Chapter 302: Starlings compete for favor
Lan Baobao said and motioned to Yun Yao to take out some of the incense given by the emperor in the next room and hand it to Concubine Ren's maid.
"It's really a shame that my sister will take things from you here, if it weren't for you and Concubine Wan accompanying the palace that day and night, I don't know what my sister looks like now."
Then Ren Yingshuang took the hand of the blue baby, and her eyes signaled to the blue baby not to have outsiders.
"Yunxi Yunyao, you all go down, Yunyao, you take Manzhi to familiarize yourself with the environment." Lan Baobao looked at Yun Yao and Yun Xi commanded.
"Sister, did you come here today to explain something?" Blue Baby didn't like tactful expressions, but asked straight to the point.
Ren Yingshuang smiled, she is a Tubo clan, and her personality is also very hearty, she likes the straightforward character of the blue baby very much, if it wasn't for the peach blossom cake Gu eaten here before, Ren Yingshuang would have become a cronie on the side of the blue baby.
Ren Yingshuang said lightly: "The queen ......." ”
"Queen." At this time, the starling suddenly learned such a sentence.
Baby Blue realizes that it is no longer possible to place this starling in the house now, and maybe it will become a handle for others in the future.
Immediately, the blue baby took the starling out: "Yunxi put it in the house of those animals and hung it on the beam." ”
Yunxi took the starling and was very puzzled, why did he take it out when he put it in the house, Yunxi was just about to ask Yun Yao slapped his arm.
The blue baby smiled at Yun Yao and turned to enter the house.
"Sister, why are you scolding me?" Yunxi asked Yun Yao puzzled after the blue baby left.
Yun Yao replied helplessly: "This bird has become smart now, it will say what it hears, what if it is used by bad people." ”
Yun Yao didn't say it thoroughly, she only hoped that Yunxi would slowly figure it out, and Yunxi should learn to be smarter about many things.
Lan Baobao walked back to the house and saw Ren Guifei's look surprised, how did she not know that there was such a talking starling in this blue baby's house before, maybe it was because the starling was silent at that time, but now it seems to have opened up all of a sudden.
"Sister, you can talk now." Just now, Ren Yingshuang only said the word queen and was interrupted by the starling, and the blue baby motioned for Ren Yingshuang to continue.
"You still have to be careful when talking in this palace, let's use cups instead for the time being." Ren Yingshuang said and took out one of the cups on the table and turned it over: "There is a male pet hidden in this person's house, you remember what I said today, he will be useful in the future." ”
Ren Yingshuang did not nominate this time, but Ren Yingshuang knew that Lan Baobao understood who she was referring to.
Baby Sblue nodded in response.
"Also, my sister is here today to give my sister a suggestion, now the emperor's reward for your wealth should not be a small amount, and it is idle every day, so it is better to ......"
Ren Yingshuang motioned for Lan Baobao to come closer: "Use money to buy some concubines with decent family backgrounds, money can make ghosts grind, many concubines in this palace wanted to win the emperor's favor at first, but no matter what method was used, the emperor was still indifferent, and finally they gave up." ”
"You can use your wealth to win over these concubines, as well as the palace maids and eunuchs except for the cup palace, you can use your wealth to make them work for you and be your eyeliner."
Ren Yingshuang really regarded the blue baby as a confidant, and told the blue baby all the experience she had accumulated in the palace over the years.
Blue Baby also began to realize that since the Blue Baby entered the palace, he has been passively suppressed, even Mama Zhu has become the queen's person, and the original Yulian is also the eyeliner that the queen placed next to the blue baby.
Although the blue baby is harmless to people's hearts, but the heart of prevention, the blue baby should be there now.
"Thank you sister for reminding me today." Lan Baobao gratefully took Ren Guifei's hand.
