Chapter Seventy-One: Pampered a palace maid
The snow is falling tightly, and Chinese New Year's Eve is the beginning of the new year, and the city is full of fireworks like day.
Break the silence of a snowy night.
The sound of fireworks could be heard in the side hall of Zichen Palace, and Ah Rong woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep for a long time.
Seeing that the person beside her was still beside her, she changed her posture and turned her back to Zhong Lixun angrily, forcing herself to fall asleep quickly.
In the darkness, a pair of narrow eyes opened, and the eyes were filled with a deep black color.
The palace maid and eunuch walked along the snow through the palace road to the residence of the palace maid in the side hall, and the sound of pushing the door open woke up the two people in the hall.
I don't know when I fell asleep late at night, and last night she had an extremely uncomfortable spring dream.
I woke up groggily, turned my head and saw a handsome and evil face!
Not a dream!
Ah Rong's heart trembled, and when she raised her eyes again, Zhong Lixun had slowly opened her eyes, and a group of people came over at the entrance of the hall, and she hurriedly covered herself tightly with the corners of the quilt.
Now he panicked, he did that to her when he was drunk last night, why did he stay overnight after that! Now that the palace maids have come in, the people in the palace will definitely spread the news, he must have done it on purpose! In the past, he pretended to pamper her in front of his concubine and made her a thorn in her side!
Thinking of this, Ah Rong's heart was flustered, full of anger and hatred, she couldn't wait to kick this merry man out of bed now!
After thinking about it, the futon was pulled for a while, and seeing that Zhong Lixun was about to get out of bed, Ah Rong breathed a sigh of relief.
The king got up in his clothes, and the palace maids came in with a few pots of charcoal, and Sister Qiushui instructed that the side hall was not warmer than the main hall, so as not to freeze the king.
The palace maids serving in Zichen Hall were jealous of which luck was so good to climb into the king's bed, and it was the first time that the king was fortunate to be a palace maid at the palace maid's place, and it was still on such an old day, but when they saw a woman's figure on the couch, they didn't dare to come out, for fear of provoking the king's blame, so they only approached and peeked.
Zhong Lixun's voice did not wave: "Wake her up and change her clothes for Lonely." ”
The palace maids had long wanted to see the appearance of the woman on the bed, and several people hurriedly walked over, but when they saw Ah Rong's face the next moment, they were all stunned: "Ah Rong ......"
There are not a few people in the hall who have seen Ah Rong, not to mention that Ah Rong is appearance is too good, and she is the only one in the palace with the fox tattoo between her eyebrows, and the palace maids are all pale, and they are actually the most unlikable Ah Rong who is the king's favorite!?
Everyone's eyes flashed with jealousy, they were jealous of Ah Rong's beauty, and they were also angry that the king had favored a person who was not treated by them.
Ah Rong, who was punished by the king in the past, was actually favored by the king overnight, what a means! …… The original disgust and hostility towards Ah Rong turned into jealousy.
Although one person reacted with a look of annoyance, but the king was not good at this, so he said in a low voice: "Ah Rong girl, the king asked you to change your clothes." ”
Ah Rong didn't hear Zhong Lixun's instructions to the maid just now, and looked at Zhong Lixun who was facing away from her with his back to her with hazy sleepy eyes, thinking that Zhong Lixun would change his clothes and leave coldly.
But when she heard this command, she was excited, and Zhong Lixun asked her to change her clothes!?
Ah Rong's first reaction was to refuse, but she knew that if she refused, Zhong Lixun was afraid that she would get angry again, and maybe she would be given dozens of boards.
Ah Rong smiled bitterly, she put on the messy dress she wore last night, Miaolan didn't know what medicine she applied to her last night, and the wound on her body was not so painful.
But...... The moment I lifted my feet and walked out of bed, there was a tearing pain in my lower body.
Like a knife cutting through the flesh, the knife edge was torn to both sides, and the pain made her want to cry.
There were no other palace maids to help her, and Ah Rong knew that they all hated her, so he didn't care.
Endure the pain and secretly grit her teeth and walk towards the cold-blooded person who brought her great pain.
Last night's confusion made Ah Rong's head still in chaos, and Zhong Lixun in front of him was slender and tall, and she struggled to dress him on tiptoe.
I served him once to change clothes, and I was forced by his orders! A thankless errand!
The slender jade hand wrapped around the fingers, and the fingertips touched the warm chest, Ah Rong's hand trembled, and his heart trembled.
There was a warm scent of him in his jet-black hair, and she was so close to him that she could catch a glimpse of his thin, shaved lips, slender neck, and slightly protruding Adam's apple...... The haunting scene at night was like a flood that opened the door of her heart, and her heart was beating, and she ...... Sichun?
Ah Rong immediately shook himself awake from this strange thought.
The palace maids of the Zichen Hall were shocked to see that the king looked down at Ah Rong's somewhat red cheeks, and his narrow eyes clearly contained a look of urgency, but they still quietly called them to come over and serve: "Let her watch from the sidelines, she won't do such a trivial matter, you come over and then change clothes and tie up your hair for Gu."
The palace ladies speculated about the king's will, and the king seemed to be a little happy? This Ah Rong is so useless, the king actually pampered her!
Secretly glaring at Ah Rong, several people respectfully walked to change clothes for the king: "Slaves and maids obey the order." ”
Several palace maids skillfully took off the underwear they wore yesterday for Zhong Lixun and put on a new robe, which was still black, but today was a good day, and the palace maids cleverly picked a piece with a red plum hook, and it happened that the king also liked red plums.
Zhong Lixun glanced at Ah Rong who was hanging on one side like a wooden stake, and actually felt that it was very interesting to tease her, which was very different from the feeling of those concubines in the harem.
Also, when he saw a trace of blood on the couch after last night, he knew that Ah Rong had not lost his body, and he was inexplicably happy in his heart.
So much so that she forgot to go back to the main hall for a while, and slept with her until dawn, and the palace maid came to the side hall to wait for her to get up.
He glanced at the embroidered red plum on the corner of his robe, and was in a good mood: "The service is good, and you will be rewarded." ”
Several palace maids hurriedly knelt down happily and thanked them: "Slaves and maids thank the king for the reward!" ”
As soon as he finished kneeling, he heard the king continue: "Lone went directly to Jinghe Hall to greet the concubine, and you also went with you." ”
This "you" naturally does not refer to the palace maids just now, it is Ah Rong.
The master gave her to accompany her, although Ah Rong was still unhappy, but there was no room to refuse, she gritted her teeth and said, "Yes." ”
The twenty-first day of the first lunar month, the happy day of the New Year. Both the royal family and the people of Southern Chu have always valued filial piety and the elderly, and the king went to Jinghe Hall to greet Concubine Ming.
Last night, I don't know which fast-talking palace maids and eunuchs spread the news of pampering Ah Rong in the harem early in the morning, and the king had no intention of concealing it, I heard that the palace maid was also taken to Jinghe Palace, and the concubines were even more eager to rush to the concubine to see what was going on.
Besides, the events of last night had also reached the ears of the concubine, and they wanted to see how this little sin ended.
"Lonely to Concubine Ming, please say goodbye." After Zhong Li Xun greeted him, he sat next to the concubine.
"The king has a heart." Concubine Ming smiled with relief and had a heart-to-heart conversation with Wang Shang.
Later, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional to suddenly turn to a person, Concubine Ming said to Zhong Lixun with a faint expression: "Your Majesty, I know your temperament, but now you can't mess up the discipline on the throne, I heard that you favored a palace maid yesterday, is there such a thing?"
