Chapter 3: The Calm Before the Storm
After she fell asleep, Helian Yi, who should have fallen asleep on the side, opened her eyes.
got up silently, turned his head to look at Shen Lian, who was already asleep, his long narrow eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were cold with a bit of scrutiny, and after a while, he gathered his clothes and got out of bed.
A dark shadow appeared in front of the window out of nowhere, reflected in the moonlight as a shadow of teeth and claws.
"Why didn't he die?"
Helian Yi walked to the soft couch and leaned on it, his posture was lazy and casual.
The black shadow kneeling on the ground said hoarsely: "The subordinates are useless, please punish the lord." ”
"I know your ability very well, this person has no background, he is really a humble scholar, and it is strange that he can survive from you." She chuckled, her voice no longer clear and elegant, but a little deeper.
"If your subordinates are guilty, please punish them." The black shadow knelt motionlessly in the same place.
"That's it, this person is quite obedient, the left and right are just for others to see, and it is troublesome to kill, since he is sensible, let him live for the time being."
"Yes."
"Go and get the punishment yourself."
"Yes."
……
This night Shen Lian slept very deeply, and was woken up by the maidservant before dawn the next day, looking at the dark sky outside the house, Shen Lian's whole person was going to be depressed, but people had to bow their heads under the eaves, even if they were sleepy, they had to get up and wash.
Just because she needed to go over and serve before the emperor had breakfast.
What a wickedness!
When it was all over, the sky was just dark, Shen Lian yawned and followed the maidservant into the flower hall.
The breakfast has been arranged, and there is a whole large table of dishes, from steamed buns and porridge to all kinds of chicken, duck, fish, meat, vegetables, and fresh fruits, but there are dozens of plates for a breakfast, which is simply outrageously extravagant.
Shen Lian's eyes were tight, and she only hoped that Helian Yi would come early so that she could eat quickly, and when she was dizzy from hunger, Emperor Huaqin finally arrived.
"Good morning, Your Highness." Shen Lian immediately bowed when he saw someone.
Even if Helian Yi is now her wife, there is still a difference between the monarch and the minister, Helian Yi is the king, she is the minister, and the etiquette that should be observed cannot be left behind at all.
Helian Yi bowed his head slightly, and sat down under the service of the servant.
Her complexion looks better today than yesterday, even though her face is still pale, her lips are much more ruddy, and her spirit is better than yesterday.
Shen Lian patronized and watched, but the sudden gurgling sound of his stomach attracted the attention of everyone in the hall, including Emperor Huaqin, who was raising a chopsticks to prepare for dinner.
"The minister is rude, Your Highness, don't blame ......" Shen Lian's face suddenly turned red, and he didn't think of how to explain it after holding his abdomen for a long time, but he was so anxious that even the roots of his ears were red.
Helian Yi pursed his lips and smiled, and beckoned casually: "That's it, let's sit down and use it together." ”
Shen Lian only felt that she had no face to see people, and the image of a gentleman she had worked so hard to set up yesterday was estimated to be nothing.
"Yesterday, the horses were busy all day, and the water and rice must have not entered, and today it is so early, it should be hungry."
Shen Lian silently recited a sentence of disobedience in his heart, but his body was already sitting in his seat honestly.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness." She didn't forget to praise the other party a little.
Shen Lian felt that she was also a woman, she should know how to smooth her hair, women, whether ancient or modern, would like beautiful things, like to be praised by others, and like to be taken care of, as long as she grasped the proportions, the future life in this horse mansion should not be too difficult.
"There are no rules in this palace, so there is no need to be so formal." Helian Yi chuckled and took the jade chopstick for himself and used it.
After Shen Lian glanced at it twice, he felt that he should not be too scrupulous, so he also picked up the jade chopsticks and started eating.
The breakfast was relatively light, but it tasted very good, and Shen Lian forgot his identity a little while eating, and he didn't even notice when Helian Yi stopped to see her.
The servant girl standing on the side intended to come forward to remind her, but she waved her hand to stop it, and watched Shen Lian inhale it with interest.
Shen Lian's appearance is very handsome, and even has a kind of vague gender beauty, coupled with the perennial reading has a weak bookish air in his body, his body is slender and slender, and he stands there quietly, and anyone feels that this person should be a gentleman like a bamboo and an orchid.
But this person is a little different from what she investigated, not only a little different, but also a big one.
stared at Shen Lian's agitated cheeks with interest, and wanted to poke it with some itching.
Xu had been staring at the time for a long time, and Shen Lian finally noticed something unusual, and looked at her with his cheeks puffed out, just as he saw Helian Yi squinting his eyes and smiling at her.
"Ahem...... Ahem, ahem! ”
Shen Lian was taken aback and almost choked himself.
"The palace is almost used, so I won't accompany the horse, and the horse will be at its own convenience." After Helian Yi chuckled, he stood up and left directly, even with more than half of the people in the flower hall.
Shen Lian hurriedly stood up and gave him his hand, wanting to say something, but his mouth was full of food, and he worked hard for a long time before he vaguely spit out the word emperor.
When she finished speaking, everyone was gone.
The probe saw that he really couldn't see anyone, so Shen Lian swallowed the food in his mouth with difficulty and sat back at the table.
Without Helian Yi by her side, she was much less stressed, and she would not let go of the luxurious breakfast on the table, so she didn't dare to clip it, even if she leaned out half of her body, she had to clip it into the bowl and eat it.
When the sky was already bright after eating and drinking, Shen Lian called the maidservant and asked, "Where did the emperor go?" ”
The maidservant said respectfully, "The emperor went to the palace." ”
Shen Lian scratched her head, it stands to reason that she needs to see her in-laws on the first day of her wedding, she is already Gao Pan when she marries Emperor Huaqin, and it must be impossible for Emperor Huaqin to descend to see Shen's mother, so doesn't it mean that she won't have anything to do in the next two days?
That's a good feeling!
But you have to check first.
Thinking of this, Shen Lian grabbed the maidservant again and asked tentatively, "Then I...... Anything else? ”
The maidservant replied, "The emperor has explained that the concubine is in the house. ”
After getting the exact reply, Shen Lian was immediately overjoyed, since Helian Yi did not restrict her freedom, then she must first report peace to Shen's mother.
Thinking of this, Shen Lian hurriedly returned to the room to write a letter, did not write anything related to last night, only reported peace and praised Emperor Huaqin, and after writing it, he put it in an envelope and handed it to his subordinates to send to the Shen Mansion.
After all, the Pony Mansion is not her territory, and at this glance, she knows that Emperor Hua Qin has already taken over this place, and it is full of her people inside and out, and the content of the letter will probably leak out, if she writes something inappropriate, then her life in the Pony Mansion will probably not be easy in the future.
After doing this, Shen Lian was completely relaxed, Helian Yi never returned to the house all day, she wandered around the huge mansion by herself, slept when she was tired, and ate when she woke up, decadent and happy.
