Chapter 160: Red Sleeves and Fragrance (2)

Ji Ranjia pursed her lips and nodded with a smile, looking at the blue sky, her moist eyes were filled with fine sunlight, and the ripples illuminated her pure and beautiful face.

Her thoughts drifted a little away, she was seriously ill and walked through the ghost gate, and accidentally spied into the future. No, it should be that he died from the future, and he was too sad and unwilling to be driven back to when he was twenty years old ten years ago.

The Ji family had a very difficult life, they were outsiders and had no land, so they only relied on Ji's father to do odd jobs and Ji's mother to wash clothes and sew people to survive. The eldest brother Ji Weihai followed Ji's father as a coolie early, and he was pressed to the point that he didn't grow taller. She was sensible early, took her younger siblings to do housework, went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables, touched bird eggs, went into the water to fish, and thought of ways to help her parents share.

Day after day, year after year, their lives did not improve in the slightest, and when the eldest brother reached the age of marriage, no family was willing to marry the girl to suffer. happened to recruit a new batch of palace maids in the palace, and Ji Ranjia was so good-looking that she was spotted by the passing officials, so she sold herself regardless of the reluctance of her family.

In her last life, she was good-looking, even if her family was poor, her heart was still very high, and her heart trembled slightly when she was able to enter the palace and see the nobles standing at the top.

When she arrived in the palace, she looked good but was hungry and cold all the year round, her body bones were not open, and her little face was green and tight. Ji Ranjia's leaked temperament is gentle and humble, and she will come to things, and soon take advantage of her young age to follow her grandmothers to learn literacy, female popularity, cooking and other real skills.

With the accumulation of heritage, her brilliance gradually bloomed, and soon she was transferred to a favored mother. Zhao Ranjia has suffered too much, she is like a hunter, crawling and waiting patiently. Because of her safety, Niangniang treated her well, and directly mentioned her as a second-class palace maid, but the treatment was no different from that of a first-class palace maid.

She is like a dry soil, a little greedy to learn and refine her own skills, with the identity of a second-class palace maid, Zhao Ranjia often goes to the imperial embroidery room, the imperial dining room, with the majesty of the mother, but learned a lot of more exquisite skills. She also recommended herself to copy the scriptures for the mother, and practiced a beautiful hairpin flower, and the whole person was completely out of the rustic atmosphere of the village girl because of the edification of the books, and the delicate flowers like spitting stamens attracted the attention of many princes who came and went in the harem.

Zhao Ranjia was still not anxious because of her age, she served the mother carefully, and after waiting for the palace maid to have a place to go, she was picked up. She gradually walked into the center of power, calmly watching the palace ladies and princes fighting back and forth, listening to the ladies talk about the pickling of the women in the back house outside, and also did a lot of beautiful things for the maiden, and the heart of yearning for wealth was stirring.

After weighing it for a long time, she thought that she had seen the form clearly, and she had also figured out the heart of the emperor, and chose the third prince born to her mother. She thought that the mother of the three princes was a family of generals with great achievements, and the mother had been favored for decades, and the three princes were handsome, not to mention that their talents and character were top-notch.

Even if the third prince did not squeeze the prince to sit in that position in the end, he was also able to have the ability to retreat in the battle for the emperor. She is innocent and extraordinary, gentle and virtuous, and under her inconsiderate teasing, the third prince really asked Niangniang for her.

Although the prince's concubine is a concubine, it is not comparable to the wife of an ordinary family. Zhao Ranjia has a good plan, she only needs the favor of the prince, she wants a child who can stand on her feet, and she will not think too much about Xiao.

It's just that she is a woman with no background, and getting the favor of the prince is tantamount to hanging a sharp blade above her head, not to mention that she desperately wants to have a male baby, before she died, she knew that at the moment when she stepped out of the palace gate, the mother who had served her for seven or eight years poured her a perfect soup, and she had already stopped her from living a stable or superior way.

There is no shortage of beautiful and delicate young girls in China, and can the methods she has learned compare with the aristocratic women who have been obscene and powerful since childhood, and the huge strategists who have followed? Zhao Ranjia didn't even hold it for five years, and was rejected by the prince and sent to the cold palace, living the life of ancient lamps in Tsing Yi. Even so, the imperial concubine was still thinking about her, and when the third prince completely forgot about her, she sent someone to pour her a glass of wine, and quietly withered in the cold courtyard.

Zhao Ranjia still remembers the burning pain after the wine was swallowed, and at this moment, her mouth, intestines and stomach couldn't help but throb. She stroked her throat, and started with delicate and smooth skin, when she was really young and delicate.

Originally, she thought that she was going to enter the underworld and return to her hometown, but she didn't expect to open her eyes and go back to the time when she was twenty years old. Because she was going to be promoted to a first-class palace maid, she was designed by jealous people to be locked in the Buddhist hall on a rainy day, and one afternoon and the whole night were enough for her weaker body to absorb enough cold air.

