Chapter 19 Congratulations
For a while, Chuxiu Palace was very lively, and Concubine Qin Xian personally brought the palace maid over to congratulate, but she didn't see Gu Guifei coming. And then, Cheng Jieyu also came, followed by Qiu Ronghua, another of the nine concubines, and needless to say, everyone in Chuxiu Palace also sent congratulatory gifts.
Chen Qingxuan also ordered Yuehe to take out two golden hairpins, two pairs of gold silk entangled hibiscus bracelets, held the plums, and went over to congratulate them together. Zhang Linlin's room is naturally very lively.
Therefore, when Chen Qingxuan passed, he heard someone laugh and said, "Isn't this another one?"
Chen Qingxuan looked up, but it was Wang Yuhong, although she was smiling on her face, there was an indescribable disgust hidden in the corners of her eyes, she couldn't figure it out, she was an impostor, yes, but she didn't provoke her Wang Yuhong, nor did she hinder Wang Yuhong's interests, why did she hate herself so much? Is it because of the genuine Chen Qingxuan?
"I've seen Mrs. Chenyi!" Chen Qingxuan ignored Wang Yuhong and respectfully saluted Zhang Linlin.
"Sister doesn't need to be polite!" Zhang Linlin's tone was very indifferent.
"Thank you, ma'am!" Chen Qingxuan got up and said with a smile, "Knowing that Mrs. was promoted, Chen sent a small thing as a gift, and asked Mrs. not to abandon it." ”
"My sister doesn't know, this palace is rising today, and all congratulatory gifts will not be accepted!" Zhang Linlin looked at the brocade box opened by Meizi, just glanced at it, and shook her head lightly.
Chen Qingxuan just smiled, if she didn't accept it, she wouldn't accept it, and she wasn't ready to beg her for anything.
"My sister is very happy today, and she has won the honor of Your Majesty, and she will take her little sister and others in the future!" Wang Yuhong covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and chuckled.
That Zhang Linlin still had an indifferent expression, and smiled softly: "My sister is too modest in what she said, you are all like flowers and jade, and you will naturally be deeply favored by Longen in the future, how can this palace be comparable?" Not to mention the words with a mouthful. ”
Chen Qingxuan heard Zhang Linlin's polite words, but the implication was still to reject people thousands of miles away, since she did not accept congratulatory gifts or solicit everyone, she was also interested, and immediately got up and said goodbye: "Madame is going to move to Jinghua Palace later, I want to be very busy, Chen will not bother!" ”
"It's okay, please come to Jinghua Palace in the future!" Zhang Linlin said lightly, "Jasmine, send Chen Meiren!" ”
A little palace maid hurriedly walked out and sent her out, here Chen Qingxuan said goodbye, Wang Yuhong also said goodbye, and helped her girl to go back, but the congratulatory gift in her girl's hand was not brought out with her.
Chen Qingxuan went outside, looked at Meizi still holding the brocade box, her face was a little sneering, and she immediately smiled: "Little hoof, what are you doing not be happy?" ”
"Beauty, do you think Mrs. Chenyi dislikes our congratulatory gifts too simply?" Meizi asked in a low voice.
"I don't think so!" Chen Qingxuan smiled indifferently, if this Zhang Linlin disliked the simplicity of the congratulatory gift and did not accept it, then this Zhang Linlin would not be easy to mess around in this harem in the future.
"I looked at Wang Meiren's congratulatory gift, and she accepted it!" As Meizi spoke, she glanced around vigilantly and whispered, "I didn't see her girl come out with a congratulatory gift." ”
"The Zhang family and the Zhenguo family have always been good friends!" Chen Qingxuan said that the clouds are light and light, so the relationship between Zhang Linlin and Wang Yuhong is naturally different from others.
However, what Zhang Linlin did yesterday made Chen Qingxuan a little chilled, she knew that Wang Yuhong and Zhang Linlin could be regarded as close friends of the boudoir, both of them were big families in the capital, and the two families had family contacts, Zhang Linlin's father was the prime minister of the dynasty, and Wang Yuhong was the family of the prince for generations, and they were the real family members.
But yesterday's incident, Wang Yuhong was also involved, ethics, Zhang Linlin was invited by Liang Yamei, and she should stand up and say a word to Wang Yuhong.
However, she actually refused? I don't know if Wang Yuhong knows it or not?
Thinking of this, Chen Qingxuan sighed softly, that Zhang Linlin's nature was very arrogant, although she kept calling them "sisters", but she was a "palace", this holy decree had just been issued, and the canonization ceremony had not yet been held, she was so proud? No matter what Wang Yuhong says, she is also her close boudoir.
"Besides, I can't get anything more expensive!" Chen Qingxuan smiled bitterly, Mrs. Wang has always looked at her unpleasantly, and she didn't have any valuable jewelry to marry into the Chen family, this time she impersonated Chen Qingxuan to enter the palace, Mrs. Wang gave a little money and Yuehe, but it was two thousand taels of silver, which was really not enough.
As for clothes and jewelry, that is, a few commonly used gold hairpins and jade rings, and a few sets of washed clothes, which are ordinary and tight. In fact, she was even a little worried, if someone was promoted one after another, she would take jewelry as a congratulatory gift, and in the end, would she still have jewelry that she could take out to fill the scene?
Meizi followed behind her, just smiling, and Chen Qingxuan had already walked to her room.
As soon as she walked to the door, she saw Zhou Yi standing on tiptoe, standing in the corner and waving at her, Chen Qingxuan was stunned, Zhou Yi followed Liang Yamei, why was she the only one here today? Although she was puzzled, Chen Qingxuan whispered to Meizi to go back first, and then walked towards Zhou Yi.
"Sister-" Zhou Yi stood in the corner, her head lowered, looking like a child who had done something wrong.
"What's wrong?" Chen Qingxuan asked puzzled.
"That Zhang Meiren - uh, no, it's Mrs. Chenyi who didn't accept my congratulatory gift!" Zhou Yi said worriedly.
"Confiscate it, confiscate it, it's not a strange thing!" Chen Qingxuan smiled, what else should have happened to her, it turned out that it was because of this?
"However, she accepted Sister Liang's congratulatory gift!" Zhou Yi said in a low voice, "Sister, I asked Sister Liang, and Sister Liang said that it may be that my congratulatory gift is simple, so-"
"How so?" When Chen Qingxuan heard this, she was busy comforting Zhou Yi and said, "Mrs. Chenyi didn't accept my congratulatory gifts, forget it, it's okay!" said in his mouth, but it was strange in his heart, Liang Yamei and Zhang Linlin were not in harmony, and even quarreled, this Zhang Linlin was promoted to Mrs. Chenyi, Liang Yamei was in the face or in the heart, it is reasonable to go to congratulate, and Zhang Linlin If everyone accepts the congratulatory gifts, accepting her naturally means that they are happy and do not mention the mustard in the past.
However, Zhang Linlin picked someone to receive a congratulatory gift, but why did she accept Liang Yamei's congratulatory gift? Is it really as Liang Yamei said, their congratulatory gifts are too simple?
"Really?" When Zhou Yi heard this, her face was full of disbelief, and she whispered for a while, "But what I heard said that if you want Your Majesty's favor, you need to spend money to deal with Your Majesty's cronies, either the currently favored concubine, or the powerful father-in-law, I don't know how to deal with it, sister ......" said, she couldn't help but pull Chen Qingxuan's hand.
