After the maids removed the bowls and chopsticks, Nangong Yue told about her experience in the palace today. As for the treatment of the fifth prince, she just evaded the matter and said that the queen wanted to invite her grandfather to try it.
Logically speaking, it should be something to be happy for her daughter to have the queen's blue eyes, but Nangong Mu frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking. In contrast, Mrs. Lin was obviously very happy, full of confidence in her father, and said excitedly: "Sister Yue, with your grandfather's medical skills, you will definitely be able to heal the Fifth Prince. Although your grandfather has His whereabouts are erratic, but your uncle must have a way to find your grandfather, sister Yue, don't worry, I will find a way to invite your grandfather to the capital for your mother..."
"Great!" Nangong Yue clasped her palms together happily, showing a look of anticipation, "When my grandfather comes, Yue'er can ask his old man about medical skills." Nangong Yue's anticipation is not feigned. For several years, my grandfather can be said to be the person who loves me the most after my mother left.
"Sister Yue," Nangong Mu said suddenly and seriously: "Since the empress has told you not to mention this matter to anyone except your father and mother, you should keep this matter hidden. This involves the royal family, and the water is very deep , if there is any branch in it, maybe it will turn a good thing into a bad thing... "
Although there were reprimands and warnings in his words, there was concern underneath.
Every time she saw such a father, Nangong Yue felt very uncomfortable. If she hadn't been concerned about her mother, she would have exploded. Heh, men are the most ruthless. When they are nice to you, they pretend to be affectionate;
Her heart was as turbulent as waves, but her appearance was calm as usual, "Yue'er knows."
Nangong Xin was listening to them talking, looking at his sister for a while, and his father for a while, and he was confused. Seeing that no one paid attention to him, he couldn't help raising his hand: "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone!"
"Brother, of course I believe you." Nangong Yue said with a smile, and then made a mysterious expression, "Brother, I brought you a gift from the palace!"
"Really?" Nangong Xin's eyes lit up, her expression very excited.
"..." Hearing the words, Mrs. Lin hesitated to speak, wanting to say that the gift from the Queen Mother cannot be given away at will. If it is seen by others, I am afraid that there is a crime of disrespect to the royal family. However, Nangong Yue took out a pink embroidered pouch from her arms, and after she let go of the drawstring, a piece of delicate rose puff pastry appeared in front of their eyes, but the puff pastry on the outside was slightly broken.
Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Nangong Yue pulled the handkerchief towards her elder brother, and deliberately lowered her voice and said: "Brother, I secretly took this from the snacks given by the empress. You must not tell others. I only took one piece for you. "
"Yeah." Nangong Xin nodded hastily, "Sister, you are so kind! You are the best sister! I will never tell anyone." Then, he picked up the piece of rose cake, took a bite, and was intoxicated The squinting eyes... That cute expression made the whole family laugh.
After chatting with her parents and elder brother for a while, Nangong Yue went back to the Black Bamboo Courtyard to rest.
Because she had enough rest the day before, Nangong Yue had breakfast early the next day, and went to Rong'an Hall with her parents and elder brother to pay her respects to Mrs. Su.
It was just dawn at this time, according to the usual practice, they came early, but today the other rooms seemed to have reached a consensus, and they all came to Rong'an Hall early. In just half a stick of incense, Rong'an Hall was packed with people.
Everyone knows that the Su family received a reward from the Empress Dowager yesterday, and presumably they will distribute part of the reward to each house today. Their conjecture was also correct, Su Shi had already ordered the maids and mother-in-law to bring in boxes of rewards.
Su's body is almost new, with turmeric twine branches and lotus patterns embroidered with satin-faced lapels, a satin skirt with red gold sprinkled flowers, and a rosary in hand.
Seeing the boxes of rewards, Huang was already jealous, and couldn't help but said: "Mother, this is the reward from the empress yesterday? My daughter-in-law has been married to the Nangong family for ten years, and this is the first time I have the honor to see the imperial gift..."
She wanted to continue talking endlessly, but was frightened into silence by Su Shi's look.
Mrs. Su looked around the crowd, and briefly recounted yesterday's experience: "Yesterday, thanks to the favor of the emperor and the empress, I entered the palace with Mrs. Zhao, sister Cheng, and sister Yue. The empress said , Your Majesty thinks that my Nangong family has made great contributions to presenting treasures, which shows that you are loyal to the court. Your majesty is very happy, and rewarded me with some things..."
Afterwards, Mrs. Su quickly distributed the rewards to each house, and Mrs. Huang immediately smiled, and Nangong Lin couldn't wait to open the box now to see what happened.
Mrs. Zhao scanned everyone's expressions one by one, and finally stopped on Nangong Yue's indifferent face, thinking of what she saw and heard yesterday. A trace of unwillingness flashed in Zhao's eyes, and then he smiled gently, and said to Nangong Yue: "Sister Yue, thanks to the love of the empress, she has given you a lot of rewards. You have to keep the jewelry that the empress rewarded you yesterday. , this thing that the Empress Dowager rewarded must not be lost."
This sounded like an aunt's kind reminder to her niece, but Nangong Yue sneered secretly: "The eldest aunt is really calculating! Don't mention the empress, she only rewarded herself, and deliberately used vague words to make people mistakenly think that the eldest sister Nangong Cheng and He also received the queen's reward. When others hear this, they will only think that they are rewarded because of the honor of their family!
But I couldn't say it on purpose, I was the only one who received a special reward from the Queen!
Sure enough, Zhao's goal was achieved. All of a sudden, the envious eyes of Huang's family and Nangong Lin from the third room were all on Nangong Yue and Nangong Cheng, and most of them were jealousy and unwillingness. Nangong Cheng is the eldest daughter of the eldest son, so she deserves some honors, but Nangong Yue...
Nangong Lin stared at Nangong Yue fiercely. Damn it, if it wasn't for the damned Xuanhuang Linglong Ginseng, grandmother would not have brought her into the palace, but brought herself! Damn it, why didn't she get sick for a while?!
"Third sister, I am so lucky. I was able to enter the palace with my grandmother and was rewarded by the empress. My sister really can't ask for it!" Nangong Lin glanced at Nangongyan, the long-term concubine who had always been cowardly and timid. She deliberately said, "Second Sister, don't you think so?" Although she spoke lightly, with a hint of a smile on her face, anyone with a discerning eye could clearly hear the jealousy in her words.
Nangong Yan glanced at the crowd timidly, shrank back, but said nothing.
But Mrs. Huang still refused to give up, and said with a sneer: "Sister Yue is really a great blessing! I don't know when our sister Lin will have such a blessing!" The words were obviously aimed at Su. I am very dissatisfied with the behavior of favoring the descendants!
