Chapter Twenty-Nine: Meeting
"Xia He Xia He, how do you think of this orchid I embroidered? Sister Ann keeps saying yes! ”
Early in the morning, Liu Tianxing knocked on Xia He's door with her freshly repaired purse.
The door opened, and Xia He walked out with his hair in his hands, his face was still plain, revealing a little fatigue from lack of sleep.
Glancing at the embroidery in Liu Tianxing's hand, she said with disgust: "The stitches are uneven, that is, others let you coax you with good sounds." ”
Liu Tianxing was still happy: "In the past, you said that I said that chicken feet are stronger than my hands, but now I will pick a pin, which shows that my flower is really good." ”
An Niannian walked behind Liu Tianxing, saw Xia He yawn again, and hurriedly patted Liu Tianxing's shoulder to tell her to stop making noise, Xia He is really difficult these days, she and her maid take turns to take care of Qingying, Qingying has a stomachache several times and she has been with her all night.
"Xia He, Qingying's body is better?"
"Yesterday there was a big piece of bleeding again, the blood was much less than before, and there was no fever, and the doctor said that as long as it was well maintained for a month, it would be fine." Speaking of Qingying's body, Xia He's always mean face smiled, "It's hard for Miss Achi, I was so busy yesterday and brought medicine for Qingying, ginseng and angelica are both good." ”
The speaker had no intention, but listened attentively, a few steps away, Cui Jinniang looked up at a few people, and then looked at the maid drying the freshly washed clothes as if nothing happened.
The small courtyard that can walk to the end of dozens of steps has always been crowded to live, there was only a half-dead pomegranate tree, and the extra pots of chrysanthemums in the corner of the wall were obtained by Liu Tianxing talking to "Shen Shiqing" two days ago.
If you want to see more, you have to look up and stare at the golden ginkgo trees outside the yard.
Liu Tianxing asked cautiously: "Xia He, will the young lady still call me to speak today?" ”
There are a lot of snacks and fruits there for the young lady, and Liu Tianxing is hungry when she thinks about it.
"Probably not, you can embroider your flowers in the yard." Holding the grate to separate the hair on his temples and forehead, Xia He's eyes looked at the ends of his hair, and he spoke, "I was busy these days, and the young lady has to take people out, don't make trouble for others with idle things." ”
Liu Tianxing sighed in disappointment, holding her embroidered things in her hands, and her mouth pursed: "In the past, it was the old lady and the second young master who detained us in the mansion, only the young lady taught me to read and write, told me stories and let me eat snacks, why is it that the young lady is detaining us again when we come to Zhuangzi?" ”
This sentence made the courtyard quiet.
An Niannian grabbed Liu Tianxing's wrist and dragged her back.
The two of them pulled into the house, and An Niannian raised his hand and pinched Liu Tianxing's round face: "You dare to say this kind of thing, you don't want your life!" ”
Liu Tianxing's face was flushed, she struggled to break away, and patted An Niannian's shoulder angrily to express her anger: "Sister An, what are you doing!" How could such a good person as the young lady annoy me for a sentence? ”
Such a good person?
An Nian almost wanted to rub Liu Tianxing's head soberly, where is the original steward of Zhuangzi and the mother-in-law who was sent to Zhuangzi before? Where are the mothers-in-law who brought them? The young lady has occupied this Zhuangzi for more than half a month, hasn't the house sent someone here? Where are those people now?
"Even if the young lady in the past was really good to you, the young lady is different now."
Raising his hand to pull the dragon's head hair, An Nian Nian sighed in his heart.
If the second young lady Shen is really a gentle and deceitful person, how could the old lady give her to the second young master's courtyard, just so that she can stare at the second young lady?
Liu Tianxing seems to understand whether she understands or not.
An Niannian pushed open the window and saw Cui Jinniang's personal maid walking away quickly.
The cold wind blew in, and there was still a little ash left in the charcoal basin used last night.
An Nian looked at the golden ginkgo tree outside the yard and said softly:
"You just have to be coquettish and live without a head or brain, but don't easily treat everyone as a good person, you know?"
Liu Tianxing, who was not yet seventeen years old, seemed to understand when she heard this, so she could only nod her head in confusion.
The two women didn't speak again, and the small courtyard was as big as they could see at a glance, but it seemed that they could be locked up for a lifetime.
"I'm finally out of that yard!"
In the side courtyard of the princess's mansion, Zhao Surui stretched his waist.
The pavilions and water pavilions in this courtyard are normal, and a few magnolias have long dried their leaves, only the pines and cypresses are still green, in the past, Zhao Surui would definitely not look down on such a place, and he had been holding back on the Zhuangzi outside the city for a long time, and he looked at this small courtyard and saw a bit of beautiful mountains and rivers.
