Chapter 408: Uncomfortable
Wang Zhaoyi glanced at it, and the palace people hurriedly said: "The fourth princess has a heart, the supplements sent and the master's illness are not rushed, and this hall is full of gold and jade, not to mention how affordable, as soon as the master is promoted, he will release a wave of rewards, and there is nothing more than real money and silver at this time." ”
Wang Zhaoyi is not short of money, but it is impossible to say how rich her private savings are.
In the case of the annual moon appreciation, the queen never deducts harshly, but there are many places in the palace where money is used. Many rewards look like they are many and valuable, but they are not used as money. For example, if you are rewarded with a set of red gold cups, can you take out a plate or a cup to reward people? Give you a pair of jeweled bottles, can you give this bottle to a palace maid eunuch?
When others give congratulatory gifts, they all pick up good-looking and well-intentioned things, but most of these things are actually useless. She couldn't wear so much clothes, and the furnishings couldn't be exchanged for money, so she could only put ashes in the warehouse.
In fact, don't the givers of gifts know that these things are just good-looking, but in fact, most of the people who receive gifts don't use them? It's like when the Cao family held a birthday banquet, someone sent 500 catties of longevity noodles over, and the Cao family couldn't eat it together, and in the end it would be ruined a lot anyway, but this is human favor, that is, face.
Wang Zhaoyi said: "The gift of the fourth princess is too generous. ”
The hall full of gold and jade, to put it bluntly, is the money piled up, a different size and shape of the ingots, gold and silver staggered, full, at a glance looks so bright, tsk, no wonder there is a word called see the money eyes open, this real money and silver in front of you, the light can not be opened by your eyes.
"It's not taking advantage." Wang Zhaoyi spoke softly and slowly, and she had to take a break after saying half a sentence: "The fourth princess is about to get married, and our congratulatory gift will not be thin at that time." ”
"Isn't it? The fourth princess is a concubine, but it is difficult to choose, the emperor and the queen mother love the princess so much, I think I will definitely pick a perfect and outstanding concubine. ”
"Do you know the thoughts of the emperor and his mother?"
The palace maid smiled and said: "The slave maid doesn't dare to speculate on the thoughts of the emperor and the mother, but the slave maid thinks that the four princesses are more loved by the mother than the other princesses, and the concubine she is looking for is naturally not worse than the three princesses in front." The door is only good at learning character, and everything has to be stronger than it. ”
Wang Zhaoyi closed her eyes and said nothing.
One is tired, and the other is ...... After all, the palace ladies are young, and there are many things they can't think of.
Pan Cairen sat in front of the window in a daze.
The yard was desolate, maybe it was nice in the summer, but now it was empty.
Pan Cairen's heart is also empty.
It's quiet here, and it's scary.
She used to live a different life, she used to serve in front of the palace, there were many people, there were many things, and she couldn't rest for several hours when she was busy.
At that time, she still thought that if one day, the emperor gave her a title and made her a concubine seriously, then she would have a blessed life.
But now she has gotten what she wants?
On the surface, it seems so.
But she knew in her heart that it wasn't like that at all.
The emperor is disgusted with her, she has been serving in front of the palace for so long, she should know, and she should know more or less what she shouldn't know, and Gonggong Yao will never let them out of the palace.
In her life, will she stay in such a courtyard until she dies?
Pan Cairen shuddered.
It is secluded and desolate, not like a house for living, but like a grave for the dead.
She can't be buried alive here.
She'll have to figure out a way...... Think of a way to get out of here.
Even if she is a talented person, let her be a palace maid again.
If only I could go back to the Imperial Palace...... There is hope after that.
Pan Cairen looked at the west side of the courtyard.
The three rooms over there are lived by Deng Cairen.
Pan Cairen also vaguely heard the palace maid next to Deng Cairen muttering, saying that they are also talented people, why let them live in the west, it must be hot in summer, and the northwest wind is blowing strongly in winter.
Pan Cairen had no intention of bothering with her.
What does this palace maid know? Do you care if your home is east or west?
As for Deng Cairen, she didn't say anything.
In the past, Deng Cairen's temperament was like this, she didn't like to talk much, and she didn't like to get out of trouble.
But now ...... Pan Cairen thinks that the two of them should be in the same boat. She thinks alone, and it may not be that two people can discuss it thoroughly.
She stood up, and the palace people who served her immediately said, "Cairen wants to go out?" ”
Pan Cairen glanced at her.
This palace maid looks like she looks honest, but Pan Cairen doesn't dare to believe her.
"It's not that I want to go out, I want to ask, it's this hour, and the dining room hasn't sent lunch yet?"
The palace maid replied, "Xiao Quanzi has already gone to fetch food, and she will be back soon." Where do talented people want to eat? Is it in the main house, or is it just in this house? ”
"Let's use it in the main house." Pan Cairen hesitated, and then changed his words: "You go and ask Deng Cairen, anyway, we used to eat together, please invite her to come over and eat together." ”
Deng Cairen really came.
said that it was a meal, but in fact, the two people's minds were not on the meal, let the palace maids around them serve vegetables and soup, Pan Cairen had a stomach of things to say, but it was not easy to say it in front of these people. After this meal, when the palace people packed up and withdrew, she hurriedly took this opportunity to say to Deng Cairen: "Sister Deng, what can we do in the future?" ”
Deng Cairen asked her: "Then what are your plans?" ”
"What can I do, but we can't just stay here anyway. As time goes by, the emperor really forgets about us completely, and it will be too late to find a way when the time comes. ”
Deng Cairen looked at her and sighed slowly: "I'm worried about you thinking like this." We've been together for three years, and if you listen to me, there's nothing wrong with life here, and you can live here with peace of mind. ”
Pan Cairen was stunned.
Deng Cairen glanced outside, lowered his voice and said: "We can pick up our lives, get a position, and have a place to live, which is already a great luck, if you do something inappropriate now, do you want to follow in the footsteps of Chunran?" ”
When it came to Chunran, Pan Cairen's heart suddenly tightened.
"But ......"
"Chunran is just too restless and wants too much, but he ended up like that. We now have a bowl of down-to-earth rice to eat, maybe we can be promoted like Wang Zhaoyi and them in the next few years, there is nothing bad about it. ”
"But the emperor ...... We may never see the emperor again in the future. ”
When it came to the emperor, Deng Cairen was also silent.
"Anyway, you better don't act rashly lately, and let's see the situation."
Deng Cairen's words are not unreasonable, but Pan Cairen's heart is uncomfortable.
She couldn't live a day here.
