Chapter 966: Making a wedding dress for her
"How do you know that I am a concubine, but my sister who was drafted with me was not selected, but I stayed. The eldest lady of the family makes things difficult for my mother, who is just a concubine, every day, and beats and scolds me everywhere......"
Jiang Yao had never experienced this feeling, she didn't even have the memory of the emperor's sister, Shangguan Yan told her that it was because the emperor's death was too big a blow for her, so she didn't remember.
"So for the sake of my mother and for myself, I have to climb to a high position and support my mother. You must look down on someone like me who is born humble, and thinks about clinging to the powerful and vying for glory. ”
Jiang Yao just wanted to go back and explain a few words, when she saw Meng Meiren had already walked out of the door, she sighed deeply, it turns out that everyone has a last resort, some people are for money and some people are for power, and what are they for......
On the long street in the palace, Lanzhi took a bag of meager monthly money received from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and walked back with a cushion in her hand, and was looked at by Jiaxiu, she immediately stepped forward and walked from the opposite side, and deliberately bumped into Lanzhi's shoulder.
"Oops, this is the one who doesn't have long eyes."
Lanzhi was just about to return the favor, but when he saw that it was Jiaxiu in the palace of Concubine Wan, he immediately leaned over and said tremblingly: "I'm sorry, Aunt Jiaxiu, it's me who didn't see my aunt, Lanzhi should be damned......"
Jiaxiu took the silk handkerchief, swept her shirt that had been knocked over, and glanced at Laneige, looking at the money bag she was holding in her hand, which was not enough for her to go out for a cup of tea.
"Just this little bit of a month, you Meng Meiren can also live, it's really tenacious."
Lanzhi got angry when she thought of this, obviously she could still receive five hundred taels a month according to the monthly rule, but later Wan Guifei said that she would follow the example of the Dragon Queen to advocate frugality, and forcibly halved the monthly price of these low-ranking concubines.
Later, he said that he wanted to help the peasants, supported the new deal, and cut it in half, and now he can only get 100 taels. Meng Meiren's clothes are all very old, except for those distributed by the palace, there is nothing new there.
"Our Meng Meiren have a low status, and we are not as good as the concubine Niangniang, who is prominent and deeply favored by the saints."
Laneige rolled his eyes to the side, and Jiaxiu snorted even more arrogantly, shaking the silk handkerchief in his hand, revealing the jade bracelet on his wrist, which made Laneige's eyes look at it intently.
"Being an errand boy next to Concubine Wan Gui Niangniang, it's just a little good, it's this kind of gadget, you can't pick it up and wear it endlessly."
Lanzhi looked at it and swallowed his saliva and said, "I am also a slave, how can I have such a good life as Aunt Jiaxiu." ”
Jiaxiu stared at Laneige's expression, took off the bracelet on his hand, dangled it in front of Laneige, and then lifted Laneige's wrist and put the bracelet on Laneige's thin wrist.
"Auntie, no, Laneige can't stand ......"
"Look, isn't this there, it's a simple matter, as long as you are sincere to Concubine Wan in the future, there will be more benefits in the future."
Lanzhi's eyes widened suddenly, and he touched the jade jade bracelet with his hand, which was worth thousands of taels of silver, so he gave her a maidservant? She looked at Jiaxiu with sincere fear, wanting to take it off but reluctant to ......
"Wan Guifei Niangniang, I want to ...... It's not easy for Laneige to break the palace rules......"
Jiaxiu also stopped selling Guanzi, took her hand and said: "It's very simple, Concubine Wan is kind and talkative, so naturally she won't embarrass you." I heard that there is one more person in your Xiulan Garden, all you have to do is keep an eye on her, and whoever goes to see her and says what she does, you have to report it to me one by one. ”
Laneige was stunned, she simply stared at Jiang Yao, and she didn't target Meng Meiren, she was not the backer, so this bracelet was too cheap.
"Laneige will definitely serve Concubine Wan wholeheartedly."
Jiaxiu raised her eyebrows proudly, and Laneige immediately whispered to Jiaxiu about the emperor's letter to Jiang Yao. Jiaxiu's face became jealous, she was really afraid of something, so she sent Laneige away, and went back to Penglai Hall to report to Concubine Wan.
When Concubine Wan heard this, her eyebrows and eyes were gloomy, her face was full of murder, she slapped her hand on the table, and looked at the phoenix crown and xia curtain in her hand.
"I warned her a long time ago, she is supposed to be a palace maid, but she is still thinking of ways to seduce the emperor, do you still want to climb on my head?"
"Niangniang, it's better for us to take advantage of her weakness and solve it, the province has a lot of long nights and dreams."
Concubine Wan Guifei listened to Jiaxiu's brainless words, and she was even more angry, "Now that we are staring at Xiulan Yuan, the emperor will naturally send someone to keep an eye on her, do you want to do something to her, are you afraid that you are impatient?" ”
"That...... We can't sit still, now the emperor wants to give her a throne, this is ......"
"Hmph, even if the emperor is willing to give it, she may not dare to ask for it!"
Wan Guifei's eyebrows were deep, and she turned around and walked to the bed in the twilight, disappearing into the darkness.
The next day, Concubine Wan Guifei carried the boiled decoction, and Jiaxiu carried the phoenix crown and Xia curtain, and walked into the main hall together. Duan Jingyan was sitting on the bed with something written in his hand, and when he saw Concubine Wan coming, he immediately took the book and covered it.
Concubine Wan smiled knowingly, and presented the decoction to Duan Jingyan, "Your Majesty, look at your complexion much better than a few days ago." ”
"I really feel that my body is getting better, I can't imagine that Zhang Yan's medical skills in the past few years have been refined to such an extent, this time he is attentive, and in a few days, I will go to the court and promote him to the position of academician of Tai Hospital."
Duan Jingyan took the decoction, drank it in one gulp, and then handed the bowl to Concubine Wan, who took it and changed it to a glass of mint water and served him to rinse his mouth.
"This time, Imperial Physician Zhang has indeed made great contributions, and the concubines also feel that the position of academician is well deserved."
Duan Jingyan took the scroll on the side and didn't say more, but Concubine Wan kept standing by the bed and refused to leave, his eyes widened, and he asked coldly, "What's the matter?"
Concubine Wan listened to the indifference in his words, and she was not annoyed, she still had a smile like a flower, and waved her hand to Jiaxiu behind her. Jiaxiu walked up, holding a golden phoenix crown.
The golden satin, with colorful embroidery threads, embroidered with lifelike colors, especially on the phoenix crown, the walnut-sized night pearl, brilliant. Even in daytime, you can see the dazzling eye.
"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has sent a phoenix crown and a xiaxia veil, is the emperor still satisfied with it? The concubine felt that Miss Jiang was usually too plain, and the crown robe after this seal should be grand. ”
Duan Jingyan raised his eyebrows and looked over, the phoenix crown was very exquisite, and it was eye-catching, especially the pearl of the night, but it was the only one in the treasure house. It's very valuable, and just that one can be exchanged for a few cities.
"Well, you're careful, let this out."
Wan Guifei listened to a dry smile on her face, blessed her body, and walked out, she carefully closed the door of the palace, and when she turned around and walked back, her face could no longer hold back.
She really gave a wedding dress for others, and the wedding dress was prepared for her by the Dragon Queen, and the embroidery girls of the Internal Affairs Office did it for two years, but now that it is done, it was snatched away by a little-known Jiang Yao.
She sent it over respectfully, but in exchange for the emperor's words, she was attentive.
