Chapter 86 Nala's Visit

Concubine Liang knew that Wanning had to go to Zhongcui Palace to meet Concubine Hui first, but she didn't want her to stay there longer than expected. Let go.When Yinhu was born, she was still an unknown concubine, and the child was carried to Concubine Hui after birth, and she had never even seen the child's face.It was also later that Concubine Hui saw that she was really pitiful, and occasionally she would ask Nanny Xiao to take her to visit Yinhu secretly, but Concubine Liang had never seen Yinhu in her infancy.

"Little elder brother looks so good." Concubine Liang took off the armor on her little finger, and carefully touched the child's face.

"People who have met say that he looks exactly like Grandpa." Wanning smiled slightly, "This child is also obedient, he doesn't like to cry, but he is a little shy, even the nurse who usually takes care of him has to struggle a lot to hug him. No Thinking about being close to the empress, thinking about it, I also know that the empress is his real grandmother."

"I was born like you, as well-behaved and sensible." Concubine Liang rejoiced in her heart, "I heard from Nanny Zhang that those women in Yinhu's mansion are starting to be restless again?"

"Isn't it common for women to be jealous? It's just a small fight." After Wanning gave birth, Madam Zhang came back to Concubine Liang, and naturally brought Concubine Liang news from Yinhu's mansion.Wanning smiled and said, "I will also watch, so don't let them make too much trouble."

"Both of them are worry-free." Concubine Liang shook her head, "Concubine Hui left you in Zhongcui Palace just now, but what did you say to you?"

Wanning thought about it for a while, Concubine Hui intended to point Yinhu to Fujin, and she must have crossed the bright road with Concubine Liang, so she said: "Concubine Hui said that there are few female relatives in the master's mansion, and there are not many children under her knees. The master pointed out that he was kind, so I left my concubine to ask for my opinion. However, although the concubine is the master's side Fujin, the selection of the show has always been decided by the queen mother, the emperor and the ladies. It is not the turn of the concubine to dictate, so My concubine never answered."

"That's true." Concubine Liang nodded, "Concubine Hui also mentioned it to me before, but she just wanted to say that Yinhu doesn't have many children, so where should Prince Yong be? I heard that there is a girl of the right age in Nala's family , are you going to participate in the draft next year?"

"That's right," Wanning replied with a smile when she saw the presence of the old concubine Liang, "I heard that the girl just turned fifteen this year, and it's the time when she's green and juicy."

"No wonder Concubine Hui's sister-in-law came to the palace to greet her again and again. She must have wanted to ask Concubine Hui to show her a good future." Concubine Liang took a sip of tea. , from a first-rank official, the girl of his family is enough to be the prince's elder brother's concubine Fujin right now."

The implication is that she disapproves of the girl from the Nala family entering the mansion.

Wan Ning is not broken, there is no impenetrable wall in this world, if you say something wrong and damage the girl's reputation, it may be self-defeating.

"There is still a whole year until next year's big election, and Concubine Hui is thinking too far, so don't worry about this matter." Concubine Liang said.This is also to give Wanning peace of mind, after all she is Yinhu's biological mother, and if Concubine Hui wants to intervene in the affairs of Yinhu's mansion, she will always hear from Concubine Liang when she finds out.If Concubine Liang disagrees, even if Concubine Hui goes to Kangxi to talk, it may not be possible to get things done.

After coming out of the palace, before Wanning could take a sip of tea, Nanny Guan reported back and forth, saying that Prince Fujin was visiting and that she was accompanied by a little girl.Wan Ning frowned slightly, she had never had any friendship with Zhang Jiashi, and she had less contact with Wu Yashi because of some previous incidents, why did Zhang Jiashi come here this time, and who was that little girl ah?But since she has already come, Wanning can't miss her.

Sister Guan was asked to entertain Zhang Jiashi to the flower hall first, Wanning freshened up a bit, changed into a moon-white flag dress, took off the cumbersome headdress, and walked to the flower hall with Amber and Magnolia.As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw Zhang Jiashi sitting on his seat, standing half a step behind him was a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing a bright red dress with a pattern of white butterflies, and the younger couple had a hairpin on their hair. The golden begonia is like a pearl flower, with bright eyes and white teeth, willow eyebrows and almond eyes, one can tell at a glance that she is a girl from a wealthy family.

After some greetings, Wanning sat down and said with a smile, "I haven't seen my sister-in-law for quite a while since the day when my little elder brother was full moon."

"My lord asked me to take Wang's little elder brother to my side to raise." Zhang Jia smiled complacently, and she still remembered Wang's crying face clearly, "You know, The little elder brother who is only a few months old cannot be separated from others, so I have been busy taking care of the child during this time, and I don’t go out very often.”

"So that's how it is." No wonder she looks radiant now, Wanning smiled and glanced at the girl standing behind Zhang Jiashi, seeing that she was still so gentle, she was not in the slightest because Wanning and Zhang Jiashi snubbed her The impatient performance must be due to the strict family education.

"I haven't gone out for a long time, and I don't know who this girl is. She is so handsome." Wanning asked.

"This is a girl from the Nala family. She is our grandfather's cousin. Since she will be participating in the draft next year, her mother-in-law has been feeling unwell recently, so she asked me to take her out for a walk." Zhang Jiashi spoke openly, as if just Simply bringing her relatives out to ask her to recognize someone, if she hadn't spoken to Concubine Hui and Concubine Liang early this morning, Wanning probably would have believed it.

