Chapter Eighty-Eight: Miscellaneous Matters in the Palace

(Ask for pink!) Ask for pink! Ask for pink! The gods behind are so fierce.,There's a danger of being exploded at any time.,"_《)

Lu Yanwan and Lu Qian took the wontons back to the ear room, the little palace maids were still sitting inside, Lu Qian smiled coldly, and pretended to say to Lu Yanwan: "Wanwan, you are good, Her Royal Highness the princess spoils you so much, you will be rewarded for any good things, in addition to the emperor and queen in this plain yarn wonton palace, only Her Royal Highness the princess can send the imperial dining room to do it at any time, I have never eaten it, this time it is really stained with your light." ”

Those little palace maids pretended to be doing their own thing, their ears were pricked up, listening to Lu Qian say this, the expression on his face suddenly red for a while, white for a while, and he regretted it in his heart, he knew that this new palace maid was so favored, they were not so clearly aimed at her, and now they were afraid that he would hold a grudge in his heart and find an opportunity to retaliate against them, at this moment they regretted listening to Narcissus's instigation.

No matter how much the little palace maids regret it in their hearts, Lu Yanwan and the two of them are eating wontons very happily, the wontons made by such trouble are really extraordinary, and the portion is also very large, Lu Hengwan eats a bowl in the evening, and he already feels very full, and the wonton soup is also drunk, as Li Yufen said very delicious, she has never wasted food at all, she has tasted the pain of hunger in her previous life, and she naturally cherishes food more in this life.

Not long after Lu Yanwan finished eating, Li Yufen sent a palace maid to call her again, and Lu Yanwan knew that it should be Li Wei who came.

When Lu Hui arrived in the living room late, Li Yufen was having tea with Li Wei, Li Yufen saw her come in, so she winked with Li Wei, Li Wei looked up and looked faintly, the peach blossom eyes flickered slightly, and his attitude was as arrogant as ever.

Lu Wei saluted with the two of them before the evening, and stood beside Li Yufen, Li Wei drank tea, looked at her for a while, and then slowly said: "It's a bit like a palace maid, and I'll serve Fen'er well in the future, I'm going back in two days, it's really messy here in the capital recently, I'll say goodbye to you before leaving, I'm afraid there will be no chance to meet again in the future." ”

"Then the slave maid will wish you a smooth journey to the little prince." Lu Yan said to Li Wei politely.

Li Wei pursed his lips and said with some dissatisfaction: "You look really boring, aren't you quite bold, don't always be respectful to me like those people, it's too boring, I originally liked you girl, but I, as an elder, are always not good at robbing people with my niece, you have a future by staying by Fen'er's side than staying by my side." ”

"That's natural, Wanwan is my life-saving benefactor, naturally different from others, and when I build a princess's mansion in the future, I will definitely help Wanwan find a wishful man." Li Yufen raised her little face and said triumphantly.

The expression on Lu Yanwan's face was a little sneering, and she felt that this little princess couldn't help but think too long-term, but her heart for herself still moved Lu Yanwan very much.

Li Yufen rarely saw Li Yan recently, so she couldn't help but complain to Li Wei, "Little uncle, do you know what my father has been busy with recently, I haven't seen him for almost a month, and he hasn't come to see me for so long." ”

Li Wei hesitated for a moment, but still replied to Li Yufen: "Anyway, this matter is not a secret, isn't it because of the war with Zeguo, our Great Zhou has already died an envoy, the emperor is naturally angry in his heart, this morning, the 50,000 troops sent out of the city, I heard that the son of the dead envoy is also inside, it seems to be the son of the Marquis of Wu'an, called Jian Yu's ......"

"Bang dang!" Lu Yanwan was pouring tea, but suddenly heard Li Wei mention Jian Yu's name, her hand was unstable, and the teacup fell to the ground, she immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty, "Please punish Her Royal Highness the princess!" ”

Li Yufen naturally wouldn't punish Lu Yanwan for such a trivial matter, so she immediately stood up and asked, "It's okay, it's not hot, it's just a cup, you don't have to kneel down at every turn, get up quickly." ”

Lu Yanwan didn't get up immediately, but slowly picked up the broken porcelain on the ground first, knowing that his fingers couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Li Wei seemed to notice her abnormality, squinted, touched his chin and asked, "Isn't it...... Wanwan, do you know this Jian Yu? ”

Lu Haowan hadn't fully recovered his feelings, and his fingers were almost cut by broken porcelain, so he settled down before he replied: "...... I don't know, how can I know such a son, it's just that I've heard his name in the workshop before. Lu Yanwan thought that Li Wei was about to leave Beijing, and she would not investigate the relationship between her and Jian Yu, so she simply lied.

