Red Mansion Beijingwang

Prince Beijing’s Palace, Zhuijin Tower.

As night falls, the spacious rooms are lit with orange lights, exuding a peaceful atmosphere.

Suddenly, the curtain of the door was lifted, and the "tall and strong" Siqi walked in. She was wearing a red lace vest and a pink skirt. The bulge in front of her body was swaying, as if it was about to reveal its true form.

The eyes under the thin eyebrows glanced at the girl who was sitting in front of the table and fiddling with the chessboard. She felt helpless and couldn't help but said, "Girl, you are still playing chess."

As a maid, Siqi shouldn't have interfered in her young lady's hobby, but the young lady seemed to be so absorbed in it that she almost forgot about her "business".

At this moment, Yingchun was concentrating on fiddling with the chessboard. She was wearing a pink lotus-colored skirt, looking young and sensible. Her cheeks, as rosy as a fresh litchi, looked white and rosy under the orange light.

Hearing Siqi's words, Yingchun didn't even raise her head, and responded softly, "Well, it's still early, and we're free anyway."

These girls in the boudoir have no entertainment at all. Apart from the sisters getting together to chat and play during the day, they have to kill time on their own at night. What else can they do if not play chess?

Siqi knew that she couldn't beat around the bush with her daughter, so she asked directly, "My daughter, how long has it been since the prince came to see you?"

Yingchun was startled when she heard that, and a sense of relief surged in her heart. Then she lowered her head, a hint of resentment lingering between her delicate eyebrows, and she remained silent.

Speaking of which, my brother-in-law hasn't looked for her for a long time, and I don't know what he means.

Seeing this, Siqi understood. She knew that although her daughter acted indifferent, she was actually feeling resentful in her heart. However, her daughter was soft-hearted by nature and dared not speak out any grievances, but endured them silently.

Sometimes I think that my daughter's personality is really unpleasant. No wonder she is not taken seriously. She was a nobody when she was in the Duke's Mansion, and it was almost the same when she was in the Prince's Mansion.

The only difference is that in the palace, the prince would occasionally come to comfort her.

The master and servant prosper together and suffer together. If the master is unhappy, she, as a maid, will also lose face. If the prince does not come to visit his daughter, she will also not benefit.

Thinking of this, Siqi suggested softly: "Miss, I just heard that the prince has returned home. If you have nothing to do, why don't you go find the prince."

She also knew the prince's character. He was not an unfeeling person. It was just because her girl's presence was too low and she did not attract the prince's attention that she was neglected.

The only way is to make your presence felt in front of the prince more often and attract his attention.

Yingchun's heart was moved when she heard this. Her face, as red as a pear, showed a hint of emotion between her eyebrows. She hesitated and said, "This is not a good idea."

In fact, she was very tempted by Siqi's proposal, but she and her brother-in-law were already having a secret affair. If she took the initiative to look for him, what if he was unhappy?

How could Siqi not know her young lady's concerns? She said indifferently, "Why should I be afraid? Considering the relationship between the young lady and the prince, the prince should be happy if the young lady goes."

Not to mention that the sister-in-law and brother-in-law were originally brothers-in-law, and they both had an affair and were bedfellows. With such a relationship, what would be wrong with going and seeing what was going on?

Yingchun's cheeks turned pink when she heard this, and her beautiful eyelashes trembled. After a moment of hesitation, she shook her head and said, "I'd better not go. If my brother-in-law is free, he will come to see me, and I won't cause trouble for him."

Although she was tempted, she didn't have the courage to take the initiative like Yingchun.

Siqi's heart moved, and she began to advise: "Young lady, we have lived in the palace for quite a while, and we will have to go back to the Duke's Mansion in two days. If we don't meet the prince now, it will be difficult to meet him in the future."

They were originally staying in the palace temporarily, and would have to return to the Duke Rong's Mansion sooner or later.

Yingchun was stunned when she heard this. Her beautiful eyes were filled with sadness. She whispered, "We'll talk about it later."

At this moment, Siqi felt helpless. The backyard of the prince's mansion was filled with beautiful women who were like delicate flowers. If she waited for the prince to be free, she might not be able to wait until the flowers withered.

In the harem, competing for favor is not a common thing, but my girl is so stubborn and stubborn that she dares not take any action.

She shouldn't have come to ask her own girl.

After thinking for a while, Siqi asked tentatively: "How about I go to the prince to get some information?"

