299-Masters outside the palace, skillfully arranging chess games
After listening to Concubine Rong's words, Concubine De's heart finally opened up a lot. ββ ε «ββ ε «ββ Readβ β book, 2β²3o" It seems that the cause and effect of this are finally buckled in one place.
However, there was still one last question left, and Concubine De finally had a smile on her face, "Sister Rong, you have said so much, but you still haven't told me, why are you here?" I invited my sister to come, as if I was solemn for my sister's arms. β
As soon as the words were spoken, Concubine Rong became more and more undisguised, "So as soon as I entered the door, I said that if you hadn't closed the door and thanked the guests, and I didn't act cheaply, I would have been here a long time ago." You don't have to be suspicious, I will talk about it, Zuo is just a pitiful nobleman, and he begged me, and I don't want to look at Concubine Hui in vain. β
Wu Yashi let out a sigh of relief, Concubine Rong's honesty made her almost no doubts, and sometimes sharing is the way to get along. "In this way, the Nala family wants to find a glimmer of life from the gap between the two forces through our secret reconciliation with the Malhan family?"
Concubine Rong nodded silently, she didn't pity the Nala family, but as long as she could make Concubine Hui unhappy, she didn't mind being a favor.
Concubine De smiled even more, "But sister, if that's the case, Wu Erdun can explain to Marhan in private, why do you have to go around us in such a big circle." If there are many people who know, is it not to his detriment? β
Concubine Rong said with a smile as if she had heard some big joke, "My sister is really thoughtful. That's where his Woolton shrewdness comes in. He went to have a private affair with Marhan, but what should the nobles do in the palace? He not only wants to ask for a guarantee for the nobles, but also wants to find a way for his family to live, not to mention......" Concubine Rong's eyes flashed, "The eldest brother is not easy to get along with, and the days will be long, how can he not calculate?" β
Concubine De couldn't help but secretly admire in her heart, she only said that Wu Erdun was an honest person, but she didn't expect that she was not inferior to others when she really planned it. "We are just a Chinese person, and we have to bear the safety of the nobles, Wu Erdun is suitable, what about us?"
"The emperor let you suffer grievances for no reason, you took the opportunity to tell the emperor about the grievances of the nobles, Miss Zhaojia, do you think that with our emperor's temper, what will he think? I'm afraid that it will ......" Concubine Rong said it neatly, but when the answer was about to come out, it was really not that she deliberately took care of it, but that she found out coldly that such a simple thing How could Wu Yashi not think of it? It's just that she was waiting for her to jump, so Concubine Rong stopped talking, and a hint of coldness appeared in her smile. "Sister Concubine De, this palace and you are honest with each other, but you are so calculating, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?"
Concubine De was not afraid of Concubine Rong's anger, but just opened her mouth to comfort, "Sister, don't be angry. You've been in such a big circle with me since you entered the door before, didn't I say anything? β
Concubine Rong laughed angrily, and Shaoqing actually laughed out loud.
Concubine De was just playing with her on the side, and after a while, the laughter of the two of them actually spread outside the hall.
A little palace maid hurriedly ran to pass the word to Hanging Toad and Caihui to know, and the two looked at each other and smiled and sent the little palace maid away, instructing the master to call them again if there was a call.
Not long after, Concubine Rong quietly left Yonghe Palace with Caihui, just as she came quietly.
Later, the people in the palace only knew that the emperor went to Yanxi Palace, which he had not set foot in for a long time, but it didn't take long for him to come out. The next day, Concubine De, who was recuperating in Yonghe Palace, opened the palace door, but Concubine Hui, who was fine a few days ago, suddenly caught a cold.
When Marhan was waiting to bring the news to his wife and daughter, Mrs. Marhan and Nian Sheng were stunned.
After looking at each other, it was Mrs. Marhan who reacted first, and hurriedly pulled her master to ask, "Why did the master suddenly talk about these things in the inner palace?" Aren't you afraid of committing a taboo? β
While ordering someone to serve tea, Marhan untied the collar of his court clothes. "What's so taboo about that? But three or two days of hard work, up and down are all talking, I just say, who else will do to me? β
"That'...... So why is that? Mrs. Marhan asked.
Malhan smiled slyly, and only then did he tell them the whole story.
Mrs. Marhan could not help but admire her husband's resourcefulness.
Unexpectedly, Marhan waved his hand, "Madame is really praising the wrong person this time." Where can I get along with such a twisted idea? β
Nian Sheng looked at the look on his Ama face, and after a little thought, a person's name blurted out, "Su Yuebai?" Amma's brain trust is Mr. Su, right? β
"You're a clever guy now." Malhan smiled and nodded. "If you want to say that you also know people and make good use of them, you recommended this Mr. Su. That day, I felt that this matter was tricky, and I didn't have a good way to deal with it for a while, so I thought of this Mr. Su. Originally, he only said to try his skills, but he didn't expect him to have such a delicate mind and a big game of chess. β
Hearing that this matter was really planned by Su Yuebai, Nian Sheng did not have much joy on his face. On the contrary, Mrs. Marhan felt that this Mr. Su was extraordinary, and she was a little slow about him in the past, so she discussed with Lord Marhan that she should be more respectful to Su Yuebai in the future.
