Chapter 4 Butterfly Beauty
Qingxin Building.
Li Luo quickened his pace, with a light smile on the corner of his mouth, and couldn't help but chuckle out loud when he thought of Luo'er.
The Luo'er in Li Luo's mouth is a maid who has served Li Luo since he was a child, and only Luo'er takes care of the upstairs and downstairs in Qingxin.
Luo'er is a few years older than Li Luo, and since Li Luo can remember, Luo'er has been by his side, and he was brought from the Luo family when the Luo family married into the palace.
Luo'er is smart and understanding, and the most rare thing is that he rarely just regards Li Luo as the prince of the palace, and has never been as subservient as other subordinates in the palace, but gets along with Li Luo very well, but like a sister taking care of her younger brother, in addition to taking care of Li Luo's daily life, it is indispensable to take Li Luo naughty trouble.
Luo'er has a quirky temperament, but there has never been anything bullying happening, which is very in line with Li Luo's temper.
If Li Luo is in the mansion, although the two are not inseparable, they also get together a lot of time, almost intimate, in the palace, it is rare to have Luo'er listen to Li Luo say a few words of spontaneous words.
Luo'er is very beautiful, otherwise she would not have been chosen by Luo's as Li Luo's maid.
Before entering Luo's house, Luo'er was born poor, just a girl in the mountains, accustomed to playing and working in the mountains and forests, and after serving Li Luo, although she studied in Luo's house for a few years, her knowledge was far from Li Luo's, only these interesting things in the mountains and fields Li Luo had never seen, and that was where Luo'er was complacent.
Li Luo is quite longing for the world outside the high walls of the palace, every time he sees Luo Er recalling the smile on his face when he was a child, he can't help but feel a sense of envy, although sometimes he also perceives the flaws in Luo Er's words, I am afraid it is hearsay, but it is never exposed, and Li Luo himself does not know whether he likes to listen to Luo Er tell stories more, or he likes to watch Luo Er tell stories more.
"Luo'er, you're lazy again." As soon as Li Luo entered the door, he saw a woman making tea, and said, "Why didn't you go out to wait for me at the gate of the house today, you are still so lazy." ”
"The slave and maid should die, I didn't go to greet the little prince, please forgive the little prince." A strange woman turned to her knees and whispered.
The woman in front of him was not Luo'er, Li Luo was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Who are you?" What about Luoer? ”
"The slave and maid trace the snow, it was the mother who asked the slave and maid to serve the little prince. The slave didn't know where Luo'er had gone. Su Xue bowed her head and replied.
"Oh?" Li Luo scratched his head in confusion, saw that the woman was still kneeling on the ground, and said softly: "You get up and speak." ”
"Slaves don't dare." Su Xue still bowed her head and replied.
Although Li Luo was a little strange why Luo'er was not in Qingxin Building, he didn't take it to heart, and smiled lightly: "Get up." ”
"Yes." Su Xue replied and slowly stood up.
Li Luo glanced at the new maid, her skin was like clotted fat, her head was like a moth, and she was a beauty, not much better than Luo'er, and she had a little more bookish girl's air, looking slightly older than Luo'er, adding a bit of maturity that Luo'er did not have.
"Retrospective? It's very rare, when did you come to Qingxinlou? ”
"Back to the little prince, the slave came over yesterday." Su Xue replied in a low voice.
"Yesterday?" Li Luo was stunned, he was still in the palace yesterday and did not return to the house, when will the house add another maid to Qingxinlou, why haven't I heard my mother talk about it. Li Luo continued: "When did Luo'er leave, can you take leave?" ”
"The slave and maid really don't know, there was no one else in the building when they came."
Li Luo was slightly taken aback when he heard this, Luo'er had never said goodbye without saying goodbye like this, and frowned and asked, "Did you leave any books behind?" ”
Su Xue shook her head, and glanced at Li Luo suspiciously, not knowing why Li Luo cared so much about a slave in the house after returning to the house, the expression in his eyes was complicated and difficult to distinguish, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Li Luo exhaled and said in a harmonious voice, "You help me ask where Luo'er went." ”
"Yes, the little prince will wait for a while, and the slave will go." Su Xue bowed and was about to leave, Li Luo raised his voice to stop, and said with an old appearance: "You don't have to call me the little prince, just call me Gongzi like Luo'er, and you don't have to call yourself a slave when no one is around." ”
"Slaves don't dare." Su Xue glanced up at Li Luo, and when she saw that Li Luo's expression was as usual, her heart moved slightly, and she gently withdrew from the house.
