Part One: Intertwined Time and Space Chapter Two: The Spiritual Stone of Fate
Chapter 38 The Palace
Qi Yilin sat on the sofa in Yue Qing's room and looked at her, with two lunch boxes beside him. Yue Liang hasn't woken up and hasn't eaten yet, and he hasn't eaten either.
Wenhua came over: "Mr. Qi, isn't Yueqing awake yet?"
"No, it's been four hours and I haven't eaten yet. I slept until now." Qi Yilin sighed and replied.
The company has arranged accommodation. Those who need accommodation can stay there, and those who don't can go home. Men usually share a room with two people. There are not many people who need accommodation, so the ladies are assigned a room each. After the group returned, Qi Yilin sent her to a temporary dormitory to rest.
Wenhua lived next door. After lunch, he saw that Yueqing was still awake, and he was worried. Qi Yilin had been sitting in Yueqing's room with the door open. People outside can see Qi Yilin sitting on the sofa at the door. Of course, the bed sleeping inside cannot be seen from the door and must be located further inside. Four hours have passed and Yue Qing still hasn't woken up.
In the afternoon, all the staff at various positions have returned to work. Yue Qing's team has also set off for a while. According to the company's regulations, she is considered absent from work.
People in the company are basically aware of the situation, and some people will even say a few words. This is considered work. If you feel uncomfortable, just ask for leave. Wenhua basically comes to check on the situation every once in a while, but after all, she still has her own work to be busy with.
"Why don't you, Mr. Qi, go take a rest first, and I'll keep an eye on her," Wen Hua said.
"No, I have nothing to do, but you should go and do your work first." Qi Yilin still had some idea in mind, guessing that Chang Yueqing would probably sleep for a long time here.
"If it doesn't work, let's take him to the hospital and see why he can't wake up."
"Well, I'll contact the hospital now." Qi Yilin said, thought for a moment, and took out his mobile phone.

After Chang Huai and the two left, Qing'er followed Yueqing and took her to the lotus pond to play. The flowers in the pond were blooming beautifully. The contrast of green leaves and pink flowers made the whole pond fresh and bright. There was not even a dry leaf in the pond. None, the bottom of the pool was clear and there were red fish swimming in it. The pond is not small, and there are railings built around the entire pond. Outside the railing is a green lawn. The garden designer in the mansion is very attentive. There is a small rockery not far from the pond and a small peach grove in the middle. Yueqing knelt and crawled by the pool to look inside. Qing'er grabbed her clothes from behind, "Miss, be careful not to fall."
"Hold on, don't drop it." Yue Qing said, crawling her head forward a little more, and when she saw her reflection in the water, Yue Qing saw clearly for the first time what she looked like. She has a pink face that can squeeze out water, soft hair tied into two symmetrical buns, pink exquisite emerald beads, and a red bag headband. She has some untied hair on her forehead, clear, thin and curved eyebrows, big peach blossom eyes, bright and smiling eyes, a small nose and a small mouth. She will definitely be a beauty when she grows up.
Yue Qing smiled, grabbed the grass by the pond and threw it into the pond. When the grass blades floated to the pond, the red fish did not react. They turned around to find a pebble and threw it into the pond. Several small fish were frightened and swam away, and Yueqing turned around to find the pebbles. Qing'er also looked for her, and Yueqing placed the pebbles on a small square table not far away. She heard people around her laughing. She looked over and saw the lady and others in the pavilion looking at her with smiles on their faces.
She immediately felt like a little star. She put down the pebbles and ran towards the madam, shouting: "Mother." Qing'er followed her.
The lady took a few steps forward and caught her at the foot of the pavilion's steps. "Qing'er, be good, don't fall."
"Mom, I want to go there." Yue Qing raised her little finger and pointed at the building she just mentioned. It was a pavilion outside the courtyard, and Yue Qing could see its top three floors from here. You can't see anything below. The three floors above are very spectacular. You can see the eaves at the four corners and the railings and pillars on each floor. Yue Qing can also see from here that it must be very big. It was also the largest building that Yue Qing could see. Of course there were others bigger than it, but that was a mountain. There were lush trees beside the pavilion, and the scenery looked very nice. Yue Qing wanted to go and have a look.
The lady looked in the direction she pointed, "My dear, it's too far. Let's go another day, okay? Let's play in the yard today."
Yue Qing pouted, then changed direction, pointed at the arch and said, "Then go over there."
The madam looked at her and said helplessly, "Okay."
Yue Qing was about to run over, but Qing'er quickly picked her up. The group of people walked over there.
.................................................................
Yueqing pestered them everywhere. When she got to one place, she would only play for a short while before running off to another place. Cai'er and the others were fine. She, as a mother, was really not strong enough, so she just followed them. After a while, they felt a little tired. In fact, Yue Qing felt that they hadn't walked much, and there were many places they were not allowed to go to.
A place like Guanyuge is said to be too far away.
The courtyard in one direction is said to be the west courtyard, and the other is the south courtyard and is not allowed to enter. It must be a place where other people live. Yue Qing thought that there must be other owners here. In fact, I have heard before that someone is protecting someone in the west courtyard. I don’t know if she is my father’s little wife or something. It is often said on TV that men in ancient times had three wives and four concubines, so it is not surprising that other owners live here.
You can't go into the yard in front. It's said to be the front yard, where the men go. Children can't go out. Yue Qing thought for a while and found that she really didn't see any men here. She only saw two men, Chang Song and Chang Huai. The others were all women, even the cleaners were maids, not a single man was seen. It seems that all the male masters and servants are in front.
There was also a residence that I was not allowed to pass by, saying that it was a place where servants lived and it was not suitable for a young lady to go there. Yueqing only saw people doing activities there from a distance, washing clothes, sweeping and the like.
They are not allowed to go to places like the kitchen, for fear that the lady will be hurt there.
The only places you can go are gardens, woods and the like. There was a feeling of regret in Yue Qing's heart. If she had a chance to come back next time, she would think of a way out.
This still made my mother so tired that she had to take a rest from time to time, even though Yue Qing was basically held in her arms. But when she goes to a place to play, she is also constantly moving. She didn't feel tired at all.
Seeing her unfinished expression, the lady couldn't bear to let her go back. Xiaoye and others were worried about his wife's health, so they brought her a cloak to put on and asked someone to bring a small sedan.
This young lady never goes out to play. When she goes out, all the maids are tormented. They look at each other and murmur, missing the usually well-behaved young lady.
While it was spinning, a maid came to report, "Princess, the prince is back."
The lady looked happy and waved to Yue Qing quickly, "Hurry, Qing'er's father is back."
Yueqing was sitting among the flowers, playing with the various flowers that Qing'er had picked for her. When she heard this, she raised her head, and Qing'er picked her up.
