"Sister, sister has not lied to Yaya, right?" Yuya looked at me with a heartbroken look. Her eyes seemed to be back to the way they were when we first met a few years ago, full of expectations and wariness.
!Damn it, you are actually on guard!
I played with the pen in my hand and continued to complete the work in my hand, and my expression did not seem to be affected in any way.
After a long while, I stood up and asked Yun Ying to clean up my completed design sketches. Then, I took off the gray coat I had put on because I was afraid of getting my clothes dirty when I was painting, and handed it to Xiao Quanzi who had been waiting beside me.
I turned around and asked casually: "What about you? Do you think I'm taking advantage of you?"
She dodged her eyes and said, "Of course I don't believe it. How could my sister take advantage of Yaya?"
"That's okay." I concluded.
"But - but the Emperor -" she asked cautiously, observing my expression, worried that I would be angry.
I sighed, pulled her to sit down, and said seriously: "It is purely an accident that the emperor pays attention to me. However, you don't have to worry, it won't take long for me to return to my original life, or it will be quieter." I told her.
She promised, letting her relax.
I know that the jealous concubines are spreading rumors recently. If they are not too exaggerated, Yaya would not be able to bear it and come to me today to ask for confirmation. Seeing her haggard look, she must have been speculating in her heart for a long time, but again
Don't dare come to Jiunianxuan to find me.
This month, the emperor was almost doting on me. At first, he even let me sleep in his palace, but in the end, he actually stayed in Jiunianxuan every night. If I hadn't insisted on not moving, he would have stayed there.
He had already asked me to move out of Jiunianxuan and gave me a new bedroom. For a while, the beauty Xie who was regarded as a joke after dinner was mentioned again, no, it was no longer a beauty, but Jieyu. I again
I became a popular person in the palace, and I was helpless about the result. But the instigator of this matter acted like a normal person. He stayed in Jiunianxuan after court every day, played chess with me, talked, and even
He is tired of being here every day, tasting the food I cook. When he first learned that I cooked my own meals, he was so angry that he almost tore apart the entire harem, but seeing that I like to cook by myself, he accidentally ate it
After I cooked the food, he followed me.
In fact, most of what he does every day is to stare at me blankly, as if I am not him, and he is looking at another person through me. I woke up several times during the night, and I also saw him staying up most of the night, standing half up and staring.
looking at me.
Is this all caused by that dead eunuch?! I remember I called him over the next day and slapped him hard. The corners of his mouth were bleeding, but he still said respectfully: "This is the best thing for the young master.
"
This old fox's face didn't change. I just warned him coldly: "If you think that I am still the fourth young lady of the Xie family who was raised in a boudoir and allowed to be bullied, you are wrong." I approached him and looked at him.
He said like a ghost in his ears: "Do you want to set me up? Unless I volunteer, you will see the price of trying to do something on me. And, I guarantee that you will regret it for the rest of your life."
His face turned pale, and I just told him to get out of here and just sat there in a daze. Such a bloodthirsty, cold-blooded and ruthless person is the real me. What I just said was definitely not a joke.
"Sister, I believe you, I will never think about it again. I'm leaving, sister." After getting my assurance, Yaya finally felt at ease, returned to her usual smiling face, and left happily.
I know that her fear comes from the rumors and trouble caused by the women in the harem, which means that I usually pretend to be sick and hide from people, but unexpectedly, I use Yu Ya as a springboard behind my back to make the emperor look at me differently. These women usually have nothing to do.
, the imagination is really good.
But since Yaya is willing to come to me for verification, it means that she still trusts me as her sister.
However, these are not the things I want to settle accounts now. There is another person who I must speak clearly to. Otherwise, I will not feel at ease!
The quiet and silent night was a bit strange. Especially tonight at Jiunianxuan, Xiao Quanzi looked at his master who was sitting on a high seat drinking tea with a leisurely expression, and sister Yun Ying who was kneeling on the ground with a pale face and trembling body.
Xiao Quanzi was about to step forward to say something and plead for Sister Yun, but his master glanced over at him with a piercing look. He was so cold that he was stunned and seemed unable to move.
After almost an hour of this situation, the master finally spoke, but it was still cold to the bone: "I don't want to beat around the bush, just tell me directly, who is the master behind you?" She looked at her knees on the ground and followed her.
After being together for so long, he then said: "I don't want to hear any lies." Thinking of being dependent on each other for so many years, the feeling of betrayal made my heart hurt.
"Miss, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Yun Ying looked at the cold young lady, feeling guilty and speechless for a moment. She only felt sour in her heart, and tears kept falling inexplicably. Normally, the young lady would never treat this kind of thing.
The young lady has always been like the sunshine in winter, always warming my heart, making me willing to give up everything and follow her wholeheartedly!
"Still don't want to say it?" It was still a cold voice.
"It's Yun Ying who is sorry for the young lady. If the young lady doesn't forgive Yun Ying, Yun Ying is willing to die to apologize." After saying that, he hit his face with a palm. The palm wind was so strong that he actually knew martial arts!
How much did she conceal about herself? But I didn’t have time to delve into it. I flicked the tea cup in my hand and hit her on the wrist to stop her suicide. I finally sighed and my voice became lower, no longer pretending to be cold: "You...
Why bother? I didn't want to punish you." I stood up and walked over to pull up Yun Ying who was kneeling on the ground. Tonight, I specifically refused the emperor's bedtime because of my physical discomfort. The emperor's invitations to bed in recent days have caused a lot of trouble.
There were fluctuations in the harem, so he secretly agreed.
Yun Ying burst into tears, but still stubbornly knelt on the ground, kowtowed hard to me, looked at me, and said firmly: "Yun Ying swears, since the young lady woke up after being injured, she has been so kind to Yun Ying.
