Chapter 35 Chang Gonggong
The princess in the bronze mirror was pale, and her expression was indifferent. Knowing that the princess has a bad temper, the maid is careful and careful.
But Ling Zhao still felt like he was in pain, and the maid was so frightened that the comb in her hand almost fell to the ground, and she quickly knelt down beside Ling Zhao and kowtowed: "The princess forgives the sins, the princess forgives the sins......"
Ling Zhao stood up and picked up the comb on the ground, and glanced back at Ah Man, who was standing next to him. Ah Man immediately understood, turned around and went to close the door.
……
Xiao Huaijin never thought that someone in the South Courtyard would commit suicide because he couldn't help but be depressed, and when he found out, it was already bright sky.
The reason for this maid's suicide makes people feel strange, so they can only ask Liang Cuo to order him to go down and tell the people in the house to shut up.
Ling Zhao was finally released and saw Xiao Huaijin. Her weak and unpowdered appearance is a little pale, so that people can't help but feel pity when they see it.
"The concubine has seen the prince."
Xiao Huaijin couldn't pity her at all, but it was the incense that poured medicine into others to make her like this, and she spoke politely: "A person died in the Southern Courtyard?" ”
"Yes, the maid was messed up in the morning."
"What do you have to say?"
"The concubine has nothing to say, everything is dragged down by the concubine."
"You?"
"It was the concubine who planted the girl with the incense and failed to succeed, so she was grounded. The little girl is lively and likes to be lively, and she can't stand the coldness of the South Courtyard before committing suicide. ”
"Really?"
A Man on the side said with a sullen head: "That maid saw that the princess was not powerful, and she spoke wildly several times without any restraint, and she threw some dishes for the princess at every turn, and she didn't even serve the medicine well."
Yesterday, I heard that listening to the excitement of the rain platform, many people took the fat powder of the girl with a fragrance, and she also wanted to go, but she couldn't get out of the door of the south courtyard...... He said that our yard is not like a human life. Who knew that the temper was so big......"
Xiao Huaijin put down the teacup in his hand heavily, and Ah Man knew that he had provoked Xiao Huaijin by interjecting, so he honestly stood behind Ling Zhao.
As he was talking, a house slave ran over: "Lord, someone has come to the palace." ”
"Who?"
"Father-in-law Chang beside the Empress Dowager."
Hearing that it was the Empress Dowager's side, Xiao Huaijin glanced at Ling Zhao: "It seems that some people are worried about the princess." ”
"The prince should hurry over, don't tell the queen mother to wait."
So Xiao Huaijin threw Ling Zhao alone in the east courtyard and went to the front to meet this father-in-law. The eunuch sat in the front hall and drank tea, and after two sips, he vomited out in disgust.
When he turned his head, he saw Xiao Huaijin coming, and unhurriedly put down the teacup and approached Xiao Huaijin: "The old slave has seen King Pingnan." ”
"Father-in-law Chang."
"Princess Pingnan has not entered the palace for a long time to ask for peace, and the Queen Mother is worried about it, so she sent the old slave to ask."
Sure enough, it was because Ling Zhao came, and he didn't enter the palace for half a month, so the palace sent someone to ask.
Originally, Xiao Huaijin still wanted to let Ling Zhao go out, but seeing the Empress Dowager like this, Xiao Huaijin really couldn't let her take half a step out of Pingnan Palace.
Thinking of this, I was born back to my father-in-law: "Thank you for your mother's postscript, a few days ago, Lingzhao contracted a bad disease, and it was not good to enter the palace to ask the queen mother." When Lingzhao recovers, the son will take her into the palace to ask for her guilt. ”
"What kind of ill disease is this? Why don't you ask the imperial doctor in the palace to come and have a look? ”
"Father-in-law Chang, how is the queen mother doing recently?" Xiao Huaijin didn't answer his words, took a small box from the hand of the house slave on the side, and quietly stuffed it into Chang Gonggong's hand.
Father-in-law Chang unceremoniously opened it in front of Xiao Huaijin, and when he looked closely, it was a ruyi inlaid with gemstones, and he smiled at that time.
is already old, his face is full of wrinkles, but this father-in-law likes to dress himself up with pink faces and red lips, and when he smiles, he looks like a ghost woman told by a storyteller.
Xiao Huaijin saw him laughing, and he laughed too. I heard his tone soften, and replied to Xiao Huaijin as if he was talking about homely: "The Empress Dowager seems to be idle, but she refuses to rest in her heart, and she always remembers a few princes and princesses."
If you think about it one by one, you are prone to have a head wind. Fortunately, the emperor is filial, and the empress dowager is deeply blessed, so it must be fine in a few days. ”
"Over there, the father-in-law brought a message to the queen mother, and the son entered the palace a few days later to greet the queen mother."
