Twenty-three, the edge of the court
Liang Meiren lives in Fuxi Pavilion, which is a corner of the Chen Palace, and it is not a traditional palace, but there is a half-large lotus pond here, there was a lotus leaf Luo skirt cut in one color, and the artistic conception of the hibiscus opening to both sides of the face.
Pei Zhenwan walked slowly, about two quarters of an hour from Liushang's journey, and then entered through Fanhua Gate, there were fewer people and much quieter.
As she walked, she was thinking about what she needed to arrange in the near future.
Zhang Cairen's birth date is almost ten days later, and when the little prince is born, Wei Guifei will definitely urge the raising; Wan Xiuyun needed to cheer up as soon as possible in order to delay Wei Guifei's eagerness to push her escort, and there were many things she had to arrange; Shen Zhaorong's side, in the rest of the month, it is good to find a way to meet in person; The line of Wu Si ornament buried in agar is almost scheduled to be used.
Thinking so intently, I suddenly heard a few young children crying.
Pei Zhenwan looked at it, and several half-year-old children were surrounding a four or five-year-old child, and the teenagers were throwing a second-class eunuch's robe to each other. The robe was clumped together, and the navy blue was swirling in the hands of several people. The four or five-year-old boy was crying and jumping to get the robe back.
This place is close to the Yeting Palace, and I think these are the little eunuchs who were confiscated in the Yeting. This place has always been a place where confiscated palace people or newly bought palace people live and live.
Pei Zhenwan couldn't help but shake her head, this day's time, the bullying she saw was not small.
The more miserable and lowly people are, the more accustomed they are to each other.
Regardless of the commotion over there, Pei Zhenwan continued to go towards Fuxi Pavilion, there are many unfair things in the world, and she is not a righteous person who draws a sword to help her when she sees injustice.
Liang Meiren knew that Pei Zhenwan was now the person who Wei Guifei used, so she was naturally much more polite, knowing that Pei Zhenwan sent the painting today, and it was passed on to the front, and it was very appropriate to give tea and speak.
In his speech, he was nothing more than praising Concubine Wei, and praised Pei Zhenwan for her proper behavior, and she should be more appreciated in the future, so she naturally inquired about the recent preferences of Penglai Palace, so that she could use it in the future.
If you drank two cups of tea, you let Pei Zhenwan come out, it was already three o'clock in the unitary hour, the sun was setting in the west, and the sky was about to get dark.
Pei Zhenwan was detained for a long time, and was finally released, and she couldn't help but let out a long breath before she felt relaxed. Dealing with interpersonal interactions all day long, smiling and smiling, anyone will be tired.
When they walked back to the vicinity of the courtyard, the troublesome teenagers were long gone, and the eunuch robes that had been in a lump were now hanging on a two-person high branch, and most of their clothes hung diagonally, swaying idly in the spring breeze.
These kids don't have to be heavy, but things are thrown high enough.
The little eunuch, who was four or five years old, had brought a stone from nowhere to put it under his feet, and was climbing on the stone and jumping hard, trying to touch the robe on the tree. Pity him as a child, who has such great strength to move such a stone, and it takes the strength to feed.
A child of four or five years old is not as tall as an adult when he stands on a rock, so where can he get there? He was jumping and crying at the same time.
Pei Zhenwan stopped and looked at it twice, and couldn't help but get closer.
At dusk, it was dinner time for the palace people, and it was a secluded place, and no one else walked around, which made the little eunuch even more lonely and pitiful.
Walking five or six steps away, she could already see the cheeks full of tears and snot, Pei Zhenwan was stunned in her heart, and frowned involuntarily.
This thin little eunuch is so similar to Yi'er's appearance! Her nephew, who lost his parents since he was a child and cried for more than half a year to get better, is the only child left by her brother and sister-in-law.
A trace of softness in my heart was slightly touched, but I still insisted on cold alienation. The blue bricks and tiles of Chen Palace reminded her that this situation and this scene were not the joy of Nanshu.
After a while, the little eunuch had jumped more than a dozen times, the stone was uneven, and he stepped on it several times when he fell, and he could barely stand up after several steps. After crying a few times, the dirty little hands wiped away a few tears, and climbed up the stone to continue to work hard.
The corners of Pei Zhenwan's lips twitched, and she said softly: "You can't touch it." ”
The little eunuch paused for a moment, still crying aggrieved and anxious, looked at her with tears in his eyes, and choked up: "I know." ”
As he spoke, the little eunuch still straightened his toes, stretched his little hands straight up, and continued to jump with all his might.
"Why do you have to get this robe?"
The little eunuch didn't look back this time, and replied vaguely because of the emotions of jumping hard and crying: "Gonggong Lu asked me to wash it for him today, but I can't get it, I will be beaten to death by him." ”
Pei Zhenwan couldn't help scolding in her heart, it was really a shameless thing, looking at the style on the robe, I thought that this father-in-law Lu should be a third-class palace person in the Yeting Palace, no one bullied him, and he actually sent a five-year-old baby to wash clothes.
"Why are those people bullying you?"
"They think I've been sold into the palace."
Pei Zhenwan knew from the bottom of her heart that the Yeting Palace in the Chen Palace had always been a place for low-level palace people to work as hard laborers, and most of the palace people here were punished for doing wrong things in the palace and were confiscated to this point, or the families of the guilty ministers who committed things outside the palace, of course, there were also those little slaves who had no foundation and were sold into the palace.
is also the lowest level of the palace people in the Chen Palace, but there are still layers of low regard and oppression here, and those who are punished in the palace look down on the families of the guilty ministers outside the palace, and those dependents are angry on the helpless slaves.
Pei Zhenwan thought about it, looking at the little eunuch's weak expression, she finally sighed, stepped forward and hugged the little eunuch off the stone, squatted down to wipe away the tears on the child's face, and looked at him level and said: "The branches are so high, children may not be able to climb trees, you can't be on a stone." ”
The little eunuch gently lifted his sleeves and said in a childish voice, "I just climbed, but I couldn't climb up, and I fell." ”
On the thin and thin arm, there were several red bloodshot scratches, mixed with black mud marks, fortunately, the abrasions were only on the flesh, and there was no serious bleeding.
Pei Zhenwan could probably hear the last trace of the cold defensive wall in her heart being shattered, and the face of the boy in front of her was constantly overlapping and switching with Yi'er who was looking for her mother in tears, and a voice was telling herself that people are not completely ruthless after all, help him, help him.
Touching the top of the child's head, Pei Zhenwan asked gently, "What's your name." ”
The child, still wiping away tears, replied, "They all call me Seventeen." ”
Seventeen, what is this name, maybe it is the little eunuch of this age, who was so casually named by numbers, and when he was transferred to other places on an errand one day, he would be named by the master or steward at that time.
Pei Zhenwan stood up and looked around, this time her son had tea time, and there was indeed no one around him, so it didn't hurt to take advantage of the fact that there was no one to take a robe for this little baby.
didn't think that the first time she used force in Chen Palace, it turned out to be to help a little boy, Pei Zhenwan couldn't help laughing at herself in her heart.
The height of the two was not too difficult for her, and with a light breath of breath, a little on tiptoe, she leaped forward, and climbed lightly to the branch, and the robe tugged between the branches, and she carefully untied it, and then fell gently to the ground.
This set of actions, flowing smoothly, shows that the skill is by no means ordinary, the little eunuch called seventeen couldn't help but be dumbfounded, tears and snot hung on his face, but he also looked like a stone statue,
