Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 1

"One tael of agarwood powder, one qian of sandalwood powder, ten goose pears. Dig out the pear cores of goose pears and make them into urns..."

In the autumn of the seventh year of Mingde, there was a lot of wind and rain.Inside the Qin Yaxuan in Zhongyong Hou's Mansion, there was a warm fragrance. Lu Wanning was flipping through the fragrance book in her hand when the maid, Yun Xiang, hurried in and reported in a low voice: "Miss, sister Xia He, who is next to the old lady, came to the old lady just now." Want to see you."

Lu Wanning raised her head when she heard the words, and slightly frowned her two slender willow eyebrows, "At this time?"

Yun Xiang nodded, "I have asked Sister Xia He, and Sister Xia He said that the old madam had someone call you over after reading the letter from the palace, and that the old madam not only called you, People also called them Third Miss, Fourth Miss and Sixth Miss."

After hearing what Rue Xiang said, Lu Wanning frowned even tighter. Could it be that the old lady found out that they had something to do with the palace?
After guessing in her heart, Lu Wanning changed her clothes, held an oiled paper umbrella, and took Rue Xiang to Jifutang.

When Lu Wanning arrived at Jifutang, the third cousin Lu Wanqing and the fourth cousin Lu Wanrou had already arrived and were talking with the old lady Lin.

After Lu Wanning saluted Lin, she greeted Lu Wanqing and Lu Wanrou, "Third sister, fourth sister."

The two responded, "Fifth Sister."

Lin looked at Lu Wanning carefully, and waved to her, "Ning girl, come and sit beside grandma."

"Yes, grandma." Lu Wanning walked up to Mrs. Lin and sat down on the seat on her right. Seeing Mrs. Lin's face was a little tired, she asked with concern: "Grandma's face doesn't look very good, does she?" Didn't you rest well?"

"It's nothing." Lin said: "It may be because of the weather change. I can't sleep these few days."

"Grandmother should pay attention to your body." Lu Wanning said: "Wanning happened to read a fragrance from a book today that can soothe the nerves and help sleep, so I made it for my grandmother to try."

Lin nodded in relief, "You are filial."

While talking, the sixth cousin, Lu Wanyi, arrived late.

As soon as Lu Wanyi came in, she rushed to Lin's side and acted like a baby, "Grandmother, why did you ask him to come over now? His skirt almost got wet."

Lin nodded with a straight face on Lu Wanyi's forehead, but she couldn't hide a smile in her eyes, "You came so late, and grandma hasn't said anything about you yet, so you complained first? Your sisters are still here , I don’t know how to call someone.”

Lu Wanyi turned her head to look at Lu Wanning and the others, and called perfunctorily, "Third Sister, Fourth Sister, Fifth Sister."

After shouting and not waiting for a few people to answer, Lu Wanyi immediately turned her head back, shook Lin's hand and said, "Grandma, what is the purpose of calling us here?"

Mrs. Lin shook her head helplessly, and said with a smile: "The imperial concubine sent a letter today saying that she misses you. I asked you to come here to tell you that you all should dress up tomorrow. I will take you into the palace to visit the imperial concubine." .”

"Really? Really? Can we enter the palace tomorrow?" Lu Wanyi shouted happily.

Lu Wanrou was originally curling her lips quietly at Lu Wanyi's behavior, but now she heard the news and couldn't care less about Lu Wanyi's favor in front of Lin's, she also looked excited.

Lu Wanqing lowered her head and couldn't see her expression clearly.

Lu Wanning had just the right expression of surprise on her face, but her heart was full of twists and turns.

The imperial concubine in the old lady's mouth is their eldest sister Lu Wanyun.

As early as when the current Holy Majesty was still the prince, Lu Wanyun was designated by the late emperor as the side concubine of the current Holy Majesty. In the past ten years, Lu Wanyun has been honored and favored continuously. Coupled with the military exploits made by the men of the Zhongyonghou Mansion in the frontier, Lu Wanyun Three years ago, she was promoted to the position of imperial concubine by the present sage.

Lu Wanning and her concubine cousin are not close. After all, they are nearly ten years apart. When Lu Wanyun entered the prince's residence as a side concubine, she was still young, and there was no relationship between them.

The same goes for the other three sisters. They haven't seen the imperial concubine for so many years. Is the imperial concubine really just thinking of them when she asks them to enter the palace?Want to meet your natal sisters?

Coming out of Lin's Jifutang, when the cold wind blew, Lu Wanning shivered. She tightened the cloak on her body, smiled and said to Lu Wanqing beside her: "Third sister, let's go together?"

Lu Wanqing nodded, "OK."

The two walked to the door of Qin Yaxuan in silence. When they were about to part, Lu Wanqing asked suddenly, "What color will Fifth Sister wear tomorrow?"

Lu Wanning looked up at Lu Wanqing.

Lu Wanqing explained: "I'm afraid that I will wear heavy clothes with my fifth sister."

Lu Wanning smiled, and said: "A few days ago, I happened to make a maroon dress with the fabric that my grandmother gave me. I will wear this dress tomorrow."

Lu Wanqing nodded with a smile, "Since the fabric was awarded by my grandmother, I think it can't be wrong. Fifth sister, hurry up and go in. My sister, I should go back too."

"Third sister, go slowly!"

Not long after Lu Wanning returned to Qin Yaxuan, Tao Shi came over holding the maid's hand.

"Mother, it's raining, why are you here?" Lu Wanning went up to greet her, and said, "You are weak, and you should feel uncomfortable if you get caught in the rain."

"Mother is fine, she's holding an umbrella, so she can't get wet." Dao patted Lu Wanning's hand, and asked worriedly, "What is the old madam asking you to do at this hour?"

Lu Wanning helped Tao Shi to sit down, and said: "Mother, don't worry, the old lady came to us to tell us that the imperial concubine in the palace wants to see our natal sisters, and let us go to the palace with her to meet the imperial concubine tomorrow."

"The imperial concubine wants to see you?" Tao's heart suddenly frowned, "Why did the imperial concubine want to see you all of a sudden?"

The girls in the family have all reached the age to talk about marriage. If the imperial concubine wants to see them at this time, it must be because she has the idea of ​​their marriage?
Based on the importance that the old lady attached to the imperial concubine, if the imperial concubine really wanted to marry her daughter, the old lady would definitely agree.

Lu Wanning didn't want Dow to worry, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't think about it so much, the imperial concubine just lost her child a while ago, and she suddenly wants to see us at this time, maybe she really just wants to talk to her natal sisters. And Even if the imperial concubine really has other plans, there are three sisters and four elder sisters above the daughter, as long as the daughter doesn't act too eye-catching tomorrow, I think the imperial concubine will not pay too much attention to her daughter."

Dow looked at Lu Wanning's overly outstanding appearance and shook his head.

She and her husband are both good-looking people, and the daughter is more focused on the strengths of the two. A few years ago, she didn't show it when she was young, but in the past two years, she gradually showed her charm color to.

Hibiscus face, willow-leaf eyebrows, bright eyes, red lips and bright teeth, even without makeup, it is difficult to hide its freshness.

With such an appearance, even if the daughter deliberately hides her clumsiness, it is difficult not to attract the attention of the imperial concubine.
