Xingzi's state of mind has undergone a huge change, but Her Majesty the Queen doesn't know it at all.
Xingzi serves Her Majesty to dress up and dress up. In recent days, Her Majesty always pays special attention to her appearance and clothing. It may be because she has someone she likes. Xingzi chose a very dazzling walking swing for Her Majesty. Gold made a phoenix with its head upright. The eyes are made of red pearls from the South China Sea. Although they are only the size of a grain of rice, they are very valuable. In this world, there are few blood-colored pearls with such a perfect color. The tail of the phoenix is made of red pearls. It was cut and inlaid with colorful colored glaze, and pendants of various gemstones were indescribably dazzling. Xingzi carefully selected a suitable place for Her Majesty to embed in Bu Yao, but she heard Her Majesty say: "Recently, what is there in Nanjin?" Anomaly or discomfort?"
Xingzi shook her head: "Nothing, Lord Nanjin is fine."
Her Majesty the Queen looked at herself in the mirror, and showed a very satisfied smile. She felt that her appearance was alluring, even if she decorated it casually, she was as beautiful as a heavenly man. When she was proud of herself, she suddenly thought of the woman beside Nan Jin, and restrained her smile. After waving Xingzi back, she stood up, with a vague sense of jealousy in her chest, and asked, "Then, what about the maid next to Nanjin?"
Xingzi's eyelids twitched, and she replied: "It's also very well-behaved, nothing unusual."
Her Majesty the Queen smiled coldly: "Oh? Really? But from the moment Nan Jin chose her to stay and serve, she could no longer stay!"
Xingzi was sweating coldly on her forehead. She knew that if Fenghuang died, she would not be able to survive at all, because she was also poisoned by Fenghuang.
Kyoko lowered her head even more, hiding her uneasiness. Her Majesty was pacing around the room with a worried expression on her face. Kyoko asked tentatively, "Does Your Majesty have any concerns?"
Her Majesty shook her head and frowned slightly: "If you want to get rid of her, you must not let Nan Jin know about it, but how can you kill her without anyone noticing it, without making Nan Jin suspicious?"
Xingzi remonstrated at this time: "Her Majesty the Queen already knew that the maid was someone close to Mrs. Nanjin, why did she make Mrs. Nanjin unhappy? There are not many days until the wedding day, and Her Majesty the Queen can't do it at this time. It caused rumors and gossip, Master Nan Jin may not say anything, but he has a lot of guesses in his heart."
Her Majesty swung her wide sleeves: "What do you know! A mere maid who wants to get close to my man, since I know there will be criticism, I have to do it cleanly. At this time, I have already made up my mind, don't you want more?" Word."
Xingzi knelt on the ground, knowing that it would be useless to talk too much, so she had to keep silent.
In Yang Tingjing's room, Fenghuang was kneeling and sitting next to a few desks grinding, Yang Tingjing was concentrating on writing, Fenghuang didn't say a word to disturb him, he had always looked like this, handsome and out of the world, but isolated from the world, no matter Fenghuang was with him How long has he served by his side, he still has not said a word, just writing and reading quietly, for a long time, without changing a posture, Fenghuang observed that he often sees the history books of Southern Chu for a hundred years, as well as the current political situation Situation, people in the courtyard often came to see him, and sent piles and piles of books containing the list of Southern Chu officials, the detailed records and systems of the Southern Chu region, the laws of the Southern Chu, etc., all in preparation for his enthronement. Fenghuang was a little worried, but there was nothing he could do.
Fenghuang pondered for a moment, then asked, "Where is Master Nanjin from Nanchu?"
Yang Tingjing glanced at Fenghuang, and said softly, "People from Nanchu City."
"Your Excellency, have you never left Nanchu? There are many countries around Nanchu, such as Beichen Kingdom, Li Kingdom, and Yang Clan..." Fenghuang lowered his eyes and said with a lowered eyebrow, "Master Nanjin never thought of going to Looking elsewhere?"
"You are too noisy." Yang Tingjing said calmly.
Fenghuang was discouraged, and looked at Yang Tingjing reading a book by himself. Fenghuang felt a little sad in his indifferent manner, and she said in a low voice: "Then tell me, my lord, what fun things to see in Nanchu, slave girl, slave girl I'm not from Nanchu, so I don't know what interesting things Nanchu has."
Yang Tingjing said coldly: "Then I will give you a day off, you can go out and have a look."
Fenghuang immediately didn't want to talk, Yang Tingjing's tone was very flat, although he didn't mean to look down on her at all, but such a smooth tone with strangers made Fenghuang can't help but miss the time when Yang Tingjing doted on her in the past.
Yang Tingjing really doesn't remember what happened before, Fenghuang turns around and has a lot of preoccupations.
The courtyard was deep, and the rain outside was dripping down the eaves. Phoenix stopped in the gesture of grinding his hands and looked outside the door.
Yang Tingjing finally raised his eyes to look at her, Fenghuang noticed the gaze above his head, withdrew his melancholy, and saw that his pen was about to be stained with ink, but the ink he had been studying for a long time turned out to have dried up long ago, Fenghuang was startled, and again Added some new ink for his convenience.
After a while, she thought about it and asked him, "My lord, I want to ask you a question. I wonder if you can explain it to me."
Yang Tingjing nodded slightly before she asked, "Why did you choose to let me stay by your side to serve?"
His writing hand paused slightly, and it took him a long time before he replied, "Maybe it's pleasing to the eye." He was about to write, but he heard a voice from a court lady outside the door, "Master Nanjin, I'm the one sent by Her Majesty the Queen." Here, may I come in, I have something to discuss."
Yang Tingjing gave a deep acknowledgment, and the maid from outside came in. Although she had something to discuss, her eyes seemed to stay on Fenghuang's face.
Fenghuang stood up, realizing that this matter should have something to do with him.
Yang Tingjing stood up and said in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
The court lady looked at Fenghuang and said to him: "Her Majesty wants to invite Xiao Qi to come, so she specially asked me to come and bring Xiao Qi there."
Fenghuang was a little cautious, and asked her: "Did Her Majesty tell you what the reason is?"
The maid shook her head: "I don't know, your Majesty the Queen just ordered this matter, but she didn't say what the reason is. It must have been explained."
Fenghuang thought that since he was already in Nanchu, he must not be able to escape this woman, so he could only nod his head in agreement. In fact, he also wanted to see what she wanted to do.
Fenghuang replied: "I see, please ask my sister to lead the way."
The maid was just about to take her out, but Yang Tingjing stopped Fenghuang and pushed her behind her. She looked at the maid with firm eyes and said, "Xiaoqi won't go, you Go tell her."
Fenghuang looked at Yang Tingjing in a daze. He was subconsciously defending her, afraid that he would be hurt by Her Majesty the Queen? Fenghuang looked at Yang Tingjing's profile, feeling a little complicated.
