court ladies begging for joy

Chapter 67

In the dead of night, Wen Xiaowan woke up feeling a little thirsty, and stretched out her hand to habitually push Nie Jinyan, who was sleeping next to him and leaning on the bed, "Water, I want to drink water, Nie Jinyan, I'm thirsty!"

After Wen Xiaowan and Nie Jinyan lived together, except when Nie Jinyan was injured and lived in the bed, they usually lived outside the bed.

Wen Xiaowan has a lot of sleep problems, if she greedily eats something before going to bed, she will definitely wake up in the middle of the night, looking for a pail or water to drink.

Wen Xiaowan is very aware of her stinking faults accumulated for two lifetimes, and she can't change it no matter what. When she first shared the bed with Nie Jinyan, she insisted on sleeping outside.

Nie Jinyan said that this person feels light, let alone sleeping in the bed, crawling over him, even sleeping next to the bed, he can hear you when you get up very lightly, and he will get up before you.

Wen Xiaowan felt that Nie Jinyan might never have slept through the night, maybe even when he slept, he would open his eyes and close his eyes, let alone sleep soundly, maybe he wasn't even half-familiar.

In this way, when Wen Xiaowan wakes up in her sleep to ask for water at night, Nie Jinyan automatically takes care of it for her.

Every time Wen Xiaowan cried out for thirst, he got up and poured water for Wen Xiaowan, and fed the warm water to Wen Xiaowan.

When Wen Xiaowan was half-drowsy and half-awake, she also liked to hold Nie Jinyan's wrist and pour a bowl of water into her hand.

It is said that a man's body is hot, but when Nie Jinyan's skin first touched it, it was a little cool.After touching it for a while, it will gradually heat up.

Wen Xiaowan just likes to huddle into his arms, huddled and huddled, and she will often make some movements that shouldn't be done.

Wen Xiaowan just followed her usual habit tonight, asking for water with her eyes closed, but she didn't get a response for a while, and her outstretched hand was empty, Wen Xiaowan opened her eyes unhappy.

"Nie Jinyan," Wen Xiaowan opened her eyes, and found that the place where Nie Jinyan should have been lying next to her was empty. She was startled, and all sleepiness disappeared.

Wen Xiaowan grabbed the thick robe on the hanger beside the bed and draped it over her body, dragging the soft-soled shoes on the bed, and was about to rush out when she found Nie Jinyan's robe hanging on the hanger.

He didn't even wear any clothes, so he probably didn't leave, maybe he went out of court, right?That shouldn't be so long, touch the place where Nie Jinyan lay down again, it's already cold.

Although Wen Xiaowan was full of suspicion, she was not as anxious as when she first found out that Nie Jinyan was not there.She picked up her shoes and walked to the door of the inner hall, only to find that the door of the outer hall was open.

With Nie Jinyan in the room, unless it is himself, who can open the door without disturbing Nie Jinyan, and it has not been closed, but the inner hall door is closed, it should not go far, maybe is in the yard.

What are you doing in the yard in the middle of the night?Is it the moon appreciation?Moon appreciation in winter?Wen Xiaowan scratched her head, feeling that this was a bit unbelievable.

Wen Xiaowan retreated from the door of the inner hall to the bed, took off the robe of Nie Jinyan that was on the hanger, and went out of the inner hall and outside.

Wen Xiaowan walked to the door of the outer hall, and saw Nie Jinyan standing in the courtyard.

Nie Jinyan was wearing a plain white jacket with no pattern or decoration, and his thick black hair was scattered all over his back. The cold wind of winter nights sometimes blows, driving the corners of his clothes and a few strands of hair.

In the dark sky, there are no stars, let alone the moon, and it is too cloudy to see anything.Only the wind lanterns on the pillars of the porch emitted dim yellow light, reflecting on Nie Jinyan's body, casting dim and fragmentary shadows, which formed two shapes out of proportion to the spacious and neat courtyard.

Although Wen Xiaowan didn't know what happened to Nie Jinyan, she stayed up most of the night and ran here to blow the cold wind, but she still walked over slowly with her clothes on, and spread her thick outer robe over Nie Jinyan's body.

It's a pity that her size is a little different from Nie Jinyan's. She put clothes on Nie Jinyan's body, tiptoed and just reached Nie Jinyan's shoulders.

Nie Jinyan was in a daze, feeling the little movement behind him, turned his head quickly, grabbed the clothes that were about to slide down, and at the same time, bumped into Wen Xiaowan's worried eyes.

