I lay on the top of the collapse for more than half a month, during which I spent most of my time dreaming, and when I woke up, I either saw my mother drinking medicine for me, or a palace maid about my age serving me.

I asked her name, but she couldn't speak, and I guessed that she was a maid sent to me by my father, and I named her Youqing.

She has been taking good care of me since I was sick, and I know that several of my royal sisters have also come to see me, but for some reason, after sitting in the front hall for a short time, she found an excuse to leave in a hurry.

But that's fine, I'm sick and I'm worried about infecting them, and then there will be one more person to suffer from this disease, and I can't help it.

I have talked a lot with Youqing, and since I was a child, except for my mother, she is the only one who is willing to listen to me so much.

After half a month of getting along, I gradually figured out the way Youqing spoke to me, and gradually understood her sign language.

Fortunately, she is a person who is very good at reading, and her temper is also very good, unlike other palace maids, Youqing has been to private school since she was a child, and she can write well.

So, when I scratched my cheeks and guessed what she was talking about, she would write it down and explain it with her hands.

I know that she was a concubine, because she was born with a voiceless, no one liked her, and after her mother gave birth to her second child, she served her own brother like a slave.

Since it was a great shame for the family to give birth to a mute girl, his father did not allow her to claim to be his child, nor did he want to give her a name, but to keep her by his side as a servant.

I followed my younger brother and served when I went to a private school, although I couldn't speak, but I was gifted and intelligent, and I soon understood some truths and knew a lot of words.

Once, while practicing writing in the room, he was accidentally seen by other handymen in the same room, so he reported it to his father.

In the country of Qi, if a slave steals literacy, it is a felony, and it will be severely beaten at the worst, and the worst will be a capital crime, but she did not say any more, and I did not ask again.

I looked at her distressedly, she smiled and signed with me, I saw the scabbed wound left on her cuff, and I knew what happened to her later, and those who could enter the palace as a servant either had no money at home, or they were hungry and could not do anything.

I rubbed my way up, and my body was almost better, but I hadn't stayed for a long time, so I inevitably had some spare energy.

I took her hand carefully, but she hurriedly put it away like a frightened bird.

"Don't be afraid, I won't treat you like anyone else, and I'll be going to a far away place in a while, and when you're with me, I'll certainly not hurt you."

I spoke softly to her like my mother, for fear that she would be scared if she was a little louder.

I know that those scars are a shame for her, and in Qi Kingdom, it is difficult for any girl to find a suitable husband with such scars on her body.

The way of the big wedding of Qi is different from that of Yin, but in order to avoid disputes, my father still decided to marry me in the way of Yin's marriage.

Originally, I was supposed to learn the etiquette of the Yin Kingdom a month in advance, and I was familiar with other languages.

But my illness, not only the master of ceremonies who entered the palace to teach was bald, but even the old men of the previous dynasty became ants on a hot pot, for fear that something would go wrong Yin Guo "refused to sign".

"Golden silk fragrant wood inlaid cicada jade beads, one-color palace makeup thousand leaves save gold peony jewelry, exquisite dotted emerald grass head insect inlaid with pearls silver hairpin, tired silk beads hairpin......... These are all pre-made by the princess in advance, and there must be no omissions.

"Although the princess is married to my Yin Dynasty, don't break the rules, and her clothes can't be ......red yet."

I'm really going to cry, this, isn't this going to Yinguo to play in the mountains and rivers, why do I have to prepare so many things, most of which I have never heard of before.

This Zhang Siyi, who claimed to be from Yinguo, read from morning to night, from night to morning, and worked overtime to talk about these rules with me, and he was not allowed to sleep or eat if he could not learn it.

At that time, my stomach was already protesting against me, and I wanted to plant it on her head so that she could stop the meeting.

But I think I should be a well-behaved princess, and I can't be so nonsense.

So in order to escape the clutches of this man, I did not hesitate, and very obediently, to stuff a bowl of vinegar into his hand.

Even if you can't escape, it's okay to take a bad breath, Zhang Siyi knew that this was vinegar, and he also saw that I ordered Youqing to bring a bowl of vinegar.

She probably thought I was going to wake herself up, so she didn't make a strange expression, and when she saw me stuff a bowl of vinegar into her hand, the expression I had been expecting finally came to her face.

She can't refuse, because this is a courtesy.

I saw that she was about to cry, but I could only drink it hard, but it really confirmed that sentence, dumb people eat coptis, and they can't say anything if they are bitter.

She looked at me resentfully, and the people of Her Highness either covered their mouths and snickered, or held back their laughter to watch the show.

She drank a large bowl of vinegar and retreated respectfully after her painful expression.

