"The autumn light of silver candles paints the screen coldly, and the light fan blows at the flowing fireflies."
"The autumn light of silver candles paints the screen coldly, and the light fan blows at the fireflies?"
"The autumn light of silver candles paints the screen coldly, and the light fan blows at the fireflies!"
Lian Sui sat on the steps angrily fanning herself with her hands. Did she really not have an spy in her house?
The door next to the room creaked open from the inside, and Xiao Tao asked sleepily: "Miss, can't you sleep? It's so late at night, why do you think of reading poetry in the yard?"
When she heard it for the first time, Xiao Tao thought it was her auditory hallucination. Her young lady said she was sleepy early tonight and asked her to come back to sleep. How could she come out to read poetry.
She turned over and continued to sleep. In a daze, about two quarters of an hour later, she heard another sound, and then there was no movement.
It might really be a hallucination, or it might be a dream.
It wasn't until the third time that Xiao Tao put on her clothes and got up, and saw Ying'er and Hong'er sticking their heads out to look into the yard. With that figure, they looked like her young ladies.
Lian Suisui's mouth twitched.
"It's okay, I suddenly became very poetic. You can continue to sleep."
The master is not sleeping, how dare a maid go to sleep?
Xiaotao rubbed her eyes and came out of the room.
"Miss, my servant will accompany you."
Lian Suisui: "..."
"No, I'm going back to sleep now!"
Secret guard hiding in the dark: No, what is Miss Lian San doing? Do you want to report it to his master?
The master only asked him to monitor Lian Suisui and not to reveal his master's secrets. He didn't say anything else...
The secret guard hesitated for a while, then stood up and disappeared from the roof.
The sky was full of stars tonight, and Chu Zhiyi rarely fell asleep early. The secret guard reported Lian Suisui's abnormality to Shuying. Shuying couldn't bear to disturb his master, and planned to wait until his master woke up before reporting.
Waiting until daybreak, the sound of the watch was heard outside.
"What time is it?"
I slept for a long time. It was bright outside and Chu Zhiyi sat up.
"It's past the morning time."
"Is it so long..."
The scene in the dream seemed like a lifetime ago.
Shuying judged that his master might be in a good mood at the moment.
"Master, Miss Lian San read poems in the yard all night last night. I think she might want to see you for something?"
Chu Zhiyi raised his eyes and looked over.
"My subordinates saw that you rarely had a good night's sleep, so they didn't bother you."
Shuying felt that he had made a very right choice.
Chu Zhiyi asked: "So, did you go to see her? What happened?"
Shuying choked.
There was an eerie silence in the room.
"Ha." Chu Zhiyi pulled the wheelchair and moved it from the bed to it, "Idiot, sooner or later, your brains will be rusted."
Shuying knelt down to plead guilty.
Chu Zhiyi pushed the wheelchair out of the room past him.
"Master, where are you going?"
The street in the morning was full of smoke and smoke. Chu Zhiyi sat by the window and looked at the passers-by downstairs.
"Master, I bought the buns."
Chu Zhiyi hummed and did not look back.
It wasn't until the buns were almost cold that he picked them up and ate one.
"Go home."
ah?
Shuying did not dare to express any further opinions and carried his master down the stairs.
The beggar-looking man fell in front of Chu Zhiyi's wheelchair. The guards protected him in the middle and shouted at the beggar.
"Get out of here, you bumped into our prince, can you bear it?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
The beggar got up and ran away with evasive eyes. Chu Zhiyi looked over, touched his waist, and his expression changed.
"Shu Ying, go and catch that beggar!"
His master's face was serious, Shuying didn't dare to be careless, and shouted in the direction the beggar left to stop.
The beggar immediately started running. Relying on his understanding of the terrain, he dodged left and right in the crowd and disappeared into an unknown alley.
Shuying searched for a long time.
"Master, what did you throw away?"
Other guards asked Chu Zhiyi.
"I told you to run!"
