210 - Through the minds of nobles
"This kid not only looks good, but also has good rules, but sometimes he is stubborn, or he can't hurt himself first without doing anything." Concubine De heard Huanchun say last night that when the bell changed Niansheng's clothes, she saw the bruises on Niansheng's wrists, and she knew what was going on without asking. Since Concubine Hui asked the nobles to take a look, she simply let her take a closer look. "Niansheng, the tea of the nobleman is cold."
Nian Sheng answered, took the tea cup handed over by the bell, and replaced the tea on the high table next to the nobleman. This raised his hand, stretched out his hand again, and delivered it, and the unnatural color on his wrist leaked out blindly.
Seeing it in the eyes, the nobles couldn't help but be secretly frightened, and secretly recited the Buddha, thinking to themselves what kind of sin this Concubine Hui had done, could this be what she really let herself see?
Without waiting for the nobles to think about it, Concubine De said again: "Fortunately, Niansheng is a child who knows forbearance and knows the general situation, knows what to say and what not to say, and does not let some things be spread out, and may not let others say what they say." ”
Concubine De's big string of words is like a noble person, but she still remembers it to the death, in order to go back and have something to say back to Concubine Hui.
Niansheng looked at Concubine De, and after getting her nod and acquiescence, he smiled and said: "I heard that the nobles are familiar with Buddhism, and their mothers are also worshipping Buddha at home, and the courtiers will occasionally accompany their mothers to chant sutras and add incense." I don't know what scriptures the nobles often recite in the palace, they may give guidance and guidance, and let Niansheng go back and talk to Eniang, lest the mother always feel that Niansheng is uncertain and unlawful. ”
Although the noble man shirked, "Miss Zhaojia is polite. This little master is just doing nothing all day long, chanting at ease. Where can I afford to ask for advice. But he gradually opened the conversation, maybe after all, he was talking about what the nobles were good at, and after some eloquent talking, not only did he feel that he had benefited a lot, but even Concubine De couldn't help but look at the nobles differently.
"I didn't expect my sister to speak little on weekdays, but when it comes to Buddhism, it seems like a different person. In the future, my sister will often come to the palace to sit in the Yonghe Palace, so that the palace can ask for advice. Concubine De exclaimed.
The nobleman stood up and saluted, and said with a slight smile, "Niang Niang praised it." The concubine is just asking for peace of mind. ”
Concubine De was polite with the nobleman for a while, and allowed her half a cup of tea before ordering tea again.
Tong Guiren understood that this was Concubine De to send off a guest, and after a few hesitations, he thought that the next time he had the opportunity to see Concubine De like this, he didn't know when it would be, and he didn't care that the voice was coming, or he still said what was in his heart. "Concubine De Niangniang, the concubine has a reluctant request, I hope Niangniang can help you take a closer look."
When Concubine De heard this, she was a little confused for a while, but she still smiled kindly, "The noble person is polite, you might as well say anything directly." If this palace can help, it will definitely not shirk. ”
Tong Guiren glanced at Nian Sheng with a little embarrassment, and really worked hard before he could be regarded as saying the words. "The lintel of the concubine's house is not high, and the concubine's Ama is not very grown, these ladies know it, so they ......"
Concubine De raised her eyebrows slightly, just thinking that the nobleman wanted to follow her son's path and find an errand for Ama in her family. This is not a difficult matter, but because of Yinzhen's temperament, Concubine De does not plan to touch this nail. It's his brother-in-law Tong Guowei, who may be able to help a little.
Concubine De summed it up and chose Tong Guowei's side before she spoke: "The nobleman's mind is understood by the palace, if you want to talk about it, no matter how bad Ling Zun is, he will return the emperor's relatives and relatives, and there is no reason why his own family will not help his own family." The younger sister of the Japanese palace entered the palace to ask for peace, and the palace asked her to bring a letter to Lord Tong, and it was not difficult to give Ling Zunmou some errands. ”
The nobleman was stunned for a while, but he still thanked Concubine De, "Thank you for your grace." The concubine thanked her mother for Ama first. However, what the concubine asked for was not her own Amma's business. ”
This time it was Concubine De's turn to be stunned, in this moment of kung fu, Concubine De's opinion of the noble person in front of her has really changed several times, obviously she is a very honest person, how can she still learn to get off the donkey? But after all, it was said by himself, and it was not easy to regret it, so he had to ask patiently with tears and laughter: "What does the noble man want?" ”
"The concubine has a younger brother in the family, and the younger brother has a son and a daughter under his knees. The concubine has been in the palace for so many years, and the niece of the concubine is already at the age of marriage. And...... And she is among the show girls in this year's draft. Without saying a few words, Tong Guiren bit his lower lip, not knowing how to say the following words.
Concubine De thought that she had finished speaking, and knew in her heart that even if she was a small family, she was not willing to send her daughter into the palace to serve others. What's more, like a noble person, there is already an aunt in the family who is not favored in the palace, and it is not interesting to bring in another child. "It's not difficult, the noble man said his niece's name and age, Huanchun wrote it down, and when the time comes, it's time to make a point in advance, and it's not impossible to put up a sign earlier."
