Chapter 127: Coming from afar
When the words fell, he turned to instruct Shi Chun, who was inseparable from her: "You go to greet Miss Zhao, settle her well, don't neglect others." ”
The spring is full of blessings, and the cheeks are shallow pear nests: "The slave receives the order." ”
After hearing this beautiful and pleasant voice, Qian Xiusheng unconsciously looked towards the source of the sound.
After seeing Shi Chun's appearance clearly, even if he had read all kinds of beauties, he had to sigh that the East Palace was not shallow.
The attendant next to him saw that his master was smiling meaningfully, and secretly asked, "What is the third master laughing at?" ”
Qian Xiusheng smiled unabated, and sighed in a low voice: "I'm laughing, Miss Zhao is full of joy, I'm afraid I'm going to be poured a basin of cold water on my head." ”
The attendant wondered, "Why is that?" Who has the courage to pour cold water on Miss Zhao? ”
What else?
Qian Xiusheng smiled silently, maybe others didn't dare, but the concubine of the East Palace might not be able to say.
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if this concubine doesn't do anything, Miss Zhao will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
……
Under the pergola in the northeast corner of the city, an inconspicuous and modest carriage is parked inside.
Shi Chunlian walked to the carriage and said in a crisp voice: "The slave is ordered by His Highness to come to greet Miss Zhao." ”
A hand reached out of the carriage, its fingertips as white as jade.
A maid dressed as a man lifted the curtain, revealing Zhao Yueqiu's clean and comfortable face.
There is a trace of tiredness between her eyebrows, even if she is wearing a man's robe, her gentle and graceful temperament still makes people feel like a spring breeze.
Raising her eyes, Zhao Yueqiu's eyebrows twisted slightly, and her eyes were glued to Shi Chun's body.
"You are?"
"His Royal Highness Zhao Xun is called Shi Chun."
Qi Changrong's concubine? The rumored most favored one?
Zhao Yueqiu pursed her lips, slightly stunned, and in her frustration, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of her lips.
The maid beside her secretly touched Zhao Yueqiu with her arm, she immediately came back to her senses, smiled lightly at Shi Chun, her voice was slightly low, and she paused: "Trouble...... Little lady too. ”
Her voice was very small, and if it weren't for Shi Chun listening intently, she might not have heard the last three words.
Shi Chun 'giggled', and his eyes were charming: "Miss Zhao is polite, and the slave is also acting on orders." ”
While laughing, Shi Chun looked at Zhao Yueqiu quietly and secretly, and when he saw this, he only sighed in his heart.
No matter how good she is, His Highness will not be allowed to marry her.
Her status is too noble.
Shi Chun arranged Zhao Yueqiu in the West Garden, which spanned most of the house from the East Garden.
Her arrangement naturally made Qingmiao extremely dissatisfied, and when she was waiting for Zhao Yueqiu to clean, she complained with her mouth: "What a foxy little hoof, the slave is uneasy and kind when she looks at her!" ”
The whole body sank into the warm water sprinkled with roses, and under the mist, the nerves that had been tense for many days were finally relaxed.
"Don't talk nonsense, I think this person has a good mind, and he should be a concubine who keeps to himself." Zhao Yueqiu's voice was soft, and the loss in her demeanor had already been completely dispersed.
"Bah, girl, don't let her face fool you." Qing Miao snorted, and argued with reason: "If she keeps to herself, will she dare to rely on His Highness shamelessly?" ”
Listening to Qing Miao's indignant tone, Zhao Yueqiu naturally guessed what she was thinking, and after a moment of silence, she said, "Your Highness naturally can't be short of people to serve you. ”
There are only two Zhao Xun in the East Palace, and it is not surprising that they will take them with them.
Qingmiao naturally understood this truth, and could think of her own girl's infatuation, and she was always uncomfortable in her heart, so she muttered unconvincedly: "When the girl marries into the East Palace in the future, where will they still have their share of swagger!" ”
Hearing this, the loose meaning between Zhao Yueqiu's eyebrows immediately dissipated, she deliberately lowered her voice, and her words were sharp: "When you go out, be cautious in your words and deeds, don't let me hear such words again, and I must not discuss the rights and wrongs of the East Palace in the future." ”
Talking about the royal family, if it spreads, nine heads are not enough.
Moreover, she never takes the initiative to let outsiders notice her thoughts.
Even if people from the outside world have guessed her intentions, don't want to get any verification from her before the prince makes a statement.
She can't, and the slaves around her can't.
Qingmiao was shocked, and then realized that she had trespassed, and hurriedly bowed down to admit her mistake: "The slave knows it, and I don't dare to commit it again." ”
Zhao Yueqiu hummed lightly, without the intention of continuing to investigate.
When dressing up, thinking of Shi Chun's beautiful face, Qingmiao was ruthless and took out a light-colored gauze skirt from her bag.
"Girl, wear this."
The girl has a beautiful face, and she can overwhelm the crowd with a little dress, and if she wears this, she will definitely be able to suppress the little concubine and not be able to raise her head.
Zhao Yueqiu paused, and then decisively refused, showing that it was not her style to be flamboyant when she first came.
Under Qingmiao's rather injured eyes, Zhao Yueqiu said: "It's just a newcomer, why bother annoying people in vain, just look for a plain and elegant one, besides, we don't have to ......dress up too much when we travel a long way."
