"Slave Qin Hai to the fourth master, the thirteenth master to say goodbye. Ye auspicious. ”

Qin Hai's voice was about to fall, and he saw Yinzhen and an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy walking in.

"Yinzhen (Yinxiang) to Eniang (Niangniang) please be safe, Eniang (Niangniang) Wanblessed." The two of them dusted off their arrows and knelt down on one knee.

"Why are you here, this dish has already started. By the way, why didn't Fourteen come with you? ”

"Niangniang, the fourteenth brother is still in the Qianqing Palace with Huang Ama, he told us not to wait for him first, and said that when the matter is over, I will come over to Niangniang to ask for an answer to the fourteenth brother and sister." The Thirteenth Prince Yinxiang explained.

"Thirteen, don't cover it up for him, in the eyes of this palace. It's to pick up his daughter-in-law and then come to the palace to say goodbye. Concubine De didn't wait for Yan to say anything, so she waved her hand and said, "Okay, we won't wait for him, let's go eat." ”

Qin Hai, who had already received the order, had already led seven or eight eunuchs and palace maids to put plates of exquisite dishes on the table.

At this time, Concubine De sat on the top, and on the right sat the handsome young man with a heroic aura around him, the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang. He seems to have a good relationship with Yinzhen, and there is a sense of intimacy between their words and deeds. And Concubine De's biological son Yinzhen sat expressionlessly at the bottom of Yinxiang, and the mother and son felt strangely cold.

Then, it was the Fourteenth Fu Jin Wanyan who was sitting on the right of Concubine De, and at this moment she was talking funny things to Yinxiang to amuse Concubine De. The Wulanala clan sat down after the Yan clan, and from time to time smiled and agreed with Concubine De's words. The last is the Nian who sits between Yinzhen and his wife.

Huizhu looked at the scene where the whole family was talking and laughing and dining, and felt very sorry for her situation. It seems that the status is high, and the welfare package is indeed much better. Unlike her, not only can't she eat, but she also has to stand behind the Ulanala clan and watch others eat, and what is even more sad is that it is Yinzhen who is expressionless opposite, oh my God.

When Huizhu was pitying herself and staring at her feet in a daze, Yinzhen actually gave up his good habit of silence is gold.

I only heard Yinzhen open his mouth and say: "Niu Hulu, you step back first and go to eat by yourself." The still cold and undulating voice was particularly abrupt in the laughter, and immediately there was a brief silence at the table, and several pairs of eyes glanced at Huizhu together.

Huizhu couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.

The Ulanala clan was the first to react, and said in a round voice: "Yes, I am still considerate." Look at how I forgot, Niu Hulu entered the palace early in the morning and talked all morning, I must be tired, and I see that the concubine is confused. As soon as these words came out, Yinxiang and Wan Yan also reflected, looking at Yinzhen, who was still expressionless, and made a few jokes, but they didn't get any response.

Concubine De seemed to be amused by this scene, looked at Huizhu and said, "You are really a blessed person." Okay, Qin Hai took Niu Hulu down to have some food. ”

Huizhu breathed a sigh of relief, and after thanking Concubine De and Yinzhen, she and Qin Hai retreated and came to a room that was probably the grandmother next to Concubine De. As soon as she entered the house, a palace maid walked in with a food box, ready to serve Huizhu for dinner. Huizhu couldn't help muttering in her heart, it was really a royal compound, and when she was instructed, she would immediately be able to bring out wind pig slices, hibiscus eggs, mussel shrimp roe soup, one meat, one vegetable and one soup, and there were people waiting.

