1.7. It's good to guard him

Le Xin's words fell on Jin Lan's ears, and the ground thundered.

She leaned over from the window and tried her best to slow down her trembling voice: "Sister Xin, I only have heartfelt admiration for the prince, and I have no thoughts about it." ”

Le Xin collided with her gaze, whether it was okay or not, when the words were opened, her heart was open, and she should know what to do.

The prince takes pity on her and wants to keep her, Le Xin has no opinion, there must always be fresh blood in the yard, instead of letting those cheap maids who are full of thinking about how to get close to the prince and climb onto the prince's bed come in, Jin Lan is still with a grateful heart, she loves and respects the prince, and she can listen to her own words.

That's enough, and Lexin's purpose is only to this point.

"Go back and bring your things over, I'll let Ayi accompany you." Le Xin walked out as she spoke, pushed open the door and shouted Ayi, and Ayi, who was squatting on the steps of the small pavilion and pulling weeds, flew over.

Afraid of being embarrassed, Ayi went with him, and it was important that things could go smoothly.

Jin Lan stood at a loss, but Ayi grinned, looking very happy when she had something to do, and let her lead the way.

He Ayi walked through the corridor pavilion to the room where he lived in front of him, Jin Guo finished his work and looked around outside the room, she was not on duty today, it should have been a time to rest in her spare time, but now she was worried because Jin Lan was called by the prince.

She heard footsteps, looked up and saw Jin Lan coming back from the corner, and was excitedly standing up to meet her, when she saw Ayi following closely.

Jin Guo's steps paused, his pupils trembled sharply, and his brain couldn't react to what was going on.

How could Brother Ayi send her back?

"Yo, it's your friend?" Ayi glanced at Jin Guo, took two steps back, sat down on the corridor around the corner, and said to Jin Lannu, "Go and talk, I'll wait for you here, I can't be common in the future." ”

Jin Lan said yes, and walked quickly towards Jin Guo: "Jin Guo." ”

Jin Guo grabbed her arm and walked to the side, she seemed to forget about Jin Lan's injuries, and her hands were not severe, and the pain made Jin Lan's face wrinkled.

When he got to the corner, Jin Guo let go of his hand, stared at Ayi's side and said, "Jin Lan, why did you get involved with Brother Ayi again?" What did the prince tell you? ”

Jin Lan carefully rubbed her wrists, lowered her eyes and said, "Lord Wang... Just asked me about the wound, I don't know if I was lucky, the prince actually left me to serve in the courtyard, Ayi came to help me get things, in fact, I don't have many things... You can do it yourself. ”

Jin Lan's voice gradually decreased, and the jealousy and imbalance in Jin Guo's heart instantly climbed into her eyes, she couldn't believe what she had heard, the ugly monsters in the mansion could be cared about by the prince? And went into the inner courtyard to serve?

Why? She hasn't seen the prince yet, she hasn't spoken to the prince yet, this woman in the courtyard, although everyone is afraid of Le Xin on the surface, but who doesn't want to please Le Xin to show her face in front of the prince? Now that the housewife has not yet landed, if she can really enter the eyes of the prince and get the favor of the prince, the days of this lowly slave and maid will come to an end.

What she was thinking about but always couldn't ask for, was easily obtained by Jin Lan, how could Jin Guo be willing?

"You say, are you pretending to be pitiful, deliberately inquiring about the whereabouts of the prince, and then sympathizing with the prince on the street?" Jin Guo's eyes were a little red, no matter who she was, she could accept it a little, she could scold a few words, and then felt that she also had a chance.

But why is it Jinlan? What is wrong with the prince's vision?

Jin Lan was frightened by Jin Guo's sudden grabbing of her shoulder, she was very hard, Jin Lan was in severe pain, and subconsciously shouted: "Jin Guo, you hurt me." ”

A few seconds after the words fell, a hand pulled her out of Jin Guo's hand.

