Chapter 135: The Storm in the Palace (3)
The twilight snow fluttered and poured down like fine salt, and landed on the Biwa Flying, covering the eaves with a light veil of white.
In the twilight, the majestic temple stands under the deep sky, like a giant beast lurking in the night, exuding a sense of oppression.
In an instant, the glazed palace lamps were lit one after another, and the floating lamps were thousands of miles, dispelling the gloom shrouded by the giant beast and reflecting the entire palace brightly. I still see the golden gate of Qionglou, the jade step Tongting, just like the Qionglou in the sky, the jade universe in the world.
Under Pei Rong's arrangement, Lin Wanwan was led out of the gate of the "Xianfu Palace" by a maid, and the two walked slowly along the stone steps of the vermilion wall, towards the direction of the Imperial Garden.
Lin Wanwan secretly looked at the maid who followed her, the little girl looked like she was only a young man, she was smart, like a budding spring flower in spring, but her body was also petite, at this moment, she was holding an umbrella in one hand to block the falling snowflakes for herself, and the other hand was holding a glass palace lamp.
Due to the height gap between the two, she could only hold an umbrella for Lin Wanwan while walking on tiptoe, not only to lift the umbrella high, but also to keep an eye on the slippery road under her feet, so it didn't take long for the little girl to start a little rushed.
Seeing this scene, Lin Wanwan couldn't help but stop, and said: "The road is slippery on a snowy day, let me hold an umbrella, you can hold the palace lamp." ”
With that, she reached out and grabbed the handle of the umbrella and took it from her hand.
The little girl was stunned for a moment, her expression was obviously tight, and she hurriedly lowered her eyes and said: "It's the slave who didn't serve the good girl, and the slave knows her mistake, and asks the girl to punish her." ”
There was a hint of tension in her voice, and as she spoke, she was about to fall to her knees as soon as she bent her knees.
Lin Wanwan was stunned for a moment, and quickly helped her.
Lin Wanwan didn't expect her words to make her so panicked, this girl seemed to be afraid that she would make things difficult for her.
She couldn't help but look at herself, did she look so arrogant?
Lin Wanwan pulled the corners of her lips a little helplessly, and explained to her: "You don't have to be so nervous, I don't mean to blame you, it's just that seeing you walking with an umbrella like this, it's really a little inconvenient, if you are not careful, you will fall to the ground, not to mention the pain of skin and flesh, if your clothes are soaked in snow water, I am afraid that you will get cold." ”
The maid raised her eyes and glanced at her timidly, and when she touched her bright starry eyes, she immediately lowered her eyes in a hurry.
Lin Wanwan paused, his smile narrowed slightly, then sighed slightly, and said: "I'm not a noble person, you don't have to feel uneasy, you hold the lamp, I hold the umbrella, let's divide and cooperate, so that we can not only block the wind and snow, but also see the road clearly, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?" ”
"But if my aunt knows, she will definitely punish the slave and maid."
The maid hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her fingers kept twisting the ribbon on the palace dress, as if she was expressing her inner anxiety with her strength, looking pitiful.
Lin Wanwan patted her shoulder lightly and said with relief: "Don't worry, Aunt Pei Rong won't blame you for this matter, and there is no one else here, as long as I don't say it, no one will know." ”
"Girl...... Don't blame the slaves? The maid looked at her in a daze, her watery eyes full of astonishment.
She often heard the old people in the palace say that the master in the harem, the more beautiful he looks, the more careful he must be when serving, just like a great beauty like Hua Guifei, if there is a slight difference in the service, she will be punished, and she will be beaten and scolded, and she will even die because of it.
But the master in front of her is clearly more beautiful than the fairy in the painting, but she is not difficult to serve at all, but thinks about herself everywhere, giving people a sense of affinity, and people can't help but want to get closer.
Lin Wanwan looked at the look of surprise and doubt in her eyes, smiled gently, and asked, "You didn't do anything wrong, why should I blame you?" ”
Of course, Lin Wanwan wouldn't blame her, because she knew from the beginning that this girl was just a chess piece used by the Queen Mother to test herself.
At this time, it was already dark, and on the way to the Imperial Garden, not only did she need to hold the lamp, but also hold an umbrella to block the snow, and it was the first time she had entered the palace, so it stands to reason that Pei Rong should find a clever girl to follow her, so as not to bump into the nobles in the palace. And this girl is ignorant and cowardly, plus she is a head shorter than herself, but Pei Rong chose this girl to follow her and let her hold an umbrella for herself, which seems to be embarrassing this girl, but in fact she wants to use this girl to test her temperament, and want to see if she will make things difficult for this girl in the dark.
The Queen Mother's temptation is nothing more than to know if she is an easy chess piece to control, if it is easy to control, maybe she will be kept, if it is not easy, then after using her, she will cross the river and tear down the bridge.
"Thank you, girl."
The waitress gradually relaxed, bowed deeply to Lin Wanwan, and said sincerely: "Girl, you are so good. ”
With Fang Cai's conversation, the maid was no longer as restrained as before along the way, and Lin Wanwan gradually opened her chatbox and chatted with her.
"What's your name?"
"Back to the girl, the slave's name is Yunchun."
"Yun Chun...... It is a good name. Lin Wanwan groaned slightly, and asked with a smile: "If I guessed correctly, there should be pond fish, Qiongyue, and snow poems, right?" ”
When Yun Chun heard this, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said in surprise: "Girl, how do you know?" ”
Lin Wanwan smiled, and a ray of light flowed out from between her eyebrows, exuding an intoxicating confident demeanor.
"Come to the garden to watch the flowers in the spring, come to the lotus pond to enjoy the fish in the summer, come to Qiongtai to enjoy the moon in the autumn, come to the snow to find poetry in the winter, and the four seasons are worry-free every year, which means excellent."
Yun Chun's lips opened slightly, looking at her stupidly, her watery eyes flashing with crystal light, revealing admiration.
"The girl is really amazing, if only Yunchun could be like a girl, she could read words and words, and her mouth was written into chapters."
Although there is no explicit ban on girls from entering schools, there are almost no women in private schools. In the people, the people generally believe that women should not go to the school to study, as long as they can teach their husbands and children in the future, and abide by the three obedience and four virtues are talents. In particular, women from poor families are even less likely to be able to afford the high tuition fees, so that many women will not be able to read a few words for the rest of their lives.
Looking at the longing in her eyes, Lin Wanwan's heart softened, and she couldn't help asking, "Do you want to learn poetry?" I can teach you. ”
"Really?" Yun Chun's expression was overjoyed, and his tone was quite excited.
It was the first time Lin Wanwan saw her smile, and when she smiled, a pear vortex loomed at the corner of her mouth, which was very cute. Lin Wanwan couldn't help but bend her eyebrows, and nodded with a smile.
