Good morning Mr. Zhongtang

Chapter 27

With that loud singing, Tong Wanrou's heart almost rose to her throat.

From childhood to adulthood, this time should be the only time she has acted alone, without any help and hope around her, and she can only walk out of this uncertain road with an uncertain future.

With his head down, he followed the footsteps of the maidservant and quickly moved into the palace in small steps. This is also the rule in the palace. When meeting the master, you must slow down your pace to avoid the master's impatience, and it is the same when you leave.

Tong Wanrou stepped on the flowerpot shoes, and followed into the inner hall. The main hall turned to the right and entered the inner hall. The inner hall was also unique and elegant. There were a few people standing on the east side of the inner hall. Tong Wanrou secretly looked up Look, the beautiful figure in the crowd is really eye-catching. I saw that she was wearing a glittering autumn dress, standing in front of the south window, teasing a colorful bird with a pruned reed stalk. The parrot, occasionally the parrot will make a few calls, which roughly means:

"Master is lucky, master is lucky."

Tong Wanrou was brought in front of the virtuous person, without being asked, Tong Wanrou knelt down and saluted her.

The virtuous man came from the window, her slender figure didn't change much, maybe she was still young, but she came from the south window with an elegant and calm smile, helped Tong Wanrou up personally, and waited on her side. The servant girl said slowly:
"Give a seat."

The maid went away in response, Tong Wanrou was stunned and did not get up, but was helped up by the maid next to her, and bowed to thank the virtuous person, then sat down nervously under her.

The virtuous man lay lazily on the soft couch. The soft pillow under his arm looked very ordinary, but Tong Wanrou knew that it would never be as ordinary as its appearance.

"When I met the palace last year, I heard Erniang mention that Fu Heng fell in love with a girl. I was very curious at that time, thinking that I must meet you sometime."

After hearing what the virtuous man said, Tong Wanrou raised her face to let the virtuous man see clearly, and let her meet Fu Heng's sister by the way.

I just feel that the virtuous man and Fu Heng don't look very much alike. Fu Heng's facial features are more soft and handsome, but the virtuous man has a heroic face, and the atmosphere between his brows is enough to make her instantly kill all beauties.It is convincing.

After looking at Tong Wanrou for a moment, the virtuous man nodded to her and said:

"You are fine. Fu Heng made the money."

Having received such a face-to-face compliment from the virtuous man, Tong Wanrou lowered her head shyly, only to hear the virtuous man say again:
"I am also lonely in the palace, so I want to find a companion. Don't worry too much, I am Fu Heng's biological sister after all."

Xu Shi, a virtuous man, saw Tong Wanrou's uneasiness, so he spoke out to comfort her.

Tong Wanrou heard Fu Heng repeatedly mentioned in her words, and understood that this is a noble person who used her own method to appease Tong Wanrou, so as to reduce her anxiety in this strange environment. Tong Wanrou was really touched by this thoughtfulness. Thinking of the paddock where I met Fu Heng, the virtuous man had already ordered the inner eunuch to give her several plates of melon and fruit snacks. If he didn't like her or recognize her, he definitely wouldn't treat her so kindly.

Thinking of this, Tong Wanrou felt much more at ease, she stood up and blessed the virtuous person, and thanked on the spot:

"Yes, my sister-in-law also wants to thank my sister for the food that day in the paddock. My husband and my sister have been close to each other since childhood, and the relationship must be very good. Although my sister-in-law enters the palace alone to accompany my sister, I will do my best to take care of my sister. Do what you can, and wait for the birth of the little prince with all your heart. Please rest assured, sister."

The virtuous man listened quietly to Tong Wanrou's words, and after she had finished speaking, she nodded in relief and said to the mother on the side:

"Tong Jia's Wanrou will temporarily act as the aunt in charge of the Shuiyun Palace, and will directly follow my orders. You can take her down to get acquainted with the affairs of the palace."

Tong Wanrou knelt down involuntarily to thank you while listening, but her heart was shaking like a drum, and her eardrums were aching from the beating of the drum in her heart. She just said that she wanted to do some small things within her power for the virtuous, serving tea and water, How could she suddenly be asked to do things like shaking a fan and pinching her shoulders as the aunt in charge?

As far as she knew, the aunt in charge of the palace was promoted after being selected by court ladies with many years of experience, and now it only takes a few words, so asking her to take charge is too child's play, Tong Wanrou still wanted to say something, so she saw The nanny who was standing behind the virtuous man had already walked towards her, raised her hand respectfully, and said to her:
"Auntie please."

"..."

Tong Wanrou's scalp was numb, and there was probably no room for change in the matter. Since the virtuous person had already meant this, it wasn't something she could just say a few words now to make her take it back. If that was the case, then she didn't need to say anything else.

He was about to leave with the nanny, but at this moment, there was an eunuch guarding outside singing:
"Shurou Hall Qi Concubine Empress is here!"