"What's the matter?" Wen Xiaowan held Nie Jinyan's icy cold hand distressedly, "Don't stand here in the cold wind in the middle of the night if you are upset, you will get sick, your legs are fine."

Wen Xiaowan remembered what the doctor said, that Nie Jinyan's broken leg seemed to be healed, but maintenance in the future is very important, especially not to be exposed to cold and damp, it will cause serious problems, and it will be a sin if it is cloudy and rainy.

Wen Xiaowan pulled Nie Jinyan to go back.She wants to kick Nie Jinyan back into the bed, warm her bed well, and make such a fuss. In such a cold night, go outside to drink the northwest wind, self-torture?
Unexpectedly, not only did she not pull Nie Jinyan, but Nie Jinyan hugged her back into his arms, wrapping the two of them together with the thick robe she just put on.

Wen Xiaowan's drowsiness before was frightened when she found out that Nie Jinyan was not by his side, and when the cold wind blew, she was completely awake, and suddenly she felt something was wrong.

"What the hell happened to you?"

Nie Jinyan said that this person has worries and troubles, and he never speaks out. He belongs to that kind of introverted personality, but he would never do such self-abuse. Such a warm fragrance and warm jade.

"It's been 18 years since my family was in trouble at this time today," Nie Jinyan raised his head high, his neck showing a graceful upward arc, like a tight bow, and a pair of long and narrow eyes became clearer, like two Curving the first quarter moon, "My parents died on the [-]th anniversary."

Wen Xiaowan's heart trembled, and she involuntarily raised her head along with Nie Jinyan.

There was nothing in the night sky, just a dark patch of darkness, billowing thick clouds, blown by the wind from time to time, as if a heavy snow was brewing.

After being so silent for a quarter of an hour, Wen Xiaowan slowly recovered in Nie Jinyan's arms. She could not accompany Nie Jinyan to be pessimistic.

In Nie Jinyan's arms, she slowly turned around, put her cheek against Nie Jinyan's chest, put her arms around Nie Jinyan's waist, "Don't be afraid, I will accompany you."

Accompany you in this book until the end.If you can have a white head, you will never lose.

"Well, I am alone every year, this year...you are with me,"

Nie Jinyan's voice was a little trembling when he said that, his slender and straight fingers forked into Wen Xiaowan's cloud-like hair, he really liked Wen Xiaowan, only when he hugged Wen Xiaowan in his arms, he felt that he was not a walking dead, he was also There is life.

"Wan'er, come back from the palace tomorrow, I will take you to meet Jinxing."

Nie Jinyan suddenly mentioned his younger brother Nie Jinxing, and Wen Xiaowan couldn't help but pop up the popular science Mo Feiyang gave her about Nie Jinyan's family affairs in Wen Xiaowan's mind.

Nie Jinyan's younger brother is called Nie Jinxing, oh no, the name was changed to Emerald in Xiaoguan Pavilion, and the famous actor of Fuyao Pavilion, Mei Tiao is especially good at singing.

Thinking of Mei Tiao, Wen Xiaowan's brain was short-circuited. It was also to clear away the pessimistic atmosphere between her and Nie Jinyan. She smiled and said, "That goblin Mo Feiyang said your brother can sing Mei Tiao?"

Nie Jinyan's expression froze for a moment, but he still nodded, "When I found him, he was in his teens and had learned a bit."

Finally, just in time for Jinxing to be sold out, Nie Jinyan stopped him in time. This was the only thing that Nie Jinyan rejoiced about.

If he did it sincerely, he would be insulted. What face would he have to meet Quan Xia's parents? What was the sacrifice he made in the first place?

"Can you really sing? Mei tune is so difficult to learn, your brother is really smart"

Not long after Wen Xiaowan came to this novel, she had heard about the special type of "Mei Diao", which is a bit like a combination of Kunqu opera and Yue opera in her previous life.

Wen Xiaowan loves this style of music very much, and feels that it is more shocking than those heavy metal rock and roll, especially after she and Nie Jinyan have this relationship, she is blown by the spring breeze of love, and Wen Xiaowan feels that Mei Tiao It's sweeter than any music.

Nie Jinyan didn't expect Wen Xiaowan to answer "really smart" after "Mei Tiao", looked at her in amazement, and said after a while, "Yes... Jinxing is quite smart..."

Wen Xiaowan didn't want to study what was in Wen Xiaowan's little head.

In this feudal time and space, actors and monkeys are basically in the same gear.We all know they are human beings, but no one regards them as human beings.In a powerful and rich family, an actor is considered a thing.

