Chapter 18 The second girl of the Zhen family is here
In the Beijing Prince's Mansion, you can stroll along the stone road at the foot of the stairs. Green willows hang down on both sides, and the mountains and rocks are dotted. Everywhere is exquisite and clear, and it is extremely beautiful.
After walking around a hanging flower door, Yingluo came towards her. When she saw Shui Rong, she ran over happily and said happily, "My lord, you are finally back."
Looking at the girl's cheerful expression, Shui Rong was infected by it, and his mood suddenly became cheerful. This girl was so anxious after being away for a while, she was really clingy.
Yingluo looked at Shui Rong with hooked eyes, Qiong's nose wrinkled slightly, she couldn't help but come forward to smell it, suddenly her expression was shocked, she turned her head and scolded Xiao Fuzi: "You bastard, you dare to take the prince to eat flower wine , I’ll peel off your skin.”
Xiao Fuzi looked aggrieved. It was not him who brought the prince to drink flower wine. He had also advised him. However, Shui Rong was the master and he was just a slave. How could he dare to disobey...
Shui Rong looked at Yingluo with a slightly surprised expression. How did she know that she had eaten flower wine?
"Why are you having wine with flowers? Why don't you go out to a restaurant to have wine?"
When eating flower wine or something, try not to talk too much to avoid trouble.
Yingluo looked suspicious when she heard this. She obviously didn't believe it. She pursed her lips and said, "Then why does the prince have the fragrance of his daughter?"
It smells of wine and women's powder. What else could it be but flower wine? Do you really think she is easy to coax? Shui Rong raised his eyebrows when he heard this. During the trip to the brothel, he and Du Yuejiao didn't get close, but they were in the same room. It was inevitable that they would be smelled of rouge, but it was very light and generally difficult to detect, and it was water-soluble. After leaving the brothel, we wandered around the market for a while. Just like that, Yingluo could still smell it. This little hoof and nose are really smart, she must be a dog! ! !
Seeing Shui Rong's expression change slightly, Yingluo thought it was because of her own troubles that made Shui Rong unhappy, so she hurriedly explained: "My lord, please don't blame me for talking too much. The women in Yanhualiu Lane are not clean. You have a distinguished status and cannot be careless."
Even if Shui Xiong had needs, wouldn't Miss Qin be there? If Miss Qin couldn't do it, wouldn't she still have herself? Why bother looking for flowers and willows?
Shui Rong frowned slightly when he heard the words, but he didn't blame Yingluo. In this era, no matter how self-respecting a prostitute is, she has a low status. Even low-level maids will look down on her. This is the general environment of class hierarchy.
"I went to the rouge shop and bought some rouge gouache." Shui Xiong explained casually. It's normal to wear some rouge fragrance when you go to the rouge shop.
Yingluo looked suspicious and looked at the wrapped things in Xiao Fuzi's hand. It clearly said Ruyifang, and then she felt relieved. If the prince went to eat flower wine, the concubine would be the one to blame.
When Shui Rong saw this, he immediately felt funny. He reached out and hit Yingluo's forehead with a folding fan, and scolded Yingluo with a smile: "Damn little hoof, even if I go to have flower wine, you are still in charge, but you go instead."
It was obviously against the rules for a slave to take care of her master's affairs. She couldn't care less about eating flowers and wine, or even sleeping in a brothel.
Yingluo covered her forehead in pain, her smart apricot eyes filled with mist. She didn't dare to interfere in her master's affairs. She was worried. She really didn't understand good people.
"Your Majesty bought the rouge for Miss Qin?" Yingluo asked crisply, her eyes staring straight at the thing in Xiao Fuzi's hand.
It looks like there are three copies. Could it be hers?
Seeing Yingluo's hopeful face, Shui Rong raised the corners of her mouth slightly and responded, "Yes, it's all for Ke Qing."
Yingluo looked disappointed when she heard this, her little mouth tightened unconsciously. In vain of her dedicated care, Miss Qin suddenly came and left her behind! ! ! Shui Rong smiled "haha" when he saw this. Ever since they rubbed their ears and temples together, Yingluo's hooves have become more and more clingy, like a cat, hoping to get more love.
"Okay, stop teasing me. This is for you." Seeing that Yingluo was so aggrieved, Shui Rong stopped teasing her. Everyone in her daughter's family wanted to be coaxed, so Shui Rong took a box of lipstick from Xiao Fuzi's hand and handed it to her. With Yingluo.
