Chapter 92: Gift-giving
I finally saw that I had not slept all night, and at this time I was kneeling in the Ling Mo Pavilion, yawning uncontrollably, and although I had tried my best to endure it, my eyelids still could not be successfully raised.
Listening to ** constantly praising me in front of Xiao Ziling, I had to wonder if she was playing some tricks again.
Sure enough, when the words "personal maid" jumped out of her mouth, my sluggish state was suddenly awakened, and I quickly raised my head and shook my head while giving Xiao Ziling a reluctant look hint.
I don't know if he's still angry with me, or if he doesn't understand the meaning at all. He only glanced at me faintly, and then readily agreed.
After Xiao Ziling left, she pulled me up with a smile on her face, she changed her fiery temper in the past, not only did she not sneer at me, but she even made amends to me.
Now I couldn't feel her mind anymore, and I was trembling and casually coping, while refusing to let go of any expression on her face.
She said: "Xinyuan, what happened last time was that this concubine was wrong, and Ziling also punished me severely. This concubine knows that the prince loves you, and even if the concubine is unwilling, she has to look at the prince's face. Xinyuan, this concubine asked the prince to come over, just so that you can better familiarize yourself with the affairs of this house, and in the future, the prince will marry you, so that he can help the concubine take care of the family affairs together. She smiled and smiled.
I swallowed my saliva and said, "The princess laughed, there were slaves and maids in the last incident, and I ask the princess to forgive her sins." ”
"Where, this concubine is not an unreasonable person. We have written off the previous grievances, from now on, you are the sister-in-law of the concubine, if the people in the house dare to treat you badly, it is against the concubine! As she spoke, she summoned the maid, and I saw that the maid was holding a small box of exquisite workmanship, and before she opened the lid, a faint fragrance had already hit her face.
"It's..."I don't have any interest in these incense or anything like that, and I remember that the mild-looking, but actually cruel masters in the TV series like to give away spices, and they have a great rejection of this box of incense.
"This is given to the concubine by the prince, and the concubine has been reluctant to use it, but now it really comes in handy. Xinyuan, if you recognize me as a sister, take it. She smiled very cheerfully, as if she was really happy that she had recognized a girl.
I hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up the box and put it in the hidden pocket of my sleeve.
**Seeing that I accepted the incense box, I was a little happier than just now. She pulled me to sit down and continued: "Sister, we will be a family from now on, if you need anything, just tell your sister." ”
I could only nod my head in agreement. When I went back, Yun Xi was already anxiously waiting for me outside the courtyard, and when I appeared in front of her safely, the expression on my face softened a little.
"Yun Xi, help me find out if there is a problem with this box of spices?" I pulled her into the house quickly, and the first thing I did was to take out the incense box that ** gave me.
Yun Xi carefully opened the lid, and the strong smell wafted out of it, so I had to cover my nose tightly, for fear of inhaling something I shouldn't have inhaled.
"It's just a normal spice, and it's not poisonous." Yun Xi twisted and smelled it in his hand, and it took a long time before he said slowly. I don't know how she could tell it, but even though she said that, I still had a hint of doubt in my heart.
Seeing that I still didn't believe it, she simply covered the incense box, threw it directly into the lake outside the window, and winked at me mischievously: "Wouldn't it be worry-free." ”
"But... After all, this was given by the princess, what if she remembered to ask me one day? I ran to the window, watched the water ripples become calm, and asked with some concern.
Yun Xi pulled my body, she seemed to hate my incompetence, nodded my forehead and said, "Stupid! In this palace, as long as you can hook the heart of the prince, who can bully you! What's more, this thing has already been given to you by the princess, even if it is your thing, isn't it up to you what you want to do? ”
After her dialing it so little, I also figured it out, if ** really remembered, I would casually make up a reason, anyway, she didn't know.
I returned to my usual lightness, smiled wickedly at Yun Xi, and said, "Okay, you dare to teach me a lesson, see if I don't scratch you to death!" While she was still calling me stupid, I quickly put my hands on her waist and started a fight with her.
Although I have become the personal maid of **, but in fact I still live my own free life, every day she will only summon me when I am eating or bored, and let me chat with her to relieve my boredom, to put it bluntly, I am just showing off to me that Xiao Ziling gave her something again, or spent the night with her.
This kind of agitation method is not useful to me at all, because since I knew that Xiao Ziling married her just to get the power behind her, my mind is not as narrow as before.
But I'm still very cooperative, occasionally smiling with a forced face, but I've been stealing joy in my heart.
When I got bored in the house, I had the idea to go out. Although the capital is big, but the places I have actually been to are only inns, green buildings, I remember all the times I have seen before, the casino is also one of the must-go places, so I came to the interest, and planned to take Yunxi to the casino to visit.
I thought that Yun Xi would persuade me first, so I found all the words before telling her what I thought, but she not only did not object, but actually agreed and prepared some silver for me. I didn't expect such a smooth approach, and I excitedly pulled her to jump many times to stop the fun.
We disguised ourselves as little servants, and when everything was ready, we sneaked out of the palace through the back door and headed straight for the gambling house.
There are a lot of people in the gambling house, and there are even more people who dress the same as us. It was a very noisy place, all kinds of foul language kept coming into the ears, and an extremely unpleasant smell filled the air.
Yun Xi and I were tightly held together, and from time to time I was bumped into by the people around me, and I felt extremely uncomfortable all over my body.
"You're new here!" Just when we were overwhelmed, someone had already spotted us. I looked in the direction from which the voice came, and I saw a lean middle-aged man walking towards us, with a small mustache on his face and his eyes narrowed into thin slits, constantly looking up and down on me and Yun Xi, as if admiring a very strange thing.
