Chapter 215: Ziqing's mentality
Hearing the concubine Niangniang say this, Yun Ziqing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and smiled: "Thank you Niangniang for thinking about Ziqing, Ziqing just wants to live in peace, or find an opportunity to sneak out of the palace." When he said the last sentence, he stuck out his tongue mischievously.
Nalan Lan'er shook her head and smiled, and then asked, "Ziqing doesn't want to compete for favor?" Look at my Huayan Palace, you are so young, maybe you can really climb to the ninth concubine if you work hard? ”
She didn't care about what she said, in fact, her eyes kept looking at Yun Ziqing, and she didn't want to let go of any detail. She wanted to know what Yun Ziqing thought.
And Yun Ziqing listened to Nalan Lan'er's words and thought for a while before saying: "Back to Niangniang, Huayan Palace is indeed very good, but Ziqing feels that the higher the status, the more things she can bear, Niangniang knows Ziqing's character, it's okay if the time is short, and if you show your feet for a long time, I'm afraid you won't be able to live to be fifteen years old." ”
And she has a secret in her heart, and she is reluctant to tell others about it for the time being.
Nalan Lan'er looked at her face imprinted in Yun Ziqing's clear pupils, understood a little, looked at her and said, "Then the palace has to let you stay in the palace, and your other show girls in the same period will be married to other princes." ”
"After they are married, there will be a large number of show girls, right?" Yun Ziqing smoothly answered.
Nalan Lan'er nodded: "This time, a large number of draft girls will come to fill the harem, so there must be a lot of people in the harem by then, you should be careful of your temperament, so as not to be seen by others, then it will be suspended." ”
Yun Ziqing really regarded Nalan Lan'er as her sister, and responded with a smile. After a short conversation, it was time for lunch, and according to the emperor's busyness, he would not come to eat together at noon this day.
"Hungry? Bengong ordered the kitchen to make a few more dishes, Ziqing came to eat together. Nalan Lan'er said that she stood up, because there was no palace maid by her side, so Yun Ziqing lifted her skirt and ran up, letting Nalan Lan'er hold her hand, looking like a palace maid.
The speed of this rush made Nalan Lan'er scared for a while, she thought that Yun Ziqing wanted to hit her, and she rushed so fast that she almost arrived in front of her in the blink of an eye.
Yun Ziqing was about to help the concubine Niangniang to leave, but Nalan Lan'er stopped, couldn't help but look up, and found that her other hand was covering her chest, as if she was frightened.
"Mother, what's wrong with you?"
The voice full of concern made Nalan Lan'er unable to think of anything to say about her, and finally chose to give up, and the two walked out of the main hall together, and as soon as they arrived at the door, Cailian came up to replace Yun Ziqing. In addition, the big and small palace maids around Yun Ziqing also hurriedly saluted Nalan Lan'er. They were dismissed one by one.
Yun Ziqing followed Nalan Lan'er to the side hall where the meal was served, and the table was already full of many dishes, and as soon as they sat down and waited on the side, the palace people stepped forward to serve soup for them.
The strong bone fragrance, just smelling Yun Ziqing felt happy, she ate very ladylike this time, took small sips of soup with a spoon, and after drinking, under the signal of Nalan Lan'er, she ate the vegetables.
The palace maid next to her stepped forward with a bowl of rice to Yun Ziqing, she chewed slowly, and was quiet without even the sound of chopsticks hitting the bowl.
Originally, they didn't talk about food, but they still like to talk about things at the dinner table when they are not inhibited. After Yun Ziqing finished eating a bowl of rice, Nalan Lan'er was still drinking soup.
When she was full of breath, Yun Ziqing remembered what happened some time ago, looked at the two palace maids waiting in the room, she looked at Nalan Lan'er and said, "Niangniang, Ziqing has something to tell you." ”
Nalan Lan'er looked at the two palace maids guarding the side lightly and said, "Go out, the palace will call you after you eat well." ”
The two palace maids bowed their heads and responded, "Yes." ”
After they went out, Yun Ziqing supported her chin with her hand very indecently, and thought for a while before saying, "Niangniang, you remember that the last time I ate here, you went out because of something." ”
At that time, Xia He said that the first imperial concubine had something to do with her, and she did leave halfway. He nodded his head to indicate that he remembered.
"Actually, Niangniang left Ziqing not long after you left, because there were too many things that happened that day, because Ziqing usually wanders around outside, and Ziqing also remembers the cold palace you went to."
At this time, Nalan Lan'er did not listen casually, but focused on Yun Ziqing's body, and intuitively felt that Yun Ziqing must have done something terrible.
And Yun Ziqing looked at Nalan Lan'er at her, a little embarrassed and a little proud, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, that day Ziqing took a shortcut to the cold palace earlier than you, so she hid in the grass." ”
Really! Nalan Lan'er had a headache: "Are you disgusted with life or have an itchy neck?" Once discovered, you will surely be guilty of death and will not escape from the sins of life."
After speaking, he picked up the handkerchief in his hand and wiped the corners of his mouth, looking a little angry. This Yun Ziqing is too out-of-the-box, not to mention what will happen and what the consequences will be, she will not be able to escape responsibility at that time.
