Chapter 18

The bird's nest that Fusheng sent out to the government to check had the result within two days, but this result was really beyond Wen Zhiru's expectations.

"You said that the bowl of bird's nest is of the highest quality, and it didn't contain any harmful herbs?"

"Yes, I asked the doctor in the best medical center in the capital, and the doctor also said that nourishing yin and nourishing qi, nourishing blood and nourishing health are the best."

"This really doesn't look like her!" Wen Zhiru muttered to himself, puzzled.

On weekdays, the Qian family would even skimp on the aunts and ladies who are not valued in the mansion, so how could they generously give away such precious products as bird's nests to others.

"Miss, what do you mean it doesn't look like it?" Fu Sheng asked puzzledly, "Miss, you want to check the bird's nest given by Madam, do you suspect that Madam is going to—"

"Damn girl, why are you chewing on your tongue! I don't want you anymore?" Fu Sheng was on the verge of speaking, when she was caught by Nanny Liu who entered the room, and she sternly reprimanded, "It's just that the girl is too spoiled by you on weekdays. , Talking is getting more and more careless, turn around and tell Madam, take care of your muscles and bones!"

Grandma Liu has always been hard-spoken and soft-hearted. She used to be quite strict with the little maids, but now she is more kind-hearted when she gets older, so her words of reprimand have no effect at all in Fu Sheng's ears. she just

Sticking out her tongue mischievously, she hid from Wen Zhiru's side.

Grandma Liu was so angry that the wrinkles on her forehead deepened, she turned her head to persuade Wen Zhiru: "I said girl, you must not indulge these little girls like this anymore, how can you be like a current person?" Son? It is rumored that the Wen Mansion is such an unruly place, how can this be good!"

Looking at these two people, Wen Zhiru just thought it was a little funny, but Fu Sheng's words just now were indeed a bit inappropriate. Although there was no outsider in the room at the moment, if someone listened to it, she didn't know what to say. What a disturbance.

"Don't be angry, mammy, the little girl is young and ignorant, don't be as knowledgeable as them, mammy, I will talk about them in the future."

"Ah~" Liu Mama sighed helplessly, "Girl, you are so easy to talk, and the girls are becoming more and more indifferent."

Seeing that Wen Zhiru didn't mean to help Madam Liu teach her a lesson, Fu Sheng became a little bolder, "Mama, it's because Miss loves us, so we don't put on airs, and we also treat Miss well, so what's the matter?" What did you say!"

"Fu Sheng!" Wen Zhiru shook his head, "Don't stay with Fu Cui for a long time and learn her bad habits. You can't hide something on your mind. It's true that the mother taught you, some words are considered bad I can't tell or ask in my stomach, and I will naturally not hide from you what I should know. You have a calmer temper than Fu Cui, and there are still many things I want to send you to do in the future."

Fu Sheng nodded straightly upon hearing this.

"Miss, you are biased! What can you tell Fu Sheng but not the maidservant?" Fu Cui complained while carrying a box of snacks into the room at this time.

The past few days have been cloudy and rainy, and the weather has not been so hot. Wen Zhiru's appetite has improved a lot. He felt a little hungry just now, so he asked Fu Cui to go to the big kitchen to see what snacks he made today.It took more than half an hour to go.

Wen Zhiru watched Fu Cui put several plates of dim sum on the table one by one, grabbed a piece of rose pastry and took a bite, and asked, "Why have you been here for so long?"

"It wasn't that long ago, but today I heard that a few days ago, officials from the south of the Yangtze River offered a kind of dim sum. The emperor and the queen mother liked it, so they ordered the imperial dining room to learn how to make it. Today, the master is going to court At that time, the emperor specially gave them a lot. When the slaves passed by, the snacks had just been delivered to the mansion, so I waited for a while, thinking of bringing some over for the young lady to try."

As Fu Cui said, she handed a plate of shortbread that looked similar to ordinary shortbread to Wen Zhiru. If you don’t like sweets, this is the most suitable.”

"Really?" Wen Zhiru picked up a piece and took a bite.

Salty and crispy, it's really good.Desserts, as expected, are still salty and more to his liking.

Seeing that Wen Zhiru was satisfied with the food, Fu Cui continued, "Miss, I heard some great news in the kitchen just now!"

"En." Wen Zhiru was busy eating, but nodded to let her continue.

"There have been several heavy rains in the past few days, which relieved the drought in several neighboring states and provinces. I heard that the emperor was very happy, so he rewarded dozens of palace lanterns, saying that they would be placed on the river bank on the day of the Qiqiao Festival. The emperor also knew about the birthday banquet of Princess Chao'an, and it seemed that he was going to celebrate it, and let's see how the princes and girls of the aristocratic families in the capital are having fun on weekdays."

"so what?"

"So, Miss, you really don't want to go to the Qiqiao Festival Cruise River? There is also the princess's birthday banquet. I heard that Aunt Gui and Fourth Miss have been going to the Da Furen's courtyard every day for this matter! Then But your majesty! Aren’t you curious about what the emperor looks like? Is he particularly mighty and domineering, like a dragon.”

