Chapter 51: Tiny Gadgets
Xu Cairen's grounding order was withdrawn, but it was only a few days before it was withdrawn, and it was not only the grounding order that was removed, Liqing even gave her a seal, from Cairen to Jieyu, it was also a matter of stepping up in one step. Xu Luoxin's non-punishment and reward made some people unhappy, but fortunately, she was not the only one who was rewarded this time, and almost all the concubines who entered the palace with her were also rewarded.
Mengcai and Su Die are both located in Jieyu, ranking second grade. And Bao Lin, the queen of Qin Shujiu and the Book of Rites, is located in the beauty and ranks among the three products. The new concubines in the palace were all rewarded, but only Master Weng called Liqing to forget.
However, it is reasonable for Master Weng to tell Li Qing to forget, after all, she is the only one among the concubines who has not been summoned by Liqing, which is rare in the harem. After entering the palace for more than half a year, I have never called Liqing Zhao lucky, even if it is the palace servant who serves her, sometimes the words spoken behind her back will inevitably make people feel prickly, but this Weng Shishi seems to not care much, and I didn't see her say anything, but she embroidered her own patterns in the palace all day long, either sewing and embroidering something that is not tight, or walking around the palace with a broken clock, and looking at it, he looks like a person who does not fight for grace.
But in this way, it makes those tasteless people who bully the soft and fear the hard chew the root of their tongues behind.
Each of the concubines who entered with her was given a seal, but she was the only one who didn't, and she didn't feel embarrassed, but carefully prepared two sachets and planned to bring them to Zhong Sha Palace as a congratulatory gift. She had embroidered those two sachets for a while, and now they happened to be used for celebration.
After lunch, thinking that the time was almost up, Master Weng called Bao Xi to change his clothes, and then planned to go to the Zhong Broken Palace to congratulate him. After a slight grooming, Master Weng ordered Bao Xi to put away the sachet and get up and set off.
Master Weng did not get the favor, so the use of this palace is naturally not as good as others, a willow-colored shutter gauze skirt was sent by the Ministry of Internal Service when she entered the palace, because she has always been reluctant to wear it, so now it is also new. Wearing this green willow louver gauze skirt, and covering it with a Luo yarn moonlight silk embroidered robe, although it is a little thin in such a season, but this light and plump body is also a different style.
After simply pulling his hair and not making much modification, Master Weng called Bao Xi to take the congratulatory gift he had prepared and walked towards the front Zhong Broken Palace, and he had just arrived at the door and did not make a sound, but listened to the two palace people outside gossiping. I only heard the two palace people whispering outside, and one said that there was only Master Weng living here in this Languan Palace, and he didn't even have a main seat, so he complained that His Majesty didn't want to come. And the other said that the terrain of Languan Palace is the most yin, and it has always been the most disgusting place in the harem, and Master Weng is safe here, and he is not favored. What's more, he also said that this master Weng is an unblessed person, even if he enters the palace, he can't get favor, and he is not as powerful as the palace people in the favored concubines.
Such words are really harsh, so that the whole person's face turned pale when he heard it, and there was no grace in the palace, and this day was indeed not as good as the palace in the palace that favored the concubines. This kind of thing is clear in everyone's hearts, but this clear thing is put on the table, but it makes people feel sad when they hear it.
The two palace people outside really didn't have a door on their lips, and even dared to say such words unscrupulously, at the moment Bao Xi couldn't listen to it, and angrily stepped forward to open the palace door, this opening shocked the two palace people who were gossiping outside, and when they saw that Master Weng was also behind the door, these two palace people were also shocked, and immediately knelt down and asked for sin.
