Chapter 125: There are tears in the pearl of the sea and the moon (2)
Qingwan has been watching in the garden, and from time to time she talks and laughs with Yu'er, her voice is not loud or small, but the sound can just reach the main hall.
About an hour later, Suyue and Pingzhi heard a voice coming from the hall.
"Please let her in."
"Yes."
When Qingwan saw the two slaves and maids saying that Concubine Xi wanted to see her, she hooked her lips and smiled, and walked towards the main hall.
When I entered the hall, I felt a little breeze, a few wisps of flowers, the whole palace was a little quiet, the people sitting in the hall were dignified and decent, delicate and elegant, and the years did not bring her any destruction, no wonder the emperor would be so favored today.
"Concubine Qingwan greets Concubine Xi Niangniang, may Niangniang be auspicious."
Concubine Xi saw that the figure was full of enchantment and promised to greet herself, Liu Mei frowned slightly, and said: "I see that your master and servant are watching outside, I can't bear to disturb, but these days, I don't have time to see you, I happen to be free today, so I invite you in, don't bother, right?" "Gently help Qingwan to the couch and sit down.
"It's the concubine who is rude, she should have come to greet Concubine Xi earlier, but I heard earlier that the emperor said that Niangniang had to accompany the Queen Mother during this time, and she was very tired, so she didn't dare to come to disturb." Zhu lips open, chin smiling, eyebrows and cold porcelain voice.
"Oh, the emperor is really, how can I tell you this, fortunately, the emperor has his sister by his company these days, and he will not be lonely." Concubine Xi'e swept her eyebrows lightly, raised the corners of her lips slightly, and her pupils were as deep as an abyss.
"The emperor has often mentioned you these days."
Eyebrows furrowed, "oh".
"The emperor didn't say anything bad about me."
"Niangniang laughed, the emperor praised Niangniang endlessly."
Concubine Xi smiled and looked at the person in front of her carefully, her nails brushed the teacup more and more, and said shallowly, "Then I will rest assured, I'm afraid that you will have a bad impression of me." ”
"Why, I'm ashamed to say that I just stood outside for an hour today, and I have been hesitating whether to come in and say hello to my mother." Qingwan said the reason why she stood outside for more than an hour.
"Then why not come in? But afraid of me? "Concubine Xi has a good impression of Qingwan's honesty, this woman is not pretentious.
Qingwan shook her head and bit her lower lip lightly.
"On weekdays, I hear the emperor praise Niangniang, but I also listen to it, but if I really see the real person, I'm afraid I will be a little ashamed."
"And now?"
Qingwan was not in a hurry to answer, and began to look at Concubine Xi carefully, and then said: "It's the emperor who is exaggerated." ”
I don't know who laughed first, Concubine Xi said: "You kid is really real, but it's also likable." "If you're used to hearing good things, you naturally won't listen to anything.
However, when Qingwan saw Concubine Xi laughing, she was embarrassed, took the handkerchief, and said: "The concubine doesn't know how to speak, so don't laugh at the concubine." ”
"How could it be a joke about you?"
"Su Yue, take the incense powder from Yangzhou."
"This Yangzhou incense powder powder is delicate and silky, and it was also brought into the palace when the great grandfather toured Yangzhou in the south, and you can keep it."
When Qingwan saw the box of incense powder, her face was overjoyed, and her eyes lit up.
"It is said that the world's fragrant powder is better than Yangzhou, and this powder is better than the pearl."
"It's just a little fragrant powder, how can it be compared to pearls, but this fragrant powder has a gardenia fragrance, if you don't wipe it, it's also fragrant and charming in the house, just like my sister,"
"Don't make fun of me, mother."
"What I can say is the truth, otherwise how could the emperor turn over his sister's sign again and again." As soon as the words fell, Pingzhi came in from the outside and said, "Niangniang, the emperor asked you to go to the Heart Cultivation Palace." ”
"Got it, let's go down first." Concubine Xi's tone was flat and calm.
"Since the emperor wants to see Niangniang, I won't bother the concubine."
"This emperor is really good, I finally got free, and I can have a good chat with you." Concubine Xi sighed slightly and stood up, and Qingwan of course stood up.
"Presumably, the emperor has something important to discuss with Niangniang, so Niangniang should go over earlier."
"Then my sister should go back early, and in the future, if you are free, you will often come to sit with me."
Qingwan nodded slightly, blessed her body, and walked out.
On the secluded path, Qingwan took the incense powder given by Concubine Xi and said to Yu'er: "This incense powder will be given to you." ”
Yu'er was surprised: "Little master, this is a tribute powder, how can the slave and maid bear it." "I wanted to, but I couldn't reach out.
Hearing this, Qingwan smiled and picked up Yu'er's hand, stuffed the incense powder into her hand, and said, "You just take it, I don't lack it." ”
The thing was already in her hands, and Yu'er couldn't refuse, so she thanked her and followed Qingwan with a happy face.
Qingwan walked straight, her complexion had returned to flat, and even a little dignified, this incense powder was like powder, it would disperse as soon as it was blown, like fireworks, but it was just a temporary bloom, just like the emperor's favor to herself, it would not last long after all, Concubine Xi, you are warning me.
