Chapter 21: Resolving the Trouble
Song Jin thought for a while, and slowly said to Yun Zheng: "Ah Zheng, you were sent by me to the south hall of the Yunyun Pavilion to experience from the beginning of your life, I thought you knew how high my expectations were for you." But most of the time you've spent down there over the years hasn't made you what I expected, nor has it worn away some bad character.
If I tell you again and again, I will have to let you stay in the palace from now on, and let the queen mother take it with you, and teach you how to act again. ”
Yun Zheng looked very afraid of Song Jin before, but she was actually used to Song Jin's resentment, and she didn't take the reprimand to her heart many times, the master's words made her like cold water, and she instantly sobered up, only to understand how indulgent her previous attitude was.
She has been away from the princess for many years, and she has been unconsciously accustomed to traveling in the market and towns, from learning from the elders at the beginning to giving orders later, she has become more and more like an indulgent and wanton ranger.
But she forgot that her real identity was the secret guard of the royal woman, the maidservant selected by the queen thousands of selections, and the royal attendant.
Thinking of this, Yun Zheng couldn't help but ooze a cold sweat. What's wrong with her?
"Always remember your identity and duties", this was the only sentence that the leader said on the first day of training as a secret guard in the training camp.
As soon as Yun Zheng's legs went weak, he knelt down.
She didn't speak, kowtowed heavily, and then raised her head, with a sudden remorse and self-blame in her eyes, and two lines of tears.
"Princess, Ah Zheng is wrong! Ah Zheng didn't know what it was that blinded him, and after he came back, he actually quarreled with people several times regardless of your identity and royal majesty, which was simply crazy...... This is a great dereliction of duty! The mood of the subordinates is indeed a little loose and impetuous...... The sins of subordinates are unforgivable! ”
Ah Zheng said and spoke, leaving more tears.
"You're right, over the years, Ah Zheng has really been a little immersed in the rivers and lakes, and he is about to forget his duties, almost ruined our plan, and asked the master to punish him severely!"
When she was asking for sin, she suddenly remembered Song Jin's words, raised her head again, looked at Song Jin in fear and pleading, and said: "My subordinates have made a big mistake, but I just begged the princess to give Ah Zheng another chance, Ah Zheng no longer dares to forget her duty and live up to the princess's favor!" ”
Song Jin looked at Ah Zheng lightly, this matter is not big, she didn't want to say it so seriously, and she was afraid of hurting the master's and servant's feelings.
But if you don't talk about the small things this time, it will be a big thing in the future, and it will be too late to talk about it at that time, if the queen mother is here, with the style of the queen mother, I can't keep her.
She looked at Ah Zheng and didn't let her get up immediately, if the royal majesty, she still inherited the mantle from the queen mother, although she couldn't bear it in her heart, she couldn't just expose it leniently, otherwise it would hurt her.
Song Jin didn't speak, just looked at Yun Zheng's hanging head in silence, and after a cup of tea, it wasn't until Yun Zheng, who was waiting, really thought that he had no chance and was ready to obey the order, and then sighed.
"Well, it's just the two of us this time, and I can assume that it didn't happen this time. However, in the future, you have to start to pay attention, we will be very dangerous for a period of time, we have to fight with the Turks and Tartars, and we have to play with a few treacherous and cunning old men in the court, and now there is the big trouble in the backyard, and our escape plan, so many things, if you are not careful, you will all be eaten There are no bones left, a subordinate, someone grabbed the handle and killed it, the queen mother has no choice, let alone me, you are so careless, it is good to return to the palace, it is good to help me here, one is not careful, a girl like you who has been in her prime for two decades will die. I also went to the most trusted people, do you remember the serious consequences of these things being careless? ”
"You look like this, I'm very worried about whether the next tasks can be handed over to you, when you have nothing to do in the past two days, copy the secret guard rules and palace rules ten times, and collect your heart."
Hearing Song Jin's careless words, Yun Zheng was both happy and touched, knowing that the princess was for her own good, her mood was as if she was reborn, and she kowtowed with gratitude.
