In the early morning of the next day, Cai Qing got up, opened the small stove, broke some dead branches and slowly lit the fire in the stove, Cai Qing boiled a small pot of hot water, and broke a small piece of the hard steamed bun and inserted it into the branch of the propped tree, and carefully roasted it on the fire in the stove.

There is a very thick hemp rope tied to the side of the bed, which is specially rubbed by Cai Qing, Qiu Ling Xuan is just me and Cai Qing, getting on and off the bed is more difficult for me, a person whose legs have been wasted than climbing to the sky, Cai Qing held me when I pulled the hemp rope myself, so that I could barely move between the bed and the wheelchair.

"Miss, let's eat!"

Cai Qing poured a cup of hot water, and took the roasted golden bun from the branch, "Huhuhu! Cai Qing was holding the steamed bun and it was blown up, and when it was a little colder, she handed it to me.

As soon as I finished eating, I only heard the sound of "crunching" outside, and the sound was not guessed to be the sound of the palace door being opened, and then there was a clear sound of footsteps.

Cai Qing was afraid that they would break into the fungus on the door, so he took the lead to open the door, only to see four or five palace maids coming, holding a few trays covered with red cloth in their hands, and two eunuchs behind them carrying a large square wooden box.

I saw the leading palace maid say: "The sin slave Ye clan took the order." ”

Cai Qing hurriedly asked me to get up and accept the order, but I saw the palace maid say again, "The emperor has a decree, and the Ye family is sick, so don't kneel and worship." ”

I sat back in the wheelchair, knelt down with my hands, and only heard the palace maid raise his voice and say, "The emperor has decreed, the guilty slave Ye family, repair the palace maid's clothes and hairpins for life, and you can't take half a step in Qiu Lingxuan without summoning it." ”

"Sin slave Ye, take the order."

The palace maid handed over the tray to Cai Qing, and pointed to the square box on the side and said, "This is the hairpin-making tools and gold and silver threads found by Ye Fu, the emperor said that if the materials are true, let your maid go to the Internal Affairs Office to get it, she can walk in the palace, and you, without a call, you can't go out of Qiu Lingxuan for half a step." ”

The emperor really thinks highly of me, now I am a waste, even if I let go and let me run, I can't run far with this wheelchair, and the Ye family has also been torn apart, he has put me under house arrest like this, it seems that it is of little use, is it possible that the Ye family still has any potential power worthy of his attention.

Cai Qing was a little unwilling, and said indignantly, "Miss, you see that these hairpin rings are all cheap things, the Huansha slaves in our house are better than this, even if you trim it, no one will necessarily want it, this clearly insults us!" ”

I took the iron bar, which was called the "hairpin", and sighed in my heart, silly girl, if one day they don't even bother to bully, then our death will be over.

Every day, some palace maids will come to the palace regularly, or send some useless "iron bars", or come to get the trimmed hairpin ring, or put the moldy and changed food at the door of the side hall.

I couldn't help but feel a little comforted when I was trimming the hairpin ring, but fortunately I hurt my leg, and if it was my hand, I would have died.

Because of the short time of trimming, I don't have time to draw patterns, I can only trim on it with my mind, maybe my skills are really good, the palace maids called me from the beginning of the sin slave Ye gradually became Sister Ye, although I am busy every day, but I can finally ask a sentence or two from their mouths about the news of Ye Mansion outside the palace, every time I hear the word "good", I am much more content.

I thought that today's queen Meng Le would come to ridicule me every once in a while, who knew that I hadn't seen her once since I entered the palace as a slave, and then I thought that people were the masters of the harem, and they were too busy with serious things to come, how could they have the leisure to come to me to run around, in the end I took myself too seriously.

Qiu Lingxuan is on the edge of the deep palace, there is a small dog hole under the persimmon tree in the backyard, it is also interesting, there will be some game in the hole every few days, sometimes it is a rabbit, sometimes it is a water duck, after all, none of us can guess the reason, only know that once there is a strange sound of "squirping" at the entrance of the hole, we can add food again.

This year's winter seems to come very fast, Cai Qing from the internal affairs of the charcoal fire is very few, fortunately there are some good palace maids in the palace to see and send some, plus this autumn Ling Xuan in the dead trees are very much, although not the whole winter but can last for a period of time.

The palace maid who was in charge of distributing winter clothes said that this year's winter clothes were limited, and a lot of people were suddenly added to the palace, so when the winter clothes were gone by Qiu Lingxuan, she pulled a few feet of cotton cloth and sent it, saying that it was to compensate us and let us figure out our own way.

