Chapter 21 Shame

It rained for six full days, and finally on the seventh morning, it rained and the sun cleared up. The sun, which I haven’t seen for a long time, hung in the sky. Under the warm sunshine, it reflected colorful lights in the pools of water. .

Early in the morning, the two servant girls from Lanyue Palace opened the doors and windows, blowing away all the stuffy moisture in the house, and took a broom and wiped the cloth inside and out to clean it.Xiaolu and Qiulin have been in Lanyue Palace for more than a month, and they are familiar with all aspects of affairs. Qi Ping has an easy-going personality, and the two girls gradually get close to Qi Ping.

After being soaked in Qi's warmth, Shang'er finally tried on the new dress. The lake-blue outer shirt set off her original fair skin more vividly.The boss's workmanship is good, just listened to Qi's general description, and cut the clothes just right. Unfortunately, the sleeves and skirt are a little too long, and Chang'er has to take care of daily housework, so it is inconvenient to move around. .

Originally, the neckline of the dress had fluffed up, and the cuffs had a small hole due to long-term wear and tear. Chang'er planned to wash the laundry and mend it with pieces. The so-called new three years, old three years, mending and mending for three years.

Now that Qi Yi has taken over the job of barnyard officer, he can say that he can earn ten taels of silver a month. Apart from the monthly expenses for pens, ink and books, it is more than enough to make a few clothes for Shang'er, so he persuades Shang'er that since he has new clothes and old clothes Throw it away, besides, this dress has been worn for three years, and the clothes were grown when the clothes were grown, and they were made too big at the beginning, but after three years, the sleeves and shoulders are a little tight, if it is not for the unreliable master, it should have been changed long ago up.

Unexpectedly, Chang'er didn't appreciate it, she rolled her eyes and stared, and said: "Slaves like old clothes, they are not the kind of people who have new clothes and throw away old clothes."

These words were full of sourness, Qi Wei inexplicably touched his nose, scratched his head and said: "I said you like the new and dislike the old, then keep this clothes, wait a few days, and then make a new one. "

Anyway, there is a difference between master and servant, even if Qi Ping is used to Chang'er again, Shang'er knows how to measure, folds the new clothes, wraps the starting point in oilcloth paper and nods, agreeing to Qi Ping.

After lunch, Qi Ping checked that it was about the same time, so he asked Chang'er to take the wrapped clothes and went out together, leaving Xiaolu and Qiulin to look after the house.

Xiaolu and Qiulin continued to finish the unfinished cleaning work in the morning. Seeing that the weather was nice and pleasant, they naturally didn’t need to wait for the master’s absence. They moved the chairs and coffee table to the yard, and brought melon seeds Snacks, while eating melon seeds, while doing homework.

The two are about the same age, they are both sons and daughters of a good family. Qiulin entered the palace half a year earlier than Xiaolu and is also slightly older, and she is more calm in the world. Xiaolu is lively by nature, but clever and clever. I studied with Mammy for more than two months.

Since the first emperor, there are not many concubines in the harem, and there are far fewer court ladies than the previous generations of emperors. It was not easy to meet someone who was about the same age as him and had a good personality.

Let’s start with my parents, and then I recall my elder sisters and younger brothers in my childhood, how many acres of land and what kind of crafts I do in my family have all become topics of conversation. In the end, even Wang Agou from the next village looked at me a few more times and chatted endlessly. endlessly.Both of them are at the age of first love, and they are interested in such topics themselves.At this point, the topic naturally came to Qi Zhi.

Lanyue Palace is located in a remote place, and does not receive the emperor's great love. It is not as good as other places in terms of court ladies' rewards, but Qi Yi is sincere and polite to his servants. Since the assassin's attack, Xiaolu and Qiulin have become more Qi Ping took care of him without any complaints, and like Chang'er, he regarded Qi Ping as an existence like a fairy descending from the mortal world.

"When do you think the second prince will come to marry our princess?" Xiaolu threw a melon seed into her mouth, recalling the portrait she saw a month ago.

"I heard from the princess that we won't be able to come until the end of autumn." Qiulin counted with his fingers, "It will take another six months."

"Six months!" Xiaolu Zhiyi looked up at the blue sky with one hand, and blinked her eyes a few times, "Isn't it still half a year? I see the princess often in a trance these days. She shook the dust in the room, and she kicked all the chairs over."

"Yes." Qiu Lin tilted her head and replied: "When she was practicing calligraphy that day, she stared at the brush in a daze, and didn't even notice that the ink splashed on her front."

Suddenly the little green thief laughed, and whispered into Qiulin's ear: "Sister Qiulin, do you think our princess is..." Chichi laughed, Xiaolu looked at the movement outside the door, and continued Said, "In the heart of spring, there will be no competition for flowers, every inch of lovesickness and every inch of gray."

