Chapter 32: Atonement for the rest of your life
The matter of the prison walking in the water soon reached the ears of Emperor Wan's concubine.
All the noisy sounds distorted in this fire, people's sense of terror and tension were infinitely amplified, and the red light burning in the darkness was like a call signal from death.
In addition, she has already sent someone to strangle Lotus Heart with white silk, and with this water walk, Lotus Heart will definitely not survive.
Emperor Wan's concubine thought that Lianxin was really dead, so the big stone in her heart was also put down.
Emperor Wan's concubine thought that since Lianxin was dead, her father and mother should also be buried for Lianxin. Let Aunt Su personally lead people and kill Lianxin's father.
As soon as Aunt Su entered the room, she recognized at a glance that it was not Lianxin's father.
"Come, bring them out." Aunt Su shouted.
The guards then brought out the caged man.
"Who are they?" Aunt Su said to the guards guarding them.
The guard calmly said, "Aren't they Lianxin's father?" ”
Aunt Su walked over and slapped each of them, "They are Lianxin's parents, are you blind or am I blind?" ”
The four guards guarding Lianxin's father and mother couldn't believe it, and looked at each other, "How is this possible, no one has ever come." One of the guards said.
Two other guards were also saying that no one had been here, and one was pondering memories.
"No, someone has been here. Late at night before Princess North was about to be beheaded, the four of us fainted for no reason. The reminiscing guard said.
As soon as the guard spoke, the other three guards remembered, "Yes, yes, it's the last few days." They said in unison.
"Why don't you report it?" Aunt Su scolded.
"We haven't met Lianxin's father and mother either, and we weren't the ones who brought them food. When I saw someone there, I thought it was Lianxin's father. And it's not the only one who delivers them meals every day. One of the guards explained.
Aunt Su sneered at the guard who explained, "If you lose it, take your head and explain it to Niangniang!" ”
"Come on, take the four of them away." Aunt Su shouted.
And those who pretended to be Lianxin's father and mother were also taken away.
When they went to the Mianwan Palace, one of them took out a handful of smoke and stunned Aunt Su and the four guards.
After they stunned them, they left the Mianwan Palace and returned to the North Palace.
——
Beiran brought Lotus Heart back to the palace, and before returning to the palace, Lotus Heart bought a mask at the market.
After arriving at the palace and before getting off the carriage, Lianxin put on the mask.
Before entering the palace, "Are you sure you want to stay by her side as a lotus heart?" Beiran asked.
Lianxin didn't hesitate at all, and nodded firmly, "I'm sure." ”
Bei Ran would ask Lian Xin this sentence because he knew that Nangong was very shrewd. If Lianxin can't completely lose those habits she once had, Nangong Tingyu will soon recognize it.
Beiran took the lotus heart back to the Shenxi Palace, and at this time, Nangong was reading a book.
Nangong was reading a book in the hall, the door was open, and the sun was shining brightly, shining into the room.
Beiran walked in with Lianxin, reflecting the shadow in the sun.
Nangong saw that there was a shadow, so he looked up and saw that it was Beiran and a woman.
Nangong Tilt put down the book in his hand and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Bei Ran glanced at the book on the table, "Your hands are not good yet, why don't you rest well?" ”
"It's boring anyway, just read the book, your hands don't get in the way, just flip through the book."
Nangong Tianyu saw that there was another woman next to Beiran, so she asked, "Who is she?" ”
"She's the handmaid I found for you. Now Shu Yao has also been titled and given the pavilion, and you don't have a personal maid by your side. Beiran explained.
Nangong Qian nodded, "There are not too few personal maids, so let's stay!" ”
Bei Ran knew that Lianxin would take care of her, but she still had to do superficial work.
"Take good care of the princess."
"Yes, lord."
After Beiran left, Nangong Tianyu was very curious about why she was wearing a mask.
"What's your name?"
"Back to the princess, the slave is called Lianxin."
When Nangong heard the word "lotus heart", she chuckled in her heart.
"Your name is Lianxin?" Nangong asked in disbelief.
Lianxin nodded.
"Why are you wearing a mask?"
"Back to the princess, the slave maid accidentally scratched her face by a porcelain piece when she was a child, so she has been wearing a mask since then."
Nangong poured out a soft "oh".
"In the future, you will be responsible for the daily life, food, and clothing of the palace. If there is anything you don't know or don't understand, you should ask the shrine in time. ”
"Yes, Princess."
"Alright, you can stand aside first!"
After finishing speaking, Nangong Tianxuan carefully picked up the book in his hand and continued to read.
Although Nangong is reading a book on the surface, she is actually thinking about Lianxin.
She obviously asked Beiran to find someone to look at the prison and look at Lianxin. In the end, unexpectedly, the prison was flooded, and no prisoner in the prison survived.
Now Beiran has found another servant girl, also named Lianxin. Is it really such a coincidence?
Although she knows that she is not the only one in this world who is called Lianxin. But that's a coincidence, isn't it?
Anyway, since she is also called Lianxin, it is assumed that Lianxin is looking for someone to take care of her under the spring.
Lianxin knew that Nangong was very shrewd, and she would recognize a person by her demeanor, including the timbre of her speech. So she made her voice a little different from before. It's just a little different, but it shouldn't be noticed.
