Chapter 190 – Birthday Gift
With Zhao Sum so interrupted, in the end did not dare to fool around anymore, while Marquis Qing Yun had not returned, Zhao Su first went to the kitchen to make a few dishes, Yun Qian Yi followed to rub some food, and by the way talked about the recent situation at home.
The eldest uncle Yao’s to Qing Yun Hou open up the renewal, said several families, but Qing Yun Hou one did not fancy, either too young, or too that can not hold things.
Zhao Su really did not expect the middle-aged people to treat the second marriage is also so picky, but as long as the Marquis of Qingyun House has this meaning to penetrate out, the candidates will still be a steady stream of people.
“But it’s also hard enough, the Marquis spends a lot more time in the Yamen every day, it’s hard to see that he has the time to be able to spare for a blind date.”
Zhao Su fried veggie meatballs, Yun Qianyi held the plate and ate the meatballs so to speak.
“Is the court so busy these days?” Zhao Su was puzzled. The emperor could have time to go on a micro-vacation, but Marquis Qingyun was so busy that he didn’t even have time for a blind date?
“That’s something I’m not sure about. But it seems like it’s always been like this.”
This wouldn’t work, dragging a year older, Zhao Su felt it was time to think of something.
While cooking and waiting, not wanting to work for a while but actually directly made four dishes and one soup, and then made soup noodles and side dishes for the two Yun Hua, just as the eldest follower also said that the Marquis of Qingyun had almost arrived home, so he had people carry the food basket to the main courtyard.
As soon as the dishes were placed on the table, someone came in from outside the courtyard door.
Zhao Su welcome out the door, it is really the Marquis of Qing Yun came back, but the face is quite a bit of bad luck, not like the usual majesty in the kindness of the appearance.
“Father met what happened?” Zhao Su greeted halfway.
“Oh, my daughter is back?” Marquis Qingyun seemed to have just seen her and paused in his steps, “When did you come back? How was the trip? Did things go well? I heard that the emperor also went, I actually heard about it first thing in the morning.”
Zhao Su one by one, accompanied him to the house: “Why do you look bad? You look like you’re angry with someone. Is there someone in the court against you again?”
“No.” Marquis Qingyun obviously didn’t sound like he had political troubles, “I just went to the front to prescribe some medicine, and I was pissed off by the doctor. -Well, why does it smell so good? You cook?” Here he quickened his pace.
What kind of doctor, can still be angry with him? How awesome must this be?
Thinking about the places that can prescribe medicines “in front”, the nearest one should be the Hui An Tang in front of the Square, could it be Dr. Chen?
No way! Isn’t Dr. Chen kind and gentle? How could she still be angry with Marquis Qingyun?
However, Marquis Qingyun has already gone into the inner dressing, and seeing the antiques on the side shelf, she put it down and walked over to view them one by one.
From the longevity festival has only four days, minus the day of the festival, there are only three days, Zhao Su when the boast of the sea has not yet fallen, she had no choice but to pull some wool in the pro father here.
Jade cabbage on the shelf, glazed bowls, amber bottles and so on, but these things the emperor is certainly not lacking, think of the emperor last night to ask for birthday gifts when the tone of voice, how she had to find a rare to deal with the past.
Just as the Marquis of Qing Yun came out, Zhao Su asked: “Father can open the treasury, let me pick a treasure?”
“What do you want a treasure for? Are you short of money?”
Zhao Sum, all refined after her bath, crossed the door and took up the conversation again.
“It’s the Halloween Festival soon, so I’m picking out a gift for the Emperor to celebrate his birthday.”
Zhao Sum reached out and ruffled her hair: “Little girl, flattering to a set of ass!”
Zhao Su did not explain to him.
……
With the permission of the Marquis of Qingyun, the next morning Zhao Su first let the housekeeper open the treasury, went in first to slip around, roughly have a number, to the palace, changed clothes and went to the Qianqing Palace.
The emperor did not read the folders for several days, last night from the Ci Ning Palace to the folders moved all over, see the midnight break. Today’s morning court is not inevitably long. Four happiness in the Qianqing Palace guard, waiting for Zhao Su.
“Servant Zhao, long time no see.” Four Happiness hailed. After not seeing her or the Emperor for a few days, it was quite uncomfortable.
Zhao Su exchanged a few pleasantries and asked him, “Let me ask you something.”
“You say.”
“What does the emperor usually like?”
Four happy mouth: “The emperor has no special favorite. If we are talking about the recent past, he is more interested in paper kites.”
Paper kite? Then she can’t give this thing away! She further asked, “Do you have any favorite hobbies? For example, gold and stone?”
“This, yes.” Four Happiness still readily accepts good advice, “A while ago, the emperor lost a piece of chicken blood stone, very sorry.”
Like stone ah.
Zhao Su heart has a number, immediately said goodbye to him.
Four happiness still have something to say did not have time to finish, she went out of the palace door.
Taking advantage of the time is still early, Zhao Su rushed back to the marquis house, and let the housekeeper opened the storehouse, selected a piece of excellent color of the bloodstone, take the brocade box, and back to the palace.
Just in time, the emperor has been off the court, is drinking tea to moisturize the throat.
He has changed the regular clothes slightly open, the neck of the whole exposed, inside the shirt and wrapped very close to the body, summer wear thin cause. Zhao Su did not dare to look at more, holding the box into, called “Emperor”, put his head down.
The emperor shook his fan and said: “You seem to suddenly become very respectful these two days.”
“Where, my subordinate has always been respectful to the emperor.”
The emperor did not comment and saw the box in her arms, “What is that?”
“Oh,” Zhao Su stepped forward, “This is the birthday gift that my subordinate has gone to great lengths to prepare for the Emperor, please take a look.”
“So soon?”
The emperor looked at her and took the box before opening it.
Zhao Su looked at him without blinking, only to see his eyes lingering in the box for a moment before he turned his face sideways towards himself, “This is the birthday gift you have prepared with all your efforts?”
“Yes, this stone is of excellent color, very rare, and it’s so big that you can make three or four small seals.”
She wasn’t lying at all, but why did his words sound so unsatisfied? This does not make sense ah, even if she does not know the goods, the marquis housekeeper must know the goods, the housekeeper also do not know the goods, that Qingyun marquis must also know the goods ah, she is from the treasury collection of the perfect that a cabinet to find this stone!
The emperor stared at her for a while, then got up, strolled to the inner room, personally carried out a large stack of boxes that had been well packaged.
The box was unpacked and placed on the table, inside is actually a color of chicken blood stone, a count actually have more than ten pieces, and each piece is a large piece, color is also very good!
“This is today within this half day, I received the chicken blood stone.”
The emperor shook the fan open again.
Zhao Su was dumbfounded, so many people have sent, then her birthday gift that “took a lot of effort” would not be surprising?
She suddenly understood four happy earlier to answer her question, why will be so fluent, together he has long answered others this question, so it is easy?
