Chapter Twenty-Five: No Preparation
After sighing, he walked to the inner courtyard of Lanxuan Courtyard with his new mattress in his arms.
This girl has a wooden expression, wears a light cyan dress, and the bun is combed in a double screw bun that is combed by ordinary second-class maids in the palace, but it is slightly different from the buns of other ordinary second-class maids.
There was a small handful of hair coming out of the bun on one side, branching out, like a handful of chicken feathers, a little playful, and a little casual, but with her wooden expression, it became a little silly.
This girl's real name is Lin Yu, because she collided with the name of King Ning, she changed her name to Lin Qiao, and she entered the palace at the age of fifteen and nine, and now it has been six years.
Those who entered the house at the same time as her and remained in the house are now promoted to first-class maids.
She has been praised by Princess Ning for her good embroidery work the year before last, and she has never been promoted since she was promoted from a rough maid to a second-class maid in the inner courtyard.
In another year, when her time in the palace was over, she could decide to stay, but she didn't seem to have any plans.
He did not show any intention of leaving the palace, nor did he say that he intended to stay.
She is always a person with Mu Mu, one does things, the other stays, and occasionally when she is not wooden, she also goes to the pile.
Just like just now.
But she just stood in the crowd and never participated in the discussion.
Everyone in the palace knew her wood and didn't want to get close to her, but they didn't reject her.
Everywhere she went, she just treated her as a piece of wood and ignored her.
In the main courtyard of the palace, Qiu Lingyue stood at the door and watched Bei Hengyu leave. Mingqiu remembered something on the side and reminded: "Madam, it turns out that Caiyun, who was serving the eldest prince, left the mansion a few days ago, who do you want to serve in Lanxuan Courtyard?" ”
Qiu Lingyue returned to her senses and said, "Then how did Yu'er sleep yesterday?" ”
Mingqiu said: "Madam, don't worry, the eldest prince slept with the second prince yesterday." ”
Qiu Lingyue nodded, relieved.
In fact, no matter whether Bei Hengyu is at home or not, Lanxuan Courtyard cleans every day in accordance with the rules of having a master to live, but Caiyun is gone, and now there are no first-class inner courtyard maids serving in Lanxuan Courtyard.
Mingqiu waited for a while, and saw that Qiu Lingyue didn't react, so he reminded again: "Madam, who are you going to see?" ”
Qiu Lingyue thought for a while and said, "Choose a quieter one, Yu'er likes to be quiet." ”
looked at Mingqiu: "Do you have any ideas?" ”
Mingqiu pondered for a moment and said, "There are a few candidates for the quiet, and it is very good to have a spring and summer among the first-class maids." ”
Qiu Lingyue turned her head, looked at Mingqiu, and said, "You mean that skinny little girl?" ”
Mingqiu nodded.
Qiu Lingyue shook her head: "She's too quiet." ”
Mingqiu helped Qiu Lingyue to walk into the house, and said with a smile: "Which one does the lady fancy?" Madame loves the eldest prince so much, she must have thought of a candidate in her heart. ”
Qiu Lingyue stopped, looked at Mingqiu, and smiled, and said, "Since you understand my mind so well, why don't you guess which one I fancie?" ”
Mingqiu raised his cheeks in contemplation, frowned and shook his head after a while, and said, "Madame's mind is too exquisite, Mingqiu can't guess it." ”
Qiu Lingyue shook her head with a smile, raised her hand and knocked on Mingqiu's head: "You girl." ”
Mingqiu covered his head and smiled: "It's not that Mrs. is too good, and Mingqiu is not used to it." ”
Qiu Lingyue heard this, but the smile on the corner of her mouth slowly fell, and she looked at Mingqiu deeply.
Seeing this, Mingqiu hurriedly said: "That girl is not bad, it's better to let Chun Xia and that girl go to Lanxuan Courtyard to serve, and it is better to serve more carefully." ”
Qiu Lingyue knew that Mingqiu was deliberately changing the topic, and sighed: "Then let the two of them go together." "Keep going inside, don't continue the conversation.
