Chapter 22

Views:

When Liang Yurong and Wei Luo came out, they only brought two elderly nanny with them. It was also the first time for the nanny to enter the palace. Obviously the New Wild Goose Tower is right in front of it, but I can't reach it no matter how I go, I go around a stone and return to the original place.

At this moment, the maids and eunuchs are busy in front, no one comes here, even if you want to find someone to ask the way, it is not easy. The two nuns were so anxious that their foreheads were sweating, when a group of nuns and court ladies suddenly appeared in front of them, surrounded by a little girl in a fine dress, walking towards this side.

Being able to walk anywhere in the palace, and with such a big presence, this little girl's background may not be simple. The mother secretly figured out Zhao Liuli's identity, bowed her body and stepped aside, waiting for the other party to report herself. Sure enough, one of the nuns with a little seniority and wearing a gray-blue veil asked, "Who are you? Why are you here? You are not polite when you see the princess."

It turned out to be a princess.

The two nuns hurriedly bowed and saluted, winked at Wei Luo and Liang Yurong, and reminded in a low voice, "Little ancestor, hurry up and salute with the maidservant."

Wei Luo had learned a lot of court etiquette from the Han family in the past month, and she handled it with ease. After saluting properly, she looked at Zhao Liuli generously. There are eight princesses under Emperor Chongzhen's knees, and the first five are all over ten years old. The sixth and seventh princesses are about the same age, one is seven years old and the other is six. The sixth princess is born to Empress Chen, and the seventh princess is born to Ning Guifei. I just don't know if the one in front of me is the sixth or the seventh

Wei Luo was looking at Zhao Liuli, and Zhao Liuli was also looking at them curiously.

She has been in the palace all year round, and the maids and nurses she has the most contact with are all older than her, and she rarely sees little girls similar to her age. Empress Chen forbade her to have contact with her seventh younger sister, Zhao Linlang. She was actually very lonely in the palace alone. Although her mother and elder brother loved her, she still wanted to have her own playmate. Zhao Linlang has a lot of playmates, every time she goes to the back garden, she can be seen talking and making trouble with a few little girls from the clan, it's very lively. But she could only watch from a distance, secretly envious in her heart. In fact, Gao Qingyang is not bad, but she doesn't come to the palace very often, and she doesn't seem willing to play with her when she comes here once in a while. It would be great if she was healthy, Zhao Liuli thought, if she didn't have so many diseases, she would be able to laugh and play like other little girls.

The two sides looked at each other for a while, and Wei Luo couldn't help but find it funny when he saw the other side looking at him eagerly, looking like he wanted to get closer but was too embarrassed to do so. She changed her mind, rolled her eyes, pointed to the Xinyan Tower obliquely behind and asked, "Do you know how to get there? We are going there."

Zhao Liuli pursed her lips and nodded slightly.

The nanny at the side had been instructed by Empress Chen, and seeing Wei Luo chatting with Princess Tianji now, she didn't stop her, and she was quite happy to see it happen.

Wei Luo wanted to go back to Xinyan Tower wholeheartedly. She and Liang Yurong had been out for too long, and no one would call the fourth aunt. The fourth aunt must be in a hurry right now. "Can you take us there?" she asked.

Zhao Liuli was overwhelmed by the flattery, with a hint of surprise showing on her small face, she nodded and agreed. She rarely comes into contact with outsiders. Due to her status, others never dare to take the initiative to talk to her. When they see her, they are either respectful or alienated. Now someone treats her naturally and asks her to help lead the way. She is naturally happy and blushes and says, "I happen to be going there too."

Princess Tianji's physical weakness was not caused by birth, but the result of intrigue in the palace.

When she was one year old, she was drugged by Concubine Shu's side. At that time, she almost failed to save her. More than a dozen imperial doctors surrounded her, and it is said that she was saved for a whole day and night. Although concubine Shu was given to death later, her health could not get better. Since then, she has been weak and sick, and has to drink medicine every day. She hated those bitter concoctions, and drank them for five or six years, and now she feels like vomiting when she smells them.

However, it is precisely because of those medicines that she can live until now.

After walking a few steps, Zhao Liuli's face turned pale, and she gasped slightly while holding on to the arm of Mother Qiu beside her, "Mom, I'm a little tired..."

Mother Qiu looked nervous, and hurriedly picked her up, "What's wrong, Your Highness? But you can't breathe?" At the end, she regretted, "It must be because I didn't take the medicine in the morning. It's all due to the servant. I shouldn't have indulged you. temper..."

At this time, Zhao Liuli couldn't listen to anything she said, she curled up, looking in pain.

