Chapter Twenty-Nine: Recycling Grains
Lin Yuqing pursed his lips and glared at Ah Lang dissatisfied.
"Yes, you rely on the emperor for dinner, of course you have to say good things about him. Since ancient times, emperors have been so affectionate, even if the emperor is a Ming monarch today, but there are so many women who fight for such a man, and some of them have never seen the emperor from the time they entered the palace to the time they died, isn't this a waste of people! ”
Lin Yuqing hated every time he thought that a man had wasted the youth of so many beautiful women. A woman should be like a flower, spoiled by a man who loves herself, in order to reflect the beauty of a woman. However, as the emperor, there will never be such a situation.
Ah Lang looked at Lin Yuqing gently, with a smile still on the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that you have a prejudice against the current emperor. If you let the emperor know that there is a person like you who says bad things about the emperor behind your back, he will definitely slap you. ”
Lin Yuqing smiled disapprovingly, and said heartlessly: "These words are heard by you and me, as long as you don't say it, how can it reach the ears of the emperor." ”
"Okay, don't worry, I won't say it. You're tired, let's sleep a little longer. ”
Ah Lang tucked the horns well, and looked at Lin Yuqing blinking all the time, looking at himself, and smiled.
"What's wrong? Can't sleep? ”
Lin Yuqing shook his head, then nodded again, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "You, are very good to me." Isn't it, you like me? However, if I am not talented, if I am colorless, I will not think that you like me, after all, you don't even want me to see your true appearance, but your every move has to make me doubt. ”
When Alang heard this, his body stiffened, as if he didn't know how to answer.
At the end, he smiled softly and said: "What do you like or dislike, we are all in the palace, we can't help ourselves, we can be friends now, I think it's good." Don't overthink it, go to bed quickly. ”
Lin Yuqing still wanted to ask, but he was worried that if he talked too much, the two of them would be very embarrassed to get along in the future. If this Alang only cares about himself as a friend, then what he said just now has already embarrassed him, and if he continues to talk about it, I am afraid that he will not have the opportunity to meet in the future.
She forced herself to close her eyes, and then fell asleep thinking about it.
Her illness is actually mainly due to the fact that after giving birth, she did not have a good rest, and tried her best to take care of the old and the young in the cold palace, and she also fell into the lake to make matters worse, so it is strange that she is not sick.
And what made her feel even more strange was that the entire Zhanghua Palace became quiet in her eyes. Now, the flowers and grains sachet has not been done yet, and it stands to reason that it shouldn't be so quiet.
"Yo, Miss Shen Xiu, are you awake, are you okay with your rest yesterday?"
As soon as the door opened, an elderly grandmother walked in from the outside, although there was a smile on her face, but Lin Yuqing couldn't see the slightest smile on her face. She even felt that this person was like a character like Mama Rong.
Lin Yuqing swallowed nervously and spit, and then said with a forced smile: "I'm much better, thank you for your concern." ”
Mama asked the little palace maid who followed behind to put away the toiletries in her hands.
"The girl said this, but the old slave didn't dare to be it! Concubine Yu specially ordered, no matter what, your illness must get better as soon as possible, so we can only take care of it. ”
This grandmother is very shrewd at first glance, and she doesn't say anything inappropriate. Lin Yuqing could only smile gratefully.
The grandmother continued: "However, Miss Yulan also said that whether Concubine Yu can make a splash at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet depends on the girl." If the girl feels better, tell us what to do next when we become slaves. Otherwise, on the day of the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, Concubine Yu will not be able to get a congratulatory gift, so it will be ......"
Mama's words were not finished, but Lin Yu knew what she meant early in the morning, and hurriedly said: "The slave maid was originally the slave maid of Concubine Yu, and this time it was also Concubine Yu's love, so the slave maid was responsible for the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, and the slave maid must try her best to do a good job, and she will never dare to slack off." ”
"Well, hurry up and freshen up! After breakfast, you can take the medicine. Mama said with a smile.
Lin Yuqing supported his body and finally finished freshening up. I ate a little more breakfast, and then went to the preparation room. But this time, she is not like before, she is a coolie, she has to do everything by herself, she just needs to sit on the side and be an overseer.
It is said that there is a lot of power in people, and now in this case, it is really true. These palace maids and eunuchs quickly gathered hundreds of flowers, and some of the rare flowers were specially ordered by Concubine Yu.
Crack the petals, squeeze out the juice, then dry them into a powder and mix them together.
The next step is to select the grains that are plump.
Concubine Yu ordered someone to get more than a dozen bags of grains, but in these dozen bags, five hundred full grains were found, which was really a bit exciting.
But what should be done with the leftover grain? Lin Yuqing looked at these people, but he chose them very carefully, and the five hundred grains were quickly selected.
"Miss Shen Xiu, five hundred grains have been chosen."
The five palace maids, each holding a hundred grains in their hands, stood in front of Lin Yuqing in unison.
At the beginning, Lin Yuqing was still thinking hard about the remaining grains, and it wasn't until the five of them said the second time that she came back to her senses.
"Oh, have you chosen? It's good to choose. That, well, the rest of it, so let's put it here first, and maybe there's somewhere to use it. ”
The sachet has not yet been embroidered, and the juice has not been dried, so Lin Yuqing asked people to put the grains in the juice of different colored petals and dry them together. In this way, the grain is not only stained with the aroma of flower petals, but also takes on different colors, which makes it look even more pleasant.
Before Lin Yuqing's illness was not cured, Concubine Yu let her live in Zhanghua Palace. Although there is also an old mother and two maids waiting, Lin Yuqing always feels awkward. She thought that she was just a little palace maid, but she was served by someone who might be higher than herself. This kind of thing, if you pursue it, you can't say it clearly. If you offend Concubine Yu one day, this is the best excuse to kill yourself.
Therefore, she could only pretend to be sick, and then work with the people of Zhanghua Palace, and work together. Concubine Yu didn't say anything to let her go back, she could only force herself to stay here.
"Hey, you're just in time. Can you do me a favor. ”
On the fourth day of Lin Yuqing's stay in Zhanghua Palace, Ah Lang appeared again.
There is no moon tonight, the clouds in the sky are still gathering, and a heavy rain is coming.
However, in the faint light, Lin Yuqing could still see that the person leaning on the window was him.
