Chapter 130: The Past Is Untraceable
Suo Lan waited by the side, knowing that the queen was depressed, so he sprinkled the excellent Qiu Ju Luoying into the gilded copper furnace of the nine days of Fengwu, in order to relieve some of the depression and make the queen more comfortable. Before the spices were sprinkled into the incense burner, they were swallowed by the bright red tongue of fire, the smoke was everywhere, the slow rise was scattered, and the sandalwood in the room was refreshing.
"This palace used to like Mulan falling dew, and I also smelled Du Yu Fangzhi, but it was the first time to use this autumn chrysanthemum. It seems that they are all the best products among sandalwood, but the taste is different. Lan Xin closed his eyes, these words were more like saying to himself.
"Niangniang is of noble birth, so naturally she has used good things. The slave maid only felt that this autumn chrysanthemum fell to the occasion, and the fragrance was light and long, although it was not as cool as the slightly cool medicinal fragrance of Mulan Falling Dew, and it was not as sweet and pungent as Du Fangzhi, calm and profound, but it was very penetrating, and it seemed that it had to go through hardships and survive the perseverance to be more precious. Suo Lan said this in a soothing tone.
"You're insightful." Lan Xin hooked her lips and smiled: "It's not in vain that the palace will keep you by your side to serve, and you can always talk and relieve your boredom in your spare time." Those people in the harem spoke, and the palace listened to it so much that its ears were grinding out of calluses. Or talk about something like sandalwood that makes people feel comfortable and carefree. ”
I said this on my lips, but I still couldn't put it down in my heart. "Please be in the side hall, you also saw it. The Ministry of Internal Affairs picked up the green head card of pure concubines, and they tried their best to find out the truth. It doesn't seem to care about whether the pure concubine is really unwell, but the heart of the palace. Opening his eyes slightly, Lan Xin felt that he had been closed for a long time, and he was a little uncomfortable with the strong light, so he frowned and took a deep breath.
"Niangniang is the master of the middle palace, the mother of the world, Niangniang's mind is naturally the mind of the six palaces. The slave maid thought that this was understandable. Suo Lan pursed her lips and smiled, and she didn't know what to say, so she said tentatively: "The slave maid really didn't come today when she saw that the pure concubine Niangniang was really not here." ”
It is expected that the pure concubine will not come, and the matter on the face is irrelevant, but her mind will definitely not be just settled. We must think of some good way to come up and make up for this relationship. It's not just to come up with some good ideas to win the emperor's sympathy. The former made Lan Xin spurn, and the latter made her spurn, after all, she didn't like this pure concubine very much in her heart.
It's just that at that time, Lan Xin never thought that the pure concubine's mind was not only that.
Because of the resistance in her heart, Lan Xin couldn't let go of her heart at all, and her obsession made her cautiously wary of the pure concubine: "This palace has already let Xue Guining keep an eye on it, and if there is any trouble, I can know it for a while." Of course, if the pure concubine doesn't come, there is a reason why she doesn't come. But whether she comes or not, this palace can't let down her guard. ”
Looking at the clever and intelligent Suo Lan in front of her, Lan Xin suddenly remembered that she was still living outside the Changchun Palace, and couldn't help asking, "Are you still used to living in the lower courtyard?" Seeing that your clothes are still thin, the seasonal materials assigned by the Ministry of Internal Affairs have not yet been cut into clothes? ”
"Thank you Niangniang for remembering, although the lower courtyard is farther away, the slave maid has lived there since she entered the palace, and she has long been used to it." Suo Lan smiled gently: "Sister Jinlan cares about the slaves and maids the most, and she sews the clothes for the slaves and maids with her own hands. It's the slave who is reluctant to wear it, and she doesn't want to spoil her sister's mind and such good materials. ”
Jin Lan walked in with rock sugar chrysanthemum tea, and all he saw was Suo Lan's gentle smile and the queen's generous concern. It seems that when Zhilan was there in the past, it was probably like this.
Feeling awkward, Jinlan carefully covered up his displeasure. Reason told her that Suo Lan was her sister-in-law, and if she could be appreciated by the queen's mother, she would inevitably follow suit. But she still couldn't help but be jealous, like a little insect crawling through her body sourly, resistance, disgust and even fear, entangled in her heart, difficult to be at peace.
There is an unsolvable question in my mind, why Suo Lan can talk with the queen like Zhilan and be extremely intimate. And I've been serving for a long time, but it's too late to be cautious?
As soon as Suo Lan saw the pale yellow chrysanthemum tea in the crystal pot, his smile became stronger: "The chrysanthemum tea brewed by my sister must have used the Baihang chrysanthemum that was paid tribute to the palace, right?" At first glance, you will know that the heart is melodious, and the taste is sweet. ”
"Hongu is just thirsty." Lan Xin smiled and took the chrysanthemum tea offered by Jinlan, and said with a smile: "I just said something for a while, and after a while, Chunhe will come to ask for peace, and I will have to talk for a while." ”
"Isn't it, I want to come to Lord Fucha in a while." Jinlan was finally able to catch up, looking at Suo Lan's pure smile, she suddenly felt a little guilty. Is it that the palace has been in the palace for a long time, and the palace has been in the palace for a long time, and his heart has imperceptibly accepted that set of conventional battles. "There are still some in the ear room, Niangniang has slaves and maids here to serve, Suo Lan, you can also go and rest for a while and drink some tea to moisten your throat."