"The concubine hopes that the child will keep the sign when the time comes." Tong Guiren hurriedly stopped Concubine De's words and explained.
"What?" Concubine De's face froze, and she secretly wondered why she didn't see that the nobles still had such thoughts on weekdays?
"Don't get me wrong. The concubine was in a hurry to say that she was reckless. Although the noble man is quiet and evasive, he is also a transparent person, and immediately understood Concubine De's misunderstanding, and eagerly explained: "Concubine...... The concubine and her family all thought that the child could take the opportunity of the draft to point out a better marriage. ”
Concubine De finally breathed a sigh of relief, and it turned out that she was worried about the marriage.
When Nian Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but praise this noble man for his good calculations.
When the flag woman reaches the age, she has to wait for the draft, and unless she is left with a brand, she is not allowed to marry without permission. If you can take advantage of such an opportunity to get a noble family, it is indeed a great good thing. It is far better than entering the palace as a slave or marrying those who also have a low lintel.
Concubine De also understood the meaning of the nobles, but according to the lintel of the mother's house of the nobles, some families were afraid that they would not be able to climb high, so she asked tentatively: "This is also a good idea, but if it is a high-ranking family, I am afraid that the girl who may not love us may not be very interesting, and it is not interesting to marry a side room." What if the step-room fills the house? I don't know if it will ...... "After all, other people's children are also girls' families, and some things should be clarified first."
"It's true. The concubine already has a candidate in her heart, I don't know if the mother will allow it? "Tonggui people are here for this purpose, so naturally they will not change their words easily.
"Oh?" Concubine De really didn't expect that the nobles not only had a good stomach, but also had candidates. "Then I don't know which young master and son are responsible for the noble man's blue eyes?" Concubine De asked with a smile, she didn't like to be led by the nose, and now she was obviously stepping into the cloth of the nobleman.
Tong Guiren couldn't help but look at Nian Sheng, who had already stood back beside Concubine De, again.
Nian Sheng's heart tightened, and he already had a faint bad premonition.
Concubine De glanced at Nian Sheng with the gaze of the noble man, and was quite surprised in her heart, and then smiled and said, "Didn't the noble man fall in love with the little young master of Lord Marhan's family?" That's still a child, I'm afraid I'm in a hurry, right? ”
"The concubine wants to ask the emperor and Niangniang to marry the concubine's niece to the thirteenth elder brother." As he spoke, he knelt on the ground.
Nian Sheng gritted the root of his teeth, and finally didn't scream. It turned out that this noble man had been going around for so long, and he was actually thinking about stuffing her niece into Yinxiang's mansion. No wonder from the beginning, she looked at herself strangely, obviously she didn't know someone at all, but there was always a little apology and determination in her eyes. At the moment when the answer was revealed, Nian Sheng finally understood.
"What?" According to Concubine De's position, she didn't need to worry as much as Niansheng, she didn't hide her surprise, and asked directly: "Is the noble person Tong telling a joke?" ”
Since the noble man has already said the words, there is no reason to scruple and twist it anymore, and he said stubbornly: "Back to Concubine De's words, the concubine is serious in everything she says. Ask the mother to be fulfilled. ”
Concubine De confirmed the mind of the nobleman, glanced at the thoughts of the nobleman with her fists clenched and stared straight at the nobleman, and then said in a deep voice: "Nobleman, you get up first." ”
"The concubine begs the mother to be fulfilled." The nobleman not only refused to get up, but knelt more and more upright.
Concubine De waved her hand and motioned for Huan Chun to go over and help the nobleman up.
"What the noble person asks for, I'm afraid that this palace can't help if he wants to." Concubine De's eyes were already cold, "Don't you know?" Not long ago, the emperor just assigned the thirteenth elder brother to marry the two side Fujin of the Zhaojia clan and the Fucha clan, is the niece of the noble man going to the position of the thirteenth Fujin? ”
"Mother's ......"
"If that's the case, then the palace will advise the nobles now, and let's break this thought. The thirteenth elder brother's concubine Fujin, the emperor already has a candidate in his heart, and others are afraid that they will not be able to shake it. Concubine De didn't let the nobleman speak, so she directly blocked her back.
When the nobleman heard this, he became more and more frightened, "Niangniang misunderstood." The concubines did not dare to be delusional. ”
"But you've thought about it." Concubine De knew the emperor's thoughts, and she had been asked to stop a Fucha clan who coveted the position of the thirteenth elder brother's Fujin, wouldn't it be even more difficult if there was another Nara clan before Nian Sheng was canonized? So she wouldn't allow such a thing to happen anyway.
"There are no concubines." Tong Guiren's rare insistence unexpectedly quarreled with Concubine De. "What the concubine asks for for her niece is not even the position of side blessing, as long as she can stay with the thirteenth elder brother as Gege, it is already a blessing for that child, otherwise even if it is a concubine, it is good to enter the thirteenth elder brother's mansion as a maid."
