Chapter 32: Awakening
Xia Qing, who was in front of everyone, was still kneeling there, her face buried deep under a pair of robe sleeves, the whole person seemed to be frozen there by a piece of ice and snow, and her body, which was already very thin, slowly shrunk into a short mass at this time, and she was silent for a long time, like a dumb girl without saying a word.
And from Min Sishan's angle, it can just be seen that her back, which has been bowing deeply, seems to have been rising and falling slightly, trembling slightly.
Until Mu Lan asked just now, such a sentence.
Now, don't you want to kowtow to Lord Shanggong and Min Sishan in front of the two Guanglu Temple adults to make amends? ”
The slightly undulating and trembling shoulders seemed to be blown by a gust of wind blowing from the pole, together with the expression that was covered under the sleeves of a robe, and the ice wind blown by the pole in an instant was frozen in the frame when Mu Lan fell clearly, and the whole meal was silent.
When Xia Qing saw Mu Lan kneeling down from the side, he didn't know how many indescribable disgust and disgust swelled up in his heart.
And when Mu Lan threw one question after another at her, although she vaguely felt as if something was wrong, she didn't want to be in front of everyone in front of this new little palace maid.
Anyway, the facts are in front of me, and I don't care to confront you and argue against you, just because the facts won't speak for me.
And when Mu Lan said eloquently, on top of the queen mother's chrysanthemum banquet, in the entire catering division, only she, Xia Qing, could be worthy of the heavy responsibility in Min Sishan's heart, her heart seemed to be a piece of silk, which was torn out of thin air and torn into two pieces.
How could this be?!
How could it be...... Such......
It turned out that in the dining room this morning, Min Sishan was secretly behind her back, and deliberately kept the better one of the two ingredients for herself, and gave the slightly worse one to Mu Lan.
Whether the quality of the ingredients is fresh or not may be difficult to distinguish in front of laymen, but the palace maids who deal with the ingredients every day as the catering department are almost all sharp-eyed.
Because of this, in all kinds of competitions, large and small, the palace maids are all vying for it, wanting to use the better one, and show their unique skills in the cooking competition.
In this harem where everyone wants to squeeze their heads and desperately strive for their own early success, I'm afraid that only fools will not mind the quality of the ingredients distributed to them?
However, is Mu Lan really stupid? She's obviously a delicate person.
Otherwise, how could it be that in just two months after entering the catering division, she had already walked steadily between her and Chunhua, and quietly became the person next to Min Sishan, who can now be equal to her, or share good opportunities in the future.
I thought that this little palace maid who had just joined the catering department was no different from other palace maids around her, and she was also bent on climbing high and low.
But today, in the face of the opportunity that many people couldn't ask for, she just silently accepted Min Sishan's assignment, followed Min Sishan's wishes, and quietly pushed that better ingredient in front of her.
In this regard, doesn't she have a little complaint and unwillingness?
But just now, she heard every word she said clearly.
Except for doing his best to protect Min Sishan and taking the responsibility on his side, there seems to be nothing else.
Mu Lan's accusations against her don't seem to mean that she wants to be happy and revenge, and wants to put her to death and replace her.
Working together in the catering department, except for the last time, the two of them were facing each other on the corridor, and the intersection between her and Mu Lan was really pitiful. What kind of person is she?
This little palace maid, who doesn't seem to have anything extraordinary, was able to win the game with her own palm kung fu and easily knock her out of the game when she received a hand of congenital residual cards. How did she do it?
She has always been an enemy of Mu Lan, but Mu Lan seems to be ruthless but affectionate to her.
Otherwise, why did she say it again in front of everyone, intentionally or unintentionally, just before Han Shanggong advised her to make peace between the two sides.
"Lord Shanggong said, no matter who is right or wrong between you and me, if you can show people with sincerity and be worthy of heaven and earth, then today's events can be turned into small things and small things."
When things get to this point, can she still get out of the way?
At that time, under the righteous indignation, can you not count the words that you said to the two masters of Guanglu Temple?
Can Fang just turn a blind eye to Lord Shanggong's confrontation, can he be forgiven?
And all of this, isn't it enough to escort her to the Punishment Division and slowly torture her to death......
Thinking of this, Xia Qing couldn't help but shudder in his heart, as if there was an abyss in front of him, as long as he took a step forward, in an instant, he would be crushed into powder, and his soul would be scattered.
It shouldn't be, but what's the use of regretting it at this time.
At this time, what sounded in my ears over and over again was what Mu Lan said.
"Xia Qing, you're wrong!"
"In today's internal selection, what you lose is not your skill, but your heart'......"
"So far, I just want to ask you, don't you want to kowtow to Lord Shanggong and Min Sishan in front of the two Guanglu Temple adults in front of you?!"
......
In the silence, people saw that Xia Qing's deep back seemed to tremble, as if a dead person walked to the Nai He Bridge and stalemate with the darkness in front of him for a long time, at this time Fang gradually returned to his soul and slowly straightened up.
When the palace maids saw Xia Qing's face, they were all shocked in their hearts for a while.
It turns out that Xia Qing, who has always been unruly, is no different from us, and she will also burst into tears.
Xia Qing raised his head slowly, and his slightly stiff gaze moved from Mu Lanyun's breezy face to Min Sishan's face little by little.
Under a pair of misty teary eyes, as if he suddenly remembered something, he knelt down in front of Han Shanggong and kowtowed three times respectfully.
In a panic, he faced Min Sishan again, knelt down deeply, and kowtowed three times respectfully.
Maybe it's been too long to kneel on the ground, and a pair of knees have begun to tremble uncontrollably.
The once arrogant and untamed eyes cautiously looked at the faces of the two adults, Han Shanggong and Min Sishan, and Fang Cai judged the two of them, and said in a weak voice: "Lord Shanggong, Min Sishan, today's events, there are thousands of mistakes, all of which are the mistakes made by the slave maid who was greedy for vanity for a while...... The slave maid did not ask for forgiveness from Lord Shang Gong and Min Sishan...... I only begged the adults not to hand over the slaves and maids to the Punishment Division...... The slave swore that the mistakes she had made today would never be repeated in this life. Please also ...... Lord Shangmiya....... Min Si Shan ...... Extrajudicial ...... Allow...... Slaves are allowed to ...... Can you stay here......"
