Sometimes the palace is sunny

Chapter 29
"Xia He Xia He, what do you think of the orchid I embroidered? Sister An has always said yes!"

Early in the morning, Liu Tianxing knocked on the door of Xia He's room holding the purse she had just repaired.

The door opened, and Xia He came out with her hair combed up, her face was still plain, revealing a bit of fatigue from lack of sleep.

Taking a sideways look at the embroidery in Liu Tianxing's hand, she said with disgust: "The stitches are uneven, that is to say, only when others ask you to coax you."

Liu Tianxing still happily said: "In the past, you said that chicken feet are stronger than my hands, but now I just pick a stitch, which shows that my flowers are really good."

An Niannian walked up behind Liu Tianxing, and seeing Xia He yawned again, she quickly patted Liu Tianxing on the shoulder to make her stop making noise. Xia He had a really hard time these days, she and her maid The two of them took turns to take care of Qingying. Qingying had a stomach ache several times, and she stayed with her all night.

"Xia He, is Qing Ying feeling better?"

"Yesterday, a large piece came out again. The blood was much less than before, and the fever didn't go away. The doctor said that as long as you take care of it for a month, it will be fine." Speaking of Qingying's body, Xia He's usual mean face was full of tears With a smile, "It's hard for Miss Achi. She was so busy yesterday and brought medicine for Qingying. Both ginseng and angelica are good."

The speaker didn't mean it, but she listened intently. A few steps away, Cui Jinniang looked up at a few people, and then pretended to be innocent and watched the maid drying the freshly washed clothes.

The small courtyard where you can walk to the end with dozens of steps has always been crowded. There was only one half-dead pomegranate tree, and the extra pots of chrysanthemums in the corner were Liu Tianxing who talked with "Shen Shiqing" two days ago Got it.

If you want to see more scenery, you have to look up and stare at the tip of the golden ginkgo tree outside the yard.

Liu Tianxing asked cautiously: "Xia He, will Young Madam call me to talk today?"

There are so many desserts at Young Madam's place, Liu Tianxing gets greedy just thinking about them.

"Probably not, you should embroider your flowers in the yard." Holding a grate, Xia He parted the hair on her temples and forehead, and Xia He looked at the ends of her hair, talking on her lips. , "A few days ago, I was busy with things. The young lady has to take people out. Don't use your busyness to cause trouble for others."

Liu Tianxing groaned in disappointment, holding her embroidered things in her hands, and pouted her mouth: "In the past, the old lady and the second young master detained us in the mansion. Only the young lady taught me how to read and told me stories. Let me have some snacks, why is it that the Young Madam is holding us back at Zhuangzi now?"

These words silenced the courtyard.

An Niannian grabbed Liu Tianxing's wrist and pulled her back.

The two of them tugged into the room, and An Niannian raised her hand to pinch Liu Tianxing's fleshy round face: "You dare to say such things outside, you don't want your life!"

Liu Tianxing's face turned red, she struggled to get away, and patted An Niannian's shoulder in anger to express her anger: "Sister An, what are you doing! How can a person as good as the Young Madam do it for just one word? Annoyed me?"

Such a nice person?

An Niannian almost wanted to rub Liu Tianxing's head soberly. Where did the original steward of Zhuangzi and the woman who was sent to Zhuangzi go?Where are the women who escorted them here?The Young Madam has occupied the village for more than half a month. Didn't the mansion send anyone here?Where are those people now?

"Even if the young lady was really kind to you in the past, the young lady is different now."

Raising his hand to brush the dragon's hair, An Niannian sighed inwardly.

If the Second Young Madam, Shen Shi, is really a kind and deceitful person, why would the old lady give her to the Second Young Master's yard just to make her stare at the Second Young Madam?
Liu Tianxing seems to understand but not understand.

As soon as An Niannian pushed open the window, she saw Cui Jinniang's personal servant girl walking away quickly.

The cold wind blew in, and there was still some dust left in the charcoal basin used last night.

Looking at the golden ginkgo tree outside the yard, An Niannian said softly:
"Just act like a baby and be good, and live without thinking, but don't take everyone as a good person, you know?"

Liu Tianxing, who was not yet 17 years old, heard something half-understood, so she could only nod her head in a daze.

The two women didn't speak any more, and the small yard with a size of one inch could be seen at a glance, but it seemed that they could be imprisoned for a lifetime.

"I'm finally out of that broken courtyard!"

In a corner of the side courtyard of the Princess Mansion, Zhao Surui stretched his waist.

The pavilions, terraces and waterside pavilions in this yard are considered normal, and the magnolia trees have already dried their leaves, only the pines and cypresses are still green. In the past, Zhao Surui definitely didn't like such a place. He stayed in that village outside the city for a long time. He looked at the small courtyard and saw some beautiful scenery.