Shuying threw the beggar in front of Chu Zhiyi and said angrily, "If you run away, I won't have to do my job anymore! Tell me, what did you steal?"
Stealing his master's things right under their noses and risking his life?
"Please forgive me! I didn't steal anything. If you don't believe me, please search me!"
"How dare you speak so harshly!" Shuying kicked the beggar on the back, "If you continue to quibble, I will cut out your tongue!"
Seeing that he couldn't hide it, the beggar tremblingly took out the stolen porcelain vase.
There was no shortage of people on the street, and the movement here attracted many people to watch. In full view of everyone, Chu Zhiyi took out a handkerchief, cleaned and wrapped the porcelain bottle he had taken back from the beggar.
He smiled modestly and said: "Sorry, I am not bullying others with my power. This thing is a gift from my benefactor, and it is of great significance to me. Shuying, since I have taught you a lesson, let me go."
After being pardoned, the beggar disappeared into the crowd with a hiss, but the crowd of onlookers did not disperse. Everyone's eyes fell on the porcelain bottle in his hand.
The small and exquisite porcelain vase has a few peach blossoms printed on it, and it looks like it belongs to a woman.
Shuying pushed Chu Zhiyi into the carriage.
Suddenly, the crowd exploded.
The Ninth Prince’s benefactor is a woman!
Is it... sweetheart?
When did the Nine Emperors Uncle, who always stayed at home, have a benefactor? It is inferred that it should be a young woman!
No way...is it Lian Suisui?
At the same time, everyone thought of the scene when Lian Suisui hugged Uncle Nine Emperors and rescued people from the killer's knife.
Lian Suisui is sitting at home, and trouble comes from the sky. She is studying housekeeping seriously and actively preparing for the Qin family's banquet.
In terms of medicinal materials, since Uncle Nine Emperors cannot be contacted, we will wait until the next meeting.
On the third day of July, the Qin family's banquet arrived as scheduled.
On this day, Lian Fangyu took leave and accompanied them to the house.
It was a rare opportunity to return to her parents' home in an open and honest manner, so Mrs. Qin started preparing the gift list early. She dressed up in Sui Sui and followed the couple to the Qin family's ancestral home.
They arrived early, and there was only one carriage parked in front of the door. Judging from the etiquette, it was a palace carriage.
"Mom, is there someone coming from the palace?"
Lian Suisui got off the carriage and followed Qin.
Mrs. Qin explained: "The Queen Mother and your grandmother have a handkerchief relationship. If today's banquet was not related to the Queen Mother, your grandmother would not have made any announcement."
"The Queen Mother came in person?"
Lian Suisui was shocked and came earlier than them. What a good relationship!
Lian Suisui was extremely envious.
Why is there only one Xia Jing'er around her who plots against her every day?
"Don't be rude when you meet the Queen Mother later."
Lian Suisui responded and turned around to pull the timid Lian Xiaoxiao.
The ancestral residence of the Qin family was a gift from Taizu. It is said to be the residence of the former regent. Entering the gate, the buildings inside are extremely luxurious. However, due to years of disrepair, the red paint and colorful patterns in many places have long since fallen off, which makes this expensive building. The imposing house has a somewhat quaint and heavy feel.
There are very few servants in the house, and they all wear ordinary cotton clothes.
My legs were almost sore from walking before I walked to the inner house.
It wasn't until we arrived at the courtyard where the old lady lived that we saw a few well-dressed maids.
Two maids opened the curtain and invited them in.
"Greetings to father and mother."
Lian Fangyu and Qin were saluting in front, while Lian Suisui and Lian Xiaoxiao were behind.
"Ah, Ying'er is here, get up quickly and come to the Ai family!"
The Queen Mother called Mrs. Qin to her side, looking past Mrs. Qin and looking directly at Lian Suisui.
Lian Suisui was thinking, this is the Queen Mother. Can she ask the Queen Mother to cancel her engagement with Cheng Wang?
