Chapter Twenty-Nine: Jade Pendant
Some of these things were put down casually by the emperor after two glances, and some took them in their hands and played with them a few times and handed them to Chu Ye beside him: "Ye'er, how about taking a look at these gadgets?" Although Fanbang is not as rich as China's, these things are indeed novel and interesting. ”
Chu Ye took it respectfully, and laughed at the emperor's words, he was born handsome, and there were poems and articles in his belly.
Before leaving, the emperor sent someone to send Chu Ye a lot of novelties.
Chu Ye was actually not very interested in these things, in the emperor's place, he also knew about the usefulness of some of the objects and things inside, although some of them did have some minor uses, but most of them were only for playing.
I don't know if I will like it when I step on the moon for a hundred miles.
However, even someone like my father, who has seen countless treasures, finds these strange things from foreign countries interesting, so she might like it too, right?
Thinking of this, Chu Ye couldn't help but have a smile on his face, he waved his hand, summoned a little eunuch, personally selected a lot of things that looked good and put them in the box, and asked the guard to send them to Baili Treading Moon.
The little eunuch responded, holding the box respectfully, and just about to go out, he was called back again: "You come back first, Gu thought about it again, and felt that it was really inappropriate to let you go." ”
Baili Treading Moon doesn't like people in the royal family, Chu Ye knows it, and the eunuch servants can only be used by people in the palace.
Chu Ye simply changed a guard directly, asked him to change the clothes worn by ordinary little guys, instructed him to send things to Baili Tayue, and specially told the guards not to tell Baili Tayue that these things were sent by him.
The guards received the order and quickly sent all these things to the hands of Baili Treading Moon.
Baili Mansion, Baili Tayue was holding the gadgets sent by Chu Ye in his hand, with a happy and surprised smile in his eyes. The things are full of a box, looking at the novelty and good-looking, a hundred miles of the moon casually twisted up a piece of gem, and played with the pocket watch for a while, it can be seen that it is really happy.
The guard couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that she liked it: "The gift that the master specially selected for Miss Baili, Miss Baili likes it." ”
Baili Tayue nodded: "Thank you for me, master, but I don't know, your master is ......"
The guard vaguely fooled the past, never mentioning Chu Ye's name, but he was immersed in the novelty in his hand and didn't notice it for a while.
The guards who returned to the palace after completing the task happily thought about Chu Ye's return: "Your Highness, Miss Baili likes the gift you give me very much, and she almost can't put it down!" ”
Chu Ye showed a satisfied smile, and he waved his hand in a good mood, and said to the guard: "Well done, reward!" ”
And the party in Baili Mansion stepped on the moon, but he was full of joy and put away all the strange things in the box, and then took them and walked out, thinking as he walked: These gadgets should be very fond of Qianxia, and they are just given to Qianxia to play.
Situ Li, who returned to Situ Mansion, was still the little maid that no one cared about.
When she hadn't seen Chu Ye before, she was still trying her best to get close to him and get out of her current situation. Now because of the falling into the water, she finally has a little relationship with Chu Ye, not to mention that she fought for this relationship by pretending to fall into the water with her life, if she gave up like this, it would be really unwilling.
However, although Chu Ye seems to be gentle, he is actually extremely difficult to get along with, what should he do to continue to get close to him and go further with him?
Situ Li sat silently next to his makeup, looking down at his few jewelry, his eyebrows could see unwillingness and irritability, and finally he seemed to have decided something, and opened the second layer of makeup.
There were a few pieces of broken silver and a few silver tickets with a small denomination, which was the private money she had saved for a long time, Situ Li gritted her teeth, took out all the silver, and prepared to buy some small gifts, and personally sent them to the palace to thank Chu Ye.
In the remaining few days, she carefully chose an extremely good-looking jade pendant, dressed herself up with her heart, and even put on new clothes and a light makeup, and then went out and walked towards the palace.
Although Situ Li was snubbed at home, Situ Lian didn't say anything like not allowing her to go out, so as long as she wanted to go out, it was still very convenient.
The Zhumen Biwa in the palace looked very majestic from a distance, Situ Li was not the first time to come to the palace, but he was still a little nervous.
She held the box containing the jade pendant in her hand, and stepped down from a very ordinary carriage, her steps were very small, and she looked weak and weak.
When I walked to the door, I was unexpectedly stopped by the guards who guarded: "Idle people wait for a detour!" ”
"Two eldest brothers, I am from the Situ family, and I am grateful for the life-saving grace of the eldest prince a few days ago, and I am here to thank you today." As he spoke, Situ Li slightly revealed the box containing the jade pendant in his hand.
The guards at the door looked her up and down a few times, and Situ Li tilted his head slightly, with a pure and kind face, which could arouse the men's desire to protect.