The nanny who led Tong Wanrou out suddenly froze, and hurriedly pulled Tong Wanrou to the door and bowed her head and knelt down. After a while, she felt a scent of fragrance rushing in, which made people feel pungent. Tong Wanrou frowned secretly, and then, It was only when she leaned down that she could see that the lord of the fragrance walked into the hall with a light gait. Judging from her shoes and skirt, the Empress Qi seemed to be advocating luxury. Her vertical hem alone, It is inlaid with hundreds of pearl rice seeds the size of a thumbnail, and as Concubine Qi moves, it is very radiant.

Because Concubine Qi's status is higher than that of the virtuous and noble, so the virtuous and noble stood up from the soft couch, gave up the main seat in the hall, went forward to greet the concubine Qi, and saluted the concubine Qi.

"See Concubine Qi."

All the maidservants and eunuchs in the nobleman's palace also knelt down with the master, but Concubine Qi didn't act as a flatterer, but sat on the soft couch of the nobleman. She really looked like a master and neglected The nobles and everyone in the palace.

Seeing that there was no movement for a long time, Tong Wanrou couldn't help but secretly raised her eyes to look up, and saw that the body of the virtuous man had not yet stood up, but the smile on his face was calm and indisputable, and he didn't see the slightest bit of embarrassment when he was half squatting.

Concubine Qi seems to be fighting against a noble person, she looks like you don't talk to me, I don't talk to you, anyway, you stand, I sit, see who can't stand it, sit on the soft couch and watch nail.

Finally, a trace of discomfort appeared on the face of the virtuous and noble, and the maid next to Concubine Qi whispered a few words in her ear, Concubine Qi reluctantly raised her hand and said:
"Get up."

Concubine Qi's words came almost two cups of tea late, but she acted as if nothing had happened, it was just that time stood still for a while, and the servants in the palace also stood up one by one, as if they were not surprised by this scene up.

The virtuous man stood there with a pale face, only to see Concubine Qi smiling at her and saying:

"A noble person is pregnant, it is not suitable to stand for a long time, please sit down quickly."

"..."

Concubine Qi's voice was a little low, and what she said was very uncomfortable. It was obvious that she had made the whole room kneel for a long time and told the virtuous people to squat for so long, but now she said it seemed to be virtuous. The nobleman didn't know how to take care of herself, so Tong Wanrou couldn't help but sneak a glance at Concubine Qi who was sitting on the soft couch, and saw that her noble face was full of sarcasm, and the upturned corners of her mouth showed her success.

Yes, in fact, all of this was intentional by Concubine Qi.

Her original intention was to let the virtuous man sit down for a while longer. After all, even if the virtuous man "squats" for good or bad, she can completely disregard the relationship, because the rule in the palace is that you have to salute when you meet a high-ranking man. Something went wrong while saluting, so who is to blame?

Thinking of Concubine Qi's sinister thoughts, Tong Wanrou couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat. Everyone said that the palace is a place where people cannibalize. It was the first day she came in and she saw such a scene. It was really scary.

But she was used to seeing noble people, except that she squatted for too long and her face was a little pale, everything else was as calm as Concubine Qi showed.

"I know that you are pregnant and weak, so I specially ordered someone to make this bowl of blood swallow, so you can drink it while it's hot."

"..."

Tong Wanrou's eyes widened in astonishment.

According to Concubine Qi's previous routine, then this bowl of soup is very suspicious.

Tong Wanrou can now almost understand that Concubine Qi seems to be asking for help from the virtuous person, but what she did was to spare no effort to cause trouble to the virtuous person's stomach. If she squatted for such a long time before, if the pregnant woman's fetal image is unstable If it is not, it is probably because the abdomen is too hard and the fetal gas is moved, and the mind is not deep and dirty.

Now she also sent Xueyan, this... Is this bowl of soup really drinkable?Do virtuous people really drink?

I saw Concubine Qi hooking her mouth, holding the blood swallow taken out by the maid from the food box in her hand, holding a small porcelain white spoon with cardamom red nails, gently stirring the spoon in the bowl, a pair of beautiful The eyes are like a knife cutting on the sage, which puts enough pressure on the sage, and when people look at her, they feel that there is something wrong with the bowl of soup in her hand.

After such a psychological contest, Concubine Qi handed the bowl to the maid, and asked the maid to take it for the virtuous to drink.

"Hurry up and drink, Ben Gong blew on it for you, it's not so hot anymore."

"..."

Standing by the door, Tong Wanrou saw this scene, and felt that this Concubine Qi had a heart like a snake and a scorpion, but what she said and what she did were completely inconsistent. What she did seemed reasonable, and even if she said it, she couldn't find any faults. However, the client was tortured by her threats.

The virtuous man took the bowl presented by the maidservant as usual, held it in his hand, hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and thanked Concubine Qi with a smile:
"Thank you, Concubine Qi, for the reward."

After finishing speaking, in front of Concubine Qi, she ate the bowl of blood swallow spoon by spoon.

Seeing this, Tong Wanrou was already stunned.A heart was beating wildly, secretly praying that the virtuous person would be okay.
