Chapter 108 XIII
The buildings on the private estate are not the same as those of the bustling and magnificent Seoanseong, except for one of the more elaborate courtyards for the owner to visit occasionally. In the others, after being built half a person high with stones, wooden planks were used as the base, and then wood was used to build a living space on the top, and the bottom was used as a place to store miscellaneous goods.
The houses are large and small, because there are also several families living together in the private village, so in their spare time, the noise of children, the shouts of women who are a little sharp but also full of love, the barking of cattle, sheep and poultry, and even the sound of the wind blowing through the mountains and forests in the distance, the sound is in the ears, not noisy, and there is a peaceful and peaceful scene.
At this time, it was noon, the smoke rose everywhere, and the water slave walked slowly, little by little, he saw these scenes that he had never experienced before, whether it was from the perspective of the princess when he was in the palace, or from the perspective of the slave when he was in the Yin family, this kind of cooking smoke curled up, and the quiet life of living and working in peace and contentment was unfamiliar to her.
Inda followed her in silence, and the water slave pushed open the door of the room and looked around.
When I pushed the door, I saw one of the main halls, which contained very few things, except a low table and a few beds. The room on the left is also a panoramic view - a bed with an old and clean tent on the couch, a storage cabinet next to the bed, a yellowed carpet on the floor, and nothing else. The one on the right cannot really be called a room, because there is only a bamboo screen separating it from the main hall, and then there is only a bed and locker without a tent.
The small space is even narrower after being divided into three rooms, but the water slave walked in quite satisfied, looked back and saw Intian's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, sighed, and closed the door with her backhand after she walked in.
"Thirteen have seen Her Royal Highness Princess Dongyang!"
"Excuse me!" Sima Junbi turned around, looked at her for a moment, and sighed, "It's good to be safe, I'm just a maid of the Yin family at this time." And in the future, you must not be so polite. ”
Yintian, the thirteenth guard she cultivated without telling everyone, the last one, and the only one who survived the catastrophe that Li Lingrong suddenly launched. However, after he fell into the water, he was separated from her.
Because Tian refused to get up, he still bowed his head and confessed: "The servant guarded poorly, so His Highness will be exiled here, please punish Your Highness." ”
"It's none of your business. Li Lingrong's sudden attack was something I didn't expect, and I did my best. Thinking of the twelve guards who died, Sima Junbi sighed.
Looking back, seeing that Yin Tian was still full of remorse, kneeling on the ground unmoved, Sima Junbi suddenly said, "Yin Tian, this palace has something to inquire about, get up and talk back." ”
Because Tian was excited, he reflexively stood up. It seems that at this moment, Sima Junbi has become the once proud and noble princess again. Not the smiling water slave she had seen all the way before.
"Sit down. Sima Junbi suddenly said again.
"Princess?" Intian's face was full of embarrassment, "This ......"
"I've been someone else's maid for a long time, and I'm not used to looking down at people. Sima Junbi sat down on one of the hu beds and said indifferently, "But it's quite tiring to look up your head." ”
When Yin Tian heard this, he looked at Sima Junbi with a frightened expression, as if she had said something big. How could Her Royal Highness the former princess ever utter such words that could be called a joke? so unattainable that she was so holy that she didn't even dare to look up and look closely.
Maybe the water slave herself didn't realize it, what she said about wanting to learn to be a good servant girl was not a joke or just talking, as early as after Yin Nuan was affected again and again because of her "dignified elegance", she really subconsciously lowered her posture. Look at people and things from an equal or lower point of view.
But maybe because she doesn't have that deep-rooted servility, she is going in a direction that is more and more different from others.
Carefully sat down on the Hu bed, and Intian still said with a respectful face: "Whatever the princess and princess want to ask, the maid will definitely know everything." ”
Sima Junbi said: "When did you enter the Yin family?" But when Rong Liu dies or sooner?"
"Back to the princess, the maid entered the Yin Mansion three days before that, because the concubine of King Xin'an has been secretly tracking down the whereabouts of the princess, and the maid is also being targeted, so she doesn't dare to recognize each other rashly. ”
"That's it. Sima Junbi nodded, "When Sister Rong Liu was scolded by the cane." The person who secretly went to tell Chunxiu is also you?"
"Back to Princess, yes. ”
Yin Tian was not surprised that Sima Junbi could guess this, after all, no matter what Her Royal Highness the princess has experienced or become, she is still the princess with a beautiful heart.
At that time, she had just sneaked into the Yin family, and although she didn't dare to recognize Sima Junbi, she was also secretly paying attention. Then I found that the princess had a good relationship with the maid named Rong Liu, so she went to inform the people of Shuyan Pavilion when Rong Liu was scolded by the cane.
Sima Junbi nodded, and then she asked, and found that the person who was notified at that time was not familiar to the people of Si Yuan, so she carefully asked about the appearance of the person who came to Chunxiu, etc., even if it was not determined at the time, and later connected one by one, it was certain that the person was Yintian at that time.
"In this way, you were the one who burned down the courtyard of the Yuan clan and diverted the tiger from the mountain at that time?"
"Back to Princess, yes. Inda suddenly got up and knelt down, "The maid didn't appear in time at that time, and the tired princess suffered many punishments, please punish the princess?"
After Rong Liu's affair was over, she finally found the clues of the fine work sent by Li Lingrong to monitor her, and led the other party out of the Yin family, and later found out that Her Royal Highness the Princess and Yin Nuan were healthy. When she finally got rid of Li Lingrong's surveillance with the other party and returned to the Yin family, she learned that Her Royal Highness the princess had been arrested and put in a private prison, and even suffered such a severe punishment.
"It's over, and you don't have to blame yourself too much. Sima Junbi said, "Besides, you appeared in time at that time, didn't you?"
After all, if you really put that soldering iron on your body, I'm afraid that no amount of resentment will help.
Seeing that although she was injured but still pale, Inda knew that she might have fallen to the root of her illness after this punishment, and her heart was even more sad, guilty, and uneasy and other feelings surged together, and she blamed herself so much that she almost wanted to apologize with death.
She knelt persistently, and Sima Junbi was also quite helpless: "You get up first, the palace still has important things to tell you." ”
Because Tian Fang stood up and remembered that she said that she was tired of looking up at people, she carefully sat down on the Hu bed.
"Princess, please command. ”
Sima Junbi said: "Let's not talk about this first, do you know that this palace didn't plan to keep you here at the beginning?"
"Yes. Inda nodded, which was also what she was puzzled about, "But the princess wants her maid to stay by the Yin family's Golangjun side to help?"
But even if it were, it wasn't more important to Inda than staying with Her Royal Highness to keep her safe.
Sima Junbi nodded and said, "Yes and no." (To be continued.) )
