Since that banquet, Hua Xiu's pursuit of becoming an outstanding Consort has become more determined. Every day, she gets up before dawn, walks lightly through the long corridors of the Embroidered Cloud Pavilion, and heads towards the learning place in the palace. Her skirt gently sways in the morning light, like dewdrops at dawn.
In the learning place, Hua Xiu and other Consorts study calligraphy, painting, and music together. Although she is not outstanding in these artistic fields, her relentless diligence and perseverance gradually improve her knowledge in these subjects. Every stroke and every line she makes reveals her effort.
In the study of court etiquette, Hua Xiu has shown her unique wit and humor. Faced with intricate and rigorous etiquette, she always manages to cleverly find her own way, neither violating the rules nor losing her unique personality. This makes her appear more relaxed and humorous in her interactions with other Consort.
Whenever she encounters difficulties in her studies, Consort Liu always appears by her side like a warm sunshine. Consort Liu gives Hua Xiu the most intimate guidance and encouragement in her gentle and wise manner. Her words are always full of wisdom, helping Hua Xiu find her direction in this complex court.
One day, while studying court etiquette, Hua Xiu casually mentioned her love for food, her eyes shining with innocence and her smile filled with longing for delicacies: " Sister Liu, the palace pastries are truly delicious. Every bite makes all worries disappear."
Upon hearing this, Consort Liu smiled gently and said, " Sister Xiu, your innocence and passion are truly charming. But remember, even in the palace, one must be cautious about what one eats."
Hua Xiu chuckled lightly after listening, with a hint of playfulness in her eyes: "Don't worry, Sister Liu, Hua Xiu won't forget the palace rules because of delicious food."
Within the palace walls, Hua Xiu gradually learned how to skillfully handle complex interpersonal relationships. Relying on her sincerity and kindness, she gradually gained the trust and closeness of other Consorts. Even when encountering occasional gossip, Hua Xiu always resolved it with her optimistic attitude, never letting these trivial matters affect her mood.
Hua Xiu's innocence remains undiminished. In the palace, she is often the source of laughter and joy. While studying, her casual and playful words always bring a smile to others. In the garden, she plays and frolics with the palace maids, her laughter clear and melodious like the sound of silver bells, always bringing those around her into a joyful mood.
One day, Hua Xiu and the palace maids were picking fresh fruits in the garden. She ate as she picked, her face filled with pure joy. When she saw a particularly tempting fruit, she couldn't help but exclaim in delight, "Oh, look at how delicious this fruit is, I can't resist tasting it!" As she spoke, she put the fruit into her mouth, the juice staining the corners of her lips.
The palace maids on the side couldn't help but laugh when they saw this. One of the maids teased, "Your Majesty, it seems that your gluttonous nature is truly unchangeable!"
Hua Xiu chuckled at the remark, with a mischievous glint in his eyes, "To find such small pleasures in the palace, isn't it delightful? As long as I can enjoy such delicious food, why wouldn't I indulge?"
In the afternoon, Hua Xiu and Consort Liu were enjoying tea together in the garden of the Embroidered Cloud Pavilion. As flower petals drifted in the breeze, the palace maids whispered softly, creating a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere. Hua Xiu sipped her tea with a satisfied smile and said, "Sister Liu, this tea is truly fragrant and sweet."
Consort Liu smiled gently and said, "Sister Xiu, your performance in the palace has been improving. During this time, you have not only learned many court etiquettes but also established good relationships with many Consorts."
Hua Xiu showed a hint of shyness on her face: "It's all thanks to Sister Liu's guidance that Hua Xiu was able to find her place in the palace."
At this moment, a palace maid hurriedly arrived at the garden, holding a plate of exquisite pastries: "Your Majesty, these are freshly baked pastries prepared especially for you."
Hua Xiu saw the dessert and her eyes lit up. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, this dessert looks really delicious!" She excitedly picked up a piece and tasted it gracefully.
Consort Liu looked at Hua Xiu's innocent and pure appearance and couldn't help but smile, saying, "Sister Xiu, your nature as a foodie will never change."
Hua Xiu was eating dim sum with a happy smile on her face: "Sister Liu, you know this is my favorite. Although the palace is complex, there are many beautiful things here."
As time passed, Hua Xiu's life in the palace gradually fell into place. She not only learned how to survive in the court, but also how to find her own happiness in this embroidered palace. Her presence slowly injected vitality and color into the life of the palace.
Under the corridor of the Embroidered Cloud Pavilion, the sunlight filtered through the soft gauze, adding a warm atmosphere to the entire space. Hua Xiu held a delicate embroidered needle, surrounded by a group of Consorts who were interested in the art of embroidery. Her fingertips danced lightly on the embroidered fabric, and every stitch was filled with life and vitality, as if blooming beautiful flowers on the cloth.
The Consorts present were watching Hua Xiu's embroidery art with great interest and admiration. They tried to imitate her movements but found it not easy. Seeing this, Hua Xiu gently guided them, saying, "Hold the embroidery needle firmly, but not too forcefully. The tip of the needle lightly pierces the fabric, like a gentle ripple, following the direction of the thread, guiding it slowly..."
Her voice is gentle and patient, filled with a deep love for the art of embroidery. Whenever she stitches an embroidered piece, she always offers timely encouragement and guidance, creating a relaxed and pleasant learning atmosphere.
Consort Liu stands quietly to the side, her eyes shining with affection. She looks at Hua Xiu and sighs, saying, "Sister Xiu's embroidery skills are truly remarkable. These consorts are fortunate to have the opportunity to learn from you."
Hua Xiu listened and a faint smile appeared on her face. She modestly responded, "Sister Liu, you flatter me. I am just doing what I love. Sharing this passion with everyone makes me very happy."
She continued to guide the Consorts, and whenever someone embroidered a beautiful pattern, Hua Xiu would show a contented smile. Her laughter echoed like a clear spring in the corridor, adding a pleasant melody to this beautiful afternoon.
Under the guidance of Hua Xiu, the Consorts also gradually improved, showing satisfied and proud expressions on their faces.
As time passed, Hua Xiu's influence in the palace gradually grew. Her innocence, cheerfulness, and optimistic attitude helped her build good interpersonal relationships in the harem. Her interactions with other Consorts were filled with harmony and warmth, gradually becoming a breath of fresh air in the harem.
At lunchtime, Hua Xiu invited several close Consorts to taste the delicacies of the palace. The table was filled with a variety of exquisite dishes, displaying the superb culinary skills of the palace. Hua Xiu's eyes sparkled with a love for food as she softly introduced the unique qualities of each dish to the Consorts, her smile as warm and joyful as a sunny spring day.
One of the Consorts, looking at the array of delicious food, couldn't help but admire, "Embroidered Clouds Consort, your interests are truly diverse. Whether it's embroidery or food, they are both amazing."
Hua Xiu smiled gently, with a sparkle of liveliness in her eyes: "Living in the palace, one can sometimes feel oppressed, but as long as there is joy in the heart, one can find happiness in the ordinary."
During this relaxed and pleasant lunch, Hua Xiu carefully served Consorts and shared her unique insights on each dish. She introduced each exquisite delicacy, explaining how to pair and savor them, making every word lively and interesting.
When a brightly colored roast goose was served, Embroidered eyes showed excitement: "The roast goose has a golden crispy skin and tender juicy meat inside, it is definitely the highlight of today." With that, she delicately placed the roast goose on the plates of each Consort, her movements graceful and her eyes full of anticipation.
The Consorts tasted the roast goose and praised it endlessly. Seeing this, Hua Xiu smiled contentedly, her eyes forming a crescent shape, and a happy smile spread across her lips.
