Mama Yu said: "On a rainy day, the mountain is slippery, and the sky is late, if you go back to the city at this moment, I am afraid that it will not be safe on the road." ”

Xiaoxian also nodded on the side and said, "Madam, let's wait until the rain is lighter before going back." ”

Left and right are not in a hurry.

"Look at this rain, I'm afraid it won't stop tonight. Concubine Guo glanced at the rain curtain outside the window, and said lightly: "Rest with me for one night tonight, and go back tomorrow." ”

Feng Jiwen was overjoyed when she heard this.

Ahem, can she say that before the rain falls, she thinks about what excuse she wants to find to stay in Jingyun Nunnery?

In the past, she would often live in Jingyun Nunnery for several days, but now that she is married, it is somewhat inappropriate to rest outside for no reason, even if Jingyun Nunnery is a Buddhist pure land, the concubine will definitely not agree.

So, this rain came at a good time.

Really can afford the word timely rain.

Feng Jiwen listened to Concubine Guan's words, pretended to hesitate for a moment, and nodded again.

In this way, she will not come back tomorrow to continue copying chess games.

If you don't go back to live, you have to send a message to your home and talk to Heshen.

Although they are superficial husband and wife, they still have the most basic etiquette, which saves him from worrying.

Feng Jiwen thought about it, and finally decided to let the coachman slow down on the road, catch an empty car back to the city, and don't have to come over tonight after the message, and come back to pick her and the maids back tomorrow when the rain stops.

Mama Yu asked Xiaocha to help clean up a meditation room where Feng Jiwen used to live.

After arranging these, Feng Jiwen chatted with the concubine for a while. Seeing that the hour was not early, the concubine, who paid attention to the maintenance of going to bed early, opened her mouth to drive people away.

After Feng Jiwen returned to the meditation room, she washed under the service of Xiaoxian. Leaning on the head of the bed and waiting for his hair to dry, he casually took the chess game he copied down today and opened it to read.

She didn't know much about Go, but she copied it down seriously for most of the day, but she felt that the more she pondered, the more interesting it became, especially in the book of the concubine, there were many subtle layouts, and people couldn't help but marvel at the ingenuity of the layouter.

I saw Feng Jiwen open the half of the chess book that had been copied. Xiaoxian was afraid that she would be bored and that her hair would be sleepy if her hair didn't dry out, so she casually found a topic and said, "Speaking of playing chess." The slave maid couldn't help but think of Miss Jin Er, it is rumored that Miss Jin Er has superb chess skills, and she is one of the best among the ladies in the capital. It's hard to find an opponent. ”

"Yes. Feng Jiwen paused for a moment when she heard the action of flipping through the chess game. After that, he returned to normal, and responded casually.

The first talented woman in the capital, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting should indeed be out of the question.

It's just that there are some truths and some falses, and I'm afraid that few people can really understand.

Seeing her expression, Xiaoxian thought that she had said something she shouldn't have said again, and committed the taboo of praising other women in front of her wife.

In the past, before his wife got married, she didn't like Miss Jin Er very much.

It's just that at that time, the wife was jealous of Miss Jin Er's talent and reputation. And she was bent on finding a topic to relieve her wife's boredom, and subconsciously felt that her wife was married now. There will be no jealousy of a girl like Miss Jin Er......

At the moment, it seems that the wife still doesn't like Miss Jin Er.

But she doesn't think that her wife is narrow-minded.

After all, a person like Miss Jin Er, I'm afraid that if I change to any woman, I have to feel jealous, right?

Even she, a maid, is sometimes no exception.

Xiao Xianwu made a summary, and was about to say something to change the topic, but Xiao Cha on the side asked, "Miss Jin Er...... Is it the second Miss Jin who was in Shuchun Garden yesterday?"

"The first talented girl in the capital, how many other Miss Jin Er can there be?" Xiaoxian asked with a smile.

"That slave maid also saw Miss Jin Er yesterday!" Xiao Cha seemed to have suddenly thought of something, but instead of babbling as usual, she lowered her voice and said: "Mrs. was in Shuchun Garden yesterday, and she planned to go back after appreciating the peony, so she asked the slave to find Ziyun Gege to pass a message to her, but when the slave came back, she saw that Miss Jin Er didn't even have a maid by her side, and she entered a rockery alone. ”

She wanted to talk to Feng Jiwen, but she didn't calm down for a while when something like that happened yesterday, and then she was busy scolding Ah Yan, and she didn't have much chance to mention this matter to anyone.