"That's it......" Li Wei is not such a foolish person, obviously he doesn't believe Lu Yanwan's words, he said in a long voice, and then shook his head, and continued very regretfully: "I really appreciate this Jian Yu, but the sword on this battlefield is ruthless, his father has already folded in, he goes, I think it is also more auspicious, after all, those barbarians in Zeguo are not easy to deal with, otherwise we would not have lost the battles in front of us so badly." ”

"Little uncle! How can you increase the prestige of other countries and destroy our own morale, what kind of thing is Zeguo, we have a lot of resources and resources, and there are so many elite soldiers, we must be able to beat these barbarians to the ground, hum, when the time comes, they dare to be arrogant! Li Yufen gave birth to a small fist and said angrily.

"Yes, yes, yes! Fen'er is right, those Zeguo barbarians will be vulnerable when they encounter our elite soldiers of the Great Zhou. For the ignorant Li Yufen, Li Wei naturally echoed him and said.

Lu Yuwan had already sorted out the pieces of the teacup on the ground, she didn't hear Li Yufen and Li Wei's words, she kept thinking about Jian Yu in her head, it turned out that he was on the battlefield like this, with the pain of losing his father, no wonder when he met him in the previous life, he always showed a sadness on his body, at that time he had been in the army for several years, but Zeguo had not been completely repelled by the Great Zhou, this battle lasted for several years, until the year he died in his previous life, it was not completely over, and now it is just a beginning, If Jian Yu still continues the rules of his previous life in this life, at least he will not be in danger of his life in the short term, but it may be a few years later, but in this life, she may not have the opportunity to reach the barracks like in the previous life, and how to change the fate of Jian Yu's death, Lu Yuwan suddenly felt very sad in her heart, she finally found that her strength was always small, even if she knew what about the future, some things were still not her ability to change, she could save Shishi's life, save Qin Qin's life, But she can't save the lives of all the people who died early, maybe even her own life may not be fully guaranteed, Lu Yanwan felt for the first time that maybe having rights is also a good thing, so she can use the power in her hands to change some things, maybe some of her original ideas are wrong, whether it is revenge or revenge, she must first make herself strong enough to complete those things she wants to accomplish and save those people she wants to save.

Li Wei sat for a while and was about to leave, Li Yufen asked Lu Xiwan to send her out, and the two walked to the door of the hall, Li Wei turned around and asked her, "You actually know that Jian Yu, right?" ”

Lu Yanwan didn't reply immediately, and after being silent for a while, he spoke: "What if you know him or not, anyway, the slave and maid may not have any intersection with him in the future." ”

Li Wei thought about it and chuckled, "That's right, I don't know if he has a life to come back." After speaking, he waved his hand with Lu Yanwan, "Okay, let's send it here, I think we will definitely have the opportunity to meet in the future, in fact, I like you a lot, if you are not married next time we meet, be my concubine, the master will not dislike you for breaking your appearance." ”

Lu Huiwan bent down to send Li Wei away, and listened to his last sentence, but he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, this person is really self-inflicted, who wants to be a concubine for him, it's okay if he doesn't say this, but he wants to pray after saying this, and it's better not to meet again in the future.

The days in the palace are much easier than in the workshop, Li Yufen's seven or eight palace maids only revolve around her every day, and there is naturally not much to do when it comes to everyone, and no matter how rough work such as cleaning and laundry is not done by them, Li Yufen likes Lu Yanwan, and naturally she will not let her work, her daily work is to talk to the little princess, play chess, and sometimes play the pipa and guqin to Li Yufen, Li Yufen likes to listen to Lu Huiwan play the pipa, not only because Lu Huiwan is skilled, According to Li Yufen's original words: When listening to Wanwan playing the pipa, it is as if you have become a person in that song, and you will cry and laugh before you know it, that feeling is really amazing.

Lu Yanwan also likes to play, she is never tired of it, and her life is so leisurely and comfortable, although Narcissus occasionally makes some trouble with her, but she is afraid of Li Yufen after all, but she doesn't dare to be blatant, just make some small moves behind her back, these Lu Huiwan encountered a lot when she was in the workshop, naturally she is not afraid at all, and she can also use some small means to make Narcissus suffer a few dark losses, and after a few times, she has stopped a lot.

Unconsciously, the days are at the end of the year, Jun Qishan, the queen, has been sick since the Jun family was impeached, and the illness did not improve until the beginning of the month, Lu Huiwan naturally did not feel that Jun Qishan was really sick, I am afraid that there are more heart diseases, originally Jun Qishan is getting older and older, but her stomach has not moved, and she planned to find a woman from her own family to enter the palace to give birth to a son for herself, but she didn't expect to be slapped in the face by Li Yan, and even her face was almost lost, and she was naturally unhappy in her heart, saying that she was sick for several months, I just want to make a gesture to Li Yan, but this pretending to be sick can't be too much, the New Year in the palace is a big event, if there is no queen like her to preside over the overall situation, it will always be unsightly.

