Chapter 049: Peach's Death
readx;?“ I understand, after cutting off the road of Xiaoyuanzi, if Aunt Yue wants to transport the silver two out of the palace again, she must find another person. In this way, the more she moves, the more she is exposed, and the more likely she is to be caught.www.biquge.info Yun Yao immediately understood what Su Xin meant.
"I'll just say you're a smart man. Su Xin nodded and said with a smile, "Now...... Have you thought about the deal between the two of us?"
"I'll make a deal with you. Yun Yao didn't hesitate this time, and spoke directly, "I had no intention of fighting, but Aunt Yue won't let me go, and one more ally in this palace will be less dangerous." ”
"Deal. Su Xin nodded, "However, smart Yun Yao, you still have to think about it, how do you explain this pile of pastries that I don't eat to Lu Yingquan." ”
"There's no need to explain, you've already eaten. Yun Yao smiled, wrapped a small half of the pastry, and then threw it in a vase in Su Xin's room before speaking, "When we leave, you throw it away, there are some things, the more you explain, the more loopholes there are, it's better not to let Yingquan know." ”
"Yingquan is really lucky, to have such a sister as you who really thinks about her. Su Xin sighed, "Looking at you, I feel more and more sad, and I hope that the tragedy of my year will not be staged on you." ”
"What are you talking about, talking so speculatively, are you talking bad about me while I'm not there?" Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Lu Yingquan walked in from outside with a small bottle in his hand.
"Yes, if you don't come, we'll be running out of pastries. Yun Yao said, "Why is it so slow to ask you to get a drink?"
"I can't remember the last time you buried your wine under a tree, I searched for a long time to find it. Lu Yingquan said, then took a few teacups from the table next to him, opened the small bottle, and poured exactly three cups.
"You little fool. Yun Yao couldn't help laughing, "This flower wine is sweet and delicious, Sister Suxin can taste it, and it can be regarded as a celebration of the rest of our lives." ”
The three of them were talking and laughing in Su Xin's room, time passed in a flash, and most of the cakes specially prepared by Lu Yingquan for Su Xin were also eaten into Yingquan's own stomach.
After being full of wine and food, Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan quit their hearts and returned to their own houses.
Thinking that the days of rest were really short, and they would have to get up early tomorrow on an errand, the two sighed in unison, and then washed and went to sleep.
It is already the season of flowers in March, the flowers of the peach orchard in the palace are blooming very well, and some of the masters in the palace love to eat the peach shortbread and peach blossom cake, and some love peach blossom wine, so some palace people who can please the palace people think of always preparing these things to please the masters.
Therefore, the work of picking peach blossoms also falls on the third-class palace maids.
In the peach orchard, the pink and tender peach blossoms are in full bloom one after another, and the delicate and delicate petals exude a burst of fragrance in the spring breeze.
The branches are luxuriant, and the garden is full of spring.
"The peach is dying, scorching its bloom, the ancients are honest and do not deceive me......" Yun Yao picked the petals while chanting poems to praise the scenery in the peach orchard.
"The son is home, IKEA is ......," Lu Yingquan said beside her, "This is a poem reciting the bride's young and beautiful beauty, is it ...... Yun Yao, do you want to get married?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! I'm just seeing the beauty of this peach blossom and praising a few words, where do you think so much. Yun Yao pretended to be angry and slapped Lu Yingquan a few times, then lowered her head and deliberately ignored her.
But Yingquan didn't see that the moment Yun Yao lowered her head, her face flushed slightly.
Gu Qingming's long figure flashed in her mind, and when she remembered what he had said to her on the wall of the Tangli Flower Courtyard, her heart jumped like a deer crashing.
The word "marry", she has never thought of it since she entered the palace, but now because of Gu Qingming, she has rekindled her hope.
"What are you doing blindly? You have read a lot of books, and you can recite poetry? You are not a third-class palace maid like us. Ning Lan sarcastically on the side.
"Forget it, Ning Lan, people just praised the peach blossoms a few words, and they didn't hinder you. Hongxiao said, "But when it comes to getting married, I heard one thing, do you want to know about General Gu?"
"General Gu, what's wrong with him?" Yun Yao immediately asked as soon as she heard Hong Xiao's mouth mention Gu Qingming.
"What does General Gu have to do with you, why are you reacting so much?" Ning Lan said, and then asked Hong Xiao, "What the hell is going on?"
"Yesterday, I followed Aunt Yue to the Internal Affairs Office to get the case silver back, and I heard two sisters say on the way that General Gu arrived in Beijing yesterday and entered the palace to report to the emperor, and he didn't say anything else, only let the emperor promise him one condition. Hong Xiao said as he deliberately sold the guanzi, but he was silent halfway through the conversation.
"What conditions, what conditions, you should say it quickly!" Ning Lan pushed Hongxiao and asked her to speak quickly.
