Ah Ling followed her words and said in a daze: "Qingfeng has the grace of knowing the slave maid...... If it weren't for Sister Qingfeng's promotion of slaves and maids to serve Niangniang, maybe the slaves and maids would still be doing the work of rough subordinates. ”

Xue Hainiang's words changed. The thin lips raised lightly: "The grace of knowing the encounter, since the spring reciprocates, I have always admired the person who knows the kindness and wants to repay it." ”

Ah Ling scratched his head as if he was embarrassed, and said, "You have been raised, and the slave and maid are not as good as you said. ”

Xue Hainiang pulled the low collapse on the side and motioned for her to sit down for the time being.

Ah Ling knew that Xue Hainiang had never liked to be polite with her, and she did not shirk it, and after sitting down, Xue Hainiang took an ivory comb and gently combed her thick black hair.

Ah Ling looked at Xue Hainiang and didn't pay attention to her for a long time, only blindly taking care of her black hair, which was not frivolous, and felt that her existence was a little redundant for a while, so she stepped forward and said, "Concubine Niangniang, why don't I take care of it for you...... Sister Qingfeng had praised the slave maid for being able to comb her hair very well. ”

Xue Hainiang teased, "I don't go out to see people today, I don't need to be so exquisite," said that, she took a hosta and pulled up all her hair, "If you are really idle and panicked, go out to inquire about that Xie Huan Xie housekeeper for me." ”

Ah Ling's eyes lit up when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, "Then dare to be kind, the slave will go outside to inquire about those little girls later." ”

Xue Hainiang bowed her head happily, she really didn't want Ah Ling to nest in this house like this, but in fact, no one in this mansion was willing to take the initiative to really have a relationship with Ah Ling, she knew that it was more or less because of her.

Madame Liu regarded her as a thorn in the flesh, and she would not allow the servants in this mansion to associate with Ah Ling.

Yes, in the two days of staying in the palace, Ah Ling must have suffered hatred.

After finally sending Ah Ling to go outside for activities, Xue Hainiang stayed quietly in the pavilion and waited for Juan'er.

About an hour later, Juan'er rushed in, her face full of joyful smiles. As soon as she came in, she stepped forward to owe Xue Hainiang, and then said to Xue Hainiang in detail, "I went to ask the aunts who served the ladies to clean and bathe, only to know that the Liu family had not officially slept in bed, only once, that time I also listened to some girls in the house, and said that the palace was drunk once, and happened to meet Mrs. Liu in the back garden, and Mrs. Liu didn't know what method she used, so she asked the prince to go with her sedan chair." ”

Xue Hainiang asked again, "How long has it been since now?"

Juan'er said: "It's only a month." ”

Xue Hainiang said coldly, "The time is right." ”

Juan'er seemed to understand: "Since Mrs. Liu is pregnant now, she must be the prince who served that time......"

Xue Hainiang seemed to smile, "I can't say this......" She didn't say it really, and even Juan'er looked confused. Xue Hainiang paused, smiled and praised: "You did a good job this time." It deserves to be commended. ”

Juan'er smiled, "These are all things that slaves and maids should do, where can they be called praises." She paused, and then said: "But I beg the side concubine not to only regard Sister Ah Ling as her own person, and not to take Juan'er in her eyes at all." ”

Xue Hainiang smiled secretly in her heart, and said in her heart, where are you comparable to Ah Ling......

Although she doesn't fully trust Ah Ling, compared to Juan'er, Ah Ling can be called a confidant.

For the time being, in the mansion of King Qinghui, the only person she can trust is Ah Ling.

But her face was still smiling like a flower, with an excellent style, "I have been friends with Ah Ling for many years, and she treats me loyally......" Xue Hainiang lowered her head slightly, with a little longing on her face.

Juan'er stepped forward cautiously, picked up the mink velvet hanging on the screen and walked towards Xue Hainiang, "But the slave maid heard that you have been serving in front of Your Majesty since you entered the palace......"

Xue Hainiang let her put the big coat on her shoulder, and smiled lightly, "It's just hearsay, how can it be trusted?"

Juan'er was silent and said no more.

The maid stepped in from the outer courtyard at the right time, bowed to Xue Hainiang and said, "Concubine Niangniang, Mrs. Yun has come to visit." ”

Xue Hainiang hurriedly smiled and said, "Hurry up and invite her in." ”

The maid hurriedly welcomed Mrs. Yun into the inner mansion, and the Yun family was still dressed in decent snow satin, and the white and flawless dress was embroidered with a very inconspicuous plum blossom outline with silver thread, just like her demure and low-key temperament.

Yun's Shi Shiran bowed, and said that he came to greet her.

"Madame Yun doesn't need to be so polite. Xue Hainiang smiled lightly and motioned to Juan'er to hurry up and prepare a soft seat for the Yun family.

Yun smiled decently, "Although the side concubine Niangniang entered the mansion later than me, she can be ranked above us, and the prince instructed that she should not break the rules." ”

Her voice of the prince's instructions made Xue Hainiang particularly puzzled.

Xue Hainiang had some doubts about this before, although the people in this mansion didn't dare to be too enthusiastic about her because of Mrs. Liu, but they didn't dare to treat her poorly, except for Xie Huan, who claimed to be the housekeeper, maybe because of Mrs. Liu's intention, he deliberately stumbled on her, but he was just playing tricks, and he didn't dare to be too presumptuous.

If the mansion had expected that Nan Shuke would not treat her well, Mrs. Liu would have already relied on the power she had at hand to send her to a remote corner of the mansion, how could she provide her with such delicious food and drink, and placed her in a good location today.

Xue Hainiang lowered her eyelids slightly, and her fingertips subconsciously rubbed her chin, "Mrs. Yun knows where His Highness has gone, and she hasn't been able to see His Highness for many days." pretending to be aggrieved and melancholy, it really vividly explains the role of a resentful woman.

Mrs. Yun looked embarrassed, "Lord Wang, he has always been like this...... He rarely stays in the mansion, and even when he comes, he rarely sets foot in the back mansion. She paused, as if she remembered something, and suddenly said: "Chinese New Year's Eve the night before, the prince brought back a woman with outstanding appearance and flamboyant temperament, and seemed to attach great importance to her appearance...... But then the woman disappeared for some reason, we were very curious about this, Mrs. Liu sent someone to investigate, only to learn that this person was a friend of the prince in the rivers and lakes, and left the house the next day. ”

As soon as she heard the words on the eve of Chinese New Year's Eve, Xue Hainiang knew that the person who called Nan Shuke brought into the mansion was Beichen Langyu.

It's not surprising that no one in this mansion knows the identity of Beichen Langwen, with Beichen's temperament of letting her favorite sister like her life, she must treat Beichen Langwen as a baby-like protector, and how can she expose her identity as the county lord of the Northern Dynasty in a foreign country.

Her identity is sensitive, if there is a case that attracts ill-intentioned villains, it must be something that Beichen Rang does not want to see.
