Chapter 4 The Three Highnesses Who Have No Quality
4. Chapter 4 The Three Highnesses Who Have No Qualities
The winter in the south is different from the north, its cold and ice are not so distinct, not dry and cold and biting, but with a little moist and cold water, as if they are two means of confrontation on the battlefield, the winter in the north is the kind of ferocity of the real knife and real gun, and the winter in the south is a roundabout and tactful entanglement.
It's like a kind of hatred or a kind of love. It's not so stark and direct, but it's just as sentimental.
Because Ning Xiang, who took off her coat for the sake of beauty that day, fell ill when she returned to her small room after witnessing the beauty of the faceless adult, Lang Zhong came to take a look, saying that it was a cold and needed to recuperate. It's also strange to say that in the past few days, many of the subordinates have been sick one after another, and less than half of the people have been asked to do the work, and Ruoxi is tired every day and has no time to change his clothes and sleep.
Originally, she didn't need to do the heavy work like other subordinates so hard, but because Madame Yu took special care of her, she rewarded her with some food and clothes from time to time, so that when the whole Xin Shifang saw her, it was like looking at a piece of walking gold.
It's just that she hasn't been to the Ouchi for the past few days, because she is really afraid that the scene of that day will happen again......
That day was the day when Zhong Wuyan went to the north hall of His Royal Highness to taste tea, and she quietly ran out of the crowd, but she didn't expect to meet the third highness of the black belly, Wei Sa.
"What's your name, and which master are you serving now?" He squatted in front of her and was a head and a half taller than her, and suddenly a sense of oppression swept over the world.
Hard-headed, Ruoxi didn't dare to breathe, and he didn't dare to raise his head, and he spoke like fried beans, "Little Ruoxi, working in the Evergreen Palace, serving Mrs. Yu." ”
"Oh, it's her." Wei Sa replied softly, turned his head and glanced at the two people who were surrounded by water, "Working under that woman, your ability is not small." ”
Listening to his tone lightly, it seemed that he was still a little disappointed, Ruoxi couldn't help but lift his eyelids curiously, secretly thinking that this person was really unscrupulous and lawless and arrogant in the palace.
"Where does the little one have any ability, but thanks to Mrs. Yu's blue eyes, she will give her a full meal."
"I have a good mouth." He stood up, as if he was going to leave, but after Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief, he squatted down again, leaning over to smell the smell of her, and the posture was as ambiguous as it was. Finally his gaze lingered on her cheek, and he ordered, "Keep your head up." ”
"Small...... The appearance is ugly, unbearable, and those who see the small ones are guaranteed to not be able to eat for three days, sleep for four days, and ...... for five days."
"What so much nonsense." Unexpectedly, he reached out with two fingers and pinched Ruoxi's chin, forcing her to raise her head and look at him.
Between black and white, it was not pure brightness, as if it was sad and painful with a little resentment, mixed with traces of being frightened by his sudden movements, Wei Sa looked at this pair of eyes, as if it were a pair of bottomless deep wells, cold with a comfortable coolness, barely looked away, at the end, sighed, and plucked the crooked flower on her head. walked away step by step, still humming a minor tune that Ruoxi had heard that day.
When he disappeared completely, Ruoxi woke up to what had just happened, his cheeks couldn't help but heat up, he raised his hand and touched his head, and then spat on the ground, "What." ”
The so-called good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. Ruoxi was teased by the Third Highness, and it soon spread in the palace and outside the palace. So much so that it attracted many other palace maids and maids, and miscellaneous servants to come over to watch, who was the woman who was favored by the Third Highness this time.
But no one who came to see her didn't shake their heads, sigh, and leave with pity, as if they were sorry to see a huge beautiful jade being hit by a piece of shit.
Obviously, Wei Sa is Meiyu, and Ruoxi is the shit that makes Meiyu dusty.
Ning Xiang was lying on the bed in a daze and watched Ruoxi calmly continue the work in her hands, and outside the window was a group of young men and girls who came to watch, and couldn't help but complain, "I really admire your patience, Sister Ruoxi, are these people still finished?" ”
"I'm sorry Ning Xiang, it affected your rest." Ruoxi turned around and smiled apologetically at her, put the twisted handkerchief in her hand on her forehead, and probed it with her hand, "You still have a fever, don't be so excited." ”
"People don't have a fever at all, it's just that they're very excited to see the beauty of Lord Wuyan," Ning Xiang grabbed the ice towel on her head and shook the droplets on her hair.
However, the chickens, ducks and geese outside the house were still chattering.
"Oh, it's her~! @##¥%”
"Your Royal Highness~! @#¥%%”
"It's so pitiful~! @@##¥%”
Ning Xiang gritted her silver teeth when she heard it in the room, and said fiercely, "Sister Ruoxi, can I release rhubarb to bite them all to death?" ”
"It's too hard to bite, just scare away." Ruoxi replied calmly. "But in that case......" Before she could finish her sentence, she heard the sound of Ning Xiang's big feet running outside crackling, followed by a loud barking of dogs and the sound of crying for help and crying for her mother...... It's a headache wailing.
Ning Xiang clapped her hands and asked with a comfortable smile, "What did you want to say about Sister Ruoxi just now?" ”
"In that case, we will be veritable slaves." Ruoxi sighed and finished the second half of the sentence.
"So what, Lady Jade likes you so much anyway. No one dares to chew the root of the tongue. ”
Ruoxi put down the basin in her hand this time and looked at her seriously, "The more you feel safe, the more dangerous it is, do you understand when you are prepared for danger in times of peace?" Moreover, we are just servants who serve others, we are subordinates, no matter how Mrs. Yu is, it is impossible to cover me for the rest of my life, in fact, living in this world cannot have the idea of relying on others, in that case, I can only die a miserable death. ”
It was as if the little princess trusted her future colt so much, and she believed that the good-looking boy would open the door for herself on that rainy night, welcome herself in with a smile, make ginger tea and tell jokes, make her happy, and tell her that everything will be okay and everything will pass.
