MTL - Kunning-Chapter 23 enter the palace
After saying this, Jiang Xuening didn't care what she looked like, turned around and left.
Many times she couldn't tell what kind of emotion she had for Wanniang.
But all the tragedies in her previous life, in the final analysis, were all related to Wanniang.
Logically speaking, she should hate her.
But as long as she thinks of the daughter she misses so much, but never asks her, she feels that Wanniang is hateful and pitiful after all.
In the last life, Jiang Xuening stole Jiang Xuehui's chance and her marriage, and fought to squeeze into the palace to accompany Shen Zhiyi to read; He rushed to her in front of her, and even the matter of entering the palace as a companion, fell on her head without her name being presented, and was completely pushed into the palace by someone behind her back.
Everything seems to be not much different from the previous life.
This made her couldn't help thinking: Can she really change anything after being reborn in this life? Or, just repeat the mistakes of the previous life.
Early in the morning of the next day, before dawn, Jiang Xuening got up being served by the maids. After washing and dressing up, she went to bid farewell to her parents, took a little luggage, and got into the carriage.
Ministers enter and leave the palace through the Meridian Gate;
The female relatives in the palace or those who accompanied them in the palace all entered through the Zhenshun Gate in the northeast corner of the palace.
Most of the selected accompanying readers are between seventeen and twenty, the best age for green girls.
When Jiang Xuening arrived, some people had already arrived.
She seldom showed up in the gatherings of the noble daughters of the family, and she was not familiar with them, but they were familiar with each other, and they were standing near the palace gate talking in a low voice.
But as soon as Jiang's carriage arrived, the discussion stopped.
Everyone turned to look at her.
There was more or less curiosity or apprehension in their eyes: the name Jiang Fu presented at the beginning was Jiang Xuehui, but then the one selected to be a companion to the palace suddenly became Jiang Xuening. This matter is not only known in Jiang's residence, it has also been spread outside. Girls from aristocratic families like them, who can not pay attention to these?
Others can't grab the head.
This Jiang Xuening was fine, sitting at home, she didn't have to do anything, and the stuffed pie fell from the sky and hit her on the head.
It's really hard to calm down.
Jiang Xuening just got off the carriage, and at a glance, she saw a few familiar faces: They were all the people who were with her in the previous life.
A You Yue from Qingyuan Bofu.
At the Double Ninth Banquet that day, Jiang Xuening didn't give her face, and she had formed a grudge.
At this moment, she was wearing a beautiful palace dress, with a dignified and virtuous look on her face, but there was undisguised hostility in the eyes looking towards her, and even a hint of cruelty.
Jiang Xuening thought in her heart that she must never come to seek death in front of her, otherwise her situation in the palace in this life will be much better than in the previous life, if a temper comes up and accidentally pinches her to death, it will not be good to hear it.
Next to You Yue is Fan Yilan, the lady of the Fan Shang calligrapher who was named the first in the poem at the last Double Ninth Banquet. She is the most plainly dressed among all the people. An indifferent and misty air.
The matter of entering the palace does not seem to be exciting for her.
Others looked at Jiang Xuening somewhat strangely, but Fan Yilan just looked over indifferently, neither curious nor jealous.
Jiang Xuening knew that this was the only one among the twelve people who entered the palace to study with him this time who had no yearning for prosperity and wealth, and he did not stay to study with him in the end.
Next is Zhou Baoying, the third daughter of Dingyuanhou's family, who is the youngest among them all, and also the favorite of Dingyuanhou. A small face with a bit of baby fat, round and toot, a pair of **** grape-like eyes, very bright.
People stood in front of the palace gate and looked around without any fear.
Holding a small oil paper bag in her white and tender hands, she kept taking out candied fruit from it to eat, her cheeks moved like a little hamster, she was blinking and staring at Jiang Xuening.
This is a girl who can be subdued by just giving any snack.
But there is also a bad thing-
That is, whoever gives her snacks can subdue her. Probably because people are still young, ignorant, and have no principles at all.
The rest are Yao Rongrong, Fang Miao, and three others.
Those three Jiang Xuening looked unfamiliar, but they had no memory of them.
Because they seemed to be poor in etiquette and academic aptitude, during the few days they entered the palace to learn the rules and familiarize themselves with the palace environment, they were sent back by the female officials in the palace.
I still remember the first two.
Yao Rongrong was the lowest born among the people who entered the palace this time, and she was the daughter of Yao Duping, the minister of the Imperial Academy. Xiaojia Biyu's appearance and dress were a bit shabby compared to the other girls from great families.
When looking at people, he is also low-browed and pleasing to the eye.
When she looked over, as soon as she met Jiang Xuening's gaze, she immediately withdrew her gaze, not daring to look at her again.
Jiang Xuening remembered Yao Rongrong because she was the stupidest and slowest learner among all the people in her previous life.
In the end it was Fang Miao.
A delicate face, clean; a pair of smart eyes, but a little too vivid. There is a small red mole on the tip of her eyebrow, which makes her look a little delicate. If you look carefully, you will find that she is wearing a water blue dress today. Because September belongs to gold among the five elements, the temperature of Shaoyin moistens the flow and grows with water.
That's right, Fang Miao is the only daughter of Qin Tianjian.
She has been obsessed with it since she was a child, and learned from her father to observe the sky and calculate the solar terms, while submerging in the study of the five elements and eight trigrams, and also read astrology and divination for others.
Whether it's accurate or not, Jiang Xuening doesn't know.