The breath in the conversation made itchy ears, Qiu Lin pulled the distance between the two of them, poked Xiaolu's forehead with his index finger, and said angrily: "It's not big or small, how dare you say that the princess is pregnant..." The word said Without saying anything, Qiulin shook his head, "I don't think so. The second prince didn't even see each other. It's just a portrait. How could he care about it every day?"

This sounded reasonable, Xiaolu pouted her lips and nodded in distress, "Then what do you think is going on with the princess today? If it wasn't for the second prince...could it be...Wei Da..."

Before Xiaolu finished speaking, Qiulin's left palm sealed her mouth. Qiulin put her right index finger in front of her mouth in a terrified gesture, realizing that she had said the wrong thing, Xiaolu He quickly closed his eyes and nodded sharply.

The conversation reached a stalemate, and the two ate a few melon seeds in silence. After a while, Qiulin sighed slightly: "If that's the case, it will really be an inch of lovesickness and an inch of ashes."

Spitting out the melon seed shells in her mouth, Xiaolu hummed in a low voice, and the happy chat between the two maids came to an end in this sadness.

Qi Ping, who had just come out of the clothing store over there, sneezed twice suddenly, sniffing his nose, and Chang Er patted her on the back worriedly, and asked, "Master, are you catching a cold? Something was wrong two days ago, Even if you are asked to take the doctor's pulse, you are not willing."

Thinking of the dream of the previous two days, Qi Bing felt a burst of embarrassment on his face, "It's okay, it's okay, maybe the catkins opened, that's why I sneezed twice."

Shang'er nodded suspiciously, telling her instinctively as a woman, that her master, whom she has known for many years, has become too much recently. Although she has the same temperament and temper as usual, there is always an indescribable feeling in the details, which seems to be concealed Something seems to be a little more.

The two walked into the bookstore one after the other. Shopkeeper Pan couldn't hide his surprise when he saw another woman following behind Qi Zhi, and even Cuilian brought tea with contempt on his face.Chang'er is good at piousness, she is a complete little daughter-in-law, and when she finds a free time, the shopkeeper pulls Qi to the side, raises her thumbs up and says, "It seems that this old man underestimated Mr. Wen. Blessings of Qi people, tsk tsk."

Qi Zhi felt a headache, rubbed the center of his brows, and explained, regardless of whether the other party believed it or not: "Shopkeeper Pan, you have misunderstood, Chang'er is just a green plum, don't misunderstand the little girl."

Shopkeeper Pan has long been used to Qi Ping's secretiveness, no longer asking questions, but a face full of understanding, and then asked softly: "Did you take a good look at the things I gave you?"

Whenever these things are mentioned, Qi Zhe will feel a cramping pain in his stomach. Gritting his teeth, Qi Zhe arched his hands and said to Shopkeeper Pan: "Thank you for the kindness of Shopkeeper Pan, those things...I...I put them away carefully. .”

"Enen, that's good." Shopkeeper Pan narrowed his eyes and smiled, completely showing the expression of his disciple leaving the teacher, "The house should be cleaned up, Mr. Wen, let's go in."

Qi Zhi nodded, remembering that the main purpose of coming this time is to tell the shopkeeper that this will be the last lecture, and the reason is that the township examination is coming soon and he should study at home with peace of mind.Hearing that, the shopkeeper was full of regrets, and Qi Ping quickly comforted him by saying that the Empress Obituary announced that there would be a large-scale charity school, and there were several in the capital, and all the children here would have the opportunity to participate.

"After that, come and see more." After less than a month of getting along with each other, the shopkeeper liked this young man, so he smiled reassuringly after seeing Qi Zhi nodded, and let her enter the room to teach the children.

Because it was the last time, Qi Zhe said more content than before, and earnestly explained the confusion and literacy to those children. The children were also reluctant to part with Qi Zhe, so they held her hand and talked for a long time. Cross-hui.

As soon as Qi Yu and Chang'er stepped into the room, they felt an unusual atmosphere. The stools and tables that had been used to display had obviously been moved, the door was open but no one answered, and candlesticks were lit inside the room.Qi Zhi looked around and felt uneasily thinking of the day when the assassins came, the two of them walked to the back room lightly, but there was still no sign of anyone, and a sense of ominousness enveloped them.

The two of them didn't care about so much, they searched in front and back of Lanyue Palace in two ways. Lanyue Palace itself is small, but there are a front hall, several back rooms plus the front and back yards, not to mention the figures of Xiaolu and Qiulin. Even Mo Zha, who usually went out to meet Qi Ping's footsteps, was nowhere to be seen.

Meeting in the front hall, the two became anxious, discussed after a while, and decided that Shang'er would go out to check the situation, while Qi Ping stayed behind to search for some clues, and a black shadow stumbled in from the door.The two were really taken aback.

He fixed his eyes and saw that it was Xiaolu, who was out of breath when he saw Qi Ping and Shang'er, and hurriedly said: "Princess, Sister Chang'er, Mo Claw ran away!"
