Xiao Jingzi is Feng Gonggong's most proud apprentice, and it is said that he has been learning to be a slave by Feng Gonggong's side since he was ten years old. Now six years have passed, and Xiaojingzi is already a figure who can afford to put it down. Xiao Jingzi can come to the Luoxue Pavilion, most likely because of Gonggong Feng's meaning.

Lingxi got out of bed, tidied up her makeup slightly, sat down on the bamboo couch in the inner hall, and said to Qiaozhu, "Let him come in." ”

Xiaojingzi came in the rain, and although he held an umbrella, the hem of his clothes was still warmed by the heavy rain.

Walking in front of Lingxi, Xiaojingzi saluted and greeted him, and after Lingxi asked him to get up, she said, "Niangniang, the slave's master sent the slave to take a look." Mother, is it good? ”

Lingxi's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile, "Imperial Physician Wang said that the illness in this palace is fine, but it can't see the wind, and it will take a few days to recover." ”

Xiao Jingzi's eyes turned like a bean, and he said with a smile, "The master said, in the final analysis, it is still the concubine Ying's mother who thinks about the emperor and worries about it every day." The emperor also remembers Concubine Yingniang, even if Niangniang has been weak recently, she can't see ......"

"This palace is not angry," Lingxi covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed lightly, and said to Xiao Jingzi with bright eyes, "You go back and tell your master, just say that this palace understands." ”

Xiao Jingzi smiled and saluted Lingxi again, and then went down with Qiaozhu to receive the reward.

Lingxi sat on the bamboo couch and watched Xiao Jingzi trot out of the Snow Pavilion with an umbrella before retracting his gaze.

Suddenly, she said to the lotus leaf standing in the corner who didn't dare to step forward, "Bring the embroidery, and then take a piece of bright yellow cloth." ”

"Niangniang," Lotus Ye was stunned for a moment, and said lightly, "Niangniang, you are not well yet." ”

"Okay, okay, I don't know, don't I?" Lingxi put the handkerchief in his hand on the table and sighed in his heart.

These days when he was sick, Lingxi never sent a palace maid to the Zichen Palace to deliver food, nor did he let people go to the Zichen Palace to inquire about the emperor's news.

For a long time, even if Gonggong Feng mentioned himself in Emperor Yong'an's ear, he was afraid that Emperor Yong'an would not be too concerned.

Now that the situation is so tense, relying only on the three points of guilt in Emperor Yong'an's heart for her will not work at all. Gonggong Feng sent Xiao Jingzi to say such a thing, but he was afraid that he would be the most unlikely one among the four concubines to be promoted to the position again.

At this time, you can only play the tender card.

After a while, the lotus leaf brought the embroidery and fabric.

Lingxi took off the only jade bracelet on her delicate wrist, and after cleaning her hands, she propped the bright yellow cloth on the embroidered bandage.

Embroidery is a work to practice the mind, if the heart is dry, it must be embroidered badly.

The spirit rhino breath is peaceful, but there are too many things hidden in the impatience, and the embroidery is often distracted.

With a prick, the spirit rhino exhaled in pain, and the blood droplets that emerged from his fingers stained the bright yellow cloth red, and a small flower bloomed on it.

Lotus Ye was distressed, and she didn't dare to persuade her. You can only take a clean cotton cloth to wipe the spirit rhino. When Lotus Leaf wanted to give Lingxi medicine, Lingxi pulled his hand back and said softly, "There's no need for it." ”

Lingxi looked at the blood stains like plum blossom bones on the bright yellow fabric, and was stunned.

Below the concubine position, you can still compete with Emperor Yong'an's preferences. Above the concubine position, it depends on all kinds of connections in the previous dynasty. It is not easy for me to be promoted to the concubine position by luck. In the case of no one to help outside, how to fight with Concubine Ying and Concubine Rou?

"The Eighth Emperor is about to have a full moon, has the emperor ever decreed that Mrs. Situ enter the palace to meet him?"

Lotus Ye shook her head lightly, "Niangniang, the emperor only ordered Wen Jieyu's family to enter the palace for a few days. ”

"How can I meet Mrs. Situ?" Lingxi took the bloodstained fabric off the embroidery and replaced it with a new one.

Seeing that Lingxi was about to move the needle again, Lotus Ye hurriedly held Lingxi's wrist and said, "Niangniang, slave embroidery, don't move anymore, otherwise you will have to pierce your hand again." ”

Lingxi shook his head, put down the embroidery bandage and needlework, and said, "I must embroider this by hand, I am unstable now, I will embroider it later." ”

Hanyan came in with a cup of chicken soup from outside, and said to Lingxi after putting it down, "Niangniang, this chicken soup has been boiled all morning, you can drink some to warm up." ”

Lingxi hummed, picked up the white jade spoon and started to stupefied again.

Lotus Ye looked at Lingxi's appearance, turned around and sent away the smoke, then knelt in front of Lingxi, choked and said, "Niangniang, don't be sad anymore." Please, the slave is not good, the slave is at fault, the slave swears that even if she fights for her life, she will not let this happen again. ”

Lingxi looked down at the lotus leaf, blinked his watery eyes, and said, "I'm not sad." ”

Lotus Ye stood up, entered the dormitory, took a small bronze mirror, and put it in front of Lingxi.

Lingxi handed her beautiful eyes to the bronze mirror, only to see that the beautiful woman in the mirror was as pale as paper, and her lips, which should have been red, were bloodless. The eyes that flashed in the past were as quiet as ashes at this time, and there was no trace of life in sight.

