Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 90 Three Clamps
"Wanxi, I'm so scared."

Wanxi led Yuqin into the back room where she lived, and after closing the door, the two of them had some personal conversations, and this was the first sentence Yuqin said.

Wanxi lowered her head when she heard the words: "I'm afraid it's time for my sister to go to bed."

Yuqin clasped Wanxi's hand: "I haven't seen the emperor up close, but he said he was going to bed... I don't know what kind of person he is, and I don't know how to face him then."

Wanxi didn't want to tell what the melancholy floating in her heart like water mist was, she just lowered her head and patted Yuqin's hand: "Sister, don't be afraid, the emperor is... a very gentle person."

Yuqin slightly raised her eyebrows: "How do you know?"

Wanxi knew that she had slipped her tongue, and hurriedly said: "I am always a person in the womb of the empress. Who doesn't know that the emperor loves the empress most? What I have heard and seen is the way the emperor treats the empress. He's a gentle man."

Yuqin hid a sigh: "The imperial concubine also said the same thing. It's just... I'm still afraid."

Yuqin grabbed Wanxi's hand: "In this palace, I don't know who to discuss with when I encounter problems, only you, Wanxi. You can help me give me advice, how should I face the emperor then?"

Wanxi's heart is turning a thousand times to ask this question, and she doesn't know where to start.

She looked carefully at Yuqin's face, then smiled hard: "My sister is so beautiful, the emperor must like it."

Yuqin was so anxious that she patted the back of Wanxi's hand: "It's about this time, I don't want to hear you say these things!"

Wanxi's eyes turned to Yuqin's ear: "...my sister pierces her ears and eyes first."

Yuqin was stunned: "Ear eyes? Wanxi, what are you talking about?"

Wanxi ignores the feeling in her heart, and at this time only concentrates on planning for Yuqin: "My sister is a Han from the south of the Yangtze River, and she only has one ear and one eye; but the daughters of the Banner family must have one ear and three pincers, so each side must have one ear and three pincers. There must be three ears and eyes. Since my sister has entered the palace, she must first follow the customs of the flag, so as not to fall into the shoes of others."

Yuqin took a deep breath, looked carefully at Wanxi's ears and eyes, and took a careful breath: "Does it hurt?"

Wanxi giggled, took a sewing needle out of the sewing basket, and rummaged through it, and found a soybean from nowhere: "It doesn't hurt! When I was young, the girls from the Banner family used this soybean to drive out the needle." The skin and flesh on the thin earlobe, when the flesh is removed and only two layers of skin remain, the needle will burn red and go through it, and the pain will no longer be felt.”

Yuqin still covered her ears, her face was already pale with shock: "I feel scared when I hear it!"

Wanxi put away her laughter, put down her sewing needle, and looked seriously: "Then sister will always be herself, don't be coerced by others. My sister is in the palace, and being a Han woman can be my sister's weakness, but it's also a shame. It is my sister's barrier. In my opinion, since the emperor chose my sister to enter the palace, he valued her identity, and there is no need for my sister to deliberately erase her identity as a Han woman for the sake of others' eyes."

Yuqin bit her lip: "How?"

Wanxi turned her wonderful eyes: "At first glance that day, I took a closer look at my sister's signature and saw your father's name. Lu Shilong, it reminds me of another person, but I don't know if I'm right or not."

Yuqin took a light breath: "Speak."

Wanxi blinked and smiled: "Lu Shiyi, a great Confucian in the south of the Yangtze River. I guess, my sister's father should be a brother of the same generation as this great Confucian in the south of the Yangtze River, and my sister should be the niece of the great Confucian in the same family."

Yuqin was slightly surprised: "You guessed it."

Wanxi clapped her hands: "The Lu family in Jiangnan is a family of Confucianism, and Lu Shiyi should not take the imperial examination after entering the Qing Dynasty. But the court has always wanted to recruit, no wonder the emperor made an exception and chose the daughter of the Lu family in Jiangnan!"

Wanxi embraced Yuqin, winking coquettishly: "Since the emperor has such a heart for the Lu family, my sister can just be the daughter of the Lu family. Then my sister will always be unique in the emperor's heart."

Yuqin's heart brightened, and she couldn't help hugging Wanxi: "You are really my good sister!"

Yuqin tilted her head and couldn't help but look at Wanxi's ears and eyes: "Then these ears and eyes..."

Wanxi smiled narrowly: "I still have to prick!"
