Rebirth of the Blind

Chapter 9 Kicks off

Knowing nothing about the palace, Xia was in fear all day long.Xiao Xizi warned him many times that the palace was extremely sinister and could not accommodate people like him. If he wanted to survive, he had to protect himself well and not show kindness indiscriminately. It was best not to step out of the room.At that time, he really wanted to blurt out, "You don't have to worry, because I am not qualified to show kindness." He was already in danger, so why talk about kindness?

Little Xizi didn't expect that the master he had always despised didn't take his instructions as nonsense. He didn't even step out of the inner room for a month, and sat on the bed every day, waiting for him to bring food, and then he walked to the house after calling. At the table, I ate quietly.

In my impression, beggars are always hungry, and they will stuff their mouths when there is food. I didn't expect this beggar to be a gentleman.

What Xiao Xizi didn't know was that the flaws in the past were the same as he knew. He would stuff food into his mouth before talking about it, until his father's favorite disciple watched him eat all the food on the table with a black face. , took off his shoes, grabbed his hair, forced his head to look up, then picked up the shoe board covered in black mud and slapped his mouth like this, until his mouth was numb and swollen A week later, it hurt even to say a word, and the man was tired from patting, so he stepped hard on his newly supported belly with his bare feet without shoes. At that time, Xia felt that his belly might burst, and then He died at this point, and the miracle is that he woke up, and his father didn't punish the man after that, but just looked at him lying on the concrete floor, dying, and said: "Remember in the future, there is nothing in this world that you can't eat too much." , What should be eaten in moderation.”

From the eyes of the old man, he could find the answer.

As a beggar, you must not allow yourself to be full. Once you are full, you will no longer be able to bear the taste of hunger. Also, being able to grab food and eat is your skill, and whether you can finish it is the key point of the test.

"The food is here." Xiao Xizi put the three vegetarian, one meat and one soup meals on the table, and soon heard the sound of Xia getting out of bed, walked over silently, sat on the chair, touched the table with her hands , after touching the chopsticks, Xia will smile happily.

"Today's dishes are fried beef with potatoes, fried crispy lotus root slices, green vegetables, fish slices in ginger sauce, what do you want, I will pick it up for you."

"Give me some crispy lotus root slices, can you?"

Xiao Xizi didn't answer him, and directly put a few pieces of crispy lotus root slices into his bowl. Hearing the slight noise, Xia picked up a little rice into his own bowl, and then gently inserted it into the bowl with chopsticks after chewing. After a few strokes, after feeling the obvious obstacle, he happily picked up the piece of lotus root and chewed it slowly.

Looking at the two dishes that had hardly been touched, Xiao Xizi once thought that the beggar did it on purpose.For a month in a row, the beggars did not move any dishes with meat, but the eunuchs could only reluctantly throw them away.

Xiao Xizi, who had been poor, couldn't bear it very much.

"Stir-fried beef with potatoes is not delicious? Fish slices are not good? Why don't you eat it?" Xiao Xizi asked.

Xu Shi could hear the displeasure in Xiaoxizi's tone, Xia put down her chopsticks, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I've never eaten anything good, and I'm afraid I'll have diarrhea after eating it." I went to that restaurant to eat a little food before After going back, he immediately vomited and had diarrhea. The conclusion is that his body is used to suffering, and he can't eat those expensive foods.

nice one?What good are beef and fish? !

Have loose bowels? !

Xiao Xizi put a piece of beef into his bowl, "I don't care if your stomach can bear it or not, it is impossible for you to be a vegetarian forever in this palace, although there is no possibility of you being lucky, but the possibility of accidents cannot be ruled out. Once you are really lucky, what should you do if your majesty wants to have a meal with you, do you still dare to go halfway and have diarrhea?!" Put the chopsticks back in Li Mozhi's hand, "From today on, you have to slowly practice how to eat meat .”

"..." Xia knew that Xiao Xizi said this only for his own benefit, so after hesitating for a while, he finally picked up the chopsticks and picked up the piece of beef that smelled like meat.

At night, Xiao Xizi brought some medicines from the imperial physician with a dark face.After all, Fenglan Palace is no match for Changlan Palace. Basically, the imperial physician will not come to see him, unless there is someone who is favored here.

With his head down, Wei Yan pretended not to see his beloved concubine Lin Lan, and kept his ears focused on the new emperor Ling Yuancheng who was dealing with busy state affairs.

Lin Lan's wink made her eyes almost twitch. Seeing that Wei Yan hadn't supported her all this time, she put her dissatisfaction in her heart, and her hand became sore from taking the soup in her hand, so she didn't dare to say a word.

The rest of the maids standing aside naturally lowered their heads the whole time, not daring to express anything.

