Chapter 59: Killing Two Birds with One Stone
Bai Jin shook his head slightly, "You and my brothers don't need to be polite. It's just that I look at the queen mother, it seems that there is a great prejudice against Liuxi, and it seems that I don't like it very much, even if I let her go this time, you have to be careful in the future. ”
"Thank you brother for reminding me, but my brother is too worried." Baiyuan smiled helplessly: "The queen mother is too disciplined, and Liu Xi ...... Growing up in the mountains, although it is interesting and innocent, it is too unseemly in the eyes of the queen mother, so it will be aimed at her, and when she comes back this time, I will teach her the rules of the royal court, and I will not anger the queen mother again. ”
I know that things shouldn't be that simple. Treating a maid, the queen also reacted too much. It's just that he has already said what he reminded, so it's hard to say more at this time.
After the king left, Ruan Zhen, who was standing in a corner of the hall, came over and asked, "Auntie, are we really going to release Liuxi?" ”
She is not reconciled!
That Liuxi, since she was imprisoned in the water prison, she has also tried it. has no scheming, let alone talent, it's just a straw bale! Nothing to be desired except that face!
However, it is such a person who makes Baiyuan defend it like this, and even does not hesitate to fight with her aunt for her!
If she Liuxi had the ability to return to the United States, Ruan Zhen might feel better in her heart. But for a person who is inferior to herself everywhere, how willing does this make her!
"The king has already spoken, what can he do if he doesn't let go?" Ruan Tianyou gritted his teeth and said, "Although the person has been released, I can still be the master when it is sent to Zhaowei Palace!" ”
Ruan Zhen's eyes lit up, and he listened to the queen's instructions: "Go to Zhaowei Palace and tell Yuan'er that Liu Xi will stay in my Lingyun Palace and let her learn the rules for a few days!" ”
"Yes, Auntie! Let's do it! Ruan Zhen finally had a smile on his face and replied briskly.
The queen took her hand, "Just let the people below do it!" You kid, you are too sincere, when you go to Zhaowei Palace at this time, don't you let Yuan'er complain about you? ”
She patted the back of Ruan Zhen's hand comfortingly, and pulled her to sit down, "Don't worry, my aunt loves you, as long as there is an aunt for a day, no one can go past you, and I hope that the position of the son's wife can only be yours!" ”
"Thank you so much, auntie!" The corners of Ruan Zhen's mouth couldn't help but bend, and he got up and saluted the queen softly.
The queen helped her up with her own hands, and said to her with a cruel look in her eyes: "Now, that maid doesn't know what lowly method she has used to let Yuan'er defend her like this, this person must not stay, otherwise there will be endless troubles, you know?" ”
Ruan Zhen hesitated: "Where is that cousin......"
"Silly boy! Naturally, I can't let Wan'er know about this. The queen sighed, "Yuan'er has been honest and honest since she was a child, and she has no heart to guard against others, and she is not good at dealing with all kinds of calculations behind her. You are going to marry Yuan'er in the future, and it depends on you for these things that he is not good at. ”
"Auntie, don't worry, Zhen'er will work hard so that my cousin has no worries." Ruan Zhen said seriously.
The queen was very happy to hear this, and patiently taught her, "After Liu Xi is put back, you will find a way to send her out of the royal court in two days, and you will be able to do it in Chuanfang City." ”
Ruan really wanted to respond, and suddenly thought of Bai Jin, who invited the king to restrain her aunt, and she rolled her eyes and thought about it.
"Auntie, Zhen'er doesn't think it's necessary to be so troublesome. Now His Royal Highness is less and less interested in his aunt, why don't we kill two birds with one stone? ”
"How do you kill two birds with one stone? Tell us what you think! As soon as the queen heard this, she was angry and was very interested in Ruan Zhen's plan.
Ruan Zhen said his thoughts with a sneer in his eyes.
When the queen heard this, she was very satisfied, "This is a very good plan! Really smart, it's really better than blue! ”
"Then Zhen'er will go down and make arrangements?"
"Go ahead, but Bai Zhen has always been cautious, and he has seven exquisite hearts, so be careful!" The queen confessed uneasily.
"Zhen'er understands, Zhen'er retires."
After Bai Yuan went back, he didn't wait until it was dark to come to Liuxi, but only waited for the queen to send someone to bring it, so he would stay in Lingyun Palace for a few days and teach her the rules.
Of course, Bai Yuan knew that Liu Xi was afraid that he would have to suffer some hardships if he stayed in Lingyun Palace, but he couldn't rush to ask for someone. The queen mother has already promised to let Liu Xi go, if he goes to ask for someone now, the queen mother is afraid that Liu Xi will suffer.
Baiyuan had to endure his anxiety and worry, and waited for Liu Xi to return.
At this time, Liu Xi, who was in the water prison, had not entered the rice water for a day, and when he was released, he had no strength in his whole body.
She rested for the night, and before dawn the next day, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes when she was pulled out of the bed and began to learn the rules of the royal court.
The queen even used the excuse of teaching rules to make Liuxi suffer. And so it took a few more days before she was put back.
When Baiyuan saw Liuxi again, he was no longer the innocent and lively Liuxi, but an exhausted Liuxi.
When she saw Bai Yuan again, she immediately grabbed his sleeve, "I don't want to stay in the royal court anymore, it's too terrible here, I want to go back, can you send me back?" ”
Baiyuan took her shoulders distressedly and took her back to the room specially arranged for her.
He looked at Liu Xi and said gently: "Don't be afraid, this is Zhaowei Palace, it will be fine!" I will take good care of you in the future, and it will be fine! ”
With the protection of a hundred wishes, Liu Xi's days in Zhaowei Palace became relaxed and leisurely again. From time to time, she can still go to the Le Palace, and Bai Yuan does not restrain her too much in order to make up for her.
On this day, Liu Xi was basking in the sun in the courtyard of Hele Palace, and a maid came to her with a pastry and asked, "Liu Xi, do you want to try this orchid cake?" ”
"Orchid cake?" Liuxi, who had never eaten this kind of pastry, was a little curious and took a piece and tasted it.
"Well, it really tastes good, what is this made of, why is it so delicious?" As she spoke, she took another piece and put it in her mouth.
The maid watched her eat sweetly, with a very shallow smile on her lips, "This orchid cake was first made by Shenghui Pavilion, and I heard that it was a method that Gui Shaoshen came up with." But this pastry is easy to learn, but this orchid is not so easy to obtain. ”
"Orchids?" Liuxi swallowed the contents of her mouth, looked at her and said, "I know there is a place where there are many, many orchids!" ”
The maid smiled, "You're talking about the orchids in that valley on the shore of Xingshen Lake, right?" It's full of orchids planted by His Royal Highness, and we can't pick them at will. However, if you are familiar with His Highness, you can still ask for some. ”
"Me and Your Highness? Familiar with it! Liu Xi thought for a moment and said, "And His Highness is very gentle, and he seems to be very talkative, if I go and ask for some orchids, he should give them, right?" ”
The maid seemed interested, "Then you go and ask for some back, and I'll make you more to eat." Besides, you were able to get out of Lingyun Palace so quickly this time, and thanks to His Highness moving the king out, you were able to come out of Lingyun Palace! ”
It was the first time Liu Xi had heard of this, "If that's the case, then I should thank him well." ”
