Chapter 5 New Life
"Because you entered the dormitory of the main palace with your left foot first, and the main palace does not like it."
Everyone: "......"
Xun Chun subconsciously looked down at his feet, and thought about it, which foot did he usually take the first step?
"Princess, princess, the slave maid is a first-class palace maid who serves by your side, even if the princess doesn't like the slave and maid to drive the slave and maid away, why use such an absurd reason?"
Chu Yi covered his lips shallowly, yawned, and his eyes were clear.
She stared at the girl kneeling on the ground, and the past flashed in front of her.
Pillow Snow, Yiqiu, Drinking Ice, Looking for Spring, the four of them were her most trusted palace maids, and Pillow Snow and Drinking Ice grew up with her since childhood.
When the country died, there was a great chaos in Beijing, and Pillow Xue pretended to be the crown princess, standing up for the real princess Fu Qianqian to stabilize the palace, Chu Yi also knew at that time that Pillow Xue was a female history carefully selected by her father for herself, not only smart, but also responsible for communicating with the secret son left by her father.
And drinking ice died in battle, Xun Chun committed suicide, and only Yiqiu, who was the least daring, escaped with her.
- Chu Yi thought it was like this.
Later, Xiao Yan often used Yiqiu to threaten himself to drink medicine.
She thought that Yi Qiu had accompanied her for many years and was her only remaining old friend in her homeland, but in the end, what she got was a stab that Yi Qiu stabbed into her heart.
"Your Highness, Sister Yiqiu usually serves His Highness very thoughtfully, and she hasn't done anything wrong." Xunchun saw Yiqiu kowtowing and couldn't help but plead in a low voice.
Yi Qiu cried and begged for mercy: "The slave maid has been serving the princess since the princess returned to the palace, for three years, and now the princess has let the slave and maid go, and the slave maid has left Weiyang Palace, where can she go?" ”
Chu Yi looked at her and paused word by word: "Of course, where did you come from and where did you go back." ”
Yi Qiu was shocked, and subconsciously raised his head.
The girl who was lazily reclining on the bed was still alluring, but she was not as good at talking as before.
Chu Yi's dark eyes flashed with cold light, as if she had seen through her whole person from the inside out.
"Princess, what do you mean by this...... Yi Qiu's voice lowered.
"Drink ice," Chu Yi waved his hand, no longer wasting his tongue, "Send Yiqiu to Concubine Xian's Hundred Flowers Palace, and when the fourth emperor brother enters the palace, hand it over to him for disposal." ”
Drinking Bing walked out of the darkness in an instant, stepped forward without hesitation, grabbed Yi Qiu's collar and dragged it out.
"Yiqiu...... Is it the man of the Four Princes? Pillow Snow reacted.
She recalled that three years ago, His Royal Highness returned to the palace with the Queen Mother, and Concubine Xian, the mother of the fourth prince Chu Zhao, said that Weiyang Palace was not manpower enough to serve the princess well, so she gave Yiqiu a reward to the princess.
Yongning Princess Chu Yi, born by the queen, and the fifth prince Chu Yao are dragon and phoenix twins, and they are the only daughter of His Majesty.
But the queen mother has a strange temperament and is not in good health, and the queen mother loves the little princess very much, so Chu Yi was raised under the queen mother's knees when she was young, and she didn't move to Weiyang Palace until three years ago.
Therefore, the princess and the queen are not too close, but the virtuous concubine cares about the princess very much, and the princess treats her sincerely and respects her as a long.
"Princess, the slave maid is just, help, help the fourth highness to inquire about the princess's preferences, the fourth highness can send the princess some gadgets, the fourth highness wants to be good to you, and the slave and maid ...... The slave has never done anything to hurt the princess. ”
Yi Qiu was picked up by Yin Bing, and admitted his identity, but he still couldn't help but argue in a low voice.
Chu Yi has a gentle temperament on weekdays, treats the palace people very kindly, and is like sisters with the four palace maids.
After all, she really didn't do anything to be sorry for Chu Yi.
Chu Yi shook his head, and said in his heart that if you don't do it now, it doesn't mean that you won't do it in the future.
That knife still hurts.
"So, for the sake of the good of the palace, the fourth emperor brother can stick his own nails around the palace?" Chu Yi asked softly.
She will never forget that after the death of the country, Chu Zhao not only fled to Linjiang to establish himself as the emperor, bowed down to the Yongguo, but also established Concubine Xian as the queen mother.
And she and Chu Yao's mother, Queen Gu Sangsang, committed suicide by hanging themselves and died in the palace.
Some people sell their country to seek glory and rise to the top, but some people have already become red-faced and withered, a wisp of dead soul.
Now the queen mother is still there, and the virtuous concubine can only be a concubine forever.
Blood relatives, she protects, the emperor of the country, she will never let Chu Zhao occupy it again.
Yi Qiu saw that begging for mercy was useless, so he could only stare at Chu Yi unwillingly.
She thought that if she stayed by Chu Yi's side for so long, she would be able to help His Royal Highness in the end, but she didn't expect that now that her identity was exposed, she would achieve nothing.
Pillow Xue hesitated: "Your Highness sent her back like this, wouldn't it be cheaper for her." ”
Chu Yi's eyes flashed with a fine light, and he said calmly: "As she said, she hasn't had time to do anything to be sorry for the palace, maybe, she came to serve the palace, it is really a kindness from the four emperor brothers, just send her back, and the rest don't have to be quiet." ”
Is the person behind Yiqiu Chu Zhao or Concubine Xian?
If it's the former, it's fine, if it's the latter, then this virtuous concubine Niangniang has been inserting eyeliner around her since she was a princess who had just returned to the palace three years ago, and she was really deep and hidden.
Zhuxue didn't say anything more, and said, "Xunchun, you take two people and send Yiqiu back to the Hundred Flowers Palace." ”
"Yes."
Pillow Xue looked at the princess's delicate face and muttered, "Your Highness sleeps, it seems to have changed a lot." ”
Usually the princess is gentle and kind, although she is smart, she is too gentle, but this time in the face of Yiqiu's begging for mercy, the princess did not relent.
It's good that when the master grows up, these slaves and maids can follow suit.
After stretching his waist, Chu Yi realized that he actually slept from early morning to night, no wonder Pillow Xue almost called the imperial doctor.
She put on her clothes and got up, only to feel refreshed, and her body was healthy and comfortable as she had never been.
"This body ......"
Chu Yi raised his snow-white wrist and clenched his hand into a fist, feeling extraordinarily energetic.
How so?
She has been weak since she was a child, and even if she has not been assassinated yet, it is the mildest wind chill, and she has been sick for a few days.
But now—
Chu Yi walked out of the dormitory in surprise, the moon was as cool as water, the bauhinia bloomed, the glazed palace lamps reflected the pear trees and magnolias planted in the courtyard, a gust of night breeze blew, the fragrance of the flowers was fragrant, bringing up the bright pear blossoms, such as snow falling one after another.
The girl threw away the outer tree, picked up a piece of pear blossom and held it in her palm, and ran in amazement in the courtyard.
With a bright smile and tears in her eyes, she looked at everything around her like a newborn baby, imprinting what she saw.
The flowers are fragrant, the wind is very light and cold, but it pours into her chest but makes her feel more comfortable than she has ever been.
Chu Yi looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, and couldn't help but want to laugh.
It was like a new feeling of freedom, and she hadn't felt it in a long time.
"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Holding the thin blanket, Zhuxue followed closely behind Chu Yi, panting and asking.