She persuaded and persuaded, but she couldn't persuade her, and she couldn't bear to see Mingqiu's red eyes again.
It's just that...... Mingqiu can't be with her for the rest of her life after all.
Persuade me after a while.
Tomorrow is Princess Ning's birthday, but Bian Nuan still didn't move at all, Yu'er was really a little anxious, and reminded: "Miss, tomorrow is Madame's birthday, aren't you going to do anything?" ”
Bian Nuan lay on the rattan chair, squinting and rubbing his stomach in circles.
When she came back from the main courtyard, she ate some dessert again, but she didn't control it, and ate a little too much.
Seeing that Bian Nuan didn't reply, Yu'er was a little anxious: "Miss? ”
Bian Nuan slowly opened his eyes, glanced at Yu'er, and said slowly: "How do you say that sentence?" The emperor is not in a hurry, but he is in a hurry to go crazy eunuchs? ”
Yu'er's eyes widened in horror, she was so frightened that she covered her mouth first, and then reacted and went to cover Bian Nuan's mouth: "Miss, you can't talk nonsense!" ”
"Hmm......" Bian Nuan was startled by Yu'er's sudden move, and subconsciously was about to struggle, when suddenly a scene flashed in her mind.
Yu'er's expression and reaction were very similar to the reactions of the housekeeper and Li Sheng when she shouted the wrong words in a hurry at the gate of the palace that day. However, Yu'er is exaggerated a lot.
Bian Nuan pulled away Yu'er's hand, sat up from the rattan chair, and looked at Yu'er seriously.
Yu'er was still frightened, she didn't ease her senses, and when she saw Bian Nuan looking at her like this, she was angry when Bian Nuan was angry, and hurriedly explained: "Miss, you can't say that just now." ”
Bian Nuan said: "Why can't you say it?" ”
How do you explain that? Miss should understand.
Yu'er was about to cry.
Bian Nuan recalled what he had just said. Could it be that the emperor here can't afford to joke.
Take a look at Yu'er's panicked look. Sigh.
It seems so.
stepped forward and comforted: "Okay, okay, it's my slip of the tongue, I must pay attention next time and don't talk nonsense." La Yu'er got up and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes for her.
"Look at you, you cry at every turn, how did you guarantee it last time? Forgot all? ”
Yu'er wiped away her tears, sniffled and said, "Miss, don't remember that the saint's jokes are not to be made. ”
Bian Nuan nodded impatiently.
She hadn't seen the emperor yet.
She said that Nuan Yang would be the mother of a country in the future, but she didn't say which emperor's wife she would be.
Thinking about it like this, she couldn't help but want to ask Yu'er how old the current emperor is, but seeing Yu'er's timid appearance, she changed her mind,
Ask her this again, and it will scare her to cry again.
Shaking his head, he sighed, and put aside the doubts in his heart for the time being.
"Yu'er, there's something ...... something"
Yu'er hadn't recovered yet, her spirit was tense, and when she heard Bian Nuan calling her, her heart immediately lifted up again.
Bian Nuan looked at Yu'er with a nervous look and frowned. She originally thought that Xiang'er was the least courageous, but she didn't want this girl to be the least courageous.
Shake your head and stand up.
Yu'er saw Bian Nuan suddenly get up, and she also got up: "Miss? ”
Bian Nuan glanced at her and said, "You go and help me prepare something." ”
The 29th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar coincides with the arrival of the Bailu solar term.
The white dew falls, the cool breeze comes, and the cicadas chirp.
The weather will gradually get cooler from today.
There are many shade trees in the warm incense courtyard, which is suitable for enjoying the cool in summer, and it is not suitable for living in the cold weather when the weather turns cooler.
In the past few days, Bian Nuan has clearly felt that the coolness in the yard is getting heavier and heavier in the early morning.