The two guards glanced at each other and nodded: "Unfortunately, Your Highness went out today, Miss Situ will come back another day." ”
Situ Li bit her lip, looking very unwilling, she blessed her body, but she refused: "Thank you two eldest brothers for reminding me, I'll wait for Your Highness." ”
Seeing that she insisted, the two guards didn't say anything, after all, the affairs of these masters were not something that their subordinates could interfere with.
Situ Li waited outside the door for two hours, went out in the morning, and when he saw Chu Ye himself, the sun was already in the west.
But even so, she didn't have the slightest impatience, as soon as Chu Ye's figure appeared, she greeted her with a look of surprise, and her tone was full of admiration: "Your Highness, the courtiers have finally waited for you!" ”
Chu Ye tilted his head in confusion, recognizing that it was the woman who had sunset into the water and was rescued by himself.
Different from the bright and lively moon in a hundred miles, the woman in front of her is more like a delicate and lovely little white flower who needs to be cared for.
It's just that although the beauty is good, she is not the person Chu Ye likes, he stood faintly not far from Situ Li, and said with a smile: "May I ask Miss Situ, but what's the matter?" ”
"The courtiers are here to thank Your Highness!" As she spoke, her face turned red, delicate and gentle, like a delicious dish, tempting people to taste: "Thank Your Highness for saving your life, this is a small gift personally selected by the courtiers for Your Highness, and I hope Your Highness will not dislike it." ”
Situ Li said, took another step forward, walked to Chu Ye's side, and then took out the box that had been hidden in the wide cuffs and opened it, revealing an extremely beautiful piece of jade pendant inside.
For Chu Ye, who is accustomed to seeing all kinds of rare treasures, although this jade pendant is beautiful, its condition is not particularly good, not enough to attract his attention, but after all, it is someone else's heart, he didn't say anything, just a faint excuse: "No need, in that case, no matter who it is, it will not be ignored, it is just a gesture, Miss Situ does not have to take it to heart." ”
After finishing speaking, he looked up at the sky again: "It's not early, I'll send someone to send Miss Situ back." ”
Situ Li saw that not only did he not plan to accept his jade pendant, but also gave the order to expel the guest so decisively, he immediately panicked, and when he looked up again, there were already tears in his eyes: "I know that this jade pendant can't enter His Highness's eyes, but after all, this is the courtier's heart, and His Highness's gesture is a life-saving grace for the courtier......"
She looked a little anxious, her steps couldn't help but get bigger, and when she walked to Chu Ye's side, the tears in her eyes had already wet her face.
Chu Ye was about to excuse himself again, but when he saw Situ Li's eyes roll, the whole person fell softly towards him.
Subconsciously, Chu Ye caught her, and then saw that Situ Li's face, which was still red just now, had become slightly pale at this time, and a pair of good-looking eyes were also tightly closed, and the whole person looked very fragile.
When he was about to go out, Situ Li deliberately poured some incense powder on his body, mixed with the woman's unique aroma, which smelled unexpectedly good.
The warm fragrant nephrite in her arms, the beauty is delicate and fragile, just ask this situation, which man in the world can not be tempted?
Situ Li, who was lying in Chu Ye's arms contentedly and pretending to be dizzy, was a little proud. No matter what happens today, she must brush up on another wave of presence in front of Chu Ye!
At this time, Chu Ye was still a little stunned, he was talking well just now, why did this person faint when he said it?
He held Situ Li in one hand to keep her from falling to the ground, and with the other hand, he took out his token and asked his father-in-law to ask the imperial doctor.
The two guards at the door came over to help with great discernment, and Chu Ye said to the two of them suspiciously: "Are all women in the world like this?" So delicate? ”
The two guards had never married a wife, so naturally they couldn't answer Chu Ye's question, and only said vaguely: "Miss Situ has been waiting for His Royal Highness outside the palace gate for two hours today, maybe she is tired." ”
Hearing these words, Chu Ye's expression was a little moved, and he sent someone to carry Situ Li to the guest room and instructed the palace maid to take care of her.
Because this time the person was in the palace, the journey was not far, and the imperial doctor came relatively quickly. He put down the medicine box with ease, took out a handkerchief and put it on Situ Li's wrist, and carefully checked his pulse.
Although the pulse was a little weak, it was no different from ordinary women, and the imperial doctor couldn't help but wipe the sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and arched his hand to Chu Ye suspiciously: "This girl's body is fine. ”
"Then why did she faint all of a sudden?" After all, he passed out on his own turf, and Chu Ye still felt that it was better to ask clearly.
The imperial doctor really didn't see anything wrong with Situ Li's body, so he had to casually prescribe a medicine suitable for a woman's body: "It may be that this girl is a little weaker, and it is okay to make up for it with these nourishing medicines." ”
Chu Ye took the prescription and glanced at it, and saw that it was indeed some nourishing medicine, so he nodded with satisfaction.
Here, Situ Li pretended to wake up, and Chu Ye immediately asked the people in her palace to send her back to Situ Mansion. After Situ Lan recognized that the little guy was from Chu Ye's palace, his face was a little wrong.
