Chapter 129: Betrayal (3)

"What kind of field I landed has to do with the pothos girl, go back and tell you Niangniang, I took this thing, but I won't come again in the future." A weak voice came from behind the door.

Chou'er and Ruyi looked back hurriedly, only to see He Xi standing by the door in a plain white shirt, with a faint coldness in his expression that rejected people thousands of miles away, and bandages on his foreheads.

The ugly child wiped a handful of tears, hurriedly walked to He Xi's side, and said in a choked voice: "Little master-"

Seeing He Xi's current situation, Luluo felt very happy in her heart, she said: "Isn't this Xi Cairen, if you are a talented person, I will go back to tell our mother, but today I am here on behalf of our mother, and now I am here, why not thank you?" ”

Ruyi was currently in front of He Xi, and said to the pothos: "Miss pothos, don't go too far, no matter how low our little master's position is, compared to you, we will still be a master after all, if it is passed out——"

"Spread it? Hahahaha-" Before Ruyi's words were finished, the green pothos covered her cherry lips and laughed as if she had heard a big joke.

"Ruyi girl, I advise you to look at your current situation, this is the Autumn Dew Palace, a veritable cold palace, what about spreading it? Do you make jokes for others? The pothos covered her stomach with laughter and softened her breath.

He Xi stared at the scene in front of her expressionlessly, the dew was still a little heavy in the morning, she was just wearing her middle coat, and a layer of trembling inevitably appeared on her skin at this time.

"Then the talented person will thank Shufei Niangniang for the reward, and wish Shufei Niangniang all the success." He Xi pushed away the support of the ugly child, and took two steps forward seriously, and blessed his body softly.

The smile of the green pothos climbed up her cheeks little by little, but the smile was hideous, she smashed the things in her hand in front of He Xi, and said coquettishly: "Oh, Xi Cairen, you see, the slave maid's hand is slippery and careless, fortunately, it is some quilts or something, it can't be broken, it's just dirty, but presumably the talented people don't mind, it's almost dawn, and the slave and maid have to go back to serve our mother, so I won't stay long, and I will leave." ”

After saying that, he walked away.

Ruyi was annoyed in her heart, and her breath was a little unstable, she and Chou'er stepped forward to help her up left and right, and He Xi said, "Why should the little master bow his head to such a person? ”

He Xi shook his head indifferently, bent down to pick up the two quilts on the ground, patted the dust on them and said: "She is just here to be proud, nothing matters, the most important thing is these things." ”

What He Xi didn't say was that when she woke up last night, she found that the quilts covering her body were faintly damp and moldy. Ruyi and Chou'er have always been careful, presumably this is the best in the entire Autumn Dew Palace, not to mention the ones in their room.

She put the quilt in her hand in their hands and said softly, "You all go back and change, and you will suffer with me." ”

Ruyi never expected He Xi to be so low, just for herself and her ugly child, her tears fell even more fiercely, she said angrily: "Little master, even if the slave maid freezes to death and starves to death, she doesn't want to accept their charity at all, what does the little master look like to Concubine Shu, even if it is not clear about the pothos, Concubine Niangniang herself must be clear, she-"

"Ruyi - this is her choice, maybe she is also forced to be helpless, this is not to go out and say this." He Xi hurriedly said.

Ruyi eased her mind, Rao is heart still had a depression in her heart, but she could only swallow the blood and water, He Xi looked around, and only then did she take in the scenery of the Autumn Dew Palace.

Because it is a cold palace, the concubines who were relegated here are either because they have committed serious crimes, or because they have annoyed Your Majesty, and it is even more difficult to get ahead than to ascend to the sky.

So day by day, the people in the palace are slowly slacking off, no one comes here to sweep and clean up, the yard is full of half-human-high weeds, and the window paper on the windows is scattered there because no one has repaired it all year round.

Adding a bit of depression and desolation, He Xi looked at it and suddenly smiled: "The ancient palace is lonely, and the palace flowers are lonely and red." The white-headed palace maid is here, sitting idle and talking about Xuanzong. ”

If He Xi is still in the mood to recite poetry, he said angrily: "The little master is still in the mood to say this, when the time comes, if a few of us are really sitting here with gray hair, then it will be really miserable." ”

"Will you?" He Xi turned her face sideways, although she still had a pale look on her face, but she saw that her face was quiet, and she had a dignified and graceful bearing, and Ruyi's impetuous heart seemed to have been soaked in a handful of soft spring water, and gradually quieted down and said, "No." ”

The master and servant entered the hall, Ruyi personally put on a clean and refreshing quilt for He Xi, and pulled the curtain that had already faded, and said: "Little master, the slave and the ugly child can sleep together, and the rest of the quilt will be given to the little master." ”

He Xi didn't refuse, just sat on the chair next to him, because of the perennial disrepair, he sat on it and made a squeaky sound, as if it was going to disperse in the next second.