Ling Yuancheng looked at the content of the memorial in front of him, showing a bit of displeasure. With a wave of his thug, red paint was sprinkled on the memorial, and red dots of different sizes stuck to the black and white words, which was very eye-catching, "It seems that the prime minister's My younger brother has done a good deed." He said words of appreciation suddenly, but his tone directly showed his dissatisfaction, he raised his head and looked at the seat under the throne, holding a cup of tonic soup with trembling hands, and threw a stiff face at him. Lin Lan, who was smiling, tilted his head slightly in Wei Yan's direction, and scolded Wei Yan, "Wei Yan, why didn't you remind me when Concubine Lan came?" Without waiting for Wei Yan to answer, he waved to Lin Lan and said, "Concubine Lan, come forward. say."

"...Yes, Your Majesty." As soon as the words came out, Lin Lan was horrified. How could her voice, which was like that of a yellow warbler, become so dry and harsh? !Not daring to change her face on the spot, she smiled sweetly and tried her best to ignore the numbness in her legs, and went up to the imperial platform with the tonic that was about to cool off.

The body leaned towards Ling Yuancheng naturally, and opened the lid of the cup with Lanhua fingers. Seeing that the soup was no longer steaming, he seized the opportunity, looked at Wei Yan, and said shyly to Ling Yuancheng: "Your Majesty, this soup is cold. Well, if it wasn't for someone not notifying you, the soup wouldn't have gone cold, this is the soup cooked by my concubine himself, so it was wasted."

Ling Yuancheng listened to Lin Lan's insinuations, without saying a word, scooped up a spoonful of cooled soup, and took a sip, "This soup is indeed a pity, it is very delicious." Hearing this, Lin Lan couldn't help but rejoice, "Concubine Lan , Wei Yan is the chief eunuch, who has been with me for many years, and he is the person who knows what I like best, he knows what needs to be reported to me immediately, and what can be put on hold." Lin Lan's hanging smile couldn't be maintained for a while , twitching the corners of his lips abruptly, "Your Majesty, that's not what I mean by concubine..." Hastily explained, never thinking that Wei Yan, a mere eunuch, would dare to put a hand between her and His Majesty, bow his head and pretend to be respectful Said: "Concubine Lan, if you have nothing to do, please go back to the palace first. Your Majesty still has many memorials to check."

With His Majesty here, Lin Lan couldn't show any dissatisfaction, so she could only take away her cup of tonic soup, "Your Majesty, my concubine will retire."

"En." Ling Yuancheng replied without raising his head.For those who don't know how to praise, they need to use some things to make her understand who she is.

After Lin Lan left, Wei Yan dared to step forward, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager asked about the woman sent in today by the courtiers a few days ago."

"How did you get back?"

"The servant only told the queen mother that the Jiang family only offered two women."

The Jiang family had gradually declined during the time of the first emperor, and it was rare that his mother wanted to bring the rotten tree back to life, but unfortunately he would not let the mother get her wish. "The queen mother must have hurt her leg. If my eighth younger brother is the one who inherits the throne, the Jiang family will definitely rise again. It's a pity...that's just an if." The current emperor of Ling Kingdom is his fifth son, Ling Yuancheng.

At this time, the Empress Dowager's Jinlan Palace is gathering the daughter of the Jiang family that Wei Yan mentioned.

The Empress Dowager, who looked at most 30 years old, was sitting on a phoenix chair, drinking her usual jasmine tea, looking at the two restless women with kind eyes, "Why don't you drink tea?"

The two women looked at each other, and replied cautiously: "Queen Mother, we two sisters have just entered the palace, and for a while, we were blinded by the phoenix face of the Queen Mother, please forgive me." Women, but they can talk, they can read words, they are smart and gentle, and they are good seedlings.

"Today Ai's family asked you two to come here, so you put aside your restraints and call Ai's family aunt."

"The little girl is terrified."

"The little girl is terrified."

They replied in unison.

"The Ai family doesn't know your names yet, how about reporting one or two?"

The woman who was only able to observe words and expressions just now hurriedly pulled the woman beside her to commit herself, "Little girl Jiang Yiyu, my sister's name is Qianxue."

Jiang Yiyu, the queen mother silently put this name in her heart.

"You should know that our Jiang family is no longer what it used to be. The Ai family is still there, and they can vaguely help. In the future... it will depend on you."

"Queen Mother!"

Seeing that the two sisters were about to commit themselves again, the Empress Dowager waved her hands in boredom and said, "You don't need to perform this grand ceremony again, it won't be too late to do so after you are crowned the next throne."

Jiang Yiyu listened to the queen mother's words, and buried her joyful thoughts in her heart, while her sister's face was blank. It's a pity for that good face. Jiang Yiyu often thought, if her sister's face was her own, how wonderful it would be .

My sister is illiterate, but beautiful as a flower.In vain, although she is a woman, she has a great ambition. If she can be favored by His Majesty, she can flex her muscles!Without an eye-catching face, in this harem, it is tantamount to losing half.

The queen mother's words made her see hope again.

"My little girl thanked the Empress Dowager."

The elder sister Jiang Qianxue saw that her younger sister was saluting, and hurriedly saluted. In fact, she didn't understand that the empress dowager can still get involved in matters like the latter?
