Chapter Twenty-Eight: The First Encounter is Constant
The Spring Festival passed quickly, and the weather began to warm up.
"Spring sleepy, autumn and summer nap, don't pull me, I won't go out."
Jiang Wan, who was lying on the bed and preparing to meet Zhou Gong again, threw her arms impatiently, and Ping'er dragged her under the bed without giving up.
"The weather is so good today, it's still warm, master, if you don't go out, you're going to grow mushrooms!"
Although Ping'er is Jiang Wan's maidservant, she still needs to take care of this side courtyard. Ping'er, who had been busy all morning, couldn't hear any movement in Jiang Wan's house, so she walked in to take a look, but she didn't think that Jiang Wan was still sleeping soundly on the bed with the quilt.
"Okay, okay, I'm really defeated by you."
Jiang Wan saw that he would not give up if he didn't get up to hire a child, so he lifted the quilt and got up to change clothes and wash. Ping'er saw that Jiang Wan had gotten up, so she walked to the window and pushed the window open, and the bright sun shone so that Jiang Wan couldn't open her eyes.
"It's been a nice day."
Jiang Wan stretched his waist, such a good weather should indeed go out to exercise. Ping'er took Jiang Wan's bedding and the clothes in the closet out to dry.
"Hire'er, let's go out for a walk after lunch."
"Yes master."
After lunch, the sun was the most abundant in the day, and Jiang Wan walked around with Ping'er aimlessly.
"Look, master, that's a paper kite!"
Ping'er looked up and suddenly found something, and pointed it to Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan looked in the direction, and a paper kite was flying in mid-air, but the wind was not strong, and it flew a little hard, crookedly.
"Someone put the paper kite so early, but it looks like it's about to fall off."
Jiang Wan said it casually, and the paper kite really fell straight to the ground. Then a familiar scream came from not far away, "Ah, something hit the main palace!" ”
As soon as Jiang Wan heard that it was Lin Yao, he felt that the person who put the paper kite must be in big trouble. Jiang Wan walked over without knowing why, Ping'er frowned with a worried look, pulled Jiang Wan's sleeve, and shook his head.
"You don't have to worry, this matter has nothing to do with us, and there is no reason for Lin Guifei to want to deal with me."
Jiang Wan walked over with Ping'er and found that Lin Yao was holding her forehead, and the paper kite on the ground that was trampled on was the one she saw in mid-air earlier.
On the other side of the bush ran a woman, anxiously searching for the source of her screams.
Jiang Wan had no impression of this woman, she asked Ping'er in a low voice, "Who is she?" ”
"She is Xia Yahan, the youngest daughter of the general, who entered the palace with Concubine Xi, but after so many years, she is still a permanent person, and she has no sense of existence."
Jiang Wan nodded, no wonder the original owner had no impression of her in his memory.
Xia Yahan and the maidservant Mo'er just thought that the weather was warm today, so they thought about coming out and releasing the paper kite, who would have thought that the paper kite would hit someone. She ran over according to the trajectory of the paper kite's fall, but found that it was Lin Guifei who was hit, and panicked for a while.
"The concubine forgives her sins, the slave doesn't know that the paper kite will fall suddenly, and the slave doesn't mean it."
Lin Yao raised her eyes and looked at Xia Yahan in front of her, and the anger in her heart was even worse, she originally came out for a walk because of her injustice, but she didn't expect to be smashed on the head as soon as she walked here.
"Who are you, which palace is there, so you don't know the number of etiquette, and you don't know how to salute when you see this palace?"
"Slave Xia Yahan, this is the slave's maidservant Mo'er."
"It turned out that Ju Chang was there, and Ju Chang couldn't see him on weekdays, but this time it was a big move."
Lin Yao had a malicious smile on her face, and she was most jealous of these women with family backgrounds and backgrounds.
"Ju Chang smashed this paper kite straight on the head of the palace, but it passed through the master's heart?"
"Slaves don't dare." Xia Yahan naturally heard the meaning of Lin Yao's words, and hurriedly pulled Mo'er to kneel down and salute Lin Yao. She knew that Lin Yao's methods were terrifying, and she was of a low grade in the palace, so she couldn't be offended at all.
"Yuan Zhu, how did this paper kite hit the head of the palace, how can you smash it back, if you hurt the face of the palace today, it will not be such a simple matter."
"Yes, concubine."
Yuan Zhu picked up the paper kite that was trampled on the ground, and raised his hand to greet Xia Yahan's face.
Jiang Wan couldn't stand it anymore at this time, "Stop!" ”
Yuanzhu was startled by Jiang Wan's sudden shout, and then turned his head to look at her. Lin Yao, Xia Yahan and the others were also surprised to see Jiang Wan who suddenly appeared.
"Guifei Niangniang, Xia Changzai didn't mean to be a slave and maid, I am afraid it is inappropriate for you to do this, right?"
If it were someone else, Jiang Wan would not interfere in this idle matter, but when she saw Lin Yao's arrogant face, she wanted to fight back fiercely.
Lin Yao didn't expect Jiang Wan to suddenly appear, and she was upset for Xia Yahan, and her eyes instantly darkened.
Lin Yao sneered, "Lady Xin is really magnificent, she thought she was the previous Empress Jiang, and she dared to point fingers at the palace?!" ”
Lin Yao didn't want to clean up Jiang Wan so early, but Jiang Wan was so ignorant of current affairs, she dared to stand up for Xia Yahan and contradict herself, so don't blame her for being polite.
