Chapter 8: Concubine Lady's Birthday

The eldest prince came out suddenly, not a few days away from Concubine Shu's birthday, this year is her twentieth birthday, even if it is a whole year, the original ceremony of promotion is also to be held together on that day, it is said that it is also going to be a big deal, now this happened, Concubine Shu is not thinking about birthday, but this gift is not sent to everyone It will be difficult, in this harem, the number of concubines is high, and they are deeply favored by the emperor, this is sent, people just have no son, you just send things, it is not appropriate, this is not sent, it is not in line with the rules of the palace, and it is not suitable, It's really a dilemma.

On Concubine Shu's birthday, it was the third day of the year, the sun was hot, Zhi Xing held an oil-paper umbrella and walked behind, Zhi Tao played a fan on the side, Mo Ying was so hot that she didn't even have the mood to complain, her position was too low, she could only go out by walking, and on the day she was released from the forbidden room, she still got the emperor's permission, so she had the soft sedan chair carried by the two people.

This is a lot of people, and they are all idle, you said that people just died of their sons, you have to study whether to give people birthday gifts, are people in the mood to accept them? Besides, people are concubines, why don't you have it, there is no money for a background and identity like Mo Ying, so you can only send a handicraft, it is estimated that people can't even look down on rewarding people, so why bother?

When Mo Ying arrived at Li Xiang Palace, there were already five people waiting, Mo Ying couldn't tell who they were, so she had to salute as soon as she entered the door, "I've seen all sisters!" ”

Mo Ying saw that everyone stood up and returned the salute, thinking that these people should be about the same position as her, and the one sitting on the top was a person in purple clothes, so she quickly stood up and greeted a few steps, and said with a smile: "Sister Mo is here, I heard that Sister Mo has not been in good health recently, and my sister doesn't dare to disturb, if I don't have something important today, I really don't dare to work my sister." ”

"My sister is serious." Mo Ying thought that this was Chu Cairen, and she was also the initiator of this meeting, I heard that when the emperor was still the prince, she was a concubine, although she is only a talented person now, but she is an old man, and everyone will give her some face.

As soon as Mo Ying sat down, she felt that all eyes were on her, and Mo Ying couldn't tell who was who, so she had to sit and smirk.

"Sister Mo, you smile so beautifully." The girl sitting on the left side of Mo Ying, with a round face, smiled and her eyes were crooked, which was very cute.

Hearing her say this, Mo Ying was embarrassed, it turned out that the original owner didn't like to laugh!

"It's not, this sister is worthy of being the first beauty, and she even likes me when she laughs, let alone the emperor!" Sitting opposite Mo Ying, a man in yellow clothes, with a somewhat long face, although this is a praise for her, it is very sour.

Mo Ying disagreed, and said: "I haven't seen the sisters for a long time, and Mo Ying is very happy in her heart. ”

"It's not, our sisters should get together more, now there are a few of us in the harem, I have many sisters in my family since I was a child, when I was in the palace, I was the only one, but I was bored, or now in the palace, there are so many sisters with me, I am much happier in my heart!"

Listening to this, Mo Ying was disgusted, Gong Douwen had seen a lot, and her sisters and sisters also felt disgusted, but now when she heard Chu Cairen say this, she felt disgusted, and then looked at the expressions of the other four people, and they all laughed unexpectedly, if you don't say it, others also know that you are the emperor's first woman, besides, you are only a talented person now, what is the use of the first one?

Mo Ying felt that it was very hypocritical to talk about this day, fortunately, there are not many concubines in the palace now, Mo Ying has already inquired a lot in private, and today I will listen to their words and deeds, but I can also tell the difference, the girl sitting on her left is Ye Yunu, sitting opposite her in yellow clothes, it is Liu Cainu, Yin Baolin in blue clothes, and one in cyan is Zhang Cairen, she is not the lowest rank, Cai Nu, the royal maid is not as good as her, Mo Ying's heart is very unproductive.

When Mo Ying was about to change the third cup of tea, Yun Jieyu arrived, followed by a person wearing crescent moon white clothes, it should be Shangguan Baolin that Zhi Tao said before.

