Seeing that Liang Qiongshi had stood up, the palace servants immediately looked back at Xu Zhaoping, and asked if the king would move to the inner hall together.Xu Zhaoping waved his hand slightly, then turned around and sat aside to review the memorial.
Seeing the king turned around, the palace servant immediately supported Liang Qiongshi's arm, and said softly, "Your Majesty, go this way."
Liang Qiongshi followed the palace servants to the inner hall to take a bath.
After Liang Qiongshi entered the bucket, some palace servants came to help her wash her hair.When the hairpin on her head was removed, the black hair spread out, and the palace servants did not dare to hesitate, and immediately helped Liang Qiongshi to hold up the four-foot long black hair with another bucket, and then used the hair cream made from hibiscus leaves cleaning.
Liang Qiongshi closed her eyes, feeling the palace maid's fingers running through her hair, feeling a little nervous.Maybe he didn't wear any clothes? Then he thought about how no one ever wore clothes while bathing, so he felt a little relieved.Slightly flicked some water on his body and did not move again.Even though she knew there were some petals floating on the water when she was touching the water, she still felt that as long as she moved, her body would definitely be exposed to the eyes of the palace guards.
The bath time passed very slowly.Just washing her hair, Liang Qiongshi felt as if she had washed her hair for an hour.After her hair was washed, a palace official asked her if she wanted to serve her, Liang Qiongshi quickly shook her head, stood up in the barrel, and signaled the palace staff to help her out.
As soon as she got out of the bathtub, Liang Qiongshi felt cold, but she had no choice but to raise her arms and wait for the palace servants to help her dry herself.Even though the cloth for wiping her body was extremely soft, Liang Qiongshi felt particularly awkward.She forcibly resisted the palace man's hand moving on her body, it was really uncomfortable.After getting rid of the water on her body, the palace servants put Liang Qiongshi in a bellyband and a jacket, and then helped her to walk towards the bed.
After an unknown amount of time, Liang Qiongshi was finally helped back to the side of the couch.Then one piece of clothing began to press down on her body.Liang Qiongshi couldn't help frowning, she was already planning to rest, why bother to put on a palace attire.So when some palace servants tried to help her tidy her hair, Liang Qiongshi immediately shook her head lightly and waved her hands again, indicating that they could go down.
Seeing Liang Qiongshi waving her hands, the palace people looked at each other in blank dismay. They remembered that their father-in-law explained that concubine Liang couldn't leave her face, and there was some silence for a while.
A bold palace man turned towards Xu Zhaoping and said in a concerned voice, "Mother, the slaves are worried that the mother will need someone at night."
Liang Qiongshi could hear the concern in the palace servant's voice, a smile appeared on her face, she pointed to the couch behind her, and then waved her hand to signal them that she was going to sleep, and they could retreat.
The palace servant's words dragged Xu Zhaoping out of the memorial. She glanced at Liang Qiongshi who was waving her hand, then waved at the palace maid, indicating that they could step back, and pointed to the candle on her desk.
The palace people understood immediately, and said, "Concubine Liang, the slaves put out the candles and retreated."
Upon hearing the sound, Liang Qiongshi smiled and nodded.
The palace people immediately backed out of the hall in unison, made the sound of turning off the lights on purpose, and closed the door gently.
In an instant, only Liang Qiongshi sitting on the couch and Xu Zhaoping sitting in front of the desk were left in the empty palace.
Seeing that the palace people all retreated, Xu Zhaoping didn't dare to move for a moment.
When she heard that the palace people had all retreated, Liang Qiongshi stood up and calmly began to take off the extremely cumbersome palace attire.
Now that the bathing was over, the screen was removed naturally. Xu Zhaoping watched the palace clothes being taken off by Liang Qiongshi one by one without taking his eyes off her. One piece was removed from her body, Xu Zhaoping curled his lips, but did not make a sound.It's just the way of the heart, lively and fragrant.
After Liang Qiongshi lay down on the couch by herself, she fumbled for a long time to cover the brocade quilt, and when there was no sound, Xu Zhaoping turned her attention to the pile of memorials and began to deal with her day-long delay. thing.
About three hours later, Xu Zhaoping finally finished processing the last memorial.Although very tired, she still got up, gently picked up the candlestick, moved it to the side of the bed, and looked at Liang Qiongshi's sleeping face.
