Yinzhen smiled and raised his hand to touch her cheek, and said with doting eyes: "I also like to see you happy."
This was an ordinary love story, but when it came out of Fourth Master's mouth, Ji Ling's heart suddenly jumped.
She raised her hand and subconsciously held her chest.
Yinzhen was amused by her cute yet silly actions.
He leaned over and gently kissed the corner of her lips: "Are you going to say nothing if you are happy?"
With bright eyes, Ji Ling shook his sleeves and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace!"
Yinzhen smiled and shook his head: "I don't want to hear this - I treat you well, as I should."
He paused and said, "As long as you know, don't make it public."
Ji Ling leaned towards him and said with a smile: "I've never been that kind of tempered?"
Yinzhen smiled and took her into his arms. He lowered his head and rubbed her hair gently before saying, "Yes, my Lingling is very good."
Ji Ling grabbed the tassel of the purse on his waist and said softly: "This purse is old, but you still wear it? How about I make another one for the emperor?"
Yinzhen was thinking about the third princess, so he didn't pay attention for a while. After a while, he realized it, nodded slightly, and said in response: "Okay, do it slowly, don't bother yourself."
The room was very quiet and cozy for a while.
When it was time for dinner, Yinzhen and Ji Ling went out and sat opposite each other at the mountain table in the main hall. They saw Xiao Fenzi dragging an injured leg and making arrangements nearby.
Yinzhen lowered his head without raising his eyes. He drank a spoonful of soup and said, "His legs...will they always be like this in the future?"
Ji Ling's heart tightened, and she thought that Fourth Master disliked Xiao Fenzi's limping appearance, which was ugly, not decent enough, and not worthy of the status of the chief eunuch in the imperial concubine's palace, and wanted to replace Xiao Fenzi with him.
Already?
As soon as she raised her head, she saw that Xiao Fenzi's expression had also changed drastically - he probably thought of something with her, and even Bixue, who was serving the meal next to her, slowed down her hand movements.
You can't let Fourth Master speak first.
Ji Ling rushed over and said with a smile: "It's natural to take care of your injured muscles and bones slowly. Xiao Fenzi is still young. If you take care of him for half a year, he might be cured. I can't see anything. I'm using him."
I’m used to it.”
Yinzhen paused and looked up at her.
Ji Ling shut up.
Xiao Fenzi's face turned pale, and the look in his eyes showed a trace of inferiority that could not be concealed - this was a look that was rarely seen on his face before, and almost never seen.
Since the emperor named him, he could only kneel down.
He just knelt down and didn't dare to speak.
Yinzhen's face showed no signs of like or dislike, he just glanced at him thoughtfully: "I remember that these legs of yours are for the sixth brother."
Xiao Fenzi felt relieved and immediately kowtowed: "I am my little master, so I am willing to do anything to my heart's content. I don't dare to take credit."
Ji Ling was listening next to him, and he had some idea in his mind. While looking at Yinzhen's expression, he turned around and raised his hand and said, "Get up, the ground is cold."
As she spoke, she glanced at Bixue.
Bixue went over and helped Xiao Fenzi up, who was dragging his injured leg.
Xiao Fenzi stood up and heard Yinzhen sigh and say: "Although it has been so long, you have done a good job in saving Brother Six, so you should be rewarded for your merits."
Xiao Fenzi just stood up straight, and quickly knelt down and said: "Thank you for your grace! It's just that the emperor had already rewarded the slave at that time, and the slave really didn't dare to..."
Yinzhen raised his hand and said: "That time, everyone was rescued, and everyone was rewarded. This time..."
He paused, pointed at Xiao Fenzi and said, "I just reward you specially, what do you want?"
The main hall was extremely quiet for a while. The people standing nearby did not speak and lowered their heads. However, Qixi, Bixue and others all had smiles on their faces.
Xiao Fenzi slowly raised her head, but her eyes slipped in the direction of Bixue, her eyes slightly intoxicated.
