Chapter 9: The Feast

I wanted to show off to her, but I didn't have a face at the moment, so I ate a few sips of tea and chatted a few words in embarrassment, and left in a hurry.

After Xu Cairen left, Jin Miao took out the jewelry she brought and laughed unabashedly, "Xu Cairen is so funny!" She is shabby, and the gifts she gives are shabby, just these things, how can she be embarrassed to give them to our master? Master, the slave and maid will help you throw it away! ”

"No!" Zhao Nuoqing stopped, "Whether the gift is valuable or not, in the end, it is Xu Cairen's heart, and we don't have much in the warehouse, so we can't take up much space, so let's put it away!" ”

Jin Miao didn't dare to disobey her master's words, so she let out a muffled "oh" and turned around and walked outside the house.

Jin He followed and walked out, patiently explaining: "If you lose it, Xu Cairen will ask the master when you turn around, how should the master get back?" You, you, don't just think about your own joy and anger, the master who turned back and harmed followed you to suffer! ”

Jin Miao didn't expect this, but after listening to Jin He's words, he felt that it was very reasonable, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised in his heart.

It's no wonder that the master likes to talk to Jin He the most, Jin He can always think of a place with the master!

However, today's Jin He seems to be a little different from weekdays, and he took the initiative to say this to her, Jin He always looked at her coldly before, basically didn't have a good face, to be honest, she was really a little afraid of her!

After listening to Jin He's words, Jin Miao obediently put away the box, and when he came to the warehouse, he just threw it away, his eyes full of disgust.

Jin Miao pouted and walked out of the treasury, walked to the front courtyard, and saw a slightly familiar palace maid coming out of the side hall, the palace maid was dressed simply and elegantly, but the materials used were excellent, Jin He followed the side to send the general out, the two smiled and didn't know what to say, and the palace maid left.

She thought hard for a while, and suddenly realized, isn't this the big palace maid Qingyan next to the queen's mother?

What is she doing here?

Yesterday, the queen mother promised her master to reward her master, could it be that she came to fulfill her promise?

Thinking of this, Jin Miao was excited, watched Jin He turn back, hurriedly walked over, and asked with a smile: "Sister Jin He, is Qingyan here to send the queen's mother to the master's reward?" What a baby? ”

Jin He didn't know when he lost his smile, and said lightly: "There is no reward, but the queen mother is grateful for the queen mother's hard work, and she wants to hold a banquet and sing on the evening of the day after tomorrow, and invite our mother to go together!" ”

"Really?"

Participate in the banquet set by the queen mother for the queen mother, and the emperor will definitely come!

Listening to Jin He's words, Jin Miao was excited, and he didn't notice the smile on Jin He's face that had already dissipated.

Jin He snorted, his tone was a little impatient, "Didn't you see Qingyan too?" I can't lie to you! ”

Jin Miao's face was sneering, I don't know why Jin He's face suddenly changed, and he was a little unhappy in his heart for a while, he was invited by the queen to participate in the palace banquet, isn't this a great thing? Why does it look like you're in trouble?

Hmph, what to drag? Isn't it just to gain face in front of the master?

Jin Miao thought indignantly.

After that, the two of them had walked to the door, Jin He lifted the bead curtain and walked in, and saw his master leaning on the soft couch and looking at the idle book calmly, not as sad as he thought.

I thought that the master was used to being closed on weekdays, but now when he goes out, he has to meet many mothers and even the queen mother, and he must be sad in his heart.

Now it seems that I am too worried?

"Niangniang......" Jin He called softly.

Zhao Nuoqing slowly raised his head and ordered: "Go and prepare the new set of clothes sent by the Shangfu Bureau a few days ago, the upper body of that dress is refreshing and the color is elegant, it is not in the limelight and not shabby, it is perfect to participate in the banquet the day after tomorrow!" ”

Jin He curtsied, turned around and went to the cabinet to find the dress that the master said.

As soon as Zhao Nuoqing looked up, he caught a glimpse of Jin Miao's gloomy face, if Jin Miao heard that she was going to participate in the banquet, she would be the happiest, after all, the emperor would also go!

Why do you look angry now?

"Jin Miao, what's wrong with you? But who bullied you? Zhao Nuoqing asked.

Jin Miao took a step forward and shook his head, "The slave is not being bullied!" ”

After that, Jin Miao couldn't help it, and asked again: "Master, are you ...... Don't want to go to the banquet invited by the queen? The slave and maid were not very happy when they looked at Jin He, presumably because the master was unhappy, right? ”

Jin Miao and Jin He are logically equal, but Jin He is more capable and strong, Jin Miao is softer but lets Jin He everywhere, and now it seems that Jin He is alone.

She knows that Jin He has a better face than herself in front of the master, because Jin He knows the master's heart best, so she also knows that Jin He's impatience is not aimed at her, but for the master's worry, although she will still be unhappy in her heart, but after all, Jin He is also better for the master, and after thinking about it, she doesn't blame Jin He.

Zhao Nuoqing glanced up at Jin He, who was rummaging for clothes from the cabinet, only to find that Jin He's expression was heavier than hers, and his heart warmed at the moment, and he laughed, "I'm a little unhappy, but your master I can see it, since I am in the palace, such a banquet can not hide for a while, I don't want to participate in the palace banquet Originally, it was just troublesome, not extremely resistant, let's treat it normally!" ”

After that, he looked at Jin He again, called her over, took her hand and said with a smile: "I know that you feel sorry for me and worry about me, you are only eighteen or nineteen years old, don't always look serious, this banquet just took you and Jin Miao to see the world together, always nest with me in this acre and three points of land, it's really boring!" ”

Listening to Zhao Nuoqing's words, a shallow smile hung on the corner of Jin He's mouth, and Jin Miao on the side also swept away the haze of Fang Cai, excited.

It's the first time she has seen a singing opera in the palace, and she only watched it at the temple fair when she was a child, but there were many people at that time, and she had to take care of her younger brother to avoid being washed away, so she basically couldn't watch a complete play.

Of course, watching the play is not important, the most important thing is that the emperor will also come!

At that time, the master may be able to win the favor of the emperor, after all, their master is extremely beautiful, and he will definitely be glamorous at that time!

Jin Miao thought so, but she didn't know how much she regretted letting her master go to this banquet one day in the future!

……

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, Zhao Nuo packed up early in the morning, and took Jin Miao and Jin He to Cining Palace, where the Queen Mother lived.

Because of the remoteness of their residence, they set off from the palace before evening, and when they arrived at Cining Palace, the sky gradually darkened, and there were already many concubines on the stage, all standing in groups and laughing.

Jin Miao on the side was surprised: "I thought we came early enough, but I never thought that there would be one earlier!" ”

Zhao Nuoqing smiled, looking around, the ones who came early were just some concubines who were about the same or lower rank as her, and their status was low, if they were late, wouldn't they sincerely not want to make themselves feel better?
