Lingxi's illness recurred, and by the time he was cured, it was the end of November.

On this day, Lingxi's spirit was much better than in the past, and he was supported by lotus leaves to the low kang in the inner hall, and outside the window was the first snow in the four years of Yong'an.

Lingxi wore a small jacket embroidered with plum blossoms in aqua green, and tied a Luo skirt embroidered with red petals on the lower body. The lotus leaf was afraid that Lingxi would be cold, so she took a dark purple fox fur-edged cloak for Lingxi and draped it on Lingxi's shoulders. Because he was in his own temple, Lingxi did not tie his bun, and his waist-like hair was simply tied together with a ribbon, hanging down on his chest at will, and he didn't even wear a beaded flower.

Lotus Ye took the tea cup handed by Qiaozhu and put it on the low table in Lingxi's hand, and put a hand stove with carrot charcoal in a thin wrap with a stove sleeve and put it in Lingxi's hand.

Qiaozhu stepped forward and looked at the complexion of the two rhinos, and said to the lotus leaf, "The beauty has been much better these days." ”

Lotus Ye also nodded, "No, now my face is a little ruddy." ”

Hearing the conversation between Lotus Leaf and Qiaozhu, Lingxi raised his hand and touched his face lightly, turned around and asked Lotus Leaf and Qiaozhu, "You say, I have been sick these days, are I much whiter than before?" ”

Qiaozhu said with a funny face, "Beauty, that's because you don't go out to bask in the sun, and it is natural to stay in the dormitory all day long." ”

Although Lingxi was still sick and couldn't go to the inner bureau to choose a minion, Concubine Xian led the lotus leaf to do all the things. The original minions in the Yilan Hall only left lotus leaves, Qiaozhu, and Xiaodezi, and the rest of the people were all replaced.

The arrangement of minions in the harem of Dashun is usually handled by the Yeting Palace, and the internal waiting bureau is only responsible for training the minions. Every month, the Internal Waiting Bureau will report the minions who have passed the training to the Yeting Palace, and then the Yeting Palace will distribute them to each palace. This kind of slave randomly assigned by the Tingting Palace is the easiest to be inserted into the eyeliner. The reason why Emperor Yong'an asked Lingxi to go to the internal bureau to choose a slave is also this reason. The palace people in the inner waiting bureau are young, and there are few places to be used, so it is more reassuring to bring them back to the palace.

Lotus Ye and Xiao Dezi are now die-hard people, and they used 120,000 points of effort when choosing slaves. After many inquiries from these two people and asking around, they finally selected two third-class palace maids for Lingxi with smoke and jade; four rough palace maids, Xia Han, Xia Lan, Xia Qing, Xia Tong; Three miscellaneous little eunuchs, Xiao Wuzi, Xiao Renzi, and Xiao Weizi.

The palace people of the Dashun Dynasty from the four beauties are two second-class palace maids and two third-class palace maids. The lotus leaf was selected like this, but it was not a violation of the rules of the palace, but there were four more miscellaneous people in the Yilan Palace. Lingxi is now receiving the Holy Grace, and she was betrayed and framed by a minion, so naturally no one will care much about her in such a matter as a minion.

Concubine Xian saw that the palace maids in the Lingxi Palace, the singular lotus leaf and Qiaozhu, were the oldest, but they were only fifteen or sixteen years old, and those newly selected slaves were only thirteen or fourteen years old, so they chose an experienced grandmother from their Deyang Palace-Shui Mama and sent it. In this way, the minions in the Yilan Hall can be regarded as a big blood change, and there will definitely be no more eyeliner inserted by others.

Lotus Ye listened to Qiaozhu's words, and replied with a smile, "You still know how to speak, if it is a slave maid," Lotus Ye looked at Lingxi and said, "The slave and maid said that the beauty is pale in her illness, and where is it white." It's still red and beautiful, and it's comfortable to look at. ”

Lingxi glanced at the lotus leaf complainingly, put down the slender jade hand and muttered, "In the end, he can't speak, and he doesn't like people." ”

Lotus Leaf and Qiaozhu covered their mouths and chuckled.

Lingxi has no shelf for them on weekdays, and when there is no one, they are less afraid and nine more sincere when they are in front of Lingxi.

Although Qiaozhu has become a second-class palace maid who waits closely for Lingxi, she is not as good as lotus leaves in terms of intimacy. Qiaozhu knew this, so after joking for a while, he casually found a reason to retreat.

The lotus leaf added two spoonfuls of spices to the carved incense burner on the mahogany table, and a warm fragrance with the sweet smell of pears wafted through the entire inner sanctum in an instant.

"Beauty, it's really not worth it for you to get this illness in exchange for these minions, you have been sick for more than a month......" Lotus Ye took a kang pillow and put it behind Lingxi, muttering softly.

Lingxi chuckled, picked up the teacup and took a sip of amber tea. At the entrance of the tea soup, Tieguanyin's unique bitterness immediately spread in the mouth, and when it was swallowed, a sweetness rose in the throat, and the aftertaste was endless.

Lingxi ate half a cup of tea before taking the handkerchief handed by the lotus leaf, and after lightly examining the corner of his lower lip, he said, "I have been sick for more than a month, and it is not worth it in exchange for a clean minion in exchange for a palace." Besides," the smile on the corner of Lingxi's mouth became brighter, "A little fan of Huanxiang coupled with the ventilation of Lotus Rong and Xiao Ningzi brought down the high-ranking concubine, didn't I make a fortune?" ”

The corners of Lotus Ye's mouth also showed a hint of a smile, and she also earned the title of Emperor Yong'an's first-class palace maid. The first-class palace maid in the palace has always been arranged by the eunuch in charge of the palace or promoted by the concubines themselves, and she, the first-class palace maid personally appointed by the emperor, can be regarded as rare.

