Chapter 300 Vanity
Although what the little eunuch said was true, it was unavoidable for Li Bin to feel a little uncomfortable.
Sui Lu stepped forward to accept the reward, and secretly gave the little eunuch a bag of silver.
"Thank you, Eunuch."
The little eunuch accepted it with a smile, "It's a small matter."
Sui Lu put down the reward, closed the door, turned around and looked over, and saw Concubine Li sitting in front of the table with a dazed expression, looking at the two pairs of jades on the red lacquer plate, feeling unhappy again for a while.
She was able to get that reward, as the eunuch said just now, it was because of pleasing Concubine Xiao, which inevitably made her feel depressed.
But it's a good start, isn't it...
As long as one day, she can please His Majesty, so that His Majesty will reward her not because of anything else, but just because of her.
During these days, His Majesty only rewarded Xiao Yueyao, and now she is the only one to be rewarded.
She should be happy.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty still has His Majesty in his heart. Your Majesty, look at the two pairs of jade that His Majesty rewarded. They are of the highest quality."
Concubine Li heard the words and looked over, the quality of these two pairs of jades was indeed good, but compared with the ones from Kunluan Palace, I'm afraid they were a bit out of place.
Concubine Li once saw Ye Mohan's reward sent to Kunluan Palace, and the rewards were all the best.
Suilu put away the two pairs of jade, and looked at the pair of Jin Buyao.
"Your Majesty, this is a reward from Concubine Xiao..."
Concubine Li made up her mind: "Let's put it away together too. If it's not properly arranged, it's hard to say if Concubine Xiao asks about it that day."
"Yes, madam..."
—
This morning, the concubines and ladies in each palace listened to the news from last night.
Last night, apart from the fact that the Kunluan Palace got another reward last night, I never imagined that this reward would be for Concubine Li!
If only Kunluan Palace had received the reward, the masters of the other palaces would not have reacted so strongly.
After all, since these days, either Kunluan Palace has received rewards, or Kunluan Palace has received rewards.
Their hearts have changed from jealousy to numbness at the beginning.
But it doesn't matter if Kunluan Palace gets a reward, how come a little concubine Li also got a reward from His Majesty.
Immediately, the empresses of the various palaces felt unhappy.
Concubine Li went to pay her respects to the empress today, she would inevitably be squeezed out by other concubines and concubines.
But she had already expected it, and she didn't feel too uncomfortable.
Once back to the palace, I began to think about what cakes I should make today.
After all, His Majesty might eat her cakes now.
She has to be well prepared.
Sui Lu approached from outside the door: "Niang Niang, Yichang is asking to see you outside the door."
"What is she here for?"
Liqin frowned.
Suilu shook her head incomprehensibly.
People are already standing outside the door, and it's not easy to drive them back now.
"Let her in."
Under the leadership of Suilu, Yichang walked in slowly, saw Concubine Li's attire, and said with a smile: "Sister, are you going to make cakes for Kunluan Palace?"
Li Pin gave her a lukewarm look, and then continued to work.
"Yes."
As if Yi Changzai didn't see Li Pin's cold face, she warmly approached her again.
"I heard that my sister showed up to His Majesty yesterday and got a reward that night. We are really envious."
Concubine Li didn't speak, the corners of her mouth twitched, and the pride in her eyes couldn't be hidden.
Yichang kept talking here.
It was not until Concubine Li was ready to deliver the cakes that she got up to leave.
In the past few days, she came here every day, but Li Pin didn't have any reason to keep people out.
On the contrary, Sui Lu was a little dissatisfied.
"Your Majesty, why do you think this Yichang is coming every day? Could it be that you want to watch secretly and learn from your Majesty how to make cakes?"
Li Pin didn't take Yi Changzai to heart at all.
"Oh, she's here to show her courtesy."
It is normal for concubines to go to whoever is favored in this harem.
All of these people can't avoid vulgarity.
It's just that the gate of Kunluan Palace has always been closed tightly, and after the concubines went there a few times and had the door shut, they also faded away from their fawning intentions.
Li Pin did not expect that now she could also enjoy the feeling of being flattered.
This satisfied her vanity and face.
She was not willing to drive away Yi Changzai, and of course she would be careful not to let her see how she made the dim sum.
today.
Concubine Li had just finished delivering the noon snacks, and came back in a hurry to start working on the afternoon snacks again.
"Suilu, you must use the best materials."
Suilu hurriedly went down to prepare, but couldn't help but say joyfully.
"Your Majesty, do you think His Majesty will come to Kunluan Palace tonight?"
When they came out of Kunluan Palace, they happened to see Eunuch Li going to Kunluan Palace with a happy face.
"I don't know, but the cakes sent over must be made well."
"Yes, ma'am."
Concubine Li's Jingze Palace was busy.
But when Yichang came, there was no one to greet her, and as soon as she entered, she saw that everyone was busy with work and ignored her.
Concubine Li: "These oils are not good, you must have fresh sesame oil, so that the smell can come out, that's all right, I'll get it myself..."
Li Pin turned around and walked into the hall.
The other maids were busy with their work outside the small kitchen.
When Li Pin was making cakes by herself, no one else was allowed to enter the kitchen.
Yichang suddenly became flustered in her heart, she looked around and gathered herself.
He thought of Xiao Yueyao, and also thought of Li Concubine's bragging rights in front of her in the past few days.
She became cruel, went into the small kitchen, and came out after a while.
On the way, he bumped into a maid.
"Hey, Empress Yi, are you here to look for our empress?"
Perhaps because of a guilty conscience, Yichang jumped up quickly with his heart pounding, "No, it's okay, since your mother is busy, then I won't bother you, I, I'll go first..."
After speaking, Yi Changzai hurriedly left.
The hand holding the embroidered handkerchief was tightly clenched.
—
Kunluan Palace.
The pastry delivered by Concubine Li in the afternoon was half an hour earlier than usual.
Lu Chun took it: "Thanks for your hard work, Concubine Li..."
Concubine Li glanced at Luchun, and looked into the room, "I have prepared more ingredients today, and I made an extra portion of pastries today."
Lu Chun smiled and said: "That would be great, our mother loves the cakes made by your wife Li Pin, and she keeps complaining that there is not enough for her."
"This, this..." Li Pin stretched her head and didn't see the room, so she could only bite the bullet and ask.
"Is His Majesty in there?"
Lu Chun's smiling face froze, and she immediately understood that Concubine Li didn't care about drinking.
Concubine Li looked at Luchun with a sense of embarrassment that was seen through, and her eyes wandered, "I just asked casually, since the pastry has been delivered, I'm leaving."
Li Pin walked out with Sui Lu.
Sui Lu lowered her voice, and regretfully said: "Your Majesty, it seems that His Majesty hasn't come yet, we came early."