"Sister Yun and Sister Shangguan are here, come here."

Yun Jieyu has the highest position, so naturally she can't sit with them, so Chu Cairen pulled Yun Jieyu to sit on the main seat together.

"I'm bothering all my sisters to come over today, it's also for the birthday of Concubine Niangniang, I don't know what my sisters think?" Everyone came, and Chu Cairen asked straight to the point.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke. Hehe, everyone's position is not high, one of you Jieyu and an old man don't express their opinions, do others dare to say it?

The room was quiet in an instant, and Mo Ying wondered in her heart, whether she should pretend to be dizzy or something, just as she was studying what posture to use, Yun Jieyu spoke: "My sisters entered the palace late, I can't compare to Sister Chu to understand the holy will, I don't know how Sister Chu thinks about it?" ”

Chu Cairen covered his mouth and smiled, with smugness between his eyebrows, "This lady concubine has a good personality, and the matter of the eldest prince is really sad," he said, picked up the handkerchief again, and wiped the corners of his eyes, "But this child is very filial, and he definitely doesn't want his mother to be sad for him, let's give some gifts according to our hearts, one is to comfort the concubine, and the other is also the heart of our sisters, what do the sisters think?" ”

With this tone, everyone caters to them, they are just here to fill in the faΓ§ade, how can they really pay attention, a person is fine.

Shangguan Baolin, who arrived at the end, first praised it, and then said: "Everyone's intentions are good, but after all, the lady concubine is not happy, and the emperor is often by her side, so many of us go, in case it disturbs the purity of the mother, even if the lady concubine is benevolent, the emperor will be unhappy, but it is self-defeating, not good, why don't you take Sister Lao Chu and visit on behalf of the sisters?" It's everyone's mind. ”

"This ......" Chu Cairen's face was embarrassed, and his eyes glanced at Yun Jieyu with a vague look.

"Sister Shangguan is right, she did make a lot of trouble when she went, Sister Chu is the most prestigious and the most suitable candidate, but this day is very big, and I am afraid that my sister will be tired and make the emperor feel distressed!" Yun Jieyu pretended to be embarrassed.

"Hey, look at what my sister said, since my sisters think so highly of me, I should go on this trip!" Chu Cairen patted Yun Jieyu's hand and was very happy.

When it will disperse, it is the time when the sun is the most poisonous, Mo Ying ordered the apricot, the meal can be taken later, the water must be beaten first, in these dog days, do not take a bath twice a day, it is really unbearable.

As soon as she walked out of the door of Li Xiang Palace, Yun Jieyu called Mo Ying, "I see that my sister's complexion is still not very good, but her illness has not healed?" β€œ

"Xie Yunjieyu is worried." Mo Ying blessed her body and replied, "It's just that the sun is a little big, and there is some heat, so it won't get in the way." ”

"I just got a snow lotus a few days ago, it's best to make up for my sister, can my sister take it with me if she has time?"

Mo Ying rolled her eyes in her heart, are you informing or asking, can I say no?

"It's okay to be fine, it's just that Sister Chu is going to see Concubine Shuniang later, and my sister has to send a gift, why don't you do it another day?"

She hasn't figured it out yet, and she really doesn't want to have contact with Yun Jieyu.

"Seeing that my sister has been unwell recently, my sister has already prepared a gift for my sister, Manshuang, this matter was handed over to you, have you done it?" Yun Jieyu asked.

"Back to Niangniang, it's all ready, the previous old man asked someone to go to the south to find a Xiangyun brocade for the little master, this brocade is suitable for summer wear, the clothes are fragrant and not soaked in sweat, and the color is the blue color that the lady concubine likes to do, just leave it for Mo Baolin to make a birthday gift." Manshuang took a step forward and replied.

"You're good at picking things." Yun Jieyu nodded Man Shuang's head, turned her face to Mo Ying and said, "Is this gift sister satisfied?" ”

"Satisfied, satisfied." Mo Ying's depressed teeth itched, but she still had to pretend to be very happy.
