Ripple (that is, Yiyi) is the maid of Yiqing Building, and is deeply loved by her mother (the prostitute of the brothel).
Her appearance is not gorgeous, but it is a rare touch of beauty in Yiqinglou.
When I read the word "ripple", the first thing that comes to my mind is water.
Water represents purity, and the name is full of fairy spirit.
She has excellent piano skills and rich poetry.
According to the development of this situation, the mother of the brothel is also happy to see it happen.
Most of the women in the brothel started picking up customers at the age of fourteen. Some women who are talented but unwilling to pick up customers may be able to be pampered by their mothers until they are fifteen years old.
Ripple is one of them.
However, this kind of itchy white moonlight is the most likely to be missed.
A big man with status came outside, willing to pay a high price to redeem Ripple.
Ripple is not willing, because the other party is an old man who is old enough to be her father.
Her mother kept persuading her, "If you refuse, that master will not let Yiqinglou easily, Ripple, if you follow that master, you will definitely be valued by your looks."
Of course, what Mom said was half-truth and adulterated.
Ripple's appearance is outstanding and talented, but the biggest difference between her and the other women in Yiqing Building is... No matter how she is taught, she can't learn to seduce people.
Even if she was beating and scolding and forcing her to learn the charming posture from those sisters, she always acted stiffly.
If it wasn't for the fact that her mother took a fancy to her innocent face and tapped into her quyi skills, she wouldn't know how she would be tortured.
In this era, disobedient women are always easy to suffer, especially women like them who were born lowly.
If Ripple doesn't know how to grasp a man's heart, and when the man's freshness wears off, what will happen to her... It's hard to say.
Ripple refused repeatedly, and it dragged on for a whole month. The master's patience was polished and he gave an ultimatum.
My mother was worried. She didn't dare to offend powerful people and weighed the disadvantages, so she could only give up the ripples.
The last time, my mother discussed with Ripple in a good voice. After being rejected, my mother had other thoughts.
Ripple just drank a few sips of tea, his vision became blurred, and his head was groggy.
The little maid next to her slowly supported her arm, Ripple realized something, pulled out the hairpin, and stabbed her arm fiercely.
After staying here for three years, I haven't learned the ability to hook people, and I have heard a lot of dirty things.
Only in this way can temporarily stay awake.
Someone opened the door and came in. Ripple gritted her teeth and pushed the little maid away, and slammed into it fiercely. Taking advantage of this gap, she hurried to the door.
It may be a dead end to go out, but there is no way to survive here.
She just wasn't willing to admit defeat!
She only knows, to run, to escape...
Someone was chasing after him, and Ripple was caught.
Her consciousness was gradually losing, and with only the last of her strength, she grabbed something on the waist of the person who came, "Help."
Ripple fainted, but she held the golden bell tightly in her hand, unable to break it no matter what.
Ripple wakes up again and finds herself in an unfamiliar environment.
Seeing that the decoration of this room is completely different from the style of Yiqinglou, she is desperate...
After losing consciousness, she must have been captured and given to the old man.
Yiqinglou is not a good place to belong, but at least she still has some expectations, such as earning enough silver taels for redemption, or meeting a man she likes.
Although the possibility of these wishes being realized is extremely small, there is still hope, and now there is nothing.
Just when she felt despair in her heart, a strange maid pushed open the door and came in. Seeing that the girl on the bed had already sat up, she turned her head and ran out, "My lord, the girl inside is awake!"
Shi Yi, who had just woken up, frowned and walked directly towards the house.
Ripple didn't expect that the first person to find her was a handsome young man.
The person who came was dressed in a blue brocade suit, his facial features were handsome and clear, his expression was neither cold nor hard, and the pair of peach blossom eyes between the thick black and long eyelashes was a man with a hint of a smile.
Shi Yi walked to the bed, "Awake?"
Ripple was stunned, who is this person? What to do
Seeing her in a daze, Shi Yi reached out and asked for it, "Give me something."
"What?" she said naturally.
Shi Yi pointed to her hand.
Ripple looked down and saw something in her tender white hands.
Just now, he was only thinking about things, but he didn't notice that he was holding an object in his hand. He spread his fingers and saw that it was actually a bell.
How could she have this thing in her hand? !
The man reached out to take it, she subconsciously grabbed the thing and pressed it in front of her chest, not giving it to him.
Shi Yi raised his eyebrows with interest.
Row! This girl, grabbed it before fainting, and didn't pay it back after waking up!
"Who are you?"
"Shi Yi."
"Where is this?"
"Yunyang Palace."
Southern Yunyang Palace? Not the old man
No... the palace... the palace!
