Chapter 2 Eaves Corners
The prince, who was still swallowing the sugar cake, was shaken by the sudden evil star, and really choked, coughing slightly, Mei Rui was anxious, but she knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move, Baoxiang Jinhua shook in her afterglow, walked to the table in a little hurry, hugged the little prince, and the sleeves of the large vulture brocade hung down on the ground.
He combed his sideburns very neatly, and the gold leather brought in the virtuous crown lined his side face with his own majesty, and the bridge of his nose was straight and his eyebrows were like mountains, and he was a top-notch beauty. Mei Rui listened to the little prince still coughing while peeking at it, but the beauty had already opened her mouth: "What is Your Highness eating?" β
The prince seemed to be in awe of him, or maybe he couldn't speak because he was choking on the sugar cake in his throat, his face was flushed, his short arms waved up and down, Lu Zhi hugged him, thought for a while and said, "Your Highness wants to drink water?" β
The little prince nodded violently, but Lu Zhi said in a slow tone: "What the minister said to His Highness, His Highness doesn't remember?" The little prince only had to nod, looking at Lu Zhi pitifully, Lu Zhi chuckled: "What is in His Highness's arms?" β
In the arms? The little prince buried his head and looked at it, and found that a corner of oil paper was exposed from his chest, and he ate two of the three pieces of sugar cake that Mei Rui gave him, and when he was eating the last piece, Lu Zhi came in, and he quickly wrapped the sugar cake back into the oil paper and stuffed it into his arms, but he didn't expect to be caught by the sharp-eyed protector. But he was choking at the moment, coughing so badly that his eyes were red, pitiful. Lu Zhi hugged him to sit on a square chair, and then knocked on the table: "Why don't you pour water for the prince quickly." β
The people next to him were kneeling in the outhouse, and Mei Rui was the only one here, Mei Rui answered in a low voice, and stood up with her head buried. She wanted to pour water for the prince before, but the water had already been poured in the cup, so she picked up the blue and white cup with both hands, bent her waist slightly and handed it over: "Your Highness, please use it." β
The cup was taken by a pair of bony hands, and the man carefully avoided her hands, and did not touch her, Merry felt a little disappointed for some reason, but in the next moment her disappointment was completely dissipated.
As soon as the man's wrist flipped, the water in the cup was spilled out, and some fell into the charcoal basin, which was burning hotly and turned into a curling mist, and Mei Rui heard him say in front of him: "Chen Shui also dares to bring it to His Highness to drink?" Don't you know how to pour a new glass? β
His voice is clear, and he doesn't speak quickly, giving people a sense of coercion at ease, Mei Rui has always heard of the prestige of this protector, even if the other party makes trouble unreasonably, she doesn't want to collide with others, unless she doesn't want to die.
She lowered her eyelashes and said softly, "What the Lord said is that the slave was negligent. After that, he went to the pot again to pour water, and when the water poured out of the spout and poured into the cup, the man spoke again: "The literature museum is far away, but I didn't expect it to fall into education like this, and the female bachelors in this museum have never taught you the rules?" β
Mei Rui silently grinded her teeth, held the teacup filled with half a cup of water, and offered it with both hands, and bent her eyes and smiled: "Lord Hui, a certain talent, it is the female bachelor of the Literature Museum." β
Lu Zhi raised his eyes and took a serious look at her, this dynasty emphasizes literature and history, and even the harem also has a lot of literary style, so the emperor placed the position of female bachelor in the literature museum, specializing in the calculation and reading of people in the harem, and teaching etiquette. But there is a Shangyi Bureau at the end of the teaching etiquette, and a female bachelor in Meirui District is naturally not as good as those aunts and grandmothers who are well versed in the palace rules, and she is simply happy, and occasionally those palace people who want to read come to look for her, she will come to teach, and more often she hides in the library to read books.
She is probably a person from Jiangnan, and there is the gentleness of Jiangnan smoke and rain between her eyebrows, but she is not like those concubines in the palace, all of them have a brute hair, black paste lips, and a sad appearance of low eyebrows 1, and the heavy corolla is pressed on her head, as if she is crumbling when she acts. She is born with a good appearance, her eyebrows are green, she has her own romance in her arms, and she is a light and light person, like a plum that blooms at the water's edge in the light and shadow of the oblique moon.
Looking at the eyes again, the hands holding the teacup, the blue and white flowers bloomed between her fingers, Lu Zhi was in a trance, settled down again, took the teacup from her hand and fed the prince a sip of water, and then said lightly: "I thought that the ignorant was innocent, but now it seems that he committed it knowingly, in this case, you can't afford this bachelor's errand, go and get the punishment." β
Then he took the relieved prince and walked away, and a large group of people who had followed him in before also followed him out, and the time and space in the literature hall came out in an instant, and the people who didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere before were now considered alive, and they all surrounded Mei Rui, gossiping, asking the same thing.
