Concubine in power, prince, please respect yourself

Chapter 9 Pencil Envy

Although Xuanyuan Yi's last appearance spoiled her mood a little bit, overall it is still very good. After all, after getting rid of the green leaves, it will be much more convenient for her to do things that she can't see people in the future.

Humming a ditty, Qin Ziling slowly returned to Lingxiangju. After all, it was ancient times, and she usually had nothing to do, so her pace seemed very leisurely.

As soon as he entered the gate, Qin Ziling saw Lu He who was looking at him worriedly under the door.

A warm feeling suddenly rose in my heart. In this other world, there is at least one person who is concerned about her safety.

"Ma'am, you are finally back, the prince didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

As soon as she saw Qin Ziling appearing at the main entrance, Lu He trotted over quickly. Although she didn't know whether the prince knew about his wife's departure from the mansion, after all, his wife did leave the mansion last night.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, and the prince left his wife alone.

Fearing that Qin Ziling would be injured again, Lu He walked around Qin Ziling, and after making sure that Qin Ziling was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Luhe, don't spin anymore, don't let me be outside for a while, it will make you dizzy."

Holding Lu He's hand, Qin Ziling stopped Lu He's inspection.

"Your wife and I are so powerful, how could I hurt myself?"

"Hey, yes, madam is so amazing. The faces of the princess and the second madam have turned green. Madam has been tired all morning. Come in and rest."

Responding mischievously, Lu He urged Qin Ziling to rest quickly.

Because the prince came to Lingxiangju last night, and Qin Ziling returned safely, the rest of Lingxiangju's servants also had a touch of respect for the third lady who used to look down upon.

Here, everyone in Lingxiangju is cheerful, but the rest of the ladies are gloomy.

"Princess, the third lady is getting more and more powerful. After getting rid of Lu'er today, if the princess wants to stuff people into the third lady's room, it will become more and more difficult. The life of the third lady now, hehe, can be described as It’s like a fish in water.”

Taking a sip of tea, the eldest lady seemed to be talking unintentionally.

As for the risky thing of taking the initiative to attack, she would never do it by herself, all she wanted was to borrow a knife to kill someone.

"Sister, don't worry about this. Although she escaped this time, it doesn't mean that she will have such good luck every time."

Speaking of the latter, although Qin Zishuang tried her best to conceal her anger, she couldn't help but squeeze her little hands tightly under her wide sleeves.

Qin Ziling, just wait for me, I will never let anyone become a threat to me, today, if you want to blame, I will blame you for being too popular.

Seeing Wang Hao's angry and jealous look, the eldest lady had a sinister smile on her mouth, but it quickly disappeared.

This time, she will never be that early bird again, she just quietly watched them fight to the death.

On the other hand, the one who suffered the most was the second wife. Not to mention the loss of the chance to give birth to a son, the rest remained unscathed.

As soon as I got back to the yard, I heard the sound of ping-pong-pong coming from the room. Except for the second lady's personal maid, the rest stood outside the door in fear. What they were most afraid of was that the second lady would get angry. Every time the second lady got angry , they will inevitably be punished.

"Ah, Qin Ziling, this little slut, why, why should all the good things be hers, why should my child die, and she will not punish at all, I am not reconciled, I am not reconciled."

"Snapped."

Yuan Xianxian grabbed a vase and threw it at the door.

"Second Madam, calm down, your body is not fully recovered yet."

Seeing Yuan Xianxian's crazy appearance, Lan'er, the maid next to her, couldn't help reaching out to stop her crazy behavior.

"Slap." This time Yuan Xianxian slapped Lan'er directly.

"You bitch, what are you, do you even dare to climb on top of me today?"

Now Yuan Xianxian has been mad to the point of madness because of the loss of her child and the fact that the rest of the people have nothing to do.

"Second Madam, spare your life, it's the servant's fault, the servant will never dare again, the servant will never dare again."

Lan'er looked at the second lady who turned her anger towards her, and immediately knelt down on the ground in fright, begging for mercy.

After so many years, she has understood Yuan Xianxian's temper. As long as the servant doesn't like her, at least she will be sold to someone's teeth, and at worst she will directly die of responsibility.

