Chapter 66 - Unbeatable Joy
Xi Hua heard that the emperor had flipped for his own Young Miss' tag, and her face immediately darkened as she glared at Xiao Linzi. Qin Luofei shook her head. This girl still had the same temperament as when she was at home.
Xiao Linzi did not bother with daisy and only nodded at Qin Luofei, "Qin Yu Nu An."
The palace maid on the other side of the concubine Ning also stood up and hurried over to pay respects to Xiao Linzi.
The people around the Emperor weren't people they could neglect.
"Eunuch Xiao Linzi, please sit in the room." concubine Ning tidied up his entire body and walked out of the house. He could not suppress the smile on his face.
Xiao Linzi gave Ling Tai face, and was unwilling to offend concubine Ning. He laughed: "Your concubine is too polite, where else can I go to Huan Beauty?"
Hearing Huan Beauty, the concubine Ning was stunned.
It had been a few years since the emperor had favoured the Huan Beauty, but he didn't expect the emperor to still think about her.
"Then I won't delay this eunuch any longer." concubine Ning glanced at Yue'er, who quietly went forward and stuffed the items into Xiao Linzi's hands.
Xiao Linzi secretly pinched himself, it was not light.
Xiao Linzi understood that the reason these palace concubines were treating him so well was because they wanted him to say a few nice words in front of the Emperor. It was a pity that the concubine Ning missed the age of beauty, because no matter how many times Ling Tai could get pampered, it wouldn't be for long. There were so many fresh beauties who were still unable to get their hands on it, how could they even think of eating it all back.
Qin Luofei was afraid that concubine Ning would be short of money and gave it to Yue Yang and the others, so she instructed Xi Hua to give it to her father-in-law.
Only after seeing Xiao Linzi walk out of the courtyard, did Dazzling Spring turn around and push open the door of the house.
"Miss, what are you looking for? "Dusk chrysanthemum will help you find it."
"Sister Ning is sleeping today. I'm afraid that she doesn't have the right clothes, so I wanted to see if there were any suitable clothes or accessories for her." Qin Luofei picked up a few hairpins, looked unsatisfied, and then put them down.
He didn't know why, but Xi Hua didn't like concubine Ning. She pouted and said: "Miss, you are kind."
The concubine Ning had already sent Yue'er over to urge him, saying that the concubine Ning would invite him over. Qin Luofei couldn't care less about tidying up the room. She ordered Xi Ju, "Xi Ju, take out two pieces of my exquisite jewellery and give them to Sister Ning."
This was the first time since the Emperor ascended the throne that he flipped through the concubine Ning's signboard. The concubine Ning was overjoyed and didn't know how to dress up now.
Qin Luofei guessed silently, Ling Tai was getting bigger and bigger, her matriarch's position was still too low, and taking advantage of this time's service, the concubine Ning's position had also risen.
Since the Imperial Consort Leng was out of favour, it was a good thing for all the women in the harem to share the rain and dew equally.
concubine would often go to Emperor Ming's palace to sleep, so concubine Ning had been dressing up ever since lunch.
Qin Luofei took the jewelry and a purple colored dress train that she had never worn before, and entered the concubine Ning's room.
concubine Ning was a beauty like a flower in the first place. He knew that he would definitely see the emperor today and take care of him. Dressed in a sleek gold and Tirian's brocade coat, Yun Jin was wearing a long, thin, tawny skirt. The hair hairpin he wore on her head was the gold bracelet he had received yesterday, the chrysanthemum-patterned enamel step shake.
Palace women who have not reached the rank cannot wear step shake s, but this step shake tassel is unlike the palace tassels, it is a type of tassels used by my family, and it does not exceed the rules.
"Daffodil Dayflower, go get my cicada feather veil and that jade hairpin."
The two maid s were fixing the hair on the side of concubine Ning's head, but concubine Ning had never been satisfied with them.
"Damn it, where are your usual cooking skills?" concubine Ning's face was filled with anger as he took the Ruyi Butterfly hairpin out of his hair.
Qin Luofei parted the curtains, walked to concubine Ning's side with a smile, and said, "Elder sister, as long as you regard the Emperor as your husband, your elder sister is so beautiful, your husband will definitely love your elder sister to death."
"Sister." concubine Ning's heart was broken by Qin Luofei, his face slightly flushed.
Qin Luofei took the wooden brush in maid's hands and took off the hairpins on his head. She divided his hair into several strands, and with every turn of the hair, it became a spiral, then she stuck the hairpin she brought along at his temples. The thin pearl tassels half covered his forehead, adding to his beauty.
concubine Ning looked at the girl in the mirror. She was extremely beautiful, and the tassels gave her a coquettish look.
concubine Ning was outstanding dressed like this, but still lacking a bit of charm.
Qin Luofei personally wrapped herself around concubine Ning's waist. A muslin as thin as a cicada's wing immediately caused concubine Ning's waist to become even more graceful and attractive. Qin Luofei then took the hairpin and placed it on concubine Ning's temple. The hairpin's color matched her skin color, causing her to look even more beautiful.
"Little sister, your cooking skills are excellent. Is it just this hairpin?"
Then, she smiled and said: "There's interest on all of this. It's only right that Big Sis lifted up her position, got the rewards, and wants to return them all to Little Sister. Big Sis shouldn't even think about taking advantage of me."
