"Yes, of course. This is the gift that I want to give to the emperor tomorrow, of course, I have to block the palace of this palace, is it possible that tomorrow I want the emperor to tell everyone that this gift is a gift from the palace, isn't that too fake? ”

Xiaorou listened to her mother's preaching, but the tension in her heart still did not ease. As soon as she saw such a large and complete jade, she felt that her heart was panicking. To say that she has been by Jiang Xinyu's side for a long time, she has seen many things that should be seen.

But as long as it is a big exaggeration and a complete exaggeration of jade.

In addition, Xiaorou is a worrying person, so of course she will be worried. I don't dare to appreciate such a beautiful work of art, because I am afraid that one will damage it if I am not careful. But in fact, where can it be so easy to break.

Shaoqing on the side was much calmer, although the exclamation in her eyes could still show her liking and pity for this thing, but it would not be like Xiaorou.

"Sister Xiaorou, don't worry, the things you are worried about will not happen nine times out of ten. Think about how strict the security measures in our Niangniang Palace are. Ordinary people can't even enter this room, they can't touch this anymore. Where is it so easy to damage this? She turned left and right, and found that the carving was really good, and the craftsmanship was natural.

The more she said this, the more worried Xiao Rou became, so Xiao Rou's imagination was fully opened. "Will there be that kind of person on the rivers and lakes, and then accept other people's money, just come to Niangniang to destroy this gift?"

"No, it won't." Shaoqing is sure. "It's impossible for that kind of person to enter the palace to make trouble, right, the emperor's birthday, the strength of this guard has increased several times compared to before. You're just fooling around. ”

"Hey, sis. The slave is worried. Now the slave maid wants to do the most is to let tomorrow hurry up, although the slave also likes this thing, but send it out quickly to feel at ease. Xiao Rou saw that Shaoqing didn't understand her thoughts, so she confided in her master.

"You two are all supported by me, right, this thing was secretly handed over to the Zhuo Mansion, and then the Zhuo Mansion handed it over to the palace. The other people in the palace probably don't know what I'm preparing for, where so many things will happen. You just need to prepare everything that the palace will use tomorrow, and other things are not something you should worry about. Of course she didn't want to. Worry about it, let Nangong Tian worry about it. She wondered what he would think of her birthday present in front of everyone.

"Yes, sissy."

However, when it came to the things to be used tomorrow, Shaoqing thought of Mama Rong,

"Niangniang, is it necessary to settle the things that Mama Rong picked out?"

Jiang Xinyu pondered for a while and decided. "Set the clothes that Mama Rong chose, and you can look at the jewelry, after all, you are the people around me and the people who are most familiar with me. What I liked. Get used to what to wear, you have an idea. Just give me a final look. ”

"Yes, sissy."

Jiang Xinyu once again carefully appreciated this nominal gift for herself, and found that this craftsmanship was really not covered. I like it in my heart, thinking about whether I can often appreciate it after giving it to Nangong Tian.

This family is happy and that family is sad. Jiang Xinyu has a relaxed atmosphere here, but Concubine Li and Concubine Yue are not.

Concubine Li, she was completely defeated by reality. It's really too serious to step on the high and low in the palace. Today's meal, Concubine Li just looks like she has no appetite, is this still what she should eat as a concubine. This clear soup is watery, and there is no oil at all. Even the rice can be seen to be obviously different from the previous one. This and this, obviously even the palace maid is not as good as eating.

In addition to the issue of treatment, there is also the preparation of gifts for Nangong Tian. She has lost power now, where can she be able to give a gift on the table. But if she didn't prepare a gift, then she would have no chance to return to her original position.

Two troubles bothered her, making her body, which was already emaciated because of the treatment, even thinner. The whole person has also changed from the previous pungency to the current look thin.

There is also the letter that was secretly sent to King Rong, which is indeed gone forever. What the hell should she do, she was desperate.

Also troubled is Concubine Yue. Concubine Yue is naturally not as miserable as Concubine Li, with the Queen Mother here, no one dares to snub her. Naturally, the gifts are also carefully prepared. But her annoyance is that she doesn't know what Concubine Xue is going to give, and whether she can surpass her in gifts. Pull back a game in front of Nangong Tian.

