Chapter 124: The Famous Ying Jieyu
Although Concubine Zhang Xian left halfway, it did not affect the holding of the banquet. After a series of happy events, the hall is more peaceful and peaceful.
Hua Qingrao drank secretly, and she couldn't stop drinking one cup at a time. Although she was promoted to Jieyu by the way, this made her unhappy at all.
Concubine Zhang Xian's move undoubtedly rescued the talented people she had worked so hard to lock up in the palace.
The alcohol had numbed her nerves and made her eyes slightly hazy. She casually glanced at the position of the head, and Hui Xiuyuan, who was beside the Queen Mother, was gone.
She supported her somewhat dizzy body and quietly walked out of the hall.
As soon as she walked out of the hall, the cold wind hit her body, making her brain a little clear. She retreated to the palace and looked for Hui Xiuyuan's figure outside the huge hall alone.
I don't know how many trees I stumbled into, and I found Hui Xiuyuan in a pavilion. She looked at Hui Xiuyuan's back, smiled stupidly, and staggered forward.
Hui Xiuyuan heard heavy footsteps behind her, turned her head to look, and saw Hua Qingrao who was shaking her body to climb the steps. She looked at Hua Qingrao's slightly drunk face, and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.
Hua Qingrao looked down at the steps under her feet, she was dazzled and saw the two steps as one, and she couldn't tell which one she was going to step on.
She felt irritable, and her heart crossed and she stepped down the steps in sight.
Hui Xiuyuan saw Hua Qingrao step on the air with her own eyes, and the whole person threw herself to the ground. There was a hint of panic on her face, and she hurriedly raised her hand to help.
Hua Qingrao was caught by her steadily, and her heart dared to let go slightly.
Hua Qingrao leaned on her and muttered, "Concubine... CongratulationsΒ·Β· Niang Niang promoted! β
Hui Xiuyuan looked at her and couldn't say anything, and her face was a little crying and laughing. "This position is promoted, Ying Jieyu, you are so happy that you have drunk a lot."
She felt that Hua Qingrao was overwhelmed, and used all her strength to help her up.
"Can you stop?" She asked softly.
"Yes!" Hua Qing suddenly said in a loud voice, "Look how straight I stand!" β
Hui Xiuyuan looked at her standing up straight with her neck stretched, and laughed out loud.
"Isn't it straight?" Hua Qingrao frowned, as if she was dissatisfied with her laughter.
Hui Xiuyuan held her arm and coaxed like a child: "Okay, stand up straight!" β
Just as Hui Xiuyuan was about to help her walk back, she suddenly heard an angry shout not far away: "Is this how you talk to me!" β
Hua Qingrao was so frightened by this sudden sound that she shuddered, she stomped her feet on the ground dissatisfied, and muttered in her mouth: "Zhao Yu, you yelled at me again!" β
As she spoke, she shook off Hui Xiuyuan and ran towards the voice.
Because she was drunk and spit out vague words, Hui Xiuyuan only heard Zhao characters clearly. She was suddenly shocked, thinking that this little girl dared to call everyone's name.
When she came back to her senses, Hua Qingrao had already run away. She sighed lightly and reluctantly hurried after her.
Hua Qingrao followed the voice and looked for it, and before she could see what the scene was, she said angrily: "Who gave you the courage to scold the position!" β
Those people were startled by the sudden appearance of the woman, and they couldn't react for a long time.
Hui Xiuyuan ran over, she held Hua Qingrao's swaying body and glanced at the person in front of her.
The three or four of them were all dressed as guards, and one of them had a clear slap mark on his face, and he was afraid that he would be reprimanded.
She said in a cold voice: "The standard is Hui Xiuyuan, who is personally sealed by everyone, why are you making noise here, disturbing the purity of the position!" β
When the guards heard her reveal her identity, they were all shocked, and saluted in a hurry: "See the two mothers for their humble duties." β
The guard in the lead hurriedly said: "I don't know that the two mothers are here, they have disturbed the purity of the mother, and please atone for your sins!" β
Hui Xiuyuan stared at Hua Qingrao closely, for fear that she would say something nonsense. For a while, she seemed to be asleep again, and became quiet.
