One morning, Qingya woke up vaguely from her dream. She stretched out her hand to open the window curtain, and could vaguely see several little maids coming in to clean the house, and waiting for people to move the wooden furniture in and out.
There was a pot of bright dwarf plums placed on the bookcase in front of her bright window, and some strange things were added to the bookcase.
She was so hungry that she lost her features, her lips turned purple, and she leaned up in a hazy state and called out: "Cuihe!"
She was so angry that she was extremely weak.
"Girl, you're awake! Now that you're out of confinement, I've prepared soup to nourish your stomach!"
"Girl, would you like to freshen up before eating?"
She nodded, then let Cui He help her get up to wash herself, and then sat gently in front of the dressing table.
Cui He stood behind her, holding her plain clothes, looking around at her condition, reaching for a wooden comb and dipping it in the rose oil used to comb her hair, combing her thick and long hair smooth and shiny.
She lowered her head and saw that the small pile where she was sitting was covered with a thick wool cushion, then she reached out and touched it: "This cushion is actually comfortable to touch. Oh, by the way, I'm watching you guys busy today." What are you doing outside of work?"
"The girl has actually forgotten the date. Tomorrow is the Great Winter Festival, so the king ordered that all the gardens in the palace replace the old and unusable furnishings with new ones."
"Your Majesty said that the plans you are using were purchased by the Madam before. They have been used for twenty years. It is the Great Winter Festival, so they ordered people to replace them with new ones."
After hearing this, she lowered her head and pursed her lips: "Actually, I don't plan to stay in the government for a long time. Changing it to a new one has nothing to do with me."
After Cuihe heard this, she nodded silently and braided her hair carefully. After braiding, she also put a bun on her head: "In the past few days, the girl has been lying down. I looked at her. Every night, the king would come and take a look, then leave again."
"This is his palace. He can come whenever he wants, and I can't interfere. What do you want to do with me?"
Cuihe immediately smiled innocently: "I just thought that the king is really handsome and gentle."
"The Emperor of Qin was not cruel in appearance, and Emperor Tang was not philanthropic in every aspect. He judged people by their appearance, which was really superficial."
Cuihe was gagged, so he lowered his head and combed her hair carefully, and put on a set of colorful pearl hairpins. Thick pearls, agates, and jade were inlaid on the silver flower plants, and the hanging tassels touched each other. When they hit each other, they sounded like crisp bells.
"This hairpin is so beautiful!"
"Yes! It goes with that orchid skirt."
"Okay, I'll wear that dress today. After breakfast, I'll go find Yungong! From now on..., I'll go back and come to the palace as little as possible."
While Cui He was doing something, he listened to what she said and waved to a little maid to bring some soup.
"Girl, please have some soup. There are also Hu Pancakes that girls like to eat!" Cuihe gently handed over the Hu Pancakes on the small wooden plate, and then placed the meat and rice soup on the small table.
She glanced at the steaming rice soup, and her stomach growled again. She reached out and took the chopsticks to pick up the pancake and wolfed it down. She chewed it twice and swallowed it, and took two more mouthfuls of rice soup. Then, she simply put down her chopsticks, grabbed it with both hands and put it into her mouth.
Seeing her embarrassed look, Cui He felt distressed and happy at the same time: "Girl, please slow down!"
"For the first time, I feel that this biscuit is a delicacy in the world!" she said with a playful smile.
"Seeing the girl so happy, I feel relieved."
"Why do you have to worry about unworthy people and unworthy things all day long? I have knelt down and been punished enough. Now I want to be happy."
She dipped the meatloaf in the bean paste and ate it happily, like a prisoner released from a starvation prison. Before she even tasted the food, she swept the plate clean, not even the dregs were left.
"I went to look for Yungong..." After she washed her hands, she applied some ointment, changed into a blue and lotus root pink skirt, and put on a gray fur collar before leaving.
"The king should not be here at this time! I don't want to meet him," she took a few steps and then stopped.
"Your Majesty, I have been busy with the Ministry of War these days. When I returned to the mansion, I just rested in the garden to recover from my injuries."
"Okay, you don't have to follow me. I'll go out for a walk by myself. I'll come back from my sword practice and ask about the jade ring!"
She clasped her hands and stepped out of the threshold with small steps, strolling along the long corridor. Along the way, Mei'er in the courtyard poked her head into the corridor, and the flowers were as bright as a girl's shy face.
It's the Great Winter Festival, the cold snow of the past few days has stopped, and the warm sun is spreading a little light in the gray clouds. I raised my hand and looked everywhere, but I saw that red lanterns were hung up everywhere, and there were red lanterns in the corridors. The pace of people coming and going among various groups was also much faster than usual.
Her eyes passed through the layers of flowers and branches, looking at the unwilling Gao Guo. The unchanged red walls and green tiles trapped the red flowers and bright colors in the garden, leaving a layer of untouchable loneliness. .
In a trance, she heard children laughing in the distance, so she lost her heavy heart and followed the sound.
