It would be more than half an hour when Su Jin washed his entire body and came back.
After so long, the bedroom where Huiming lived in the back house was already quiet. Su Jin was afraid that if he lit a candle again, Huiming would notice the light, so he just touched the night and returned to the west compartment lightly. Even the wooden door didn't dare to close too deadly, lest there be any movement.
After taking a shower in the front yard just now, after taking off the outer cloak, Su Jin, who was only wearing a middle coat, was still full of water vapor. She was better, and wiped it dry with a few pieces of cloth, but the three thousand trouble threads above her head But it's not so easy to dry out, especially when I walked in from outside in the middle of the night, and the strands were frozen, only frozen hard, and after entering the room, it softened a little due to the temperature in the room. , dripping with water droplets.
Su Jin didn't even want the dust and filth on her body to get on the couch, and naturally she didn't want to sit on the couch like this. Her wet hair stained the quilt and pillow sent by Hui Ming. He sat down with his knees bent on the front foot, guarding the heat of the brazier, took a soft half-dry cloth, and slowly dried his hair.
It was already late, and I had been in this darkness for a long time. Gradually, only relying on the moonlight thrown in through the window paper, Su Jin was able to see some faint outlines everywhere in the house. Su Jin watched quietly. The water in his hair evaporated into a white mist that rose around the brazier, as if he was afraid of disturbing someone. Gradually, his breathing became much lighter.
During the night shift in this big winter, there was no chirping of insects and birds outside, only the whimpering of the wind, and the female ghost crying at night, but Su Jin's face was calm, and he closed his eyes slightly. At this moment, Hui Ming was lying in a room less than ten steps away from him. In this silence, he felt an indescribable peace in his heart, as if even the sound of the wind seemed a lot more pleasant to the ear. .
In this rare peace and relaxation, Su Jin slightly relaxed his back, leaned back on the edge of Luohan's couch, and put it in the small purse on his chest again, took out the original wishful festival, and placed it in his hand lightly. Gently massage.
Hui Ming later sewed six small purses for him, and three different styles of ties. Su Jin carefully stored them one by one, and rotated belts around his waist. Some were worn out and could no longer be carried, but Su Jin did not put it away, but wrapped it in a purse and put it in her arms, taking it out every night before going to bed and taking a closer look.
This has been his habit for many years. Since under the Taiping tank in Ye Ting, the bare-headed little Huiming took his hand and stuffed this wishful festival into his palm, Su Jin has not called this little one. The network has left him.
No matter how tired he is in the daytime every day, when the night is quiet, when he touches this wishful day, he can remember the little palace maid who was like a chick, and he can tell himself that the world is not all that kind. A beast and villain who can bully the weak, he is clearly already low enough to dust himself, but he has to make it worse, stepping on the pain of others, and even a beast and villain who only wants to make fun of it. He lives in this world now, and what he has suffered is not all. Hunger, cold, suffering, humiliation and torture, in the palace, just around here, there is another person who will sincerely hope that everything goes well for him, treat her warmly, and comfort him.
Only when he thinks of that little girl, and only when people are not paying attention, by adding water, sweeping, or even pouring Yexiang to give the bucket, sneaking a glance at the only clean and bright little girl from the corner, he can Make yourself believe that "human nature is inherently good" taught by the master and elders, and believe that "faithfulness and integrity, the foundation of life" that you have learned since childhood. Only then can you learn the vicious and scheming tactics of those people, and climb out of that dark and filthy place. Those who haven't changed are like them, and they haven't let the filth stain themselves clean from the inside out, so that they can keep the last piece of their original heart.
But Su Jin also knew clearly in his heart that these were just his wishful thinking. Whether he insisted or comforted, it was all his wishful thinking on Huiming. Hui Ming himself did not know, and never cared about his existence.
His little girl has never had anything to do with him.
He originally thought that such a day would last until the day he died, but he never thought about it. Last month, he learned that she just missed a piece of material and was punished to stand in the cold wind for an hour.
Song Huiming is a good son of Caixuan who entered the palace. Although he will learn the rules and be taught a lesson, he is different from a sinner like him who came from an official and slave background. As soon as he enters the palace, he is trampled on by others. Exquisite, growing up in the deep palace day by day, it can also be called a smooth journey.
It is precisely because of this reason that Su Jin has forgotten that in this palace, as a palace servant, punishment is a common occurrence, even if it is not because of one's background, not because of mistakes, not to mention a serious master, even if it is just a boss. If your heart is unhappy for a while, it can teach you to suffer enough!
This is a common thing in the palace, and even if it is discussed in detail, Huiming's punishment is not too excessive, but because it is Huiming, because it is someone he has missed for many years, Su Jin is not a little bit. I can't stand the little girl he can't even hold in the palm of his hand, but in the eyes of the bureaucratic bureaucrat, she is just a mere lack of quality, and can be used to punish her at will.
