Chapter 12 Chapter 12
"You were saved by Young Master Liu?" Outside Liuli Huafang, the eldest princess was very surprised

That Young Master Liu was the head of the cabinet at a young age, but he was cold and devoid of warmth. If it wasn't for the little friendship from his grandfather in the early years, he might not have been able to invite him.

Can such a person save others?

"Maybe it's a coincidence."

"Gu Ahman is lucky."

Thinking that I had spent so much manpower and effort, just to match up with an ignorant and incompetent petty official.

The First Prince's concubine's breath was unsteady, and she coughed violently. The nurse next to her skillfully poured out a few pills from the sachet at her waist.

The eldest princess waved her hand, "I just drank it before I came out, no need."

The nanny put the things back again, and gently pushed the meridian on the hand for the eldest princess.

The eldest prince's concubine's face was extremely gloomy, she closed her eyes and calmed down for a moment, "Everyone has made arrangements for me, since they want to have that big spring and autumn dream, let them have enough."

At the water pavilion, women and maids surrounded Gu Aman and went to the courtyard in the backyard. Gu Aman was drenched in water, and the warm sun above her head could not penetrate her pale face. The worst thing was that she lost her shoe in the lake. .

"Please Madam, find me a nearby guest room, and let the maid beside me bring a change of clothes."

"Miss Gu Si, don't worry, the servant has already ordered people to prepare hot water and clothes, just waiting for the girl to go over."

It's only been a while since I fell into the water just now, Xiaoshui's maid and mother-in-law just found it, and the hot water was prepared really quickly.

Gu Aman showed embarrassment, "Grandma understands, I just soaked in the water for too long and lost strength, I will feel weak all over, I'm afraid I have a fever."

The wives looked at each other.

Gu Aman was ashamed, "Why, there are so many guest rooms in the First Prince's Mansion, so there is no room for me to rest for a while. Forget it, it seems that I am not welcome, so I'd better just go back to the mansion!"

"Aman girl, don't be angry." A nun wearing green plum flowers on her temples walked out from the shade of Yuhua. As soon as this person came out, the surrounding women and maidservants became quiet.

"This is next to the courtyard of the fifth girl of the Gu family, why not go and rest for a while."

Gu Aman showed hesitation, although it was only for a moment, she was noticed by the nanny, "If Miss Aman is afraid of worrying the sisters in the whole family, why not go to the Yunxian Pavilion not far from here."

The nanny asked the servants to carry the soft sedan chair, while explaining to Gu Aman, "It used to be the residence for the second girl, but after Miss Yunfu went to Hongxiashan Girls' School, it was vacant, but Sweep from time to time, and carbon is readily available."

"The second girl Mammy mentioned is Miss Wang Yunfu Wang?" Gu Aman looked surprised, "I heard that the master of the Lvyun Hall in Hongxia Mountain is very strict in accepting apprentices, even if the princes and nobles don't have real talents and learning. Unable to enter, I didn't expect Miss Wang Er to have such a good talent."

The nanny smiled, "The second girl is smart, but no matter how smart she is, she can't compare to the eldest prince and concubine of the past. She was able to rank sixth in the twelve flower orders of Hongxia Mountain and hold the red lotus order."

Gu Aman has never heard of these things, she only knows that the students in Hongxiashan Girls' School are all dragons and phoenixes, and any one of them is a well-known talented woman in the world, and among them is the Twelve Flowers who command hundreds of flowers. in the world.

She did not expect that both the eldest princess and concubine were born here.

It never occurred to me that a person with such a family background as the Great Prince Concubine could only be ranked sixth, so how amazing would it be to be number one.

Gu Aman asked the nanny a lot about Hongxia Mountain, and the nanny knew everything, but after all, the servants didn't know much.

The soft sedan carried Gu Aman all the way to Yunxian Pavilion.

Everything is available here, the little charcoal-burning girl looks younger than Gu Aman, her little face is flushed with fiery redness, and she quickly backs away when she sees someone coming in.

"Why is the charcoal smell so strong?"

"Returning to Mammy, it rained two days ago and it was a bit damp, and I didn't dare to ventilate for fear of chilling the girl."

Seeing that Mammy didn't speak, the little girl continued to report.

"The water was brought from other courtyards, and the clothes were the new clothes of Master Yunfu. I went to invite the doctor, and I have sent someone to send a message to the maid sister next to the girl. I think she will come to serve in a short time."

