It was extremely warm in the car. Rouge shivered and shivered, and then she felt the warmth covering her whole body, which was extremely comfortable.
Xiao Weizi glanced at her and took out a piece of cake wrapped in a coarse cloth handkerchief from his arms and gave it to her. Yanzhi had been hungry all day and night, and stars were already shining in front of her eyes. She grabbed it and took it with her hands, and quickly stuffed it into her mouth.
.
Seeing that she was devouring her food, Xiao Weizi remained silent. He waited until she had swallowed the last bite of the pastry before asking her, "Yanzhi, what are your plans now?".
Yanzhi swallowed, raised her hand and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. Listening to the rumble of the carriage outside the curtain and the gurgling of the rain, she said dejectedly: "I'm in this situation, what else can I plan to do!".
Xiao Weizi walked outside the palace all year round and was a very smart person. When Yanzhi said this, he knew that she was unwilling to reveal her true plan in front of others. He did not force it, sat aside, raised his head and walked silently from the car.
Looking at the street scene outside through the gap in the curtain, when he saw Ruijingzhai passing by the famous restaurant in the capital, he turned to look at Yanzhi and said sympathetically: "We are all out of the palace, so let's relax at least. What do you want to eat?
”.
Yanzhi didn't even raise his head and said, "How can the restaurants on this street compare with those in the palace? I won't touch them."
When Xiao Weizi heard what she said, he sighed inconspicuously, took out a package from the base of the carriage, handed it to Yanzhi, and said, "This is Master Nian's wish, to help you on your journey."
Yanzhi took it and was about to open it when Xiaoweizi stretched out his hand to stop it and said: "There's no rush now. I'll take my time when I get off the car."
Yanzhi weighed the parcel in his hand and felt it was light and fluffy. It seemed like something like paper was inside. The masters in the palace often gave broken silver notes to their slaves. It must have been some broken silver notes.
The carriage moved faster and faster. After a while, Rouge only heard that the carriage had passed the city gate. The bustling people outside gradually became quieter. She raised the door curtain and saw that she had left the city. She couldn't help but wonder: "
Xiao Weizi, Master Nian asked you to give me a ride, where are you sending me?".
Xiao Weizi didn't answer, and Yanzhi sensed something was wrong, reached out and slapped the driver on the back, and scolded: "Stop the car! Let me get off!".
The coachman ignored her and just drove the carriage blindly. Yanzhi became more and more panicked and wanted to jump out of the car, staring at the passing yellow soil on the ground, but he didn't dare.
She grabbed Xiao Weizi's sleeve and begged: "Xiao Weizi, he doesn't speak, but we have friendship! Please tell me, where exactly is Master Nian going to send me?!".
Xiao Weizi pulled his sleeves out of her hands, lowered his head silently, and said nothing.
The carriage finally came to a stop. Yanzhi lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage. She saw only a slope and wild forest everywhere. She couldn't see half a person anywhere, and she was filled with fear.
Seeing Xiao Weizi also getting out of the car and walking towards him, Yanzhi stepped back step by step and accidentally stepped on a piece of sand with his heel. The sand wrapped in the loess and fell down from the high slope.
I saw the coachman making a few hoarse sounds like "Ahhh" and gesturing towards Xiao Weizi, as if to urge him.
He is actually a mute!
Xiao Weizi glanced at the coachman, finally turned around and took out a very thick hemp rope from the crack of the carriage, and walked towards Yanzhi. Although every step he took was not fast, he was very determined.
When he arrived in front of Yanzhi, he said in a short voice: "This is Master Nian's wish. Don't blame me. We are all slaves and I am just following orders. You go on your way and find a good family in the next life!".
He paused, raised his hand to stretch the hemp rope, and said comfortingly: "My hands are more comfortable, so it won't be too uncomfortable."
Rouge trembled her lips and wanted to speak out, but her legs went weak. When she came to her senses, the thick hemp rope had been slowly wrapped around her delicate neck.
There were tears in Yanzhi's eyes. She stretched out her hand and grabbed the collar of Xiao Weizi's chest and said harshly: "I wholeheartedly ran for Master Nian. It's the Queen's fault! It's fine that Master Nian didn't save me. Now I have been expelled."
After leaving the palace, why did Master Nian insist on taking my life?"
She stretched out her hand to grab the hemp rope and said urgently: "Before entering the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Mr. Nian had already made a secret love with me... He had already made a love with me! Xiao Weizi, go back and tell Mr. Nian! Even for the sake of Mr. Nian.
, don’t kill me either…”.
Xiao Weizi tied the knot of the hemp rope in an orderly manner and said in a deep voice: "Master Nian already knows, that's why I can't spare you.".
After he said the last word, he tightened the knot neatly.
Rouge's whole body twitched, and her hands convulsively grabbed at the rain-wet ground. After struggling for a while, her body finally tilted and became motionless.
Xiao Weizi patted the dust on his sleeves, stood up slowly, untied the package that fell from Yanzhi's hand, and suddenly raised his hand and threw it into the air.
Paper money fell all over the sky and was wetted by the rain in an instant.
…
The weather changed at every turn, and when Ji Ling returned to the east courtyard of Jingyang Palace, the rain had already fallen.
Xiao Fenzi took a sixteen-bone oil-paper umbrella and came up to greet him. He was waiting eagerly at the gate of the palace, but when he saw Ji Ling coming back, he hurriedly ran forward to greet him and said with a smile: "What a coincidence! The master has just come back.
, the rain has fallen. If it had been delayed for a while, the rain would have drenched the master."
Qixi took the umbrella from his hand and tilted the umbrella so that it completely covered Ji Ling's head. The raindrops on the umbrella formed a line and fell down like strings of beads.
Qixi urged: "Master, hurry in, it's rainy and windy, be careful not to catch a cold."
While talking, the group of people had already entered the east courtyard. Ji Ling saw that the new dining room was already looking good, so he turned around and took a look. At this time, the rain began to fall, and four or five working eunuchs were struggling to pull it.
A huge oil paper cloth covered the wooden frame.
Someone saw Ji Ling at a glance, and quickly wiped the rain off his face, and rushed over and said: "Minions, please send your regards to the noble Lord Ji. May the noble Lord Jin be safe!".
Gillington stopped and saw several people with rainy faces and hunched shoulders. He felt very pitiful and said: "I am not in a hurry to work in the east yard. Since it is raining, you should go and take shelter under the eaves.
, it’s not too late to wait until the weather gets better.”
Several people looked at each other, and someone murmured: "Slaves don't dare! Eunuch Chen obeys the emperor's decree and wants to complete the new dining room of your noble lord as soon as possible...".
Ji Ling blinked and said, "Of course I have something to say, so you can rest assured."
She spent the whole night being warm and cozy in the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, and when she returned to the warm bedroom, she suddenly felt a little sleepy.
Ji Ling sat on the edge of the bed, hugged the bed pillar like a koala, squinted his eyes and said to Qixi: "I'll take a nap first, and I'll be fine in a while."
Qixi walked over and closed the window. Seeing the rain hitting the green bricks in the small courtyard, which only made the flower branches tremble slightly, she said, "Master, just lie down and sleep. Anyway, it's raining so fast that you don't go to say hello. Kun
Ning Gong will not blame you. I will take off your clothes, cover you with a quilt, and have a comfortable sleep!"
She talked to herself for a while, but when Ji Ling didn't reply, she turned her head and saw that Ji Ling was lying on the pillow, snoring and sleeping.