Alas, the girl is not anxious, so it is she, the maid, who is anxious.
"This"

When Yingchun heard that Siqi was going to her brother-in-law, her heart tightened, her long eyelashes trembled, and a look of confusion appeared on her delicate face.

She actually wanted to let Siqi go, but she was worried that it would disturb her brother-in-law!
Siqi saw Yingchun's coy look and immediately understood. She knew that her daughter was indecisive and would most likely refuse politely. So, without waiting for Yingchun to speak, she interrupted and said, "Miss, I will go over and take a look."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Yingchun looked at Siqi's decisive figure with her beautiful eyes and was slightly stunned. When she was distracted, she disappeared. She felt a little uneasy.

Siqi is her personal maid, and if she goes, she will be representing her attitude. What if her brother-in-law is unhappy? That would be terrible.

In the water-soluble courtyard.

At this time, Shui Rong, under the service of Qingwen, changed into a loose purple robe. His figure stood tall and straight, and he exuded a noble aura that was intimidating.

Qingwen smoothed her slightly wrinkled hem, raised her white face and looked at the boy. She blinked her charming peach blossom eyes like twinkling stars and asked softly, "Where are you going later, Your Majesty?"

The night had already turned dark, and the prince still had to change his clothes, which showed which courtyard he was going to.

Shui Rong raised his eyebrows upon hearing this, stared at the charming and elegant girl in front of him, and said unhappily: "Why, I have to inform you wherever I go."

As a maid, Qingwen is getting too proud of herself for meddling in her master's affairs!
Qingwen paused, raised her eyes to look at the young man's "ill-intentioned" gaze, her heart trembled, and she quickly lowered her delicate head, pouting her pink lips and said, "No, I just asked, so that I can make arrangements."

Humph, you want to criticize me again. I will never do as Your Majesty wishes.

Shui Rong lowered his eyes and looked at Qingwen who had a "sullen" look on her face, and nodded gently. Although Qingwen, who had a stubborn temper, still had some prickly tendencies under his training, she had changed a lot.

At least, if Shui Rong asked her to go east, she would not dare to go west; if she asked her to lift her hips, she would not lift her lips.

After a pause, Shui Rong said, "Go and have a rest. I don't want you to watch over me at night."

He understood what Qingwen meant. It was nothing more than arranging the night watch and indirectly asking Shui Rong whether he wanted to stay overnight in another courtyard.

In fact, Shui Rong was planning to go to the Longcui Temple to drink new tea, and might come back at night. However, he didn't need Qingwen to wait for him. Not to mention that he could stay overnight in the Longcui Temple, he could also go to Xing Yuyan's place.

In such a huge palace, are you still worried that he has no place to sleep?

When Qingwen heard this, her bright red lips pursed up and she secretly cursed. She knew that the prince was going to stay overnight in another girl's courtyard. At this moment, a little maid outside reported: "Prince, Miss Siqi is here."

"Siqi? That's not someone close to the Second Miss."

Qingwen's heart moved, and her charming peach blossom eyes looked at Shuirong, with a strange color lingering between her charming eyebrows. She asked curiously: "My lord, why did Siqi come to see you?"

Shui Rong glanced at Qing Wen and said unhappily, "How would I know?"

He was also convinced. Siqi came to look for him, but Shui Rong had no idea why. Especially Qingwen's thoughtful peach blossom eyes, as if she was exploring something, made people feel unhappy.

Raising his hand and giving Qingwen a slap on the head, Shui Rong ordered: "Go down and have a rest. You don't need to serve here anymore. When you go back, let Siqi come in."

Qingwen covered her head and let out a soft cry. Her pair of peach blossom eyes straightened up slightly. After glaring at the young man, she retreated while twisting her charming waist.

Humph, you just know how to hit me.

After leaving the house, Qingwen saw Siqi in the yard. Her beautiful eyes under her willow-leaf eyebrows looked at Siqi. Her eyes paused in front of the beautiful woman who was about to appear, and she lowered her eyes subconsciously, and the corners of her eyes twitched involuntarily.

You've already handed over two and a half of your own, and you don't even feel tired!

Suppressing the unhappiness in her heart, Qingwen stepped forward and asked, "Why is Sister Siqi here?"

Siqi gazed at Qingwen's radiant face. Her skin was fair and delicate, and her eyes were alluring. There was an indescribable charm about her that made Siqi feel ashamed.

Not only Qingwen, but also Xiangling, or Yingluo, each of them is extremely beautiful, much better than her.

This is the person around the prince, he is indeed extraordinary.