This is not an identity that she can offend, and Ripple hurriedly handed out the bell in her hand.
Confused, she hid in the bed, and asked cautiously, "I... why am I here?"
The man raised his brows and asked, "Have you forgotten?"
Ripple shook his head.
What happened after the fainting didn't matter at all.
Shi Yi glanced up and down at her delicate body, but didn't answer the question, only said, "The hand is quite strong."
Ripples: "… "
The current situation is very different from what she imagined. Facing the unfamiliar environment, she is still a little apprehensive.
Shi Yi put the bell in his hand and remembered the scene from last night.
At that time, he went to Yiqing Building with the other two brothers, and before he had time to do anything, the little girl rushed towards him and pulled the bell hanging from his waist.
When someone wanted to take her away, Shi Yi naturally refused, because the bell was still in her hands, and she couldn't take it out anyway.
When this happened, he had no other interest.
It was impossible for him to stand in the brothel and wait for a woman to wake up, but he had to get the bell back, so the willful prince simply redeemed the person.
Of course, just giving money is not enough, and by the way, I used my identity.
The old man who has bad intentions towards Ripple has identity, but he is no better than Shi Yi. After all, this is the younger brother of the current emperor's mother.
After her questions were asked, it was Shi Yi's turn.
He stood there swaggeringly, without any shyness, and asked directly, "What's your name?"
She subconsciously replied: "Ripple."
The man frowned and asked again, "Is there another name?"
another name
No one has ever asked her original name since she entered the Yiqing Building.
After deliberating for a moment, he slowly said a name: "Yu... Yu Zhiyi."
Perhaps, she also hopes that someone can remember that she was the original one.
Shi Yi nodded, feeling that the name was much more pleasing to the ear.
"Okay! You'll be called this name from now on."
Yu Zhi was stunned, what does this mean
After Shi Yi left, a little maid came in with water, "Girl, this servant will wait for you to dress up."
From the mouth of the maid, Yu Zhiyi asked many things again.
This is the Yunyang Prince's Mansion, and she just saw the casual man, who turned out to be the prince himself!
Looking back on the scene at that time now, Yu Zhi was frightened for a while.
She actually... actually took the prince's things under such circumstances, and the dialogue was patiently answering her so many questions...
After grooming, Yu Zhiyi was taken to another place.
Seeing Shi Yi again, she knelt down with her legs bent, "King, king, prince, slave, slave..."
Shi Yi picked up his hand lazily, without the prince's air at all, but laughed at her, "Yo, I haven't seen you for a while, stuttering?"
Yu Zhiyi blushed.
She clearly knew her identity, and she was afraid!
"Can the lord tell me... slave, why did the slave come to the palace?"
Shi Yi guessed that what she was going to ask was nothing more than a matter of Yiqinglou.
But he couldn't explain it to a little girl who bought it back, he just asked, "Why, do you still want to go back?"
Yu Zhi shook his head again and again.
She doesn't want to go back, she can't wait to go back there for the rest of her life!
"Okay, since it was bought by the king's money, wouldn't it be a disadvantage to send it back?" Shi Yi touched his chin, as if thinking seriously, and finally decided her identity on his own, "In the future, you will be the little boy of the palace. maid."
Yu Zhi was shocked!
She was assigned some light work by the housekeeper. After three days like this, Yu Zhiyi believed that she had really left the Yiqing Building.
You don't have to deal with those messy men anymore, you don't have to worry that your mother will give her to the old man, and you won't have nightmares every night and worry about being forced.
Everyone in the palace thought she was a homeless little maid brought back by the prince, and no one knew her identity outside.
It's just that it's so outstanding that some people can't see it.
"Look, it looks good, but it's different. We are still doing rough work in the palace for a few years. She's better, and you don't have to do anything every day."
"It was brought back by the lord himself, can it be the same?"
"Oh, then I didn't see the prince putting her in front of me. She's not a little maid."
This statement is contradictory, but I feel that if I can't be a master, why is it so easy.
Chuntao deliberately stumbled and handed her the watering can in her hand, "Yu Zhiyi, go over there and sprinkle water."
Yu Zhi had just arrived, but she liked this new environment. Even if someone deliberately added work to her, she had to endure it for the time being. After all, she was a newcomer to the palace.
Yu Zhiyi took the watering can over and watered it carefully.
But soon, she found the clue.
Different types of flowers require water and fertilizer, and if they are watered at the wrong time, they may die.
These... but no one reminded her.
As soon as Yu Zhi didn't say a word, he bypassed the flower and paid special attention to his work after that.
Chuntao failed to make another plan, but she avoided it every time.
