MTL - To Hold One’s Joy-Chapter 453 Rely on others rather than yourself
Chapter 453 Relying on others is worse than relying on oneself
Give her something?
Luo Sheng was slightly taken aback.
Although I have received many gifts from King Kaiyang, mainly chrysanthemums, most of them were brought here when he came to eat wine. King Kaiyang has only returned to the mansion not long ago, what will he bring?
Just thinking about it, Hongdou handed over a small box: "Shi Sanhuo brought it back, and I don't know what's in such a small box."
Luo Sheng took the small box the size of a palm, and was a little curious.
Red Dou looked at it and repeated: "I don't know what's in it?"
Luo Sheng simply satisfied the little maid's curiosity and directly opened the small box.
In her opinion, even a man who gave her chrysanthemums every autumn would not be able to send something inconvenient for others to see.
In the small box lies a delicate enamel round porcelain box quietly.
Red Dou recognized it immediately: "Ah, it's Yunshuang Cream."
Luo Sheng also recognized it.
Yunshuang Ointment is used by the imperial court, and it is occasionally rewarded to princes and ministers. In the past, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion would get some every year. It has a miraculous effect on promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and removing scars.
"Why did King Kaiyang give you Yunshuang Cream?" Hongdou muttered, and suddenly realized, "Girl, where are you injured?"
Luo Sheng straightened his face: "No."
It would be an exaggeration to say that the bruise left by Wei Qiang's wrist was considered an injury.
"King Kaiyang gave you what you don't need, it's really strange." Hongdou was puzzled.
"Okay, let's go out and play, aren't we kicking shuttlecock with Kerr?"
Hongdou obediently exited the kitchen, and wentssip with Kouer: "King Kaiyang sent our girl a box of Yunshuang Cream."
Keer disagrees: "What's the matter, King Kaiyang even gave the girl a kitchen knife and chrysanthemums."
Yunshuang cream is a rare thing for girls, and it is much more normal than the gifts given before.
"But the girl is not injured, why did King Kaiyang send Yunshuang cream?"
Kuer pondered for a while, then shook her head: "Yes, although Yunshuang Ointment is precious, but the omen is not good, it seems that King Kaiyang still can't do it."
In the kitchen, Xiuyue's eyes were full of worry: "Girl, are you hurt?"
Luo Sheng simply lifted up his sleeves to expose his wrists, and said with a smile, "It's nothing at all."
Xiuyue glanced at the box of Yunshuang Ointment, hesitated to speak.
"Stop talking about those unrealistic things. I drank too much wine, so I went to the house to have a rest." Luo Sheng turned and left the kitchen.
Xiuyue walked to the door of the kitchen, looked at the lonely figure and sighed.
Luo Sheng walked into the room and sat there for a while, opened the enamel porcelain box, and applied the cool and white ointment to his wrists little by little.
The pain in her wrist has long since disappeared, but she doesn't want to let down the heart she has given to her.
After applying the ointment, Luo Sheng lay down on the bed, turned over, and then turned over again. It took an unknown amount of time before he fell asleep.
When I woke up again, the night had already drawn outside the window.
"Girl, you're awake." Kerr's voice sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a cup of honey water was sent into Luo Sheng's hands.
Luo Sheng drank two sips of honey water to moisten his throat, and asked Kouer: "Is it time to open the door?"
Keer smiled and said, "The lobby is almost full."
Luo Sheng finished drinking the honey water, took the coat handed by Kouer, put it on and walked outside.
Open the cotton-padded blue door curtain, and the smoke and fire in the lobby blows in your face.
Luo Sheng subconsciously glanced at the seat by the window, but did not see the familiar figure.
Is this drunk and missed dinner?
After thinking about it, Luo Sheng ordered: "Kuer, come back home with me."
Keer responded, and glanced at the red beans triumphantly.
Red Dou was busy serving dishes, too lazy to answer the provocative little hooves.
