511 Good Idea
511 Since the canonization of Zeng Guiren, the lord of Duanmin has been running to the queen more diligently.
Wei Yining and Wei Lanqi were like mirrors in their hearts, knowing that she was afraid that the queen would feel uncomfortable, but they just didn't say it.
Of course, the queen didn't show how unhappy, people who have been in the palace for a long time may not be able to practice other skills, but they can still do a few points regardless of their mood and anger.
On this day, after the morning class, several people came to Fengyi Palace to gossip with the queen, and saw Diao Worm, the little apprentice of Ding Neijian, coming from the front hall halfway.
Duanmin's maid Xun'er said: "In the past two days, the people of Tianxi Palace have been weaving shuttles and running forward, wanting to call the emperor to go to them. But even Father-in-law Ding touched his nose, and the others ran in vain, looking at the limping appearance of the worm, it was designated that it was used by the concubine Niangniang to vent his anger. ”
"I heard that the concubine Niangniang is indeed sick," the county lord said: "Yesterday, Imperial Doctor Liu said it when he asked the queen for peace. ”
"How did I hear that the concubine was sick with frostbite because she waited all night for the emperor?" Wei Lanqi lowered her voice and said, "Speaking of such a cold day, the concubine only wore a layer of gauze clothes. ”
"Fifth sister, how do you know everything?" Wei Yining now really admires Wei Lanqi's ability to inquire about secrets: "I said, why did you run out early in the morning!" ”
"What's more, I also found out about the secret recipe of Zeng Guiren's beauty!" Wei Lanqi said proudly: "Let's try it when we go back." ”
"Do you still need to maintain your beauty?" The lord of Duanmin County looked sideways at Wei Lanqi, who had a snowy appearance, how could there be a little flaw.
"Why not?" Wei Lanqi said: "You see that Zeng noble person is not as beautiful as a real person, saying that Yining's skin is white, and she is afraid that she is slightly inferior, not to mention that my skin is not as good as Yining's." ”
"Then tell me what kind of beauty secret recipe Zeng Guiren used? If it's easy, let's try some too. "Lord Duanmin couldn't help but be moved when he heard it, how can there be a girl who doesn't love beauty?
"It's a kind of thing called dragon skin cream," Wei Lanqi said as if offering treasures: "It is said to be boiled out of tender donkey skin, which is not as medicinal as Ejiao, but it is better than nourishing and beautifying the skin." ”
A few people came to Fengyi Palace while talking, and when they entered, they saw the queen sitting there peeling walnuts.
Seeing this, the lord of Duanmin County smiled and said, "This must be for the Queen Mother." ”
"You know everything," the queen smiled kindly, "The queen mother likes to eat walnuts and pine nuts every winter, so I want to make some for her to taste." ”
Wei Yining and the others sat down to help the queen peel walnut clothes together, while picking out some words that were not painful.
"Niangniang, I just passed the word before, and the emperor didn't come to us for dinner in the morning, so he used it directly at Zeng Guiren." Bai Lu, the chief eunuch of Fengyi Palace, walked in and cautiously replied.
The queen's hand paused slightly, and then said casually: "Got it, you go down." ”
Lord Duanmin looked at the queen and said, "I've long wanted to eat at the queen's mother's side, since the emperor won't have lunch here today, then we won't leave." ”
After speaking, he pushed Wei Yining and Wei Lanqi with his elbow.
"The queen mother manages the six palaces, and the mother is the world, so it's not good for us to always be so disturbed, right?" Wei Lanqi's cat eyes sparkled and said in a somewhat naughty tone.
"Actually, I'm not that busy, since you're here, let's eat together, and it's more lively." The queen said, "You don't need to be careful in front of me, what was done in the past is still like that now." ”
"Auntie, in fact, that Zeng Wanshi is just a temporary freshness." The county lord of Duanmin hurriedly said: "You are the mother of a country, how can she compare." ”
"It's normal for the emperor to take a concubine, and I haven't reached this point with a small belly," the queen said quietly: "It's just that I don't know what's going on lately, and I'm so stunned in my heart that I can't say why." ”
"Otherwise, you recite the Diamond Sutra?" Lord Duanmin came up with an idea randomly: "Doesn't the Queen Mother often say that chanting scriptures can calm people's hearts?" ”
Wei Lanqi has more eyes than the county lord of Duanmin, and knows that the queen has a heart disease, but she can't tell it, so she said: "I heard that the emperor praised the prince greatly in the early court yesterday, saying that he is benevolent and sensitive, and has the style of a king. ”
Sure enough, after the queen listened to her words, her brows unconsciously stretched a little.
Wei Lanqi hit the railway while it was hot: "Although it is said that the crown prince is slightly outstanding because of the royal bloodline, since ancient times, the son Xiao Mu, half of this is also the credit of the queen's mother." It's just that Niangniang is usually modest and introverted, and she doesn't show her talents easily. ”
"That's right, that's right. Lanki, you're so right. Lord Duanmin couldn't help but stroking his palms and said: "Niangniang should do a few things to let everyone see, what is the talent and heart of the main palace." ”
"You guys are really messing around, there are so many things in this palace from ancient times to the present, and they all have established rules. What is there to make a fuss about? The queen said angrily.
Of course, she understood what Duanmin County Lord and they meant, they wanted her to establish authority in the harem, so that she could suppress her arrogance before Zeng Guiren became a climate.
It's easier said than done. It's not so easy to do things beautifully and not be criticized.
"Yining's brain had better make it, and you should find a way to come out." Lord Duanmin kicked the ball to Wei Yining.
Wei Yining didn't shirk, thought about it and said, "It's better to make winter clothes." ”
"Winter clothes?!" The other three were puzzled.
"The winter clothes made for the border soldiers were finished and shipped to the border as early as August." The queen said: "This is the rule of the past, and I never dare to make a mistake, and it will be a waste if I make winter clothes and send them over." ”
"Niangniang, you listen to me. This winter coat is not for the border soldiers, but for the people who transport grain," Wei Yining explained: "Now Your Majesty is most concerned about disaster relief, and specially transports grain from the harvest to the disaster-stricken places. Now 30,000 or 40,000 people have been recruited, and I am afraid that there will be more in the future. Now that the weather is getting colder, there should be no problem for the people to eat, but they are afraid that the clothes will not be guaranteed. ”
Wei Yining has seen the imperial court recruit people to work as coolies, and those people don't eat as well as pigs and dogs, and their clothes are even more tattered.
But in any case, although the food is not good, at least it can still give you a good stomach, but it is not easy to have a decent winter coat.
The queen's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said: "Yining's idea is really good, I remember that there are still a lot of old materials in our palace, which is enough to make tens of thousands of winter clothes." ”
"This is a really good idea," Wei Lanqi nodded and praised: "It really kills three birds with one stone, it not only puts the old things that have been shelved in the treasury come in handy, but also shows that the queen is virtuous and loves the people, and reassures the emperor." ”
