84, Jinjiang Literature City debut(1/2)
Two days later, Princess Jingyang's ceremonial guard entered Chang'an City.
Tao Ti was pulled out of the quilt by Linglong early in the morning and pressed her to the dressing mirror for a while.
To show her respect, she changed into a whole set of dresses made by the Crown Princess today. Although the materials are all silk, the inside and outside are three layers, plus the complex and gorgeous embroidery, and she is wrapped like a white and sweet rice dumpling.
In addition, Linglong also combed her a complicated bun. Her hair was thick and dense, so in order to support this bun, she had to add an extra fake bun.
I finally combed my hair bun, wore a hair crown, gold, silver and pearl hairpins, and even my neck, ears, and wrists...
From the gray sky to the bright sky, I sighed with relief and sighed, "Crown Princess, I've dressed up, are you satisfied?"
Taoti raised her hand and held her heavy head, stared at the mirror for a while, and felt like a shining money tree, and gold would fall off with a crackling sound.
When it was early in the Si period, Tao Ti was supported by Linglong and sat on the sedan chair heading to Ganlu Palace.
She looked up at the clear blue sky, and sighed softly. It was a life-threatening thing to dress like this in midsummer of July.
The concubines with the fifth rank or above in the harem, the wife of the fourth rank or above in the previous dynasty, and the female relatives of the princes and the relatives were already waiting outside the Ganlu Palace, and several princesses arrived one after another.
Tao Ti's sedan chair stopped steadily, and when everyone saw her, they greeted her.
This was the first time Tao Ti had seen so many noble women. She felt tight, but she was calm on her face. She smiled politely and showed off her head to show them one by one.
Whether you know or not, just smile.
After walking around the crowd of women, Tao Ti saw that they were all dressed so grandly and complicatedly, and the resentment of being wrapped in rice dumplings early in the morning was much more balanced.
Everyone is just as miserable. The sun comes out later and I will have to be sunbathed together.
Thinking of this, Tao Ti's eyes couldn't help but fall on Pei Lingbi's face, thinking a little badly that this guy had such thick makeup on his face, and he would have a makeup on his hair later. How terrible it would be.
Pei Lingbi noticed her gaze and swept over.
When she saw that Tao Ti was looking at her, she rolled her eyes and turned her face to the side.
Tao Ti pursed her lips, not caring.
Soon, Queen Zhou, dressed up in a dress, came out with the help of the palace servants. She was wearing a stone green robe embroidered with five phoenixes up to the sun, and a phoenix crown with exquisite and gorgeous workmanship. The pearl inlaid in the center of the phoenix crown was as big as a dove egg. Under the bright sunshine, it shone with a bright and bright luster, which was very eye-catching.
Everyone saluted Queen Zhou.
Empress Zhou smiled dignifiedly and signaled everyone to get up.
After saying some polite words, a little eunuch came to report that Princess Jingyang's ceremonial guard had arrived at Zhuque Gate, and Emperor Zhaokang and others had already gone from the Golden Dragon Palace to Tai Chi Palace.
Queen Zhou responded, looked around, and chuckled, "Then you guys go to Tai Chi Palace with me."
As she said that, she waved to Taoti again, with a kind smile, "Crown Princess, come to my side."
Tao Ti, who was silently reciting the mantra of "Silent Heart, Naturally, Cold", was suddenly named, and was still a little confused. After reacting, he still walked forward.
Queen Zhou held Tao Ti's hand, "We are two women and I can still talk on the road."
Tao Ti, “…”
Who is your mother and son?
Pei Lingbi also stared at him, and his unbelievable eyes made Tao Ti feel inexplicably happy and agreed crisply.
From Ganlu Palace to Taiji Palace, Taoti and Empress Zhou sat in a spacious sedan chair with sheds covering it, and the sedan chair was filled with ice, so it didn't feel hot.
Empress Zhou was caring for the prince's body all the way. Tao Ti answered according to the situation and said more if she could say, and she would not mention anything she could not say.
After chatting like this, I survived the whole way.
When they arrived at Tai Chi Palace, Emperor Zhao Kang sat majestic in the upper seat. Pei Yan was on his right hand. The two of them stood the princes, princes, nobles, and civil and military officials of the fourth rank or above.
In front of the huge Tai Chi Palace Square, men gathered together, and women stood together, and dragon-patterned flags roared in the wind.
When a team of ceremonial guards slowly entered through Chengtian Gate, magnificent rituals and music sounded from the square.
Even though Tao Ti was so hot that she was a little dazed, she suddenly woke up when she heard the rituals and music. She opened her eyes and looked down at the audience-
Wow, this is such a big show!
Three gorgeous carriages stopped under the steps, and the graceful lady who took the lead was Princess Jingyang. The next two were Xie Yunshi, the youngest prince of the Duke of Jin's Mansion and the Lord of Qinghe County.
As soon as he saw Princess Jingyang, Emperor Zhaokang's serious face became much more kind. After three years, the brothers and sisters met again, and their eyes were red.
Princess Jingyang is nearly forty years old and well maintained. She looks like she is in her early thirties and is a mature and charming beauty.
After she greeted Emperor Zhaokang in a warm manner, she asked Empress Zhou again, and her eyes fell on Pei Yan, looked up and down, and nodded constantly, "Yan'er looked much taller than three years ago, and her face was much better."
The young master behind him and the lord Qinghe County were just politely celebrating the emperor and the queen, and he heard his mother ask, "Yan'er, where is your newly married princess?"
Taoti was shocked.
