Chapter 463 Happy Event (3)
But now, Dong Xiuyi's temperament is a little dull, but her appearance is charming and beautiful, and the imperial meals are not bad, especially the lotus seed porridge is refreshing and delicious, and the emperor asks her to make it from time to time, so Dong Xiuyi has become the emperor A woman who is closer to me.
The emperor waved his hand: "Take it here."
Eunuch Li ordered the little eunuch outside to bring in the lotus seed porridge that Dong Xiuyi put down.
At the same time, in the deep corridor of the palace, a woman dressed in brocade was walking alone, and the eunuchs and maids around her all looked at her and said hello respectfully. This Dong Xiuyi looked unfavorable at the beginning, and bullied her a lot, but who knows that now he can get close to the emperor, so Feng Shui turns, and now it is the turn of this palace man who is showing favor to others to be trembling. It's just that the woman in the gorgeous dress didn't seem to have seen it at all, her eyes were a little deep.
All the way back to the courtyard of the side hall, Dong Yinger ordered the eunuchs and maids to go down. She sat down in front of the vanity mirror, and took out a wooden box from under the wooden cabinet. There was a fresh lotus pod in the box. Light something that looks like honey. The emperor has a light appetite recently, so he can't eat food that is too strong. Lotus seeds clear fire but taste bitter, but many people in the world can't bear the pain of that star point, especially the eating of the ninety-five venerables. It must be said that the lotus seed heart is marinated with honey, which removes a layer of bitterness there, and the porridge made is more fragrant and sweet. It's just... Dong Ying'er reached out to take off a sachet from her waist, and took out some white powder from it. The powder also had a strange fragrance, and as soon as Fang sprinkled it on the lotus pod, it was flooded with fresh honey. It just smells more fragrant. The little eunuch seemed to hear the flattering words with a smile again: "Mistress Xiuyi's lotus seed porridge is very good, and His Majesty likes it very much now. This servant sees that His Majesty and Your Majesty will only get closer day by day in the future, and we cannot be separated from Your Majesty." where."
Dong Ying'er put away the sachet, her eyes fell on the lotus pod that seemed to be the same as other things, and a smile slowly bloomed on her lips. It's just that the smile was a little stiff, as if someone pulled her skin abruptly and pulled it out, so it looked a little weird.
Naturally, the emperor couldn't do without her, because there were no women in the palace who didn't fight or snatch her, who silently cooked meals with heart. The emperor will like her more and more, or what he likes is not her, but her giving without asking for anything. It's just that the poison added to the imperial meal, even the most brilliant imperial physician can't see it. In order not to attract suspicion, she naturally doesn't cook porridge every day. In fact, it's the same as doing anything, as long as it can achieve the goal.
She slowly grasped her skirt, and remembered what the man in the palace had said to her earlier: The General's Mansion intends to hire Miss Zhao as a wife for Uncle Jiang, and now they are discussing the matter of exchanging Geng Tie. The uncle of the Jiang family, Jiang Xinzhi, and the young lady of the Zhao family, Zhao Jin. Dong Ying'er suddenly closed her eyes and took a deep breath, but finally couldn't bear it anymore, and brushed all the things in front of her to the ground. The maid waiting outside was startled, and was about to come in suddenly, saying: "Your Majesty!"
"Get out!" Dong Ying'er yelled angrily, and the people outside immediately fell silent, not daring to move. She looked at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.
In this world, why are there people so lucky. With the same background, he is not as good as others in any way, but he will be thrown into this deep palace and gradually wither. Why? That being the case, it would be better to go to hell together, after all, not so lonely.
...
In a certain house in the south of the Yangtze River, the black walls and white tiles are very exquisite, and the style is elegant. At first glance, you can tell that it is a wealthy family. At this moment, the servant outside the door hurried in, shouting: "Ma'am, ma'am!"
The woman sitting in the main hall was kind and kind, she was only in her forties, and looked dignified and virtuous, although she was old, she could tell that she must have been a beauty when she was young. Dressed in a honey-colored silk satin jacket, he smiled and scolded: "I ran so fast, I don't have to give you a tongue-in-cheek. Speak slowly."
The boy also smiled embarrassedly, took out a letter from his pocket, and said: "Madam, the young master has sent you a letter!"
"Erlang's letter?" The woman stood up when she heard it, and she couldn't stop her surprise, she said, "Show me quickly."
The young man hurriedly presented it with both hands, the woman took the letter and opened it impatiently and began to read. She glanced at ten lines and read very quickly, she finished reading it in a few clicks, and there was a bit of reproach and a bit of a smile on her face. Seeing her application, the maids around were all a little curious, and said, "Ma'am, how is the second young master?"
"This child," the woman caressed her heart and said, "I haven't replied to a letter all year round. If I really didn't take my own mother seriously, such a big matter has been decided. Only then did I write back and say, It's really..."
The woman who served her tea at the front was even more confused when she heard the words, and asked with some doubts: "What is the madam talking about, but the second young master has been promoted?" Since it was a big deal, his wife didn't show anything With a sad look, it should be a promotion. Thinking of this, the old woman also laughed: "That's true, that's a great happy event, and it should be celebrated."
"It's a happy event, but it's not a promotion." The woman also laughed: "It's Erlang who begged the prince to decide the marriage, so I won't come back and say something."
"This... this..." the old woman asked, "I wonder which family's lady it is?"
"It's the first-class servant girl next to the princess." The woman smiled.
"Maid girl? You haven't come out of slavery over there. With the status of Second Young Master, I'm afraid..." The old woman carefully considered the woman's face as she considered her words.
Seeing her appearance like this, the woman smiled again, and said: "I know what you are thinking. I feel that my family Erlang has been wronged, but since the prince was kind to our family at the beginning, if it weren't for the prince, how could we have the kindness we have now? After a long time, she has already become a pile of bones, right. Our family is not an official family, but a business, and although the girl's status is not high, she is not considered inappropriate."
"Ma'am," the woman was still a little unwilling: "Although we are not an official family, we are also a big family in the south of the Yangtze River. As the second young master, we can't find any decent lady, but..."
The woman glanced at her slowly, and the woman knew that she had said something wrong, and immediately became a little uneasy, only to hear the woman sigh, and said: "That's true, what do you think Erlang is, Erlang is willing Those who have been working with the prince for so many years, and there are very few letters throughout the year, I am afraid that what they do is dangerous. Such a dangerous situation, usually any spoiled lady would marry him. Besides, Erlang personally begged for this marriage in front of the prince. The one who came here was that Erlang was after his own wishes and his children’s wishes. I, as a mother, have no reason to stop me. Well, since Erlang is the prince’s subordinate, the prince can be his master. This marriage is the prince’s It looks good, and I agree, and I think there will be nothing wrong with the master. If you don't have faith, you can't stand, and the people around the princess can't be wrong." She thought of the handsome and calm man in black clothes, and a trace of emotion floated on her face. smile.
