Wen Yi looked at Qing Wan's figure disappearing into the inner room, her face twisted, her fingers clenched, and the hem of her clothes was clenched so hard that it was deformed. She endured it again and again, but finally sat there without moving.
Qing Wan entered the house and changed her clothes before coming out again. She was a little surprised to see Wen Yi still sitting outside. Considering the other party's temperament, it was really surprising that he had not thrown up his sleeves and left after waiting for such a long time. Look.
There really is something very important to come to see her today.
Although he was surprised in his heart, his face remained calm.
Wen Yi's face clearly showed her impatience. When she saw her coming out, she forced herself to maintain a calm expression on her face and said, "I came here to ask the princess. In three days, the wedding of the fifth prince will be held. Is the princess there?"
Start preparing gifts?"
Qing Wan sat down on the chair, took the ginger soup from Bai Tan, and after drinking it, she slowly said: "The fifth prince is getting married, so I have to give him a congratulatory gift. Although I come from a small family, I can still
It’s not like I don’t even understand this bit of human sophistication. What’s more, there is a butler here, and he reminded me early in the morning.”
Qingwan answered while guessing the purpose of the other party's visit to her. Ordinarily, preparing gifts for the fifth prince's wedding should not be the other party's concern.
Then Wen Yi said again: "Then I wonder what the princess is planning to give?"
Qing Wan looked at the other party with a look in her eyes. She didn't understand why the other party was so concerned about this matter, so she said: "I haven't thought about what to give you yet, but since it is the wedding of the fifth prince, this gift
Naturally, it cannot be too shabby, otherwise it will lose the face of the palace and may offend the fifth prince and the queen. In short, since the prince is not here, I will ask the housekeeper to help watch the preparations."
After listening to Qing Wan's answer, Wen Yi did not express his position directly, but continued: "Princess, do you know who is the most valuable woman in the palace now?"
Qing Wan had a vague idea of what the other party wanted to say, and smiled and said: "The most favored woman in the palace is naturally the concubine's sister, Concubine Wen. I'm afraid everyone in the world knows this. Concubine Wen is the most favored woman.
Crowned in the Sixth Palace, it will last forever. But if you want to say that the woman with the most noble status and the most important responsibility in this palace, she must naturally belong to the current Queen. The Queen rules the Sixth Palace and is the mother of the world. Who else has it?
Is the status higher than hers? The concubine is waiting here specially. If you want to remind me of the queen’s status in the palace and use it as a reference for choosing gifts for the fifth prince, you can rest assured that I know what I am doing.
I won't let the congratulatory gifts be shabby and let the Queen feel dissatisfied with the palace because of this."
After hearing this, Wen Yi's face changed, and there was a trace of disdain in her eyes. Then she raised her chin slightly and said arrogantly: "The princess is wrong. The most noble woman in the palace now is my sister, not the queen."
Qing Wan pretended to be surprised and said: "How do you say this to the concubine?"
Then Wen Yi snorted coldly, "Commanding the Sixth Palace and being the mother of the world don't matter. It's just a vacant position. How can it be compared with the honor and favor of the emperor? The emperor named my sister the imperial concubine.
, and also gave my sister the power to assist in managing the Sixth Palace. Now my sister has the final say in everything in the palace? I naturally know that the gifts given by the princess will not be shabby. Now everyone in the capital knows that the princess
Not long ago, incense worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver was used to worship Mrs. Qing. This is not something that just anyone is willing to take out. However, I came today to remind the princess about this gift.
Since ancient times, there have been many considerations, especially among the royal family, which are usually based on the status of the other party and the friendship between them. Four years ago, when the fourth prince got married, the prince sent a pair of jade Ruyi as a gift to the concubine.
So, the princess must be able to understand what I mean, right?"