When Princess Jingyang and his family looked at her with Pei Yan's eyes, her waist unconsciously stood up, and hurriedly stepped forward and greeted each other with neither humility nor arrogantness. "Niece-in-law Tao greeted Princess, and her highness Jin An would be blessed."
Princess Jingyang narrowed her phoenix eyes and looked at it, then said slowly, "Well, you are a polite person, get up."
While Tao Ti stood up, the young master and the county lord Qinghe also saluted her.
Tao Ti replied with the courtesy and looked at it calmly. He saw that the young master of Jin was handsome and clear, with extraordinary temperament, and exuded the elegant demeanor of a scholar.
The Qinghe County Lord beside him has a thin shoulders and a petite figure. He has a classical beauty's oval face, a new cheek and a greasy nose. It is beautiful, but it looks like a deficient orchid, like an orchid that is unbearable.
After meeting each other, the crowd returned to the hall to take a seat, and the palace people poured tea.
The main thing is that Emperor Zhaokang talks with Princess Jingyang, Empress Zhou occasionally adds two or three sentences, while the rest of the people just sit and listen in peace.
After the happy brief dialogue, Emperor Zhaokang asked Princess Jingyang and his family to return to the palace to rest and wait for the evening palace banquet before having a good chat.
Everyone dispersed in an orderly manner.
Tao Ti thought Pei Yan was still busy and planned to go back first, but she didn't expect that before she could get to the sedan chair, she heard Pei Yan call her name.
She slowly turned her head with her heavy bun in her arms, and saw him walking towards her, with her black eyes wide open, "Your Highness, are you no longer busy?"
Pei Yan stood in front of her and said lightly, "Well, I will accompany you back to the palace first."
As he said that, he helped Tao Ti get on the sedan chair first, and then sat on it.
After sitting down, Pei Yan took out a veil from her sleeve and wiped her sweat naturally, "Are you tired?"
Taoti enjoyed his considerate and tenderness, bent her eyes and smiled at him, "If your Highness wipes my sweat, you won't be tired."
Pei Yan lowered his eyebrows and smiled slightly.
As soon as he returned to Yaoguang Hall, Tao Ti let herself go, taking off her while walking, and shouting, "I'm so hot, I'm so hot..."
Linglong followed behind and picked up all the way. He wanted to remind the Crown Princess to pay attention to her image many times, but when he saw that the Crown Princess did not feel unhappy, he gently walked to the dressing mirror to remove the hair bun for the Crown Princess. Linglong silently chose to shut up, picked up the clothes and retreated.
Pei Yan took off the bead hairpin for Tao Ti without hesitation. When the last long hairpin was pulled out, the black hair hanging down like ink, and a faint fragrance lingered in the tip of his nose.
Taoti raised her hand and rubbed her neck, muttering softly, "The neck is about to break."
Before he could finish his words, a pair of slender and cold hands stroked her shoulders and neck.
Tao Ti was stunned.
Pei Yan had already started massage for her, and his gentle voice sounded, "Will this force be heavy?"
Tao Ti blinked, raised her hand, held his hand, raised her fair little face, and said softly, "Your Highness, you don't have to pinch it for me, you've been tired all morning..."
Pei Yan looked at her quietly with a smile on his face, "Press her, you won't be tired."
His words instantly brought Taoti back to his days in Taoyuan Village. Those plain and stable days were really... missed by people.
Pei Yan pinched Tao Ti's shoulders and neck. Tao Ti felt relieved and went to massage his back.
It was hot, and the two of them ate a meal of locust leaves and then got up to sleep.
But Tao Ti woke up and Pei Yan disappeared. When she asked Linglong, she realized that not long after she was asleep, Pei Yan quietly left and went back to Zixiao Palace to handle official business.
Hearing this, Tao Ti felt warm and couldn't help but worry about Pei Yan's body.
He has so much official duties every day, can he bear it? So is the emperor, and he doesn't know how to give less work to the prince!
………
The sky was a little dark, and the lights were just on, and the palace people were busy with various pastries and wine.
At the palace banquet, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras was singing and dancing, and the atmosphere was peaceful and peaceful.
Emperor Zhaokang resides in the upper seat, Empress Zhou is on the left, and Princess Jingyang is on the right.
Perhaps to promote feelings, Emperor Zhaokang asked Pei Yan and Mr. Xie to sit together, and Tao Ti and the Lord Qinghe County Lord.
At this time, Tao Ti had already changed into another dress, wearing a tunicated Ai-green palace skirt, and her hair bun was combed back into a dignified and elegant concentric bun. With a set of pearl jewelry, she looked refreshing and gentle.
The county lord Qinghe also changed his outfit, wearing a simple blue long dress and a bun of an unmarried girl. He should have had some rest in the afternoon, and now her complexion is better than in the morning.
Although the county lord Qinghe had already reached the head of the palace, his face looked very small. She didn't talk much. After calling Tao Ti softly, she sat quietly.
Seeing her timid and polite appearance, Tao Ti felt a little fond of her and took the initiative to find a topic to talk to her, "Minister, do you want to try these three fresh bamboo shoots and stir-fried quails? The taste is pretty good."
Qinghe was a little surprised, and looked at Tao Ti with black eyes, obviously not expecting that she would talk to her—
On the way, the mother repeatedly reminded her that the Crown Princess's mother was domineering and arrogant, and the daughter she gave birth to must not be easy to get along with.
But now it seems that it is not what my mother said.
Qinghe blinked his watery eyes and said softly, "Then I'll try it."
