Chapter Twenty-Six: The Nine Princes Arrive
The time soon came to the third day, and Xia Qiqi got up early in the morning as always.
But today, instead of rushing directly into the kitchen, she summoned a little eunuch - Xiao Lizi.
"Niangniang, I don't know what you have to do with the minions?"
Skinny body with its head very low.
Their mother is the reincarnation of the demon king of the mixed world, and he can toss trouble every day, he is very worried in his heart, and he doesn't know what their mother specially called him over this time.
"Oh, what are you talking about a mother's slave, how rusty, we have been together for a lot of time, you don't have to be so polite to me!"
Xia Qiqi had a bright smile on his face, looking at Xiao Lizi, with a wicked smile on his face, which made people feel furious in his heart.
"Niangniang, there is a difference between master and servant, please don't say such things."
The sweat on Xiao Lizi's head came out a lot.
You're welcome? Let's spare him.
Who are their mothers, who dare to call the emperor by his name, and dare to go against the emperor, how dare he disrespect their mothers.
"Oh, well, then you have it."
Anyway, her purpose today is not this, since he said so, she doesn't plan to force it, anyway, it would be good if she planned to succeed when the time comes.
"That, little plum...... Let me ask you, when did you start being a eunuch? ”
Xiao Lizi obviously didn't expect that their mother would ask him such a question, he was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses, and answered truthfully.
"Niangniang, I was sent to the palace when I was eight years old, and it has been eleven years now."
"It's so small!"
Xia Qiqi was taken aback, being a eunuch was to be punished by palace punishment, that is, he was ...... when he was eight years old
"Mother, what's the problem?"
Xiao Lizi didn't feel weird at all, it should be said that most of the eunuchs didn't think it was strange.
"Oh, no, nothing!"
Xia Qiqi patted her chest, she was just surprised, she didn't expect it to be so cruel in ancient times.
"By the way, you have been a eunuch for so many years, there must be many eunuchs who serve."
She went straight to the point, she really didn't want to go step by step, talking about the topic just now, for a person living in an era where everyone was equal, she still couldn't accept some of the systems here in her heart.
"Well, yes, yes, I just don't know what the mother is asking for this?"
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and since he had just come in, he was still confused, wondering why their mother was asking him such a strange question.
"It's good to have it, and everything is easy to do!"
Xia Qiqi stood up and patted Xiao Lizi's shoulder magnificently, Xiao Lizi was stunned for a moment, just looking at them like this, and he was so frightened.
"I said Xiao Lizi, you have a pile of eunuch clothes, it's useless, otherwise, you can send me a set."
Xia Qiqi's eyes reflected a glittering light, and the little abacus in his heart clanked.
Later, she wore a eunuch uniform to attend the family banquet, dressed as a little eunuch, and was not afraid of being recognized by Long Yuechen.
It's just that she doesn't know that she doesn't know that not long ago, Long Yuechen had seen her dressed as a eunuch.
"What!"
Xiao Lizi shouted, he must have heard it wrong.
Their mothers were all dressed in silk and satin, so how could they ask him to borrow clothes.
He must have heard it wrong, it must have been!
"I'm asking you to lend me a set of clothes."
Xia Qiqi said it once, revealing the standard eight teeth!
"Mother, this ......"
Forced by Xia Qiqi's usual performance, Xiao Lizi did not directly refuse, nor did he dare to directly object, after all, he was really afraid of them in his heart.
"Oh, what is this, I'm still very busy today, don't say anything, you can give it to me."
"Niangniang, this, I'm afraid I can't give you ......"
……
It didn't take long for Xiao Lizi to come out almost crying, and all that was left was a white undershirt and a pair of middle pants.
When some of the other subordinates saw him, they all ran over curiously, looking at him and covering their mouths and snickering.
"Little Lizi, you just went into the mother's house, how did you come out like this?"
"This ...... This...... It's all ......"
Xiao Lizi held back for a long time, and didn't hold back a word, her eyes just trembled like a frightened little white rabbit, looking towards Xia Qiqi's room.
All he can say is! The mother is so cruel!
Just now, he didn't agree to Niangniang's words, he thought that Niangniang would give up, but he didn't expect that their Niangniang had an open personality and was bold, so he jumped up directly and began to reach out to pick up his clothes.
He was then kicked out by their mother, and now his butt is still aching.
"Forehead ......"
A group of people followed his line of sight and looked at their mother's house, and then, looking at him with pity, said with a haha.
"I see......"
Then, everyone quickly dispersed, leaving only Xiao Lizi with a stunned face.
These guys, how rude!
……
In other words, since Xia Qiqi kicked Xiao Lizi out, he happily took his clothes to change.
Thinking that I was about to eat delicious food, I felt a pang of excitement in my heart.
Pulling the wooden door, she secretly glanced at the busy crowd, and then, snickering, she walked out of the courtyard with those unique steps of her previous life, avoiding the sight of those people.
When she finally walked out of the yard, she straightened her back, wiped her sweat a few more times, and finally, took a deep breath, and the smile on her face was expanding.
She's finally out!
