Chapter 30, Ning Concubine's Birthday
Yao Jiaxin is weak in body and yin deficiency, qi deficiency, blood deficiency, kidney deficiency, and deficiency, and is weak everywhere.
My aunt was always so disorderly that it was impossible to predict. On Ningpin's birthday, my aunt arrived without saying a word, and it was even more abrupt than His Majesty the Fourth Master.
Yao Jiaxin was so painful that she couldn't straighten her waist. She was soft on the couch. Three or four soup kids were stuffed into the quilt. She had a hot sleeve in her belly. A hot charcoal basin was burned again in the bedroom. Thanks to the Fourth Master, her charcoal was doubled, and the red charcoal was available for use.
Su Yu brought a big cup of hot red dates and ginger tea, "Young master can't go out like this."
Yao Jiaxin glanced at the moon-white peach butterfly flag suit that had just been made on the rosewood shelf, and sighed. She originally planned to wear new clothes and go out for a walk, but now...
She called Wang Yicheng in, "I am really unhappy. You take the gift to Chuxiu Palace. Remember to avenge him and consecrate him."
Wang Yicheng responded, "Just Master, just worry."
Chuxiu Palace.
After so many years, Ningpin's birthday has not been so lively. Needless to mention those Maopin and his nobles, they often stayed there and agreed that even Concubine Qi had come. It is logical that Concubine Qi is the third-rank concubine, so she doesn't need to come to Ningpin's birthday in person. Send someone to give her a birthday gift, which is already giving her face.
It is obvious that Concubine Qi’s target is Concubine Yao. Concubine Qi wanted to see how charming the old nobleman who suddenly received the favor of the emperor was. But he was a sick man. The Central Palace had previously exempted her from paying tribute. Yao Jia didn’t like to go out and couldn’t even touch her. As for going to Yongshou Palace in person? How could Concubine Qi give Yao Jiaxin such a face? It’s too expensive!
There are also a few young nobles who often agree, and they all dress up very well, with the purpose of comparing the old nobles.
As a result, the others didn't come!
The birthday boy Ningpin's face was a little uneasy.
Concubine Qi's old face became even more gloomy: "Oh, you're so arrogant?" Concubine Qi glanced at Yao Jia's former master, Concubine Mao, and said, "Was Concubine Yao so in the Xianfu Palace?"
In terms of seniority, Concubine Mao is actually older than Concubine Qi, but Concubine Qi has two sons and one daughter, and all the children of the emperor are from Chengqian Palace. It is not guaranteed that the prince will come from Chengqian Palace in the future.
No matter how hard he dared to be arrogant in front of Concubine Qi, he had to smile: "Concubine Qi, Concubine Yao has always been weak and sick, I think it's because of his discomfort."
At this moment, Wang Yicheng hurried over, "I would like to pay my respects to Concubine Qi, to Concubine Ning and Concubine Mao." After asking, Wang Yicheng hurriedly explained to the person involved, Concubine Ning: "Report to Concubine Ning, our young master suddenly arrived in his letter and was not clean, and he might run into a noble person, so he could not come in person. He specially sent a birthday gift and asked the Empress to forgive him."
In the eyes of ancient people, things like my aunt were indeed unlucky.
It was indeed a reasonable thing to do because of this reason. Ning Pin's face was considered decent.
Maopin looked calm and composed, "Yes, Guiren Yao has always been in a difficult time, and this suddenly got ahead of schedule. I guess he was feeling uncomfortable and tight."
Wang Yicheng nodded: "It's still Empress Mao who knows our little master best. The little master is so painful that he can't get out of bed."
Maopin sighed, looking pity: "It's so pitiful."
Ning Pin smiled and said, "Gui Ren Yao is weak, everyone in the palace knows, how could I blame her?" As he said, Ning Pin looked at the gift brought by Wang Yicheng. A long big brocade box with obvious satin materials inside. As for the other four square brocade box, he couldn't guess anything.
Wang Yicheng quickly beat Qian'er: "Thank you for your understanding of Concubine Ning. If the Empress has no other instructions, I will return to Yongshou Palace to report my life."
Ning Ping waved her hand: "Go."
As soon as Wang Yicheng left, Li Chang in Concubine Qi's palace laughed and cheered: "I don't know what gift Yao Guiren gave, but Concubine Ning refused to let us open our eyes, so let us open our eyes!" - Li Chang was not favored at first, but because of the same surname as Concubine Qi, he became a high branch of Li Fangfu Jin when he was in the residence.
Ning Ping naturally didn't want to open the birthday gift in front of so many people, because in previous years, Yao Jia gave some shabby birthday gifts. This year... Although Yao Jia suddenly got favored, she probably didn't have any good things in her hand. If the gifts were not expensive enough, it was certainly the face of Yao Jia, but Ning Ping, the birthday star, was not good-looking.
However, Concubine Qi became interested, "Pin Ning, then just open it up, it's not a shameful thing." Before Concubine Qi's despicable love was still weak, when Concubine Ning Wu entered the mansion, she suddenly took her favor. Concubine Ning had always suspected that her miscarriage was inseparable from Concubine Qi, but because of her difference in position, she had to endure it.
Ning Pin covered the corner of her mouth with a veil, and a trace of anger flashed through her eyes. She had to instruct the palace maids around her: "Open it."
The Sifang Brocade Box was first opened, and there was a set of pretty exquisite silverware, a silver pot and two wine cups.
Seeing this, Concubine Qi couldn't help but laugh, "I'm so embarrassed to take this kind of thing out and give it to someone?"
Maopin suppressed his smile and said, "Don't blame Queen Qi, Concubine Yao has no private house. It is already a waste of money to be able to make such a set of silverware."
This concert was a striking slap in the face of Ningpin, the birthday star.
Maobin admired Ning Ping's ugly face and became happier: "Sister Ning Ping, don't be angry."
"You--" Ning Ping was so angry that her mouth was tilted halfway. If it were said that Yao Guiren's silverware only made her face dull, Mao Ping's words really made her feel angry. Ning Ping just wanted to slap Mao Ping's old face!
The palace maid looked at the box that was probably filled with satin and asked carefully: "Empress, do you still need to open that brocade box?"
Ning Ping had a cold face: "No need, just put it in the warehouse!"
But Maopin was unwilling to let the show end so soon, "Sister, it's all open, why bother to hide it!" As he said that, Maopin stepped forward and actually started it himself!
"You!" Ning Ping was so angry that her nose was smoking. "Chuxiu Palace is not your Xianfu Palace, and it's not your turn to make the decision!"
However, when the lid of the brocade box was opened, all the people who watched the show were stunned, especially Maopin.
The golden silk satin in the brocade box was clearly woven with gold thread. Facing the sunlight shining outside the window, it was shaking gold, and Maopin's eyes couldn't see clearly.
In Ningpin's palace, Wang agreed to let out a delicate exclaim: "Is this kesi satin? The color is really noble!" Wang agreed to step forward quickly, take a closer look, and smiled and said to Ningpin: "Empress, this is a flower-filled pattern with dragons, so noble and grand! "
Now, Ningpin's face was full of glory, but Maopin's old face was a little uneasy. She originally planned to laugh at Ningpin, but now she has become a joke!
Ning Ping's lips curled up slightly, "Sister Mao Ping guessed what material it was, so she couldn't wait to take a look first?"
Maopin's face turned pale and white. Ning Pin's words simply regarded her as a local bun who had never seen good things!
Concubine Qi murmured in a low voice: "It's so generous to take action..." Concubine Qi looked bored, and she said lightly: "Okay, I still have the common affairs to be busy with. I'll go back now, so you can have fun."
