When I began to think that life would go on like this forever, the Ulanala clan suddenly sent someone to summon me.

From entering the mansion to the present, I have only seen this concubine Fujin once on the second day after entering the mansion. After that, she said that she couldn't get out of her illness and handed over the power of the inner court to the Li family, so that the Li family had the opportunity to test me, and a punishment was half a year.

Now that we are in June, and the time limit for punishment has passed halfway, the sudden summoning of the Ulanala clan at this juncture has surprised me and made me very uneasy.

Walking into this garden that is not unfamiliar again, the little maid who had a conflict with me before was waiting for me outside the house. Although she still looked at me with hostility in her eyes, she didn't embarrass me, just gave a formal salute, and said, "The master of Fujin is checking the homework of the eldest brother, let the slave wait here", and led me into the inner hall.

Ulanala was leaning on the couch by the window, and opposite her was Honghui. He was holding a brush in his little hand and practicing calligraphy, and when he saw me come in, he called out with a smile and childishness: "Aunt Geng is well." ”

His kind smile suddenly relaxed my nervousness, smiled at him, and turned to salute the Ulanala clan, waiting for the Ulanala clan to speak first.

The Ulanala clan was exempted from the salute and was given a seat. She had a smile on her face, and her gentleness and friendliness made people a little uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but wonder if there would be something greasy in it.

Cautiously thanking him, he sat down, his hands clutching the handkerchief, trying to make himself look less nervous.

"I haven't seen each other for some days, and my sister has lost weight. She read Honghui's words and praised a few words, and then asked people to take him down first, and then to greet me.

"Since my sister has entered the house, she is a master no matter what, I don't often take care of the affairs of the house, my sister can't treat herself badly. ”

The Li family's suppression of me is not a day or two, everyone in the house knows it, even if the Wulanala clan stays at home, someone will inevitably tell her that at this time, she has not leaked a word in her words, leaving no opportunity to give people a handle, which is really visible in the city.

"The master of Lao Fujin is worried, and the slave is all right. "Although the Ulanala clan treats me as a sister, I can't be so casual and unobtrusive, but still be polite.

You can't speak up, you can't complain, you can't ask for help. In this royal palace, a war between women is going on. There are no eternal enemies, and there will be no eternal friends.

It is not surprising that between the Lee clan and me, the Ulanala clan is more inclined towards me at this time. It's just that I don't know what she wants me to do, and that's what makes me nervous the most, so for me, she's not someone to trust, and I don't intend to be her ally.

The simple response made Wulanala lower his eyes and hook his lips and smile, took a sip of the tea cup from the case, and said when he put it down: "I have a bad body, and I am too lazy to move around on weekdays, I only like to copy Buddhist scriptures and read books to pass the time." It's just that although it is quiet, the diary is inevitably lonely after a long time. I heard that you rarely go out these days when you enter the house, and it seems to be very quiet, so I want you to come and be my companion often. Honghui, this kid likes you very much, and just helps me supervise his studies. You think it's good?"

I wanted to refuse, but in this age of dignity and humility, her consultation was nothing more than a false courtesy, and even if she didn't want to, she couldn't tolerate half of it.

At this time, she stared at me with a smile that did not reach the bottom of her eyes, waiting for my answer, I secretly pursed my lips, hung my head and got up to respond, thinking that this is the case first, and it is not too late to wait for Yinzhen to respond before making other plans.

She stood up satisfied, helped me up, asked me to help her to the front of the Buddhist platform, took a copy of "Myoho-renge-kyo Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva Pumen Pin" from the incense table, handed it to me, and said:

"When you have time and copy this scripture, a few days is June 19, every year this **** and side Fujin, and Song Gege will go to the Great Compassion Temple to live for a few days to burn the scriptures and pray for blessings, in previous years, if the lord is free, he will also go with him, but now the emperor is patrolling the outside of the Sai, although the lord does not need to accompany him this time, but he has to stay in the capital to deal with court affairs, and he can't get out of it for a while. It's inconvenient for you to stay in the house alone not long after you enter the house, so let's go along with you to be a companion. ”

Since he was injured by Yinzhen that day, he has never seen him, and after a long time, he rarely remembers people who have no thoughts. Suddenly mentioning him from other people's mouths, I suddenly felt that I hadn't seen him for a long time.

