Chapter 41: The Song Clan with ulterior motives
"Prince Qiyu and Fourth Elder Brother, the meals are ready." Su Peisheng came over to report.
The prince had just talked to the fourth master about the place where he would fight at night, and when he saw that it was not long before it got dark, he said to the fourth master: "Go back to your own carriage and use it quickly, so that you can hurry." ”
The fourth master nodded, and then walked back to his carriage with Su Peisheng. The minions began to go to the makeshift quarters to bring food for their masters and themselves.
"Master, the slave is ready to sleep, and I will serve you to clean your face and hands." Su Peisheng said. He had already asked the little minion to carry the meal.
"Hmm. Later, you can ask why Zhang doesn't take the carriage and walks behind the carriage. "The fourth master has time to pay attention to this matter.
Su Peisheng responded, and after serving the fourth master to wash, he went to the back to ask the reason.
The fourth master was not very impressed by this Zhang family, but when he saw her walking with his subordinates, he wanted to ask what was going on.
The servant brought the meal, and the fourth master found that it was a familiar soup with the taste of beef, and suddenly remembered Xiao Fujin, who was already hundreds of miles away.
Not to mention, these things she made up are really useful, the fourth master is drinking rich and delicious beef soup while eating cakes, but it is much better than just eating dry food.
At that time, after Su Peisheng asked the reason for the Zhang family, he went back and forth to the fourth master.
"Motion sickness is a lot of trouble. Let Song take care of some. Or let her get into the carriage, it's really uncomfortable, you can get down and follow along. The fourth master said after listening to Su Peisheng's report.
At this moment, the master and servant of the Song family walked over. The fourth master looked at the delicate makeup on her face, obviously she had just been freshened up in the carriage.
"Master, the concubine will serve the master for dinner!" Song said delicately.
The fourth master looked at her like this, turned his head and said, "Everything is simple outside, and there is no need to serve." Zhang's is riding in the car with you, how can you let her walk alone below, you don't know how to take care of her? ”
Song was so choked up by the fourth master's sentence that he couldn't speak, so he had to say: "The concubine saw that Sister Zhang was uncomfortable, so she asked her to go down for a walk, which is more comfortable than sitting in the car." ”
"Well, then she'll take care of you. If you want to accompany the prince, you don't need to come and serve. If you don't have a call, you can stay in your own carriage. The fourth master didn't look at the Song family and said.
The Song family was so anxious that he couldn't cry, he originally planned to follow the fourth master out, and finally waited for an opportunity to contact the fourth master more, this is good, a Zhang family, actually let the master worry about it, and even let himself take care of her, a concubine!
The Song family endured the disappointment in his heart, saluted the fourth master, and then turned back.
And Wanyao is talking to Mama Tian about Li's pregnancy at the moment, and it is not appropriate to go to the Taiwo.
"It's better to let Mama Liu follow, so that Fujin can rest assured. Mama Liu is sent by Concubine De to take care of Li's biological grandmother, she is also very experienced, with her to take care of her, Li Gege should not have anything wrong. Mama Tian said.
Wanyao thought about it, yes, the princess invited her, and she let the Li family go by name, if she didn't let her go, she was afraid that it would cause the princess to misunderstand.
So, Wanyao sent someone to the Li family to spread the word, asking her to follow her to Yuqing Palace to enjoy the plum blossoms five days later.
In the days when the fourth master was away, Wanyao lived a very comfortable life, she didn't have to worry about anyone, she could get up whenever she wanted, she could eat whatever she wanted, and her life was very leisurely, so she didn't remember that the fourth master, who was hundreds of miles away, was following the Song family and the Zhang family.
Mama Tian saw that Wanyao lived a carefree life every day, and she didn't seem to miss the fourth master who was hundreds of miles away at all, which was really a little helpless.
Sometimes the little master is really like a child, and sometimes she is very assertive, which really makes her a little unable to see clearly.
Let's say that the Song family didn't have a chance to hook up with the fourth master again along the way, because Zhang's got motion sickness all the way to the waterway, and she began to get seasick again.
The Song family was tired enough, and she didn't dare to show it too obviously, after all, this was what the fourth master ordered her, if the fourth master knew that he didn't take care of the Zhang family, then his impression of himself would definitely be bad.
"Sister Song, thanks to you all this way, otherwise I would definitely not be able to walk." Zhang said to Song while lying on the bed.
It turned out that Zhang had been suffering from motion sickness, and now he was seasick, and he couldn't eat all the time, but in a few days, he lost weight.
The fourth master asked the accompanying imperial physician to prescribe medicine to Zhang, and asked Song to lead a few maids to take care of Zhang.
"You're welcome, we are all serving the master, and when we go out, we naturally have to take care of each other." Song said with the boredom in his heart.
The boat was monotonous, and no one in the Song family spoke, so they had to talk to this Zhang family from time to time in order to survive this boring water journey.
"Where is Sister Song from?" Zhang leaned against the bed and said.
"I'm from Yangzhou, and this time, I'm going to pass through there." Song said.
"Good place, the concubine has long heard that Yangzhou is one of the most lively places in the south of the Yangtze River. Sister Song wants to go back and take a look? Zhang said.
She is just a small official from a small background, and she is far away in the northwest, and I don't know why she fell into the eyes of Concubine De, and she was selected to be a concubine for the fourth master when she was selected.
Because her appearance is not very outstanding, and her temperament is not alive, she was basically forgotten by the fourth master, and it was really surprising for Zhang to come out this time. But I didn't expect this to come out, not only could I not serve the fourth master, but also became a burden. Song's care for himself made Zhang grateful. She now regards the Song family as her bosom sister.
"I'd like to go back and have a look, but I don't necessarily get there. We'll see if there's a chance to talk about it when the time comes. So where are you? Song sighed and asked casually.
"My hometown is Qinghai, thousands of miles away from here. I'm afraid that it will be impossible to go back and see it in this life. Zhang said.
"That's really far enough, if you don't go there, you really won't have a chance to go back." Song said.
Zhang was speechless, she herself was mediocre, she was afraid that she would have a chance to conceive the fourth master's child in this life. If you pass the youth again, I'm afraid it will be the end of the white-headed palace maid.
"Sister Song, the concubine really envies her sister for being so beautiful. It's not like I'm plain-looking. This time, I can come out to serve, and it really burns high incense. Zhang sighed.
Song was praised by Zhang's like this, and she was also happy in her heart, so she looked at Zhang's and knew that she was envious of her serving the fourth master, and she was indeed outstanding.
"Sister doesn't need to worry, this is my sister's opportunity, take care of your body, stay well, and serve your master." Song was happy for a while, so he persuaded like this.
