Chapter 17 Xia Jieyu

That night, in the Zixia Pavilion of Yonghe Palace, Xia Jieyu Xia Wanyu sat on the stove, and her personal maid Xiaohuan cut the freshly peeled apple into pieces, inserted it with a toothpick, and handed Xia Jieyu a piece. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Seeing this, Xia Jieyu's eyebrows moved, and she took it with her hand very displeased, looked at the apple and said, "Why is it an apple again?" I'm tired of eating apples every day! Didn't Mother bring in oranges? Go and get the tangerine! That's much sweeter than an apple and plenty of moisture! ”

Xiaohuan looked embarrassed, squatted down, and didn't move for a long time.

Seeing that she didn't move, Xia Jieyu threw the apple on the plate, and said angrily: "You are going, can't I still call you?" Are you like the slave out there? ”

Xiaohuan was frightened, and hurriedly said: "The slave and maid don't dare, the slave and maid are the personal maids of the little master, how can they be like the slaves outside?" Be...... It's that the tangerines have run out! ”

"How did you use it so fast? Yesterday's still there! Xia Jieyu glanced outside, and said hatefully, "The emperor has come to me and I have come here, and the people on duty below are all unhappy, if I am not from the Xia Mansion, I don't know how to practice!" ”

Xiaohuan persuaded: "The little master dissipates his anger, they only dare to hide lazily behind the back of the little master, but they don't dare to talk nonsense in front of the little master!" Turning back and reporting to Xia Xiang, it didn't have a good day for them! ”

It's okay that she didn't mention Xia Wanfeng, but when she mentioned Xia Jieyu, she was even more angry: "Xia Xiang? Summer phase? What's the use?! His elbows are turned outward, Weiyang Palace went to invite him, he rushed to it, I went to invite him, he just didn't have time! He is in the position of prime minister, when will he take care of our Zixia Pavilion? He's long forgotten that he still has my sister! If it weren't for my father and mother taking care of me and bringing in some things and silver from time to time, I would have been like that Yang beauty, and I wouldn't even have to use carbon fire! ”

Speaking of the carbon fire, Xia Jieyu moved to the stove again, frowned, and said, "Why isn't it warm?" Why don't you burn the stove hoter? ”

Xiaohuan frowned and said: "Little master, the carbon fire has been used up, only these are left, and the slaves and maids are all burned!" ”

"What do you say? Running out? Xia Jieyu raised her voice and said, "There are still four days left in this month, there is no carbon fire today, and the next month's share will only be available on the first day, do you want to freeze me to death in these four days?" Didn't my mother send a charcoal fire in? How can there be no charcoal fire? But it's been used by you minions? ”

Xiaohuan hurriedly replied: "Little master, wronged, how dare the slave and maid use your carbon fire?" There is no charcoal fire in the slaves' house in the middle of the month, but they dare not embezzle the little master's charcoal fire! ”

Xia Jieyu said hatefully: "Have you been to see the other minions' houses?" ”

Xiaohuan said: "The slave has been keeping an eye on the little master, and there is no carbon fire in each room!" It's just that in the past few days, the weather was cold, and the little master always called the slave and maid to burn the charcoal fire more vigorously, so the charcoal fire was used quickly! ”

Xia Jieyu was extremely depressed: "The emperor has anything good to use in Weiyang Palace, where does it matter if we live or die!" Just because when the imperial concubine gave birth that year, I had a lot of words, and the emperor has always kept it in mind, not only has I not been promoted to my position over the years, but even the days of coming to me are numbered! The imperial concubine is so expensive, we are not human anymore? ”

Xiaohuan comforted: "Little master, you can dissipate your anger, the weather is so cold, the days of Weiyang Palace are not easy, and the imperial concubine's body can't survive for a few days!" ”

When Xia Jieyu heard this, her eyes lit up, she leaned over slightly and leaned closer to Xiaohuan and asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Xiaohuan looked left and right, and saw that the palace people had gone out, Fang approached Xia Jieyu and said boldly: "The slave maid asked the people below to inquire about the news, the emperor blocked the Weiyang Palace because the imperial concubine was very sick, it is said that the old disease recurred, the slave and the maid heard that the imperial concubine was the most cold in this disease, like the wind and snow outside, the imperial concubine couldn't stand it the most, if it was colder this day, the imperial concubine was afraid that she would not be able to survive!" ”

Xia Jieyu was very excited when she heard this, but then she was worried: "No matter how cold the weather is, they will not cut off the carbon fire in Weiyang Palace, the emperor has reduced the use of all palaces, except for Weiyang Palace, then Weiyang Palace can be warm!" This imperial concubine doesn't leave the house, and the wind and snow can't blow on her! What's the use of cold weather? ”

Xiaohuan frowned and said: "Little master, the reason why we can't get close to Weiyang Palace is because that Imperial Doctor Wei has been guarding the imperial concubine, if we can start from him, where can the imperial concubine survive this year?" ”

Xia Jieyu was a little deflated: "I heard that this Wei Zixiu is the most loyal to the imperial concubine, and wants to buy him, isn't it a fool's dream?" ”

Xiaohuan said: "People always have weaknesses, and his weakness is that they can't give birth to themselves!" Doesn't he want to find a child for himself? ”

Xia Jieyu looked at Xiaohuan, as if she saw a glimmer of light, and she said thoughtfully: "I heard that my brother is also looking for a child for him, but he has not found a suitable one!" My father told me this! ”

Xiaohuan hurriedly said: "This emperor Kyoto is a rich and noble person who lives, who should not be a baby if he has a child?" Where will I give it away? If you want to find a child in this imperial capital, it is a fantasy, otherwise, Xia Xiang would have found a child a long time ago! What is the identity of the imperial concubine, where are there any acquaintances in the territory of the imperial capital, and where can she find a child with Imperial Doctor Wei? It's different in the countryside, there are many children in the countryside who can't support them, and it's still easy to bring one! The little lord gave grace to Imperial Doctor Wei, and it was such a big event, how could he not listen to the little master's orders? This matter, the imperial concubine can't do it no matter what! ”

Xia Jieyu nodded again and again when she heard this, and said with infinite contempt: "The identity of the imperial concubine is mysterious!" At the beginning, it was my brother's distant cousin who entered the palace, who knows what her identity is, she has been in the palace for so many years, and no one from outside the palace has ever come to the palace to see her, if it weren't for my brother reading her life-saving grace, she would be powerless! You send a message to your mother, asking her to find a suitable child in the countryside to come to the imperial capital! The news will be sent out tonight, the sooner the better! ”

Xiaohuan hurriedly said: "Yes, the slave knows!" ”

Xia Jieyu stretched her waist and said slowly: "Saying this, it doesn't seem to be so cold, put out this carbon fire, maybe it can be used again tomorrow!" ”

Xiaohuan said: "Yes, the slave will call someone to come in and serve the little master!" Rest early, don't get tired! ”

Three days later, the news came in from Xia Mansion, saying that a proper boy had been found, half a year old, and he was raised in Xia Jieyu's maternal uncle's house!

After Xia Jieyu got the news, she was very happy, thinking that she had grasped Wei Zixiu's weakness and planned carefully with Xiaohuan before she was at ease!
