The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 246 Returning to the Palace
The rain fell intermittently for three days before it stopped completely. On the day when the weather cleared, more than half of the apricot blossoms in the forest in the garden had been knocked down by the rain.

Sure enough, as Wei Changan reminded, Yinzhen didn't come to Yuanmingyuan these days.

Yan Hua drank three glasses of wine on the first day and became unconscious. When she woke up the next day, she only felt dizzy.The first thing she did when she woke up was to look around, looking for something, and after a while she asked Lingxi with some disappointment: "Did he come here last night?"

Lingxi shook her head, and she became annoyed. She stared at the two maidservants beside her and said, "I drank privately, didn't you report this to Wei Chang'an? Didn't Wei Chang'an report it to Fourth Master?"

The two servant girls looked at each other, and shook their heads blankly: "Slaves... I don't know if I should report this matter."

Yan Hua raised her forehead, and solemnly educated them: "I have to report it, I will still drink privately today, and you should also report it. By the way, I have been disobedient these days, and I won't write a small note. , you are all told."

The two maids looked at Lingxi anxiously, and asked timidly: "Ge Ge...Is Ge Ge's wine still awake?"

Lingxi also couldn't understand what Yanhua was thinking, so he hurried forward to touch Yanhua's forehead, fearing that her brain would be burnt out: "Didn't Gegemo have a fever yesterday? Why are you talking nonsense so early in the morning?" gone?"

Yanhua rolled her eyes, thinking that Huaying understood her, so she leaned close to her ear and explained in a low voice: "Didn't Wei Changan say that the master will not come soon? I will do some ridiculous things to see if he will." Take the time to come here. I always feel that something happened, he won't just leave me here, will he?"

Only then did Lingxi understand what she was thinking, and looked at her with some compassion: "That Ge Ge shouldn't be disregarding her own body." After finishing speaking, she turned her head and glared at the two maidservants fiercely, "Ge Ge Have you written down what you just said? When Wei Changan comes, you have to report it to him carefully!"

The two servant girls trembled and looked at each other, both puzzled, feeling that something was wrong with the master and servant in front of them.How could someone force them to report something bad, as if they were afraid that Fourth Master would not know about it.But seeing Yanhua and Lingxi's ferocious appearance, they didn't dare to ask any more questions, so they just nodded their heads and promised to report the truth to Wei Chang'an, so Yanhua and Lingxi stopped chasing them and continued to chatter.

On the second day, Yanhua drank three and a half cups and passed out again.

On the third day, she wanted to drink again, but Lingxi refused to give her the drink: "Gege! Do you still want to recover soon! If you continue to drink like this, you will become an alcoholic!"

Yanhua sneered: "Wei Chang'an reminded me in advance that he won't come, so I also missed him earlier. If you don't let me drink, I will miss him so much that my heart aches. You have the heart to look at me and it hurts." Can't sleep?"

Lingxi was rendered speechless by what she said, after all he couldn't bear to see her lonely appearance, so he poured her two glasses of wine, and after two glasses, he refused to give her any more wine.

On the fourth day, the rain cleared and the air was filled with the fresh fragrance of grass. Yanhua seemed to have gotten used to the days when she didn't see Yinzhen, and when she woke up in the morning, she didn't ask Lingxi if he had been here.After serving her breakfast, Lingxi pushed her to see the apricot blossom.Most of the apricot blossoms in that grove were knocked down by the heavy rain, and there were scattered apricot blossoms on the ground, which was very sad and beautiful.

"Lingxi, let's go pick apricot blossoms today, brew apricot blossom wine to drink, and make apricot blossom cakes to eat." Yanhua looked at it for a while, feeling agitated, and asked Lingxi to help her get up and walk.

Her leg still hurt, and she suddenly regretted not letting Yinzhen see her wound that day.At that time Yinzhen wanted to take a look at the strip of cloth, but he was afraid that she would be in pain, so he didn't move.But now she was thinking, if he had seen it then, she wondered if he would have left her alone.

When Lingxi heard that she was going to pick flowers again, Lingxi pouted helplessly: "Ge Ge has a flower addiction. The osmanthus, plum, peach, and chrysanthemum pears in Prince Yong's Mansion have been eaten by Ge Ge. Right now, the apricots in this forest Most of the flowers are gone, and Gege still wants to pick them to make pastries. I smell the fragrance on Gege, so it must be because I always eat these fragrant flowers."

After hearing what she said, Yanhua frowned: "I smell good? What kind of fragrance?" She remembered that when La Aunt Su Ma was alive, she had smelled musk on her clothes. Could it be that there was still a smell of musk on her clothes? calculating?
Lingxi quickly relieved: "Gagemo was just thinking, there is no other fragrance, just the fragrance of peach blossoms. Did Gege forget? Gege has seen me dry peach petals before and put them in a box to smoke clothes."

Yanhua breathed a sigh of relief, and glared at her reproachfully: "Then you were talking nonsense just now. Pick some apricot flowers, I want to eat the apricot flower cake you made yourself."

"But the servant doesn't know how to make apricot cake?" Lingxi blinked, quite embarrassed.