"Can our people still use it?" He Xi asked softly,

"It's okay, but some people are going to go into the dark, and the rest is normal." Ruyi said while laying out the quilt. Suddenly, as if she remembered something, she turned around.

"It's just that the little master, the prince is leaving Beijing." Ruyi looked at He Xi and said in a low voice.

He Xi's fingers trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but look down at her plain white fingertips, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Ruyi said in a low voice: "That day, the slave maid went to the Xianwang Mansion, listening to what Miss Xiao Nai said, it should be going to Shuzhong, Xu Shangshu was urgently transferred back, and Shuzhong complained again, and someone must be sent to Shuzhong to appease." ”

"That's why I chose the prince, right?" He Xi gathered her fingertips and clenched them into fists little by little, and after a while, she heard her almost inaudible voice: "When to leave?" ”

"Today." Ruyi is concise and to the point.

It turned out that he came to say goodbye to himself yesterday, the corners of He Xi's mouth were smiling shallowly, and there was a slight sourness in her heart, she only felt that her chest was stuffy, and she couldn't breathe, she got up and pushed open the window behind her, so busy all morning, she could already see the morning sun when she opened the window.

The walls of this autumn dew palace are dilapidated, and some places have collapsed, but this is also the opportunity for the morning sun to shine in through the dilapidated palace walls.

The weeds in the palace have also been sparkling, and the dew is refracted out, and there is a different kind of beauty, He Xi suddenly returned to the time when he was recuperating in southern Xinjiang, the kind of day when he opened the window was the fragrance of birds and flowers, and his expression was a little trance for a while.

I hope he can be safe on this trip, and he feels that he is really bad enough, at this time, where is it still sad and sad, others are not in Beijing, and many things in this palace have to rely on themselves.

The fresh air in the early morning poured into his chest, and the depression seemed to have dissipated, He Xi turned his head to look at the two people beside him, and said with a smile: "Today's weather is very good, and it is also a good place to get rid of the weeds in the courtyard." ”

Chou'er and Ru saw that He Xi was still so optimistic now, and couldn't help but sigh with a sigh of relief: "The slave knows." The slave maid saw that there was a well in the backyard, and after a while, she went to fetch clean water for the little master to wash. ”

He Xi nodded, and Ruyi withdrew with the quilt from before. Wait until the tents in the house are dismantled, the master and servant are washed, and Ruyi goes out, the meals of the original palaces are all made by the imperial dining room, and sent to the palaces, only the concubines with very low status need to send people in their own palaces to get them, and now in a situation like He Xi, it is natural to need to get it yourself, He Xi helped Chou'er move all the things in the house out to dry, but he didn't want half an hour to pass, Ruyi has not come back.

He Xi heard that there was already a gurgling sound in Chou'er's abdomen, Chou'er's face under the mask turned red, He Xi chuckled, the sweat slowly pouring out of her forehead made the wound a little painful, she slowly straightened her waist and said, "Okay, rest for a while, wait until Ruyi comes back, we will make it after breakfast." ”

The ugly head was stuffy, slowly nodded, at this time through the dilapidated palace wall, saw Ruyi's figure from a distance, hurriedly returned, to the palace, He Xi found that Ruyi did not have a trace of smile on her face, her eyebrows slightly urged as if something had happened, He Xi stared at the food box in her hand, opened it, and knew what happened, she sighed lightly: "Is it the people in the imperial dining room who are angry with you?" ”

Ruyi bit her lower lip tightly and didn't speak, He Xi sighed lightly, and said slowly: "The people in this harem are best at holding high and stepping low, and now we have fallen to such a point, some foods are better than those who don't, let's sit down and eat first." ”

Ruyi hesitated for a long time and finally said, "Little master, it's not okay to go on like this." ”

He Xi took the steamed buns in the food box, they were already cold and hard, and it was obscure and difficult to swallow when they bit into their mouths, but He Xi still ate them with relish, her face was still as calm as water, she nodded and said, "Taoguang is obscure, I can't be in a hurry." Although we have not reached the sky in one step along the way, but it is also smooth, it is inevitable to attract hatred, this time it is not a good thing, okay, sit down and eat first, you must be full, in order to have the energy to solve the problems behind. ”

She took out two steamed buns from the food box, stuffed one in the hands of one of the two little girls, and pulled them to sit down.

The ugly child shook her head shallowly at Ruyi, and Ruyi only sighed secretly in her heart, holding the steamed bun in her hand and eating it.

On the other side, in the Ice Spring Palace, Xu Qing'er has never slept since the pothos left the palace, and when she heard the footsteps outside, she called out repeatedly: "But the pothos is back?" ”

Immediately afterward, she heard a sound of soft footsteps, and when she entered the inner hall, the pothos said softly: "Yes, Niangniang, it is the slave who has returned." ”
