dream back to qing dynasty

Chapter 25
In a daze, I seemed to be chasing something all the time, my heart was beating violently, and the hot air from my mouth blurred my vision even more, but I didn't quite understand in my heart whether I was chasing or escaping, but no matter what , but I couldn't stop at all. Slowly, I really felt that I couldn't run anymore...

Opening his eyes, he was a little confused by the light in the room for a while, but he understood in an instant. "Huh..." I let out a long breath, closed my eyes, and then opened them to look around for a while, the pillow marks on the side were still there, but Yinxiang didn't know where he went.A strange idea popped up all of a sudden, wouldn't it be the first night of the wedding, and the husband would walk away if he was dissatisfied? !
Smiling self-consciously, I also know that this idea is really boring.But even though I never thought that when I woke up, I would be full of affection for each other, be shy, or have a passionate kiss or something, but half of a bed is empty for nothing, it still makes people feel a little... Oh, forget it, I Rub your forehead, let's get up.Just when I wanted to get up and lift the bed curtain, I suddenly felt uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but let out an "ouch", which made me freeze there, not daring to move for a while.Only then did I think of last night, my face became hot, but my heart still had the urge to snicker.According to the modern saying, I have found a husband who can make me happy, hehe...

Just as I was thinking wildly, the door opened with a "squeak". I looked out through the curtain, and a petite court lady walked in, her steps light and rhythmic.When she arrived in front of the tent, she stopped and leaned her upper body slightly, and said softly, "Master, are you awake?" I was stunned, and it was really awkward to hear people call me that. Yesterday I called others master by mouth. Today, he fell down, and the fate of life is nothing more than this.Grinning, I suddenly remembered a sentence I read somewhere: "Watching him build a tall building...watching his building collapse..." I muttered, I can count as building a tall building today, when will I ...I couldn't help shivering.

"Master?" Came a soft voice, obviously heard my murmur, knew that I was awake, it was just a slave's rule, she dared not enter without permission.I took a deep breath secretly, and said in a low voice: "I'm already awake, get up." The girl gently lifted the bed curtain and hung it on the gold-plated hook, then turned to look at me , I was also looking at her curiously, and my eyes met... I was stunned, she really looked good, compared with Xiaochun, although not as good as Xiaochun, but two points more weak than her, the whole The person looks light and thin... What does it look like, I frowned... By the way, I looked at her carefully, yes, it looks like a weeping willow...

"Master, you..." Seeing me staring at her, the girl blushed. She lowered her head and rubbed her clothes tightly with both hands. Said: "It's okay, I'll get up now." After speaking, I was lifted up and sat up, and the girl came up to help me get up.Now it's my turn to blush, and the nightgown on my body is rumpled and hangs on me like dried kelp. Although I'm embarrassed, I still remember to put my clothes back on in the situation last night My son is somewhat proud, it has nothing to do with modern times, I don't like to sing "Naked" in front of others... Putting on a silk robe, the girl is behind me helping me tidy up my messy hair, her movements are light and simple , It is comparable to the service level of Dongmei and Donglian.

"master."

"Ah?" I was taken aback, "What's the matter?" I turned my head slightly to look at her. "Would you like to take a shower? It'll be... um... more comfortable." She looked at me with a smile.I nodded, of course it's good, I'm used to taking a bath every day, let alone yesterday...

"Uh huh" I coughed dryly, trying to stop myself from thinking about it, "Is it convenient to take a shower early in the morning?" I asked subconsciously, and I knew I was asking a stupid question as soon as I said it, anyway, I am also a prince now Fujin is now, although she doesn't have much power, but she still has full freedom in such trivial matters as when to take a bath, which is different from when she was a female official.The maid was also taken aback, but she still replied: "Master is fine, besides..." She raised her eyes and looked at me with a hidden smile, I looked at her for no reason, "It's getting late now, Thirteenth Master woke up a long time ago, and is now in the practice room. He said that the servants would not wake Fujin up." I swallowed, but the paper window was hazy, and I couldn't see the exact time. "What time is it?" I asked hoarsely.