Yun Ziqing was also a little embarrassed to see Nalan Lan'er so angry, and then said proudly: "Don't be angry, when the emperor asked you to pull you down, Ziqing wanted to rush out, but fortunately, when the guards were about to come to you, the emperor repulsed them again." ”
"If the emperor really doesn't believe Niangniang, then Ziqing will definitely be able to testify that Niangniang didn't kill that person." Yun Ziqing said and picked up another piece of meat and ate it in her mouth.
Nalan Lan'er lowered her head and scooped the soup with a spoon, and asked indifferently, "Surely?" If at that time, the emperor blindly believed that the palace had killed the former emperor and concubine, then how could you testify? ”
Yun Ziqing immediately patted her chest and said: "Ziqing can testify, that day Ziqing just hid and saw a father-in-law coming out of the cold palace, walking and watching left and right, Ziqing believes that that is the murderer!" ”
Father-in-law? Nalan Lan'er looked at her again, seeing that her little face was full of seriousness, it really didn't look like a lie. "Remember what color of palace dress that father-in-law was wearing?"
Yun Ziqing thought for a while: "The clothes at your feet are dark red, and you can't see your face if you don't see anything else." ”
Nalan Lan'er looked at the soup in the bowl, it was very thick and not oily, and it reflected her own face vaguely, and it was swung away with a spoon.
After that, she looked up at Yun Ziqing and said with a smile: "You haven't even seen the figure clearly, how can you help this palace testify?" Don't get involved in these things in the future, understand? It's dangerous, and you're in the palace. ”
Yun Ziqing doesn't understand this. "Niangniang, Ziqing can be a witness, that father-in-law got up from the corpse in person, and the murderer must be him. Why can't you testify? ”
Nalan Lan'er looked at Yun Ziqing, who still didn't understand, put down the spoon and said seriously: "Then can you explain why you appeared in the cold palace?" Can you find the murderer? If you can't, you are the biggest suspect in killing the former emperor and concubine. ”
"I ......" Yun Ziqing suddenly couldn't answer, so she could only look at Nalan Lan'er, who was suddenly a little serious, with a frown.
Nalan Lan'er saw that she couldn't come up with a reason, so she calmed her face and said, "This palace won't blame you this time, don't have a next time." ”
Yun Ziqing frowned and bit her lower lip, and nodded sullenly. "Ziqing was too reckless, but at that time, after the emperor left, Ziqing climbed out, and no one saw it, so don't worry."
Nalan Lan'er's face was relieved for a moment, looking at the dishes and dishes that were left, looking at Yun Ziqing and said, "Are you full?" If you can continue to eat, you can also ask the kitchen to sit a few side dishes for you to take home. ”
Yun Ziqing brushed a few hairs from her mouth, picked up chopsticks and continued to fight. "Don't be surprised, Ziqing has always eaten better, hehe."
"It's always good to eat, you look too thin, eat slowly and eat more." Nalan Lan'er herself picked up chopsticks, picked up a green vegetable, and ate it elegantly.
Someone accompanied, and Yun Ziqing boldly continued to eat.
In fact, Nalan Lan'er just enjoys this kind of meal without too many rules, and when the emperor comes, she has to wait for the emperor to eat, and most of the time she is alone, and if she wants to attend the palace etiquette, she can't eat well. It's only once or twice when it's so relaxed, and occasionally relax when it's tense, and everything will be clearer when you're relaxed.
In other words, she was confused all the time now. The emperor and the queen mother and the draft three days later.
Yun Ziqing ate almost completely, put down her chopsticks and looked at Nalan Lan'er and said, "Niangniang, you specially called Ziqing over just to have a draft in the harem in a few days?" ”
Nalan Lan'er bowed his head: "Let me tell you, if you insist on marrying the prince, this palace can also help you." ”
Since entering the palace, except for the warmth of Nalan Lan'er, what she has seen is intrigue, even if she is not competing for favor, she is also comparing their clothes and family backgrounds, she disdains and has no capital to compare.
Yun Ziqing looked back on the first two months when she first entered the palace, and it was really embarrassing to say it, she actually wanted to commit suicide, but she didn't have the courage to commit suicide, thinking that one day she would get into trouble if she was messing around. Then you would have to die.
If it weren't for the fact that one day, after falling down a remote step and meeting him, she would not have tried her best to get out of the palace, nor would she have willingly stayed in this palace after learning that there was no hope of leaving the palace.
Yun Ziqing's smiling eyes narrowed into a slit: "Niangniang, it is enough for Ziqing to stay in this harem so quietly, and she must try to treat herself as a transparent person." ”
Nalan Lan'er looked at her exuded happiness and didn't know what she thought, so she didn't bother to let the palace maid outside the door come in and clean up, and she and Yun Ziqing got up and walked out of the door.
It's quite cold now, and you have to use a jacket or a thick cloak when you go out. Nalan Lan'er was dressed very thickly, on the other hand, Yun Ziqing was very thin, and as soon as the wind blew, she shivered closer to Nalan Lan'er.
Nalan Lan'er only now found out that she was wearing very little, and said with a frown: "Didn't the Internal Affairs Office give you thick clothes in the palace?" ”
Yun Ziqing shook her head: "Back to Niangniang, a few days ago, I sent winter clothes, and this one on my body is." ”
