this happens, if we don't take a look, how can we feel at ease."

Du Qing and Xiao Huajing accompanied Ma Shangxiang to the Shangyi Bureau.

The rest were sent back.

The participating female historians and female officials must first follow the instructions and dance to the rhythm.

Master Sidong can tell at a glance who has a bad sense of music.

Eliminate more than half at once, leaving only nine people.
