"Qinglian." Bai Ling thought for a while, and seemed to think that he had heard this name somewhere, "New palace maid?" ”

The man's eyes lit up slightly, and he quickly replied, "Well, I'm—"

"Don't mention the whereabouts of the concubine to others in the future, and don't take the initiative to tell you if no one asks." Bai Ling glanced at her and smiled, "Forget it this time." ”

The palace maid named Qinglian's expression froze there, and she suddenly became a little flustered, "Ah, slave maid, slave maid is just ......"

"If nothing else, you can step back first."

Bai Ling didn't say anything more to her, and closed the door.

The curtains in the room were drawn, and the door was darkened as soon as it was closed. She opened all the windows in the room, and thought for a moment the name of the maid.

Maybe it's not unusual, it's normal for me to feel familiar with this name. After all, on weekdays, when Mother-in-law Shu and Bao Yuan send people in the courtyard, they often call the names of the palace maids directly, maybe they have heard it at any moment.

Bai Ling lit the lamp in the room, picked up the notebook sent by the previous fourteen and flipped through it, and after reading a few pages, he remembered that he seemed to have not eaten water and rice since he woke up today, but he had never felt hungry, which was really strange.

She leaned back in her chair with some sighs.

It seems that the pressure in the past few days is really too much, and if it continues like this, even if you eat three meals on time, your stomach will definitely have something wrong first.

Bai Ling stood up again and walked out of the east side hall, and the door was pushed open, and the palace people in the courtyard all looked over.

After looking around, Bai Ling realized that he seemed to only remember Qinglian's name, so he smiled, and waved his hand to the young palace maid, signaling her to approach.

This time, her head was lowered, and her expression was much more restrained.

"Cypress medicine...... Any commands? ”

"I'm hungry." Bai Ling said softly, "If you have any snacks in the palace, bring some to me." ”

"Ah, the slave maid went to the imperial dining room and asked them to prepare a good one for the medicine."

"No, you don't." Bai Ling waved his hand, "Just bring me some ready-made snacks, it's almost evening, I'll still have dinner with everyone." ”

“…… Ah, good. Qinglian nodded again and again, she leaned her broom against the corner of the wall, wiped her hand on her clothes a few times, and then went to ask the other people about the snacks.

It seems that she has been doing rough work in the yard, and does not know much about these things about serving her master.

But she quickly brought the snack, and five peach blossom cakes the size of shell rouge were stacked together and placed in a blue-blue transparent glass flat bowl.

Each piece of peach blossom cake is lit with a petal-like red mark, which is not only beautiful, but also looks like it has a little chill - it seems that the ice has deliberately cooled down.

"It's hot today, and Bai Siyao has been running outside for another day, eating some cold snacks, just to cool off."

Qinglian smiled flatteringly, and looked at Bai Ling's face, but seeing that Bai Ling was just staring at the glass green plate she put on the table, neither smiling nor touching the snack, she only felt that her heart sank again.

"Slave maid...... Did the slave do something wrong again......"

Bai Ling glanced at her and asked softly, "Where did you hear that, I've been out running for a day." ”

Qinglian was stunned, thought about it for a long time, and really didn't understand what she said wrong, "...... Bai Siyao is indeed not in the palace all day today. ”

"Then I might have gone to the Imperial Garden to pray for incense?"

Qinglian had a blank look on her face, and she didn't know how to answer, and even the hand that was stretched out to protect the plate before forgot to retract it.

After a long time, her throat finally moved, "...... Slaves and slaves didn't think so much. ”

The smile on Bai Ling's face faded, and her expression at the moment actually made people feel a little frightened.

"If you don't think about it so much, don't talk so much." Bai Ling retracted his gaze, "You go out." ”

Qinglian shuddered at this time, and hugged the wooden tray in her arms tightly, "...... Be. ”

The door was soon brought up from the outside, and the room was quiet again, and Bai Ling took a bite of the peach blossom crisp—indeed, as the palace maid said, this dim sum had a special taste. The light white puff pastry on the outside tastes slightly sweet, and the filling in it seems to be a flower mud kneaded with glutinous rice, which is fragrant and soft but not sticky to the teeth.

Was it a little too unkind to her just now...... This thought suddenly rose in Bai Ling's mind, but remembering that she had just taken the initiative to stop herself and inform the concubine of her whereabouts, Bai Ling narrowed her eyes again.

This Qinglian ...... Are you slapping me?

……

"Just to use that glass flat lamp, Lin Po will ask me for forty dollars! Oh my boy, I'm just borrowing it for a little bit of snack! ”

In the west side hall after nightfall, only two palace maids were tidying up everyone's bedding, and the two were chatting while working.

Today is a sunny day, and Granny Shu ordered them to take out the whole life they have slept in and dry in the morning. At night, everyone has their own duty, and the work of collecting quilts falls on the two people who have just changed their guards and are about to rest.

One of them is Qinglian.

"You are content, you have spent a penny of silver before and after, and Bai Siyao already remembers your name." The palace maid on the side smiled, "When did you see her call someone other than Granny Shu and Bao Yuan?" ”

Qinglian was stunned, "Really? ”

"What do I have to lie to you." The man sat down beside Qinglian, "Although this Bai Siyao is young, she is a hot figure now, do you know where she went today?" ”

"Don't you dare ask!" Qinglian said in a low voice, "You didn't see it, I said one more thing in the afternoon, and Bai Siyao's face suddenly pulled down......"

"You just say you want to know if you want to." The palace people laughed harder and harder.

Qinglian's throat moved, and she couldn't help but glance outside, Qu still hadn't come back, and the palace people didn't dare to be lazy at this time, so they were all yawning and on duty outside.

She leaned down and asked softly, "Sister Rouge knows?" ”

"Of course I know," the man said with a smile, "but something big happened outside today, otherwise how could the mother faint, and why would she have to go to Xianfu Palace to see the child as soon as she wakes up." ”

Qinglian's eyes widened, "...... Is this also related to the cypress? ”

The man hooked his fingers, motioned for Qinglian to come close and listen, and then picked up the important things about today's Bai family's father and son's medicine test and the concubine's fainting in court, and then said, "I didn't lie to you, let's not go to please that Zheng Shu and Bao Yuan, it is better to spend more time on this Bai Ling." She's just as new as us, and she's shallow, so she's definitely in need of help at this point. ”

"Really?" Qinglian scratched her head a little confused, "What do I think...... She doesn't seem to like people near her at all, does she? ”