Jinxing's current status is that of a young lady in the hall, but in fact she is worse than an actor.

Therefore, when Wen Xiaowan asked him if Jinxing could sing plum tunes, there was a moment of bitterness in his heart, he was afraid that Wen Xiaowan would look down on Jinxing.

Even after he finds Jinxing, he protects and raises Jinxing well, but after all, his identity is there and cannot be erased.The case of the Nie family is never resolved, and Jin Xing will always be the servant of the servant house.

But when Wen Xiaowan said the following words, he felt that he really thought too much. He and Wen Xiaowan have been together for so long, and he should have adapted to Wen Xiaowan's way of thinking that does not follow common sense. Why...

He clasped the hand holding Wen Xiaowan's small head, tightened again, and pressed Wen Xiaowan's cheek closer to his chest. If he could, he would squeeze Wen Xiaowan's head into his chest cavity.

"I can play the flute and flute, and I'm also very smart."

Wen Xiaowan pursed her lips and smiled when she heard Nie Jinyan's rare flattering tone, she still remembered that Nie Jinyan once played the piccolo for her in the Bodhisattva Hall of the palace.

Wen Xiaowan decided to follow the good advice, "Mm, um, you are the smartest, no one is smarter than you."

With the word 'most', Nie Jinyan is at least satisfied.

Early the next morning, at the thought of going to the palace to disgust the empress dowager, Wen Xiaowan, who hadn't slept half the night, was full of combat power, and dragged Nie Jinyan out of the bed, "Hurry up, get up, comb my hair, help me put on makeup, hurry up!" ...."

Nie Jinyan only met at dawn, and squinted for a while, when Wen Xiaowan forcibly pulled the quilt, and there was still a trace of sleepiness on his face.

Usually he wakes up earlier than Wen Xiaowan. Wen Xiaowan is someone who can definitely sleep until the sun rises. She sleeps on the bed, like a hibernating tortoise, who won't wake up.

Today actually..., what a motivation.

He raised his head and looked out the window, then looked at the watch in the corner of the room, and said, "It's still early..."

Before she finished speaking, Wen Xiaowan kissed him on the cheek, "How early, we have to reload, how can we do it if we don't tidy it up?"

Yesterday evening, in order to dress up more glamorously and blind the old woman's eyes, Wen Xiaowan decided to find a professional to help her as a staff officer, so she went to find Prince Jing.

As soon as Prince Jing heard that Wen Xiaowan was going to shake his head in front of the Queen Mother, this father, who was not afraid of big things, immediately pulled Wen Xiaowan straight to his clothes store, bluntly saying that he could pick any outfit.If you don't like these things, he asked Xiu Niang to make it for Wen Xiaowan overnight.

It was only at this time that Wen Xiaowan felt that Prince Jing really looked like a father.

After two hours of hard work, under the guidance of Prince Jing, Wen Xiaowan not only found out the matching outfit, Prince Jing even prepared the twelve golden hairpins for Wen Xiaowan.

"You are my daughter, the status of the princess, and you are worthy of your status if you bring twelve, don't let others say you are petty,"

Prince Jing really looked down on Wen Xiaowan's Taoist hair that was casually pulled on her head, and that casual bun with a pendant tail, no hairpin or decoration, not even a flower. Lord, the filial piety of the dead in the families of high-ranking officials and nobles is not as simple as her dress.

The number of hairpins that Jin'an women wear on their heads is clearly stipulated in the Jin'an Law, and it is not that anyone can bring as many as they want.

Generally, girls from small households are treated with one long hairpin, while queens and queen mothers are treated with eighteen long hairpins, which decrease in descending order, until it is the turn of the princess to have exactly twelve long hairpins.

Wen Xiaowan heard about this when she was training in the palace before, but she never thought that one day she would still be treated like this.

"And this one, this big South Pearl was given to you by your elder brother, you can take it with you tomorrow too, don't tell those people in the palace to look down on Prince Jing's mansion."

Prince Jing took out a red velvet box, opened the lid, and inside was a big pearl the size of a ping-pong ball.

As soon as the bead lit up, the walls of the room shone brightly. Wen Xiaowan wanted to blind others, but this time she completely experienced the feeling of being blinded.

Wen Xiaowan really felt that carrying the twelve golden hairpins was already like a pheasant with wings, if she brought this south bead up, she would be a freshly unearthed upstart.

Wen Xiaowan deeply felt that Prince Jing's vision was fine on clothes, but as long as she crossed the field a little bit and turned to women's headgear, the taste was really...too heavy.