The yard was empty, only a woman with a half-sleeved gold silk cloak over a crimson brocade blouse looked at "her" quietly.

"Miss Shen, I have sent the imperial decree in your hand into the palace."

"Thank you Princess Yueqing!" Zhao Surui hugged his little aunt.

Zhao Mingyin nodded: "Although this place is remote, it's also quiet. Miss Shen can just rest well again."

After speaking, Zhao Mingyin turned and left the yard.

Looking at his aunt's back, Zhao Surui breathed out.

He really didn't want to explain to others that he had switched bodies with a woman, even if that person was his aunt who was close to him since he was a child, so he simply wrote an "imperial decree", which said that anyone who saw the imperial decree would help Shen Shiqing send the secret book into the palace.

After Zhao Mingyin saw the "imperial decree", he naturally followed it, and didn't ask any questions, which made Zhao Surui much more relaxed.

A Chi looked around in the house, and came out when he saw the princess was gone:

"Girl, do you want to lay out the things you asked me to pack here?"

"No need." Zhao Surui waved his hand, "Just put it in a box, and someone will take it away."

A Chi nodded, and she took a closer look at her girl's face, she still had the same smooth skin and long brows, and still had the same deep eyes, but it was not the same as before.

Zhao Surui turned around and took a look at the box he brought to the Princess Mansion.

The fragrance of Shen Sanwai's fragrance is not bad, so he packed it up.

Shen Sanfei's tea was good, and he packed it too.

The dew refined by Shen Sanwau was pretty good, so he still packed it.

The cushions that are often used on the literary chair, the hand warmer made of cupronickel, the paintings on the wall, the recipes found on the bookshelves... He packed everything that made him comfortable in the big village, and there was only one tunan left. Zhao Surui thought for a while, but finally held back.

A Chi only thought that his daughter was going to move to live in the princess mansion, but she didn't expect that, so she let out a sigh of relief and said with a smile:
"Now that I think about it, living in Zhuangzi is remote, but it's very comfortable after all."

Zhao Surui didn't speak.

Yes, at ease, you don’t have to think about quarreling with the courtiers, you don’t have to be wary of slaves and bullies, you don’t have to pay your respects to your mother, you don’t have to think about Moxi’s Duer headquarters day and night, and you don’t have to face the old face of the Minister of the Household Department who cries for poverty every day. , The world of Kyushu can be unloaded from both shoulders.

It's a pity that it's all just passing by, he's had enough of playing around, and he still has to go back to the numerous palaces and become his absurd emperor who is destined not to leave a good reputation.

"Girl, it's cloudy, you should go back to your room and rest first."

Zhao Surui smiled: "Achi, can you see which stone in this courtyard is the right size? I'll move a few more stones to practice my body."

After training, return it to Shen Sanwaste.

Useless body, useless mind, useless temperament... Shen Sanwao, Shen Sanwao, I have left you manpower, money, and physical evidence of how many times the Ning'an House has bullied you. If it had to be the same as before, I would have to kill someone.

It's a pity that His Majesty the Emperor didn't turn it into a stone after all.

Because it's raining.

The cold autumn rain fell on the pond not far away, and the servants of the Princess Mansion brought them meals with lanterns and food boxes.

A piece of bad fish, a piece of shredded pigeon fried in chicken oil, a piece of cold amaranth, as well as ginseng chicken and big pancakes. The dishes were good, but Zhao Surui couldn't get excited, and he barely ate half full. He thought in his heart:
"It's Shen Sanwaste who will be hungry when he comes back."

I feel better.

---

It was raining all night, and it was already the pedestrians chatting on the road. A group of people rode by on horseback, which alarmed the pigeons hiding from the rain under the eaves.

Hearing that Jin Yiwei came to the door, Princess Yueqing, who was practicing calligraphy under the lamp, paused:
"Take them to the west courtyard, no matter whether they come or go, they don't have to come to see me again."

"Yes."

The female officer went to the eaves, held up an oil-paper umbrella painted with golden osmanthus, carried a lamp, and went to the second gate to convey the princess' instructions.

A team of Jinyiwei consisted of seven people. They all wore coir raincoats and bamboo hats over the flying fish suits, making it difficult to see their faces clearly. Occasionally, the lights flashed and shone on their faces, and their faces were mostly dark shadows.

The female officer led the way in front, and led a few people all the way to the southwest corner. When they came to the courtyard, the leader bowed to her:

"Thank you, lady, for leading the way."

The female officer turned sideways and bowed, then waved away with a lamp and an umbrella.

After she walked away, Jin Yiwei, who took the lead, looked around, turned around and knelt down: "Your Majesty, my servant..."

"No need." The young man who had been hiding among the few people raised his head, revealing an extremely handsome face.

