Chapter 117: Sleepless Nights
Xu Wanzhen chuckled lightly and handed the list she had just written to Mama Zheng, her eyes shining with pride. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoEven if you add the previous life, she is only in her thirties, and she still retains a little childlike heart and longs to be recognized.
Mama Zheng looked at it carefully and praised: "This method is good, how did the young lady come up with it?"
"You know, how can I be a serious manager? At present, everything is a matter, and I will present them one by one, so I am not afraid of missing them. ”
Mama Zheng nodded and said, "In addition to the housekeeper, the daily homework cannot be left behind." Morning exercises, afternoon homework, and evening baths are all indispensable. ”
How can you be busier than modern students these days? Xu Wanzhen sighed, knelt on the table, revealing two big black and white eyes, and said, "Mama, just raise your noble hand and spare me." ”
It's rare to see her playing treasure, Sang Zi laughed out loud, Mama Zheng smiled slightly, and said, "Miss understands in her heart, why bother begging for mercy." ”
The three of them laughed once, and Mama Zheng said with a straight face: "This piece of Chen, Sangzi, you need to put it away, except for the three of us, it can't be known by others." Among them, it involves the young lady's views on many matters, and if it spreads, it will inevitably be a storm. ”
Xu Wanzhen nodded and said, "Well, I didn't want to write it, and the black characters on a white background are easy to leave handles." But now that he is just in charge, he is afraid of losing sight of one or the other. ”
"It's inevitable when you first get started, and when you get used to it, you don't need it anymore. Mama Zheng said.
"Sang Zi, you go and inform the steward of the courtyard, tomorrow, April 18, in the morning, in the flower hall to discuss the matter. In the future, this is the rule, every two days of discussion, if there is an emergency, it will be privately returned. ”
Sang Zi took the order and left.
Mama Zheng had already prepared a medicinal bath, Xu Wanzhen was tired from a day's work, soaked her body in the water with a suitable temperature, and couldn't help but sigh comfortably. Mama Zheng combed her long hair with balm, and said with a smile: "Miss's hair is getting better and better." ”
Xu Wanzhen's hair was already black and soft, but after Mama Zheng's recuperation in the past six months, it became more and more moist and shiny, and it was as smooth as silk satin to the touch.
The night was getting deeper, and after soaking in the medicinal bath, Xu Wanzhen was completely comfortable, and fell asleep with a soft brocade quilt.
The sky is covered by light clouds and the moon, and the lights of the entire "Songxi Academy" are extinguished one after another, and the insects are silent.
However, in a house in the capital, torches as thick as children's arms were lit everywhere, and the lights were bright. With a study as the center, there are constantly men coming in and out, but all of them are equipped with martial arts, landing silently and advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. So busy, yet so quiet, like a mime.
In the study, Shadow Wind sat behind the bookcase. In front of the bookcase was a pile of various books and letters, the right side had been processed, and there were two tall stacks on the left.
At the beginning of him, two cases were opened, and two masters were working hard to write. Men kept whispering in, offering new news.
This is one of the strongholds of the Wind Group, and it will be more than half a year since Shadow Wind left, although there are Wind One and Wind Two to deal with daily news, but most of them still need him to see them in person, so there is a backlog of them.
Returning from the emperor, he handled all kinds of information here. Some only need to be sorted out and filed, some urgently need to be reported to the emperor immediately, and some need to continue to follow up, and he needs to come up with ideas one by one.
Three days later, he had to go to the palace to wait for Emperor Qinglong to announce his appointment, and he didn't know what else would happen, so he planned to deal with the backlog of information before. You know, some news may be useless after a while.
Shadow Wind took a sip of tea, moved his stiff wrist, and said to himself, "It looks like it can be dealt with today." He picked up a letter in his right hand and opened it, his pupils shrank, and he said to himself, "I see." "I simply put the book aside, but a thought arose in my heart, and it was out of control.
Since arriving in Luoyang, affairs have come one after another, and Shadow Wind has been focusing on the affairs of the Wind Group, and has no time to think about other places. At this moment, she stole half a minute of leisure, and Xu Wanzhen's jade face appeared in her mind, her smile, her embarrassment, her high spirits, and her soft lips.
Ying Feng couldn't help rubbing her heart, every time it was like this, it turned out that it was so painful to miss someone?
The pen in his hand snapped into two sections, waking up Shadow Wind. The two masters below glanced at each other, they had never seen Lord Shadow Wind lose their temper like this.
Shadow Wind rubbed her eyebrows and asked, "What time is it?"
One of the masters replied, "Go back to your lordship, it's almost time." ”
Shadow Wind thought silently in his heart: "It's too late tonight, it's better to finish the rest, rest tomorrow, and see her late at night." ”
Keep your mind set and stay focused on the matter at hand.
The sleepless man of this night is more than a shadow wind.
Inside the Yijing Palace, in the garden pavilion.
On several cases of white marble, there are offerings such as fresh fruits and cakes, as well as children's toys such as windmills made of colored paper.
Liu Zhaoyuan, dressed in plain clothes, lit incense and candles with her own hands, lit the paper money on the candles, and put them into the copper basin one by one. The firelight jumped, reflecting her sad and joyless face.
After burning all the paper money, she threw the windmill and other toys into the basin, watching them slowly turn to ashes.
He silently said in his heart: "Child, it is A-Niang who is incompetent and has failed to protect you." Today is the day of your death for nine months. If it's safe, you should be full moon at this time, right? I don't know what kind of toys you like? A-Niang has brought you some of everything, don't be afraid of playing bad, A-Niang will burn it for you again. ”
In the thick of the night, she seemed to see a fat boy giggling and stretching out his hands to her, coquettishly begging her to hug her. Liu Zhaoyuan's hands stretched out in the void, but the tentacles were full of cold air. The bottom of his heart was sour, a tear appeared at the corner of his eyes, a sad look appeared on his delicate face, and a trace of hatred swept through the depths of his eyes.
"Son, you are playing well in heaven. The person who harmed you, A-Niang already has some eyebrows, and she will definitely avenge you. ”
Zi Mo stayed at the edge of the pavilion far away, and it was taboo to worship in the palace. Although it is now a child, the palaces have long been locked and rested. But there are crises everywhere in the palace, and you still need to be careful. If you are not careful, it will lead to a great sin.
After Liu Zhaoyuan finished worshipping, Zi Mo carefully packed up her belongings and followed her into the dormitory.
She sat down at the dressing table, untied the hairpin ring, and her black hair, like a waterfall, fell over her shoulders, lining her unpowdered face, becoming more and more cold as snow. and the woman who danced in the temple that night, they were like two people.
Zi Mo brought a pineapple wooden comb and combed her hair silently.
Liu Zhaoyuan said faintly: "That news, is it true?"
"Indeed, the slave was afraid that the news was wrong, so she confirmed it again and again. Zi Mo replied in a low voice: "Over there in Chunling Palace, two palace maids have died. One was the little palace maid who delivered pulp laundry that day, and not long after the miscarriage of the young lady, she died of a sudden illness. ”
"Well, what about the other one?" (To be continued.) )