I saw her brows were steady, she should be sleeping peacefully.Xu Zhaoping put the candlestick aside, helped Liang Qiongshi move the arm outside the brocade quilt into the quilt, turned around and extinguished the candle with a dish.Then he walked slowly outside the hall, found a gatekeeper and gently moved out the stack of memorials, and when the memorials were brought out, he turned around and got on the chariot that had been ordered to be prepared.It has been four watch days, and the time to go to court is approaching.
But at this moment, a full moon is still hanging in the sky, and the moonlight is just right.
Chapter 22
When Liang Qiongshi woke up, she didn't know whether it was night or day.Because the world in her eyes is still black.Thinking that the palace servants had already retreated before going to bed, Liang Qiongshi had no choice but to get up by herself. Unexpectedly, the moment her palm touched the couch, someone from the palace supported her back and helped her get up. Get up.
"Your Majesty is going to wash up now?" The clear and crisp voice of the palace maid made Liang Qiongshi's lips twitch unconsciously, the voice was really nice.But thinking that she had asked the palace servants to retreat before going to bed, she couldn't help frowning again.
Seeing the frowning of the empress sitting on the bed, the palace servants immediately remembered what the Grand Duke had said, that the empress does not like strangers, so she said quickly, "The slaves are sent by the Holy Majesty to serve the Empress, the Majesty said, if it is after noon, the Empress will If there is still no movement, the slaves will have to enter the palace to serve."
Hearing that it was sent by the king, Liang Qiongshi's face immediately changed back to smiling.
Seeing the empress smiled, the palace man secretly glanced at the king standing opposite him, and said, "Is the empress going to wash?"
After Liang Qiongshi nodded, another group of palace servants came out one after another immediately, carrying things for washing and lining up in front of the bed.After finishing the arrangement, the palace servants looked at the king Xu Zhaoping.
Seeing that he was ready, Xu Zhaoping nodded to indicate that he could move.The palace servants skillfully helped Liang Qiongshi rinse her mouth and clean her face.After the palace servants had done all this, Liang Qiongshi smiled and nodded at the palace servants, expressing her gratitude, then turned around slightly, and gently poked her feet under the couch, preparing to get off the ground.Since it is past noon, it is time to get up.
Unexpectedly, before her feet hit the ground, Liang Qiongshi felt that someone was holding her feet.The coolness from the soles of her feet made her want to retract her feet.But before she could lift her leg up, a silk sock was already put on her foot.
Then came another sock.
Liang Qiongshi kept landing until the shoes were on her feet, and then she gently put her feet on the ground.
Xu Zhaoping waited for Liang Qiongshi's feet to touch the ground and got up.The man's feet were small and delicate, even though she had stood up, she couldn't help thinking of measuring them again with her palms.Even if it is "the size of the tin ruler is reduced by four points, and the slender jade bamboo shoots are wrapped in light clouds", the delicacy is nothing more than that.
Seeing the king got up, the palace servants said, "Your Majesty, do you want to change?"
Liang Qiongshi nodded lightly, then stood up, her arms were too high, and then there were palace servants busy in front of and behind her, and then some palace servants helped her to the makeup mirror to help her dress up.
Seeing the blue silk hanging down to the ground intertwined in the hands of the palace servants, and finally looped into a woman's bun, Xu Zhaoping felt that her treasures had been put away.Sometimes words are not needed, just watching is enough to feel at ease.
And Liang Qiongshi was sitting in front of the makeup mirror, feeling the sunlight passing through Zhu Hu's cloth on her face, dazed for a moment.Should she go to meet the queen in the palace, or other concubines? If the queen heard that the king treated her like yesterday, would she give her some color and let her know her identity?
It's just that she really doesn't know how many empresses there are in this palace.According to the king's will, her title should be Noble Concubine.I don't know how many people are above her and how many people are below her in this deep palace? Thinking about the other concubines in the king's harem, Liang Qiongshi suddenly felt that the king's weak water three thousand one gourd is really worth it No joke.Although I heard the strange talk of Qian Kingdom in the early years that the king did not accept a concubine, but even if it was the old Huangli, how could he be carried in?
While thinking wildly, Liang Qiongshi stretched out her hand to touch the objects on the makeup mirror table to play with.
Looks like a jade bracelet?