In the end, everything is all over, in the absence of him, in the case of the destruction of the family and the extinction of the country, all of them have passed. Like the torrential rain that came and went quickly that night. The rapid erosion left no special traces.
"Sister Ruoxi? What happened to you? Ning Xiang saw Ruoxi stunned in a daze, and couldn't help but reach out and push her.
"Ah, nothing."
After all, Ning Xiang has been lying for many days, and she has no strength on her body, so she found a chair and sat down, "I am fifteen this year, and you are sixteen this year, only one year older than me, but I always feel as if you have experienced a lot of things, sometimes what you say, I have to think for several days to figure it out." ”
"What's the matter then," Ruoxi shrugged indifferently and picked up a rag to wipe the antique vase in the house, "Does what Sister Ruoxi said make sense?" ”
"Makes sense." Ning Xiang nodded fiercely, "It's very reasonable." ”
"Then you can just listen to it!" Ruoxi threw the rag on her, "Now Sister Ruoxi, I order you to go back to bed and lie down!" ”
Outside, the hem of the azure clothes flashed, and the boots inlaid with gold and silver thread carried a faint smell of bergamot, heading towards the location of the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
Along the way, there was always an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, and the scholar Baoyan trotted after him all the way. Because last night was another night of warbler and swallow language, today's morning dynasty natural Wei Sa still did not catch up, I wanted to rest in the house as usual, but I didn't expect the old emperor to summon him into the palace with a will, halfway he heard the noise of dogs barking and human voices in Xin's room, so he planned to come and have a look, but he didn't expect him to see her, and hear her words.
In this world, you can't have the idea of relying on others, in that case, you can only die a miserable death......
It turned out that there was such a penetrating understanding under her cunning appearance, and Wei Sa suddenly felt that she seemed to be very interested in this little girl with an average appearance and a mediocre figure.
"Treasure Flame." The person in front suddenly stopped and ordered, "At noon, you find an excuse to break Ruoxi away and don't let her go back to her room." Got it? ”
***
At noon, Ruoxi, who had been busy all morning, was exhausted and dragged his two legs step by step to the miscellaneous room behind the Evergreen Palace, because of Mrs. Yu's special care, so she could live alone in a small room, although the room was not big, but it was also an independent space, compared to sleeping on the incense of the Chase Shop, it was already a lot better.
The door of the house was two hundred meters away, Ruoxi cheered herself, fantasizing about going back to hold the roast chicken for a better life. Suddenly, a figure appeared in the snowdrift on the side of the road, and she fell back a few steps in fright.
This person is not big, obviously only a teenager, but he is extremely old-fashioned, and after seeing her, there was a look of disappointment in his two eyes, which made Ruoxi very strange.
"This little brother, is there anything wrong with you?" She asked with a good-natured smile. The subtext of this sentence is: the little rabbit cub jumped out to scare the old lady, and if there is something to say, just leave the old lady and stay away.
Bao Yan obviously didn't see the meaning in her stomach, and nodded kindly, "This is Ruoxi, right?" My master heard that you are very good at cooking, so he sent me over to ask you to come to the kitchen for some guidance. ”
His words are extremely old-fashioned, and people are not picky.
Ruoxi frowned, "Excuse me, who is the master of your family?" ”
Bao Yan instantly pulled down his face, "What? Listen to my sister, what do you mean by this, it depends on who is the person who speaks, so that you can decide whether to go or not? ”
Sky! This is a big problem, in this big palace, this is what I am most afraid of! Because you never imagined that maybe the two masters who were on the same page today would be able to wear a pair of pants tomorrow. Ruoxi secretly scolded himself for being careless for a while, and he was not careful in speaking, so he quickly smiled all over his face, and stretched out his hand to stretch Baoyan's sleeve, "Ouch, look at my mouth, what you teach me is that it is my honor to be able to cook for a master of a talent like my little brother!" Yes, I'll go with you. ”
Bao Yan shook her hand in disgust and shook off her pair of ghost claws, her eyebrows twisted so widely, secretly thinking that the current aesthetics of the Third Highness were simply outrageous.
On that side, Wei Sa was taking advantage of the time when people were eating at noon, and quietly slipped into the back of the Evergreen Palace, a small courtyard.
From the north, the door of the third main house is inlaid with a plaque that reads in green paint: Bai Ruoxi. Looks like this is where she lives. The third prince of the current dynasty didn't feel that there was anything wrong with a dignified prince doing this kind of behavior like stealing chickens and touching dogs, but he carefully inspected it in her room.
Drawers, bed boards, flower pots, bronze mirrors, everything did not escape his eyes, and Wei Sa, who was sitting next to the table and observing the room, suddenly fell on a small wooden box on the dresser, the wooden box was obviously very old, and the entire red wood was exposed, and in some places it was still a little rotten and rotten. But you can still see the faint traces of painting on it, the simple and straightforward carving, Wei Sa decided at a glance that this was not something produced in the Southern Dynasty.
When he opened it, it was divided into three layers, each layer was a delicate small drawer, and when he turned to the third layer, a smug smile appeared on Junyi's face, and he reached out and took out a jade pendant inside, and took out the hosta that had been prepared in his sleeve to combine the two into one. The jade pendant is very properly hung on the top of the hosta's head, the color is consistent, the texture is commensurate, and it is clearly a perfect whole!
"This time, how can you explain it if you are as cunning? Bai Ruoxi. ”
