The wound shot by Xiao Xun had actually healed a long time ago, but she still lifted her sleeve to show him the arrow scar left behind.

Lu rewatched it and didn't speak for a long time.

"Actually, it was a little painful at the moment, and it didn't hurt much when the scab formed later, so ......"

"I've had an arrow wound and I know how much it hurts." Lu Zhong suddenly looked up and interrupted her.

Finished, hit the muzzle of the gun.

Lu Zhong gently stroked the scar, looked up at her and said very seriously: "Now that the war is over, the next thing is the negotiation between the two countries." Come back to Beijing with me. ”

"Back to Beijing?" Shen Xinyue was obviously stunned for a moment.

Because she hadn't thought about it for a while.

"The business on the other side of the mine has just begun, and the business in Jin'an Mansion, the most important thing is that my grandmother and little sister are all over there, I have to deal with everything, so I can go with peace of mind, right?"

"I know your temper too well." Lu Zhong smiled bitterly: "The rules and dogma of Kyoto will make you feel uncomfortable, and even make you subconsciously reject Beijing. ”

Shen Xinyue didn't speak.

In that imperial city where a brick can be thrown out and smashed into several princes and nobles, although everyone yearns for it, she is not sensitive.

Now she has a lot of industries under her control, especially iron mines, and it can almost be said that she has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life.

When the time comes, I will find a good family for a few younger sisters, and the life will be free and happy.

But she fell in love with Lu Chong, and if she wanted to be with him, she would have to deal with those deep palace compounds.

Just the thought of dealing with this man with a false smile on his face made her feel that one head was two big.

"Just think it's for me. I know I shouldn't have said that, but I can't feel at ease if I don't marry you in the door. After you get married, I won't stop you from going anywhere you want, okay? ”

Looking at the man in front of him who was not afraid in the face of thousands of enemies, Shen Xinyue actually heard a trace of caution from his words.

After some ideological struggle, she finally nodded: "Okay." ”

When preparing for the return of the class teacher, Shen Xinyue went to see Yang Chuan.

It's only been more than a month, and the whole person's popularity looks quite good, and he can even carry a big knife and play it twice.

"It's all thanks to Brother Zheng, you said that you wanted you as a girl, and when I needed you the most, you left me and ran away, and you are the most unrighteous."

Although he saw the people standing in front of him with all their beards and tails, Yang Chuan still couldn't help but be afraid for a while.

"You hit shit luck, and people didn't catch you. Do you know how much trouble you have stirred up, and you can come back alive and burn high incense. ”

Shen Xinyue smiled and sat down across from him, and when she saw that there was a plate of grapes on the table, she unceremoniously picked up one and put it in her mouth.

"I know you're worried about my safety, big brother, but don't make a stinky face every time you speak, good words will turn bad in your mouth. That's not good. ”

"That's the grapes that Da Liang finally got for me, you eat them lightly, I haven't eaten a few."

Shen Xinyue retaliated and stuffed a few more into her mouth in a row, and then puffed out her cheeks and asked, "By the way, why didn't I see Lao Lu and them?" ”

"There are still so many things in the stockade, except for Da Liang, I sent the rest back."

"Big brother, when the army returns to the court, I will return to Kyoto with Lu Chong."

Yang Chuan's crossed Erlang's legs quickly changed, and then said casually: "You are not too young, if someone can want you, hurry up and marry honestly." Besides, Lu Zhong can stand your stinky temper. ”

Shen Xinyue didn't care: "You go with me, Kyoto is full of gold, and our brothers and sisters will make a lot of money." ”

"I can't get it anymore. Besides, there's such a big mine waiting for me to guard for you. Without you staring, in the future, my brothers and I in the village will not be fragrant and spicy, and we will do whatever we want. ”

Although he knew that he would most likely refuse, Shen Xinyue was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart.

Zheng Chenyan and Yang Chuan were sent away one after another, and Shen Xinyue and Lu Zhong were also ready to return to Beijing.

In the palace thousands of miles away from Quyang, because the two armies of Zhenbei and Zhenxi are about to return to the court, all the palaces are very happy.

Different from the perfunctory posture of other palaces on the surface, Concubine De's Dexin Palace was very happy from top to bottom, and even walked with the wind.

"King Chen won the battle, and Niangniang said that there were rewards from all over the palace. Each person will be rewarded twice the monthly money, and two more dishes will be added to each room tonight. ”

Hearing such good news, everyone cheered loudly.

The aunt in charge hurriedly spoke out to stop: "Let's just have fun in the palace, Niangniang has always been low-key, don't gossip about the master." ”

Shen Yingyue received the reward with the other palace maids, and was about to do something, when suddenly the little girl guarding the door stopped her: "Sister Xiaoyue, someone is looking for you." ”

Since Shen Yingyue came to Dexin Palace, none of the previous palace maids had any contact, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised when she heard that someone was looking for her.

According to the position pointed by the little girl, she turned around a courtyard wall and saw the green willows waiting there.

Now that she has gone to the palace of the concubine, I heard that she has also become a big palace maid in charge.

"Sister Cuiliu." Shen Yingyue saluted her.

Cuiliu waited for her to finish this ceremony, and then came over to stop her in a fake way: "Sister Xiaoyue and I don't have to be so polite. Since I was transferred to serve in the concubine's dormitory, I haven't found a chance to see you, and then I heard that you were transferred to Dexin Palace, how about it, no one embarrass you, right? ”

Shen Yingyue shook her head: "Everything is fine here. ”

Cuiliu touched the brocade handkerchief in her hand, frowned and said: "It's just an inconspicuous little girl in a sewing room, anyone can command twice, and besides, this palace is used to holding high and stepping low, how can I not know your difficulties." ”

Shen Yingyue pursed the corners of her lower lip and did not answer.

Cuiliu's smile became more and more kind: "I said it to you at the beginning, no matter who is developed, I will not forget each other." I now have a great opportunity. ”

Shen Yingyue finally asked, "What chance?" ”

Seeing that she was really interested, Cuiliu hurriedly said, "The noble concubine has spoken, I can transfer you to Zixi Palace on an errand." From the current third-class palace maid, she was directly promoted to the second-class. ”

The palace maid has a strict hierarchy, and some people may only be an obscure sprinkler for the rest of their lives if they don't have the opportunity.

Shen Xinyue was able to be transferred to Dexin Palace, also because of a coincidence, there was a shortage of two low-grade maids in Concubine De's Palace, in addition to being well-behaved and sensible, there was also a requirement that it was best to be able to recognize a few words.

Most of the palace maids who were selected were literate, and they didn't even recognize their names.

Shen Yingyue was fortunate to be selected.

"I'm just a little palace maid, how can the concubine know about me?" After being in the palace for so long, she has learned a truth, that is, there is no good for no reason, unless you have value in use.
