Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 619

"Concubine Dongying admires me and wants me to enter the palace tomorrow?"

After Zuo Fu sent off the little eunuch who came to pass on the word of mouth, he was a little dazed.

She just came out from the family banquet in the palace, and she will be let into the palace tomorrow?And to visit the concubine from Dongying?
What do you mean?
"I heard that women from Japan are very favored..."

Chun Ya told Zuo Fu the gossip she had heard: "Although I haven't stayed in the Qianqing Palace, Your Majesty allowed them to enter the Qianqing Palace to serve tea and so on... For this reason, the empress has often troubled Dongying Zhaoyi. "

Zuo Fu frowned, and after thinking for a while, he couldn't help but sneered, "I'm the prince and grand master, and now I'm allowed to contact the two concubines of Dongying, it's really thoughtful enough."

Chun Ya and the others looked confused, not knowing what this meant.Zuo Fu didn't want to say more, Zhu Cihong's calculations all the time made her feel numb.

Even if a person in the court has experienced hardships, his childhood education has dehumanized him and turned him into a complete political creature. This is almost his instinct.

What is there to be angry about?Isn't it like this gradually?

Just go, as long as there are fewer troubles in this world and don't affect her change.

To be honest, although Zhaoyi's rank is not low, she is not qualified to summon her as the Duke.Even leaving aside her status as the Duke of the State, her rank as the lord of Jiangning county is also above them. In the Daming harem, if she is not promoted to the position of lord of the first palace, she is not qualified to summon her.

To put it bluntly, even if the lord of the first palace wants to summon her, she has to weigh it carefully, because strictly speaking, she is now a foreign minister, and the queen can only summon her as the lord of the county, otherwise she will be summoned by the emperor. When she was still alive, even the queen was not qualified to summon foreign ministers.

Now the Son of Heaven personally sent a eunuch to pass the oral instructions, and he only said that there were Dongying people around him, Zhaoyi met his compatriots, so he summoned himself to bring the Dongying people around him into the palace.

Naturally, it is impossible for him to bring Mu Er and others into the palace, and foreign officials are not allowed to enter the harem at will, let alone a foreign man.If Zuo Fu took it seriously, he would be really stupid.

Zhu Cihong just used this excuse to let her meet the concubine from Dongying.Therefore, as a courtier, she naturally had to understand the emperor's "hard work", and immediately bought a few sets of kimonos on Taobao, sent someone to Mu Er and the others' homes overnight, and asked their wives to dress up carefully tomorrow, and then entered the palace with her Meet with two Zhaoyi from Dongying.

Mu Er's wife, Ying Zi, was completely bewildered when she suddenly had to enter the palace to meet a big shot.But the woman soon realized that this was unusual.

The kimono sent is quite exquisite, and some headgear, clogs, socks, etc. are sent together with the kimono.

This kimono is not an Edo samurai style, but a furisode popular in Kyoto.Thinking about the hometowns of the two Zhaoyis, Yingzi felt that Zuofu's careful arrangements must be unusual.

She didn't dare to be careless, and immediately summoned the maidservant at home.These maidservants were recruited by Mu Er when he returned to his hometown after his life was better. They knew some skills of combing hair and sewing.

Since these people had no family members and his wife needed them again, Mu Er bought these people and brought them to Daming to help Yingzi with housework at home.

Today, I suddenly received a notice that the wife of the family will enter the palace tomorrow, so Yingzi called them over to discuss what hairstyle and makeup to wear.

The style of Edo is very different from that of Kyoto.Women in Kyoto are used to putting their hair down, while the Wu family members are used to combing their hair up.

Several people got together, looked at the kimono Zuo Fu sent, and decided to comb their hair according to the Wu family's habit.

After all, in order to show the affinity of the public family and the military family, the general, all the royal families are married to the public family.And now they are wearing furisode kimonos and combing the hairstyle of samurai women, which can be considered to reflect the general's intention to live in harmony with each other.

Moreover, they guessed that adults wanted them to do the same.After all, her elders often teach their husbands to get along with others just right, but not too flattering, nor too arrogant.

Dressing like this now, I think it should be in line with the wishes of adults.

After deciding how to dress up, Yingzi wanted to cook some Japanese delicacies, but Muer stopped her.

Dedicate something to the royal family, especially when eating.This point, the adults have taken care of it more than once, except for those vegetables and fruits, try not to offer other prepared food as a gift, so as not to be tampered with.

Yingzi didn't know that Shen Gong was responsible, and after hearing her husband's explanation, she couldn't help but be speechless.