Finally, Yu Zhiyi couldn't bear it any longer, and raised a warning face to face, "Chuntao, it's the seventh time!"
"I didn't do anything."
"Yes, you didn't do anything, you just stumped me on purpose."
People who were usually docile, docile, hardworking and bear no resentment suddenly counterattacked, and Chuntao was the kind of temperament unwilling to admit defeat.
Yu Zhiyi didn't know what he bumped into, so he reached out his hand subconsciously, and once again pulled off the... Jin Ling from Shi Yi's waist.
All the servants knelt down.
And the only master in the palace looked down at everyone, and tutted tepidly, "It's really strange."
King Yunyang is an idle lord, and he is not strict with the servants in the mansion. As long as he does his own affairs well, he can stay in the mansion well.
It also fosters the boldness of some people.
However, Shi Yi rarely appeared in person, because he felt that those behaviors like jumping a beam clown could occasionally relieve his boredom.
No, I came here in a hurry to watch a good show, but I never thought that my bell would suffer again—
Yu Zhiyi knelt on the ground tremblingly, holding the bell in his hand.
Others didn't even dare to lift their heads.
Shi Yi didn't have the majesty of his master, but instead squatted down in front of her and said, "It's the second time."
Obviously learn her words!
"Since they don't like you, then you..."
Halfway through Shi Yi's words, everyone's hearts rose, thinking that Yu Zhiyi had annoyed the prince and would be punished.
Yu Zhiyi felt terrified in her heart, "Your Highness atones, I beg your Highness not to drive the slaves and maids away."
If she was sent back to Yiqing Building, then she would never have such good luck to escape the second time.
Shi Yi tutted, "No matter how hard you try, this king's bell will be crushed by you."
"King, king, lord, slaves should die, please atone for your sins." She hurriedly put the bell on her hands.
Shi Yi retracted the bell and added the second half of the sentence slowly, "Since they don't like you, you can follow this king in the future."
The twists and turns, Yu Zhi was stunned and surprised!
No one expected it to end like this.
Shi Yi didn't get angry in public, but Chuntao was arranged to be sold by the housekeeper, without showing any affection.
The housekeeper called everyone together, beat them hard, and made them realize that whether it was because they didn't make any big mistakes, the lord would be absolutely ruthless once they made a mistake!
Besides, they also know that now Yu Zhiyi is a celebrity in front of the prince.
Yu Zhiyi cooked a meal for the prince that day, and the prince knew that her cooking skills were also very good, even better than the royal chef in the palace.
Yu Zhiyi became Shi Yi's personal maid, and those who were jealous of her in the past came to curry favor.
"I heard that you can play the piano and are good at poetry and songs?"
"Know a thing or two."
"Can you paint?"
"This..." She shook her head.
"Okay, change your clothes first, then come back to the study."
Shi Yi asked someone to give her a light blue and white dress, and even sent someone to dress her up.
The blue silk is tied into a girl's bun, and the long tassel chain falls from the golden flower hairpin, hanging down from the collarbone, and the soft swan neck is as white and translucent as white fat jade. The woman's body is soft and beautiful, and the Chu waist is not full in a grip.
"The girl looks so good-looking." Even the maid who dressed up afterwards praised her so much.
Yu Zhiyi smiled and said nothing.
I don't know when, Shi Yi actually came to the door in person.
"You ladies, dressing up takes so much time."
"My lord forgive me."
"Okay, come with me."
Yu Zhiyi followed behind Shi Yi step by step, unable to understand what the master was thinking.
"Go over and lie there." Shi Yi pointed to the couch and gave an order without refusing, "I want to draw you."
"My lord, is this not good?"
"This king doesn't like to repeat it a second time."
Now that Yu Zhiyi heard the second one, he was frightened, and hurriedly sat down according to his instructions.
Yu Zhiyi sat upright, trembling, for fear that he was doing something wrong.
"Relax."
"lie down."
Even when Shi Yi said this, she still looked tense.
"Are you afraid of me?"
"Don't be afraid."
In private, Shi Yi rarely calls himself the king.
And he coaxed so patiently, Yu Zhiyi gradually relaxed.
When Shi Yi asked her to be in the painting, Yu Zhi did not dare to move, so he kept posing.
Quiet and beautiful is like a beautiful painting.
Who knows, this painting is an hour.
The girl on the couch had closed her eyes and slept soundly.
When Shi Yi looked at the painting, he also looked at her, with a smile on his lips.
Fuzhong said that she was special, and it was true.
The bell on his waist is said to be a companion item. His mother asked him to wear it from childhood to adulthood, so he made the bell and other accessories into a waist accessory, which logically cannot be ripped off, but...
twice!
