When he arrived at the entrance of Jingfangzhai, Huiming's footsteps slowed down.
She still remembered the vigilance and dodging that the Seventh Highness had done to her yesterday, but she knew in her heart that she had missed the appointment, and the little Highness would naturally pay more attention to the situation. I was still worried that my sudden appearance like this would disturb the Seventh Highness.
Originally, I thought that when I saw Mammy Wang, I would first ask the little Highness about today's situation, but Huiming stood for a while in the sunshine outside the door, not waiting for Mammy Wang, but heard the main house open with a "bang" Wooden windows.
When Huiming heard this, he felt a panic in his heart, and he looked back unwillingly. Sure enough, a woman with a cloth towel covering her head and a light gauze covering her face, with only one pair of eyes showing, was standing outside the window and looking at her.
Hui Ming sighed secretly, but he didn't dare to show anything on his face, but just bowed his head: "I have seen Tian Guiconcubine."
That's right, in the main house of Jingfangzhai, it is the biological mother of His Highness the Seventh Highness. Tian Guiconcubine, who once favored the sixth palace with only a good color of national beauty and heavenly fragrance, was destroyed by illness later. Rong Yan, was sent to Changxing Palace.
That's why Hui Ming said that the Tian Guiconcubine he saw always looked like a stern look. The rumored sparse hair and pale complexion had never been seen before, the only thing that could be seen. Yes, there is only a pair of Jianshui eyes that have been passed down from the blood of the little highness, but compared to the clear and transparent eyes of the little highness, Tian Guiconcun's eyes are extraordinarily, um, amorous.
Just looking at it so often, it is a wink and blurry, affectionate, as if with a hook, it makes your heart skip a beat, just from these eyes, you can vaguely guess Tian Gui back then The concubine's peerless grace before she fell ill.
It's just that Huiming, who has gone through two lives, has long passed the time when she would be amazed by Tian Guiconcubine's eyes. She just didn't dare to slack off at this moment, and just waited in earnest.
Tian Guiconcubine in the window raised her chin: "Are you the newly opened palace maid?"
The voice was clear and crisp, and it was full of pride and self-confidence. If you didn't know it, you would have thought that the girl in the window was a good girl. The voice is, Tian Guiconcubine continued: "I heard that you are here from Yu?"
Hearing this, Hui Ming already had some bad premonition in his heart, and sure enough, Tian Guiconi's next words resounded: "Then when you were on duty in Qiande Palace, did you hear it? Has Your Majesty mentioned me?"
"Never." As soon as Hui Ming finished speaking, he took a step back imperceptibly. The next moment, Tian Guiconi's sharp voice rang in her ear: "Nonsense! How could it not be! Your Majesty must have thought of me! Why are you lying to me!"
Jingfangzhai just brought three main rooms of one bright and two dark in the small courtyard. She made such a screeching noise that the little prince next door could definitely hear it.
Hui Ming frowned tightly, and took a step forward abruptly, and when Tian Guiconi was taken aback by her action, he replied in a clear voice: "You are right! The slave has only been in the Gande Hall for a month. , the time when the royal court is waiting is very rare, when your majesty may mention the noble concubine, does the servant happen to be absent?"
It's not that Huiming couldn't just accept it and coax her into the past, but based on her experience, if she said so, Tian Guiconcubine would immediately ask her what His Majesty said. When did she say that, whenever she doesn't agree with the other party, it will be endless, and her reaction will only be worse than now.
In contrast, it would be more pleasant to say that it did not come directly.
Hearing this, Tian Guibi was stunned and lowered his head, as if hesitant. Upon seeing this, Huiming immediately persuaded him, "You should go back and rest, the sun and wind are blowing outside. How can it be good to put you in the sun again?"
Hearing this, Tian Guibi stroked her cheeks through the veil in a panic, nodded and said, "You are right!" She immediately ignored Huiming and turned around, and it was another heavy slap in the face. The window closed.
Seeing this, Hui Ming couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Almost all of them were glad that Tian Guibi was so easily dismissed today.
Not for others, but Tian Guiconcubine, who is really helpless.
Not to mention his appearance, Hengzhi Huiming has never seen the true face of Mount Lu, but the habit of his little highness is to be slow and quiet. He was provoked because he fell out of favor, and it was as if he was deliberately opposing the little highness, but he had the temperament to make a loud noise whenever something went wrong.
