CHAPTER XXII

Early the next morning, Xin Yao opened her eyes and saw herself lying on the bed, so she quickly sat up, what happened yesterday, she drank a glass of wine, and the amount of wine was not so bad, how did you do this, I was thinking about it, but I saw that the curtain was suddenly opened.

"You're awake, don't get up yet!" It's Twilight.

Xin Yao was so frightened that she hurriedly covered herself with the quilt: "You, you go out." ”

"What are you afraid of, if you have the courage to drink, but you don't have the courage to let people see? You'll be awake, and when you're not awake, I've seen it all. Twilight stared at Xin Yao.

"Ah...... You rascal! ”

Twilight Yuncai didn't care how she scolded, and suddenly lifted Xin Yao's quilt. Xin Yao was frightened, her eyes were closed, and she didn't dare to open them. After waiting for a long time, how quietly, there was no movement, then I slowly opened my eyes, looked behind the curtain, there was no one, and then I lowered my head, and the clothes on my body were well dressed, or the same as yesterday, and I didn't take them off at all.

Xin Yao felt that she was so stupid, she quickly got up with a red face, washed it indiscriminately, and went to see Twilight Liuyun, in fact, she didn't want to go at all, there was no way, she was someone's personal maid, if she didn't go, she wouldn't look for death.

I asked the people who were cleaning the yard outside, and I knew that Twilight Liuyun had gone to the study, and Xin Yao didn't know where the study was, and she was worried about who to take her, and she saw Jinzhu coming over from a distance.

"Xin Yao, my lord asked me to take you over, come on." Jinzhu said to Xin Yao with a wooden face. Of course Jinzhu is not happy, she has always served adults, and now that such a Xin Yao is here, the adults will not let her serve, but I hate that last night, I asked her to serve Xin Yao, it's no wonder that she is not angry!

"Oh, thank you, Sister Jinzhu." Xin Yao hurriedly followed.

When they arrived at the study, Twilight sat behind a desk with a book in her hand, and when she saw Xin Yao come in, she ignored her.

Xin Yao lowered her head, her heart was bumpy, she just came to the mansion, she didn't serve him for a day, she was drunk and let people serve, she couldn't say it, she still had to mix here, so she could make some money, Xiaoxue still had to rely on him to bring it back, I don't know when I would be able to come to the mansion, what should I do?

Jinzhu said beside him: "My lord, it's okay, the servant will retreat." ”

Twilight waved her hand, and Jinzhu stepped back, turning to close the door.

Xin Yao saw that Twilight Liuyun had a calm face and only read books and didn't look at her, alas! He went out and knelt down with a plop: "My lord, just forgive the little one, the little one didn't mean to get drunk, but I didn't know how to get drunk...... you forgive the little one, I will definitely do a good job and serve the adult well in the future." ”

"Really, you will serve me well, this is what you said, you don't regret it?"

Twilight asked, disbelieving.

"Yes, no repentance!" Xin Yao nodded affirmatively.

"Okay, I remember, if you break your word, how should you be punished?"

Xin Yao said without thinking about it: "Adults can punish as much as they want." ”

Twilight is still happy in her heart, she is really willing to serve me? Whether it's true or not, it's okay to have this, Xin Yao hasn't eaten breakfast yet, she drank wine yesterday and didn't eat dinner, so she must be very hungry. So he deliberately said to Xin Yao with a calm face: "You get up, let Jinzhu take you to familiarize yourself with here, eat breakfast first, and go." ”

Xin Yao listened and hurriedly said, "Thank you, sir." ”

Getting up and not daring to look at Twilight Liuyun, for fear that he would think of something to punish her again, he retreated as if fleeing.

***

At noon, an acquaintance came to the house, the fourth prince.

The fourth prince, Shangguan Yuheng, entered the mansion and went straight to Dusk Liuyun, this morning the court learned that the national teacher was back, Shangguan Yuheng was in a hurry, and finally went down to the court, and his father called him again. finally came out, hurriedly changed into court clothes in the side hall, and ordered the entourage to take it back to the dormitory, and hurriedly ran to the national teacher's mansion.

Seeing Twilight Liuyun, the fourth prince said excitedly: "Liuyun, you're back, I miss you to death!" ”

"Don't say it so numbly, I think about it, I don't want to die!" Twilight said teasingly.

"I can't tell you, how about it, tell me what happened to Pingnan?"

