Chapter 23: A Unique Reward
"Father-in-law Han, ...... this?" Zhao Nuoqing was very surprised, so he heard Han Mingde smile and said: "The emperor said that Zhao Cairen had a meritorious service to sleep yesterday, and specially chose these two things as a reward for Zhao Cairen, Zhao Cairen come and thank you!" ”
Listening to Han Mingde's words, Zhao Nuoqing lowered her head in embarrassment, she didn't know when she fell asleep last night, she was too late to panic, where did she come to bed?
Isn't it the credit that he fell asleep and was painted by the emperor?
Thinking of this, Zhao Nuoqing's heart became even heavier, was what she saw really the same person as the emperor in the queen's mouth?
Lin Cairen on the side saw the milky kitten and said in surprise: "I have never heard that the emperor's reward for the concubine will be a kitten?" What does the emperor mean by this? ”
Zhao Nuoqing shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
After thanking the reward, Han Mingde looked at Lin Cairen and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Lin Cairen to be here!" It just so happened that the emperor turned over your brand today, and the slave was about to give Zhao Cairen a reward and went to the Fuhua Pavilion to find you. ”
Hearing Han Mingde's words, Lin Cairen was pleasantly surprised, but he was not too happy when Zhao Nuoqing was by his side, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
She glanced back at Zhao Nuoqing, and saw that she was paying attention to the kitten and not paying attention to her side, so she breathed a sigh of relief, thanked Han Mingde, and gave her a reward.
Not long after Han Mingde left, Lin Cairen also followed to prepare for tonight's bedtime, and when he left, Zhao Nuoqing also gave her a peach blossom hairpin with golden kun beads, which she made a few days ago when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, thinking that Lin Cairen liked the hairpin made by Ruoshui, so he gave it to her as a gift, and Lin Cairen was very happy.
After Lin Cairen left, the rewards of the harem concubines came one after another, and the queen, Concubine Yi and others didn't need to say much, what everyone never expected was that the queen mother also sent rewards. For a while, even Jin He, who had always been unsmiling, was excited.
It didn't take long for the emperor and the queen mother to give Zhao Nuoqing a reward, and the more interesting thing was that the emperor actually gave Zhao Cairen a kitten!
Although cats are animals everywhere and are not worth any money, other people's rewards are only some gold and silver clothes and the like, and Zhao Cairen has received a unique reward!
It's just because of this "one-of-a-kind" that everyone is more and more dissatisfied in their hearts.
Jin Miao and Jin He had never received so many rewards in one day, and the treasury was almost unable to fit, so they were in a hurry for a while.
Later, Si Zhenfang, Shangfu Bureau, and the Internal Affairs Office all sent people to greet her, and even the imperial dining room added several dishes to her, and she could still eat it without spending money!
Zhao Nuoqing couldn't help but sigh with emotion, everyone is looking forward to sleeping, looking forward to a unique grace, and the difference between heaven and earth is vividly experienced in this day!
Many guests were greeted in one day, and it was not until the evening that it could not stop, and Zhao Nuoqing and others were already too tired to do so.
Today's Lingyun Pavilion is like a market, and it is the first time in more than a year that everyone is really a little unbearable.
However, Jin Miao's energy was extremely strong, even if she was tired and paralyzed, she was still smiling, and she couldn't close her mouth, and everyone laughed when they saw her so happy.
After a day of hard work, everyone in Lingyun Pavilion slept extremely sweetly.
Early the next morning, the sky was covered with a thick layer of clouds, like a thick quilt covering the sky, and the weather was exceptionally hot and muggy, full of signs of a storm.
Zhao Nuoqing ordered Jin He and Su Quan to move the flowers outside the house out, and if it rained, it would be good to water the rootless water, and instructed the two of them to take good care of the little milk cat rewarded by the emperor, and not let it slip out, and then took Jin Miao to Fengwu Palace to ask for peace.
Yesterday, Jin Miao took her to Fengwu Palace to see and learn today, from the inner room to the entrance of the palace, Jin He asked her all the way, so that no matter what she saw or heard, she must first listen to the master's instructions, and she must not impulsively cause trouble to the master.
