Gui Ying looked at Xiao Xia incredulously: "Miss, the second young master ...... over there"

"The second brother has a life-saving grace for me, and if there is anything that needs my help, I will definitely not refuse. Just like that, I was tired and wanted to rest. ”

Xiao Xia turned around and walked to the bed, uncovered the quilt and lay down on it, but her eyes were wide open, and she looked at the top of the tent fixedly.

Gui Ying stood in place for a while, then let out a long breath, and slowly walked to the side of the bed to give Xiao Xia the quilt, seeing Xiao Xia's eyes wide open, she sighed secretly in her heart, Miss didn't mean this, but she had to avoid and endure it like this, it was really embarrassing for her.

Regarding the matter between Xiao Xia and Liang Chenjing, no one understands better than Gui Ying, originally Gui Ying was their matchmaker.

The two stumbled, from looking at each other unpleasantly to slowly accepting each other to cherishing each other to loving each other deeply, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, and the two who were finally happy for a few days were dismantled again, and now the vicious Su Linglong has finally disappeared, originally thought that they could return to happiness, but they didn't expect that the situation would be more difficult when they saw each other again.

Gui Ying helped Xiao Xia brush her hair with regret, and said softly: "Miss, sleep!" The slave is always on your side. ”

Xiao Xia's eyelids jumped, and she smiled at her slightly and didn't answer.

Gui Ying sat on the edge of the bed with her feet on her feet, her head leaning on the edge of the bed and looking at Xiao Xia.

After a long time, Gui Ying thought that Xiao Xia was asleep, and was about to get up and leave, when she suddenly heard the other party speak: "Gui Ying! ”

"Yes, the slave is here."

"Any other news?"

Gui Ying was stunned for a moment: "Miss refers to ......"

Xiao Xia didn't say a word and just looked at her, Gui Ying lowered her eyes and thought about it: "Slave maid, let's start from the beginning!"

The day after the young lady left. The capital has changed, although the old lady has just passed away, and the matter is very important. The old man and several young masters all cheered up and walked in the palace, I don't know how to enslave the maid, but I only know that three days later, the third prince ascended the throne, which is indispensable to the credit of the old man and several young masters.

The emperor moved to the palace, and all the people in the palace moved over as they were, and the slaves and maids waited for the young lady to find an excuse to return to the Liang Mansion. Because the new emperor ascended the throne, it was inconvenient to hold a large funeral in the house, so only a mourning hall was set up in the house. It didn't go on a big deal.

I heard that the second young master was very sad, and knelt on the mourning hall without sleep, eating or drinking for several days and nights, until the old lady was buried, and then the second young master was never seen again. Later, I heard rumors from the people in the house. I realized that the second young master was looking for Miss. ”

Speaking of this, Gui Ying paused slightly, and seeing that Xiao Xia did not react, she frowned slightly, thought about it and said:

After the funeral of the old lady was completed, the slave maid was able to inquire about the news of the second young grandmother.

I heard that the second young grandmother went to the old lady's spirit to cry and mourn in front of the old lady's spirit two days after his death, and then for some reason the old man was angry and personally divorced the second young grandmother. also escorted the second young grandmother to the government, and later the eldest young master pleaded. I only found a reason to send the second young grandmother to northern Xinjiang, so that she would never enter Beijing. ”

After Gui Ying finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Xia, as if she was waiting for Xiao Xia's reaction, but Xiao Xia looked at the top of the tent fixedly, and asked after a long time: "Is there anything else?" ”

Gui Ying was stunned for a moment: "Miss, the second young grandmother...... No, when Miss Su left, she cried bitterly, kowtowed and begged for mercy, and her shape was quite miserable, not to mention that she was sent to Northern Xinjiang as a sinner, I am afraid that she will not be able to come back in this life, you ...... Don't be mad at this kind of person anymore! ”

Xiao Xia glanced at her and chuckled, "Are you angry at the way I look?" ”

Gui Ying didn't understand what she meant, and she opened her mouth but didn't know how to answer?

"How is my stepmother now?"

"Madame? Madame is okay, as before, she presides over the affairs of the house and keeps the house in order, but ...... I heard that a few days ago, the second lady came back, and the lady may not be too smooth these days, right? ”

Second lady? Xiao Xia glanced at him, by the way, the second lady was a strong and domineering third party in the eyes of Gui Ying and them, and she forced Liang Guogong to marry with her identity advantage, but she didn't stay at her mother-in-law's house to serve her in-laws, but stayed in her mother's house and asked her lord to visit her from time to time.

In the eyes of the world, this practice is simply rebellious and intolerable, but the identity of the person is not ordinary, and everyone has to be respectful to her because of her identity, in fact, they hate the second lady from the bottom of their hearts.

