The palace is quiet, and the empress of the cold palace is acting as a demon

Chapter 33 The Disciple of Baishanmen

In the evening, after the snow was young, Ning Yi took Qin Wan back to the palace on a chestnut fox.

Qin Wan was lying on the bed in the cold palace, thinking about every word Ning Yi said to her, thinking about her relationship with Ning Yi.

Their status is naturally unequal, this is a very serious problem, and it is also the biggest contradiction in Qin Wan's heart.

Two people have a relationship and hope that this relationship will last. The basis is the equality of each other's value, and the energy of each other is evenly matched. It must not be a charity or gift from one party to the other.

Unequal values ​​create an emotional trap.This emotional trap consists of gratitude, touch, or other feelings that can lead to the illusion of love.

Just as Qin Wan does not deny that she has a good impression of Ning Yi, but she also clearly realizes that this good impression is just her dependence on the material conditions Ning Yi gave her when she was in trouble.

When a man thinks that he is standing on a high ground and wants to ask for a relationship with a woman, a smart woman should fight smartly-my aunt has many advantages, and you are stupid because you can't see it, so you are not worthy of talking to my aunt.With such momentum, even if he wants to swallow Kyushu's regent, it's nothing more than that.

Qin Wan hugged the quilt and listened to the sound of snow falling outside, telling herself to stay calm and sober like a snowflake.

Thinking about this, she once again fell asleep until the sun was rising.

A few days passed after watching the snow from the lake, and the sky became clear after the snow.

During this period of time, Ning also didn't know what he was busy with, since he came back from watching the snow by the lake, he didn't show up.

Qin Wan guessed that he was in Manpei County, maybe he was reorganizing the Beirong Navy, or some other important military and political affairs.She didn't take Ning Yi seriously and concentrated on researching brewing soy sauce.

Recently, she has been thinking about opening a pickle seasoning shop in Yingyang City to generate income for herself.On the one hand, it was because she and Ning Yi had no engagement, and Qin Wan felt that she was not that thick-skinned because she asked him to pay for her support; on the other hand, she felt despised when she was told by Ning Yi that she had nothing. , in order to prove that she is not penniless, she has to find a way to make more money.

Making soy sauce is not as simple as pickles. She asked Yuan Ying for soybeans and koji, soaked and steamed them. After seven or eight days of busy work, she finally started to dry them.

After Qin Wan finished all the work, she asked Shang Liuying to leave the palace.She is going to choose a shop in the best street market in Yingyang City.

Ever since Ning Yi lifted the house arrest, Qin Wan has always wanted to take Liu Ying out of the palace.

So the two of them took the badges for going out of the palace, got into the carriage driven by Yuan Ying, and went out happily.

However, they wandered around for a day, not only did they not find the shop they liked, but also because they had to keep the money on hand to pay the rent, the two of them were so tight that they didn't dare to buy more things.

But even so, for girls, being able to go out and go shopping in the palace is already a very good pastime.

When the three of them were sitting in the small teahouse drinking sweet tea, suddenly there was a sudden sound of horseshoes whizzing by on the long street.

People on both sides of the long street stretched their necks to look around, and Qin Wan and Liuying also joined the ranks of watching.

There are about 20 people in the team, wearing white jade crowns and wearing long swords, they are obviously disciples of a certain Jianghu sect.

The leader of the team is a girl about seventeen or eighteen years old. Unlike other disciples, she is dressed in lake green, carrying a silver long sword, her long dark brown hair is tied into a double bun, and she wears a water-colored white camellia hosta , next to the ears is a pair of round hole jadeite jade pendants, eyebrows are like slender willows, eyes are like autumn water, nose is like a hill, lips are like crimson pearls, very handsome and beautiful.

The team passed by in a hurry, and someone beside him recognized him and said, "All the people from Baishan Gate have come to Yingyang City."

As soon as Baishanmen was heard, there was a commotion in the small teahouse.

Qin Wan recalled it, it seems that Bai Zixian is the next head of Baishan Gate, and Ning Yi was also sent to Baishan Gate to practice.

At this time, another person said: "They are Baishanmen, so could the woman who takes the lead be Lin Rou, the only female disciple of Baishanmen?"

"You're talking about that Lin Rou who is called 'Baishan Mingyue'?! My God, I didn't look carefully just now, what a pity!"

Qin Wan and Liu Ying exchanged glances.

Liuying shook her head, indicating that she hadn't heard of it.

Qin Wan asked Yuan Ying beside him: "Young General Yuan, do you know that girl just now?"

Yuan Ying: "I don't know, but I've heard of 'Baishan Mingyue'. She is the granddaughter of Baishi Taoist, the previous master of Baishanmen, and the only female disciple in Baishanmen. It is said that she is very talented and good at using swords. Not only that, but the Bright Moon Sword behind her was specially made for her by His Royal Highness Prince Ning when he was practicing at the Baishan Gate."

I don't know whether Yuan Ying was unintentional or intentional, but she deliberately emphasized the last sentence.

To Qin Wan's ears, it seemed to have a certain sour smell.

However, Ning Yi was able to forge a sword for this girl named Lin Rou, which shows that she holds a lot of weight in Ning Yi's heart.

Liu Ying rolled her eyes at the direction where Lin Rou left and said, "It's another woman who came to rob Your Highness from the empress."

Qin Wan raised her hand and pinched Liu Ying's face: "What nonsense, I don't have that kind of relationship with King Ning. You should say that you are robbing Ning Yi from Yuan Ying."

Yuan Ying's face turned red, she stared angrily and said, "Your Majesty, this subordinate treats His Royal Highness King Ning..."

"Okay, okay," Qin Wan interrupted her, smiling nonchalantly, "Women understand women best, so there's no need to explain."

Yuan Ying: "..."

After a day of futile work, Yuan Ying drove Qin Wan and Liu Ying back to Yingyang Palace.

Back in the palace, Yuan Ying put Qin Wan and Liuying down and drove away.

Qin Wan and Liuying knew that she, the major general, had always been unhappy with the job of protecting them, so it was not difficult for her to send them back to the palace.

Because the distance from the palace gate to the cold palace is very long, instead of taking the main road back, they decided to take a shortcut through the garden, which would save a quarter of an hour of walking time.

Coincidentally, when they passed by the path between the flower hall and the small lake, the group of Baishanmen disciples they had just seen on the long street appeared on the opposite side.

The lake is on the left, and the rockery is on the right. Qin Wan only has two choices: going forward or going back.

According to her character, it is absolutely impossible to step back.

When Lin Rou and the others saw Qin Wan approaching, they were surprised, and asked the leading palace man next to him, "Eunuch Chen, who is the sister in front?"

Eunuch Chen also saw Qin Wan, and instead of answering Lin Rou's question, he saluted Qin Wan: "Young lady, please see me."

"Mistress?" Lin Rou smiled and asked Qin Wan directly, "Which empress are you?"

Hearing the sarcasm in her tone, Qin Wan knew that the visitor was not kind, so she didn't want to pay attention at all.

Seeing that Qin Wan didn't speak, Eunuch Chen turned around and explained to Lin Rou: "Miss Lin, this is Concubine Qin of Han Wei."

Lin Rou was exaggeratedly surprised, and then said to several Baishanmen disciples behind her, "It turns out that it is the empress left behind by Emperor Liang. I said that the senior brother has never accepted a concubine, so how could there be an empress?"
