The cute master who always attacks the queen

Chapter 23 Crying
Yu Ci finished cooking soup, and it was almost time for dinner.

She was about to send someone to send it, but a young eunuch beside Jun came to report first.He said that seeing Jun was discussing matters with the cabinet ministers, he might not be able to catch up with the dinner, so he asked Xie Ci to eat first.

Xie Ci knew that it would be fine for others to ask "what's the matter", but she was the only one who couldn't ask, so although she felt her heart, she still suppressed it.He only told Junzheng to not be too tired when he was ill, and let them take care of him carefully.

Tang naturally let him take it back along the way.

After dinner, Yu Ci had nothing to do, so she sat back at the desk and read a book.

Before turning two pages of the book, Ah Ying came to report outside, saying that Lin Xiuyi had come.

Yu Ci didn't want to neglect her, put the book aside, got up to meet her.

Lin Xiuyi was waiting in the hall.She had been ill for a while and lost a lot.At this time, she was wearing a lotus-colored undercoat, and a pink and white long skirt on her lower body. A handsome green calyx was embroidered on the skirt, and she was wrapped in a plain blue bamboo-patterned cloak.The whole person is plain and elegant, frowning and frowning, indescribably romantic and tactful.

Xie Ci, a woman, couldn't help but feel her heart flutter.

She was wearing a Japanese bun, and she was caged with a hairpin with gold flat corners and beads, and a butterfly hairpin given by Yuci was inserted in it.The hairpin had a lot of jewelry on it, and it was in a rich and elegant style. Yu Ci originally gave it to her because she saw that she was dressed too plainly and poorly when going to the banquet.But she didn't want that magnificence to be taken away by her noble temperament.I can only feel the butterfly wings trembling, lifelike, which makes her more beautiful than Huajiao.

Her face is not as stiff as when they met on the Mid-Autumn Festival.Although it is not as amiable as it was at first, it is also very gentle.

Yu Ci thought to herself, it was right to ask her family to comfort her.

Lin Xiuyi was paying respects to Miu Ci, while secretly looking at her.For the convenience of practicing calligraphy, Yu Ci only wore a deep crimson dress with a curved train tonight, with a high waistline and long hanging sash. She was tall and graceful, dignified and noble.Her black hair was spread out, and only a loose bun was gathered behind her back. It was as thick and black as a brocade, reflecting the prism on the wall.Like a beauty walking out of the Huanghuang Han Palace.

Lin Xiuyi changed a few sets of clothes to meet Yuci, so she naturally knew that her appearance today was far better than before.She could see the admiration in Yu Ci's eyes, which was pure and innocent, without comparison.I don't feel ashamed.Thinking to herself that the Queen is indeed the Grand Tutor's granddaughter, Yu Ci admired Lin Xiuyi's beauty, but she was completely unaware of her own beauty.Lin Xiuyi didn't feel that she was out of harmony - Yuci's background, character and demeanor allowed her to deal with it calmly without relying on her beauty.This is the real lady.After all, how long will it be good for Israel to serve others?

Yu Ci supported Lin Xiuyi, and when she heard her coughing, she gave way: "It's cold outside, let's talk indoors."

Lin Xiuyi didn't refuse, and followed her into the house, took something from Bi Yuan, and let Bi Yuan go down again.Said: "The concubine has been ill for a month, and the concubine took care of her in many ways. The concubine is clumsy and only embroidered a bamboo pattern. I have the right to thank you. Please accept it."

Xie Ci had learned embroidery by herself, but she felt that the kind of slow work was a waste of time and energy, and she was determined not to do it.But I liked it very much when I received this kind of gift, so I unfolded it by myself.

I saw a tall and straight green bamboo on the gauze, the sharp leaves were like cutting, the frost was proud of the rain, and it was so beautiful.Li He's poem is inscribed on the side: "Entering the water, the light moves, and the green shadow springs in the void. The bamboo shoots grow in the dew, and the moss and frost roots." Although the poem is a little soft, the writing is sharp, delicate and steep, It's Yu Chi's favorite style.

Xie Ci knew that Jun Yi Dynasty was a talented woman, but she never thought that Lin Xiuyi's paintings and calligraphy were also so impressive.

Can't help but praise: "What a beautiful calligraphy and painting."

Lin Xiuyi smiled and replied, "It can't compare to Miss Ping'er next to the empress."

Xie Ci asked suspiciously, "Do you know Ping'er?"

Lin Xiuyi said: "We used to live in the same courtyard, and we all had some friendship with each other. Back then, Ping'er was the youngest, but she was the most considerate and thoughtful, and everyone loved her. She is good at poetry and painting, and she has a master in the inner court to guide her personally. Now it’s a little bit of a success.”

Xie Ci smiled lightly: "She said she couldn't read, and she held the pen with five fingers together."

