The biography of Xuanhe's imperial concubine

Chapter 61

In the Yunxiang Pavilion, Nan Muxuan was sitting in front of the carved bronze mirror and let the maids dress her up. Behind her, Pei Er was combing Nan Muxuan's hair, and Luo Er was picking out jewelry for Nan Muxuan

Just as Yuxi came in from the outside, she came over to take the carved golden hairpin from Luo'er's hand and put it on Nan Muxuan's hair, while softly saying, "Master, yesterday's hairpin..."

When Nan Muxuan returned to Yunxiang Pavilion yesterday, the heavy rain outside did not seem to stop. As soon as she entered the inner room, she asked someone to remove her bun and change her clothes. Master prepares hot water.

Nan Muxuan changed her clothes, took a beautiful hot bath, and lay down under the quilt. Yuxi, who was tidying up her things, found that the magpie gold inlaid jade hairpin brought out by the master was missing, and asked people to search inside and out several times. I couldn't find it. At that time, Nan Muxuan was already sleeping soundly on the bed.

The magpie gold inlaid jade hairpin was an object given by the queen mother when the master greeted the empress dowager for the first time. Yuxi and Luo'er recalled it for a long time, but they could only confirm that the hairpin was still on the master's head when they came out of Zhaoming Palace However, he couldn't remember when the master's hairpin disappeared.

The heavy rain was still falling outside, but Yuxi still hurriedly ordered the palace people to search quietly near the Yanyu Building.The hairpins could only be missing when they ran to the Yanyu Tower in the heavy rain or when they came back. The rain was too heavy and they were all in a mess. For a while, they really didn't notice when the master dropped the hairpins.

Nan Muxuan was woken up by starvation, and when she woke up, she heard that the magpie gold inlaid pearl and jade hairpin bestowed by the Empress Dowager had disappeared, she couldn't help but secretly sighed that it was unlucky, it was the only thing in her palace that the Empress Dowager rewarded, but she kept it It's gone, it's really... You know that in the palace, this kind of imperial reward can be said even if it is broken, but she is good, so she just lost it.

Yuxi and Luo'er didn't know when the hairpin disappeared, and she couldn't recall anything. She knew that her bun must be loose and messy from the time she was drenched in the heavy rain and ran towards the Yanyu Building. , but at that time, how could she have thought that there would be such a thing.

The people Yuxi sent out to look for hairpins all found nothing, and there was also a frail little eunuch who was drenched in the rain and seemed to catch a cold. Nan Muxuan couldn't help touching her forehead and sighed softly. When the exquisite meal came, he was already eating with a smile on his face, the feeling of being woken up from hunger was really annoying, leaving Yuxi and Luoer staring at each other speechlessly.

Seeing that the master didn't mention the hairpin after dinner, Yuxi simply sent two young eunuchs to continue looking, but didn't mention it in front of Nan Muxuan.

The people who were originally sent out got nothing, and the two people behind naturally returned without success. This hairpin was lost, saying that it was not a big deal, but it was not a small thing. The master has been silent all the time. Can't help but ask tentatively.

Nan Muxuan has been looking at the carved bronze mirror. In the hazy bronze mirror, Pei'er's hands are dexterously moving through her hair, either splitting the strands and tying them with silk ropes, or bending them into knots, twisting them. Twirling and twisting, she made her flowing long hair into a beautiful bun. Seeing Yuxi inserting a golden hairpin for her, she just wanted to praise Pei'er's craftsmanship when she heard Yuxi's soft words.

Nan Muxuan still smiled and praised, "Pei'er's craftsmanship is getting better and better." Then she took the gold silk inlaid ruby ​​drop bead earrings from Luo'er, and put them on on her own. Bronze Mirror tilted his head to look at it, very satisfied.

"The magpie gold inlaid jade hairpin, when I go to the queen's palace, I will stay alone and talk to the queen." Nan Muxuan said at this moment
Yuxi was slightly taken aback, "Master, this..." Yuxi didn't know what to say anymore, if the master and the queen said this, it's possible that they still have to apologize

Nan Muxuan actually thought about it before going to bed yesterday, and she really didn't think it was a big deal. She mentioned it to the queen, but she just wanted to know, in case this hairpin appeared in someone's hands in the future , she can also have an excuse.

She didn't think that the empress would specially punish her because of this at this time, and besides, shouldn't the empress, the master of the first house, should help them solve their troubles?She didn't lose it on purpose, the queen either helped her find it, or helped her carry it around.

"Well, let's do it like this, it's not a big deal." Nan Muxuan really thought it was nothing.

Things are often as simple as you think, and easy to solve. After everyone left Zhaoming Palace, Nan Muxuan deliberately stayed, and pitifully told the Queen carefully about the heavy rain in the flower viewing yesterday. , including meeting the emperor by chance, and being sent back to Yunxiang Pavilion by the emperor.

And when she returned to the palace, she found that she had lost her beloved hairpin. Nan Muxuan seemed not to know that the hairpin was lost, and logically the queen should punish her, so she said helplessly to the queen: "Young lady, you What should the concubine do, if the empress dowager finds out, will she think that the concubine does not understand the rules and is disrespectful to her?"

Without waiting for the queen to reply, she said angrily again: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress Dowager will not punish me harshly."

The queen sat at the top and listened to her gently. After she stopped speaking, she comforted: "Don't worry, the queen mother doesn't care about these things, and you don't need to say anything about it. As for the hairpin, if you like it, I will There are many similar ones in Gongna, you can pick a few and take them back when you go back later."

"Your Majesty is so kind, my concubine will thank you for your reward first, will your empress dowager really not blame me?" Nan Muxuan thanked me cheerfully at first, then asked a little uncertainly
The queen took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, and said with a smile, "Don't worry."