Yingluo stared blankly at the lipstick box in front of her, her eyes full of excitement. Originally, she just had hopes in her heart. Even if she didn't, it was normal. After all, she was just a maid. She didn't expect that Shui Rong would always remember her.
"What, do you think it's a bargain?" Shui Rong saw Yingluo standing there blankly, and couldn't help but joke. The palace has people who specialize in making rouge gouache, which is no worse than the rouge shop. Moreover, the rouge outside is not necessarily clean and the color is thin. "No way, the prince gave it to me. It's better than any other rouge." Yingluo reached out and grabbed the rouge box, her face filled with a happy smile.
"Your Highness likes the scent of jasmine?" Yingluo leaned forward and looked at Shui Rong with her lively eyes. If Shui Rong liked the scent of jasmine, then she would only wear jasmine scented rouge and gouache in the future.
Hearing this, Shui Rong raised the corner of his mouth slightly and joked: "Jasmine is fresh and beautiful, which complements you perfectly."
Jasmine is fragrant, fresh and beautiful. Jasmine can also be made into scented tea for drinking. It has a wide range of uses and is suitable for jewelry.
"Your Highness." Yingluo didn't even need rouge and gouache, her jade face was already covered with a light rouge.
The prince was praising her. As expected, she was loved by the prince.
Shui Rong looked at the shy and timid Yingluo with gentle eyes. He was satisfied with the caring person in front of him with a casual word of concern. He was the only one in his heart, but Shui Rong knew this, but Yingluo was not the only one around him.
"Okay, if you want to have a good time back home, let me serve you and change your clothes first." Shui Rong gave the order politely. Since we are all our own people from now on, we should serve and change our clothes first and eliminate the traces on our bodies, and then go to Ning'an Hall to pay respects to the concubine.
"Yes, I understand." Yingluo responded with a shrug, her cheeks showing a slight dimple. Not to mention just serving to change clothes, she was also willing to do that.
Shui Rong smiled and said nothing, and walked towards the back room.
"Oh, by the way, Your Majesty, the second girl of the Zhen family is here. Why don't you go and take a look at the concubine's place?" Just after taking two steps, Yingluo came back to her senses and hurriedly reminded her.
Shui Rong stopped when he heard the words and looked back at Yingluo, "Second girl of the Zhen family?" If the emperor is not planning to grant a marriage, what is she here to do? "But you're here to visit your mother?" Shui Rong asked.
Yingluo shook her head, moved closer, and whispered: "Your Majesty, I heard that the old concubine in the palace left the second girl in the capital, saying that she would find a husband for her, but the wife of the Zhen family is in a hurry to return to Jinling. It’s not easy to arrange things in the palace, so we plan to let the second girl live in our palace for a while. The concubine agreed to this matter and will waive all the daily expenses."
Shui Rong was stunned when he heard this. Will he stay in the palace temporarily?I'm afraid it has another purpose. This is like the Xue family moving into Jia's house in the original novel. It's called a temporary stay, but it's actually to bring together a good match.
Thinking of this, Shui Rong felt a headache. Concubine Beijing should understand such a poor excuse, but she still agreed to it. She was afraid that she was very fond of Zhen Hua. As long as Shui Rong relented, even if the emperor granted the marriage, Princess Beijing's palace and The old concubine's kindness will most likely lead to good things. After all, the emperor gave Shuirong and Zhen Hua a marriage without any decree. This was also a gift of marriage.
However, Shui Rong really didn't want to get involved with the pig teammates of the Zhen family. "How do you know this?" Shui Rong looked at Yingluo and asked curiously. As a maid, she shouldn't know so clearly.
Yingluo smiled proudly and said arrogantly: "I naturally have a way."
Although Yingluo is a person close to Shui Rong, she was originally a concubine of Beijing, and the maids around her are all related to Yingluo. It is not surprising to find out this.
After groaning, Shui Rong didn't think too much. Once it came, he would make peace with it. With the emperor's token of marriage, the initiative was always in his hands.
"I know." Shui Rong waved his hand and said, immediately ignoring it and walking towards the house. The second girl of the Zhen family came as soon as she came, so she wouldn't lick her face and get close to her.
Yingluo pursed her lips when she saw this. They are all maids who have the ability to observe what is happening and what the Zhen family wants. She is very concerned. If the mistress is jealous, she will not be in a good situation. And the second girl of the Zhen family is friendly and kind. If she becomes the mistress, it will be a good thing for her.
It’s just that this matter still needs to be approved by her father. If he doesn’t like it, Yingluo will naturally follow her husband. Thinking of this, Yingluo doesn’t think too much and follows her. She still has to serve her father! ! ! !
