Empress, she is rising step by step

Chapter 25 What’s mine belongs to my sister

"Ah, my sister's hands are so skillful. If I didn't know better, I would have thought it was a real lotus. I can almost smell the fragrance."

Cao Wenxi saw that Zhu Ci did not show any disgust at all. Instead, he was filled with joy and became happy as well.

"I have nothing to do in my free time, so I just cook, eat and embroider some things to pass the time. Just like it."

Zhuying brought hot tea, followed by a thin eunuch.

With a smile on her face, she said: "Master, the prince from the Ministry of Internal Affairs is here."

"My slave, please pay your respects to Princess Zhu." Wang Buren saluted Zhu Ci, with a smile full of wrinkles on his slender face.

Although he looks young, he looks very mature.

Wang Buren noticed that Cao Wenxi next to Zhu Ci looked like a master, but he looked very unfamiliar and had never seen him in the palace before.

"Hey, my wife is still here. Look at your sharp eyesight. I should be beaten. You are..."

Cao Wenxi nodded, "I am Cao Baolin from Weiyang Palace."

Wang Buren said "Oh", his smile faded a bit, and he just made a hasty bow to Cao Wenxi.

Cao Baolin from Weiyang Palace has been suffering from ailments since he entered the palace. Either he feels uncomfortable here or there is pain there. If he hadn't met him today, he would have forgotten that there was a Master Cao in the palace. It was such a pity to have such a beautiful face.

Cao Wenxi has long been accustomed to strange things. It felt uncomfortable at first, but I got used to it as time went by, so I didn't take it to heart.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has specially ordered your servant to bring you some pieces of satin and some jewelry. See if you like it."

As he spoke, Wang Buren clapped his hands, and a group of delicate-looking little eunuchs filed in, all holding something in their hands.

"Here is a box of East Sea pearls and a set of emerald tiaras, especially this piece of satin. This satin is called organza. Don't look at it as ordinary."

"Not only do the clothes not generate heat when worn on the body, but they also cool the touch, and they also have a scent. A total of five horses were presented as tribute. Apart from the empress and concubine, you are the only one who has it. "

Zhu Ci touched it with his hand, and it was indeed smooth and ice-cold to the touch. It felt very good.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."

Chong Zhuying winked, Zhuying took two golden peanuts and stuffed them into Wang Buren's hand.

"The weather is getting warmer, and my father-in-law is also working hard on his errands. I would like to give you some tea to soothe your throat."

The smile on Wang Buren's face became even bigger, and he put the golden peanut away calmly. This Zhu Yunu is worthy of being a noble concubine, and her actions are generous.

No wonder the old saying goes, "When one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven." This saying is indeed true at all.

Wang Buren said diligently: "It is my honor to be able to do things for you. I wish you no need to be so polite. This is what a slave should do. If you have any instructions from the queen in the future, just send someone to tell me. I am willing to follow the example of a dog and a horse." It’s hard work.”

Zhu Ci politely exchanged a few words with Wang Buren, and Wang Buren asked people to put down everything carefully and led the palace people away in a grand manner.

Zhu Ci took a piece of evergreen loose-flowered silk and placed it in front of Cao Wenxi.

"Sister Cao, I think the color of this material suits you very well. It will definitely look good when you use it to make clothes."

"This is too expensive, and it was specially given to you by the emperor. How can I have the nerve to steal someone's love? I have enough clothes." Cao Wenxi said he didn't want it, which was a lie. She didn't want to sleep with him at first, she just wanted to live out her life in peace.

She caught wind and cold just after entering the palace. She was very lucky at first, but then the cruel reality told her. What she thought and did was so stupid.

Only if you are favored will you not be bullied, such as Zhu Yunu. It turned out that she was just a palace maid who did rough work, and she became the master after taking advantage of the imperial concubine. The eunuchs who looked down on others nodded and laughed.

Although she was born as a concubine, she was still from the Zhengerba family. Now she is being given alms by a concubine who was born as a palace maid.

"Sister, just accept it. We are sisters, so what is yours and mine? What is mine belongs to my sister."

Zhu Ci could see the subtle changes in expression on Cao Wenxi's face. She knew she wanted beautiful silk that no woman could refuse.

She also knew that she actually despised her family background in her heart. Even though she was not favored, her family background was not very noble.

But she didn't mind, as long as she could get what she wanted from Cao Wenxi.

"If sister doesn't accept it, then she and I will be separated. If I have something on my mind in the future, I will be too afraid to tell my sister."

Cao Wenxi's hand subconsciously stroked the loose-flowered damask. It is covered with beautiful lines, as bright as a mirror, and feels extremely delicate to the touch.

"Since my sister has said so, I will accept it."

After sitting for a while, Cao Wenxi stood up and left. Zhuying asked confusedly after returning from sending Cao Wenxi off.

"Master, why are you so kind to Cao Baolin? You give away such precious materials as soon as you ask, and you and Cao Baolin only have a one-time relationship."

"Seeing how plainly she was dressed, I felt quite bad after seeing it. It's okay to leave her alone anyway, so I might as well give her to make clothes."

Zhu Ci took a bite of lotus cake. It tastes really good, crispy and refreshing, with a light lotus aroma.

"Don't think she is an unpopular Baolin now. Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? Baoqi will fall into the eyes of the emperor someday. It is better to be good friends than to be enemies with others. You have to remember One thing, don’t underestimate anyone around you.”

Zhuying stuck out her tongue and said, "I know this. I hope Cao Baolin will think of you well. If you don't have good intentions, it will be wrong in her eyes."

Zhu Cicai didn't care what Cao Wenxi thought. There were no permanent friends, only permanent interests, and the same was true for the harem. If Cao Wenxi hadn't wanted something from her, he wouldn't have come all the way to Qifeng Palace from Weiyang Palace.

"You personally give the two pieces of organza to the noble concubine and the empress."

Zhu Ci picked up a pearl from the gold-wrapped eight treasure box and played with it in her hand. The pearls are round, full of luster, and plump.

Although she didn't understand pearls, she could still tell that they were good things.

"I heard that Empress Shu's favorite is pearl jewelry. I don't have any use for it, so I will give it to Empress Shu some other time."

Zhuying blinked, thinking she heard wrongly, "Master, you want to give it to Concubine Shu? You don't know that the concubine and Concubine Shu have never dealt with each other. If you do this, I'm afraid that the concubine will annoy you if she finds out."

Zhu Ci held up her cheeks and smiled, "Just don't let her know."

Cao Wenxi walked back slowly. There are red flowers and willow shadows around Qiandao Lake, and the sound of birdsong and streams is all over my ears, but there are no people in sight.

The palace maid Yueran smiled and said: "This Princess Zhu seems to be quite kind and treats the master well. If nothing happens, the master can walk around with the Princess Zhu more, and maybe we can meet the emperor."
