"Little Pony, if you add more charcoal, why is it so cold in the house?" Xiaotang barely supported himself to get up from the bed, and saw a little guy coming in with a charcoal basin, but there was still no temperature in the room, Xiaotang wanted to hug his knees to keep warm, but found that his fingers were so swollen that he couldn't bend.

"Xiaotang, we don't have a charcoal fire, I'll give you a pot of firewood." The pony kept his head down and kept fanning the wind into the basin, but the burning hay was quickly extinguished, and the few pieces of hardwood showed no sign of being wanted, only wisps of green smoke rising.

"Ahem...... How could there be no charcoal fire? Yesterday I saw that there were two baskets of red charcoal in the firewood room! Xiaotang choked on the smoke and had a sore throat, and it took a long time to ease up, leaning on the edge of the bed, and his body was cold and weak.

The pony hesitated and said, "Yes...... The crown princess, the princess said that Liangdi had not returned, and all the people who came to the palace were subordinates, and the subordinates were not worthy of using this red basket of charcoal, so they all took it back, and now we can only rely on these woods for heating. ”

"I ...... I'm going to find the princess theory, how can this be, Mama Zhang and Neng Rong? Xiaotang forced herself to get out of bed, but fell to the ground when she landed on her feet, her feet were swollen like a boat, and she couldn't support her body to stand up at all.

Seeing this, Xiao Mazi hurriedly put down the charcoal basin and ran over, not caring about the difference between men and women, slowly helped Xiaotang up, and supported Xiaotang back to the bed with his shoulders.

"Xiaotang, we are all slaves, and what we say is naturally weightless, so you can bear with it first, and wait for Liangdi to come back. As for Mama Zhang and Nengrong, because they were so cold last night, they are getting old again, and the chilblains on their hands and feet are much more serious than yours, and now it is difficult to even get up while lying in bed. Pony said as he pulled the futon again.

Xiaotang's two lines of tears crossed his cheeks, and he was extremely aggrieved in his heart, and said with emotion: "Since the crown princess came back from the Mulan paddock, she has been against us everywhere, I really don't know if this little life can be taken until Liangdi comes back." ”

"Bah, good and decent, how can you say such frustrating words? When the master comes back, he will definitely support us, besides, you are injured, don't you have a few of us to take care of you! Xiao Mazi snorted a few times into the air, placed Xiao Tang in place, and turned to light the fire again.

Knock knock~

Xiaotang's door was knocked on, and it was Cai'er standing outside the door.

"I am ordered by the crown princess to send you some medicine for chilblains." Cai'er said, holding up a small green porcelain vase half the size of a palm in her tray.

"Thank you for the kindness of the crown princess, the slave maid understands it, such a good medicine slave maid is not worthy of use." Xiaotang refused, then looked at Cai'er and said word by word.

"It's your business whether you need it or not, anyway, I put this medicine here, and now that Imperial Doctor Jiang is not in the East Palace, you can't stand up by yourself." Cai'er said that, regardless of Xiaotang's repeated obstructions, she put the medicine on the table, and then lame, and went to give the medicine to Nengrong and Mama Zhang.

"What's wrong with your leg?" Nengrong was lying on the bed, drinking the thin rice porridge sent by the little maid, and when he looked up, he saw Cai'er limping in, frowning and asking.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing, but I didn't pay attention to keeping warm, and I got a few chilblains on my feet. I won't tell you, I'll put this chilblain medicine on the table, you remember to wipe it on time in the morning and evening. Cai'er said, turned around and walked out slowly.

Neng Rong looked at her legs, and his brow furrowed even deeper. Putting down the porridge in his hand, he said suspiciously: "She is the personal maid of the crown princess, but a first-class maid, how can she not freeze her when she is cold, and besides, I saw her in the second half of the night last night, why is she lame now?" ”

On the way back to Qifeng Palace, Cai'er walked back with her hands on the wall.

"Have you given them all the medicine?" Back at Qifeng Palace, Li Xin'er just got up, sat lazily in front of the dresser, waiting for the combing grandmother to come and serve, through the layers of gauze curtains, seeing Cai'er coming back, she turned everyone away and asked.

"It's all given, as for whether they will use it, the slave doesn't know." Because of the events in the second half of last night, Cai'er was a little more afraid of Li Xin'er, and when she replied, her whole body only revealed a sense of shrinkage.

"It's good to give it, they don't need me to give it, it's hard to see a panacea from the sky!" Li Xin'er said that, and waved her hand impatiently at Cai'er, and said, "Go down and call the grandmother who combed her hair in." ”

Cai'er replied respectfully yes, and bowed back again.

"Your legs ......" Li Xin'er said worriedly when she saw Cai'er's limping legs.

"If you go back to the crown princess, it's not in the way." Cai'er turned her head and was about to withdraw after replying, when Li Xin'er spoke again.

"Wait, I didn't mean to punish you, Cai'er, you have to know that you were the one who hid from me and was good to them first, and secretly let them go back in advance, and I was so angry for a while." Li Xin'er still felt guilty in her heart.

Cai'er shook her head, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "They are also slaves, and Cai'er also feels that they are pitiful, so they are soft-hearted for a while." "If you slap someone and give a candy to eat, then she can't eat the candy.

When Li Xin'er heard this, she was a little angry in her heart, but she endured it when she looked at Cai'er's legs, and said, "They are pitiful, aren't I pitiful when I was driven back by the queen?" Who's going to help me? ”

The smile on Cai'er's face deepened, but it was a sarcastic smile, and said: "So the slave and maid have come to their senses, they are all poor people, it is better to help the party that is good for them." ”

Li Xin'er really thought that Cai'er had figured it out, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, you are on the same team as me, I will naturally be good to you, I'm sorry for what happened last night, thank you for the medicine you gave today." ”

Cai'er looked at the simplicity that Li Xin'er finally showed, and actually apologized to herself, and was stunned for a while before slowly turning around and leaving.

Does Li Xin'er know about her family? Cai'er thought, and her heart began to tangle.

In the Joy Palace, because Xiaotang Nengrong and Mama Zhang couldn't even get out of bed, the remaining young guys and little guys were also busy all the time, living and cooking, cleaning and pouring tea and water, and doing rough work together.

"Xiaotang, don't be stubborn, it will hurt you if you take some medicine, what do you see your hands and feet are swollen?" Xiao Mazi just lit a fire all morning, her white face was smoked blue, black, and she didn't have much patience at the moment, so she directly gave Xiaotang the medicine and put it on the bedside table where she could.

"What good things will the crown princess send, I don't need it!" Xiaotang pouted, turned over, and pretended to close his eyes and fall asleep.