Looking at Lan'er who kept kowtowing on the ground, there was no pity in Yuan Xianxian's eyes.

"Qin Ziling, Qin Zishuang, Jian Yun, all of you who harmed me and the child in my womb, I will definitely not let them go. Sooner or later, the entire palace will be mine, it will be mine, hahahaha."

The servants standing outside the door couldn't help but get goosebumps when they heard the laughter coming from the room. It seems that they will live more like walking on eggshells in the days to come.

Because of that day's incident, Qin Ziling has behaved a lot these days, and did not sneak out again.

With nothing to do, Qin Ziling began to toss around some gadgets slowly.

Looking at her master, who was sitting in front of the stone table in the yard, with black and gray hands, Lu He couldn't help but ask Qin Ziling.

"Ma'am, you've been busy for almost a stick of incense, what are you doing?"

Looking at the small bamboo selected next to him, and at his wife's black hands, Lu He asked.

"Well, didn't I tell you, I want to be a pen for writing."

Hearing Lu He's question, Qin Ziling didn't raise his head, and was busy with the matter at hand while answering Lu He.

"But... ma'am, isn't the brush a brush? Besides, the ink you grind is not this ink either."

Although Madam asked her to find Xiao Zhuzi, she asked Madam and Madam told her, but she still didn't understand what Madam was going to do.

"Stupid, just stay there, wait a moment, Mrs. Ben will open your eyes."

After finishing speaking, Qin Ziling raised her head and smiled slyly at Lu He.

"Uh-huh."

Listening to Qin Ziling's words, Lu He scratched her head, and obediently stood aside, waiting for Qin Ziling's legendary magical and strange pen.

In fact, Qin Ziling wasn't sure if she could do it well. After all, with the current conditions, she couldn't make a pencil, but she really didn't know how to use a brush, so she wanted to give it a try while she was free.

Seeing Qin Ziling who was busy all the time, Luhe couldn't interrupt, but now it's time for lunch, and the food will be cold later.

Just when Luhe couldn't help but want to interrupt Qin Ziling, she heard an exclamation over there.

"Ah! It's done! It's done! Luhe, go get me a blank piece of paper!"

Seeing Qin Ziling's excitement, Lu He also became excited, and hurried into the room to fetch a stack of rice paper.

"Madam, here you are."

Taking the rice paper from Lu He's hand, Qin Ziling sat down and let Lu He wipe her hands clean.

Holding the strange-looking thing in his hand, he began to draw on the paper. After a while, Luhe saw himself appearing on the paper, and it was so realistic, it was clearer than what was drawn with a brush How many.

"Wow, ma'am, what kind of pen is this, it's amazing."

Seeing the admiration on Lu He's face, Qin Ziling couldn't help feeling a little complacent.He picked up the pen in his hand and put it in front of Lu He.

"Let me tell you, this is called a pencil. When this side is used up, it will be replenished continuously later. Just remember to change the refills inside frequently."

"that's amazing."

Seeing Luhe's envious expression, Qin Ziling waved his hand generously.

"No, if you like it, this one will be given to you."

"Ah, ma'am, you can't do it. Madam should use such a valuable thing."

Hearing that Qin Ziling suddenly said that she would give it to herself, Lu He's heart was full of touch and surprise. She was in such a lowly position, and his wife wanted to give her such a valuable thing.

But she could never accept such a valuable thing.

"If there is anything valuable, you will accept it if you give it to you."

Holding Lu He's resigning hand, Qin Ziling was about to stuff it into Lu He's hand.

"What is so valuable, it would be nice to let this king open his eyes."

Hearing Xuanyuan Yi's voice, everyone in Lingxiangju was shocked.Turning his head to look, he saw Xuanyuan Yi's slender figure entering through the door.

"See Your Majesty."

After recovering, everyone greeted Xuanyuan Yi immediately.

Seeing Xuanyuan Yi going alone, everyone felt happy for a while, the third wife is getting more and more favored now.

The third lady is favored, and their life in this man's backyard will be much easier.

Except for Qin Ziling, everyone in Xianglingju had smiles on their brows.