"One more thing, sister, I think you should know, there is a white concubine named Bai Mengfan in this harem, she is a strange woman, she never participates in trivial matters in the palace, all day long her palace is full of clouds and mist, like a fairy-like place, the emperor will occasionally go over to drink tea, if you can make friends with her, I think she will help you."
Concubine Bai just listened to the rumors of the palace maids, saying that Concubine Bai was like a person who cultivated immortals, said little, was born extremely white, her skin could be broken, and she was just wearing a white gauze all day long, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter.
However, hearing Ren Yingshuang say this, Lan Baobao was a little curious and wanted to meet this white concubine.
There is such a person in the palace, Lan Baobao doesn't know, but it's not surprising, the emperor will hold a concubine selection every year in the spring, almost not Jin Lingluo is choosing, but the queen mother is choosing, and hundreds of palace maids and dozens of concubines are selected every year.
There are not a few concubines who have never seen much in front of the emperor in the palace, but among these many concubines, how difficult it is for Jin Lingluo to be so fond of the blue baby.
"Sister, what you said today is in your sister's mind, if there is anything that your sister needs her sister in the future, my sister must tell my sister." The blue baby looked at Ren Yingshuang sincerely and said slowly.
Now that the blue baby has also learned to come and go in the mortal world without being rude, he knows that Ren Yingshuang must tell himself these kindnesses, and the blue baby will definitely reciprocate.
"Niangniang, it's not too early, we should go back to the palace." Ren Yingshuang's personal maid whispered outside the door.
This is to remind Concubine Ren not to stay in Yulin Palace for too long, if she stays for a long time and is noticed by the queen, she will definitely find trouble with Concubine Ren.
In fact, these concubines are not because they respect Yan Ruoxue's status as the queen, but because they are afraid of her vicious methods, after Concubine Xiao was imprisoned in the cold palace, some palace maids said that Concubine Xiao was abused to death by Yan Ruoxue, and many opinions differed.
"That sister, my sister will go back today."
Ren Yingshuang was indeed not early, and she was very worried about whether the queen would ask herself to go to Huashun Palace for tea because she had been in Yulin Palace for a long time today.
But fortunately, at this time, Yan Ruoxue didn't have the energy to care about her, and she couldn't take care of herself anymore.
In Yan Ruoxue's body, with the strength of the medicine given by the ink dye, sometimes drinking the blood of some animals could no longer satisfy the demonic backlash in her body, and finally she had to order Liu An to go outside the palace to buy a minor girl, flow out some of her blood, put it in the purple sand altar, and place it in the cellar in Yan Ruoxue's palace.
Although Liu An didn't understand why the queen was like this, he didn't dare to ask more because he was afraid of the queen's viciousness, and he had also given the queen a lot of vicious ideas before, Liu An just knew that human blood has the effect of maintaining her face, and it makes sense to think about it these days.
All the young girls were sent by Yan Ruoxue to be placed in a cellar in the mountains, and they were raised with good food and drink all day long, because the queen seven days is a cycle, and after seven days, she will order Liu An and his party to disguise themselves as mountain bandits to go to the cellar to collect blood, and the queen is worried that he will be found out in the future, so he disguised his identity.
Because Mo Ran mentioned it to Yan Ruoxue before leaving, the girl's blood is the best stimulating effect on that pill, which can be edible, or it can soak the body in blood.
In Yulin Palace, when Concubine Ren left, Lan Baobao began to think about how to meet this white concubine.
It's not good to go hastily.
"Yun Yao, why is there no record of the white concubine in the roster of concubines?" Lan Baobao suddenly remembered that there was no record of Bai Mengfan in the list of objects given to the concubines at that time, so he called Yun Yao to ask.
