Difficulty concubine

Chapter 34

The next day, the first rays of sunlight in the morning came into the room through the window. Jin Bao and Tong Xi approached the inner room lightly. The two hesitated for a long time, but when they saw that there was no sound in the curtain, they could only stand aside quietly with their hands down. Wait quietly.

"It's the time of day now, master got up a bit late today." Jin Bao said softly with Tong Xi.

Tong Xi looked a little anxious, nodded his head slightly and replied: "I think I was scared by what happened last night, we are waiting, if Wenjiang Garden comes again, you let Yinbao deal with it first."

"What time is it?" Jiao Niang heard Tong Xi's voice in a half-dream and half-awake state, she stretched out her arms and stuck out the curtain, her delicate face was full of confusion, her slightly dry red lips were pursed, her tone was soft Weak.

"When it's just Chen, the master should get up earlier today, Mrs. Tai just sent someone to ask." Jin Bao replied softly, and hung the curtains on the soft gold hooks on both sides neatly.

Jiao Niang raised her hand and rubbed her eyes, and finally got up patiently, put on a satin smock casually, and washed it up under Yin Bao's service, but she did not forget to tell Tong Xi when combing her hair: "This time, go It is not allowed to stay in the temple for a few days, I am afraid that you will not be able to return to the mansion until two days before the New Year's Eve, you and Jin Bao will stay in the yard and watch over them, if anyone sees that I am not in the mansion, they will feel restless, just do it. Tell Wu Yiniang to go, and get rid of it as soon as possible."

"Your servant understands, master can rest assured, but if you only bring Yinbao and Tonggui, I'm afraid you will not be well served." Tongxi's long and delicate eyebrows formed a Sichuan character.

"Going to the Temple of the Reclining Buddha is not meant to enjoy blessings. It is enough to take the two of them." Jiao Niang said softly, raising her hand to take off the red emerald dripping beads, trembling branches and gilt gilt steps on her bun, and put on an eight-treasure Gather pearls and white jade hairpins, then spread out her arms, and ask Tonggui to put on a spring brocade long dress with light pink lotus root and silk that is pale to almost whitish. After dressing up neatly, she will go to Wenjiang Garden to say goodbye to Changchun Courtyard , seeing Yin Bao rolled in with a thick jacket like a glutinous rice dumpling, he didn't dare to go forward, but moved away from a distance and blessed Jiao Niang, saying in his mouth: "Master , Prince Ying’s mansion sent someone to pick you up, Madam asked Ruixiang to send a message, saying that you don’t have to go to the Reclining Buddha Temple, pack up and go with the people from Prince Ying’s mansion, don’t make them wait for a long time.”

Jiao Niang was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that it must not be so simple, perhaps it was the aunt who passed the message to the Fifth Sister, and that's why today's Prince Ying came to pick him up, and Jiao Niang stretched her beautiful eyebrows, A few smiles flashed in his eyes, and he said to Yinbao: "If you send someone back to Madam, just say that I will clean up and go there." After finishing speaking, he tore off the white jade hairpin with eight treasures and pouted, "Take it to me." The white jade palace lantern Bu Yao is packed in a brocade box, and I want the box with white magnolia engraved on it."

Tong Xi hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Master, if you want to give it away, it is better to choose another one. That Bu Yao was given to you by the third master. If he knows in the future, something may happen."

When Jiao Niang heard this, a cold look flashed across her slightly narrowed star eyes, and she laughed at herself: "Then change to another one! You can't leave empty-handed when you go to the palace as a guest. You should choose one carefully, and don't let it go away." Fifth Sister lost face." After that, he asked Tong Gui to wait for him to redress, so as not to be rude in front of Princess Ying.

A palanquin ushered Jiaoniang into Prince Ying's mansion, and the fifth lady, Concubine Wei Wei, did not put on airs. She waited at the second gate with someone early in the morning, and when she saw someone coming, she went up to meet her, holding her hand. Jiao Niang's hand, only said: "Fortunately, Auntie sent a letter."

Jiao Niang curved her lips into a smile, and said softly: "I have caused trouble for my sister again."