It was enough to transfer her to the front of the royal family. At that time, Su Jin thought this way. He is not the same as before. He is also the eunuch in charge of the royal front. If you put her in front of him, with his protection, no one can humiliate her. , when someone else bullied her, she would not be delayed by errands and distance, and asked her to be blown in the cold wind for more than an hour before hearing the news to save her.
Furthermore, in Su Jin's selfishness, he only thought that if he was in front of him, he would be able to see her every day, instead of having to make excuses to go to the Directorate Bureau just to take a look at her from a distance. .
Because of this secret selfishness that made him secretly excited, Su Jin lost his proper sense, and he also gave up other suitable places consciously or unintentionally, and finally settled on the Gande Palace closest to him.
It is precisely because of this selfishness that when rumors spread that he and Hui Ming were eating each other in the palace, Su Jin, who was already guilty, just thought that he was not careful enough in his words and deeds, which made people see the clue. , only caring about Huiming's reputation and reaction, who was worried about Huiming, but he didn't even suspect that someone was doing something.
After that, it was even worse, and he and Huiming were actually brought to this stage today.
Thinking of Wei Shi, Su Jin's eyes suddenly sank, but he didn't want to think of such a spoiler at this time, so he lowered his eyes, and only forgot Wei Shi, who had run out of time. , got up and touched the hair room. After drying by the brazier for so long, it was already half dry. I thought it would be no problem to fall on the quilt and long pillow.
Su Jin wiped his palms, turned around and gently touched the bedding. The cotton top was Cangzhou forging, which was the best in this year. She was covered by Mrs. Tang for a while. The tentacles were warm and smooth. , and instantly thought that on top of the quilt, Hui Ming had originally slept for one night.
It was clear that there was no one around, and Su Jin was afraid that anyone would notice that he suddenly retracted his hand. I don't know if it was because of this thought that his face only felt a little hot. He bent down and placed the purse under the pillow, and after he also lay down, he immediately deliberately turned his attention to Huiming's future placement.
Forget it now, with His Majesty's approval, they have just lived in one place, and they won't be able to act rashly for three to five months, but he is determined not to implicate her like this for his own selfishness, not to mention, His Majesty's body I haven't seen any good, I'm afraid that there will be no peace in this palace in the future.
If he wants to get Huiming to get out, after the wind has passed, the only way is for him to find an opportunity and send Huiming out of the palace...
Su Jin clenched his palms tightly and curled up slightly, clearly in such a warm and soft blanket, but he didn't know why, but felt cold all over.
He only thought that this was the reason why he wanted to send Huiming out of the palace in the future, but he had no intention to change this idea, but thought carefully about what would be the most appropriate.
There is no precedent for a palace maid to leave the palace ahead of schedule due to illness. Su Jin slowly closed her eyes. Huiming had all his parents outside the palace, as well as brothers and sisters. He was not lacking in taking care of him. The furniture and money he had prepared for her over the years Enough for her to be rich.
The only thing to care about is that the heart is separated from the belly. Even her biological parents, blood brothers, may not be willing to take care of her for the rest of her life, and what's more, she will covet her furniture and tell her to be jealous. crime…
Just thinking of the possibility that Hui Ming might be bullied in the future, Su Jin only frowned tightly, no, he needed to entrust her to someone who had the ability, and he could trust her, who could really call her. After Huiming left the palace, a peaceful person came, and this person must not make mistakes again, because at that time, he was afraid that he would no longer have the opportunity to take care of her.
But where should such a person be told to find it? Only a few names emerged in my heart, and for various reasons, I asked him to go back one by one.
But Su Jin didn't think of more, perhaps because he hadn't slept in such a comfortable and warm place for a long time, and just arrived here, Su Jin, with his eyes tightly closed, had already slowly slept over, and he slept extremely well this night. Shen, and I don't know if it was an illusion, even this feeling only made him feel light and airy, as if he had left everything behind, as if he was in the clouds.
In the end, it was Yuanbao's slightly annoying voice that pulled him from the cloud: "Master! Master? Master, wake up!"
Su Jin didn't want to pay attention to him, and was about to go back to sleep when another familiar voice suddenly came into his ears: "Eunuch Su."
It was Hui Ming, Su Jin opened his eyes diligently, and just felt a soft, boneless, greasy palm removed from his forehead, followed by Hui Ming's tightly wrinkled palm. A frowning face.
Su Jin suspected that he still seemed to be dreaming, but the worry and anxiety on Hui Ming's face were too real, so he couldn't help but struggle to get up, and wanted to ask what happened, so that his little girl didn't have to. So worried, everything has him.
It was just that Su Jin opened his mouth slightly, and before he had time to say his question, he heard Hui Ming's voice clearly: "Eunuch Su, you are hot!"
