There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 797 Queen: What kind of treasure did Su Aiqing create to make me healthy?
After waiting for the queen to remove her makeup, Nangong Wan'er left the Huiyou Hall.

Then he hurriedly arrived at the "Shangyi Bureau".

She held many positions in the harem, and the clothing bureau was also under her jurisdiction.

The Shangyi Bureau specializes in embroidering clothes for the Queen, such as dragon robes and various formal dresses.

She came here in a hurry because an embroiderer accidentally soiled a dress.

That dress was worn by the Queen during the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the full moon, when she met with the civil and military officials of the court and had fun with the people.

Not to be sloppy.

"Can it be re-sewed?" Nangong Wan'er glanced at the embroidery lady of the Shangyi Bureau who was kneeling on the ground, her face looking very ugly.

"Reporting to the Official Chronicle, the fabric used for that dress was obtained as tribute from the Western Regions. The quantity is not enough to sew another one. Moreover, there is not enough time." An embroiderer whispered.

"Can the stain be washed away?"

Nangong Wan'er asked again calmly.

Although she almost controls the entire harem, she is very kind and always protects her subordinates.

For example, if someone else had changed this matter, I'm afraid that it would have been stabbed in the Queen's ears long ago, and his responsibility would be completely wiped out.

Of course, all the embroiderers in the Shangyi Bureau will probably die.

This is dozens of lives!

Although Nangong Wan'er was angry, she actually soiled the Queen's dress, and she was looking for death... But she did not abandon her subordinates, but tried every means to exonerate them.

"Reporting to the official record of the lawsuit, the slaves and others tried starching, but we used all the soap locust, spices, etc., but the stain... could not be removed!"

There was deep fear in Xiu Niang's voice.

When Nangong Wan'er heard this, she couldn't help but sigh and slowly closed her eyes, looking helpless.

Seeing this, the embroiderers who were kneeling on the ground kowtowed, begging Nangong Wan'er to find a way to save their lives.

Nangong Wan'er slowly opened her eyes and said, "Don't worry for now, I will figure out a solution for this matter..."

Even so, she had no idea at all and could only take one step at a time.

At this time, she suddenly remembered the Queen's sigh just now. It would be great if there was really something in the world that could easily remove any stains!
……

Princess Lanling's Mansion.

After half a day’s hard work, the world’s first soap is finally freshly baked!

"This is...soap!" Princess Lanling gently held it in her hand, looking at it carefully with a serious look on her face, and finally she came close to Qiong's nose and took a deep sniff. It was very fragrant.

"Princess, you can try it out yourself." Su Xian clapped his hands, smiling with satisfaction when he was done.

"Alright!"

Lan Ling ordered the fragrant bathing soup to be prepared immediately, and walked to the bathroom holding the soap in his hands.

About half an hour later, Lan Ling walked out of the bathroom happily and praised:

"Sure enough, it's a wonder! It's very easy to use. The effect is incomparable to that of soap locust and fragrant soap. Now I feel refreshed and transparent all over my body!"

After she finished speaking, she suddenly froze.

Because Qiu Dianjun, Dongdianjun and other palace maids were still there, but Su Xian was missing.

The smile at the corner of Lanling's mouth slowly solidified. She was so happy in her heart, but she couldn't find anyone to share it with. This feeling was really bad!
Qiu Dianjun saw the change in Lanling's expression and explained:

"Reporting to the princess, the captain said it was getting late and he was afraid that the ladies at home would be worried, so..."

"So what?" Lan Ling's face immediately fell. Su Xian's move made her secretly jealous.

"So, the lieutenant... took away several pieces of soap and left happily. He also said... and said..." Qiu Dianjun hesitated.

"What else?"

"Reporting to the princess, the captain also said that the ladies will be very happy when they see the soap..."

"Does he think it takes too long for me to take a bath?" Lan Ling looked unhappy, but after thinking about it, she had secretly made a decision in her heart:
Find an opportunity and ask Su Xian to wait for her to take a bath outside the bathroom door. She can take a bath for as long as she wants, waiting for Su Xian to die!

After having this idea in his mind, Lan Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and all the jealousy disappeared completely.

She is someone who wants to do big things and doesn't stick to trivial matters. Otherwise, she would have stopped Su Xian from marrying Liu Huixiang and Tang Shuwan...

At this time, Lan Ling's eyes fell on the batch of soap, with a smile on his face, he casually ordered:

"Immediately prepare a beautiful box to contain this batch of soaps. I will enter the palace immediately and present these treasures to Your Majesty before the palace gate closes!"

"Yes!"

After a while, Lan Ling headed straight to the palace city with a dozen exquisite wooden boxes.

Collecting treasures and presenting them to the Queen is a way for her to maintain her favor, and the Queen also likes this.

……

at the same time.

Harem, Huiyou Hall.

It was still early, but the Queen was very tired today, so she planned to rest early.

Nangong Wan'er and other female officials used the soaked handkerchief to wipe the Queen's hands and face for the last time, trying to remove as much greasiness as possible from the heavy makeup.

