Chapter 32: The Concubine is Happy
Since cleaning up Ning Xuexi, the pair of uneasy and kind-hearted sisters and brothers have stopped for several days.
Ning Qiuyue also spent a few days in Ning Mansion and lived a stable life.
Her father still works at the Tai Hospital.
In the past few days, the bodies of the ladies in the harem are very good. Only Wan Guifei is there, and she still has to enter the palace every day to take a vein.
Late autumn is approaching.
With the cold air coming from the north, after a few cold winds blew, all parts of the palace began to prepare items for the winter.
The palace maid Haru Sakura came in from the outside with a delicate copper hand stove in both hands.
"Mother, what do you think this is?"
She happily held up the handstove and wiped the thick layer of ash off the outside of the handstove very carefully.
Concubine Wan was lazy and raised her eyes to take a look.
"It's still early to use it, why are you in a hurry to find it?"
Haruka doesn't think so, according to her experience in the two years since she entered the palace, winter in the north always comes earlier.
"Niangniang is a golden branch and jade leaf body, and she can't freeze at all. It is the duty of the minions to prepare early, otherwise it is time to eat the board carefully. ”
When she said this, she was clearly speaking to the other palace maids and eunuchs in the room.
"Where can I freeze, are you the only one working in the room?" Although Wan Guifei was angry, her face was happy, and she cast an approving glance at Chun Ying.
Rong Xi, the chief eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office who was standing with a bow, heard it with hot ears, obviously he didn't scold him, but he felt that he had been taught a hard lesson.
Holding back a breath of anger, I had to change my words.
"The queen mother has instructed that the treasury has been tight recently, and all palaces and places should reduce their expenditures. But Niangniang, you are now pregnant with a dragonborn, according to the rules of the ancestors, the monthly money should be increased by ......"
More? Where else can I add more!
Rongxi came on the order of the queen this time to inform Wan Guifei to deduct the monthly money.
But at this time, he didn't dare to offend Wan Guifei, let alone neglect the dragon seed in Wan Guifei's stomach.
Which is more important, he can still screw it clearly.
"Guifei Niangniang, the treasury is empty, and the matter of adding money ......"
Concubine Wan ignored him, and only cared about laughing with the personal palace maid Chun Ying.
"Look at this hand stove, it was sent to me by Imperial Doctor Ning last year. He said that my spleen is weak and my body is cold, and my hands and feet are the most cold in winter, so I need to be warm at all times. ”
Chun Ying nodded, "It's still Imperial Doctor Ning's careful heart, and the minions of the Internal Affairs Mansion don't have the eyesight to see it." ”
Rongxi was embarrassed: "This ......, didn't I order them to send several hand stoves to Niangniang?" A lot of nourishing herbs and new fox skins and otter skins were also sent. ”
Chun Ying: "Heh, you sent it after our mother was happy." ”
"Uh......"
Rong Xi couldn't stand still, he felt as if he was being roasted in a fire, and he was very uncomfortable.
"Guifei Niangniang, the slave really can't be the master of money. Recently, however, there are still a lot of coal from previous years, cotton from Xinjiang, and some jade pearls left in the Ministry of Internal Affairs...... I'll go back and ask the little ones to look for it, and they'll all be delivered to your house tomorrow." ”
"Whatever you want, I'm tired."
Wan Guifei raised her eyebrows, waved her hand, and sent Rongxi away.