Anyway, in the previous life, Fang Miao was very popular with other people because of her hobby in this area, and she would get together at night to calculate some good and bad marriages, and she got along like a fish in water.
Jiang Xuening doesn't care how they look at her, because her plan in this life is very clear——
Learning etiquette?
One cannot wake up a person who pretends to be asleep, so no matter how good a female officer is, it is impossible to teach a person who wholeheartedly wants to stay away from the court.
She is too lazy to deal with these people.
So after getting off the car, I didn't talk to them, but just stopped at the gate of the palace not too far away.
The **** guarding the door glanced at her, pinched his fingers to calculate, and said: "There are nine people, and there are still three who have not arrived. Please wait a little bit, my family will take you into the palace later." .”
Yao Rongrong timidly asked: "Who hasn't come yet?"
Zhou Baoying lowered her head and pulled the candied fruit in her oil paper bag, pouted her mouth, and replied casually: "The one who came last must be the sister of the Xiao family, sister Chen and sister Yao are with her, and they will definitely come together. "
There was a slight strangeness on the faces of the others for a while.
Zhou Baoying is the concubine daughter of the Hou family, and she has always been close to Xiao Shu and others, and she has a pure heart, so she doesn't think there is anything wrong with saying such words. But other people's families are hard to compare with them.
Now most people are waiting here, but there are still people who haven't come.
After hearing this, who doesn't feel that those who haven't come here are too arrogant?
But just as they were talking, a rather extravagant carriage drove towards Zhenshun Gate and stopped in front of everyone.
The coachman took the footstool from the cart and put it down.
The **** who had talked with Jiang Xuening and the others before saw the carriage and hurried up to it, smiling all over his face, and bowed to the side of the carriage: "Missy is here."
Sure enough, it was Xiao Shu in the car.
She was wearing an apricot-yellow fairy dress with wide sleeves and jingling rings around her waist today. She got out of the car while holding the hand handed over by the eunuch, and said with a smile, "Eunuch Huang came out to pick up people today. Say tell me."
Huang Renli followed suit with a smile: "Your Highness is very happy to know that many playmates will be here this time. I sent my slaves here today. It's good to have a look. I'll talk to the princess when I go back."
Everyone could tell that this Huang Renli was the **** next to the eldest princess Leyang, presumably she was very trusted by the eldest princess.
But such a **** also stepped forward to help Xiao Shu get out of the car.
The prominence of the Xiao family and the good relationship between Xiao Shu and the eldest princess can be seen.
Xiao Shu was not the only one in that car.
After she got out of the car, two more people got out of the car.
Jiang Xuening raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw it.
Although Chen Shuyi, the daughter of Chen Yunjin's family, a cabinet scholar, rarely enters the palace and is not very familiar with Princess Leyang, she has a very good relationship with Xiao Shu.
It's just because the two have similar backgrounds in this capital.
Although her appearance is not as bright as Xiao Shu's, she is as her name suggests. She has an air of elegance, and there is always a faint smile on her lips, but she is quite thoughtful and calculating when she looks at her with her eyes. She has a restrained and cautious personality. people.
The remaining one is interesting.
On the other hand, he has almond eyes and willow eyebrows, with a single snail bun, a pair of crescent-shaped white jade earrings on his ears, and a delicate jade lock on his chest. Looking good-looking, even looking at the dress, I know that the background is not ordinary. It's just that when she got off the car, the official lady frowned, a little irritable, even a little gloomy, as if she had encountered something difficult and unpleasant.
Jiang Xuening was very impressed with her.
The daughter of Taifu Yao, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Yao Xi—
She almost married Zhang Zhe as his wife, but she regretted the marriage when the marriage proposal was halfway through. She also caused people to spread the rumor that Zhang Zhe "kept his wife" all over the capital, and told her father to be in the middle of the court. After a lot of suppression, Zhang Zhe's elderly mother, Feng Shi, became seriously ill.
In the end, after thousands of choices, she married Zhou Yinzhi.
From then on, he asked his mother's family to help Zhou Yinzhi, and he made his way up. Unexpectedly, after only three years, he died in Zhou Yinzhi's mansion where there were many wives and concubines because of "difficult childbirth".
At this time, Yao Xi should be discussing marriage with Zhang Zhe, and she is worried about this matter, right?
After all, Zhang Zhe had a fight with Jin Yiwei.
It doesn't look like it has a good future.
Jiang Xuening didn't know why, although she knew that her last life was not a good thing, but her methods were really inferior to this lowly one. She looked up and down, left and right, but she saw that Yao Xi was not very cheerful.
Abandoned Zhang Zhe and chose Zhou Yinzhi...
Really a little blind these beautiful eyes!
Her gaze was calm and full of meaning, she just stared at Yao Xi like this.
Yao Xicai got out of the car and was looking up at the others.
But accidentally bumping into Jiang Xuening's eyes, her eyes stopped, and she was startled for a moment.
However, Jiang Xuening pulled the corners of her lips, stood beside the crowd, and showed her a bright smile, hiding her sharpness and sarcasm just now, and seemed to have a good impression of her, very friendly, and nodded her head in greeting.
Yao Xi was at a loss.
But if a good-looking person like Jiang Xuening smiled at others, even a woman couldn't resist it. Although she didn't know why, she couldn't help but subconsciously smiled back.
Jiang Xuening was pure and kind on the surface, but deep in her heart she pondered leisurely: she didn't know Zhang Zhe at this time in her previous life, and she didn't pay attention to Yao Xi. But in this life, this girl must not be a monster under his nose. Otherwise, she may not be able to hold back some things and just stand by...
