Qingchuan History

Chapter 15

For the first moment she felt her heart pounding wildly.

Because the woman who was dressing by the big bathtub was very white.All the skin that can be seen, from the feet, to the wrists, to the exposed shoulders due to not being fully dressed, as well as the neck, and the face, are like white porcelain, snow white, with a faint sense of transparency——

Like the white jade cup Jun Shang used all the year round.

Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Zhen are also very white. She is not whiter than them, but the perception is different.

But no matter what kind of whiteness, skin whiteness is very scary in the current scene.

Because Ruan Xueyin is not in vain.

Then she calmed down a little.Through the thick and thin water mist, she could see the other person's face clearly.

Eyebrows like moon, eyes like lacquer, although the eyes are not as big and eye-catching as Mrs. Yu, nor as coquettish as Mrs. Jin, but they look like empty forests and mountain streams, clear and glistening, with a profound feeling of looking far away.The nose is small and straight, with a cherry mouth, and like the cheeks, it is pink like the haze after a new bath.

It's still the same palm-sized face, but because of the change in the background color, all the facial features appear exquisite as if they were released.Most importantly, the two red marks are gone.

The ultimate beauty.

If Mrs. Yu is beautiful and Mrs. Jin is bright, the person in the mist in front of her is Qingli.Qingli can't be described as overwhelming the country, but when Qingli reaches the extreme, there is a thrilling beauty.

Just like Madam Yu is extremely beautiful, Madam Jin is extremely bright.

She is not more beautiful than them, she is comparable, but for various reasons, talent, temperament or demeanor?

In her opinion, she was more beautiful than them all.

Yunxi was in a daze, to be precise, a little idiot, maintaining the posture of lifting the gauze curtain, without moving.Ruan Xueyin also kept turning her head to look at her, her pajamas had been pulled up completely, covering her previously exposed shoulders.

The two masters and servants were separated by a distance of two feet, separated by the increasingly thinning mist in the air, and faced each other in silence for a long time.

Then Ruan Xueyin's voice sounded.For some reason, the timbre was still the same, but it was more pleasing to Yunxi's ears than usual.

"Since you're here, come and help me get dressed."

Only then did Yun Xi wake up a little bit, and quickly lowered her head, not knowing whether to pretend to be confused or to admit her mistake, she hesitated, stammered, and did not move a step for a long while.

"Husband, madam, slave—"

Seeing that she was very nervous, Ruan Xueyin didn't want to embarrass her, and said in harmony:

"You've broken through, and you're still afraid that I'll be angry? This is Qi Gong, and the Lord protects you, so I dare to punish you?"

Yunxi was even more startled when she heard this, and looked up at her in astonishment, forgetting to explain.

Ruan Xueyin sighed, walked to the carved ebony stand next to the bathtub, and reached out to take off a peach pink gauze dress hanging on it.This is what she often wears after bathing these days. Before, Yunxi always felt that this color was too unsuitable for her. Looking at it again today, it actually made her porcelain-like skin even more translucent.

Seeing that Ruan Xueyin wanted to do it herself, Yunxi hurried forward to take the dress and put it on carefully for her.Ruan Xueyin didn't say anything, and let her straighten the skirt, tie all the belts, and walked out calmly, as if nothing had happened.

When the sound outside the main hall gradually subsided, another half an hour had passed.During this time, Ruan Xueyin stayed in the dormitory, letting Yunxi lead a group of palace servants to make arrangements outside.

Finally quiet down.There were only sporadic footsteps and the sound of moving things. It seemed that the guards had already left, and the palace people were cleaning up the mess.

Another incense stick of time passed.

Light and slow footsteps sounded from outside the dormitory, cautiously, Ruan Xueyin was reading a book under the lamp without looking up.After a while, I only heard Yunxi's voice resounding:
"The servant is guilty. Please punish me, madam."

Ruan Xueyin looked up, and Yunxi was already kneeling in front of her.

"You're only following orders. Get up."

Yunxi still couldn't afford it, he hesitated for a moment,
"When did Madam know?"

"Your first day here."

Yun Xi was stunned again, with an expression of disbelief.

Ruan Xueyin sighed softly, "You are a court lady in front of the imperial court, and you were called to the Zhexue Palace the night you entered the palace. If you didn't have a mission for you, why bother to call your own people here?"

"Madam never socializes with people, and she doesn't even talk to the palace people in her palace much. For example, how do you know where I was on duty before?"

"How many palace maids can there be in this palace? You were sent to serve me closely. I don't care about others. You must know your details. I thought it would take some effort, but I was still worrying about it. Who would have asked me casually?" Only one person will know."

That's right, Your Majesty sent himself here, but he didn't tell other palace people not to reveal his origin.Yunxi suddenly understood.I thought it was because I didn't want too many people to know my true intention of coming here?
"Your Majesty has worked really hard to know what I'm hiding."

"Ma'am, um, your majesty doesn't know about arson. It's the slave's idea." She silently glanced at Ruan Xueyin, and said embarrassingly:

"Your Majesty ordered that even if you break in, you have to do it in a reasonable way, and the scene must be passable. The servants thought, it's all gone, and the safety of the lady is the most important thing. It's not an exaggeration to break in like this."

Ruan Xueyin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she had to admit that this was a good idea.

"It seems that the Daqi State treasury is too full. For me alone, such a good palace can be burned as soon as it is said."

These words were quite ironic, and Yunxi relaxed a lot after hearing it, "Madam is not an ordinary woman, it is worthwhile to burn a palace for you."

These words sounded a little exaggerated, but Yunxi said it sincerely, because it was really worth it!But only half a row of doors and windows were burned, Madam, she is really a beauty!After following for three months, I regretted it three hundred times. It turned out that there was no dark skin and disfigured scars that did not match the whole body. If you want to go to the Wanlan Hall to reply, you have to walk in with your head held high.

Ruan Xueyin didn't expect that her answer was quite standard, it was like a joke but also a sincere compliment, she was at a loss for words for a while, and asked after a while:
"When do you plan to go to the Wanlan Palace to answer?"

Yun Xi stammered again, "This, madam, servant girl,"

"Forget it, Zhexue Palace is flooded, even if you want to come to Hegong, you know, let alone Your Majesty. I'm afraid I'm waiting for you to go there right now."

"Your Majesty doesn't know that Madam will expose the servant tonight, and I don't know whether the servant has finished the matter. He should wait until the servant passes tomorrow."

"You think Your Majesty doesn't know that I know?"

It can be said that Yunxi mobilized all her brainpower and spent a long time before she roughly understood this sentence.

"Your Majesty, don't you know? If he knows that you know, why don't you tell me to be careful not to be found out?"

"Your Majesty is resourceful and resourceful. Few people in the entire continent can count on him. If you really want to send someone to monitor me, but you don't want me to notice you, you can arrange for a cron who doesn't walk around in front of the imperial court on weekdays and is not well known by the palace people. Doesn't the emperor have such a reserve? But he sent you, and I'll know if it's all right."

"Your Majesty, why do I want you to know?"

Ruan Xueyin put down her book and looked out the window at the dark night. There are clouds tonight, but there is no wind, and the moonlight is still clear, but it is a bit dull, very similar to the weather in Yin country.

"I guess he doesn't care. If I don't know, look what I've done; if I know, look what I am."
