The little lady in the dining room

Chapter 33 Crash
Xue Li was stunned for a moment when she saw the purse, and subconsciously continued to raise her head. As soon as she saw the face clearly, her eyes froze fiercely.

The emperor was too late to dodge, with so many palace officials following him, they couldn't even fool her.Chen Jijiang and Xu Shishui, who followed closely behind, raised their eyes and felt embarrassed for the emperor. They wished they could find a crack in the ground next to them and sneak in—after painstakingly concealing it for so long, it just broke through like this? !
In the front yard of the Zhengzheng Palace, the atmosphere froze like this.

Xue Li felt that she had stopped breathing, and did not react until her chest was oppressed. She took a sharp breath and bowed in a panic: "Your Majesty, Wanan!"

The emperor frowned slightly, and glanced sideways at the study.

The study room was quiet, and one could see Chu Shi and Yi Shi who were waiting outside kneeling down to salute, presumably the Queen Mother and the Seventh Brother were fighting inside and drove them out.

Looking at Sydney again, the emperor was so annoyed that he didn't want to care about the seventh brother.

"Take her and go back to Zichen Palace." After he said that, he turned around and left, which caught Xueli by surprise, and Zhengze Palace was also caught off guard.

When the news spread to the study room, it was roughly "Your Majesty took the maid away and left no other words." The Queen Mother took a sip of her tea again without asking anything else, and Xie Han was terrified——how does it feel that the emperor's brother took the palace maid away? Is being taken away by someone more terrible than the empress punishing her to kneel for two hours? !
The emperor walked in front, and all the palace people followed silently. Xue Li was half supported and half supported by two eunuchs. After a short while in this quietness, she completely panicked.

——A lot of things rushed into her mind at the same time, and after going through all of them, she felt that she was going to die!

She complained that the emperor ate her little rabbit, and also complained that the emperor was "tempered and bad-tempered", saying that he punished the palace servants for not being good at serving, which made them very scared, and once forced him to eat it on the grounds that "eating sweets will make you feel better". Almond halva!
The emperor doesn't like sweets so much!
So, as the emperor was walking, he heard a muffled sound behind him: "Woo..."

The emperor was startled, stopped to look over, and the accompanying palace people also stopped neatly.Most of the palace people were still ignorant of what had happened before, only looking at the emperor's face, they felt that something was wrong, they all lowered their heads, and even slowed down their breathing.

The emperor pondered for a while, but didn't say anything in front of everyone, and continued to walk forward, sobbing all the way.

When they arrived in front of the Zichen Palace, Xue Li saw that the two eunuchs were still holding her hands and were planning to carry her up the long steps, she became even more afraid, and because she cried all the way, her voice became hoarse: "Your Majesty..."

The emperor turned his head and saw that she seemed to want to hide back but did not dare to move: "Your maidservant didn't do it on purpose!"

He didn't know how to respond, so he didn't answer, and was about to continue walking up, when a more nervous voice came from behind: "Your servant is convicted..."

"..." The emperor took a short breath, "Let her come up by herself, and others will wait outside."

The palace people stopped after hearing the words, and the two eunuchs immediately let go, and Xue Li froze in place.

Why is it getting worse...

No matter how afraid you are, you still have to obey this decree.Xueli gritted her lips secretly, holding her skirt, and rubbed upwards step by step, like climbing a mountain of knives.

The emperor waited for a long time at the gate of the hall before she also finished the long steps. He glanced at her: "The mouth is broken."

Sydney's white teeth loosened suddenly, and only then did she taste a fishy sweetness.

"Come in." The emperor turned and entered the hall, she hesitated for a moment and had to follow in.

The others stayed outside, and the palace servants who were waiting in the hall were also signaled to leave by the emperor. She still knelt down in fright as soon as she stepped into the threshold of the inner hall: "Your Majesty!"

Xue Li thought it over clearly, whichever crime he wanted to pick on her, she would definitely admit it immediately, and it would be of no benefit to bear it to death!

The emperor stopped and thought for a while, then asked her: "Do you speak first or should I speak first?"

The word "zhen" hit her heart like a small copper hammer with a waist round the shell of a crab, and of course she could only answer: "Your Majesty, speak first!"

The tone of the answer sounded very firm, the emperor couldn't help smiling, stretched out his hand to help her up, and said: "I didn't deliberately conceal your identity, it was inconvenient to say it at first, but I was afraid that I would scare you later."

Xueli didn't know how to answer, so she nodded vigorously to express her understanding.

The emperor sank, and added to himself: "It's not completely lying to you. The commander is on my own shoulders, and Chenghuai is my name."

She still nodded vigorously, the tension in her heart was self-evident.

The emperor knelt down and said slowly, "It's your turn."

Xue Li took a deep breath, staring down at him, not daring to look at him, suddenly she didn't have the courage to repeat all her previous mistakes and obediently confessed.

——She had to think, what if he had forgotten a certain item in it?Wouldn't it be worse if she reminded her again?

So I picked the closest one and confessed in advance: "I didn't mean to say that your Majesty is 'moody'!"

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "Could it be that he said it unintentionally?"