In fact, Siqi was born in the Duke of Rong's Mansion, but Qingwen was a maid of the Lai family. It was only when she followed Yuanchun back to the mansion to get married that Nanny Lai offered her up.

Unlike the original novel where Qingwen serves Baoyu, Siqi and Qingwen do not have much interaction. They probably just live in the same mansion and are just acquaintances.

Facing the question from the maidservant beside the prince, Siqi was not arrogant and said politely: "My girl has something to ask the prince, so she asked me to come over."

Please advise, it’s not that simple!

Of course, this was just Qingwen's inner complaints. Although the second girl was the prince's sister-in-law, the previous example showed that the third girl, Bao girl, and Lin girl were not sisters-in-law. But now...
I came here for no reason, just to ask for advice, do you think she is a fool?

But Qingwen also knew that this was not something she could ask too much about. She had only asked out of curiosity. She pursed her lips and replied, "The prince is inside. Sister Siqi, please go in!"

Upon hearing this, Siqi didn't say anything. She just nodded slightly and walked towards the inner room.

Qingwen's eyes couldn't help but fall on the fullness of Siqi's body. As she moved, her eyelids trembled and twitched uncontrollably.

Even though I have seen it, it still makes me feel ashamed every time.

Under her willow-leaf brows, Qingwen's charming peach blossom eyes watched Siqi twisting her waist as she walked into the room. For some reason, she snorted softly, and her heart was secretly filled with resentment.

She didn't spit at Siqi, but rather at the prince. As someone close to the prince, she knew that the prince liked plump girls. A girl as big as Siqi's must be the prince's favorite!

How could the prince not be tempted by such a person? And the prince is a popular person in the mansion, so how could Siqi remain indifferent?

Humph, maybe these two people had some fun secretly.

Of course, Qingwen only complained in her heart. She would not make groundless remarks about something without any evidence. She pursed her lips and walked away with her waist twisted.

I don’t know what he ate to grow up. Should I ask Siqi in private?

Speaking of Siqi, she opened the curtain and walked into the room. She walked around a landscape screen and saw the prince sitting on a chair drinking tea. Her eyes were filled with joy. She stepped forward and bowed, saying, "This servant greets the prince."

Shui Rong put down the teacup, raised his eyes and looked at Si Qi in front of him, his eyes subconsciously stopped in front of the beauty, and asked: "Si Qi, why are you here, what's the matter with the second girl?"

Siqi naturally noticed Shui Rong's gaze, straightened her back slightly, and couldn't help feeling happy.

Although her appearance was not as good as Qingwen and Xiangling who were by the prince's side, she also had her own strengths, which was exactly what the prince wanted, so she was no worse than them.

Being a maid, one also has the desire to compete with others.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Siqi pursed her lips and said softly, "The young lady has been having a bit of a loss of appetite lately. Your Highness, would you like to go and see her?"

Shui Rong suddenly understood after hearing this.

The reason why Yingchun lost her appetite was because she was feeling depressed, and since Siqi had taken the initiative to tell her the reason, there was no need for Siqi to explain it.

Speaking of which, Shui Rong met Yingchun mostly when she was with her other sisters, and they didn't say a few words. He indeed did not meet Yingchun in private.

Alas, there are too many people in the back house, and it’s hard to take care of everything.

Looking up at Siqi who was looking hopeful, Shui Rong asked, "Second girl asked you to come."

Based on Shui Rong's understanding of Yingchun, he is a soft-hearted person who goes with the flow. Even if he is thinking about it, he will not let anyone inform him. Otherwise, he would not be jokingly called "not saying a word even when being poked by a needle."

Now that Siqi took the initiative to come to look for him, it was most likely not Yingchun's intention, but Siqi's "self-initiative."

Siqi's heart paused, and an unnatural look appeared on her pretty face. Her beautiful eyelashes trembled, and she lowered her eyes and whispered, "The young lady asked me not to disturb the prince, so I came here on my own."

If this was true, he knew that this was not what Yingchun meant.

After a pause, Shui Rong said, "Then I will go and see the second girl."

In fact, it is normal for Siqi to have a mercenary heart. Ask yourself, who among others does not have a mercenary heart? The key lies in their attitude. If Siqi lied to him and said it was Erya's intention, Shui Rong would not tolerate it.

Although Siqi is bold, she still has the correct perception, so he won't care.

As for Longcui Temple, it's nothing more than drinking tea. It will be the same next time. At worst, go and comfort the second girl, and then it's not too late to drink tea to relieve the greasy feeling! (End of this chapter)