Cai Qing took some broken silver and secretly invited an old grandmother, although the grandmother was older, but her hands and feet were still neat, and she took those few feet of cotton cloth with the hare skins we had accumulated, but in one day I made two decent winter clothes, and I saw that the broken silver was still a little light, so I took out a newly made jade bracelet from the box and gave it to her, she was very happy to receive it, and threatened to find her if there was such a job.

In the past two days, Cai Qing has gone out very frequently, and he can bring back some dead branches and old charcoal when he comes back many times, and by the way, he has also brought some major events that are happening in the palace, such as which lady in the palace is happy, and somehow inexplicably miscarried, and which country the emperor married and the princess. The queen was pregnant, and the emperor happily exempted the world from taxes and grain for a year, and granted amnesty to more than 3,000 sinners.

Cai Qing said with great interest, I listened while trimming the hairpin, it was snowing outside the window, and when I finished repairing the hairpin and pushed the wheelchair to the door, I suddenly found that the snow outside was deep, if I was pushed to walk in the snow, I was afraid that the wheel on the wheelchair would be stuck in the snow nest and could not move without three steps, fortunately, there was a remote corridor near the left side of the hall, and there was a small open space under the corridor.

In the past six months, I don't know how many times I have turned in Qiu Lingxuan, when I am bored, I will count the broken bricks and tiles on the wall, count the wrong ones and count them from the beginning, stay in the palace for a long time and look up is the square sky, look at it for a long time, and look elsewhere with the yin circle of the four directions. This reminds me of the koi fish I used to raise, the koi grew up in a water tank, and when I looked up and saw the round rim of the tank, did they think that the sky was round?

Legend has it that the fish only remembers for a moment, and it forgets it even after thinking that the sky is round. And I, the more I look up at the Quartet, the more I miss my previous life, recalling that my mother locked me in the Qin Pavilion and suddenly felt a long-lost warmth in my heart, although I was locked up in the Qin Pavilion at that time, although I also lost my freedom, but I knew that even if I secretly ran out to play, my mother would only scold me for a word or two.

And at that time, Yu Yi was still there, and the fox was also there, everyone would always quarrel and play sex in one place, and I used to feel that I had a headache, but now I think about it very much.

In this Qiu Ling Xuan, except for the sound of falling snow and the cold wind, the fat crows have been missing for a long time. There was still a sound when Cai Qing was there, she was not there, Qiu Lingxuan was a dead city.

"Miss..... What's wrong with you? ”

I came back to my senses when I heard this, and found that there seemed to be snow falling from the corners of my eyes, so I wiped the corners of my eyes that were a little hot, and said with a smile, "It's okay, I just remembered what happened before." ”

Cai Qing was quiet behind me, and suddenly said, "Miss, I heard Xiao Ru in the imperial dining room say that there is a famous dim sum chef in the palace, and the small peach cake he made is very delicious, last time she received your renovation step shake is very happy, and said excitedly that she wants to repay you, she said that she secretly left some small peach cake for us, let me pick it up later, thinking that the time is almost now, I will go to the imperial dining room to find her." ”

Cai Qing came back from outside, but two sticks of incense were going out again, she was originally an idle person, and she always pushed me out of the house to play when she was in the house in the past, and now she is locked in this square courtyard with me, which is naturally uncomfortable.

"Good..... Be careful on the road........."

"Good! Well, it's windy outside, so why don't I push you into the house! ”

"No, it's rare to have a snow today, you can go and get my Xun."

It was snowing outside, and the person standing outside quickly turned white, but Qiu Lingxuan didn't even have an oil-paper umbrella, Cai Qing had to use his sleeves to block the way out of the trot, I sat under the porch and looked at the heavy snow, sighed faintly, and opened the slightly old brocade box.

In the brocade box is the Tuxun that Yu Yi gave me.

The palace maids sent the so-called hairpin-making tools and gold and silver threads found in Yefu, which are actually the tools in my room and some treasured rough stones, including the unbuilt phoenix Yu Fei and this Tuxun.

I haven't blown Xun for half a year, I thought it would be jerky and harsh, I don't want to be very handy, no jerky feeling, maybe I got a good snow, the melodious and low Xun sound with the "rustling" snow sound, suddenly I heard a bit of loneliness of a hermit in the mountains and forests.

"Crunch!"

There was the sound of stepping on snow in the distance, and I saw a little palace maid in yellow running over, she trotted all the way to me, Ying Ying smiled, and handed me a small red purse, "Sister Ye, Sister Caiqing came to me to pick up snacks, and I picked up this purse after leaving, and she was gone when I chased her." I was thinking of sending it to her later, but it happened that Mama Hua asked me to send seasonal fruits to the ladies of the palaces, I thought I would pass by here, so I sent it to you, isn't Sister Caiqing here? Then you can help her keep it! I will also go to deliver the fruit, and if I delay it, I will be punished. ”

This little palace maid is Xiao Ru in the imperial dining room, and the purse she sent was indeed green, and before I thanked her, I saw her hurriedly run out of the door.