Prince Chun's mansion is divided into four courtyards, plus a backyard that few people go to, covering a huge area.
Su Xue ran back to the east courtyard where Li Luo was located from the residence of the head of the West Courtyard, and was already drenched in sweat. Seeing this, Li Luo said hard work, and let Su Xue have a cup of tea, Su Xue politely refused, and told Li Luo the news he heard, saying that there seemed to be something urgent in Luo'er's house, and he hurriedly took leave.
Li Luo didn't know what Luo'er had to do so urgently, but Qingxinlou said that it was not big, it was not small, and Luo'er was indeed a little tired to clean up alone, and when she came back, it would be better to have Suxue to help on weekdays.
Li Luo didn't think deeply, so he calmed down, looked at Su Xue, and suddenly asked, "Are you a woman from a family?" ”
Su Xue was shocked, lowered her head and said softly: "The slave maid is not a woman from a family, her family is ordinary, she just read a few books when she was a child." ”
"Oh, yes." Li Luo smiled lightly, "You have a gentle demeanor and are polite, I don't know that ordinary people can also have such a demeanor, even those women from the upper clan who I usually see have such a look." ”
"The little prince praises falsely, the slave and maid are just ......"
Before Su Xue's words fell, I saw Li Luo say loudly with a little excitement as if showing off: "The most important thing is the strange butterfly embroidered on your neckline and cuffs, this kind of butterfly wings are three points, which is very different from the usual two-point butterfly wings, and this kind of butterfly is only available in Chuzhou."
Chuzhou people take the strange butterfly as a memory, ordinary people's clothes can only be embroidered on the waist, the local gentry can be embroidered on the cuffs, the state officials can be embroidered on the neckline, only the governor and the governor and the family are allowed to embroider on the cuffs and neckline, you will naturally not be the governor of Chuzhou or the Zhizhou clan, so ......"
Li Luo suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly stopped.
Su Xue was still calm, but there were tears in her eyes, her voice was slightly strange, and she choked up and replied: "The slave didn't know that this butterfly still had these words, but she embroidered it herself when she saw that it looked good, and the slave and maid dismantled and washed it when she turned around." After a pause, he continued, "The slave is not a woman from a family, and she is not intended to be impersonated. ”
Li Luo secretly scolded himself for being troublesome, his face turned red, and he explained: "It's okay, it's very good-looking, you can keep it." I'm just talking about it, and I'm not sure. ”
"It's nothing, the slave and maid retired first." Tracing Xue hurried out of the house as if he had fled.
Li Luo looked at Su Xue's back and let out a long breath, like an old gentleman in Xixi, sighed, woe to his children, I don't know whose family encountered such an unfortunate thing.
A few days later, Li Luo was studying in the bamboo garden of the palace, and was reading a poem: "The ease of air is fake, and the breeze is in the bamboo forest." The end is the fun in the wine, and the occasional sound on the piano. ”
On the side, Su Xue was studying ink, and when she heard Li Luo frowning after reading it, she unconsciously looked at the book in Li Luo's hand, and suddenly saw Li Luo looking at herself with a smile out of the corner of her eye.
"Hey, I made a mistake, Da is a fun in wine, and there is an accidental sound on the piano."
Li Luo saw that Su Xue had dismantled the embroidery, and there were occasional temptations in a few days, Su Xue couldn't help but show a few flaws, seeing Li Luo so complacent, Su Xue was slightly angry in his heart, but he couldn't help it.
Li Luo didn't care, and secretly snickered. Su Xue is quiet and silent, although she does not have the laughter when she is accompanied by Luo'er, but she behaves decently, and she has an amiable atmosphere for no reason.
Li Luo's young temperament, and Su Xue slowly became acquainted, coupled with Su Xue's other charm that Luo Er did not have, the estrangement gradually disappeared, and he forgot about Luo Er's departure, and only thought about waiting until Luo Er returned to the house to talk about parting.