Hearing her say this, Qingmiao pursed her lips, and suddenly became excited again: "That's right, the girl has suffered so much and suffered so much, so naturally she wants Her Highness to see it with her own eyes, and it is best to feel distressed." ”
“……”
Zhao Yueqiu opened her mouth and was speechless.
No matter what she said, it could be misinterpreted by Qingmiao into another meaning, and she simply shut up and said no more.
……
In Dongyuan, Shi Chun waited for Qi Changrong to change her clothes, put on a robe for her, and tied her belt: "Your Highness, Miss Zhao may not be a good person, you have to be prepared." ”
Qi Changrong straightened his arms, his eyebrows and eyes indifferent: "She is just a girl's family raised in a deep boudoir, so she doesn't need to be too vigilant." ”
"You're mistaken." Shi Chun pursed her lips and smiled, and tied the bag containing the herbs around her waist: "What the slave said is not good, it doesn't mean that Miss Zhao has bad intentions towards you, but ...... She may want something you can't afford. ”
Qi Changrong's mind is so thorough, after being tactfully reminded by Shi Chun, she can't pretend to be stupid anymore.
I don't know where to think of it, her eyes deepened, and she sighed regretfully: "I don't know, but she really can't." ”
If she were a real man. The crown princess of Dongfeng is naturally none other than Zhao Yueqiu, and no one is more suitable than her.
However, the world makes people, and her identity is different, which dooms Zhao Yueqiu to not be able to enter the East Palace.
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if she has to get married in the end, she will only marry an ordinary deep lady with a weak family background who can be manipulated by others, and when the time comes, she just puts people aside to dry.
Zhao Yueqiu is already smart, and behind her is Zhao Li, a first-class minister, if she marries her back as a decoration, it will inevitably be too tyrannical.
The most important thing is that with Zhao Yueqiu's ability, it is very likely that she will discover her secret.
Keeping such a person by your side is tantamount to putting a time bomb that could blow her to pieces at any time.
"You need to make it clear to Miss Zhao as soon as possible." Shi Chun said with some trepidation: "Miss Zhao is not afraid of thousands of gossips, and she left everything to find you, I am afraid that she has already identified you." ”
Presumably, the reason why the Qian family helped the southeast this time was because of Zhao Yueqiu's maneuvering.
A woman can do her best to do this, whether it is ability or mentality, it is rare in the world.
If the crown prince is really the crown prince, Zhao Yueqiu will be the only person who has the qualifications and ability to stand side by side with His Royal Highness.
The fact that Shi Chun could guess, Qi Changrong didn't know, as early as when she learned that Zhao Yueqiu and the Qian family's team had arrived together, she figured out the joints.
She said: "This matter is indeed a bit troublesome, wait for the lonely life to plan it." ”
If it were to be replaced by her who had just been reborn, she would naturally not give up such a character that could be used when she was sent to the door.
However, at this time, thinking of Junchen, she was a little hesitant.
once promised Junchen not to fight Zhao Yueqiu's idea, and since he made a promise, he should seriously abide by it.
A gentleman promises, more than ten thousand gold.
……
Pei Ji did not dare to slack off, and after knocking on the side of the East Palace, he arranged a banquet in the mansion to thank the Qian family for sending life-saving food.
If it weren't for the barren city in the city and the poor conditions, he even wanted to make an exception and invite a few Qingqi to sing a small song.
Regardless of his identity, Qi Changrong put down his figure, and no one took into account the rules of different seats for men and women, and put together left and right, and even made a table of people.
Qi Changrong sat on the main seat, Jun Chen on the left, then Zhao Yueqiu, Pei Ji on the right, and then Qian Xiusheng.
Several positions are clearly distinguished, and no one interferes with anyone.
Qi Changrong held the cup, his tone was leisurely, and he solemnly toasted Qian Xiusheng: "The Qian family's good deeds are unforgettable." ”
The dignified East Palace showed goodwill, Qian Xiusheng was inevitably nervous, he quickly got up, bowed down and said: "The Qian family is just doing what is within its reach, how can it be worth keeping in your heart." ”
"Wise people don't speak secret words." Qi Changrong waved his hand and said bluntly: "After drinking this glass of wine, you should be alone in the Qian family." ”
Qian Xiusheng is really the same as his name, not only does he look like a showman, but he also drinks very delicately.
After listening to Qi Changrong's words, he had nothing else to say, he couldn't really give a favor and violate the family rules of the supremacy of the interests of his ancestors.
Junchen also wanted to taste the wine, so he ordered someone to pour a full glass, and as soon as he raised his hand, he was stopped before he could reach his mouth.
"This is Pei Qing's self-brewed sake, and it has a lot of stamina, so it's better for the general to drink less."
After being looked at for a moment by Qi Changrong's eyes that were as indifferent as water but with a faint smile, Jun Chen suddenly came to his senses, remembering the ridiculous things he would do when he was drunk, and the hairs on his body stood up.
His gaze turned around on the faces of Zhao Yueqiu and Qian Xiusheng, these people were all people who didn't know how unreasonable he would be after drinking.
Inevitably made a joke, and after thinking about it, he coughed, put down the wine glass as good, and picked up a chopstick dish to eat.
A hint of surprise appeared in Zhao Yueqiu's beautiful eyes, and she looked at Junchen who looked as usual.
In her eyes, her cousin is the most stubborn little old man, and when someone interferes with him the most, once he wants to do something, he can't pull back ten cows.