I thought that she could live in peace for two days, but she didn't expect that as soon as she stepped out of Mingcui Palace with her front foot, she entered Kunning Palace with her back foot.

The remaining two days I was punished by the queen for copying the palace rules, but I actually enjoyed it.

As long as you don't listen to Zhang Siyi chanting the marriage ceremony law in his strange Yinguo accent, let alone asking me to copy the palace rules, even if I am asked to copy the "Analects", I will not spit out half a word.

Although it is hard to copy books, but fortunately there are young people, sometimes I will let young people imitate my handwriting to copy books, fortunately Niangniang did not send eunuchs to supervise me to copy books, perhaps because I was recovering from a serious illness, and I did not know many words.

Although my illness did not get better for a long time, my mother soon fell ill, and she always kept going to the Cheng'en Hall for the past two days, probably because my father figured out that I missed my mother, but every time it didn't take long for her to be invited out.

Youqing told me that the concubine's face has been very bad lately. In the past, the mother concubine never took the initiative to go to the Cheng'en Hall to find her father, but now she goes so diligently.

At that time, I didn't understand that I could only take care of my mother every day, and I often dozed off when the master of ceremonies was lecturing.

Sometimes he even angered her again, threatening to go to the queen mother and sue me again.

My mother is sick, if the queen mother punishes me for copying books, it's fine, but if I am punished to do other things, it won't be good if I can't take care of my mother.

So every time Zhang Siyi threatens me, I will pretend to be well-behaved and admit my mistakes.

I don't look very pleasant, and other sisters can be forgiven if they make mistakes.

And every time I begged her not to tell the queen mother, she always hit me with a bamboo board in the palm of my hand, and I cried out in pain, but I didn't dare to shed a single tear.

Just silently not let the mother concubine see sadness, and tears will not fall out.

I followed Zhang Siyi to learn the rules for half a month, and I almost forgot the rules, but I practiced a cocoon in one hand, and the old and new ones were stacked together, and I didn't dare to ask the imperial doctor to come and see for me.

Every time Youqing gave me medicine, I smiled and said to her.

"Look, we're more like sisters, aren't we?"

She glared at me angrily, tears rolling in her eyes, and she didn't dare to be angry with me, so she silently medicated me.

I watched her angry and funny look and kept teasing her.

"When we go to Yinguo, we eat whatever we want, play whatever we want, and run back when we are tired, and the concubine will order the small kitchen to fill us with many, many candied fruits.

"I guess there must be no candied fruit in Yinguo...... "I fantasize about all kinds of new things after going to Yinguo."

I heard from Youqing that there are a lot of strange things in Daqi's East Market, which are very fun, and people can fly krathongs, kites, guess lantern riddles, and visit temples.

"Do you have any of these in Yinguo?" I asked curiously, leaning closer to her.

She only shook her head, I guess she must be like me, she has never been to Yinguo.

Not long after, Si Zhenfang sent many palace maids to bring in with many boxes of treasures, because I was the first princess to marry at the age of five in the dynasty, all the gold, silver and jade headdresses and jewels were made from head to toe.

At that time, the carriage that greeted me was already waiting outside the city, and the palace ladies had been dressing me up since then.

At that time, I didn't know that the etiquette of the royal princess was so cumbersome, and I couldn't help but feel remorseful in my heart. But my father has already issued an order, probably to praise me for my wisdom and courtesy.

I had never been so praised by my father, but I didn't quite understand the words that followed.

The palace ladies were still busy working on me, and I was a little sleepy, only to feel that this side of my face was rubbed, that side was wiped there, and my hair was also coiled up with a big pimple, which made my head suddenly double the size of before.

I was very annoyed, every time I tried to resist but was stopped by Youqing, who followed me every day these days, and knew the rules of Yinguo that I didn't understand.

He also put together notes for me so that I can refer to them at any time.

When I got the thick "Encyclopedia of Yinguo Etiquette", there was a black line, and sometimes Youqing was really caring, but I really didn't want to look at those head-wreck-making etiquette anymore.

The procession of welcoming relatives had arrived at the gate of the city in a long line from outside the city, and the attendants inside the house were in a mess.

It is forbidden to post bright red ornaments in the palace, so except for me wearing a Luo skirt that is not really red, there is no joy at all.

When the ritual was over, my mother took me by the hand, and I saw her weeping again, and I felt as if I would never come back.

The concubine squatted down to look at me carefully, and I comforted her softly

"Luo'er will come back, and I want to eat the candied fruit made by the concubine herself."

The tears in the mother's eyes fell down in large numbers, and only one sentence came out of her mouth

"It's the mother who can't stand you"

Before I could ask her what was the matter, I was pushed into the carriage by the eunuch's auspicious moment.
