Chapter 86 What is important?

Qingchuan cautiously said: "That tassel... the slave has already given it to the servants in the garden."

"Then go and get back!" Qingqing was still angry with the prince.

Qingchuan carefully picked up the jade pendant on the table, looked at it, and said, "Miss, although the original tassels of the jade pendant are old, they are of high-quality workmanship, even the best handicraft workshop in the capital may not be able to make them. This new one How can it be too bad?"

*
With a "snap", he gently slapped the jade pendant on the table, "Return it to the prince."

In her tone, she still carried the anger of that day.

"The tassels of this jade pendant, they say the workmanship is the same, my listening pavilion is all clumsy, where can I find such a needle and thread? Here, I washed it for you, and I returned it to you—"

Xiao Zijun glanced at it, and said in a cold tone, "This king's tassel has never been in the water. Since you have ruined this tassel, please ask the princess to replace it with a better one and return it to me."

"Did the prince do it on purpose!" Ning Weiwei lost his patience.

"Yeah." Without looking up, he calmly agreed, "It's just asking for a tassel."

What Xiao Zijun wanted was tassels made by Ning Qingqing himself, but he refused to mention it explicitly.But thinking about it, the tassels made by her handicraft are too ugly to look at.

"Why should the lord embarrass the concubine? Although this jade pendant looks inconspicuous, it is probably the lord's sticker?" She rolled her eyes and asked tentatively, "Is the name of the lord Yu?"

Only then did King Jin glance over, and deliberately asked, "You don't know?"

"Of course I don't know! How else would I have—"

He didn't say it lightly.That day she also ridiculed that person named Xiao Yu's poems were too depressing and his words were mediocre.

"Uh, I didn't take it to heart."

Not pretending to be generous, but getting used to her usual reckless words and deeds.

"But... since it is such an unusual adornment, the prince should value it. These tassels are not random. Who made it for the prince in the first place, wouldn't it be better to let her do it?"

He stared at her, pondering lightly: "How can you call it important?"

As if talking to himself, there was a faint wry smile on the corner of his lips, and his eyes gradually moved away.

This tassel was originally made by his nurse for more than ten years.

"The concubine personally makes a tassel for this character, is it considered important?"

Ning lightly grabbed the delicate sachet bag on his clothes, wondering: "But I haven't done it... I'm afraid it's ugly."

"If you don't do it, how do you know it's not good?" His starry eyes showed the usual arrogance, "How can my king's jade pendant be faked by those servants?"

Wei Wei couldn't help it, so she scratched her head and said try it, "But I have to wait a few days, I have to find someone to teach first."

Xiao Zijun looked at her rosy face, but Suizi was not what he was thinking about.

This Ning Qingqing is really heartless.When she was in danger that day, she was terrified at the time, she didn't expect to forget it so quickly, it was not a serious matter, but he was so busy these few days with the assassination.

Because Zhujian Villa was involved, King Jin wanted to cover up the assassination and make it small.It was an understatement to spread it to the palace. People thought it was just a small episode, and it was a trivial matter to the cold-faced King Jin.

Don't mention the turmoil, after a short subside, maybe even bigger turmoil will be brewed.

The next day, the prince came back from outside on horseback, seemed to be in a good mood, and wanted to take her to a place.

"I don't want to go out." Gently shook off his hand, "Didn't you ask me to make tassels for you? Where does this concubine have so much free time to wander around?"

King Jin didn't answer, but ordered someone to help the princess into the sedan chair.

After going to the mountains, it is a quiet temple.

Slightly puzzled, he said gently: "Take you to meet someone, don't you want someone to teach you?"

Wei Wei became more and more curious about who to meet.

*
It rained in spring yesterday, the new branches in the mountains were spotlessly green, the air was slightly cold, and it was very quiet.Gently and involuntarily wrapping the cloak around his shoulders, the steps under his feet also slowed down.

Before it got close, there was a faint scent of incense lingering out, and after gently stepping in, an old woman slowly came out from inside.

She was dressed plainly, a little fatter, and the sun shone through, giving her the air of an ascetic old woman.

She was walking slowly, but when she raised her eyes and saw someone coming, she gave Ning a light glance before looking at Jin Wang Xiao Zijun.

"The prince is here."

The tone is very light.

Then she turned around and went in, and ordered her servants to prepare porridge for the prince, but she made tea for the prince herself.

Lightly standing there, looking back at the prince, he always felt that this woman had a close relationship with the prince.

She poked him and whispered, "Are we going to eat here?"

Xiao Zijun didn't answer, just took her cold little hand back, and sat with her on the seat opposite to the woman.

The woman poured the tea and handed it to the prince, "It's rare that the prince doesn't dislike the rough tea made from the spring water on the mountain." The prince didn't say anything, just took the tea.

The woman wanted to serve her tea again, but Ning Qingqing also realized what it was, so she hurried forward to pick it up, and said with a smile, "Thank you. I cherish this mountain spring water the most."

The woman's indifferent face was a little kind, and she looked at Ning with a little thought.

"This is Qingqing." The prince said, and looked at Qingqing again, "My wet nurse has been up the mountain for many years."

Ning gently shook his hand holding the tea, stood up immediately from his seat, and said sweetly, "Hi nurse!"

"Wangfei is polite, but Cheng Ying is rude."

The woman looked at her carefully, nodded, and her smile grew stronger.

The three of them said some simple words, and after a while, the prince seemed to have something to go out, leaving Qingqing alone to accompany Cheng Ying, Prince Jin's wet nurse.

Seeing that the prince was not there, Ning Qing felt relieved suddenly, and said more.

For example, why is the wet nurse not in the palace?I wonder if it snows here in winter?

"The snow here has just melted. If the princess wants to enjoy the snow, she can come earlier."

"Then I'll come next winter. The nanny can call me lightly, I don't have as many rules as he does."

The woman nodded lightly, and when she got up and looked left and right, there was a smile in the corner of her eyes, "How old are you?"

She was looking at a Buddha statue, and when she heard the words, she turned her head and smiled and said, "This year is seventeen, born in April."

The woman nodded and seemed to be talking to herself: "It's not too young. He is six years younger than the prince, and he is the first month."

Frowning slightly, he realized that he didn't know the prince's birthday, and also wondered that he didn't have a birthday banquet.This kind of thought was only fleeting, she blinked and said: "Nurse's tea is very good, I also want to learn how to cook tea with you."

"It's not difficult. If you want to learn, I will teach you."

Here, Ning gently pestered Cheng Ying to learn how to make tea.

Xiao Zijun walked in after guessing his skills.Ning Qingqing's nose was sweating now, and her whole body exuded some tea fragrance.

He gave a rare smile, "Nurse, I've troubled you."

Ning Weiqing is very proud, "I have learned it! Is it a wet nurse?"

(The age of the prince has been changed, it is 6 years older than Qingqing. Didn’t some readers notice that Qingqing can speak freely already.)
