Chapter 017: The Trouble of the Elbow Ribs

After the death of a person, the Lord of Yama assigned the little ghost to escort his soul home to Xie Zao for the last goodbye.

And this soul is the so-called 'disaster', and whoever touches it will 'suffer'.

Wan Guifei said: "Ask Si to prepare Xifeng wine and enshrine it in the mourning hall of the concubine, and once the time passes, no one is allowed to enter and leave the Guande Palace, as well as the dormitory of the concubine." As for the finished clothes of the day after tomorrow......"

After all the preparations that need to be made, it's time to pick someone to follow......

In the line of sight, Wan Guifei lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes were staggered, reflected in the skylight, which looked extraordinarily deep, Ju Ning's heart sank, and she pushed Jianzhan in her hand and handed it to Wan Guifei.

"Lady."

The thin little hands reveal a calm rhyme.

Naturally, Concubine Wan's eyes were tactful, and she slashed from Ju Ning's hand to her face.

I don't know what kind of thoughts Wan Guifei has surging in the short time.

I saw her Shi Shiran hook her lips, "I see that you still understand the rules these days, and you will serve me on the day you become a servant." ”

I thought that it would take some words, but now I can see my father and them without much effort, and Ju Ning naturally can't ask for it.

But in the end, it can't be too exposed, lest the bamboo basket be empty, and the joy will be in vain.

Ju Ning pressed his trembling throat and knelt down, "The slave and maid have been doing some rough work in the palace since they came, and the slave and maid have never seen such a scene, and they are afraid that they will make mistakes and omissions when the time comes. ”

Wan Guifei just smiled, "Everyone has the first time, and you don't need to put the coffin in the funeral, just stand by and watch, what is there to see." ”

That's it.

Ju Ning couldn't find any more excuses, and said that he retreated to a wall and reverted to his previous silent appearance.

After Wan Guifei took a nap, she withdrew everyone, Ju Ning walked slowly towards the duty room, and some spring soft waves leaked from the leaf tendons, circulating on her face, brushing her mouth, showing more and more shallow laugh lines.

"Gu Ling's service is very interested."

The delicate throat and the long tone of the voice pulled out the light words.

Ju Ning stepped over and saw a stream of five-colored silk flowers walking far away in the corridor, and the skirt edged with small beads rose and fell like water waves.

Ju Ning half-closed his eyes, "Jian Ling's waiting." ”

The tone is not agitated or followed, with a pair of even, gentle eyes under the willow eyebrows, very smoky, watery, light lotus and shallow wind bones.

But people, the donkey is not upside down, the face looks bright and decent, who knows how to bury the inside?

Jian Xi thought so, and the lightly pressed eyebrows quickly stretched, "The day after tomorrow, you will go to the Guande Hall with the lady to perform a ceremony, although the lady told you that you don't need to do anything, but in the end it represents the faΓ§ade of the lady, you can be cautious and careful in your words and deeds, and you can't make mistakes." ”

Ju Ning said that he could save it, but he still looked like he was pleasing to the eyes.

Jian Xi's eyes were like knives, and he quickly swept around Ju Ning's face, "I don't say this for you to save, but for you to remember." Our lady is kind, look at you suffering these things, so I pity you, don't let yourself serve yourself because of this, and become more and more shapeless. ”

Ju Ning said: "I have always kept in mind the kindness of the lady to me, and I dare not forget it, and I don't think I will sweep the lady's face." ”

However, this did not convince Jianxi, "I'll tell you about it, I've been working with you these days, I see that your eyes are very dishonest, the day after tomorrow's uniforms, the ministers are in decline, so many pairs of eyes are staring at it, and there are officials in front of you, if you look like a mouse again, believe it or not, I am the first to ask someone to pull you into the Imperial City Division, and you two eyes will be picked!" ”

In fact, he had expected to be beaten and killed like this, and Ju Ning really thought about whether to endure it.

After all, no matter how you say it, Concubine Wan doesn't treat her as her own, she is too presumptuous, she will always attract people's attention, and I am afraid that she will attract the disaster of killing.

But then I thought about it, everyone in the world is bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, if I blindly bow down, don't be a traitor and don't find out one or two, but take my life first.

So he raised his face and smiled, "I didn't know that Jian Lingshi had such great ability, and he was involved in the Imperial City Division." ”

With a light sentence, the color changed when he said it, and when he came back to his senses, he snorted and sneered, "Those palm lamps in the lower room said that you are not good at words on weekdays, and you always do things alone, but in my opinion, Gu Lingling's teeth are very sharp." ”

These words were originally intended to make Ju Ning, who was meticulous, feel empty, but as a result, Ju Ning raised his eyebrows, revealing a pure feeling, "How did Jian Lingshi say this?" I'm just talking about things and feeling from the bottom of my heart. ”

smiled again, and said kindly: "I know, you are worried, but you have to believe in our lady's vision, after all, she doesn't say it, look at me recently, I still understand the rules." Since the ladies think so, what can we talk about as slaves? ”

These words completely choked the stream, and I couldn't speak anymore.

Seeing this, Ju Ning bowed his head, turned around and walked away from the verandah without looking back.

The day after that, Ju Ning thought that there would be some trouble, but she didn't think that if nothing happened, she waited for Concubine Wan with her, and in a blink of an eye, she came to the day of the finished service.

Because he was about to be buried in the coffin, Ju Ningyin got up when he was ready, and led a group of servants who were holding the clothes to stand silently outside the palace of Concubine Wan.

At this time, the sky was cold, the crab shell was faintly blue, and a large thick fog covered it, looming the rows of lights under the corridor.

It looked very ethereal, fairyland-like, Ju Ning was in it, but he only felt cold, stomped his feet, and let the frozen toes bleed back a little, as for the bigger movements, it was not possible.

After living for eighteen years, this is the first time Ju Ning has been subjected to such cold.

But when she turned her head and looked at the waiters behind her, her fingers holding the tray were in the wind, and her faces were as stiff as frozen pears, worse than her.

What else did she have to feel sorry for?

However, Ju Ning leaned towards the edge of the door, letting the fire in the hall bow her face.

Through a door, the incense of Sydney sandalwood flowed into her nose, instantly outlining in Ju Ning's mind the scene of prosperity and grace when she used to be a maid.

At that time, I was still picky, and I felt that Sydney sandalwood was too thick and heavy, not as clean and elegant as Lan Gui.

Now, let alone incense, even the clothes on my body are still someone else's.

Touching the cuffs, the honeysuckle pattern with a little thread bloomed in the fingertips with a clear warp and weft, Ju Ning bent his frozen fingers, gently hooked the thread, and with a flip of his wrist, he tore off the thread.

At the moment of the break, the partition door was finally opened, and a ray of candlelight was released, illuminating Ju Ning's eyes.

Ju Ning turned over, and just as he bent his knees, he heard Yu's high-hearted throat, "Come in." ”

This month revives everything, but the weather is still cold, so the hall is constantly supplied with red snail charcoal, and the moment Ju Ning enters the door, the room is full of fragrant fragrance, and it is cold on the tip of his nose that is frozen hard outside, and he sneezes.
