Chapter 19: A slave and a maid should be like a slave and a maid
Chen Jiaojiao twisted her body and rubbed her eyes to get up. It was dark outside, and I didn't know what time it was.
She yawned blankly and looked around.
Oh, Yongming Palace.
Yongming Palace!
She was half awake in an instant, and there was no sign of him in the hall.
There was no one outside, she pursed her lips and smacked her mouth, counted the unfinished recitals on the table, and a bunch of them, thinking that she was in trouble again.
Before she could be annoyed, the door was pushed open, and as soon as the two met their sight, Fifteen ran over.
"Your Majesty, Princess Zhaoren, please come over for dinner, saying that she will cook herself."
Qi Yan nodded and turned around, "Follow." ”
Chen Jiaojiao was stunned and tilted her head in confusion. He went to Chen Zhen, what did she do with her.
I don't know if his figure melts into the darkness and is extremely cold.
The voice was not the same as it had been two days before, as if the day she had stood in the snake pond was even more distant than that day.
She bit her lip and obediently followed.
I walked outside and saw her face clearly by the light of the fifteenth, and I gasped and didn't dare to say more.
Boudoir fun, don't look at indecency.
He advised himself to hang his head and go forward.
Chen Jiaojiao followed behind Qi Yan, he didn't look back once, and he didn't bother to give her more, even if she was sluggish, she felt that something was wrong.
Walking to the Hexian Palace, Chen Zhen couldn't hold back for a moment when he saw the smile on her face, but he still couldn't help but step forward, "Your Majesty is here, sit down." Jiaojiao's sister is also here, sit. ”
Chen Zhen took Chen Jiaojiao's hand and was about to ask her to sit down.
Chen Jiaojiao didn't hide, she looked like a sister affectionately.
"Stand up."
Qi Yan spoke, and there was a sudden silence in the room.
Chen Jiaojiao hadn't sat down yet, and straightened up when she heard a pause.
Thinking about it in his heart, what happened to him, was he angry that she fell asleep in the afternoon?
Seeing that the relationship between the two seemed to be much more estranged, Chen Zhen was the happiest one, and he didn't want to pretend to say something nice, so he sat directly beside Qi Yan.
"Your Majesty tastes this, I heard that Your Majesty likes sweet, I made peach blossom cake with my own hands."
Chen Jiaojiao stood with Agarwood left and right, and she realized that she was still a maidservant and wanted to serve the masters.
She sighed quietly, and no one cared, she complained in her heart.
He doesn't like sweet, he won't eat it at all.
But the next moment she saw him move his chopsticks, bite his bite, and there was no reluctance on his face.
Okay, Chen Jiaojiao shrugged her shoulders and hung her head quietly.
In her afterglow, Qi Yan could feel her no matter what, and the irritability in her heart was even worse.
He reached out and knocked on the cup, "Pour water." ”
Chen Jiaojiao looked over, and his attitude completely regarded her as a maidservant, and she was no longer the same.
She lifted the kettle and poured water, standing quietly to his right with her hands down.
No wonder he was originally such an identity, but she didn't recognize it clearly.
The smile on Chen Zhen's face couldn't help it, he covered his lips and coughed twice, "What's wrong with my sister's face?" Which eunuch and maid played like this? It's not frivolous. ”
Face? Chen Jiaojiao touched her face and didn't find anything wrong.
Looking at Chen Zhen's strange eyes, she walked to the mirror only to find that her face was half painted.
Like a kitten who had lost half of her face, she puffed out her mouth, most likely of which he drew while she was sleeping.
"I'm not a good person, my sister doesn't have to worry."
Qi Yan's hand holding the vegetables froze, and his eyebrows were lightly raised.
Suddenly I wanted to look at it, and the expression on her face must be very interesting.
But he didn't look at her even when he turned a cold face.
"Sister can't be playful, frivolous. The person who painted you is not in a proper shape, and you can't be so ........ in the palace."
Chen Jiaojiao endured and endured, but she still couldn't hold back, she laughed out loud, and the bracelet on her hand that bit her lower lip and laughed sounded.
Chen Zhen was stunned for a moment, looked at her, and glanced at him with an expressionless face, never understanding what was so funny about this.
