Ning Yi looked at the medicine on the tea tray, couldn't help but purse his lips and slowly clenched his fists, he looked up at Concubine Xian.

Concubine Xian ordered lightly, "Drink it." ”

Concubine Xian is a very gentle person in front of the palace people on weekdays, rarely loses her temper, even if the new little palace maid is not good at serving, she will tolerate her a few times, and will not shout and kill at every turn, and she is better than some low-ranking concubines.

But although the virtuous concubine who is sitting on the upper seat now is not very speakable, she can make people feel the deterrence emanating from her, even if it is soft-spoken, it makes people feel that they cannot be disobeyed.

Ning Yi's gaze stayed on the bottle of medicine for a long time, and cold sweat slowly broke out on his forehead, but Aunt Yin, who was standing in front of him, neither left nor urged him, and Concubine Xian was intently embroidering the double dragon play bead in her hand as if she had forgotten that there was someone in front of her, and the needles in the entire hall could be heard.

Finally, Ning Yi closed his eyes and raised his hand to pick up the bottle of medicine in the tray, uncorked the bottle, and when he was about to drink it in one gulp, Concubine Xian suddenly spoke: "There is nothing you want to say in the end?"

A drop of cold sweat fell from Ning Yi's forehead and smashed on the floor tiles under his feet, and a "pop" sound seemed to be heard in the silent hall.

Ning Yi was silent for a moment: "No." ”

Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows: "You don't have anything to say to the princess?"

"Nope. The tone was calm.

Concubine Xian stared at Ning Yi for a moment, and smiled slightly: "Then drink it,"

Ning Yi raised his hand and drank the medicine in his hand, and then knelt there quietly without making a sound, as if waiting for death to come.

It's just that until the sand in the hourglass flowed all over the glass ball below again, and after the entire hourglass was upside down three times, Ning Yi still didn't notice anything unusual in his body, and he couldn't help but glance at Aunt Yin suspiciously.

Concubine Xian finally put down the needle and thread in her hand and said lightly to Ning Yi: "Get up." ”

Ning Yi showed a little doubt on his face, and Aunt Yin said loudly: "What Niangniang gave you just now is a healing elixir, which is very good for the healing of your injuries, so thank you quickly." ”

Ning Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his entire body suddenly relaxed. He seemed to want to kowtow to Concubine Xian to thank him, but he almost couldn't support it.

Concubine Xian finally smiled and said meaningfully: "I know that you are afraid? ”

Aunt Yin wanted to help Ning Yi get up, but Ning Yi shook her head. Stand up on your feet.

Concubine Xian couldn't help but smile when she saw that he couldn't stand steadily, but still wanted to stand up straight.

"Your Majesty said that he would reward you heavily, do you have anything you want?"

Ning Yi was silent for a moment, lowered his eyes and said, "I don't need anything else, please ask my mother to reward me with silver." ”

Concubine Xian seemed a little surprised when she heard this: "Like gold and silver things?"

Ning Yi nodded calmly. After a pause, he said: "When I first entered the palace, because I didn't have any money to put in the old chamberlain, he asked him to arrange a good place for me, and I gave away the only jade pendant left by my family, and I heard that it was taken to the pawnshop, and I wanted to redeem it." ”

Concubine Xian didn't get angry when she heard that he had bribed the old chamberlain, but smiled slightly: "This palace knows." It's just that you can't stay in this Qingxi Palace anymore. ”

Ning Yi was silent for a moment and said, "I obey Niangniang's arrangement." ”

Concubine Xian nodded with satisfaction, and asked in a gentle tone, "Do you have a place where you would like to go?" ”

Ning Yi thought for a while: "I want to go to the Criminal Prison Division." ”

Concubine Xian couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she heard this: "Prison Division, do you know what kind of place it is?"

Ning Yi's expression was unshocked: "I know." ”

Concubine Xian looked at Ning Yi noncommittally: "Tell me." ”

Ning Yi said: "A place where people can see my face." ”

Aunt Yin reprimanded: "Presumptuous!"

Concubine Xian waved her hand at Mama Yin, she looked at Ning Yi with a deep groan: "It's a pity that the Criminal Prison Department does not belong to the place where concubines can interfere, even if I can speak in front of the queen, I'm afraid it's useless." ”

Ning Yi was silent for a moment, but said, "You can intervene after I go." ”

Aunt Yin's face changed. Turning her head to look at Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian looked at Ning Yi silently.

Ning Yi still stood there unfazed, as if what he had just said was just a very casual sentence.

Concubine Xian got up from her seat, slowly walked to the window, looked at the courtyard outside through the screen, I don't know how long it took for her to finally say, "You go back to recuperate first, I'll think about it." ”

Ning Yi didn't say a word of nonsense, and turned around and left after a salute.

When Ning Yi's footsteps walked away, Aunt Yin said, "Niangniang, do you really want to use him?"

Concubine Xian gently pushed the screen open. Seeing Ning Yi's straight back gradually disappear into the courtyard: "Didn't you check his origin?"

Aunt Yin thought for a while: "There is really no problem with his origin, it's just that the Criminal Prison Department has too much power, why did you arrange for him to go in?