Jiang Wan was very calm, "The slave doesn't dare to point fingers at the concubine, it's just that she doesn't want to see the concubine so unreasonable, although the slave is not the queen, can the concubine become the queen by punishing the subordinates casually?" ”
"You, Yuanzhu slapped her mouth for Bengong, and she was not allowed to stop without Bengong's order!"
"Yes, Mrs. Xin, I'm sorry."
"The concubine is really a powerful character, although the slave is a subordinate person, with a low grade, she can't say anything in front of His Majesty, but her father may not be able to."
Xia Yahan suddenly stood up and stopped Yuan Zhu, which was completely different from Fang Cai's weak attitude. She didn't want to connect the harem with the previous dynasty, but she couldn't be beaten and scolded by Lin Yao, a woman without any background.
Jiang Wan used to be the queen and had never had anything to do with her, but now she was able to fight against her rival Lin Guifei for herself, Xia Yahan was very moved.
"Niangniang, if you are always there, you need to think about it."
Yuan Zhu walked to Lin Yao's side and said softly. Lin Yao thought of Xia Yahan's background, and looked angry, she really couldn't do anything to Xia Yahan, after all, her father was not a general she could deal with.
If Xia Yahan told the general about this, and the general made trouble in front of His Majesty, she would probably not be able to sit still as a concubine.
Lin Yao glanced at Jiang Wan viciously, "This palace will let you go, if you let this palace catch you, you won't have such good luck, Yuanzhu, let's go." ”
After Lin Yao left, Xia Yahan and Mo'er were relieved. Jiang Wan looked at Lin Yao's distant back and frowned, Lin Yao has such a grudge-holding character, she has the queen mother and Xi Concubine as the backing in the harem and is still stable, but I don't know if Xia Yahan can avoid Lin Yao's dark methods.
"Thank you for speaking for me just now, the maid next to Concubine Lin, the target is probably my face."
Xia Yahan took Jiang Wan's hand and thanked Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan smiled, "It's nothing, didn't Ju Chang stop Yuan Zhu for the slave maid, and the slave and maid should also thank Ju Chang for being there." ”
"You and I don't have to be so separated, you and I just need to be sisters and sisters."
Xia Yahan felt that Jiang Wan was not as incapable of eating fireworks in the world as she once said in the palace, and she was weak and inactive, so her attitude towards Lin Yao was not like an ordinary woman, with an aura between her hands and feet. is worthy of being a woman who has been a queen, Xia Yahan admires Jiang Wan very much.
"Then I'll call you Yahan, and you can call me Jiang Wan."
Jiang Wan didn't have any friends in the palace, and it just so happened that Xia Yahan was too, and the two became inseparable sisters by coincidence.
Mo'er and Ping'er are also happy to see their respective masters become good friends, and they always feel that their masters are very boring and lonely when they are alone.
The spring breeze rose, and one day was the time when the breeze was gusting, Xia Yahan came to the side courtyard of Luoyun Xuan to play with Jiang Wan. Jiang Wan was sitting at the table looking at the notebook, and she saw it since Xia Yahan entered the courtyard.
"Jiang Wan, I'm here!"
"I saw you when you just entered the yard, what are you doing in such a hurry, my ears are still sound, I don't need to be so loud."
Jiang Wan smiled and moved a chair for her, and poured another cup of tea. Xia Yahan was very bored in her own courtyard, so she came to Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan looked at Xia Yahan, who was a little wilted because of boredom, and smiled helplessly, after getting along, she felt that Xia Yahan was a simple little girl who loved to play, and she was very pleasing.
"Why don't I teach you how to make an object, you might like it."
Looking at the willow branches in the yard that were swaying due to the wind, Jiang Wan remembered a kind of everything in his childhood.
"Hire'er, go find some small pieces of wood and small sticks."
"Yes master."
But after a while, Ping'er found what Jiang Wan wanted, Jiang Wan picked up the knife and tinkered for a while, and put the finished product in Xia Yahan's hand.
"Well, it's done."
"What is this, how do you play it?"
Xia Yahan looked at the object composed of two blades and a wooden stick in his hand, which was very novel.
"This thing is called a bamboo dragonfly, it's a child's plaything, I'll show you."
Jiang Wan walked to the window, rubbed the wooden stick with both hands, and the blades of the bamboo dragonfly turned, flew out of the window, and flew out with the wind.
Xia Yahan's eyes flashed as she watched this scene, she had never seen such an interesting thing. I couldn't wait to take one from the table and rub it in Jiang Wan's way, but found that my bamboo dragonfly couldn't fly.
Xia Yahan was a little frustrated, "What's the matter?" ”
"You just need to practice more."
After some practice, the bamboo dragonfly in Xia Yahan's hand finally took off successfully, and Xia Yahan was so happy that she danced like a child.
"What an amazing thing!"
Xia Yahan ran out of the door to pick up the bamboo dragonfly, and then flew out and picked it up again. Just a few reincarnations later, Jiang Wan couldn't help laughing.
"Jiang Wan, what are you laughing at?"
"Laugh at you stupid."
As soon as Jiang Wan's words came out, Mo'er and Ping'er on the side all burst out laughing. Xia Yahan pouted, "It's good if you say I'm stupid, I won't be angry with you." ”
Jiang Wan smiled, Xia Yahan's temperament is really rare in the harem.
