Jiu'er went back to Xia Mengning's house and put the food on the table, Xia Mengning walked to the table and sat down, and said, "Can you add vegetables to the frost?" ”

Jiu'er nodded, "The slave maid just went to deliver a dish of lotus tofu, and by the way, I told the slave maid what you asked the slave to do." ”

Xia Mengning nodded, "She is a person who can forbear, and her scheming is deep enough, if she can stop the precipice in time, I can still take her in, but if she is still obsessed, then no one can save her." ”

Jiu'er nodded and served Xia Mengning the dishes.

While eating, Wu Qing walked in sweating profusely, Jiu'er pinched his nose with his hand and said, "Wu Qing, where did you run again, you got the smell of sweat all over your body." ”

Wu Qing lowered his head and sniffed his body, and said in surprise: "What, does it smell bad?" ”

Jiu'er couldn't stop nodding, but Wu Qing didn't care, walked to Xia Mengning and sat down, took a chicken leg in his hand and gnawed on it and said: "The drought in the northwest, the people can't farm, and they have been fleeing to the capital one after another in the past few days, but the death of the disease that died on the way, the emperor was furious, and left all the ministers in the palace to kneel, and he was bound to come up with a solution." ”

Xia Mengning drank the soup in the bowl and said, "I've heard about this, but I didn't know that it would make such a big fuss in a short period of time." ”

Wu Qing finished eating the chicken legs, reached out and took another one, and said, "I went to my senior brother just now, and I learned that my senior brother was sent by the emperor to the northwest to investigate. ”

Xia Mengning was stunned, "It turns out that the emperor is also suspicious." ”

Wu Qing nodded, "Now the emperor is worried about this matter, but I am afraid that whoever can solve this matter now will become the emperor's new favorite." ”

Xia Mengning smiled, "This is a matter of the previous dynasty, we don't have to worry too much." ”

Wu Qing shook his head, "Eldest Sun Mo is already raising money everywhere, it seems that he wants to handle this matter well so as to leave a good impression on the emperor." ”

Xia Mengning frowned, "He married Tanglin Xingluo, which can be regarded as having a relationship with the Western Regions, but it's a pity that no one knows what Donglin Mo is thinking, now that the prince is exiled, everyone is staring at the position of this prince, and it is understandable that the eldest grandson Mo has some thoughts." ”

When Wu Qing heard this, he looked down and said, "You're not worried at all?" Now that the senior brother is favored by the emperor like this, the world says that the senior brother is the most promising candidate to become the prince, and if the eldest grandson Mo does not give up, he will definitely take the senior brother first. ”

Xia Mengning smiled, and said lightly: "If Eldest Sun Yun doesn't even have this ability, then he is not Eldest Sun Yun." ”

Later, when Changsun Yun heard Wu Qing say this to himself, he smiled slightly, "Those who know me, Ning Er also." ”

After finishing the meal, Xia Mengning was reading on the couch, Liushuang lifted the door curtain and walked in, and said timidly: "Miss, the slave maid brought you the washed clothes." ”

Xia Mengning smiled and waved her hand, "Put it in that box in the corner." ”

Liushuang bowed her head in response, walked to the corner and opened the box and put it in, but her eyes kept looking at the box on the side.

After putting away the clothes, Xia Mengning said: "Liushuang, how are you doing, have they bullied you again?" ”

Liushuang was flattered, but she didn't expect Xia Mengning, who was cold on weekdays, to talk to her so gently, and hurriedly bowed her head and said, "No, Miss Xie is worried." ”

Xia Mengning smiled, put down the book in her hand, reached out and took her hand, and said with a smile: "I don't know why, I always feel that I have a fate with you, you are good-looking and very smart, I like you very much." ”

Liushuang hurriedly shook his head, "Liushuang doesn't dare, being able to serve Miss is Liushuang's greatest blessing." ”

Xia Mengning had a warm smile on his face, but the frost under his eyes was looming, and he said, "Don't worry, as long as you can follow me well, I will definitely tell you a good family matter." ”

There was a hint of blush on Liushuang's face, and he didn't speak shyly.

Xia Mengning smiled and asked casually, "How is your female celebrity?" ”

Knowing that this was an opportunity, Liushuang hurriedly shook her head, "I just know how to sew and mend clothes, and I haven't learned embroidery." ”

Xia Mengning was puzzled, pretending not to know and asked, "Seeing that you have some calluses on your hands, I thought you had been doing embroidery for a long time." ”

Liushuang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly withdrew his hand and smiled awkwardly: "No, Miss, this is all grinded out when I do rough work on weekdays." ”

Xia Mengning smiled, took a sachet from the small table on the side and handed it to her, and said: "Recently, the day has gradually become hotter, and there are more mosquitoes, snakes and ants. ”

Liushuang was overjoyed, and hurriedly took it, but listened to Xia Mengning again: "Look at whether you like this pattern or not, it is simply made by the embroidery girl invited from the house, if you don't like it, go and change it again." ”

When Liushuang heard this, the joy in his heart turned into smoke, and he smiled and said, "Miss Xie rewards, and the slave likes it very much." ”

Xia Mengning smiled, "You go and help me get the sewing basket." ”

Liushuang looked at the direction of Xia Mengning's finger, hurriedly put the sachet into the sleeve cage, walked over and took off the sewing basket on tiptoe.

