Chapter 037, Incompetent Spy

Lin Xianyu rested for two days before going to Cining Palace to pay tribute to the Empress Dowager.

Although the Ganqing Palace's eyeliner reported that Concubine Dong E did not serve the emperor very hard, the empress dowager looked at the little face that was obviously thinner and thought that Shulu's sub-song was more true. Concubine Dong E had just been a little sharp-tongued, and she was so sarcastic, and she still did her best to take care of the emperor.

But Lin Xianyu's appearance was in the eyes of Concubine Shu, that was, her salted fish sister must have been wronged by the emperor's uncle, so she lost weight.

I have to say that the latter's guess is closer to the facts.

The Queen Mother looked gentle and said very kindly: "Thank you for your hard work to serve the emperor these days."

Lin Xian and Yu Qian said smoothly: "The Empress Dowager is so serious. She dare not say that she has worked hard for the emperor."

The Empress Dowager looked at Lin Xianyu's simple face, showing a look of regret, but said, "You have the intention to serve the emperor and have a good character. If you can give birth to a grandson for the Ai family..."

Lin Xianyu secretly said, "I am a broken face, I just want to live a peaceful life in the palace." - So don't bother me, can't I let me eat and drink and be a salted fish?!

The Empress Dowager didn’t really want this concubine Dong E to be favored. Is the Empress Dowager still not clear about what kind of woman his son likes?

The Queen Mother sighed quietly, "If everyone is like you, there will be no such trouble in the palace."

Although Dong E Wanyan died, the competition for favor in the harem will never stop. Lin Xianyu only heard that the concubine Wusu fell a few days ago and almost had a miscarriage.

After chatting with the Queen Mother for a while, it was already noon when Lin Xianyu returned to Chuxiu Palace.

Lin Xianyu leaned on the Luohan couch next to the window, drinking milk tea and eating snacks, and reading this book "Xu Xiake's Travels" in his hand to pass the time.

Ancient books were all vertically typed, and there were no punctuation marks, which seemed to be very difficult!

But there is no way, I can only make do with it.

It was warm and warm in spring. Lin Xianyu began to doze off as he watched.

The palace maid Shulu quietly took the blanket and carefully covered her little master. Although the little master's temperament is more straightforward and offensive than when he first entered the palace, he treats them and his servants very well. Shulu sighed, but it was a pity that she was appointed by the Empress Dowager from the beginning and dared not not to obey the empress dowager's instructions. What she could do was to say something nicer.

When Lin Xianyu was sleeping in a daze, he heard Shulu’s cheerful voice: “My master, wake up! The father-in-law Dexi in front of the emperor is here!”

The eunuch in front of the imperial chief? Dexi? Why are she here?

Lin Xianyu's sleepy eyes were full of confusion, "Oh, then... let her come in."

Shulu hurriedly helped his little master up, "You might as well do your makeup first!"

Lin Xianyu touched his loose flag bun... and took a nap. His hair was a little loose, so it was time to tidy up.

I had to get up and go to the dressing table and let Shulu let her little heads go. Shulu's hands were like butterflies, and they were combed again in a short while.

Because she didn't plan to go out or meet people today, Lin Xianyu didn't wear any jewelry. So Shulu quickly opened the jewelry box, took out a golden silk peony bead hairpin, and inserted it on Lin Xianyu's two little hands, "The peony hairpin awarded by the Empress Dowager is really gorgeous."

Lin Xianyu was speechless: Isn’t it just that I have to dress up well when I see a eunuch?

Next, Shulu took a little green Ruyi hairpin to embellish her temples, and then picked a pair of gold-slimmed silk jade rabbit pounding earrings - Lin Xianyu only had one feeling about this thing: Is it really he so heavy! If you think of this large-sized, pure gold earring, you should lie in the jewelry box as a display to appreciate it!

After tidying her up from head to toe, Shulu politely invited Dexike, the former general manager of the imperial court.

Dexi still had the same happy face, "I wish my wife a blessing to the concubine. The emperor said that the concubine had worked hard before, so he specially gave him two boxes of lake pens, four tribute ink, ten knives of mature pronunciation, and one ancient inkstone in the clear mud."

When Lin Xianyu heard that they were all high-end goods, he hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you for your grace."

——This dog emperor is quite generous. His pen, ink, paper and inkstone are the best products. There are more than a dozen pens in a large box, with different large, medium and small regular scripts, and both wolf hair and sheep hair and purple hair.

Needless to say, the tribute ink is all top-notch Hui ink, a whole set of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemums, just in the four directions.

Needless to say, it is the most suitable for calligraphy and fine brushwork. One knife is one white sheet, and ten knifes are one thousand sheets, which doesn’t sound too much. But the papers of this era are all made by hand, and the craftsmanship of rice paper is even more sophisticated and complex, which is not affordable for ordinary people.

Chengni ancient inkstones are even more valuable and can be directly taken to the auction house.

After receiving the reward, Lin Xianyu did not forget to stuff a silver ingot to the eunuch Dexi as a errand fee.

Dexi's smile immediately became brighter, "The emperor had been dealing with the backlog of memorials a few days ago, and now he has finally got time to praise the concubine's merits for serving the disease. Oh, by the way, the emperor is discussing important matters with the ministers at this time. The concubine does not have to rush to thank him. It will not be too late to go again tomorrow afternoon."

Lin Xianyu's smile suddenly disappeared, and she almost forgot. After receiving the reward, she had to thank him!

Looking at these top four treasures of study, Lin Xianyu really wanted to say, "Do I want these things?"

Well, I think I know, how can you just want the things given by the emperor be if you say you don’t want them?

"I understand." Lin Xianyu had no choice but to ask Shu Luke to politely send Dexi away.

Shulu was so happy that she sent Dexi out of the Yimen Gate of Chuxiu Palace, and then quickly returned, smiling so hard that she couldn't see her eyes: "The little master is serving the disease with all his heart, and now he has touched the holy heart."

After hearing this, Lin Xianyu was despaired and she quickly pointed to the pit on her face, asking Shulu not to have a big dream of spring and autumn.

Shulu said, "Actually, the scars on the little master's face are not very deep. If you add a few more layers of powder, it should be able to cover it up."

Lin Xianyu shook her head. In modern times, she didn't like heavy makeup, not to mention that the rouge and water powder in this era were not waterproof, so she would just be full of sweat. If she had light makeup, it would be fine. If she had sweaty, she would be like a ghost.

"Don't think about those who have nothing. Am I living a good life now?" Lin Xianyu was very satisfied with such a life, just asking the dog emperor to stay away from him.

Shulu whispered: "Actually... the little master is good at learning and not inferior to the late imperial concubine."

Lin Xianyu didn't know how talented Dong Ewanyan was, but... she raised her eyebrows: "The imperial concubine is favored not just because of her talent. If she is as beautiful as a salty person, then even if she is very talented, it would be useless!"

Look at the favored concubines and concubines in the palace, who are not Huarong Yuemei? Before her face was numb, her appearance was only average in the palace. Now she has scars and only four looks, which is not as good as the modern public face!

"And the emperor said before that it was for the Empress Dowager that he wanted to reward me." Lin Xianyu said lightly, "So, don't think about it all day long."

Shulu looked gloomy and said no more.

Lin Xianyu was also convinced. Isn’t Shulu the queen mother’s person? Isn’t it good to concentrate on doing her own spy errands?

She is not doing her job well all day and always encourages her to compete for favor!!