"You let me rest, I talked in front of the emperor yesterday for an afternoon, and today you come again, I can't live!"

"I haven't had lunch yet, get me something to eat, it's always okay!"

Shangguan Yuheng was grunting with hunger, and from the previous dynasty to the present, not a drop of water had entered.

"It's okay, I didn't eat it, let's go,

Go and don't ask that. ”

Twilight said.

As soon as she went out, Twilight Liuyun remembered Xin Yao and asked her to leave in the morning, but she didn't show up until now, is it that Jinzhu hasn't finished speaking? For such a long time, those Xin Yao in the National Teacher's Mansion should know that they wouldn't be able to talk about it for a morning.

The fact is that after Xin Yao finished breakfast, Jinzhu took her around to identify places and teach her how to do it, how to serve when adults were there, which places are for guests and where not to go, when adults draw and write, how to grind the ink well, how to mix the paints for painting, Xin Yao listened very carefully, asked questions about everything, and asked all about irrelevant things, how many guards were in the house, what time was the shift, where was the back door, and she insisted that Jinzhu took her to the back door to take a look, and Jinzhu was annoyed by asking about it. finally finished speaking, Xin Yao didn't remember a few of the serious things that Jinzhu talked about, and it was noon.

Jinzhu hurriedly instructed his subordinates to prepare lunch, and threw Xin Yao aside, Xin Yao saw that there was nothing wrong with her, and she didn't know where to go.

Twilight said to the four princes, "You go first, I have something to order, wait for me." ”

The fourth prince looked at the back of Twilight Liuyun in the distance, what is the matter, it will be over after giving instructions to the next person here, and he will go in person.

The fourth prince walked towards the peach orchard, and saw a maid standing by the lake from a distance, as if she was about to jump down. Is this a search for death? The fourth prince didn't have time to think about it, so he rushed over and went to pull the maid.

Xin Yao was standing on the stone and was watching the fish, there was a big koi, very beautiful, as if it had been drilled into the crack of the stone, she was looking at it on tiptoe, and suddenly someone pulled her, and as a result, her feet slipped and fell down, and the person who pulled her was also slipped under her feet, and was dragged into the lake together.

How could she swim, fluttered a few times, but it didn't work, the one who fell down with her, saw her sinking, hurriedly swam over, lifted her up, swam to the shore with her in her arms, and pushed Xin Yao to the shore.

The four princes also climbed up, and the two sat on the shore to clean up themselves. The fourth prince looked at her, his hair was wet and sticking there, his face was mixed with water, and he lowered his head to make his clothes, so he kept saying, people should look into the distance, don't think about it. Xin Yao listened inexplicably, glared at him, who is this person, pulling himself down to the lake, still talking there, dressed very well, like a noble son.

The people in the distance saw that someone had fallen into the water here, and hurriedly ran to call someone.

Twilight found Jinzhu and asked, "Where is Xin Yao?" ”

Jinzhu replied: "I was still here just now, and now I don't know where to go." ”

Twilight was furious, "Why didn't you take her to the study." ”

Jinzhu quickly knelt down when he heard this: "My lord, it was the servant who was negligent, please punish me." ”

Twilight glanced at her, "Don't let anyone look for it yet." ”

Jinzhu hurriedly stood up and ordered his subordinates: "Go and find it." "Few people have seen Xin Yao, and they don't know how to find it, so they have to follow Jinzhu and run out.

Twilight sighed and went out to look for it.

After a while, someone came to report: "My lord, it seems that someone has fallen into the water on the lotus pond." When Twilight Liuyun heard this, she flashed to the edge of the lake, and saw the Four Princes and Xin Yao sitting there, each wringing the water on their clothes.

At this time, the subordinates brought blankets and wrapped them in the four princes and Xin Yao.

Twilight looked at Xin Yao from the side, she looked fine, no problem. It's been less than two days since I came back, and I have caused so many things, is it too idle? How can it go on like this, I can't keep an eye on her all the time, it's better to find something for her to do, and save herself from running around.

Xin Yao raised her head and saw Twilight Liuyun staring at him, and quickly lowered her head.

When Twilight saw the housekeeper coming, she said to him, "You can take her down to change her clothes later, and after eating, let Jinzhu find some of my clothes and wash them for her." ”

The butler said, "Yes." ”

Xin Yao lowered her head and washed her clothes, it's not that I don't know how to wash them, when I'm on the road, I wash my clothes by myself, it doesn't matter, just wash my clothes!
