Chapter 533: Ridicule
Rong Xi and Leng Yixiu had just walked near a small garden in the backyard of the Qi Palace, when they saw the lights shaking, the footsteps sounded slightly, and two people came over with lanterns.
The eyebrows of the two people were gathered in the dim candle flame, the girl in front did not know the ring, but the two people in the back clearly saw a familiar face.
Rong Xi raised her lips and smiled slightly, looking at Rong Qiu's whole body dress, she knew that she was definitely not going to do anything good, the smug color in the corners of her eyes was like a ray of light shining on the flowers in the early morning, bright and compelling, the jewelry on her head and the dress on her body were carefully dressed, right? In the middle of the night, in addition to tempting Leng Yiwei, he also watched other women's jokes.
And if you go to find Leng Yiwei, you should swagger and walk the avenue in the mansion with your head held high, how can you appear in such a remote place and meet yourself unexpectedly when you visit the palace at night? How could it be such a sneaky gesture?
Rong Xi thought about it, pulled Leng Yixiu's hand, and motioned for him to catch up with him, Leng Yixiu shook his head with a cold face, he felt disgusted when he saw Rong Qiu's face, thinking about what he had done before, the more he wanted to slap himself a few times.
Rong Xi pursed his lips and smiled, his fingers gently swept his palm, his eyes were soft, so that Leng Yixiu couldn't bear to refuse again.
Rong Qiu carried her skirt, Lian Qi carried a lantern in front, observed the surrounding situation, and walked forward cautiously, finally, I saw a courtyard from a distance, surrounded by a lot of peony flowers, although it is not the season for peony to bloom now, but the branches and leaves are luxuriant, and you can also imagine the scene of flowers blooming before.
A line of eaves obliquely flies out, in this night like spreading wings, picking out smooth and graceful lines, you can imagine that when the morning glow is in the sky, the light of thousands of Ruicai, here must be beautiful like a picture.
Rong Xi snorted coldly, the light in his eyes was cold and vicious, "This slut actually lives in such a good place!" The prince really loves her. ”
Lian Qi hurriedly echoed: "Madame is very right, if you say that the slut is just a concubine, and if you say that Potian is just the daughter of a deputy general, how can you be compared with Madame?" She actually ...... once."
Lian Qi didn't say what she said later, she stopped her mouth, pursed her lips tightly, she lowered her gaze, and her face was silent in the hazy candle flame.
"What else?" Rong Qiu looked sideways, her eyes were cold, she intuitively felt that what was behind it was not a good word, but Lian Qi couldn't help but say it anymore, the anger in her heart was three points more angry than hearing Lian Qi say it.
"Slave maid ......" Lian Qi's neck shrunk, "Slave maid didn't dare to say." ”
"What don't you dare!" Rong Qiu raised his eyebrows, like a hanging knife, and said coldly: "She dares to say, why don't you dare!" ”
Concubine Zuo said...... "Lian Qi's voice is like a mosquito," she said...... Although she is the daughter of a deputy general, her father's official position will one day be promoted, and you, madam...... Your identity as a concubine will not change until death in this life. Therefore, it is not yet known who will have a higher status in this palace in the future. ”
Although Lian Qi's voice was small, it pierced Rong Qiu's heart like a sharp needle, and the pain and anger came like raindrops, engulfing her in an instant.
Identity has always been Rong Qiu's hidden pain, in her opinion, if it weren't for the fact that she was the daughter of a concubine, she was a little different from Rong Xi in terms of identity, she would have been the one who should have married Leng Yixiu, if it weren't for the fact that she was the daughter of a concubine, Leng Yiwei was the palace to ask for a decree, although the emperor agreed at the time, but in the end she could only let her sit on the position of a side concubine.
And this qiē is all because she is just the daughter of a concubine.
She thinks like this, but she can't allow others to think like this, and anyone who brings up any topics such as concubines is like touching her scales.
Her eyes were fierce, staring at the courtyard fiercely, and she said in a cold tone: "She really said that? ”
"Exactly," Lian Qi hurriedly said, "The slave doesn't dare to lie." ”
"That's good," Rong Qiu nodded, the light in his eyes flashed, "Let that slut take a good look tonight, in this palace, who is in charge now." ”
Lian Qi bent down again, holding the lantern in front of him, and walked forward quickly.
She hung her head, her eyelids drooped to block the look in her eyes, and she only cared about the angry Rong Qiu but didn't notice the sneering light in her eyes.
And Lian Qi's expression clearly fell into Rong Xi's eyes.
The master and servant walked towards the front, Rong Xi and Leng Yixiu did not move, watching them walk away, Rong Xi said in a low voice: "This girl ring, it doesn't seem to be simple." ”
Leng Yixiu nodded and said: "That's true, this girl seems to be timid and cautious, but in fact, those words are extremely clever, always inadvertently causing Rong Qiu's anger." ”
"Yes," Rong Xi's eyes had a hint of a smile in his eyes, "It seems that this Qi Palace's mansion is very lively, we have to have a good visit, let's go." ”
"Still following?" Leng Yixiu frowned slightly, "Rong Xi ......"
