Xianyue suppressed a smile and said: "It's really rare that you can come up with such a way. I just wrongly blamed you. Get up."
"Thank you, Master." After Qi Kuan got up, he found that Zhichun and A Luo were still laughing, and whispered: "What's so funny? Stop laughing."
It was okay if he didn't say it, but when he did, he started laughing even harder, which made Qi Kuan so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do. After a while, A Luo stopped laughing and said, "I really didn't expect that Eunuch Qi, you actually came up with such an idea.
, it’s a shame that the palace man will believe you, doesn’t he know that you are a eunuch and can’t get married?”
A Luo said this casually without any intention, but it touched Qi Kuan's pain, making him turn pale and stop talking.
Xianyue noticed Qi Kuan's strange behavior and shouted softly: "Aluo, don't be so presumptuous!"
After being shouted at by her, A Luo just noticed the problem in his words and quickly said to Qi Kuan: "Forgive me, Mr. Qi. I didn't mean it. I just said it casually. Please don't take it offence."
Qi Kuan forced a smile and said: "What Miss A Luo said is true. I won't be surprised. It's okay, it's okay." Even so, his expression was still gloomy.
Xianyue saw this in her eyes and said: "Actually, in the palace, it is not uncommon for eunuchs and maids to have private conversations with each other and ask for help. Back then, the late emperor even personally issued a decree to reward a pair of palace maids.
People love food, so it's not surprising that Qi Kuan and the palace officials said that."
A Luo knelt down and said, "This slave made a mistake for a moment, and I realize my sin."
"Okay, this matter is over here. Over at Yikun Palace, Qi Kuan, you continue to have people watching you, but you must be careful, lest others discover your true intentions."
Qi Kuan quickly agreed, "I know this, so don't worry, Master."
Xianyue nodded. After lunch, she asked someone to fetch a few volumes of books to pass the time. As time went by, the snow outside had changed from sporadic light snow to heavy snow, falling one after another and covering the sky.
The Forbidden City with red walls and blue tiles.
Xianyue's eyes felt a little sore from reading, so she put down the book and said, "Aluo, accompany me for a walk outside."
A Luo hesitated: "But it's snowing heavily outside. If you go out now, what will you do if you get cold?"
Xianyue smiled slightly and said: "How can I be so weak? Okay, go get an umbrella."
Seeing Xianyue's persistence, A'luo had no choice but to agree. After covering Xianyue with a cloak and giving her a hand warmer, he helped her out.
The snow was falling heavily, and it was completely white. Along the way, palace people kept sweeping away the snow on the ground, but after a while, another layer would accumulate, and the cycle started again.
Xianyue said with some emotion: "It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good year. Looking at the snow today, next year should be a good year and there will be no natural disasters."
A Luo held up an umbrella and said, "Actually, my slave, natural disasters are not terrible, but man-made disasters are terrible."
Xianyue glanced at her strangely and said, "Why do you say that?"
A Luo showed a trace of pain and said softly: "Master, do you still remember how old this slave was when he was sold to the mansion?"
Xianyue thought for a moment and said: "You and I are the same age. I was six years old at the time, so you are naturally the same. Speaking of which, you have been with me for sixteen years, which is really fast."
A Luo nodded and said: "Back then, there was a drought in my hometown, and I escaped with my parents. Later, my father died of illness on the way, leaving me and my mother to depend on each other. I thought I would have a good life after escaping to the capital. Mother
Grind beans well
Hua, it shouldn't be difficult to have a full meal with this. But who knew that as soon as he arrived in the capital, he was deceived. Because of his beauty, his mother was sold to a brothel, and his slaves were sold to the master's house. This dazzling moment
, that’s sixteen years.”
This was the first time Xianyue heard A Luo talk about what happened before she entered the palace. She had asked before, but A Luo never mentioned it. She asked: "Why did you suddenly think of talking about this?"
A Luo wiped away the tears that accidentally leaked out of the corners of his eyes and said hoarsely: "It's nothing, I just thought of it suddenly."
Xianyue stroked her shoulder and said, "Don't be sad. By the way, did you ever go find your mother later?"
A Luo nodded and said: "I have looked for it, but I have never found it. I don't even know whether mother... is still alive." After speaking, she couldn't help crying, and Xianyue took the handkerchief and wiped it away.
With tears on her face, she said softly: "Don't cry. I believe your mother must still be alive, because she is still waiting to be reunited with you."
"Well, I don't cry, slave." A Luo nodded vigorously, and then said: "Actually, I am lucky. I have been with my master for the past sixteen years and have not suffered much. There are many people who have suffered more than this slave."
Xianyue tapped her forehead and chuckled: "How lucky you are, didn't you almost end up alone in the dormitory with me?"
A Luo stuck out his tongue and said, "Master said it was almost over, but now everything has cleared up, hasn't it?"
"After the rain, the sky will be sunny..." Xianyue's smile faded slightly and she said coldly: "It's too early to say this now."
A Luo knew what she was thinking and said: "I believe that this day will not be too far away. Didn't I say that the prescription prescribed by the Song Dynasty doctor is also effective for the body damaged by musk? As long as you take it on time, it may be done soon.
You can conceive a dragon fetus."
"I have been hearing this for seven years. It can be cured with just a few patches of medicine, but it may not be cured in this lifetime. And, to say the least, even if she is really pregnant, will the Emperor and the Queen Mother sit back and watch the child be born?
?”
A Luo's heart trembled and he said: "But they are already in the belly. Is it possible that the Emperor and the Queen Mother can still... can still..." At this point, she shook her head and said: "No, no.
In this way, no matter what, this child is their heir, and tiger poison does not eat its children, so how can anyone harm their own child?"
Xianyue narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a cold voice: "Once a person becomes poisonous, it is much more terrifying than a strong poison. The late emperor's deposed concubine Liu is the best example."
"I still don't believe that the Queen Mother and the Emperor would do this." Seeing that Xianyue didn't speak, Aluo said again: "Master, if we don't talk about this anymore, why don't we go back? You must be tired after being out for so long."
Xianyue was about to nod when she suddenly realized that the place where they were standing was near the right gate of Changkang. She didn't expect that she would end up here just by walking around casually.
It snowed so heavily today. I wonder if the cat froze to death. It would be better if it did, as it would save her from having to come here every day to perform. Every time she sees Yong Lian, it is a kind of torture for her. Obviously
I hate him so much, but I can't show it, and I even pretend to be close to him. It's really disgusting.