The night is as cool as water, and the deserted moonlight shines on the bluestone road, condensing into hoarfrost.
It was almost time for the restaurant to close.
Luo Sheng was blown by the cold wind, gathered his plain cloak, and ran into a woman head-on.
Luo Sheng recognized this as the female shopkeeper of the makeup shop diagonally opposite the wine shop, and heard that Kouer mentioned her surname as Han.
That makeup shop has long since become a good place for Kouer, Hongdou and even the female shopkeeper to have nothing to do. No matter how fine the food and clothing are in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, women's enthusiasm for shopping is unstoppable.
Han shopkeeper met Luo Sheng and was very busy.
Luo Sheng nodded in response, passing him by.
The female shopkeeper was already acquainted with the shopkeeper Han of the cosmetics shop, and when she came in, she approached and greeted her warmly: "The shopkeeper Han is here to drink, come in quickly, there are still seats inside."
Shopkeeper Han looked around, looking a little uneasy.
The female shopkeeper comforted in a low voice: "It's okay, the nobles who often come to drink have a good temper."
Shopkeeper Han nodded, and sat down at a table led by the female shopkeeper.
Hongdou came over and asked, "What does shopkeeper Han eat?"
Shopkeeper Han hesitated for a moment, and said, "Let's have a bowl of Yangchun noodles. I've always heard that the food in the restaurant is delicious. Come and try it."
Hongdou wanted to say something, but the female shopkeeper gave her a quick wink.
The Yangchun noodles in the wine shop are not cheap, not to mention other things, the shopkeeper of the cosmetic shop can't compare with those nobles.
Not long after, a bowl of steaming Yangchun noodles was served.
Shopkeeper Han pursed his lips, and began to eat in small bites.
The female shopkeeper asked with a bit of complacency: "How is it, sister didn't lie to you, did she?"
Shopkeeper Han nodded.
The female shopkeeper had a sense of superiority, and she sighed in a drawn-out tone: "I think back then, I was also the shopkeeper of a cosmetics shop. Who would have thought that I would be here today..."
Every day, you can eat the food and wine that the nobles are reluctant to eat once a month.
"The guests are here, shopkeeper Han will eat first." The female shopkeeper regretfully stopped showing off and walked towards the counter.
Luo Sheng returned to Xianyun Garden, took a bath and changed clothes to wash away the bad luck of going to prison during the day, let Koer dry her wet hair.
In the vanity mirror, the girl reflected is thinking.
Emperor Yong'an charged the Pingnan Palace with two major crimes, one was to curse the emperor with witchcraft, and the other was to frame the Zhennan Palace for treason.
Today, the people in Pingnan Palace have been punished as they should be, but there has been no news of Zhennan Palace being rehabilitated.
Thinking of that ruthless emperor, Luo Sheng just wanted to sneer.
Since Pingnan Wangfu was convicted of framing Zhennan Wangfu, it is tantamount to telling the world that Zhennan Wangfu was wronged.
It is a matter of course to restore the reputation and identity of the wronged person.
Emperor Yong'an did not move for a long time, it seems that he is planning to pretend to be confused.
The Zhennan Palace was overthrown thirteen years ago. People who were close to the Zhennan Palace died and avoided them. Now there is no one in the court who speaks for the Zhennan Palace.
Thinking about this, Luo Sheng suddenly thought of a person——Luo Dadu.
Supervisor Luo Dadu protected Bao'er, no matter what the reason was, he was definitely close to the Zhennan Prince's Mansion in his heart, but as the commander of the Jinlin Guard, it was even more impossible for him to speak first.
Luo Sheng pursed the corners of his lips, his expression cold.
It is better to rely on oneself than to rely on others, so it is better to let her do it.
In the brightly lit room, Luo Sheng called softly: "Kuer."
"What's your order, girl?" Kerr paused as she combed her hair.
At the end of the chapter, there is an activity to watch the video to unlock the red envelope of the monthly pass. Sisters who have time can help.
