Chapter 8 Making money is for ideals

Jiang looked at Liu Jinfu quietly for a long time, but he still didn't say a complete sentence.

It's not that she's racking her brains to find a reasonable explanation for her late-night climb over the wall, but that everything in front of her is too unreal.

Liu Jinfu still sits quietly under the eaves, and the rich night color blends with her pure white underwear, outlining an ink painting with soft lines.

Jiang Ning was in a trance for a while, which one was the real Liu Jinfu between the picturesque fragile beauty in front of him and the picturesque princess of Allure when he first met?

As the night deepened, the mist on the corner of the eaves grew thicker.

Jiang Ning's body temperature seemed to be drifting into the air with a faint mist in the air. She was frozen unconscious.

Liu Jinfu's hand hanging by her side tightened suddenly, and the long whip was grabbed into her palm.

"Hongu is asking you!"

The long whip was swung out in an instant, and it hit the ground of the courtyard solidly, making a crisp sound of "pop".

That crisp sound exploded in the space in an instant, dragging Jiang Ning back to reality.

She suddenly remembered what Ori Liu said that day when she was held accountable for peacock feathers.

The concubine is a lady with a spicy and refreshing personality.

Provocative.

Promptitude.

The stone pillar on Liu Jinfu's side was covered with finger-thick whip marks.

The whip marks were extremely deep, densely covered with the entire stone pillar. Every trace is the wall skin flying, and the depth of the traces can almost clearly see the color of the wall tiles inside.

She looked at Liu Jinfu's white and slender hands, and couldn't help but feel a little confused in her heart, could it be that those whip marks were really Liu Jinfu's masterpieces?

There was still silence around them, and the sharp crisp sound didn't seem to disturb the peace of the Frost Palace.

She gritted her teeth and reluctantly suppressed the trembling meaning in her mouth, "The concubine is for the peacock feather." ”

Liu Jinfu tilted his head, his expression a little confused.

"Peacock feathers?"

"That's right." She clasped her arms in her hands and kept rubbing her arms with her palms, trying to get some warmth in this way.

"Why?"

"The concubine heard that the palace people love peacock feathers and hairpins, and it is difficult to find a hairpin, and the peacocks in the palace are only in the Niangniang Palace."

"What do you do with the peacock feather hairpin?"

Jiang Ning let out a sigh of white air with difficulty, and rubbed his arms faster.

She looked at Liu Jinfu, and she couldn't stop wondering, how did the other party not be disturbed by the cold at all in such a night?

"Make money."

"Make money?" Liu Jinfu let out a chuckle, "You are Jiang Qingyuan's daughter and the emperor's concubine, will you be short of money?" ”

Jiang Ning's words trembled even more, "That's other people's money, not the concubine's own, only the concubine's own money really belongs to herself." ”

"I can't imagine that Jiang Qingyuan's family, a weak and sick seedling, can still have such a backbone." Liu Jinfu praised, "What are you doing with so much money?" ”

"Realize the dream of a concubine." No longer giving Liu Jinfu a chance to ask, Jiang Ning continued eagerly, "The concubine's wish since she was a child is to have her own house in the mountains and countryside, be self-sufficient, and live a peaceful life. ”

She finished in a trembling voice, but did not wait for the expected ridicule.

"Dreams?" Liu Jinfu whispered, as if chewing and savoring the word.

Liu Jinfu was silent for a moment, and called into the room, "Dream chanting-"

As soon as the words fell, a palace maid dressed in red walked out of the room behind Liu Jinfu with a lantern, she was neatly dressed, as if she was waiting for Liu Jinfu's call in the house.

"What do you command?" The palace maid who was called Mengyin bowed beside Liu Jinfu.

The warm light of the lantern reflected on Liu Jinfu's face, and the warm light not only did not add half of life to her face, but made her look more pale and fragile.

"Pour hot tea for Concubine Ning and put on a cloak."

"Yes." Meng Yin saluted, left the lantern in his hand to Liu Jinfu, and turned around to enter the house.

"Wait a minute." Liu Jinfu spoke again, "Go find the two eunuchs to pluck some peacock feathers, tell them to be careful, if they hurt the peacock, I will definitely make them look good!" ”

"Yes." Mengyin turned and entered the house.

Jiang Ning looked at Liu Jinfu, and really didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in the other party's gourd.

She subconsciously reminded herself that she should be wary of all this abnormality.

But whenever she looked at Liu Jinfu's cold jade-like cheeks, it was difficult to maliciously speculate about her.

Jiang Ning was really helpless about his superficiality.

There was a warm light in the room, and the palace maid named Mengyin came out with tea and a cloak, and ran quickly to Jiang Ning's side.

"This is more exposed, the mother should beware of catching a cold." Mengyin smiled sweetly at Jiang Ning, and then put the red cloak embroidered with magnolia patterns on Jiang Ning, and poured a hot tea for Jiang Ning, "Niangniang warm your hands first, be careful of burning." ”

A gentle warmth hit Jiang Ning from all directions, making her almost trance-like spirit a little clearer again.

"Mother, let's sit here first." Mengyin took out a futon wrapped in thick cloth and put it on Jiang Ning's side, "Our mother doesn't like others to sit with her. ”

She nodded in understanding, and past Mengyin, she glanced at Liu Jinfu, who was dressed in a single coat under the eaves.

"Your mother-in-law, she..."Jiang Ning said with some hesitation, "Isn't she cold?" ”

"Niangniang has never been afraid of the cold." Mengyin turned his head away and shouted into the distance, "What are you doing so slowly!" Didn't you see the mother waiting! ”

Jiang Ning wanted to continue asking, but was interrupted by Mengyin's words, she turned her head in the direction of Mengyin's gaze, and saw two little eunuchs running towards her yawning.

When one of the little eunuchs passed by, his face was surprised, "Niangniang! Sure enough, it's you! ”

She glanced at the little eunuch and instantly recognized him as the person she had met at the gate of the Frost Hall a few days ago.

"It's a minion, I'm Xiao Yuanzi! When the minion saw you outside the Frost Hall a few days ago, he guessed that you would definitely come to visit the concubine! Sure enough! ”

Just when she didn't know how to answer, Mengyin bumped Xiao Yuanzi's arm, and said in a low voice, "Niangniang is watching there." ”

Xiao Yuanzi turned his head and glanced in the direction of Liu Jinfu, then instantly retracted his head in a sneer, and didn't dare to say more.

Mengyin picked up the lantern and followed the two little eunuchs into the Peacock Garden.

Jiang Ning sat down on the futon that Mengyin gave her, she held the small tea cup in both hands, and looked at everything in the Frost Hall through the misty mist.

Completely different from Liu Jinfu's grace and luxury, the layout of the entire Frost Hall is surprisingly simple.

On this spring day, there is not even a single bright color in the garden.

The decoration of this yard, except for the row of green bamboos in the corner, is only the lawn under him.

She took a sip of tea, hesitated a little and walked in the direction of Liu Jinfu.

Jiang Ning added a cup of tea to the teacup in his hand with a teacup and handed it to Liu Jinfu, "Niangniang, drink tea." ”

Liu Jinfu looked up at her like a dream, and his expression couldn't see joy or sorrow.