"I'll spare you for the time being, let's go quickly!" She didn't dare to linger any longer, and was ready to turn away.
But before she could turn around and take a step, the scolded guard suddenly knelt down and said loudly: "Please also ask Niangniang to be the master of the humble position, and return the innocence of the humble position!" β
The leading guard was still glad that he had escaped this catastrophe, but he didn't expect him to be such an unknown person, so he hurriedly scolded: "Mao Ziyi, don't be unreasonable in front of Niangniang!" β
Hua Qing, who had been quiet, suddenly opened her eyes, pointed to the guard named Mao Ziyi who was kneeling on the ground and said, "You said, this position is your master, that Zhao..."
As soon as Zhao Zi was spit out the first sound, Hua Qingrao was covered by Hui Xiuyuan. She felt a cold sweat on her back, and looked up at the leading guard.
Hua Qingrao frowned and struggled reluctantly, still muttering indistinctly.
Hui Xiuyuan touched her hair and said softly, "Be good, obedient." β
Mao Ziyi knelt on the ground and looked at her gentle and tranquil appearance, and couldn't help but be a little distracted.
Hui Xiuyuan saw that Hua Qingrao's mood gradually calmed down, and slowly breathed a sigh of relief. She raised her head and stared at her in the eyes of Mao Ziyi, and her voice was a little cold: "Say, what grievances do you have?" β
The moment they looked at each other, Mao Ziyi felt his heart tremble, and he lowered his eyes in a panic. After calming down his heart, he spoke: "Today, it is clear that he is not on duty during the day, and an internal servant smuggled items out of the palace and was caught by Yi Xiuyi, but Lord Zhang just detained this matter on the lowly position, saying that the lowly duty colluded with the inner servant to earn kickbacks. β
When the leading guard heard this, he glared at him angrily, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Niangniang, there is no humble position!" He should have been on duty during the day today, so if something like this happens, he will naturally find him. β
Mao Ziyi said coldly: "I have already told you about the exchange of value with Zhang San. Now something has happened, and you're pretending to be confused. β
Hui Xiuyuan's head was big when she heard this, and when she saw that the leading guard still wanted to refute something, she hurriedly interrupted: "Okay, this matter is already clear!" Mao Ziyi is not at fault, I'm afraid you also have a lot of mistakes, so let's stop this matter. If it's big, it's not good for any of you. β
"Yes." The leading guard replied with some unwillingness on his face.
Hui Xiuyuan waved her hand impatiently and said, "Let's go down!" β
"Retire from your duties."
Several guards left quickly, only the one named Mao Ziyi stood still in place.
Hui Xiuyuan frowned and looked at him, and said coldly: "The innocence has been returned to you, what are you still doing here?" β
Mao Ziyi glanced at Hua Qingrao, who was leaning on her, and said loudly: "I'm afraid that the mother is alone, and it will be difficult to help this lady back to the palace." Niangniang is also innocent, and she wants to stay and help Niangniang. β
Hui Xiuyuan followed his line of sight, Hua Qingrao leaned on her shoulder as if she was asleep, she forgot that there was such a troublesome spirit.
She pondered for a while, and her voice gradually softened: "She should have eaten too much wine and food, and the main hall may not be able to go back, so you can help her to help her to the Changle Palace." β
When Mao Ziyi heard the Changle Palace, surprise flashed in his eyes. He raised his eyes again and looked carefully at the woman leaning on her shoulder, it turned out that this was everyone's favored Yingjieyu.
Hui Xiuyuan's clear eyes seemed to see through his thoughts, and she said slowly: "Yes, this is the famous Ying Jieyu." β
Mao Ziyi quickly withdrew his eyes, and said with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "It's a reckless deed." β
Hui Xiuyuan showed a vague smile on her face, "Let's go, you just need to hold her arm." β
