Quickly wear! Bind to the scumbag transformation system
Chapter 212 Armor
Chen Huai glanced at the official document at hand: "Did Zhong Shuyi say what it was about?"
Zhonglu said respectfully: "Shuyi didn't say anything, she just told me to ask you to come over."
Chen Huai frowned slightly and thought for a while:
"Okay, you go back first, I'll change my clothes and come back later"
Zhonglu smiled and nodded, then lowered his head and walked out.
Xiao Anzi helped Chen Huai change into a crimson-purple court robe and took out the matching white jade crown. When Chen Huai saw it, he said:
"Change to the jade one"
Xiao Anzi was puzzled: "Didn't godfather say that jade and crimson don't go together?"
Chen Huai subconsciously felt that since he already had Rong Cheng, he shouldn't be too ostentatious in front of other women.
So he said seriously: "I want that one"
He tidied himself up a bit and was about to go out, but was stopped by Xiao Anzi. He hesitated for a long time and didn't say a word. Chen Huai was confused:
"You're looking for trouble, right? Wait until I come back."
Just as he was about to leave, Xiao Anzi said anxiously:
"No, godfather, I'm afraid Shuyi will ask you to go to Bihe Palace to be the chief eunuch."
There was no way around it before, but now his godfather has made great contributions, and how can he waste his time in the harem when he is in his prime?
Chen Huai could see that Xiao Anzi was thinking about him wholeheartedly, and he was pleased and smiled:
"Don't worry, I won't go even if you ask me to. Just work hard, and I'll keep this position of palm seal for you in the future."
After hearing this, Xiao Anzi's eyes lit up and he said with some emotion: "Don't worry, godfather, I will do my best."
Chen Huai walked out of the Imperial Household Department and thought along the way, speaking of sons, he also has a dog son, I wonder if he has gained weight recently?
And Rong Cheng, Chen Huai couldn't tell whether he was more angry with him or missed him more...
Before they knew it, they arrived at the Bihe Palace. Zhonglu saw them at the door and hurriedly came over with a smile, welcoming Chen Huai in.
"Your servant pays respects to Madam Shuyi, may Madam Shuyi be blessed with good health and good fortune."
Zhong Shuyi was leaning on the couch, wearing a green moon-brocade gauze dress with a white lotus hairpin painted between her eyebrows, which added three points of beauty to her soft face, like a lotus in clear water, so beautiful.
However, Chen Huai just took a glance and stood there, very well-behaved.
Zhong Ruolan frowned slightly, looked around herself and found nothing wrong, then said to Chen Huai in a tone:
"It's true that it's different after you've done something great. What's the matter? You don't like me, the Master Chen of the Bihe Palace? Then don't come. Go away."
Chen Huai wondered why this woman's temper was like the wind and rain in March, coming and going at any time. Seeing that she was angry, he hurriedly said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. I will always remember your kindness in giving me medicine and will never forget it."
Zhong Ruolan saw the sincerity in Chen Huai's eyes and knew that he was not lying. She then turned her anger into a smile and covered her lips with a handkerchief:
"You have a conscience"
Then she stood up, walked gracefully to Chen Huai, circled around him and looked him over:
"You've been out for a month, and you've become stronger and darker. Oh! Look at the shoes on your feet. They don't fit anymore. How rude of you."
Two big drops of cold sweat broke out on Chen Huai's forehead. Why didn't he feel that Zhong Shuyi was unreliable before? He was already in his twenties, how could his feet still grow bigger?
I really can't find the words to compliment her: "Uh...Thank you for your concern, Madam."
Zhong Ruolan had prepared everything, with a hint of excitement in her eyes. She opened a box next to the table, took out a pair of black soap-soled boots and stuffed them into Chen Huai's arms:
"Here, this is your reward, take it."
Chen Huai looked at the shoes in his hand, whose stitches were very thick and even the embroidery was crooked. A hint of shock flashed across his eyes, and he looked up at Zhong Shuyi:
"Is this made by the Empress herself?"
Zhong Ruolan's fair face flushed pink, and she waved her hand pretentiously:
"I embroidered it for fun when I had nothing to do. Your shoes are too worn out. Just think of it as my pity for you."
This was a high-handed remark, but Zhong Ruolan kept scanning Chen Huai's expression with her peripheral vision. Chen Huai touched the boots in his hand with mixed emotions, and after a moment he said in a deep voice:
"Thank you, Madam, but I cannot accept these boots."
Are you kidding? The lady in the harem could give anything else as a gift, such as gold melon seeds or gold nuts. But boots should never be given to a slave, even if he is a eunuch on the surface.
Zhong Ruolan's face looked a little ugly. She naturally knew that it was a bit unreasonable for a concubine to give this to a eunuch, but she did it anyway. When she was mending the shoes, her mind was full of the eunuch. She didn't think about anything, she just wanted to treat it as an apology for her wrong words last time.
But unexpectedly, the eunuch actually refused to accept it. Suddenly, his eyes became misty, and he sat on the stool, turned his head to the side, and said nothing, and started to get angry.
It happened that at this time, the head maid, Lu Tao, who had brought medicine to Chen Huai last time, came in to serve tea. When she saw the boots on the table, a trace of heartache flashed in her eyes. She knelt down to Chen Huai and said:
"You don't know, but when the majesty was embroidering these shoes, her hands were pierced many times. Her green onion-like fingers are covered with needle holes. I feel so sad when I see them..."
"Why are you saying all this? Just let him go and pretend that he has never been to my Bihe Palace today."
After saying this, a tear had already fallen from her eyes. Zhong Ruolan turned sideways and wiped it away stubbornly with a handkerchief.
Chen Huai took everything in, and then glanced at the boots on the table. He sighed, waved away Lu Tao, walked to Zhong Ruolan, and squatted down to look at her:
"Your Majesty, it is not proper for a servant of my status to hold these shoes. I appreciate your kindness. In fact, I have always been grateful for your kindness in sending me medicine when I was down and out. How about this, I will give you another good thing today."
This made Zhong Ruolan forget her anger temporarily. She turned around and asked curiously, "What's interesting?"
Chen Huai nodded:
"Yes, but you have to promise me this time that you won't show it off like you did with that poem. Even if someone asks about it, you can't say that I did it for you. Do you understand?"
Zhong Ruolan was a simple-minded person, and her curiosity was aroused at this moment. She pretended to be disdainful:
"You are bragging, as if this is a precious treasure that all the women in the harem would come to grab. If you have the ability, show me, don't pretend."
Chen Huai blinked mysteriously: "I guarantee that the queen will like it."
About half an hour later, Zhong Ruolan looked at the nails on her ten fingers with joy and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"So beautiful, I've never seen nails like this before"
The colors are rich and sparkling. It turns out that such an effect can be achieved by mixing a few flower juices and some paint. Zhong Ruolan smiled like a child:
"How do you know everything? Flower ornaments and this nail plate? No wonder you told me not to show off. If the women in the harem see it, you won't be able to leave the harem today."
Chen Huai was also puzzled. In the past, he wanted to go to the harem whenever he had nothing to do, and it even became his motivation to stay in the palace. But now, he no longer had that mentality.
"Your Majesty, I will teach you how to make the nail plate. I have something else to do, so I will take my leave now."