Of course, this is a common idea among everyone in the Liang Mansion, but Xiao Xia feels that the second lady is actually not bad, and she is a lover. Mrs. Erliang is just the opposite, she looks gentle and loving on the surface, but she is a person who hides needles in her heart, if you don't provoke her, she will be good to you, if you offend her, there will be no good fruit to eat.

Separately, both of them are good people, and they are both people worth dating, but when they are put together, it is really a needle-to-wheat mang, and they can't be quiet if they want to.

The old lady passed away suddenly, the new emperor has just ascended the throne, indeed, the second lady of Yu Gong and the private went back to the capital, I am afraid that the second lady is not the only one who came back this time, right?

Xiao Xia was thinking about it, and heard Gui Ying explain: "Miss don't worry about madam, although the second lady is back, she is not resident in the mansion, this time the old prince and the county lord of the second lady's family have all returned to Beijing, the old prince's family already has a mansion in Beijing, presumably the second lady will still live in the palace most of the time, right?" ”

Xiao Xia glanced at her, it turned out that Gui Ying had misunderstood, and when she was thinking about it by herself, she probably thought she was worried about Mrs. Liang, right? Also, after all, Mrs. Liang is nominally her stepmother, isn't she?

Xiao Xia took the opportunity to say: "That's good, so I'll rest assured, wait for a few **** to ask the emperor, go back and see my stepmother, the second lady and the brothers and sisters." ”

"This ...... Miss, you are now a noble concubine, and you can't just leave the palace. ”

"Out of the palace? Can't you go back to your parents' house? ”

Gui Ying frowned and shook her head, seeing that Xiao Xia's face was not good, she thought about it and added: "Miss don't be sad, although you can't leave the palace, you can summon the ladies and them, now that there is no queen in the palace, Miss has the highest rank, and no one dares to have any objections!" ”

"Is it the highest percentile?" Xiao Xia muttered in a low voice, but she had mixed feelings in her heart, and she couldn't say anything.

"Yes, Miss, you are now a noble concubine!"

Chaise? Xiao Xia frowned slightly, she was still very uncomfortable with this title.

I wanted to climb the high branches at the beginning. trampled all the hateful and vicious women under her feet, and now that it has been achieved inexplicably, she is a little overwhelmed.

"Miss. Are you tired? Why don't you take a break? When you have rested enough, you want to know what slaves and maids will tell you. Gui Ying helped her pull the quilt, put down the tent, and prepared to quit.

Xiao Xia suddenly remembered something: "Wait a minute! ”

"What else does the young lady command?"

"Su Linglong left the Liang Mansion, those two maids?"

"Maid? Does Miss mean that you know books and paintings? ”

"Yes, that's them."

"They...... was sent back to the Su family by the master. ”

Do you want to go back to Su's house? That's okay, as long as you don't follow Su Linglong to Northern Xinjiang. Xiao Xia just breathed a sigh of relief, but saw Gui Ying's eyes flickering, and it seemed that she had something to say?

"What's wrong, Gui Ying?"

"Miss. You...... Do you care about those two girls? ”

Xiao Xia paused, stared at Gui Ying for a while, and felt that she was not jealous, so why did she ask like this?

"Miss. Don't get me wrong. Miss Su was in a uproar before she was kicked out of the capital, and the Su family also went to the house to make trouble, but the old man didn't see them and directly beat them out of the house, and he also said cruel words, whoever is friendly with the Su family in Beijing is the enemy of the Liang family. ”

Xiao Xia propped up the bed and sat up: "What? So strict zhòng! ”

Gui Ying lowered her head and whispered: "The second young grandmother made such a big mistake, it's good that the master didn't hold the Su family accountable, not to mention ......"

Xiao Xia lowered her eyebrows, yes. Also, everything else can be left behind. But about the old lady, how the Liang family was willing to give up, when he thought of it, Xiao Xia's mood was a little excited and complicated when he finally calmed down!

She sat with her eyes closed for a while before relieving herself, "That's it, it's over, as long as ...... It's good that the two families don't actually fight, Gui Ying, do you know how the Su family is doing recently? ”

Gui Ying pursed her lips and shook her head: "It's not good." ”

"How?"

Gui Ying hesitated slightly, stared at Xiao Xia's face and said cautiously, "Miss, do you know...... At the beginning, Master Su planned this errand to thank our master for the blessing of the master, and now that the two families have fallen out, Master Su must have a hard time, although Master Su's official position remains unchanged, the careers of the two sons of the Su family are afraid to ...... It won't be smooth, and the Song family doesn't seem to have a good time. ”

"The Song family?"

"Yes, Miss Su used to be close to the Song family, and everyone in the house knew that Shangguan Gongzi proposed marriage to the second miss of the Song family in a playful manner, and I heard that he had withdrawn from his marriage last month!"

