The Empress Dowager Li had clearly displayed her fondness for Wang Rong; all the Imperial Consort Candidate were jealous and envious at the same time. Wang Zhixi came to find Wang Rong He, "Big sister is still angry at me?"
"If it wasn't for me, my sister wouldn't be in the empress dowager's presence right now." Wang Zhixi was also upset, after all, she did not expect her Majesty to listen to Wang Rong and her zither play, giving her a chance to express herself for free. However, her expression was still very wronged, "Big sister, please forgive me."
"I don't blame you." Wang Rong He said, "It's just that my sister remembers that if I can't write two kings in one stroke, you can't remember it when you put the title of being a bully on my head."
"Why does Elder Sister have to be so serious?" I always speak without thinking. " Wang Zhixi said as she covered her face with her hands.
My sister is a smart person. She knows when to talk and when not to. In the palace, a single wrong word meant death. It doesn't matter if you or I die, but if it affects my family, I'm afraid I won't even have the face to be reincarnated underground. " Wang Rong He said.
"Elder sister, why are you scaring me? I'll remember. I won't dare to do it again. " Wang Zhixi said with teary eyes.
"Don't show such an expression in front of me. It's enough." Wang Rong He said, "Since coming to the palace, I have tolerated you many times. You should be satisfied, right? According to our tacit understanding from the past, if you anger me, you will be the one to end up suffering. Seeing that there are only ten days left until the final outcome, are you really going to waste your time on me? "
"Elder sister." Wang Zhixi shouted.
"Don't leave my place with tears in your eyes, don't spread what kind of stubborn mouth this big sister of mine is, don't pity you, you are beautiful, everyone respects you, you will have a good future in the future, don't provoke me, this barefoot person. If I am determined to mess with you, you will not be able to bear the consequences. " Wang Rong He said.
Wang Zhixi's face instantly changed, the handkerchief at the corner of her eyes was pressed, at least she did not need to use that bored person's numb tone to call Wang Ronghe, "It's just like what big sister said, you cannot write two kings. Since we sisters have entered the palace, we must take care of each other in the future."
"Sure. I don't know if I'll need you to take care of me in the future. " Wang Rong smiled and said, "When His Majesty dotes on you, remember to let him walk towards me."
Wang Zhixi choked on her words and got up to leave.
When Zhang Cheng came to the Chuxiu Palace, every girl in the Chuxiu Palace received a gift from the Emperor. Only Wang Rong and this, Zhang Cheng personally gave this to Er Hu. Miss Wang, this is His Majesty's reward for you, Second Hu. "
Wang Rong He took it over and looked at it, and saw that it was a good erhu with gold plates stuck to its skin and gems embedded into its head. The entire thing was shining with precious gems, and Wang Rong He gently caressed the zither and mumbled, "Erhu is the sound of wandering, the sound of the earth is not like this, it's out of place to wear gold and silver."
Zhang Cheng did not hear Wang Rong He's words, but seeing his expression, he knew that Wang Rong He's expression was not good, and could only smile apologetically, "His Majesty said that Miss Er Hu is good, there was not a second Hu in the warehouse, so I hope you can help me with this."
"Thank you for your grace, your majesty." Wang Rong He said.
"It's good that you like her." Zhang Cheng said, but after a moment of inspiration, he continued, "If Miss does not like this kind of way, I can make sure you succeed."
"Thank you, Eunuch, but there's no need." Wang Yunhe said, "Erhu's voice has nothing to do with its own decoration. If you pay attention to decorations, then I will be the one looking down. "
"My lady's cultivation level is high." Zhang Cheng said, this time he would not make the decision to ask Wang Rong to return a gift to him, just as Er Hu was about to leave, Wang Rong indicated for Xi Tao to send the gift to Zhang Cheng, and gave him a money bag.
"What is this?" Zhang Cheng did not accept it.
"This is what the girl means. The girl knows it's been hard on you these days. If you don't accept it, then you're looking down on girls. " Xi Tao said softly.
Zhang Cheng looked at her, "How come you haven't moved your mouth away from the Chuxiu Palace when you have such a mouth?"
"Fine, I'll take it. You give it to Miss Xie in my stead." Zhang Cheng said, "You are lucky enough to serve this lady, in the future, there will be benefits for you."
Since Wang Rong and the Empress Dowager Li had personally witnessed it, naturally there were other palace maid s who came to watch the show. When the others came closer to Wang Rong, Xi Tao stopped moving forward.
Wang Rong looked at the palace maid that had brought her hot water, what was her name again? Forget it, it wasn't important. Xi Tao waved for her to come over as they were walking around the corridor in the afternoon, "Why didn't I see you yesterday?"
"This servant has something else to do." Xi Tao lowered her head and said.
"Did they bully you?" Wang Rong asked.
Xi Tao shook her head.
"Then you don't want to serve me anymore?" Wang Rong asked. Do you dislike me? "
"Miss." Xi Tao said anxiously. This servant is only afraid that the lady despises me, so how could I possibly despise the lady? "
"I don't dislike you, I don't dislike you at all times. If I am fortunate enough to be able to live alone in a palace, would you be willing to follow me? " Wang Rong He said.
"As long as lady doesn't mind my stupidity, this servant is willing." Xi Tao said excitedly.
