Chapter 16: Then I'll give you a big gift
The imperial dining room was full of people, and Song Anhao stood alone under the eaves, inevitably attracting all kinds of eyes. Curious, indifferent, or dismissive, most of them are unfriendly.
Just when Song An was about to lose patience by these gazes, a little eunuch came out with a tray, walked up to her, and asked in a sharp voice, "You are the little palace maid of Lanling Palace, right?" The lily stewed bird's nest in your palace is ready. ”
"Yes, I'm from Lanling Palace." Song Anhao was impatient to wait, and when he heard this, he immediately took the tray with both hands and said with a smile: "Thank you." ”
After thanking him, Song Anhao left the imperial dining room with lily stewed bird's nest.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked to the gate of Lanling Palace, before she could step in, she saw Xiao Jingyu walking out of it.
Compared with Fang Cai outside, Xiao Jingyu now has a gloomy face, and there is a cold aura all over his body.
, why did you meet him again!
Song An was secretly depressed, but seeing the murderous Xiao Jingyu coming, she still flashed to the side quickly and obediently made way for him.
Xiao Jingyu almost rubbed Song Anhao's shoulder, and he was about to pass by, but he paused slightly, and ordered in a low voice and indifferently: "Huangquan, Gu has to go out of the city tonight, and he can only return to Beijing in seven days, and you can keep an eye on the people and things in the palace." Especially some suspicious people, if she dares to do anything wrong, she doesn't need to ask Lonely, just kill! ”
When talking about "suspicious people", his narrow black eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced at Song An beside him intentionally or unintentionally.
Song Anhao's body stiffened, and the hand holding the tray clenched violently.
Huang Quan listened to the order, grabbed the sword hanging from his waist with his right hand, and answered loudly: "Subordinates obey orders!" ”
Then, the master and servant quickly left.
Song Anhao stood in place, so angry that his hand holding the tray was trembling.
Although Xiao Jingyu didn't name him just now, it was clear that the object of his threats and intimidation was Song Anhao, and the words "suspicious person" and "don't talk about killing" deliberately bit him very hard!
Please, your suspicion is suspicion, but can I trouble you not to express your suspicion directly in front of others? She doesn't want to lose face?
Although her current identity is a palace maid, the palace maid also wants to save face!
"Out of town? Back to Beijing? You'd better never come back for the rest of your life! Song Anhao walked fast, and hummed angrily: "Knowing that your mother is in danger now, you still dare to go out of the city, I think you are an unfilial son!" ”
just muttered like this, until he saw someone appear, Song Anhao didn't stop, and a harmless smile appeared on his face again.
It's no wonder that you say it, her temperament was originally quite calm and indifferent, and when she is with others, she can always calm down very well. But I don't know why, every time I face Xiao Jingyu, this calmness and indifference disappear in an instant, and what remains is irritability, irritability, flammability and explosiveness.
Perhaps, it was because she subconsciously defaulted to him as the one who killed her, so every time they met, she always couldn't hold her breath. Either subconsciously fearful, or because of the rebellious mentality, it is very angry.
Alas, I can't control my emotions, this is a fatal shortcoming, and I must find ways to overcome it!
Song Anhao made up her mind and decided that the next time she saw Xiao Jingyu, no matter what he did or said, she would hold her temper and never be provoked by him!
Yes, Song An, you can! Even if he is the ultimate great|BOSS, but it's not the end yet!
Thinking of this, Song An's good mood suddenly improved a lot.
At this time, I heard from afar who was calling her: "Song Anhao, Aunt Suxin asked you to send the bird's nest to the Niangniang's bedroom." ”
Song An hurriedly responded: "Hey, I know, I'll go!" ”
Then, she went directly to Concubine Jing's bedroom.
Concubine Jing's bedroom, the door is closed at the moment, and it is very quiet.
Song Anhao walked to the door, first listened attentively, but found that there was no movement inside, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart. She raised her hand and was about to knock on the door, when suddenly she smelled a vague smell on the tip of her nose.
What does it taste like? It seems somewhat familiar......
However, when Song Anhao sniffed it carefully, he couldn't smell anything.
She thought about it, no longer entangled, and raised her hand to gently tap the door.
There was silence in the door, and after a while, Su Xin's cold and alert voice came: "Who?" ”
She said softly: "Aunt Suxin, I'm fine, Niangniang's lily bird's nest is stewed." ”
Su Xin in the door said again: "Niangniang is resting now, you ...... first"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Concubine Jing: "It's okay, let her in." ”
Su Xin stopped talking, Song Anhao took a deep breath, and raised his voice: "Then Anhao came in." ”
As she spoke, she reached out and pushed the door open, and the door opened with a squeaky sound.
Walking into the dormitory with a lily bird's nest, she found that the huge dormitory was empty, and there was not a single palace maid waiting.
Just when Song Anhao didn't know where to go, Concubine Jing's voice came from the side: "Come here." ”
Song An followed the sound and walked to the innermost part of the dormitory, only to see Concubine Jing leaning sideways on the bed, and Su Xin standing in front of a cabinet diagonally opposite the bed. As soon as she walked over, both of them looked at each other.
Song An felt that the atmosphere was wrong, so he hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Niangniang, the bird's nest is ready, and the people in the imperial dining room said that you should drink it while it is hot." ”
Concubine Jing smiled at her: "You put it first, the palace is a little tired, lie down and get up to drink." ”
Song An heard this, and his eyes quickly glanced at the bed where Concubine Jing was lying.
The bed was made clean and tidy, except for the place where Concubine Jing was lying and was recessed, there was no wrinkle in the rest of the place.