The little highness occasionally screamed loudly like crazy, but he was pushed to the extreme, and there was really no way to do it, but Tian Guiconcubine's noise was more like a half-old child, just taking care of himself without caring. The other people's sarcasm is obviously a mother, but the little Highness who is in such a situation will not let it go.
The most powerful one was after His Highness was enthroned, Hui Ming was inattentive, and the mother and son shouted together in the dormitory as if they were fighting each other. , but also smashed many vase ornaments on the Bogu shelf, making a mess.
Tian Guiconcubine was fine, no matter how loud the quarrel was in front of His Highness, he forgot to clean up within two quarters of an hour when he went back, and started to put a good pearl powder on his face, but after such a long time, His Highness was He couldn't recover for over a month. Even though Huiming tried his best to comfort him, he still huddled in the corner every day and didn't dare to move. Whenever there was a slight movement around him, he would be frightened by the Buddha beads. Trembling all over.
If it was someone else, even Empress Gu of the Middle Palace later, or the adults in the court outside, Hui Ming would have a way to persuade him, or even stop him and send him away. My biological mother, she couldn't stop her, and if she wanted to persuade her, she didn't listen to her at all. Once she remembered it, she was really helpless except for a headache.
Now seeing Tian Guiconcubine hiding in the house, Huiming was relieved, but he couldn't help worrying about His Royal Highness on the west side. After thinking about it, he was worried after all, so he simply put it down and waited for Wang Mama to come back. With a thought, he turned around and walked slowly into the house.
At this hour, His Highness had already woken up, and now he was neatly dressed, standing on the wooden couch under the window, staring motionlessly at the bare wooden chessboard in front of him, his expression seemed very calm, as if he had never heard Fang Caitian at all. Noisy concubine.
However, there was no response to Huiming's approach and greeting.
But Hui Ming was relieved, and right, in her heart, she always felt that His Highness was the little His Majesty in her previous life, and could not stand any stimulation. The "illness" of the little highness was much lighter than the last time.
"His Royal Highness?" Hui Ming called out softly, turned his head and saw the chess sheet that he had sent yesterday on the side table, and then stepped forward and brought it over: "How about I read the chess sheet with the little Highness?"
The Seventh Highness wondered if she was still concerned about her two previous missed appointments, but just sat motionless. Rao Shi Huiming waited patiently for a long time, but the little Highness refused to give her any more reaction.
However, it was much better without avoiding her like yesterday. With His Highness, Huiming had some patience. Since she didn't mean to refuse, she just assumed that His Highness agreed, turned around to look, and went a little further away. Some of them sat down on the low stools, and read the chess score in a low voice, sentence by sentence.
This distance and sound, if the little highness wants to hear it, he can hear it naturally, but if he doesn't want to hear it, it shouldn't be too annoying.
However, Huiming was still extra careful. One eye looked at the chess score in his hand, and the other side also divided most of his peripheral vision and paid attention to His Highness's reaction, until he saw the little Highness raise his head slightly and leaned his ear towards this side for a few minutes. , Then I couldn't help bending the corners of my mouth, completely relieved, and concentrated on reading the chess manual.
Just like that, after about two quarters of an hour, Hui Ming was reading a book, and when he accidentally raised his head, he saw a figure poking his head at the door.
It was Yu Gan. She had learned a lot of taboos about His Highness from Huiming's mouth a few times before, so even though she saw Huiming at the door now, she just smiled from a distance from the corner of her mouth. The little pear vortex, waved his hand, did not enter the room at will, and did not make any sound.
It just so happened that Huiming's chess sheet was almost recited. Seeing this, she just gestured to her to wait a moment, and then continued to recite this section for the little highness. He said that the little highness thought about it for himself first, and the rest Let's wait for her to come back tomorrow.
After speaking, seeing that there was no response from His Highness, Hui Ming put down the chess manual, went out and closed the door of the house, pulled Yu Gan to a secluded place, and asked, "Why are you free today? Not worth it?"
Yu Gan pouted and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty is ill, and the concubine Xian has been guarding the sickness in the side hall for the past two days, so I will take leave."
Huiming has also seen the temper of the concubine Xian, and even encountering them by chance in the Wanxi Palace has to make things difficult, not to mention watching the night office in Gande's house with his own eyes, Huiming nodded clearly after hearing this. , and asked: "At this time, everyone is afraid that they don't want to go to the night, right? How can you be allowed to leave?"