Ayi squinted his eyes, and the expression on his face was very ugly: "You hurt her, can't you hear it?" ”

Then he looked back at Jin Lan, this girl. The vision is really bad: "She's really your friend?" Those who don't know think it's an enemy, look at the eyes that want to eat people. ”

Jin Guo calmed down a little, looked at Ayi's face, clenched his trembling fists, tried his best to smile, and his voice was softer: "Brother Ayi misunderstood, I am happy for Jin Lan, she can go to the inner courtyard to serve the prince, but it can be regarded as the end of a hard life, Jin Lan is such a kind girl, she should not be treated so unfairly... ”

Ayi waved his hand: "Stop." ”

He doesn't like to listen to this woman's nonsense, it's better for Jin Lan, his eyes are clear, he looks like a heartless person, he has been under the oppression of Le Xin's cunning fox for a long time, Ayi likes Jin Lan too much, from today on, he can be regarded as a playmate, Jin Lan will definitely play with him, unlike Le Xin, Cheng Ri said that he was naΓ―ve.

Ayi looked back at Jin Lan: "Do you have anything else to say?" If we have nothing to say, we'll go back. ”

Jin Lan glanced at Ayi gratefully, but still nodded: "Yes, please ask Brother Ayi to wait for me a little longer." ”

Tsk, this girl, should I say stupid or stupid?

But she spoke, and Ayi didn't say anything, just glanced at Jin Guo warningly, and retreated to the stairs.

Jin Guo's smile instantly froze and disappeared, she lowered her voice and sneered: "I didn't see your ability, but now it's okay, you climb the high branch of the prince, it can be regarded as a complete peace of mind, and it is not in vain that you have been beaten so much by Mother Ning, I used to help you, but in the future, I will rely on you to give mercy to me, help me more." ”

Jin Lan didn't know why Jin Guo was like this all of a sudden, the pain and helplessness on the street was not what she wanted, she was not going to be forced to die, she wouldn't pretend to be soft on the street to show jokes to others, it was her great blessing and creation to get a trace of mercy from the prince, she was still worried, where was it as powerful as Jin Guo said.

"I... I didn't pretend to be pitiful to cry in the place where the prince was going to pass, it was an accident to meet the prince, and it was also the luckiest thing in my life, to be able to serve by the prince's side, I was just with gratitude, Jin Guo, you are my only friend, and the only person who is good to me, no matter where I am in the future, I will naturally never forget your good, we are still in the same house, aren't we? It's always there. Jin Lan reached out to pull Jin Guo, she only had such a friend, no matter why Jin Guo said something like that, Jin Lan didn't want to lose this friend.

But these words fell on Jin Guo's ears, the words were sarcastic, she couldn't get it so hard, the person in front of her relied on accident and luck to get it all, and he was still pretending to be ignorant and pitiful here, and he was really annoying.

Jin Guo took a deep breath and slapped Jin Lan's hand away: "Okay, who doesn't know that you are happy?" Hurry up and go. ”

With that, he turned around and walked out of here.

Ah Yi watched from afar, and the annoying woman finally left, and hurriedly shouted at Jin Lan's back: "Jin Lan, why are you stunned?" Come here, grab your stuff and we'll go back. ”

Jin Lan took a few deep breaths before suppressing the sadness that surged in her heart, she turned around and said okay, trotted over, there was actually nothing to take in the house, just a package from the back kitchen, before she had time to open and clean up, she could just take it and leave, which was very convenient.

Ayi took the burden from Jin Lan's hand, fluttering, and couldn't help frowning: "That's it?" ”

Jin Lan blushed and nodded, "I... I don't have anything. ”

Ayi's brows furrowed even tighter: "I'm a big man more than you, Mother Ning is too deceitful, I knew that I should hit a few more times to vent my anger for you." ”

His voice fell, making Jin Lan laugh.