This deep palace is actually such a dangerous place, no wonder the Patriarch is always so careful.

She thought for a while, then said: "Then don't prepare anything, and don't cause trouble to your lord."

Mu Er nodded, "Don't cause your lord any trouble, you'll just do what you see with his eyes tomorrow."

The Son of Heaven came down with a word of mouth, but Zuo Fu remained quite calm.But the family members of her personal guards were messed up.

Although their husbands or fathers are Zuo Fu's personal guards, they seem to be doing well, but in the end they are only Zuo Fu's retainers.Although he usually followed Zuo Fu and met some famous people, he had never entered Daming's palace.

Now that I suddenly have to enter the palace and have contact with the emperor's woman, it's impossible not to be nervous.

The obsessive-compulsive disorder of the Dongying people showed again, Zuo Fu looked at these people in front of him the next day, and was dumbfounded.

This dress is too...

Is it too grand?
On the kimono I sent, I even added something myself, making it look like a butterfly.That is to say, the kimonos I sent were all plain, otherwise they would add them in this way, and it would be impossible to read...

And how much powder did you put on this face?The lip gloss on the mouth is actually mirror-like, and with this ghostly white face, Zuo Fu only felt a chill.

Immediately took out the makeup remover and asked them to wipe their faces clean, and then asked their maidservants to go into battle and remake up.

"Madam Yamashita, the two Zhaoyis have already married into my Daming, and even they only wear kimonos occasionally, so you don't have to follow the Japanese tradition of makeup, just follow my Daming's."

"Hi!"

Yingzi immediately came to a taxi and got down, "I'm causing you trouble, I'm afraid."

"Get up, get up, get up."

Zuo Fu rubbed between his brows, "It's not a big deal, I'm skilled maidservants, and it doesn't take much effort to remake it. Okay, don't say too much, let's enter the palace."

Six well-dressed women in kimonos followed Zuo Fu into the palace, which naturally attracted a lot of attention.In fact, kimonos were born out of Hanfu, and Zuofu bought high-end kimonos, so it is quite in line with the aesthetics of Ming Dynasty people.

The way to get to the deep palace is to pass the central yamen in the palace. A group of officials who came to work saw this scene and stopped in their tracks to appreciate the exotic atmosphere.

Japanese women do not bind their feet, but they have a theory on how to walk.The kimono coat is covered with a sash, and the hem is held with both hands. When walking slowly, there is not only the feeling of supporting the wind and weak willows that the men of Ming Dynasty love, but also a sense of elegance.

A group of scholar-bureaucrats just watched and commented.

"Although this Japanese woman is short in stature, she is quite charming when she dresses up like this."

"The Dongying Kingdom also attaches great importance to etiquette. These women are not from noble birth, but this manner is not bad."

"The Dongying woman's clothes are also pretty good, a bit like the Tang and Song Dynasties."

"By the way, what did Zuo Fu bring these women into the palace?"

"Didn't you hear that? I heard that the two Zhaoyis in Dongying missed their hometown, so His Majesty passed an order to Zuo Fu yesterday, asking her to bring the Dongying family members in her personal guard to accompany her."

"Heh, our Little Zuo is really busy. Not only does he have to take care of the people's livelihood and the military, but now he has to help the two little Zhaoyis feel homesick. Your Majesty really relies on her."

These words were sour, both satirizing Zuo Fu and dissatisfied with Zhu Cihong.But don't stop anything else, although Jin Yiwei is everywhere, but in this palace, it is safe under their noses.

Besides, it's their job to criticize the king, so it's okay to say such standard words in front of the emperor, at most they will be reprimanded, what can they do?

Zuofu is so powerful, he can't do anything to them!

Although Yingzi and the others held their heads high and tried to maintain their demeanor, they still felt scrutiny from all directions, and even heard some discussions.

Although they couldn't hear them clearly due to the distance, they could feel that these Ming officials were watching and talking about them.

This makes them feel a little cramped, people are very sensitive to evil, so they are a little nervous, and at the same time, a little angry.

Because in Dongpu, it is very rude for a person of status to stare at others and talk face to face.Those who can work in this palace are all dignified people, why would they make such a disrespectful move?

As if he knew what they were thinking, Zuo Fu, who was walking in front, suddenly said: "Don't be nervous, the etiquette in this world is for the lower class to abide by, don't think too much about these nobles, it's the same in Dongpu."

