The more Celestia spoke, the quieter her voice became, and it was almost inaudible in the back, but it was enough for everyone to figure out the real reason why Celestia fell into the water.

Concubine Jing opened her mouth in disbelief: "Yun'er, are you saying that you secretly ran to the lake by yourself, and you wanted to pick the lotus flowers in the lake before you accidentally fell into the lake?" ”

The eldest princess looked at Concubine Jing's frosty face, carefully pulled her sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Mother, Yun'er knows that she is wrong. ”

Concubine Jing wanted to get angry, but looking at the timidity of the eldest princess's eyes, she couldn't bear it, so she had to transfer her anger to the palace maid who was serving the eldest princess: "What are you eating?" The master is still young and ignorant, don't you know how to stop it? ”

"I don't know how to stop it, you don't know how to take care of your master when you follow your master to the lake, and if your master falls into the water, you can only shout by the lake, what's the use of asking for such a slave?"

The palace maid beside the eldest princess was already frightened at this time, and when she heard Concubine Jing's scolding, she just admitted her mistake and begged for mercy, "The slave is wrong, the mother spares her life." ”

The queen saw that the matter was clear, and said: "Concubine Jing, since the matter has been asked clearly, you should hurry up and take the eldest princess back to the palace to clean up, she has been frightened today, you as a concubine should comfort her." ”

Concubine Jing glanced at the eldest princess, suppressed her anger, and said to Luo Chengjing and the queen: "Then the concubine will retire with Yun'er first." ”

"Hmm." The queen answered, and after Concubine Jing took the eldest princess away, she glanced at Lu Yuning, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said, "Lu Meiren, you should also hurry back and change your clothes." ”

Lu Yuning kowtowed to Luo Chengjing and the queen, and said, "The concubine has retired." ”

Lu Yuning stood up and was just about to leave, Luo Chengjing looked at her embarrassed appearance, and suddenly said: "As far as I know, Concubine Jing seems to have felt sorry for you more than once, why did you not hesitate to save the eldest princess when she fell into the water?" ”

Lu Yuning thought to herself that she was not hesitating, she actually hesitated before deciding to save it.

But that can't be said like this.

Lu Yuning's mind turned, and he said respectfully: "Although there is some quarrel between the concubine and Concubine Jing, there is no deep hatred. ”

"Besides, even if there is any deep hatred between the concubine and Concubine Jing, it is also a grudge between the concubine and Concubine Jing, if it is Concubine Jing who falls into the water today, the concubine may consider whether to save it, but the eldest princess is just a child, she has never hurt me, so what does all this have to do with her? Why should the concubines be angry with her? ”

Luo Chengjing glanced at Lu Yuning deeply, sneered, and said, "You are sincere." ”

Lu Yuning lowered her head and said, "The concubines don't dare to deceive the emperor. ”

Luo Chengjing waved his hand: "Okay, go back." ”

Lu Yuning saluted Luo Chengjing and the queen again, and then left with Qingzhi and Qingdai.

In the Linglong Pavilion, Zhou Man and the others were shocked when they saw Lu Yuning coming back soaking wet like this, Zhou Man came up and asked Qing Dai in a low voice: "Master, what's wrong?" ”

Qing Dai shook her head and said, "It's okay, the master is just to save people, don't ask more, hurry up and prepare water, let the master bathe and change clothes first." ”

"Hey, I'll go." Zhou Man responded and immediately went to arrange it.

Under the service of Qingzhi and Qingdai, Lu Yuning took a comfortable bath, changed into dry clothes, and sat on the soft couch while Qingzhi helped her wipe her hair while listening to her chatter.

"Fortunately, the weather is hot now, otherwise the master will have to catch a cold this toss, and the master will not be so impulsive next time, and he will ignore himself in order to save people."

Qing Dai nodded in agreement, "That's it, the key is that the master obviously saved the eldest princess, Concubine Jing didn't appreciate it and doubted the master, she knew that the master shouldn't care about it." ”

Lu Yuning said with a smile when she heard this: "It's her business that Concubine Jing doesn't appreciate it, it's good that I have a clear conscience, if I don't save the eldest princess today, something happens to the eldest princess, and I will have a bad conscience." ”

And she saved the eldest princess today, no matter whether Concubine Jing appreciates it or not, Concubine Jing will have to think about it before she wants to embarrass herself in the future.

If she still finds fault with herself for no reason in the future, as before, then she doesn't want her reputation.

Save the eldest princess today, and it is worth it for Concubine Jing to no longer be angry with her after she can be replaced.

What's more, there may be more than that, it would be better if the emperor could no longer be angry with her because of what she said at the end.

In the afternoon, Lu Yuning woke up from a nap, and Qingzhi came to tell her that Concubine Jing sent someone to send a thank you gift.

Lu Yuning saw the palace maid beside Concubine Jing, asked a few words about the situation of the eldest princess, and thanked Concubine Jing before sending the person out.

Qing Dai looked at the thank you gift sent by Concubine Jing, and said with satisfaction: "It's not thin, and the bare fabric is worth a lot of silver." ”

Qingzhi sent people in, and when she heard Qing Dai's words, she glared at Qing Dai angrily, and said, "You are also from the Hou Mansion, and you are not the kind of person who has never seen the world, why do you look like you have fallen into the eyes of money?" Opening and closing your mouth is silver, and you don't feel ashamed of your master? ”

Qing Dai stuck out her tongue and said, "Isn't this the palace where money is used everywhere, so I think of silver when I see everything now." ”

When Lu Yuning heard this, he opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Although silver is needed everywhere in the palace, our silver is definitely enough, Qingdai, you can rest assured, don't worry about the lack of silver that day." ”

When Lu Yuning entered the palace, Tao gave her several large silver tickets, all of which Tao originally saved to buy her a dowry.

Although the daughter of the Hou Mansion will give a dowry when she marries, the dowry prepared by the public will not be too rich, Tao himself has the Zhuangzi and the shop to dowry, and there is also a lot of income in his hand every year.

Who would have thought that Lu Yuning would finally enter the palace and not need to buy a dowry, Tao simply handed over all the money to Lu Yuning and let Lu Yuning bring it into the palace.

This amount of silver is not too much, but it is only more than two thousand taels, but the amount of money for the beauties in the palace is only two hundred taels a year, which is equivalent to her ten-year salary, and it is not a problem to use it for three or five years.

And in three or five years, she will definitely not be the situation she is now, as long as she has a favor, there will be no shortage of silver.

After letting Qing Dai and Qing Zhi collect the thank you gift sent by Concubine Jing into the warehouse, Lu Yuning shook the fan in her hand and was stunned.

I don't know where the emperor will go tonight?
