After waiting for a cup of tea, Jade finally opened the door. Xiao Ningzi was about to leave, but she heard Jade say again: "I remember a few days ago, the quilt you took for Eunuch Fu has not been returned to me.
, Now that the weather is getting colder, my own bed is not warm enough, so I have to go to Eunuch Fu to get it back."
"Tomorrow I will go get it back for you." After waiting for so long, Xiao Ningzi was already quite impatient, and her tone was not good.
Jade could certainly hear it, but this time she was surprisingly tough, "No, I already felt cold just now. Before you can bring it tomorrow, I might catch a cold today. Eunuch Fu's residence is right next to me.
Next to it, it won’t take much time to go over there.”
"When did my aunt and Eunuch Fu become so unreasonable?" Xiao Ningzi murmured softly. Seeing Feicui's long face, she reluctantly agreed: "Well, please hurry up, aunt."
After these words, Xiao Ningzi followed Feicui to Sanfu's residence. At that time, the leaks in the roof caused by the last heavy rain and wind had been repaired, and Sanfu also returned to his house.
After knocking on the door for a while, Sanfu came out sleepily to open the door, and saw Feicui and Xiao Ningzi standing outside with a strange expression on their faces, "What's the matter?"
Before Xiao Ningzi could speak, Feicui stepped forward and said, "Have you used the bedding you brought from my house a few days ago? I'm still waiting to use it."
"This..." Sanfu didn't react for a while, and after a while he said: "That's good, but do you want to take it back now?"
Jade immediately said: "Put it away first, and come and get it after I see the master." When he turned to leave, without Xiao Ningzi seeing him, he threw the hand behind his back to where Sanfu was standing, and everyone was there.
The small, eye-catching paper ball fell at Sanfu's feet.
Sanfu stood there calmly. After the two of them walked away, he quickly picked up the paper ball and entered the house. Based on his understanding of Jade, he would never run in just for a ball of quilt. Presumably,
There is another reason.
Sanfu sat under the newly lit candle and unfolded the paper, and saw scrawled writing on it: Xiao Ningzi looked strangely and ordered me to see the master overnight. According to my guess, it is very likely that he heard what we said.
So as to tell the master. Whether it is you or me
Your affair, or what you said, violated the master's taboo. I'm afraid that my departure will be unlucky. I can't escape, but you can escape. Leave Kunning Palace quickly, and don't be brought to the master.
, don’t worry about me, you must cherish yourself and save your life!
At the end of the paper ball, there is a drop of smudged tears. It can be imagined that Jade must have been feeling very sad when writing this paragraph.
Jade! Sanfu suddenly squeezed the paper in his hand tightly. The thing he feared most finally happened, Xiao Ningzi! This damn bastard, he kept calling the master affectionate in his mouth, but he betrayed her secretly without any ambiguity.
No! He can't let Jade face danger alone, let alone watch Jade die!
Thinking like this, he subconsciously wanted to rush out, but when he came to the door, he held back. Even if he went now, what could he do? It was just to let the master attack him early, not to mention that Jade took the risk to tell him.
It's nothing more than those eight words on the paper: cherish your own kindness and save your life.
Life... In this situation, the first thing Jade thought of was him, his life!
Sanfu was so sad that he lowered his head and unfolded the note and read it again, feeling increasingly sad. Jade wanted to save his life, so she asked him to leave Kunning Palace, but where could he escape after leaving?
In the harem, as long as Nala gives an order, he can be captured immediately. In this Forbidden City with red walls and blue tiles, there is no place for him to hide.
But it doesn't matter if he dies, but Jade cannot die. He must save Jade, he must save her!
Under this thought, Sanfu nervously thought about countermeasures, but in the end he discovered that once Nala decided to do something, he couldn't do anything at all. As for begging for mercy, that was even more wishful thinking. Over the years, Nala's
The methods are becoming more and more severe day by day. It can be said that those who obey will prosper and those who go against will perish.
No matter how you look at it, he and Jade have no life at all, even if they have served Nala for twenty or thirty years.
Not to mention that Sanfu was in despair, Feicui followed Xiao Ningzi to the back of the inner hall, and saw Nala sitting on the bedside with her eyes closed. She calmed herself down and bowed her knees, "This slave is paying my respects to the master. I don't know that the master has been waiting all night."
Call the slaves here, what are your instructions?"
Nala opened his eyes slightly and motioned for Jade to come closer. After Jade followed his instructions and knelt on the pedal, Nala slowly stroked his face and said, "Jade, how old are you this year? How old are you when you come to my side?"
How many years has it been?”
Nala didn't wear armor, but when her fingers touched Jade's skin, it was like cold armor, and she couldn't find a trace of warmth. Jade endured the discomfort on her face and said carefully: "To return to the master, slave this year
Thirty-nine to forty, and I have been serving my master for exactly thirty years."
"So you have been serving me since you were fourteen?" After Jade nodded, she added: "So fast, thirty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and I and you are both in their forties.
Even if you live for a hundred years, it will only last for three or thirty years, and I don’t think I am blessed with such a long life.”
Hearing this, Jade hurriedly shook her head: "No, the master is the mother of the world, and his blessings will be endless."
"Really? Then tell me, how have I treated you over the years?" His fingers slowly slid down from Jade's cheek to his snow-white neck. Before Jade could react, he picked it up with his little finger, accurately.
He picked out a red rope from the emerald clothing and food, and brought out two black pearls with a faint luster.
As soon as she saw these two black pearls, Jade suddenly cried out in agony. How could she forget to take them off? If Xiao Ningzi really told the truth, wouldn't these two black pearls become the secret between her and San?
Is there irrefutable evidence of Fu’s affair?!
Nala didn't seem to recognize these two beads, but said slowly: "Why don't you answer what I said, but I don't treat you well?"
Jade suddenly came back to her senses, shook her head and said: "No, the master is as kind as a mountain to the slave. Even if the slave is broken into pieces, it is difficult to repay him."
Nala smiled slightly, and then the next moment, his fingers suddenly tightened, and the thin red rope drew a deep groove around Jade's neck, "If that's the case, then why did you and Sanfu join forces to betray me?"
?explain!"
Jade's neck was strangled, and Jade suddenly couldn't breathe smoothly, but she didn't dare to struggle, so she could only say reluctantly: "Master has misunderstood, slave and Sanfu have always been loyal to the master, how dare they betray the master!"
