Allure emperor medical concubine

Chapter 119 Gossip
Lu Xiaoning thought about the time for dinner and the time needed to return from the Princess's mansion, and then went home.

As soon as she entered the door, the concierge told her that the master asked her to go to the study as soon as she got home.

Lu Xiaoning thought about it, his father wanted to ask about the eldest princess.

It's all because of the lame excuses Huangfu Shaoye gave her, but fortunately, her father would not confront the eldest princess, he didn't have the guts.

Lu Xiaoning went straight to the study.

Lu Youren waited for Lu Xiaoning while reading the document, few of the words on the document caught his eye, his mind was full of congratulations and praise from his colleagues in the Ministry of Rites.

He has been serving as Minister of Rites for six years. At that time, the old Shangshu held him in high esteem, but the good times didn’t last long. After Mrs. Ji passed away, the old Shangshu’s father left, and the old Shangshu returned to his hometown, Ding You. In three years, it seemed that he was going to be a filial piety, and then the old mother went away again, so he had to follow Ding You. Even if he returned to Beijing, he would not be able to sit in the position of Minister of Rites again.

And the successor Master Zhou, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, looked down upon him in various ways, embarrassing him not once or twice, causing his colleagues to alienate him, and he stayed in this position for six years in embarrassment, what? Don't even think about fat and vacancies, good things are not his turn, and difficult things must be his share.

He also thought about asking Mrs. Lou to follow Mrs. Shangshu's path, but it didn't work out. Not only didn't it work, it made Zhou Shangshu even more disgusted.

Every time at this time, he would always think of Mrs. Ji, who manages the housework in an orderly manner, runs a prosperous business, and socializes and entertains outside with a certain degree of progress... It's just that he has a bit of a stubborn temper and doesn't please his mother.

Hey... If the Ji family hadn't been so narrow-minded and allowed the Lou family to come in, the two of them could live in harmony, and the Lu family would be in a different situation.

Fortunately, now that Xiao Ning is up to the challenge, he was elated for a while, and today even Zhou Shangshu offered to let him go home early to celebrate.

The nine-needle competition is not only a matter of concern for the royal family of Da Zhou, but also a pain in the hearts of every citizen of Da Zhou.And Xiao Ning came out like a strong dark horse, becoming the youngest Qizhen in history, which made everyone's eyes shine and hope.

Even though Huangfu Yunlan won the first place in the end, no one can hide Xiaoning's aura.

As early as the day when Xiao Ning confessed to him, he saw today's scene, but this day has really come, this kind of real experience is incomparable by imagination, just two words, happy!
Zhu Wang came in and reported: "Master, Missy is here."

"Come in." Lu Youren put down the paper and said.

Lu Xiaoning entered the study and saluted: "Xiaoning has seen his father."

Lu Youren said kindly, "Sit down."

Lu Xiaoning said: "Xiao Ning is more comfortable standing up and answering."

Lu Youren silently looked at this daughter, it seemed that he hadn't looked at her well since she was born, Xiao Ning was born prematurely, she was as thin as a cat when she was born, she was wrinkled and ugly, he disliked her, but Fanghua, who was born white and tender, with beautiful features, and a pair of eyes very much like him, he loves and loves him from the bottom of his heart.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, almost 16 years have passed, and the little milk baby who looked like a skinny cat at the beginning is now slim and tall, with that calm demeanor, the demeanor of the eldest lady, which completely compares with the soft youth.

Lu Youren put away the emotions in his heart, and asked in a harmonious voice: "Is the princess still in good health?"

Lu Xiaoning replied calmly: "The complexion is better than last time."

Lu Youren nodded: "What did the eldest princess tell you?"

"It's just gossip, and then praised me a few words." Lu Xiaoning said without shame.

Hearing this, Lu Youren's brows and eyes widened: "Eldest Princess, you should walk around more when you have time. Father, I remember the last time Jiang Nanny came and told you to go for a walk often."

"Well, I will go whenever I have free time, but it may not be free for a long time. Today, the Fangyuan envoy said that we should go to the medical office to report to the medical office on the day after the selection. In the afternoon, I will go to the palace to meet the emperor." Lu Xiaoning said.

Lu Youren straightened his body abruptly: "The emperor wants to summon you?"

I heard that in the past, the emperor would only summon the people who participated in the nine-needling technique after finalizing the list.

"Yeah, Eunuch Gao said it himself, Eunuch Gao doesn't know what's going on, the one who took the first place today is Huangfu Yunlan, but Eunuch Gao came to me as if he didn't know this person, boasting After saying a few words to me, Huangfu Yunlan's face turned dark when I saw him, maybe why he hates me." Lu Xiaoning said worriedly.

She had to make a foreshadowing first, Lu Fanghua had already hooked up with Prince Qin, so she had to use Huangfu Shaozhuo's hand to suppress her, just looking at the few encounters with Huangfu Shaozhuo, Huangfu Shaozhuo didn't give her a good face.Therefore, she'd better talk to her father about anything related to Prince Qin's mansion.

After hearing this, Lu Youren couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and walked around the room twice to sort out his thoughts.Eunuch Gao is an old man by the emperor's side. He has served the emperor since he was a child. No one in the palace should try to surpass Eunuch Gao. Eunuch Gao also understands the emperor's thoughts best.

Ordinarily, if Eunuch Gao wants to praise, he must first praise Huangfu Yunlan, but he only praised Xiao Ning. Is there another deep meaning here?

No matter what the emperor thinks, it is difficult to guess the mind of the superior, but one thing is certain, the emperor is also optimistic about Xiao Ning, he must have said something in private, otherwise Gao Gonggong would not go out of his way to praise Xiao Ning .

"Father I know, you don't need to worry. As for the nine-needle competition, in the end it depends on who is stronger. You told my father that you are [-]% sure of eight needles. Thinking about that Huangfu Yunlan may not be [-]% sure, there are still four or five months before the competition, if you put in more thought and effort, you may not lose to her." Lu Youren encouraged.

"Father said so, Xiao Ning remembered." Lu Xiaoning said obediently.

"By the way, besides the lady from the Chen family's Lin family and the Shen family's Du family, will there be anyone else coming?" Lu Youren asked.

Lu Xiaoning said: "Sister Chen and the others have agreed to come, so the others don't know."

There will definitely be people coming by then, and the Lu Mansion will be lively tomorrow.

"You are tired today, go to rest earlier, and you have to entertain guests tomorrow when distinguished guests come. Then don't forget to take them to see grandma, so that she will be happy too." Lu Youren reminded.

It's been a long time since the Lu family has entertained distinguished guests. Lou's communication is limited, and even the ladies and ladies with status will not come to the house as guests. Hey... no one is perfect, this is Lou's shortcoming, I can't say it.

Lu Xiaoning obediently agreed that even if her father didn't tell her, she would do the same. She didn't really want to please this grandmother, but because she stood by Lou's side and made things difficult for her mother, she couldn't treat this old man sincerely. She is a ruthless and ungrateful person, and she is only doing superficial work. The point is, the grandmother is facing her, and Lou is holding her breath. She is still very happy to do things that can make the mother and daughter unhappy.