Surrounded by Hongbei and surrounded by bamboo springs, in an empty courtyard, Yun Gong and Yun Zhong were playing in the snow. He held the small snowball in his two chubby hands and chased Yun Zhong staggeringly, struggling to push the snow away. The ball was thrown, and he stood there grinning, showing his two baby teeth.
She was so elegant and elegant, she looked at his naive look behind the red pillar, and her whole heart was already captured by his cute appearance.
Yungong was very smart. When he saw her coming, he went up to hug her: "Cousin aunt..."
He rubbed his hands on her skirt, and she knelt down, wrapped her arms around his round waist, and picked him up with a lot of effort.
"Oh, why is our prince so heavy?" She pinched his round nose.
"Nephew, please greet my cousin!" Yunzhong came forward respectfully.
Qingya nodded and was about to say something to him, but she saw him step forward and bow again: "Cousin, it's time for my nephew to study, so he's going to study first!"
Maybe he was reserved by nature, or maybe he was trying to evade, but she always felt that his words were too deliberate, but she smiled after seeing his quiet look.
After he left, Qingya stood in front of the court with Yun Gong in her arms, looking at the pile of white snow in trance.
"Tell me, have you ever built a snowman?"
He listened for a long time and blinked, not understanding anything.
"Let me teach you!"
She put him down gently, then rolled up her sleeves to lift up the thick snow, and then held the snowballs together to form a hill.
Yun Gong didn't know anything. She just dug her little hands into the snow and wiped the embryos she had piled up from time to time.
"Oh, Yungong, don't make any trouble!" After he playfully scratched the snowflakes, she squeezed his hand.
In an hour, she rolled a snowball to make a head and stood it on the hill. She also found pebbles and branches to set on the "head".
She was carefully smoothing away the snow, but suddenly something cold flew into her neck. She twitched from the cold and quickly shrank her head.
She looked back and saw Yun Gong standing there smiling innocently, with the remaining snow still in his hand.
"Okay, you actually want to beat your aunt?"
She immediately wanted to catch him, but he was even more agile and ran away, staggering in circles around the snowman, rolling like a fur ball in the snow.
The two of them were playing, and their free and heartfelt laughter was like the sound of nature, better than any other string music in the world. The surrounding cold courtyard suddenly became more lively.
"Who is so bold to play around here and disturb my interest in composing music?"
With such an arrogant tone, she knew who was coming as soon as she turned around. She saw Pu Sanxiang Ling coming angrily, shaking the golden steps on her bun, and waving her purple-red big wave. He arrived with his sleeves, and behind him were still the group of maids who bowed their heads.
She was still so charming, so graceful, and everyone bowed their heads and took a step back as soon as they saw her.
"I've met Sister-in-law Ling!"
When Xiang Ling saw her, she calmed down a little, stood on the high steps, fixed her bun, and said with a face that became even worse: "It's my cousin! I don't know why my cousin is playing here so early in the morning. It disturbed my mood."
After hearing this, Qingya looked at her arrogant look and looked around: "Sister-in-law, you are worrying too much. This place seems far away from my sister-in-law's Shaoyan Xuan. Why bother?"
Xiang Ling was extremely shocked. She didn't want her to dare to speak like this, so she came closer and said, "When I say Nao Nuo, it's just Dao Nuo. What other reason is there? I am the master. Do you regard this place as your own home now?"
"Yes, what my sister-in-law said is true, so Qingya retreated!"
She looked at her arrogant look on the steps, then gently bowed her head and retreated, thinking about it and immediately stayed away from her.
"Wait a minute, I have something to talk to you about!"
"Sister-in-law, did you say that?"
"I heard that you and the imperial concubine have been friends since childhood?"
"yes!"
"You girl, I think you are quite smart and willing to talk to me properly. So today, I will make it clear."
"Why don't you join me in secretly betraying the imperial concubine and bringing her down? I know it must be despicable to say this, but I will get benefits in exchange for you."
After hearing this, Qing Ya felt incredible and tentatively replied: "Sister-in-law, please tell me?"
"I already know that you care about King Qi and want to meet him. If you reach an agreement with me, how about I let you go out to meet your lover easily?"
When she heard such outrageous remarks, she underestimated Hong Bei beside her and sneered: "You want me to help others do evil? You underestimated my relationship with Wu Lin Mingxuan, thinking that I would betray myself because of a man. sisters?"
Xiang Ling felt even more incredible, and suddenly turned her head and frowned: "All feelings are nonsense. I have the man I love, and you have fulfilled yourself. Don't we have something in common?"
"As you can see now, I am favored by the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine cannot tolerate me. She uses her status as the royal concubine to suppress me and embarrass me. Now, I don't want to tolerate it anymore!"
What she said was indeed confusing right and wrong. After hearing this, Qing Ya felt more and more that she was really ambitious.
"Sister-in-law, I can't tolerate you? All the concubines and the most important concubines are overwhelmed by you. Who can't tolerate whom? But by the way, sister-in-law, you really come from a famous family. If you have the courage, you also have the confidence to be arrogant and arrogant. Damn, even the imperial concubine whom the Holy Emperor personally conferred is not looked down upon."
"Presumptuous!" Xiang Ling was irritated and yelled at her.
