Chapter 97
97 [Crazy Concubine] Empty Hands in Everyone's Eyes + Budding Feelings + The Concubine is going crazy!
After receiving the letter, Qin Xiao didn't even blink her eyes, and said with a smile: "Listening to the girl say this, it seems that I really have an extra box here." In this way, you go back to your girl first, so that she will not be in a hurry to get angry, and I will sort it out here, find out the box, and send it to Shoukang Palace in person. ”
The little maid was happy when she heard this, she didn't expect the things to be found so smoothly, and she heard that the young eunuch would personally send them over, so she didn't ask her to drag the dead box to work, so she naturally happily went back to her life.
Qin Xiao walked around the room a few times, and sure enough, he found a long box inlaid with turquoise inlaid with purple sandalwood that Wei Anlan said from under the bed. The luggage was placed on the front and back cars that day, and the box was placed on it, probably because Wei Anlan saw it, and it was also thanks to her sharp eyes and good memory, so she could say it exactly right.
The pearl shirt is cool and nourishing in summer, and many high-ranking concubines love to wear a piece in their underwear in summer, although it is precious, but it is not so rare.
Qin Xiao's box happened to contain one.
It was the queen who entrusted him to give it to the virtuous concubine who took care of the eldest princess.
Thankfully, it hasn't been sent out yet.
The purple sandalwood was heavy and the fragrance was gloomy, and Qin Xiao held it with one hand, but she didn't have any difficulty at all. He flipped the box in his hand, turned around and walked out of the Shang Sleep Bureau.
"There is a young eunuch Lao who is going on this trip." Wei Anlan asked the maid to bring tea and asked Qin Xiao to sit down.
Qin Xiao looked at her, and saw that in just a few days, Wei Anlan's chin was much thinner, and his eyes were a little dark.
"What's wrong with the girl these days?"
Seeing this is the lack of sleep, which makes a beauty haggard so much, Qin Xiao saw her listless appearance, and she felt a little distressed.
How good is this little girl to follow her parents in office? Concubine Wei wanted to take her to Beijing and find a high relative for her.
But she was brought into this muddy water, and she was really innocent.
"It's not as cool in the palace as it is on the mountain," Wei Anlan chuckled and said, "It's also a shame that you can bear it." I spent the night in the mountains and I couldn't stand the sultry day in Beijing, but you have been cool in the mountains for a few days, why don't you feel uncomfortable when you come back? ”
Although Young Eunuch Qin didn't smile, his long eyes were slightly bent, his eyes were clear and clear, Wei Anlan looked at it, and suddenly felt a little fever on his face, and his heartbeat was a little uncontrollable.
It's just a sin for a man to look so beautiful, Amitabha, lust is emptiness!
When Wei Anlan and Qin Xiao met, there were six palace maids standing around, although they all had their eyes down, their ears were all on their feet.
There is no way, Wei Anlan is too beautiful, Concubine Wei is too attentive to her, and Young Eunuch Qin is such a famous beautiful man in the palace...... Although he was a eunuch.
It's completely impossible to sit in the house and want to say something intimate.
Wei Anlan put down the teacup and asked the maid to take the wooden box in Qin Xiao's hand, and said with a smile: "Thanks to the young eunuch's carefulness, if you lose the pearl shirt rewarded by the queen's mother, it will be a big crime." It's a little girl who owes the young eunuch. ”
Qin Xiao bowed his head and saluted: "I don't dare to do my part." ”
Wei Anlan stood up and said to Qin Xiao: "Young eunuch, you have to go back to the mountains after a while, Niangniang loves flowers, I have planted a few different peonies here, which are half-open these days, and the young eunuch knows Niangniang's preferences, why don't you help me take a look and pick two good branches to take with you?" ”
Young Eunuch Qin stood up and said, "I am willing to serve the dogs and horses." ”
Wei Anlan nodded, shook his clothes, and walked out first.
Qin Xiao followed her half a step away, and farther away were the palace maids in Shoukang Palace.
Last time, Wei Anlan ran out by himself and came back with a pale face, and these palace maids who were responsible for taking care of Miss Wei were counted down by Concubine Wei, and this time they didn't dare to take it lightly.
It's just that Wei Anlan and Qin Shaojian are talking, but most of them are talking about the situation of the queen mother and the emperor in Cuiping Mountain, or pointing out the flowers and plants planted in his back garden. The two of them acted politely, and there was nothing out of line with their words and deeds in conversation, so they let go of most of their hearts. I followed, but I gradually became less nervous and careful.