Concubine Yue prepared a picture of the original handwriting of a calligrapher and painter in the previous dynasty. The name of this calligrapher is Wang Zuyi, and this authentic painting has also been left in the family of Concubine Yue for a long time. At first, it was the elders of the family who were wandering outside, and they inadvertently pocketed this authentic handiwork. At first, I thought it was fake, because Wang Zuyi's fakes on the market were not ordinary, and Wang Guyi himself was indeed a genuine one.

Many literati admire Wang Zuyi's calligraphy, and many people who live in seclusion in the mountains and forests will often go out of the mountains and forests because of Wang Zuyi's authentic works, which is actually a bargaining chip for Concubine Yue. It's hard to guarantee that this authentic painting can get a rare talent for Nangong Tian. Isn't that her credit?

Concubine Yue looked at the font spread out in front of her, the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing, and felt that these literati were also strange, such a chaotic thing could also be regarded as a treasure. However, thinking that these treasures will eventually become their own interests, I feel a little more confident in my heart.

In the Ciyang Palace, the Queen Mother is also making final preparations for tomorrow.

"Queen Mother, since all this has been arranged, let's rest and rest today, you have lost a lot of weight for the emperor's birthday in the past few days, this is much more powerful than when you were in Sanqing Temple." Mama Rong looked at the Queen Mother and felt distressed. Because it was not easy to arrange such a birthday for his son with his own hands. That's not even if you have to give it your all. And it's hard work in the process. In the process of doing this, I don't feel anything, and I feel happy in my heart. But as soon as it was over, it was obvious that he was tired. Mama Rong can clearly see the dark circles under the Queen Mother's eyes. It means that I haven't slept well for these things in the past few days.

"What is emaciated, as long as I think that I can arrange it with my own hands, I won't take it to heart what kind of hardship and tiredness I have. Mama, you know uh. I'm doing this to compensate that kid. I just hope he can forgive me soon. ”

"Niangniang, the emperor will definitely know what you have done, and when the emperor sees the arrangement tomorrow, he will understand Niangniang's thoughts. I won't be alienated anymore. ”

"I just wish he wouldn't put me in the enemy's range."

"Niangniang, you should be relieved, the emperor will know. What about you now, you should rest and rest now, take good care of your body, you are no better than those concubines now, you can't treat your body like this anymore, okay. Mama Rong felt that she was enough, worrying about which period this master had gone through, and now she had to worry about it. Maybe this family is not a worry-free person.

"Well, everything is done, I also want to rest, although I said that I am not tired or tired for the sake of the emperor, but I am still old in the end. Can't compare to them. The Queen Mother said with a smile. She also wants to have a good rest now, because her son will see his results tomorrow, the fruits of his efforts, and she is looking forward to the first smile he will give her.

"But it's really sure that Concubine Xue's child is not pregnant?" Speaking of Jiang Xinyu's question, the Queen Mother's language revealed a faint disappointment, she actually really hoped that such a happy event would come out.

"Uh-huh. The harem has regular check-ups, and the slave maid went to the hospital to check it out just in case, and Concubine Xue didn't have those symptoms. It's a shame. ”

"Well, there has never been similar news in the palace, and I don't know if those women are not angry or the emperor doesn't want to have a prince so early." From another point of view, the Queen Mother just did not doubt the ability of her outdated children.

"Niangniang, you see how old the emperor is now, at this time, it is okay for the emperor to have an heir, after all, he is still young. Don't worry so much. ”

When it comes to the issue of heirs, the Queen Mother is rarely a little dissatisfied with Nangong Tian.

"He's really not young at this age, and the average person of his age, the child is about to be eight or nine years old. He hasn't moved any yet, and there's never been any news, what the hell is going on. The queen mother's heart is also depressed, the emperor has no heirs for so long, she is not doubting her son's ability, but she feels that the women in the harem should basically drink the soup of avoiding children. The longer you want to go to bed, the worse your health will be. Recently, Nangong Tian has no plans to draft girls on a large scale, so he can't add other fresh people at all. Then it's most likely that it's the new Snow Princess. The Queen Mother was able to suspect that Jiang Xinyu had the possibility of pregnancy so quickly, and it was also based on this.

"The emperor's affairs should be his own ideas, Niangniang, don't interfere again and cause the emperor's impression of you to be lower. After all, no matter how low it is, I don't know when I will be able to come back. ”

Of course, the Queen Mother also knows. It's just that as a woman in her forties, her desire to be a grandmother is also very strong. She felt that it was good for her to be able to keep her children by her side while she was still young.