Concubine Xian said: "This palace is not to the point where no one is available, but there is no one more suitable than him." Afraid of death but brave. Arrogant but obedient, good money but frank, family affection but flexibility, ambition and proportion. Such a person can do things and be grateful, as long as he is given the benefits and respect he deserves. Naturally, he is willing to go to great lengths for you and is loyal. ”

Aunt Yin thought about Ning Yi's various performances since she entered the palace, and couldn't help but feel that Concubine Xian's judgment should be correct, but she still had some concerns: "But the princess, she ......."

Concubine Xian smiled: "Who doesn't have a young age? Don't you know that the more you stop her at this time, the more she will rebel against you? Now in her eyes, the queen who is obedient to her is much more obedient than me, the mother who manages her everywhere. So instead of making the mother and daughter turn against each other in the end, it is better to let her recognize by herself what kind of person Ning Yi is. ”

Speaking of this, Concubine Xian sighed: "Ning Yi is a person like this, where is it for girls to like it? let her see it for herself, in fact, it's okay like this, and if she sees it clearly earlier, she won't make the mistakes I made in the future." ”

Aunt Yin opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything after all.

As soon as Ning Yi stepped out of Concubine Xian's line of sight, Ning Yi curled the corners of his mouth mockingly, and that smile made people feel very cold even in the sun.

Although Wei did not tell the truth to the He family, she did not really give up hope before the bad news really came, and the next day Wei went out in the name of going to the store to check the accounts, but in fact, she wanted to arrange for her own people to go to Shandong.

He Lin was also going out today, but what she said to Wei was that she wanted to go to Zhao Qingqing to help inquire about her father's whereabouts, and Wei thought that after all, the Zhao family had not long moved to the capital from Shandong, and maybe they still had their own network in their hometown, and they might be able to help, so they agreed.

So the mother and daughter left the house separately.

It's just that He Lin didn't go to Zhao's house after he went out late, she asked Chunxiao to take her carriage to Zhao's house to send a letter to Zhao Qingqing, but she got off halfway.

As soon as He Linwan got out of the He family's carriage, an inconspicuous Qingbu carriage stopped in front of He Linwan. He Linwan glanced at the expressionless carriage driver and got into the car.

In the carriage, Li Yu sat there with a leisurely face, and when he saw He Lin coming at night, he raised his eyes and motioned for He Lin to sit opposite him.

"The prince of the world came to pick me up in person. "He Lin is polite and authentic in the evening.

Li Yu made tea by herself and ignored her.

He Linwan lifted the curtain slightly and glanced out: "Where is this going?"

Li Yu finally spoke with a sigh of gold: "Plum Garden." ”

He Linwan paused when he heard this, and lowered the curtain.

The two sat opposite each other and didn't speak, Li Yu made tea, and He Linwan watched with interest, watching him walk like flowing water and pleasing to the eye.

A crisp and thick fragrance of tea permeated the narrow space of the carriage, Li Yu raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for He Linwan, and watched He Linwan take a sip.

"How?"

He Linwan thought for a while: "The tea is good, the water is good, the tea set is good, the heat is just right, good." ”

Li Yu frowned when he heard this, he glanced at He Linwan and tasted it himself, and then put it down, and snorted coldly: "Praise everything, but there is nothing to praise, you are still so mean and hypocritical." ”

He Linwan glanced at Li Yu obliquely: "Mean and hypocritical, is this the evaluation of the prince of the world to me or the evaluation of that Yang Ugly girl?"

Li Yu drank the tea in front of him in one gulp: "What's the difference?"

He Linwan looked at Li Yu and smiled coldly: "Of course there is a difference, didn't the prince praise that Miss Yang as the most virtuous and virtuous woman?"

Li Yu was choked and looked at He Linwan in astonishment.

Then a conversation sounded in Li Yu's mind.

"As a girl's family, you should be chaste and elegant as the key, where is Miss He's female virtue?"

"So the female virtues of the princess in the next life are extremely well cultivated?"

"The princess of this world is naturally the most virtuous and virtuous woman in the world. ”

After thinking about it, Li Yu looked at He Linwan and was speechless.

From this moment on, Li Shizi remembered a sentence again, when you are facing a person who has an excellent memory and never remembers mistakes, you must be careful when you speak.

He Linwan never admitted that she was Yang Augly, but she didn't blindly deny it again, He Linwan felt that she still longed for someone to remember her as Yang Weizhen's existence from the bottom of her heart.

Fortunately, Li Yu has never asked her about her identity since that time in Taibailou, and it seems that he has already determined that he did not give He Linwan a chance to deny it.

The two of them were silent all the way until the carriage stopped at the gate of the plum garden.

Li Yu got out of the car first, and then turned around to help He Linwan, who glanced at him and jumped out of the carriage neatly.

Gao Feng, who acted as a coachman today, looked at the two of them expressionlessly, afraid that the master would think that his face was not good-looking, so he kindly comforted: "Shizi, since Miss He was able to kick your noble body away last time, she shouldn't need your support." ”.