"Huh? I don't mind, what do you mind? Rong Xi raised his eyebrows and smiled.
Leng Yi cultivated the qi knot, and let her hold her hand and move forward.
Rong Qiu stood still in front of the courtyard and gave Lian Qi a look, Lian Qi immediately understood, she took a few steps forward, raised her hand and prepared to knock on the courtyard door, but she didn't think about it, but with a slight force, the courtyard door opened by itself.
Lian Qi looked back at Rong Qiu in some surprise, then turned his head and picked up the lantern, shining inside, there were no lanterns in the courtyard, it was dark, only the faint light that flowed out of the window, reflecting the dark shadows of the trees and flowers in the courtyard.
Rong Qiu said in a low voice: "Go in, what are you afraid of?" ”
Lian Qi pursed her lips, slowly stepped forward, and stepped over the threshold, the lantern in her hand cast a faint light and shadow on the ground, fluttering like a heart raised at this moment.
Zuo Qinglian was lying on the beauty couch on her side, her eyes were slightly closed, the makeup on her face had already been spent, and the tears that flowed out left traces on her face.
She felt a tingling pain in her eyes, as if all the tears of this life had flowed, she didn't know why things had become like this, the strength of her body seemed to be taken away, how much she wished, a qiē was just a dream, but when she opened her eyes, the traces of love on her body were still clear and dazzling after she had taken a few baths, like a cold and hard needle, piercing her eyes fiercely.
Zuo Qinglian was soft, breathing weakly, lifeless, like a withered butterfly that was about to lose its life in late autumn.
The light in the room was dim, only one lamp was lit, and the delicate ornaments on weekdays were just dark shadows at this time, silent and cold.
Those maids had already been sent out by her, and it was silent at the moment, and she could only hear her own breathing in a trance.
The floor of the room was a mess, and the mirrors, combs, tea cups, and some jewelry were all slammed to the ground by her, and the fragments shone with a cold light, and they came out with a forest aura, like the mouth of a giant beast that opened in the night, revealing its fangs.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a light footstep, and a light floated in.
Zuo Qinglian seemed to suddenly have a burst of strength, she struggled to sit up, her eyes flashed with hope, she hoped from the bottom of her heart that she could see Leng Yiwei walking in from outside the door, looking at her with concern, even if she didn't say anything, just one look was enough.
Then, the ring in front of the head hung down, and behind it revealed a gorgeous skirt, which slid over the threshold like a warm and greasy sound, which was clearly audible in the dark night, precious and beautiful.
Zuo Qinglian's breathing stagnated slightly, and the hope in her eyes also became cold inch by inch, she straightened her waist, and grabbed the brocade quilt on her body with both hands, slippery and cold.
The hairpin on Rong Qiu's head flickered in the candlelight, as if the light in the room was also brightened, and she looked light, with a beautiful smile on her face, like a flower in full bloom.
Her steps are gentle, her eyes are down, looking at the mess on the ground, the smile on the corner of her mouth seems to be deeper, she walks step by step very steadily, her hands gently hold the skirt, avoiding those things on the ground, and her waist is also gently twisted, her posture is graceful, and her style is thousands.
Finally, standing not far in front of the beauty couch, her gaze gently slid over the chair not far away, which had a lot of tea stains on it, and obviously couldn't sit anymore.
Zuo Qinglian looked at Rong Qiu coldly, waiting for her to speak.
Rong Qiu sighed softly and said slowly, "Oh, how did Sister Qinglian get this?" Why is there no one to clean up this house like this? How do these maids do things? It's really getting more and more tricky and lazy, Lian Qi, go and call them all, just say that the concubine has an order, a kung fu, Sister Qinglian wants to be clean here. ”
"Yes." Lian Qi was about to turn around and leave, when Zuo Qinglian's voice came unexpectedly, "Slow." ”
Rong Qiu smiled and turned her head sideways, the red gold glazed eight-treasure hairpin on her head was very bright, but it was not as bright as her eyes at this time, in the depths of her eyes, the sneering and smug color was so clear, approaching Zuo Qinglian's eyes layer by layer.
Zuo Qinglian laughed briefly, and said coldly: "Don't bother with Concubine Rong, and the mother-in-law is not lazy, it's because I don't let them serve in front of me, I want to be quiet alone, this is my yard after all, please don't worry about Concubine Rong." ”
She focused on the word "side" and emphasized that this is her yard, the meaning of which is obvious, Rong Qiu is not annoyed, just raised her hand and swept the hair around her ears, her fingers are as white as jade, very well maintained, the color on the fingertips is bright and bright, reflecting her eyebrows and paintings.
"Sister Qinglian, your complexion doesn't look very good."