Jun Qishan's illness has recovered, and Li Yufen, the "daughter", will naturally resume her daily morning and dusk. Li Yufen was very happy about Jun Qishan's recovery, but Lu Xiwan came into contact with her these days, and felt that she was not very close to Jun Qishan, the queen mother, but the people in this palace seem to like to be a mother and son, but in fact, this is the most fatherless place, mother not mother, son not son, brother not brother, brother not brother, no brother is not brother, and no matter how every emperor sits in that position, even the children who died in the palace are countless.

In the past, Li Yufen asked Jun Qishan to say goodbye, and she asked Narcissus and Lu Qian to follow, but now she asked Lu Yanwan: "Do you want to go with me to see the queen mother, the queen mother hasn't seen you yet, just introduce you to her." ”

Lu Xiwan didn't want to see Jun Qishan, not to mention her various entanglements with the Jun family, only Jun Qishan, she also felt that it was very dangerous, and none of the queens who could get the reputation of "virtuous queen" was simple. However, since Li Yufen proposed it, Lu Yanwan was not easy to refuse, and in the end, she and Narcissus would definitely accompany Li Yufen to greet Jun Qishan.

The Fengzao Palace where the queen lives is not far from Li Yufen's bedroom, Lu Huiwan followed Li Yufen for about a quarter of an hour to arrive, the palace maids of Fengzao Palace led a few of them to the main hall to sit down, there are already a few people inside, a few concubines and a few princesses younger than Li Yufen, I don't know if Li Yan has a father-in-law face, several concubines in the palace gave birth to daughters, and sons are not nothing, but the number is small and they don't live long, and now the oldest prince in the palace is only eight years old, but the identity of the biological mother is not high, is just a palace maid, after giving birth to a prince, Li Yan made her a nobleman, the child naturally can't be let her raise, originally this child is of course to be raised by Jun Qishan, who has no son under her knees, but obviously Li Yan doesn't trust her so much, and only specially found a few experienced female officials and grandmothers to raise her, Jun Qishan was angry with Li Yan for a while for this matter, but Li Yan made a decision, and he would never change it lightly.

Li Yan is not a person who indulges in women, just as the emperor is concerned, he is still very dedicated, the daily morning dynasty has never been missing, there are not many women in the harem, there are only twenty or thirty people with titles, but less than half of them are favored, and most of the people sitting in this palace are the favored concubines in the harem.

Lu Yanwan just glanced at it very quickly, and was amazed in his heart, but he didn't expect that Li Yan's preferences were quite extensive, and the women sitting in the hall could be described as fat and thin, all of them were painted with exquisite makeup, and at first glance, it was really dazzling. Li Yufen didn't seem to like these little wives of her father, she raised her head high, didn't sweep them much from the corner of her eyes, and walked to her seat in front of her and sat down, and sitting opposite her should be a high-grade concubine, wearing a peach-colored corset palace dress, squeezing the pair of full balls on the chest to be fuller, like a pair of ripe peaches, which makes people salivate at a glance.

Although the concubine's face is not as attractive as her figure, it is also delicate and beautiful, and the big phoenix eyes were raised, and she said to Li Yufen opposite: "The princess also came here so early, it is really filial." ”

Li Yufen didn't have much smile on her face, and replied lightly: "Where is the virtuous concubine Niangniang who came early, I'm afraid that no one here is earlier than you, but the queen mother may not be very happy when she sees you." ”

Concubine Xian was choked by Li Yufen's words, and a flash of anger flashed on her face, but she still maintained her superficial demeanor, smiled coldly, and did not speak again, but scolded secretly in her heart: Little hoof, I'm afraid you don't have many days to be rampant, I don't remember villains now, let you ......

The other people in the hall obviously didn't want to cause trouble, they all lowered their heads and drank tea by themselves, and didn't speak, Li Yufen would not cause trouble again, looking at the furnishings in the hall in a daze. After about a quarter of an hour, Jun Qishan finally came, the sunlight shining through the cracks in the window, and the incense lit in the stove emitted white smoke.

Lu Xiwan watched Jun Qishan walk slowly, there were a few wisps of smoke floating around her, and she felt like a dream. Jun Qishan's spirit is not very good, she has lost a lot of weight compared to the time Lu Xi saw her a few years ago, although her appearance is still gentle and beautiful, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows seem to have some lines, although she is covered by thick makeup powder, she can still see that Lu Xiwan knows that Jun Qishan is only twenty-eight years old this year, which is about the same age as Qin Qin, but Qin Qin looks at least five years younger than her, it seems that she is not easy to sit in the position of queen.

