As soon as the words fell, I saw the ugly child walking from the apse with Tuoba Lin in his hand, the little person, one step at a time, his eyes didn't seem to be fully opened, he opened his mouth slightly and yawned, looking very cute.

His steps are small, and the ugly child is not in a hurry, so he slowly waits for him to walk towards the main hall little by little, Bai Zhi is the first time to observe this child so carefully, such a well-behaved and sensible appearance, it is really distressing.

As soon as he woke up, his expression was still a little lazy, and he wanted to climb up on He Xi's legs with his hands and feet, but found that his little hands couldn't grasp the silky and smooth passion flower dress.

He Xi leaned over to pick him up and put him on his lap, and a smile appeared on his little face.

Bai Zhi approached, teased him for a while, and saw that he was not afraid of life, with a pair of big black and white eyes, he looked at himself with a dripping smile, and said with love and pity in his heart: "The eldest prince is also blessed, and he can be raised by his sister." ”

"It's my blessing to be able to raise Lin'er." He Xi sighed faintly, Bai Zhi didn't argue with her, and played with the eldest prince for a long time, until the night was dark, and then left.

He Xi sent her out, only to feel that the weather was unusually hot, the air was full of thunder, Lin'er shrank into Ruyi's arms with some fear, He Xi looked up at the sky, only to feel that the heavy rain was coming, straightened a little eunuch, with an umbrella, and sent Bai Zhi back to Chuxiu Palace.

When I turned back, I saw the door of the Ice Spring Palace, the green pothos was standing there, staring at this side with gloomy eyes, seeing that He Xi had found himself, he didn't dodge, he closed the vermilion palace door fiercely, and said mockingly: "It's really a raccoon dog, don't fake it in the future, we are not rare!" ”

The look on her face became more and more unkind, He Xi ignored the finger sang and scolded Huai in her words, and said with a smile: "From now on, we will live next to each other, and we will take care of each other in many things, Miss Green Pothos should not be so unreasonable, Ruyi, let's go back." ”

Ruyi seemed to be thinking about something, and there was no reaction for a while, He Xi noticed it, but he just returned to Lingxiu Palace.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he asked the nurse and grandmother to take the eldest prince down, leaving only Ruyi and Chou'er in the hall, He Xi sat on the top and said slowly: "Say, what happened today." ”

Ruyi's face was ashamed and angry, knelt on the ground, and said in a choked voice: "Please let the little master be the master of the slave." ”

He Xi frowned slightly and said, "What happened?" ”

Ruyi said the matter 1510, it turned out that today when she stayed in the Hehuan Hall with Li Zhong to light the sundries, Li Zhong moved his hands and feet, and his words were also mixed with frivolous and obscene meaning, Ruyi did not look at the humiliation, so he warned Li Zhong, but he didn't want Li Zhong to pull Ruyi at the moment, and got closer, Ruyi could even smell the unpleasant smell on his body, and he pinched Ruyi's body with his hand viciously.

even threatened Ruyi: "In this palace, how many palace maids are willing to eat against me, you don't have to know whether you live or die, otherwise, I will do a little tricking, let alone you, even your master, who has just been promoted to wife, will also suffer some hardships." When the time comes, see who will protect you? ”

even stepped forward, buried his head in Ruyi's neck and sniffed deeply, Ruyi was so light by Li Zhong, and no one in the courtyard of the Internal Affairs Office stood up to speak, all of them buried their heads and bowed their heads, doing their own things, and turned a deaf ear to this matter.

As she spoke, Ruyi fell on the ground and cried, she choked up and said, "Little master, that Li Zhong is arrogantly bullying the slave and maid, the slave and maid—"

The ugly child also said indignantly to He Xi: "This Li Zhong really has no one in his eyes, could it be that he is a little head of the internal affairs department, and he can cover the sky with one hand?" ”

Chou'er and Ruyi have been getting along for a long time, and it is inevitable that there will be a trace of love and pity, everyone is a woman, so they naturally empathize.

"Ruyi, today's matter, I have wronged you, don't worry, I will let Li Zhong kneel in front of you and beg you to spare his dog's life." He Xi's eyes are getting colder, Li Zhong, he is really carried away, there is Mama Yu in the front, and there is Ruyi in the back, do you really think that she He Xi is muddy?

The night was dark, and there were many things that could not be seen, and in the mountains behind the imperial garden, Li Zhong stood in front of a pretty woman in palace clothes, the woman had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and held a small oil-paper umbrella in her hand, but the rain was dripping, and a lot of it splashed on the skirt, and the slippery rain, wrapped in a gauze palace skirt, was attached to her legs, and her posture was exquisite and graceful, which was Qiao'er.

