The Salted Fish Empress Dotes on the Harem

Chapter 9
Originally, he wanted to show off to her, but now he lost his face, took a few sips of tea in embarrassment, chatted a few words, and left in a hurry.

After Xu Cairen left, Jin Miao took out the jewelry she brought, and laughed openly, "Xu Cairen is really interesting! She is shabby, and the gifts she gave are also shabby. How could she have the nerve to give these things? Give it to our master? Master, this slave will throw it away for you!"

"No!" Zhao Nuoqing stopped, "Regardless of the value of the gift or not, it's Xu Cairen's wish after all. We don't have many things in the warehouse, so we can't take up much space, so let's put them away!"

Jin Miao didn't dare to disobey his master's words, so he let out a muffled "Oh", turned around and walked outside the house.

Jin He walked out, and patiently explained: "If you lose it, when Xu Cairen asks the master later, how should the master respond? You, you, don't just think about your own happiness and anger, the master who turned around will follow you Tired!"

Jin Miao hadn't thought of this level, and after hearing Jin He's words, she felt that it was very reasonable, and she couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

It's so strange that the master likes to talk to Jin He the most, Jin He can always think of a place with the master!

However, today's Jinhe seems to be a little different from his usual days, and he even took the initiative to tell her these things. In the past, Jinhe always looked at her coldly, and basically had no good looks. To be honest, she was really afraid of her!

After hearing Jin He's words, Jin Miao obediently put the box away, and when he came to the warehouse, he just threw it away, his eyes full of disgust.

Jin Miao came out of the warehouse with her mouth curled up, and walked to the front yard, where she saw a slightly familiar maid coming out of the side hall. Followed by the side to send the general out, the two smiled and said something, and the maid left.

She thought hard for a while, and suddenly realized, isn't this the palace maid Qingyan next to the empress?
What is she doing here?
Yesterday the Empress promised to reward the master, could it be that she came to fulfill the promise?

Thinking of this, Jin Miao was very excited. Seeing Jin He turn back, she hurried over and asked with a smile, "Sister Jin He, is Qing Yan here to send the empress to the master's reward? He Baobao?"

Jin He didn't know when his smile stopped, and said lightly: "There is no reward, but the Empress Dowager is grateful for the hard work of the Empress Dowager, and will hold a banquet and sing opera in the evening the next day, and invite our empress to go together!"

"really?"

Participate in the banquet hosted by the Empress Dowager for the Empress Dowager, when the time comes, the Emperor will definitely come!

Hearing Jin He's words, Jin Miao was so excited that she didn't notice the smile that had long since dissipated on Jin He's face.

Jin He hummed, with a rather impatient tone, "Didn't you see Qingyan too? Can I still lie to you!"

Jin Miao's face was embarrassing. I don't know why Jin He suddenly changed his face, and he felt a little unhappy for a while. Wasn't it a great thing to be invited to the palace banquet by the empress?Why do you look like you're in trouble?
Hmph, what are you pulling?Isn't it just to gain face in front of the master?
Jin Miao thought indignantly.

After finishing speaking, the two had reached the door, Jin He raised the bead curtain and walked in, and saw his master leaning on the soft couch, reading leisurely books calmly, not as sad as he thought.

I thought that the master was used to staying behind closed doors on weekdays, but now he has to meet many empresses and even the queen mother when he goes out, so he must be worried.

Now it seems that I am worrying too much?

"Your Majesty..." Jin He called softly.

Zhao Nuoqing raised his head slowly, and ordered: "Go and prepare the new set of clothes sent by the Shangfu Bureau a few days ago. The upper part of the dress is refreshing and elegant, and it doesn't look ostentatious or shabby. After participating This day's theater banquet couldn't be more suitable!"

Jin He bowed his knees and saluted, then turned around and went to the cabinet to find the dress the master mentioned.

As soon as Zhao Nuoqing looked up, he saw Jin Miao's face was gloomy. If Jin Miao heard that she was going to attend the theater banquet, he would be the happiest, after all, the emperor would also go!
Why does he look so angry now?
"Jin Miao, what's wrong with you? But who bullied you?" Zhao Nuoqing asked.

Jin Miao took a step forward and shook her head, "Your servant is not bullied!"

After all, Jin Miao couldn't help it, and asked again: "Master, don't you...don't want to go to the banquet invited by the Empress? Is it because the servant is not very happy to see Jinhe? It must be because you are unhappy, Master. Bar?"

Jin Miao and Jin He are logically equal, but Jin He is more capable and strong in his actions, and Jin Miao is softer but gives way to Jin He everywhere. Now it seems that Jin He is the only one.

She knows that Jin He is more honorable in front of her master than herself, because Jin He understands his master's heart best, so she also knows that Jin He's impatience just now was not aimed at her, but worried about her master, although she still feels in her heart. Not happy, but after all, Jin He is also good for the master, after thinking about it, she doesn't blame Jin He anymore.

Zhao Nuoqing raised his head and glanced at Jin He who was rummaging through the closet for clothes, only to find that Jin He's expression was heavier than hers, he felt warm in his heart, and laughed, "I'm a little unhappy, but your master I can see it, since I am in the palace, this kind of banquet can be hidden for a while, and I can't hide from it for a lifetime. I don't want to participate in the palace banquet because I think it's troublesome, it's not extreme resistance, let's treat it normally!"

After that, he looked at Jinhe again, called her over, took her hand and said with a smile: "I know you love me and worry about me, but you are only eighteen or nineteen years old, don't always be serious." This banquet just happened to take you and Jin Miao to see the world, and it's really boring to always nest with me in this acre of land!"

Listening to Zhao Nuoqing's words, a faint smile hung on the corner of Jin He's mouth, and Jin Miao, who was beside him, also swept away the haze just now, very excited.

It was the first time for her to watch an opera in the palace. When she was young, she only saw it at a temple fair, but there were so many people at that time, and she had to take care of her younger brother so that she would not be swept away by the crowd, so she basically couldn't watch a complete opera.

Of course, going to the theater is not important, the most important thing is that the emperor will come too!
At that time, the master may be able to win the emperor's favor, after all, their master is extremely beautiful, and they will definitely be the most beautiful at that time!

Jin Miao was thinking like this, but she didn't know how much she regretted letting her master go to this banquet in the future!

……

Another two days passed in the blink of an eye, Zhao Nuo packed everything up early in the morning, and took Jin Miao and Jin He to the Palace of Compassion and Ning where the Empress Dowager lived.

Because they lived in a remote place, they set off from the palace before evening, and when they reached the Palace of Compassion, the sky gradually darkened, and many concubines had already arrived at the stage, standing in groups. A joke.

Jin Miao on the side said in surprise: "I thought we came early enough, but I never thought that there are even earlier ones!"

Zhao Nuoqing smiled, looking around, the early ones were only some concubines who were of similar status to hers or lower, their status was originally low, if they were late, wouldn't it be true that they sincerely didn't want to make things easier for themselves ?
