Queen Xiaozhuang's personal maid: Su Malagu

Chapter 31 Love (1)
(1)

When Su Mo'er was decocting medicine for Bumbutai herself, Jiu'er ran over.

"Sister Su Moer, someone is looking for you!"

"Someone is looking for me? Who is it?" Su Mo'er didn't look up, but bent down, and continued to stir slowly in the medicine jar with chopsticks.

"That person said his name is Lu Qingyi." Jiu'er approached her, looked around, and lowered his voice.In the harem, a certain distance needs to be kept between court ladies and men.A man came to Su Mo'er, no matter what the reason was, he needed to be on guard.Jiu'er, who had been taken care of by Su Mo'er in Yongfu Palace, naturally wanted not to be heard by others.

Su Mo'er's hands trembled, and her heart was beating wildly.

"Oh, did he say something?" She calmed down, then raised her head pretending to be calm, and asked lightly.

"He said he had something for Sister Su Mo'er. I think he has a small bundle in his hand."

"Oh, that's the one who gave me the painting book. This person is the painter of the Guangchu Division." Su Mo'er lowered her head and continued to stir while explaining, but she was already absent-minded.She really wanted to run over there, but reason told her that she couldn't.

Su Mo'er let out a sigh of relief, pretending to be careless, without raising her head, she said, "I can't leave now, just help me get it."

She hoped that Jiu'er would say that she was too busy to go, so she would have to go.But Jiu'er didn't, Jiu'er was happy to help Su Mo'er with things.She readily agreed and ran out.

Su Mo'er looked at Jiu'er's back in disappointment, but soon, she became nervous and restless because of what Lu Qingyi would bring her.She seemed to suddenly understand that Bumbutai's feelings for Dorgon should be the same as she had for Lu Qingyi!
Jiu'er only went for more than ten minutes, but Su Mo'er felt that it was very long.Although she was in front of the medicine jar, but the medicine overflowed, she was still in a daze.It wasn't until a palace maid came in to see and reminded her that she hurriedly took the medicine jar.

"Sister Su Mo'er, what's the matter with you?" The maid noticed her abnormality.

"Oh, it's nothing, I was thinking about making a mandarin jacket for Concubine Zhuang." Su Mo'er explained in a panic.

"Wow, my sister is going to make clothes again. My sister's hands are so ingenious." Several court ladies surrounded her and said enviously.

"It's nothing, it's nothing, well, I'm going to deliver the medicine to Concubine Zhuang." Su Mo'er said, picked up the medicine jar and walked outside.

As soon as she walked out the door, she saw Jiu'er jogging over, holding a bundle in his hand.

Su Mo'er stopped, and was so nervous that she almost couldn't hold the medicine jar in her hand.She wanted to rush over and snatch the bundle from Jiu'er's hand, but reason made her stand there still, unable to move.

"Sister Su Moer, sister Su Moer, here! That Master Lu gave it to you." Jiu'er stuffed the bundle into Su Moer's arms.

Su Mo'er's face turned red again, she didn't know whether she should accept the burden.Fortunately, Jiu'er took the tilted medicine pot in her hand that was about to flow out, and said, "Sister Su Mo'er, give me the medicine pot! I'll bring it to Concubine Zhuang."

"Then...then, hold it carefully and don't let it flow out." Su Mo'er stammered.

"Understood, Sister Su Mo'er." Jiu'er said, holding the medicine jar carefully, and walked in front.

Su Mo'er followed behind, holding the bundle tightly in her arms, slowly touching the outside of the bundle with her hands.From outside the burden, she touched something like a book.

"I must have asked for it from Lu Qingyi before I left Guangchusi." She thought.

"Aside from books, will he give me other things?" Su Mo'er blushed when she thought about it, and scolded herself in her heart:

"What are you thinking, don't be ashamed!"

After Su Mo'er took the burden back to her residence, she hid it under her pillow, and then went to serve Bumbutai to drink medicine.

After Bumbutai finished drinking the medicine, he suddenly looked at Su Mo'er with searching eyes, which made her a little puzzled.

"Your Majesty, is there something wrong with the servant?"

Bumbutai smiled: "Su Moer, I think you are a little different from usual today."

"Different? What's different?" Su Mo'er looked at her clothes.

"You're a little out of your mind today." Bumbutai stared at her face.

Su Mo'er touched her hot face, and said in a panic, "Soul...soul not guarding...shouping? No, no!"

Bumbutai chuckled: "When you asked me to drink medicine before, you always tasted it first. This is your habit. But today you don't. You can forget your habit, but..."

Before Bumbutai finished speaking, Su Moer's eyes widened in shock: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, slave..."

"Okay, okay!" Bumbutai pulled Su Mo'er away.

"You and I are like sisters now, even..." Bumbutai thought of his sister Hai Lanzhu, paused and said, "Better than a real sister. Don't keep kneeling in the future, what's the matter?" Just say it, just like I will tell you everything. In this harem, which is like an abyss and cannot see the bottom, we must support each other."

"My lady, thank you, my lady. Ever since I followed my lady, I have been thinking of waiting and serving my lady for the rest of my life." After Su Mo'er said these words, she pushed away all the panic caused by the burden Lu Qingyi had just given her. up.