Ji Ling's heart tightened, but she still had a smile on her face. She just looked at Xiao Fenzi deeply and said, "Xiao Fenzi, don't be in a hurry - think about it later."
When Xiao Fenzi was reminded by her master, the expression on her face suddenly became clearer, and she immediately kowtowed to her master and said: "Yes!"
Ji Ling squeezed the cold sweat on his palms: It's so dangerous...
In the Qing palace, the emperor had always been disgusted by the things the palace maids and eunuchs did to each other. Although Yinzhen did not say it explicitly, if Xiaofenzi spoke in front of the emperor while being fascinated by love, he and he might be deceived.
Bi Xue two.
Faced with this kind of thing, if she didn't say anything, or said it implicitly, because the emperor looked at her face, he would probably acquiesce, turn a blind eye, and just pretend he didn't know.
But if he really said it so openly, it would undoubtedly turn into putting something that the emperor hates in front of him, and asking him to express his attitude clearly.
Isn’t this just digging a hole for yourself?
Xiao Fenzi is usually shrewd and flexible, and reliable in doing things, but when she falls in love, she turns into a confused person who is hesitant and sloppy.
When it was time for supper, Ji Ling asked his servants to go down and served Yinzhen porridge with his own hands.
Yinzhen raised his hand tiredly and thumped his shoulders and said, "I've been really tired recently."
When Ji Ling heard what he said, he put down his chopsticks and stood up, walked slowly behind him, raised his hand and squeezed his shoulder.
Her hands were weak and she was not as good at pinching shoulders as Su Peisheng or a eunuch in Yangxin Palace, but she chose the right spot - right at the most sore and numb spot on the back of Fourth Master's neck.
Yinzhen held her hand and patted it gently. His voice was as gentle as the spring breeze: "You have little strength in your little arms and legs, but you still want to imitate Su Peisheng? Go back, sit down, and have a good meal."
Ji Ling turned back to Nuange, found the small jade hammer he usually used, took it out and tapped Yinzhen on the shoulder.
The jade was cold and the hammer was powerful. It was instantly stronger than her hand.
Yinzhen took a few blows and felt quite comfortable. He commanded her in a gentle voice: "Downward, over...and further to the left."
Ji Ling hammered for a while, but Yinzhen still couldn't bear to let her go, so he turned around and held her hand.
Ji Ling burst out laughing. In this position, she lay directly on the fourth master's shoulders. She put her arms around his neck and buried her head in the hollow of his shoulders.
Yinzhen said very gently: "Naughty."
Ji Ling's eyebrows were curved and she said: "Your Majesty, there is a small matter that I would like to ask for."
Yinzhen pulled her forward with his arms around her waist, nodded without thinking, "Just tell me."
Ji Ling felt warm in her heart every time she saw the doting look on his face.
She slipped off Yinzhen's knees, leaned her face lazily on his sleeve, and whispered softly: "Xiao Fenzi, we have a good relationship with Bixue. Over the years, we have taken care of each other like brothers and sisters..."
As she spoke, she raised her head and glanced at Yinzhen's face.
Why couldn't Yinzhen understand the meaning of her words? He was slightly surprised, then he pondered for a moment and said: "Since I am from your palace, I agree with you."
Ji Ling laughed immediately.
Yinzhen looked at Ji Ling's smiling face, but couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Lingling has a soft temper and a soft heart.
It is precisely with such a heart that he can be so loyal as her slave.
In the Old Summer Palace - Hongxin is in the depths of the cave, but Xiaofenzi is waiting for Ji Ling in the world.
It's in two places.
What's more, if we talk about the people around Concubine Chen, the first one who should risk his life to save the sixth elder brother should be Xiao Yoko who has always been by his side, not his Xiao Fenzi.
Xiao Fenzi did not hesitate and rushed into the fire scene with all his strength.
After all, something like "the human heart" cannot be forced out.