"Return to the master's words. It is already three quarters."

"What?" I couldn't help but yelled out, isn't that 45:[-]?My God, although it was commonplace to sleep in late at home on weekends before, but since I came to this place, except for the time when I pretended to be sick, I have never gotten up so late.I couldn't help but smile wryly, this time I'm showing my face, and people at this time don't think that you are newlyweds and it's justifiable.If you say you're lazy and wasteful, that's fine. I'm afraid that some people have said that Shisan and I are licentious.But it's useless to think about it, and I can't turn back time. If I had that ability, I would have gone home a long time ago. Do I still need to live here cautiously?Shaking his head, he could only go with them...

The girl on the side didn't dare to disturb me when she saw my eyebrows and flat mouth, but just stood quietly, I turned my head and smiled and said, "Then you go."

"Huh?" She froze for a moment, looking at me in a daze.I laughed lightly, and I was a little confused, "I mean, go prepare the bath water, I want to take a bath."

"Ah, yes. The maidservant is going right away." She blushed, blessed herself, and turned around in a hurry.

I strolled to the window, gently opened the window sash, and looked up, the sun was already high, but the sun was still warmly shining on my face with the unique softness of spring.The fragrance of magnolia flowers was vaguely mixed in the air, and I breathed vigorously, hoping that my body would be filled with such fresh breath inside and out.The surrounding area is very quiet, except for some faint shouts coming from the west side. I thought about it carefully, and it seems that I heard Yinxiang say before that his cloth warehouse is located in the west ear room.Thinking about what the maid said just now, I couldn't help but smile.That's fine, otherwise when I wake up early in the morning, you look at me and I look at you, I really don't know what kind of face I should use to face Yinxiang.

"Be careful." There was a voice, and I looked to the right. The girl was directing the eunuchs to come here carrying the washing utensils.I took a deep breath, closed the window with my hands back, and prepared to take a quick bath. The dirt and filth I will face in the future must be inevitable, so I can at least give myself a refreshing start.After letting the maid wash my hair, I invited her out, no matter how surprised she was in her heart, taking a bath is a kind of enjoyment, not a performance, I am not interested in doing a section three times to the left and three times to the right in front of others , Rub up, rub down, even if she is also a woman.Although I really want to have a good time with it, I am still a little sensible. There will be plenty of time in the future, so there is no need to rush today.

I took a quick battle shower, put on my underwear and underwear, and called Qixiang, who was guarding outside, to come in and tidy up. When I washed my hair just now, I had already asked her name and approximate origin.She entered the palace at the same time as me. She is one year younger than me. She is the daughter of Niu Lu under Zhenglan. That kind of cool place.If it wasn't for a coincidence, I met a powerful nanny and worshiped my godmother, then she wouldn't appear in front of me today.

This girl was stunned by me today, and now she is obviously intimidated by the speed of my bathing. Although I am a little funny, I have no intention of explaining anything to her. I have known me for a long time. , naturally you will know what kind of person I am.What's more, I have to observe her carefully.Naturally, being here is different from the Changchun Palace of the Defei Empress. My status is different, so the dangers I have to face will naturally increase exponentially. If I know the wrong person, I will be calculated by others I don’t know... The people around me are very important. Although Dongmei and Donglian are close to me, firstly, their status and status were similar at that time, and there was no conflict; secondly, with their current identities, it is absolutely impossible From Concubine De's place to serve me, thinking of this, I can't help but think of Xiaotao...

