Chapter 20: The Fu Sisters
Fu Jinhuan was staying in the palace and was humming a little song to arrange flowers, and the palace maid came to report, saying that her sister Fu Jinding entered the palace to ask to see.
Fu Jinhuan put down the flower in his hand, thinking that it was really time for Jin Ding to come, I just had good news to tell her, and I thought that the emperor had said that the matter after the establishment should not be mentioned to anyone until it is determined.
"Hurry up and invite my sister in, my sister's, what else to report."
Fu Jinding is only eighteen years old this year, she is the sixth of the sisters of the Fu family, she is not as good as her two sisters, she can marry into the palace to serve the emperor, she married Zhao Kuangyi, the brother of Zhao Kuangyin, the deputy director of the palace.
Zhao Kuangyi is currently only listening to the account of his brother Zhao Kuangyin, who has repeatedly made military exploits and has been promoted all the way, and is now among the important ministers of the imperial court.
And Zhao Kuangyi was probably covered by his brother's light, at least he thought so, because his brother was too powerful, so he couldn't show his talents and couldn't get promoted.
In fact, Zhao Kuangyi is only twenty years old this year, and he has just been weak, and Zhao Kuangyin is thirty-three years old.
Fu Jinding came to the palace today to ask his sister Fu Jinhuan to help blow the pillow wind to the emperor, so that his husband could find an official position in the court.
"The courtiers pay a visit to Mrs. Zheng Guo."
Fu Jinding has done enough courtesy, this is not sloppy, especially today with a request for his sister.
"Sister, please get up, come, we sisters haven't seen each other for a long time, and we have to catch up on the old days today."
Fu Jinhuan got up and pulled up Fu Jinding, and the two sisters sat together holding hands and were very affectionate.
"Look, my sister's face is still so white and tender, unlike my sister and me, who are all fast and yellow."
"Sister, you are a beautiful country, my sister doesn't dare to compare with my sister."
The two sisters complimented each other on their looks, and Fu Jinhuan went to look at the hairpin ornament on her sister's bun.
"Sister, we women, in addition to appearance, this dress can't be sloppy, look at you, this sister I'm going to talk about you, your golden step is obviously not enough, come here, take the pearl hairpin that the emperor just gave to the palace."
Fu Jinding smiled embarrassedly, there is no way, I just want to show that I have to have it, and I have to dare to wear it out, my husband is now just a petty official who is not worth mentioning, she doesn't dare to call herself a noble lady in the capital.
The pearl hairpin handed over by the palace maid, the pearl embedded in it is round and clear, as big as a dragon's eye, and the rune gold ring is very proud in her hand.
"Look, sister, we women have to wear such jewelry if we want to wear it, and this is what the emperor gave me yesterday."
Sister Dare just wanted to show off, and didn't mean to give it to me, but fortunately I wasn't in a hurry to thank you, otherwise it would have been even more embarrassing.
"Yes, my sister is noble, and only such a hairpin ornament is worthy of my sister's dignified and elegant."
"My sister is really good at talking, I'll tell you, huh...... Stand down, and I'll talk to my sister about myself. ”
The eunuch and the palace maid all retreated, Fu Jinhuan couldn't suppress his excitement anymore, took Fu Jinding's hand and said:
"Sister, let me tell you, you must not tell others, you swear now, if you say, you will not live to be twenty."
Fu Jin Dingxin said, as for it, what a big secret, I still want my sister to swear so badly, but I don't dare to be stubborn, I raised my hand and sweared:
"I swear by Fu Jinding that every word my sister told me today, if half a word is leaked, I will not live more than twenty Fu Jinding."
"Sister told you, the emperor has promised my sister, and in the first month, my sister will be canonized as the queen."
When Fu Jinhuan said this, his eyes turned into crescents of laughter, and he covered his small mouth full of color.
"Oh, that courtier is going to congratulate my sister in advance, ah, no, congratulations to the queen......"
Fu Jin got up in fright and was about to worship, but in his heart, he was like a mixed taste, they were all sisters of the Fu family, why didn't he have this good life.
"Hurry up, what are you doing so loudly, I'm afraid that people outside won't hear it, I would have known that I wouldn't tell you."
Fu Jinhuan immediately changed his face and glared at him, he really had the majesty of the queen.
"Well, courtier...... The courtiers knew they were wrong. ”
"Get up, this palace is a little tired, you step down, remember, don't talk about today's words to others again."
Before he could say anything about asking Fu Jinhuan for help, he was kicked out by Fu Jinhuan, Fu Jinding was very frustrated, my sister is about to become the queen, so she doesn't want to see our sisters?
drove away Fu Jinding, Fu Jinhuan regretted it a little, he really shouldn't get carried away, the emperor told him, don't say it, this ......
"Chase Fu Jinding back to the palace......"
Fu Jinding didn't go far, and was called back by the little eunuch, Fu Jinhuan still retreated from everyone, standing there very majestic, and the golden step on his head shook slightly.
"Courtiers......
"Don't say it, this palace called you back, I want to tell you a few more words, our sister's affection, this palace is always in mind, the eldest sister left early, but the eldest sister said to the palace before leaving, the palace dare not forget a word, without the eldest sister, there will be no palace today's status, Jin Ding you are the eldest sister and the palace's favorite little sister, what the palace told you just now is very important, if you dare to say half a word, don't blame the palace for being ruthless, and no longer recognize you as a sister."
Fu Jinding trembled and kowtowed to Fu Jinhuan: "The courtiers don't dare, please ask Mrs. Zheng Guo to believe the courtiers no matter what." ”
Fu Jinhuan's face was slightly gloomy, he walked to Fu Jinding's side and pulled her up, looked at her sister with pear blossoms and rain, and sighed again and said:
"The second sister failed to give birth to the emperor, and her status in this palace is also precarious, and by the emperor's grace, she handed over the four princes' Zongxun to her sister to raise, which is also the blood of the eldest sister, the glory and wealth of our Fu family in the future are all in Xiao Zongxun alone, my sister has no one to trust in the deep palace, and the most trusted is the people of our Fu family."
"Sister, sister knows, sister will often come to the palace to visit my sister, talk to my sister, if my sister needs my sister to do something outside the palace, my sister will do her best for my sister."
"Jin Ding's purpose for you to enter the palace, my sister knows that once my sister ascends to the back position, if she doesn't take care of her own family, who else can she take care of, sister, you can rest assured, we have a deep sisterhood, my sister will naturally be the first to think of you, by the way, you go back to the house after leaving the palace, tell your father, say that your daughter misses her father, and wants to invite her father into the palace to talk."
Fu Jinding understood, and he was also very moved in his heart, the second sister's words were also true, and she was too careful.
Fu Jinhuan watched Fu Jinding's mood stabilize, and the two sisters chatted for a while, and then personally sent her away.
Fu Jinding left the palace and went directly to the Wei Wangfu to meet his father.
"Jin Ding, your second sister specially asked you to send a message to invite your father into the palace to talk, but what happened in the palace?"
