"She is your majesty's favorite concubine and has your majesty's support. There is no need for her to come to me." Ning Wanyin looked gloomy.
Tang Miaoling is my cousin by blood, so that’s fine.
She doesn't want to bother with outsiders.
"Cousin, maybe she thinks the same as I do, that the emperor is unreliable!" Tang Miaoling's mind is quite active sometimes.
Ning Wanyin naturally knew that after experiencing such a great change, Wei Yingya had seen clearly the emperor's indifference and cruelty, so it was normal for her to feel that the emperor was unreliable.
but……
The fewer people there are, the less risk there is.
She is not the only choice in the palace. Wei Yingya can also join the Xue family.
Ning Wanyin had no intention of forming an alliance with her.
"I really have to go to Changchun Palace, cousin, please go back." Ning Wanyin looked at her and said.
Tang Miaoling suddenly stood up and said, "Okay, cousin, you go ahead!"
…
It's June now.
All the concubines in the harem became busy.
Because the ninth day of June is the Wanshou Festival.
"Master, you put a lot of thought into making this sachet. His Majesty will definitely like it." Lian Rui said with a smile.
"It is my duty to serve Your Majesty wholeheartedly." Ning Wanyin looked at the sachet in her palm and carefully embroidered the last stitch.
It is made of the soft jade brocade bestowed by the emperor, and embroidered with lotus leaf patterns by Ning Wanyin herself.
Needlework is a basic skill for a lady from an aristocratic family. Although her embroidery skills are not stunning, they are exquisite and beautiful.
In addition, Ning Wanyin also invited two imperial doctors to prepare a spice recipe.
The main ingredient is lotus, supplemented by several kinds of fragrant herbs.
The lotus flowers are taken from the lotus pond in Lingxue Pavilion.
Now is the season for flowers to bloom.
Lian Rui brought dried lotus petals and herbs and presented them to Ning Wanyin.
Ning Wanyin put the flower petals and herbs into the sachet.
He also took out a amulet from his purse and put it in.
This is the amulet she asked for when the palace invited a monk from Bifeng Temple to perform a blessing ritual a few days ago.
Bifeng Temple is the most popular temple in the capital and is said to be very effective.
It is difficult to obtain a talisman, so you must ask for it with sincerity.
Fortunately, Ning Wanyin has received many rewards since entering the palace, and her family is wealthy and sincere.
"Master, this amulet was obtained for His Majesty?" Lian Rui asked in surprise.
Ning Wanyin nodded slightly.
"The master is deeply in love with Your Majesty, Your Majesty will definitely be touched!" Lian Rui said with emotion.
Ning Wanyin lowered her eyes. She didn’t care whether His Majesty was moved or not.
What you do with the sachet after receiving it is not very important.
The most important thing is to let the emperor see her sincerity and not let the emperor feel that she is neglectful.
As a favored concubine, Ning Wanyin always does everything that a favored concubine should do.
…
Yixiu Palace, Jinguizhai.
"Master, the Emperor's birthday is coming. What birthday gift do you plan to prepare for His Majesty? His Majesty always likes the novel things you make. If you can make another one, he will surely be favored again!" Dong Wu suggested.
Ever since Wei Yingya came out of the cold palace...
She never went to Ganxin Palace again, and the emperor never turned over her name card.
It is very common in the harem that a concubine that you once loved would be forgotten after not seeing her for a while.
And such a concubine could easily gain favor again as long as she attracted the emperor's attention again.
Everyone knows about Wei Yingya's endless methods of vying for favor.
I don't think she will fall out of favor.
"Heh——" Wei Yingya lazily lay on the bamboo couch and snorted coldly with ambiguous meaning.
In the past, she would have started preparing for the emperor's birthday ceremony a month in advance.
First, make him a nine-layer birthday cake, then sing a birthday song for him personally, and finally blow out the birthday candles with him.
But now…
Is he worthy of being the emperor?
Oh.
"No rush." Wei Yingya said perfunctorily.
Suddenly, an idea struck me.
Ah yes, birthday...
What about Ning Wanyin’s birthday?
"Dong Wu, go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ask about Concubine Ning's birthday. Also, find out what kind of fruits and flowers she likes to eat? Does she have any dietary restrictions?" Wei Yingya sat up excitedly, her eyes becoming brighter and brighter.
Dong Wu looked puzzled, "Huh?"
"Go!" Wei Yingya urged, "I'll give you a hundred taels of silver when you're done!"
Dong Wu didn't care why Wei Yingya wanted to investigate such a matter, and immediately bowed and saluted: "I obey your orders!"
…
June 9th, early morning.
The palace maids helped Helian Qi put on his dragon robe, and Ning Wanyin, who was lying on the couch, got up with the help of a maid.
The Wanshou Festival is a three-day holiday.
Your Majesty does not need to attend the morning court today.
However, there will be a birthday banquet in the palace at noon, and all civil and military officials as well as the empress and concubines must attend to congratulate Your Majesty.
"It's still early, you should sleep a little longer." Helian Qi looked at Ning Wanyin.
Ning Wanyin took a brocade box from Lian Rui and presented it to Helian Qi, bowing and saying:
"I congratulate your majesty on your longevity. Your majesty has been worried about state affairs recently, so I specially asked the imperial physician to prepare a fragrance recipe to calm the mind and spirit, and made this sachet. I hope your majesty can worry less and be in good health."
"The lotus petals in the sachet are from the Lingxue Pavilion. Your Majesty has given me a pond of lotus flowers, and I am delighted. In my heart, this is the flower of love between Your Majesty and me. I only wish to share this pond of lotus fragrance with Your Majesty."
Wang Degui quickly stepped forward and took the brocade box.
I thought to myself, Master Ning has a very clever mind.
I am concerned about your Majesty's health. I hope you are in good health.
Second, I thank Your Majesty for the lotus and give you lotus incense in return to express my love.
There is full of care and love, which man would not like it? Even he, a eunuch, felt that Master Ning really loved His Majesty.
