Chapter 85

Chapter 60 (3)
In mid-March, Shujia went to an unfamiliar environment alone.Her baggage was not blamed much during the inspection, and someone even carried it for her.

The show girls were separated into Qixiang and Changchun Second Palaces. Shujia lived in Qixiang Palace, and lived in a large courtyard with a dozen show girls.Qixiang Palace is no longer seen in later generations, and was rebuilt by Cixi, and a few pieces of the palace wall were taken away.

It's still the same now, with five front halls and five bedroom halls.

Before I finished looking around, the aunt who stayed behind in the palace came. As everyone said, there was a serious shortage of manpower.The leading aunt claimed to be Hu, and there were only four servants under her command.Aunt Hu introduced herself, and introduced the four maids of honor to everyone, and then she looked serious: "Everyone can come to this palace, I think it is not bad, but the palace is no different than other places, and the rules are the most important. Some things Son, I have to say a few more words."

The beautiful women all stood still and listened, Aunt Hu said: "There is no way in the palace to give and receive in private, even if you have relatives with the nobles in the palace, you have to be wronged at this moment. You can't go out of the palace without being summoned by the master. For things that are taboo, hand them in first, so as to save trouble later..."

Once the conversation is over, the residence will be assigned.

The beautiful women in the main hall of the palace are not eligible to live in, they can only live in the surrounding houses, there is a difference between good and bad.Generally speaking, it is better to live in the east and the sun-facing ones, but it is not good to live in the west with the sun.Shujia naturally allocated a nice room, looked at the bed, but it was neat and clean, there were not many furnishings in the room, there were tables, chairs, beds, and a wardrobe.Put away the things, go out and look, and the Dong E family is next door.

Regardless of whether it was raw or not before, it is now a little more cordial in this environment.She greeted her with a smile, and saw the round-faced girl again. The round-faced girl was very embarrassed, but now she knew what the 'legendary appointed princess' looked like.

Shujia smiled and invited them to sit in the room.Adjacent and opposite rooms are constantly being visited by people, some are greeting each other, some are gossiping with acquaintances, and some are flirting with each other.There were also whispers: "Which one is the girl from the Shi family?"

The round-faced girl was very embarrassed when she sat down, she twisted her clothes and refused to speak.Mrs. Dong E smiled and asked Shujia: "Are you used to living here?" Shujia said: "Let's live well, but the one opposite them is not very comfortable, the weather is getting hotter..."

The chatterbox opened up, and the round-faced girl relaxed, and she knew that she was not from a low family background, she was the daughter of the servant Sa Bihan.The three talked about needlework for a while, Shujia saw that Dong E's clothes were very unique in pattern: "Is this a new look? I haven't seen it before."

Dong E was a little proud: "I figured it out by myself when I was free." The round-faced girl was very envious: "Your craftsmanship is really good."

After a while, dinner was served.Some eat together in the hall, and some are brought to the room to eat slowly.

The three of Shujia decided to have a meal in the hall first. If the environment is good, they will eat there. If it is not good, they will all go back to the room for dinner.

The three of them were surrounded by crowds, and someone probably guessed who was who from the housing allocation, but it didn't matter to Shujia.We all know who she is, her family has been arranged, who is still looking for trouble to plot against her?It's such a waste of time and energy, I might as well think of other ideas instead.

Everyone was not familiar with the first meal. They just entered the palace, and their spirits were still quite tense.There are no such plots as stumbling each other, spilling tea and rice on others.After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest. In the afternoon, some people gradually made friends in twos and threes, talking together, or doing needlework together.

Dong Eshi brought a few books, and Shujia happened to communicate with her.

In the evening, the empress dowager asked people to have dinner again, and Shujia was on the list, as were Dong Eshi, Ning Hui and several other girls.When I arrived, I took a look, okay, several concubines are also there.

The meal was extremely awkward.

