Chapter 303: Yang Yi Meets Concubine Jin
During the whole day, Concubine Liu spent the whole day in a state of confusion, not knowing if Lu Bu had already caught the assassin, but fortunately she didn't hear any news, which meant that Lu Bu had escaped from the palace safely.
Concubine Jin returned to the palace in the evening.
At that time, under the personal arrangement of the emperor, an idle palace had already been cleaned up, and more than a dozen maids and eunuchs were waiting in front of the palace gate to welcome the future Jin concubine.
Not long after, Concubine Jin walked into the palace with Shuqi's support.
"Niang Niang Chitose is really blessed, the palace that was personally placed by the Long Live Lord is so magnificent." Although Shuqi had also seen the world, it was the first time she had seen the layout in this huge palace, and she couldn't help but be a little dazzled, feeling that she had been in a fairyland on earth.
Seeing that this Jin Concubine actually brought a "palace maid" who was not a palace maid, several palace maids followed behind and couldn't help whispering.
Everything in the palace was ready, everything was arranged according to the requirements of the concubine.
Although Concubine Jin has been in the palace for a long time, she still has not enjoyed such treatment.
"Qi Yu Niang Chitose, Long Live Lord has just come, because I can't determine the time when Niang Niang entered the palace, so I sat down for a while and went back, do you want the slave to go back to Long Live Lord now." A palace maid walked up to Concubine Jin, who had just sat down, lowered her head, and asked in a low voice.
Concubine Jin's age is almost the same as that of this palace maid, and they used to fight together, but now their identities are different, and their small faces have lost their former smiles.
"You can ask her to go and find out, and if she is not in a hurry to say long live, she will say that she has come back from afar and needs to touch up her makeup." Shuqi crouched in Concubine Jin's ear and whispered.
Recently, this Concubine Jin has long been accustomed to Shuqi's reminders, and it seems that she no longer needs to use her own brains and hands, so she repeated it according to Shuqi's words.
"The slave and maid obey the mother's command." The maid agreed to leave.
The other two palace maids came over, planning to help Concubine Jin to touch up her makeup in the back.
"Don't you follow, Sister Shuqi will do everything for me." Concubine Jin waved her hand to stop.
The two palace maids couldn't guess what Shuqi's identity was, so they nodded hurriedly and retreated to the bottom of the steps.
The dormitory was located at the back of the hall, with a half-meter-high dressing table topped with a polished mirror, and a table covered with yellow brocade and one of the most extravagant cosmetics in society at the time.
The two delicate incense burners were emitting wisps of green smoke at this time, and the fragrance filled the entire dormitory.
For the sake of this Jin concubine, the entire palace's internal affairs office was almost alarmed, and almost everything that could be thought of was ready.
Shuqi is not in a hurry to help Concubine Jin touch up her makeup.
"Niangniang Chitose, while the long-lived master hasn't come yet, you better take a rest first, the slave and maid go outside to guard, and come to inform you immediately if there is something." Shuqi said.
Concubine Jin must also be tired.
"It's up to Sister Shuqi to decide."
This young Concubine Jin really has treated Shuqi as a sister.
Shuqi was a little nervous.
"This is the palace, Niang Niang Chitose must not be called like this again, if it is heard by others, the slave will die." Shuqi hurriedly said.
Just as Concubine Jin was about to lie down on the wide phoenix couch, a palace maid suddenly asked for instructions outside, "Qi Concubine Jin, Chief Yang of Ning'an Palace came to visit at the mouth of Concubine Niangniang, and is now waiting outside the palace." ”
Concubine Jin sat up suddenly, her expression seemed a little nervous.
Shuqi was a little puzzled.
A little eunuch, and it wasn't for Concubine Liu to come in person, how could Concubine Jin be so nervous.
"Niangniang can ask him to wait in the hall for the time being, and not to see him immediately." Shuqi said.
Who knows, this time Concubine Jin didn't listen, and kept shaking her head at Shuqi, signaling her to help her organize her outfit immediately.
"Who is this Mr. Yang?" Shuqi helped Concubine Jin tidy up, and at the same time did not forget to ask in a low voice, "Although the slave maid doesn't know the rules of this palace, I guess this eunuch will not be older than you, Concubine Jin, right?" ”
Concubine Jin hurriedly pointed to the door, signaling not to be heard by others.
"Xiaomei can have today, it all depends on the strength of this person, he is the same as Master Cizhu of Qinglian Nunnery, he is the person that Xiaomei is most afraid of." Concubine Jin explained in a low voice.
Shuqi's heart was shocked.
Could it be that this is the person behind the scenes that Lord Bao is looking for?
Concubine Jin must be a palace maid, and she has not completely broken away from the identity of the bottom, as soon as she saw Yang Yi, she instinctively wanted to go over to pay respects.
Fortunately, Shuqi was still alert and grabbed her hand hard.
Despite this, this Jin Concubine has also bent her legs slightly and made a blessed appearance.
The palace maids on one side didn't dare to laugh, but they couldn't help it, and they each turned their faces away.
Yang Yi reacted in a timely manner, striding over, bending over, looking like an extremely humble minion.
"Minions, see Miss Jin'er."
Since the emperor has not officially crowned the concubine of Jin, it is also common sense for Yang Yi to be called such a title.
Concubine Jin was pulled hard by Shuqi behind her back, signaling her to sit in the master's seat first.
Only then did Concubine Jin react.
"Take a seat." Shuqi reminded in a whisper.
Concubine Jin hurriedly instructed the palace maid: "Give the seat." ”
"Thank you, Miss Jin'er." Yang Yi said, looked around, and said loudly, "When the concubine learned that the Jin'er girl had returned to the palace, she specially sent the slave to visit and told the slave that if the Jin'er girl had any other requirements, although she said it clearly, the concubine would try her best to make arrangements." ”
Concubine Liu's kindness is decent enough for a "concubine" who has not yet become a concubine.
"After thanking the concubine, I said that it was late today, and I would go to the Ning'an Palace to greet the concubine in person early tomorrow morning." Although Shuqi doesn't understand the rules of this palace, she is expected to be similar to the people, since the concubine is so concerned, she still has to say thank you.
Concubine Jin repeated Shuqi's words almost word for word.
Although he didn't hear Shuqi's voice, Yang Yi still felt it, and his gaze shot at this woman he had never seen before.
"The concubine still has a few words for the slave to tell Miss Jin'er, but she just wants the girl to retreat from everyone." Yang Yi said.
"You wait and get back." This time, there is no need for Shuqi to remind her, Concubine Jin has already instructed several palace maids.
The people withdrew.
Shuqi was a little embarrassed, thought about it, and in order not to arouse suspicion, she followed the palace maids to the door.
"Who is this woman?" Seeing everyone leaving, Yang Yi immediately took a few steps forward and asked in a low voice.
Concubine Jin became a little nervous again.
"Manager Yang doesn't know, the Qing'er girl was assassinated in the Chuzhou Mansion, this woman is a sister with a different surname who is worshiped by the slave maid, and she is quite sympathetic, and the slave and maid will be taken care of by her along the way, so that she will arrive in Beijing safely."
Yang Yi nodded.
Qing'er's death was expected by him, this woman knew too much, if Cizhu couldn't kill her, she would find a way to get rid of her when she returned to the palace.
"I think that although this girl is a little older, she is very smart, and Miss Jin'er needs to be more vigilant and not tell the truth." Yang Yi refers to Shuqi naturally.
Concubine Jin nodded in a panic.
Some people died, but not completely......