She lowered her head and felt the cold light in his eyes, and she was shocked, and heard him say again: "Do you think I am the one who will settle accounts after autumn?"

no……

Sydney is very anxious. This is probably called "talking too much, making mistakes" and "talking too much will make mistakes"!So she gritted her teeth and didn't dare to say any more, her eyebrows were tightly furrowed, "Your Majesty forgives my sins" was written all over her tense little face, and she wished she could put "Your Majesty, you are right in everything you say" on her forehead!
The emperor stared at her for a while with a straight face, and couldn't bear to tease her anymore, so he asked her, "Does your knee hurt?"

Xue Li, who was nodding all the time just now, shook her head very sharply this time.The emperor raised his eyebrows, so he had no choice but to pretend he didn't see it, and got up and grabbed her arm.

Xueli didn't dare to struggle at all to follow him, but fortunately, he stopped after a few steps, pushed her to sit on a chair at the side of the hall, and said, "Wait."

This feeling made Sydney feel very familiar, and after recalling that it was the past, she felt a wave of heart palpitations.His toes froze a little on the ground, and he didn't dare to stand up against his will, so he sat stiffly.

After the emperor came out of the bedroom, he saw that her back was straight and the tears were still wet on her face, she looked very pitiful.

He sighed: "Don't be afraid."

She was still frozen.

"Put the medicine on." He handed her the porcelain bottle in his hand.The last time she was injured on her arm, she refused to help her even if he tried to help her. This time it was on her leg, and it was even more inappropriate for him to use his hands.He simply didn't mention it, but when he saw that she had taken the medicine, he pointed to the screen beside him, "I'll go to the back and wait."

Xue Li stared at him in a daze as he hid behind the screen, as if he had given up the huge Zichen Palace to her.

Lifting up her skirt and trousers, Xue Li was taken aback by the bruises on her knees!
She has never been punished to kneel like this before in winter. When she knelt in the Zhengzheng Palace just now, she just felt that the bluestone slab was really hard enough. It is certain that her legs will be uncomfortable, and she probably needs to rub it slowly.

Now that I realized how serious it was, I touched it lightly with my finger...it hurts!
Xie Zhao folded his arms and waited behind the screen, and heard the air-conditioning gasping outside, the sound became more obvious as he sucked in air.

"Pass it to the nurse to rub it for you?" he suggested.

"No need!" Xueli replied with her head covered in medicine, she was startled to be too impolite as soon as she finished her words, and hurriedly said, "Just a little green, I will be fine by myself."

He didn't want to force her to agree, so he listened to her continue to gasp in silence, and said slowly, "Come to the imperial dining room."

"Hiss—" Xueli took a breath of cold air and stopped halfway through.

After a while, Xie Zhaocai heard the trembling voice again: "Your Majesty...?"

He explained directly: "Seventh brother's matter is big or small, if the Queen Mother's weather is not favorable these two days, maybe I will ask you again."

"But the Imperial Dining Room..." Xueli had already taken the medicine, and her knees were comfortably cool.Putting down her trousers and outer skirt, she moved a little, and moved behind the screen in small steps.

The little girl who suddenly looked at the little girl whose tears were still shining, Xie Zhao almost stretched out his hand to touch her forehead, endured it, fixed his eyes and smiled: "Okay?"

She nodded and glanced at him quietly: "Your Majesty, do you think this matter is not the servant's fault?"

"Of course not." The emperor answered with a nod of his head, Xue Li frowned slightly, and lowered his voice: "But I feel that it's not the Seventh Highness's fault."

Why are you talking about this all of a sudden?

He thought for a while, and he understood: "Do you think that I have to find someone to come out to question this matter, whether it's you or the seventh brother?"

When it comes to rules, there must always be someone who is wrong!

She hid this sentence and dared not say it.Although she didn't think there was anything wrong with the Seven Kings—he just wanted to have a good meal, but she didn't have the courage to take this wrong by herself.

Sydney felt that she was right!
What is going on in her mind?Xie Zhao looked at her palpable tangled expression, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and then turned serious again, "Go back, take the medicine, and don't worry about other things, and don't mention these to others for now."

Two days later, the empress dowager left the palace, and the Shangshi Bureau, which had just let go, welcomed Chen Jijiang.

In the main hall, Chen Jijiang sat at the head seat, sipping tea leisurely, and after a wink, Xu Shishui presented the list in his hand to Zou Shangshi.

Chen Jijiang smiled and said: "The ten people above are transferred to the imperial dining room, and they will work in the imperial dining room in the future."

He spoke calmly, but Mrs. Zou found it really strange no matter how she looked at it.

On the list, there is one female history, one diary, and one female official, all of which can be called "female officials".

But how come there are still three envoys who have just been promoted?
"My lord..." Zou Shangshi showed him the list with some hesitation, "Is there a mistake in these three? This is a maid who has just entered the palace for three years."

"Which one?" Chen Jijiang glanced at it in confusion, and said in a flash, "Oh, that's right."

After he finished speaking, he put the teacup in his hand aside, met Zou's suspicious eyes, and said meaningfully: "Shang Shi is also a man who has been in the palace for a long time, and he can tell that there is something going on here. But what is going on here , Shangshi, you'd better not ask."

Even if these two simple sentences are not enough to make Zou Shangshi understand the details, they are enough to let her know that she can't afford to touch the matter inside.Chen Jijiang looked at her expression and nodded with satisfaction, reached out and touched a large silver ingot from his sleeve and put it on the case, and told her: "The Zhengsi of the Palace of Classics and Records is ready. If someone asks, these ten were already made last year." To work in Zichen Palace."
