Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 22
Coming out of Zimuxuan, Shangguan Wanchun walked towards the small courtyard where she lived, relying on the memories left in her body.

Shangguan Gao Yang planned to send someone to take her back, but she refused.

Walking on the ground paved with cobblestones, the warm sunlight shone on her body, and the surroundings were surrounded by fresh air with the smell of green grass. The whole person seemed to be bathed in nature, not only her soul was sublimated, but also Even the body felt so buoyant, it was wonderful.

She remembered walking through a small garden, which was her residence.If she remembers correctly, the name of the courtyard where she lives seems to correspond to her name, but she can't remember exactly what it is called.

What made her feel strange was that she didn't meet a single person along the way, and even the slaves didn't know where they went.

In the kitchen of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Did you hear the screams of the fourth aunt from the firewood room?" He Li asked in a low voice while peeling the garlic cloves in his hand.

"Of course I heard it, it rang through most of the prime minister's mansion, who wouldn't hear it!" He Sen said and put down the dishes in his hand.

"What a crime!" He Li shook his head and sighed.

"Hmph, God has eyes. Some retribution is not not reported, but the time is not up. When the time comes, it will definitely be reported. Thinking about how she bullied Fourth Miss so severely before, we all see it now." I can't go down anymore, it's all right now, the retribution is coming!" Li Ma who was meeting with her interrupted.

"Yeah, I remember one time, Miss Si was infected with a cold and needed to take some supplements to take care of her body, but she actually took away the bird's nest for Miss Si, and said that Miss Si was ill and couldn't eat it at all. It’s better to give these supplements to those who need them.” Another person quickly echoed.

"When you said that, I remembered it. There is such a thing. The poor lady is a good-tempered person. She didn't say anything after she knew it. She just cooked a pot of tonic for Miss Si and sent it over. Slowly getting better, alas." Li Ma said and sighed.

"Don't say it, be careful of being heard by others, if it reaches the ears of the fourth aunt, you will suffer." Another person warned.

"Tch, if you don't tell me, I won't tell you, and they won't tell you, who would know?" Li Ma rolled her eyes and said, her eyes were full of disbelief, and she whispered in her mouth: "Is it because of the relationship with the housekeeper?" Alright, it’s even set up!”

"Cough, cough!" The housekeeper and uncle walked into the kitchen, slightly clenched their fists to their mouths, and coughed twice.

At this time, the chatting people hurriedly shut up and concentrated on their work, while He Li raised his head again and said respectfully, "Uncle He, you are here."

"Yes." The housekeeper and uncle nodded in response.

He glanced at everyone, and then said, "Everyone stop for a moment."

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he continued: "Seven days later, the master will hold a banquet and invite relatives and friends over. Although it is just a family banquet, I still hope that everyone will put up their spirits and prepare carefully!"

"Yes." Everyone nodded in agreement.

Then Uncle He glanced at the ingredients in the kitchen and said, "If the ingredients are not enough, go buy them now, and don't use them when the time comes but don't have them."

"Uncle He, don't worry, we will definitely do a good job." He Li said with a smile.

"Well, good." Saying that, Uncle He turned and walked out of the kitchen.

Walking out of the small garden, and walking less than 50 meters forward, is the small courtyard where Shangguan Wanchun lives.

She stopped, raised her head, looked at the plaque on the door, and said softly: "Chunyaju."

What an elegant name, pure and elegant, just in line with her temperament.It's a pity that the original her is no longer there, Shangguan Wanchun sighed inwardly.

Looking in from the outside, the plants and trees here have not changed, they are still the same, and they are very clean and clear, which shows that they are often cleaned.

Before she could bury herself in the gate, she saw a lake-green figure throwing herself into her arms, crying, "Miss, miss, you are finally back, woo~~ I thought I would never see you again." Is it your turn?"

Shangguan Wanchun was stunned on the spot, thinking: What's the matter?
Seeing that Shangguan Wanchun didn't respond for a long time, the maid raised her head and looked at her with tears in her eyes, but after seeing Shangguan Wanchun's cold and indifferent attitude, she felt a little puzzled in her heart, and also felt that she felt the pain from Shangguan Wanchun's body. The alienation that emanates.And she also knew what happened in the front hall in the morning, after all, news runs the fastest in the prime minister's mansion.So while applauding, she gradually developed a feeling of awe and fear towards Shangguan Wanchun.

She swallowed, and couldn't help thinking: Has Miss really changed?Even though she thought so, she still had the courage to say with a heavy nasal voice: "Miss?"

"You, are you Yancui?"

"Yes, yes, the maidservant is Yan Cui." The servant girl Yan Cui nodded her head as if pounding garlic.

"Go in." After Shangguan Wanchun threw out these two words, she passed her and walked inside.

Apparently, the maid Yan Cui didn't expect her to say that, and she still had an unfamiliar attitude, which made her a little bit uncomfortable for a while, and she didn't know how to react, so she stood there in a daze without moving.

Shangguan Wanchun narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking as she walked: Yan Cui, Shangguan Wanchun's personal maid, entered the mansion at the age of five, and has been with her since the day she entered the mansion. Judging from Wanchun's temperament, it is not an exaggeration to say that the two are like sisters, but that is also the previous Shangguan Wanchun, not her Tang Chunya. Before she knows someone well, she will not regard her as one of her own. , no one is an exception.

