11. The clear of the river
Turning to the unknown flower note in a daze, Yuan Jiusi's voice was full of tears, she opened her empty purse and showed her, "Flower note, my handkerchief has fallen!"
"What handkerchief?" the flower note didn't react for a moment. When she thought of what she said, Hua Jian's face couldn't help but change.
As soon as I entered the door, it was gone, and it must have fallen outside. Knowing that Yuan Jiusi was a grumpy lord, Hua Jian hurriedly stabilized her and carefully reassured: "Don't worry, princess, maybe she is on the road." The slave and maid will take people along the road to look for it, and they will find it. ”
When he took the palace examination, he carried two such handkerchiefs on his body, saying that he was not ill-intentioned and ill-intentioned, and Yuan Jiusi himself would not believe it
Shaking her head, she muttered in despair: "What if it falls in the Chaoyun Palace? What if it is seen by my father or some traitorous villain?" Although Jinpa did not embroider anyone's name, she recognized the words on it, and at a glance she could tell that the handkerchief was either Yuan Xihe or hers.
The imperial sister is so good to herself, she can't innocently involve her, Yuan Jiusi was full of sorrow, and she had to carry the black pot on her knees. She is a naturally uninhibited person, just blinking, and in her heart, she has prepared all kinds of frank scripts after being caught.
Thinking about it, she even felt a sense of pride out of thin air, proud of her honesty and bravery.
Seeing that the person was silent for a long time, the flower note knew that she was starting to think crankily again. So he carefully analyzed for her: "When I was in Chaoyun Palace, the slave maid always followed the princess and kept an eye on it, if the veil fell off, the slave maid should not be able to see it." If Her Majesty really saw the princess's maid and maid, the princess would have accompanied Her Majesty to dine with the concubine at noon today. ”
Listening to her words made Yuan Jiu think about an extremely important matter, so he hurriedly instructed Lan Yi: "You take someone to Xianyin Palace now to see if the imperial sister has returned." ”
After that, I felt that it was a little inappropriate to go like this, so I added another sentence, "You go to my makeup and take the cloud-footed pearl tendril hairpin and a pair of lotus tassels and send them, and say that they will be used by the imperial sister when she travels at the end of the month." ”
The flower note bowed, "The slave maid also took a few people to look for them on the way from Nanping Zhuqiao to Hui Yun Xuan." The princess had just rested for a while after dinner, and the slave maid asked Cai Rong to come in and serve. ”
Closing his eyes, Yuan Jiusi waved his hand a little sleepily, "No need, you guys go first." ”
She has been so unhappy lately, and she is very happy and sad.
It's better to be a man and be restrained, no matter how proud you are, you can't get carried away.
Fingers tracing the lines carved on the beauty couch, Yuan Jiusi snorted coldly, I really have to blame some people, if it weren't for nagging him and not sitting in the pavilion for a while, the veil wouldn't have fallen.
She began to think back to the scene on the Zhu Bridge in Nanping. Suddenly, Yuan Jiusi suddenly opened his eyes, and his complexion changed drastically. I remember that when she was talking in the pavilion, she seemed to have stepped on something that was a little soft and a little flexible, but she was too busy considering the words to pay attention.
Yuan Jiusi's bad premonition became stronger and stronger, and he was really hit by his crow's mouth.
"Cairong!" she shouted outside, and a handsome maid came in. didn't care about anything else, Yuan Jiusi opened his mouth and said: "You hurry up and call a little eunuch with quick legs and feet to pass a message to the flower note, and ask her to quickly go to the place where she is talking by the bridge to find it!"
Xianyin Palace is not as good as the Jewel Palace, the Pearl Palace, and Beique are extravagant and luxurious everywhere. The small bridge and flowing water here, the building yard is beautiful, but there is a graceful and fresh. It's just a little bit more deserted.
When Lan Yi went, Yuan Xihe happened to take a nap and was talking to his biological mother Lin Shuzhi in the warm pavilion of Xiyi Palace. After the little eunuch who guarded the door went in and made a report, he happily came out and invited her in.
Lin Jieyu has no habit of burning incense, and there is only a faint smell of wood charcoal fire in the warm pavilion, which smells good with the elegant taste of tea.
Knowing that she was Yuan Jiusi's personal palace maid, Lin Jieyu very politely ordered Yunxiu to pour tea for her.
The tea soup is clear and green and the orchid fragrance is high and refreshing, the leaves are like algae, and when Lan Yi smells it from afar, he knows that it is the Taiping monkey Kui who paid tribute from the Yellow Mountain given by Emperor Xuan a few years ago. At that time, the season was humid, and Yuan Jiusi was afraid that the green tea would lose its sweet aroma if it was not well kept. And he gave them some to use.