Seeing this, Song An was secretly thoughtful. At this moment, under the tip of her nose, there was another vague smell. She didn't have time to think about it, and as soon as she reflexively looked for the taste, she suddenly looked at Su Xin vigilantly.
Seeing that Song An looked good, Su Xin subconsciously took a step back, leaning her back against the cabinet door behind her.
The doubts in Song Anhao's heart reached the peak in an instant, but a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said to Su Xin: "Then please trouble Aunt Su Xin to bring the lily bird's nest to Niangniang for a while." ”
The corners of Su Xin's lips curled, and she seemed to smile back, but there was no trace of a smile in her eyes and on her face: "Niangniang, I serve you, you don't have to worry." ”
Concubine Jing said lightly: "I'm tired, I want to squint for a while." Well, there is a simple service here, you can go back first. ”
Song An bowed his head obediently: "Yes, Niangniang, retire well." ”
With that, she slowly turned around and walked towards the gate.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, she always feels like a mang on her back, so she can only straighten her waist and don't dare to walk too fast or too slow.
Holding her breath, Song Anhao finally went out of the door, and gently closed the door with both hands, and she dared to breathe a deep sigh of relief.
In the room just now, she observed that the bed was very flat, indicating that Concubine Jing had just been lying down.
In other words, before she entered the house, Concubine Jing and Su Xin were doing something else, and the reason why one of them was lying on the bed and the other was standing in front of the cabinet was precisely because she didn't want her to find out about it.
What is it?
Unconsciously, Song Anhao frowned tightly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she thought of the faint smell she smelled, with a familiar smell, and suddenly understood what was going on.
Su Xin stood vigilantly in front of the cabinet door, because behind the cabinet door was the dark room of Concubine Jing's bedroom!
And that smell came faintly from behind the cabinet door, could it be...... Xiao Liangzi has already handed over the things to Concubine Jing?
Thinking of this possibility, Song Anhao was puzzled a lot, and suddenly had an answer.
However, in order to be 100% sure, she decided to find an opportunity in the evening and sneak over to have a look.
……
At midnight, in the dark night sky, a few broken stars flashed sporadically. There was silence all around, and the entire Lanling Palace was immersed in night.
In the dark night, a small figure appeared near Concubine Jing's bedroom, and under the sporadic starlight, Song Anhao's white face loomed.
I saw her tiptoe to the door of Concubine Jing's bedroom, first listening to the movement inside with her ears pierced, and then taking deep breaths again and again. Sure enough, it didn't take long to smell what I had smelled during the day.
This time, Song Anhao finally determined that this smell was nothing else, but the smell of incense candles!
Incense candle ......
On the seven-year death day, Concubine Jing finally couldn't help it and mourned her deceased best friend!
Song An stood quietly outside the door, feeling very complicated.
Back then, Yumeiren made a big mistake because of a moment of confusion, which angered the emperor, and was ordered to die by the emperor himself, not only so that she was not allowed to enter the tomb after her death, but even ordered that no one should mention the word "Yumeiren".
Of all the concubines in the harem, none of them dared to disobey the emperor's orders. But this concubine Jing, who adheres to the right path of her branch the most on weekdays, just rises to the challenge and pays tribute to the jade beauty privately!
In the original plot, the memorial ceremony of the jade beauty took seven days and seven nights, and Concubine Jing knelt down in front of her tablet for seven nights without even closing her eyes.
But she never expected that someone had already planted a spy in her palace, and on the seventh night, seeing that the memorial ceremony was about to be completed, Concubine Hui suddenly led someone to forcibly break into the dark room of the palace and arrest her!
That night, the matter was reported to the emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor, who had always been arbitrary, was furious and removed Concubine Jing's concubine and entered the cold palace!
And Xiao Jingyu, who was not treated by the emperor in the first place, was also implicated and was sent by the emperor to the front line to support, if it weren't for the protagonist's aura, he would almost die on the battlefield.
Nowadays, although many changes have taken place since Song Anhao's crossing, almost all of the changes are inconsequential and trivial. And those major events that are enough to change the entire life of some people are destined to be staged one by one according to the script.
Now, it's time to come, and it's finally here.
Concubine Jing, who secretly mourns her deceased friend in the house, will not know that her fate will change dramatically.
Is it really worth taking such a big risk for the sake of a friend?
Asking herself, Song Anhao had to admit that if the same thing was in front of her, she might not have Concubine Jing's affection and righteousness, let alone Concubine Jing's courage and courage.
Song Anhao raised his head, looked at the night sky as black as ink overhead, and sighed lowly: "Fortunately, I'm here." ”
After sighing, Song Anhao turned around and left lightly.
As she passed by the roadside tree, she inadvertently turned around, and suddenly saw a black shadow flashing behind the tree.
The man was so fast that she didn't see his face, but she could clearly see a red corner of his clothes.
Ruolan, you are really dedicated, and you came to explore the road in the middle of the night? Since you are so attentive, then I will give you a big gift!
Song Anhao paused, pondered for a moment, and suddenly spoke, saying in a confused tone: "Hey, it's so strange, how can there be the smell of incense and candles in the Niangniang's bedroom?" ”
A low sentence sounds like talking to yourself.
Then she hurried away.
After she left, the people behind the tree slowly turned out, and sure enough, Song An guessed that it was really Ruolan!
"Incense candles? Could it be that Concubine Jing really dared to worship in private? Ruolan showed a look of surprise on her face: "Great, I'll tell Concubine Hui tomorrow!" Then I will be able to atone for my sins! ”