Seeing Jin Lan laughing, Ayi also laughed: "That's right, the little girl looks good when she smiles more, the prince likes others to laugh." ”

Jin Lan blushed even more, and hurriedly waved her hand: "I'm not to the prince... ”

Ayi didn't listen, picked up her luggage and walked forward, as if she knew that Jin Lan was shy, so she deliberately didn't look back, just asked her to follow quickly.

Jin Lan can't say why, her heart is warm, Brother Ayi is indeed a big brother who is very good at taking care of people, from the first time they met to the present, what she said made her very warm.

Jin Lan hurriedly followed, the two walked one after the other, and when they were about to reach the gate of the hospital, Ayi asked seemingly casually: "Why do you want to be friends with her." She doesn't look like she's really happy for you, I see, you're better off than her, but she has a crooked face and almost stamps her feet, obviously looking for superiority in you. ”

Ayi spoke bluntly, and it was also because Jin Lan entered the inner courtyard and was considered her own person to say this, she had to wake up this girl, and her eyes should be polished.

"I only have the Golden Fruit." Jin Lan's voice was soft. "Since I entered the house, I only have Jinguo, only she will smile at me, talk to me well, comfort me when I am sad, buy me medicine when I am injured, no matter what, she is my good friend, she has helped me, I have to remember her kindness for the rest of my life."

Ayi turned her head, her temperament... I really don't know if it's good or bad.

"It's me who lost my word." Walking into the courtyard, Ayi handed the burden to Jin Lan, "Zhi En Tu Bao is an excellent character, Jin Lan, you are a good girl, you have to believe me, friends are not just like Jin Guo you said, you will definitely have more friends, in other forms, more simple forms, with you." ”

Jin Lan's eyes lit up a little: "New friends? ”

"yes." Ayi nodded fiercely and patted his chest, "For example, you Ayi brother and me, you will be my eldest sister in the future, who dares to bully you, you tell me, I will clean it up for you." ”

Jin Lan smiled, with Le Xin and Ayi, she couldn't remember the birthmark on her face for a long time, she seemed to be an ordinary beautiful girl, she could talk to a sunny boy like Ayi, and she could stand with a beautiful and clean girl like Sister Le Xin.

In this courtyard, everyone is the same.

In the eyes of the prince, she is the same as an ordinary girl.

All of Jin Lan's inferiority, fragility and sensitivity seemed to be cured the moment she stepped into this courtyard.

That figure, that gentle and incomparably strong man, has become the person she is destined to follow for the rest of her life.

"Go ahead and put down your baggage." Ah Yi raised his chin, and then turned around and walked towards Wei Ziling.

Jin Lan put down her things and saw a few new clothes on the bed, Le Xin also left a note, saying that she guessed that she must not have time to make clothes, these are what she has only done and have not been worn, Jin Lan is Le Xin's, seeing that she is dressed properly, she will give it to her, and she must be decent when she is on an errand in front of the prince.

Jin Lan was moved, she had never seen these beautiful clothes before, she hurriedly and carefully put them in the cabinet, the door was suddenly pushed open, Le Xin saw that she was cleaning up, closed the door again, took Jin Lan's hand, and let her sit in front of the dresser.

Le Xin brought a big brocade box and put it on the dresser, as soon as she opened it, it was full of headdresses and rouge, and she put them in Jinlan's cabinet one by one: "You keep these, girls still have to dress up, don't be too plain in front of the prince, don't be unruly." ”

Jin Lan was flattered: "Sister Xin, these... These I ... ”

"Just take it." Le Xin's voice was very soft, "Starting tomorrow, you will follow me to learn to make tea and serve tea, light lamps and change clothes, take care of flowers and plants, read and hyphenation, and all kinds of rules to accompany the prince, as well as the skills of the prince's daily dotting." ”

Le Xin chose a few headpieces that matched Jin Lan's clothes and wrapped them around her, and slightly embellished them on the bun, and the people looked very different.

