Chapter 7: The Change of the East Palace 3

With the voice, the virtuous concubine was leading a group of palace people from the direction of the imperial study. She was born gentle and generous, and her demeanor carried the dignified lady of a Jiangnan woman. At this time, although it was dyed with a thin layer of anger, it did not make people afraid at all.

"Sister!" When the little county lord saw the virtuous concubine, he threw himself into his sister's arms and cried, "These subordinates are so useless that they almost killed Jin'er." ”

Hearing the county lord like this, although it was a cold day, everyone's foreheads were covered with a layer of fine beads of sweat. didn't dare to refute, so he had to kneel on the ground and kowtow again and again: "Slaves deserve to die." ”

The virtuous concubine didn't look at her sister, but just ordered everyone to get up first, but these palace people just hung their heads tremblingly, and no one dared to move. After a while, the little eunuch led by him was worried and said: "Virtuous concubine Niangniang, the servants are negligent, and the county lord will climb onto the roof." When she stepped on the air and fell, Miss Qingluan caught the county lord with her body, and she was unharmed. ”

"Nonsense!" When the woman heard this, she pushed the girl in her arms coldly and scolded angrily, "Why are you so stubborn, if something happens, you don't reflect on yourself and blame others." ”

Sister Zhilu Dao refused to help her, and the county lord immediately jumped out of a big step, muttering with a look of displeasure. "These subordinates should serve their masters well, and it is also their duty to save me, why did my sister excuse a group of subordinates."

"Who taught you to be so blind! Palace people are also people, and they also have family members, why should they sacrifice their lives to save you. is so rude at a young age, and he will pay it back later. The virtuous concubine's face turned pale with anger, and the maid beside her patted her vest again and again to smooth her.

"Come on, take the county lord back to reflect on it, and confine it for three days. If you dare to do this in the future, you will come to the palace to inform the emperor and withdraw your title of county lord. ”

Seeing that his sister was furious, the county lord no longer dared to speak wildly, and was taken down by the palace people crying. At the end, he didn't forget to glare at everyone fiercely.

Qingluan has been in the palace for three years, and it is the first time he has seen such a master who speaks for his subordinates, and he can't help but look up at the virtuous concubine. Her weak willow-like body looks thin, but a touch of righteousness between her eyebrows is really eye-catching. I can't help but feel a warmth in my heart.

After reprimanding her sister, the virtuous concubine walked up to Qingluan and helped her up with her own hands. "There is Miss Lao today, and it is because of the lax supervision of the palace that this farce happened, and the girl was almost injured." She turned around and ordered her personal maid Yishuang to take Qingluan down to receive the reward, but as if she couldn't stand the cold, she wrapped her clothes tightly and walked towards the palace gate.

"Mother." Seeing that the virtuous concubine was about to step into the palace gate, Qingluan's mind was hot, and she stopped the woman, "The slave maid is like the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva, and her heart is extremely kind. It is a blessing for the slave and maid to be able to see it today. Please forgive Qingluan for having the courage to thank the people of Xining Palace for her mercy. ”

The virtuous concubine who was supported by the maid smiled modestly, although she didn't say much, but it made people feel that March was warm.

The subordinates beside him also stood up one after another, all with grateful expressions. Yishuang stood in the middle and said with a half-smile: "That is, you have such good luck when you meet a master like the virtuous concubine Niangniang, if you were someone else, you would be here today." ”

The palace maids and eunuchs responded again and again, and they were all secretly glad that they had picked up this little life.

The virtuous concubine is really good at the palace, so those subordinates who are born in Baoyi will also be sincere to her. Even if he is not from Xining Palace, he still treats the virtuous concubine with courtesy.

Qingluan saw Emperor Jin first, and then met such a master again, and finally felt that there was still some humanity in the harem, and the previous unhappiness was swept away. It turns out that no matter how changeable the world is, if you don't lose yourself, there will still be a pure land in your heart.