"Master, do you think this is okay?" Qixiang interrupted my thoughts with a soft sentence, and I subconsciously looked into the bronze mirror. The hairstyle is very simple, and the jet-black bun makes my eyebrows clearer and clearer. stand up.What a skillful girl, and very smart, she came and went within half an hour, but she was able to figure out my character. I took another look at Qixiang who was standing aside with a hairpin.Very good, really good, good is like a double-edged sword, but I just don’t know where she is going to stab it. A maid who happened to be transferred here made me think so.When my mind was going back and forth, I suddenly froze for a moment, am I going to plan everything like this in the future?He couldn't help frowning, feeling faintly that the word "simple" that had been held tightly in his hand like a life-saving talisman seemed to slip away from his fingers like fine sand unconsciously...

Sighing secretly, it seems that I have to remind myself all the time, not to lose myself because of foreign things... After making up my mind, I felt better, and smiled at Qixiang who was staring at me blankly, and took it from her hand. The hairpin is the one that Yinxiang won back from archery - I found it out specially.I was hesitating which direction would be more natural, "Qixiang, do you think this is okay?" I asked with a smile, but Qixiang took a step back.I was startled, a slender hand reached out to hold mine, and gently inserted the hairpin into my bun. "It looks good wherever it is inserted." A clear and bright voice echoed in my ears, I just felt my face heat up again, I didn't know what to say, I just smiled and looked at Yinxiang's brilliant face in the mirror. smile...

I was blushing, and I didn't know what to say. Yinxiang held one hand tightly, and my palm was faintly wet with sweat.On the other hand, Yinxiang was very happy, with raised eyebrows and a smile on the corners of his mouth, besides joy in his dark eyes, there was also a hint of satisfaction that his wish had finally been fulfilled.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Yin Xiang bent down and asked with a low laugh, it seemed that the redder my face was, the happier he was.I blinked my eyes and said vaguely: "It's okay." He laughed "chichi", put his arms around my shoulders, and put his chin on my shoulders: "Okay is good. Huh? Where did so much ambiguity come from?" I breathed out, turned to look at him, Yinxiang was slightly taken aback. "I didn't compare, so I had to be vague." I said with a smile.Yinxiang gasped, almost staring at me in disbelief.I also hesitated at the bottom of my heart. Is it too outrageous? It seems that women in this era have not dared to make jokes about this kind of chastity.I can't help feeling a little regretful, but the words have already been spoken, and I can't take them back, so I have no choice but to... I was a little worried about Yinxiang's reaction, "Haha..." He actually laughed out loud, which startled me, I stared blankly at him.After a while, Yinxiang's laughter gradually stopped, and he turned his eyes to look at me, "Xiaowei..." He lowered his head slowly, pressing his forehead against mine, "Unfortunately, you have no chance in this life compared."

"Ah?" I replied subconsciously, looking straight into Yinxiang's eyes, there was only happiness and a little bit of laughter.I felt relieved, and really grinned a big smile.How lucky I am to have met such an enlightened man in this closed age.Leaving aside modern times, here is not just any man who would take this joke as a joke... Just as he was having fun, Yinxiang's eyes darkened, a shadow flashed by, and his warm lips were already It landed heavily on my lips, and as soon as my brain became hot, I could only dance to his rhythm.In a daze, he suddenly remembered that there was someone else beside him, so he broke free, glanced at Yinxiang, looked aside, and complained to him in a low voice: "You really, don't even look at the other people beside you... ..."

Before he finished speaking, he found that Qixiang had already retreated out at some point, and was startled.Yinxiang sat on the spring bench next to me indifferently, and took a freshly picked flower in his hand to play with: "If I didn't have this wink, I wouldn't have been sent here It's gone." I paused, and subconsciously turned my head to look at him, he was sitting there with a smile, but there was a shrewdness in his eyes.I sighed secretly in my heart, I thought I had changed a lot, and I could be called shrewd and calculating, but compared with someone like Yinxiang who has already become instinctive in calculating, I probably can only be called smart.It seems that Yinxiang is well aware of that girl's background, I sighed in my heart, turned around lightly, took a pair of jasper pendants, and slowly put them on my earlobe.

