Pastoral Trifles: The Poor Girl Turns Over

Chapter 573 Entering Beijing 3
Cheng Huan looked through it, and the previous explanation turned out to be the history of the Sheng family from the beginning of the records. There are three hundred rules in the back are the family rules, and the last one hundred are the rules of the magician. Everything is complete from the basic necessities of life. .

When leaving Sheng's house, clothes, jewelry and money were all ready, Cheng Huan took the things and got in the carriage specially distributed to her and returned to her small home.

The next day, she entered the palace. After entering the palace, because she was a third-rank female official, she was allocated a small courtyard not far from the Queen Mother's bedroom. Although it was just an ordinary courtyard with only a few rooms, the sparrow was small. She has all internal organs, and even assigned her a maid to take care of daily life. There are also two eunuchs and two maids who clean up the yard. They are not much worse than the concubines in the harem.

After entering the palace, the days became busy. Aunt Xinzi invited the female officer from the Ministry of Rituals to come over and personally instruct her on the rules of the palace, and brought a bunch of palace rules to memorize for her. After learning the rules, all the evening time must be spent reciting those rules.

Every day was spent in loneliness and busyness, but Cheng Huan didn't care. There were so many people in the palace, but everyone behaved well, polite and distant. If she wasn't more busy, she might be suffocated to death.

Although the fifteenth day has passed, the first month has not yet come out, and it is also considered a festival. The family members of the ministers and ministers of the court often take advantage of this time to invite guests and hold banquets. Cheng Huan is now a celebrity in front of the queen mother and a noble magician in the eyes of outsiders. Naturally, every time there is a banquet, she must be the guest of honor, but because she was born in a poor peasant, but has practiced magic, everyone is even more curious about how a little girl can have such opportunities and abilities.

Cheng Huan knew that he couldn't hide from this. If he insisted on standing out from the crowd, it would only attract more curiosity and slander. It would be better to accept it calmly, and he would go to every banquet,

At the banquet, she talked less and laughed more, and answered all questions. Those who met her saw her polite and well-mannered, and she did not have the air of a small peasant who had never seen the world. After a few banquets, no one surrounded her to ask questions. Asking this and that, and because of her status, she still invited her over every time, and Cheng Huan didn't refuse, and she sat alone in a corner drinking and having fun when no one paid attention to her, and she was quiet.

After the first month came out, the rules in the palace were learned, and the weather became warmer day by day, the emperor called her over alone for the first time.

　 In the hall, besides her, there was another person standing tall. He was dressed in a black robe so that his figure could not be seen clearly. His dark hair was tied up casually behind with a black hairband. , The door opened in the hall, and the cold wind came in, blowing the man's loose robe, making his back look more solemn and terrifying.

Cheng Huan walked steadily into the hall with quiet steps, knelt down and saluted, and got up after receiving the emperor's order, and respectfully waited for the emperor's order.

From the corner of the eye, he glanced at the face of the person next to him, only to see that person's icy eyes just looking at the front without expression, but he was keenly aware of Cheng Huan's probing eyes. It shot at Cheng Huan.

Shocked by this look, Cheng Huan instinctively withdrew his eyes, and didn't dare to look at the man again, only feeling that the air was a few degrees colder standing beside the man.

The emperor said: "Now that you are familiar with the rules of the palace, it's time to practice magic well. This is Feng Ming, the deputy head of the magic hall in the palace.