It's please, but this guy who only chews the root of the master's tongue behind his back is angry with Bao Xi, and immediately pointed at her and scolded: "You two are cheating and idle, you only know how to chew the root of your tongue behind your back if you don't do things on weekdays, you dare to arrange Baolin's affairs indiscriminately, is it possible that your life is too long, and you can't go to the court and prison?" ”
Yeting Prison is the most terrifying existence in the palace, who would want to go there, when they heard Bao Xi's words, these two palace people were even more frightened, and they couldn't stop begging for mercy there. There are many people who gossip like this, and after some rebuke, they will be reprimanded and punished. After angrily scolding them, Bao Xi walked to Master Weng's side, and then said softly: "Bao Lin, those two ignorant palace people are all nonsense, you must not take it seriously, lest you hurt your body." ”
The palace people's punishment of Master Weng didn't have the heart to come by herself, and her face was also difficult to see at this time, she forced herself not to think about these things, but this unwanted thing also exists. Bao Xi's reassurance did not make Master Weng feel relieved, but only made Master Weng smile dryly, and then said: "I have these words in this palace, and I don't know what people outside say. ”
"Don't think about it too much, Paulin." Master Weng didn't want to see such a treasure, so he immediately persuaded him: "There is never a shortage of gossip in this palace, and we don't care about those who chew the root of the tongue." Paulin doesn't want to hurt his body because of these people, it's not worth it. ”
"Isn't it worth it? Oh, I'm afraid no one will think that my body is not worth it, I should have known a long time ago, if there is no grace in this harem, no one will want to live comfortably. Originally, I wanted to give Qin Shujiu and them a congratulatory gift, but who knew that because of those two palace people, they were broken, but it made Master Weng cry. Such a grievance is really a grievance for Master Weng, and then Bao Xi said on the side.
"Baolin, there is a sentence that the slave always thinks should be said, in this harem, grace is the top priority, and the rest is not important. The women in this palace, who are not like this, cannot ask for grace except for themselves. ”
If you want to get grace, the most important thing is to ask for yourself, if you ask for others in vain, who knows what will happen in the end? Bao Xi's words are all true, so that Master Weng has to engrave every word in his heart. I am afraid that only Master Weng himself can understand the sourness in his heart, and a burst of sadness makes people feel sorry for him, but this sadness is not the time. Asked Master Weng to think about this matter, Bao Xi couldn't help but say: "Bao Lin Mo has to think more, let's go to Zhong Sha Palace quickly, otherwise I am afraid that I will have to miss the time after a while." ”
It was also called Bao Xi to remind Master Weng that he still had something to do, so he wiped the corners of his eyes with his cuffs at the moment, and only left Languan Palace after his mind calmed down.
On the way to the Zhong Broken Palace, I also met Wei Chongyi and Wei Chongrong, the Wei sisters were playing in the imperial garden with a pair of children, and when they saw Master Weng, they also said that her clothes were too thin, and told her to be careful not to get caught the cold. This Wei Chongyi and Wei Chongrong's advice should be to thank you, and when Master Weng was bowing to thank him, the light tulle happened to spread out when he owed his body, and an emerald green small thing slipped out of his waist.
The six princes and the princess of Ningping were originally fun years, and they were playing on the side, and at this time they happened to be on the side of the teacher, and the emerald green gadget on the side of the teacher slipped out, but the six princes saw it, and immediately went to the front of the six princes and said, "What is that?" The sixth prince's inquiry first made Master Weng at a loss, and then understood what he was asking, untied the small emerald green object on his waist and handed it to the sixth prince, Master Weng asked, "Your Highness is asking about this." ”
"Yes, that's it." After speaking, he took the emerald green gadget from Master Weng, and then put it in his hand to play carefully, this interesting and unseen thing also made Princess Ning Ping feel curious, and she also came up at the moment.
Emerald green gadgets are not a rare thing, they are just grasshoppers made of palm leaves, but these palm leaves can weave such a flexible grasshopper, which makes the six princes feel novel. The grasshopper is the size of a child's palm, but it is as fine as the living thing, the slender body and the thick hind legs and the slender front touch that will gently shake when it moves, the whole grasshopper is placed in the palm of the hand and is delicate and pleasing tightly, if it is not because there is no reaction to how it is moved, it is really possible to mistake it for the prince to catch it in the garden with his playful hands.
Such a thing that can be seen everywhere in the folk is rare for the children of the Heavenly Family, and the six princes and Princess Ningping, who have never seen this thing, are very happy, and both of them are playing with the grasshopper, but it makes the Wei sisters feel funny and can't help but say.