Fortunately, here is not far from the Xinyan Tower, so Mother Qiu hurriedly carried her to the attic, walking side by side and told the maid: "Quick, hurry up and bring the sixth princess's medicine!"

Wei Luo and Liang Yurong followed behind, and only then did they know that she was the Sixth Princess Zhao Liuli.

On the first floor of Xinyan Tower, there were a few beauties dressed in gold and silver, who were chatting and laughing happily. When they looked up, they saw a nun rushing towards this side with a little girl in her arms, looking hurriedly, and muttering "His Royal Highness, hold on for a while". They were startled, and they all stood up to salute. Mother Qiu didn't bother to greet them, she put Zhao Liuli on the Babao Liuli couch, and stroked her back to comfort her, "Is Your Highness feeling better? Are you still breathing?" Get angry?"

After a while, Zhao Liuli's complexion turned better. Although her face was still pale, it was not as scary as before. She nodded slightly, only then did she notice that there were many people around her, all leaning over to look at her. Their eyes were full of curiosity, inquiry, and more of sympathy... She shrank back and slipped into the arms of Mother Qiu.

Aunt Qiu didn't pay attention to her emotions, and after a while a maidservant in an autumn-colored skirt came over with a medicine bowl, "Mother, the sixth princess's medicine is here."

Aunt Qiu took the large bowl of copper-clad enamel passion lotus flowers from the tray, gently supported Zhao Liuli to lean on Luo Yin's big pillow, and scooped up a spoonful of medicine to feed her: "Your Highness, come, let's drink this bowl of medicine It won't hurt anymore."

The medicine in front of him was both fishy and bitter, and Zhao Liuli knew its taste better than anyone else after drinking it for five or six years. She subconsciously felt nauseous, and shook her head stubbornly: "I don't drink, it's bitter."

After finishing speaking, she closed her mouth tightly, and refused to open it no matter what Madam Qiu said.

This made Mother Qiu very anxious, how can I do it without taking medicine? It was because I didn't take the medicine that I got so sick just now, if I don't drink it now, what should I do if something happens again later? For so many years, only this bowl of medicine has saved the life of the princess. Now that she refuses to drink the medicine, does it mean that she doesn't want her own life? Mother Qiu remembered how much Empress Chen had put in for her all these years, and couldn't help but shed tears.

"Your Highness, I beg you to drink the medicine... If you don't drink the medicine, the empress will be worried if she knows it..." She was so earnest that she wished she could drink this bowl of medicine for Zhao Liuli herself.

It's a pity that no matter what she said, Zhao Liuli just wouldn't listen, shaking his head and saying "Don't drink, don't drink". Mother Qiu brought the medicine to her mouth, and she smashed the medicine spoon with a wave of her hand, her eyes were red: "I don't take the medicine, why don't other people take the medicine, but I want to drink it? Mother, I want to be like them... I also want to fly a kite and kick the shuttlecock, I don't want to drink medicine every day... the medicine is bitter..." She cried more and more as she talked, and finally she cried so badly that she fell into the arms of Qiu Nanny.

After listening to her words, Mother Qiu was so distressed that she cursed the murderer all over her heart, "Your Highness..."

The two were in grief, and the wives and wives at the side finally saw the way, knowing that Empress Chen loved Princess Tianji the most, and they stepped forward to comfort her with all kinds of thoughts.

This one said that drinking medicine will make you healthy, and the other said that the princess should not cry, but it was useless. Zhao Liuli was still very sad and didn't listen to anyone.

Just when a group of people were helpless, a crisp voice sounded outside the crowd: "One, two, three..."

Attracted by the sound, everyone looked out of the attic together.

I saw a little girl in a cherry-colored light smoke skirt kicking a shuttlecock under the weeping willows, and another little girl was helping her count. The wives frowned, thinking that the two children were too ignorant, didn't they see the princess crying sadly? It's fine if they don't comfort them, but they kick the shuttlecock instead. They really don't know how to be polite.

But gradually, everyone was attracted by the little girl kicking the shuttlecock. She is as light as a swallow, and she has a variety of tricks. With a jump, the carmine red embroidered shoes firmly catch the shuttlecock falling from the air. With another light pick, she kicked the shuttlecock into the air again. When the shuttlecock fell, she hooked it with her left foot, jumped up and caught it in another posture...Single Feiyan, Double Flying Swallow, Yuanyangguai, Double Yuanyangguai, each The movements are all done flexibly and lightly, which is pleasing to the eye and makes people applaud. Unknowingly, everyone was attracted by her and stopped what they were doing to look at her. Even Princess Tianji, who was out of breath from crying, stared at her intently at this moment, so envious.

