19. Night talk
The steps have been prepared, and An Cairen is no longer with them, so he called Feng Luan Chunen to pick him up early. Lin Chu put together the chrysanthemum shawl and said to Wanling: "I never thought that there would be such a play, but it was not well managed." ”
Wan Ling sat upright on her shoulder, rubbing a Hetian jade Ruyi Pei on her waist in her hand, and also apologized: "It's rare for Sister Concubine De to entrust me with other things, but something still went wrong... It's better to send someone to inform me. ”
Lin Chu leaned back and said with a sigh of relief: "This is natural, but the Ancai people have chosen the wrong path." ”
Wan Ling wondered: "How come? She can be said to have taken the limelight, and I am afraid she is very happy to see the emperor's expression. Lin Chu shook his head with a smile and asked rhetorically: "With such a swagger, will the concubine and the queen let her stand out like this?" ”
Wanling thought to himself: "An Cai's life is not very beautiful, but he is also clear and beautiful. Now that she has this favor, probably the concubine will like it, right? ”
Lin Chu shook his head: "This is wrong. An Cairen took the initiative to compete for favor, which shows that she has the heart to stare at a high position, and she also has a little mind in her stomach. The concubine now has a good staff officer Xie Jieyu, which is enough, and there is no need for another scheming one. Moreover, the Xie family is attached to the Zheng family, so Xie Jieyu will not dare and will not betray the concubine no matter what. Then Ancai people are different, who knows if this son will become a white-eyed wolf in the future? ”
Wanling couldn't help but suddenly realize, and asked again: "Then the queen will be interested in helping?" ”
Lin Chu thought for a while: "This may be possible, if this can divide the favor of Yun Jiang and the concubine, no matter who she is, she is happy." "Pause, Lin Chu hooked his lips, "An Cairen doesn't like this material Yun Jiang must not like it, and the concubine is wary of her, she doesn't go to the queen's place to live, is it in vain waiting for the concubine to swallow her alive?" ”
Wanling fully understood at this time, and then smiled again: "Sister Gui Concubine is still careful and thoughtful, I don't know any of this." Lin Chu said: "You don't know anything, but I'm afraid that I will blame you for saying the wrong thing, what are you afraid of?" Our three sisters, in the end, there is no reason to disperse, Yun Jiang is a loving person, you don't have to be so restrained. ”
But seeing Wanling, he shook his head: "I was just a maid in the concubine's room, but I won the emperor's favor by chance, if it weren't for the kindness of the two sisters, I am afraid I would have died in the palace long ago." - I regard my two sisters as benefactors, but I am still afraid of everything in my heart, don't dislike me, my sister. ”
She thought of those trembling days in a trance, and she trembled a little, she was afraid of those days, and she was very afraid of the concubine. She knew that she was just an ordinary person with no family background and no appearance, so she only dared to live cautiously, and she didn't dare to be reckless or talk too much.
Lin Chu's face softened, and he said gently: "What are you talking about?" If there was no Yun Jiang back then, we wouldn't even have a good time. Back then, she suddenly lost her son, was frustrated and lonely, and her days were dark, but Yun Jiang accompanied her through the heart.
With a low sigh, Lin Chu asked again, "How is the Jingliang person who lives in your palace?" But a fuel-efficient lamp? ”
"She spends her days in her house. Last time, the concubine asked Su Xin to send her a bowl of sugar steamed cheese. Su Xin came back and said that Jingliangren was painting at the time, and it was the bamboo forest of Xiangfei in the backyard of her house. Su Xin said that there were also a few paintings hanging on the wall, and there were a few scrolls of pictures on the table, and she wanted to come to Jingliangren to do this in the past few days. She occasionally comes to say hello, and she speaks very modestly, she is a knowledgeable young lady, and she is quite good. ”
Lin Chu bowed his head: "So she should be a talented woman who doesn't eat fireworks in the world, just let it go for a while."
Let's say that the next day, the Ancai people tactfully inherited the emperor's heart, and won many rewards for a while and promoted to the six nobles, and they were in the limelight for a while. The masters of each palace sent people to greet and give gifts. For a while, the crowd in front of her room was crowded, and the Shu Meiren and Liu Guiren in the same palace had no chance to enter the Daofu.
