Chapter 9: Clever Use of Distancing and Breaking the Intestines (1)
Before the lunch was over, the owner Li Tan fled away like a mountain hermit with little traces. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info left Lin Yueyuan and Li Min who didn't know whether to leave or stay.
But after he disappeared, he didn't forget his life and his father-in-law made amends for him.
Father-in-law Tan put the dust on his arm, bowed down and said, "Return to the princess and girl." His Royal Highness was in a bad mood just now and went to the back hall alone to worship the Buddha, if there is any neglect, please bear with it. His Highness instructed the servants to continue serving the two of them, and if they wanted to use anything, just tell the minions, and the servants would go and tell the kitchenette to do it. Something else. His face tilted slightly to the star who was kneeling on the ground in meditation, indicating that what was going on below had something to do with her.
"The star made a mistake, smashed the dishes, said taboo things, and collided with the princess and the girl, and it was a big thing, and he should be punished. His Royal Highness is indecidable and has a hard time making a decision, so he hereby entrusts this matter to the two of them to deal with it on his behalf, and asks the two judges to show it. After saying that, his waist continued to sink and deepened the arc of his bow as a sign of respect.
In terms of status, Li Min is a princess, more noble than her, and in terms of status, Li Min is half a master, Lin Yueyuan knows the rules, restrains his habitually dominant mouth, glances at her, and waits for her opinion.
Li Min was speechless for a while, and she found that she had long been accustomed to obeying other people's commands, following others' footsteps, and living under the aura of others and in the crowd. When you suddenly pull her out of the crowd and expose her to the eyes of everyone, waiting for her to make a choice and judge like a leader and give orders, she has no pleasure in controlling everything, but hangs her head in shame like an innocent girl who has no clothes to cover her body and is naked in front of people.
At this time, if she recalled that she had made up her mind to save Lin Yueyuan regardless of the danger, she would definitely be surprised, and even feel incredulous. For Lin Yueyuan, bravery is an innate quality, and for her, bravery is just a momentary excitement from external stimuli, and when the peak of excitement subsides, she turns back into the shrunken turtle.
Everyone waited for her to speak, but she was afraid of everyone's eyes in unison, so she lowered her head timidly.
Lin Yueyuan's patience is the most untestable. She leaned down exaggeratedly, put her hand under her nose, opened her five fingers and shook at her, "Speak, you won't fall asleep." ”
Li Min blushed, grabbed her hair, pushed her shoulder and said, "I can't say it well, Sister Yueyuan, you can tell it for me." ”
Lin Yueyuan shrugged her shoulders, stood up generously, she walked in front of Li Min with her hands behind her back, and said solemnly: "Since your princess asked me to dispose of the stars for her, then I will say it." ”
She walked up to the star, looked down at her and said, "Star, rush into the master, treat life and death as child's play, and punish the wall for three days." and copied a copy of the Huayan Sutra and handed it to His Royal Highness for appreciation. ”
The star who was educated by Li Tan has quietly plucked his arrogant heart hanging high in the sky from the sky. She prostrated herself and kowtowed, willing to accept the punishment.
Regarding her sincere attitude of admitting her mistakes, Lin Yueyuan nodded with satisfaction. But when she slanted over the other two palace maids who had almost been forgotten in the corner, and found that they could endure the numbness and pain of kneeling on the ground for a long time, and covered their mouths and snickered quite leisurely, she felt very dissatisfied with their expression of gloating without the slightest guilt and regret.
She stepped in front of them in a few steps, crouched down on one leg, stared at their smiling faces and returned a strange smile that didn't smile: "What's funny, I'll hear it." When they saw her approaching, they looked at each other in panic and knelt up.
Lin Yueyuan didn't change his naughty nature and grinned: "A slap can't make a sound." The two of you know why you made a mistake, although I don't know what the three of you have to do, but I can see the expressions of the three of you when you enter the door. Not only did you two not step forward to stop her, but you also allowed her to almost kill herself in front of the temple. You are convicted! Her tone gradually became more and more severe, and the two palace maids were humb, their faces seemed to be painted with green oil paint, and their bodies trembled like a sieve.
