Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 35
The more the eldest princess spoke, the lower her voice became, and it was almost inaudible at the back, but this was enough for everyone to figure out the real reason why the eldest princess fell into the water.

Concubine Jing said in disbelief: "Yan'er, you mean you sneaked to the lake by yourself and wanted to pick lotus flowers in the lake, so you accidentally fell into the lake?"

The eldest princess looked at Concubine Jing's frosty face, carefully tugged at her sleeves, and said in a low voice: "Concubine Mother, Yan'er knows she's wrong."

Concubine Jing wanted to get angry, but seeing the timid eyes of the eldest princess, she couldn't bear it, so she had to transfer her anger to the maid who served the eldest princess: "What are you doing for food? Master is still young and ignorant, so you don't know what to do?" Do you know to stop it?"

"If you don't know, it's fine to stop it. You didn't know how to take care of your master when you came to the lake with your master. When your master fell into the water, you still only yelled at the lake. What's the use of having a servant like you?"

The maid next to the Eldest Princess was already scared out of her wits. Hearing Concubine Jing's scolding, she just kept admitting her mistake and begging for mercy.

The queen saw that the matter was clear, and said: "Concubine Jing, since the matter has been clarified, you should take the eldest princess back to the palace to clean up. She has been frightened today, and you, the mother concubine, should comfort her well." Touch her."

Concubine Jing glanced at the eldest princess, suppressed her anger, and said to Luo Chengjing and the queen: "The concubine will take Yan'er and leave first."

"En." The queen responded, and after Concubine Jing left with the eldest princess, she glanced at Lu Wanning who was still kneeling on the ground, and said, "Beauty Lu, you should go back and change quickly."

Lu Wanning kowtowed to Luo Chengjing and the queen, and said, "The concubine will leave."

Lu Wanning stood up and was about to leave when Luo Chengjing looked at her in a panic, and suddenly said: "As far as I know, Concubine Jing seems to have made you sad more than once, why did you not hesitate to rescue the eldest princess when she fell into the water?" ?”

Lu Wanning thought that she didn't hesitate at all, she actually hesitated for a while before deciding to save her.

But this can't be the case.

Lu Wanning turned her head and said respectfully: "Although the concubine and the concubine Jing have some quarrels, there is no deep hatred."

"Besides, even if there is any deep hatred between the concubine and the concubine Jing, it is also the grievance between the concubine and the concubine Jing. If it is the concubine Jing who fell into the water today, the concubine may consider whether to save her, but the eldest princess is not It's a child, since she never hurt me, what does all this have to do with her? Why should the concubine take her anger on her?"

Luo Chengjing took a deep look at Lu Wanning, sneered, and said, "You are honest."

Lu Wanning lowered her head and lowered her eyes, "I dare not lie to the emperor."

Luo Chengjing waved: "Okay, let's go back."

Lu Wanning saluted Luo Chengjing and the queen again, and then left with Qingzhi and Qingdai.

In the Linglong Pavilion, Zhou Man and the others were surprised when they saw Lu Wanning come back so drenched. Zhou Man came up to greet Qing Dai and asked in a low voice, "Master, what happened?"

Qing Dai shook her head and said: "It's okay, the master is just here to save people, so don't ask any more questions, hurry up and get some water, let the master take a shower and change clothes first."

"Hey, I'll go right away." Zhou Man responded and immediately made arrangements.

Under the service of Qingzhi and Qingdai, Lu Wanning took a comfortable bath, changed into dry clothes, and sat on the soft couch while Qingzhi helped her brush her hair, while listening to her chanting.

"Fortunately, the weather is hot now, otherwise the master will have to catch a cold after all this trouble. Next time, master, don't be so impulsive. You don't care about yourself just to save others."

Qing Dai nodded in agreement, "That's right, the key is that the master obviously saved the eldest princess. The concubine Jing didn't appreciate it and even doubted the master. If I knew it earlier, the master should not have cared about this matter."

Lu Wanning smiled and said: "It's her fault that Concubine Jing doesn't appreciate it. I'm fine if I have a clear conscience. If I don't save the eldest princess today, I will have a bad conscience if something happens to the eldest princess."

And she saved the eldest princess today, no matter if Concubine Jing accepts it or not, Concubine Jing will have to think about it before trying to embarrass herself in the future.

If she continues to find fault with herself for no reason like before, then her reputation will be forgotten.

It is worthwhile to save the eldest princess today, if it can be changed, Concubine Jing will no longer be weird to her.

What's more, there may be more than this benefit, it would be even better if the emperor could no longer blame Concubine Lu Gui because of her last words.

In the afternoon, when Lu Wanning woke up from a nap, Qingzhi came to tell her that the concubine Jing sent someone to send a thank you gift.

Lu Wanning met the princess next to Concubine Jing, asked a few words about the situation of the princess, thanked Concubine Jing, and then sent her out.

Looking at the thank you gift from Concubine Jing, Qing Dai said with satisfaction: "It's not thin, the fabric alone is worth a lot of money."

Qingzhi sent people in, and when she heard Qingdai's words, she gave Qingdai an angry look, and said, "You are also from the Houfu, and you are not the kind who have never seen the world, why are you sneaking into Qian's eyes?" What does it look like? Opening your mouth is money, and you don’t want to embarrass the master?"

Qing Dai stuck out her tongue and said: "Isn't money used everywhere in the palace, so now I think of money when I see everything."

When Lu Wanning heard this, she smiled and said, "Although money is needed everywhere in the palace, we definitely have enough money. Qing Dai, you don't have to worry about running out of money that day."

When Lu Wanning entered the palace, Dow stuffed her with several large banknotes, which were originally saved by Dow to buy her a dowry.

Although the daughter of the Hou's mansion will give a dowry when she gets married, the dowry prepared by the public is not too generous. Dow owns a dowry village and a shop in his own hands, and he also has a lot of income every year. Dow has all the money. I saved it up, and planned to use the money to buy some dowry things for Lu Wanning when Lu Wanning got married, so that Lu Wanning could marry in a splendid manner.

Who would have thought that Lu Wanning would enter the palace in the end and would not have to buy a dowry, Tao simply handed over all the money to Lu Wanning and let Lu Wanning bring it into the palace.

The money is not too much, it is only more than 2000 taels, but the salary of the beauty in the palace is only 200 taels a year, this money is equivalent to her salary of ten years, and it will not be a problem to use it for three to five years.

And three to five years later, she will definitely not be in the current situation. As long as she has a pet, she will not be short of money.

After asking Qingdai and Qingzhi to put the thank you gift from Concubine Jing into the warehouse, Lu Wanning lightly shook the round fan in her hand and became dazed.

I wonder where the emperor will go tonight?
