Chapter 239 Playing Leaf Card
Author: Yang Azhai
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhaoyi retorted: "Sister Wei, don't just talk about me, don't you like playing too?"
"I'm going to play with you." Wei Zhaoyi said.
"What?" Chen Zhaoyi said: "I see that my sister is having fun every time, and she says she is playing with me. I see that my sister likes to play even myself, but I feel embarrassed to admit it."
Lu Wanning looked at the two of them and found it quite interesting.
When she was in the Hou Mansion, she couldn't get along with Lu Wanrou and Lu Wanyi. Even if she was a bickering, she wouldn't be like this without malicious bickering. Although the relationship between them and Lu Wanqing is not as bad as Lu Wanrou and Lu Wanyi,
It's also the kind of very polite and polite, with a little distant feeling, and has never been a fight like Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi.
After entering the palace, she was even more cautious, for fear of making mistakes, and did not dare to have a close relationship with the people around her, so it was even more unfamiliar with her that she could quarrel like this.
There are four people who can only play Ye Zi card. Although Lu Wanning joins, there are still not enough people. Qingzhi and Qingdai can't play Ye Zi card, so they pulled Chen Zhaoyi's big palace maid to make up the numbers.
It is not difficult to learn Ye Zi Card. After listening to the rules and gameplay, Lu Wanning knew how to play it.
In the first two games, Lu Wanning was a little bit erect and had some bumps and bumps when playing, but by the third game, Lu Wanning had already had a lot of smooth play.
I don’t know if it was Lu Wanning’s luck, or if Chen Zhaoyi, Wei Zhaoyi, and Chen Zhaoyi’s palace maid let Lu Wanning go, anyway, Lu Wanning won this first time playing Ye Zi Card, so she was quite happy.
When Luo Chengjing arrived at Qingxi Pavilion, Lu Wanning and the others were still playing the Ye Zi Card.
Hearing the eunuchs and palace maids outside salute, several people quickly put down the leaf sign in their hands.
When Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi heard Luo Chengjing come, they looked at the Ye Zipai on the table, their eyes were a little flustered, "Empress, isn't it good for the emperor to see?"
"It's okay." Lu Wanning smiled at the two of them and said, "Let's go and welcome the emperor quickly."
Lu Wanning said as she walked out first, and Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi were also busy following.
As soon as Lu Wanning walked to the door, Luo Chengjing walked in.
"I have seen the emperor." Lu Wanning bent down and saluted.
"The beloved concubine doesn't have to be too polite." Luo Chengjing helped Lu Wanning up, looked at Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi in the room, and said with a smile: "The beloved concubine is so lively here."
Lu Wanning smiled and said, "Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi are teaching their concubines to play the Ye Zi card."
"Oh?" Luo Chengjing responded and said to Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi who were still kneeling on the ground: "You all get up too."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After thanking, the two stood up, wanted to say goodbye, but saw that Luo Chengjing had already spoken to Lu Wanning, and they had to stand by in silence.
Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi also knew that Luo Chengjing had been having dinner at Qingxi Pavilion recently. Both of them were planning to leave before Luo Chengjing came, but they did not expect that Luo Chengjing would come so early today and that they had not come yet.
and leave.
Wei Zhaoyi thought a lot, and she was a little worried about whether Lu Wanning would think that they were deliberately waiting for the emperor at her.
Chen Zhaoyi didn't think so much, but listening to Luo Chengjing and Lu Wanning talking, she couldn't help but envy.
Luo Chengjing looked at the Ye Zipai and Xiao Yinzi on the table that had not yet been packed, and asked Lu Wanning with a smile: "Do you guys have the lottery?"
Lu Wanning said: "It's fun to have a lottery."
"Did the beloved lose or win today?" Luo Chengjing said curiously.
"I am lucky today and won a lot." Lu Wanning pointed to the pile of silver croakers on the table and said with a little show of flaunting: "I have won all these."
Luo Chengjing looked at Lu Wanning's proud expression and said funny: "Is the beloved concubine so powerful?"
When Lu Wanning heard Luo Chengjing's question, he felt a little embarrassed, "Actually, I'm not so good. The main reason is that they all give in to me. Otherwise, I would not win so much if I learned it all."
Although Lu Wanning said that he won a lot, they were actually just playing. The silver steaks on the table were basically one or two points. Even if Lu Wanning won a lot, it would be less than ten taels in total.
.
Wei Zhaoyi heard Lu Wanning's words and wanted to be humble, but after thinking about it, she still didn't speak.
When Luo Chengjing and Lu Wanning finished talking and picked up the teacup to drink tea, Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi found an opportunity to say goodbye.
"I will not disturb the emperor and the empress, let me say goodbye first."
Luo Chengjing drank tea and said lightly, "Yeah."
After Wei Zhaoyi and Chen Zhaoyi came out of Qingxi Pavilion, Chen Zhaoyi looked back at the gate of Qingxi Pavilion and said to Wei Zhaoyi: "The emperor really loves Concubine Zhuang. Concubine Zhuang is relaxed in front of the emperor. The emperor is polite.
The tone of Empress Zhuang's speech was different from that of us."
Wei Zhaoyi smiled and asked, "Sister is envious or jealous?"
Chen Zhaoyi touched her face and shook her head and said, "I'm a little envious, but I don't have jealousy."
If she pushes forward for ten or eight years, she may still be jealous, but at her age, she also knows that she will never be favored anymore. What else can she be jealous?
Now she hopes to be able to live a peaceful and stable life in this palace.
Wei Zhaoyi sighed and said, "It's good that my sister can think so well. We can't compete with Concubine Zhuang."
Chen Zhaoyi smiled at Wei Zhaoyi and said, "Don't worry, sister, sister will not do stupid things."
Even if she wants to do nothing, she doesn't have the ability, let alone she doesn't have this idea at all.
"Sister believes in you." Wei Zhaoyi said.
She and Chen Zhaoyi have known each other for more than ten years now. They have a good relationship. She doesn't want Chen Zhaoyi to do anything stupid because of her temporary envy or jealousy.
How many years after Empress Zhuang entered the palace, she was able to be favored and successfully gave birth to the third princess, which means that Empress An was not ordinary. Chen Zhaoyi was straightforward and not very smart. If she wanted to do anything, the possibility of success was possible.
It's very small, and the possibility of losing your life in the end is very high.
After that day, Chen Zhaoyi and Wei Zhaoyi often went to Lu Wanning to play the Ye Zi Card, but with this experience, they would choose to leave before the emperor came every time.
By August, the weather finally cooled down.
Luo Chengjing also planned to go back to the palace. After all, the eighth day of the eighth month is the birthday of the empress dowager, so the empress dowager's birthday cannot be spent in Qingning Villa.
