55. War
Zhan Lu said: "It was privately rewarded by the queen's mother, and the Ministry of Rites did not have a list for the house, so I didn't have time to figure it out." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Zhao Xun and wait, I'm going to get it for Zhao Xun. ā
For a moment, Zhan Lu turned around, followed by Cuinong and Ko'er. The two of them put the box on the rosewood lingzhi-shaped table in front of the couch, and bowed and retreated.
Zhan Lu opened the boxes one by one, and the treasure was shining for a while. Two boxes contain pearls, and the other two contain gemstones of various colors. They are all high-quality goods made of the head and face, and they are all carefully separated by the inner layer of flannel.
I picked up a bead from the first layer, the size of a fingernail, about eight minutes in weight, round and smooth, with shiny skin. Turning his head and asking Zhan Lu, "Now that this kind of bead is outside, what price can it be sold for?"
Zhan Lu showed an embarrassed look: "This servant doesn't know. Why don't I inquire and get back to you?"
I bowed slightly.
During dinner, King Xiao entered the door with Xiao Anzi.
I smiled and said, "The prince seems to have come back with some food." ā
Tong's mother smiled and went up with Ruyi to serve him and went to the clean room. I was a little surprised, according to these things, I don't need to do it myself with a grandmother like Tong's mother.
Just thinking about it, King Xiao had already changed his clothes and came out. I glanced at him, "The prince went to the horse farm, and when he came back, he added some murderous aura." ā
The corners of King Xiao's mouth curled up when he heard this, "Nizi's eyes are so bright, you have discovered this." ā
After eating, I took the purple purse flying needle from the previous days under the lamp, and Xiao Wang sat on the side reading a book. Chifu came over and lit the candle.
For a moment, only the sound of pages turning at intervals could be heard in the room.
I looked up and saw that it was "Chronicles of the Territory". My heart jumped slightly, and after weighing it for a while, I still asked, "Has there been a war recently?"
When King Xiao heard this, his hand turning the book paused slightly, glanced at me, put the book down, and said with a slight smile: "Why do you ask that?"
"Sima Jian has always only kept horses for the royal hunting ground, but when he got up early and heard what the prince said, more than a dozen military horses came, so the concubine wondered if this was the reason?"
King Xiao came over and sat beside me, stretched out his hand to take me into his arms: "Gu Xiaoguan really knows a lot, and he knows so well about Sima Jian's routines, and he can see the subtleties. There's something about the northwest side of the country. However, my Daqi boy is not a vegetarian, so I am afraid that he will not succeed. ā
But he didn't say anything more about whether there was a war or not, changed the topic, and asked in a relaxed tone: "How are you doing today in the Yongjia Imperial Sister's Mansion?"
I saw that he deliberately restrained the condensation between his eyebrows, so I stopped asking, and replied with a smile: "The imperial sister treats Xiaoguan very well, and I want to send a few people as companions to Xiaoguan." also gave the second son a nickname with Xiaoguan, called Liusheng. Does the prince think it sounds good?"
King Xiao listened to the words of Princess Yongjia to send a few people, his eyes moved slightly and glanced at me, and he quickly responded to what I said about the six lives: "Both of you think it is good, naturally it is good." ā
"Sister Ruan took me and Mrs. Sumire with me today. I took Tong's mother with me. It's a shame to have them, otherwise Xiaoguan really can't tell the difference between such orders and ladies. I looked up at him, "Today, at the banquet, I heard Mrs. Li from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion at the next table say to Mrs. Liu from the Hubu Shangshu Mansion, 'Our new eleventh lady who has entered the palace is also please.'" But I don't know why I came. ā
King Xiao stretched out his hand and pulled off the long hairpin on my head with the Hetian white jade carving on his eyebrows, and my bun slowly loosened, and a long hair suddenly spread out, and a few strands hit his hand.
Gently rubbing his chin on the top of my head a few times, Xiao Wang Fang said: "King Wei's good uncle, I have found another beauty in the Lin clan, and I entrusted Concubine Jiang Shu a few days ago, and I have recommended it to my father. ā
I couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded by the actions of the Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion, "But Lin Wanyi has just been given death." Could it be that the Lin clan didn't have the slightest touch? It's only been a few days, and another one has been sent!"
