Chapter 35. Almonds save beauty in water
Almond originally thought that after the draft, the palace would be much more lively.
As a result, there are very few beauties in the harem, and Sheng Jingyu never sets foot in the harem.
It seems that everything is still the same as before, and the so-called draft is just a formality.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather was getting cooler and colder, and the manufacturing office sent almonds a few thickened clothes.
It's just that it seems to be mixed with a women's coat, which should have been accidentally mixed in.
Almond took the coat and went to the office, where everyone was busy.
She found the palace maid who gave her clothes and explained her intentions, and the palace maid picked up the clothes and looked at them, and apologized again and again.
"I'm sorry, my lord, but the slave made a mistake! The slave and maid will be replaced. β
After saying that, she hurriedly stopped her work and was about to take over her clothes.
Almond looked at the palace maid's unfinished work and took a step back.
"No need, I'll send it, you're busy."
The palace maid blushed and whispered, "Thank you, my lord, this is the clothes of the Qin talent." β
Almond was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Qinyin?" β
The palace maid nodded.
"Okay, I got it."
Almond thought that he had nothing to do anyway, and it was nothing to run.
She walked through the Imperial Garden, taking in the views as she went.
At this time, it was dinner time, the sky was slightly dark, and the imperial garden was quiet, and there was no one in it.
I think everyone has a meal, and it is impossible for the harem concubines to hang out at this point.
As he walked, Almond suddenly heard something unusual.
She walked to the rockery by the lotus pond and was curious to find out.
There are two people standing behind the rockery, one is dressed in light green palace clothes, and the other is dressed as a palace maid.
This palace maid Almond also knows that she is the little girl who broke the prince's wine bottle at the celebration banquet.
I saw that this little palace maid was extremely excited at this time, and a pair of big eyes couldn't stop bursting out of tears.
The other woman, with her back to the almond, sighed and hugged the little maid into her arms.
Almond was dumbfounded, and thought that he had seen some terrible secret, but he listened to the woman in the palace costume.
"Sister, you have suffered, and my sister will protect you in the future."
Oh, it turned out to be sisters......
Almond breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she hadn't overheard well and was ready to leave.
But the woman with her back to her turned sideways and let her see her side face clearly.
It's the sound of the piano!
This surprise made Almond accidentally stumble and pounce straight out.
Qin Yin didn't seem to expect that a person would suddenly pounce behind the rockery, and he was so frightened that he took a few steps back.
Almond fell to the ground all of a sudden, and was about to get up to explain, but heard a "poof".
When she looked up, she saw that the sound of the piano had fallen into the water! It's fluttering in the water at this time!
It turned out that Qin Yin subconsciously took a few steps back, but he didn't expect that there was a lotus pond behind him, and he accidentally fell into the water!
All this happened too fast, the little palace maid was still stunned, and she was about to jump down at this time.
"Sister!"
Almond quickly got up and stopped her.
"You're waiting here!"
The little palace maid recognized Almond as the person who had helped her, and with a natural sense of trust in her, she nodded and stood aside obediently.
Almond took off her shoe coat, jumped into the water, and dived to the bottom.
In just a moment, the sound of the piano was already sinking.
When she grabbed Qinyin's wrist and was about to drag it up, she realized that she had overestimated herself.
Almond only knows a little about swimming, and she can swim alone, but it will be a little difficult for her to take another person with her.
But human life is at stake, and she can only do her best.
Fortunately, Qin Yin didn't struggle much, only grabbed her obediently, and didn't add more resistance to her.
When she finally dragged the piano to the shore with all her might, the little palace maid hurriedly pulled them up.
As soon as she came ashore and breathed in the fresh air, the cold wind blew on her almond-soaked clothes, and she couldn't help but sneeze.
Qin Yin coughed a few times, and also relieved himself, and it seemed that there was no major problem.
"Thank you, sir."
Almond is embarrassed, obviously she accidentally scared people down.
"Are you alright? It's me who was too reckless, and I hope people will forgive me. β
As she spoke, she saw that Qin Yin was trembling with her arms around her, so she quickly picked up the coat that was placed on the ground and draped it on Qin Yin's shoulders.
"I'm here to deliver clothes to talented people, but I'm sorry that I accidentally offended talented people."
Hearing this, Qinyin's pale face turned a little ruddy.
She bowed her head and whispered, "Thank you, sir." β
The little palace maid on the side also thanked her repeatedly.
Almonds are soaked all over and should not be left outside for a long time.
She hurriedly put on her coat, exchanged a few words with Qinyin, and then trotted all the way back to Jing'an Palace.
After returning to the room, Almond was very uncomfortable, and he was about to bathe in the water, but suddenly a little eunuch made a voice outside the door.
"Your Majesty, summoned."
Almond responded: "Okay, I'll do it right away!" β
No way, no way to bathe.
She had to hurriedly change into dry clothes and rush to the dormitory.
It's really a coincidence, why did Your Majesty come back so early today?
Almond was puzzled and pushed open the door to the dormitory.
She looked around, there was no figure of Sheng Jingyu, he should be in the inner hall.
Sure enough, Sheng Jingyu was sitting on the bed with her head down, as if she was closing her eyes and recuperating.
Almond walked over and said softly, "Your Majesty, the minions are waiting for you to bathe." β
Sheng Jingyu remained motionless and did not react.
Almond strangely raised her voice and said again.
"Your Majesty, the minions are waiting for you to batheβ"
Before the words fell, Almond suddenly grabbed his arm.
The world swirled, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already lying on the bed, pressed under Sheng Jingyu.
Only then did she see Sheng Jingyu's appearance at this time.
I saw that his eyes were drunk, and his white jade flawless face was dyed red for the first time, and his whole body exuded a smell of wine.
All these signs told Almond that he was drunk!
"Your Majesty, are you drunk? The minions are going to make you some decanting soup. β
Almond tentatively pushed Sheng Jingyu, and seeing that he didn't react, she dared to get out from under him.
As a result, the body was only halfway moved, and it was violently pulled back again, this time even more tightly, leaving no gaps.
"Sleep with me!"
Sheng Jingyu muttered, and hugged the almonds tightly with both hands.
Almond wanted to cry without tears, and she was almost overwhelmed.
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, you loose minion. The minions are going to make you a decanting soup. β
Sheng Jingyu didn't react again, still holding her still.
Almond was helpless and let him hold him for a while.
Suddenly, my brain turned and I thought of a solution.
"Your Majesty, you haven't bathed yet, you can't sleep, and you're sweating...... Dust...... It's dirty. β
Almond said earnestly.
Isn't Your Majesty clean? I used to have to bathe every night.
Hearing her say that now, I definitely can't sit still.
Almond thought about it, and saw Sheng Jingyu slowly open his eyes.
