Work overtime

Chapter 130

You fool me, my job.

"Because this diamond is said to be formed by the spiritual energy contained in the stars falling from the sky and buried in the ground. It is very rare. Only the royal family can wear it in the Western Regions. Moreover, diamonds are the hardest things in the world. They can cut glass, so they symbolize eternal loyalty. An unchanging heart."

Jiang Yuebai blushed suddenly, "It's like a concubine's affection for His Majesty."

The truth is, when she was visiting Pingjiang Road, she accidentally saw this string of diamond necklaces in the jade shop opened by Hushang. It was so exquisite and beautiful that she couldn't put it down.

In her previous life, she was not able to own diamonds, but now she can afford such a large one. She was suddenly hit in the heart, and the feeling of making up for the shortcomings was so strong.

Seeing that his daughter liked it so much, her father bought the necklace without hesitation.

The Queen Mother believed Jiang Yuebai's words without hesitation.This gem has never been seen before. It is crystal clear and dazzling. Even if you look closely, you can't see any flaws. It really looks like the bright stars in the sky.

The sixth child told her how rare and expensive this diamond was, and Jiang Yuebai spoke so calmly and confidently.

No matter how you listen, it sounds very real.

It seems that Jiang Jingxian really has first-class earning ability, he values ​​his daughter very much, and he is generous.

The Empress Dowager's plan to win over Jiang Jingxian to make money for the royal family became more determined.

With an alternative plan, the Empress Dowager made up her mind, raised the corners of her mouth, and became calm, asking Jiang Yuebai if she could find a way to find that gem, it was so big.

Logically speaking, no one in this palace dared to touch the queen mother's things.

It must have been accidentally dropped.

But the necessary procedures still have to be followed. To be a dog-legged military adviser in a decent manner, I gave the Queen Mother two ideas, all of which are full of sincerity.

The two options are:

First, a reward is offered. Anyone who can hand over that diamond will not be guilty of any crime. It will be judged that "it will not be ignorant to pick up the gold", and a high reward will be given.We must believe in the masses, rely on the masses, and mobilize the power of the masses.

Second, list the places where you have been wearing the hairpin in the past two days in detail and completely, divide the routes of these places into grids, conduct a drag-net search, find the No.1 diamond, and reward according to the rules.

After listening to the Queen Mother, she thought for a moment and thought that Jiang Yuebai's idea was very reliable.

I originally planned to issue a notice immediately, but considering that the Tatar envoys were also attending a banquet in the palace at night, and looking for lost items at this time would be easy to cause trouble, so we changed the notice to a group at [-]:[-] the next morning.

In a happy mood, the Empress Dowager pulled Jiang Yuebai to ask about his condition, and after a while of warm greetings, she was so happy that she called Aunt Zhao to bring a pair of pink Xiuyu cherry blossom hairpins.

"This pair of hairpins was gifted by the first emperor when Aijia was pregnant with the emperor. You see, the carving is so delicate, the petals and the dewdrops on the petals are so lifelike." Melancholy.

"Thank you Empress Dowager for your love, I really don't need to reward my concubines anymore. This pair of hairpins are so beautiful and precious, my concubines can't take them."

"This pink is fresh and tender, which is suitable for your age. Aijia is not suitable to wear it. Today Aijia rewards you, and I hope you will give birth to a royal son for the royal family as soon as possible." The Queen Mother said with a smile.

"Empress Dowager, I really don't need it. It's too late for the concubine to be happy to share the worries of the Empress Dowager!" Jiang Yuebai pouted, looked at the Empress Dowager with big eyes, and still refused.

After all, many rewards have already been given in the afternoon. If the Jiang family should still give rewards at this time, it will appear greedy and blind.Jiang Yuebai refused in this way, but felt that Jiang Yuebai knew how to advance and retreat, knew how to measure, and was not proud of being favored.

"Come on, come closer, Aijia will put it on for you." The queen mother took a hairpin, inserted one on both sides of Jiang Yuebai's bun, looked to the left and looked again, how she looked, how satisfied she was.