Her face was full of impatience, and she looked at Li Zhong and said: "What's the matter, I want to come out at this time and say, everywhere is wet, it's really annoying, if you have something to say, Niangniang is still waiting for me to go back and serve." ”

Li Zhong Yuguang couldn't help but glance at Qiao'er's lap, and what couldn't help but appear in his mind was Ruyi's figure, he smiled flatteringly and leaned towards Qiao'er's side and said, "Small, I want Sister Qiao'er to reward me with someone." ”

The conversation between the two was a little strange, but Qiao'er understood it, and couldn't help but lower her voice and said to Li Zhong: "I said you, didn't you go alone last month?" Why do you want to do it this month? ”

Li Zhong took out a golden hairpin from his sleeve, stuffed it into Qiao'er's hand, and said with a smile: "Isn't that last month's thing, that body is weak, and it won't work in a few times, if Sister Qiao'er can reward me with this this time, I dare to guarantee that it will stop for a few months." ”

Qiao'er shook the golden hairpin in her hand with her hand, it was full of weight, obviously she didn't cut corners, she also had some smiles on her face, she couldn't see it really behind the rain curtain, she glared at Li Zhong with disgust and said: "The person you have taken a fancy to Director Li still uses to beg me, a little palace maid." ”

"Sister Qiao'er serves the queen's mother, except for the concubine in this palace, the queen's mother is the most noble, and my sister is the one who speaks next to the queen's mother, who doesn't look at my sister's horse." Li Zhong's mouth is the sweetest, and the words he says are also very ironing.

"Okay, you have some strength to serve the masters, don't be poor with me here, let's say, who do you like this time?" Qiao'er, the more she looked at the golden hairpin in her hand, the more happy she was in her heart, but she didn't want to hear Li Zhong's name, Qiao'er shook her fingers and dropped the golden hairpin on the ground.

Zanzi, who was still shining brightly, lost her color in the muddy rain at this time, as if she had abandoned her shoes.

Li Zhong hurriedly picked it up, carefully wiping the rain on it with his sleeve, and he heard Qiao'er's almost angry voice say, "Who do you fancy bad?" Do you know who that Ruyi is? ”

Li Zhong smiled disappreciatively: "Who else could it be, isn't it the big palace maid next to Mrs. Xi?" ”

"Now that you know, do you know that now Mrs. Xi is raising the eldest prince and is deeply favored, and you dare to make up your mind about the people around her, I think you have really had enough of a good life." Qiao'er gritted her teeth and said.

Li Zhong seemed to be a little displeased, for so many years, he had given Qiao'er many good things openly and secretly, and now she didn't want to help herself.

But after thinking about the people behind Qiao'er, he forcibly suppressed the anger again, and forced the hairpin into Qiao'er's hand, and the voice was also far away in the rain and couldn't hear the emotion: "Sister Qiao'er will accept it, this matter, there is no hurry, there will always be a time to catch them, it depends on whether the mother can tolerate them, and at that time, I will ask my sister to bother, and I will thank you for the success." ”

Seeing Qiao'er hesitate, Li Zhong leaned closer and added: "There is one more thing, the little one has to say, although the bloodline of this big prince is not noble, but after all, it is also royal blood, and he should still be raised under the knees of the queen's mother." ”

After speaking, he excused himself and bowed down.

Qiao'er was left alone to stand in the rain, looking at the golden hairpin in her hand, her eyes full of struggle.

When I returned to Weiyang Palace, someone saw Qiao'er coming back with an umbrella, and hurriedly greeted her, took the umbrella in Qiao'er's hand, and said softly: "Sister Qiao'er, you are finally back, the queen mother has asked you several times, saying that you will go to see her when you go back." ”

Qiao'er didn't have time to change her dress, so she went straight to Lan Ruo's bedroom, in the dormitory, Lan Ruo was supporting herself with one hand, slightly closing her beautiful eyes, resting, Qiao'er lightly changed into a soothing incense in the incense burner with a half-human high red golden lotus pattern, and then walked to Lan Ruo's side.

The familiar fragrance slowly spread in the palace, Lan Ruo opened her eyes faintly, and said lightly: "It's so late, it's raining again, where did you go?" ”

Qiao'er cautiously knelt in front of Lan Ruo and whispered, "The slave went to see Gonggong Li, the head of the Internal Affairs Office. ”

"Li Zhong?" Lan Ruo was a little suspicious, and then turned around on Qiao'er's face and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Qiao'er's hand in the sleeve couldn't help but tighten, only to feel that the hairpin was heavy as if it was about to fall out of her clothes, she could only hold it tightly, lowered her head and said: "It's just because Li Zhong helped Mrs. Xi move the palace today and came to deliver some irrelevant news to the slave maid." ”

"It's already Mrs. Xi, and if you go up, you're going to be promoted to a concubine, it seems that the palace really underestimated her." Lan Ruo only felt pain in the corners of his forehead.

Qiao'er also agreed: "But isn't it, now the eldest prince is also raised in her palace, Concubine Hui-"

"Don't mention that idiot to this palace, don't give anything to you, and have a virtue with her mother!" Lan Ruo was annoyed in her heart, and there was inevitably some meanness between her words, Qiao'er saw that Lan Ruo had shifted her attention, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and her expression became much more natural, she said: "Niangniang, do you really tolerate Mrs. Xi like this, step by step?" ”

"She is in this position now, as long as she takes one step further, there will naturally be someone targeting her, and this palace only needs to gently push them behind their backs-" The master and servant looked at each other and smiled.