Nala's appearance was green and juicy, and the appearance of smiling before saying a word made people feel good. After receiving Zhang Jia's eyes, she took half a step forward, and Fushen said, "Greetings to Fujin."

"Get up." Wanning hurriedly raised her hand to signal, and asked her to go forward, took her hand and looked at it a few times, "You really look good, and I feel more and more old when I look at it." She took off her wrist Coral tortoiseshell and turquoise bracelets for Nalashi, "How old are you?"

"It's fifteen this year." Nalashi glanced at the bracelet on his wrist, "Ce Fujin looks young, just like my older sister."

"This little mouth is so sweet." Although Wanning said this with a smile, the humor did not reach her eyes.With Nalashi standing in front of him, Zhang Jiashi didn't notice it either.

"Before I go out, my mother asked me to bring some gifts." After Nalashi said, the maid behind her sent a few brocade boxes knowingly and interestingly, "This is for Fujin, I heard that Fujin's body is always It’s not cool, so here are a few bottles of health-care pills; this is for Jian Fujin, and the rest is for everyone in the mansion, please ask Fang Fujin to help distribute. In addition, there are some pens, ink, paper and inkstones and some gadgets , It’s for Eldest Brother and Second Elder Brother; these two models of Western ships were obtained by my Ama in the south, and they are not expensive things, I want them to be played by Big Gege and Er Gege.”

"You have a heart." Wanning nodded and asked Hu Po and Yulan to accept the things, and then ordered Hu Po to prepare a gift in return, including two pieces of Hangzhou silk with carmine embroidered with peonies and flowers, a pair of gold croissants, and a pair of silver berries And put on a pair of exquisite camellia pearl hairpins, wrap them neatly. "I feel happy when I look at you. I wish I had a daughter who is as sensible as you."

"Thanks to Fujin's liking." Although Nalashi was young, although she was still gentle and pleasant, Wanning still saw a trace of displeasure flashing across her face. It was obvious that it was not just a simple visit.I don't know what the Nala family thinks. A good girl is more than enough to be a Fujin for the royal family. Er Niang also asked me to ask, how is Di Fujin's body?"

Nala's Emiang and Guo Luoluo's Ama are distant cousins, so it's not out of the question to ask.Wanning picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, secretly stared at Nalashi's face carefully, and then said: "It's still the same, the imperial doctor said that you can only rest in rest, you can't see people or blow the wind, and you can't fluctuate too much. Be extra careful, otherwise it is easy to make the condition worse.”

Nalashi nodded and wanted to ask again, but Zhang Jiashi who was behind her coughed twice and interrupted her.Seeing Nalashi biting her lower lip, Wanning shut her mouth unwillingly.

"It's getting late, the eighth brother should also go to Yamen, and our father should go back to the mansion, so I won't bother you." Zhang Jia stood up and said, "I still have to send her back to Nala Mansion in one piece. Go back first."

"Sister-in-law, go slowly." Wanning walked all the way to the entrance of the flower hall, and asked Guan Nai and Hu Po to send them to the door together, and then asked Yulan to take out the meeting gift from Nalashi.She doesn't touch anything given to Guo Luoluo, and leaves it to Yinhu to deal with; what she gives to herself is a box of unpolished gemstones and a set of pearl and emerald jade heads, and there is also a small box containing a dozen or so rare gemstones. The black pearls are very valuable at a glance.That's all, the meeting gifts for Qi Jia, Lang, and Borzigit were all top-notch gold-studded ruby ​​heads, and such a big gesture didn't seem to be just for the position of Fujin.

"What are you thinking, master? You're so preoccupied?" Hu Po sent Zhang Jiashi and Nalashi back, and saw Wanning holding a black pearl in a daze, so she smiled, "This Nala family's Gege is really a shot." Rich, I heard that this black pearl is rare, and it is not common in the palace."

"Isn't it? It's because it's so rare that I don't know what the little girl is thinking." Wanning put the pearls in her hand back into the box, "I didn't just ask you to give them away, why did it take so long? time?"

"Originally it was just delivered to the door, but I didn't want to go out to see someone from the prince's mansion just now, saying that the little elder brother suddenly had a fever, so I asked Fujin to go back quickly." Hu Po said, "Fujin had to ask someone to inform Nala's family to send a carriage to pick him up." , and quickly got into the carriage and rushed to the palace. The maidservants couldn’t let Gege of Nala’s family wait at the door alone, so they led her to the Baosha next to the second gate, and talked with her there.”

"You did a good job." Wanning nodded, "Did she ask anything?"

"Although Ge Ge of Nala's family looks honest and stable, she is only a 15-year-old girl. Without Prince Fujin watching, she naturally asked around the bush." ​​Hu Po took out a delicate purse from her sleeve and put it in Wan Ning. In front of me, "I first asked about the preferences of the county prince, then asked about Fujin's body, and also asked about the reading status of the two elder brothers, but I was prevaricated by the servants. This is a reward from Nalagege."

Wanning picked it up and weighed it, and felt that there seemed to be a bracelet and two silver beads inside, and the value would not be much different.With Nala's appearance like this, it doesn't seem like he just wants to be Yinhu's side Fujin.It's to win over the women in the mansion, and to ask about the two children's studies, so there must be something ulterior motives.

"Since it's for you, you can accept it as your own private house." Wanning said, "The younger brother of the Zhiqin Wang's family is sick, go and gather some mild medicinal herbs and send them to the Zhiqin Wang's residence. "

"Yes."