"This grasshopper is really delicate, I haven't seen such a gadget in a long time, but it makes these two children have fun." As soon as Wei Chongyi's words fell, Wei Chongrong also said: "Yes, they have never seen this ordinary folk object, so they will feel strange." By the way, Weng Baolin, where did you get this grasshopper? There are such gadgets in the palace, how can this palace never see it. ”
The most indispensable thing in the palace is the delicate things, but none of these rural things can be seen, and now it is rare to see it must be asked, and Master Weng replied: "If you go back to Zhaoyi Zhaorong, this is the concubine who plays with it when she has nothing to do." ”
"Make it up yourself? I didn't expect Weng Baolin's hand to be so clever? ”
The concubines in the palace can embroider flowers, but such interesting things can't be done, for mothers to make their children happy things are good, at the moment for Weng Shishi is also laughing and talking, the three of them are talking there, who knows how there is actually the cry of Princess Ningping.
The little princess cried so sadly that Wei Chongyi was distressed, so she rushed over immediately, and when she asked, she realized that she had lost the grasshopper fight with the six princes, and she felt wronged before she cried. The six princes have always been sensible, because the princess of Ningping has grown up together for a few months, so many things are for the princess, Xu is also this time I saw this rare thing and liked it tightly, but I fought with the princess.
The princess was unwilling, but the six princes didn't plan to hand it over, and the two of them were stubborn there, which also made the Wei sisters helpless. The children are all the flesh of their hearts, and they don't want any one of them, so Wei Chongyi said: "How is this good, these two children like this gadget, but there is only one grasshopper, but how to tell him to divide the two." ”
This is the case with children, who have to hold what they like in their own hands, and now two children and a grasshopper make it very difficult for this mother. Just when the Wei sisters didn't know how to coax the princess, Master Weng stepped forward and said: "Don't be anxious, if the sixth prince Princess Ningping loves the concubine's inconspicuous gadget, the concubine will make one for them, so as not to have a dispute between the two children, but if they are injured, they will make Your Majesty feel distressed." ”
"Weng Baolin can make one now?" As soon as he heard Weng Baolin say this, Wei Chongrong asked immediately, but he was overjoyed to get Master Weng's response. Being able to make the child happy is naturally the first key, Wei Chongrong was about to make Master Weng faster, but Wei Chongyi broke off her words and said: "It will take some time to think about such a delicate thing, look at Weng Baolin's hurry, there should be something else to do, and staying to make up this object will delay Baolin's matter?" ”
"Chong Yi is serious, how can the concubine have anything important, it's just that Sister Qin and Sister Su received the reward and planned to go to Zhong Sha Palace to knock on the two sisters."
"That's it?" Wei Chongrong, who was asking on the side, said with a sentence: "If you knock on the beautiful woman now, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you in the past, Your Majesty is afraid that you are still in the Zhong Broken Palace at this time, and I am afraid that I won't be able to leave for a while, even if Weng Baolin stays to make a grasshopper, it won't be a problem." It just so happened that His Majesty also said that he would go to the Imperial Garden to see the two princes in a while, and it would be good for Weng Baolin to leave a while for His Majesty to knock An Zai to meet My Fair Lady. After speaking, he was about to come forward and pull Master Weng to weave grasshoppers for the two princes, Liqing was still at Qin Shujiu's place, so it was indeed not suitable to disturb him, so Master Weng also bowed and responded.
"Since Your Majesty is at my sister's place, I think my sister can't see the concubine now, since this is the case, the concubine will make up the grasshopper for the two princes first."
Seeing that this Weng Shishi should be down, the princes should be happy, and the little princess of Ningping stopped crying at the moment, even the six princes were not much interested in the grasshopper in their hands, and after listening to Weng Shishi's words, the little prince threw the grasshopper in his hand to the palace people who were waiting on the side, and then ran to the side of Weng Shishi.
Compared to the grass grasshopper that had already been prepared, the two princes were more curious about how the flexible grass grasshopper was made.
It's so cute.
