209-Concubine Hui commanded
Although Nian Sheng had never seen this nobleman, as soon as he followed Concubine De Niangniang into the side hall, he recognized the person at a glance.
It's not because the nobles have the position of masters, and the color of their clothes is different from the palace maids, but because of the unique demeanor of the nobles. Probably because of his belief in Buddhism, although this noble man is a little old and not very beautiful, he has a sense of serenity and tranquility between his eyebrows and eyes, but he is neither humble nor arrogant, which is unforgettable at first sight.
According to what Concubine De said when she had breakfast just now, at this time, the nobles who have always had little contact with everyone in the palace suddenly visited Yonghe Palace, and I am afraid that nine times out of ten they will be inseparable from the main seat in her palace, Concubine Hui. But how could such an unearthly person be at the mercy of Concubine Hui? Nian Sheng couldn't help but feel strange in his heart.
While thinking about it, Concubine De Niangniang had already ascended to the seat in the side hall, and received the gift of the nobleman with a smile, "The nobleman is invited to get up quickly." "As he spoke, he instructed the left and right seats to watch the tea." The nobles have always lived in a simple place, devout to worship the Buddha, and when I suddenly listened to the little eunuch back and forth last night, the palace was still thinking that I had heard it for a while. This is not a very sleek opening statement, but against the nobles who have almost no intersection at all, this is also the best opening sentence that Concubine De can think of.
The noble man owed the debt, and then said kindly: "Concubine De Niangniang assists the imperial concubine Niangniang to take care of the six palaces, she has always been busy, and the concubine is a useless person, how can she be easily disturbed." It's abrupt to come this time, and I hope the mother won't be surprised. ”
Concubine De glanced at Huan Chun, who was standing behind her, and thought that this nobleman's words were so strange, but she still smiled and said, "Where are you so busy?" It's just that sometimes there are several things in one place, and there are few people coming and going to watch the excitement. ”
The nobles had to follow the politeness, and for a while the guests and hosts were polite, but they didn't say anything serious.
Concubine De is very patient, and today is not a day of the matter, it is rare to be clean. Originally, Concubine De was still thinking about how to investigate the attack on Niansheng in depth last night, but now the nobles are equivalent to sending them to the door, and it is a somewhat interesting thing, so Concubine De is not in a hurry to ask for an answer.
Tonggui has been a vegetarian Buddha for many years, and there is no other one who can sit still, so he is not in a hurry to show his intentions, but just accompanies Concubine De Niangniang to drink tea and talk, and she will promise whatever the superior says.
The two concubines spent almost half an hour, and no one was willing to speak first.
Fortunately, the little palace maid who came with the nobles was a clever and courageous one, and stood on the side for a long time, and finally took Concubine De and the nobles to pick up the teacups, walked out from behind the nobles, knelt on the hall, and said crisply: "Concubine De Niangniang, the slave has something to report." ”
The little palace maid's sudden kneeling made everyone in the hall stunned.
Concubine De first glanced at the little palace maid, and then glanced at the nobleman meaningfully, but the nobleman still ate tea casually, as if she didn't look at it at all.
A playful smile appeared on the corner of Concubine De's mouth, so she didn't look at the little palace maid anymore, and drank tea by herself.
Huan Chun understood on the side, stepped forward, and reprimanded the little palace maid softly: "Niang Niang is talking to the little master, what is the matter with you as a slave?" actually dared to stand up and speak, is it a long life? ”
The little palace maid didn't go through anything in the end, and it was already the limit to be able to muster up the courage to stand up, but now she was only reprimanded by Huan Chun, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak anymore, and she couldn't help but tremble when she knelt there.
"Huanchun." Concubine De opened her mouth leisurely, "She is the palace maid with the nobles, even if there is anything wrong, the nobles must be punished, how can you act as a slave and maid in place of the master?" On the surface, this is not Huanchun, but anyone can hear it, this is Concubine De Niangniang knocking on the nobles.
Huanchun "resignedly" admitted his mistake and retreated.
Concubine De smiled and said to the nobles: "The palace is not strict, so the nobles are smiling." Turning to a slight coldness on his face, "But is this palace maid of the nobleman......"
"Concubine De Niangniang forgives her sins." Tong Guiren also couldn't sit still, got up and left his seat and bowed down to confess to Concubine De, "The concubine has no way to discipline her, and she has collided with the slave." Please punish the mother. ”
Concubine De waved her hand and motioned for the nobleman to get up, "Nobleman, sit down." This palace doesn't mean to punish, but I think this little girl is very interesting, I don't know what she wants to report? ”
This little palace maid has been with the noble person for a long time, although her actions today are not instructed by the noble person, but she, the noble lady, also knows what the little palace maid is about to say. Now Concubine De Niangniang opened her mouth to ask, the noble person hesitated slightly, and then had an idea in her heart, since she didn't know how to speak, it was better to let this little palace maid say, if she offended Concubine De, she could also have a way out, if Concubine De didn't care, those things that promised her own could also be mentioned.
