When the New Year arrives, all places in the capital are decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, the gardens are full of singing and dancing, and many dignitaries are welcomed and sent off, making it very lively.
And on this day of universal celebration, good things happened one after another in the palace. First, a favored talented person brought good news, and then a beautiful woman got a daughter. Although it was not a big event, but in the year, it was
The heirs of the royal family are particularly precious. People congratulating them come one after another, and the busy palace maids wish they had more hands and feet to help their masters.
But it's not impossible for things to go wrong.
It's just a matter of pressing it down and not letting it go out.
"Originally, there was no need for the young lady to go there in person. We appointed a girl to deliver it, so that's all."
Wearing new clothes, Daukou held a bouquet of red plums and walked quickly beside Ling Zihan, while Liuyun supported Ling Zihan without saying a word. Behind him, a group of palace maids and eunuchs were far away, but they followed closely.
Standing there, not daring to take a step down. Holding a delicate tray in his hand, he followed his master step by step towards Anle Palace.
But these people were all muttering in their hearts. I don’t know what happened. The talented person who was favored yesterday was so happy that she won the title. She invited the master to come over, but she refused to go no matter what. In the end, it was Miss Liuyun who made the decision.
, I sent some things over, and that was a big deal. Today, this Xia Meiren’s daughter, who was already neglected, got on the pole and sent it to her. Although she got a princess, this Xia Meiren got a princess.
The beauty has a cold nature and is not favored by the emperor. Even for the birth of the princess this time, she was only given some rewards, but she never even came to see her. The concubines and concubines of each palace naturally did not
Will fight
To deal with such an unfavored beauty, the most you can do is assign a girl to send a congratulatory gift and express your feelings. However, this master actually brought someone to deliver it with great fanfare. Isn't this obvious that he wants to make enemies in the harem?
"Don't open your mouth if you don't understand!" Ling Zihan glanced at Daukou lazily and said with a slight rebuke. Then she glanced at Liuyun again, walked forward a little further, and then stopped dead in her tracks.
Liuyun blinked at Daukou and without saying a word, he walked forward and knocked on the palace door.
"Who is it? Uh... you demon... you deserve to die. I pay my respects to Princess Ke, who is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old -"
The little palace maid who opened the door was so frightened that she fell to her knees.
Ling Zihan lowered her eyes and saw that she was wearing lake green clothes. Although the quality of the clothes was not as good as those of the palace maids who served powerful masters, it could still be seen that she was a classy female official.
Even to open the door, she has to work hard for the female officer next to her. It seems that the situation of this beauty is really as bleak as the rumors outside!
"Girl, please get up!" Ling Zihan called out and stretched out her hand to help.
The female officer was startled, shrank her neck, quickly crawled back a few steps on her knees, and begged for mercy again and again.
Ling Zihan raised her eyebrows slightly, and before Dou Kao could speak, she smiled and said, "Am I really that scary?"
The gentle voice was like spring water in March, flowing through the bottom of my heart, creating waves. Ling Zihan squinted her eyes slightly, hiding the charming and charming reflection in her eyes, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and raised a heart-warming smile.
He said calmly: "Get up quickly and take me to see your master and the little princess."
"Slave, slave..."
"What kind of slave are you? Why don't you get up and lead the way! My lady won't eat you!"
Daukou showed off the eldest maid so well that the female officer shrank in fright, quickly stood up, and then put on a smile, "Isn't this right? Let's go, let's go in quickly. It's freezing outside."
"Kudhao, step back, don't scare people." Ling Zihan scolded lightly, and then glanced at the calm Liu Yun.
Liu Yun stepped forward and opened the door, bowing to the female officer politely, "Sister, my master is here to see the little princess and Xia Meiren on the order of the Queen Mother. As for my sister, I'm here to see the little princess.
I have been spoiled by my master, and I don't know what to say. If I scare my sister, please don't blame me."
If Liu Yun had suppressed the cold and paralyzed expression on her face and said this, it would probably be easier for people to accept her words. However, Liu Yun had a hard time smiling to strangers when these words came out of her mouth.
, which seems weird.
But at least her gentle words are much better than the fiery-tempered Cardamom.
"This... this girl, I'm just a little palace maid, so I don't dare to mind you." As she said that, she quickly opened the door and invited everyone in. "Princess, please..."
"Princess, please come here..."
"Princess, please enter the main hall..."
Along the way, there was only one female officer leading the way.
Ling Zihan looked around at the bleak buildings with dark tones. They must have been taken care of by someone for a long time and looked extremely depressed. A thin willow tree was planted in front of a small lake. The branches were dark and looked about
It was scorched and no one came to remove it. The garden was overgrown with weeds and the flowers and branches were withered. No one had pruned it for at least half a year.
Calculating it this way, it is really a strange thing that this palace concubine is lucky enough to be pregnant.
Touching the cold palace wall, Ling Zihan stepped on the floor tiles, walked up the stairs slowly, and walked into the main hall. A smoky smell of carbon came out from inside, making her cry. Fortunately, cardamom
With quick eyesight and quick hands, he grabbed a book of water and rushed over to extinguish the charcoal fire.
"Your master uses this kind of thing to keep warm?! Oh my God, where is the chief eunuch here?"