She stood up sharply and reprimanded condescendingly: "Punish the two of you, in the past three days, serve tea and food to the stars, spread paper and grind inkstones, and serve the stars to me like serving your fathers and mothers. ”
Lin Yueyuan solemnly turned around and hugged his fists at Father-in-law Tan and Li Min and said, "I don't know what the two of you think, can the little girl deal with it fairly?" ”
Father-in-law Tan smiled kindly: "The girl's handling is reasonable, reasonable, and the punishment is appropriate, and the slave admires it!" ”
Li Min smiled even more admiringly.
Lin Yueyuan looked up to the sky and smiled with satisfaction: "Full of wine and food, hoeing the strong and helping the weak is really two great joys in life." Hurry, hurry! ”
As soon as these words came out, Gonggong Tan knew that the two were about to leave, so he hurriedly beckoned the eunuch and palace maid to follow him, and personally sent the two to the boat, and watched the ship enter the mist before returning to resume his life. Lin Yueyuan was not so squeamish, and got on the boat and sat on his own. However, Li Min, who had experienced great ups and downs in his emotions, felt slightly dizzy and chest tightness when he stood up and walked, and needed to be served.
The sun sets, the sunset burns, and in the blink of an eye it is dusk.
Before dinner, Li Tan ordered the palace maids to send Shi Fengge and Shuangyanxie the latest fruits from southern Xinjiang and Lingnan, a plate of crystal grapes, and a plate of longan lychees.
Southern fruits are rare and rare things in the north, and they are even more rare to be transported all the way to Chang'an. In this way, it attracted the double swallow pavilion up and down, like watching rare treasures.
For Lin Yueyuan, who grew up in Shu with a warm climate, fertile water and soil, and rich real estate, these fruits are not surprising. So she directly and proudly rewarded these two plates of fruits to the hungry palace maids and eunuchs.
The shrewd Jing'er is not as knowledgeable as the other palace maids in the water pavilion, and her eyes only revolve around the broken fruits that are worthless when they enter the stomach. She could see at a glance that the utensils containing the fruit were the real treasures, one was the ice jade plate, and the other was the silk agate plate.
She saw that the jade plate was more delicate and the material was more superior, and the price was naturally higher.
So she made a small abacus, took advantage of the time when everyone dispersed, pretended to wipe the table where the plates were placed, and pretended to pick up the plates unintentionally, and then pretended to be innocent and ignorant and said to Li Min half-jokingly: "Yo, this plate is really beautiful." After eating the lychee, give it to me. ”
Ya'er, who had always been at odds with her, had been secretly watching her every move, and when she saw Jing'er's greedy eyes, she quietly stayed in the house. Sure enough, as soon as everyone retreated, she was immediately revealed. She couldn't get angry, and shot back loudly in the house: "You are really good at picking, the lion opens his mouth widely." This thing is given away casually. ”
She walked quickly to Li Min's side, glared at Jing'er first, and then hurriedly persuaded: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the palace, I don't know the quality of things, if this jade plate is placed in an ordinary person outside the palace, it will be enough for them to eat for a lifetime." According to our level, even if the palace maid works until death, she can't get so much money. ”
Jing'er saw that the owe was gone and returned, and as soon as she showed up, she gave herself a sentence with a gun and a stick, and she knew that the person who came was not good. But she's not easy to mess with. She gave the other party a vicious roll of the eyes, and when she turned to look at Li Min, she put on a pitiful face that was extremely sincere and kind and was framed.
Li Min was caught in the middle, and she was in a dilemma, but she finally rejected Jing'er's rude request, not because this plate was priceless, but because this plate was something in Li Tan's palace, how could she give it away at will, in order to comfort Jing'er. She also kindly promised her: "If you like plates, I have a good number there, you can choose whatever you want." ”
The spirit who never knows what gratitude is will never allow herself to suffer, even if you are kind to her, as long as it is not her heart, she will want the other party to die. Today, Li Min not only violated her intentions for the first time, but even more excessively, he was even in front of her number one enemy in the water pavilion.
