Chapter 33: Master and Servant Recognize Each Other
"Alas~ Don't worry, Xu'er, come here, I have something to tell you. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Hearing this, she folded back, and I took her hand, and she squatted in front of me. I let go of her and slowly reached for the veil......
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door, "Princess, have you fallen asleep?" Hui'er's voice sounded immediately. My hand stiffened in mid-air, and I gave her a look to open the door.
Su'er got up and walked to the door, opened the door, and asked softly, "The princess hasn't slept yet, what's the matter?"
Pei'er entered the house, walked straight to me, blessed her body, and said, "Ouyang Gongzi asked the slave to invite you over." ā
Ouyang Zhi. Why is he looking for me so late?" I looked up and asked Pei'er, "Do you know what Ouyang Gongzi is looking for me?"
"The slave doesn't know. Hui'er replied truthfully.
I nodded in response and told Hui'er to retreat. Explain that Su'er took me a robe and put it on, and then led Su'er to the east side hall where Ouyang stopped, Su'er walked in front with the palace lamp, the night breeze was a little cool, and the palace lamp was shaking brightly and off, I tightened the clothes on my body, and thought to myself: "This Ouyang stopped playing and disappeared during the day, and I don't know what to do when I look for it at night!"
I yawned, passed through the arch and arrived at the east side hall, Ouyang Zhi's room was lit by the lamp, and I vaguely saw a figure walking around the room, and Su'er stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Please come in. Ouyang Zhi's voice came out of the room.
I motioned for Su'er to wait outside the door, and pushed the door myself into the house. Ouyang Zhi stood with his back to me, his slender figure softening a little under the flickering candlelight.
I closed the door and asked, "What are you looking for me?"
He didn't answer, but turned to me and said, "Sit down and talk." ā
He also sat down, made a cup of tea and handed it to me, and then slowly said, "I have some urgent business to leave for some time, so I'll leave tonight." ā
When I heard this, I asked, "Why is there such a hurry?"
"You don't have to ask about that. During my absence, you'd better not act on your own, it's best to keep your distance from Long Yinxiu, and go to Guanlan Pavilion to find Uncle Hu if you have something, understand?"
"Hmm. How long will you be going?"
"About seven days. ā
As soon as I heard this, half of my hanging heart was put down, and I thought that he was going to go for a month or two, and the explanation was so serious, I suddenly remembered that I had deceived the imperial brother about me for the past five years, so I asked anxiously: "Imperial brother, did he ask how I could be with you?"
"No, I didn't. He looked up at me and asked, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"
I smiled and said weakly, "No, it's nothing, just ask." "Fortunately, the imperial brother hasn't asked yet, it just so happens that Ouyang Zhi is leaving, otherwise I haven't figured out how to deal with Ouyang Zhi in the details, I have thought about it in the past few days when he is away, and I will talk to him when he comes back, so as not to make any mistakes in the inconsistent rhetoric of the two.
When I came back from Ouyang Zhi, I was thinking about how to let Su'er know my identity, but the original plan was inserted in the middle of Ouyang Zhi, which made my brain mess like a mess.
Su'er bent over to make the bed for me, I looked at her, my thoughts became complicated, I can trust Su'er, she grew up with me since she was a child, although she is a palace maid, but in my eyes she is like my sister, I just don't know if telling Su'er my identity will mess her into this whirlpool again, my brain is messed up.
Su'er came over and called me a few times in a row, but I didn't even hear it. Su'er raised her voice and called again: "Princess!"
I was so frightened by her voice that I cried out with an "ah", and Su'er was also startled by my actions, and asked faintly, "Princess, are you okay?"
"No, it's fine. Then he said, "That Su'er, who is the person you care about the most in your life?"
Hearing this, Su'er's body trembled slightly, her eyes lowered, and a pair of small hands pinched the corners of her clothes.
I regretted my words, once upon a time, in Shengwangfu, I was framed by Jiang Yingrou for destroying Long Yinxiu's beloved calligraphy and paintings, and was punished with a cane for twenty, Su'er desperately pounced on me, and took the twenty canes for me, and lay on the bed for more than half a month, I said she was stupid, but she told me with tears in her eyes that the person she cared about the most in her life was me. And now for Su'er, I am already a person who is no longer in the world, and I even asked such a thing, I really want to slap myself twice.
Seeing that Su'er was so uncomfortable, how could I bear to lie to her again, I slowly took Su'er's hand, "Silly girl, you help me lift the veil and see, who I am!"
Su'er was stunned for a moment, and murmured in a low voice: "Princess......" This princess doesn't know whether it refers to the former Princess Lingyang or the current Princess Changfeng, I took Su'er's hand and slowly touched the veil, only to feel that the veil loosened, slipped off the face, and the whole veil fell into Su'er's hand.
I saw that when Su'er saw my face, her breath was suffocated, her eyes were misty, her little body trembled, and she hissed: "Princess......" I know this sound, referring to Princess Lingyang. She threw herself into my arms and sobbed, "Princess, is that you?
I gently stroked her head, my voice trembling softly, "Silly girl, it's me, your princess, I'm back." ā
When Su'er heard this, she cried louder in my arms, and her little body trembled in my arms, "Princess, it's great! You're not dead, it's great! Su'er thought she would never see you again in her life......" She said while crying, tears and snot rubbing against me.
I helped her up and said angrily, "Okay, look at you, tears and snot rubbed me all over!"
When Su'er heard this, she burst into tears and laughed, and pulled up her sleeves to wipe it for me, "People are happy!"
I also smiled and took her hand, "Okay, don't wipe it, just change your clothes." ā
Su'er looked at me in a daze, and without waiting for her to ask, I knew what she was going to ask, so I told Su'er what I told the imperial brother about my experience in the past five years. It's been five years, and it's back again, but fortunately, things are still the same, and some important people are still there.
"Princess, then why don't you reveal your true identity?" asked Su'er suspiciously.
I gently stroked her face, "I still have my own plans for your princess." Will you help me keep it a secret, and you can't let anyone else know who I am, okay?"
Su'er nodded heavily, and said in a firm tone: "Although Su'er doesn't know what you're going to do princess, Su'er will support you, will help you keep this secret, and never tell the second person, otherwise you'll ......" Seeing her swear, I quickly covered her mouth, "Silly Su'er, it's not that serious, believe you." ā
Su'er nodded, as if she thought of something, and said hurriedly: "Princess, you promise Su'er to stay away from the prince, okay?"
I looked at Su'er with a complicated expression, I knew what she was worried about, but my target this time was Long Yinxiu, not only could I not stay away from him, but I had to get close to him. How can I tell Su'er about this, then she is not in a hurry, I smiled slightly, and comforted: "Okay, listen to you, stay away from him." ā
As soon as I finished speaking, I asked Su'er: "How did you get back to Fengchi?
Su'er thought for a while and said, "Princess, after you fell into the moat, the emperor fought a big battle with the prince, suffered heavy losses, and the emperor was also seriously injured. After you died, the side concubine Niangniang began to torture me, once I really couldn't stand it and escaped from the palace, I didn't know where to go, so I went all the way to Fengchi, and finally fell outside Yugu Pass due to physical exhaustion, the guards found me and picked up a life, the slave met the emperor in Yugu Pass, so he was taken back to the palace by the emperor. Su'er said in a tone, her eyes were like a frightened deer, which made me feel distressed for a while.