Not only do you have to eat, but you also need to have a bad image. Fortunately, you can't speak when you eat, otherwise it will be even worse.Even so, the empress dowager couldn't stop her from looking at her all the time. In the end, she broke the rules and openly chatted at the dinner table, her partner, Shujia. "Can't you get used to it?", "Tell me what's missing."

The concubines also joined in: "What month is your birthday?" "Which dish on this table suits your taste?"

In the end all the little girls were asked.Seeing that Shujia was questioned, they were also a little envious and jealous, but when they themselves were asked, they couldn't help but admire again. After all, she is the appointed princess, and she speaks so calmly.

That night, after returning, the little maid prepared the washing water.Shujia smiled and thanked, and the little palace lady said: "It's what the servants should do. I'll collect it when the girl runs out." Shujia took out a purse, which contained five taels of silver.The little maid waved her hands again and again.Shujia smiled and said: "I will rely on you more in the future. This is a meeting ceremony. It will not happen every day in the future. My aunt who teaches the rules is also from the palace. I know the hard work in the palace. You have the right to save money for your work." It is also good to rely on it, and it is my intention to keep it useful." The little maid then took it.

The little maid estimated that she would receive a lot of red envelopes like this tonight, and then, according to the introduction of her aunts, she would probably pay a lot of filial piety to the seniors and eunuchs when she went back.

At night when Shujia was about to go to bed, Aunt Hu brought someone to round the room again.The question is also standardized: "Is the girl still used to living? Is there anything I want to add? Is there anything inappropriate?" Shujia felt a little strange when she saw the handkerchief in her hand. Aunt Hu looked at her when she saw it. Shujia was a little embarrassed, she turned her gaze back to her own veil, and suddenly realized.That needle-picking technique is like Aunt Wu's unique skill.

Now when it comes to relationships, Aunt Hu was taught by Aunt Wu.Of course, Aunt Wu herself is not the most beautiful, and Aunt Hu was not in Qixiang Palace, but in a remote palace nearby, and now there is a big pick, and people are recruited to bring her here.Shujia said: "It turns out that there is such a relationship. Aunt Wu is the most cautious when she is outside, and she doesn't mention things in the palace. I didn't know."

The next thing will be easy to handle, and the red envelopes will be given out neatly.After Aunt Hu left, Shujia sweated. Fortunately, she was an acquaintance of Aunt Wu. If she were her enemy, it would be troublesome.

After the empress dowager's banquet, concubines often invite several people to drink tea and chat.Concubine Rong and Concubine De care about their candidates for their daughter-in-law. Shujia is often used as a cover by the two, while the other concubines are here to show their positions.

Go and go, with the current degree of attention of Xiunu, the concubines will not be stumbling.Even the elder brother's own mother was very calm when facing the prince's proposed daughter-in-law.When this girl is sleeping, someone probably lies under the window to listen to her snoring, and then report to the higher-ups to know, to trouble her?If you ask your superiors to find out, then you will be asking for trouble.

Dong E's family has received a little more attention, besides the concubine, there are also beautiful girls.When they got to their house, they aimed at young men of the right age.The crown princess was appointed by default, but Sanfujin was not. In addition, the position of Sifujin was also vacant.Previously, Kangxi secretly considered the daughters of many other families. Everyone knew in their hearts that it might be the prince Fujin. Later, it was rumored that the prince was in possession. Now it seems that it is basically a fait accompli.Most people regard Dong E's family as a competitor, and the round-faced girl Ning Hui is also listed as a competitor.

Only those who were not high enough in the middle class had a kind attitude towards these three people. They were aiming at the emperor's harem. Even if they didn't do it deliberately, they knew that the emperor began to like beautiful and charming young women.There is a shortage of imperial concubines, imperial concubines, and concubines, and there is no quota for nobles.The first two dare not dream, but the latter two are not allowed to dream?
After all the calculations, only Shujia is the most comfortable.It would be nice if everyone didn't talk to her from time to time.