"Pure concubine Niangniang is auspicious." The nurse of the elder brother is blessed with weakness, and the action stops at the point, without the slightest respect. On the contrary, the contempt in the lazy eyes in her throat just rightly expressed the ridicule in her heart, which was extremely perfunctory. "Aren't you unwell, why are you still coming to us under such a big sun. It is said that the autumn tiger and the autumn tiger, if the heat stroke is repeated, the slave really doesn't know what to do. If the queen mother blames her, won't she let the palace people in the elder brother can't eat and walk around. ”
Su Wanrong has never suffered such idleness, what is called a bald phoenix is not as good as a chicken, just look at her portrayal at the moment. "Thank you for your concern, although the palace is uncomfortable, I don't dare to neglect the queen's orders." Gently turned his head sideways, and motioned to Mama to look at the hundred quilts that Xue Lan was holding.
Raising her slightly smug eyebrows, Su Wanrong straightened her face, and said calmly: "The queen mother personally instructed the concubine to make a bed of 100 quilts for the eldest brother, and since it is ready, it naturally has to be sent quickly." Otherwise, if the eldest brother is delayed, it will be in vain for the mother's hard work, and the concubine will not be ashamed of the mother and live up to the mother's heart. This negligence cannot be afforded by the palace. It's not good to let Mama force it on you, right? ”
No matter how poor the pure concubine is, she is also a concubine, and it is also said that it is the queen's order...... In the face of such a neat and innocent concubine, Mama didn't dare to make things difficult anymore. Hurriedly turned his smiling face, flattering and pandering: "Look at the old slave's memory, patronizing and talking to Niangniang, and forgetting to invite Niangniang to taste tea, Niangniang, don't blame the slave." Please ...... inside. Inside please. ”
Xue Lan hated it so much that she really wanted to kick it on the belly of the grandmother, but the pure concubine was always smiling, and she shouldn't be this ugly person with her breath, so she had to endure it hard. I thought that the so-called dog eyes look down on people, and it is really suitable to describe this grandmother.
"Is Big Brother here?" Su Wanrong knew that at this time, the eldest brother must not have finished morning class yet, and he would definitely not be at the elder brother's office, but she deliberately asked. "Mama Lao asked the eldest brother to come over and take a look at the style of this quilt. If the eldest brother doesn't like it, the palace will have time to modify it. ”
Seeing the gentle and calm appearance of the pure concubine, Mama couldn't help muttering in her heart, only to say that she had offended the queen's mother, why did she act like she was nothing. Could it be a misinformation in the palace? But he didn't care, and said vigorously flattering: "Lao Niangniang, have you made this trip, it's good to send someone and let the slave maid pick it up in person." The eldest brother hasn't gotten out of morning class yet, and the mother has gone for nothing. ”
Looking at the folds piled up at the end of Mama's eyes, Su Wanrong was a little disgusted, but she was a little embarrassed: "I always have to see it in person to the eldest brother, so that the palace can rest assured." At that time, the queen mother asked, and finally had an explanation. Since this is safe, then the main palace will wait a little longer. ”
"Yes, yes, then bother the mother to wait a little longer. The slave will serve you tea. Mama smiled brightly, her round body was a little clumsy, but she walked very lightly, and retreated in three or two steps.
Seeing the figure walking away, Xue Lan lowered her voice and said: "Niangniang, she is so unkind to you, how can you swallow your anger as if you want to swallow your anger, show her a smile, hum, she is also worthy." ”
"Don't talk about that for now, make sure there's nothing wrong with what you asked?" Su Wanrong was imperative, and the anger in her heart pouted that she would have to do it. Although this method can't work for a while, she understands the truth of water drops and stones better than anyone else. No matter how tiny a needle is, it will always hurt when it pierces the heart. She didn't believe that the queen could bear it.
"Niangniang, the slave and maid are clear about it, and there will never be a mistake." Xue Lan looked outside the house and couldn't help but say, "The slave and maid go out to have a look, and if you see it, bring people in." ”
"Nope." Su Wanrong got up lightly and smiled and bent her eyebrows: "That's too deliberate." Well, you go pester that mama. Don't let her come back and get in the way. If the news is correct, Hongu is waiting here, and he will definitely be able to wait for him to come. Reaching out and taking the hundred quilts from Xue Lan's hand, the ice light in Su Wanrong's eyes could no longer be hidden. Go ahead. ”
It's not just the queen who does these small actions, as long as she has the heart, she must do it better than her. Su Wanrong held the Baijia quilt, stood at the door with great expectations, and saw the small figure she expected coming over from a distance. With a sigh of resentment, she decorated the color on her face more gently and considerately, and walked up to the figure.
"Pure Niangniang." Yonglian didn't expect to come back from practicing riding and shooting, and he met a pure concubine, and hurriedly and respectfully asked for peace.
"Second Brother." Su Wanrong's voice was very sweet, holding the quilt in one hand, but taking out a handkerchief with the other hand and handing it over: "You must have just come back from riding and shooting, look at your sweat, quickly wipe it." Otherwise, it will not be good to blow the wind and catch a cold. ”
Although she knew that Yonglian was not enough to gain insight into her sincerity, the brilliance under her eyes was still very well concealed, and Su Wanrong did not dare to relax at all.