Only then did Mammy seem satisfied, and nodded, "You are quick to do things at a young age."

"It's just that the fourth girl is a guest, so how can you let the people around her serve you? You go and send a message to let Fenghua Xueyue, the personal maid of the prince concubine, come over. No matter who it is, you can't neglect the distinguished guest."

The little girl was about to run out when she got the letter, and she listened to the distinguished guest before she lifted the curtain.

"Just her."

So in the steaming room, there was only the little girl who seemed to be serving someone for the first time, standing aside awkwardly holding her clothes.

She secretly raised her head to look at the little guest who left her behind, and saw two fingers like the tips of bamboo shoots protruding from the black sleeves embroidered with Buddha flowers and golden lotuses. They were stirred tenderly in the water, and in the dense heat, The sleeves hang down and the wrists are like snow.

"You are so pretty."

Realizing what she said, the little girl blushed, "I will undress you, servant girl."

The little girl didn't care that Ah Man's shoulders were high, and she had to stand on tiptoes when doing things. She really didn't serve anyone very well, and she was sweating in a hurry even in a loose coat.

"I'll do it myself."

The little girl lowered her head in embarrassment, "You should agree to Mammy's suggestion, servant girl... Numaid is far inferior to the four sisters Feng, Hua, Xue, and Yue who are beside the princess. They were trained by the mammy in the palace. I heard that in the past, there were other gentlemen from other mansions who wanted to marry, but the status of servants was too humble, and I only met two of them."

Seeing that Gu Aman was soaking in the water with his eyes closed and didn't respond, the little girl blushed and kept silent.

"What do they look like?"

Gu Ahman in the bathtub spoke slowly, apparently she had been listening all the time.

The little girl obviously didn't expect Gu Aman to respond, and was flattered, "Although Huaying and Zhuxue are not prettier than you, they are both first-class beauties."

Gu Aman raised his forehead and frowned. Although there were occasional responses, his expression was extremely exhausted, and even the doctor looked disgusted when he saw the doctor. Fortunately, he carried this kind of medicine for wind-cold disease with him, and Gu Aman took it. The two pills couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep on the small table.

Almost as soon as the person left, the sleeping person lying on the small table bowed his head and spit out the pills, but the time was too long and the pills melted a lot.

"Girl, servants come in to add charcoal for you."

It was the little girl who was burning charcoal, and Gu Aman hurried back on her knees.

Then there is the sound of turning on the heater and burning charcoal.

The little girl who was quick and nimble before, now and then caught the charcoal fire, and her eyes, which were always in embarrassment, kept looking at the sleeping person.

Only after seeing beads of sweat dripping from the tip of Gu Aman's nose and his cheeks turning rosy, he closed the door and left with satisfaction.

The nanny wearing green plum flowers was waiting outside the door, and when she saw someone coming out, she hurriedly asked, "Is it done?"

But the little girl didn't seem to hear her, and walked past her with a raised face.

"This little girl's status is probably higher than that of this nanny."

Gu Aman, who was pasted on the window slit, muttered to himself, but what did they mean by "it's done"?
The doors and windows of the house were closed tightly, and the incense burner was lit to burn hot charcoal. People felt stuffy and dizzy in it. Gu Aman used his hands to make a fan. He was so cold in the lake before, but this time his nose was hot and sweaty. It was crystal clear, and her cheeks seemed to be on fire.

"You have to get out of here quickly."

It's a pity that in this carefully selected Yunxian Pavilion, the doors are locked and the windows are closed. Gu Aman tried one by one, but was disappointed again and again, and as she walked back and forth, her hands and feet became more and more sore Unable to exert herself, she took a few steps drowsily, but staggered and fell to the ground.

The aroma in the incense burner was steaming, and the fire in the stove was fierce. Gu Aman was like a trapped animal helpless, and like a fish caught in a net, he could only open his mouth and wait for the fish to be stabbed.

"I can not be reconciled!"

Her lips were as red as blood, her sweat-soaked hair was curled against her face, her eyes had begun to blur, and Gu Aman had even begun to see some colorful hallucinations.

A dying fish will fight back even if the knife is held high.

In a daze, she touched her hair, where Gu Aman touched the hairpin she was wearing, and she gritted her teeth.

Gu Aman couldn't remember how many times she stabbed, she only remembered the joy and astonishment when she tried to climb under the window and watched the cool wind pour in from the window.

The window is open.

But she didn't drive it.
