Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 38 Bai Pingting as a demon

It was past half hour when I returned to Mosheng Garden from Liu’s house. Xia Zijin soaked her body in the warm pool water sprinkled with fragrant flowers. The room is full of fragrance.

"Princess, today the cousin of the Liu family is clearly targeting the princess on purpose, why do you still speak for her?" Xiaokui muttered as she sprinkled fresh petals from the rattan flower basket into the pool.

Xia Zijin poured warm pool water on her collarbone with her hands. The rushing and flowing touch seemed to be the most gentle hand, gently stroking every inch of her skin.

"What's the matter with her, the princess? She's just a brainless person. Let her make trouble, and she will have to blame herself if something goes wrong in the future." Xia Zijin said lazily. Her temperament of offending people is nothing more than the so-called flattery. Since she can't be angry with herself, she will be angry with others in the future. As long as Liu Qianxian is arrogant, she will be unpopular.

Xiaokui nodded thoughtfully, but didn't think too deeply.

Xia Zijin dipped comfortably into the pool water, and the warm touch enveloped her skin. She was not going to spend her mind on Liu Xianxian now, and let herself stir up the wind and waves.What she wants to do right now is to give another big gift to Bai Pingting who has lost two big trees that depend on her.

"Xiaokui, what day is it today?"

"Today is the fourteenth day of mid-December. In half a month, it will be New Year's Eve!" Xiaokui said with a grin. Every New Year's Eve, the palace is full of excitement. For the annual reward, fireworks and sky lanterns will be set off on the Temple of Heaven at noon, which is very beautiful.

"New Year's Eve..." Xia Zijin said silently. She already had a plan in her heart. In a few days, the female relatives of each family would be busy. These two days were the happiest time a year ago. She had to Make good use of this opportunity and give this big gift to Bai Pingting before New Year's Eve.

At the end of the day, in Prince Lin's mansion.

Bai Pingting was staring at the dinner in front of her, which was so plain that she couldn't see a single bit of meat. She held her chopsticks to pick and choose among the bowls containing boiled cabbage, and then reached into a bowl of green beans. After fiddling with the chopsticks a few times, the dissatisfaction and anger on his face were ready to come out.

"These dog slaves! They actually gave this concubine this!" She scolded sharply, and slapped the chopsticks on the table.

"Side Concubine Empress...you can just settle down, Shi Zifei said, today is the [-]th day, women in our mansion are advised to be vegetarian, meat is forbidden." Bi'er, Bai Pingting's personal maid, whispered.

When Bai Pingting heard that it was Huang Chenyan's idea again, she became even more angry. She didn't know where Huang Chenyan made a mistake. She said that the fifteenth day of every month is a good time for self-cultivation and she likes to eat vegetarian food. That's all, the whole Shizi's backyard has to eat with her.

"It's just relying on her status as a concubine, what's there to be proud of!" Bai Pingting shouted towards the door at the top of her voice.

Bi'er hastily came over and took Bai Pingting's arm, she shook her head and said, "Miss Concubine, don't get angry with Shi Zifei, it's just this day, just bear with it!"

Bai Pingting shook off Bi'er's hand, and rolled her eyes vigorously. Now she has fallen out of favor in front of the queen mother, and even the Bai family treats her lukewarm, let alone the people in Prince Lin's mansion.

These bullying slaves, when she was proud in the past, all of them fawned on her. Even if Huang Chenyan asked everyone to fast on the [-]th of every month, the servants in the kitchen would secretly make meat dishes and deliver them, but now they say nothing to her The concubine's order cannot be violated, I really want to laugh to death.

"No, this concubine can't just sit and wait for death like this!" Bai Pingting clutched the corner of her clothes and said through gritted teeth.

She had already lost two backers, and now if she wanted to gain a foothold in Prince Lin's Mansion, she could only hold on to Lin Runyu's heart, otherwise it would be hopeless.

"Where is the son?"

"Back to the concubine, my son is eating in the room of my concubine right now." Bi'er said, raising her eyes to take a sneak peek at Bai Pingting, fearing that she would not be able to hold back after hearing this.

Sure enough, Bai Pingting's eyes turned cold, and she laughed strangely with her voice trembling.

"A down-and-out young lady in an empty general's mansion also puts on the airs of a concubine. She thinks she's a rare lady, but she's just a seductress who invites pets every day!" Bai Pingting said sourly, but she didn't care. Notice Bier's slightly helpless expression.

Bi'er didn't dare to say it, but she shook her head and sighed in her heart. When it comes to Humei, who can beat Bai Pingting? In this month alone, she has already invited the eldest son from the room of the imperial concubine and other concubines. Three times, if it wasn't for the magnanimity of the concubine, I'm afraid she will have good fruit to eat.

