Chapter 285 Entering the Palace (2)
Shen Ji thinks that Wei Ying likes to recite the "Pure Heart Mantra" silently when she is not at peace. She used to let him teach her to recite it for fun, and she also took it out to recite silently at this time.After reading it once and a half, I started to get confused and gradually fell asleep, until I was called up the next day to dress up, still wearing heavy makeup, and then drank ginseng soup and sat on the sedan chair.

Dozed off a bit, Shen Ji stretched out his hand and twisted herself hard, otherwise, if she really dozed off and fell out of the sedan chair again, she would become a real celebrity.No amount of good manners today can make up for it.It's too far away, and it takes more than half an hour to walk. When Wei Ying is transferred back to Beijing, he must buy a house near the imperial city.

After a while, the sedan chair stopped, and Mama Gu opened the curtain of the sedan chair, "Grandma, we're here."

Shen Ji took a look, the sky outside just had a gleam of light, and the wives were waiting outside the Sishan Gate, and it was more than half of the time.The time for the Empress Dowager to be summoned by the throne had not yet come, so they gathered in twos and threes to talk.

Mother Gu smiled and said, "The fourth grandma of the Yuan family is here."

The fourth grandma of the Yuan family is Xu Wu, and it was she who led Shen Ji to participate in social activities for the first time, and this time Mrs. Lin instructed her again.Xu Wu's husband is Enyin's fourth-rank idler, she came over with a smile and took Shen Ji's hand, the dress on her body was slightly different from Shen Ji's in design.

"It's far enough from you, you should get closer and buy a house later."

"Brother Wei is still working as a foreign official, let's talk about it later."

The bunch that Xu Wula Shen sent over were all young wives, most of whom were in the third and fourth ranks. Shen sent it to see that most of them were met on He Fu's birthday, and later came to add makeup to her.Four years have passed, and sure enough, they became relatives and got together here again.

She didn't know if these people had played a role in it when the rumors were raging before, but now it's better not to think about it, so she smiled and greeted everyone with blessings.Although her official dress is the lowest in here, others dare not underestimate her at this time.Then someone asked her about saving King Lan, which had been spread for a long time, but no one from King Lan dared to ask about it, and Shen Ji stayed behind closed doors to learn the rules, and the time has not yet come , Waiting for boredom and playing it.

There must be a lot of people who want to inquire, Shen Ji thought it would be better to say it in front of everyone, so he didn't refuse, and said with a smile, "I was greedy that day, so I ordered someone to inquire about delicious places, and I happened to meet The injured King Lan was carried to the hospital by someone."

"That's it?" Others were not satisfied with her speaking so simply.Even Xu Wu looked at her with unbelieving eyes.

Shen Ji nodded sincerely, "That's it." I don't believe you can go to King Lan for verification.If it is said that he used his shoulders to support King Lan to go out, and then used his sword to force the farmer to push the cart, then I don't know what it will be like.Gossip kills, isn't she almost going to be dealt with by the family law for trumped-up charges?Think about how poor my mother-in-law was back then.

"But, it's not about female guards..."

Shen Ji was sweating a little on her forehead. She was a bit too fierce at the time, and she didn't know what it would be like to be embellished. "Do you think I look like I can judge people with a sword? It's just a rumor. Before everyone I didn’t know it was me, so I believed it three-pointed.”

Everyone looked at the quiet and beautiful Shen Ji, who stood like a bamboo, and shook their heads in their hearts. In this way, she was lucky enough to bump into her, and then asked someone to give King Lan a ride in a car.What a blessing, it was Lan Wang who was saved.In this way, he was awarded and rewarded by the empress dowager and the noble concubine.Even people like Jiang Shizi were forced to apologize to her.

Then she talked about Shen Ji learning etiquette. Her words and deeds at this time are much better than those of four years ago, and she seems to have been brought up by a boudoir like them.But those who knew the inside story were all laughing in their hearts, they were really getting better at pretending, and they looked like real girls.

When the time came, everyone stood up according to their ranks, and Shen Ji retreated to the last position of the team he was supposed to stand on.There are so many officials of the fifth rank or above in the capital, civilian and military, full-time and idle, so this imperial wife is also a bunch of gangsters.Fortunately, Baoshan Gate is spacious, so it is not crowded.

It's just that this time is the time for a married woman, but there is no news of her being promoted to the throne, so everyone can only wait respectfully, and at this time, they can't even gossip.Shen Ji remembered that in the past, he said with a smile that entering the palace to kowtow was hard work, and it really was.Isn't it similar to standing in a military posture now?

After waiting for half an hour, a eunuch finally came out and said, "The Empress Dowager has been promoted to the throne. Ladies and gentlemen, come in..." By now, it was dawn.

A group of people went to the palace where the Empress Dowager lived in an orderly manner. Shen Ji was unable to enter the gate of the main hall where the Empress Dowager lived, and knelt in the courtyard.The next thing was to kneel down and kowtow to the sound of the salute and the chimes, and then stand up. After a full quarter of an hour, the whole set of etiquette was completed before I heard the praiser's voice: "Licheng..." Thanks to this I have been intensively training for half a month, and I finished it with ease.

Then, the Empress Dowager left some people to chat with her, all of whom were of the first rank and second rank.The rest of the people dispersed separately and went back to the house to preside over the mid-feeding of the Dragon Boat Festival at home.Shen Ji estimated the time, it was almost two hours since she woke up, besides traveling and waiting, she only did kowtowing for a quarter of an hour.A court lady stepped forward to ask her identity and led her to sit and wait in a small room next to her, with countless eyes looking at her with envy behind her.

Shen Ji was very fortunate to have summoned her at this time, if she had been allowed to enter the palace after the decree had been announced, her half-hearted etiquette would have made people laugh.

"Madam Wei, sit here and wait, the sun is rising outside." The maid smiled.

Shen Ji handed over Bao Yuezhai's fashionable bead string, "It's not worth anything, my sister wears it for fun."

The palace lady saw that the jade on the bead string was carved into the appearance of flowers, birds, insects and fish, which was quite unique, so she took it away with a smile, "Madam Wei, you are welcome. There are tea and snacks on the table. If you need convenience, there is a clean room next to it. The Queen Mother sees everyone Old Gaoming, we usually have to talk for more than half an hour."

"Thank you." If there is no benefit to send, I am afraid that I will be left here.Although the superior had ordered her to bring her here, it was over when she was brought.Without her reminder, I could only sit upright, and didn't dare to move the snacks and tea next to me, let alone go to the toilet.These additional reminders are directed at this precious bead string.Not to mention telling me that it will take about half an hour to wait, so my heart is much more at ease.These court ladies are used to seeing good things, their eyes are very poisonous, they don't accept the bad things they give them, and they have to laugh at themselves as bumpkins when they go back.The King of Hades is fond of little ghosts, so he is talking about these people.

Shen Ji got up early and only drank ginseng soup. Seeing the delicate and lovely dim sum, he ate two and drank some tea.Then the little maid next to her led her to the toilet.She saw that the little maid was wearing a green shirt, which was one level lower than the yellow dress of the previous lady, so she also gave a suitable gift.
