Chapter 99, Tianer is a Slacker (1/4)
Yao Jiaxin lived a leisurely life like a rice insect in Yongshou Palace. Even if she recovered from the illness, she continued to pretend to be sick and avoid being lazy.
Until this day, a eunuch in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent the imperial court robes. "The auspicious day of the enthronement of the Empress is chosen on the zodiac auspicious day on the fifth day of the eighth month. Please try this court robes on. If something is not suitable, the servant will ask the acupuncture station to be modified as soon as possible."
Court robes are the highest-standard dresses, which are only worn during major seasons such as the title ceremony and the New Year Festival, so they are also the most luxurious. Even if they are just the lowest concubines, they are still shining with golden radiance and bustling - a golden zoo crown full of pearls and jade stones, a golden robe with golden lace, a golden edge gauntlet, a stone blue dragon pattern eight-treasure flat water court robes, and various matching decorations, all of which are exquisite and luxurious.
Yao Jiaxin raised the golden crown with both hands and couldn't help but say, "It's so heavy!" - I don't know how much gold, pearls, and gems this hat used!
Su Yu smiled and said, "The imperial concubine's crown is the lightest, and the imperial concubine's crown is the heaviest."
Yao Jiaxin smiled. There was no living imperial concubine in Yongzheng's dynasty. Even if he was favored by Nian, he would only be posthumously conferred upon his death. This was not the Qianlong Dynasty, which was a huge street in the imperial concubine. Even the imperial concubines only had two concubines, Nian and Xi.
"Empress, I'll try to put it on." Su Yu was full of attentiveness.
"Okay." Looking at this complex set of court uniforms and accessories that I don't know how to wear, it looks like a headband, collar, earring, and a very beautiful long strap, which looks a bit like a tie, and I don't know what it is.
Su Yu seemed to see the doubts of his little master, and said, "This is the picker, worn on the collar, also called the 'hand towel'."
Yao Jiaxin looked surprised. Such a big golden strap was actually a handkerchief? Well, it was probably just a decorative hand towel, not really for you to wipe your hands.
Su Yu hurriedly introduced the adornments one by one. The collar is called the collar and the headband is called Jinyue. The earrings are made of four-class east beads. Each ear three pliers is like a gourd shape, which looks heavy. There are also three strings of beads - two strings of coral beads to be worn cross-over on the chest, and a string of beeswax Buddha beads can be directly hung on the neck.
After all these things were greeted by her, Yao Jiaxin felt that she could not walk anymore!
The eunuch in charge said as if he was smearing honey: "The empress is really luxurious when wearing court clothes! The empress is very blessed. I believe that she will wear the imperial concubine's court clothes in the future."
Okay, saying so many nice words is just to reward silver. With the 2,000 taels of silver given by Princess Huaike, Yao Jiaxin was much more affordable, so she asked Su Yu to take twenty taels of silver to reward the eunuch in charge.
The eunuch in charge thanked him so much that his mouth was about to grin at his ears. "Because the auspicious day of the enthronement is August, I can't use the winter court uniform, so I made this summer court uniform first. The little master does not have to be anxious. It will be delivered later. Your winter and summer auspicious clothes are also being made. You must not slack off in the acupuncture department."
That’s right, this court suit is similar to the work clothes of later generations, one for summer and one for winter. As for auspicious clothes, it is also a kind of dress, but it is not as formal as court suits and can be worn on ordinary festive days.
After seeing off the eunuch in charge, Yao Jiaxin immediately asked someone to take off her outfit and told Su Yu to keep it in good condition. Anyway, she would not wear it before the title ceremony.
Su Yu looked at it and couldn't help laughing. She whispered: "The Empress is heavy now. What should I do if I become a concubine in the future?"
Yao Jiaxin immediately glared at Su Yu, "You are not allowed to say such words."
Su Yu smiled but said nothing.
Yao Jiaxin rubbed her sore neck, thinking that she would lie in the inner room for a while. Wang Yicheng came in at this time and reported: "Empress, General Zhang, who is in front of the imperial court, is here."
Zhang Qilin?
I'm afraid that the Fourth Master had any reward or instructions, Yao Jiaxin hurriedly cheered up.
Zhang Qilin still looked like a white, fat and round look, smiling like Maitreya Buddha, "I wish you a blessing to Concubine Yao!"
"Eunuch Zhang is exempted from gifts." Yao Jiaxin smiled with a politeness, "Why did Eunuch Zhang come in person? But what is the emperor's will?"
Zhang Qilin still smiled, "It was the emperor who asked the slave to ask, could Fengpin's court uniform fit the Empress's wishes?"
Yao Jiaxin smiled and said, "The court uniform is perfect and luxurious."
"It's good if the Empress is satisfied." Zhang Qilin said again: "When the Emperor of Huang Yuan said that the Empress is not seriously injured, so he said that the Emperor was not in a serious condition and asked the Jingshifang to put your green head sign back."
Yao Jiaxin's smile was stiff: I'll just slack off, I won't be lazy for a few days!
"I understand the emperor's intentions." - I haven't turned her sign for half a month, and the Fourth Master can't wait!
In fact, these days, His Majesty Fourth Master has come to Yongshou Palace to take a nap every now and then. His Majesty Fourth Master has never mentioned the green-headed matter. He probably saw that her lazy thoughts were not revealed. But she delayed again and again. His Majesty Fourth Master was dissatisfied and simply sent an order to serve the room directly.
He is so domineering, he can't wait a few more days. Yao Jiaxin complains.
So that night, His Majesty the Fourth Master flipped her sign and tortured her hard.
"Tian'er is really not good." His Majesty's low voice full of danger was heard.
Yao Jiaxin felt excited and said timidly: "The weather is too hot, and I am too lazy to move, so I want to be lazy for a few days."
Yinzhen laughed, "My Tian'er is such a lazy person!" - I have clearly rewarded her with her. During these days of recuperation, Tian'er slept until midnight every day, and I have never seen such a lazy woman!
"The ice in Jingren Palace is indeed too much..." Yinzhen's eyes were dark and unclear. Even for the sake of cooling, it was too cool! It was just for this little thing, so he couldn't scold the queen directly, so he just took advantage of the fifteenth day to go to Jingren Palace for dinner, and cared about the queen: Although summer is hot, you should not be greedy for coolness.
The queen is not a fool, she can understand what I mean.
Yao Jiaxin lay in the Fourth Master's broad chest and said nothing.
"Don't worry, there will be so much ice in the main hall of Jingren Palace in the future." Yinzhen said in a light tone.
Yao Jiaxin showed a little surprise. His Majesty the Fourth Master actually beat the queen for her??
Yinzhen sighed quietly. The methods in the harem are often such quiet little tricks. If it is someone else, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to it. It's just that Tian'er... is so well-behaved and so devoted to admiring me. I always feel that it's not good enough.
Yinzhen stroked the wet man in his arms, "If you suffer grievances in the future, you must tell me immediately." - If Wang Yicheng hadn't reported the message secretly, I would have been kept in the dark.
Yao Jiaxin whispered: "The emperor must be busy with the government affairs, so it's not a big deal for concubines." - The jealousy in the harem would not stop for a day. If you bother the Fourth Master every day for these small things, sooner or later, the Fourth Master will annoy her.
"Tian'er..." Yinzhen lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Tian'er was so obedient that it made people feel distressed.
