Chapter 18 Big Golden Turtle
Yongtai was dumbfounded, and even Zhang Sicheng, who had not left yet, couldn't help but glance at Yan Shixu.
Your Highness, why not give me something else, a turtle?
Yan Shixu naturally couldn't explain to them, so he turned and left.
The two of them hurriedly followed.
Wen Li'er returned to Yaohua Palace without any obstruction.
As she expected, no one noticed that she had gone out.
When Wen Li'er took off her outer clothes, she realized that she had put the prince's cloak back on.
She carefully folded the cloak at the head of the bed, planned to wash it tomorrow, and then return it to the prince when he summoned her to sleep with him next time.
Wen Li'er went to the bathroom connected to the bedroom, washed her face and mouth, and then returned to the bedroom to sleep.
The next day.
Although Wen Li'er went to bed late last night, she had developed a good habit of waking up automatically when it was time to pay her respects.
It's so boring to repeat the same life every day.
When Wen Li'er brought Qingzhu back from paying respects in Fuyao Palace, she saw the expressions of Nanny Qin and Qingmei, which were hard to describe.
It seemed like happiness, confusion, and a hint of excitement.
Wen Li'er was puzzled: "What are you two doing?"
Nanny Qin replied, "Master, you will know once you go in and take a look."
Wen Li'er walked into the inner hall in confusion, but unexpectedly, she was almost blinded by a golden turtle.
"Where did this come from?"
Nanny Qin laughed: "Where else could the master have obtained such a precious thing? Of course it was a reward from His Highness."
After she finished speaking, she became a little puzzled: "Why would His Highness suddenly give the master such a big golden tortoise?"
Wen Li'er recalled what she had said to the prince last night.
She said that if she were Concubine Xue, she would hide in a side hall from the beginning, like a coward, so that no one would remember her, and then live a peaceful life.
I didn't expect that His Highness would give her a big turtle so quickly.
However, this turtle is not afraid at all, and even has a heroic and imposing aura, a little arrogant, and a little cute.
It's just... a little too big.
The East Hall where she lived suddenly felt much smaller when such a big thing squeezed in.
If this were melted into gold, how much would it be worth?
But Wen Li'er is too brave to do anything. Even though the golden tortoise is stamped with the official seal, no one outside may accept it.
She looked around and directed Qingzhu and Qingmei to move a vase from the corner of the hall to the warehouse, and then left the golden tortoise there.
Because of the existence of this turtle, the hall suddenly became much more valuable.
When moving the golden beetle, Wen Li'er and others discovered that the big golden beetle was hollow.
The turtle shell can be opened, and when in danger, you can really hide inside.
Wen Li'er was embarrassed. Your Highness was being too serious.
Now that you have storage space, you might as well use it.
Wen Li'er immediately took out her treasure chest and hid the entire box inside the golden turtle.
…
The Yaohua Palace is so small that everyone will know about any disturbance.
Yang Xishan, who lived in the main hall, was so furious.
"ah!!!!!!"
She raised her hand and destroyed a set of cups on the coffee table, cursing "bitch" several times.
Nanny Zhou stepped forward and tried to persuade her to be calm.
As a result, Yang Xishan slapped her in the face without saying a word.
"Get lost! Useless old thing!"
The other palace maids lowered their heads, pretending they saw and heard nothing.
Nanny Zhou's face turned alternately pale and blue, and she was filled with hatred.
Zhou Xiuhe has been in the palace for so many years and has served countless masters.
Even the queen had never spoken to her so harshly.
When they were first sent to the Eastern Palace, the other two maids were chosen by the master.
And because she had served the queen, she was given the honor of being the master chosen by her.
At that time, she thought Yang Xishan had the best family background and was most likely to provide assistance to the prince.
She is so old and confused that she actually chose such a person.
If you stay any longer, you'll probably lose your life.
Nanny Zhou lowered her head and quietly left the hall.
She thought to herself, it seems that I have to go find the old sisters in Fengxiang Palace and ask them for help to find her a new job.
And inside the Fuyao Palace.
Nanny Zhuang was also a little annoyed. She was worried about the Crown Princess.
Wen Fengyi looks soft, has no temper, and is well-behaved and honest.
As it turned out, you can't judge a person by his appearance. Not long after she recovered from her illness, she won the prince's heart.
This turtle is a sign of good fortune, and it is a golden turtle - very precious.
Is it possible that Wen Li'er, a mere concubine, is more valuable than the Crown Princess?
If the Crown Prince wants to give it as a gift, it should be given to the Crown Princess.
Xie Zhenrong was already a little irritable, and hearing the nanny complaining, she became even more irritable and a little annoyed.
Just now, Luo Zhao, the eunuch in her palace, found out.
Last night, Wen Fengyi accompanied the prince to the Wangxing Tower to watch the meteor shower.
She was the Crown Princess, and the Crown Prince went to see the meteor shower without informing her, and turned around and took Fengyi with him to watch!
Besides, where can you watch a meteor shower?
Just last night, there was a fire in the side hall!
Xie Zhenrong became angrier and angrier as she thought about it, so she took the palace maids to see the Queen Mother.
Inside the Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother was trimming a pot of marigolds.
I was quite surprised to see Xie Zhenrong coming alone.
"What's the urgent matter, Princess?"
The Crown Princess went on and on about the Crown Prince watching the meteor shower last night, then added a sentence: Wen Fengyi didn't even bother to drag His Highness along and joined in the nonsense!
Now this side hall is on fire.
After hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled and said, "There's no need to worry about such a small matter."
"Royal grandmother?"
Xie Zhenrong was puzzled. "How can this be a small matter? Meteor showers are unlucky. The prince just saw it, and bad luck has come. My grandson's wife is worried that something bad will happen in the future."
The Queen Mother shook her head helplessly.
This granddaughter-in-law is clever, but she has not experienced enough and her mentality is not stable enough.
She put down the scissors in her hand and asked Xie Zhenrong seriously.
"What do you think of my life, Princess? Is it good or bad?"
Xie Zhenrong replied, "The Imperial Grandmother's life was naturally excellent."
The Queen Mother nodded and picked up the scissors again.
"Then you don't have to worry. I've seen six meteor showers, including last night."
Xie Zhenrong was dumbfounded.
The Queen Mother did not lie.
She was only a few years old when she first saw a meteor shower.
The mansion was in chaos at the time, but her father was the only one who was not afraid.
Her father held her in his arms as they watched the meteor shower, explaining to her that it was just a common astronomical phenomenon and there was nothing to be afraid of.
She didn't understand at the time, she just thought the sky full of stars with tails was beautiful.
She never missed him when they met again later.
She has been at the pinnacle of wealth and power throughout her life, so how could she talk about misfortune?
The same was true of his father, who lived a glorious life and died of old age.