After some consideration, the nobleman sat back in his chair and said, "What do you want to report to Concubine De?" Since Niangniang has spoken, you can speak quickly and let this little master and Niangniang listen together. ”
The little palace maid couldn't figure out what her little master meant for a while, and she kowtowed to Concubine De and Tong Guiren before she opened her mouth tremblingly.
It turned out that before dinner yesterday afternoon, Concubine Hui, who had never paid much attention to the nobles, suddenly entered the apse where the nobles lived. At that time, the master and servant thought that Concubine Hui was the same as before, and she wanted to help the nobles do some things such as copying Buddhist scriptures, but before these things were either called to the nobles to go to the front to order, or the big palace maid around Concubine Hui came to greet her, but now it is actually Concubine Hui's mother who is here, which makes people a little strange.
Concubine Hui sat for a while, the tea was useless, so she retreated, leaving only the nobles to talk to her personal palace maid.
After hearing Concubine Hui's instructions, the nobles were stunned. Concubine Hui asked her to go to Yonghe Palace to greet Concubine De, and she must take a look at the voice of being summoned to Yonghe Palace to teach.
"The concubine has no relationship with Concubine De, so she has to take a look at Miss Zhaojia's family, isn't it a little unreasonable?" Tong Guiren asked at that time, and Concubine Hui just asked her to go, but she didn't tell her what to pay attention to or what to investigate, which made her more and more uneasy.
Concubine Hui just sneered and ordered, "If you want to go, you can go." As for the reason or something, you have also been in the palace for many years, do you even want this little thing to be taught by this palace? After you come back, the palace will ask you about it, and you just need to return the 1510 you saw to the palace. ”
The nobleman became more and more incomprehensible, and asked hesitantly: "But what does the concubine want to see?" ”
"Look at everything! What you see with your eyes will be written down in this palace. Especially that Zhao Jia, you'd better be able to count all her hairs. Concubine Hui said angrily.
After the instructions were over, Concubine Hui didn't stay any longer, and left with her.
Only the nobles and her palace maids were relatively speechless.
"Concubine Hui's instructions, my little master couldn't figure it out after thinking about it all night. I got up at dawn and prepared to go to my mother. On the way, the little master also said to the slave maid that he was afraid that he couldn't see clearly, he couldn't remember, and it would be difficult to return to Concubine Hui's words when he went back, so it would definitely take a while. Slaves...... The slave and maid have been with the little master for so long, and they have seen that they are good at work, but there is nothing to ...... What ......" said the little palace maid who was kneeling on the ground was already running out of words here, and she really didn't know what to say.
"But you didn't write down what it was, did you?" Huan Chun looked at Concubine De's face and helped the little palace maid.
The little palace maid hurriedly kowtowed again and said, "Exactly, exactly." ”
Concubine De sat down and nodded, looked at the noble man and asked, "What she said is the truth?" ”
Tong Guiren's eyes were red, and he nodded hurriedly and said, "Back to Niangniang's words, everything she said is true." ”
Concubine De sighed softly, "Alas. I'm really sorry for you. I obviously don't know anything, but I still have to go this way for Concubine Hui, and it's because you have a good temperament, otherwise if you change your mind, you won't have to cry when you enter the door? ”
Tong Guiren wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, "The concubine has also won until now, if it weren't for the fact that this girl was a little fierce and the mother explained the matter, I am afraid that the concubine will sit until you send off the guest, and she still won't dare to mention anything." ”
"That's it." Concubine De turned around and motioned for Niansheng to come along, took Niansheng's hand and said to Tong Guidao: "Since you don't know anything, it's better to not know." Concubine Hui told you to take a good look at Niansheng, then you can take a good look. As he spoke, he motioned to the nobleman.
Although Nian Sheng didn't quite understand Concubine De's intentions, he still walked to the side of the noble man generously, first saluted steadily, and then said with a smile: "What the noble person wants to see, just look at it." However, the courtiers are rude, and they are afraid that they will not be able to see the nobles. ”
Tong Guiren hurriedly got up and helped him out, "Miss Zhaojia is polite." How can I ...... well" Although there was a prevarication between the words, the nobleman couldn't help but look up and down at the rumored Zhaojia Seventh Lady.
Sure enough, the skin is like cream, fair and lovely, although a pair of eyes are not standard apricot eyes, but with such willow leaf curved eyebrows, the smile is very bright, there is a pleasing charm, which makes people look very happy.
"Sure enough, it's better to see than to hear, Miss Zhaojia is really a celestial figure." Tong Guiren couldn't help but praise, and at the same time, he secretly snorted in his heart, with such a wonderful person, I am afraid that my little careful thinking will not be able to achieve my wish.
Nian Sheng thanked the noble Tong for his praise, but he didn't miss a trace of loss in her eyes, but Nian Sheng didn't say anything, just stood in front of the noble Tong, waiting for her to continue to "look".