On the other hand, Qin Ziling, although she was also smiling, didn't reach her eyes at all.

"Well, get up."

Xuanyuan Yi waved his hand, and everyone stood up.

"Why, seeing this king coming, the third lady doesn't seem very happy."

Looking at Qin Ziling, Xuanyuan Yi said in a low voice with a feeling of dullness.

Others are rushing to flatter him before it's too late, but this woman, on the contrary, always acts like she doesn't want to see him.

"No, no, how could I be a concubine? I'm just a little surprised. Don't blame the concubine by mistake, my lord."

Seeing Xuanyuan Yi complaining at the moment, Qin Ziling wanted to say that she didn't welcome him and hoped that he would stay away from her.But, given her ten guts now, she wouldn't dare to say that.

With a smile on his face, Qin Ziling lied without changing his expression.

"Hmph, I hope so."

When he lowered his head, Xuanyuan Yi saw the painting on the table.

The painting on paper, although the artist is not particularly good, but I don't know what kind of material is used, and even the shadows are perfectly reflected.

"Who drew this?"

Picking up the paintings on the table, Xuanyuan Yi asked curiously, why didn't he know that there were such things in Lingxiangju.

"This is painted by my concubine, what's wrong?"

"This painting, isn't it drawn with a brush?"

When he heard that it was painted by Qin Ziling, Xuanyuan Yi became even more surprised. Is this the only Qin Ziling she knew who knew nothing?
"It's not drawn with a brush, it's drawn with this, which is called a pencil, and this kind of drawing is called a sketch."

Raising the pen in his hand, Qin Ziling kindly answered Xuanyuanyi's doubts.

"Oh, this gadget is called a pencil. Why has this king never seen it before? Where did you buy it?"

Taking the pencil from Qin Ziling's hand, Xuanyuan Yi raised his eyebrows, looked at Qin Ziling curiously and asked.

"I didn't buy this, it was just made by my concubine."

Neither humble nor overbearing, Qin Ziling answered Xuanyuan Yi's words.

"You did it?"

This time, Xuanyuan Yi was even more surprised, but there was no panic on his face.

"Yeah, this is what the concubine made just now."

"Then draw another picture and show it to me."

Taking the brush from Xuanyuan Yi's hand, Qin Ziling lowered his head, and in less than a stick of incense, Xuanyuan Yi appeared vividly on the paper, because this painting was drawn with care, so it looked more realistic.

Looking at himself on the paper, Xuanyuan Yi raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction.

"This kind of pen, make another one for me."

Although Qin Ziling's posture of holding the pen seems very strange, but this pen is deeply loved by him.

"Yes, I will finish it as soon as possible today."

Lowering her head, Qin Ziling said obediently, but her stomach rumbled suddenly.

Covering her stomach, Qin Ziling looked at Xuanyuan Yi with some embarrassment, she forgot that it was already past lunch time.

Covering her mouth and smiling secretly, Lu He quickly ordered the others to serve the warm food.

Looking at Xuanyuan Yi who was still eating gracefully, although she didn't want to see him, she wouldn't make trouble with her stomach either.

However, fortunately, Xuanyuan Yi only left one sentence after eating, quickly finished the pen and sent it to him, and left in a hurry.

After eating and drinking enough, Qin Ziling lay on the beauty's couch, ready to get up and write after taking a break, but unexpectedly, she fell asleep immediately, and when Qin Ziling woke up, it was almost dark outside.

He quickly jumped to the couch and called the busy Lu He to prepare the materials.

By the time Qin Ziling was done, it was already dark, thinking of Xuanyuan Yi's urging before leaving, Qin Ziling didn't dare to delay, and when he found out that Xuanyuan Yi was in the study, he immediately sent it to Xuanyuan Yi.

Looking at the study room which was still lit, Qin Ziling was about to go in.

"Third Madam, without the prince's permission, you can't easily enter the study room, so you can go in and let me know."

Qin Ziling, who was about to go in, suddenly had an extra arm in front of her eyes, blocking her way.

After being stunned for a moment, Qin Ziling realized that the person in the room was a prince, not a person in modern life.

"Oh, alright."

