When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

Chapter 84

"I heard that you stayed with the king?" Mingzhu, who brought Honglian back to the room, asked after pouring Honglian a cup of tea.

"How did my little lady know?" Hong Lian asked while holding a steaming teacup.

"Why can't I know? Honglian, tell me, are there many people in this Xianyang Palace?" Mingzhu leaned against the head of the bed, feeling that she had lost much strength.

"A lot, the maids and servants in the inner palace, and the guards in the outer palace, there are about a thousand people in total." Honglian thought.

"Yes, the people in this Xianyang Palace are very good, but this is just a number. In Xianyang Palace, there are actually very few people." Mingzhu said.

"Very little?" Honglian said in surprise, obviously she couldn't understand what she said.

"In Xianyang Palace, there is only one person, and that is the Great King. As for the others, they are just numbers without any meaning. So, do you understand?" Mingzhu said meaningfully.

"I don't quite understand." Honglian shook her head and said.

"Do you know why I know about you?" Mingzhu turned into the most patient teacher at this time, teaching Honglian tirelessly.

"Yeah, why does my little lady know?" Honglian asked.

"Because you appeared next to the king." Mingzhu said seriously.

"Just because of this? It doesn't seem to have any connection with the fact that Xiao Niang knows about me." Hong Lian was puzzled.

"No, there is a great connection. It is precisely because you appear next to the king that all the people in Xianyang Palace will notice you beside the king. Of course they are not really concerned about you, but when they are watching the king, naturally I will see you too." Mingzhu said.

"My little lady is saying that all this is because of the king?" Hong Lian seemed to understand something.

"If you want to live a good life in this palace, there is only one way, and that is to win the favor of the king." Listening to Honglian's words, Mingzhu seemed to have no resistance to Yingzheng when she first came here, and her heart moved slightly. , A plan has slowly formed in my heart.

"But, I am satisfied with my current life." Honglian said innocently.

Of course you are satisfied. You are by Ying Zheng’s side all day long, and you don’t have to do anything as a maid. The one who is not satisfied is me. I wash clothes here every day. Don’t you know that the water is very cold in winter?

"Honglian, do you want to help me?" Mingzhu changed the subject and turned pitiful.

"Help my lady? What can I help you with?" Hong Lian asked puzzledly while sipping tea.

"Look at my hands." Mingzhu stretched out her hands and said.

"Are they injured? They look so red and swollen." Hong Lian stretched out her palm to touch Mingzhu's spread in front of her.

"It's frozen, didn't you see it just now? I'm doing laundry, not just today, I've been doing this every day for the past few months, washing more than a hundred pieces of clothes every day " Mingzhu said sadly.

"Besides, it's winter now, and you must be able to feel that the winter in Xianyang Palace is much colder than that in Xinzheng, and I have to wash my clothes in cold water." Mingzhu almost cried when she said that.

At this time, Mingzhu is definitely not acting, because she is really too miserable, and there is no need to act at all.

"Actually, I didn't feel any cold feeling." Honglian whispered to herself in her heart.

At this moment, she thought of Ying Zheng, and at the same time, she felt a sense of doubt, because she had long since discovered that as long as she stayed by Ying Zheng's side, she could always feel an inexplicable warmth, so comfortable that it made her feel dizzy. The fear of Ying Zheng from the bottom of my heart gradually disappeared in this winter, and was replaced by another feeling instead.

However, in front of the miserable Pearl, of course Honglian can't say that. Life in Xianyang Palace has taught Honglian to hide her true thoughts.

"How can I help you, little lady?" Honglian asked, covering Mingzhu's palm.

"You can't help me now, you have to establish yourself in Xianyang Palace and become the hostess here before you can help me." Mingzhu said.

"hostess?"

Hong Lian, who already knew some personnel affairs, blushed subconsciously when she heard the words, and said, "How is that possible? We are only people who were mortgaged to Qin by our father."

"Why is it impossible? Honglian is a princess after all, and she is so cute, so she will definitely succeed." Mingzhu said.

"Your Majesty is not much older than you. Have you forgotten that your father is over forty years old, and the most favored beauty in the palace is only in his twenties, isn't he still..." Mingzhu Having said that, I didn't go any further.

"But, but?" Honglian didn't know how to respond.

"Twenty years older is not a problem, let alone the king is only a little older than you, age is not a problem at all." Mingzhu said with a firm expression.

Honglian nodded subconsciously, only felt that what Mingzhu said seemed to make sense, but also felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the other party, but for a while, she couldn't explain why.

"You can only help me if you are favored by the king." Mingzhu said to Honglian with the power of bewitching.

"But, I don't know how to do that." Honglian said with a mournful face.

"I can teach you." Mingzhu said.

"But, I..." Subconsciously, Hong Lian felt that once she agreed to Mingzhu, she would definitely fall into a place of eternal doom. .

"Forget it, since Honglian is making things difficult for you, then I'd better wash the clothes honestly. At worst, I don't need these hands. When my hands are gone, I don't need to wash the clothes." Mingzhu said with a sad face.

Seeing such a bright pearl, Honglian couldn't bear it. She thought of it. On the way from South Korea to Qin, it was Mingzhu who accompanied her and comforted her. After coming to Xianyang Palace, she didn't understand anything. I can only survive under Mingzhu's care...

Countless memories flooded Guren's mind.

She is a good person, and she is also my benefactor. I can't just leave her alone. Although those things seem to be bad things, if they can save her, it's not impossible to do them.

I'm repaying my favor, and I can do anything.

Honglian, who was building a psychology for herself in her heart, slowly revealed a firm expression.

Seeing Honglian's changes, a smile appeared on the corner of Mingzhu's mouth. She knew that Honglian had taken the bait, and her plan had already begun to be implemented.

"What should I do?" Honglian asked with a firm face.

"First of all, you have to..." One after another tricks poured from Mingzhu's lips into Honglian's ears.

It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that Mingzhu stopped, but the satisfaction of preaching and teaching karma asked Honglian: "Do you understand?"

"But?" Honglian said with a puzzled face.

"I ask you if you understand?" Mingzhu put on the sternness of a teacher.

"I don't quite understand." Honglian hesitated.

"What don't you understand? Tell me, and I'll explain it to you again." Mingzhu said seriously.

"I understand what Xiaoniang said, but I have been staying in Xianyang Palace for the past few days, and I have already done what Xiaoniang said. Do I still have to do what Xiaoniang said?" Honglian asked suspiciously. .

"What?" Mingzhu's delicate body shook, she was really overwhelmed by Honglian's words.

The action plan I have worked so hard to outline is just to allow Honglian to stay in Xianyang Palace smoothly, so that more stories will happen. Honglian has already done it?

"Tell me, what happened?" Mingzhu only felt like a clown at this moment.

"I don't know what's going on." Honglian said with a sad face.

"This is her mother's fate." Mingzhu clenched her palms tightly, feeling that God was treating her too unfairly.