Yu Gan smiled playfully: "Others are not allowed, and I have to be allowed first! Who told His Majesty to like me? Yunhua didn't dare to be hard on me!"
Ever since the Wei family went to Wanxi Palace, Madam Xu brought up Yun Hua, the oldest servant girl in the women's division, to take charge. That Hui Ming also knew that she was a good old man with no temper. Those who are willing to offend, and although Yu Gan has only served twice, but His Majesty's preference is obvious, and this is not arrogant.
Knowing that Yu Gan was naive, he was not that frivolous, so Hui Ming didn't say much after hearing the words. He only said some words with more care in his usual actions. Yu Gan responded with a few words, and became impatient: "Okay, I know, by the way, I'm here to find you today for business purposes."
"What?" Hui Ming said, and sat down under the corridor.
Yu Gan solemnly bowed to her: "Please, Sister Song, help me make a needle and thread that I can handle!"
With such an attitude, Hui Ming smiled, and only raised his head and asked, "What needlework? What are you going to do?"
"Send someone."
"Send to whom?"
"Mammy He from the palace government!" Yu Gan said, looked left and right, got close to Hui Ming, and lowered his voice: "It's the several nannies who adjusted/taught me to sleep at the beginning."
Speaking of this, Hui Ming's face flushed, and he lowered his voice: "What are you looking for?"
Yu Gan, who has always been hearty, finally showed a bit of bitterness on his face: "Your Majesty's health is not good, and your energy is not good. When you ask the palace maid to sleep, you always have to play some other tricks. I can't stand it, and I want to prepare a gift. , go and ask mammy if there is any way to make me feel more comfortable? Or think of a way to make your majesty have fun first, so it won't always bother me like that."
Hui Ming suffocated when he heard the words, and was speechless for a while, Yu Gan looked at her complexion, as if he had misunderstood something, but sat up straight again and frowned: "Do you also think I have no shame? I discussed it with my sister before, and she just said that everyone is like this. As a woman, it’s okay to suffer, but why do you have to suffer when you feel so uncomfortable? It’s clear that the mother taught me before, it shouldn’t be so painful. !"
"How could it be!" Hui Ming quickly grabbed Yu Gan's palm, and only shook his head and said, "Don't put a hat on me, I'll prepare needles and thread for you. Seriously, I've never seen anyone looking for them. Help with such a big temper!"
Hearing Hui Ming's complaint, Yu Gan's complexion improved instead, she pursed her lips a little embarrassedly, and came over again: "I heard that you and Director Su are living together, Su. Is the manager difficult for you in that matter? If not, can I ask you for help?"
In the palace, there will be some eunuchs with high grades who are in positions of responsibility to bully others, and find some little palace maids who are good-looking and humiliating, and put them in the room, but these are different from serious eating, and they are forced not to say it. Because the eunuchs are different from ordinary people, it is said that the forced maids will also be tortured between the beds, and there are often even those who are so humiliated that they would rather commit suicide.
Huiming had vaguely heard of such things a few times before. In her previous life, she was so afraid of Eunuch Su at the beginning, and there were a lot of them because of hearing about these things.
But once again, Hui Ming, who had just asked Eunuch Su to bring facial grease early in the morning, naturally did not want to let Eunuch Su take on the reputation of such a low-level work in vain, and immediately straightened his face and said solemnly: "You don't Nonsense, Eunuch Su is not that kind of person!"
Huiming had never spoken so harshly to her before, Yu Gan was startled, paused, and then held back his mouth a little aggrieved: "It's not, it's not, you're great, even if it's not, you can't ask. Do you know how many pairs of food in the palace are not aware of the particulars, the stupid light will sleep honestly under a blanket, and how much fun has never been enjoyed!"
Hui Ming really didn't understand. She entered the palace at the age of ten, and she was not a palace maid who specialized in sleeping, but what was the situation of the serious couple outside, and how could she have a child, she was still ignorant, not to mention Mo Tine The prisoner and the maid.
This, among them, will there be a lot of attention? I don't know, Eunuch Su, do you know
Just thinking of this, Hui Ming's complexion immediately turned red like steamed shrimp, she turned her head to the side, and she couldn't even speak smoothly: "Then, then I'll prepare two gifts for you... Thank you, you too. Help me ask..."