"Touched?" King Xiao slowly untied the knots on my clothes, raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Naturally, there is a touch: there is a day of King Wei, and only then can there be a good life for the Lin family." They understood this very well. ā
As he spoke, his hands were not idle, and he was deceived after a while.
ā¦ā¦
Looking out of the unclosed curtain, there was a cowpea red porcelain willow leaf vase on the window strip case, and a few white phalaenopsis orchids were inserted. The branches drooped, and the petals seemed to tremble and shake in the storm.
Biting his lip to hold back the moans that almost escaped his mouth, his mind was in chaos, but he remembered a sentence: the wind wants to turn, and the softness is too delicate. The far green world has been rained at night, and the cold sand has a faint tide. Who dreams of Lan Yuan.
I closed my eyes in resignation.
When I woke up in the morning, King Xiao had already left. I felt weak, so I snuggled up in bed and didn't want to move.
Chifu brought a bowl of fish fillet porridge and a few side dishes on a tray.
Then he whispered to me and asked, "Did the young lady tell the prince about the princess giving you a servant?"
I bowed my head and said, "Naturally, the prince must know, and he will act in the future." Otherwise, even if you don't talk about it now, it is impossible to interact with them outside the palace in the future without going through the palace portal, and the stewards in the palace will know, and the prince will naturally know. It's better to let these people cross the clear road in the palace first. ā
As he was talking, Zhan Lu came in with two maids, and said with a smile, "Please Zhao Xun'an." This is Xiaoqiu and Feng'er who have just been promoted from the third class to the second class. Originally, we could know the market of some beads by asking the people who bought them directly, but I guess our own people asked in more detail. So he let the two of them go out to the East Market for a walk. ā
I looked at Zhan Lu approvingly, "You think very thoughtfully. Let's wait for them outside. ā
Chifu took the tray and served me with Zhan Lu to change my clothes and go outside. The two girls had already knelt down in unison and saluted.
I sat down slowly, glanced at them, and smiled, "Get up." I just need to be faithful here, and I don't usually have such big rules. ā
Turning his head and asking Zhan Lu, "You just said that their names are Xiaoqiu and Feng'er?"
Zhan Lu replied: "Yes, the two of them were originally on the palace Zhuangzi, and when they entered the palace, they pointed to Duofuxuan. I wonder if they have the blessing to ask Zhaoxun to change his name?"
When the two of them heard this, they also said crisply: "Please also give Zhao Xun a name." ā
I took a sip of the teacup and said with a smile: "It turned out to be good, why bother to change the master's name." ā
The slightly chubby child named Feng'er, but he was born white and tender, and when he heard it, he said: "Zhaoxun doesn't know, I don't think I think it is in Zhuangzi, but when I enter the palace, there are always people who laugh at the servant." Ask where the wind and rain are. If there is no wind and rain, how can there be abundance. ā
I laughed, this joker is also a narrow-minded person. It's not blindly vulgar, but it knows the words. I looked at the two of them and asked, "Are you two from a Zhuangzi?"
Xiaoqiu was a little shy, "If you go back to Zhaoxun, yes." Both of us were elected to the house from Qingqiu Village. The maidservant's family is in charge of the accounts on the Zhuangzi. The maid was originally a standout in Zhuangzi, but when she came to the house, she knew that there were people outside the house. The servant has little knowledge, and he is really a little rustic. However, in the future, follow Zhaoxun and increase his knowledge, and in the future, he should be no worse than those sisters who laugh at the maids. ā
I saw that although she was a little restrained and ungenerous, she spoke in a clear manner and knew the key.
Then he said gently: "Since your family has a skill, why should you be arrogant." If you have this ambition, you will do things well in the future. Whether you come from Zhuangzi or are in the capital, here you are, it's all the same. As long as people don't look down on themselves and keep working hard, they will not always be looked down upon, and there will always be times when they raise their eyebrows. ā
