Patience year after year.

Bai Ling was about to speak, but Qu Shi behind the veil ended the conversation in an extremely resolute tone.

"I'm tired of this palace, let's step down!"

This time, Zheng Shu didn't listen to Bao Yuan anymore, and no longer gave Bai Ling any chance to answer, and directly started to chase customers.

Bao Yuan helped Bai Ling to get up. Before leaving the door, Bai Ling still stopped, turned around and whispered, "It's too late today, and it's really bothering to talk about it." I don't know what you've seen from my experience, but when you have the strength to come back and talk to me, I'll wait for you. ”

With that, Bai Ling himself lifted the curtain and walked out.

Qu Shi looked at the falling curtain, and suddenly felt as if his heart had been pricked by something, and there was a burst of sourness.

Bao Yuan took Bai Ling to the side hall on the right side of the Chengqian Palace-there was a residence for the palace people to rest at night, and everyone's things were placed in the cabinets against the wall, some locked, some not.

The palace maids slept on a large bunk by the window, about half a meter high, and it was a stone kang built against the wall.

Each person is about a meter wide and has their own pillows and bedding. At this time, most of the people who are still in the side hall are on duty outside during the day. Everyone had fallen asleep at the moment, but listening to the sounds, some people still cautiously got up.

As soon as I saw that it was Bao Yuan leading people to come, a few people who moved quickly had already come out of the quilt to salute.

"That's it! Don't move. Bao Yuan had a cold face, didn't look at them, and directly led Bai Ling inside.

She took out a new bed from the large cabinet against the wall, and quickly helped Bai Ling clean it up.

"It is said that the girl is the medicine, and she should have specially packed a compartment to give you a single room, but there is an emergency, and many things are too late to be added...... You will be here for a few nights, and I will go to supervise the Internal Affairs Office tomorrow and hurry up to prepare the girl's things. ”

In order to highlight the difference in identity, Bao Yuan's bed for Bai Ling is obviously wider than that of others, one person occupies two people's beds, and there is a gap at least one person wide on the side.

"Thank you." Bai Ling said.

"The girl has worked hard today." Bao Yuan took Bai Ling's hand and said in a low voice, "Don't be frightened by Niangniang's appearance today, our Niangniang is a good person on weekdays, she is really a Bodhisattva-like person." Maybe I'm too tired today, wait until you stay by your mother's side for a long time, and you'll know......"

"Hmm."

Bao Yuan remembered something again, his eyes swept to the palace maids who were all curled up in the quilt on the side, and said coldly, "From now on, Miss Bai Ling will live in our Chengqian Palace." If I know anyone who doesn't have long eyes, seeing that the girl is young, I will come to her unhappy, be careful of my temper! ”

This beating, not to mention the palace maids lying on the bed, even Bai Ling was a little surprised. Not long after Bao Yuan left, Bai Ling stood in place for a while, but still chased him out.

"Wait!"

Bai Ling rushed to the courtyard, and in the rain, Bao Yuan had just set up her oil-paper umbrella, and when she heard Bai Ling's voice, she couldn't help but turn around, "What's wrong?" What's missing? ”

"Nope." Bai Ling shook her head, there was some confusion between her eyebrows, and she whispered, "I just wanted to ask, we shouldn't have seen it a few times, why-"

Bao Yuan smiled, took two steps back with an umbrella, half-squatted down in front of Bai Ling, and whispered in Bai Ling's ear in a very soft voice, "A few years ago, I was transferred to Cining Palace for half a year. “

Bai Ling couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

"I don't care what others say or think, I just believe what I've seen with my own eyes." Bao Yuan looked at Bai Ling's eyes seriously, and as if encouraging his juniors, he patted Bai Ling's arm gently, "Niang Niang is still waiting for me, I'll go back." ”

Seeing Bao Yuan leave, Bai Ling turned around and went back to the house, and only then pushed the door in, he heard the room that was still buzzing for a moment, and everyone in the room withdrew their eyes in a little panic, turned the quilt and pretended to sleep.

She walked silently to the end of the bunk alone, took off her coat and lay down under the covers.

The quilt and the quilt on the body are a little hard, and the pillows are also loose, so there seems to be no difference between having and not having them. Bai Ling clumped up his clothes, placed them under the pillow, and reluctantly padded them.

The wind and rain outside the window were still violent, and she faintly felt that she was a little unaccustomed to it, and after tossing and turning for a long time, she suddenly realized that the roof of Chengqian Palace was different from home, and it would not leak rain here.

Bai Ling changed directions and lay on her side, holding herself up with both hands, and it was only then that she really felt an indescribable feeling of tiredness, and she was swept over the sky.

Closing his eyes, Bai Ling thought of Bai Yi and his father, and wondered how they were doing today...... Be safe.

This is the first day of entering the palace.

……

The next day, the eighth day of the third month.

In the morning, it was still dawn, and Bai Ling had already gotten up to freshen up—even she was the first person in the room to get out of bed.

But after freshening up, she didn't go anywhere, just sat quietly at the table in front of the window and waited.

Because the eighth day of every month is the day to enter the palace to meet the queen mother. At this time, Fourteen would rarely take the initiative to show up and lead Bai Ling into the palace together.

Now that she is in the palace, she shouldn't have to get up so early, but the habit is still there.

Most of the maidservants actually woke up at this time, but there were still two quarters of time before the hour, and everyone was going to lie down for a while, but after all, the new medicine in the house had already risen, and everyone didn't dare to be lazy, so they simply got up and dressed.

Only the two people on the far west side didn't get up from the bed with black faces until almost everyone was out of the door.

The two of them look quite young, one is tall and thin, the other is short and fat, they seem to be more than ten years older than Bao Yuan, and their clothes are not the pink and white of the coarse palace maid, but the color is darker.

In front of them, they deliberately hung the royal blue sachet given by the old lady on the front of their clothes.

"We all made it so late last night, and today we got up early, heh, some people are really good at please."

"That's it," continued the other, "and I don't know who I'm pretending to be of a soft and weak fox." ”

"As soon as she came, she contradicted the old lady, and led the dirty water to the second master," the tall one glanced at Bai Ling, "It's no wonder, after all, the mother died when he was born, and there is a thing that the father gave birth to and did not have a mother!" ”

Their faces were cold, and they half-folded and half-folded the quilt was cleaned up, and the room suddenly rose with ashes.

"Auntie's words are quite strange." Bai Ling suddenly spoke.

The two mothers-in-law glanced at each other and burst into a low laugh.

The short one pretended to look at Bai Ling in surprise, "Yo, the girl is still in the house, look at the two of us dazzled, we didn't pay attention." ”

Bai Ling was still silent, but just threw out a sentence, "I didn't pay attention to small things, if I lost my life for one or two nonsense words, it would not be worth it." ”
