Qi Yue finally crossed the threshold of the Imperial Palace.
It's just a small threshold, and it took so much effort to cross it. Qi Yue couldn't help but let out a sigh in her heart. She is really a coward. Qi Yueniang, Qi Yueniang, your status is really not easy to mess with...
She waved her fan and looked around as she walked, with admiration in her eyes. The courtyard was really nicely decorated, with a majestic atmosphere but without losing the warmth of living.
"The prince has been back for so long. I was sick at first and didn't come out. Now I have come out and taken over the housework. I am very busy. I only have time today to see how well the decoration is and if there is anything I can add." Qi Yue said with a smile.
, the expression on his face returned to calmness and calmness, without any trace of the sharpness just now.
There's no point in worrying about it... The girls who heard this said at the same time.
Qiuxiang even sneered.
No matter what they were thinking, Qi Yue had already stepped up the steps and headed towards the main room.
This time Qiu Xiang didn't stop her. Instead, she wished Qi Yue could stay a little longer. If you are really brave, just wait until the prince comes back...
For this idea, she stopped the little girls from going to the madam to report.
Qiuxiang saw that Aru had all gone in, so she went in herself.
Qi Yue had already walked around the room, with some surprise in her eyes.
It's different from Jia Baoyu's house described in the book. It doesn't look very luxurious. There's no scent of powder on your nose. It's clean, spacious and quite comfortable.
She looked at the canopy bed in the bedroom. The hollow carving patterns on it were simple and beautiful. It was much prettier than the bed in her room. She couldn't help but touch and look at it.
"Hey, Aru, what kind of wood is this?" she asked in a low voice.
"Rosewood." Aru also replied in a low voice, while pulling Qi Yue, "Young lady..."
"If you take this back, it will be worth your money..." Qi Yue sighed, turning to look at Aru, "What's wrong?"
A Ru signaled with her eyes that four or five girls standing a few steps away stared at them, their faces unabashedly showing their mocking disdain for people from the countryside who came to the city like bumpkins.
Qi Yue coughed, straightened her body, and slowly walked out to the opposite room. There was an Arhat bed, tables and chairs, several standing cabinets, papers and pens, and a pair of pens hanging on the wall.
Sword.
"Not bad, not bad, the layout is quite good." Qi Yue nodded in praise, sitting on the Arhat bed. The brocade mattress was soft and very comfortable to the touch.
The prince's house looks inconspicuous, but it turns out that it is filled with good things. It is indeed the low-key luxury pursued by the nobles.
"Young lady, please have tea..." Qiuxiang said with a smile.
Of course, a big girl like her would not personally serve tea to the young lady. She just waved her hand and a little girl came over with tea.
Qi Yue smiled at her.
"Thank you Miss Qiuxiang." she said.
Qiuxiang also smiled and accepted it calmly.
Qi Yue picked up the tea and took a sip, and began to learn about Dream of Red Mansions, common plots on TV, and when Master Shi went to bed and what books he read. Qiu Xiang looked more and more impatient when he asked.
outside.
"Aru..." Qi Yue put down the teacup and seemed to get up.
"Young madam, please sit down for a while." Qiuxiang said hurriedly.
Don't go, I haven't waited for the prince yet, I haven't seen the show yet.
Qi Yue, however, raised her legs and changed her sitting position, then picked up a book from the small kang table of the Luohan bed. Hearing her words, he looked at her with a bit of strangeness.
"Miss Qiuxiang, you seem to be in a hurry to let me go?" she asked with a smile.
| "I don't dare." Qiuxiang laughed quickly, this time her smile was sincere.
Qi Yue smiled and ignored her, lowering her head to read the book in her hand.
"Aru, go ahead and ask someone to bring the bedding and combing hair, and arrange the rest slowly." She said seemingly casually.
Finally said it, finally heard it. Aru had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and she stopped breathing for a moment.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room was stunned.
"Young madam, what did you say?" Qiuxiang asked in disbelief.
"I'm moving here." Qi Yue looked at her and looked strange at her words, "What's wrong?"
Qiuxiang looked at her in disbelief.
"You...you..." She stammered and couldn't speak.
Qi Yue was too lazy to pay attention to her and directly gave orders to the girls in the room.
"I have just recovered from my illness now, and I am busy arranging housework, so I will not stay in this room, so as not to disturb the prince's rest..." She looked at the table with her fingers, looked at the yard through the open window, and finally fell to a suitable distance.
location, "Just clear out the third wing on the east side."
Is she crazy? Qiu Xiang and other girls stared at Qi Yue with only this thought in their mind.
"Madam, are you kidding me?" Qiuxiang asked stammering.
"Are you kidding me? What kind of joke am I kidding you, a girl?" Qi Yue sneered and replied with the half-smiling expression she had just now.
The meaning of these words is not to give face at all...
There was shame and annoyance in Qiuxiang's eyes.
"Young madam, that slave takes it seriously." She stopped smiling, stood up straight and said.
"Seriously, it's not like I have nothing to do." Qi Yue flirted with her and then spoke to Aru, "...Don't move the furniture around, bring new ones from the warehouse..."
Aru lowered his head and responded.
"Young Madam." Qiu Xiang interrupted Qi Yue's words and raised her voice.
Qi Yue stopped talking and looked at her.
"Young madam, you can't live here." Qiuxiang looked at her coldly and said.
Qi Yue put down the book in her hand.
"Why?" she asked with a smile.
"Because the prince won't let you live here." Qiuxiang raised her chin and said.
"Really?" Qi Yue was neither anxious nor annoyed. He just looked at her and smiled, "Isn't it? How could it be?"
Qiuxiang felt like her teeth were about to break.