Bai Pingting cursed for a while on her own, then calmed down, turned to Bi'er and said, "Bi'er, you were in the concubine's room and said that the concubine had a cold yesterday, and now my son is sick Nonsense, I can only call Shi Ziye by name, let Shi Ziye come over quickly!"

Bi'er was called by her to snatch people in the Huangchen smoke room, feeling unlucky, she hesitated and said: "The side concubine... I'm afraid it's not appropriate..."

The last time she went to the Concubine Jiang's room for Bai Pingting to invite the eldest son, she had already offended the person in that room, and this time she had to go to the concubine's room again, working next to Concubine Bai, it was really uncomfortable tight.

"If there's anything wrong, you can go if you're told. Could it be that the concubine's words won't work for you?" Bai Pingting glared at Bi'er, then lowered her face and said in a low voice.

Bi'er dared to disobey, she cowardly blessed Fu and responded, and trotted out in two or three steps.

On the other end, Huang Chenyan was discussing with Lin Runyu about going to the palace to participate in the banquet on New Year's Eve in half a month. Every New Year's Eve, there will be a grand New Year's Eve banquet in the palace, and the entire royal family is invited. Lin Runyu, as King Lin The son-in-law, of course, has to attend, and the main wife in each mansion also goes with her husband.

"Chenyan, I will trouble you to sort out all the gifts and lists that will come into the palace at that time. My husband has recently arranged a business on the southern coast for the prince. I am afraid that I have no time to spare."

Lin Runyu said that since he was dismissed from all positions by Ming Shengdi, he has lost his role in political affairs. The crown prince left all the private business to him. I'm worried, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult to do in court in the future.

"I'll save myself." Huang Chenyan nodded, reached out and picked up a slice of vinegared lotus root and put it in Lin Runyu's bowl.

"My lord! My lord!"

The two of them were talking in this room, but they heard someone trotting in from the door, and saw Bi'er next to Bai Pingting, she held up her skirt, knelt down on her knees and bowed, and said: "Slave to the son , Princess Concubine, please greet me!"

Lin Runyu chewed and ate the food in the bowl slowly, put down the chopsticks and said, "What's the matter?"

"The concubine Bai is sick, she can't eat, she can't sleep well, she just reads the name of the son, the servants have no choice but to ask the master to come and see our empress..." Bi'er While talking, he carefully looked at Huang Chenyan's face sitting next to Lin Runyu, and saw that Huang Chenyan was just sipping the rice in the bowl with a calm expression, and there was no sign of an attack, so he felt relieved .

"Ill?" Lin Runyu frowned. In the past, Bai Pingting had some status in his heart, but it was only before she fell out of favor with the Queen Mother. Then she also underestimated Bai Pingting.

It's just that Bai Pingting has some taste for him now. Among so many concubines, Bai Pingting is the one who wins his heart the most.

"Yes, Shizi, our mother's son is lying on the bed weakly, and I'm afraid that if we don't see Shizi again, he will fall ill again!"

"In that case, I will take a look." Lin Runyu nodded, got up and followed Bi'er who led the way to Bai Pingting's courtyard.

Huang Chenyan also followed this time. Since she married into Lin Wang's mansion and became the head of the house, she has always been generous to the concubines in the mansion, and she has no need to treat anyone harshly.It's just that this side concubine Bai seems to love to compete with her very much, and often uses her status to overwhelm the other concubines, which disturbs the other concubines and often complains to her, which makes her a headache.

A concubine raised in the palace, if she is well-behaved, it's fine, if she makes trouble, Huang Chenyan can't tolerate her.

Walking all the way to Bai Pingting's room, Lin Runyu stepped into the inner room, and saw Bai Pingting on the bed, wearing a jacket, leaning softly on the pillow, her pure color was a touch of red, and her cheeks were light Fen, although a little weak, doesn't look sick.

"Pingting, Bi'er said you were sick, isn't it nice for me to look at you?" Lin Runyu said as she sat on the side of the bed, flipping up her back robe.

Bai Pingting bit her lip, twitched and slid into Lin Runyu's arms, her limp body pressed against his strong chest, she raised her head and said, "Isn't this concubine sick, suffering from lovesickness, Thinking about Shizi every day, my heart is flustered, and I am haggard!"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Lin Runyu with watery eyes, cowardly in her tenderness, and charming in her timidity, which really ignited the fire in Lin Runyu's heart.

"Isn't my son here? Let me see, you are a little haggard. You are my little heart, and you should take good care of it. If you get haggard again, I will feel sorry for you!" Lin Runyu also said. He hugged Bai Pingting tightly, and let her restless little hands draw circles on his chest. What he liked most was Bai Pingting's small mouth, which was sweeter than a honeypot, even if she was a little delicate sometimes, You can also ignore it.

Bai Pingting nodded with a blushing face, then rubbed her face into Lin Runyu's arms, suddenly saw Huang Chenyan also came with Lin Runyu, standing three steps away without saying a word.
