Chapter 7: New Clothes
Just after noon, Xiao Meiren arrived at Yao Chuxi's house again.
"Sister Yao's chess skills are exquisite, sister, I'm afraid I'm not as good as you."
"Sister Xiao praised her like this, but she really didn't dare to take it."
When Xiao Meiren first arrived, Yao Chuxi was playing chess by herself, so Xiao Meiren stayed in the house under the pretext of playing chess with her.
Yao Chuxi is not stupid, seeing that Xiao Meiren landed the sunspot in her hand in a place where she must lose, the most obvious meaning is that she is deliberately losing to her.
"Little master, Guan Shanggong of Shangyi Prison has come to send a few sets of clothes, please take a look." Luo Yu walked in with tea and said in a voice that Xiao Meiren could just hear.
"Got it." Yao Chuxi put down the chess pieces, smiled apologetically at Xiao Meiren, and followed the rain.
At this time, Xiao Meiren was not in a good mood, you must know that Guan Shanggong had also stammered her before, but she had never seen Guan Shanggong since she was down, and now that Yao Cairen and the emperor stayed together until Tianming, Guan Shanggong hurriedly came over and stammered.
Originally, Guan Shanggong wanted to wait in the front room for a while, but Luoyu felt that it was inappropriate, so he took this opportunity to call the master out, saving her from having to deal with Xiao Meiren.
Luoyu didn't want Xiao Meiren to come into contact with her master. Not to mention that she is afraid that Xiao Meiren will step on the master's luck, the most important thing is that she is a person who has been rejected by the emperor, and having more contact with her will inevitably make the emperor unhappy, and the terrible rain will affect the master.
Guan Shanggong saw Yao Chuxi walking out, hurriedly put down the teacup and stood up, and saluted her.
Yao Chuxi, out of politeness, also returned a salute.
This time, Guan Shanggong brought a lot of clothes, and it took a whole box to barely fit it, and it was still moved by four palace maids in twos and twos.
Yao Chuxi took a brief look at the clothes and skirts on his face, and the colors were mostly light and bright. For example, a light cyan embroidered chrysanthemum blouse, a light green embroidered red carp skirt, a light blue emerald skirt, and an apricot orange embroidered butterfly palace dress.
As the clothes under the box were taken out, Yao Chuxi's brows furrowed.
Among them was a dark filigree pleated satin skirt with a few pearls at the bottom. There is also a Su embroidered Yuehua brocade shirt, and the threads used are all gold threads.
"Guan Shanggong, with my current grade, if this dress is worn out, I'm afraid it will cause controversy." Yao Chuxi said.
"It's too much to worry about." Guan Shanggong immediately accompanied him and said with a smile: "Now that talented people are favored, are you still worried that they can't be promoted?" According to the slave maid, it is a matter of time before it is promoted, this dress will have to be put on sooner or later, and the slave and maid brought it today, and it will save the next time to move it, right? ”
Yao Chuxi still felt that it was inappropriate, even the rain and snow felt inappropriate, and this dress must not be accepted.
Xiao Meiren in the back room listened carefully with the tent, and inevitably remembered that when she was favored in the past, Guan Shanggong also brought a bunch of clothes, including clothes inlaid with pearls and embroidered gold threads, but now they can't get on.
"Guan Shanggong, if this dress is placed in the Yunyan Pavilion, even if it is not topped, it will inevitably have trespassing, I feel that it is inappropriate." Yao Chuxi's attitude is obvious.
"Talent people don't know, the clothes sent by the slave and maid when Xiao Meiren who lives with you are favored are directly put on, where have you considered what is not arrogant, the emperor looks happy is the main thing, there is the emperor's favor, what are you afraid of?"
Hearing this, Xiao Meiren clenched her fists, and she was angry.
"Talent, do you think, with the emperor's grace, what do you wear to look at other people's faces?"
Guan Shanggong once said this to Xiao Meiren.
Xiao Meiren couldn't listen to it anymore, and walked out of the back room directly, startling Guan Shanggong, how could she have thought that there was always someone in the back room?
"Sister Yao, sister, I remember that I still have something, and I will play chess with you another day."
"Sister walk slowly." Yao Chuxi gently saluted Xiao Meiren.
This is undoubtedly a slap in the face to Guan Shanggong.
"Guan Shanggong, if you are afraid of trouble, it doesn't matter, I will ask the palace maid to help send it to Shangyi Prison, and if you have the opportunity to wear it in the future, how about visiting you to help you move back to Yunyan Pavilion?"
Guan Shanggong's face was not very good, and his smile was much fake, "Since the talented people didn't match these clothes, then the slave maid just took it away, how could he work with the palace maid of Yunyan Pavilion, the slave and maid retired first." ”
Seeing off Xiao Meiren and Guan Shanggong, Yao Chuxi sighed deeply and gently hammered his shoulder.
"Now there are a lot of new clothes for the little master, counting the emperor's reward and today's Guan Shang Palace, plus the old clothes of the little lord in previous years, the old and new will not be the same for a few days!" The snow is very happy, how can a woman not like new clothes?
"Put them all away, and keep these new clothes for you to wear when you drive." Yao Chuxi only said one word, and helped Luoyu back to the back room.
Usually she rarely takes a nap, but she was tossed too hard by the emperor last night, and it is inevitable that she will lack sleep, and she will sleep for a while at noon anyway.
Luoyu served her to take a nap, and turned to the front room to help Luoxue arrange her clothes.