Wen Xiaowan felt that she couldn't bear it, but she couldn't deny Prince Jing's kindness, so although she took all of them back, she thought that when she really used them, she should use them with discretion.

Anyway, she has Nie Jinyan. Nie Jinyan has stayed in the palace for nearly 20 years, and her vision in this regard must be much better than that of Prince Jing.

Nie Jinyan was stripped of the quilt by Wen Xiaowan and could no longer lie down, while Xiao Fuzi had already brought a bunch of little eunuchs and maids waiting at the door.

This is the rule, without Nie Jinyan's order, they would not dare to enter Nie Jinyan's room, and they also prepared according to Nie Jinyan's usual routine. Unexpectedly, when they came, there was no movement in the room. He didn't wake up, so he just waited outside.

Wen Xiaowan was in the room, and she made a lot of noise when she lifted Nie Jinyan's quilt, and people outside could hear it even if they were not deaf.

Xiao Fuzi raised his sleeves, wiped off the sweat from his forehead, glanced sternly at the little eunuchs and maids who were waiting behind him, and said coldly: "Today...no...not just today, everything you hear As you can see, if anyone dares to leak half a word, the Department of Punishment can only get in and out."

Their company can tolerate how the princess Wen Wan messes around, but their company's image still requires them to do their best to maintain it.These things must not leak out a little fishy.If someone else hears about it and let their company know about it, no one has to live.

Since Xiao Fuzi could take Nie Jinyan to serve him in the courtyard, these little maids and eunuchs don't understand anything.

After Xiao Fuzi finished giving orders, they all nodded, but they didn't even dare to make a sound.

When Xiao Fuzi brought these people in, Nie Jinyan and Wen Xiaowan had already put on their middle clothes.

Obviously no fewer than six people came in, but Wen Xiaowan and Nie Jinyan were the only ones in the room, it seemed like there was no one else in the room.

"I definitely don't have the twelve golden hairpins. After I put them all in, it looks like a peacock spreading its tail. It's so ugly."

Wen Xiaowan pointed to the row of shiny golden hairpins inlaid with various emeralds and agates in the jewelry box.

"I don't want this pearl either. Putting it on the head is no different from putting a duck egg on it. It's like a moving lantern. When we don't have oil lamps, it can be used to put it on..."

Wen Xiaowan, a guy who knows nothing, was full of disgusting words, pointing to a box of jewelry to find fault, and finally put his hopeful eyes on Nie Jinyan.

Nie Jinyan knew it would be like this. From the first time he shrunk Wen Xiaowan's hair, Wen Xiaowan has been relying on him. Of course, he also likes this kind of dependence very much.

Wen Xiaowan's hands, if you say they are extremely dexterous, they are extremely dexterous, they can open no matter how complicated a lock is, if you say they are stupid, they are really stupid.

Not to mention the palace, it is a small household, there is no girl like her who can only do one hairstyle.No wonder when I saw her in the palace before, she always wore a bun.

At first Nie Jinyan thought that this was the unified rule of Yongxiao Palace, made by Concubine Jia.

Later, when he was lucky enough to see Jin Lan, another concubine who was dressed in fancy clothes and who was called sister and sister with Wen Xiaowan, and she was close to the court lady, Jin Lan, he finally understood that his Wan'er was stupid and lazy.

Nie Jinyan's skill of combing hair was learned from the Imperial Household Department.

He was young when he entered the palace, and the personal master he followed was the hair-combing eunuch who had previously served the late emperor's favorite concubine.

The hair-combing eunuch likes to show off, but at that time, the favorite concubine had already fallen. Once he became the emperor and a courtier, he, the hair-combing eunuch, naturally also fell. He was transferred back to the House of Internal Affairs to do odd jobs. It is the reward you get when combing your hair in front of your favorite concubine.

Sometimes after drinking two glasses of wine, he started humming, and practiced with Nie Jinyan. At first, he took Nie Jinyan's hair and combed it into various shapes, but he was not allowed to take it apart.Later, he forced Nie Jinyan to comb it for him.

When Nie Jinyan and Wen Xiaowan were talking about this, Wen Xiaowan's only sigh was that fortunately the old eunuch's habit after drinking was combing his hair instead of beating people.

However, from Nie Jinyan's mouth, Wen Xiaowan was happiest when he heard Nie Jinyan tell her about Nie Jinyan's childhood, especially what happened after entering the palace. Hear all of his most private.
