Chapter 13 Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals

His dark and quiet eyes gradually turned red with his words, and his long eyelashes trembled, as if they would shed tears at any moment.

Meng Xilan suddenly felt so regretful.

In her previous life, why did she choose the wrong person, if she had obeyed God's will from the beginning and chose Chu Jingchuan, maybe there would not have been so many tragedies.

Chu Jingchuan didn't know where he got the courage to confess, but he knew that she was uneasy, and similarly, his heart was uncomfortable.

Meng Xilan gathered her mind, now is not the time for children to be in love, although she knows Chu Jingchuan's intentions, but now, she can't give him an answer, she only smiled slightly: "Brother go back to Long Live Lord first, don't stay outside for a long time, catch a cold carefully." ”

Chu Jingchuan's heart warmed when he heard this, and he responded: "I'll come to see you again when I'm free." ”

Meng Xilan shook her head: "There are many rules in the palace...... When I go home to visit my family, you and Jingwen will come together. ”

Chu Jingchuan smiled slightly, looking satisfied and handsome.

She looked at his back and was distracted, until Zhulu beside her reminded embarrassedly, "Miss, let's go back." ”

Meng Xilan was about to turn around, but she heard a voice call her from behind: "Girl, please wait." ”

Following the prestige, a little eunuch hurriedly ran over and knelt down and said, "The slave has kowtowed to the girl." ”

It was him, the little eunuch who had just been buried in the snow.

"Slave thank you for saving your life." He kowtowed again as he spoke.

Meng Xilan smiled slightly: "You don't have to thank me, it's your luck that you met Long Live Lord." ”

The little eunuch raised his head, his thin face was a little childish, and he was a little stunned.

"Just now, the girl is willing to stand up and speak for the slave, which means that she has a life-saving grace for the slave. Xiao Lizi has nothing to repay, only to give this cheap life to the girl, what does the girl have in the future, the slave will definitely go to the soup and fire, and he will not give ......up."

Seeing that he is not very old, he is a person who understands Entu.

Meng Xilan smiled: "Listening to your words, it seems that I want you to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire." What is your name? ”

"Slaves have high welfare, because they have good brains and remember every avenue and path in the palace, so everyone calls them "Xiaolizi" ......"

Little Lizi, this name is quite funny.

However, Meng Xilan cares more about whether his memory is really that good?

"Do you really remember every road?"

Xiao Lizi nodded seriously: "Yes, the slave didn't lie, the slave has a good memory since he was a child." ”

Meng Xilan was still a little skeptical: "Seeing that you are not very old, how can you be so familiar with the things in the palace?" ”

Xiao Lizi scratched her head embarrassedly, and suddenly stammered: "Don't hide it from the girl...... When the slave first entered the palace, he was assigned to the miscellaneous servant office, and he was ...... every day I want to go to all the palaces to collect night incense barrels...... Therefore, the minions have almost walked all over the palace......"

Meng Xilan frowned slightly, but soon, she realized that this little lizi might be of great use to herself.

"Where are you on an errand now?" Meng Xilan asked again.

When Xiao Lizi heard this, he seemed to realize something, and hurriedly replied: "The slave is now working in the flower room, and he is responsible for sending flowers and bonsai to the palaces every day. The slave wants to get ahead, and asks the girl to give the slave a chance......"

Meng Xilan thought thoughtfully, then asked, "Do you want to follow me?" ”

"Yes! As long as the girl is not a slave and humble. The life of the minion, this head is the girl's. ”

When Meng Xilan heard this, she couldn't help but laugh again: "Don't, I don't have the right to be the master, you still need to take good care of your own head." ”

Xiao Lizi laughed twice, "Hehe, the slave is stupid and can't speak." ”

Meng Xilan thought about it and got straight to the point: "I'm just a commoner, I enter the palace to read with me, and I can't be regarded as a serious master." If you want to get ahead, you should climb higher branches. ”

When Xiao Lizi heard this, his expression suddenly became solemn: "Girl Bodhisattva heart, willing to speak for us slaves, a benevolent master like you is the best master in this world." ”

Meng Xilan pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, thinking, where is he stupid, he is very good at sycophants.