She easily tore the bell from him twice, and nothing else was affected, but the bell fell off.
Very strange.
Later, Yu Zhiyi wanted to see the painting, but Shi Yi said that the painting was not good and had already been thrown away.
The little girl lowered her face.
Since getting along with the prince these days, she has already understood his temperament. As long as he doesn't step on his bottom line, he is very easy-going when dealing with servants.
As for Shi Yi's bottom line, no one knows.
On a whim, Shi Yi shoved the brush into her hand, "Why don't you paint me like this."
Yu Zhiyi: "Absolutely not!"
If you want her to paint, I am afraid that the prince will really drive her out.
But Shi Yi had to ask her to write, so she could only do as she did.
She originally wanted to spend a flower, but those simple strokes were really nothing.
"It's stupid!" Shi Yi seemed to have found new fun, and he took her to the study every day to practice painting.
But Yu Zhiyi was really clueless in this regard. At the beginning, he had a guilty conscience to study. In the end, Shi Yi deliberately saw her jokes.
The little girl was teased many times, her face was buffed, she slapped the brush on the table, "I'm not drawing anymore!"
After speaking, he turned back to meet the pair of dark pupils and the expressionless face.
The little girl realized that she had made a mistake.
"Your Highness, forgive me." He begged for forgiveness, but he was wronged himself, with water droplets in his eyes.
Shi Yi touched her chin, but instead of being angry, she acquiesced to her petty temper, and nodded to herself, "As expected, it's better to be squeamish."
Seven days later, the two sons, who are also known as the three great dudes in the capital with King Yunyang, entered the palace, each with a picture of a beauty.
"My lord, where is your beauty painting?"
The three of them made a bet of 10,000 gold, and whoever drew the best beauty picture would win all the bets of the other two.
Now they have all brought pictures of beautiful women, but Shi Yi's hands are empty.
No picture, take the money.
When he returned to the study and spread out the picture scroll on the table, wasn't it a picture of a beautiful woman out of the world
Seasons change, and winter comes quietly.
During the royal winter hunting, Shi Yi hunted down a fox and made a snow-white fox fur cloak.
As soon as the clothes were delivered, it didn't take long for everyone to see the fox fur cloak draped over Yu Zhiyi's body.
For half a year, although she has been serving Shi Yi's side as a maid, everyone with a discerning eye knows that this 10-year-old woman will become the mistress of the palace.
According to how much the prince loves her, it is not impossible to say that it is the position of the side concubine.
Everyone in the mansion had to call her Miss Yu.
"Miss Yu, a distinguished guest has come to the mansion, and the lord asked you to serve tea."
"understood."
Yu Zhi was only trying to fulfill the master's order, but she didn't want her to go, which shocked the eyes of others.
The brave fourth prince and the idle ninth prince came to the Yunyang palace today. The Yunyang prince was friendly with the fourth prince, but the ninth prince was the fourth prince's younger brother.
When the ninth prince saw her at first glance, he couldn't take his eyes away anymore. Yu Zhi took a cup of tea and realized that the look in her eyes made her very uncomfortable.
Shi Yi frowned and said coldly, "Go on."
Yu Zhiyi quickly stepped back.
Before leaving, I heard the ninth prince's teasing voice, "Sixth brother, it's a blessing that all the maids in your house are so beautiful."
She heard someone in the mansion mention the fourth prince and the ninth prince, and praised the fourth prince as a well-deserved god of war.
The Ninth Prince... She had heard of it in Yiqing Building before, and she was famous for her sensuality and beauty.
Thinking of the look in his eyes when he just left, Yu Zhi felt a drum in his heart.
After an unknown time, she went back and forth. She hid behind the screen and heard Shi Yi's last sentence: "It's not just a maid, if the ninth brother wants it, I will give it to you."
Her heart ached.
After seeing off the two distinguished guests, Shi Yi returned to the inner room.
"You're so brave, you actually learned to eavesdrop."
"What Wang Ye said just now means... do you want to give me to the Ninth Prince?"
"I want to send it, what about you?"
The little girl was about to cry, looking like she was being bullied.
Shi Yi picked up his hand and was about to say something when the housekeeper hurriedly came to report, saying that His Majesty in the palace had summoned him.
When Shi Yi left the palace, Yu Zhiyi didn't need to listen to anyone's orders and returned to his own house, feeling very desolate in his heart.
Recalling the past six months, every scene of her getting along with the prince flashed through her mind.
He would teach her to paint, instruct the kitchen to prepare her favorite food, take her out to play in disguise, and indulge her occasional pettiness. If someone bullies her, he will be the first to stand up for her.