"There's a lot to learn, and it's also very tedious, but everyone has such a process, we still have a lot of time, just take your time." Le Xin is a very patient person, and Jin Lan is a supple and obedient person, as long as she learns with her heart, it must not seem too difficult to understand.

"I'll try." Jin Lan clenched her fists, her whole body exerting force.

Le Xin put on a headdress for her and nodded with satisfaction: "I have a few for you, you can wear your clothes, and after half a year, you have some savings, and I will take you to the street to slowly learn how to buy things, girls, everyone wants to be beautiful." ”

Jin Lan looked at herself in the mirror and subconsciously lowered her eyes.

Le Xin seemed to understand her careful thoughts, picked up a box of rouge, and spread a thin layer on Jin Lan's face.

"It's lighter, and it looks like a peach blossom in spring." Le Xin comforted her, "Don't always think about it, it's so good-looking, the prince doesn't care, we don't care." ”

Jin Lan raised her head and glanced in the mirror again, the white and tender rouge did make the birthmark a lot lighter, at least it looked less terrifying.

Le Xin and the others are all helping her get out of this shadow, she herself must be brave, she must be angry, and she can't let them down.

Seeing that Jin Lan's face looked a lot better, Le Xin also breathed a sigh of relief: "Tomorrow is like I will help you dress up like this today, you know?" ”

Jin Lan hurriedly said that it had been written down.

After the grooming was over, Le Xin asked Jin Lan to follow her, and the two went all the way to the tea room, Le Xin took Jin Lan to the cabinet shelf, and each box was a kind of tea, divided into last year's old tea and this year's new tea, as well as the royal gifts in the palace, dazzling.

"The prince doesn't like to waste, the old tea will generally be drunk in the afternoon, we can also drink, the new tea is on the time of the guests, the royal tea is used to receive important guests and princesses, such as the Yu family, it is generally the tea given by the emperor, the girls in the front hall are responsible for cleaning, these tea leaves are afraid of being moved, so they are only stored in the courtyard of the prince, we will take it to the front hall to receive, the preservation and drying of tea is also one of the homework you have to learn." Le Xin glanced back at Jin Lan, saw her looking at the note on the box with a blank face, and said softly, "Don't worry, it's okay if you can't read now, I'll teach you to read." ”

Jin Lan nodded reassuringly, and following Le Xin's side is always extra reassuring.

She seems to know everything, which is amazing.

"The prince doesn't pay so much attention to drinking tea, just filter the boiling water once, and then soak it in hot water for seven minutes." Wei Ziling is a very good servant, he doesn't have too strict habits with these things, after all, he has not been pampered since he was a child, and he is naturally different from the son-in-law who has been picky about his life in a romantic land for many years.

Jin Lan tried her best to write it down, looked at the different tea sets on the table, and fell into deep thought.

No matter how much you listen and how much you learn, you can understand it better than if you can't get started yourself.

Le Xin pointed to the kettle on the side, as well as the wooden barrel not far away that specially collected clean dew: "Boil water, the prince reads books, and there is tea from time to time." ”

After that, he turned around and went to get the tea, Jin Lan took a moment, although he was worried that he would not be able to do it and mess up, but he always had to take such a step, so he still quickly carried the kettle to the side of the wooden barrel, filled half a pot of water, and put it on the small stove.

The small stove has a special place for the fire to ignite, and Jin Lan watched the flame burn and breathed a sigh of relief.

"When the prince reads, he likes to use this set of teapots in azure." Le Xin took the tea leaves, prepared cold water on the side, and then waited for the water to boil with Jin Lan.

Time passed little by little, the smoke from the spout slipped out, Le Xin said okay, wrapped the handle with a thick cloth, and poured half a bowl of water next to it first.

Then she first boiled hot water through the teapot, then took tweezers, sandwiched the tea leaves in the teapot, filtered the boiling water, washed the teacups with filtered tea, so that the teacups and teapots could be stained with the fragrance of tea, and then waited for a while, re-built the water, and put the teapot and teacups on the tray.

