Rebirth of the Blind

Going to listen to the rain palace as promised, halfway there I heard a muffled thunder, Xia paused, Xiao Xizi hurriedly told him to go back to get the rain gear, after a while, Xiao Yinzi replaced Xiao Xizi and walked beside him, with lowered eyebrows and eyes , took the initiative to put his hand on his sleeve, and continued to move forward.

Along the way, he deliberately slowed down his pace, hoping to wait for Xiao Xizi to come with him, but Xiao Xizi came late. Xiao Yinzi reminded indifferently: "Gentleman, don't talk about slaves. On the day you were enthroned, Concubine Xue called you, maybe Your mind is not pure. Now that you are doing this, it will only give Concubine Xue an excuse to say that you despise her, so are you sure you want to use this speed?"

"I see." The existence of Xiao Yinzi was very clear in his heart, and Xiao Xizi reminded him more than once, but he felt that Xiao Yinzi would not do anything against him for the time being. makes sense.

Xiao Yinzi glanced at the dark sky, and silently quickened his pace, and stepped into the listening palace, the ground was immediately wet with rain, and the sound of pouring rain made Xia's already restless heart even more chaotic.

The oncoming maid bowed and saluted, "Kowtow to the gentleman, Concubine Xue ordered my servant to take you there."

"En." Xiao Yinzi took a step forward, and he immediately followed. Unexpectedly, the maid stopped and saluted him again: "Gentleman, Concubine Xue only said to take you there alone." So... ... Xiao Yinzi can't follow?As if seeing his concerns, the maid continued, "The servant will take you in."

It was obviously a simple sentence, but if it was normal, he would have agreed, thinking of what His Majesty had said to him for a moment, he threw away his sleeves and held Xiao Yinzi's wrist tightly, "No need, I'm not used to having no one around me. .Xiao Yinzi, let's go."

Maybe it was because of the rare look of indifference on his face, Xiao Yinzi smiled gratifiedly, but he didn't know it, he only heard Xiao Yinzi echo "No" and then walked forward ignoring the waitress who hadn't got up yet.

Standing up with confusion, the maid looked at the master and servant who passed by her, feeling more and more confused.This male favorite doesn't seem to be as cowardly as rumored.

No matter how elegant and luxurious her dress is, Jiang Qianxue's gestures are far from the bearing of a concubine. In the past few days, she has always been indifferent, and she lacks interest in everything she does, which makes people think that she is difficult to get close to.

There is not even a talking maid around her. The most depressing thing is that she said that she will gradually become a "gentleman" who is promoted by His Majesty today, a male favorite who has already competed with her. It was filled with clear words, and then when she came back, she happily told her about the situation in the palace of the male pet, which seemed to be belittling, which immediately made her feel depressed.

In the past few days, she has asked her younger sister to come and sit down here, but the answers she got were all hurtful words. Jiang Qianxue couldn't help but sighed a little. Seeing a thin figure, the godless eyes lit up immediately.

"Your Majesty, please return to your seat, or you will be underestimated by that male pet in a while." The older maid lowered her head and reminded, although she couldn't see anything on her face, she knew she was helpless.On the first day she was sent here by the queen mother, she knew that this empress was also a person who didn't play her cards according to the rules.

"..." Jiang Qianxue sighed after taking a look at the serious look of the waitress, walked silently to her seat, and quietly looked at the door with an expectant face.

The maid arrived before Xiao Yinzi, bowed and gestured, "The empress is inside, gentleman, please come in."

"Gentleman, step through this door and you will be there." Xiao Yinzi said with lowered eyebrows.

Xia nodded clearly, "Well, you come in with me."

A satisfied look appeared on Xiao Yinzi's face, and the corners of his lips were bent upwards: "No."

Only such a gesture can make others respect themselves.

The waitress seemed to want to say something, but she swallowed the words abruptly.

After entering the room, feeling the warmth in the room, Xia realized that Concubine Xue was indeed favored by His Majesty, and his palace had such a temperature only in the bedroom.

"Xia has seen Concubine Xue."

Wearing ornaments on both hands stacked on the lap, "Gentlemen are polite, in terms of rank, you are the same as me, so you don't have to be like this."

"No." Xia Qing had a cold face, only the corners of his naturally upturned lips made people think that he was smiling, because his eyes were not curved, it was more like a perfunctory smile.

Flicking Kou Dan's long finger aside, he glanced at the maid beside him, "I want to chat with the gentleman, you all stand back."

"No." Thinking that Jiang Qianxue was going to give Na Xia a bad rap, the waitress lowered her body and replied gratifiedly.

Xiao Yinzi rarely looked at Xia worriedly, and after the people gradually retreated, he had no choice but to retreat, and as soon as he went out, he saw Xiao Xizi who was wet and his face was full of water, panting, "Master, did you go in? "

"It's Junzi." Xiao Yinzi corrected, and then nodded, "Concubine Xue said that she wants to talk to Junzi alone."

After the door was closed, Concubine Xue did not speak, and Xia could only stand there until there was a crisp sound when the ornaments collided. Xia listened attentively to the soft footsteps until the inaudible fragrance came Between the nose, it didn't take long for someone to hold his hand suddenly, and then lead him away involuntarily.

