Chapter 50: Temptation
Early in the morning, Ye Xushuang finished dressing up, sat on the stool and drank morning tea, and Xin'er kneaded her shoulders.
Ye Xushuang narrowed her eyes comfortably and leaned her head back. "You go to the front yard in a while to take a look, the prince's illness has dragged on for these days, and it has not improved. If the people around him don't treat him well, come back and tell me, and send some people who are considerate of him. ”
Ye Xushuang patted the hand on the shoulder, signaling that the heart didn't need to be pinched anymore. Thinking about what Qiuli said yesterday, she took a sip of tea, and the newly pinched tea leaves were very fresh.
After a while, Qiu Li asked for instructions and entered the house, still carrying a food box in his hand.
"Well, this is a newly made cold dew cake in the kitchen, take it with you, go early and return early." Ye Xushuang's nunu mouth seemed to make Xin'er move immediately.
It's still early now, and there aren't many people moving around in the huge palace, and even if there are people who move, they're all maids who serve their masters to wash. Xin'er walked all the way to the front yard, and the sun had not yet fully bloomed, let alone Song Zhancheng, who had just gotten up.
"What is the girl doing here, do you need me to tell me about it?" The little guy with the basin was just about to enter the door, but he saw the heart waiting at the door.
When Xin'er saw the things in the hands of the little girl, she knew that Song Zhancheng had not washed yet, so wouldn't it be rude to call at this time. "No, I'll just wait here."
The little guy nodded politely and walked in without stopping.
This is a long wait, washing, changing, combing hair, and washing hands. Xin'er always stood straight, and there was not the slightest dissatisfaction on her face. It turned out that the little maid who was serving was still looking at her curiously, coming and going, and treating her as air.
Finally, when it was time to eat, plates of side dishes were brought into the house. Song Zhancheng has always eaten alone, and even if he becomes a relative, he will never let others accompany him. Because of this, the eldest princess said it countless times, and she didn't mention it anymore until he got sick.
Song Zhancheng, who had finished eating, went to the study to read as usual, and as soon as he took half a step, he saw a heart standing on the side. Xin'er's eyes drooped slightly, falling on two black shadows on her cheeks.
"Lord Wang." Xin'er stopped Song Zhancheng.
Song Zhancheng, who wanted to pretend not to see it, could only stop, he frowned slightly, and this small change in expression happened to be captured by his heart. Of course, Song Zhancheng knew that this was the maid beside Ye Xushuang, so he avoided it, but he didn't want to send someone to find the door.
Xin'er clearly saw the impatience in Song Zhancheng's eyes, but the lines that should be said still had to be said, "Lord, this is what the princess personally ordered the small kitchen to do." ”
"Hmm." Song Zhancheng glanced at the food box in her hand and motioned for the little maid to take it. He could already anticipate what Ye Xushuang meant, his illness had been cured, and his face was not as terrifying as before.
Ye Xushuang must have been unable to hold back his temperament, knowing that he was going to ask his eldest sister to put pressure on him when he was well, but he really didn't have the heart to pay attention to the affairs in the backyard, not to mention that there were more important things now.
Song Zhancheng was about to turn around, but he listened to Xin'er continue. "The princess said hello."
Song Zhancheng nodded hurriedly, not looking at her and having to walk away. He really didn't want to hear her repeat the princess
Xin'er turned back, and as she walked, she suddenly heard someone say, "I heard that Miss Buyun's hand is burned?" ”
It's Qingming and the scholar, behind the heart.
"Yes, I felt pain when I saw that wound, and I said it was burned by the bad stove." Qingming tugged at his sleeves.
The scholar said, "Isn't that the time to decoction medicine?" ”
Qingming's tone was very exaggerated, and his words were full of envy. "Well, the prince still really loves Bu Yun, I saw Bu Yun secretly holding a bottle yesterday, and it was like a treasure. What did I think! ”
The prince is special to Buyun, the front yard is always not like the backyard to speculate on other people's relationships with malice, and Qingming is a little presumptuous when he speaks.
"What is it?" The scholar couldn't wait to know the answer, and he grabbed Qingming's cuff with one hand.
The scholar is also a young man who loves to play. It's boring to stay in the study all day. I finally heard something of interest, and I couldn't resist the temptation of mystery.
"Hearing Buyun say that it was a skin healing cream, the prince had a heart. A girl of this age who doesn't love beauty. "Qingming couldn't stand the plea and told the scholar the truth." Don't talk about it. Then she added.
The scholar nodded like pounding garlic, hooked his mouth, and laughed quietly, showing two small pear vortices on his face. "Sister Qingming, you said that the prince ...... the other," said the two hooked hands together, their cunning eyes shining.
"Net nonsense." Qingming reprimanded, and after all, he made his own decisions about the prince's affairs, and it was deviant to think a little more about being a subordinate.
In fact, she didn't think about the matter of the prince and Buyun, the prince didn't want to have sex with the princess, and the whole palace knew about it. At that time, they were still thinking about the fact that there would be a Lanju one no matter how bad it was. However, he didn't get close, and the people in the palace quietly discussed that the prince's marriage was a trick, but in fact he was not close to a woman.
It's good not to be close to the backyard, and the palace has basically become two separate parts. The two in the backyard are indeed inseparable.
But if the prince is really not close to women, how can he let Bu Yun serve left and right, and show a different look to her than he treats others. Only next to Bu Yun, the prince is the same as ordinary people, there are fireworks.
The truth may only be known to the two of them, but no matter how they guess, it is not their business.
"Sister Qing, don't bother me." The scholar seemed to be angry when he saw Qingming, and hurriedly acted to comfort him. "Good sister, just this once."
"I say it to remind you that in the palace, you must learn to listen to your left ear and your right ear, and make room for others. I see? Qingming's voice was not loud, and he couldn't hear the ups and downs. It should be standing still.
The scholar's voice faded into the wind, and her heart could no longer be heard, and she fell into deep thought.
At this moment, Xin'er realized that Ye Xushuang's real purpose in calling her here was not a pastry at all, and she was worried that she would be sent away if she didn't see the prince eating, but now that she thinks about it, it's completely unnecessary.
Because Ye Xushuang wanted to send a pair of eyes to stare at Bu Yun's movements, in Ye Xushuang's mind, if the prince was a house, then Bu Yun was the biggest deficiency in perfection.
Thinking of this, Xin'er quickened her steps. It was precisely when she knew this that she wanted to go back to the backyard quickly and tell Ye Xushuang what she had seen and heard. Things big and small happen every day in the palace, it's not that the subordinates don't want to participate, but to live, and it's more important to protect yourself.
"Sister Xin'er, where are you going?"
The unfamiliar voice came from not far away, and the two happened to meet eye contact. Xin'er immediately recognized the comer, who was one of the four people sent by Ye Xushuang - Xiaoxing. She knew the love and feud between Ye Xushuang and Luo Jiu, and her body immediately stiffened, "What's the matter with you?" ”
"It's okay, I hope my sister will say hello to the princess on behalf of my sister." Xiao Xing stretched his lips and smiled, but he was coiling Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.
Xiao Xingxin said that she decided to keep an eye on Buyun since yesterday, and she happened to meet the person sent by Ye Xushuang who made a move, and it was Xin'er, and in her heart, she often whispered in a deep voice, can the girl Ye Xushuang find really take on things.
