Yijuan cloud

Chapter 37 Intrigue
Fan Li was not polite at all and took it with his hand.

He spread it out in the palm of his hand, looked at it, and then gently weighed it. There was no expression on his face, and he asked me in a low voice: "You really gave it to me?"

From the look of him, it looked like I would be reluctant to part with him.No wonder, although the golden lock is small, it is solid. My mother hired a famous craftsman to carve it. Even someone from a family like Fan Li must praise it as a good thing.

I stretched out my hand and said with a smile: "Can it still be fake? Do you want it or not? Don't give it back to me."

He closed his fist, put it away, glanced at me, and said calmly: "Let's go."

There was a lamp hanging under the eaves, and he stood next to it, looking at the streets and the sky in the distance with his hands folded.

In a daze, it was as if time had gone back to the time when I first came here. His burly figure cast a shadow on the corridor, but it scared me at the time. No matter how I looked at it now, I felt that the shadow was warm and friendly.

When I was going down the stairs, I couldn't help but turn around and wave to him: "Brother Fan, I'm leaving!"

Seeing him turn around, I waved again before following Kazami down the stairs.

After walking a few steps, I heard his deep voice coming from the stairs: "Goodbye."

I quickly turned my head and saw Fan Li standing at the entrance of the stairs. I could only vaguely see his outline. He probably couldn't see me clearly either, but I still smiled at him and said, "Goodbye."

Feng Jian held a ram's horn lantern to help me light the way.

When the two of us were about to reach the first floor, he suddenly stopped, came up and stood on a step with me, and whispered: "Our young master really likes you, girl. I have followed him since I was a child. What does he think in his heart that I can still do it?" You can see it."

I was very surprised. Fan Li treated me very well and was willing to marry me as his concubine. But he just thought that I was suitable to be a concubine, and this move could help me get rid of my humble status. If he said he liked me, why not? He said he was honest.

However, my face quickly became hot and I spat at Feng Jian: "What nonsense are you talking about? I don't know where you learned these nonsense. I'm just a slave. I won't harm your young master's reputation!"

Speaking of the reputation of being "implicated", my heart suddenly sank. Since I have been a slave, how can I still be the master of the major events in my life?Let alone a pair for life.

I felt so depressed and unbearable that I didn't want to talk to Feng Jian anymore, so I turned around and left.

Feng Jian hurriedly caught up with me and said as he walked: "Miss Lin, don't be angry. I just won't mention it again in the future. I just want you to remember how good our young master is..."

"You still say that!" I stopped suddenly and glared at him.

At this time, the curtain on the first floor opened and Wen Jin came out. He saw me from a distance and called my name.

I told Wen Jin about Fan Li's temperament and preferences in detail.

I said, "Although General Fan is a tall man, he has a sweet tooth, and he has to cook two cups of tea."

Wen Jin smiled and said, "Don't worry. If I don't understand something, you can just ask others."

She looked calm and generous.

As expected of those who followed the Xu family, they had experienced the world.

I couldn't help but secretly sigh, why should I bother with these little things? With Wen Jin here, he can only do them better than me.

When Wen Jin sent me out, he deliberately slowed down his pace. Seeing that Zhu Qing and Feng Jian were far ahead, he whispered: "Speaking of which, General Fan should return to the camp in a few days, so you can You returned home, but it happened that Zhong Ming fell and injured his arm, so the prince asked you to go back. This time, you will serve in front of the prince as soon as you go back. Although it is a good job, you must be careful in everything, and you must know that you do not provoke others. , others will also provoke you."

I thought for a while and said, "Even in front of the prince, if you don't have any thoughts, who can pick out the thorns?"

Wen Jin sighed: "You don't know, it was Zhu Qing who came to discuss with me and Xiang Gui and asked who else could read, sort out books, and serve pen and ink. I said it was a pity that you went to General Fan, you are the most capable Apart from you, I can't find anyone suitable to do these things and do them well. Unexpectedly, Zhuqing went back to the prince, and the prince asked me to change you back. For this matter, Xianggui You still blame me for talking too much, so I remind you of this, but you are always upright and don’t worry about the shadow, you just do it." When I heard her say this, I felt annoyed.

Before I could go back, I was already thinking about the troubles ahead.

It's not that I'm afraid of being tricked. I've dealt with women like Lin Se and Aunt Xue who have 1 tricks in the past, not to mention a few maids. I'm just too lazy to scheming with others.

When I returned to the palace, it was already Xu time, and a slanting moon hung sparsely on the treetops.

I went straight back to my old place.

Linghua and two other maids were enjoying the shade and playing in the yard. When they saw me coming over, they clamored for me to go over and tell them about the situation at General Fan's place. I couldn't bear the teasing and had to go over.

As I was talking about how Fan Li defeated the Tatar soldiers, suddenly the servant girl guarding the door came over and said, "Miss Duo'er, come quickly. I'm waiting for you to wait in the study."

Yingjiao sat cross-legged on the mat and said, "Hey, it's been a while since I got a son. Hasn't the prince rested yet?"

The servant girl smiled and said: "You have little hooves and you have never been in front of the prince. How do you know when he will rest?"

Then he said respectfully to me: "Miss Duo'er, the boy is waiting for you outside."

Yingjiao snorted coldly: "You've just gotten there and you've become a bitch. There's a girl on the left, and another girl, let's go, let's go quickly! I can't stand such a slave."

The servant woman said: "You sound like you have become the master. I still have to send many girls out, so I don't have time to mess around with you!"

Yingjiao stood up with a roar, her almond-shaped eyes glaring angrily.

Linghua hurriedly grabbed her and whispered to me: "Duo'er, go quickly, don't miss anything."

I responded and said to the servant girl: "Aunt Liu still calls me Duo'er, but there is no need to add anything more. We are generally slaves."

Aunt Liu kept saying "yes, yes, yes" with a sarcastic look on her face.

There was a boy standing at the door. When he saw me coming out, he hurriedly came forward with a lantern and said urgently: "Girl, please hurry up, our prince is waiting to write a letter."

I followed him hastily.

Prince Yi's study was some distance away. Because I was walking in a hurry, I was a little out of breath when I got outside the study.

Although I tried my best to breathe calmly, my breath was still a little unsteady when I entered.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Xianggui standing under the curtain at the outer door. She looked at me and frowned and whispered: "How can I be so flustered? How can I serve the prince with such a demeanor?"

The inner door curtain opened, and Zhu Qing came out and said, "Is Miss Duo'er here? Come in quickly."

I hurriedly responded and followed Zhuqing into the study room.

When this mansion was built, everything was extremely spacious. The study was surrounded by bookshelves from bottom to top, filled with books, a tea table, and a large desk.

The deep room was silent except for two tripods burning agarwood on the floor, and Prince Yi was leaning on the couch reading a book.

Zhu Qing said softly: "Your Majesty, Miss Duo'er is here."