"Dragon? Even if it's a real dragon emperor, it's impossible to grow horns and claws, right? It's just a human." Wen Zhiru expressed helplessness to Fu Cui's imagination, and tried to draw the picture of Jin Junyu in his mind. Looks like this, but he had never seen this person in his previous life.

However, Aunt Gui and Wen Xie frequently entered and exited Qian's courtyard...

I'm afraid it won't be as simple as just for the princess's birthday banquet!

There was only one post in Qian's hand, and even if Aunt Gui said to break the sky, she would not be able to give up her daughter's position to Wen Yu, let alone the emperor was here this time.

Jin Junyu, the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, is twenty-four years old this year, and he only has the eldest prince and two princesses born to the former empress under his knees.

The former empress unfortunately died in childbirth when she was giving birth to the eldest prince, and Jin Junyu has not made another empress so far. In the harem, only concubines Xian and Concubine Shu are quite important, and the rest are just a few insignificant talents.

In this case, even if those ministers who do good deeds do not write to request the emperor to be re-established, they will at least ask the emperor to draft a concubine on the grounds of extending the royal heir.

Concubine Shu is the daughter of the Empress Dowager's younger sister and the niece of a direct relative, while Concubine Xian is the eldest daughter of Prince Xian. China's 30 soldiers and horses should not be underestimated.

If the emperor wanted to balance the situation between the former dynasty and the rear palace, it would not be too much to choose a daughter of the chief minister's family as a concubine.

In the past few years, there have been natural disasters in the Dajin Dynasty, and the treasury is not rich. The emperor will not spend a lot of time on drafting. I am really annoyed by those pedantic old officials, but I just choose a few women from aristocratic families with little character, appearance, and family background. enter the palace.

At the princess's birthday banquet, if she is lucky enough to catch the emperor's eyes, she will be promoted to the palace in the future.

He, Wen Zhiru, could understand such a simple truth, even if Qian didn't understand it, but her elder brother who was a fifth-rank doctor would remind her behind her back.

Under such circumstances, Aunt Gui went to look for Mrs. Qian, so she could only say that the two of them must be planning something else.

Whether it's choosing a concubine or the princess's birthday, at present, he is still a legitimate daughter of the Wen family, and he is also the biggest obstacle in Qian's eyes. He has to guard against it!

Thinking so, Wen Zhiru stood up, went to the dressing table and took out a pair of pure gold butterfly-shaped earrings and handed them to Fu Sheng, "Find a chance and give these to Yue Ling, the big maid next to Madam, don't let them If someone sees it, you don’t have to go there yourself, and you don’t need to say anything, she will understand.”

Yueling is the newly promoted maidservant of the Qian family since Yueyao was kicked out of the mansion by Wen Yanfeng. She used to be a second-class maidservant in her courtyard.

It is reasonable to say that servants who have been promoted by the master should serve the master more loyally, but this month Ling is different.

Yue Ling was born in the family, and grew up in the Wen residence since he was a child, a few years older than Wen Zhiru.Her mother used to be a cook in Wen's mansion, and when she was old, she married a small steward in the backyard.The little steward didn't treat her mother well, and often punched and kicked her.That year, she was pregnant with Yueling, who was eight months pregnant, and was kicked by the steward almost to death because of one or two quarrels.

At that time, Wen Zhiru's mother, Shen Shi, had just married into Wen's residence not long ago. It was because of her kindness that she asked a doctor to save Yueling's mother and daughter. Drive out of Wenfu.

A few years ago, Yueling's mother passed away, and before she died, she never forgot to ask Yueling to remember Shen's kindness, and never help Qian to embarrass the third miss.

These things were all before Qian's entry into Wen's residence. Of course, Qian would not know about it, and she had heard Liu Mama mention it by accident.And that pair of gold earrings was given to Yue Ling's mother by the Shen family. After Yue Ling's mother died, Yue Ling quietly sent the pair of earrings to Wen Zhiru and told him that she was willing to help him.

In her previous life, Yueyao, the big maid, had always done well, so Yueling naturally had no chance, not to mention that Wen Zhiru didn't have the heart to calculate others in the past. Unexpectedly, as soon as Yueyao came out of the house, the Qian family really promoted Yueling to around.

After receiving the earrings, Yue Ling chose to meet Wen Zhiru quietly in the dead of night.

She just followed Qian's side, and Qian didn't really trust her. Every time Aunt Gui went, Qian always sent Yue Ling away, but several times before and after, Yue Ling still noticed something strange.

On the seventh day of July, cruise the river.The plan Qian and Gui planned must be related to this day. Although the specific content is not clear, the purpose of Qian's doing this is nothing more than to prevent Wen Zhiru from going to the residence of Princess Shu Ning, so as not to hinder It was a good opportunity for her daughter to become a concubine, and Aunt Gui's enthusiastic support was naturally to give her daughter a chance to go to the princess's birthday banquet.

That being the case, on the night of the seventh day of the seventh day, he just found a reason not to go for a cruise on the river?Anyway, he never thought of spending time with that group of women who are planning...