No matter how favored the palace maid is, it is also a slave maid, and it is a blessing to survive the illness, and she can't survive it, and she throws it into the desolate back mountain, and keeps it in the mouth of the jackal without leaving the slightest trace. After all, the ladies sometimes quarrel over whether there is a royal doctor, let alone a little palace maid?

When she opened her eyes, most of her illness had actually recovered, but Zhao Ranjia was afraid of the palace for those nobles who could bury many lives with a wave of their hands with a smile.

Maybe the master really has some feelings for her, maybe he feels a little pity when he sees her dying, or he doesn't care about the reputation of a good master, and it's more likely that he is very comfortable to send out a red face and trouble. Zhao Ranjia still got the rewards of several masters, and took a breath to pack up her savings over the years, staggered out of the cannibalistic palace gate, and saw her eldest brother.

In her previous life, she was abandoned in a cold courtyard, and she was very homesick, so she handed a letter to her family, hoping to see her, but she had a good heart to continue the ancient lamp in Tsing Yi. I don't know what the messenger said, the eldest brother came with the whole family and Ji Xiaoye, who had just gotten married.

At that time, she was so thin that she was already out of shape, she had to shake when the wind blew, and her clothes were worn and washed white, and she was not much better than them.

They were dressed in half-worn but neat clothes, and when they saw her, they had distress on their faces.

Her eldest brother fell directly to the ground, and the man cried like a child, saying that they didn't want anything, they didn't want a daughter-in-law, a child, a field and a house, they just wanted their sister to be safe and happy. He also said that he was sorry for his father's entrustment, and he should have taken her away regardless of her when she turned twenty-five, how could their little people be blessed to be the prince's concubine.

The real words made her heart very sad, and she was helpless, she had no way back, and she didn't even have the strength to think about regret.

She was satisfied when she saw her family, and told them with a smile that she was just suffering from an illness, and when she was well, the prince would continue to come to spoil her and love her, and good days would soon come.

It's just that her stupid brother actually intercepted the prince's carriage directly with his family, knelt on the ground and begged for grace, wanting to let the eldest sister go home.

Who is the prince, it is one person under ten thousand people, he smiled gently at that time, and asked the servants to take them to the imperial concubine. The third imperial concubine smiled and led the Ji family straight to her small courtyard, and as soon as the gate was closed, it was in the small courtyard with a big slap, allowing her to witness the tragic death of her loved ones.

"Heh, Ji Ranjia, your relatives don't know the height of the sky like you, and the prince's frame dares to stop it, and the cats and dogs are all coming to the master! If this princess doesn't give you some color, where is the royal majesty? What is the face of the master?

Ji Ranjia, aren't you very arrogant and capable? Think this princess can't help you? Then the princess will look at your brother and sister-in-law, younger brothers and sisters, sisters and nephews are punished, will you continue to change your face! ”

100 boards per person, that's really beating people to death!

She remembered the bloodshot and painful eyes of every loved one, and the blurred appearance of flesh and blood made people unbelievable every time she dreamed back at midnight, thinking that this was a nightmare that she couldn't get rid of.

Looking at the satisfied man walking in front of her, she couldn't help shouting: "Big brother! ”

"Hey, girl, what's wrong? Isn't it upside down? There is no official road out of the town, the dirt road is not easy to walk and bumpy, you can endure it, and you will arrive home in one hour! The man smiled innocently and looked back, his bronzed face full of warmth reflected in the sun.

"Brother, can you drink some water? The bedding in the car is thick, and I don't bump. Ji Ranjia blinked her eyes, suppressed the tears in her eyes, and chuckled and poured a bamboo cup of water from the half-old sheepskin pouch and handed it over.

Ji Weihai took it and drank it happily, smashing it and smashing his mouth, "The water given by the sister is fragrant and sweet." ”

Ji Ranjia pursed her lips and smiled, she has been saving things since she entered the palace, all of them are small and valuable, and she left a few sets of those who like them and are not conspicuous, and the rest are exchanged for silver with others, and the silver is set aside for daily use, and the accumulation is exchanged for gold. Before leaving the palace, Niangniang and several princes born to Niangniang gave her a lot of good things, nothing more than some jewelry and silver.

She gave some to the good little sisters and the little eunuchs, and let them exchange the rest for all the gold. They are the people around Niangniang, who have been in the palace for many years, and there are many channels for exchanging gold and silver. The things that the master rewarded were good, but when she wanted to return to the village in the future, she didn't need them at all, and she didn't dare to use them.

So when she left the palace, she was just wearing a light blue cotton skirt, holding a half-worn hat, and carrying a burden. In the baggage, there was a six-inch square brocade box and two sets of clothes, shoes and socks, rouge made by herself, some flower tea she had dried, and the sheepskin bag that Niangniang had given her with her old reward.

Led by familiar guards, she used to be a celebrity around her mother, and she was always able to hand over people, and she was good-tempered and handsome and generous, so she didn't encounter a little embarrassment when she came out of the palace. There were even some guards who blushed and asked where her house was, who would pick her up, whether there were carriages and horses, etc., and others listened with their ears pricked up while making fun of her.
