In November, the late autumn wind became biter day by day, but the sun was extremely clear, shining brightly on the window paper of the inner room of the natural painting.
At noon, people from Jiuzhou Qingyan came over to inform Concubine Chen that the emperor was coming in the evening.
After receiving the notice, Ji Ling immediately asked the dining room to prepare hot water. She used three large baskets of dried rose petals for this bathing trip. Qilin was so smoked that she sneezed several times, and finally rushed to the hospital with a look of disgust.
In the yard, with his mouth open and his little pink tongue sticking out, he was panting towards the goldfish pond.
After Ji Ling came out of the bath, she felt like she was about to turn into a walking rose-flavored perfume bottle.
On the contrary, the third princess liked the sweet-smelling forehead very much, and stretched out her little hands to coquettishly want to hug her.
Sure enough, girls are irresistible to all things that smell good!
Ji Ling asked the wet nurse to bring the third princess over. She held her daughter in her arms and walked to the dressing table to sit down. She spread all the rouge and gouache on the table.
Qixi waited for her master to dry her hair, and then she saw her master was stunned for a while while looking at the cosmetics on the table. However, the third princess was riding on her lap, looking at the table full of colorful flowers and green willows. She was almost overjoyed, and she pulled it with one hand.
Holding the lapel on E Niang's chest, the other hand touched the lipstick on the table.
Ji Ling lowered her head and thought about her makeup for a while. She didn't pay much attention to her daughter's movements. After a while, she lowered her head and saw the third princess holding a lip brush in her hand. The lipstick in the small porcelain cup had already been wiped by her.
Smear it all on your face and draw it into a little cat.
Ji Ling:……
Seeing this, Qixi quickly went out and urged Evian to bring warm water in. After the third princess wiped off the lipstick on her face, Ji Ling kissed her sweet and soft little face and asked the wet nurse to take the third princess away.
Then he reached out to the dressing table and picked up a brightly colored lamp that was rarely used on weekdays.
Ji Ling held the lip brush in her hand, rolled it repeatedly in the porcelain cup, licked the rich color all over the end of the brush, then adjusted the color on the back of her hand, then raised her eyes and looked at the person in the mirror quietly.
She raised her hand and began to draw it carefully.
Qixi stood aside quietly, looking at her master like this, thinking deeply in her heart, so she tried her best to comb Ji Ling's sideburns in a charming way.
When Yinzhen came over in the evening, he just called Ji Ling, who was bending over to greet her and bowed, and his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but praise: "Lingling looks really good tonight!"
Ji Ling wore a bright crimson flag dress today. Her ears and hair were clean, without any jewelry, which made her black hair look even more beautiful.
Only a little bit of peach blossom makeup is smudged at the end of the eyes, like a hangover.
This is a style that Yinzhen has never seen before.
After the third princess fell into the water, Lingling was in a very low mood for a while. Seeing her like this, Yinzhen felt depressed from time to time.
At this time, when he saw Lingling looking up at him with a smile as bright as a flower - he felt relieved and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
Yinzhen held Ji Ling's hand and realized that Lingling's hands were already cold from the cold.
He put his arms around her and touched the texture of her clothes - as expected, the clothes were very thin. Yinzhen couldn't help but said in a low voice: "Even if you love beauty, you can't make fun of your own body.
"
As he spoke, he glanced at Qixi next to him.
Qixi was so frightened that her legs went weak and she immediately knelt down.
Ji Ling held Yinzhen's arm and admitted her mistake to him with a smile: "I was wrong. I will definitely not dare to do it next time."
The two people walked into the back room.
It's already November, and it won't be long before the winter solstice - all the palaces and gardens in the Old Summer Palace have already been warmed up. The clothes she wears are from the style of summer and autumn, and are indeed a bit thin.
Ji Ling shrank her shoulders. She was wearing it to match today's makeup and hair style.
Yinzhen hugged her arm tightly and led her inside.
After getting into the room, I saw the third princess sleeping soundly on the bed. The two of them took a shower and rested. Ji Ling was like a frightened little animal, obediently burying her head in Yinzhen's arms.
Still motionless.
Yinzhen raised his hand and stroked her hair, feeling something strange, and whispered: "Lingling, what's going on?"
Ji Ling said nothing.
Yinzhen lifted her face up and stared at her for a long time.
He knew that Lingling was not only a loser, but also a crybaby, but after looking at her for a long time, there was no glimmer in Lingling's eyes.
"No, you idiot, you must be hiding something from me." Yinzhen put his arm around her shoulders and said firmly.
He raised his hand to tug her ears, then held her hand, forcing her to raise her eyes.
He looked into the eyes of the person in his arms and stared for a long time. He felt that Ji Ling's demeanor tonight was very strange, and he couldn't help but said softly: "Lingling, if you need anything, tell me! Don't be afraid."
Hearing his tone, Ji Ling's eyes suddenly felt a little hot, and a warm current surged through her heart.
Yinzhen has a keen mind and extraordinary vision. In front of him, she can't hide her thoughts.
He could accurately detect her emotional changes every time - which didn't surprise her at all.
But what's rare is that with a temperament like Yinzhen's, he is always 100% patient and careful when facing her.
He is true and has always loved and protected her wholeheartedly.
Ji Ling raised her arms and hugged Yinzhen's waist, burying her head in his chest. Listening to the powerful heartbeat, she whispered two words for a while, "I'm afraid."
Yinzhen's heart trembled, and then he realized that although the third princess fell into the water, it was not serious, but it was dangerous, and he was afraid when he thought about it.
In the end, it still left a lingering cloud in Lingling's heart.
Thinking of this, Yinzhen felt guilty.
He hugged Ji Ling's hand tightly, his eyes turned cold, but his tone was extremely soft: "Lingling, don't be afraid, I'm here, I already have a plan."
Ji Ling looked up and saw the fourth master's eyes full of self-blame.
She raised her hand, hugged Fourth Master's neck, and whispered: "Your Majesty, I always have trouble sleeping these days, and sometimes I have nightmares..."
When Ji Ling said this, he paused, grabbed Yinzhen's sleeve, looked at the guilt in his eyes, and said pitifully in a low voice: "It would be great if the emperor could stay with me more..."
Yinzhen lowered his head, smelling the scent of roses in her hair. He thought that Lingling had been restrained in the past and had never said such words. Thinking that this time, he was really scared. He couldn't help but feel even more distressed. He nodded without hesitation: "
Okay, Lingling, I'll stay with you."
Ji Ling immediately raised his face and said with a smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Yinzhen patted her back gently over and over again, and whispered: "Lingling, even if you don't tell me tonight, I also want to mention this matter - there is another courtyard on the side of Qingyan in Jiuzhou, named
For the sake of peace and tranquility, I have made plans in the past few days to bring you and Xi'er over, and then we can do this after we have someone to clean and arrange the place."
Ji Ling suddenly raised his head, looked at Yinzhen in surprise, and blurted out: "In the Qingyan of Jiuzhou?"
Yinzhen nodded, adjusted the posture of hugging her, then smiled slightly and said, "You're not worried now, are you?"