"These new clothes are really good-looking, and they are comfortable to touch, but they are much stronger than the clothes of the little master in previous years." Luoxue said.
"Hold back a little noise, little master sleep." Luo Yu whispered, "The little master has just been bed, and I don't know what to do in the future, I can't cause trouble for the little master now, and this new dress can't be fully dressed, so that others may not be able to arrange it." ”
"But I look at these new clothes so beautiful, if they keep piling up, they won't spoil?"
"I said I couldn't get up all the time?" Luo Yu asked helplessly.
When everyone thought that Yao Chuxi had won the favor, the emperor unexpectedly summoned others.
That person is the Shucai person of Lanyue Pavilion, who has been sick, coughing all day long, like a sick beauty, and rarely goes out of the door of Lanyue Pavilion. I heard that the relationship with Cao Meiren is not very good, Cao Meiren has always wanted to move out on the grounds that Shu Cairen is sick, but Ji Linghai is not sure.
The emperor summoned her to accompany her to the Taihe Hall for three consecutive days, and others looked at her and laughed at Yao Chuxi.
One day when the snow fell and went out, I saw that Shangyi Supervisor Guan Shanggong took the palace maid to carry a box into Lanyue Pavilion, and looked down on him, "Who is this?" Two days ago, he scolded our little master, why did he praise others in a blink of an eye? ”
"Don't talk nonsense, it's Shanggong, if it reaches her ears, the little master will have a hard time trying to protect you." Falling rain said on the side.
The two hurriedly returned to Yunyan Pavilion.
The emperor's favor is really not long, Shu Cairen has only been favored for three days, and he has changed to someone else in a blink of an eye.
One morning, when the snow was wiping the table, he muttered: "I'm afraid that Guan Shanggong will bring someone to carry the box to Lianchun Pavilion at this time, right?" ”
Who's to say it isn't? Not long after the morning, Guan Shanggong took people to Lianchun Pavilion to talk to Chen Cairen.
Yao Chuxi couldn't help but think in his heart, is this Shangyi Supervisor idle and has nothing to do? Do you make clothes all day long? Give a whole box as soon as you send it?
However, these days, Yunyan Pavilion is still quite sad.
The quality of life is directly related to the emperor, what about staying together until dawn? I'm afraid that the emperor won't be able to remember that there is still Yao Cairen.
Guan Shanggong sometimes muttered when passing by Yunyan Pavilion, who asked you to pretend to be high? It's okay now, the emperor doesn't want to see you anymore.
But fate always plays tricks on them, and just when everyone else is coldly laughing at Yunyan Pavilion, the emperor is here again.
In the hot summer, the emperor couldn't help but think of the tea in Yunyan Pavilion, and it was very comfortable to drink.
"The concubine asks the emperor for peace." Yao Chuxi was busy kneeling on the ground.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, how are you doing?" The emperor asked.
How does she answer this question? Maybe people with noble status just like to say this kind of thing that others can't understand and can't answer.
Luoyu immediately served tea in, and then withdrew with a tray.
"How is your master doing?" Pan Zhenan asked about the rain outside the door.
"Back to my father-in-law, everything is fine with my little master." Falling rain replied.
"Your master is not like other masters, and he can't stammer." Pan Zhenan smiled and lightly lifted the dust whisk in his hand.
"Why, look at what my father-in-law said." Luo Yu didn't know whether Pan Zhen'an's words were good or blamed, so he could only pick up a good one and say, "My little master is not afraid that my father-in-law will not look down on that little bit of broken silver, and he can't match the identity of his father-in-law, right?" ”
Pan Zhenan didn't answer, just looked at the rain.
He still likes this Yao Cairen's temperament, he doesn't fight, he doesn't fight, he doesn't stutter, which is very much in line with the emperor's wishes.
It should be favored in the future, and promotion is not a matter of time.
Xiao Meiren in the west hall on the side was really angry, she had stammered Yao Chuxi for a few days and thought that she had accepted the meaning, but why didn't she come to her now?
She originally thought that if the emperor came again, Yao Chuxi could find a way to find Xiao Meiren to sit down, and it would be good to meet the emperor and let the emperor remember her, right?
In the past few days, she went to the east hall to play chess, enjoy flowers and tea with her, thinking that she had conveyed the meaning very clearly.
But in fact, Yao Chuxi didn't understand what she meant at all.
"Who lives in the West Hall of Yunyan Pavilion?" The emperor asked suddenly, Yao Chuxi was stunned, worried that the emperor would be angry after telling the truth.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." The emperor took another sip of tea.
"Back to the emperor, the west hall of Yunyan Pavilion lives in Xiao Meiren."
"Xiao Meiren?" The emperor raised his head with a teacup and looked at her, lowered his head again in a blink of an eye, and asked in a voice without a trace of waves: "Before, it was Xiao Zhaorong?" ”
"Back to the emperor, exactly."
"Have you enjoyed living with her?" The emperor asked again.
Yao Chuxi thought about it, if he said that the emperor would treat them as a party? If it is unpleasant, will the emperor think that she forgets her roots when she is favored?
"I'm asking you."
"Does the emperor want to hear the truth?"
The emperor was quietly surprised, put down the teacup and looked her in the eyes, "Of course." ”
"The concubine and Xiao Meiren get along quite happily, but this happiness also comes after the concubine sleeps, so the concubine can't say whether it's happy or not."
To tell the truth, the emperor can't blame him too, right?