"Why did you hear that Miss Jin Er acted like she was sneaky?" said Xiao Xian in amazement.

Xiaocha said: "I really look sneaky, otherwise why don't you even bring a maid with you?"

It stands to reason that a young lady of Jin Rongyue's status does not have an accompanying maid by her side, which is indeed a little strange.

But that doesn't mean much.

Feng Jiwen listened to it and felt a little strange, but she didn't think too deeply.

It has nothing to do with her.

Xiaocha and Xiaoxian each discussed two sentences, and when they saw that their wives were not too interested, they cut them off.

Xiaocha's mouth couldn't stay idle, and he said another thing.

"The slave maid had just walked out of the rockery not long ago, and she met the eleventh elder brother head-on...... Speaking of this, Xiaocha said with both fear and disdain: "The slave maid saw that the eleventh elder brother was teasing a few maids in Shuchun Garden, and she felt scared at that time, so she bypassed it from a distance. ”

Xiao Xian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then couldn't help but smile and said, "What do you have to be afraid of? If Brother Eleven dares to be rude to you, then he will not be able to get out of bed for ten days and a half months when he is smashed by your fist?"

She was a joke, but Xiaocha took it seriously, "If he wasn't the eleventh elder brother, don't say that he would be fussy about me, just because I bumped into the scene at that time, I will definitely stand up for those maids on the spot, and it will be light if I can't get out of bed for ten days and a half...... But the problem is, he is the eleventh elder brother in the palace. ”

If she really can't control it, the rest of her life will be over.

She's not smart, but she's not lived enough.

Listening to the conversation between the two maids intermittently, Feng Jiwen didn't know what she was thinking. There was a bit of positive color on his face.

"Xiaocha, have you ever told others about this?" Feng Jiwen asked.

Xiaocha didn't know why, but saw his wife's serious appearance without smiling. couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, and shook his head and said, "No, the slave has never mentioned it to anyone." ”

"Then you don't think you've seen it. ”

Xiaocha was even more stunned when she heard this.

What does this mean, wife?

Why pretend you haven't seen it?

She was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the fairy on the side quietly poked her arm.

Xiaocha suddenly came back to her senses, and didn't dare to ask why, but nodded busily and obediently responded to Feng Jiwen's orders.

Left and right is not a big deal, and Mrs. told her to act as if she didn't see it. Then she pretended to have never seen it.

Xiaocha's idea belongs to a typical 'foolish loyalty', regardless of the reason, and obeys the master recklessly. And Xiaoxian is much smarter and more careful in comparison. At first, she didn't think there was anything when she heard Xiaocha say it, but it can be seen that her wife treated her so strictly, and she was at a loss for a short while. Immediately came to me.

Xiao Cha first saw Miss Jin Er enter the rockery alone.

Later, I met the eleventh elder brother not far away......

At first glance, these may sound like two unrelated things.

But if it is...... What about the same thing?

Exactly what it is and what it is not. None of them can say for sure.

But when dealing with things that are involved with the master in the palace, it is always right to be cautious.

But then again, after being inexplicably cheated by Ah Yan, her wife's vigilance is not ordinarily strong......

She's going to have to learn a little bit too.

In the future, no matter how much you have, you have to help your wife have a snack.

The rain was still raging outside the window, and there was still no sign of stopping. Mixed with the sound of whistling wind. The window paper flickered and made a slight sound.

Feng Jiwen put down the hand-copied chess game in her hand. Stretched out comfortably.

My hair is almost dry, it's time to rest.

……

In Yuqing Palace, the lights are still bright at this time, as bright as day.

"Xiao Jiu'er hasn't come here yet?"

He Jing sat on the kang bed by the window in the inner hall, holding a Manchu scroll in his hand, and asked Mama Qi casually while looking at it.

Mama Qi was just about to reply that the ninth princess hadn't come over yet, when she heard a brisk footstep in her ears.

"Seventh Sister!"

He Ke trotted all the way in, came to the side of the kang bed, and hugged He Jing's knee with a smile.

"Be careful, don't bump into it!" He Jing frowned strangely, hurriedly straightened up, put down the scroll and reprimanded while recovering his forehead hair that was wet by the night breeze outside: "How many times have I told you, don't shout, let alone describe the hurry, look at your appearance, where does it look like a princess?"