Wei Anlan seemed to be completely unaware of the palace people behind him, and talked nonsense with Young Eunuch Qin for a long time, but Qin Xiao also had that patience, and talked to her lightly, without showing any impatience.
The sun is shining, reflected on the two of them, such as the landscape splashing ink, freehand light, and like fine painting, exquisite and colorful.
They are all men and women who can be painted, with the blue sky behind them, the green shade like weaving, and the flowers reflecting the hibiscus face, which is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.
The palace maids who followed behind them inexplicably felt that these two were really made in heaven, and they looked so compatible.
It's a pity......
What a pity......
Qin Xiao followed Wei Anlan's instructions to pick a gold-edged hosta double-petaled peony, and between the fingers of the two, Qin Xiao was quickly stuffed with a piece of paper in his hand.
"This flower is very beautiful, the queen should like it." Qin Xiao turned over his hand and silently put the paper ball into the sleeve cage, and handed a huge flower plate to Wei Anlan, "The girl is more delicate than the flower, this flower is presented with the girl's hairpin." ”
Wei Anlan looked at him, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he squatted down and saluted: "Thank you, Lord Young Eunuch." ”
The purpose of calling people has been achieved, Qin Xiao is inconvenient to stay, and after the two salute, he will say goodbye and leave.
I don't know why, looking at Miss Wei's pair of beautiful autumn water, Qin Xiao felt a trace of reluctance in her heart.
There are also some people who can't move their feet, as well as Wei Anlan.
Neither of the two young people had ever experienced love, and they couldn't tell why they felt a faint sense of loss and concern in their hearts. I only felt that my chest was slightly stuffy, with a slight astringency in the sweetness and sourness, and I saw stagnation in my steps.
Most of these things are incomprehensible to themselves, and they can't know that there is a little strangeness in their expressions.
But there were still three or four palace maids standing behind them, all of them with very poisonous eyes, and they still felt relaxed, and when they saw the eyes of these two people at this time, they felt bad.
Qin Xiao's figure had been gone for a long time, and Wei Anlan was still standing in front of the courtyard gate, and his mind didn't know where to go.
The maid called her several times before her soul was brought back.
In the evening, Concubine Wei called Wei Anlan away, waved away the palace maids serving beside her, and let her sit opposite her.
Wei Anlan didn't know what Concubine Wei had ordered to call her over, but she always felt that the atmosphere was not quite right. It is rare for Concubine Wei to face herself with such a serious face, looking distressed. Wei Anlan said in his heart that it was not good, and he was inexplicably a little guilty.
Concubine Wei stared at her for a long time before she slowly spoke: "You are also old now, and you can't always stay by the side of this palace." I originally thought that with your appearance and talent, it was okay to be a first-class lady, but unfortunately you didn't have this life, and he didn't have this blessing......"
Wei Anlan waited anxiously for Concubine Wei to continue, but who knew that he didn't hear the concubine's voice after a while.
She looked up, only to be horrified to see that the concubine was weeping.
"Concubine Niang!" Wei Anlan panicked, Concubine Wei is gentle, but her temperament is also very strong, she has followed the concubine for so long, and it is the first time she has seen the concubine cry so sadly.
Concubine Wei wiped her tears with a handkerchief, took a deep breath as if she had made up her mind, and said, "When the emperor comes back, I will ask him to point you to the Shen family." Shen Ge's old family is upright, his eldest grandson is the same age as you, although he has not yet made a name, but his family background is innocent, and the Shen family is a scholarly family, so he is worthy of you. That's it, I'll write to your father in a moment! ”
Wei Anlan was directly stupid.
She never expected that Concubine Wei called her over to directly decide for her.
She vaguely heard the concubine mention the young master of the Shen family, but at that time, the concubine was seventeen or eighteen years old and had not yet been admitted to the Juren, and she felt that she was not worthy of her family's delicate An Lan.
Why is it so sudden now, and it is going to be decided?