Yuan Xihe saw that Lan Yi was still moving, and a trace of confusion flashed on his face.
Looking at Yuan Xihe's demeanor, Lan Yi estimated that she didn't know about the veil, so she put her mind at ease. smiled and thanked Lin Jieyu for her kindness, "The slave maid specially sent a few things to Princess Roude on the order of Princess Shuyi, and she hurried back to serve later, so she didn't bother much." ”
After that, the little maid who followed behind her stepped forward at the right time to carry the pearl cui in the box.
Yuan Xihe opened the box and saw several unique pieces of jewelry neatly placed on the snow-white flannel. Looking at the workmanship and texture, it should be the best jewelry shop in the imperial city.
"These were personally picked by the concubine Niangniang for Princess Shuyi two days ago. The princess has always been very precious and reluctant to wear it. But I also remembered that the end of the month was the day when the imperial sister traveled, so I asked the slave to send it to you. ”
Touching the cold pearl on his fingertips, Yuan Xihe smiled faintly, but he didn't have too much joy, "It's always Shuyi who has the most heart." ”
Lin Jieyu covered the box for her, and answered with a smile and covered it up: "That's not it, you two have had a good relationship since childhood, and although Princess Shuyi is young, she is always the best at taking care of people." ”
・
After Lan Yi had already left, Yuan Xihe was still staring at the teacup.
Walking slowly to her side, Lin Jieyu leaned down and asked her softly, "Where is Roude uncomfortable?"
After Yuan Xihe raised his eyes and saw the concern in Lin Jieyu's eyes, he smiled a little reluctantly, shook his head and said, "It's okay." "Lin Jieyu has a weak temperament, where is she willing to worry about herself as a daughter.
Because of her proximity to Yuan Jiusi, she often goes in and out of Guiyan Palace on weekdays. The monkey kui given by her father last year, she had already seen a few maids in Yun Xuan drinking.
Yuan Xihe remembered clearly that Lin Jieyu cherished those teas very much on weekdays.
Counting that my father has not been to Xianyin Palace for a long time, Yuan Xihe's expression has darkened a lot, she follows the rules everywhere and does not make mistakes, but her grace is far less than half of Yuan Jiusi.
Seeing that she was in a trance, Lin Jieyu knew that she had something on her mind, and sat on the soft couch next to her and persuaded her earnestly: "Although Shuyi is a little domineering, she is also an enthusiastic child. The two of you have been in love since childhood, and now we can be regarded as having Nie Guifei and her to take care of. What the mother concubine said is not very interesting, although Lan Yi's girl doesn't have as much thought as flowers, but you don't want to"
The silver beads and tassels hanging from the bun reflected her half-sorrowful face, her eyebrows were far away, and her posture was beautiful.
Looking at her silent daughter with her head down, Lin Jieyu couldn't bear to say any more. Yuan Xihe is only one year older than Shuyi, but she is far more sensible than Shuyi. Her child is obviously a beauty who does not lose people, but she can only stand behind Shuyi since she was a child.
Lin Jieyu's eyes were a little sour, in the end, she didn't have the ability to make her happy, so that she grew up watching people's faces since she was a child.
Seeing Lin Jieyu sad, Yuan Xihe blamed herself very much. Collecting his thoughts, he took her hand and smiled, "The child is not sad. It's just that the child is a little sad when he thinks that he is fifteen years old and can't always be by his mother's side in the future. ”
There is no owner in the harem, and she relies on Emperor Xuan to trust Nie Guifei to take power alone, so she is equivalent to holding a few points in the fate of several princes and princesses.
That is a person who seems to be casual and cares about nothing, but Yuanxi Helin Jieyu knows that there is nothing in this deep palace forbidden garden that she does not know.
When there is no threat, the lion will naturally put away her claws, or rather, she is creating a false impression to lure someone to take the bait.
Unexpectedly, she was worried about this matter, Lin Jieyu was slightly stunned and then held Yuan Xihe's hand, happy and distressed. "Silly boy, you can often visit the palace in the future! The concubine will also pray for you in the palace, as long as you live well, the concubine will be satisfied. ”
Nie Guifei is not easy to get close to. She knew that Yuan Xihe's approach to Yuan Jiusi was not without purpose, but fortunately, she knew how to measure, since her daughter had the heart to plan for her future, Lin Jieyu also turned a blind eye and acquiesced.
"The child does not worry the mother. Yuan Xihe's voice was extremely low.