He Ke shook his mouth when he heard this, and said, "But Concubine Jia often tells me that I want to be more casual, how to be happy." She also said that I was a princess, and no one in the palace dared to accuse me of not knowing the rules—Seventh Sister, isn't that so?"

"Of course not!" and Jing immediately became furious.

Where is this spoiling, this is clearly killing her Xiao Jiu'er!

He Ke was taken aback by her overly violent reaction, and looked at He Jing with wide eyes for a while.

She didn't understand why the seventh sister was suddenly so angry.

But she still grabbed He Jing's hand and admitted her mistake: "Seventh sister, don't be angry, I know it's wrong, I won't be as unruly as Fang Cai in the future." ”

Of course, she also wants to live as casually and happily as Concubine Jia said, but the last thing she wants to see is that the seventh sister is angry with herself.

Looking at the sister of a fellow mother, with a cautious face, for fear that she would be unhappy again, and Jingxinkou felt a sourness that could not be concealed, and her eyes were also very sour.

She held He Ke's soft little palm, looked straight into her eyes, and said almost word by word: "Xiao Jiu'er, you have to remember that in this palace, except for me and my fifteenth brother, you can't trust anyone." No matter how nice they say or how kind they laugh, you can't really believe it, and you can't do what they teach, you know?"

She had never said these things to He Ke before.

All along, she has been ********, trying her best to preserve the simplicity and innocence of her younger siblings, hoping that they can live as easily as possible and not be as depressed and hard as her.

But day after day, she had to admit that in this deep palace, the last thing she needed was simplicity and innocence!

This kind of thing is useless and can even become fatal.

Now what she asks for is pitiful.

She didn't want anything, she just wanted Xiao Jiu'er and her fifteenth brother to live well.

As long as you live, it's better than anything else!

He Ke was shocked for a long time, and only after a long time was he able to speak, but the first thing he said was not to ask why, but: "...... Can't even the Emperor believe it?"

He Jing only felt that he was hit hard by the uncertain eyes of his sister in front of him, and there was a dull pain in his chest.

She didn't know what to say.

He Ke waited for a long time and couldn't wait for her answer, so he didn't ask any more questions, but put his head on He Jing's knees.

"I listen to Sister Seven. The little girl's voice was childish and full of dependence.

He Jing bent down and hugged her tightly, closing her eyes.

When I opened it again, there was no more turbulent fluctuations.

She asked Mama Qi to take off her shoes for He Ke, hugged the kang, and snuggled up to her.

"You want to repay the Feng family for saving your life, I have no opinion, but I told you that the things in the palace are far from being as simple as you imagined - she has her own seventh sister to repay her kindness. How can you be good at asserting and giving her all the jade plates you are close to?" He Jing said with a little displeasure: "Find an opportunity to summon her into the palace in the coming day and take the jade plate back." ”

He Ke, who was leaning next to her, listened a little dazed.

"Seventh sister, what are you talking about?" He Ke was confused and reached for the embroidered bag on his waist: "My personal jade plate has always been on my body, and I have never given it away?"

As he spoke, he took out the yellow jade plate and handed it to He Jing: "Oh, I don't believe you." ”

He Jing took the jade plaque, her brows furrowed slightly.

"Didn't I hear from your personal palace maid that day, you met Feng Shi in front of Jingren Palace and gave her a personal thing?" Until yesterday in Shuchun Garden, she knew that Feng Jiwen had a jade plate in her hand that was similar to that only the princes and princesses had - if it weren't very similar, the two grandmothers wouldn't have confessed their mistakes at the same time.

So she thought that it was a gift from He Ke.

"But that day...... What I gave was just the one I always wear. He Ke replied with a puzzled expression.

How could the seventh sister think that she gave away all the jade plates?

He Jing nodded to indicate that she understood.

But I can't stop thinking about it in my heart.

That jade plate is not Eighth Brother's, nor is it Xiao Jiu'er's.

Was it really just a coincidence?

"Seventh sister, let's go see the fifteenth brother, right?" He Ke took He Jing's hand and suddenly said: "I haven't seen him for a long time, and I really panicked - I dreamed of him last night, and he said that he was bored alone in the elder brother's office, and wanted us to go and see him."
