Chapter 7: The Night Guarded by the Golden Guards
Jin Bei's face suddenly became cold and awe-inspiring under the candlelight, and there was an irresistible majesty in his eyes, "Your Highness, please accompany the prince nearby." The implication is, "Don't push me to push you." ”
Lianyi also realized it instantly. Maybe because of drinking, I lost my sense of proportion. Don't say useless things, don't do useless things. My father said, "Seek government in his position", and this is true for officials, for peddlers, pawns, old people and children, or for a woman. But every person has a role and a life, just sing according to the record book in his hand, which is the way to cultivate oneself and save trouble for others and oneself.
She lowered her eyebrows, her face was calm and indifferent, she sat lightly on the edge of the bed, took off the pair of barley beige shoes, Jin Bei quickly bowed over, cleaned them up, and placed them there.
"It's hard for this man, doing the work of a eunuch." Lianyi thought so, raised her legs and went to bed, seeing a huge painting bed, the prince Chen Yu was lying in the middle of a "big" shape, no matter left or right, there was not much space. Jin Bei was just about to speak, but Lianyi turned his back to him, didn't turn his head, and stretched out his right hand into the air to stop him: "Jin Guard, you are busy with you, I will take care of the things in bed myself." ”
The words were a bit rough, but in fact, including Jin Bei, the soldiers present also understood that Xu Lianyi did not mean to be obscene, and was just talking about sleeping.
This sentence, she said in a calm but authoritative tone, and for the first time, she took out the concubine's money.
"Yes." Jin Bei said. Retreated to the side, blowing out the two largest candlesticks near the painting bed.
Now, the soldiers also retreated one after another, leaving only Jin Bei and the other three, standing at the bedroom door where they had just entered, still keeping their promises, staring at Lianyi.
There were two weakly lit oil lamps left in the room, shining on the soft and boneless backs in their eyes, she pulled another quilt under Chen Yu's feet, covered herself, and slowly lay down beside Chen Yu. If it weren't for the black hair like clouds, if it weren't for the cold white face, her body would be covered by a big quilt, and it would be like nothing. It's like a dream.
Lianyi couldn't sleep.
The face is calm, and the heart is simply turbulent. Big things, small things, all work together, take turns, and go over and over again in my heart: at home, my parents and relatives don't know how worried, I'm afraid they are all crying and red-eyed, and no one is going to send a letter; Beside me, this drunk and lying prince will not say anything when he wakes up, how to eat tomorrow morning? How to wash? What are the things that can't be put on the table, such as: people are in a hurry, defecation and drowning, how is it good?
She was agitated, drank again, and felt a wave of heat coming. However, she didn't tear off the quilt. Because, she could feel that Jin Bei was watching her. She's going to pretend she's asleep. Lianyi controlled herself, not only did she breathe calmly and evenly, but her eyelids didn't move.
Such a chaotic mind flew in the Lianyi alarm clock for nearly half an hour, and was pressed down by her ruthless heart. "If you don't say it's useless, don't do it, then why think about it's useless? Now, you need to be clear about what you do and what you can do. ”
After asking herself a question, Lian Yi's first thought came to her mind, and sure enough, it was: "You can't just go to bed like this." ”
The crown prince's side concubine is also a concubine, and the decision, dowry, holy decree, and ceremony must be indispensable. Today, it's the opposite. If you want to say that these mundane things can not be cared about, it can be done with a man's heart, but Chen Yu has no heart for Lianyi? He is inferior to the cats and dogs in the houses of ordinary rich and noble people.
Lianyi's thoughts, now, are really calm, now that the first goal is there, let's think of a way.
Just after the hour, Jin Bei saw Lianyi push away the quilt, sat up elegantly and slowly, his eyes flowed, and he looked at him unhurriedly, "Jin Guard." ”
"Yes."
Jin Bei agreed in a low voice, walked towards the painting bed, and before he stopped, he heard Lianyi say word by word: "I'm here for the moon." ”
"Huh?"