"come in."

Before the little guard in front of the door went in to make an announcement, he heard a low voice coming from the room.

"Third Madam, please come in."

After getting the reply from inside, the little guard gave way.

Pushing the door open, Qin Ziling saw a particularly masculine study room. Xuanyuan Yi was sitting at the desk, writing something with a brush in his hand. The books in the whole study room were all military books and the like.

Not in the mood to admire, Qin Ziling looked at Xuanyuan Yi, ready to give Xuanyuan Yi the pen and leave.

"Sit down for a while, and wait for this king to finish this matter."

Hearing what Xuanyuan Yi said, what else could Qin Ziling say, obediently sitting on the desk beside him, waiting boredly for Xuanyuan Yi to finish.

After waiting for more than half an hour, when Qin Ziling was drowsy from waiting, he saw Xuanyuan Yi finally put down his pen.

Immediately Qin Ziling sat up straight, she still wanted to go back quickly.

"Well, is the pen ready so quickly?"

Looking at Qin Ziling at the side, Xuanyuan Yi asked in his usual magnetic voice.

"Yeah, it's done, my lord, please take a look and see if there is anything you are not satisfied with, I can go back and modify it."

Hearing Xuanyuan Yi asking her, Qin Ziling quickly walked to Xuanyuan Yi's desk and handed over the pen.

Taking the pen from Qin Ziling's hand, Xuanyuan Yi held it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

This pen is different from the one I saw at the beginning. Not only is the shape of the bamboo chosen for this pen more attractive, but also the body of the pen is dyed with brown paint, which makes it look much more exquisite.

"Ah, very good."

Looking up at Qin Ziling, Xuanyuan Yi said with a hint of happiness in his tone.Unexpectedly, for him, Qin Ziling would also work hard. It seems that he was wrong to blame her at first.

"Then, my lord, if there is nothing else, I will go back first. It is getting late now, and I am a little sleepy."

After getting the result, Qin Ziling didn't want to stay any longer, and immediately proposed to leave.

Xuanyuan Yi, who was a little happy at first, turned dark again after hearing this sentence. It turned out that he did not blame her wrongly for this woman, she was just avoiding him.

"Let's go back."

Sweeping away the previous happiness, Xuanyuan Yi replied in a deep voice.

Seeing Xuanyuan Yi whose face changed in an instant, Qin Ziling knew he was wrong, and quickly left the study.Only Xuanyuan Yi whose face was getting darker and darker was left behind.

On the other side, the other three rooms were also in the study. Not long after Qin Ziling entered the study, he got the news that the prince would let that woman enter the study.

Not to mention Qin Ziling, even the concubine once wanted to go to the study to find the prince, but was turned away.

And still in the study for so long.Not only that, I heard that at noon, the prince also stayed in Lingxiangju for a long time.

It seemed that they had to get rid of Qin Ziling as soon as possible. Now Qin Ziling was too much of a threat to them.

Back at Lingxiangju, Qin Ziling didn't know that he had provoked everyone's anger again, so he took a bath and fell asleep again.

Thinking about keeping in good health in ancient times, thinking about how they don't know where they are at this time in modern times, suddenly, Qin Ziling became a little sad, and didn't know if he would have a chance to go back.

But this sadness was only for a while, Qin Ziling fell asleep after a while.

On the second day, at dawn, Qin Ziling heard a noise outside, and before he opened his eyes, he heard the sound of Lu He hurried in.

"Ma'am, it's not good, ma'am."

"Well... what's the matter? It's early in the morning, what's the noise outside?"

Sitting up, Qin Ziling rubbed his eyes and asked.

"Ma'am, the second lady's bracelet was lost, and I searched the entire palace but couldn't find it."

Lu He said with a trace of anxiety, but only half of what she said.

"Well, then what?"

"Then...they suspected that Madam you stole it."

Lu He said angrily, their wife would not be that kind of person, why should they wrong her.

"Okay, it's okay. As I said, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Hurry up and bring me my clothes."

Qin Ziling smiled as she squeezed her green and swollen face.

Seeing her master being wronged and still laughing, Lu He also felt relieved, she believed in her wife the most.
