Jiao Niang returned to Guan Ju Pavilion, and Shui Xiang was busy a few times, fetching water and taking ice, and laying quilts and making tea.

Wu Dan wrapped a few pieces of ice in a towel to reduce the swelling of Jiao Niang's knees, but was suddenly held by Jiao Niang's wrists.

"Master, although the ice is a little cold, it doesn't hurt so much when you apply it to your knees. Ottan said.

Jiao Niang smiled coldly and said, "If the swelling is gone, won't someone not see my sin?"

He asked again: "When the prince left, who did he send to Liyuan Courtyard to spread the word?" ”

Wu Dan and Qiu Shuang looked at each other and recalled: "It seems to be Xiao Zhongzi, the apprentice of the prince." ”

"Pass him. ”

Soon Xiao Zhongzi ran over, yawned and greeted him, respectful and respectful.

"I don't know what happened to the side concubine Niangniang looking for a slave?"

Jiao Niang faced the sky, lying on the bed, through a layer of light purple gauze curtains, smiling and talking to him, "It's not a big deal, just ask you, did you go to pass the word to the princess this morning?"

Xiao Zhongzi didn't know what happened today, Mrs. Jane's sister was going to get married, and the palace always had to prepare a gift, and the princess handed over this matter to the master, but the master followed the prince and couldn't get out, so he handed it over to him. He had been out all morning, and had just come back before the chair was hot.

Xiao Zhongzi muttered in his heart, this is not a big deal, why did Concubine Xiaohua specially call him for questioning, it can't be that something happened, right?

He told the truth, "The prince did ask the slave to pass the word, but halfway through, he was intercepted by the maid in the concubine's house. It was said that the prince went out to the court, and he hadn't prepared the carriage yet, and the slave's master asked the slave to do it first. She also said that she would pass the word for the slave, and the slave saw that she was the concubine's person, so she responded. ”

His head was buried lower, "It's said that the slave is lazy, and I ask the mother to punish him." ”

After hearing this, Jiao Niang leaned back on the soft pillow, glanced at Shui Xiang, and Shui Xiang asked, "Which maid is it?"

Xiao Zhongzi thought for a while, "I don't remember what it was called, but I remember that she used to follow Concubine Dahua." ”

Keyi——

Let's just say, the prince has already passed the word, no matter how much Yu Chizhen hates her, he doesn't dare to be so blatant, it turns out that no one has to pass on the word at all, so Yu Chizhen will take advantage of the topic to retaliate against her.

Jiao Niang snorted and let out a chuckle, didn't ask again, gave the reward and let Xiao Zhongzi go back.

"Master, do you want to call Keyi? Qiushuang rolled up her arms and had a bit of a fighting stance.

Jiao Niang took a candied fruit and put it in her mouth, "No." ”

Qiu Shuang was angry, "She caused her master to be punished by the princess for kneeling." ”

Jiao Niang spit out the nucleus at the spittoon and said coldly: "She's just a little shrimp, if you want to cure her, I have the law." ”

As she was talking, the little girl who was guarding the door came in to spread the word that the prince and the big flower concubine came.

It's not surprising that Ying Che came to Jiao Niang, and it's almost the same time every day, but Hua Meiniang's sudden visit was something that Jiao Niang didn't expect, and she had never set foot in Guan Ju Pavilion.

Jiao Niang pinched her knee hard, and tears welled up in her eyes. When Ying Che and Hua Meiniang entered the house, Jiao Niang pretended to get up to greet her, and Ying Che walked in front of her in three steps and two steps, and held her down, "Don't get up." He lifted the cuff of the girl's trousers, "How's the injury?"

Jiao Niang was embarrassed and pressed his hand, "Your Highness, where is my sister still here." ”

Ying Che doesn't care so much, "She's your sister, what's there to be shy about." As he spoke, he pushed his culottes up to his knees.

Jiao Niang's knees were red and swollen, and she was bruised, and her whole body was snow-white, and it looked even more terrifying, like a grimace.

Ying Che was distressed when he saw it, and lowered his head and blew, "Does it hurt?"

His breath was very light, with a cool breeze, which seemed to really relieve the pain. Jiao Niang's tears fell, she shook her head, tears splashed on the back of Yingche's hand, and her voice was soft and glutinous, "Your Highness blows, it won't hurt." ”

Hua Meiniang watched Ying Che hold Jiao Niang's knees in her hands, and she didn't know whether to be envious or jealous for a while, she had followed Ying Che for six years, and she had never been so favored.

She swallowed the sourness in her heart, and pretended to pity Jiao Niang, "The fifth sister has been pampered since she was a child, and even her mother has never punished her." Kneeling in Liyuan Courtyard for more than an hour today, how can I stand it. ”

She walked over and picked up Jiao Niang's little face to look at, "The sun is also poisonous today, I look at this face, Your Highness, you see, isn't it?"

That Yingche is an evil person again, and he looked at Jiao Niang and nodded vigorously.

Hua Meiniang sighed and said: "The princess looks at the usually kind person, why is she so ruthless today, I came in and glanced at Qing Huan, tsk, that face is simply unseeable." Said with Yingche's face.

Seeing that Yingche's face darkened, a barely noticeable smile crossed the corner of her mouth.

But this smile still didn't escape Jiao Niang's eyes, in the past two days, she jumped up and down, adjusting three and four, didn't she just want to provoke her and Yu Chizhen, so that they would both lose, and she would sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman?

Jiao Niang pulled down Yingche's hand and intersected her fingers, "How does Your Highness know?" I rushed over before I changed my court clothes, which little hoof in my house went to complain? ”

On the side, Hua Meiniang's face was changeable, and Yingche said: "Who is going to sue, it is this king who is returning to the house and meeting your sister, she said that you are injured, and this king knows that you have been punished by Yu Chizhen." Why, I was wronged, and I wanted to hold back my voice?" he bent his fingers and flicked on Jiao Niang's head, "Breath!"

Jiao Niang's aggrieved mouth was deflated, and after a few sobs, she cried in Yingche's arms. doesn't say how wronged he is, as if he can only blindly forbear.

She cried so much that she was heart-stirring, which was tantamount to adding fuel to the fire of her original anger towards Yu Chizhen, and roared outward, "Wang Zhan, go and invite the princess over." ”

Jiao Niang choked and cried, raised her face and cried to Ying Che: "Your Highness, don't blame the princess, it's Jiao Niang who is not good, Jiao Niang is rude, and the princess will punish me." Don't make His Royal Highness and the princess unhappy because of Jiao Niang, isn't it Jiao Niang's sin. She let out a thick nasal voice, "Forget it, don't do it again, Your Highness, even if it's a beautiful girl, please beg you." ”

Ying Che sighed, I didn't know what to say, but I felt more pity for Jiao Niang in my heart, hugged her shoulder, and said distressedly: "You always wronged yourself like this." ”

He coaxed Jiao Niang a few more words, wiped her tears away, and completely regarded Hua Meiniang as a transparent person.

The jealousy in Hua Meiniang's heart was surging, and she was so sour that she almost lost her teeth.

After slowing down, Fang Qiang suppressed it, and then said: "It is also an excuse for the princess to punish her sister today, not because the prince rewarded her sister with the red satin yesterday, which made her unhappy." ”

Ying Che Deng was angry, "The satin is the king's reward, if she is not satisfied, just come to the king." ”

His whole chest trembled when he was angry, and Jiao Niang lay on his chest, feeling dizzy.