"Don't worry, she won't be able to sit on wax. Her own father belongs to the Seventeenth Flag." Seeing my complexion slightly darkened, Yinxiang thought I was worried about Qixiang's problem.I raised my eyebrows, indicating that I understand. Although he misunderstood, I didn't intend to say anything more. It's not a good thing to explain everything clearly. It's not a good thing for Yu Yinxiang, and it's the same for me.

The atmosphere in the room was a bit dull, I was still thinking about these things subconsciously, I was just packing things in my hands, and inadvertently found that Yinxiang was staring at me thoughtfully. a tight.I was thinking about my own thoughts for a while, and I forgot his shrewd temperament of listening to string songs and knowing elegance... Alas... I sighed softly, reached out to cover the dressing box, and turned to look at him with a smile: "I I'm hungry, let's go eat." Yinxiang was stunned for a moment, stood up and walked to me, gently pulled me up from the stool and hugged me, he lifted my chin, and looked at me seriously "I don't care what happened before, but from now on you are mine, do you understand? The real you, all of you, I want to know, whether you laugh or cry." He paused , "I will protect you for the rest of my life!"

I closed my eyes, Shisan's tone made me sad.On the surface, it sounds like he is asking me, but in fact, he is like a sea urchin, with the thorns pulled out of his body, leaving only defenseless softness.After calming down for a while, I looked up at him and nodded lightly: "Got it." I stretched out my hand to smooth his frown unconsciously, "I promise." Yinxiang's eyes lit up, and he grinned slowly He smiled brightly like a child, he grabbed my hand and said loudly: "Let's go, eat, I'm starving to death." I thought it was not good to go out hand in hand like this, but after thinking about it, let him go Go ahead, let those caring people chew secretly.

As soon as I went out, I saw Qixiang guarding the door. When she saw us coming out, she was about to come up to salute, but when she lowered her head, her eyes fell on our clasped hands, and she froze there for a moment. "Go and tell Qin Shun'er that Fujin and I will be there soon." Yinxiang said lightly.The girl shivered, and was so busy that she stepped back.I watched Qixiang walking towards the corner gate, before I had time to think, Yinxiang tilted his head and bowed to me: "Master Fujin, please."

"Puchi", I couldn't help laughing, and nodded, "Lead the way ahead." Yinxiang smiled and pulled me to the side, and reminded me to be careful of the steps when I reached the Moon Gate. What am I doing? I've known him for three years, and I just realized he's such a nag today.Seeing the seriousness on his face, I shook my head with a wry smile, and in a blink of an eye, I saw Qixiang's dazed eyes were on here. Seeing me turn around, she was so busy that she lowered her head and went out from the corner door.

"Xiaowei." Yinxiang turned his head and followed my gaze, "What's wrong?" I smiled: "It's okay, where are we going, I remember the main hall should be over there, over here...it seems to be Go to the kitchenette."

"Yes." Yinxiang nodded.I pretended to be terrified: "Isn't it? I'm going to eat, I don't want you to stew me to eat."

"Hehe..." Yinxiang laughed, "Don't worry, I can't bear it if you agree. There is an attic against the mountain over there, which is airy and clear. You must like it, don't you?" Yinxiang explained to me with a smile , I forgot the question just now.Seeing him asking for credit, I looked around and there should be no one, so I took a step forward and pressed a kiss on Yinxiang's face, "Yes, I like it very much." Seeing his silly look, I am happy turned around and walked forward.I just felt that the sky was blue and the air was fresh. Before taking two steps, Yin Xiang caught up with me, walked side by side with me, lowered his head and pointed at his face, and said with a smile: "That's it, I'll go there every day from now on. Eat." I chuckled and shook hands with him.

Talking and laughing all the way to the attic, Qin Shun'er, Yinxiang's personal eunuch, had already prepared everything. Seeing us, he hurried forward to beat Qian'er, and auspicious words flowed out, saying De Yinxiang was even more happy, and generously rewarded him with money.I've known this kid a long time ago. When Yinxiang was inconvenient to come to me, he was the one who came to pass on messages or bring things.It's just that at that time, she yelled at Miss Xiaowei, but now she doesn't dare to yell anymore.He has been serving Yinxiang since he was eight years old. He is very spirited and loyal.His elder brother also became a eunuch, and he is in the Sibeile mansion. Sometimes I even wonder if he is so loyal because his brother is in the hands of the fourth master. No one dares not to take Sibeile in his eyes .