He was so good that she almost forgot the past, that she was just a lowly... maid.
She didn't dare to hope to get the sincerity of the prince, maybe the prince pampered her just on a whim, and was she really willing to be given to others like this
"Not a maid..."
The words hit her hard.
She asked herself was she willing
Naturally not reconciled.
In the afternoon, she saw that the servants in the courtyard were moving things.
The housekeeper urged, "You can be careful, the lord is very concerned about your own things, if you accidentally destroy something, be careful of your heads!"
The king is very concerned about his own things...
Yes, Shi Yi seems to be easy-going, but because he doesn't care about many things, he can do whatever he wants.
If it is classified as "own property" by him, it will be different.
Soft fingers slowly clenched into fists.
She has to fight for herself once!
into the night.
Yu Zhiyi was Shi Yi's personal maid, so naturally he should help the master to undress, but this kind of thing has always been done with the servants beside Shi Yi.
Today Shiyi realized something was wrong, and when he looked back, it turned out to be her.
"all?"
Yu Zhi always saluted him, "Yan Xin is not feeling well, besides, this is also a servant's responsibility."
Yan Xin was the servant who served him on weekdays.
Shi Yi waved his hand, "No need, go down and rest."
Nor does he have to be served.
But Shi Yi's behavior became rejection in her eyes.
Did you all start to resist contact with her because you decided to give her away
Then she can only fight once...
The hooking moves that once made her feel ashamed came to her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more nervous she became.
Tonight, I deliberately changed into lighter clothes, and I had to hold back my body cold.
Xu Shi had cultivated her courage in the past six months. Yu Zhiyi slowly moved forward and grabbed his sleeve with her small hand. She shouted softly, "Your Highness."
"Anything else?"
"Why do you wear so little?" He said, and took off his cloak and put it on her.
The girl who is about to dedicate herself: "..."
I haven't had time to take it off, but I put it on.
Yu Zhiyi rallied again, took off his cloak, and slowly took off his clothes, "One by one, I volunteered to serve the prince."
Just this sentence, the cheeks are already red like clouds.
This is really, so shameful.
She didn't dare to show it all, the white shoulders and the bulge on her chest also hooked the man's infinite reverie.
Shi Yi's face was slightly dry, and he quickly turned his eyes away.
Suddenly remembering why she was weird today, Shi Yi frowned, "Just because you want to stay in the palace?"
"Yes..." If she could, she would even want to stay here for the rest of her life, even if she was a maid.
"It's not necessary." The fire in Shi Yi's heart was instantly extinguished, and he suppressed the throbbing in his heart, "Go back."
His reaction made Yu Zhiyi even more chilling, he could turn a blind eye when he took off his clothes, not knowing whether to praise him as a gentleman or feel sorry for himself.
Yu Zhi bit her lip and knelt down behind him, "My lord, it's a slave and a servant who has overstepped."
She hadn't called herself a slave in private for a long time, and Shi Yi looked annoyed.
What the hell is he testing!
Turning around and seeing her cautiously retreating, Shi Yi reached out and clasped her slender wrist, "One by one, I won't give you away!"
The mood at that moment, from hell to heaven.
Shi Yi picked up the cloak and wrapped it around her again, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "This girl has been raised by the king for half a year, how can it be cheaper for others!"
"But, but..."
He himself admitted that he had to give her away to force her to this step.
Shi Yi laughed.
When I brought her back to the mansion, I also suspected that a woman who had been in Yiqing Building for three or four years could be pure
But this little girl is really stupid, she can't even coax a man.
If it were someone else, she would have been devoured long ago.
"Do you think that this king is in such good spirits, just pick up a little girl and keep it by his side?"
"Which housemaid have you seen so comfortable as you?" The cost of food and clothing is not an exaggeration compared to other daughters.
His hand slowly reached into the back of her neck, clasped it in front of him, and wiped off the grease on her lips, "One by one, I was worried that you would be afraid, but you brought it to the door yourself."
Smelling the unique fragrance of her body, he directly picked her up and walked towards the bed.
"One by one, give you one last chance to choose."
He has already stated that he will not give her away. If he doesn't want to now, he will let her go for a while.
But the shy girl had already filled her heart with honey, "I can do it."
The veil fell, and the lingering people formed a pair of shadows.
Until the red candle burns out, I hear her begging for mercy in a low voice.
Shi Yi sympathetically kissed her face and put a bell in her palm.
"Shi Yi has only married one wife in his life."
-Finish-
The author has something to say: After all, it was a marriage tied by the Red Line Fairy himself, so it must be different~