"That's fine, just follow me from now on. If someone asks you to serve them, just tell them I said so and only let them serve you. If they don't want to, then let them find me." Wang Rong He said. There were not many Imperial Consort Candidate left now, and the ones serving them had already stabilized. If she purposely wanted to make a move on someone else's well-used palace maid, it would be a provocation.
"Miss." Xi Tao was moved to tears.
I've made a few hairpins. You can take them to Andersen later and let him play with them." Wang Rong went back to her room to take a nap. When the wedding peach brought her tea, she handed over a small sandalwood box and quietly ordered her to go to bed …
Xi Tao withdrew her body and walked out.
He did not dare to go to the imperial palace to look for Zhang Cheng. He only stayed in Zhang Cheng's room and spent a bit of silver to have the little eunuch of the Qianqing Palace go find Zhang Cheng for him. Zhang Cheng then returned. What's the rush? Didn't I tell you to come see me tonight? "
"This is great news." "The lady asked me to send this to His Majesty."
"What is this?" Zhang Cheng took over the box and saw that there were four book hairpins in it. Not daring to pick it up, Zhang Cheng gently flipped it to make sure that there was nothing else inside. This was made by the girl herself? "
"That's right." "This is the first time that this young lady has taken the initiative to offer her goodwill to Your Majesty. Perhaps this young lady has been enlightened."
"It's good that you're enlightened. Everyone in the world wants to please His Majesty. What is she trying to do? His Majesty is still in high spirits now, and she can do as she pleases. But when his Majesty's heart changes one day, it will be too late for tears. " Zhang Cheng said. "He placed the sandalwood box against his body." Come on, we'll take note of this. "After the title of the young lady has been conferred on you, you will have your reward."
"I wonder if this little one will have the chance to continue serving this lady in the future." An Dexun obsequiously held Zhang Cheng's shoulders.
"You wish to continue serving the lady?" Zhang Cheng said. "Then go and try to please the girl, it's useless to massage your shoulders or back with me."
"Miss is truly a rare person that is easy to serve. I don't even have a chance to show off." Ande said with a bitter face.
"Be at ease and don't make any mistakes. This lady only knows you well in Chuxiu Palace. As long as Miss asks you to serve her, this matter will be settled." Zhang Cheng said, "If you don't know how to please this lady, then please please flatter that palace maid beside you, what is the name of the one who often serves you?"
"Xi Tao, her name is Xi Tao." Ande, by the way.
"Yes." Go and fawn on Xi Tao, she can speak up for you when the time comes. " Zhang Cheng said, "Alright, stop wasting my time, I have to go serve His Majesty now."
Zhang Cheng presented the sandalwood box to the Emperor. As Zhu Yijun was practicing his calligraphy, he took a glance at it and asked, "Where did this ugly box come from?"
"Your Majesty, this box isn't important. The things inside are the important things." Zhang Cheng said.
"Since when did you learn to keep me in suspense?" Zhu Yijun laughed, and opened the box to look, inside was the hairpin, it looked like he had cut himself, and all the corners had been dealt with well, on top was an empty pavilion, and below, there were a few words written on the square, "Book mountain has roads as the route."
"The sea of learning is boundless and bitter."
"If you don't think before you learn, you will be confused."
"It's good to think and not learn."
There was nothing special about the hairpin, it was only better than the delicate handwriting. Zhu Yijun naturally recognized Wang Yunzhi's words, "Did she do it?"
"Yes, Miss Wang remembered the 'Erhu' that His Majesty gave her and specially made a book hairpin to send over." Zhang Cheng said.
"She has such thoughts?" Wang Rong He said, "Every time I see you, it's you again. Hurry up and leave, I don't want to have anything to do with you. Does she have such a little girl's heart?"
"The Miss Wang is currently in the palace. In the future, we will have to rely on the Emperor to survive." Zhang Cheng said.
"I don't like her being this smart." Although Zhu Yijun said that, he still kept the hairpin. After all, Wang Rong's words still made people feel refreshed.
Imperial Lower Consort Guo leaned lazily on the brick bed, "Who did the king summon today?"
"Today, His Majesty does not have a green card, he's alone in the Qianqing Palace." The Great palace maid of the Imperial Lower Consort Guo, Lura, said, "Empress need not worry, after the Imperial Consort Candidate entered the palace, His Majesty rarely visited the imperial harem, so she was summoned to the harem."
"Sigh, the newbie has already entered the palace. I don't know how much pity I'll get for this old Yan." The Imperial Lower Consort Guo said.
"Empress, His Majesty is thinking of old friendships, and this servant is staring coldly. This time, in the Imperial Consort Candidate, there are few who can surpass the Empress." "No," Lura said.
"Not many, then there's more." Imperial Lower Consort Guo said, "Women should act as if they enjoy themselves, and naturally be the number one person in the heart of the person enjoying themselves."
"Empress, that Zhou Yuting is not enough to cause trouble. As long as we reveal a little bit of her actions in Chuxiu Palace to the empress dowager, there will be no turning back." "That Wang Zhixi, on the other hand, has taken care of her business and missed the opportunity to make a move."
"Imperial Consort Candidate should have a lot of time to go to the Peace Palace now, right?" Imperial Lower Consort Guo suddenly asked.
"Yes, every other day." "No," Lura said.
The corner of Imperial Lower Consort Guo's mouth curled up, "Then palace maid of Chuxiu Palace must properly tell Imperial Consort Candidate of Esteemed Empress Dowager's preferences, and must definitely help Imperial Consort Candidate get the empress dowager's favor."