Thinking about it, the sentence "Misfortune and blessing depend, blessing and misfortune lurk" is really good.
Although it is indeed a difficult thing to get up early in the morning these days and help Long Yuechen make breakfast, her efforts have finally received some rewards.
Long Yuechen had already transferred the secret guards around her courtyard, as well as the martial arts strong Jing Yi.
In other words, her current yard is completely free, so she can come out so easily today.
If it were the past, she might have just taken a step before being caught back by Jing Yi.
Moreover, because of this, she can still go to Li's eldest brother every day to listen to the sound of the flute and chat with Li's eldest brother or something.
At the same time, she also told her identity to Brother Li, of course, she was referring to Xia Lisheng's identity.
At that time, she didn't have much surprise or anger at the eldest brother, but just asked her why she said that she was Xiaoqi at that time.
Naturally, she didn't tell him that her name was actually Xia Qiqi, but she just told him that she liked the name Xiaoqi, and he didn't doubt it much, so she was relieved.
By the way, speaking of big brother.
Why did she have to go to the family banquet when she left her eldest brother, but Long Yuechen didn't want her to go, and she didn't even say a word to her, she was not convinced! She's going to a banquet! Hum! Angry dragon Yuechen!
Thinking about it, Xia Qiqi's eyes glared fiercely, and he quickened his pace and ran in the direction of the banquet.
At this time, a lot of people have gathered on the shore of Yuliu Lake.
Long Yuechen considered that the weather is now the time when the birds are singing and the flowers are blooming, so he specially arranged the queen here.
Although it was still a little early, a large group of people had already gathered.
Of course, this is a family banquet, and the ones who come the most are naturally those concubines.
Long Yuechen sat on the high seat, watching the women below flattering him from time to time, showing off coquettishness, and even when some women had already begun to sweep off the clothes on their shoulders in front of everyone, tempting him to their heart's content.
The whole face was darkened, when did he mix in this kind of woman in his harem.
After a headache on his forehead, Xia Lisheng's face suddenly appeared in his heart.
Not frightened and a little irritable, he raised the glass with wine, raised his head and drank it, and drank it all.
Next to him, the queen, who was dressed gracefully and luxuriously, looked at him worriedly, her brows furrowed, but she didn't persuade him.
She knew very well that he didn't have any feelings for her, and she was not qualified to persuade him, so even if she was worried, she could only look at her from afar.
And Concubine Yan, who was sitting under the queen, caught her worried look.
A cruel sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.
Fang Minxiu, sooner or later, I will trample you under my feet!
After drinking a glass of wine, Long Yuechen's heart became even more irritable.
"Jing Yi!"
"Your Majesty!"
Jing Yi stepped forward from the position below, still with a cold face, looking like he didn't hear anything outside the window, and he was really calm.
"Ninth brother, when will they come?"
"Should be ...... soon"
"Oh, Brother Seven, I didn't expect to hear the voice of you missing me when I first came, how about it, sure enough, without me by your side, you are lonely!"
Before Jing Yi finished speaking, suddenly, from the wooden bridge not far away, a man and a woman walked towards this side.
The man is wearing a good blue silk robe, and his delicate facial features seem to be randomly pieced together, but they are ingenious, and the most eye-catching thing should be the pair of peach blossom eyes that are like silk and full of evil spirits.
Not only does it make people feel charming, but the sparkling light in those eyes is full of wisdom.
The head is full of green silk, and it is completely scattered, and under the blowing of the breeze, it is even more demonic.
The man held a white fan and walked towards everyone with a smile on his face, and for a while, he lost the hearts of many girls.
The woman standing next to her was different, dressed in a pink palace dress, embroidered with a few smart butterflies, and her big and dreamy eyes looked a little playful.
But at this time, the girl is a little different from what she imagined, the girl has been hiding behind the man from beginning to end, like a child who has done something wrong, afraid of being scolded by her parents, and hiding behind her brother.
It didn't take long for the two of them to be in front of everyone.
"Why are you here so late?"
Long Yuechen didn't joke with him, he just looked at him with a cold face, and the afterglow shot at the girl behind him, with some anger on his face.
"This, big brother, you can't blame me, it's not like our little sister has been entangled for a long time, so I'm late!"
The man spread his hands, with a helpless expression, which made people look really unbeaten.
"Brother Jiu!"
The girl hiding behind the man, stared at her eyes, and pinched the flesh on the man's waist and abdomen with her hand, and after seeing the man's hideous expression, she proudly let go of her little hand, but after touching Long Yuechen's terrible sight, she lowered her head helplessly like a child who had done something wrong.
"Look at Brother Seven, I'm just telling the truth, this girl is still pinching me, Brother Seven, I really can't afford to provoke this eldest lady, I think, you better let her stay in this palace, let her stay with me, sooner or later, I will be tortured to death by her!"
The man pretended to be scared.
But the girl behind was moved.
She accompanied the ninth brother over this time to persuade her seventh brother to stay in the palace, but she didn't expect that her seventh brother would help her like this.
His nose was sour, a warm current passed through his heart, he sniffed, and Long Yuechen's voice came from his ears again.
"Long Lingyue, you stand up for me!"
