Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Story of Xia He

When Anyang returned to King Jing's Mansion with Ye Mingyue and Liu Yan, Xia He also happened to come out of Sima Jing's courtyard. When Anyang saw her again, he had a strange feeling in his heart.

Looking at Xia He, who ran over with a smile on his face, Anyang really couldn't laugh. Dongfang Ran's words seemed to be still ringing in her ears, and she didn't know why, she just believed in the red fox.

"Princess! Where have you been? I don't know if I know the slave, Xia He doesn't know where to find you!

Hey? Who are these two sisters? ”

Xia He looked at the two people beside An Yang, his eyes full of doubts.

"Xia He, you come with me.

The two of you go to the next room to rest first, and by the way, get acquainted with the environment. Shall I wait and then someone will help you arrange a place to live? ”

Anyang solicited the meaning of the two newcomers.

Liu Yan and the others hurriedly retreated.

An Yang led Xia He into the inner room.

Xia He looked at An Yang, who was different from usual, and was a little overwhelmed. She scratched her head, had she done something wrong? The princess didn't seem to be very happy.

After entering the inner room, An Yang sat on the soft collapse and looked at Xia He. Xia He was a little hairy by her, "Princess? She bowed tentatively.

"Xia He, sit down too! ," she pointed to the chair beside Xia He.

If this was before, she would have sat down without thinking about it, after all, she knew that the princess was not a person with a fight, but today she always felt that something was going to happen. She hesitated for a moment and stood in order.

"Slaves are not tired. What does the princess command? ”

"It's not a big deal, I just want to talk to you! Today is the first day of junior high school, do you have any relatives? ”

When Xia He heard this, he immediately put his mind at ease and thought to himself, "Scared me, I thought I was angry with the princess!" It turns out that the princess misses her relatives! I'm in a bad mood! ”

But think of my former relatives! The smile on Xia He's face slowly faded. She was no longer nervous, and sat down in her chair with a sad expression.

"Xia He only has one brother left now!" She lowered her head as she spoke, rubbing her fingers, as if caught up in some unpleasant memory.

"Let's talk about you! Do you miss your brother after the Chinese New Year? Would you like to go back and visit? ”

"Don't hide it from the princess, the slave brother visited the slave yesterday! In fact, as long as he is safe, the slave and maid will be relieved! Xia He's voice was a little choked as he spoke.

An Yang looked at Xia He like this, and felt a little bad in his heart, Xia He didn't seem to be the kind of person who was very scheming, could Dongfang Ran be mistaken?

"You used to be King Jing's man?"

"Yes! Didn't this princess know? The slave is the big maid in the prince's courtyard! It was the prince who asked the slave maid to come over to serve the princess, why did the princess ask about this today? Xia He looked up suspiciously.

An Yang paused, "When did you enter the palace?" ”

"The palace has not yet been built, and the slaves and maids have come."

Xia He seemed to know what she wanted to ask, and her eyes flickered slightly.

An Yang didn't miss this small change of hers.

"Where did you do it before you entered the palace?"

"Princess!" Xia He pounced and knelt down.

"The slave didn't mean to hide it, but just ......"

"Don't panic, just tell the truth!" This time, Anyang didn't let her get up immediately.

"The slave is a palace person who has been transferred from the palace."

"It's just a palace man? I want to hear the truth, Natsuho, and I hope you don't let me down! An Yang's tone was cold. She had never doubted her, treated her like a sister, and she really didn't want her to say anything that would disappoint her.

"I'm ......" Xia He trembled violently.

"Don't want to say it or can't say it?" Anyang asked.

"Princess, I didn't mean to hide it! I just don't know how to start! Xia He's eyes glistened with tears.

"I am the one who serves the prince in the palace. Don't get me wrong! It's not what you think, it's really not. ”

An Yang saw her incoherently, closed her eyes, and suppressed the discomfort in her heart, "I don't care if you are Sima Jing's room or concubine, I just want to know why you came to me, did he ask you to spy on me?" ”

Xia He's body was obviously stiff, she raised the cheeks of the crying pear blossom with rain, looked at An Yang fixedly for a while, wiped a handful of snot and tears, and then said, "Princess, you really misunderstood!" The prince didn't let the slaves spy on you! The slave is not a woman in the prince's room! She paused for a moment, obviously struggling mentally, and finally relented, "The slave doesn't know where the princess heard this." Yes, everyone in the palace thought that the slave maid was the prince's woman, so after the palace was built, the prince took the slave and maid out of the palace. The slave maid is indeed the prince's enlightenment palace maid. But the prince has mercy on the slaves! He said that he didn't love the slave and didn't want the slave to be ruined for the rest of his life. We didn't actually do anything that night! He cut his arm to help the slave and maid fulfill the lie. Originally, this can't be said, this is the crime of deception! ……

Princess! Slave beg! Be sure to help the slave keep this secret! The slave is willing to be a cow and a horse for the princess! Whatever you ask your slave to do! I just hope that the princess can keep this secret for the slave maid! A slave and maid have a cheap life, which is not worth cherishing! But the slave really doesn't want the princess to misunderstand the princess! The prince is not a person who covets women! ”

An Yang listened to her heart-wrenching confession, and his heart was mixed. She didn't expect the truth to be like this, she believed Xia He's words, after all, with her understanding of Sima Jing, he should have done such a thing.

"You get up and talk first!" An Yang stretched out his hand to help Xia He.

Xia He continued while wiping his tears, "The slave maid and brother were originally criminal slaves in the palace, and my father was originally a servant of the criminal department, but he was beheaded for offending nobles!" The mother couldn't think of going with her father for a while, the slave and maid were thrown into the palace as a maid, and the elder brother became a eunuch! Xia He couldn't say anything about this, and he became painful.

An Yang looked at her twitching shoulders and couldn't help but moisten his eyes.

It took a while for her to stop her grief and tell her story about their brother and sister in fits and starts.

It turned out that she was the most humble palace maid in the palace, and it stands to reason that she would not be able to leave the palace for the rest of her life.

Later, somehow, the queen found her, transferred her to the queen's Fengyi Palace, and took good care of her. When the thirteenth prince was fourteen years old, when she needed enlightenment according to the rules of the court, the queen arranged for her and gave her grace and power.

Although she was unwilling, she thought of her hard-working brother and had to agree. The Thirteenth Prince knew about her and decided to help her get out of the sea of suffering, and acted in that scene with her. Then she was transferred to the Thirteen Princes' dormitory to serve, as long as she regularly reported the information of the Thirteen Princes and the Lady Concubine to the Empress. Of course, she wouldn't really report valuable news, and she had discussed it with the Thirteen Princes.

After Sima Jing disappeared for a while, the queen felt that she was no longer valuable, so she no longer embarrassed her brother. didn't want Sima Jing to return to the dynasty suddenly, Pang Guifei got the news as soon as possible and snatched her brother. Sima Jing knew that his next few efforts were unsuccessful, so he only picked her up. Now although their brothers and sisters are free from the queen's grasp, they have to be subject to Concubine Pang Guifei. Therefore, his brother would come out of the palace from time to time to come to her to collect information about King Jing's Mansion. Of course, Sima Jing also knew all this. This is the reason why Xia He often goes to the front yard to find Sima Jing.

Anyang never expected that there would be such a tortuous story. It seems that this gentle and virtuous Pang Guifei is not as simple as it seems on the surface! An Yang originally thought that the Gu family was the most suspicious of being wiped out by the queen, but now it seems that it was the queen or Concubine Pang Guifei? Or is there anyone else? There are many mysteries, and Anyang has no direction at all!
