Chapter 48: The Gift (II)
I listened and said, "Come in, please." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
When Mrs. Sumire saw this, she got up and said goodbye, "You're busy here, I'll come back another day." Let's talk about it again. ”
I smiled and sent her out, just as Su Su came in.
After seeing each other, Mrs. Sumire returned to Baoyin Pavilion without mentioning it.
Su Su entered the hall, first gave me a salute according to the rules, and still held me and didn't let me return the salute.
I sneered, "Why do you see the outside like this?" ”
Su Su smiled and said: "It is precisely because Zhaoxun treats me well that I have to make an example to others and establish authority for Zhaoxun." ”
I said, "The more I talk about it, the less it looks." What do I want Nawei to do, and it's not the main room that wants everyone to make rules. It's just the same identity as everyone else. ”
Su Su smiled but didn't answer, took a box from the big girl's hand and handed it to Zhan Lu. Tilting his head and smiling, "This box contains a new pill made by my grandfather's family." Basically, the commonly used materials are inside, which are more real than the materials outside, and they are made by their own family members with careful work. Sister Zhaoxun kept it. ”
I accepted it with a smile, "My sister should also prepare a copy for the prince." ”
When Su Su heard this, he said: "Sister Zhaoxun thinks about the prince in everything, but she has to read the prince after receiving a box of pills, this sentiment is really unusual." Sister rest assured, the prince has already prepared it. I actually sent it before, but I heard that I was stopped before I arrived at Ledao Hall, saying that I didn't dare to send it to the prince because of the unknown origin. ”
After listening to these words, I understood. I'm afraid that someone with a heart has taken control of the way of these people, and King Xiao Suri has not really cared about the concubines in the palace, so naturally he has not been able to send it to King Xiao in the past few years.
Seeing that I was already a little tired, Su Su told me to rest more, use more peaceful medicine to nourish my qi and blood, and said goodbye after a few gossips.
XXXIV. Manpower
When Zhan Lu opened the box to look, it was a white porcelain bottle with the name of the pill on each one. Just as he was picking one up and looking at it carefully, Chifu came over and asked, "Do you want to meet the girls?" ”
I turned my head to look at Zhan Lu, then nodded, "I'm going out tomorrow, I'm afraid that some of them will have to follow, so it's good to see you later." ”
Chifu went and brought someone in. This time, four of the girls who were originally on an errand in Duofuxuan were selected and put forward in order, plus the six newly added girls, a total of ten maids came in. Needless to say, the family and the original ones in Duofuxuan are the last few who have just bought them, and the actions are already in order. I think it's because I've been trained by the stewards for a few days.
I glanced over and secretly praised Chifu's recent eyesight. There are those who are beautiful, and there are those who are not outstanding, and there are those who look simple, and there are those who look smart. However, the most important thing is that most of them have clear eyes. Now that I am not on a firm footing, what I want is not simple, so naturally I can't start a fire in my backyard. If the eyes are clear, the mind is generally not too deep. As for the ability to do things, teach it slowly.
Listening to Chifu say the names, origins or previous errands of several people, he told Chifu to settle them well, and let them go down. Only two newly dialed first-class maids were left, respectively called Yinghong and Cui Nong to gossip beside them.
Before, Chifu muttered in her ear that these two were born to the family. Yinghong is the youngest daughter of the steward of Jin'an, who works as an errand in the big study in the outer courtyard, and now Duofuxuan has two first-class vacancies, so she fills in. Her mother Lao Tzu and a brother were originally transferred to Beijing by the queen mother from her mother's Langya Wang family, and later King Xiao opened the mansion alone and allocated it to King Xiao. Cuinong has been serving in Duofuxuan, and the original second-class portion of food.
After dinner, I left Yinghong and Chifu in the inner room. Let's talk about going to the princess's mansion tomorrow. While picking out tomorrow's clothes and jewelry with Chifu, he asked Yinghong which nobles would be present at the banquet in the princess's mansion.
Yinghong is a clever one, and she carefully picks and chooses the important ones back. I turned my head and took a plum blossom and green hosta hairpin in the makeup box and asked Chifu to hand it to her, "It's hard for you to remember clearly, and you can say it clearly." Tomorrow you will be by my side. ”
Yinghong accepted the reward, and didn't look at the hairpin, only a smile flowed on her face, "The maid can be liked by Zhaoxun, it is the creation of the maid." The servant should serve Zhaoxun wholeheartedly. "I look at it and I'm really happy to be valued by me.
I smiled and sent her to set up her things, leaving Chifu to help me remove the hairpin ring.
After changing into my bedclothes, Chifu saw that I was a little worried, so she said, "Are you worried about tomorrow's response?" Tomorrow, Zhan Lu and I, plus Yinghong and Tong's mother, will be by Miss's side." It's okay to think about it. ”
I leaned on the big pillow and watched Chifu take a special copper cover to extinguish the extra candle flame, "Where is it for this reason, no matter how bad it is, it turns out that I followed my mother to Beppu and walked through the house." It's just that I see that Duofuxuan has more and more people in the palace, but now you are the only one who can really trust you with the truth. Especially outside the palace, there is a lack of people who can walk around and do things. It's a bit tricky. The place where my brother was serving was not far away, but I couldn't find anyone to inquire about it, and I didn't know what was going on. ”
Chifu also said, "Yes, the maid is also anxious about this matter." Just looking at the four new girls bought today, it may have made some difference. ”
was racking his brains to think about who could entrust this matter, and there was a wishful greeting from outside--it was King Xiao who came. I motioned for Chifu to withdraw.
When I woke up the next morning, I saw that Xiao Wang had already dressed up, cleaned up and stopped at the table to use fine snacks. I can't help but be a little anxious.
I blame Chifu for not calling me earlier.
Chifu pursed her lips and smiled: "The prince is blocking it." ”
King Xiao glanced at me from a distance and said seriously: "Today's snacks are not very delicious. The lonely king can dine with beautiful scenery. ”
At first, I heard him say that he was unpalatable, and I was about to tell Zhan Lu to arrange a few other things, but then I understood and couldn't help but gently smack him, "It's not serious." Today, the prince and the five princes went to the horse farm, but do they want to ride horses? Although the prince's injuries have healed, the time for recuperation is still short, so it is better not to affect the injuries. ”
Xiao Wang put the snack in his hand into his mouth, patted the crumbs on his hands, wiped his hands with the hot towel handed over by Zhan Lu next to him, and rinsed his mouth with tea unhurriedly. Only then did he slowly put down the teacup, paced to my side, and saw that my long hair was scattered and was about to be combed, and smiled and held my chin with his hand, "Don't worry." It's already pretty good. ”
He rubbed his fingers a few times, and when he saw that I was a little embarrassed, he sleeved his hand, "There are more than a dozen new military horses in Sima Jian Horse Farm today, so I can't help but take a look." The fifth brother had a lot of good horse trainers around him, so he made an appointment. With the fifth brother here, he won't let me ignore the injuries on my body. You can rest assured. Another day, the lonely king will bring you with him. The royal horse rides the wind with a red face, how fast. ”
After saying that, he leaned over and imprinted a kiss beside my temples, like a dragonfly gently falling on the grass by the water in the summer dusk: cautious and with some mastery of it.