Yan Hua squinted at the maid who was following behind her, and cleared her throat: "Stupid, don't I keep a cookbook in my room? It was specially written by Yingxiu before marrying Wei Chang'an, do you remember? Then There is a recipe for apricot flower cake on it, you just go back home and bring that cookbook to make it."

Lingxi was stunned for a while, recalling what Yanhua said, and then guessed the meaning of her words, and said with a smile: "Oh! Gege has a good memory, but this servant has completely forgotten that cookbook! Just like Gege I don’t have many clothes to change, and the slaves just go back to bring some clothes and books.”

The corners of Yanhua's mouth twitched, feeling that Lingxi was a little dead-headed, with her current state, she couldn't care less about reading.

But she didn't say anything, seeing Lingxi shaking Liu Yemei triumphantly at herself, she had to smile helplessly: "You also bring the scriptures that Fujin let me read, although I don't need to copy any more, but I suddenly Want to see."

Lingxi nodded, it was a night full of dreams, and Dang even asked the two maids who had been following her to help pick the apricot flowers, while she hurriedly arranged to go back to Prince Yong's mansion.No one said she couldn't go back now, so she had to seize the opportunity.

Unexpectedly, when she was leaving the garden, she was still stopped by the guards guarding the garden. After asking her whereabouts, some guards nodded: "I will send someone back to get these things, Miss Lingxi should go back to Gege Wait by your side."

Lingxi became annoyed when he heard this, and with his hips crossed, he cursed: "What do you mean! Wei Changan never said that he would put me under house arrest, so why don't you let me go back! Did I do something wrong? Or Gege? What’s wrong? There are some things that you can rummage through boxes and cabinets at will? The two girls Shaoyao and Bihe are also new to Wanfu Pavilion, and they don’t know where to put things..."

She scolded all the possible situations one by one, and once she released her momentum, the guard who stopped her hesitated.

"What are you dawdling about? Let me prepare the car! Ge Ge hasn't been able to eat or sleep well these few days, and now he finally has something he wants to eat. If you dawdle any longer, if Ge Ge is starving, you are the only ones to ask!" Lingxi saw They hesitated, and immediately raised their voices and howled a few more words.

The guard guarding the garden pondered for a while, and agreed to let her go back to pick up the things, but after all, they sent two more maids to go back with her.Along the way, Lingxi saw the two strange maidservants standing by her side without saying a word, and she just felt angry—she felt like a prisoner, being watched wherever she went.

"What happened to the palace?" After a long journey, Lingxi simply asked the two of them directly.

The two servant girls looked at each other, and lowered their eyes in unison to avoid looking at her: "Miss Lingxi, everything is fine in the palace, nothing happened."

Lingxi snorted coldly, stared at the top of their heads, his scorching eyes almost burned a hole in their brains: "I'm not stupid, you are so weird, only if nothing happened."

One of the maids looked up timidly, and seeing Lingxi staring at her, she hurriedly lowered her head again: "I'm new here not long ago, I don't know where I made Sister Lingxi angry, so I dare not speak much... I heard that Mr. It is to let us report the inappropriate things she did to Wei Wei, I think...Ge Ge is a bit weird..."

"You're weird! You're weird too! You're all weird and it's not your turn to be weird!" Lingxi rolled her eyes angrily and didn't look at them again.She wanted to intentionally murder them so that they would not tell themselves, but looking at the current situation, they also don't know anything.

"When I go back to the mansion later, I will go to Hibiscus to get some incense powder to smoke in the garden. It has rained for a few days, and the garden is very wet, and the incense powder is also good for getting rid of dampness. You guys What do you mean?" Lingxi glanced at them, saw the two of them nodded hesitantly, and then continued, "I still have to go to Liangchen to get a few books. Gege has nothing to do all day, so it's good to read more. Yes, my master often asks Gegeduo to study, do you have any objections?"

The two maids didn't know why Lingxi always aimed at the two of them, and kept being cautious.They were just ordered to follow Lingxi back home to pick up things, don't let Lingxi stay too long, don't let Lingxi listen to other people's gossip, didn't say not to let Lingxi find Lingxi and Mujin, so...the two of them nodded hesitantly: " It's not good for Miss Lingxi to keep Gege waiting for too long, so go back to the garden earlier after returning home to pick up the things."

Lingxi ignored them, and went straight back to Wanfu Pavilion as soon as she returned to the mansion. She didn't meet Wei Changan along the way, and she felt relieved.

Shaoyao and Bihe guarded Wanfu Pavilion wholeheartedly, and they were a little puzzled when they saw Lingxi go back: "Why didn't Gege come back together?"

Lingxi ignored them, and only directed the two little maids who came back with her to say: "You two, help to wrap the few clothes in the box...I'm looking for the recipe."

As she spoke, she secretly pulled Shaoyao aside, and asked in a low voice: "What happened in the house recently?" After a pause, she hurriedly added, "If you are sincere to Gege, don't hide it from me! You If you are not loyal to Gege, sooner or later you will be kicked out of Wanfu Pavilion!"