Wei Anlan was anxious: "Niangniang, aunt, why do you want to talk about this?" I...... I ......, "I haven't been saying anything for a long time, but I just feel that my chest is suffocating and uncomfortable, like being blocked by a boulder, sad and resentful, all kinds of entanglements together, and I burst out of my mouth in one sentence: "I don't want to marry!" ”
Concubine Wei's eyes were cold: "You don't want to marry, do you want to marry a eunuch?" ”
Wei Anlan was stunned, what is this concubine? Could it be that in the eyes of the concubine, the eunuch is not a person?
"What do you know at such a young age?" Seeing her stunned, the concubine was angry that she was not angry, and she felt sorry for her youth and ignorance, so she couldn't help but scold, "What is Qin Xiao?" A wasted person, a eunuch, but with a beautiful face, dare to seduce my An Lan? When I find the wrong place tomorrow, I won't kill this dead slave with a rod! ”
Wei Anlan's eyes widened, looking at the concubine in front of him, he almost couldn't believe his ears.
"Aunt," after a long time, her sharply undulating chest gradually calmed down, she stood up and knelt in front of Concubine Wei, "An Lan doesn't know what you heard from others, you should listen to me." ”
Concubine Wei also gasped for a long time, and when she heard her say this, she gritted her teeth with hatred and said, "Okay, let's talk about it, what is your reason." ”
"I saw Young Eunuch Qin today to ask him to help me get a gift from the queen mother. I just talked a few words with him, walked around the courtyard for half a circle, and talked about the mother's affairs, from beginning to end, I had no less than four palace maids by his side. But I don't know how Young Eunuch Qin seduced me, was it words or actions? Please ask the concubine to call the person who told me out and confront me face to face. ”
Concubine Wei was dumb, this kind of thing is just that people saw it in their eyes and speculated, of course, there is no evidence.
"Such nonsense not only stained the reputation of me and Qin Shaojian, but also slandered the palace, and flatly buckled a filthy hat to the emperor's harem. If the queen knows, she will not be able to follow it. Wei Anlan accentuated his tone.
Concubine Wei was silent for a moment, then turned her head and said, "You have nothing to do with him, forget it, when I didn't say it just now." ”
"Words are like ink spilled on paper, how can they be collected?" Wei Anlan's eyes were red, and tears flowed down, "Young Eunuch Qin is an old man from King Kang's Mansion, who has served the emperor since he was a child and has won the emperor's trust. Regardless of character and knowledge, he is the top person in the palace. In addition to his physical deficiencies, where is he inferior to others? Not only does the emperor value him, but even the champion Hou regards him as a friend. Concubine Niangniang, you can forget about your niece, how can you think of Young Eunuch Qin like that? ”
A trace of anger flashed across Concubine Wei's face, and she also said that she had no personal relationship with Qin Xiao. And Wei Anlan didn't mention Pei Yi, but when Pei Yi was mentioned, Concubine Wei hated it even more.
"If he weren't a minister, he would have a better future." Wei Anlan sighed lightly, "It's a pity." ”
"What a pity?!" Wei Anlan has always been docile and obedient, but this time she would fight her for a eunuch, Concubine Wei was very angry, and reached out and slapped the table, "But a face looks better, maybe it is not because of this face, and it is not necessary to exchange this face with others." A eunuch, still think that he is a terrible person? ”
"Concubine Niang!" Wei Anlan was also anxious, Concubine Wei was not such a harsh person before, how could she touch Qin Xiao's matter to make her speculate so viciously about splashing sewage?
"What, it's distressing?" Concubine Wei didn't wait for her to speak, and said coldly, "Tell you, as long as I live for one day, I must not watch you go astray and fall in love with a eunuch." Didn't you say that he was appreciated by the emperor and had a good relationship with Pei Hou? I'll do it tomorrow, I want to see if the emperor will turn his face against me for him, and whether Pei Hou will come to the palace because of him! ”
Concubine Wei is crazy, everyone knows that the queen has been quite proud of Qin Xiao recently, not to mention that Qin Xiao, as a fifth-grade internal official, how could she easily find a crime and kill her?
Seeing Concubine Wei's hideous expression, Wei Anlan knew that her aunt was ruthless, maybe she could really beat Qin Xiao to death on impulse, so she jumped up and hugged Concubine Wei's thigh: "Auntie, don't, we really have nothing, you think twice, don't kill Young Eunuch Qin unjustly." ”
"Drag it out, drag it out!" Concubine Wei shouted, "Are all people dead?" Drag Wei Anlan out of the palace, lock her up, don't allow her to go out half a step, and don't allow anyone to come to see her! ”
