Chapter 171: Blessings
East Palace
Zhu Zijun, who was accompanying Concubine Yang to dinner, was a little surprised when he heard his subordinates report that Dexin County was mainly embroidering the dowry.
Zhu Zijun put down the silver chopsticks in his hand, "Aifei, there are some things that need to be dealt with now." β
Yang Jiarong put down her chopsticks and slowly stood up with the help of Qingya, the personal palace maid beside her, "Your Highness, the small kitchen here of the concubine made some truffle cakes that the queen mother loves to eat today, and I bother His Royal Highness the prince to send some to the queen mother." β
Hearing this, a thought flashed in Zhu Zijun's eyes, the six palaces and twenty-four divisions are all controlled by the queen mother, and it is better to go and see his mother than to report such a small matter to his father.
"Concubine Ai, you can rest well, and come when you go alone."
Yang Jiarong smiled and sent Zhu Zijun away, turned around, and her eyes were cold. 'If you go alone, you will come', what a beautiful lie.
Looking at the back of the strange little eunuch, the resentment in Qingya's heart was burning.
"Niangniang, why is it that every time the prince comes to you for dinner, something is invited away, according to the slave maid, that one is deliberate."
"Master, should we invite the concubine to ......" Xiao Yuanzi looked at the master with a high belly, and wondered whether to give the other party a bitter taste.
"No need, this concubine must always learn to face the bitter fruits of her choice and learn to grow up by herself." Yang Jiarong smiled sadly.
"I really don't understand what that person can compare with you, master." Qingya felt that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was very blind, but he could only bury it in his stomach.
"Qingya, be cautious. I don't want you to be caught by others like Aunt Yang and forced to leave this concubine. β
Yang Jiarong slowly came to the table and sat down, stroked her bulging belly, and worked hard to eat the food on the table.
What if you have no fear, what if you dominate the prince all day long? If you are blessed, it's good if your belly can be big, but it's not big, hum! It is the target of all.
Ben Fei lies and waits to win!
Even if this concubine is not favored in the future, even if she is only a daughter born in this womb, with the momentum of my Yang family, she does not need any drilling camp in this life, and she can be worry-free.
Man, the heart is given to someone else's man, and the concubine should not continue to disturb herself.
Half an hour later, I was pleasantly surprised to see Zhu Zijun, Queen Sun and Shiitake who came in in a hurry.
"Emperor, can you have dinner?"
"The emperor greets the queen mother. Queen Mother, the emperor had dinner at Concubine Yang's place. No, I saw that Concubine Yang's small kitchen made your favorite truffle cake, and specially sent some to the queen mother. β
Shiitake happily took the food box in Xiao Dezi's hand and walked towards the outside of the hall, ready to go down to serve it in person. When Xiao Dezi saw it, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly took the food box from the mushroom and followed him out of the palace gate.
"Xiao Dezi, how is Xiao Xiangzi?"
"Back to my aunt, Grandpa Xiang misses you and the queen very much, but now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is more and more useful for many things."
"That's good." Shiitake nodded in satisfaction.
In the main hall, the mother and son sat together and chatted enthusiastically, talking about the fact that Concubine Hang of the Night King's Mansion pulled the lord of Dexin County to get drunk and injured, Zhu Zijun was very surprised: the queen mother was very interested, and there was no reprimand in her words.
"The children of small families are the skins."
"Yes, I was injured yesterday, and today my little brother and sister led the county lord of Dexin, pulled Mrs. Hang around the street, bought a lot of cloth and cotton, and I heard that it was to embroider a dowry for the lord of Dexin and make clothes for the four seasons."
"The clothes made by relatives are always a concern and blessing, which warms people's heartsββγ The county lord of Dexin married Jin Guo far away, which is also an extra blessing unintentionally from our Great Xia, and the palace will send people to join in the excitement tomorrow with the six divisions. β
Zhu Zijun was secretly frightened, he didn't expect the queen mother to be in such a good mood when she talked about this Concubine Hang. The words are so relaxed and witty!
Why is this little brother and sister so good?
In the Night King's Mansion, I often forgot to say hello to Concubine Wu and the princess, but no one blamed her for incomplete etiquette rules.
It would be great if my pearl also had such a blessing and good karma.
"Queen Mother, Zhu'er prepared some meals for Xiao Hei, and the emperor accompanied her to send them to Xiao Hei."
