Because of the arrival of a good friend, Chu Qingyan felt that the days were no longer so dull, and on the days when the big ice cube was not there, there was also a companion to talk to.
Especially in the past few years, the account books accumulated in the palace have also been reviewed with help. Having such a right-hand man is simply a multiplier.
The arrival of Xining relieved Jasper a lot of burdens. At the same time, Xining, with so many years of experience, was quickly recognized by the servants and took over the affairs of the inner courtyard together with Qingyi.
Hongyi saw that Chu Qingyan was surrounded by her own people, the power of the inner court was taken over bit by bit, and she was no longer the beloved maidservant she used to be, and she felt very uncomfortable. The seeds of resentment take root and sprout little by little.
"Have you found that Hong Yi is very wrong recently?" Lu Yi asked Huang Yi.
Huang Yi was washing the vegetables and shook her head when she heard the words, "I've been researching new dishes recently, but I haven't noticed. What's wrong with her?"
"Although she is not in charge of anything at the moment, but she looks preoccupied all day, I wonder if she is not feeling well?" Lu Yi asked worriedly.
Huang Yi shook off the water droplets on his hand and said with a smile, "Maybe Hong Yi is a hard worker. Now that she has nothing to do, she feels uncomfortable."
Lu Yi couldn't find any other explanation, so she could only nod her head in response, "Maybe."
"Lu Yi, I have something to say, I don't know if you want to hear it or not."
Lu Yi noticed that her tone was a little different from usual, so she couldn't help looking up at her.
At this time, Huang Yi had already walked up to her with vegetables in her hand, and saw her look slightly serious and said, "In the future, stay away from Hong Yi, maybe, she is not the Hong Yi we knew before."
Or, for so many years, they have never had any real her.
Lu Yi looked at her in surprise.
And Huang Yi smiled at her, then turned and left.
Lvyi is kind to people. In addition to her responsibilities, she rarely goes out of the yard on weekdays, and occasionally helps her sisters around her. She has a gentle personality and is a rare good girl.
Huang Yi looked up at the blue sky, she hoped that Lu Yi would not be involved in this vortex.
Good people will be rewarded.
And the wicked are punished.
She curled her lips mockingly, then strode away.
In a blink of an eye, the day of the Lotus Poetry Festival has come.
Chu Qingyan just wanted to dress up casually without being rude, but she didn't want to be stuck in her room early in the morning, trying on clothes one by one.
"Wow, Qingyan, you look good in anything! But this one is too plain, no—"
"Sure enough, she is a great beauty! But this one is not distinctive enough, so change—"
"This one is good, if I were a man, I would definitely bow down under your pomegranate skirt, but I'm almost there, change-"
Throughout the early morning, Chu Qingyan felt that she was being tossed around by her friends like a spinning top.
It wasn't until she heard a sentence, "This is it," as the sound of nature descended, and she was finally liberated.
However, the other party still didn't let her go, and personally put makeup on her and braided her hair.
After such a toss, another half an hour passed.
"I can finally understand why it takes so much time for a woman to go out, the reason is toss!" Chu Qingyan closed her eyes and let her fiddle.
"I promise to make you the most stunning, outstanding, and most eye-catching focus of the audience." Flower sleeves boasted while doing their own thing.
Chu Qingyan smiled embarrassedly, "Can't we be invisible people? Why are you trying to grab attention from others?"
Hua Xiuli sneered softly, "Do you think you can become invisible? You carry the title of the fiancee of the King of England. Wherever you go, it is the center of crowd discussion, okay? Do you have a little self-knowledge? Don't always think that you are a little flower. Grass!"
Chu Qingyan smiled helplessly, "Hey, it's really troublesome, I wouldn't have gone if I knew it earlier."
"It's too late." Hua Xiu stopped the words, took a step back, and said with a smile, "My beauty, open your eyes and see."
Chu Qingyan moved when she heard the words, and when the beautiful and moving appearance in the mirror fell into her eyes, she was a little stunned, is this her
"You cry because of your beauty?" Hua Xiu Li leaned over to look at her and smiled, "I said you must have never dressed yourself up seriously, you have such good capital, of course you have to dress up well and try to brighten up these people. dog eyes!"
At the palace banquet last time, someone made it difficult for her to show her face. She had already heard from the people in the house, so she was not angry, so she thought about dressing up her face well, and then she would definitely be able to overwhelm the audience. , frustrating the self-confidence of these people from nowhere.
Chu Qingyan was a little confused, "Don't you think this is too dazzling?"
"You don't need to worry about it, anyway, your big ice cube will be resolved if you cause trouble, isn't it, Your Highness?" Hua Xiu Li changed her tone as she spoke.
Chu Qingyan noticed the difference in her words and couldn't help but look up at the door, only to see a tall figure appearing at the door.
Hua Xiu patted her on the shoulder with interest, "Let's go after a cup of tea, I'll wait for you in the front yard."
After speaking, she flashed.
There were only two people left in the room at this time. For some reason, she felt that the air was a little thin, and she stood up from the chair uncomfortably. She chatted here and there, and said unnaturally, "I think it's almost enough. But the sleeve said it would be nice to dress like this, I-"
At this time, Xiao Xu had already walked in front of her, reached out and raised her drooping chin, and after the eyes of the two were facing each other, she heard his gentle and pampering voice.
"It's beautiful, I like it very much, but I don't want you to be seen by others." When Chu Qingyan, who was usually calm and calm, was also shy, she didn't dare to look at him, "Or, I'll change it, it's just a poetry meeting. , too conspicuous is not good.”
"No, although I don't want others to see it, I don't want you to hide your brilliance. You can be yourself, and you don't have to cover up for anyone, not even me."
The soft tone was full of pampering.
Chu Qingyan's heart moved, and she bent her lips and nodded.
It is really not easy to meet someone who tolerates you, tolerates you, indulges you, and knows that you understand you and love you.
"However, your makeup is a little flawed." Xiao Xu said in a serious tone.
"Where?" Chu Qingyan reached out and touched her face, not knowing why.
"The lips are not red enough."
"what-"
When she was about to turn around to look in the mirror, he was holding her body in his arms. She raised her head to ask, but a dark shadow obscured the light in front of her.
The lips were softly and domineeringly covered.
Toss, rub and bite.
"Hey, that won't work, it will come in the sleeves."
"She has gone to the front yard, and no one will disturb her."
"But it's about to leave."
"No hurry, we still have time for a cup of tea."
"Well… "
"Don't be distracted," he took a light bite and lowered his voice, "or I might have to add tea."
"… "
In the sunlight, two overlapping silhouettes were reflected on the ground, stretched little by little.
The sky is clear, the wind is gentle, and it is suitable for talking about love.
