Chapter 3: Clouds and Fog (1)
Chinese New Year's Eve
Kangxi banquet invited hundreds of officials to welcome the new year, in previous years, Xiao Kaoru and Mu Qing would go with their own Amma, this is their first Chinese New Year's Eve to enter the palace, Kangxi is waiting for incense this time, so Xiao Kaoru is on holiday, or Li Yanda is afraid that he will not take good care of himself in this kind of big festival, but Zheng and Xiao Kaoru's intentions, when the time comes, go to the emperor to cloth, the emperor and concubines, officials eat happily, he can only drool on the side and do not know when the palace banquet will end. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Concubine De Niangniang was also very considerate of Mu Qing, and she didn't let Mu Qing wait by her side, so she rewarded a large table of food.
Mu Qing found Xiao Xun to go to Changchun Palace to eat this table of meals that can be called "Manchu and Han full banquets", along with Xiao Xun's personal maid Shiyun and red note, and Mu Qing's personal maid Erlan.
"You didn't bring Le Ling into the palace? I haven't seen her since I entered the palace. Xiao Xun looked at Qing'er and asked, only Er Lan here.
"Xun Gege, you don't know, this Leling is a traitor sent by the master's colleagues, and he came to our ceremonial mansion to inquire about the news, and after the lord found out, he thought that Leling had served us Gege for many years before he picked on her at random and drove her out of the house." Er Lan has always been safe, but he knows the relationship between Xiao Xun and his master, and he doesn't hide it, and his master must be sad about this and speaks by himself.
"Well, there have been many things since I entered the palace, and there are few opportunities for the two of us to meet, so I didn't tell you." Mu Qing's expression darkened, and she only explained, Xiao Xun didn't know if it was because Mu Qing didn't want to mention it, so she didn't ask much. Le Ling has taken care of Mu Qing for many years, and Mu Qing's feelings for her are understandable, and she feels uncomfortable being betrayed by someone she trusts so much.
Leling's matter is no longer mentioned, the five of them, also master and servant are sisters, do not make noise but also happily eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, after the meal, Mu Qing proposed to go to the Qianqiu Pavilion to play, saying that Yu Rong, who he met when he entered the palace to learn the palace rules, is the current Rong Changzai is the "**" he met there, and he also wants to touch the peach blossom luck.
Xiao Xun and Mu Qing went to the Qianqiu Pavilion together, and let Shi Yun, Red Note and Er Lan play by themselves, so they didn't collide with the "nobles" in this palace.
Chiaki-tei
"Kaoru'er, you know what? That one...... The handsome guy I met in Xiangshan three years ago was ...... Eighth Master. Mu Qing suddenly said this.
"Do you really like him? But isn't his fate? Does he like you? Kaoru Shinoh crackled and asked a few questions in quick succession.
Mu Qing felt a little funny, this is a good sister, who really cares about herself, and cares about it, this is really and will never abandon and betray herself, so she said patiently: "I can't talk about liking, I definitely have a good feeling, is it okay Anyway, it doesn't matter if we have to go back sooner or later, if he likes me or not, then I don't know, it's just how it feels...... He has a very ** attitude, saying that he likes it or not, saying that he doesn't like it but it seems to mean something, or am I too narcissistic? ”
"Why do these masters like to do it!" Kaoru sighed.
"'Both'? Who's that with you? Mu Qing keenly noticed the content between these words.
"It's just a face-bumping monster, he looks like Brother An Hao is carved out of the same mold, and his temperament is similar, and he always teases me, and I can't hold it anymore." Kaoru Shino said half-jokingly, half-seriously.
"Exactly the same? This...... Hey, in fact, you, forget Brother An Hao, after so many years, you should have a new beginning, maybe that 'face monster' is the starting point of your new beginning, don't take that 'face monster' as Brother An Hao, it's not fair to you and him. Mu Qing said bitterly, in fact, she has been persuading Xiao Xun for many years, and Mu Qing clearly knows that Xiao Xun feels more guilty about Cui Anhao than she likes now, and Xiao Xun should not always live in the shadow of the past. Eh, that 'face-bumping monster' is that master? ”
"It's another Ninth Master with a bad life, what kind of fairness or unfairness, while saying that I am different from others, I am still with the palace maid of Yikun Palace." This tone? How is it sour?
Suddenly, I heard a voice floating not far away—
"Starling, the thirteenth man poured me so much wine just now, and I'm really a little dizzy at this time."
"You know that the old thirteen has a good amount of wine, and you are still capable, who else can you blame? Lao Shi has blocked a lot for you, this ** banquet is gone, Lao Shi and Lao Thirteen are still drinking, the two of them have about the same amount of wine, I really don't know who put it in who this time. The eighth master jokingly said.
Get! Speak of the devil. Sooner or later, they were going to bump into each other, and Xiao Xun and Mu Qing exchanged looks, and greeted each other with greetings.
"The slave maid asks for peace to the eighth and ninth masters." Xiao Xun Muqing said in unison.