After wiping, the queen twirled her fingers, but she felt that they were not clean and were still covered with a layer of oil. This made her feel a little unhappy, and her eyebrows gradually furrowed.

But there is no way, she is the queen of the dynasty, and the washing products she uses are the best in the world...

"That's it, that's it. I'm tired too. Let's rest early!" The queen waved her hand and walked towards the dragon bed surrounded by female officials.

At this time, a court lady reported outside the bedroom: "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, Princess Lanling is asking to see you."

"Oh?" The Queen was just about to sit on the dragon bed. She paused when she heard this and said with a suspicious look on her face: "It's so late. Let's talk about anything tomorrow."

"Observe the order!" The maid outside the door bowed and retreated.

After a while, the queen had already laid down and covered her with a quilt. Her eyes were gently closed, and waves of tiredness slowly came over her.

Nangong Wan'er and other female officials were just about to leave when another maid came outside the door and said:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, said that she got a treasure today, which is very magical, so she went to the palace to present it to Your Majesty. The Princess also said that if Your Majesty sees it, she will definitely like it!"

After hearing this, the Queen's eyes instantly opened and bursts of light burst out.

baby?

And it's amazing?

Will she like it when she sees it?

It has to be said that the Queen's interest was piqued by success. Why did she favor Lan Ling?It's because Lan Ling brings surprises to her from time to time!
This surprise instantly made the queen forget her physical fatigue and the discomfort of never being able to wash her head and face clean.

She turned over and sat up and ordered: "In this case, we can't let my young mother's filial piety be dampened, Xuan!"

"According to the order."

"..."

After a while, Princess Lanling came to the Queen's bedroom.

After performing the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, the queen smiled, sat on the dragon bed and waved her hand, motioning for Lan Ling to come and sit down.

As expected, Lan Ling walked over and sat next to the Queen.

Although they are not real biological mother and daughter, firstly, Lan Ling does not know about it, and secondly, the Queen also tries her best to play the role of mother, so they are not real mother and daughter, but they are better than mother and daughter.

The Queen held Lan Ling's hand with a smile on her face and chatted for a long time. Lan Ling deliberately flattered her and made the Queen nod her head repeatedly. It seemed as if there was endless things to say between the two of them.

"Your Majesty seems to have something on your mind?" Lan Ling suddenly noticed that the Queen's expression was sometimes unnatural, as if she was enduring something disgusting.

"It's nothing... just don't talk about these troublesome things!" The Queen shook her head.

In order to please the Queen, Lan Ling must solve the Queen's problems.

When the Queen saw this, she could only shake her head and tell the truth——

Her hands and face couldn't be cleaned no matter how hard she washed them. This feeling was inexplicably annoying.

Lan Ling was startled when he heard this, then smiled and said:

"So your Majesty is worried about this? In fact, to be honest with you, your Majesty came to the palace today and brought a treasure. This treasure can relieve your Majesty's worries!"

"Young lady, what did you say?"

The queen looked surprised and suspected that she was so tired today that she had auditory hallucinations.

Nangong Wan'er, who was standing by, also interjected:
"Your Highness doesn't know something. Your Majesty wore heavy makeup today. After removing the makeup, he used soap and soap, but he couldn't wash it off..."

Lan Ling stood up and waved to the people waiting outside the palace. Soon, several palace ladies delivered more than a dozen exquisite wooden boxes and displayed them in front of everyone.

Lan Ling took out an exquisite wooden box and opened the lid. Suddenly, the scent of flowers spread, refreshing.

She said as if offering a treasure:

"Your Majesty, the treasure presented by me is this thing. This thing is called 'soap'. It is far more effective than ordinary soap. It can clean any stains and can also be used for bathing and washing hands. I have tried it myself and the effect is excellent!"

"Is that true? This...soap can really wash away any stains?!" The queen stood up, took a soap, and looked at it carefully, with a look of surprise and joy on her face.

When Nangong Wan'er saw this, her face moved slightly. She also took a piece of soap and looked at it carefully, and then asked casually: "Your Highness, can this soap be used to... starch and wash clothes?"

Lan Ling smiled and said:

"Actually, this soap has a 'sister' called soap. Soap is specially used for washing clothes, but you can also use soap!"

"Really?" Nangong Wan'er's eyes lit up, and the hand holding the soap was trembling slightly. You know, if the stained dress could be washed clean, dozens of lives could be saved!
"..."

However, at this moment, another female official poured cold water on her:
"The soap locust and soap used by Your Majesty are the best in the world. Can the soap presented by Her Royal Highness really be better than the soap?"

When the empress and Nangong Wan'er heard the words, their excitement gradually cooled down, and the smiles on their faces also gradually disappeared. This is also true. Is this soap really so miraculous?

Isn't that an exaggeration?

Lan Ling smiled and said:

"How is the effect? ​​Your Majesty can try it yourself. Don't you think your hands and face are not clean? You can try washing them with soap."

The Queen and Nangong Wan'er nodded slowly at the same time, saying that it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.

However, before the Queen could give her orders, Lan Ling smiled again:

"Your Majesty, does your Majesty know who made this soap?"