"It's not so troublesome on weekdays, just brew it directly in a porcelain teacup, and now we can catch up with the prince to read, and we can also ask for a cup of tea." Le Xin was very happy when she said this, so she asked Jin Lan to put out the fire and follow her to Wei Ziling's side.

Wei Ziling read half of the book in his hand, Ayi dozed off beside him, heard footsteps, squinted his eyes, and saw Le Xin holding tea and sitting upright, looking a little excited.

"Lord Wang." Le Xin called softly and put the tray on the table.

Wei Ziling raised his head, put down the book, and said politely: "There is labor." ”

The expression on Le Xin's face did not fluctuate, and all the emotions converged into her eyes, she did a good job, she has always done a good job, she... It is Wei Ziling's shadow, the person who will always follow him, and there is nothing else except the affection of the master and servant.

"You guys have a drink, too." Wei Ziling noticed that there was one more cup, and cast a pleased look at Le Xin.

Ayi couldn't wait, so he went up and poured a cup, but he didn't drink it himself, but turned around and handed it to Jin Lan, who was still standing in the distance: "Jin Lan, come and drink tea." ”

Jin Lan didn't dare to move, until she saw Le Xin also pour a cup, and after taking a sip, Wei Ziling's smile reached out, took the teacup in Ayi's hand, and when she brought it to her lips, she smelled the clear fragrance of tea.

Even last year's tea, in Jin Lan's sense of smell, is a new existence, she can't tell the difference between tea and tea, and she doesn't even know the name of this tea, but... The cup in her hand was the same as the one in Wei Ziling's hand.

A different feeling came to her heart, and Jin Lan also took a small sip, sweetening it all the way to her heart.

Le Xin took the empty teacup in Jin Lan's hand and buckled it back, lest Wei Ziling take it wrong, and the three of them accompanied him in the pavilion together.

Jin Lan had never been so leisurely, Wei Ziling sat on his side, the sun fell on the pages, and Jin Lan could see the golden dust floating in the air.

You can also see Wei Ziling's fluttering eyelashes and the tip of his nose oozing some beads of sweat.

She looked at it, and suddenly moved her gaze to Le Xin, and Le Xin's gaze was also concerned about Wei Ziling's face, but her gaze was forbearant and restrained, without the slightest transgression.

It is said outside that if Wei Ziling wants to take a concubine, the most likely one is Le Xin.

This woman who gave her life for the prince without hesitation, in the eyes of outsiders, is a person who does not allow other women to think about the prince, a person who wants to dominate the prince until the master mother enters the house, and a woman who is ready to climb on the prince's bed at any time and become a little lady.

Only Jin Lan knew that those rumors and speculations were all false.

are all groundless unfair evaluations made by women to Le Xin in their leisure time because of jealousy and inferiority.

The Le Xin in front of her is obviously just a girl who abides by her duties and only hopes for the peace and joy of the prince.

She dedicated herself to the prince without reservation, even if it was her life, and what she asked for was not any status.

Staying by his side, this is the loyalty oath written by Le Xin with his life.

Jin Lan asked herself, compared to Le Xin, her gratitude is really nothing.

Wei Ziling was a little tired of seeing, he sat here for a long time today, and handed the book in his hand to Le Xin, Le Xin took it, carefully marked the place Wei Ziling saw, and then stared at Wei Ziling's back: "The prince remembers to enter the palace tomorrow to meet the Queen Mother." ”

The queen mother summoned, Le Xin thought, maybe it was related to the fact that King Yu was about to return to Beijing, and it would be good if the queen mother could still think about some of the prince's marriage.

After all... King Yu has always been at odds with the prince, and it is best for the prince to have someone to help him as soon as possible.

She always remembers everything about the prince clearly, and then is responsible for reminding the prince, after all, it is unreliable to expect Ayi, and Wei Ziling is obviously used to Le Xin's reminder to arrive on time.

He turned around and replied with a smile, "I remember." ”