I don't know how to be blessed when I am blessed, at least everyone is talking to her, not sarcasm.Dong E’s has been said to have a bit of “literary spirit~er~” when he dances with words. It is clearly ironic when this word comes out of his competitors.Dong E's face was faint: "Oh, the girl's family is not here to show her skills, but the needlework is done, and it's just to pass the time. What does it have to do with literary style? My ink is pure and clear. In that day, scholars should It's written all over his face." After speaking, he pursed his lips and smiled.

For a young girl at this age, it is impossible for a TV drama plot such as poisoning to exist. Before entering the palace, everything was inspected and all murder weapons were confiscated.You know, not only the beautiful girl lived in the palace, but also the emperor's family, so the risk factor was very low.As for things like you pushing me and me tripping you up, it's so coincidental that it never happened that people fell into disfigurement.

The legendary imperial garden was open once or twice, and there was a stream of water passing through the imperial garden. When Xiunu entered, there were also eunuchs watching.No danger of any kind occurred.As far as Shujia knows, the part of "walking in private and meeting the prince's elder brother who is favored or avenged" did not happen.

In fact, the most difficult thing in the palace is not getting along with the little girls. Even if you are bullied or excluded, just be magnanimous and let it go with a smile.Why don't you know whether these things will reach the ears of the superiors?Those who are a little bit smart, or those who have been told by their family, are just saying something innocuous when they talk, and they don't even know how to say sarcasm.

Anyway, Shujia didn't have a brain convulsion to stretch her legs and trip her.On the contrary, a girl who lived in a row of houses on the west side injured her foot, so she rested for two days, unfortunately she missed the emperor's personal reading.

The most difficult thing is to be inspected by the superiors. On this day, the empress dowager greeted her to eat and eat noodles!It was Shujia's birthday that day, and she couldn't help but eat.Fortunately, she has practiced, eating noodles without breathing, drinking noodle soup without making a sound.Afterwards, many meals came out, such as unpicked fish, chicken with bones, and shrimps without shells... Shujia saw the tricks and gradually got used to eating.

Other than that, everything was fine, and she wasn't too nervous until Kangxi read it in person.Kangxi had tested her once before, after all, she had experience as a foundation, and she felt that she hadn't panicked yet.Shujia could even calm down and look around the venue calmly.She was still standing in the front row, and all she could observe was the three-acre land in front of her.The empress dowager came, and so did the main concubines.These people didn't interrupt, they just watched how Kangxi operated.

First, the eunuch reported that a beautiful girl from Zhenglan Banner in Qixiang Palace was injured and could not participate, and two of Changchun Palace were infected with seasonal diseases and had been moved out of the palace.Kangxi frowned: "Let the Imperial Hospital send someone to look at it, so that no disability remains."

Despite such a hiccup, most of it went smoothly.I couldn't look directly at Tianyan, so I lowered my head slightly this time, answering each sentence.The few people in the front row performed well, but the more nervous people went to the back, of course there were also those who were not so nervous, which made them stand out a little.

The questions Kangxi asked were not difficult. Those in the first two rows would ask what books they read, but Shujia was asked in more detail: "Are you still studying history? Where did you read "Zizhi Tongjian?" Shujia replied: "I have finished reading "Tong Jian", and I am reading "Sui Shu." Kangxi asked a few more allusions, involving several dynasties.

Dong Eshi was asked about "Pen Zhentu".A question and an answer said a lot about calligraphy.

As soon as the conversation was over, everyone knew that these two had been tested for a long time and had a certain future.The latter asked general questions, some stuttered, and some couldn't answer.Kangxi didn't care too much, there are always a few of them every time, which is quite normal.His old man was on a tour south and east, and the man who was called to the imperial court to answer the question was still nervous.

Shujia heard an unfamiliar voice, and the end of every word trembled when she spoke.It is estimated that it is a beautiful girl who lives in the Changchun Palace.And only when they were summoned, those who lived in Qixiang Palace could see those who lived in Changchun Palace.