"Niangniang, why did you ask about this white concubine? This lady does not participate in palace affairs all the year round, and she has also said before that all gifts in the palace will not be accepted, so Yun Yao did not write them into the roster. ”
Yun Yao opened her mouth thoughtfully, and then was a little surprised, it must have been the blue baby who was told by the concubine, Yun Yao saw that the blue baby wanted to know about the white concubine, so she said again: "Niangniang, if you want to know about the white concubine, only the emperor must know best." ”
Yun Yao only knew a little bit of the fragment, since the white concubine entered the palace, the emperor issued an edict in this harem, saying that no one was allowed to disturb the white concubine, and the maidservants around the white concubine were also brought into the palace by herself, so in this palace, the white concubine has become a special existence.
Hearing Yun Yao's words, the blue baby fell into deep thought, and then slapped the table, and his eyes instantly became shining: "Yun Yao went to burn the fire in the small kitchen." ”
"Mother, why do you want to burn the fire?" Yun Yao looked at Lan Baobao in confusion and said.
"Take the materials of the white fungus lotus seed soup, and the palace will personally send it to the emperor today."
So many things have happened recently, and Lan Baobao thought that it had been a long time since he had made white fungus lotus seed soup for the emperor to drink, and today he took advantage of the situation to find out the news of Concubine Bai.
If this white concubine is really as fairy as Concubine Ren said, wouldn't it be very helpful to herself.
Soon, the blue baby made lotus seed soup and sent it to Shou'an Palace.
"The emperor is taking a nap, Niangniang, you have to go over softly."
Chen Cheng saw that Yun Yao was holding the soup behind Lan Baobao, so he didn't stop him, but just reminded him in a low voice.
Jin Lingluo had already woken up the moment the blue baby walked in, but he pretended to be and continued to close his eyes.
Yun Yao gently placed the tray with soup on the emperor's bookcase and stepped back.
The blue baby slowly sat down beside Jin Lingluo, quietly admiring Jin Lingluo's sleeping face, the high bridge of the nose, the thin lips like bamboo leaves, the golden crown on the head, and the hair on the forehead did not fall at all.
Suddenly, Jin Lingluo opened his eyes, and the blue baby hurriedly got up, and his body leaned back like a tumbler with an unstable center of gravity.
Jin Lingluo quickly wrapped his arms around the back of the blue baby, and his face was only very close to the blue baby's face.
"Your Majesty, concubine...... It's just that...... See a trace of ink on your forehead. ”
Before Jin Lingluo could speak, Lan Baobao hurriedly explained.
I saw Jin Lingluo smile happily, and dipped his fingertips with ink and painted on Lan Baobao's full forehead: "Well, I feel that the baby is extremely beautiful when he paints this makeup." ”
Seeing that there was ink on Jin Lingluo's fingertips, the blue baby stretched out his jade finger, and also went to the inkstone and clicked a little on Jin Lingluo's forehead: "This makeup needs to be painted together to look good." ”
With that, the blue baby giggled and covered his mouth and laughed.
"Okay, don't make trouble, if this is seen and recorded by the historian, won't it be laughed at me, the emperor, I still have government affairs to deal with, you read and write poetry books on the side first."
Jin Lingluo remembered that this was not the Yulin Palace, so he gently wiped the ink off the blue baby's forehead.
Jin Lingluo thought that his words and deeds might have been recorded by Jing Yan, and sure enough, a herald had already reported the matter to Jing Yan, but it was not surprising that the emperor had proper fun.
"Your Majesty, government affairs are important, but the body is even more important, let's drink the lotus seed soup first, it won't taste good if it's cold." Blue Baby said with concern while wiping the ink on Jin Lingluo's forehead with Juanpa.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten the lotus seed soup made by the baby, and I can't live up to the baby's wishes." Saying that, Jin Lingluo picked up the soup bowl and scooped a spoonful into his mouth, this familiar taste entered his stomach, like an elixir, and his entire heart and lungs became warm.
Jin Lingluo thought while eating, on weekdays, the blue baby rarely takes the initiative to come to Shou'an Palace, and today he still brings the soup, presumably this blue baby is thinking about something in his heart, the blue baby is so careful, Jin Lingluo can see it at a glance.