Xia Mengning picked up the purse inside and said to herself: "I can only make purses when I am idle, and I have done so much back and forth." ”

As he spoke, he sneered to himself, looked at Liushuang and said, "You go down first." ”

Liushuang retreated, and just as she walked out of the door, she saw Jiu'er coming over with a tray, and Liushuang hurriedly saluted: "Sister Jiu'er." ”

Jiu'er smiled, gave a flat salute to Liushuang, and said, "I don't need you to serve tonight, I have to accompany Miss to draw embroidery patterns." ”

Liushuang nodded yes, and Jiu'er walked past her and into the house.

Jiu'er entered the house, and saw Xia Mengning supporting her cheek with one hand, and fiddling with the silk thread in the sewing basket with the other hand, Jiu'er smiled and said, "Miss, Sister Zhulian has made a Youth League, you can eat one." ”

Xia Mengning looked at it and said, "I missed it a lot a few days ago, but now I see it, but I don't like it so much." ”

Jiu'er was stunned for a moment, but she still put the delicate blue and white glazed porcelain plate in front of Xia Mengning, and said, "Miss is worried about the frost thing?" ”

Xia Mengning nodded and shook her head, dipped a Qingtuan with chopsticks and dipped it in sesame sauce, raised her head again and said: "Jiu'er, you said this battle, when is it the end, if I get married, I will face endless battles in the future, I am really tired of it......"

Xia Mengning took the chopsticks, stirred back and forth in the sesame paste, and sighed: "Speaking of which, how can I be alone in this deep mansion compound, if I don't fight, fight, or plan, I'm afraid that there are no bones left." ”

Jiu'er just listened quietly, and then said: "Miss don't worry, the prince likes you and feels sorry for you, when you get married, there is the prince to protect you, you don't have to be so tired." ”

Xia Mengning smiled, put the Qingtuan in his mouth and ate it, and said: "You're right, there will be a day when I will get through, what I can do now is to work hard to protect myself and the people I love, and survive until that day." ”

In the evening, after dinner, the people all rested in the house, and the frost and the green and green were all in the same room, sleeping on the big bed.

Liushuang wore a new second-class girl's dress, embroidered with green branches and small light-colored petals, although it was not very precious, but it was much better than the coarse linen clothes she wore before.

When Liuyan and Liuru Liucui walked in, Liushuang was carefully braiding her hair in front of the mirror, and there was a box of jewelry that Xia Meng admired on the table, although it was not precious, but it was also something that these girls couldn't afford to wear on weekdays.

Liuyan saw it, pouted and said, "Why does this second-class girl still live with us, and she has the ability to move out and live by herself." ”

As he spoke, he slammed the basin in his hand to the ground, and the water cup in the basin fell out and splashed on the frosty skirt.

Liushuang was angry, hurriedly stood up and patted the water stains on her skirt, smiled contemptuously, crossed her waist and said, "Phew! Don't think that if you please Miss, you will be a class above us, and never forget that you are just a subordinate. ”

Liushuang raised his head, the anger in his heart exploded in an instant, Liuyan was a little frightened by Liushuang's glance, although Liushuang in his memory was always silent, but he had never been so fierce.

Liushuang desperately endured the anger in his body, clenched his palms tightly, Liuyan was startled, and hurriedly stepped back and said, "You...... What do you want to do......"

When Liushuang raised her head again, her face had regained her calmness, and she closed the dresser and hurried out.

Liuyan patted his chest, "Phew, what kind of bear look, you still want to bluff me." ”

Liuru is an honest man, but he didn't speak lightly, but Liucui, and said with some trepidation: "Liuyan, we all came in together, why are you trying to squeeze out Liushuang." ”

Liuyan glared at her, shook the handkerchief in his hand and said angrily: "I said Liucui, shouldn't you see that Liushuang's little hooves have won the favor of the master, just come and pat yourself like this, and don't look at yourself, do you still want to learn from others to fight grievances?" ”

Liucui was embarrassed by Liuyan's words, and she didn't make a sound, silently pushed aside and stopped talking.

Liuyan glanced at her, proudly put the basin in his hand on the table, and washed his hands.

Liushuang walked out, hid his body by the night, came to the back door, looked around to see that there was no one, and then jumped lightly, climbed over the wall, and stood on the street in the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This is a small alley, a few steps forward is the bustling street, after Liushuang stood firm, only to see a sedan chair has stopped there, Liushuang hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and saluted: "The slave has seen the master." ”

The curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, revealing a delicate face, "Get up, how are things going?" ”

Liushuang bit her lip and said: "The slave is useless, Xia Meng's defense is tight, and the slave and maid can't find the time to start." ”

The man in the sedan chair looked slightly grim and said, "You mean that you are ready to die?" ”

The murderous aura in his eyes suddenly came out, and Liushuang hit a spirit, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The slave doesn't dare, the slave doesn't dare ......"

The man in the sedan chair smiled, his bloodthirsty eyes exuding a faint light, "Flowing Frost, you know that I never leave useless people." ”

Liushuang nodded hurriedly, and the person in the sedan chair sighed, and his voice seemed to float from a long distance, "Dong Wanwan, the daughter of Dong Jiancheng, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, is my person, you go to her and let her help you." ”

Liushuang nodded secretly, and when he raised his head again, the sedan chair was gone.

It was a windy night, and Liushuang stood up, but he felt as if his whole body had been soaked in water.