Yingzi and the others couldn't believe it.But thinking about it, they have never met anyone with real status, and when they were in their hometown, some people with some money and power were indeed frivolous, so they were relieved after thinking about it.

The two Zhaoyi lived in the same palace. Since the Liutiao family was pushed into the river, the emperor ordered them to move to Zhongcui Palace.

There is no imperial concubine living in Zhongcui Palace, so the two sisters are oppressed by their immediate superiors, but they are somewhat at ease.

And in order to make them less homesick, Zhu Cihong even asked someone to rearrange it, and the interior furnishings are quite Japanese.

It is also because of these special treatment that the queen and others are very jealous.Among this group of people, Shan Zhixian was the most nervous.

The Forbidden City in Beijing was built according to the Forbidden City in Nanjing, and there is also Gong Zhongcui Palace in the Forbidden City in Beijing.At first, this courtyard was not called Zhongcui Palace, but Xianyang Palace. Later, it was renamed Zhongcui Palace during the Jiajing period.

Zhong Cui is the same as Zhong Cui, which means to gather the essence and essence.But just like this, it wouldn't make the queen nervous.

The reason why the queen was so nervous was that the Zhongcui Palace in Beijing was renamed later.The front hall of Zhongcui Palace is called Xinglong Hall, and the back hall is called Shengzhe Hall, which is the residence of the crown prince.

Although it didn't last long, the palace was changed back to Zhongcui Palace, but seeing that His Majesty dotes on the two Dongying women so much, and let them move here, do you have any other ideas?

The emperor ran to the Zhongcui Palace every three days, and the probability of pregnancy would increase. Once they were pregnant, if they gave birth to a boy, would their son's status be affected?
Although his son is already the crown prince, who can call himself the winner until the end?So Shan Zhixian was very jealous and terrified, and today she seemed particularly terrified.

Zuo Fu entered the palace today according to His Majesty's order, not to visit her as the empress but to accompany the two concubines of Dongying. The emperor's intention is already obvious.

Clearly he wanted to give the two sluts a chance to make friends with Zuo Fu.The two came from a foreign country and had no one to rely on in Daming, but if they made good friends with Zuo Fu, the troubles in the palace would immediately decrease, and they would find an external backer invisibly.

Shan Zhixian hated and feared that the Son of Heaven was so eccentric. She didn't know what the Son of Heaven was going to do...

He arranged for Zuo Fu to be his son's teacher, but now he wants Zuo Fu to befriend Dongying girls, what exactly is he going to do? !

Zuo Fu didn't know that Shan Zhixian was so thoughtful now, but if she could hear Shan Zhixian's inner voice, she would probably laugh out loud.

After staying by this man's side for so long, she still can't understand at all. This queen who is familiar with history books seems to have read all the books for nothing. She only read the surface and never thought about the things behind the words.

What else could Zhu Cihong have in mind?He just regarded himself as a balance to balance the power of the harem.

The women from Dongying had no one to rely on, even if they made good friends with him, but he was still in the name of the prince's teacher, so in the end, he couldn't help anyone, no matter who he helped, it would be unfair.

But in the eyes of outsiders, they would think that he is someone who can change the power of the harem, so if he enters the palace today, isn't it just to put on a show for the women and courtiers in the harem?
Zuo Fu has become numb to such calculations.

Which one of the superiors in this world is not like this?It's just that I come from a later life, and I don't feel honored by this kind of use like people in this era.

When they arrived at Zhongcui Palace, Zuo Fu entered the main hall under the guidance of the maidservants, and bowed in bows, "Minister Zuo Fu pays homage to the two empresses."

Zuo Fu didn't need to kneel down yet, because she was the head of Jiangning County, so it was a title reserved exclusively for the royal family, and her rank was higher than theirs, so there was no need to kneel down, a half-squatting salute was enough for a courtier etiquette.

Xinzi and Liutiao Youxiang are not fools either, Zuo Fuzhen knelt down and they dare not accept this gift, seeing Zuo Fu performed the half-squatting ceremony, he hurriedly got up to help them up, and said with a smile: "I have been listening to the palace people talking about your Things, when I saw her today, she was really elegant and admirable."

"Your Majesty's words are really frightening."

Unavoidable politeness, this Dongying person is not the devil who came later, he learned his ideas and etiquette from the rabbit, so politeness and other things are unavoidable.

After some business exchanging between you and me, the two parties sat down.

Mr. Liujo was younger and more lively. After the guests and guests were seated, he couldn't wait to say: "Lord Zuo, did you make these kimonos? They are so beautiful..."
