Chapter 55: Fairy Spring Water - Smell the Flowers
Ling'er then took a cheerful step to the table and sat down, drank a glass of water slowly, and said: "How can the prince sit here today, haven't you always been very busy?"
King Heng looked at the elves and ghosts in front of him, and he really couldn't beat or scold, so he couldn't help but sigh and said, "This king doesn't seem to be old, right?"
Ling'er put down the water cup, patted King Heng on the shoulder again, and comforted: "Not old, just a little older than me, Miss Ben will not accompany your old man to drink tea if she has important matters," said and was about to go out.
King Heng was only angry, but this was not the first time he was angry, and he had some ability to resist blows, so he had to endure and said: "I will accompany you into the palace, it just so happens that I haven't seen my mother for a long time, and I want to go to see her old man today." Afraid that Ling'er would find an excuse not to accompany her, she had no choice but to make up a reason casually.
Ling'er didn't care, just walked towards the gate, and Qian Duo was already waiting there. King Heng was very strange why Ling'er had specially got a carriage for herself, all the carriages in the palace were of the highest quality, and although her carriage had been improved several times, it could not catch up with the one or two of the palace. Ling'er saw that King Heng was looking everywhere and the carriage did not come up, so he pouted and said, "If you dislike my carriage, you will sit on your own, so you can drop the curtain and sit inside."
King Heng then jumped into the carriage, because there was no seat in the middle of the carriage, and he could only sit on one side. On the other side, Ling'er had closed his eyes and recuperated, and explained what happened just now: "This king just doesn't understand why Ling'er doesn't take the carriage in the mansion, but prefers to prepare another one for himself?" King Heng's words are also well-intentioned, he is obedient to the beauty, but the person in front of him has always refused to be thousands of miles away. In the eyes of outsiders, the two are also harmonious, but in fact, since they got married, the two have been acting according to the agreement, needless to say, the distress.
Hearing such a question, Ling'er naturally wouldn't say that it was for the sake of her whereabouts to be secret, but after thinking about it, she said playfully: "Do you know private property, although this carriage is broken, my sister is also a person who goes out with a car, and the feeling is not something that a prince like you can understand." After that, I closed my eyes again, and leaned my head against the window and dangled very comfortably.
King Heng figured out the meaning of the words "private property" in his heart, and saw that Ling'er looked demure but actually rude, and asked gently: "If you have anything to help when you enter the palace this time, you might as well say it in advance, and I will make arrangements as soon as possible."
This sentence is very Ling'er's heart, the corners of his mouth are raised, and he closes his eyes and says: "I just ask Princess Ning Ning to take a bath in the fairy spring in her palace, there is nothing to bother the prince, and the prince must also greet me when he sees the queen."
It doesn't matter what he said, how can a couple enter the palace together, it's just the reason why King Heng went to see his mother. King Yiheng no longer answered, he was not worried that this little girl would come to the palace alone, but at this time, it seemed that he had done something more.
The two stopped talking, the carriage drove straight to the palace gate, and Ling'er got down and went straight to Wanxiu Palace.
It is said that Concubine Wan and Princess Tranquility are hiding their faces and crying at this time, and today's Princess Tranquility going out of the palace is the last expectation of the mother and daughter, but they are lonely and come back, and there is one who is not heartbroken.
The palace maid in front of the palace gate didn't know what to do at this time, and she didn't expect to see Princess Heng coming, and hurriedly went in to report. Tranquility raised her head, and suddenly shook her hand again: "What is she doing, isn't she looking forward to me marrying into that wild land?"
After all, Concubine Wan was well-informed, and after a glance at her daughter, she said, "Hurry up and let the princess in." Immediately, some delicious snacks and good tea were prepared, as if they were guests.
Ling'er flashed into the room, and Concubine Wan didn't wait for her to salute, she had already stepped forward to shake her hand and ask for warmth. Since the last time Ling'er saved herself, this feeling is no more than others. At this time, when I saw Ling'er coming, I guessed a few points in my heart, but it was hard to say.
When Ling'er sat down, Princess Tranquility was still sitting with her face in, and she didn't care, which made Concubine Wan very helpless. Ling'er didn't care either, and saw that the food on the table was very fresh, so she tasted everything carefully. Concubine Wan served in person, as if she were her own daughter, and the two of them were very happy.
Princess Tranquility saw that no one was paying attention to her, and seeing that the concubine treated Ling'er like this, she couldn't help but say to Ling'er: "What are you still doing, is it a joke?"
Ling'er had already eaten and drunk well, clapped her hands and said, "Look at the excitement, you have been crying for half a day and making a quiet palace so noisy." After saying that, the hippie smiled and ran to Princess Tranquility to look at her swollen peach-like eyes.
The princess was so angry that she turned around and was about to go out. Ling'er hurriedly pulled her sleeves and persuaded her with good words: "Sister, I am here to help you, although I think marrying into the Western Regions is a good choice for my sister, but my sister doesn't like it, so my sister has to think about not marrying for you."
As soon as she said this, Princess Tranquility was full of joy when she heard this, and turned her head and said, "Really? Sister, are you not allowed to trick me?"
Ling'er rolled her eyes helplessly, pointed to Princess Tranquility's makeup and said, "The monkey butt is average, I just want to marry Prince Apra, and people don't have to." Let's take a dip in the fairy spring, but I heard that we haven't enjoyed the legendary hot spring water yet."
Princess Tranquility was happy in her heart at this time, and she didn't care about Ling'er's quippy words, and instructed the palace maid: "Go and prepare." Ling'er added: "Put more flowers in it, I want to wash it beautifully and fragrantly."