"Our Qin Yu Nu has a good tongue. Even if we, your concubines, want to renege on our debt, we cannot." Yue'er, who was beside concubine Ning, took out a handkerchief that was a treasure of concubine Ning, stuffed it into concubine Ning's sleeves, and joked around.
concubine Ning knew that these two items were worth a lot of money and couldn't help but feel touched. He held Qin Luofei's hand, gave a charming smile, and said: "Thank you, Little Sister. If there comes a day, this Big Sister will definitely not forget Little Sister's good intentions."
"Elder sister is too polite." Qin Luofei supported concubine Ning.
concubine Ning continued, "Little sister, you can't help big sister like this in the future either. The palace spends a lot of money on things, and it's not like my little sister brought a gold mountain to the palace. It's better to save it. " Although concubine Ning scolded him, his eyes were brimming with happiness. He really liked these exquisite things.
"Big sister really thinks differently." Qin Luofei covered her lips and laughed.
concubine Ning held Qin Luofei's hand and said in a low voice: "Thank you, sister.
She was naturally willing to do more things that would make her good sister sad. Furthermore, with the concubine Ning's beauty, it was not impossible for her to be favoured again. This was a good thing for Ling Tai.
"Big sister, little sister doesn't need to do any favors, as long as big sister doesn't have to work so hard. "Elder sister should take advantage of the time still to rest properly. Her face is rosy red, and only then will she be able to receive the emperor's love." Seeing concubine Ning half leaning on the imperial concubine bed with her eyes closed, Qin Luofei finally left the room with Sunset Flower.
"Miss, why are you so concerned about concubine Ning?" In her impression of Miss Daihua, she had always been cold and aloof. She had never treated anyone well in the mansion, but to this Miss concubine Ning, she had put in great effort.
Qin Luofei looked at Ling Tai who was still bitterly training. Naturally, she did it for him, as long as concubine Ning doted on him, it was natural for her to treat concubine Ning better.
At such a young age, Ling Tai's personality was already very tenacious. Sweat had already drenched his clothes, but he still did not relax at all.
Qin Luofei shook her head slightly, took out the kernels from her sleeve, and smiled at Ling Tai: "Ling Tai, drink some water. The weather is too hot, don't get sunstroke."
Ling Tai also liked the Qin Yu Nu a lot, but his personality remained calm and collected. At such a young age, he was already as cold as his father.
"Thank you, Qin Yu Nu." Ling Tai took the teacup and finished it in one gulp.
Qin Luofei pulled him over and helped wipe the sweat off his face. Ling Tai dodged, his eyes showing a trace of shyness. He took the kernels from Qin Luofei's hands, wiped it two times, and then placed the kernels into his own sleeve. He said: "Qin Yu Nu's kernels is dirty, I'll wash them before returning them to you."
Qin Luofei shook her head helplessly. His temper was similar to that of that person when he was young. She remembered the first time she followed her grandfather into the palace. At that time, the current emperor was only the same size as Ling Tai, and when she saw that he had broken his arm and was going to bandage it, he also coldly rejected her and wanted to do it himself.
It must have been in her previous life that she had fallen in love with that man. She had married him afterwards, but had never mentioned that incident. She knew that he was the son of the Empress Dowager, but he did not know who she was.
Seeing Ling Tai, Qin Luofei was filled with emotion.
Qin Luofei didn't look at Luo Ziyan, but Luo Ziyan brought her personal palace maid and the silk and jewelry bestowed to her by the emperor's grace.
"Little Sister Qin." Luo Ziyan entered the courtyard to see Qin Luofei and Xi Hua watching a little boy practice sword.
Although Luo Ziyan had never seen Ling Tai before, she could guess that he was Emperor Ming's only son, Ling Tai.
When Qin Luofei saw Luo Ziyan looking at her, she went up to him affectionately and pulled her hand. She looked at her surroundings and smiled: "Elder sister, you have become even more beautiful after entering the palace."
After being pampered by Luo Ziyan, her face looked even more charming than before.
Luo Ziyan blushed a little at what Qin Luofei had said, lowered her eyes, and said in anger, "Little sister, are you good or bad, you only know how to mock big sister."
"I was wrong, I apologize to my sister." Qin Luofei pulled Luo Ziyan's hand and entered the house.
Luo Ziyan and the other newly entered concubine s all had their own courtyards. Seeing Qin Luofei living in the side hall, without any sunlight, there was a musty smell in the room.
"Little sister, you seem to be used to it." Luo Ziyan took the Plum Blossom Water that Flowers brought and took a sip.
Qin Luofei took a closer look at Luo Ziyan. Seeing her blushing red cheeks and snow-white skin, she knew that her days in the palace were quite comfortable.
"Fortunately, the concubine Ning is very good to his sister."
Luo Ziyan was relieved when she knew that Qin Luofei was someone with tricks up her sleeve.
The two of them chatted for a while.
"I heard that yesterday, it was Concubine Qin who served us again, and little sister saw her before." Luo Ziyan was no exception. Moreover, that person really had some tricks up his sleeve. It was no wonder that a bland girl like Luo Ziyan would secretly get jealous for him.
Qin Luofei shook her head slightly, and said, "The wealth of the women in the palace is only the stuff of the past, there's no need to be so fussy about it."
Qin Luofei's words were a reminder to Luo Ziyan.
Luo Ziyan gently stroked the hairpin at the side of her head, and let out a cold cry, as though she was speaking into a spring. She slowly said: "You are right, little sister."
Qin Luofei saw that Luo Ziyan was not speaking the truth, and knew that her obsession with that person was currently too deep, not something she could change with just a few words. Everyone had their own fate, so she did not need to force it.
"Sister is talking to you, and you actually forgot about the big matter. The Queen is treating all her little sisters to tea in her Cool Hall in the afternoon, why don't we go together?"
