In the eighteenth year of Tianqin Yongzhi, the emperor appointed to marry, and the concubine of the palace of the emperor of grace married Liu Zhengqian, the princess of the country. Two years later, Concubine Liu gave birth to a pair of children and died of exhaustion. The Liu family was in mourning, and the seven were still full, and Liu Zhengqian wanted to carry Ming Yuelan as a continuation, but was impeached by the concubine family and warned by Emperor Zhu.

During this period, a woman's cry was heard every night in the Yanqi Garden, where Concubine Xiaoyan lived, and even the night patrol Wei Yan saw the ghost of Concubine Xiaoyan with his own eyes. Liu Zhengqian successively sought the exorcism of the Ji family and the officials of Dali Temple to investigate, but found nothing. Although the "haunted" Yanqi Garden disturbed the peace and tranquility, there were no casualties, and Liu Zhengqian could only set Yanqi Garden as a forbidden place, and strictly ordered the people of Liufu not to mention it again.

"If it's really A-Niang's soul that is uneasy, how can the Ji family find nothing?" Yanqiyuan was haunted, Liu Zhilan didn't believe it in her previous life, so she also deliberately moved in by herself, but of course nothing happened, and at that time, it was rumored that Concubine Xiaoyan saw her daughter return home and went away. "Presumably someone is playing tricks, but the clever means didn't let Dali Temple find out anything. ”

"Even so, it is said that there will be cries every year on A-Niang's death day, and although no one has been injured, it is still not safe for you to move in. Liu Yao said worriedly.

"Big brother rest assured. Liu Zhilan looked at Concubine Seal, "Since Uncle Seal will propose to my father to let me move to Yanqi Garden, it must be fine." ”

"Concubine Seal, why do you want my sister to move there?" Liu Yao said dissatisfiedly: "Even if it is my aunt's yard, but in the end, it will always be ......" It is not clean after all, Liu Yao swallowed the words behind.

"The young master forgives the sin, and the subordinates are just worried that the master will arrange the second girl to the courtyard of the little lady and the third girl. The concubine knelt down and apologized.

"Big brother, Uncle Zhen is also thinking about me. Sometimes, people are more terrible than the demon. Liu Zhilan gently shook Liu Yao's arm, "Brother, don't blame Uncle Seal." ”

"Concubine Seal, get up. Even his sister interceded for the concubine, and Liu Yao couldn't say anything, but the long eyebrows on her delicate and childish face were upside down, and she still looked very displeased.

Concubine Zhan got up slowly, thinking about how to coax Liu Yao in her heart, and saw someone push open the door and come in, "Uncle Zhuan!"

"Juqin, Bishu, you're back. Concubine Zhan saw the pile of materials in his hand, and said strangely: "Didn't you ask you to send things to Yanqi Garden, why did you bring them back?"

"Uncle Seal, what are you still saying? Qi Qin asked: "What kind of place is that Yanqi Garden, why do I ask others for directions, but no one is willing to pay attention to me?"

"This ......" Concubine Zhan glanced at Liu Yao's more ugly face, and pushed Jiaoqin and Bishu out with a smile, "No one will show you the way, then I'll take it for you." ”

"Hey, Uncle Seal, you haven't said what's going on!" Qi Qin was pushed out of the door, and Concubine Zhen's voice in reply gradually became smaller, "Let's talk about it when I go out, talk about it when I go out......"

"This concubine!" Liu Yao shook his head with a dark face and said: "He must know something, but he just refuses to say it!"

"When the time comes, Uncle Zhen will definitely tell us, big brother, don't take it to heart. Liu Zhilan comforted Liu Yao, but heard some voices coming from outside.

"Sister Zhencha, let my sister bring this porridge in with you. ”

"The second girl is not used to being served by others, so I'd better go in by myself. ”

"Sister, aren't you used to letting your sister in and serving the second girl?"

"Are you done with your work? Don't let the masters know and accuse you of being lazy and slippery. ”

"Sister Zhencha, Sister Qiqin is not here, you are serving the second girl and the young master by yourself, my sister is afraid that something will go wrong with you, so I want to help you. But why does my sister say that?"

"You!"

"Heh!" Liu Yao listened to the movement outside, and couldn't help sneering: "Sister, as soon as you come over, this Musheng Pavilion will become very lively." ”

Liu Zhilan smiled, "It seems that yesterday's fight still didn't make the little lady have any memories." ”

"Zhen tea," Liu Yao called out, "let her come in with you." ”

Outside the room, when the two heard Liu Yao say this, the maid smiled proudly at Zhencha, and Zhencha had a cold face and took her in as instructed.

Before the two came in, Liu Yao approached Liu Zhilan and whispered: "I'll kick her out in a while, see if she dares to annoy you in the future!"

Liu Zhilan shook her head when she heard this, "You don't need big brother to make a move, I'll come." ”

After saying that, Liu Yao nodded, and the maid also pushed open the door and came in with Zhen Cha.

