Chapter 1302 (1/2)
”Father
Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei bowed their knees to the king of South Town.
”No gift!” The king of Zhennan waved his hand and motioned to everyone to be excused. He looked at Aunt Mei, who was kneeling on the ground. He frowned and asked, ”what are you doing here? ”
Aunt Mei raised her small face as white as jade, and she called out:” Lord... ” A pair of glittering black pupils revealed unspeakable grievances and timidity. She bit her lower lip with snow-white jade teeth, and looked at Nangong Yue with a look of half drooping eyes. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly like cicada wings.
The king of Zhennan frowned slightly.
A smile flashed in Nangong Yue's eyes. Before he began to inquire, he stepped forward and gave a blessing. He said respectfully, ”father, Aunt Mei has just entered the palace and failed to learn the rules of our palace. His daughter-in-law is punishing her for an hour to remember the lesson, so as not to make a joke in the future.”
Zhennan Wang suddenly nodded, so it is.
Since the imperial concubine took charge of the family, it has been in good order. It can be seen that the rules of the imperial concubine are excellent.
He nodded his head and said, ”princess, now you are in charge of the house. You can be the master.”
”Father Xie.” Nangong Yue said thanks respectfully.
Aunt Mei bowed her head and knelt stiffly on the cold bluestone floor in winter. She did not move, and her thin figure looked pitiful.
Zhennan Wang took a look at the young and delicate concubine. He felt a little distressed, but he didn't want the other party to be arrogant and arrogant. He didn't say anything, so he strode away.
Next, no one paid attention to Aunt Mei.
”Sister in law, let's go to Merlin.”
Xiao Fei and Nangong Yue continue to go ahead according to the original plan, leaving only Aunt Mei kneeling there alone.
Aunt Mei's maid looks at the back of nangongyue and Xiaofei's leaving, and then looks at her master. She dares not to help him get up. From time to time, there are servant girls and women passing by, whispering and pointing.
Until kneeling full of a full hour, servant girl this just carefully will Mei aunt help up.
It's freezing. Aunt Mei's knees are numb and cold. She describes that she went back to her yard with the help of a servant girl, and then dismissed her.
The rest of her face changed as if she were a person in a hurry.
She strode to the desk, ground the ink skillfully, spread out a piece of silk paper, then picked up a wolf's hair, dipped in the ink, and wrote without hesitation -
” She was calm, resolute and resolute. She was trusted by the king of Zhennan. Now the palace is under the control of shizifei, and it is hard to find any flaws. I will continue to follow the plan and wait for the opportunity. ”
After receiving the pen, Aunt Mei read the letter again, pondered for a moment, and then wrote a pen at the end of the letter. She said, ”I heard that Her Highness has arrived at Luoyue city. If you have any errands, please give me your orders.”
Aunt Mei carefully blew the silk paper open and pulled a flower spike hairpin from her hair. She skillfully removed the head of the hairpin. It was obvious that the hairpin was hollow! She carefully rolled up the silk paper and put it into the hairpin. Then she put on the head of the hairpin and removed a pearl from it.
After all this, she put away all the ink and brush, and then with a low cry, ”ah!...” Qinglan, Qinglan
Waiting outside the servant girl Qing Lan quickly pushed the door to come in and bent his knees and said, ”aunt.”
”My hairpin!” Aunt Mei's eyes were tearful, and the tears seemed to fall at any time. She said at a loss, ”this is the reward of the Lord. How could it be broken?”
Qing Lan went to see it and comforted him, ”Auntie, don't worry. I just lost a bead. I'll find a jade shop to repair it in a few days. ”
”Yes, yes!” Aunt Mei's eyes brightened and said, ”please help me fix it. When I was waiting for my wife, I heard that the craftsman in JinManTang in the north of the city is good at craftsmanship. You can go there to repair it.” Speaking of this, she stopped for a while, and her tears seemed to be falling. She was pitiful. ”I am a rootless duckweed in the palace. I can only rely on the Lord. If the Lord knows that I don't cherish his reward, maybe, maybe I have offended my son and concubine. What should I do without the favor of the prince? ”
”Don't worry, aunt.” Qing Lan was anxious for her, and said faithfully, ”Wei side imperial concubine is good, just go to repair a hairpin, and I won't embarrass you.”
Aunt Mei took her hand and said expectantly, ”go back quickly.”
Qing Lan nodded and went quickly with a hairpin.
Aunt Mei looked at her back in a hurry, and her red lips were slightly hooked.
In spite of the strict rules and regulations in the palace, the imperial concubine, as a daughter-in-law, still can't manage her father-in-law's inner court. Princess Wei is always a good talker. It's not difficult to go out and do some ”little things” as long as she gets her permission.
Aunt Mei opened the window leisurely, and the cold wind came with the fresh plum fragrance. She remembered that just now, the imperial concubine and the eldest girl went hand in hand, and the maid who was following her had a small red clay stove, a copper pot and a bamboo basket in her hand. She must have planned to go to enjoy the plum Before she entered the palace, she heard that the princess and the eldest girl had a good relationship. Now it seems that she is.Maybe this will be a breakthrough
The plum blossom is in full bloom in the prince's mansion of Zhennan, and all kinds of wintersweet are in full bloom, especially in the North Garden.
Nangongyue and Xiao Fei cook tea, enjoy plum blossoms, and inscribe poems with ink. A picture of winter plum leaps on the paper. In the picture, wintersweet is in full bloom. A gray Eagle stops at the branch and pecks at its wings, adding to its vitality.
Both of them thought the painting was very good, and Nangong Yue asked Baihui to mount it.
Xiao Fei murmured regretfully, ”if only there was snow.” With that, her eyes brightened and she said, ”sister-in-law, let's pick some plum flowers and go back to make snacks.”
Nangong Yue answered with a smile, so they picked several baskets of plum blossom in the garden together with several servant girls.
Xiao Fei told her maid to take those baskets of flowers back to yuebiju. She vowed that she would go back to make plum blossom sugar sauce, and invite nangongyue, old master Fang, and Han Qixia to taste the plum blossom cakes she had made with plum blossom tea.