"The old slave must be brought to the king of Pingnan, but the prince must remember that the emperor respects southern Xinjiang, and the princess of Pingnan has a special identity, and the prince must take care of it. And ......"
The old eunuch lowered his voice: "This gadget was picked up by someone outside the palace gate, and the prince himself will take a good look at it later." ”
Xiao Huaijin result box: "Father-in-law Xie." ”
"Alright, nothing else. The Empress Dowager waited for the old slave to reply, and then retired. ”
Seeing that the people were gone, the remaining half of the tea that the old eunuch drank on the table was still warm. Xiao Huaijin pursed her lips tightly, thinking back to what Chang Gonggong said just now, like a threat from the Empress Dowager.
When the father-in-law's figure was completely gone, Xiao Huaijin let go of his fingers and stayed in the front yard for a while.
It just so happened that Liang Cuo would come back, bumped into Chang Gonggong's car, and retreated to the side to make way for Chang Gonggong. I thought something had happened to the palace, so I hurriedly ran towards the courtyard.
As soon as I entered, I saw Xiao Huaijin with an expressionless face: "Lord Wang." ”
"A person died in the South Courtyard this morning, you go and clean up, and send someone to comfort his family."
"Yes."
"Except for the front gate and the back door, the rest of the side doors even have dog holes to be blocked."
"Yes."
After replying, Liang Cuo hurriedly worked on the things that Xiao Huaijin explained, Xiao Huaijin took refuge in the garden by himself, looked at the flowers that bloomed in summer, and remembered what Wanxiang said for no reason, 'There is a large piece of purple and red, and I feel upset when I look at it'.
This flower is really noisy, and I feel upset when I look at it, so I call Shangliang to go to the courtyard of Wanxiang to have a look.
As a result, as soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a couch under the wooden tree in the courtyard, and Wanxiang was lying on it, facing the sun and looking at the maids in front of her.
The maids all held makeup powder and rouge, pulling the old water sleeves back and forth, and smiling as if they had flowers on their faces.
Xiao Huaijin tilted her head and looked at Wanxiang with empty eyes, and saw her red little mouth biting the apricot fiercely.
Liang Cuo whispered: "Lord Wang, it seems that there are still a few maids from our East Courtyard." ”
“……”
Look at the small objects full of a large box next to Wanxiang, leaning on the soft pillow and holding his chin: "You guys, you usually always hang your head and cry with your chest on your face, isn't the prince upset when you see it?"
In the future, when the weather is good, come to my yard, and I will tell you to take care of it. Well done, what I have is something to give to you. ”
I saw that Wanxiang casually took a hairpin and threw it to a little girl. Xiao Huaijin immediately remembered what Ling Zhao's personal maid said: Listen to the excitement of the rain platform.
Seeing Xiao Huaijin take a deep breath and look like he was about to get angry, Liang Cuo shouted in a low voice: "Lord Wang...... Or ...... Get back? ”
Xiao Huaijin didn't listen to Liang's words, and simply walked into the courtyard. Seeing Xiao Huaijin, those maids immediately put away their smiling faces, and looked like they were hanging their heads and chests, and stood honestly in the corner of the courtyard.
Wanxiang stood up slowly: "I've seen the prince." ”
"What? Tossed the yard into a Tibetan incense pavilion? ”
"The subordinates suddenly found that the maids who were marked by the house were not young and old, so they all searched for them. After the training is done, send it to the prince together, and the prince will choose some good ones for himself to keep. ”
"Believe it or not, the king will also ground you?"
"If the prince wants to, he can tie his subordinates with iron chains, and life will be just as boring anyway."
Seeing Xiao Huaijin's eyes widen, he gritted his teeth and left a sentence for Wanxiang: "Unreasonable!" ”
He seemed to be angry, pointing at Wanxiang for a while and couldn't say anything, just about to turn around and leave, Wanxiang in front of him muttered quietly: "Is the prince thinking that the princess is still in the East Courtyard, and is he in a hurry to go back to say hello?" ”
The corners of Xiao Huaijin's mouth moved, and he wanted to laugh but couldn't help laughing: "Your yard, sour." ”
"Knowing that the prince was suspicious, his subordinates had already sneaked into the South Courtyard to see it. How do you know that the prince doesn't have time to pay attention to his subordinates. ”
She said this as if she had been wronged, raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Huaijin pitifully, looking at her eyes, Xiao Huaijin actually felt that there was nowhere to escape under the cangmin.
"And what do you see?"
Speaking of this, the incense waved her hand, and Qi'er hurriedly told these people to disperse, turned around and walked towards the house. Xiao Huaijin followed behind Wanxiang, waving his hand and telling Liang Cuo to wait outside.