"That Xiao Ningzi is also hiding deeply, if it weren't for Xiao Shengzi's greed for a cup that day, he wouldn't be able to pull him out." Lotus Ye said, "If Xiao Shengzi is really on duty outside at night as before, I am afraid that Lotus Rong will not dare to deliver the news." ”

Lingxi smiled, a pair of watery eyes shining, "You really don't know anything about Xiao Dezi?" If it weren't for Xiao Dezi, he would have found out Xiao Ningzi's tone a long time ago, how could he pretend to be drunk after Xiao Shengzi was drunk, and he specially pointed out that Xiao Ningzi was on duty in front of the palace at night......"

Lotus Ye sighed, with a stunned face, "It turns out that the beauty and Xiao Dezi have thought it through in advance, and the slave maid has always thought that Xiao Dezi is sullen and can't figure out anything, it seems that the slave and maid are the stupidest......"

Although the words spoken by the lotus leaf were sour, the tone was very happy. She and Xiao Dezi crawled out of the pile of dead people together and were sold into the palace together, so naturally there will be no mustard in their hearts.

"You!" Lingxi nodded the forehead of the lotus leaf, "You're not bad, I thought you didn't dare to attack the lotus seed." ”

Lotus Ye's face was a little pale when he mentioned this, and after biting his lip, he said, "The slave was really scared at the time, and I wanted to restrain her according to the beauty's wishes, but I didn't expect her to take a candlestick to stab the slave." If it weren't for the fact that the slave maid does a lot of rough work on weekdays, and her strength is greater than her, I am afraid that the slave and maid who are lying in a pool of blood will be the slave maid......"

Lingxi pulled the cold little hand of the lotus leaf in the palm of his hand, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, she is dead, you are still alive, and you are much more beautiful than she used to be." ”

Lotus Ye nodded, and her face slowly regained its blood color.

This is the case in the harem, if you don't want to die, you have to climb up on someone else's corpse. The higher you climb, the more corpses will be under your feet, and finally, you will be cold.

The master and servant changed the theme, chatted about something else at random, and after a while, they saw Xiao Dezi walk in from outside.

Xiao Dezi's face was red from the cold, and there were a few small snowflakes on his eyebrows, which were roasted by the charcoal basin in the inner sanctum, and even dissolved into small droplets.

Xiao Dezi walked up to Lingxi and gave Lingxi a blessing, and said, "Beauty, the Tianxin in the palace of the concubine is here." ”

As soon as Xiao Dezi's words were finished, Lotus Ye said, "Xiao Dezi, you lean back, with a cool air on your body, don't freeze the beauty." ”

Lingxi wanted to ask Tianxin what he was doing here, but he was amused by Lotus Ye's words, "Where am I so delicate?" ”

Xiao Dezi really took two steps back, and said embarrassedly, "It's the slave who is wrong, the slave just came in from the outside, and his body is cold." ”

"The beauty is just right, so you must be careful to protect it." Lotus Ye chattered, "It's already the twenty-ninth of the winter moon now, and it's the end of the year, and the beauty can't miss this year's Hegong family banquet." ”

Lingxi hurriedly smiled, "Yes, yes, I listen to Mama Lotus Ye." He turned around and asked Xiao Dezi again, "What is the matter with Tianxin?" ”

Xiao Dezi replied, "Tianxin said that the third prince has a fever these days, and the concubine Niangniang can't have time to see the beauty, so she asked her to come over to see how the beauty's body is, but it's all right." ”

When Lingxi heard that the third prince was sick, he was a little anxious, and hurriedly said, "Don't let Tianxin wait outside, let her come in." ”

Xu Yu Tianxin was brought in from outside by Xiao Dezi.

Tianxin is the second-class palace maid beside Xian Concubine, so after giving the Lingxi a salute, she gave a salute to the first-class palace maid lotus leaf that the emperor personally sealed. Lotus Leaf is not used to being saluted, and Tianxin is still by the side of the concubine Niangniang, who is very good at Lingxi, so he hurriedly returned the salute and helped Tianxin up.

Tianxin's words are also those few sentences, that is, it is good to ask Lingxi with the words of the concubine. Lingxi went back one by one and asked about the concubines and the three princes, and after making sure that the illness of the three princes was not serious, he asked Xiao Dezi to send Tianxin out.

After Xiao Dezi came back, Qiaozhu came in with a bird's nest and placed it on the mahogany carved low table next to Lingxi.

Xiao Dezi stood aside and said cautiously, "Beauty, yesterday a Xiaolin came to find a minion." ”

As soon as Qiaozhu heard Xiao Dezi's words, he wanted to retreat after being blessed. Lingxi smiled and Qiaozhu stopped, "Qiaozhu, just stay here." After a while, you will come in and collect it after I have eaten, and you will let out all the heat in the inner sanctum as soon as you go in and out. ”

The bottom lotus leaf of Qiaozhu has been figured out, and it is also a master who is not waiting to be seen by the master. Lotus Leaf and Xiao Dezi are not treated because they are stupid and can't speak, and Qiaozhu is not treated because they have a bit of a posture. Yeting Palace had successively assigned Qiaozhu to two or three palaces as rough maidservants, but at that time, Lingxi canonized the beauty, and Feiduo beside Queen Zhu was sealed Baolin by Emperor Yong'an, so the eunuchs in charge of any hall did not dare to keep this kind of palace maid with outstanding appearance.

When Qiaozhu arrived at the Yilan Palace, he was grounded just in time for the spirit rhino, and the spirit rhino didn't care about this kind of thing and stayed.

Qiaozhu knew that this was Lingxi believing her, and her heart was moved in every way, and she stood in the corner behind the lotus leaf after a blessing.