But none of this is important, the important thing is that you can finally go out of the house to breathe, which makes the boring thing like copying Buddhist scriptures also interesting. Especially since that day the Ulanala clan summoned, the life of the poor began to change suddenly, the people in the treasury became attentive, and the daily expenses were also distributed according to the routine, although there were times when cutting corners and scribbling, but at least the most difficult days were finally passed.

Everyone in the garden finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the previously oppressive and dreary atmosphere was swept away in the morning and night.

The midsummer afternoon was so sullen that people couldn't breathe in the room, so they simply found shade on the stone table under the melon and fruit trellises that were already green leaves and vines, and quietly copied the Buddhist scriptures handed over by the Ulanala clan.

Yun Hui stood behind me fanning me, and her cheeks were stained with a faint crimson color due to the heat. When I finished copying a chapter, I said to her, "It's very shady here, so you can leave the fan and go and rest first." ”

Yun Hui saw that I had put the pen on the table, and hurriedly stepped forward to present the celadon bowl that had been held in my hand for some time.

"This is a sour plum soup stewed with fresh plums that was delivered this morning, and it has been chilled. The master of Fujin said Gege, you love this very much, and specially asked the dining room to prepare it and send it. Speaking of which, it's better to be the master of Fujin, everything is thinking about you, if you know that you went to ask the master of Fujin to be the master earlier, you won't let Gege you also eat the wild vegetables of the little half moon. This time, with the support of the master of Fujin, I see if the side of Fujin dares to kick his nose in the face. ”

Yun Hui is not deep in the city after all, and her life is comfortable, relying on the special care of the Wulanala clan, which makes her feel confident, so the long-standing dissatisfaction with the Li family in her heart also began to overflow unconsciously.

"Hurry up and stop, you girl seems to have been spoiled by me, how can you speak so unruly. If you just say this here, it doesn't hurt, but if you are heard by someone with a heart, you are afraid that there will be right and wrong. Yun Hui can be hot-headed, but I understand it in my heart, so I quickly stopped her over-the-top complaints.

"As the saying goes, if you can't afford to hide, I don't have any big ambitions, I just want to live a few days of rare stability, you really have to give me a stop. I took the sour plum soup handed by Yun Hui, glanced at her, and snorted angrily, which can be regarded as a reminder for them, so as not to cause any trouble for them to get carried away for a while.

"The minions know that they are wrong. Yun Hui saw that I was really angry, and he also knew that he had lost his words, so he quickly made amends for his sins and didn't say anything more.

It's not that I'm too cautious, it's just that there are so many eyes and ears in this house, and I'm afraid that an unintentional word will also make me passive. What's more, in my opinion, the current stability is only temporary, but the people in the Fuchu think that the Ulanala clan looks at me differently and appears to see the wind and rudder. After all, no matter how favored the Li family is, she is just a concubine, and only Chang Fujin is the main lord of this mansion, and she naturally can't treat the people she values too badly.

But this is tantamount to automatically classifying me into the faction of Changfu Jin. If at first Li just wanted me to bow down to her in order to save her lost face, now I am afraid that I will think that I am deliberately helping the Ulanala clan to fight against her. With her character, I'm afraid she won't let go if she doesn't put me to death. If one day, the Ulanala clan suddenly wants to push me out to block the gun, then Lee's new hatred for me will surely make her get rid of me as soon as possible, which is not what I want.

So for me, the current turnaround doesn't bring me the slightest bit of euphoria, but rather makes me more worried that it's just the calm before the storm.
