Chapter 461 Decreed Canonization (1)
Ruoxi looked at the little Princess and smiled, but thought in her heart that this side concubine was no ordinary person, she just made her polite words true in a few words.

After the dim sum was used up, guests left one after another, and the rest were relatives and friends.Ruoxi brought her natal family to Linfengju to entertain her, and the others were naturally busy reminiscing with relatives and friends.The concubine naturally went with the third wife, and the concubine Fang Gui also invited the inspector Shang Gong.The old matriarch was getting old, and she could barely support herself by sitting until the guests dispersed. Mrs. Hou waited on her and went back to her room to rest.

It's just that the third wife and her party went back to the Chrysanthemum Appreciation Garden, and let the side concubine and the inspector Shang Gong, Nanny Li, into the upper room.This upper room is still vacant, but it is cleaned every day, but it is spotless.Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar furnishings inside, the third wife felt a sense of sadness in her heart.

"Hurry up and serve tea." The third wife ordered the girl softly.

A hint of calculation flashed in the eyes of the concubine Fang Gui who was sitting next to her. She knew that this side concubine was so arrogant that she would not drink any tea except the top-quality Royal Tribute tea, but this Nanny Li only drank extremely cheap scented tea.If they followed their preferences, it would be a little contemptuous of Nanny Li.But if they treat everyone equally, Nanny Li really doesn't like it.

Now let's see how the girl serves tea, if she fails to do so, both ends will be offended.Hmph, not everyone can do the job of entertaining guests!Anyway, it's the third wife who is here to entertain the guests, she can't wait to watch the excitement.

After a while, the little girl came in with a tea tray, served everyone a cup of tea and then left.

Concubine Fang Gui glanced at the reactions of the side concubine and Nanny Li, and was startled when they saw them holding up the teacups, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

As the tea cover was lifted, a faint scent of flowers wafted out, making people feel refreshed after smelling it.

Immediately, I heard the third wife say: "The side concubine and Nanny Li have eaten all kinds of good tea, but my tea is special. They are all made from the freshest petals dried in the shade, and they have different effects when brewed together. The side concubine's cup contains roses, jasmine, and a small amount of saffron, which can beautify the skin after drinking it. Mammy Li drinks chrysanthemum and lavender, which are specially used to treat insomnia and headaches."

The two felt novelty after hearing this, and took a sip one after another. After drinking it, the side concubine nodded slightly and said: "It tastes very fragrant, and it leaves a fragrance on the teeth and cheeks after one sip, and it relieves a lot of greasy."

"What the side concubine said is very true. As for the effect, you can't know it just by taking a sip. The old concubine also suffers from insomnia and headaches. If drinking this tea can cure her, it will be a great joy." Li Mammy smiled and said, "However, I don't dare to offer ordinary things to the concubine directly. After I use it and feel good, I will ask the third wife."

After hearing this, the third wife hurriedly ordered someone to pack some of the two kinds of tea separately, and take them back to the side concubine and Nanny Li later.

Concubine Fang Gui also picked up the teacup, took a sip and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, my sister still has this rare item, and this is the first time for my sister to drink it."

"You don't like drinking tea the most. When you're thirsty, you drink honey water, or you tell the girl to boil sugar water. This tea is bland, so it can only be left dry when I give it to you. It's not like those top-quality Longjing and Yunwu, which can still drink tea." Cook a tea egg." The third wife joked, her tone very intimate.

The side concubine was puzzled when she heard the words, and the third wife replied with a smile: "The side concubine and Nanny Li don't know something, my sister is a prodigal, the tea in the bottles and cans is moldy, and I don't see her soaking it once. Throwing it away and being reluctant, I ordered the girl to take it and boil tea eggs, which are all top-quality tea leaves. I feel distressed when I see this. You listen to what she said, anyway, after eating and drinking, it’s all in the stomach, so it’s not a waste! She still makes sense, hehehe." After finishing speaking, the third wife laughed.

The side concubine and Nanny Li also laughed when they heard this, because the noble concubine was so angry that she had to put on a smile on her face, "My sister humiliated me in front of outsiders, I don't agree."

"Okay, I'll wait for my sister to find some good tea for you tomorrow. You can eat it in your stomach, and you won't waste it. It's just that this scented tea can't be given to you, because it can't cook tea eggs."

Everyone laughed again, and the side concubine said that the relationship between the two was better than that of sisters, but they didn't know how uncomfortable this noble concubine was.

Concubine Fang Gui wholeheartedly wanted to see the third wife's jokes, but she did not expect that she would easily defuse them. She even made fun of her in front of the side concubine and Nanny Li, but she couldn't get angry.The concubine Fang Gui had never suffered such a loss from the third wife, she suddenly felt that her internal organs were swollen and painful, and there was a fire running up and down in her heart.

It is said that a dog that bites does not bark, and it seems that this statement is true.These three wives have been eating fast and praying to Buddha for many years, why did they suddenly change their sex now?
The side concubine saw that her cousin had the same three-pointed color as when she was a girl in her natal family, and she smiled a little more in her eyes.In her opinion, which big family is not fighting openly and secretly, and every family has hard-to-recite scriptures. If they can't fight, they go to serve the Buddha. Wouldn't the Buddha be full of resentful women?The current third wife is just like the members of their Cui family. It seems that several years of self-reflection before the Buddha has enlightened her to some extent.

"Mother Li, is the concubine in good health? I am always thinking about it but I can no longer serve you in person. I really appreciate your hard work." The concubine Fang Gui is a relative of the old concubine, and she knows who her backer is. , naturally he is very concerned about the old concubine's body.She hoped that Concubine Toffee would live a long life, and there was no false meaning in her tone.

"Third Concubine, don't worry, the Concubine is in good health. It's not because of the thoroughness of the servants, but because of the emperor's filial piety and sincerity." At this point, Nanny Li stood up and saluted in the direction of the palace. The third wife and others hurriedly got up, "For the sake of the body of the concubine, the emperor specially sent people to the Ganlu Temple to pray for blessings and bless the concubine's health."

"Yes, the emperor is busy with state affairs and can't go in person, so he specially ordered the prince to go. The emperor also specially told the prince to kneel and beg sincerely before the Buddha, without any slack. The prince is in the same mood as the emperor, for Mrs. How dare the concubine be lazy to pray? I went to Ganlu Temple for three days and ate vegetarian food for three days, and when the prince came back, I lost weight. But the prince said that everything is worth it for the health of the concubine.” The side concubine said with a smile with.

The third wife replied with a light smile: "The emperor is a model of filial sons in the whole world, and the people support and worship the whole world. The prince is a famous virtuous king, and he assists the emperor to do his best. When the emperor was alive, he once said that there are emperors and princes in heaven Two brothers unite as one, and the heavenly dynasty can be preserved forever."

Concubine Fang Gui was startled when she heard the words, she didn't know there was such an allusion.

The side concubine smiled after hearing this, and said to the third wife: "I think back then when my father and uncle came back from the court, they talked with a loss of interest as soon as they entered the mansion. What they said was what the late emperor said. You and my sisters have been naughty since childhood, like men. My child, I overheard this and didn't know the seriousness, and even uttered nonsense in secret."

"My younger sister also said, 'The crown prince is naturally excellent. I don't know how this prince can be a virtuous character'. Does my younger sister know the answer now?" The third wife covered her mouth and laughed lightly.
