Qingluan, who was separated from the paper kite soldiers, adjusted his mood and went out, and it didn't take long for him to sneak into the outer courtyard, where a few little maids were doing things and chatting.

Before she got closer, Qingluan heard the little girl's crisp voice: "Sister Lotus Ye has been injured by Her Royal Highness the Princess for the third time this month." "But no, Her Royal Highness the princess likes to smash things when she is angry, but the people who are waiting in it are Sister Lotus Leaves." Another somewhat coquettish voice answered.

"I heard that Concubine Lan gave Her Royal Highness the princess two maidservants today, could it be that she is replacing Sister Lotus..." A maid who seemed to be a little older hurriedly interrupted the little maid's words, "Sister Lotus said, it's just that Concubine Lan arranged the two maidservants to Her Royal Highness in order to appease Aunt Zizhi." ”

"Heshui is right, I saw the two maids brought by my grandmother outside today, they are very timid, I'm afraid they won't please Her Royal Highness the Princess." It was another maid's voice, which also let Qingluan know that the slightly older maid was originally called Heshui.

What a strange name, Qingluan couldn't help muttering.

After squatting for a while, seeing that they were chatting about something, Qingluan sighed and appeared in front of several people, she raised her head timidly, "I've seen a few sisters." "I don't know what to think, the maid is actually called sister, Qingluan remembers that it seems that the maid also has a grade, a little maid like her who has just entered the palace, she has to call any maid when she sees it! Sister! Sister!!

"You are?" The maid named Lotus Water saw Qingluan with a raw face, and suddenly thought of something and smiled slightly, "You are the maidservant girl given by Concubine Lan, right?" ”

"Yes!" Qingluan replied timidly and hurriedly.

Seeing her like this, several maids glanced at each other, and Heshui looked at Qingluan and lowered his voice: "What's your name?" "Qingluan." Qingluan replied crisply, seeing that Heshui's brows were furrowed, he hurriedly explained: "Her Royal Highness the princess has not given Qingluan a name yet. "The maid who has entered the palace recognizes the new master, and the new master will give her a new name.

Of course, a few maids knew that Her Royal Highness the princess was losing her temper today, but they didn't even bother to pay attention to the names of these two maidservants.

Suddenly, there was a little more sympathy and contempt in his eyes when he looked at Qingluan.

Qingluan didn't seem to notice everyone's eyes at all, and her little face fell: "Her Royal Highness the princess has a big temper today, Qingluan can't understand, Her Royal Highness the princess is so beautiful, why does Her Royal Highness the prince dislike Her Royal Highness?" As if he couldn't figure it out, his brows furrowed in confusion, "Could it be that there is someone more beautiful than Her Royal Highness the Princess?" ”

Seeing her like this, He Shui laughed eating, "Of course there is, Her Royal Highness the Princess is beautiful, but the first beauty of our Shun Empire is not Her Royal Highness the Princess." Qingluan suddenly looked at her in surprise, and opened her mouth slightly: "Is there really someone more beautiful than Her Royal Highness the Princess?" ”

When the other people saw her surprised look, they couldn't help laughing, "I can't lie to you, the number one beauty in our Shun Empire is the Changning County Lord." ”

Lord of Changning?! Qingluan quickly thought about it in his mind for a while, but found that there was no such person in the information of the stronghold Xiao Er.

"Is this Changning County Lord really that beautiful?" Speaking of this topic, a maid on the other side couldn't help but insert the topic, the county lord of Changning is not well-known in the Shun Empire, but the palace maids in the palace know the concubine of the prince.

"Beautiful!" He Shui and another maid who had obviously seen the county lord of Changning answered at the same time, their eyes revealing amazement and obsession, "Although He Shui is illiterate, when he saw the county lord of Changning, he understood the words "beautiful as a fairy." ”

Another maid nodded with her approval, but then showed a little regret: "It's a pity..."

"It's a pity?" Qingluan looked at her with curiosity and yearning.

When she said her pity, Qingluan obviously noticed the pity and pity in the eyes of the other maids, and suddenly became a little curious.

"Hey, this Changning County Lord went crazy a few months ago." A maid sighed and said.

"Crazy?!" Qingluan and the other little maids opened their eyes wide at the same time, huh? Lose your marbles?!? Meow meow? Qingluan felt that there were a lot of crows flying over his head!! "Yes, a few months ago, the county lord of Changning had a high fever, and then after he woke up, he went crazy, which was terrifying." The big girl sighed and said.

"I don't know if it's burned and confused, it's so decent, hey."

"Crazy?" Qingluan tilted his head, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, but his face was full of puzzlement and curiosity: "Could it be that the county lord of Changning has forgotten who he is?" "Not really." He Shui shook his head and took over the topic, "The county lord of Changning remembers who she is, but she keeps talking about Chang Heng, Chang Heng, this question, the county lord of Changning said that Chang Heng is the king of the south who was crowned by His Majesty." He Shui frowned and sighed: "But, but how can we have a king of the south in this Shun Empire?" ”

King of the South?

"Don't say anything about King Nan, this Chang Heng name has never existed." Another maid answered.

"Yes, I don't know what evil this Changning County Lord has fallen into, and he imagined this King of the South?"

"It's a pity, this first beauty of the Shun Empire was ruined like this." A few maids lamented that the beauty of the appearance of the county lord of Changning, even if several princes couldn't help but be tempted, but since she went crazy, no one has paid attention to her.

Qingluan's thoughts flickered, suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and pretended to be unintentional: "Then, apart from the county lord of Changning, is there anyone more beautiful than Her Royal Highness the princess?" "Men love beauty, Qingluan thought, that virtuous county lord, it must not be bad.

"This..."He Shui thought about it when he heard this, then looked around cautiously, and then whispered: "Actually, that virtuous county lord is no worse than Her Royal Highness the princess." "Sure enough!

"It's not just good." A straight-talking maid said directly, "That virtuous county lord is probably on par with the county lord of Changning." After saying that, he seemed to realize something and covered his mouth.

"You, be quiet, if people can hear it, there will be your good fruit to eat." Seeing her like this, Heshui said helplessly.

Several people glanced at the maid with a little sympathy, and the eldest maid shook her head helplessly: "It's no secret that Her Royal Highness the princess hates that Xianmin County Lord, but I really can't figure out how this Xianmin County Lord is born more and more beautiful." "No, when I saw her a few years ago, she was only that old." A maid compared the height of her shoulders, "The dark skin is small and timid, and I can't even speak clearly when I see Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

"But look at it now, even Her Royal Highness the princess is standing beside her, and she has been compared."

Qingluan's eyes flashed, and he raised his dazed and ignorant face slightly: "Was the Xianmin County Lord very timid before?" ”

"Yes, I don't dare to look at people at all, I keep my head down wherever I go, even the maids of Jingguo Mansion dare to bully her." A few maids obviously often discuss these topics in private, and it is very easy to say these things at this time.

Why does this plot feel a little familiar?

Qingluan thought for a while, and pretended to speak unintentionally: "Has the Xianmin County Lord been seriously ill?" ”

"Serious illness?" Several people glanced at each other and shook their heads slightly, some didn't understand why they asked this topic, but one of the maids thought about it, and said with some uncertainty: "I heard the grandmother in the palace say that the county lord Xianmin seems to have fallen into the water when he was thirteen years old, and he has been seriously ill for a long time to cultivate his body in Yuanhe Village." ”

Qingluan frowned, why did she always feel that something was a little weird.

Why is this plot so familiar? What kind of virtuous county lord is that, can't he be reborn?
