Chapter Seventy-Nine: Waiting for the Rabbit

After lying in bed for a few days, I was finally able to get out of bed and walk around. When I first recovered from a serious illness, I set my first goal: no matter what happened in the future, I would not torture myself anymore!

The queen came almost every day these days and told me something about what I didn't have. Gossip is commonplace, and I can only listen.

Biluo still looks at me unpleasantly, and I can't wait to turn into a tiger and eat me in one bite.

I don't bother to bother with her.

King Xia had already sent someone to spread the word and asked me to move into his side hall, and when my body was fully recovered, I would pay the salute. After the ceremony, the relationship between Xia and Huaqiao became a family.

I pretended not to know and asked the queen why she wanted me to go to the side hall, and she said that it was King Xia who valued me and made me cherish it.

I...... Ay! How exactly can you escape?

The side hall is about 200 steps behind the main hall, the king of Xia is in the main hall on weekdays, and the study is discussed, and the side hall is always empty, and sometimes it is also the residence of foreign envoys.

The queen sent some servants and servants to take charge of the daily cleaning of the side hall, and specially arranged for a maid to take care of my daily life.

This maid's name is Zhiqing, fifteen years old, and she just entered the palace last month.

"Zhiqing, your name is so nice, who gave it to you?"

"If you go back to the princess, your father took it."

"Father Ling must be a learned person, otherwise how could he have chosen such a nice name."

"Don't hide it from the princess, my father used to be a teacher in Chengdongqiao, and many children outside the city heard about my father's reputation and came to visit."

I asked suspiciously, "Since Father Ling is a teacher, the family should be able to get by, why did he send you to the palace to suffer this hardship?" ”

The smile on Zhiqing's face gradually faded and became gloomy, "My father suddenly got a serious illness, there was no cure, and he died in the middle of the year. In order to treat his father's illness, he spent all the family's savings, and his mother can barely survive by guarding a few fields. I was the only daughter in the family, and my mother asked me to enter the palace to serve the master for a few years, and when I left the palace at the age of twenty, I would have the money to buy a dowry, and then I would find a good man to marry. ”

Unexpectedly, Zhiqing is also a hard-working person.

"Zhiqing, don't call me a princess in private in the future. My name is Onkyo, and I'm two years older than you, so you can call me sister or call me girl, okay? ”

Zhiqing laughed and said, "What the girl says, it's what it is." ”

When I was in Huaqiao Kingdom, I saw them go to the early dynasty. As soon as the palace door opened, all the courtiers rushed in, crossed the terrace, entered the main hall, and waited for the emperor.

It's the same with Xia Guo.

During the days when I lived in the side hall, I was awakened by the sound of a bell every morning, and then the palace door opened, and soon I heard a mockery in the distance, and the ministers were walking towards the main hall. Every now and then, I get up and freshen up, and it's the same today.

If nothing else, just to be able to see Xia Ning. However, I didn't see him for a few days.

I paced back and forth outside the palace, and I didn't see the master of the main palace here every day, except for the servants who did the cleaning. Presumably, the court discussion place can't let the harem concubines trespass.

As I had done a few days before, I sat on a stone bench in the pavilion and looked at the main hall in front of me.

I don't see Xia Ning.

Isn't he the crown prince of the Xia Kingdom? Why don't you go to the early court?

was stunned, Zhiqing walked over, "Girl, come into the house, it's windy." The girl's illness has not yet been cured, and if she is cold, how can she be cured? ”

Zhiqing helped me to walk back, and asked, "Why do girls sit here every day and watch them go to the morning court?" What's so good about men's affairs? ”

I let out a long sigh and didn't speak.

At this time, two palace maids came from the opposite side, one of them talking one by one.

"Today in the great hall, the king was angry, and frightened me to death, and almost knocked over the water. Thankfully, God forbid, otherwise my life would have been lost......"

"The king is rarely angry on weekdays, but what is he doing today?"

"Don't you know? King Ning hasn't been to the morning court for several days, and a few days ago he told him that he was sick, and the king specially sent a royal physician to treat King Ning, guess what the doctor said? ”

"How?"

The doctor said that King Ning was not sick, although his qi pulse was a little weak, but there was no problem with going to the court. The king thought that if King Ning was not feeling well, he could rest at home for a few days, but yesterday the queen said that King Ning was practicing swords in his palace! Today, King Ning did not come to the early court, and the king was angry, and asked King Ning why he did not come to the court every day, and no one in the palace knew the reason, so the king sent someone to pass the word and asked King Ning to come to the study as soon as possible after the dispersal of the dynasty, which calmed down. ”

"It's strange to say, I've never seen King Ning like this."

"No, it scared the hell out of me just now! In the future, I will serve by the king's side, and I will have to cheer up my spirits, and my heart is still pounding! ”

"Let's go quickly, I'll go to the study later!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Hurry up, hurry up, go away! ”

Why didn't Xia Ning go to court these days?

Looking at the distant backs of the two palace maids, I asked, "Zhiqing, have you seen King Ning?" ”

Zhiqing said: "The girl said that she laughed, how could a person like a slave and maid have ever seen King Ning...... It's just that when I first entered the palace, I heard that King Ning Palace had added a little heir, presumably, it was the heir of His Royal Highness King Ning. ”

What the? Xia Ning has a baby?

Not only did he have a wife, but he also had children?

Onkyo, are you going to die now? What exactly are you expecting?

He had a wife and children. Do you know that you are superfluous in this world now? There's a well outside the palace gate, so you can just jump into it!

What face do you have to think about seeing him again?

Why does my heart hurt so much? So sour?

He must have loved his wife very much, otherwise, how could they have children?

"Girl, what's wrong with you? Why are you stunned? ”

"Zhiqing, I want to be quiet in the pavilion, you leave me alone."

With that, I walked towards the pavilion.

Zhiqing said, "Then I'll go and get a coat for the girl, so that she won't get cold." ”

"Go ahead."

The wind is slightly cool, and the dew is frosty.

Xia Ning, what the hell am I expecting?

After sitting for a while, there was a rush of footsteps in the distance.

"Hurry up, hurry up! Can you afford the delay? ”

From a distance, more than a dozen palace maids were trotting in two rows with tea and pastries. The little eunuch at the forefront, carrying an incense burner in his hand, wiped his sweat while holding the top of the stove, for fear that something would go wrong. The leading palace maid doesn't need to look to know that it is the big maid next to the queen's mother, Biluo.

"I don't know what's the use of you minions! On weekdays, one is faster than the other, how can you do things so hard! Bi Luo scolded as he walked, and these palace maids all lowered their heads one by one, not daring to say anything.

What is the origin of this blue basket, even if she relies on the queen to support her, she has no one in her eyes!