Cherry blossom powder especially sets off one's skin tone and temperament. With Shangjiang Yuebai's drooping eyes, it is like the first cherry blossom shyly blooming in the long spring. It is too pink and lovely.

"Thank you Queen Mother for the reward." Jiang Yuebai said softly.

The queen mother couldn't help but gently lifted Jiang Yuebai's chin with her index finger, and looked at it carefully, it was really beautiful.

"Look up and see."

Jiang Yuebai slowly raised her eyes and looked at the queen mother.At the moment of raising his eyes, the waves flowed, charming and moving.Even the Queen Mother was shocked.

"What a beauty! Aunt Zhao, take a look, isn't this hairpin just right?"

Aunt Zhao nodded with a smile, but did not speak.After wearing this hairpin, it is [-] to [-]% similar to the queen mother back then, even more beautiful than the queen mother wore back then, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off.

It was only when Jiang Yuebai returned to the side hall and turned around, leaving only Aunt Zhao behind, that the Empress Dowager relaxed the stiffness on her face.

"Aunt Zhao, what do you think of the Jiang family?" The Queen Mother asked while removing the earrings.

"It looks very clever, and is good at flattering people." Aunt Zhao said with a smile, relaxing her shoulders for the Queen Mother.

"That's not the usual way to flatter," the Queen Mother said with a smile, looking carefully at the copper mirror, "That Jiang family looks pretty good in that set of cherry blossom hairpins."

There is a bit of fatigue and loss in the words.

"It's not as dazzling as the empress was wearing in the past," Aunt Zhao helped arrange her hair, "Is the empress thinking about the first emperor again?"

"Yes." The queen mother sighed, a little perfunctory.Others don't understand what she's thinking, but there's no need to say it.

Time makes people old, the late emperor has been gone for two years.

"What position did the emperor confer on the envoy's younger sister? Which palace does she live in?"

"Wanyi is sealed. I live in Shufang Palace in the northwest corner," Aunt Zhao paused, and added after thinking, "It's next door to Taorui Palace."

The queen mother looked left and right in the mirror, and guessed what the emperor was thinking. Leaning on the dressing table adorned with phoenix gold leaf, she sighed wearily, "Bring the jade face ointment prepared by the imperial hospital. The two spots at the corners of the eyes It can’t get rid of it all the time, it looks old-fashioned, and it’s really annoying.”

"The Tai Hospital said that this ointment will be gone if you keep using it for a year. According to my servant, this spot has faded a lot compared to the first month. It should work."

Aunt Zhao thoughtfully unscrewed the lid of the Yurong ointment, put it by the Empress Dowager's hand, and carefully hammered her shoulders for the Empress Dowager.

It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it's important to make the queen mother happy now, it won't work until the end of the year, and it's better to hold the queen mother accountable at that time.

The Empress Dowager was smearing the jade face ointment in front of the bronze mirror. Thinking of Jiang Changzai's cheeks under the candlelight, she sighed a little: "Do you think Jiang Changzai's skin is a little different. She didn't wear makeup tonight, and she came here with a plain face, but it was bright Very good. The face is white, tender and smooth, and it seems to be glowing."

Aunt Zhao has seen a lot, and there are many beauties in the harem who are naturally beautiful and beautiful, especially when they have just entered the palace and have no children, they have the freshness and tenderness unique to young girls.

Answering women's questions about what makes you look and age is a proposition.

The same is true for Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao thought about it, and comforted the Empress Dowager carefully, and said, "It looks good, your skin seems to be better than that of ordinary people. It can't be compared with when you first entered the palace, Empress Dowager. The previous emperor praised you for your youthful appearance and good skin. "

Thinking of her skin when she was young and her skin now, the queen mother was very melancholy, and said sullenly:
"Tomorrow, you can ask the Jiang family if they have any secret whitening recipes. I heard that there are many century-old brands and folk masters in Suzhou and Hangzhou, who will make some special ointments for dignitaries to use for beauty and beauty. .Maybe it's true."

"Isn't it possible to call the young master's parents into the palace tomorrow? You will know if you meet them. Presumably the young master's parents dare not hide the empress dowager. Being able to be used by the empress dowager is a blessing they have cultivated for hundreds of thousands of lives. .”