Rao is Jin Bei is well-informed, calm and serious, and he has indeed never dealt with such a thing. It's not that he doesn't understand women, and it's not that he doesn't have a woman of his own, but when they are uncomfortable, where do they need to serve themselves, not to mention - the one in front of him is someone else's woman!
In the faint candlelight, Jin Bei and Lianyi looked at each other for a moment.
Lianyi was on the offensive, moved her body to the edge of the bed, stretched out her feet and groped under the bed for the shoes that Jinbei was responsible for, put them on, stood up, and walked towards Jinbei.
Jin Bei searched in his mind and felt that dealing with women was more troublesome than arranging troops - "dealing with women", these four words also appeared for the first time in his 22-year-old life. With his background, position, ability, and appearance, it has always been a woman who ponders how to get him.
But as a forbidden army, no one can lose, Jin Bei suppressed the idea of "trying to retreat" that even surprised himself, and bowed, "Your Highness, then, what do you need?" ”
"Hot water, new clothes, grass ash belt." Lianyi paused.
What is quite amazing is that Jin Bei is not in a hurry to agree, it is almost doubtful that he can feel the heart wave and rhythm of Lianyi, knowing that His Royal Highness the side concubine has something to say later.
"Also, please ask the Jin guards to prepare a house, and don't let the filth disturb the purity of the prince."
"Yes! Your Highness, please! ”
Jin Bei withdrew his body to the side and made way for Lianyi, who didn't know what this sentence meant, so he just walked towards the door.
Suddenly his temperature shrouded behind him, and his shoulders sank, it turned out that Jin Bei had found a coat to put on Lianyi. It was indeed cold in the middle of the night at the end of spring, Jin Bei's arm was half a ring to protect her, and one of the other three soldiers opened the door and let the two of them out.
Because Jin Bei had been silent, Lian Yi couldn't hold his breath and opened his mouth, "It's too late, isn't it good to go to the crown princess to ask for east and west?" ”
"Don't worry, no."
After Jin Bei finished speaking, he had already walked through some rooms and corridors where soldiers were standing guard everywhere with Lianyi, and turned into a small and delicate room. Jin Bei lit the candlestick and explained to Lianyi, "I have learned about this house, it was lived by Manzhu, the daughter of Her Royal Highness Princess Rouxi's confidant palace before, what about the hot water, someone will send it in a while, other objects, don't be dirty, you will look for it-"
"Nonsense!" Lianyi interrupted Jin Bei's words, "Do you understand?" Can you serve me? Clothes are those that can endure wearing others, and do you know what the grass ash belt is? It's my sister who used it, I can't use it, let alone the next person! ”
Jin Bei didn't answer him, walked to the wardrobe next to the bed and opened the drawers and flipped it up, and after a while, he took out a small lotus lotus-colored burden and showed it to her in front of Lianyi, who looked angry, "This is newly made." Looking at the material, it is all satin. Come to think of it, even the needlework used by Her Royal Highness Princess Rouxi is also from this Manzhu girl. You pick, if you can use it, you can use it, otherwise, the minister will naturally go to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess to ask for it. ”
Lianyi really couldn't stand a big man holding a bag of women's menstrual supplies and asking himself a lot of words, and his anger disappeared, "Oh", he took his big hand and quickly covered the burden indiscriminately, "Okay, Jin Guard, you found it well, just use this." ”
Jin Bei didn't care, "You wait a minute, the minister will look for it, maybe there are new clothes, you are noble, you really can't wear old clothes." ”
He handed over the burden to Lianyi, turned around by himself, and went diligently to find something. Someone knocked on the door and came in, and three soldiers came in, holding copper basins, Teng pots, and hand towels - Jin Bei's men are not small, and they seem to have gradually adapted to this courtyard, and they can change their ways to get out.
Jin Bei took another burden over, handed it to Lianyi to check, poured the water himself, put it on the ground, and ordered the three soldiers to go out first.
There are indeed new silk pants in this baggage, Lianyi looked at Jin Bei and had no intention of leaving, this time she was really anxious, "What, do you still want to continue to stare from beginning to end?" ”