I have never done anything to feel sorry for the lady."
"Then why -" I wanted to ask, then why did he leak my whereabouts to the senior manager several times, and also had several encounters with the emperor, once in Yawu and once in Lihualin. Fortunately, when I was in Yawu,
The light was dim that day, and I put on some disguise so that he didn't realize that I was the later Xie Weiying.
"This is the only time I listen to the master." I clenched my fist, and it turned out to be the elder! I always felt strange that the elder knew everything about me, but the only person close to me was Yun Ying, and I didn't want to doubt her.
, but after entering the palace——
Yun Ying wiped away tears: "I am actually someone who has been specially trained by the master to exist for the miss. The master asked Yun Ying to stay with the miss, firstly to protect the miss, and secondly -" Yun Ying paused,
I snorted, naturally it was to monitor me.
She continued: "The second reason is to tell him everything about the young lady. Because of the slave's carelessness, the young lady fell into the pond. Yun Ying has always felt guilty about this. Although the young lady had a timid temperament when she was a child, she was kind-hearted and has always been with Yun Ying.
We depend on each other for life. Fortunately, the young lady survived. Although the young lady has forgotten everything, she has become stronger. Yun Ying has been happy from the bottom of her heart. Since the young lady woke up, I have never said anything to the master about the young lady. Until I entered
In front of the palace, the old man came to Qulan Garden while the young lady was out. Seeing the beautiful Qulan Garden after the young lady's renovation, the old man was amazed at first, and then murmured to himself, "During the family banquet, I knew that Ying'er was definitely the best."
"Special." Then I casually asked the young lady about her daily life, and left without saying anything. I thought nothing would happen, but soon the young lady was called by the master to let her enter the palace."
Yun Ying suddenly looked up at me and said with some admiration: "Yun Ying remembers that the master once told me before entering the palace that people like the young lady want to dominate the world. But after the young lady entered the palace, she had no intention of competing with her for favor.
So the servant took it upon himself to talk to the senior manager. Yun Ying thought it was for the good of the young lady, but the young lady was not happy at all. Miss, Yun Ying was wrong. The young lady can punish her however she wants, but the young lady should not drive Yun Ying away. Yun Ying
I will serve you by your side for the rest of my life."
It turns out that my entry into the palace must have been just a premeditated plan by the patriarch. He must have known that I owed Chen Ningyuan, so he set a trap for me to fall into willingly. Even if I knew it was a trap, the path I chose must still be...
It's the same! After all, I really hope that my second sister and Chen Ningyuan can be together. I know that what Yun Ying said is true. After all these years, if she really wanted to harm me, she would have done it long ago. Why wait until now?
This silly girl!
I glanced at Yun Ying indifferently, and said with mist in my eyes: "Do you really want me to forgive you? Then, as long as you do one thing for me, I will forgive you."
Yun Ying lowered his head and said firmly: "Even if Yun Ying is allowed to die, Yun Ying will never complain."
I suddenly sneered and said with empty eyes: "Yunying, do you know that in this harem, only the cold palace is the safest place, so that you can live the rest of your life safely and live to old age."
I tiredly waved my hand to Xiao Quanzi who was stunned there: "Xiao Quanzi, please step aside first."
The next day, I got up early and went out with Yun Ying to visit Concubine Xie De in Pingyi Palace in the south, that is, my aunt. But at the moment I think she wanted to see me more than I did.
My aunt is always waiting for me to help her ascend to the position of queen. How can I let her down?
Pingyi Palace.
The lush green trees along the way are like deep flower paths. Seeing such simplicity, it feels like being in Xie's Mansion. However, it is more cold. Is it because the emperor has not set foot in it for a long time, so it is less popular? I never know,
My proud and domineering aunt actually arranged her palace in such a low-key manner, or because the emperor liked it...
There was a eunuch waiting at the door. When he saw Yun Ying and I, he led us in directly, not forgetting to say respectfully: "Master Jieyu, the master has been waiting in the hall for a long time. Please come this way." He kept his head lowered.
It's hanging down and I can't even see it.
"You're here." Sitting on the main seat
"Yes. Aunt. How have you been these past few years? Daddy has been asking me to greet you after I enter the palace." I bowed my head and said respectfully.
"Really?" I saw from the corner of my eye that her nails were covered in cyan. Like her face, she always felt cold and heavy. As if everything was expected and she was very calm.
"You guys go down first." My aunt calmly swept away the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs, and they all bowed down. Not even Yun Ying stayed behind.
She looked at me with a seemingly gentle look and said, "I won't beat around the bush. My brother must have told you the purpose of entering the palace."
"Yes, daddy said it."
"Then you know what you're going to do."
"Ying'er has been here for so long and she has been ill. She has not been able to help my aunt, and she still has her worry about Ying'er. Ying'er is really——" At the end of the sentence, I choked up and burst into tears. I was pretending to be sincere enough.
Bar.
"My aunt doesn't blame you for what happened in the past. My aunt also did something wrong. You have to take good care of your health. Our aunt and nephew are in this deep palace, we have to love each other and communicate frequently." If it weren't for the look in her eyes.
Without any emotion, I was almost moved by the sadness on her face and her concern for me. Unfortunately, those eyes couldn't deceive me.
However, I still cooperated and cried softly, hugged my concubine and stood up and came over to hug me.
"I know, aunt." I replied obediently, looking like a skillful and weak woman in a boudoir.
This woman is not as demure and innocent as she seems.
I also remembered that I once saw a man sighing: The harem is indeed the world of women. Men here can never imagine the true thoughts of women. Otherwise, how can they say that a woman's heart is like a needle in the sea of the sea.