He deliberately frowned, with a displeased look on his face, "Concubine Xue, Xia, I don't understand what you are doing?"

"What are you doing with such a birthright? It's not the first time you've met me."

This kind of cheerful and approachable tone is completely different from the previous arrogant and unattainable tone, which made Xia feel a little at a loss for his high-profile appearance, so he could only follow passively.

Concubine Xue pulled him to sit on the chair and didn't say a word for nearly a quarter of an hour, which made Xia's whole body stand up. He seemed to feel that Concubine Xue was staring at his face with her chin propped up.

The non-cold fingertips slowly slid from the tip of his eyebrows to his chin, and with curious eyes, he said quietly: "This face...is not very good." At least compared to hers, it is not very good.I always thought that His Majesty's male favorite has an indistinguishable face, which is why a beauty like Concubine Lan can be jealous of him, and because of jealousy, he ended up in the cold palace.

She had been curious for a long time, and it was because her imagination was too good that when she saw a male pet outside of Fenglan Palace, she mistakenly thought that he had escaped secretly. Now that she thinks about it, she is so stupid!

He had never seen his own face, but he could understand from Xiao Xizi's description that it was indeed not very good, and he tore off the one that stayed on his cheek, "I disappointed Concubine Xue."

Jiang Qianxue pursed her lips, and looked at Xia thoughtfully, "I think you are amazing to be able to stay with His Majesty for so long." After spending only three days with His Majesty, she felt breathless, "The palace legend Just listen to the words, those people like to exaggerate. You must be feeling uncomfortable now, I will secretly tell you a secret, in fact, His Majesty only favored me on the first night of my canonization." Gao Liang's voice turned lonely, "If I didn't take the initiative to ask, His Majesty might not even touch it." She looked down at Xia's unchanged face, but Xia knew that it was not easy to say these words.

"You should also know, right? The queen mother is my father's younger sister, so she is my only support in this palace, but I don't want to cling to the queen mother's aunt. Who doesn't know the difference between the queen mother and her majesty? I don't want to either. I have no choice but to wade through this muddy water." I stroked my belly, "My mother clan has fallen, and I need it to stand up again. I don't want to restore its former glory, but I just hope that my father will no longer be looked down upon by others. .”

"..." Xia didn't care who was favored, in fact, it had nothing to do with him at all, she just wanted to protect her own life.Hearing that cool female voice gradually take on emotions he didn't understand, as well as self-deprecating words, she couldn't help putting on airs for this man.

The truth is that he doesn't know if his expressionless face counts as putting on airs.

Touching his belly repeatedly, "The chances of His Majesty pampering me again are very low, so I must seize the only chance. If I can conceive Your Majesty's child, even if I am only a princess, the mother clan will be able to raise their heads in front of others." Come."

Xia didn't know why she said this to herself, and none of the scenes that Xiaoxizi said happened.What he understands best is that this person... has a lot of emotional jumps, and it can be seen from the next moment that he takes him to 'look' at her embroidery.

"You've been touching it for a long time, do you know what I'm embroidering?" Jiang Qianxue looked at Xia excitedly and asked.

Xia put his hand down, "I can't see anything." So even if he figured out the texture, he didn't know what it was.Even the flowers were imagined by Xiaoxizi's words.

Jiang Qianxue slumped her shoulders, "I embroidered this for the past two days. I didn't dare to say a word when your Majesty came here, so I could only embroider something to pass the time."

"..."

Jiang Qianxue was sluggish for a while, but she immediately regained her energy. She took his hand and touched the embroidered bandage. Her nose lingered with the fragrance of her body. She had never been so close to a woman before. Two blushes appeared on her face. Listening to the pleasant voice, it said: "I embroidered a bird in a cage, touch here, here is the head of the bird, its mouth is not long..." The voice is not soft, but it seems easy to let it go. He fell into it, listening to her description and the touch of her hand, let him have a real imagination of the bird, "If you like it, can I give it to you? But don't let others see it."

Xia didn't answer, but Jiang Qianxue had already removed the repaired caged bird from the embroidery frame, "Hide it well, but if you accept this thing, we will be friends from now on."

friend?Can he be friends with this person?He didn't answer, so Jiang Qianxue took him as the default.

Before he left, she specifically confessed that they must be estranged in front of people, and the reason why, he didn't know.

In a daze, he had a friend, and Xia didn't figure out what was going on until he fell asleep.

Yongyue put the 100 taels in front of the prime minister, watched the prime minister teasing the parrot, without looking at her, she held back the timidity in her heart, "It has been exposed that Mr. Dazai pretended to be sick, and it is not good for Yongyue to do business, so I should leave the silver taels intact Please return it to the prime minister, please don't blame Yongyue too much."

Putting the stick to tease the parrot on the table, Prime Minister Rui Cheng took a sip of the freshly brewed tea, "This tea is actually the best when it is freshly brewed, and once it cools down, the bitterness in the tea will make people directly Frown. The old man will never take back the silver if he gives it to you."

Looking at the silver taels on the table, and thinking about the meaning of the prime minister's words, Yongyue bowed her head and said, "Prime Minister, Yongyue will give you a satisfactory answer."

"You are a sensible person. You must have been in the palace for so many years for nothing. You can take the money today. Remember, the old man will never get back the money that has been given."

"promise."