Empress Sun smiled slightly, Xiao Hei, that earth dog, and the playmate in childhood, how similar.
This one has a heart!
Even the regrets of this palace can be heard clearly, what a caring person!
"Then the queen mother will let the mushrooms make a few side dishes that the emperor loves to eat!"
"Yes, Queen Mother." Zhu Zijun's joy was beyond words, and the enthusiasm between the mother and son made the mushrooms and Xiao Dezi waiting outside the hall happy.
Looking at the two happy masters, the palace maids in the hall were all beaming, as if they were celebrating a festival.
After the mushrooms brought the truffle cake, the prince drank another cup of tea before striding away from Ciqing Palace.
"Niangniang, you want to open it."
Empress Sun shook her head, "Know yourself and know your opponent." β
"Hey, look at this posture, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be going to Concubine Tang again, there is a beautiful woman in the first palace vacant."
"The old Zhu family is actually infatuated. Bengong just doesn't want this kid to find out one day that he is full of infatuation with the wrong person. β
Empress Sun stood behind the palace gate supported by mushrooms, watching Xiao Dezi's palace lamp gradually disappear from sight.
The white horse passed through the gap, and time slipped quietly through Bai Lu's fingers with a needle, and half a month passed in a blink of an eye.
In the past half month, in addition to occasionally eating in the yard, Bai Lu has been constantly drawing, embroidering, making clothes, and sewing quilts.
In the past half a month, Jin Buhua seemed to have made an appointment with Bai Lu, leaving his beloved royal rice to Bai Lu during the day, and living in Hangzhou Mansion at night.
And Zhu Ziyu, who has been placed in Lanxiang Garden every inch for half a month, has given Xiangli enough face and favor. But he also asked Xiao Fanzi to send the forgotten white parrot and diving Xiaojin in Chaolu Courtyard to Hangzhou Mansion on the night when Bailu was shopping.
On this day, Bai Lu was cutting the finest fur sent by Jin Buhua as always, and heard a cry of surprise outside.
"Xiao Lizi, my second brother is running this way, you go and take a look."
Xiao Lizi hurriedly put down the abacus and account book in his hand and ran out, and saw the second master of the Hang family who was rushing towards him, and his face was happy.
"Sisterββ, daddy is here." Hang Yunshan shouted at Bai Lu's room.
Xiao Lizi is happy in his heart, this Hang family, except for Mrs. Hang, be shrewd, train well, and be an old lady.
The rest of the people still can't change the habits of the small people in the past. But it's okay this way, the master lives happily and easily, and he has more and more a sense of belonging.
"Daddy is here?" A hint of joy flashed in Bai Lu's eyes, and he recalled in his mind the middle-aged man who was very strong and dark, and the silver ticket handed over by the rough big hand.
"Senior sister, let's go, let's go to the front hall to have a look."
Yu Mi smiled, still elegantly lying on the couch eating grapes, "Little junior sister, foreign officials, you can't enter Beijing without a call." β
"Oh!" Bai Lu sniffed, how could she forget this stubble, "Okay, then we can only wait for lunch." Lan Xi, you go and tell the second brother, I know. β
Lan Xi put down the work in his hand and walked outside.
"Second master, the master knows that Master Hang has returned to Beijing, and said that he will wait for the master to come back from the palace to have dinner together."
"Oh, hey, it turns out that my father is going to enter the palace to face the saint!" When Hang Yunshui heard this, he jumped up in shock, and ran away in a hurry, ready to tell his mother and prepare for his father.
"Oh, hey, second master, second master-"
A rough sound sounded in the courtyard, as if the floodgates of water control had been opened, and there was a pop in an instant.
Even Yumi was choked by the grapes for a while, "Little junior sister, your parrot is really amazing, a must-have product for the daughter of the deep palaceββ"
"Senior sister, if you like it, you can take it to the grassland." Bai Lu was cutting the fur, decent, and didn't dare to use any effort.
The room was full of people, except for Yumi and Bai Lu, who were sweating wildly. God, if this parrot is given away by its master, it is estimated that all the people who serve in the courtyard will have to shed their skin.
"It's okay, I just don't know if Huahua likes it or not."
Hearing this, Xiao Lizi and Xiao Kaizi had weak legs and knelt down instantly.
