The future is to listen to Gege. After bringing Nian'er into the Jingjun Palace, Ning Xi went to beg the King of Jingjun to find Nian'er's mother. After finding it, I learned that the family's surname was Yu, the family was very poor, and the husband and wife were eager to have children. Finally, the wife became pregnant again, but their family could not afford to support two children, so the couple decided to abandon their daughter for the sake of a possible son.

The prince left the money for the family and offered to buy their daughter. The couple happily signed the deed of sale, and Nian'er became a member of the palace from then on.

During those days, Nian'er hated her so much that she felt that the entire world had abandoned her. She didn't eat or drink all day, cried and fussed, and even pushed Ning Xi, who came to persuade her, to the ground. The nurse heard the cry and rushed over, saw Ning Xi fall to the ground, and stretched out her hand to beat Nian'er. Ning Xi hurriedly got up, grabbed the nurse's hand, and only said that she accidentally fell, and it had nothing to do with Nian'er.

didn't care about his bad temper, so he saved himself from a beating, which made Nian'er's cold heart melt. After the nurse left, she knelt down in front of Ning Xi and swore solemnly: "Gege treats me like a mountain, and I will repay you for being a cow and a horse!" ”

"You don't need to be a cow or a horse," Ning Xi helped her up, "as long as you are strong and alive." Your father doesn't want you, you should live a good life and live like a human being, so that they can regret it! ”

Yes, she wants to live, she wants to stand in front of them with a new attitude, and make them regret abandoning her! With this belief, she officially became the big girl by Ning Xi's side, and she did her best to serve Gege every day. Over the years, she has been in and out countless times, but she has never visited her so-called parents. She believes that as long as she is beautiful, she will naturally follow the people around her. This is enough, even if you don't marry for life.

I met Changsheng in the spring when I was ten years old. At this time of year, a new batch of guards will be officially trained. At this time, Gege would always pull himself up and secretly watch them enter the palace in a neat line, and then be assigned to various places. Listening to Gege, they, the deep boudoir women, rarely see this kind of big scene of guards gathered together. After each reading, Gege would always go back to his room and pick up the dagger and look at it for a long time. Nian'er Zhilu said that Gege's dream was to be able to go to the battlefield in person and repel those who coveted the land of the Qing Dynasty.

On that day that year, Gege was taken outside by the prince to practice shooting. Nian'er stayed in Huanxi Xuan alone, remembering the habits of the previous years, she couldn't help but come to the gate of the palace alone - every year, the well-trained guards enter from here.

It was still early, and the guards hadn't arrived yet, so Nian'er hid behind an old tree, peeking at the two people guarding the door from time to time. The two men were expressionless and motionless, like wooden men. Nian'er was bored and fell asleep unconsciously.

Feeling a chill, Nian'er woke up from her sleep. Wet face, is it raining? Raising her head, the gentle drizzle was silently sprinkled, moistening the whole earth and her heart. Looking towards the door, the two wooden figures were still frozen there, as if the rain had never come.

Walking out of the tree without a trace, Nian'er saw something in front of him. Leaning over and picking it up, it's a waist card. Nian'er has been with Ning Xi for a few years, often accompanying her to read, and naturally knows a few words. I saw that it was written: "The last guard, often promoted." ”

The new squire passed by here? recalled the route taken by the guards in recent years, and Nian'er hurriedly ran over.

The guards had already gathered in the guard field, and the prince's personal guard Ah Shun was reading the names one by one, and the guards who were called by name stepped forward and handed over the waist card, which was considered to be a meeting gift. Nian'er tilted her head and looked, feeling a little anxious in her heart, and she didn't know if she was late, and if the guard named Chang Sheng was spotted.

"Ascend!" Thinking like this, I heard the name.

"Yes!" From a distance, a tall young man stepped forward. In a hurry, Nian'er hurriedly shouted: "Chang Sheng, your waist card is here with me!" ”

Everyone looked sideways. The young man who walked to the front hurriedly touched his waist, and sure enough, the waist card was not there, so he looked at her in surprise. She saw the man's delicate face clearly, and her heart didn't move. But she quickly thought of the right thing, and hurriedly made up: "Brother Chang, when I asked you to send something to Gege at that time, your waist card fell off." ”

"Sending something? What to send? Ah Shun hurriedly asked.

"That's right," Nian'er had an idea, "When Gege went out, the dagger fell, so I found someone to send it to Gege, and I met this big brother Chang at that time." ”

"Yes," Chang Sheng agreed, and continued, "I said that I was new here, and that I was not familiar with the whereabouts of Gege and the prince, so I rejected her. The waist card must have dropped at that time, right? ”

"Yes," Nian'er said, "after I picked up the waist card, the person was gone." After reading the waist card, I realized that Lu Dao was new. You must know that I am only responsible for serving Gege on weekdays, except for the guards around Gege, I don't know anything else! ”

"Okay, let's go back when we get the waist card." Ah Shun took the token from Nian'er's hand and threw it at Chang Sheng, "Next, Qin Mu!" ”

"Yes!"

Accompanied by the next person stepping forward, Chang Sheng returned to his original position, and cast a grateful glance at Nian'er, who suddenly had an urge to get to know him.

When Gege returned in the evening, the new guards were also assigned to various places. Nian'er inquired that the guard named Chang Sheng was responsible for guarding the residence of the prince.

After that, Chang Sheng asked the maid beside the prince to send some fruits to Nian'er, saying that the prince rewarded him as a thank you. After that, there was no movement.

Nian'er wanted to see him more and more, so she took the initiative to take over a lot of errands, and even won a lot of opportunities to go together when Gege and the prince were traveling. It's a pity that Chang Sheng is the last guard, and he hardly goes out with the prince. Later, she found out that Chang Sheng's refusal to take over the errand of going out had some unspeakable hardships, that is, the grudges against his family and foreigners mentioned earlier.

In this way, Chang Sheng stood at the door of the prince's residence every day, day after day, year after year, the childishness on his face gradually took off, and he grew into a delicate and upright young man. Among the guards, his martial arts are not the best, his appearance is also average, and he has no sense of presence in the palace. If it weren't for the fact that a few guards in front of him had gone home to retire when they were old, it would not have been his turn to become a mid-level guard. But Nian'er could spot him at a glance from the guards wearing the same clothes. Every day, under the pretext of running errands, stealing a little laziness, and looking at him from a distance has become Nian'er's only pleasure in the palace.

For some reason, such an ordinary guard actually had the opportunity to be transferred to the Dutong Mansion with Gege's marriage, and she was happy for several days when she first heard the news. Later, from Gege's playful eyes, she realized that her careful thinking had long been seen through by Gege.

She believed that Gege would fulfill her, but she didn't want to be reluctant to rise at all. She could see that Chang Sheng's eyes were not half different when he looked at her. The twisted melon is not sweet, she understands this truth.