Yun Yao had been listening to Hong Xiao's words, and her mind had already become numb. Thinking of Gu Qingming's words, he was both expectant and nervous, he really didn't have an oath, did he really mention it to the emperor?
"General Gu asked the emperor for a woman and asked the emperor to marry him and the woman. "Do you know who that woman is?"
Hong Xiao said, stopped again, and looked at Yun Yao, but saw Yun Yao staring at him seriously, so he asked again: "Yun Yao, do you also want to know?"
A trace of unnaturalness flashed on Yun Yao's face, and after a while, he smiled and said, "General Gu is the hero in the hearts of our palace maids, and what you are interested in, I am naturally also interested." ”
"I know you're interested!" Hongxiao said, "But I won't tell anyone this news easily, you have to show sincerity!"
After Hongxiao finished speaking, he rubbed his fingers to express his meaning.
"Cut, you can't make money on our sisters, right? Our money is the same, given to you, how can we live this month? Besides, who knows if this news is true or not, I don't want to hear it!" Ning Lan saw that Hongxiao reached out to ask for money, so she snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"If you don't listen, you won't listen, I won't say it!" Hongxiao was also angry, turned around and planned to leave.
Seeing this, Yun Yao hurriedly grabbed Hongxiao, took out a little broken silver from his sleeve, and said, "Just tell me one person, I don't have much silver, so I can only give you this." ”
"Well, for your sake, I'll tell you. Hongxiao looked at the silver in his hand, very happy, and then said, "The woman that General Gu asked the emperor for is said to be the daughter of a general, and it seems to be a ...... Daughter of the late Pingnan general Wu Zhen. ”
Suddenly, Yun Yao's brain felt like a firecracker had exploded inside, booming, and she couldn't hear anything else at all.
Hongxiao took the silver and left, but Yun Yao still stood in place.
Daughter of the late Pingnan general Wu Zhen...... A few words of herself echoed in her mind, and the original expectation in her heart fell to the bottom in an instant.
Sure enough, only the daughter of Jiangmen can be worthy of him, and what qualifications does a little palace maid like her have to expect his favor?
Yun Yao, Yun Yao, don't you think he saved you, or he likes you? Even if you want to repay him for saving his life, it depends on whether he looks down on you or not!
The thoughts in my heart changed a few times, but I finally stabilized my mind, didn't say anything, and continued to pick peach blossoms.
Yingquan on the side looked at Yun Yao, and always felt a little strange, today's Yun Yao is very different from the past, even if he is so interested in General Gu's affairs for no reason, he also took out money to inquire, this is not Yun Yao's low-key and troublesome style.
"Yun Yao, should you be...... Like General Gu, right?" Lu Yingquan leaned into Yun Yao's ear and asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, Yun Yao was so frightened that the basket in her hand fell to the ground, and half of the peach blossoms that she had finally picked were spilled.
Yun Yao looked at Yingquan with some shock, and her heart wandered.
She has always been secretive about this matter, no one has ever said it, but it was so easy for Yingquan to see it? If a careless person like Yingquan can also see it, then does Ning Lan and Hongxiao also know?
And her secret......
"It can't be true, right? I was joking just now!" Lu Yingquan looked at Yun Yao's expression and couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's nothing!" Yun Yao hurriedly covered Yingquan's mouth and said, "I'...... I'm just grateful to General Gu, do you remember the time when Xiangqin pushed me down from the tower of Guanri in Chuxiu Palace? That time it was General Gu who saved me, so I ......"
"You scared me to death, I really thought you were ......" Lu Yingquan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after listening to Yun Yao's explanation, and said, "It turns out that you always refuse to tell me how you survived from Xiangqin's clutches, it turns out that there is still this reason." But...... General Gu is married, you should be happy for him. ”
"Yes, I'm happy for him. Yun Yao smiled and nodded, smiling a little reluctantly, but Yingquan got Yun Yao's answer, so he didn't pay attention anymore, and he didn't find it.
Yun Yao silently picked up the basket on the ground, took the peach blossoms that had not fallen into the soil and put them in the basket, then got up and continued to pick flowers.
Yingquan is right, she should be happy for him, after all, he is a big hero, the god of war of Ningguo, not a little palace maid like her can be matched.
Thinking like this, Yun Yao quickly put aside the selfish distractions in her mind and concentrated on her work.
The peach orchard is still full of flowers, the peach blossoms are still scorching and open, and the palace maids around are a little joking and playful, but Yun Yao has no intention of watching.
IKEA is no longer her hope.
The kindness of the past may have disappeared in this deception, and from now on, she no longer has to look forward to entering the General's Mansion, raising eyebrows with him, and being in harmony, but should stay in this palace and continue to live a precarious life with Yingquan.