Lingxi smiled tentatively in the mirror.

The lips of the beautiful woman in the mirror are raised, obviously smiling, but her eyes are full of sadness......

With a 'snap', Lingxi slammed the bronze mirror upside down on the table. Raising his eyes and asking the lotus leaf, "I've been like this for the past few days?" ”

Lotus bit her lip and nodded with tears in her eyes.

"It's the same when you play with the five princesses and the five princes?"

Lotus Ye shook his head, nodded again, and said, "It's better than now." ”

Lingxi sighed, no wonder the eyes of the fifth princess looking at her in the past few days were full of worry. The fifth princess is precocious, and after listening to those words that should not be heard, I am afraid that she will be wronged in her heart.

Lingxi slowly drank the warm chicken soup and said to the lotus leaf standing aside, "You don't have to worry, I'm fine." Also, don't talk stupid, now that the entire Yongshou Palace is under the control of King Ning, how can you prevent such a thing from happening again? ”

Lingxi raised his eyes, his face was still pale, "But it's okay, I don't have to hurt someone in the middle of the night." I can sleep in the temple without trembling......"

Seeing that the lotus leaf was silent, Lingxi stretched out his hand to the lotus leaf and said, "Help me in to sleep, remember to let the small kitchen stew another cup of chicken soup, watch it for a while, and send it to Zichen Hall around Shen Shi." ”

Lotus Ye hurriedly stepped forward to support Lingxi's outstretched arm, and replied happily with a smile in his eyes.

For more than ten days, Lingxi's food, clothing, housing and transportation have never let the lotus leaf touch his hands, but this deliberate alienation has made the lotus leaf uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart.

Now that Lingxi is willing to let the lotus leaf help her into the dormitory, it is no longer the anger of the lotus leaf.

Lying on the bed, Lingxi said to the lotus leaf, "Burn a tranquil incense, I want to sleep for a while." ”

Lotus nodded and went out.

It was useless to eat at lunch, so he only let his own wishes and slept in the dormitory.

The various scenes in the dream flashed before Lingxi's eyes, making her sigh and weep at times.

In the end, the scene fell in the Yizhu Hall more than ten years ago, and the nine-year-old Lingxi, who was only nine years old, followed Xiruo into the dark dormitory.

The silver charcoal burning at the screen emitted a wave of heat, and it was warm on the face.

Lingxi walked to the dilapidated bed, stretched out his little white hand and slowly lifted the heavy gauze tent.

Inside the gauze tent, there is a dream of a grown up, wearing a bright red wedding dress.

Youmeng was lying on the bed, with a hint of indifferent smile on his face, a hint of dark red at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes that should have been smiling were tightly closed.

Lingxi's heart froze for a moment, she looked back at Xiruo, and asked, "What's wrong with your girl?" What's wrong? ”

Xiruo lowered her head, cried profusely, and said to her, "Niangniang, the girl is gone." ”

Let's go? Where to go?

Lingxi shook Yumeng's shoulders like crazy, and said in a trembling voice, "Youmeng, don't scare me, wake up." Who am I without you? Said you were going to go out, don't scare me......"

Youmeng suddenly opened her eyes, raised the corners of her bloodstained mouth, and said to Lingxi with a bright smile, "Haha! Sister Ling'er, let me scare you. Youmeng's cold hands clasped Lingxi's wrists and said, "I can count on you being caught, good sister, you will be from me once." ”

Xiruo's sullen voice came from behind him, and said, "Concubine Ying's blessing is blessed, and it will be fine." ”

As soon as Lingxi turned around, there was still the shadow of Xiruo in the dilapidated dormitory.

Lingxi subconsciously struggled to open Youmeng's hands, and said as he ran, "Good Youmeng, you spare me, I still have to be on an errand in front of the Queen Mother." ”

"Sister Ling'er," Yumeng suddenly shouted.

Lingxi turned around and saw Youmeng, who was wearing a wedding dress, sitting on the bed, with no smile on his face, and his eyes were as quiet as ashes, shining with tears. Eyes down, tears dripping down.

"Yumeng, don't cry." Lingxi stomped his feet, frowned, and said, "Haven't I been able to succeed you?" ”

"Sister Ling'er, I'm going back." Yumeng glanced at Lingxi with attachment, then lifted the slow hand of the red skirt and lowered the heavy bed curtain.

Lingxi suddenly mourned, rushed to the bed in two steps, and reached out to lift the curtain again. But on the bed, there is a brand new futon, where there is still a dream.

Lingxi clutched his chest in pain, squatted down, tears falling.

As soon as Lotus Ye entered the dormitory, he saw Lingxi curling himself up into a ball on the bed, covering his chest, his pale face wrinkled together, and he couldn't stop crying in a low voice.

Lotus Ye's heart was sour, and tears fell. She called softly, "Niangniang, Niangniang, wake up......"

Lingxi heard the sound of the lotus leaf and slowly opened his eyes, revealing a trace of confusion in his watery eyes.

Lotus Ye wiped away the tears on Lingxi's face with a handkerchief, and said softly, "Niangniang, you have a nightmare." ”

Lingxi took the handkerchief and put it on his face, and the sound of rain outside the window came to his ears.

After calming the grief brought out of the dream, Lingxi's face returned to calm. Sitting up, Lingxi said to Lotus Ye, "I'm fine." ”

Hanyan walked in from outside, and after blessing Lingxi, he said, "Niangniang, the fifth princess has been clamoring to come to see you." ”
