Chapter 6 Rocking Chair

Obviously, the hope of contacting the family is in front of her, but she can't dial the number printed in her head, the phone at home never seems to be called out, and the number is also inadvertently known when she is playing with her father, her father's study has all kinds of important documents, she has been forbidden to enter that study since she was a child, and she has no idea how to use this thing called a telephone.

Just when she didn't know what to do, there were footsteps at the door and the faint sound of Xiaoqing looking for her, she hurriedly got up and stood by the door, and slipped out of the room after everyone outside the door walked away, pretending to be casual and walking to the restaurant, and had a long-lost meal under Xiaoqing's arrangement.

After dinner, when she returned to the room, it was time to rest, Xiaoqing changed out of her Yao suit, and took a light home Yao suit from the cloakroom to change into for her.

"Okay, you can rest early, tomorrow is over, you will be one of the hundred officials of Wanting!" Xiaoqing stood in front of Yuyang, imagining her future days and being happy for her.

"Hundred officials?" Yu Yang's brows frowned slightly, "I...... I'm not ready. ”

"You don't have to worry, you were chosen by Madame, it must be fine!" Speaking of this, Xiaoqing seemed to think of something, and hurriedly said to Yuyang, "By the way, you must not sleep tomorrow morning, you have to meet Madame at noon, we have to get up early to prepare, but don't worry, I will wake you up." ”

"Well, thank you, Xiaoqing."

Sending Xiaoqing away, she was finally the only one left in the room, and it had been almost two days since she left home, and she could finally really rest.

She looked around the comfortable and spacious room, where all the furniture, supplies, curtains, bedding, and other items had been renewed, and even the walls seemed to have been renovated and new wallpaper. Although it is said to be a room, it is actually more like home, with a study and a dressing room, a bedroom and a small living room, and the outermost is a spacious balcony, and the breeze gently blows the curtains, which attracts Yuyang's attention. She walked to the living room, pushed open the balcony door, and walked into the turbid and slightly cold spring breeze of the national capital.

Yu Yang couldn't help but shudder, hugged his arms tightly, and only then did he really feel that he was already thousands of miles away from home.

Looking outside Chaoyang Terrace, the turbidity city at the foot of the mountain is brightly lit, covering the light of the starry sky, dazzling like a fire-burning wasteland, Yuyang has never seen such a prosperous scenery. After a while, she gradually adjusted to the cold spring breeze, relaxed, closed her eyes and tried to send herself into the embrace of the wind, and smelled the fragrance of plants and flowers wafting in the air from nowhere. The night was so quiet that there was no sound except for a "crunching" noise.

Yu Yang felt strange, where did this creaking sound of bamboo and wood bending come from? She opened her eyes and looked around, only to find that the building next door not far away also had a balcony, and she was next to her balcony at a distance of less than four or five meters.

On the balcony of the opposite floor, a man in short-sleeved clothes sat on a cool rocking chair made of bamboo, lying on the rocking chair reading a book, and a not-so-bright lamp was placed on the small table next to him, the rocking chair made a nice crunch with his gentle swaying, the book covered his face, he didn't see Yuyang, and Yuyang couldn't see him clearly.

Yuyang lay on the balcony, looking at the slowly swaying appearance of the rocking chair, she was stunned, thinking about whether to call him, and she was afraid that he was a big person, she didn't understand anything, and if she exceeded the rules, it would be difficult to clean up, so she had to give up.

It seemed that if he stayed like this for a while, he would be discovered by the man opposite, so Yu Yang had no choice but to quietly return to the room, gently close the balcony door, return to the bedroom, and have a good night's sleep.

When Yuyang woke up again, the sky was already bright, and she felt relaxed after a good night's sleep, and opened the bedroom door to go to wash, only then did she vaguely hear an urgent knock on the door.

Yu Yang walked to the door and asked, "Is something wrong?" ”

"Are you up? I'm Xiaoqing! How did you lock the door?! ”

Yu Yang said embarrassedly: "I...... I locked it with my hand......"

"Open the door, we'll help you shower and change!"

Hearing that he was about to be surrounded by a group of people to take a bath again, Yuyang was so frightened that he took a step back and hurriedly said to Xiaoqing: "No need! You guys wait outside, I'll take a shower and change my clothes right away. ”

"Listen to me! You let us in! Xiaoqing said eagerly, but Yuyang didn't seem to hear the urgency in her words, and refused again and again, picking up the Yao she had worn yesterday and loading it into the bathroom.

After half an hour, Yuyang took a shower and changed into Yao clothes, and then opened the door for them, and saw Xiao Qing's pale face.

"Xiaoqing...... Why are you so ugly? ”

Xiao Qing didn't care about the cold sweat on her body, hurriedly brought the others into the room, and said anxiously, "Why did you wear the clothes you wore yesterday?" Quick, let's get back to showering and changing. ”

"Isn't this one okay? Wait a minute...... Do you want to wash it again? ”

"There's no time to explain, come into the bathroom!"

Yuyang really didn't know what she had done wrong, but Xiaoqing's pale face told her that she seemed to have made a big mistake, she hurriedly followed the other maids into the bathroom, and everyone bathed and changed her clothes according to stricter etiquette, and changed into a solemn dark blue Yao suit, and when Xiaoqing was tying her belt, there was a knock on the door.

