The emperor's reward was not heavy. Two hairpins and a string of fragrant beads were not specially made. They looked like they were just randomly picked and sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But the things did not matter, what mattered was the emperor's wishes. Even if the imperial meal was rewarded with one
A bowl of food is enough for the concubines to be grateful.
Bu was so happy that she agreed. She held the hairpin fragrant beads and rubbed them for a long time and refused to put them down. Lan Qi specially sorted out a delicate rosewood box, put a fine velvet towel on it, held it in front of her master and teased her: "Master, hurry up.
Put it in and touch it again, so as not to stain your palms with sweat. The next time the emperor sees you wearing it, the color will be wrong."
Bu agreed and pushed Lan Qi gently, "If you make trouble with me like Pan Xia, who can I expect to go?"
Pan Xia happened to come in and heard his name being uttered, so he hummed: "Master heard what Lan Qi told the slave again. You have spoiled her."
The three masters and servants were joking and joking, and it was so funny. Aunt Wang heard the laughter outside, and her face was full of displeasure. Jingyan beside her added fuel to the fire, "This Lan Qi is the best at coaxing Yao Yao to be happy, so much so that Yao Yao doesn't even look at us.
Now that I promise to pay less attention to you, grandma, she is the one who instigated me."
How could Grandma Wang stand up to provocation? Manager Li didn't give her a good look just now. Instead, she told Lan Qi to take good care of her master, which made her very embarrassed. Now that she heard Jing Yan's words, she felt even more disgusted.
She gritted her teeth and said viciously: "We'll see, she'll cry sometimes."
On the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Bu promised to be officially promoted to Chang Zai. The emperor spared her from thanking her and only came to Cining Palace. Because the Empress Dowager liked the little princess, she was extra generous to her and rewarded her with many things and even granted her a favor.
She went to her brother's place to visit her daughter.
Bu Chang had told Lan Qi in private that if she could see her daughter, she wouldn't want any reward, not even the position Chang had promised. I didn't expect the Empress Dowager to be so kind and considerate.
Thinking that her wish would be fulfilled so quickly.
Lan Qi was lucky enough to visit the little princess with her master. The little girl was very strong and cute, which reminded her of her little sister at home. When she entered the palace last year, her little sister was just born, and she felt homesick for a while.
But she couldn't tolerate her sentimentality. After leaving her brother's place, the weak-tempered Bu Changzai couldn't help crying. Lan Qi quickly advised her: "It's a big festival in the twelfth lunar month. Master, please don't dare to cry outside and ask others."
It’s not good to see it.”
Bu Chang was frightened and hurriedly suppressed his tears. The group of people hurried back to Zhongcui Palace, but on the way they met a ceremonial sedan coming from the front. The little eunuch accompanying him poked his head and looked here, and didn't know what to say when he went back.
What? The sedan chair stopped.
The door curtain of dark blue cloud satin was raised, and the beauty was wearing a lotus-colored cloak. Lan Qi remembered that she had seen this person on New Year's Day, and whispered in her master's ear: "It's Dong Changzai."
Bu Changzai hurriedly led Lan Qi forward to salute and respectfully called: "Sister."
Both of them were Chang Zai. Although Dong Changzai was not as good as Bu Changzai in terms of background, he had been in the palace for a long time. He just lost his daughter last year and was so sad that he was always sick in the palace and seldom walked around outside the palace.
.When Bu Chang was young, calling her sister should be a response.
Dong Changzai was also polite and got off the ceremonial sedan to greet her. This ceremonial sedan was originally given to her by the emperor because of her frailty. It can be seen that although she has been silent for a long time, the divine grace is not shallow.
"Sure enough, my sister is so lucky..." Hearing that he came from his elder brother, Dong Changzai sighed quietly, with a sad look in his eyes, "The last time I saw the princess, she had run out of energy."
Lan Qi's heart tightened. She raised her eyes and saw that Chang Zai was beautiful and beautiful, far superior to Rong Guiren. She was also a maid of Qianqing Palace, but over the years, her life was not as good as Rong Guiren's. How could it be that Rong Guiren had lost three sons in a row? It's not as sad as her, but the result is exactly the opposite.
After exchanging a few words, the two parties dispersed.
Bu Changzai seemed to be infected by Dong Changzai's sadness. After returning to the palace, he became more worried about gains and losses, with tears in his eyes. Lan Qi knew that although Grandma Wang was not a very nice person, some of her words could wake people up, so she deliberately mentioned Dong in front of her. Chang Zai, Granny Wang really shouted: "Master, you shouldn't look at that one, you should learn to be a noble person, life in this harem is the same, whether you live well or not is all up to you."