"Don't go, girl, you haven't gone to receive the reward yet."

"No need." Qingluan was deeply blessed, "Qingluan can meet Niangniang at this time, which is a great reward." ”

Her heart was happy, and her steps were cheerful. I only feel that the previous hazy weather has cleared up, reflecting the blue tile red wall has a special interest. said that he was going to find a violinist, but in fact, he didn't know where he lived. It's just that at this hour, you can always hear the faint sound of the piano in the imperial garden, like the flowing water of the mountains, and like the sound of heaven. When I first heard it, I only felt that the aftermath was lingering in my ears, and my heart was comfortable. After revisiting it repeatedly, I felt that the sound of the piano seemed to have infinite deep meaning, melancholy, sadness, or sighing, and thousands of emotions were contained in it.

Qingluan thought that there should be very few people with such piano skills in this palace, so he walked in a fixed direction. She remembered her initial joy, because she loved music, and occasionally composed some intentional or unintentional words embroidered on the silk handkerchief, and after a long time, she sang it unconsciously.

Su E once said that this song was really good, but he couldn't ask where it came from anyway. After a while, when he was itching, he also took out the flute to harmonize, so that one high and one low, one tactful and one smart, the tune seemed to be natural, quiet and long.

She thought that if she could find a blue-faced confidant in the palace, she would have no regrets.

I just want to meet a confidant, and I don't dare to ask for anything else. Such a man with slender fingers and soft eyes will make people feel at ease, as if the entire splendid rivers and mountains have been injected into the strings, allowing him to play out the gorgeous scenery that stretches for three thousand miles.

Approaching the Imperial Garden, Qingluan suddenly slowed down. She only cared about the beauty of the harmony of the strings, but forgot what to say when they met, or maybe the person who played the piano was not him.

"Why didn't anyone come to Hequ today, it turned out that people had already arrived."

Originally, I had a long memory this time, and I didn't dare to break out of the city recklessly to meet any big people, so I secretly hid behind the rockery. Unexpectedly, the people in the pavilion had already noticed it, and they were looking at the woman behind the mountain with interest.

He was still dressed in white, and when the sound of the piano was raised, his clothes flew up, and he was shocked by the dust.

Qingluan's face turned red, but he had already walked out, and when he stood in front of him, he looked at him almost upward.

"Why are you so embarrassed?" saw the pianist frown. Only then did he realize that he was in a hurry, and he didn't notice that his skirt was torn when he fell, and his left wrist was also soaked in blood. At this time, the man saw it, and he felt a little remorseful in his heart, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "When I came, I met the virtuous concubine and the little county lord, and something happened to me. ”

"No one is embarrassed for you."

"No," the woman looked up and smiled like a flower, "the virtuous concubine is really a very good person." ”

"Well, she is indeed worthy of the word 'virtuous', and she is also excellent in the reputation of the next people. It is precisely because of this that the emperor ......, and the emperor loves her very much. After all, in the virtuous concubine, you can stay away from the battle between right and wrong and get a kind of tranquility. ”

"You seem to know the emperor very well?" Qingluan tilted his head sideways, but there was no doubt in his eyes, "You must have a good relationship." ”

The violinist smiled gently, and his eyes seemed to be filled with a slow sun. He didn't make a sound, just plucked the strings, and the melody of flowing water suddenly lingered in a corner of the square pavilion. Qingluan could hear that this time the tone was smart and high, just like the cloudless sky at that time.

"But in the palace, you still have to pay attention to everyone, the people here are like plays."

Qingluan couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, "What you and Concubine Jin said are surprisingly similar." ”

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and this time it was the man's turn to be surprised. He put down his hand and asked with some disbelief, "Why, you also have a relationship with that person?" ”

"Nod your head. It's just talking. ”

She didn't see the worry flashing in the violinist's eyes, and only heard the man say teasingly: "It seems that the emperor is right, he really underestimated you." ”

"Okay, what's the matter today?"