Lin Xiuyi was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Back then she was the most popular, and everyone said that she would be selected with a title... Who knew that before she was selected, she had an inexplicable serious illness. After she got well, she didn't talk much, because she was seriously ill and burned out." Then she thought that when she met Jian Jun, she was about to die, but someone poured hot water on her the next day, and she couldn't help it. Bitterly said, "She is really, well, I don't know how to say it."
Seeing her expression, Yu Ci already knew that Nan Ping'er had a strange illness back then, and she was probably framed by others because she didn't know how to hide.She didn't expect Nan Ping'er to have such an experience. Seeing Lin Xiuyi's concern and loss, she said: "She is recovering from her injuries in the back hall. If you miss her, go and see her."

Lin Xiuyi shook her head and said, "She has such a strong personality, she definitely doesn't want to see me at this time..."

Seeing that she was depressed and silent, she patted her on the back and said, "How do you know it's not a blessing? It wasn't because of her illness back then, and now she might have been buried in Yuling. It's dangerous, but it's just a minor injury, and it will be healed after a few days."

Lin Xiuyi's eyes were red, she looked at Yuci, nodded with a smile, and said, "Fortunately, she is by your side."

Yu Ci deliberately changed the subject, so she pulled Lin Xiuyi to the desk, and said with a smile, "I happen to have a treasure here, which is hard to find in the world. If you meet it, come and take a look."

Lin Xiuyi was exquisite and translucent, and hurriedly followed. When she looked closer, she couldn't help being stunned. She stretched out her hand and gently traced the handwriting across the air, saying: Here. .this. .this. .yes?

Xie Ci smiled and said, "Do you recognize this book?" Lin Xiuyi hurriedly withdrew her hand and said, "I didn't know the book at first either.Back then when she entered the palace and took the women's history exam, she kept guarding the ancient scrolls of the lamp every day, and felt lonely.Afterwards, I slowly fell in love with calligraphy, reading and practicing calligraphy in the secret mansion, and gradually felt more tender than the colorful world..."

Xi Ci smiled and said, "So you are the last female historian. I think the repair and maintenance on this volume is very good, and I thought it was a steady old aunt."

Lin Xiuyi stared at the volume with tender and nostalgic eyes, and said: "The concubine's grandfather kept his name secret."

Yu Ci paused for a moment, "Is that the owner of Shu Guzhai who is 'addicted to books'?"

Lin Xiuyi nodded: "My mother has been fascinated by her since she was a child. Although she is not a talented woman, she is the best at maintaining and restoring ancient books. I followed her since I was a child, and I got a little superficial."

Yu Ci smiled and said, "So you were also born in a scholarly family."

Lin Xiuyi said indifferently: "My grandfather built Shuguzhai, and the family gradually ran out of cooking rice. He was reluctant to sell the books, and his life became increasingly difficult. The richest man in the town, Lin's family, was greedy for his grandfather's fame, and was willing to offer ten thousand dowry gifts to marry my mother... my mother After marrying, I realized that the Lin family already had a mistress."

Xie Ci listened quietly - she didn't expect Lin Xiuyi to tell her such a private thing, but she could see that Lin Xiuyi didn't slip up because of a momentary feeling, but came to talk to her on purpose.Then do not stop.

"After my mother got married, my grandfather learned that she was a concubine. He was so ashamed and angry that he couldn't get sick, and soon returned home. The grandfather was worried about my mother's situation in the Lin family, so he left a thousand volumes of rare ancient books and said that he would pass them on to his grandson. The Lin family Coveting those books, I was kind to my mother at the beginning, but after my mother gave birth to a concubine, she had nothing to do. The uncles couldn't support the family business, and gradually sold all the books in Shuguzhai. Since then, the mother's situation has plummeted, and often I can't eat enough."

According to the law of this dynasty, when a wife is married, the marriage certificate is written, but for concubines, the contract of sale is written. Concubines are like cattle and horses, and even people and belongings are the private property of the buyer.Therefore, Yang Shou left the inheritance to his grandson instead of his daughter, which is considered far-sighted.It's a pity that Lin Xiuyi is not a man.

"The concubine was 15 years old and the day when she was born, my mother died. The Lin family didn't want to raise a loser, so they sold the concubine to a 60-year-old official official to be a concubine." Lin Xiuyi said that tears were streaming down her face, but No choking.His expression was indifferent, as if he was telling someone else's story, "It happened that the late emperor was drafting a talent show. According to regulations, the Lin family must have a daughter. Mrs. Lin was reluctant to kiss her daughter, so she left the concubine for the selection."

Yu Ci opened her mouth, a little at a loss, and asked, "Then the one who came today..."

Lin Xiuyi smiled and said, "It was the three women who forced my mother to death."

Yu Ci held Lin Xiuyi in her arms in a daze, and Lin Xiuyi grabbed her skirt, from sobbing to crying, wetting a large piece of cloth.
