Emperor Xihe was impartial, and the dancers he sent were all as beautiful as flowers, and they all seemed to have low eyebrows and easy-to-control looks.
Lu Qing was not very interested in them, and was more curious about Ning Huayue's performance.
In the tent, a crack appeared in Ning Huayue's expression after hearing about this arrangement.
"Where are the people? Bring them to me and see." She is not afraid to send new people into the house. These two dancers are nothing. After returning to Beijing, there will be two new people to fill the vacancy of concubines. Compared with these two people, they don't have much presence. It feels like Ning Huayue is more concerned about whether the newcomer is obedient enough.
Chen Qingzi sat admiring her nails without caring about anything else. When the two dancers came in, she didn't even raise her eyes.
Lu Qing took a look out of curiosity.
Naturally, he has a good appearance and a good figure. He has learned the rules and bowed in front of Ning Huayue, which seems to be the case.
"My servant Xichun, I have met the princess and all the masters."
"My servant Nian Xia has met the princess and all the masters."
Ning Huayue observed their expressions from a high position and saw that they were quite honest, so she prepared to give them the status of concubines with a few simple words of instruction.
"Our palace cannot tolerate people with evil thoughts. Now that you have become..."
After saying a few words, Fang Jinbao bent down at the door and asked to be seen.
Ning Huayue was confused: "Is there something wrong with Eunuch Fang coming over?"
Fang Jinbao looked at Xichun and Nianxia with a smile and explained: "The prince asked his servants to come and fetch these two maids."
"Girl?" Ning Huayue was confused, and even Lu Qing raised her eyes to look at Fang Jinbao.
Isn’t it said that rewards are passed down to descendants? How do you say she is a maid?
Fang Jinbao didn't explain too much, still smiling: "This slave also acts according to the prince's instructions."
Ning Huayue suddenly realized: "Let them serve the prince?" This is equivalent to Lu Qing and the others' initial identities - maidservants. Ning Huayue looked at Lu Qing with gloating, feeling much better and letting them go readily. , "Since it is the prince's arrangement, Eunuch Fang will take it."
Xichun and Nianxia also thought that they were going to be the maids of the first wife. Not only were they not disappointed, but they were excited and happy because they had more opportunities to serve Yan Fuguang. They couldn't wait to follow Fang Jinbao out of the tent.
As soon as they left, Ning Hua Yueming seemed to be analyzing the situation, but in fact, he was just trying to cause trouble for Lu Qing. She said: "I think that's how Concubine Wei started her career step by step. To this day, your deeds are still envied by many sisters in the house but cannot learn from them. I once thought that there would only be one Concubine Wei. Today Well……"
She really wanted to see Lu Qing lose her composure, but Lu Qing just didn't do what she wanted.
"For the sake of the Royal Family of Dayan, the Queen asked the Emperor to reward the dancers. The prince is young and vigorous, and there are indeed fewer children. It would be a good thing to have more sisters to share the worries of the Queen. I also want to see the prince have more lovely children. .”
Who doesn't know what to say in a scene? Not only can Lu Qing say it, but even if it happens, she can accept the result calmly.
Don't embarrass yourself about things that are beyond your control. One day she may lose Yan Fuguang's favor, but she still has her children and herself. Based on these, she will try her best to live a good life.
Ning Huayue thought that Lu Qing didn't mean what she said, so she smiled meaningfully, waiting to see the joke.
Coincidentally, Yan Fuguang was also waiting for Lu Qing's reaction.
He thought that when he first arrived in Lintu, he didn't even look at the dancing girl, so she would be jealous. Now that Emperor Xihe directly rewarded her, her jealousy should be overturned again.
Yan Fuguang waited and waited, from day to night, but did not wait until Lu Qing came to him.
Completely unable to sleep anymore, he simply sat up and lifted the quilt.
Fang Jinbao was startled, thinking something had happened, and asked hurriedly: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
Yan helped her to put on her clothes neatly, buttoning them up while answering, "I'll go to your Master Wei's place and have a look."
"I'm afraid Master Wei and the eldest son have gone to bed long ago. You..." It's better not to make any noise.
However, Yan Fuguang had made up his mind. If he didn't ask in person, he would not be able to sleep tonight no matter what.
On the way, Fang Jinbao guessed Yan Fuguang's intention. He asked puzzledly: "Wouldn't it be better if you explained the whereabouts of the two dancers earlier?" He didn't believe it and arranged for the two to go to the dining room as maids to cook the fire. If you tell me, Master Wei can still make trouble with you? I don’t know why His Highness is making such a fuss.
Lu Qing hugged Brother Lan and slept soundly. The mother and son were close to each other, their profiles were very similar, and even their breathing rate was the same.
Yan Fuguang sat quietly on the edge of the bed, moving Brother Lan away very gently and slowly.
Lu Qing soon noticed that there was someone around her. She opened her eyes warily and almost screamed.
"Shh-" Yan Fuguang covered her mouth and whispered in her ear, "It's me, don't shout, you'll wake up Brother Lan later."
Lu Qing blinked and nodded. After Yan Fuguang removed her palm, she lowered her voice and asked, "It's so late at night. You're not sleeping. Why are you here?"
Yan Fuguang's face was expressionless, and he pinched her cheek flesh, "Let's see you."
"...What do you want me to do?" Lu Qing was puzzled.
"Let's see if you have a conscience."
"...Huh?" Lu was completely confused now. What kind of heartless thing had she done?
Yan Fuguang said whatever he wanted to say and would not hide it in his heart. He asked: "The queen asked the father to reward two people. Do you know this?"
"I know, I saw them today. They are two beautiful flowers..."
"That's not what you're talking about." Yan Fuguang pinched her chin again and rubbed her lips with his thumb, "What do you think?"
"They are all sisters..." Lu Qing didn't think there was anything wrong, but looking at Yan Fuguang's deep eyes, she still changed her words, "The Queen and the people who are rewarded by the Emperor, I don't dare to comment. It all depends on what you think." She was keenly aware of Yan Fuguang's intention, so she simply hid in his arms and said dullly, "What do you think?"
She threw the question back to Yan Fuguang, and then looked directly at him with a pair of bright and clear eyes.
Yan Fuguang covered her eyes with evil intentions and said persistently: "Tell me first, are you jealous or not?"
Come on, Lu Qing understood it completely. She said without hesitation: "They are younger and more beautiful than me. Of course I will feel a sense of crisis. I am afraid that you will be attracted by them and forget about me."
Finally hearing what he wanted to hear, Yan Fuguang was satisfied. He did not give in and said directly: "It is a last resort to accept them. When we get back, we will send them to the dining room to light the fire. I won't look at them anymore."
Lu Qing's eyebrows were curved, and she poked Yan Fuguang's chest, and said in a low voice: "Isn't that the talent is overkill? The prince will not show mercy to her."
Yan Fuguang liked the way she made her petty person say sour words. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "No, I just want to pity you."
