In the natural painting, Yiquan watched helplessly as Xiao Fenziti slipped away one of the handy eunuchs in the courtyard.
In the afternoon, the handyman eunuch slipped back against the wall carrying a small net bag and a small porcelain jar.
When Xiao Fenzi finally asked her to look at it quietly, Yiquan saw six more "hibiscus fish" swimming in the pond.
Her mind, which had been in panic all day, finally calmed down.
After staring at it in disbelief for a while, Yiquan realized that this "hibiscus fish" seemed slightly different from the original one - the color was lighter, and its temperament was also very fierce. It shuttled back and forth among the pearl fish and swam very fast.
, the tail shoots splashing water.
Her heart was heavy, and she went back to the eunuch's duty room to talk to Xiao Fenzi.
Seeing her anxiety, Xiao Fenzi explained to her the tricks taught by Yu Tuozi, and finally comforted her: "It's not a big deal at all. Just cover it up and let it pass - the palace can recognize the hibiscus fish."
, except for the people from Jiuzhou Qingyan, there are not many at all.
This pond was originally built for the third princess - but the princess likes it. Besides, this fish is a living creature, so it makes sense that if the pond and water quality are changed, the color will become darker or lighter."
How old is the little master? What difference can you see?
He tried his best to comfort Yiquan, but seeing that the girl still had a faint look of anxiety on her face, he said: "But..."
Xiao Fenzi's face darkened, and he said to her solemnly: "Stop being so verbose, if you keep looking so gloomy, your master might notice the clues!"
Yiquan was frightened by him and immediately shut up, forcing a smile on his face.
Xiao Fenzi's eyes dropped for a moment. Seeing that she was worried, he deliberately changed the subject and said, "Is the injury on your knee better?"
Yiquan nodded, stretched out his hand to caress his right knee, and said, "It's just a flesh wound. It's not a problem. Don't worry."
After hearing the words "Don't worry," Xiao Fenzi suddenly felt something in her heart. An indescribable feeling surged through her. She paused and said, "Is it really better? Don't show off."
As he said this, he raised his hand and touched Yiquan's knee.
Yiquan felt the pain and took a sharp breath. He subconsciously reached out to cover his knees, but his hands happened to overlap with Xiao Fenzi's.
Xiao Fenzi didn't move her hand, she lowered her head and stared at Yiquan, looking at her panicked brows under her slightly trembling bangs.
After a long while, Yiquan finally raised his face and looked at him while biting his lip.
…
Natural picture front room.
Holding a large stack of flowers in her arms, Bixue walked out of the front hall. Seeing two second-class maids in front of the court, she waved to them to come over.
Two second-class maids came running over immediately.
Bixue threw the stack of flowers to the two second-class palace maids. She stood on the steps with the aura of a high-ranking palace lady and clearly ordered: "Take these flowers out and give them to Shui Ma according to the style."
Wash the pink thread on it, dry it, iron it and then send it to me again."
The two second-class maids had smiles on their faces, nodded in agreement, and said: "Sister Bixue, don't worry, we will definitely solve it properly."
Bixue didn't say anything, her eyes wandered around, and suddenly she asked casually, "Why are there just the two of you, where is Yiquan?"
One of the two second-class maids was startled, while the other, who was usually closer to Yiquan, looked slightly hesitant at this time.
Bixue glanced at the little girl's face and said, "Just tell me if you know."
The second-class palace maid timidly said: "Slave... it seems that I saw Yiquan and went to the north wing."
The north wing is the duty room for the eunuchs. The room to the north is the largest and closest to the master. It is the wing where the chief eunuch lives.
Bixue paused in her heart, but her face remained as usual, and she just whispered: "This job is not easy. Besides, the master is waiting to be used. How can we do it without manpower! You guys sit down first, I will go find Yiquan."
She walked all the way to the north wing, and when she got closer, she saw Yiquan walking out of the corridor next to Xiaofenzi's room, head lowered, not even looking at the road, with a happy expression and a smile on her cheeks.
red.
Bixue was originally going to catch her and bring her back to do some work, but something went wrong at this time. She dodged behind the pillar next to her, and after a while, Xiao Fenzi also came out with a slight smile on her face.
She had seen that gentle look in his eyes a long time ago when he looked at her in the east courtyard of Jingyang Palace.
She just pretended not to know.
Bixue stood stiffly in place, not moving for a long time, watching the evening sun, like a red salted duck egg yolk, gradually disappearing behind the outline of the natural patterned eaves.
She only felt that her heart seemed to be gradually sinking with the sun, sinking into the unknown darkness.
…
In the evening, seeing the three princesses feeding and watching the fish as usual, Yiquan's heart slowly relaxed.
After nightfall, several second-class maids finished their work. On this day, two other junior maids were on duty.
Yiquan finally lay down in the palace maid's room.
She was like a little shrimp, curled up on the bunk, looking at the two empty bunks next to her, her mind gradually settled down.
Yiquan began to wonder - who tricked him this time?
She has a low status and is just a second-class palace maid. She has a careful smile on everyone she sees in this natural painting. If she offends, at least on the surface, she cannot offend anyone.
The two eldest maids above, especially Sister Qixi, can now be seen by everyone - she is focusing on cultivating Yiyun, but where can she see a second-class little maid like Yiquan?
As for Nanny Chen and the others, even less so - Nanny Chen's thoughts are all focused on pleasing her master and mistress all day long, so how can she have time to take care of her?
Yiquan thought for a while, hugged his knees and sat up, still having no idea.
…
The weather was fine on the second day. In the lake in front of the Old Summer Palace, the sky was bright and clear.
To the west of Zhengda Guangming Hall is the Lotus Pavilion, which is the residence given to the two elder brothers by the emperor.
The fourth elder brother, Hongli, and the fifth elder brother, Hong Zhou, were similar in age. In this Old Summer Palace, they did not dare to relax in their studies at all, so they went to school together.
The Lotus Pavilion is a courtyard-style building, spanning from east to west, with the bedroom to the east and the study to the west. The area of the study is more than double that of the bedroom.
After crossing the triple gate hall, you can see the east-west corridor. Walking westward and bypassing the corridor, you will find the Hanbi Hall, followed by Lin Xu Guijing. It is just in time with the crisp autumn weather, warm winter and warm summer.
It's cool and the best place to live.
Hong Zhou held a volume of book in his hand and walked briskly from the corridor. The yellow belt around his waist shone brightly in the morning sun.
Behind him were a group of minions, trotting along and calling Fifth Brother.
After walking around the corner of the corridor, Hong Zhou turned his head and saw Hong Li standing in front of the desk under the window with his shoulders straight and his head down, concentrating on writing something.