Once when talking casually, Dong Lian once sighed: "Isn't your family dead?" The kid said nonchalantly that there are six brothers in their family, and his elder brother has already married a wife and had children.Now that the two brothers are working in the palace, the family can save a lot of money, and they can make up a lot. According to his parents' wishes, they also want to send their younger brother in.At that time, Dongmei and Donglian laughed and said, didn't your family earn all the money in the palace?But my heart felt cold for a while. Is this kind of place where the body is mutilated and self-respect is thrown away, is it actually a blessing in the eyes of the poor?

In retrospect, Qin Shun'er had already set up the bowls and chopsticks, and was serving us for dinner. Yinxiang had a great appetite, but there were still rules in the dining room. I don't eat much in the morning, let alone surrounded by a circle of people , I'm not too embarrassed to have no scruples.While eating and chatting, I heard Yinxiang mention that he will take me to another courtyard for a visit in the past two days. It is at the black stone at the foot of the West Mountain. There is his Zhuangzi there, which was rewarded by the emperor.It sounds like a honeymoon, I am naturally 1 willing to leave this pit of fire, even if it is only for a while.Qin Shun'er gave me a bowl of japonica rice porridge, and I mixed it with a porcelain spoon. It was a little hot, so I blew it gently and drank it slowly. "After we come back, your mother-in-law can come to the palace to pay her respects." Yinxiang said while drinking the porridge, I nodded, feeling a little amused in my heart.Ordinarily, the newcomers should return home in three dynasties, but in the palace, the rules are completely changed. This is the absolute authority of the royal family.

"Let's leave early tomorrow morning, just go and say hello to Empress Defei, it's enough according to etiquette."

"Ah, good." I nodded. "After the formal ceremony tonight, there is nothing to do." Yinxiang took the little girl and handed over a towel to wipe her mouth.I was just putting a spoonful of porridge into my mouth, and asked him casually, "What formality?"

"The nuns didn't tell you. We have to go to salute the prince at night. The prince represents Huang Ama. This is considered to be the reason of the monarch and his ministers."

"Oh, I got it." I blew lightly on the porridge in the spoon and was putting it into my mouth, when I heard Yinxiang say: "Then I will light cigarettes and serve tea for my brothers and uncles, which is considered a full family ritual. "

"Clang"!The spoon in my hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces. The people in the room were startled, and Qin Shun'er jumped over: "Fu Jin, did you burn yourself?" I nodded stiffly.Yinxiang walked up to me, touched my red and swollen lips lightly with his fingers: "Does it hurt, huh?" Come here, Yinxiang took it from another hand, and let me take two sips from his hand, and at the same time scolded the waiter next to him: "A bunch of idiots, don't they know how hot and cold they are!" He tugged on Yinxiang's sleeve: "It's okay, I was not careful, and it's nothing to say." Yinxiang looked down again, and frowned, "Do you want to..." Before he finished speaking, I was busy I had to wave my hand, "No." Yinxiang was stunned, and asked me with a smile: "Why don't you?" I glared at him: "No for the imperial physician."

"Hey!" He laughed lightly, "You know what I think." I took the cup from his hand and said vaguely while drinking water: "Of course, so don't try to cheat on me." What are you doing, look at your tail curling up, I will..." Suddenly, I realized that the words were a bit indecent, I blushed, and swallowed it back, Yinxiang looked at me dumbfounded, and the eunuchs and girls around also covered their mouths sniggering.Seeing Yinxiang sitting back, I lowered my eyelashes and concentrated on drinking water, but the words kept echoing in my mind: "Uncle, brother..."