"What my sister taught me is that my sister remembers!"
She laughed behind her, and Qi Yan bent her fingers and buckled the table.
With a click, Chen Jiaojiao restrained her smile.
Chen Zhen also felt his coldness, and didn't dare to say more, so he ate quietly.
Chen Jiaojiao's head didn't stop on the side, she was thinking about where she had provoked him again, why did he suddenly change.
The two people at the table put down their chopsticks one after another.
"Your Majesty, let me walk with you. It was regarded as a meal, and the plum blossoms at the back also bloomed. ”
Chen Zhen smiled and took the sleeve stove from Agarwood's hand, and posed for it while learning to be naughty.
As soon as the comparison came out, she felt that she was like a good person, so strange. He quickly withdrew his hand, and seemed to be even more empty-hearted.
Qi Yan stared at her, and the people behind her walked out without saying anything.
Chen Jiaojiao also had to follow, and walked behind the two of them with Agarwood Fifteen.
Chen Zhen deliberately made a big circle from the lotus pond again, and heard some old things from He Shuming on fifteen, and knew the ins and outs.
Now I can't help but despise it in my heart, this deliberate is too obvious.
Chen Jiaojiao naturally knew what she was thinking, and she followed helplessly.
Holding hands behind his back and fifteen gradually walked in, "Inquire about something, have I done anything wrong again, Your Majesty looks like he's angry with me." ”
Fifteen shook her head blankly, "The princess doesn't know, and the minister can't even know." ”
"Are you here in the afternoon, I really ........."
Before he could say a word, he found that the two people in front of him had stopped. His gaze rested on both of them.
Fifteen's reaction was faster than Chen Jiaojiao's, and she quickly pulled away, looking like nothing had happened and wanted to cover it up.
Chen Jiaojiao wrinkled her nose when she hated iron and steel, this child was honest since he was a child, and he had never done anything bad.
Chen Zhen didn't notice the eyes of the three of them, as if he was holding his orchid fingers and picking up a plum blossom to smell it closely, and posed for a long time.
Agarwood coughed, only to realize that no one was looking at her at all.
She glared at Chen Jiaojiao angrily, and whispered to Agarwood.
Agarwood will leave in small steps, and no one will notice.
"Your Majesty, there is a whole plum garden ahead, come and see."
Qi Yan's purpose with her was very simple, he didn't think about it.
Not only to her, but also to herself.
What he had thought about now is uncertain, so he thinks as he goes, and his mind is not on anyone.
Chen Zhen's eyes beside him were dripping around, and when she saw something white not far away, she smiled with satisfaction, and couldn't wait to speed up her pace.
"Ahh
Her screams pierced the long night, and Chen Jiaojiao, who was frightened, trembled, and looked up to find a white shadow flashing, which happened to flash quickly in front of Chen Zhen's feet.
Chen Zhen covered his heart, looked like he was in a heart attack, and fell to Qi Yan, "Your Majesty, there is something, I ....... it."
Qi Yan frowned, turned sideways and stepped aside, he didn't see what it was just now.
But the little thing stopped, and seemed to smell a familiar smell.
"Fatty?"
After seeing it clearly, Chen Jiaojiao whispered uncertainly.
The white cat meowed twice and ran at her, rolling at her feet, exposing her belly, and seemed to miss her very much.
"It's really you! Fatty, I miss you so much, where did you go? ”
Chen Jiaojiao squatted down in surprise and touched its chin.
There's been so much going on these days, and she's looked for it, but she can't find it at all.
Now I see that its white and clean hair is now sparse and yellow, and it is visibly thinner to the naked eye.
She couldn't help but redden, and touched it distressedly.
"Princess!"
Agarwood's shout made everyone's eyes return to Chen Zhen.
Her face turned pale at the moment, and she held the hand of Agarwood and pulled out a smile, "I'm fine, the delicate kitten has finally been found." I still remember that it used to be sticky, and it was always hugged by His Majesty when it went out. ”
The smile on Chen Jiaojiao's face froze, she loved to go out to play with Fat, but she couldn't remember it when she was crazy, so she had to be hugged by him at that time.
Can ....... now
She looked up and glanced at him with a somewhat evasive look.