As if she had been insulted, her sentences went straight to Li Min's heart: "I can't give up a plate, Her Royal Highness the princess is really stingy, you see that other princesses are ten million times better than this when they reward their slaves casually." Besides, I didn't care so much about the princess when I gave her jewelry in the past. You say I'm your best friend, your best sister, but you prevaricate me with some. She shook her head, feigned disappointment and sighed sadly.
Seeing her like this, Li Min couldn't bear it, and first begged her for forgiveness with self-blame.
Jing'er blatantly bullied the princess, but forced the princess to make a compromise, and Yao'er angrily stepped forward to protect her, and the fierce counterattack was like a brick and stone thrown at the enemy: "Phew." You are embarrassed to mention that the things you gave to the princess are rags, and you can buy a bunch of them for a few pennies in a street stall, and you have only given it away once as if you were asking for food, but you hang it on your lips every day, as if the princess owes you. For this reason, how many good things did you ask for the princess, and now you dare to ask for the things in the house of the Seventh Highness, and you are shameless. Other princesses are good, but they don't give their belongings to their subordinates, and they never blink when they play slaves, you have to tell me about our princess Her Royal Highness has touched the people in the water pavilion, you black-hearted dog! ”
The essence trembled, and the muscles of the face tensed instantly. She viciously spat out three words: "You wait." Turning to her Royal Highness Princess Li Min, she reminded sinisterly, "Your Royal Highness Princess, do you remember the last time your phoenix hairpin disappeared?" ”
"What phoenix, is it the one that was lost?" Li Min asked suspiciously.
Jing'er's eyes flashed with a vicious light, and she pointed at Yao'er categorically and said sharply: "It's not lost at all, I only saw it in the Yao'er house yesterday, and she stole it." ”
The lungs of the children are going to explode. She blushed with anger, and shouted loudly: "You are talking nonsense, obviously your hands and feet are not clean, and you often steal things outside, but rely on me, I think you are clearly a thief shouting to catch a thief." ”
When Jing'er lied, not only was she not nervous, but she also showed an upright and inviolable momentum, and her voice was twice as high as that of the other party: "I stole it? Hmph, if you don't believe it, let's search it in person. ”
If you meet a timid person and are yelled at by her like this, it is estimated that she will be timid and retreat, but she has the support of righteousness in her chest, and she still fights fearlessly: "Search and rescue, who is afraid of whom, I am not afraid of shadows." ”
Li Min also felt that it was unlikely that Yao'er was a person with unclean hands and feet, so he questioned her for the second time: "Jing'er, Yao'er is usually honest, will you not be dazzled, you are wrong?" ”
Blindly playing ruthless doesn't work, and Jing'er changes to playing the family card. She sobbed indignantly and sadly without tears: "Okay, Your Highness Princess, then you mean that it is not that you steal it, but that I steal it." Would you rather trust an outsider than your best friend and sister? The sad look was like the disappointment of being deeply betrayed by a friend.
This move shocked Li Min at once, and his reason, which was kidnapped by friendship, finally made a compromise. She hesitated for a while, and said to Yao'er: "I, I, Yao'er, if you really steal something, hand it over." It's not that I care about it, it's just that stealing things is not good, so don't do it in the future. The words were reproachful, but apologetic.
No matter how superb Jing'er's acting skills are, she can't perform the shock and despair in her eyes. She looked up and laughed twice, and when she looked at Li Min again, her eyes were already full of tears. She shook her head and said word by word, "Your Royal Highness Princess, you are so confused!" I'm so honest with you, why do you believe that villain's nonsense over and over again. It's strange that they all say you're stupid, you're so stupid, you deserve to be cheated on. With that, she covered her face with a handkerchief and resolutely rushed out the door.