Jin Miao said impatiently: "I know, I know!" I'm not a child, so of course I know to listen to my master! ”
Jin He looked at Jin Miao with a worried face, and he was always relieved in his heart, Zhao Nuoqing saw this and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will watch Jin Miao for you!" If she gets into trouble, she won't be brought out in the future, okay? ”
Jin Miao protested on the side, "Master, why don't you trust slaves!" ”
Everyone burst out laughing.
Jin He's serious face finally smiled, and he didn't want to say anything.
After coming to Fengwu Palace, there were already some concubines who had arrived early in the house, and as soon as she came, the eyes of the house were all shooting at her.
The first time Jin Miao saw such a battle, he was immediately frightened.
Xu Cairen, who came in advance, greeted him with a smile and greeted Zhao Nuoqing.
Before he could stand still, Han Baolin, who had helped Xu Cairen before, suddenly snorted and said sarcastically: "Have you heard of it, sisters?" Yesterday, the emperor summoned Lin Cairen to sleep, and the two of them had a spring supper overnight. It's a pity that someone, who tried his best to get the opportunity to sleep, but nothing happened, and he wasted a good opportunity in vain, which is really laughing to death! ”
The concubines present, the one who didn't know that she was taken away by the emperor but didn't sleep was Zhao Nuoqing and Zhao Cairen?
Then where did Han Baolin dare to mock Zhao Nuoqing, who is a talented person?
What's more, behind Zhao Cairen, but with the queen supporting him, didn't Han Baolin Mo lose his heart and go crazy?
Everyone was puzzled, but they never thought that Xu Cairen suddenly reprimanded Han Baolin with a serious face, "Han Baolin! You're just so presumptuous! Don't you know that yesterday the emperor rewarded Sister Zhao with a kitten, which is the only one in the palace! It is enough to see how much the emperor cares about Sister Zhao! Sister Zhao's sleep is just a matter of time or time! ”
After that, Xu Cairen no longer paid attention to Han Baolin, took Zhao Nuoqing's hand very affectionately, and comforted: "Sister, don't pay attention to her!" ”
Zhao Nuoqing frowned slightly, looking at the jealous gazes projected around him, and couldn't help but think: Xu Cairen mentioned the emperor's reward to her in front of so many concubines, did he want to trap her in the middle of everyone's targeting?
She was angry at her this time, did Han Baolin do it sincerely or intentionally?
What's in it for her?
In the face of Xu Cairen's sudden overture, Zhao Nuoqing remained vigilant in his heart, smiled lightly, and bowed his head to show it.
Why Han Baolin was so bold to ridicule Zhao Cairen, everyone still didn't know, but Xu Cairen helped Zhao Cairen like this, and everyone's thoughts began to come alive.
are all wondering if there is also a queen behind Xu Cairen?
Han Baolin suddenly snorted coldly, and looked at Xu Cairen with a disgusted expression, "Yo! At this time, you just started to play sisterhood? I don't know how Xu Cairen treated Zhao Cairen when he had the queen's support behind him, and did you forget it when everyone did? ”
Xu Cairen was instantly embarrassed, and turned around to look at Han Baolin angrily, "How do I treat Zhao Cairen?" Sister Zhao and I are like brothers, you don't want to sow discord here! ”
Zhao Nuoqing wondered, when did she and Xu Cairen become "brothers"?
At this time, a eunuch suddenly sang outside: "Concubine Niangniang has arrived!" ”
So, everyone temporarily stopped dwelling, and they all knelt down to the ground to greet the concubine.
Concubine Shu walked straight to the front position, and the maid of the tea palace immediately served the tea, and the concubine took a shallow sip of the tea before saying slowly: "It's all free of courtesy!" ”
Everyone was dissatisfied, but they also knew the temper of the concubine, the concubine was arrogant, and now there was a prince by her side, so she was even more arrogant, and her family background could not compete with it, so she could only swallow this breath silently