After the emperor read it, he basically came to a conclusion. Whether it was successful or not, there were very few repetitions.Everyone returned to the residence, ready to pack and wait for the news.A group of little girls are like prisoners in the wind. The road is okay, but after entering the Qixiang Gate, they can't hold it anymore.

This one said: "Oh, my heart was going to jump out just now." The other said: "You're okay, I don't think I said everything." Twitter.

Shujia walked in the middle, with Dong E's family on the left and Ning Hui on the right. The other little girls were talking around the side, and a little girl in green next to her said: "You two are so good, what are you talking about? I don’t even understand.” They looked at each other and smiled, and before they could speak, they heard a door to a room on the west side creak open and then close again.

The crowd fell silent.

In Qianqing Palace, Kangxi was listening to Yinreng's report: "This year, Pingyang, Shanxi has a bumper harvest. My son thought that officials can be sent to buy it in case of famine." Kangxi raised his eyes: "How do you say?" Yinreng said: "In recent years, there have been frequent droughts in Gyeonggi, Khan Ama was also worried about this matter, and had personally prayed for rain in previous years. My ministers believed that droughts and floods are inherently impermanent, and ordinary people have no power to change them, but they can be prevented from becoming disasters. Today there are places where harvests are abundant, and surpluses are accumulated, and there are years of bad harvests You can open a position and sell..."

Kangxi took a sip of tea, nodded approvingly, and pushed a plate of fresh fruit on the table: "Come and taste this." He weighed one himself.After eating, wipe your hands.He seemed to be indecisive and said: "How do I remember that the prefect of Pingyang, Shanxi is now Shi Wensheng?"

Yinreng said: "It's him, but he has some skills." Kangxi said "Oh" and said, "Is he Shi Wenbing's brother?" Yinreng coughed twice: "It sounds like the name."

Kangxi couldn't help laughing: "I think it is!"

Kangxi was surprised to find that his son actually had a shy expression, and his movements were a little awkward.Kangxi laughed loudly: "The daughters of the show girls are about to leave the palace. Your grandmother is afraid that she will not let go of the girl of the Shi family, so she will ask her to talk. Wei Zhu, go to Ningshou Palace and say something."

Shujia was inexplicably called by the Empress Dowager to talk again, completely unaware that the Crown Prince was watching for a quarter of an hour.

Shujia's nerves were tense, and when she announced in the palace that the stay was over and everyone could go home and wait for the announcement, she felt a little silly.It wasn't until she got home that she completely relaxed, and if she was asked to eat those "two and a half" things in front of her face, she would definitely vomit blood!

The next thing is to wait for the notification.

I don't know how many people have been waiting for the result in fear.Especially in Shifu.As Sirut said, there were rumors before that if Shujia lost the election, it would be very difficult to marry well.

Finally, the news of the marriage was long overdue. The first time it was for the Shi family, it was indeed "Fuzhou general and Bo Shi Wenbing's daughter Guerjia is the crown princess".

The Shi family finally breathed a sigh of relief, Fu Dali gave a red envelope to the eunuch who delivered the decree, and Qingde sent him out of the house.

When the two brothers came back, Sirut called Fu Dali: "Write a letter to you, Ama, to announce the good news!" Fu Dali agreed repeatedly: "My son will go right away." Qingde happily said: "The others dare not Said, Ama will know about this in two days. Our family’s messenger is still on the way, and it will be in the court’s mansion newspaper or folder.” Fu Dali glanced at him: “Then we must also announce the good news. Xiner."

Great, I finally don't have to worry about my sister not getting married.

Hua Shan laughed three times in the room, it was done, he was worthy of his ancestors.Although our family belongs to the Guerjia family who came back later, we are worthy of being the largest family in Manchuria.

Shujia: Gone are the days of peace of mind.