Marhan was in a good mood because of a matter on his mind, so he echoed his wife, but seeing that his daughter seemed to be unhappy, he called her and asked, "Niansheng?" What are you thinking? β
Nian Sheng obviously didn't expect that Ama would suddenly have something to ask him, and he was slightly stunned before he hurriedly replied, "No...... Didn't think about anything. β
Marhan knew that what Nian Sheng said was untrue, but he did not embarrass his daughter, but said with earnest care, "It's only ten days before your wedding day, no matter what you think, you will all put it back, and waiting for An Ansheng to come out of the cabinet is the top priority at the moment." Tomorrow, the grandmother in the palace will come to teach, if there is nothing wrong, you can go back and rest early. From tomorrow onwards, you will let go of all things at home. If anyone can't give an account, make it clear only in these few days, and no one will be allowed to disturb you for the last three days. Marhan's last words were addressed to his wife.
"Yes, Amma." "Yes, sir." Mother and daughter should go through together.
Nian Sheng got up and quit, and walked back with the hanging toad silently.
Hanging Toad said a few words to Nian Sheng along the way, but he didn't see his own young lady take care of him, so he couldn't help but raise his voice and asked, "Miss, what do you want?" β
Nian Sheng came back to her senses after a fierce quarrel from the hanging toad, and she glanced at the hanging toad a little sneeringly, "What's wrong?" The voice of the questioner sounded muffled too.
Hanging Toad reached out and was about to stroke Niansheng's forehead without worry, "Miss, are you uncomfortable?" Do you want to see a doctor? There are only a few days left until your good days, and you can't have ......."
Nian Sheng sideways dodged the hanging toad's hand, raised his hand and flicked it on the hanging toad's head, as if he had just woken up, looked at her in surprise and asked, "What are you doing?" β
Hanging Toad was flicked coldly by Niansheng, and hurriedly retracted his hand to rub his head in pain, but when he thought about it wrong, when he looked at his own lady again, he found that Niansheng had completely lost the ignorant look just now, but was no different from usual, which made Hanging Toad almost think that there was something wrong with her own eyes just now.
"Miss, were you a demon just now?" While rubbing his sore head, the toad complained to Niansheng, "The slave has said more than a dozen words to you, but you haven't agreed to a single one. It's easy to answer, and it's the same as sleepwalking. The slave thought you were sick, and said that she was going to call you a doctor, but you got better first. β
Nian Sheng ignored the toad's muttering, "What did you tell me just now?" β
Hanging Toad knew that he couldn't ask anything if he didn't want to say it, so he replied honestly, "The slave maid just said a lot, your wife has already seen the list of clothes for your marriage, and you have added two more and sent them back." The second aunt sent someone over and said that you should have time to go over and talk. The housekeeper said that the new gentleman in the accounting room still wants you to last pass by, and asked if you can see it after dinner? And the eldest lady of the Mailer family asked Mama to come over to say hello. The fifth lady of the Tatara family......"
"Okay, okay, don't talk about it." Nian Sheng only felt a little big after listening to these words. "The dowry is all set by my wife, and I don't have to go back and forth to me. On the second aunt's side, if you ask someone to talk back, just say that I will go over to see her later. Inform the housekeeper, go out of the account room, and ask him to call the newly bought little maid and the newly promoted steward to one place, and I will see him after dinner. As for those who greet and reminisce, you can watch for me yourself. It's just a reward for two hanging money, saying that I also greet their master. If there is a big name, someone who was close to you in the past, or something that has been passed on, you will bother me again. β
As soon as Nian Sheng confessed, the toad only listened carefully, for fear of remembering which sentence would delay the matter, and there was no brain to entangle Nian Sheng's loss of mind just now.
Niansheng picked up a few anxious things in front of her and asked the hanging toad, and after giving her the idea, she simply sent the hanging toad to arrange some things in person, "The affairs of the wife are still for you to go back in person, and it is better for you to go to the housekeeper's place." Let the little girls be cautious and fool the rest. Don't follow me before dinner, we've been busy, and when you ask, maybe you'll go to the second aunt's courtyard to find me. β
Hanging Toad thought that there was indeed something urgent here, so she didn't dare to delay, hurriedly saluted Niansheng, and trotted all the way to the errands she confessed.
The hanging toad was gone, although there were still two little girls left to follow Niansheng, but none of them dared to step forward and talk more, which made Niansheng clear for a moment, and continued to walk towards his small courtyard while distracting.
Nian Sheng didn't know what was wrong with her, but the appearance of the Nara clan coming to the house that day was echoing in her mind over and over again.