"Girl, young master, it's time to eat. Zhen Cha put the mushroom porridge and a few dishes on the tray on the table, and then walked to the couch and was about to help Liu Zhilan to stay, but Liu Zhilan said: "Zhen Cha, you go and serve the eldest brother, I look at this girl, let her serve me." ”

Zhencha was stunned for a moment, but the maid smiled like a flower and went to help Liu Zhilan to sit down at the table, "Second girl, be careful, you have just been injured, but be careful not to pull the wound." ”

"Zhen tea?" Seeing that Zhen Tea was still stunned, Liu Yao called Zhen Tea lightly, Zhen Tea came back to his senses and bent his knees to apologize to Liu Yao: "Young Master forgive your sins, and the slave will serve the young master for dinner." ”

Liu Yao smiled and nodded, Zhencha walked behind Liu Yao and pushed him to the table, and the two maidservants began to scoop porridge for the master.

"Hey, why is this porridge a little cold?" The maid scooped up the porridge, tried the temperature of the porridge bowl, and blamed Zhen Cha and said: "Sister Zhen Cha, this porridge is cold, the girl is not in good health, doesn't it hurt her stomach to eat cold porridge for the girl?"

It is obvious that this maid has been dragging her outside, and now she still has the face to blame her! Zhen Cha's face suddenly showed displeasure, and the maid saw it and said carefully: "Sister Zhen Cha, my sister is also worried about the girl, my sister shouldn't blame my sister for talking too much, right?"

"I tasted this porridge at just the right temperature. Liu Yao tasted a mouthful of porridge, and after tasting it, he praised: "Zhen tea, this porridge is made by you? It is light and palatable, and it is suitable for an injured person like my sister." Oh, I'm hungry, Zhen tea, give me some more. ”

When the servant girl heard this, the expression on her face froze. Zhen Cha knew that he was relieving himself, so he smiled and gave him another bowl of porridge, "Young master, eat slowly, so as not to feel uncomfortable accumulating food for a while." ”

"Hmm. Liu Yao responded casually, and soon a bowl of porridge bottomed out again, "Zhen tea, another bowl." After Liu Yao handed the bowl to Zhen Cha, he quietly glanced at the maid opposite, and found that the maid was staring at him, still holding the porridge for Liu Zhilan in her hand. And Liu Zhilan sat on the seat and smiled faintly, she couldn't tell whether she was happy or angry, and she didn't remind the maid, just waited there quietly.

"Sister, I've eaten two bowls, why haven't you moved a bite. Liu Yao swallowed a mouthful of porridge, "Be careful, if I finish eating the porridge, you won't have to eat." ”

"Ahh So his heart relaxed, and after putting the porridge in his hand in front of Liu Zhilan, he apologized hastily: "The girl forgives the sin, the slave didn't mean it." ”

Willow Orchid Scallion scooped the porridge with a spoon, chewed it in a small bite, and smiled gently: "It's okay." ”

"Miss Xie. The maid looked at Liu Zhilan's gentle manners, and said in her heart that these two girls were not as vicious and insidious as the finch tongue said, and they were so kind when they were treated slowly by their subordinates, so they didn't pretend to respect her so much at the beginning.

"Hey, it's a little cold. After a few bites, Liu Zhilan's body shivered. The maidservant noticed that Liu Zhilan was only wearing a middle coat, so she found a cloak in this room. I saw her walk to the suitcase, kneel down and open it to see that it was empty, and the whole person was suddenly stupid, "This, this, this, ......"

"The girl has had an accident these days, and the materials she bought haven't had time to find someone to make clothes, so go and get the one on Mu Shi and put it on the girl." "Zhen tea ceremony.

The maidservant looked up at the pale blue robe hanging on the wood next to the suitcase, "But this, but this is ...... A man's garment. ”

"There are no outsiders, what are you afraid of, you can't let the girl just freeze like this. Zhencha urged: "Besides, the robe was put on by the second master for the girl, and the elders take care of the juniors, and others can't say anything if they know about it." ”

The maid silently took off the robe and returned to Liu Zhilan to put it on her, and said with disdain in her heart: It's still Miss Yan, not even the Miss Shu in the house.

"Whew, eat so much. After eating four bowls of porridge in one go, Liu Yao patted his bulging stomach and said happily: "Zhencha, the porridge you made is so delicious, I haven't eaten such a delicious thing for a long time." ”

After Liu Yao finished speaking, Liu Zhilan's hand that put the porcelain spoon into her mouth paused, and pretended to taste it without a trace: "Zhencha's cooking skills are good, eldest brother likes it, let Zhencha be in charge of eldest brother's meals in the future." ”

Hearing this, the servant girl was a little nervous. On weekdays, Ming Yuelan instructed His Excellency Mu Sheng to carefully "take care" of Liu Yao, and they didn't work hard in this regard. On weekdays, because of the concubine's presence, although the food they gave Liu Yao was not leftovers, gluttonous cold soup or the like, it was not much better. These two girls looked good, but after all, even Ming Yuelan was planted in her hands, if she knew what they did to Liu Yao, she didn't know how to retaliate against them.