The courtyard was empty, except for a woman in a half-sleeved gold silk cloak outside the purple brocade coat, looking at "her" quietly.
"Mrs. Shen, I have already sent the holy decree in your hand into the palace."
"Thank you, Princess Yueqing!" Zhao Surui hugged his little aunt with a fist.
Zhao Mingyin nodded: "Although this place is remote and quiet, Miss Shen just has to rest again." ”
After speaking, Zhao Mingyin turned around and left the courtyard.
Looking at his aunt's back, Zhao Surui exhaled.
He really didn't want to explain to others that he had swapped bodies with a woman, even if that person was his aunt who had been close to him since childhood, so he simply wrote a "holy decree", which said that the person who saw the holy decree would help Shen Shiqing send a secret fold into the palace.
Zhao Mingyin naturally did what he saw when he saw the "holy decree", and he didn't ask questions, which made Zhao Surui really relaxed.
Ah Chi looked around the house, and when he saw that the princess was gone, he came out:
"Girl, are you going to put the things you want me to pack up here?"
"No, you don't." Zhao Surui waved his hand, "Just put it in the box, and someone will naturally take it away." ”
Ah Chi nodded, she took a closer look at her girl's face, it was still the appearance of jade skin and long eyebrows, and it was still the appearance of deep eyes, but it was not the same as before.
Zhao Surui turned around and glanced at the box he had brought to the princess's mansion.
Shen San's incense is good, and he packed it.
Shen San's tea is good, and he also packed it.
Shen San's flower dew was good, and he still packed it.
The cushions commonly used in the chairs, the hand warmers made of white copper, the paintings hanging on the walls, and the recipes turned out on the bookshelves...... He packed all the things that made him comfortable on the huge Zhuangzi, and there was only one Tu Nan left, Zhao Surui thought about it, but he still held back in the end.
Ah Chi only thought that his own girl was going to move to the princess's mansion to live, but she didn't expect it to be not, she sighed, she said with a smile:
"Now that I think about it, although Zhuangzi lives in the middle of nowhere, he is at ease."
Zhao Surui didn't speak.
Yes, you are comfortable, you don't have to think about quarreling with the courtiers, you don't have to beware of Diao slaves and bullying the master, you don't have to go to the queen mother to say goodbye, you don't have to think about Moxi's Duer headquarters day and night, you don't have to look at the old face of the Hubu Shangshu who cries poor every day, and the world of Kyushu can be removed from both shoulders.
It's a pity that it's all a passing moment, he has had enough fun, and he still has to go back to the palace, when he is destined to leave a good reputation as a ridiculous emperor.
"Girl, it's overcast, go back to the house and rest first."
Zhao Surui smiled: "Ah Chi, can you see which stone in this courtyard is the right size?" I'll move rocks a few more times to train my body. ”
After practicing, he returned it to Shen San.
The body is wasted, the brain is wasted, and the sex is wasted...... Shen Sanru, Shen Sanru, I left you people, money, and physical evidence of Ning Anbo's bullying of you several times, I have done so much, if you are still as wasted as always, I will have to kill people.
It's a pity that His Majesty the Emperor didn't move it to stone after all.
Because it's raining.
The cold autumn rain fell on the pond not far away, and the people of the princess's mansion brought them food with lanterns and food boxes.
A dish of bad fish, a dish of fried pigeon with chicken fat, a dish of cold amaranth, as well as ginseng chicken and big pancakes, the dishes are good, but Zhao Surui can't raise his interest, he barely eats half full, he thinks in his heart:
"When I get it back, I'm hungry, and it's Shen San's waste."
The mood turned out to be better.
———
The night rain did not stop, and it was already a pedestrian on the road chatting, and a group of people rode by, alarming the pigeons hiding from the rain under the eaves.
I heard that a brocade guard came to the door, and Princess Yueqing, who was practicing calligraphy under the lamp, wrote a meal:
"Take them to the west courtyard, and no matter how they come or go, they don't have to come and see me again."
"Yes."
The female officer went to the eaves, held up an oil-paper umbrella with golden cinnamon painted on it, carried a lamp, and went to the second gate to convey the princess's instructions.
A team of brocade guards has a total of seven people, all wearing robes and hats outside the flying fish suits, which makes people unable to see their faces clearly, and occasionally there are lights flashing on their faces, and there is mostly a dark shadow.
The female officer led the way in front, and led a few people all the way to the southwest corner, and when she came to the front of the courtyard, the leader gave her a hand:
"Thank you for leading the way."
The female officer bowed sideways, and then shook away with a lamp and an umbrella.
When she walked away, the Jinyi guard who took the lead looked around, turned around and knelt down: "Your Majesty, wait for the ministers......"
