Chapter 71 The hairpin is broken, the meaning is not good
Seeing Concubine Qiao coming with the little princess, the father-in-law in charge quickly cheered up.
The four maids behind him also greeted him with smiles one after another.
"See the imperial concubine, the little princess."
Concubine Qiao has a calm expression and her phoenix eyes are gorgeous and majestic.
She put on Gu Nuoer's hood with her hands, and the little guy turned into a budding flower.
Her fair and tender little face was smeared with two clouds of blush.
It was so warm on the sedan chair that as soon as she got off, she couldn't help but huddle in her mother's arms.
Concubine Qiao said calmly: "Eunuch Gao, this is the wind outlet, it's freezing cold, why are you waiting here? Why don't you go to the corridor and wait?"
The father-in-law in charge wanted to sell Concubine Qiao a favor, so he rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Everyone in the palace knows that the queen sleeps lightly, and the servants are not willing to come forward to disturb her.
What’s more, the Imperial Concubine has told me that no one can disturb the Queen’s rest, so I just waited below, but it didn’t take long, and it’s neither cold nor cold!”
Concubine Qiao's red lips curled up into a faint smile. She gently pointed her finger, and Wanyin behind her immediately understood.
He held up a small bag of broken silver and handed it to Eunuch Gao.
The father-in-law in charge looked at it and smiled happily, but he still suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth and said: "My dear, how can this be done?"
Concubine Qiao, with her beautiful eyes, gave him a look that was neither salty nor indifferent: "If you do well and abide by the palace rules, I will reward you.
But Eunuch Gao, I have always made clear rewards and punishments. If none of the four maids you will bring to me are satisfactory to me, then you should weigh them carefully, and be careful that money is hot to the touch."
The concubine's beatings frightened Eunuch Gao so much that he squeezed the silver bag tightly.
"That's right. These are the most diligent, quick, and smart girls in the Palace Affairs Department. Please go to the side hall and select them."
At this moment, in Concubine Qiao's dark cloud-like bun, the gold hairpin that had been inserted sideways on the ground suddenly fell to the ground.
There was only a crisp "snap" sound, and the hairpin was broken into two pieces.
Such a shocking change happened in an instant.
Gu Nuoer was still lying on Concubine Qiao's shoulder, holding a piece of candy in her mouth.
But Concubine Qiao's hairpin fell off, this is a big deal!
One of the four maids reacted first. She stepped forward quickly and picked up the broken hairpin from the ground with both hands.
"I beg you, Your Majesty, to bestow such a blessing on this slave." She bowed slightly and spoke neither humble nor arrogantly.
Concubine Qiao raised her eyebrows and looked at her carefully: "The hairpin is broken, which has a bad meaning. How can you say this is a blessing?"
The palace maid's voice was clear: "Because it fell from the empress's body and fell to the ground and broke into two pieces, which proves that this hairpin has passed away.
Next, as long as I find a way to redo the hairpin, I will be blessed by the empress, and good luck will continue to come."
Wanyin and Wanxuan looked at each other.
At the moment, I thought to myself, what a clever mouthed palace maid.
He said that the unlucky thing was auspicious, and he was willing to regard the broken hairpin as a kind of gift and pray to the empress to give it to him.
I have to say, she is very smart.
Concubine Qiao also looked very satisfied: "What's your name?"
"Back to the imperial concubine, my slave's name is Ayun."
Concubine Qiao nodded and kept her in mind.
Gu Nuo'er looked at it for a few times but said nothing, only her beautiful and delicate eyes were filled with sparkles.
When we got to the side hall, the Queen was still awake.
Empress Du was in a critical period of recuperation, so there was no need to wait for her to come, Concubine Qiao could decide which two maids to keep.
