Emperor's Love

Chapter 30

I sat on the chair and ate the sweet red dates, and there was a hint of sweetness in my heart.Looking at the maid's practice, compared to the beginning, it is really much better now, and the dance steps are more consistent. In this way, there should be no problem with the performance on New Year's Eve.Now it’s mainly about the clothes. I have asked Mr. Gao to take the clothes I drew to the tailor. I don’t know if it’s finished yet. Thinking about it, I got up and I have to ask. The clothes must be in the rehearsal. Give it a try at some time, otherwise there is no guarantee that something will go wrong during the official performance.

Thinking that Cao Cao and Cao Cao would be here, as soon as I stood up, Eunuch Gao came over with a little eunuch carrying a bag. I reckoned that the clothes inside were the clothes needed for the performance.

"Gao Gonggong..." I slightly blessed my body.

"Girl, get up! Don't spoil the old slave. Girl, here is the dress you wanted. The tailor sent it to me yesterday. I just have something to do. No, I'll give it to you early this morning." It's here, you didn't miss anything, right?" Eunuch Gao said with a smile.

"Eunuch Gao is so polite, I'm not in a hurry here, it's just right for you to deliver it now." I also said with a smile.

"That's good! The girl is busy first, and the old slave will go back first."

"Eunuch Gao, go slowly."

After Eunuch Gao left, I asked the maids to try on their clothes. It happened that I thought it would take at least two days before the clothes came back. It seems that I underestimated the ability of the people in the Forbidden City.

Soon, the 24th of the twelfth lunar month will arrive.The masters and slaves of all the palaces are busy, and the palace is very lively. I heard that last year, just after Emperor Kangxi passed away, Yongzheng ordered all the families not to set off firecrackers during the New Year, and not to hang red and festive things. It was boring for a year, so , everyone is looking forward to this year's New Year's Eve banquet.

Artists outside the palace who need to perform have been brought into the palace by Eunuch Gao early in the morning. I only need to be in charge of my two shows here. I asked Qiuying and Dongxue to find a few court ladies who know how to write and write according to what Eunuch Gao determined. The list of participants will be written into the program list, and will be distributed to everyone when the program is about to start.

I haven't seen my fourth brother come here for a few days after that day, but every time I think of that day, the corners of my mouth always rise unconsciously. Qiu Ying said that I have been in a particularly good mood and complexion these days.I can see him at the New Year's Eve banquet tonight... I am nervous and looking forward to it.The New Year’s Eve banquet was held in Qianqing Palace, and I can imagine how lively it was. I remember reading Emperor Kangxi’s poem describing the banquet in this way: “Tonight’s red curtain banquet is a gathering of relatives. Passing oranges The season is suitable, the reeds are happy and the spring is fragrant. The fragrance is red and the snails are heavy, and the wax is new. There is no need to sing and dew, and the bright moon is enough to keep people.” Such a beautiful poem can be seen from the grandness and joy of the banquet that year.During the time I have been in the palace, I have not been anywhere except this "Jingyixuan". After finishing my own work conscientiously, I will retire.

And after tonight, I should go back to the Chahar Mansion... Thinking of this, for some reason, I feel a little bit reluctant, looking at the busy figures of Qiuying and Dongxue, I think, after I go back, I will I'm afraid we won't be able to see each other again, we've been together for more than a month, we've already become like sisters, I really don't want to part with it, I suck my nose, and hold back the tears soaking my eyes.
