Chapter 54: Yu Qi is missing
Bai Yi smiled, "It's okay, I'm ready." ”
"Huh." Xiao Liuzi immediately came over to sit down, and carefully stretched out his hand to take a piece.
"By the way, Wen Jiao, hasn't Yu Qi come back yet?" Bai Yi asked, it's been a long time.
"Hey, I haven't seen anyone, and I've been there for too long." Wen Jiao also realized.
"What's wrong?" Magnolia asked.
"Today I asked him to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. I went early today, but I just asked him to sign up for a list, and he hasn't come back yet, and it's been several hours. Bai Yi said, there was always some discomfort in his heart at this time.
"It should be fine, Yu Qi has always been smart, there should be a delay on the way." Magnolia said.
"Also, don't worry, princess, who is Yu Qi? He is the only one who fools others. Wen Jiao didn't feel worried about Yu Qi. The last time I let the princess get the title, it was obviously smart.
"Also, I don't know who I'm going to play chess again. By the way, Yulan, you are good at making some shortbread that you are good at, and I haven't seen the queen for a long time. Bai Yi said.
"Okay, little six, let's do it." Magnolia stood up.
"Gotcha."
After leaving, Bai Yi began to be stunned, Wen Jiao didn't speak, she sat on the swing by herself, didn't shake but sit. Looking out at the treetops outside the palace walls.
"What do you think!" Bai Yi asked.
"It's nothing, I just think that in this palace, it looks calm and quiet, but who knows what others are thinking!" Wen Jiao said.
"yes, peacefully. It's like the sea. Bai Yi thought.
"Forget it, I'm still sad when spring comes." Wen Jiao laughed at herself.
"Still, you're living a thorough life." Bai Yi smiled bitterly.
I don't know how long I chatted before the aroma wafted in.
"What are you two talking about?" Magnolia came over with a basket for food delivery.
"The fragrance is seductive, if I were a man, I would be fascinated by you." Bai Yi smiled.
"Why not my daughter?" Magnolia joked.
"Let's go, the queen is far away from the palace, while it's still early, let's go early and return early." Wen Jiao, you should guard the palace well! If there is a moth, I will only ask you. "Bai Yi explained.
"Yes, yes, please rest assured, Your Highness the Princess."
Out of the palace, in the high red wall road, the two followed the side.
After the Yan Lake, walk all the way forward, pass the Imperial Garden and turn left, there is quiet, and the Queen Mother will live there for a long time.
Bai Yi knocked on the red palace door and saw the old grandmother, "Hello grandma." ”
"The little princess is here. Quick, the Queen is thinking of you! Mama took them to the main hall.
It is dominated by flowers and plants, and there are bird cages hanging in the corridors, so you can't hear the sound of chirping along the way. There are few slaves and maids in this palace, so the grandmother and two or three people take care of the diet and daily life. However, these people are all very experienced in the palace, and they have served the queen for most of their lives.
This is a small corner of the palace, but the palace is well-maintained.
Seeing the man who was cultivating flowers, Bai Yi immediately saluted, "The queen is well." ”
"Yi Yi is here, hurry up." He put down the scissors. Sit down.
"yes, by the way, Iyi brought some freshly made shortbread." Bai Yi said.
Yulan brought it over, and Mama took out a piece for the queen, and he tasted it, "Well~, yes, the craftsmanship and the imperial dining room have to fight." ”
"It looks good, too." Mama said.
"yes, I love this pastry." The Queen laughed.
"If the Queen likes it, it's fine."
"It's time for Yi Yi to come too, I haven't seen you in a long time."
Bai Yi smiled, "I went to Qingbo Town some time ago, and I just came back not long ago, no, I picked a good day and came." ”
"You little girl, can the second girl be safe during this time?"
"Hmm."
"Also, it's good to have a title, I heard the empress say that it is appropriate to obtain, the words are good, and it is worthy of you." The Queen said.
Suddenly, the queen suddenly motioned for Mama to take a box out, and Mama brought it.
The queen took out a phoenix hairpin inside and said. "This was built for the Empress Dowager when I was crowned queen. Looking at it now, it's still as gorgeous and dazzling, but I'm old. ”
"How could it be, the queen is in the same spirit as back then."
"You're flamboyant now, I know it myself, but now I think of the scenes when I'm young, and I'm emotional, it's just that the Empress left too early, and I'm old. This hairpin is useless, you come here. The queen said to Bai Yi.
Bai Yi was surprised, "Absolutely not! ”
"Why not? When my time comes, this hairpin will really be abandoned! You look good with it! The Queen insisted on this.
Mama also said, "The princess will accept it, the queen has some heart for the princess." ”
"This ......" Bai Yi stepped forward and knelt in front of the queen.
The queen put the phoenix hairpin on her head, and she suddenly became extravagant. "It's beautiful, it's like she was back then."
"Reward from Queen Iisha." Bai Yi came down and thanked him.
"Okay, well, I'm relieved to wear it on your head. You've loved me since I was a child, and when you're older, you're still like that. Like a real granddaughter. The Queen smiled kindly. If you're sleepy, I'll go shopping by herself! Here you are also familiar. ”
"Okay, send off the queen."
As he finished speaking, suddenly, Wen Jiao broke in, ran over from afar, and came to Bai Yi, "Gong, princess~"
"Panic, what kind of system!" The queen stared at Wen Jiao.
Wen Jiao immediately took a breath and knelt down to salute, "The queen is well." ”
"Learn more about etiquette in the future, but what's the matter?" The Queen asked.
