C119 (1/2)
For the Empress Dowager's birthday party, Shen Jingli only wanted to fight soy sauce. He did not want to be in the limelight, nor did he want to be hated. If it was not for him as a prefecture king and Mu Chen was an official in the court, he would not even want to step further.
There are many rules. If you don't say it, the people inside are still careful. If you do something, you have to think about you. They are not tired. He doesn't want to be tired of himself.
However, some people didn't want to let him go. The Empress Dowager summoned him to the palace to meet him about ten days before the birthday banquet.
hearing this news, Shen Jingli only felt headache, not that the Empress Dowager worshipped Buddha all the year round. Except for the grand banquet, he did not summon anyone else.
Moreover, in order not to disturb the Empress Dowager's quietness, the emperor even avoided the daily morning and dusk meditation. Except for the queen and several gentle princesses, no one was allowed to go to see the Empress Dowager without being summoned.
Under the service of love, Shen Jingli changed her clothes and was ready to go out. However, she was stopped by the mother from the palace.
”Lord, you can't just go out like this.” Mother Wang stood in front of Shen Jingli, looked at his makeup with disgust on her face, turned and cursed at her age, ”how do you become a servant? How could you afford to pay for such a shabby make-up for the princess and the loss of people in the palace?
Love was scolded inexplicably, the master did not like those enchanting makeup, he was not allowed to put on so thick makeup, and even did not allow the people in the house to wear big red makeup. He said that looking at the infiltration, he also had no way?
However, in the face of mammy from the palace and the people around the queen, he did not dare to talk back at will. Otherwise, he would have offended mammy Wang, and even the master would not be able to protect him.
Years of respectfully bent over, a word dare not say.
”Why can't you go out?” Shen Jingli looked at the clothes on his body. It was the official uniform that the prince should wear. There was nothing wrong with it?
When she saw Shen Jingli, she didn't know anything about it. She was really a bumpkin from the countryside. She didn't know anything about etiquette.
During this period, after she came to the prefectures' mansion, Shen Jingli ordered people to treat her well and eat good food and drink. However, she was not allowed to see him well, let alone teach him etiquette. During this period, Wang and mammy had accumulated a lot of resentment.
What do you look like now? How nice of you to go out and meet people? ”Mother Wang took him to the bronze mirror, pointed to it and swore at him.
Shen Jingli looks at himself in the mirror. His clothes are neat and his appearance is beautiful. He knows that he is a good young man who is rooted in Miao Hong. Where can he not see people?
Is it because he didn't draw a red monkey ass? Did not paint, cover oneself not to see the original appearance?
What kind of aesthetics are people of this era? I think I look good?
”You, you You, you don't change after repeated education... ” Mother Wang was so angry that she pointed to Shen Jingli and kept shaking.
”Well, if something goes wrong, I'll take care of it myself. You don't have to worry about it.” If he was really painted like a monkey's buttocks, he would not dare to go out to meet people. That would throw his face into the 21st century.
Mother Wang covered her forehead, her eyes closed slightly, and she almost fainted. A second-class servant girl quickly caught her and eagerly reached out to pinch her.
Shen Jingli was too lazy to pay attention to mother Wang. After greeting her, she got on the carriage and left.
After pressing the person, Mammy Wang awoke leisurely, pointed to the door and scolded: ”the wild boy from the countryside is not polite. As a twin, she is so angry that she turns her eyes and faints.
Shen Jingli entered the palace and was led by a father-in-law to go directly to the Empress Dowager's Ci Ning palace.
On the way, he met again the lawless imperial concubine Zheng. With her was the pregnant beauty Zheng. He respectfully retreated to one side. She gave a high spirited hum, but did not embarrass him. She led people past him like a proud peacock.
Tut Tut, Princess Zheng, is this a sudden brain growth?
In fact, it's not that imperial concubine Zheng doesn't want to trouble him, but that he is summoned by the Empress Dowager. If he is in trouble at this time, if she annoys the empress dowager, the Empress Dowager will not want to see her.
However, Shen Jingli also has no tendency of self abuse. It is the best for imperial concubine Zheng not to trouble him. After Zheng Guifei left, Shen Jingli came to the Empress Dowager's palace safely.
The Empress Dowager is 65 years old. She looks good. She is wearing a dark golden phoenix robe. She sits on the throne with a light smile on her face.
Ignoring the momentum she exudes, she looks like a kind-hearted grandmother. She is indeed the queen mother of a country. Shen Jingli salutes her and does not dare to take it lightly.
”Flat.” The Empress Dowager raised her hand and said, ”come on, give me a seat to the county Lord.
Soon, two small eunuchs brought a chair over. Shen Jingli thanked him and sat down generously.
The Empress Dowager looked at him with a smile, ”listen to the queen, the princess is an interesting person, today I see, it is true. When Shen Jingli saw that the Empress Dowager was happy, he also laughed. In ancient times, the Empress Dowager was in charge of the power of life and death of others. If one accidentally offended her, he had to move his head.