The prince doesn’t like you at all and looks down on you. Who are you? You are a beggar and an orphan. You burn incense to have a place to sleep in Dingxihou Mansion. You even brazenly said that you would move to the prince’s yard.
Come here, it’s really... shameless!
Don't force me, if you force me again, I will really say it! But you are shameless!
"Because His Majesty ordered it." She squeezed out these words through her teeth.
Qi Yue still smiled.
"Why didn't he tell me?" she laughed.
Because the prince doesn't even want to see you, and he still talks to you, just dream... Qiuxiang shouted in her heart.
"It's okay. I'll ask him when he comes back." Qi Yuehun waved his hand nonchalantly and said.
Qiuxiang was startled, what did she say? Wait until the prince comes back... to ask?
Looking at Qi Yue, she lowered her head to read again...
Reading? How many words does she know? It is said that the old lady specially selected a good gentleman to teach her how to read and write. However, according to people in the old lady's courtyard, she still can't recognize a few big words...
"Sister Qiuxiang, what should I do?"
Qiuxiang exited the room and was immediately surrounded by other maids and women. They had heard the conversation in the room, and Aru had actually gone to move the bed.
"Are you really going to move here?"
Everyone asked one after another.
Qiuxiang felt as if a stone was stuck in her heart, making her unable to breathe.
She turned her head and glanced inside the room, then thought about what happened today that caused a lot of noise in the whole yard. She and the little girls were laughing and watching the fun, but she didn't expect that the fun would reach them so quickly.
It is said that this young lady is more timid than a cat who dares not even cry loudly. What I saw today is that this is not a cat, it is obviously a tiger. The tiger coming down the mountain is bound to win...
"We are all carefully selected by the Madam for the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is not here, but he can't even control the door. How can we have the dignity to stay here after being defiled by this man..." Qiuxiang twisted her handkerchief and said through gritted teeth.
, waving the handkerchief in his hand, "Block the door and never let them in!"
At this time in Ronganyuan, Mrs. Xie handed a soup to Chang Yuncheng who was lying on the Kang.
"Get up and have a taste." She said with a smile, and slapped his crossed leg, "What does it look like, if your father sees it carefully, he should say that you are not polite..."
"Sven? What's the use of being polite?" Chang Yuncheng put his hands under his neck and said with a nonchalant expression.
Xie didn't feel unhappy at all, her eyes were full of smiles.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, get up and eat quickly," she said.
Chang Yuncheng stood up and sat cross-legged in front of the kang table.
"What I miss most when I'm outside is my mother's egg drop soup." He smiled, picked up the bowl, and poured it directly into his mouth without using a spoon.
"You kid, you're hot." Ms. Xie was so frightened that she quickly stopped him.
Chang Yuncheng had already eaten half the bowl and laughed at Mr. Xie.
"You can eat anything hot or cold outside," he said nonchalantly.
Xie looked at him with red eyes.
"I'm sorry..." She raised her hand and stroked Chang Yuncheng's face, which was as sharp as a knife. "I don't know how distressed your mother is when she's underground... It's all because of me..."
"Auntie." Chang Yuncheng stretched out his hand to hold her hand and said, "If you say that again, you will offend the child."
Mr. Xie smiled.
"Okay, eat quickly." She patted Chang Yuncheng's hand, sat down aside, and watched Chang Yuncheng finish the meal in three bites.
The mother and son talked casually, and heard the whispers of a girl and a woman outside the door, who seemed a little anxious.
"What to do?" Ms. Xie shouted through the window with a serious face.
The noise outside the door stopped, and Aluan walked in quickly, looking anxious and restless, but he hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?" Xie asked.
Here Chang Yuncheng fell down and lay down after eating, not paying any attention to the fact that there was an extra person in the room.
"Madam, I don't know why the Young Madam is making a fuss over there in the Prince's courtyard." Aluan glanced at the young man lying half on the kang and said in a low voice.
As soon as Chang Yuncheng stretched his body, he stiffened.
"What?" He raised his head and looked at Aluan with a frown.
"What's going on?" Ms. Xie also frowned and asked.
"It seems that Qiuxiang bumped into the young lady for some reason. The girl from the young lady's side came over, and the two parties were making trouble in the yard..." Aluan said, and she couldn't help but blush.
Listening to the description of the girls just now, the scene there is really lively. This is simply a rare thing that has never happened in Dingxihou Mansion since its establishment. Speaking of rare things, in just a few days, a lot has happened.
This young lady appears every time.
"It's really shocking." Xie stood up with a livid face.
Chang Yuncheng was one step ahead of her.
"This stinky woman..." He gritted his teeth and said, turned over and got off the kang, striding out, "Mother, let me go and take a look."
Before he finished speaking, the person had disappeared, leaving only the broken bead curtain.
Xie's expression softened and she slowly sat down again.
"Madam, please go take a look?" Aluan asked after hesitation.
The prince has a bad temper and can do anything if he is in a hurry...
"No need, she brought shame on herself, she deserves it." Ms. Xie smiled faintly, picked up the Buddhist beads on the side and slowly twisted them, "Later, the woman will be beaten away by Brother Cheng. You go again and take the people with you.
He is a handsome man who is famous all over the capital
He is highly admired because he is the son of the eldest princess.
She was born in a merchant family but was ridiculed for being promoted to a commoner
She became infamous because of him, but she died sadly in his cold eyes.
Reborn in the body of my concubine Shiniang
A death allowed her to see clearly the warmth and coldness of the world, her family members whose corpses were rotting, her good sisters who dug graves for the sake of money, and the so-called passionate love.
Love has become a firework of the past. Now there is only ashes. Chu Yun has made up her mind to be a little monster in this life. She will no longer be in love with it, but she never thought...
They met again next to her corpse pit...***(To be continued)