"You are guarding at the shelter from the rain. You are not allowed to enter without my invitation, and no one else is allowed to enter."

"Yes!"

Zhao Surui in the room yawned, and finally put down the notebook in his hand.

"These stories are really boring. In the end, they are all about making people want to be kind. If people in this world can be kind from now on by reading a few pages, how can there be such a thing as conquering the world and being an emperor?"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a light knock on the door. The knock was not very clear amidst the sound of rain.

Zhao Surui was stunned for a moment, and then there was a smile on his face: "A Chi, you open the door."

A Chi stood up quickly, and almost screamed when he opened the door.

A gust of moist cold wind swept into the room, with the man's voice interspersed:

"Girl, don't be afraid, there are hundreds of households in Jinyiwei, the low-ranking Jinyiwei. Jinyiwei was ordered to co-organize the property of Ning'an Bofu's occupation of the property of Shen Qi, the first co-organizer. The reason for bothering late at night is to ask the bitter master of the Shen family."

A Chi looked at his girl in some panic, but saw that "my girl" was staring at the door, and waved to himself casually:

"Why are you panicking, go out and find someone from the Princess Mansion and ask if they can bring some refreshments."

"Yes." A Chi walked out hesitantly, turning around every step of the way.

Zhao Surui still stared at the "man", but he saw that he took off the straw rain cape on his body first, and the rain cape mixed with water fell to the ground, making a broken sound.

Tsk tsk tsk, straight body, broad shoulders, long legs and narrow waist, he really didn't know that he could be so suave in a flying fish suit.

He was admiring his Yushu Linfeng, but he saw "myself" wearing a flying fish suit lift his foot to enter the door and was tripped.

Zhao Surui: "..."

Walking under the lamp, the "man" finally revealed his handsome and pale face.

"Civilian, Minfu Shen, see Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty, Long live, Long live, Long live!"

"Hey? Don't kneel on me with your body!"

Zhao Surui quickly sat up from the couch.

Watching "myself" kneel down to Shen Sanfei's body, Zhao Surui felt uncomfortable all over.

Shen Shiqing obediently did not kneel down, but stood aside with her head down:
"Your Majesty is wise, the women, the women really don't know how they could offend the dragon body. These days, they have been trembling until they saw your majesty's handwriting..."

"Come on, I don't think you haven't done nothing these days. You've really learned a bit of the essence of chickens, dogs, cats and mice and their trembling slaves."

Zhao Surui got off the couch and walked a few steps, and stopped when he found that Shen Sanwas body was a bit shorter than his own.

The panic on Shen Shiqing's face faded a bit, she glanced at "herself", then lowered her head again:

"Your Majesty, the woman is just a woman who is forced to injure herself. These days, she is not in a state of fear, she is cautious in everything, and she has no intention of causing trouble to the court."

"I let you be in trouble, how can you be in trouble? What kind of monsters and ghosts are you? Done for nothing."

Looking at Shen Shiqing's weak appearance with his own face, Zhao Surui looked bored.

Fortunately, Shen Sanwa didn't cry, otherwise he would have taken his body back with his front feet and buried her in the pond in front of him with his back feet.

"Chen Shouzhang, did you kill him?"

Shen Shiqing lowered her head: "It's about killing people, women..." Killing others.

Zhao Surui sneered.

"Ning Anbo, do you want to kill him?"

Shen Shiqing still lowered her head: "Although the women have had a difficult life these years, but..." The women wanted him to live a life worse than death.

Zhao Surui sneered twice.

"Have you looked at those censors who chatter in front of me every day? Have you picked someone who dared to stand up and beat them up?"

Shen Shiqing still lowered her head, and said cautiously: "The censor has a supervisory role, and women only dare to listen to him." By the way, they were scared out of their wits by not saying a word.

Zhao Surui sneered three times, and finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Trash! Trash! Trash! I called you Shen Sanwas really right!"

Kicking over a wooden stool in anger, Emperor Zhaode walked back and forth in the room several times with his hair on his hips.

"Have you brought my private seal with you?" He casually took off the white jade bead and silver hairpin on his head, "Hurry up and get some blood out, we will exchange it when we wake up from sleep!"

Shen Shiqing was frightened by his rage just now, she hastily tore off the white jade badge from her waist, and handed it to Zhao Surui with both hands.

Zhao Surui glanced at Zhang Zi, and suddenly smiled.

It was drizzling outside, and the sound of the rain was ticking. Shen Shiqing heard Emperor Zhaode say in her voice:
"Why is it paired with a green tassel, it's so ugly."

　Siri Zhao: Trash, more trash than I imagined!Shen Sanwaste, Shen Sanwaste!It doesn't even match a tassel!

　　Shen Shiqing: Oh.
