Chapter 44: The Main Palace
The next morning, Yi Yusheng woke up, the man beside her was still confined with his eyes closed, she couldn't help but tilt her head to look, who knew that after looking at it for a while, the man suddenly opened his eyes, turned over and pressed her under him.
"Peeking comes at a price." Kong Lan teased in vain.
Yi Yusheng replied: "You can't take it easy, I'm still in a little pain down there!" β
"Really?" Kong Lanvain looked down at her, his eyes shining through the scrutiny, "Why do you feel like you're fooling me." β
When the words fell, he wanted to go down and kiss him, but at this moment, the sound of the door was slammed, and Ji Xiaolin's voice came: "Young marshal, Madame told you to go home immediately." β
Kong Lanvain frowned, "Did my mother say what it was for?" β
"This ......"
Ji Xiaolin was spitting and spitting, as if there was something unspeakable, Yi Yusheng hurriedly persuaded Kong Lanfu: "There may be something important, go back quickly." β
Kong Lan groaned for a moment, and after a kiss on her lips, he turned over and got up, got dressed, and went out to Ji Xiaolin, "Let's go." β
Ji Xiaolin reminded in a whisper: "It's Miss Pan who is back." β
That night, Yi Yusheng went to Paramount Gate, because the bracelet of Dongzhu on his hand aroused the envy of many people, Feng Zhen asked, "Was it given by Young Marshal Kong?" β
Yi Yusheng nodded, her fingers swayed on Dongzhu, a smile rose from the bottom of her heart, and another dancer said: "Sister Yi can be so favored by the young marshal, it really makes us envious." β
"Someday you'll meet a man who willingly pays for you." Yi Yusheng said to her.
There was a lot of talk and laughter here, and Fang Mei's face in one corner was about to turn black into coal, and she whispered: "Let's enjoy it while we can still talk about it now, anyway, it's been these two days!" β
Kong Lanvain didn't show up this night, and only sent Ji Xiaolin to inform Yi Yusheng, and Yi Yusheng asked more: "Is there really something big going on?" β
"It's not counted, it's a guest at home, and the young marshal can't leave." As soon as Ji Xiaolin finished speaking, Liu Xia twisted his thin waist and interjected: "The mother of the main palace is back, and the junior naturally only has a share on the side." β
Yi Yusheng heard that something was wrong with this, and called Liu Xia: "What do you mean by this, make it clear." β
"That's ......" As soon as Liu Xia spoke, she was glared at by Ji Xiaolin, who was the celebrity in front of Kong Shaoshuai, she didn't dare to provoke, and turned around and left without saying "I won't tell you" again.
Yi Yusheng saw that it was Ji Xiaolin who made the ghost, and pulled him and said, "Tell me honestly, did she mean that Pan Jinxiu came back just now?" β
Ji Xiaolin nodded slightly embarrassed, so as not to think too much about Yi Sheng, he said quickly: "Miss Yi should know that the young marshal and Miss Pan are just married by a family, and they are ruthless, and the young marshal stays in the mansion to accompany her, all for the sake of the lady's face." β
Yi Yusheng slowly loosened his sleeves, and laughed twice after being stunned: "Liu Xia is right, she is the mother of the main palace, what am I, you don't have to explain this to me at all." β
After finishing speaking, she bypassed Ji Xiaolin and left, Ji Xiaolin wanted to follow, she only said that she wanted to walk alone.
After changing clothes and walking out of Paramount, the autumn breeze is bleak and the night is getting cooler, and the cold is not able to withstand the tightening of the coat, but compared with the temperature of the heart, it is a big deal.
She kept touching the bracelet, thinking about what the person who gave the bracelet was doing now, it must be a happy family gathering, and there was a beautiful fiancΓ©e sitting next to her, adding tea to his dishes......
And all of that has nothing to do with her, she's just a person who can't be put on the stage!
When she returned to the small mansion, she went back to the bedroom, she wanted to sleep and put aside all her worries, but she couldn't sleep until late at night, and she seemed to be waiting for someone to come, but when it was dawn, no one cared.
Mother Yi felt something was wrong when she saw her last night, and she was also worried all night, and at this time she was holding a bowl of poached eggs outside and knocking on the door: "Sheng, are you up?" Came out for breakfast. β
Yi Yusheng has never brought the slightest unhappiness to her mother since she was a child, in front of her mother, she has the strongest shell, even if she is bitter in her heart, she still smiles when facing her mother, and now is no exception.
Smiled and opened the door to take the poached egg from Yi's mother's hand, and went to the dinner table to eat together, Yi's mother knew what she was forbearing, and wanted to ask, but she said first: "I'm going to go to the street to buy something in a while, what does my mother want to eat?" β
"I don't have anything to eat, Sheng, you ......"
"How about chestnut cake? I haven't bought it for you in a long time. Yi Yusheng interrupted.
Yi's mother saw that she didn't want to say it, so she didn't ask, and just said "yes".
Not long after Yi Yusheng went out, the doorbell rang, and she thought it was Yi Yusheng who came back, and went to open the door while saying, "Why did you come back so soon", but it turned out that it was Kong Lanvain.
"Auntie." Kong Lan greeted politely, "I'm here to find Yi Sheng." β
Yi's mother hurriedly introduced him into the house, "She went to buy chestnut cakes, and Mr. Kong is afraid that he will have to wait for a while." β
"It doesn't matter."
Yi's mother sighed casually when she came with tea, "I don't know what's wrong with that girl, as soon as she came back last night, she was probably afraid that I would be worried and didn't want to tell me, if only Mr. Kong could enlighten her." β
"Don't worry, aunt, I'll do my best."
Kong Lanwei took the teacup and held it tightly in his hand, feeling very uncomfortable, why was Yi Yusheng depressed last night, he had already learned through Ji Xiaolin early in the morning, so he came non-stop, and on the way he was still blaming Ji Xiaolin why he didn't tell him last night, but after asking, he found that it was meaningless, Mrs. Kong feasted the Pan family last night, and he couldn't leave.
Yi's mother said to wait for a while, but Kong Lanyuan waited for more than two hours, Yi Xuansheng hadn't come back yet, just when he wanted to go to the street to find it, Yun Han came and hurriedly said:
"When I was patrolling the streets with people to search for suspicious characters, I found this at a fork in the road on Nanhua Road." As he spoke, he handed over a small bag of loose beads and a bag of chestnut cakes that had been trampled flat.
Kong Lanvain saw the color of the bead and recognized it as the East Pearl, the only one in Shanghai! Looking at the bag of chestnut cake again, the bad feeling soared instantly, pushing away Yun Han and rushing out.