The maid on the side said in a panic: "It's over, it's over!" It must be that Lord Shuran has arrived, Xiaoqing, you go out to meet it! ”

I saw Xiaoqing's face as if she had seen a rakshasa, nervously half-bowed out of the bathroom, and came to Yuyang's door, sure enough, Mrs. Qingning's personal maid, Ruian City's maid Changshuran was standing in front of Yuyang's door with a team of people at this time, she was dressed in a neat and light Yao suit different from others, her face was serious, and she looked at Xiaoqing and asked: "Is Miss Yuyang ready to meet?" ”

"Returning to my lordship, ...... Haven't ...... yet."

Hearing Xiaoqing's answer, Shuran didn't speak, just frowned at her slightly, and saw that Xiaoqing's back was already half soaked.

After a long time, Shu Ran slowed down and said: "Miss Yuyang is a female official that Madame likes very much, Xiaoqing, you are the last maid in our Ruian City, and being Miss Yuyang's personal maid is a blessing that you can't even think of, maybe ...... That's all your blessings. ”

“…… Master Shuran has taught me a lesson, please stay here later, and I will bring Miss Hayo out immediately. ”

"Go ahead."

Xiaoqing hurriedly bowed and retreated, and hurriedly entered the house, at this time Yuyang had already changed his clothes and was sitting in front of the dresser ready to put on makeup, during the time that Xiaoqing went out, Yuyang had already asked about the situation and knew Xiaoqing's situation, no matter what, this was the situation caused by her, and she had to be responsible for Xiaoqing.

"No need to put on your makeup, let's go."

Hearing Yu Yang say this, Xiao Qing was stunned, and before she could say anything, Yu Yang had already gotten up, combed her hair with her hands, walked to the door with a plain face, and walked to the door with a solemn posture, and made a salute to Shu Ran, saying, "Let the adults wait for a long time, let's go." ”

Seeing Yu Yang's appearance for the first time, Shu Ran was a little surprised, but she didn't show it, just pretended to be calm and returned the salute, led Yu Yang downstairs, and walked to the main hall of Ruian City.

Ruian City is a round city surrounded by twelve buildings, the main entrance is in the southernmost part, the Anming Building that receives the guest of honor is due west, the north is the main hall of Ruian City, and the middle part is a forest that covers a large area.

Walking a distance to the north, the behemoth building in front of me is getting closer and closer, and the closer you go, the more you can feel its magnificence - that is the main hall of Ryan City. Coming to the door of the main hall, Shuran turned around and said to Yuyang, "Please Miss Yuyang is here later." ”

Yuyang stopped in front of the main hall and looked up curiously at the three-story hall, decorated with ornate white fabrics.

Although there is no restriction on civilians at the moment, but in the Wanting aristocracy and royal family, there are strict rules on the use of cloth colors, only the king can use red, followed by all white, followed by black, and then blue, purple, green, blue, yellow, Ruian City is one of the three major families of the city, naturally white can be used as decoration, but this clear and pure white, I don't know how much manpower to maintain.

After waiting outside the door for a while, Shuran walked out of the hall, bowed and made a brief salute, and invited Yuyang to enter.

Yu Yang was not nervous, but under the majesty of this main hall, her heart beat a little faster. As a commoner born in the Qingmo territory, what she is about to meet is the lord she belongs to, Nuojia Qingning.

Nuojia Qingning, the only eldest princess of Wanting Kingdom, is the righteous daughter adopted by the former queen Nuojia Lexi, the righteous sister of the current king of Wanting Kingdom, Nuojia Hewu, she is the wife of the deceased patriarch Ji Jingkai of the Ji clan, after her husband died of illness, she surrendered herself to take over the position of patriarch, becoming the only patriarch with a different surname in the long history of the Ji clan.

Mrs. Qingning not only holds the highest power of the Ji clan, one of the three major families, but also is the most important official of the Wanting Kingdom, the head of the six ministers, the minister of politics and law.

Yu Yang tried to calm his nervous emotions, adjusted his breathing, and walked into the main hall, only looking at the ground with his chin headed, not daring to raise his head an inch, for fear of losing his manners. It wasn't until she walked to the open space in front of the steps that she knelt down according to the courtesy that the maid Changshuran had just said to her on the road, bowed down, and called in a calm voice: "The grass people meet Mrs. Qingning." ”

Yu Yang maintained a saluting posture and did not dare to move a minute, but the air was too quiet, making her forehead ooze sweat in this slightly cold spring day.

After a long time, Mrs. Qingning asked, "You are from Nianping Island...... Yuyang? ”

I don't know if it's an illusion, Yu Yang always felt a little choked in Mrs. Qingning's voice, but he didn't think much about it, Yu Yang quickly replied: "Yes, madam." ”

"Raise your head and let me see you."

Yu Yang hurriedly looked up at Mrs. Qingning, only to realize that the choking she had just heard was not an illusion, and Mrs. Qingning's eyes were indeed tears that almost overflowed.

"Madame...... You...... Why are you crying? ”