"Miss, wait for me." Seeing Shangguan Wanchun walking into the lobby, Yan Cui hurriedly shouted.

inner room.

"Miss, the bath water has been boiled, do you want to take a bath now?" Yan Cui carefully said while observing her expression.

"Okay." Shangguan Wanchun said calmly.

After a while, Yan Cui put away the bath water and said respectfully: "Miss, you can take a bath."

Shangguan Wanchun smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Yan Cui, and also, you don't have to be so reserved."

"Ah? Oh." After being stunned, Yan Cui nodded.

Shangguan Wanchun was about to take a bath, but seeing Yan Cui lowered her head, showing no intention of leaving, she remembered the rules here, the servants have to wait for the master to take a bath.But as a modern person, she is not used to and does not like being served by others, especially when taking a bath, she frowned and said, "Yan Cui, you go out first."

"But, miss."

"No need, I'll do it myself." Shangguan Wanchun interrupted her.

"Yes."

After hearing the sound of the door closing, Shangguan Wanchun slowly untied her clothes and walked into the barrel.

Unexpectedly, the healing medicine given by the silver-masked man was so effective that it even faded the scars.Although I don't care about these scars, it still looks more comfortable without them.Shangguan Wanchun couldn't help thinking as she stroked the tender red skin on her body.

She remembered that in her previous life, she was injured big and small, at least there were more than 100 places, and she didn't even have a piece of complete skin on her body. She couldn't think of her in this life, God gave back all the beauty that belongs to women She, it flattered her a little.

"Miss, have you finished washing?" the maid Yan Cui knocked on the door and said.

"It's almost there, what's the matter?" Shangguan Wanchun asked.

She didn't fall asleep this time, knowing that the result of falling asleep in the barrel would be more sore neck and shoulders, she didn't want to try again.

"Miss, the servant brought you a change of clothes."

Only then did Shangguan Wanchun realize that there was nothing else in the room except the clothes hung on the screen.

"Come in, please put your clothes on the screen."

"Yes." Saying that, the maid Yan Cui opened the door and walked in.

She took off the clothes hanging on the screen one by one, and put new clothes on it again.

But when she looked up and saw the faint scar on Shangguan Wanchun's shoulder, she couldn't help covering her mouth, trying hard not to cry out.

Shangguan Wanchun naturally noticed it, turned around suspiciously, and saw Yan Cui, who was supposed to be standing outside the screen, stood behind her at some point, and was still weeping suppressedly.

Shangguan Wanchun suddenly shouted displeased: "Who asked you to come here?"

And Yan Cui walked over as if she had never heard of it, plopped, knelt down on the ground, and cried, "Miss, I understand that I know that you don't want my servant to help you bathe because I don't want my servant to see the scars on your body and feel sad." Miss, it’s all bad for slaves, if the slaves don’t go back to get you the cloak, you won’t be injured so badly, it’s all bad for slaves!” Yan Cui sobbed softly.

Shangguan Wanchun's face softened a little, but her tone was still cold and she said: "I'm fine, you go out first and bring a bowl of hot soup to the bedroom."

"Yes, I'm going now, servant girl." Thinking that the young lady hadn't eaten anything since morning, Yan Cui's heart ached very much, she saw her hurriedly get up from the ground, and walked quickly to the door.

Shanguan Wanchun didn't want to stay in the barrel anymore, after watching the maid Yan Cui leave, she picked up the clothes on the screen and put them on.

When Yan Cui walked into the inner room, Shangguan Wanchun was already fully dressed, sitting by the bed with a book in her hand.

"Miss, here comes the soup."

Hearing the sound, Shangguan Wanchun raised her head and took the hot soup in her hand.

Shangguan Wanchun scooped up a spoonful, then looked up at Yan Cui, and asked, "You said just now that I was hurt because you came back to fetch me the cloak?"

"Yeah." Yan Cui said, white mist appeared in her eyes again.

"When I fell off the cliff, I hit my head. I can't remember some things clearly. Please tell me about the situation that day." Shangguan Wanchun put the soup on the bedside cabinet.

"Okay." Yan Cui explained the situation at that time in detail.

Shangguan Wanchun pondered for a while after hearing this, and asked, "Is what you said true?"

The sky gradually darkened, and the outside became much colder, but the room was as warm as spring, and the crackling of the charcoal fire in the copper basin echoed harmoniously with people's conversations.

"Mother, don't worry, I'm fine now, so I don't need to ask the doctor to come and see me." Shangguan Wanchun said with a smile.

"Let the doctor come over and take a look. By the way, take good care of your body. You can see that you have lost weight several times, your cheekbones have protruded, and your chin has become sharper." Tang Lanhui patted her hand and said softly Said, her eyes were full of worry, thinking that her own body is just like this, it won't get better, she must not let her daughter's body collapse, stubbornly must ask a doctor to come over to show Shangguan Wanchun Look.

"Little sister, just listen to your mother." Shangguan Gao Yang said at the right time.

Seeing that Shangguan Wanchun really couldn't evade it, she could only nod her head in agreement.

Seeing this, Tang Lanhui smiled, and hugged Shangguan Wanchun affectionately.

Shangguan Wanchun once again felt the warmth brought by her mother. The feeling could not be described in words, it was as refreshing as spring water passing across the skin, and she was intoxicated.

Brother, how are you doing over there?Don't worry, I'm doing well. Not only is there a mother who loves me here, but also a big brother like you who cares about me. I'm very satisfied.