Song Jin saw that she was really sober this time, and knew that she was scared, so she waved her back.
Although she has always been close to Song Jin like a sister, she knows Song Jin's methods, and the queen in the palace is so uneasy to see the king, she still lives without worrying about food and clothing, and all the examples are still the best in the palace.
Even if there are two other favorite concubines in charge of the harem, no one dares to praise the high and the low, except for King Ning's occasional inquiries, it is all Song Jin's credit.
Such a princess who has been personally cultivated by the learned and majestic queen as a descendant since she was a child, it is impossible to say that she is simply like a blank sheet of paper, and it is impossible to survive in the cannibalistic palace.
Being able to be forgiven by Song Jin is actually thanks to the deep affection of the master and servant before, Song Jin is really worried about herself as a sister.
Ah Zheng looked at Song Jin with tears in his eyes, kowtowed three times gratefully, and respectfully went back to copy the palace rules and the code of secret guards.
Song Jin just beat Yun Zheng like this, and he didn't feel very comfortable.
After all, the master and servant over the years, the relationship between the three of them is no longer a simple master and servant, they have grown up together, although the two girls from the secret guard are maids, but because they are three or four years older, they have been ignored by the palace people since they were children, and when they were deducted or even bullied, they all did not say a word to protect themselves and never had two hearts, so over the years, she has always regarded them as sisters in her heart.
She believes that although they have never exceeded their own rules, they also maintain themselves as relatives in their hearts.
Yunsheng is sensitive, mature and steady, delicate, can sit and protect himself, the disadvantage is that he has no curiosity, except for himself and his mother, who is relatively cold to anyone, and is easy to miss some opportunities; Yun Zheng is neat, strong in assassination, and has the upright atmosphere of the children of the rivers and lakes, and can perform tasks outside, but he is impulsive and straightforward, and it is easy to fall into the way of some people.
That's why Song Jin sent her down to the south to follow the elders of the main hall to learn the dangers of the rivers and lakes and train her mind. She treats them as her own siblings and does not allow them to be in any danger.
Now as the date of escape approaches, their situation is becoming more and more severe, and the nearest Yuandu City also seems to be quiet before the storm, and the news from Ah Sheng said that many merchants and stage teams dressed as exotic businessmen have recently entered the capital, Prime Minister Zuo Zhu Qinghe, according to the information she has mastered over the years, it is far from being as simple as it seems, if there is chaos in the capital or Ningguo, she is very sure that Zhu Qinghe is definitely the biggest variable among them.
Thinking of this, she rubbed her forehead irritably, if the queen mother had been in charge all these years, she would definitely do much better than herself, and the people in the pavilion would not be so fluctuating.
The little maid who looked like a waiter in the courtyard was standing timidly at the door, and when the girl went out, she was sweeping the floor, and inadvertently saw her wiping her eyes, presumably she was reprimanded by the young lady, and it was definitely not a good time to appear, but the person outside the door made a fuss and made a loud noise, and he would definitely be punished, so he was in a dilemma and had a bitter face there.
Song Jin has already seen the figure outside the door out of the corner of his eye, no matter what he does with Ah Zheng, it is also a matter between their master and servant, and it will not let outsiders see many clues.
She put down her exposed look, beckoned to the maid, and kindly asked her what was the matter.
The little girl's trembling figure slowly stabilized when she saw Song Jin's gentle attitude.
"Miss, the guard outside is here again, just now Sister Yun Zheng reprimanded him and thought he was scolded away, who knew that after a while, he saw that the Zheng girl was gone, he came over again, and asked to see you outside the door and said that he must see you, otherwise he won't leave!"
Song Jin was speechless, what the hell is going on with these masters and servants? Are all Han Yan's people like this?
With a light in his eyes, he got up and walked out, if he didn't clean up them, they would really regard this place as their own backyard, and by the way, they should be in a coma since they came, and the Buddha who has just woken up now!