There are red silk sash tied on her bud head, and four golden bells are adorned on each of the red silk sash. The bells follow her beating, and every time she kicks, they make a crisp bell.

Accompanied by this sound, Wei Luo kicked a full hundred times and stopped. Her legs were sore, she hadn't kicked so many times for a long time, and a violent kick was a bit overwhelming. In her previous life, she was in the small farmyard, and when she had nothing to do, she kicked shuttlecocks with the little girl from the neighbor's house. She kicked more shuttlecocks than anyone else, and she could kick more than three hundred at most.

She certainly never thought that one day she would use this to tease a seven-year-old girl.

She picked up the shuttlecock and went to the attic, came to the Eight Treasures Liuli couch, looked at Zhao Liuli with a smile: "Princess Six, did I kick well just now?"

Zhao Liuli stared blankly, and quickly came back to her senses, looking at her with reverence in her eyes, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Okay!"

Not only is it good, it is simply too good! She has never seen a better kick than her.

Wei Luo pursed her lips, and said in a soft voice, "Do you want to learn?"

Zhao Liuli nodded her head even more, and got closer to her all of a sudden: "I think!" After finishing speaking, he paused and asked uncertainly, "Will you teach me?"

"Yes." Wei Luo smiled cutely. She had kicked too much just now, thin beads of sweat emerged from the tip of her nose, which glistened in the sun, making her face crystal clear. After she finished speaking, she took advantage of Zhao Liuli's joy to change the subject, and continued: "However, you have to be healthy to kick the shuttlecock, otherwise accidents are easy to happen. If you want to learn, you should take care of your body first, and then I will take care of you when you are done." teach you."

She didn't know why she did this, she probably felt a little sympathetic to her crying.

Zhao Liuli's eyes lit up, and she grabbed her sleeves and asked, "If I take good care of my body, can you teach me all the tricks just now?"

Wei Luo tilted her head to look at her, "Of course I can." After she finished speaking, she blinked and pointed to the medicine on the red sandalwood black gold lacquer tea table, "But you have to drink the medicine first."

Zhao Liuli was convinced by her, obeyed her words, and hurriedly said: "I drink, I drink, don't go back on your word."

Wei Luo supported her cheeks and smiled lightly, but said nothing.

Of course she won't regret it, because her body may not be well maintained. In the previous life, Princess Tianji was lingering and sick for more than ten years, her body was weak, and she finally failed to survive the age of sixteen. She passed away in 2008, reminding Wei Luo of herself. They were all equally pitiful and couldn't live a full life. That's why Wei Luo helped her. If she took medicine properly in her life, would she live a few more years

On the side, Mother Qiu burst into tears of joy, looked at Wei Luo with admiration, and was so grateful that she didn't know what to do, "The medicine is cold, and this slave has someone to warm it up, Princess, wait a moment."

Zhao Liuli agreed, and patiently waited for the maid to serve the medicine when it was hot. She didn't need Madam Qiu to feed her, she took the bowl and drank it obediently.

Xinyan Tower finally regained its calm, and everyone's eyes turned to the little girl beside the glazed couch, with different eyes. Wei Luo didn't seem to realize it, and was about to go upstairs to find the fourth aunt, when she saw Mrs. Qin coming down the stairs in a hurry, with a worried look on her face.

Wei Luo called her to stop: "Fourth aunt!"

Qin turned her head to look, saw that it was her, hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her, and without asking where she had been just now, she hurriedly said as she walked out: "Ah Luo, come with me quickly. Just now someone said that Chang Hong and There was a conflict between the prince of Ruyang and he was pushed into Taiye Pool by the prince of Ruyang... "

The smile on Wei Luo's face froze, and her little face suddenly became very ugly.

With Chang Hong's temper, how could he conflict with others? Unless the other party deliberately finds fault.

She was deeply impressed by Li Song, the son of Prince Ruyang, because Chang Hong's downfall in the previous life had a lot to do with him. It can even be said that he and Wei Zheng's mother and daughter joined hands to facilitate it.

Her eyes turned cold, it turned out that Li Song appeared at this time. Why are they arguing? He dared to push Chang Hong into the water. If something happened to Chang Hong, she would kill him a hundred times.

Wei Luo put her arms around Qin Shi's neck, her pink lips were drawn into a line, her expression was cold. Unexpectedly, when he raised his head, he happened to meet a pair of eyes.

Opposite the attic, by the Taihu Lake, Zhao Jie stood under the willow tree where she kicked the shuttlecock just now, with a smile on her lips, looking at her with deep meaning.

Qin Shi hugged her and walked faster and faster, leaving him far behind. He stood for a moment, and after a while, he followed like a leisurely stroll.