"Shangguan Yan? What does this have to do with him? ”

"Miss, all the families in the capital are more or less connected, and they are in a relationship of prosperity and destruction."

"Is this so......" Xiao Xia muttered, with mixed feelings in her heart, thinking that Su Linglong drove away her soul and returned to that body and did evil everywhere, originally thought that as long as she drove her away, everyone would be happy, but now it seems that she is thinking too simply!

Even if the Su family and the Song family are not really their relatives, after all, they got along well at the beginning, looking at their current situation, Xiao Xia sighed again in his heart, it is really impermanent!

Gui Ying looked at Xiao Xia's sad face and blamed herself, knowing that she was talking too much.

"Miss, don't be sad, everything has a cause and effect, whether they are good or bad, it is caused by their own past actions, Miss relax, let's rest first! Later the slave will call you. ”

Gui Ying put down the tent and withdrew, and lit a soothing incense outside, Xiao Xia couldn't resist the sleepiness for a while and gradually fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took to sleep, when she woke up again, she felt warm on her body, and there was still the smell of sunlight in the air, she covered her eyes for a while and then slowly moved away, and found that there was indeed sunlight projecting in the window, and there was a chirping bird chirping outside, it seemed that it was noon?

She slept so comfortably, she yawned lazily, and heard that there seemed to be a noise at the door?

"Sister Guiying!"

"Is the mother awake?"

"I haven't moved yet, maybe I haven't woken up!"

"I've slept for a day and a night, and if you don't wake up, the emperor will be in a hurry, you guys stay at the door, don't let anyone in, I'll go in and have a look."

"Yes!"

The door creaked, Gui Ying came in lightly, turned the screen and saw Xiao Xia sitting in front of the dresser, Gui Ying paused: "Miss, you are awake, why don't you call them in to serve." ”

Xiao Xia glanced back: "I slept for a day and a night?" ”

"Yes."

"Why don't you call me?"

"The emperor said that you have been tired outside for two months, so you should have a good rest and don't let us disturb you!"

Xiao Xia pursed her lips and smiled, in fact, Feng Jintian was really caring.

"Miss, come on, slave!" Gui Ying skillfully groomed her and whispered:

"Miss, you are now a noble concubine, the concubine with the highest ranking in the palace, it stands to reason that the concubines in the other palaces will come to you every day to say goodbye, yesterday and this morning the ladies of the palace have come, because you are resting, so I didn't see you, but sooner or later I will see, you have to be prepared."

Xiao Xia's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and the ladies of the palace asked me to say goodbye? They're not just here to say goodbye, right? What's more, I used to say hello to others by myself, when will it be the turn of others to say hello to myself? Really unaccustomed!

"Miss, don't be afraid, you have a higher ranking than them, if you see that they are pleasing to the eye, say a few more words, if they are not pleasing to the eye, just sit down, and when they are finished, just find an excuse to send them back."

Xiao Xia smiled bitterly: "You said it lightly, people have worked hard to bow down, how can you send it casually?" Why do you have to find a good reason? ”

"Miss, it's all the reason why you're unhappy or unhappy or in a bad mood, you're a superior, why care what they think?"

Xiao Xia looked at Gui Ying funny: "That...... In the future, when you ask for peace, you will go for me! ”

"Oh, this slave can't do it for you, if you really don't like it, just sit and don't speak, and the slave will help you send it away."

"That's a good idea, but will they say I'm pampered and arrogant?"

"They just talk about it, and even if you talk to them, they may not be able to say good things."

The two of them talked about each other, and when they heard two knocks at the door, Gui Fang lowered her head and hurriedly walked in: "Niangniang, Mrs. Please come here!" ”

Xiao Xia turned around: "Who?" ”

"Madam, Niangniang, our lady has come to greet you!"

Xiao Xia was overjoyed in her heart, and stood up suddenly: "Hurry up, hurry up and change my clothes!" ”

"Hey, miss, don't worry, your hair hasn't been combed yet!"

"Just comb it up, I haven't seen my mother for a long time!"

Mrs. Liang has always treated herself well, before she was a mother-in-law and then a stepmother, even if she is a person who hides needles in the cotton, but Mrs. Liang is really good to herself, Xiao Xia really treats her as a relative, and Xiao Xia is naturally happy to see her when she just wakes up.

She hurriedly went out after a simple tidying up, but found that the palace was too big, and it took a few minutes to walk from the dormitory to the front hall, which made her impatient mood even more excited.

When he saw Mrs. Liang sitting in the front hall in court clothes, Xiao Xia happily walked a few steps and rushed over: "Mother! ”

Mrs. Liang was stunned for a moment, and quickly stood up to bow down, Xiao Xia helped her up and said with a smile: "Mother, I haven't seen you for a long time!" (To be continued.) )