Jun Qishan sat down on the upper seat, and the people in the palace bowed to her and said, "Meet the queen, the queen Jin'an." ”

Jun Qishan nodded slightly, glanced at the people below, and then motioned for everyone to sit down, and then looked at Li Yufen, and said with a smile: "Fen'er, I haven't seen you in this palace for a while, why do you feel like you're a little fatter again." ”

Li Yufen pouted depressedly when she heard this, stood up and said, "Queen Mother, you are laughing at Fen'er again." Saying this, the person had already arrived at Jun Qishan's side, took her arm and said, "But why have you lost weight again, Fen'er is really distressed to look at, have you eaten well, have you recovered from your illness?" ”

Jun Qishan still patted Li Yufen's hand with a smile on her face and replied: "Don't worry, the queen mother's body is already well, and the imperial doctor said that it is okay, but you have to take care of it well, you can be less naughty in the future, so that the queen mother and the father can save worry." ”

Li Yufen smiled, stuck out her tongue cutely, and then got tired of being by Jun Qishan's side for a while before being coaxed back to her place by Jun Qishan.

The next thing is Jun Qishan's routine questioning of various concubines, especially to Concubine Xian, because these days when Jun Qishan was sick, Li Yan asked Concubine Xian to take care of the harem, and now that Jun Qishan is sick, this right will naturally be withdrawn, and there are many things that she naturally wants to ask clearly.

Li Yufen was impatient to listen to these things, so she sat on the seat and lowered her head to play with the sachet on her skirt, this sachet was made for her by Lu Yanwan herself, and there were many kinds of flowers and plants that are good for the body, although it cannot be invasive, but it can make the body healthier.

Finally, after Jun Qishan finished talking to the concubines, she asked them to retire, leaving Li Yufen to come down and have breakfast with her.

Jun Qishan "recovered from a serious illness", and the food was naturally very light, but in order to accommodate Li Yufen's taste, she asked the palace maid to serve all kinds of snacks and set up a full table, which looked very rich, but Li Yufen didn't come here to eat, after drinking a bowl of bird's nest porridge, she pointed to Lu Yuwan and Jun Qishan and said: "Queen Mother, have you seen her?" ”

Jun Qishan didn't pay attention to the palace maid beside Li Yufen, but when she was suddenly asked like this, she looked at Lu Yuwan carefully for a while, it had been more than three years since Jun Qishan last saw Lu Yufen, so she just felt that this person was a little familiar, but she didn't remember where she had seen her. Jun Qishan just looked at Li Yufen and asked, "It seems a little familiar, which palace maid was originally serving in, how did she come to your side, and what about the green silk who used to serve you?" ”

Li Yufen smiled, and then said again: "The queen mother really forgot about jì, Wanwan is my savior, and the queen mother also saw her at the beginning." ”

After being reminded by Li Yufen like this, Jun Qishan finally remembered Lu Yuwan's identity, and suddenly frowned, looked at Lu Yuwan's eyes into scrutiny, and asked slightly dissatisfied: "Is it her...... But how did she end up here? ”

"It was the last time I went to Jin Mingchi when I met Wanwan again, I recognized her at a glance as the person who saved me back then, so I begged my father to let her serve by my side, my father found someone to train her, she is now a first-class palace maid by my side." Li Yufen's face was full of excitement and said happily.

"Oh...... That's a coincidence. Jun Qishan glanced at Lu Yanwan again and said lightly, but her tone was obviously full of suspicion.

"Wanwan, right, this palace also remembers now, you saved the princess, and this palace also rewarded you with a lot of things, I didn't expect you and the princess to be really fateful, that incident has passed for so long, and you can still meet again, and it is in Jinmingchi, it seems that God has arranged it." Jun Qishan looked at Lu Yuwan and said leisurely.

"It is a blessing for slaves and maids to meet Her Royal Highness the princess again." Lu Yanwan didn't say much, she could naturally see that Jun Qishan was suspicious and disliked her, but Li Yan also agreed to leave her, no matter how disliked Jun Qishan was, she couldn't drive her away for no reason.

Li Yufen also seemed to sense that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so she immediately spoke again: "Queen Mother, my father has been busy with court affairs these days, and he hasn't come to see me for a long time, I'm bored, thanks to Wanwan by my side, it won't be so difficult." ”

Jun Qishan withdrew her gaze from Lu Yanwan, looked at Li Yufen kindly and said: "Your father has been busy recently, it is inevitable that he will neglect you, you don't have to take it too seriously, the New Year will be in a few days, and you will be able to see him again at that time, but since Wanwan can help you solve your worries, then the palace should reward her well." ”

"Slaves and maids don't dare to ask for any rewards, this is within the slave's business." Lu Yanwan immediately knelt down and said politely. RS