When the two girls arrived at the fairy spring, Ling'er saw that a flower room had been built to cover the hot spring, and a hot spring with a diameter of about six meters in the center of the flower room was tumbling up the waves, and the water vapor floated up leisurely, like a fairyland. At this time, many rose petals are sprinkled in the hot spring, not to mention being in it, just standing and smelling it is also drunk.
Princess Tranquility gracefully took off her clothes one by one under the service of the palace maid, and another palace maid who was waiting for the bath was about to come over to untie Ling'er's clothes. Ling'er waited for this, took off the clothes that should be taken off, threw the clothes that should be thrown, and then jumped into the pool with a "plop". The few people who were standing in shock were busy looking at the spring, almost shouting for help. Ling'er got out of the water, showed her head and smiled: "It's so comfortable, Jing'er come down quickly, my sister will teach you to swim."
Only then did Princess Tranquility, who was relieved, smile and said: "Sister is really a hidden person, where did you learn this, come quickly, otherwise I won't tell the royal brother to go."
Ling'er played with the floating rose petals, and said indifferently: "You tell him that I will come to the hot spring with him another day, and teach him to swim by the way." She guessed that with the upbringing of this Da Zhou woman, she would never talk about this, not to mention that Princess Tranquility was still waiting to be in the boudoir, so she would directly seal it with a sentence, so as not to be taken by anyone to make trouble in the future.
Sure enough, with just this sentence, Princess Tranquility's face was already flushed, and she turned her face away and stopped paying attention to Ling'er. The two of them soaked like this for half an hour, and Ling'er picked up some jokes to say, which was very comfortable and warm.
After the two of them came out of the fairy spring dressed neatly, and as soon as they returned to the Wanxiu Palace, Ling'er said to Ningning: "Prince Apra's old illness has relapsed, and you, as the prince's sweetheart, naturally want to visit, which is also a reasonable thing."
Tranquility looked puzzled, but Concubine Wan continued: "Just now, someone from the emperor's side said that I would bring herbs to greet the prince later, and it would be more thoughtful if our mother and daughter went together."
Ling'er saw that Concubine Wan Niangniang was so smart, although she didn't know her intentions, she didn't ask, she just acted as she was told, and said in her heart: "The women who have been in the deep palace for many years have probably practiced their mind-reading skills, and this Concubine Wan Niangniang is even better in the palace of the Great Zhou, otherwise she will not always be favored by the emperor."
Seeing that the matter was finished, Ling'er got up and said goodbye, and called out to Princess Tranquility anxiously: "My sister said she was helping me, why did she leave?" Concubine Wan Niangniang persuaded: "Princess Heng is talented and intelligent, and she attaches the most importance to affection, since she said to help our mother and daughter, she will not break her word, what are you anxious about!" A few words calmed down Princess Tranquility, and the two of them went to visit the prince of the Western Regions at night.
Ling'er came out of Wanxiu Palace, it was already dark, she followed the little palace maid for a while, and said, "Give me the lantern, you can go back, I'll go out alone." Although she is a princess, she still has the quality of not wanting to trouble others in the 21st century, and she is a good girl. Although the palace maid refused, Ling'er insisted, so she had to turn around and go back.
Ling'er carried the lantern left and right to the palace gate, only then did someone lead the way and didn't feel anything, at this time a person walking in this huge palace, there was a little panic in his heart. In ancient times, there was no street lamp, it was a cold winter, and the palace maids and eunuchs did not often come out to walk around, and the shadows of the trees were really a little timid. The tragedy is that this lantern is not easy to use, and Ling'er is not very skilled in carrying it, so it will be inexplicably extinguished after a while. Fortunately, this girl also has a little courage, so she simply relaxed and strode forward, just to a corner only to hear the voice of someone in front of her, and she couldn't help but feel happy. At this time, it would be much better to find someone to lead the way, thinking that his steps would speed up and walk towards the place where the voice came from.
Seeing that they were getting closer, Ling'er saw that they were actually two little eunuchs, and they were busy introducing themselves, and then asked the two of them to send themselves a paragraph. The eunuch had also been in the palace for a long time, so he naturally knew that Ling'er was telling the truth, but the two looked at each other at this time, and they didn't say anything about sending it. Ling'er looked at this situation, and said in her heart that it was inconvenient for people to have something, and they were slaves in this palace, where could they be free, and they were also in danger. Thinking in his heart, he looked at the bag that the two of them were dragging together, and said with a smile: "The two of you are busy first, and it's okay for me to walk slowly." After speaking, the two eunuchs behind him walked away quickly amid the repeated apologies.
After walking out of a distance, she subconsciously looked back, and Ling'er suddenly came back to her senses, and the bag on the ground just now seemed to contain a person. No wonder the two eunuchs looked vigilant, that is to say, it is not an exaggeration for the two of them to murder, and they felt a chill behind them for a while. The girl ran faster than the rabbit, perhaps the survival instinct, and arrived at the palace gate in a short time. Qian Duo was still waiting in place, and when he saw his master coming out, he wanted to come forward to say hello. I saw that Ling'er didn't speak, and climbed into the carriage, and the fear in my heart gradually decreased.
At this time, the car door was gently opened, and King Heng slowly came in from the outside, looking leisurely. But at this time, Ling'er felt very close when she saw it, smiled at her with a pale little face, had nothing to say, and asked, "The prince also came out so late?"
King Heng smiled lightly and said, "Ling'er is only running very fast, if this king doesn't have internal strength, he may not be able to catch up with you."