Su Mo'er put all her mind on Bumbutai, and was busy serving her as usual every day.After a busy day, Su Mo'er dragged her tired body back to the room when Bumbutai fell asleep.Lying on the bed, feeling that the place where the head rested was uncomfortable, it was only then that I remembered the baggage under the pillow.

Su Mo'er's calm heart seemed to be thrown into another stone, causing ripples again.She took out the bundle from under the pillow, stared at it blankly, hesitating whether to open it or not.She was eager to open it and see other things besides the book, but she was also afraid of other things.

In Su Mo'er's mind, Lu Qingyi's appearance and the look in Lu Qingyi's eyes that made her panic when he saw her emerged.

Su Mo'er won the competition with Mingzhu, and got the qualification to design official clothes, concubines' clothes, and court ladies' clothes.After the design was completed, she was asked to form a production team with people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Guangchu Department to supervise the production of costumes, so as to ensure that on the day of the royal ceremony, all those who participated in the ceremony could wear new costumes.

There are mainly four people in their team, and these four people have their own division of labor: the Minister of Internal Affairs, Xinabuku, is in charge, Su Moer is in charge of design, and two painters, Lu Qingyi and Wuyou, are responsible for choosing colors and clothing materials. .

Because his niece Wuyou failed to win the design of Mingzhu, Xinabuku was very angry to see Su Mo'er joining their clothing production team.

"How can a maid design such an important costume? Maids are servants who serve the master. How can they be allowed to dominate something? Since the design is done, how can we let her participate in the production?" Xinab Ku said with a dark face.

"This is something that the emperor personally decided. Although she is a maid, all the clothing samples she provided are better than anyone else's. If your Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Guangchu Department can do this well, it will naturally be the same. You don't need to let a servant do it. But you didn't do it well, and the emperor was very satisfied with what this servant did. Could it be that you even violated the emperor's will?" Dorgon said slowly.

"But..." Xinabuku wanted to say more, but Dorgon waved his hand: "The matter is already like this, and it is useless to talk about it. This is the emperor's decision. If it affects the grand ceremony at that time, you are the only one to ask!"

After Dorgon finished speaking, he turned and left.

Although Xinabuku was still dissatisfied, he had to implement it, and Su Mo'er had to go to the Guangchu Division from time to time.When Su Moer first went to Guangchu Division, she first saw Wuyou.

"Are you the personal maid next to Concubine Zhuang?" When Wu You saw Su Mo'er, she circled around her, stopped in front of her, and stared at her closely, as if trying to see through her.

Su Mo'er felt Wuyou's unfriendliness and hostility.After staying in the palace for a long time, she also knows that tolerance is the first priority, so she humbly said to Wuyou: "Yes, this servant is the maid next to Concubine Zhuang, her name is Su Moer, please..."

Before Su Mo'er finished speaking, Wu You gave her a vicious look.

"Hmph! Who knows what method you used to design it, what kind of clothes would a servant like you design? What kind of female talent are you? What a joke!"

Su Mo'er was stunned, Wuyou pouted, turned and left.

Su Mo'er sighed lightly.

The first meeting between Su Mo'er and Lu Qingyi left a deep impression on her.That day, after being cast a blank stare at Wuyou's place, she sat there resentfully, waiting for Lu Qingyi.

Although I have never met him, I am no stranger to him.First of all, Lu Qingyi is the nephew of her painting teacher Lu Shan. In addition, before she and Mingzhu competed in the design, Bumbutai asked Mammy to borrow books from Lu Qingyi, so she always wanted to find an opportunity to thank him.

"What kind of person is Master Lu?" Su Mo'er asked a maid of the Guangchu Department.

"Lord Lu's paintings are very good, and he is also handsome." The maid said in a low voice, her face flushed.

Dorgon appeared in Su Mo'er's mind.

"Is it like Prince Dorgon?" Su Mo'er thought.

Although Su Mo'er has met many men from the Horqin Grassland to the Shengjing Palace, in her impression, the most handsome and good-looking one is Dorgon.So when the maid said that Lu Qingyi was handsome, he naturally felt that he should be like Dorgon.But when she actually met Lu Qingyi, she realized that Lu Qingyi was completely different from Dorgon.His face is thinner and longer than Dorgon's, and his skin is fairer than Dorgon's.Although the body doesn't look as strong as Dorgon's, it gives people a healthy and bright feeling.

When Lu Qing saw Su Mo'er for the first time, his eyes were full of smiles, which made Su Mo'er very warm.

"You are Su Moer? Su Moer who was named a female scholar by the emperor?" Lu Qingyi's words were different from others. He did not add a sentence before talking about her like others. The maid next to Concubine Zhuang".

Just because of this sentence, Su Mo'er unexpectedly took an extra look at Lu Qing.The eyes of the two met, and Su Mo'er's heart trembled. She immediately guessed that he was Lu Qingyi, hurriedly lowered her head, and whispered, "Yes! This servant is the personal maid of Concubine Zhuang, and her name is Su Moer! Thank you Master Lu for your book."