There has always been a lack of a little eunuch by her side, and he is familiar with the palace, so it's good to stay. But in this matter, I have to ask Princess Jianing to help me.

"Get up, if you really follow me, I can think of a way."

"Miss Xie, no, thank you, master!" Little Lizi got up with a thousand thanks.

Seeing his happy appearance, Meng Xilan instructed again: "Go back and find some ginger soup to drink, don't get sick from freezing." You do your errand first, and when you have the news later, you will naturally know. ”

Xiao Lizi should be again and again. I thought to myself, I can't count myself as a blessing in disguise.

Seeing him walk away, Zhulu asked in a low voice, "Miss, I think that little Lizi is a little stunned." ”

Meng Xilan's tone was light: "If I want to survive in this palace, I can't do it without my own people." ”

The people in the palace are divided into gangs and factions, and each is the main one. And she needs someone who is loyal to her, even if it's just a shrimp soldier and crab general.

In about half an hour, the story of Lord Anning being taught by the emperor spread all over the harem.

As soon as this incident came out, some people applauded, some people were worried, and some people were more concerned about Meng Xilan, another "supporting role" in the incident.

I thought that she was just a pampered lady, but I didn't expect that she would have such courage! Everyone was secretly surprised, and they couldn't help but think a little higher about her in their hearts.

At night, Meng Xilan was about to go to bed when she saw Mama Kong suddenly come in and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess has come down." ”

Zhou Youning was wearing a thick cloak, but he was wearing a nightgown inside, and said with a smile: "Today, I want to sleep with my sister." ”

She likes to be around, and she doesn't care about the rules.

Meng Xilan didn't care about saluting, so she quickly lifted the quilt and let her lie in.

The two of them lay side by side, and Mama Kong put down the bed tent for them and went out.

Zhou Youning snuggled up to Meng Xilan's side, and only after half a sound did he speak: "Sister, I am so brave today." ”

Meng Xilan smiled slightly: "Her Royal Highness the princess thinks I'm brave, but I feel as if I'm in trouble." ”

Zhou Youning turned sideways, his big eyes were dark and shining: "Why?" ”

Meng Xilan avoided the important and trivialized: "The county lord is noble, I shouldn't say anything against her." ”

Zhou Youning blinked: "My sister is too worried, obviously she is self-inflicted." This time is good, after her father taught her a lesson, it is estimated that she will have no face to come to the palace to be domineering for a while. And, sister, don't worry, I will protect you. ”

Meng Xilan was happy when she heard this, and she also turned sideways, looked at her and said, "With the princess's words, I can sit back and relax." But ......" Meng Xilan took the opportunity to mention Xiao Lizi: "The little eunuch who was troubled during the day is strange and pitiful." In the future, I am afraid that I will be bullied even more. As the saying goes, help people to the end. Why don't the princess find him an errand and let him come to Cining Palace? ”

Zhou Youning was already a little sleepy, and said "um": "I listen to my sister's ......"

Meng Xilan reached over and tucked the quilt corner for her, then turned over to face the bed, quietly thinking about her own affairs.

Early the next morning, Meng Xilan explained to Mama Kong, saying that she wanted to add more people to her side, and asked Xiaolizi to come over.

Mama Kong knew everything about what happened yesterday, and when she saw that she wanted someone, she nodded and agreed after thinking about it, and didn't ask any more questions.

Meng Xilan felt a little abnormal.

After returning from class in the study, Xiao Lizi had been placed in Cining Palace by Mama Kong.

Xiao Lizi didn't expect it to be so soon, as soon as he saw Meng Xilan, he kowtowed and thanked him, and his head turned red.

Meng Xilan slowly drank the tea in her teacup, made him kneel for a while, and then said: "I have fulfilled you today, do things well in the future, don't be lazy and behave, and brush my face." ”

Xiao Lizi nodded heavily: "The master's kindness to the slave is unforgettable for the slave." ”

Meng Xilan put down the teacup and said in a calm tone: "Your loyalty is the best way to repay your kindness." ”

For this little profit, Meng Xilan is still a little uncertain in her heart.

In the memory of his previous life, there was no such person as him. So, she needs some time to see if he is true to her?