"I don't know. Could it be from the Western Region or overseas?"

"No, this thing was actually made by the Taiwei!"

"Su Aiqing!"

The Queen was shocked. After receiving the affirmative answer, her spirit was shaken. Without any hesitation on her face, she ordered to prepare copper basins, hot water, towels, etc. immediately...

Needless to say, the effect of the trial was that the Queen felt refreshed as never before. She finally held the soap in her hands and praised:
"As expected of him, Su Aiqing, Su Aiqing, if you had come up with this soap earlier... But it's not too late now!"

"..."

The queen was so excited that she took the soap and took a bath again.

Upon seeing this, Lan Ling was also preparing to leave the palace and return home. Tomorrow at the latest, the queen's reward would be issued. Of course, she could only get a reward for "merit in offering treasures".

The most important reward is naturally Su Xian's.

"Your Highness the Princess!" After Lan Ling left the Queen's bedroom, he was stopped after walking for a while. When he turned around, he saw that it was Nangong Wan'er.

"Nangong Secretary." Lan Ling nodded with a smile and asked, "I wonder if Secretary Ji has any advice?"

Nangong Wan'er glanced at the maid next to Lan Ling and said, "I haven't seen the princess for a long time. I wonder if I can have a chat with the princess alone."

"You all leave."

Lan Ling waved away the palace maid beside him.

They were the only two people in the long corridor.

Nangong Wan'er lives in the palace all year round, so she naturally dresses in a proper palace style.

In terms of her exquisite face and overall temperament, she is no worse than Princess Lanling.

However, Princess Lanling's status is too noble, her figure is more plump and dazzling, so Lanling is more in line with the aesthetics of the Daliang court.

Relatively speaking, Nangong Wan'er was much lighter.

But because of this, she has a kind of weak beauty, and her temperament is also noble, like a weak willow supporting the wind, which can even arouse the desire to protect in a man's heart...

Under the corridor with high hanging lanterns, the two women stood opposite each other, like a pair of delicate flowers hooved together, each with its own merits and charm.

One is as bright and delicate as a peony.

One is as delicate and elegant as a daisy.

Beautiful!

"Your Highness, I wonder if your Highness still has any leftover soap for washing clothes. I am willing to spend a lot of money to buy one!" Nangong Wan'er said.

"Oh, what a coincidence! I no longer have soap in stock." Lan Ling spread his hands.

Nangong Wan'er's complexion changed slightly.

Lan Ling had no stock in hand, and she didn't dare to touch the Queen's soap. What should she do now?The lives of dozens of embroiderers in the Shangyi Bureau are all in her hands.

Lan Ling didn't know what was going on in her mind, and joked with a smile: "I don't have any inventory in hand, but you can go to the Taiwei. This soap and soap are all made by him!"

Nangong Wan'er's eyes lit up suddenly, this is a way.

Lan Ling smiled again and said: "However, it is very difficult to tinker with this kind of soap and soap. You have to spend a lot of money to get it from the Taiwei."

"Your Highness, please give me some advice. No matter what the price, I can accept it!" Nangong Wan'er said immediately.

"Really?" Lan Ling's lips slowly raised.

"As expected! I dare to ask the princess, what does the captain need in exchange? I can pay a lot of money to buy it."

"He doesn't need Nangong Siji to spend a lot of money to buy him, he only needs you..." Lan Ling suddenly came closer and laughed softly: "I need you... to pledge yourself!"

"Your Highness!" Nangong Wan'er suddenly became nervous, and Qingcheng's face turned red. Of course, this was both because of being teased by Lan Ling and because of the embarrassment of having Lan Ling talk about the central issue.

"Hahaha..." Lan Lingyu covered her mouth with her hands, laughing so hard that her branches were trembling with joy.

"..."

After laughing, Lan Ling quickly apologized. After all, Nangong Wan'er is the Queen's confidant and is known as the "internal minister". How could Lan Ling be easily offended?

Then, she took out a sachet from her waist and opened it in front of Nangong Wan'er. Nangong Wan'er looked over and saw that there was a complete soap inside the sachet.

Lan Ling actually put the soap in the sachet!

He also pinned the sachet to his waist!
Not to mention Nangong Wan'er's weird face, if Su Xian saw this, he would be speechless for several days...

Lan Ling gave the soap and sachet to Nangong Wan'er and said, "The secretary will take it and use it first. Tomorrow the palace will send another batch of soap and soap to the palace."

"Thank you princess, thank you... Lieutenant!"

After Nangong Wan'er got the soap, she immediately said goodbye to the princess and went straight to the clothing department. She took it upon herself to wash the dress with soap.

The result is obvious, the stubborn stains were easily removed, making them clean...

After a while, the night was deep.

Nangong Wan'er had gone to bed, but she couldn't sleep. She reached under the pillow with her slender hands and took out something, which turned out to be the soap.

She held it tightly in her hand and murmured to herself:
"Master Su is always so outstanding, I don't know... eh!"

After sighing, she stuffed the soap under her pillow, closed her eyes and gradually fell asleep.
