Chapter 54: The Lady
The lights in the Shufang Hall were lit all night, and when the long candle dropped the last inch of tears, Bai Lu tilted her head, and she suddenly came to her senses.
Last night was the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the masters in the palace couldn't stay up for too long, and it has always been the palace maids who have been working for the masters until dawn.
Yes, Bai Lu opened a pair of hazy eyes, and when she looked out the window, she looked at the already bright skylight, and her heart panicked for a moment.
She hurriedly got down from the soft couch, and there was no princess in sight, Bai Lu's worried heart was suppressed, and the princess should be resting in the bedroom now.
After a little bit of determination, Bai Lu cleared her thoughts and walked out of the inner hall quickly, she had to put the water for washing properly before the princess got up.
"Sister Bailu—"
An unfamiliar voice came, which made Bai Lu look up in surprise, only to see the eager look on the oncoming little palace maid's face, and the hurried state between the lines was fully revealed.
This is not the palace man of Shufang Palace.
This thought in Bai Lu's mind only turned around for a moment, and was anxiously pulled away by the other party, "You must be Sister Bai Lu, come with me, Princess Fengning and Princess Rongfu are quarreling!" ”
Bai Lu was suddenly shocked in her heart, the last sleepiness in her eyes dissipated, and the little palace maid quickly said the cause and effect, and her steps were even faster, obviously she was extremely anxious, Bai Lu was not suspicious, and hurriedly followed.
But around the corner of the garden, the little palace maid left only a light blue palace skirt, and her figure disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, there was a low voice of words from the rockery by the pool opposite.
"Yu Niang, as long as I can be with you, I can do anything for you......"
"Even if I kill Sheng Changmu, I am willing, I am willing to ...... for you"
Bai Lu was a little away from the other side, and she couldn't hear what was said clearly, but hearing the words in the man's voice made her heart tremble, and her palms oozed a little wetness, almost subconsciously, she quickly hid next to the wooden frame and hid her body.
Niang?
It's like the concubine of Huangyang Palace...... Isn't her name just a willow meaning?
Bai Lu's heart was in turmoil, and she couldn't stop thinking in her heart, if the person who had a private meeting with the man behind the rockery, he really meant the concubine......
The two of them even have to plot to make trouble, so ...... Your Majesty......
Bai Lu clasped the wooden flower stand in her hand, her hands and feet were also cold, and she still had a horror in her eyes that she couldn't hide, and it was only after she calmed down for a while that she shivered and planned to escape from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
"What did the concubine Niangniang call you to do to get the Nine Stops Pill? That's not for dressing wounds to stop bleeding, how can I remember that my mother's little days are not these days......"
There were two palace maids walking towards him on the side of the path, and while walking, they were talking about the affairs of Huangyang Palace, Bai Lu hurriedly shrank his figure back, and looked at the palace maids who came over, while carefully dodging.
The voice of the palace maid's conversation also fell into her ears, "It's the Nine Stops Pill, and it's not a top poison, Niangniang asked you to take it, and you just took it." You have to remember that Xiaolan, who disobeyed her mother's will last time, went to the housekeeping workshop to do the hardest work, but she never came back. ”
The palace maid who answered was so intimidated that the person who had started talking before seemed to have palpitations, so he stopped talking, and the two gradually moved away, not noticing the white dew dodging behind the flower stand.
Avoiding the two, Bai Lu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
But before she could take a long step, the deep male voice that had been far away was close at hand.
"Little girl, have you heard enough?"
………………
Since the advent of winter, there is no such brilliant warm sun as today, and the sun shines brilliantly on the ground, which can be regarded as a bit of joy in the new year.
Sheng Changning hid something in her heart, she didn't have much rest all night last night, she got up before dawn this morning, and she didn't alarm Bai Lu, who accidentally slept on the soft couch, she went out of the palace directly, she planned to come out for a walk.
But she didn't want to, but she ran into someone directly.
Sheng Changning hadn't seen Sheng Changqiong for ten years, and his impression of this sister was still in her arrogant memory, but the rest was no longer profound.
I happened to bump into Sheng Changqiong today, obviously because a few days ago, Bai Lu mentioned to her, "In order to protect his wife and have a baby, King Yonghuai specially requested that his wife, Princess Rongfu, return to Beijing." "That's it.
She didn't expect that Sheng Changqiong would have a great interest in her, "Sheng Changqing", although she rushed back overnight last night, and even her face was tired, but when she saw her, she still asked Sheng Changning to sit down.
ordered the palace maid to pour hot tea, and between her eyebrows was the peace and warmth that Sheng Changning had never seen.
"It's called Changqing, this palace hasn't come back for so many years, you have grown so big, and it's no wonder that the imperial brother loves you a little more."
Sheng Changqiong's words were always gentle, not as sharp as before, Sheng Changning felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she had to hang her head slightly, pursed her lips and said nothing.
Sheng Changqiong smiled lightly, just because she was embarrassed by this move.