"Get up." Yin Xi said to the two gently, in fact, it should be said to Mu Qing gently.
It's just that Mu Qing's mind is not on the Yinxi in her heart, but on the "face-bumping monster" that Xiao Xun said-Jiu Ye. Just took advantage of the opportunity to ask for peace and peeked at Yinyu, it was really the same appearance, could this be the reincarnation of Cui Anhao? No, no, reincarnation should also be the next generation, but it makes sense, didn't she and Shino also travel here? Wandering away from these deep thoughts, it seems to ignore what Yinxi asked just now.
Mu Qing was stunned "ah", and cast a look at Xiao Xun for help, but Xiao Xun helplessly signaled that he didn't pay attention to it. Mu Qing had no choice but to ask: "Eighth Master, please say it again, the slave maid has just not ...... Didn't hear ......."
"It's not in the way, just let you follow the master and scatter the wine." Yinxi has a good temper, in fact, this master has always been very good-tempered.
"Starling, it seems that you know each other," Yinyu smiled knowingly, "Since this is the case, my brother won't bother my brother's good deeds, you, what are you doing there, let's go with my master." Yinyu pointed to Xiao Xun and said.
"You! Is it true that everyone is like you? Yinxi said with a smile, but he didn't object to this proposal, so he called Mu Qing to leave.
Xiao Xun is really big, this master is really going to fake public and private. "If the master has no other instructions, the slave and maid will ...... Went back. "Think about it for a while, secretly follow it to see how Mu Qing is going.
"Naturally, there are other commands. It's Chinese New Year's Eve, don't you keep the year? Yinyu asked.
"Slave maid...... Not accustomed to keeping the New Year. "I have never had the habit of keeping the New Year, and I have hardly stayed up all night since I crossed the border without a mobile phone or computer.
"Then you will accompany your grandfather here to keep the New Year."
"This ...... It's not good here, and when the time comes, it will tarnish the reputation of the master...... "Although it is a prevarication, it is true that he does not want to cause scandals, in fact, saving Yinyu in the imperial garden before has caused a lot of rumors, plus the temper of the tenth master......
"I see who dares, but with someone like you, I am also happy." Such a serious and light woman, it is estimated that Yinyu can do it.
"Ninth Master!" Kaoru blushed in shame, but how does this feel coquettish? Oh my! Kaoru Shinohi felt like she had stopped thinking about it.
Yin Yu sat on the steps of the Qianqiu Pavilion and said, "You can do it too." ”
"Slaves don't dare." Xiao Xun said, thinking that this bird doesn't in Qianqiu Pavilion when the time comes, his endurance is not good, let alone facing such a face......
"Where don't you dare, you don't want to, don't worry, Ye won't force you to do anything, sit down." Yinyu pierced Shino-Kaoru's thoughts, and Shino-Kaoru sat beside Yin-yu in a sneer, still keeping a distance. They chatted with each other.
That Mu Qing silently followed behind Yinxi, thinking about the situation there in his heart, and at the same time thinking about what this master meant. walked silently all the way, and was not speechless.
Yinxi suddenly said: "It's not too early, I'll send you back to Concubine De's mother." ”
"Huh? It's good for the slave to go back by herself, but at this time the key has been given in the palace, where is the master? Mu Qing didn't realize that she had overstepped the etiquette, in fact, it was mainly because she didn't care about her overstepping.
"I'll go back to E-Niang's place for one night in a while. You...... Never mind. I'll send you back, let's go" In fact, Mu Qing wanted to know the content of Yinxi's fable, but she didn't have the courage to ask after all.
Mu Qing and Yin Yu walked all the way, passing by Yanxi Palace and heard a sound from inside, Yin Yu and Mu Qing stopped, Yin Yu looked at Mu Qing's appearance and explained: "It's you Thirteenth Master, Concubine Min used to live here, since Concubine Min passed away, Old Thirteen will come here every Chinese New Year's Eve to play a song for Concubine Min." No wonder, Mu Qing remembered that this song was familiar, it turned out that she had heard her aunt play it before.
Mu Qing glanced at Yanxi Palace, sighed faintly, and continued to walk with Yinxi. Finally, we came to the end of the road.
"Eighth Master." Mu Qing said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Yin Xi asked with a faint smile.
Mu Qing lowered her head and whispered, "Eighth Master...... If, I ...... The slave maid said that she ...... in her heart, will the eighth master feel that the slave and maid are greedy for vanity......"
Mu Qing's voice was very small, but the sound of firecrackers in the palace was very loud, but Yinxi still heard it, "Fool, how can it be?" I thought it was ...... That's it...... It's just that I should talk about this first. From the first time I saw you, I thought, I will marry you if you want. Yin Xi hugged Mu Qing and said, this ...... It's progressing too fast, Mu Qing just wanted to fall in love and didn't want to get married, but at this time, Mu Qing was immersed in the "first love" in this life, and she didn't argue.
However, in the Qianqiu Pavilion, Shino Kaoru had already fallen asleep on Yinyu's shoulder.