"What about you?" Liu Yao said: "Zhencha has to take care of you again, and he has to cook for me, will he be tired." "If you're tired, how can you concentrate on serving Liu Zhilan?

"I'm fine, the girl next to me is a first-class cook, and I will let Jiqin take care of my diet in the future." Liu Zhilan closed a bowl of porridge and instructed the maidservant: "Serve tea later, it should be lighter." ”

"Yes. "The handmaiden answered.

Liu Yao nodded with ease, but when she saw that Liu Zhilan had just eaten a bowl of porridge, she persuaded again: "Why don't you eat some more, it's not good for your body to eat so much." ”

"Xu is not feeling good and has a poor appetite. Liu Zhilan said, when Liu Yao heard this, he said sternly to the maidservant: "You, give my sister another bowl of porridge." ”

The maid was not afraid of Liu Yao's strictness, but she was afraid of flattering Liu Zhilan, so she had to do it obediently.

"Big brother. Liu Zhilan pouted and coquettishly, but Liu Yao turned her head away from her, "Good, eat more, your injury will heal quickly." ”

Liu Zhilan was forced by her brother's majesty, so she had to pick up the spoon pitifully and continue to eat in small bites. On the other side, Zhencha rarely saw Liu Zhilan's coquettish appearance, and couldn't help but snicker. Seeing Zhen Cha laughing at herself, Liu Zhilan glanced at her, but was "fierce" back by Liu Yao's eyes, so she immediately lowered her head and ate porridge. Seeing Liu Zhilan like this, Zhencha's body trembled, and it was even more difficult to hold back her laughter.

Seeing that the interaction between the master and servant was very intimate, the maid was left aside to speak, and it was not to speak, and the whole person was really embarrassed there. But fortunately, Liu Zhilan remembered that she was still there after eating, and asked her, "Little girl, what's your name?"

The maid's eyes lit up, and she said eagerly: "Back to the girl, the slave maid is called a red silk." ”

Hearing this name, Liu Zhilan glanced at Liu Yao. Liu Yao rubbed his nose, anyway, it was someone sent by Ming Yuelan, so he gave it a random name.

"Big brother, I look at this girl and I am quite neat, it just so happens that there is a shortage of people around me, is my brother willing to give me this girl?" asked Liu Zhilan with a smile.

When Hong Juan'er heard this, she turned her head and stared at Liu Yao eagerly. Liu Yao looked at her like this, obviously not well-intentioned, but she understood that Liu Zhilan must have her own thoughts, so she pretended to hesitate and said: "This ......"

"Young master, the slave will definitely serve the girl as carefully as you serve. Hong Juan'er bowed down, but thought of how she served this young master on weekdays, so she changed her words and said: "No, the slave will serve the second girl a hundred times more wholeheartedly than serving you!"

Liu Yao sneered in his heart, and said with good words on his face: "Okay, since you have this heart, and my sister wants it, I can't stop it." ”

"Thank you, young master, thank you, young master. Red Silk kowtowed, and her lowered face was full of triumphant smirks.

"Since the eldest brother agreed, then you will be the person next to me from now on. Liu Zhilan thought for a moment and said, "In the future, you will call it Huamian, and the name of Red Silk is also cheesy." ”

"Sister. Liu Yao hated her, and Liu Zhilan laughed: "Originally, how can there be a descendant of the family with such a name, and the eldest brother is really casual to give the name to the descendant." ”

After Liu Zhilan finished speaking, Zhen Cha and Hua Mian snickered together, Liu Yao shook her head and sighed when she saw this: "Alas, my sister is older, and I dare to laugh at my brother like this." ”

Liu Zhilan "giggled", then returned to her original dignified appearance, and said to Hua Mian gently: "You just came to me, so start with a second-class maid." When I move to Yanqiyuan in the future, the little lady will point me to other maids, and I will raise you to the first class. ”

Hearing the words "Yanqiyuan", Hua Mian's expression changed, her body trembled obviously, she knelt on the ground and lowered her head, and was silent for a moment without answering. Liu Zhilan's eyes were mocking, and she said with confusion on her face: "Hua Mian?"

"Oh, yes, the slave listens to the girl. Hua Mian came back to her senses and panicked, her hands on her lap clenched tightly and white.

Last night, Bird's Tongue secretly looked for her, asking her to stare at Liu Zhilan with the rest of Musheng Pavilion, she didn't tell others for her own credit, and today she came to Liu Zhilan by herself to pay courtesy, but she forgot that Liu Zhilan was going to move to that ghost garden in the future! Damn, she didn't want to go to that bad luck courtyard!
