After that night, Yin Meng left King Xuan's Mansion and disappeared. She didn't take any gold, silver and jewelry, she was alone, just like when she followed Li Xuan here from outside the Saiwai, I couldn't help but sigh, if it weren't for Li Xuan's attachment, I was afraid that the person who left would be replaced by me.

Desolate, he still can't match Li Xuan's indifference, I heard him say last night that he would take care of her, but she wants to leave, won't he keep her? She is a weak woman who is helpless, and she loses Li Xuan's protection, how can she live?

Steward Li took care of the affairs of the house, and he had always acted strictly, and no one in the palace was talking about it, but Xiao Ye heard the gossip from somewhere, and as soon as he came back, he was extremely energetic, and he pulled a few good maids from Chulan to gather in my house, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

Xiao Ye talked about this, her eyebrows fluttered, her voice was colorful, and her kung fu was the same as that of the storyteller in the teahouse restaurant, and she was willing to stop when she was dry, Chu Lanyang smiled and handed her tea, she grabbed it and drank it, which made the other people in the room laugh again and again.

Xiao Ye put down the porcelain cup and said proudly: "I want the slave to say that the prince is sincere to the princess, Mrs. Xiang is favored again, and it is not right to bully the princess for some reason, how can the sand be tolerated in the eyes of the prince, Mrs. Xiang is lifting a stone and hitting her own feet." ”

It seems that Mrs. Xiang's slap on Xiao Ye's grievances before, this girl remembers it firmly, she can't help but gloat too much, but seeing that she left her previous grievances behind, I didn't say anything, let her go.

Thinking of Mrs. Xiang's sad appearance last night, I was so excited that I didn't have the heart to listen to a few more maids, so I gave Aunt Yun a look, Aunt Yun knew me best, and sent a group of maids away with an excuse, and the room finally returned to quiet, and I finally couldn't hold back my sigh, which was much better.

Aunt Yun was as careful as a hair, and guessed why I was lost, she asked, "Is the princess thinking that it is not worth it for Mrs. Xiang?" ”

I didn't know how to answer, so I just said perfunctorily: "What does it matter to me that she leaves?" “

Aunt Yun smiled kindly, she didn't say anything about her youngest daughter's thoughts, but instead talked about Li Xuan's goodness: "The prince is a dragon and a phoenix, with outstanding natural qualities, and he is in power, and he is important to Emperor Qi, and ordinary women may be difficult to stand side by side with him, so they naturally have to suffer some grievances." “

"Besides, in the eyes of the prince, only one scoop of three thousand weak water is taken, and he loves the princess alone, Mrs. Xiang is self-aware, but retreat is the best way out——"

Aunt Yun is like this, every time I talk about how beautiful Li Xuan is, I don't finish it, I hurriedly interrupted her and didn't let her go down and said: "Aunt Yun, it seems that Li Xuan bought you off and acted as a matchmaker for him." What good did he give you, and you went out of your way? “

I was obviously pretending to be annoyed, but Aunt Yun was still smiling, as if in her eyes I was a girl who didn't grow up, and she wouldn't be at ease without her care.

She said in a soft tone: "Actually, it's good that this Mrs. Xiang is gone, according to the old slave, she is arrogant, not like a woman who can share love with others." This is somewhat similar to the princess. It's just that the princess is more pure-minded, and she can't hide things in her heart—"

Speaking of which, Aunt Yun's tone revealed a few hints of concern. Although her words were for my own good, I didn't listen to a few words, and in my opinion, it was nothing more than a cliché.

Two days later is the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the people and the moon are reunited, the capital will be very lively. Xiao Ye and I went out of the palace separately for the holidays, in addition to giving her my example silver, I also wanted to give her something else, so that her family could rest assured of her life in the palace. I let the maids take all the good things on weekdays, and I will only give away the jewelry I left behind.

I took out the red box of Tun jewelry from the cabinet, and I wanted to pick out a pair of green jade earrings, but I didn't think that my favorite blood jade bracelet was missing, and I immediately froze in place, dumbfounded. There are only a few kinds of jewelry I have hidden, all of which are treasures that I can't put down, and the blood jade bracelet is the most outstanding among them, and I am even reluctant to wear it.

Every face of the ink garden flashed in front of my eyes, I couldn't believe that one of them took advantage of my inattention, I forced myself to calm down, took a deep breath, and rummaged through the cabinet to find several places, but still found nothing.

This blood jade bracelet is the only time Li Xuan left Beijing after marriage to wear for me, he said that the emperor ordered him to go to a far, far place, he must leave me for a while, this blood jade bracelet should be a thing that he can not accompany me to make amends, if I don't like it, let me dispose of it.

I originally wanted to wait for him to take off the bracelet and reward people, but the blood jade bracelet seems to be related to me, and I like it at first sight, it seems to have a kind of magic that attracts people's hearts.

Up to now, Li Xuan's kindness to me has slowly flowed into my heart like flowing water gushing out of a spring, nourishing my tightly wrapped heart inch by inch, maybe I have long hoped for his warmth, so I will care so much about him breaking ties with other women. Love is like a net, entangled me and him, and I can't break free.

The Blood Jade Bracelet is gone, and I'm very disappointed. I searched in my head, but I still didn't think of a suspicious person, if I couldn't even trust the people around me who got along day and night, then how sad was my situation in the palace?

Xiao Ye, Chu Lan, Aunt Yun, or other maids, who will have two hearts for me? I have not been stingy with rewards, nor have I regarded them as slaves and servants, but I have not been able to exchange them with sincerity?

Despite the cold, I still remained silent, pretending that nothing happened, after dinner, I let Xiao Ye stay alone, and gave her the earrings, her bright extension grabbed the earrings at once, and she clearly liked it tightly, the color of this jade is excellent, and it has been with me for a long time, and I know the value of it at a glance with Xiao Ye's eyes.

The girl stared at the earrings for a moment, but still shook her head: "The silver that the princess gave to the slave maid is enough for the slave maid's family to eat for more than half a year, and this earring pendant is too valuable for the slave and maid to collect." ”

Xiao Ye's words made my heart warm, I finally didn't hurt her in vain, I smiled and took her hand and stuffed the earrings to her: "I don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the palace, but your home is not as good as the palace, what don't you spend money?" The silver is useless to me, so I leave it to those who are useful. You have served me for so long, and you deserve it. ”

She was willing to accept it, and she couldn't close her mouth happily, I saw her appearance, and understood that she was not the one who stole the blood jade bracelet, and I was much more relieved, if it was really Xiaoye, then I don't know how sad it would be.

After chatting for a while, Aunt Yun entered the house, her expression stopped talking, I knew that she must have found something, and she didn't hide it from Xiao Ye: "Aunt Yun, it's okay for you to say it directly, who moved the blood jade bracelet?" ”

Hearing me say this, Xiao Ye looked at me suspiciously, and then turned to look at Aunt Yun, as if she couldn't believe it, of course she couldn't imagine that someone would dare to steal in my house, and her knee-jerk reaction also indirectly proved that this matter had nothing to do with her.

Aunt Yun said: "It's Qi'er who lives in Dongyuan." ”

"Qi'er?" I asked rhetorically.

It's not that I don't believe Aunt Yun's words, but Qi'er has always been timid and weak, and it's hard to think that she can do such a thing. She is in charge of sprinkling and sweeping in the ink garden, so it is not surprising that she has a chance to start.