"This ......" Wen Jiao couldn't speak, and kept hesitating.
Bai Yi didn't know what she was going to say, and Yulan was also anxious.
"Yes......, this ......" Wen Jiao looked like she was about to die.
The queen only felt irritable, "Swallow and spit out." ”
"The queen is not strange, it's just that the princess hasn't memorized her homework today, and the maid is afraid that the saint will come to ask someone to ask again. So it's rude. Wen Jiao suppressed her emotions.
"Yiyi, you must pay attention to your homework, and don't waste your studies." The queen went back to the house.
Bai Yiliang came out of the queen's harem for a long time. The three of them hurriedly returned to the Xinzhu Palace, in the main hall, and closed the door.
Bai Yi asked, "Say." ”
"Princess, today I heard a servant talking...... said, said that someone contradicted the second princess. The more Wen Jiao spoke, the quieter she became.
"Heh~, so I should clap my hands and applaud! What's the panic? Bai Yi felt that his appetite was so full, but it was just like that.
"Mainly, it's a male waiter who is fighting against it." Wen Jiao said.
Bai Yi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, "Waiter?"
"Hmm."
Magnolia also realized something, "Princess, it's just the gossip of the servants. Besides, Yu Qi is not stupid, how can he contradict the second princess?"
"But Yuqi hasn't come back yet, it's been a day." Bai Yi said.
"Princess, maybe Yu Qi just went somewhere, or maybe he thought he was going to supervise the Internal Affairs Office to put things in order." Wen Jiao guessed, but she didn't necessarily believe it herself.
"Wen Jiao, you take two people to the Internal Affairs Mansion, don't make any movement." Bai Yi's heart is now hanging in the air, and he can't figure out the bottom.
"Yes."
"Yulan, you take the two of you outside to look for it." Bai Yi became weak to speak.
"Yes."
Both of them went out, and there were many people in the courtyard outside, and they went out scattered.
After calming down, Mama came in, "What's going on?" What you do when you take people out, if others know, you know ......"
Bai Yi can't listen to it now, and his heart is like a twine that can't be sorted out. "Mama, it's okay, you go and rest!"
"Princess! You were brought up by me, how could I not know that something was wrong. Mama sat down and took Bai Yi's hand.
"Mama~, I seem to care about someone very much."
"Is it Yuqi?"
"Yes."
"I saw it early on, and it's normal to worry about him." Mama said.
"But, I ......" Bai Yi didn't know how to say, so he blocked his heart.
"Since ancient times, it has been about being the right person, not to dismantle the mandarin ducks, but so that the two of them will be relaxed and will not be tired. Yu Qi, this kid is good, but he is a male waiter of unknown origin, and his identity is too different. Mama said to Bai Yi.
"I know, he said he didn't want a name."
"That kid has to be strong, you can see it." Mama said.
"Either way, it's good that he's by my side. Later, when everything settles down, I will go outside, anywhere. ”
"He'll be fine."
"I hope so."
Bai Yi just waited, waited. The palace is so big, I don't know how to find it, and I can't make a big show, but Bai Yi still has hope.
Mama has been talking to Bai Yi on the side, scattering her, but she thinks of him in every stump she says.
"Mama, I like him, right?"
"You have to know for yourself."
"I feel it, but I always feel a little different." Bai Yi said.
"You are a princess, whether you like it or not, you can stay by your side, because you are Zun. Although I let you endure in the palace, you are the queen no matter what. Mama said.
"Yes." Bai Yi only felt that it could be so easy at this time.
It doesn't matter if he really likes it or not. You can stay with you for as long as you want.
Yu Qi come back quickly, Bai Yi thought, don't embarrass you, you think about Xiao Yezi, whatever. Just stay with me.
Suddenly, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, and Bai Yi's heart also became anxious.
It's Wen Jiao, she said as she gasped. "Princess, no one."
"Can you ask clearly?" Bai Yi didn't believe it.
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs asked, and said that he would come back early." Wen Jiao took a sip of tea and gasped.
"Girl, rest for a while." Mama helped her to sit down.
Bai Yi's heart was even more flustered, and his hands couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Magnolia also returned, and Bai Yi grabbed her hand. "What about people?"
"Princess, no one, but I also asked Xiao Liuzi to bring someone to find it. Where is Wen Jiao? Magnolia asked.
Wen Jiao shook her head. At this time, the room was quiet, and Wen Jiao looked at Bai Yi and felt uncomfortable. Magnolia is not a taste either.
Bai Yi was thinking wildly in his mind at this time, afraid that something would happen. "Wen Jiao, bring your maid and ask."
"Princess, no, if that's the case, you can't contain the fire. If it is taken by someone with a heart, it will be a big article. Yu Qi is a male waiter, and a princess is looking for a male waiter. This ......," Wen Jiao immediately persuaded.
"I'll let me go." Bai Yi didn't know why, he suddenly started to fight.
As a result, Yulan and Mama knelt down, "Princess, this matter has to be discussed in the long run, Wen Jiao is right." ”
"Yu Qi must be brought back, if something happens, at most I will be punished, but if I don't look for it, he will die." Bai Yi said. At this time, she was iron-hearted.
"Confused, you finally got a reward and a title. If you have a handle at this point, you're done! Mama was also determined to stop it at this time.
"Yes, princess, wait a little longer." Magnolia said.
"Can't wait! If it's ......" Bai Yi began to speculate again.
