"It's just Master..." Seeing Tong Jia's eyes glancing over, Wu De quickly lowered his eyes and said: "Zhou Yong humiliated this slave in public, how can I have the shame to go back? Even if I go, I will lose the master's face!" At this moment,
He was still unwilling to give in and tried to provoke the Tong Jia family and make her take action against Zhou Yong and even the Niu Hulu family.
How could he hide his little thoughts from Tong Jia? He sneered and flicked his nails painted with bright red dandelions into a cherry blossom pattern. The spring sun shone through the window on those hands, and there was an unusual coquettishness, "It's your face."
What’s more important, or is my business more important?”
This question made Wu De dare not say anything. He lay on the ground and listened quietly to Tong Jia's continued: "Although Zhou Yong punished you, he did not remove you from your job, so you are still the manager of the Yuanmingyuan kitchen, no
People can make irresponsible remarks. Go back and keep an eye on the Niu Hulu clan for me! Or leave the capital, your choice."
Having seen the prosperity of the capital, Wu De was still willing to go back to that poor place. He immediately agreed hurriedly: "I am willing to be my master's body and bones, and my liver and brains will be wiped out!"
"Remember what you said and retreat!" After Wu De carefully retreated, Huamei said to the gloomy-looking Tong Jia: "Master, it seems that Zhou Yong is ready to join the Niu Hulu clan."
"That's not the case." Tong Jia took a long breath. The room was filled with a sour smell of sweat that even the magnolias in the vases couldn't hide, and her delicate eyebrows suddenly furrowed.
, open the long window at hand and let the wind come in to dispel the smell.
"Zhou Yong has always been the fourth master's man. He should not offend too much in front of the Niu Hulu family. Moreover, he also left a little leeway in Wu De's matter. Otherwise, how could Wu De still be able to withstand it?
I'm just worried about Fourth Master's attitude towards Niu Hulu..." She paused and said uncertainly: "It seems to be different from before."
Although Yinzhen never came forward about Wu De's matter, we can barely see some of Yinzhen's attitude from Zhou Yong. If Yinzhen didn't pay attention to the Niu Hulu family, Zhou Yong would never do it because of her words.
This point.
The Niu Hulu clan really made her resurrect, but it didn't matter. She could get rid of the Niu Hulu clan once and then the second time! She touched her beautiful cheek with her hand, and the uneasiness in her heart disappeared instantly. As long as this face was still there
Now, she will never lose, Niu Hulu, next time, I want you to never stand up!
A few days later, when Ling Ruo was delivering soup to Kangxi, she met Qiu Ci. She was still so beautiful, no, I should say more beautiful than before. Surrounded by pearls and greenery, she was dignified and elegant, just like the harem.
Those concubines.
Seeing Ling Ruo, Qiu Ci burst into tears before saying anything. She quickly came over and held Ling Ruo's cold hand tightly, "Sister, I finally see you. I thought I would never see you again in this life. I heard that you were crazy. I
I don't know how worried I am. Come on, let me see if everything is really fine?" He opened some distance and looked at Ling Ruo carefully.
Ling Ruo smiled slightly and shook her equally cold hand, "Don't worry, sister, I'm fine."
"That's good!" Qiu Ci let out a long breath, caressed the thin silver earrings hanging around Ling Ruo's neck and said distressedly: "I must have suffered a lot to be so thin. Alas, I wanted to see you several times.
I can't help but can't get out of the palace."
"It's enough that I know my sister's heart, but how are you doing in the palace these years?" Ling Ruo reached out to wipe away the tears hanging from Qiu Ci's face, with a smile hanging between her eyebrows, as if she was really overwhelmed.
She was happy, but only she knew that such a smile was just a mask on her face. Her tears, laughter, joy and anger were all painted with fine brushwork and had nothing to do with her heart.
If she is like this, why not Qiu Ci? Everyone is hypocritical...
At this moment, she suddenly missed that woman who was as light as tea and as wise as orchid. She was like a clear lotus in the deep palace emerging from the mud without being stained!
Qiu Ci didn't notice Ling Ruo's thoughts, and kindly pulled her to sit down together, "Everyone is the same in the palace, there is no good or bad. After all, the emperor has treated me well these years, and often takes me with him.
Come to Changchun Garden to relax, you don’t have to look at the four red walls every day." At this point.
She sighed, held Ling Ruo's hand tightly and said: "My only regret is that you can't be by my side, otherwise it would be great if you and I were sisters in the same palace, supporting each other! It's all the fault of Concubine Rong.
It is extremely hateful to point you out to Fourth Brother as a princess out of selfish revenge!"
Ling Ruo endured the boredom in her heart and smiled sweetly: "Maybe this is my life, and sister doesn't need to feel sorry for me. Also, no matter where I go, my heart will always be with my sister, and you will be with me in this life."
My good sister!"
Qiu Ci was greatly moved when she heard this. He held her and talked for a while, until the sun set in the west, and then he reluctantly let go of her hand and returned to Biyunju.
Until Qiu Ci left and disappeared, Mo Yufang stroked his arm and said with a cold face: "If the master hadn't said it beforehand, I would never have thought that Jinggui is such a scheming person. It's really hypocritical." Looking at Jing, he said.
Mo Yu really got goosebumps all over her body when she thought about how affectionate the noble man was to his master just now, and when he thought about how she had gone to the Crown Princess to tell the truth, which caused the master to be caught by Concubine Rong and sent to the fourth elder brother's house.
"She is not the only one who is hypocritical." Ling Ruo answered calmly and turned around to leave, not wanting to mention it further.
At night, Yinzhen came to see her and mentioned the matter of returning home. He had lived in the Old Summer Palace for many days and it was time to go back. And only after returning home could he give Ling Ruo a title. Ling Ruo did not
He objected and only said that he would return home after Kangxi recovered from his cough.
Naturally, Yinzhen would not object to this, so he hugged Ling Ruo and fell asleep together. When he slept until midnight, he was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door.
"What's the matter?" Yinzhen asked while lying on the bed, but he didn't feel any displeasure at all. The person guarding the door now was either the dog or Zhou Yong. These two people had been with him since childhood and knew how to measure.
You would never disturb yourself by knocking on the door like this if there is no emergency.
Sure enough, the dog's anxious voice came from outside the door, "Fourth Master! Eunuch Xi is here and says something happened in Changchun Garden."
This sentence scared away the last bit of sleepiness from Yinzhen, and he quickly put on his clothes and got up to go out. Ling Ruo, who was awakened by a sound, vaguely heard a few words like "Prince" and "Palace", but he couldn't understand the specifics. After a while,
Yinzhen walked in and could see through the candlelight that his face was extremely ugly. He caught a glimpse of Ling Ruo staring at him, taking off the clothes on the hangers and dressing them neatly without saying a word.
"Is Fourth Master going out?" Ling Ruo sat up and asked worriedly.
Yinzhen turned around, squeezed out an extremely ugly smile and said: "Something happened in Changchun Garden. I have to go and check on people. I don't know when I will be back. You can sleep on your own."
After Yinzhen left in a hurry, Mo Yu, who heard the commotion, came over and saw Ling Ruo alone, and said in surprise: "Where is the prince?"
Ling Ruo casually took a piece of clothing and put it on her slightly chilly body. She covered her mouth and yawned, saying, "I was afraid that something big had happened in Changchun Garden, so I came to invite the fourth master to the garden overnight; it's probably related to the prince."