After a few sips, Huizhu didn't have much appetite, probably because she was on an empty stomach for too long or too nervous in the palace, so she simply put down the dishes and chopsticks. looked at the little palace maid, hesitated again and again, rubbed her calf that had been standing all morning, and said politely: "This girl, I don't know where there is to walk in the palace, of course, if it's troublesome, forget it." ”

The little palace maid replied: "You are Gege in the Fourth Master's Mansion, of course you can go." Just behind this house more than ten meters, there is a stone path, there are a few plum trees on the side of the road, now in November, plum blossoms are also blooming a lot. The slave and maid have a half-hour lunch for the master, and you can go there for a walk. ”

Huizhu thought about it for a while, she couldn't get into trouble for her because she wanted to move, she had to ask clearly. He took off a carved gold ring in his hand and handed it to the palace maid, and asked again: "I don't know if there are any nobles coming in and out, if there is, it will be bad if it disturbs the nobles." The little palace maid took the ring, and then said with a smile: "Gege, don't worry, where is very remote, generally there is no one else except the eunuchs who clean, you can go there for a walk, as long as you come back within half an hour, no one knows." ”

Sure enough, after walking a few dozen steps around the corner of the house, I saw a gravel path with five or six plum trees. Huizhu didn't expect that there would be such a quiet and elegant place in the magnificent Yonghe Palace, so she put aside the idea of living a low-key life and walked back and forth around the plum tree.

Although it is a November day, the plum blossoms are already fragrant and rich, and the dark fragrance is far overflowing. Huizhu took a deep breath, and suddenly felt the fragrance in her nose, refreshing her heart and spleen, and breeding a feeling of relaxation and happiness. Huizhu couldn't help but slowly close her eyes and raised her head slightly, feeling the quiet fragrance of this place at this moment. It is as if when I went to the countryside with my family during the Spring Festival in my previous life, I relaxed and enjoyed myself.

A gust of fragrant wind blows, plum blossom petals stain the sleeves, plum fragrance lingers around the body, and suddenly a petal falls on the cheeks, a little itchy; Huizhu smiled faintly, gently brushed off the petals on her face, and couldn't help but feel that she was very sensual today, and she was particularly eager to break through everything. Probably today, she personally experienced the division of people into three, six, nine and so on in Concubine De, but she had to rely on the personal experience of serving everyone, so that she clearly felt that she couldn't go back, she was really in the Qing Dynasty, in the Qing Dynasty where human life was like ants.

Thinking in her heart, she suddenly noticed someone approaching, and Huizhu opened her eyes suddenly, only to see a handsome young man of sixteen or seventeen, staring at her with a smile.

Hui Zhu was startled, barely stabilized her mind, and secretly looked at the young man in front of her. Although the young man is young, he is already dignified, dignified, handsome facial features, smooth and fair face, a pair of clear black and white eyes, dressed in a moon-white embroidered with silver dark lines, a yellow belt around his waist, and a fine white jade pendant hanging on the belt.

Seeing this, Huizhu's heart sank, it's not good, it's a yellow belt! So he didn't have time to think about it, so he bent his knees and saluted: "Slave, retire." As he spoke, he immediately turned around and wanted to leave, but the young man grabbed his hand and stopped leaving.

"Who are you, why haven't I seen you, you don't look like a palace maid." The boy frowned and asked.

The scorching sensation from her hand made Huizhu panic, and she resisted without thinking about it: "The slave is new, please let go, the slave is going back to be on an errand." ”

The young man obviously didn't believe Huizhu's words, but he saw that his thick eyebrows were raised, his hands were tight, and his tone was not good: "New here? No, there's no reason I haven't seen it! Little girl, it's good to look at you chubby, but you dare to lie to your master; Hum! Fat girl, tell me, who are you? ”

At this time, Huizhu regretted that her intestines were almost green, why did she have nothing to do to appreciate the plum blossoms, and if you want to reward it, you will go back and reward it again! She just lived a low-key life against her usual time, and she was so unlucky that she was bumped into the stubble, and she was called a fat girl. Huizhu thought about it with a slight annoyance in her heart, but said patiently: "The slave is really new, she is on an errand in Chuxiu Palace, and she is here to do business in Yonghe Palace." ”

The young man didn't believe it at all, but he didn't veto it directly, but persevered and asked again: "It looks like what you said, but you don't look like a palace maid, say, who are you?" ”

Seeing that the young man was so domineering, Huizhu didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and vigorously broke free of the shackles of her hands, and ran away while pulling her legs, while not forgetting to confess: "Please forgive me, the slave and maid have gone back on an errand, so I will retire first." ”

Before the words fell, before the boy could react, the man had disappeared around the corner.