"No need." The young man, who had been hidden among the few people, raised his head, revealing an extremely handsome face.
"You stay in shelter from the rain, and you are not allowed to trespass without my greeting, and no one else is allowed to enter."
"Yes!"
Zhao Surui in the room yawned and finally put down the notebook in his hand.
"These stories are really boring, in the end they are just to make people good, if the people in the world can be good from now on by reading a few pages, where will they come from to fight the world and be the emperor?"
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a soft knock on the door, and in the rain, the knock was not clear.
Zhao Surui was stunned for a moment, and then there was a smile on his face: "Ah Chi, you open the door." ”
Ah Chi hurriedly stood up, and almost screamed as soon as he opened the door.
A moist cold wind swept into the room, carrying the man's voice:
"Girl, don't be afraid, the lowly Jinyi Wei hundred households, the Ning'an Bo Mansion encroached on the property of Shen Qi, a university scholar who co-organized the university, and Jinyiwei was ordered to co-organize, and he disturbed late at night just to ask a few words from the Shen family."
Ah Chi looked at his own girl with some trepidation, but saw that the "own girl" was staring at the door, and waved his hand to himself casually:
"What are you panicking about, go out and find someone from the princess's mansion and ask if you can bring some refreshments."
"Yes." Ah Chi walked out hesitantly, turning back three times in one step.
Zhao Surui was still staring at the "man", but saw that he took off the coat and hat on his body first, and the coat mixed with water fell to the ground, making a sparse sound.
Tut-tut, straight, broad-shouldered, long-legged and narrow-waisted, he really didn't know that he was so graceful in a flying fish suit.
was admiring his jade tree in the wind, but he saw "himself" in a flying fish suit raise his feet and enter the door and was tripped up.
Zhao Surui: "......"
Walking under the lamp, the "man" finally showed a handsome and pale face.
"Min, Min's woman, Shen, see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
"Huh? Don't hold your body and kneel to me! ”
Zhao Surui hurriedly sat up from the couch.
Watching "himself" kneel down to Shen Sanrui's body, Zhao Surui was uncomfortable.
Shen Shiqing obediently did not kneel, and stood aside with his head down:
"Your Majesty, the women of the people, the women of the people, I really don't know how they can offend the dragon body, and they have been trembling for the past few days until they see the ...... of Your Majesty's handwritten decree."
"Come on, I see that you haven't done nothing these days, chickens, dogs, cats and mice, they are trembling minions, and you have really learned a little bit of the essence."
Zhao Surui got off the bed and walked a few steps, and stopped again when he found that Shen Sanrui's body was a little shorter than his own.
The panic on Shen Shiqing's face faded, she glanced at "herself", and lowered her head again:
"Your Majesty, the people's woman is just a woman who is forced to harm herself, and she is not afraid of anxiety every day these days, she is careful and cautious in everything, and she has no intention of causing trouble."
"I have made you troubled, and what can you do? What kind of demon and monster are you, I am not the king of the dead country, if my court lets you be destroyed in just 20 days, my seven years of emperor will be in vain. ”
Looking at Shen Shiqing's weak appearance with his face, Zhao Surui looked bored.
This Shen Sanfu fortunately didn't cry, otherwise he would have taken back his body with his front foot, and buried her in the pond in front of him with his back foot.
"Chen Shouzhang, did you kill it?"
Shen Shiqing lowered her head: "When it comes to killing, the women ......" killed others.
Zhao Surui sneered.
"Ning Anbo, do you want to kill?"
Shen Shiqing still lowered her head: "Although the folk woman has had a difficult time over the years, ......" the folk woman wants him to live better than die.
Zhao Surui sneered twice.
"Have you looked at those imperial histories who are crooked in front of me every day? Have you ever picked a spearhead and beaten up? ”
Shen Shiqing still lowered her head: "The imperial history has the duty of supervision, and the women only dare to listen to it." By the way, not saying a word scared their guts.
Zhao Surui sneered three times, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Rubbish! Rubbish! Rubbish! I'm really right to call you Shen Sanwaste! ”
was so angry that he kicked over a wooden stool, and Emperor Zhaode walked back and forth in the house several times with his hair crossed.
"Did you bring that private seal of mine?" He casually took down the white jade bead silver hairpin on his head, "You hurry up and get some blood out, let's change it back when we wake up from sleep!" ”
Shen Shiqing was frightened by his rage, and hurriedly tore off the white jade medallion from his waist and handed it to Zhao Surui with both hands.
Zhao Surui glanced at the chapter and suddenly smiled.
It was drizzling outside, and the sound of the rain was ticking, and Shen Shiqing heard Emperor Zhaode say in a voice that originally belonged to her:
"Why did you match a green tassel, it's ugly."