One person said: "The bachelor was relieved of his errand by Lu Hujun because of such a trivial matter?" The Protector is really too fussful, and the glass of water is not necessarily how cold it is, why did it make him unhappy, I'm afraid that if it wasn't for the Bachelor, you offended the Protector in the past, and he came to find trouble to suppress you. β
Mei Rui couldn't help but laugh: "When did I offend him?" Probably I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out today, and it was written that everything was inappropriate. β
Everyone said regretfully: "Then you have been punished like this, who should be in charge of this literature museum in the future?" β
Someone else snorted and said, "Is this the most important thing now?" It's clear that the bachelor has to be punished, this cold winter moon day, either the bell or the board 2, how can the bachelor stand it? β
So she began to worry again, Mei Rui waved her hand meaninglessly: "It's okay, I was negligent, I should be punished, the guards only unloaded my errand, but forgot to assign me to another place, I just had a few days of leisure, the days are getting colder and colder, and it is so cold that it is difficult for me to get up." β
"Hey, bachelor, you're just too wide-hearted, if this punishment falls on someone else, you'll be red-eyed early, it's not a child's play!"
"I'll save it," Merry said with a smile, rubbing her hands together and saying to everyone, "since I've been removed from my errand, I won't stay here, and I have to follow the words of the landing escort to receive the punishment, you cherish." β
Everyone was very reluctant, and a palace maid pulled her sleeve and said, "That book has not been finished with the slave maid, is this going to leave?" β
Mei Rui was a little helpless, but the little palace maid's expression was very stubborn, which touched a certain string in her heart, she softened her expression and said, "You can bring a book to my house to find me, and I will continue to speak for you at that time." β
"Really?" The little palace maid said in surprise, Mei Rui remembered that her name was Yunyu, and this name matched Huaizhu very well, she smiled, "Naturally it's true." β
Yun Yu was extremely happy to make a gesture to her, and said in a straight voice: "The student meets the masterβ"
The people in the literature hall laughed, Mei Rui also laughed, and after saying goodbye again, she walked into the court, and the grandmother who was in charge of the punishment saw her, and she was surprised: "Why is Master Rui here?" β
The names of her in this palace are all messy, Rui Rui, Mei Fuzi, Rui Bachelor, there is a doctor in the hospital, I don't know what kind of bells and whistles she is, I call her Xiao Rui Rui in private, and teach her to be angry and funny. She smiled very kindly and said to Mama: "Mama has tormented the slave maid, and the slave and maid are here to receive punishment." β
When she said this, Mama was even more surprised: "Receiving the punishment, what punishment?" β
She told Mama what happened, and Mama belched: "Master Rui, it's not that the old slave said you, what did you do badly, you have to die in front of the protector." That's a man-eating ghost! You see, the emperor has been eaten by him now, and there is no energy left. β
Mei Rui smiled bitterly: "What kind of punishment does the slave have to receive?" β
Mama rolled her eyelids and said, "Just put it on the board, but it will have to take a few days, and now the palace is busy, who can take care of these little things." According to what the old slave said, Master Rui, you should have done this thing, so as not to suffer from this, the Lord Protector is busy with daily affairs, how can you care if you really come to receive the punishment? β
I didn't expect to be able to fish in troubled waters in this matter, Mei Rui thought about it for a while and felt that it was feasible, but it was not appropriate to let others do such a big favor for her, so she took off the jade bracelet hanging in her hand and handed it to Mama: "You have been looking really good lately, and the water color of this jade is very good." β
Mama said that she couldn't help it, but she still put the bracelet into her sleeve very naturally, squinted her eyes and said to Mei Rui: "What Master Rui said is true? The old slave looks really good? β
"Naturally," Mei Rui pinched her empty wrist and owed her mother, "Mother is still busy, so the slave won't bother you." β
"Eh, okay, I often come to talk to the old slave when I have time, Master Rui."
"Definitely, definitely."
In this way, she escaped the catastrophe, but the errand on her shoulders was gone, and she became an idle person in this palace, the cold wind was bitingly cold, and the sky obscured by the clouds was so white that it was about to snow.
She put her hand in her arms and walked back slowly, Huaizhu was still at Concubine Rong's place and did not come back, so she took off her shoes and socks and lay down on the couch, fell asleep in a daze, and when she woke up, it was already dark.
Mei Rui touched her stomach and turned up from the couch, she slept all day, she didn't eat lunch, and now her lower stomach was empty, and she was really wolf. This reminded her of the most important thing, now that she has no errands, where should she eat?
It's an existential matter.
She was thinking about whether to go to the Literature Museum for a while to eat with a thick skin, the door was pushed open, and a figure in a green jacket pounced on her, hitting her chest with a dull pain, she rubbed her chest and frowned, but Huaizhu had already begun to wipe her tears: "Good Ruirui, have you been bullied?" β
