Chapter 19: Su Guiren
The queen accompanied the queen mother to touch the dominoes for a long time, and returned to the dormitory when she was holding the lamp. After washing his face and hands, Shanrou led Wang Jinbao into the west hall to speak. The queen leaned on the water green treasure pattern to welcome the pillow, holding the thirst-quenching tea in her hand, and without drinking a sip, she rested on the kang table.
She asked, "How is Yikun Palace doing?" ”
Wang Jinbao knelt on the ground respectfully, didn't dare to raise his head, and replied: "It's already finished, Ming'er can let Su Guiren move in." ”
Shanrou knelt on the pedal, not lightly or lightly serving the queen's legs, she carefully coveted the queen's face, the queen's face was calm, and said: "Yikun Palace is the dormitory where the concubine lived in the first dynasty, facing the Qianqing Palace, which belongs to the second in the West Palace. After all, Su Guiren's grade is not high, and if he occupies a palace alone, it is really not in accordance with the rules. ”
Shanrou said: "You are the one who serves in front of the emperor, what the master thinks, you have to do it." What the master didn't expect for a while, you should remind it. The weather was not hot, but Wang Jinbao's forehead was densely covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and he didn't dare to wipe it, so he had to let his face flow all over his face, and it was very salty and sour in his eyebrows and eyes.
He said: "The emperor told that the servants would not dare to disobey the order. ”
The queen wore tortoiseshell gold chisel flower armor on her fingertips, and she was several heavily buckled with the kang, which shocked Wang Jinbao's heart, and she didn't dare to come out more and more, nodded her forehead to the ground, and didn't say a word. After a while, the queen said in a normal tone: "Since it is the emperor's will, you can do it." ”
Wang Jinbao's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly responded: "Yes." ”
Seeing that the queen no longer spoke, she was about to get up and leave, but she heard the queen say again: "The main hall is the main hall of a palace, and the rank of Su Guiren is lower, and he is Han again." After a pause, he didn't look at Wang Jinbao, just stared at the Jingdezhen blue and white bucket color pattern tea cup on the kang table, and said lightly: "What the emperor said in front of him, you should be clear." ”
Wang Jinbao knew that it was not good, the queen didn't say it on the surface, and she didn't say anything in secret, it was all up to him to figure it out. Coming out of Changchun Palace, Wang Jinbao didn't even have time to straighten his waist, so he went to discuss with Wu Shulai, the two were brothers since childhood, and they supported each other to have today's status.
Wu Shulai thought about it again and again, and said: "The women in the harem can't be faced, it all depends on the grace of the master. Now that Su Guiren is on the freshness of the master, let's not be tough. You and I have to take care of the queen, it's not ordinary. I saw that the Qingyun Zhai in the east side hall of Yikun Palace was quite spacious, and Su Guiren had enough to live. When the master came to him, you said that there was a beam in the main hall that needed to be repaired, and then look at the master's face and act. ”
Wang Jinbao heard Wu Shulai's remarks, patted his thigh and flattered: "My brother is thoughtful, and my brother admires it." He entered the Xinuan Pavilion to the emperor, the emperor was eating the evening wine and snack, after listening to him, he did not show displeasure, only "um", he knew it.
Wang Jinbao quietly retreated, wiped the sweat on his forehead, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and hummed a Beijing tune to go down to the room.
The emperor turned over the green head of the green orange, and without waiting for the respectful room to pass it on, he announced that she would go to the Heart Cultivation Hall to serve the pen and ink.
Qingcheng has been in the palace since he entered the palace, except for the festival banquet, he has hardly walked around the palace. She was not favored, she was often deducted by slaves when she ate, wore and wore clothes, and the clothes and fabrics that she collared each season were also leftover after being picked by others, and Zhu Hai's jewelry was even more shabby. Hai'an and Er Qi searched carefully in the cabinet, but they couldn't find a few things to face the saint, so they were very anxious.
Qingcheng was very peaceful, taking advantage of their busyness, combed two small buns of hair, went to the yard to twist a few heavy petals of begonia hairpins, put on a new green silk palace dress, stood in the house, and said: "No need to toss, I'll go back." ”