——
After the two people who pretended to be Lianxin's father and mother stunned Aunt Su and the others for two hours, Aunt Su and the others woke up.
After they woke up, the two people who pretended to be Lianxin's father and mother had already run away.
Aunt Su thought to herself: Oh no, Lianxin's father and mother are gone, and now they can't even pretend to be gone. How do you explain it to your mother.
"Let's go." Aunt Su shouted.
After they went to the Mianwan Palace, Aunt Su didn't know what to say.
"Aunt Su, this palace asked you to bring someone over, it's been two hours." Emperor Wanfei said unhurriedly.
"Back to Niangniang, Lianxin's father and mother were rescued as early as the day before Nangong Tilting was beheaded. After being rescued, two people pretending to be Lianxin's father stayed in the cage all the time. Just two hours ago, he stunned us with a fog of smoke, fled, fled. ”
Aunt Su was very flustered in her heart.
"Escaped?" Emperor Wan said very coldly.
Aunt Su nodded in a panic, "Yes." ”
Emperor Wan's concubine was silent for a while, "Don't chase it yet." "Scolded.
"Yes, sissy."
Aunt Su hurriedly sent someone to chase after her.
I've been on the run for two hours, and it's harder to chase it back than to climb to the sky. I don't even know who they are.
After the two escaped, they returned to the palace and found Beiran.
"Lord Wang, Emperor Wan's concubine already knows that Lianxin's father and mother have been rescued." One of them said.
Beiran nodded, "Got it, you guys retreat!" ”
After the two of them left Fuyuan Pavilion, they returned to their posts, what should they do.
After they left, Beiran smiled and said to himself, "I found out so late." ”
——
A month later
Nangong tilted his fingers and applied the ointment for a whole month before he got better.
In the past month, Lianxin applied medicine to Nangong on time every day and changed her gauze.
Every day, Lianxin will make a lot of delicious food for Nangong, including her favorite osmanthus cake and rose cake.
She loves to eat osmanthus cake and rose cake, only Shu Yao knows.
The reason why Lianxin knew that Nangong Tanyu loved to eat osmanthus cake and rose cake was because she knew it when she was monitored every day at that time.
This morning, Lianxin brought osmanthus cake and rose cake to Nangong and poured it.
Nangong Tilting was also very curious about how Lianxin knew, so she asked, "Lianxin, this palace has wanted to ask you for a long time, how did you know that this palace loves to eat osmanthus cakes and rose cakes?" ”
"Many people love to eat osmanthus cake and rose cake, and the slave maid is also good at making osmanthus cake and rose cake, and I want to make some for the princess to eat. It's just that I didn't expect that when I made it for the first time, the princess had eaten it all, so the slave remembered that you love to eat. Lianxin explained.
Lianxin guessed that Nangong Tilting would ask, so she thought about how to explain it in advance.
Nangong Qian nodded, "I see." ”
Lianxin whispered "En".
"What will you do?" Nangong pours out every day.
"I know some martial arts, and I love to cook." Lianxin said.
Nangong Tian's eyes lit up when she heard Lianxin say that she knew martial arts.
"Do you know martial arts?!" Nangong was a little surprised.
Lianxin nodded, "Yes." ”
Lotus Heart martial arts is naturally good, after all, he has been trained for two years.
"Since you can, why don't you teach Hongu!" Nangong said with a smile.
"Princess, the slave and maid are only fur, and they can't teach the princess." Lianxin declined.
"Yes, some fur, that too."
"Why don't you ask for a master! After all, the master is more professional. ”
Nangong hesitated for a moment, "It's okay." ”
Lianxinxin: Is it so easy to speak?
"Okay, I'll tell you when the slave and maid have found a master." Lianxin said with a smile.
Nangong poured out a soft "en".
Lianxin didn't find a master so quickly, because she was tortured and didn't recover so quickly.
——
Shu Yao is immersed in learning all day long, learning day after day.
She used to be eager to learn. But now I have to learn so many things at once, and some of them are not interesting and boring.
And she hasn't gone back to the North Palace's Mansion to find Nangong for a long time, and she misses it very much.
She began to miss the days in the Beiwang Mansion before, although she was a maidservant at that time, but because of Nangong's presence, life would not be so boring and boring.
"Mama, can I skip class today?" Shu Yao asked.
The grandmother shook her head, "Princess Xu Ming, the task of the old slave is to let the princess make up for the knowledge she failed to learn in the past." If you don't go to class for a day, you will have to spend more time making up for it in the future. Mama said patiently.
"But Mama, it's so boring." Shu Yao said coquettishly.
This grandmother was not so strict, "Princess, if you don't learn again, you really won't be able to finish learning." ”
"Mama~~~~~~~" Shuyao took Mama's hand and kept shaking and shaking, trying to make Mama let her go with coquettishness.
Mama ruthlessly let go of Shu Yao's hand, "Princess, you have learned today's content well, can't you go play?" ”
"How can I finish this!"
Mama smiled, "The princess will learn by heart, and she will always finish learning." ”
"Oh, Mama, you just let me go for a day!" Shu Yao compared a "one", "just one day, just one day." ”
Mama shook her head, "Princess, the old slave let you go, who let the old slave go?" ”
"Mama, just let Princess Xu Ming go!"