No wonder Cai Qing didn't go back, I thought it was halfway to find that my personal purse was missing, and I turned around and looked for it along the snow nest, I put the purse in my sleeve and pushed the wheel back to the side hall slowly.

Just listen to "Knock! I turned the wheelchair back to pick it up, but fortunately it didn't roll into the snowdrift, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to pick it up.

The red purse was stained with some snow water and became a little red, and the mouth of the purse was loosened a corner of a bright-colored jade plaque exposed in half, and the moment I saw the jade plaque, I seemed to have fallen into the snow nest, and my body was shivering with cold.

The jade plate is Hetian jade seeds, and the face is carved with a lifelike pear flower, I pulled the jade card out of the purse, only to see the back of the jade card engraved with two small characters - Ye Hao.

I don't know how long it took for Cai Qing to shrink her shoulders and run back, her body was wet with snow, her hands were frozen red and purple and couldn't stop shivering, she put the food box next to me, trembling and beating the residual snow on her body, rubbing her hands and saying, "Xiaoru left us a whole plate of small peach cakes, I saw that the osmanthus cake on the side was also good, and asked Mama Hua for two pieces, came back late, now I'm afraid it's a little cold, Miss, you eat first, I'll pour you a cup of hot water." ”

"No need."

I took out the shining jade card from my sleeve, Cai Qing was stunned, the movement of rubbing her hands to keep warm froze in the air, she was stunned in place like a stone carving, seeing her like this, my heart sank suddenly, and all the previous speculations were completely realized.

"This jade plaque was made by me and given to ...... That person, why is he here with you! ”

“...... Miss ....... "Cai Qing lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look at me, and her lips moved for a long time and she didn't see anything else.

I said, "If you don't say it, I'll say it for you, it turns out that you are the same as my Erniang, you are all people around him, when Erniang's family was helped by my father, and there was a suitable reason to enter the Ye Mansion, and he lurked for more than ten years, and finally he and he should be outside the house overnight to raid the Ye Mansion." Of course, you are indispensable for the good drama here, the pattern drawn in my father's study was given to me by you, I was bewitched by him, coupled with your inducement, and naturally entered the secret passage of the study, which is why you are the only one in the Ye Mansion who walked out of the prison unscathed. ”

I was not angry when Meng Le led the troops to raid the house, only the sadness and overwhelm in my heart were full, and I was not angry when I saw him change into a dragon robe and a crown when I saw him in plain clothes and jade crowns, but the heart in the chest burst out instantly, and the broken ones could not be picked up, and the pain suffered was that I could not feel the pain, and the sourness was indescribable.

And at this moment, that anger is rolling in, I can't suppress the anger in my heart, if it is someone else, I don't have to pay attention to it, but this person in front of me is a person who has been playing and growing up with me since childhood, she is also a member of my Ye family, how can she .........

"When the Ye family was in its heyday, my father never thought of overturning it and starting over, not to mention that now the Ye family is a broken candle in the wind, and there is no threat at all, if he is worried, he can let the criminal department investigate, why bother to let you come to me, a waste person, what is the purpose of all this!"

"Clank!"

Speaking of indignation, I threw the jade card out in a fit of anger, only to see a crisp loud sound, the jade card fell to the ground and fell in half, Cai Qing panicked and protected the jade card in his hand and suddenly knelt in front of me, crying and crying.

"Miss, don't be angry, the emperor ..... He just wants the slave to take care of you, although it is the emperor's idea for the slave to come to you, but it is also the wish of the slave and the maid. Miss, you are alone in the palace, not to mention lonely and difficult, even the daily life you can't complete alone, slave maid.... The slave feels sorry for you......."

"Miss, Cai Qing is a slave born in the family, and she grew up with you since you were a child, slave and maid... The slave has done something sorry for you, but ..... But now the slave really doesn't have any dissent.... It's true..... The slave just wants to be with you..."

"Miss, slave ....."

"Are you involved in the Ye Mansion's raid on the house?"

The choked cry stopped abruptly, and sure enough, I didn't expect it badly, for the first time there was a Zhuge intelligence, although I was so reluctant, God still told me to guess come true.

The wind and snow were getting heavier and heavier, and it gradually became cold under the corridor, so I pushed the wheelchair and left, seeing that she was still kneeling on the ground, and sighed, "Let's go!" You and I are done with each other, and we don't have to see each other again.......... Also, congratulations on finding the person you loved. ”

Her breath suddenly tightened, and she sat down on the floor, completely silent.
