Story of the Forbidden Palace - C96
“Oh?” Madame Jin stopped crying and looked at me suspiciously with her teary eyes. Despite my grief, I still exuded a strong sense of gentleness, which made me feel uncomfortable all over.
Calming myself, I said with a gentle smile: “Elder sister, think about it. Other than Third Prince Yun Yu, there are also the Little Yi Xu and the noble Madame Zhuang s living in elder sister’s palace. I heard that the Madame Zhuang isn’t in good shape either. Elder sister must have to put in a lot of effort to manage this palace. ”
I deliberately paused, and after carefully observing Madame Jin’s expression, I continued, “Besides Empress and Imperial Noble Consort, Third Brother, who has been following the Emperor for the longest period of time and has also added intelligence and wisdom to the Emperor, is naturally a head above him.”
“And in the recent days, Empress Dowager has grown more and more fond of peace and tranquility. I’m afraid that in the future, she will also dispense with the courtesies of other concubines. It was naturally Empress Dowager who wanted her to be the first one to receive the imperial decree. In the future, when it comes to the other concubines, naturally, we have to use Big Sister as our role model. ”
Madame Jin’s eyes turned clever. Previously, she was like a weeping beauty, but now she had a hint of a smile on her face. She was slightly pleased with herself, “What little sister said is reasonable. Empress Dowager treats her sister very well too, I believe you understand what the empress dowager is thinking. ”
I didn’t continue her sentence. I only lightly touched on the crux of my illness. “In my sister’s opinion, not only can I not be displeased, I must be magnanimous and accept the decree …”
The Madame Jin was clever, she had already understood what I meant. “Thank you, Little Sister, for your advice.” She hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face. She couldn’t help but feel that her makeup had been ruined. It was still the same charming and charming girl who kneeled down towards me. I thanked her, “I rely on little sister’s advice. I have truly benefited greatly from this.”
Naturally, I helped her up, and humbly smiled at her, “Elder sister, how can you acknowledge me? Ever since I entered the palace, only my sister came to my palace often, and she worked hard for me. He kept thinking, “If there’s an elder sister, then there’s my day.” Now I can share my sister’s worries, it’s just something my sister should do. Elder sister’s current state makes me uneasy. ”
“Sister is right. If there is a good day for me, there will naturally be a day for sister.” Madame Jin tightly held onto my hand, she was extremely moved. The only problem was that the bright red gemstone on her hand was reflecting the golden sunlight, giving off a dazzling light.
After she finished speaking, Madame Jin seemed to have thought of something and suddenly summoned Bai Shao to present an exquisite round box, about the size of her palm. The top lid of the round box was slightly narrower, and the bottom lid was slightly wider. The whole body is painted with the blue pattern of bats and deer, which means “Forlux is connected”.
Seeing that I did not understand, the Madame Jin smiled obsequiously: “This is a specially ordered cosmetic cream. It is full of rare and expensive medicinal ingredients such as snow lotus, Southern Pearl powder, and so on. “Sister, please don’t worry about it. If you need a good sister, please send some others over.”
“How could I accept such a valuable item!” I really don’t need such a thing, so naturally I wouldn’t dare to use it as a gift.
Madame Jin forced it on me. “You and I are the emperor’s concubines to begin with and we even call each other sisters, so we should share the same feelings. It’s not like I have to decline, right? ”
Seeing that I couldn’t refuse, I could only accept it. “In that case, little sister will suffer a loss.” He called for Ning Zhi to put away the round box, and then chatted with Madame Jin for a bit before parting.
Later that day, Qingwu carried the round box into Internal Hall. I raised my head to signal to her. ” This servant has already carefully inspected the Cosmetic Cultivation Ointment in the box. It was indeed made from precious medicinal ingredients, and did not find any inappropriate ingredients. ”
I nodded my head, just as Geyser was about to put down his cosmetics, I said neither slowly nor slowly, “I’m used to using the skin cream that you made for me. Why would I want anything else? Let’s just throw it away. ”
The light mist complied, then it carried the lacquer plate and retreated.