He looked down at her without any expression.
After a long time, Qi Yan spoke, and he thought about it.
"I ordered you to find this cat, and you found it now?"
Fifteen knelt down all of a sudden, "It's the minister's negligence, please punish Your Majesty." ”
"Twenty boards, go ahead."
Chen Jiaojiao bit her lower lip, looked at fifteen in a daze, stood up without hesitation and said yes.
Is it to beat him on the board?
She hesitantly touched the fat in her hand, not knowing whether to ask for a favor or not.
"Since I have been shocked many times, I have killed him."
"Huh?!"
Chen Zhen grabbed in front of Chen Jiaojiao and spoke, dragging his weak body to kneel, "Your Majesty, this cat is a family member to Jiaojiao, I'm afraid you will hurt Jiaojiao's heart if you do this." Take back your life, Your Majesty! ”
Chen Jiaojiao's pupils trembled, he didn't look at it once, she didn't know if he was serious, or if she just said a few nice words.
Qi Yan frowned and raised his hand impatiently.
The guards around him answered, and walked over to take away the cat in Chen Jiaojiao's hand.
Chen Jiaojiao hugged it fiercely and knelt in the snow in a squatting position.
This time she knelt upright, and it was the first time she knelt down.
"Your Majesty, can you forgive Fat Fat for such a time."
Qi Yan glanced at her, and there was no emotion in his heavy eyes, "No." ”
"Fat relatives will definitely not hurt people."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I ......."
"Shut up!" Chen Jiaojiao raised her voice, and she was more powerful in the empty snow.
She is not willing to accept the low temperament, and she is not willing to suppress it, "If you get cheap, shut up, and the trouble of saving will come out of your mouth." Fat Fat knows my Changhuan Palace, if it really wanders in the palace, why don't you go to me. It's two or three times that it surprises you. ”
"Sister! What nonsense do you say, how do I know. ”
"How do you know why it has a rope around its neck?"
Chen Jiaojiao stretched out her hand to brush away the white hair on her fat neck, raised it and showed it to Qi Yan seriously.
Her little face was serious and sincere, trying to prove herself to him, Qi Yan lowered her eyes and turned away.
Chen Zhen's face turned from red to blue, "You, you slandered, it shocked me, did I do it myself?" ”
"Hey, my sister is right. Isn't this long needle on its hind foot the fault of you? Chen Zhen, I won't nail this long needle to your leg in the future, count me Chen Jiaojiao alive in vain. ”
Her chuckle rang out, and everyone present clearly saw Princess Wen Ning, who was once famous.
When she was ten years old, the birthday banquet opened the door of the palace, and the whole world celebrated, and most of the people present had seen her.
Standing on top of the palace, fireworks bloomed in the girl's smile, the beauty was terrifying, making people look up and forget their breath.
She sprinkled golden beans downward, smiled brightly, and her eyes were fair to everyone.
Everyone scrambled to reach out, but instead of taking the golden bean, it was for her to look at it twice.
That day was deeply engraved in the hearts of many people.
Today, even if she kneels and falls into the dust, she can still be remembered.
Qi Yan didn't speak, and when her expectant eyes returned to him, he spoke, "As a servant girl who contradicts the master, one of them should be punished." Second, without any evidence, slandering the master, should be punished. Three, kill the cat. ”
Chen Jiaojiao's eyes widened in disbelief, this is still called no evidence, is she still slanderous.
She was clearly in front of him.
"What does Your Majesty mean, even if this is what she did, you also covered it up, right?"
"Yes."
Chen Jiaojiao pulled the corners of her lower lip, and there was a bit of bitterness in her smile.
It was getting late, it was getting colder outside, the hem of her skirt was already wet, and her knees were cold to the bone.
But the heart is even colder.
"Your Majesty punish me, don't kill it, I accept any punishment from you."
She raised her eyes to meet his gaze again, but calmly with a disappointed irony.
Qi Yan's inky black pupils shrank suddenly, devouring like an abyss, and the hand behind his back clenched.
"Good. Then you will kneel here, and when I call you up, you will rise again. ”
After saying that, he brushed his sleeves away, and heard her answer loudly behind him.
"Yes!"