Daukou kicked the charcoal basin with her foot, and when she pushed it aside, she saw that the broken charcoal residue inside was the lowest quality charcoal! She couldn't stand it, so she kicked the charcoal basin away and said, "You are trying to poison your master."
ah!"
"Cardamom!" Liuyun stepped forward to stabilize her, and winked at the accompanying eldest girl, asking her to get the charcoal she deserved from the beauty share. He then stepped forward to clean her tomorrow, and then turned to the female officer kneeling on the ground.
, "Go and inform your mistress! We will wait here. If your mistress is still in good health, let her see our princess. This will also allow our princess to return to her life."
The female officer glanced at Liu Yun gratefully, then turned to Ling Zihan. Her eyes were no longer frightened, but still a little wary.
She thanked him and left quickly.
Watching her retreating figure, Ling Zihan turned back and smiled at Daukou. A hint of lust lingered in her eyes, which shocked Daukou's anger and instantly extinguished her anger. "Miss, I am telling the truth, and I am wrong.
!”
"No, you did the right thing!" Ling Zihan reached out and patted her shoulder, not wanting the nutmeg to shrink back again.
"I'm doing the right thing for you, so don't scare me like this! You know, I'm most afraid of you laughing!"
"Then I'll cry for you from now on." After saying that, Ling Zihan curled her lips.
This time Daukou was even more speechless, and waved her hands quickly, complaining in her heart. So her master seems to have become smaller? Oh, and also, it is a good thing that her kung fu has recovered after returning from a trip to Ziling, which saves them a lot of trouble.
But her temper seemed to have returned to its original elusiveness, which was no longer something worth celebrating. She was afraid!
Looking sideways, she frequently glanced at Liuyun.
Liuyun pursed his lips tightly and snickered secretly, but then he heard Ling Zihan cough lightly.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yun quickly stopped his smile, and Dou Kao stood upright next to Ling Zihan.
An elderly grandma brought tea and offered her greetings and apology, until Ling Zihan interrupted: "Mammy, where is your master?"
"My master... the master ordered the old slave to bring the young master, show him to the princess, and said..."
"You said it's inconvenient to see guests? Why, you're even going against the Queen Mother's will!"
Hearing Ling Zihan's slightly lowered voice, the old nanny was frightened and quickly bowed: "No, the master was afraid that the princess would be sick, so he asked the old slave to tell her. Of course, if the princess doesn't believe this, you can go ahead
.”
As the old grandma said this, she was thinking in her heart, how many noble masters are not afraid of being sick? What's more, this master is pregnant with Liujia and has been sick recently. He must be afraid.
Even
What's more, this is still the New Year, who would seek bad luck for this matter! But she guessed that the payment was wrong, and Ling Zihan simply replied: "I don't believe this, grandma, please lead the way.
.”
Walking out of the door, a figure flashed past. But it seemed that because he saw them, he hurriedly turned back.
That figure was quite familiar to Ling Zihan. It was the female officer whom she had just met. She must have gone to deliver a message to their master.
Walking steadily, the old nanny led the group of people into the sleeping hall.
Standing at the door, Ling Zihan only left Liu Yun and Daukou to wait on her, and ordered Nan'er and others to wait at the door.
After entering the house, Ling Zihan shivered unconsciously, and quickly held the heater in her hand. She thought to herself that in such a cold palace, apart from the cold palace and the execution room, this is probably the only one. It seems that there is suppression from top to bottom in the palace.
Son, there are quite a lot of them. I am afraid that after seeing Mei Xia, she will not be favored. The charcoals sent are all defective products, making it impossible for the once pampered empress to use them.
"Your wife has just given birth and is at her weakest. Why do you eat these things? Is the eunuch in charge of the kitchen in the imperial kitchen dead?" He glanced at the cold rice on the table and a bowl of porridge with clear soup and little water.
You can count them all
There are a few grains of rice. As for those steamed buns, they actually have green and black spots on them, not to mention the side dishes made of rotten vegetable leaves. These things, placed in the Queen Mother's Palace, are not even food for a cat.
More refined than this.
Walking forward, Ling Zihan reached out to pick up the bowl of porridge, turned her hand over, and the turbid soup mixed with a few rice particles fell to the ground. Ling Zihan looked at the man who had already knelt on the ground with cold eyes, and screamed in surprise.
The female officer who shouted coldly snorted: "Mommy, I am the concubine.
Look at your fat head and big ears, you should be eating! The Queen Mother said that if I come here today, if I see anything that doesn’t suit my eyes, I will punish her on her behalf. However, the Queen Mother has always been merciful, and I will
I won’t blame you for not serving the master well.
, you are fat, and you are suspected of embezzling money and deducting the master's monthly salary. As long as you lick everything on the ground clean, I will give you a way to survive. Girl, you don't have to panic, get up and take me in to take a look at you.
How is the master of the house? Cardamom
, you go to the imperial kitchen and tell them that it is my wish, and ask them to deliver food and medicine to Xia Meiren honestly for me. Liuyun, you watch here, watch her lick it clean one by one.
, don’t leave a grain of rice or a drop of soup left!”
After saying that, he walked through the curtain and entered the next door.
