Chapter 20: Waiting for the Summons
"Thank you Grandpa He for coming to tell me."
"The little master is polite, then you can prepare first, and the slave will retire."
"Xiaoluzi, send Grandpa He out."
"Yes!"
After sending away this father-in-law He, Chun Qi immediately came to Lin Wanyi's side and said coquettishly.
"How is the little lord going to dress up today? Slaves and maidservants serve you. ”
In her opinion, the little master is too plain, and he is plain on weekdays, but today is a big day to sleep, and he still has to dress up well.
Even if you go to the Qian'an Palace, you still have to bathe and freshen up, it doesn't prevent you from cleaning up beautifully now.
"You have my hair tied, and as for my clothes, wear that white dress embroidered with butterflies and flowers."
Chunqi frowned and thought about it, would it still be a little more plain, but they didn't bring many clothes to the palace this time, and the position they promised was also low, and the palace clothes they sent were all according to the grade, so it was impossible to stand out too much.
I had to nod and look for clothes, and at the same time asked Cheyenne to prepare warm water, and she wanted to comb the little master's hair.
Chunqi's hair twisting skills are first-class and good, she learned from an old woman when she was at home, although she is happy, but her hands are very skillful.
It's like cooking, you just need to look at it once to get an idea.
also studied several hairstyles that are more suitable for Lin Wanyi, and the details are carefully hidden.
Lin Wanyi closed her eyes and let her take care of it, but what she was thinking about was this bedtime.
During this time, when she went to Lintoe Palace to ask for peace, Concubine Lin Guifei left her alone.
The words are all about asking her to cherish this hard-won grace, otherwise she will become a passerby in the harem, and her life will not be so comfortable.
Regarding whether she can be favored, Lin Guifei is much more anxious than her.
But she can't control the emperor's thoughts, and it's the emperor's own business to announce who serves the bed, and it's useless for her to be in a hurry.
So I had to shift my attention to Lin Wanyi.
I don't know if this time is related to Lin Guifei, she is so eager to be favored by herself, the purpose is for the sake of the child.
Thinking of the child, Lin Wanyi was worried.
glanced at Cheyenne and saw that she quickly understood.
walked to the cabinet where the medicine was placed, took out a small pill, put it in warm water to melt, and handed it to Lin Wanyi.
"Little master, it's time to take medicine after dinner."
"Hmm."
After looking up, Lin Wanyi's worried mind weakened slightly.
When she freshened up and dressed up, Cheng'en soft sedan chair also came, picked her up and went towards the Qian'an Palace, which everyone yearned for.
It's still the same rule, after bathing in the water, she changed into a new palace dress, and was sent to the inner hall by Mama Si Xuan, still sitting next to the table of the eight immortals.
This time, she ate two pieces of white jade cake before she came, and she was very full.
I was still thinking about the rules that Si Yu said in my mind, but I saw Dong Yuzhong walking in, followed by a group of eunuchs.
Lin Wanyi got up and looked a little curious.
Dong Yuzhong took a step forward and spoke.
"Your Majesty still has some government affairs to deal with, it will take about half an hour, I am afraid that the little lord will be hungry, so I specially ordered the imperial dining room to make some delicious meals and send them, and the little lord will eat first."
"Gonggong Dong is polite, Your Majesty...... Did he have dinner? ”
"Little master, don't worry, the minions have already been served."
"That'll be fine."
Otherwise, the king of a country has not yet eaten, how dare she make a small promise.
It's just that she had eaten the white jade cake just now, and now she couldn't move the chopsticks when she looked at the dishes on the table.
Seeing her hesitation, Dong Yuzhong asked good-naturedly.
"The little lord doesn't like these?"
"No, it's just ...... I just ate some pastries before I came, and now I'm not hungry. ”
Dong Yuzhong smiled, as the chief manager who had served the emperor for the longest time, he had guessed the emperor's thoughts accurately.
What's more, a promise who has just entered the palace is like a transparent person in front of him.
"The little lord doesn't need to be restrained, Your Majesty has been busy dealing with the reports of the previous dynasty these days, and he rarely summons the ladies of the harem, you are still the first one to come."
It seems that what he said was deliberately for Lin Wanyi.
There has been no one to serve for a few days, and it seems that this Ninety-Five Supreme is not so easy to serve.
"Thank you Gonggong Dong for mentioning it, the concubine will serve Your Majesty well."
It is probably related to Lin Wanyi's temperament, and Dong Gonggong can see her difference at a glance.
The concubines in this harem are either to enter the palace for the family, or to fight for the prince and princess, so every time they go to bed, they try their best to attract the emperor's attention.
She is always faint, and she has never seen her bend to greet her, but she can make people feel like a spring breeze.
It was as if you could relax by her side.
The smile in his eyes became more and more obvious, and Gonggong Dong said respectfully to Lin Wanyi.
"The little master sits for a while, what is there to call Qiu Ming at the door, he is the apprentice of the minion, and he has been serving in this hall for several years, and the minion has to rush back to His Majesty to serve, so he won't stay long."
"Don't worry, Gonggong Dong, please inform Your Majesty that state affairs are important."
"Yes. The minions retired. ”
When Dong Yuzhong left, he deliberately glanced at Qiu Ming at the door, who looked like a young little eunuch, but he looked much more stable.
After all, he is a person who serves in front of the emperor, so he naturally has the ability to see the six ways and listen to the eight directions.
Gonggong Dong is gone, and she is the only one left in this inner hall.
Facing a table of delicacies, Lin Wanyi still lifted chopsticks in the end.
It is made according to His Majesty's taste, light and tender.
There are three fresh stews in it, Lin Wanyi used more of them, and the rest was just a taste.
Four dishes and one soup, there are still a lot left when they are taken away.
Waste is a real waste, but she doesn't dare to put more beaks.
After cleaning her hands and mouth, Mama Si brought a cup of rose dew, and drank it to moisten her throat, and she could get rid of the taste of food in her mouth.
After all, Lin Wanyi didn't come here to eat, and sleeping was the top priority.
So, like Wang Baochuan who was guarding the cold kiln, he sat on a mahogany round stool and waited.
Half an hour, not long, not short.
Lin Wanyi felt that she was sitting a little sleepy, and only then did she hear some hurried footsteps outside.
He immediately woke up, patted his cheek lightly with his hand, and then stood up and waited for the emperor's arrival.
This is the second time she has seen the emperor, and she still remembers the rules, but this time she is less shy than last time, but a little calmer.
"The concubine, please be safe to the emperor."
"Well, get up."
It was the low, round voice again, revealing a little tiredness.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The last time she lowered her head, she didn't see much of what the emperor looked like, and she was eaten and wiped clean.
