Chapter 270

On the edge of the well pavilion in the northwest corner of the apse of Yonghe Palace, the big palace maid who had just attracted the attention of Erfu and Concubine De was standing with her head bowed in front of her peers dressed as a grandmother, biting her handkerchief and crying, and her little appearance was no different from that of the angry little daughter-in-law.

"I didn't let you go over to see, it wasn't for your own good, why didn't you understand the good words!

I haven't said a word about you yet, but you are wronged, crying and crying, if it weren't for the love that you and I did together in my brother, I wouldn't be too lazy to care about your affairs!!"

The woman dressed as a grandmother on the opposite side sighed helplessly, although she was still nagging, but her tone had eased a lot.

The palace maid sobbed a few more times, then pinched the handkerchief and dipped the corners of her eyes, squeezed out a pitiful wry smile, pulled the cuffs of the woman opposite, and whispered: "Sister Han, I have always loved to cry, and you don't know, you are not allowed to be angry with me!"

Besides, let's talk about some gossip here, I've been walking around in my brother's office since I was a child, thinking that my relationship with him was still close before, so I was cheeky to ask for a chance!

Sister Han doesn't know the situation in my family, my sister-in-law took all those months of silver on weekdays, saying that she was helping me save it, and now I want them to spit it out, how can it be so easy!"

After speaking, the big palace maid smiled writhingly, as if she wanted to fight for another point or two of sympathy.

Mama Han looked at the boxy corner of the sky, and really found a feeling of being locked in a cage as her mother said, thinking about the bad things in her family. looked at Linglong, who was flattering with red eyes in front of him, but he had more sympathy, and finally nodded. Agreed to Linglong's request.

She is the same age as Linglong, but she died early, since she entered the palace at the age of eight to serve, all the way from the small palace maid to the position of the big palace maid, although she saved enough money to go out of the palace to honor the steward, but her old son and mother had already died a fine light, and the remaining little brothers in the family. I don't have the slightest impression of her.

Thinking that it would be an old girl to go out, she also gave him the money she had accumulated over the years when she met with her little brother at the gate of the palace the year before last. The one who combed her hair became a grandmother, although she couldn't be regarded as a face in front of her master, but she also had two faces in the palace, and her life was not sad.

Let's talk about her hand combing her hair. That's what I learned from the old woman. It is also useful.

It's just that this delicate thing is much more difficult to do.

is also from a clothed background, and the same family is in difficulty, but there is a man set by her old son and mother waiting for her to go out outside the house.

I heard that he is still a Xiucai from a good family, although his family is not wealthy, and he can barely make a living in some small business, but he can be regarded as an arm that can be relied on.

When it was time to leave the palace, Linglong thought about asking her sister-in-law to return the money she had saved for her to take care of the affairs, but she didn't want her two-faced sister-in-law to turn her face. not only scolded her for being faceless, but also left without leaving her a big son.

This opportunity to leave the palace is not often seen. If you miss this year, you will have to rely on the grace of your master.

But Linglong is bent on thinking about the lover outside the palace, and she spends her days in the dim sum room doing some no-knead and stuffing work, not to mention that she is appreciated by the master, and the people she knows in the palace are limited, so this can be regarded as Linglong's only hope.

There is no money to do it, even if she is old, she can't get out, so Linglong begged in front of her, hoping to take advantage of the banquet in the Jiaotai Palace, and bump into a prince she inadvertently met when she was a child, thinking that with the love with that person when she was a child, let that person say hello to the Internal Affairs Office, so that she can leave the palace gate smoothly, and she will not nest between the red walls and yellow tiles for the rest of her life.

"Don't cry, since you know that you want to rely on your childhood love to get out, then hurry up and pick up the dropouts, so as not to make the nobles angry when they see your face, I will also take advantage of Aunt Yuxiu to come back, and quickly stuff you into the entourage who went to the Jiaotai Hall with Niangniang!" Mama Han looked at Linglong, who was staring at her with tears, took out a box of good official powder from her cuffs, stuffed it into Linglong's hand, and whispered.

The things were sent out, and Mama Han couldn't help grinning in distress.

This is still a good thing for the mother, before she looked at her good service, specially rewarded, she wanted to spend her life safely and smoothly, and she has never been like other palace people, since she got it in her hand, she stuffed it into the cage containing the clothes as incense, and this time it is a perfect exquisite.

After speaking, Mama Han didn't wait for Linglong to reply, and hurriedly walked forward.

Linglong pinched the small porcelain box of cloisonné, and a smile appeared on her face, she only told Sister Han part of the truth.

The talented lover in her family, although he had a marriage contract with her, and even passed a small decision, but he went to Jiangnan with his family a few years ago, and even asked to marry the second girl of a county magistrate in Jiangnan and the former master's family.

If it hadn't happened, she wouldn't have thought about meeting the man.

Others don't know the details of her and that person, but she was not young at that time, and she understood that person's thoughts about her, and now she was going to have a better life than that thin lover, so she was going to try her luck, and at worst, she could go out of the palace to be a nurturing grandmother, presumably that person would not let her starve to death outside.

As for the money that her sister-in-law saved for her, it was only a fraction of a dime.

Since the day she entered the palace, her wife told her that she could not trust anyone, but she could not let people see that she was a treacherous person in her bones.

With such a realization, how could she hand over her hard-earned money to an outsider like your sister-in-law.

As far as her sister-in-law's greedy temperament is concerned, she saw through it as early as the first time she met. The reason why she has been leaving some sporadic to her sister-in-law over the years is just to let her sister-in-law make a big fuss in front of everyone, so that she can leave some private money for cover.

A few years ago, I heard that the lover stayed away from the capital and married another girl. She was even planning how to give that thin lover a hard slap.

It's just that she is just a little girl who has entered the palace since she was a child, with no knowledge and no brains, even if she has one hundred and eighty taels of silver in her hand. That's just barely enough to make her old.

If she hadn't bumped into the man's eyes looking at Brother Grande not long ago, she would have been a little afraid to see that person and put her brain on his head.

......

As the night darkened, a bright full moon emerged from the top of the palace wall, and she had already cleaned up.

A standard palace maid's robe issued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs has been modified by her skillful hands, and the corners are embroidered with small flowers. The deliberately constricted waistline sets off her mature and delicate figure.

A pair of silver hairpins with beads that the man had worn when they first met, adorned on one side of the small two heads. Hopefully, the man would recognize her at a glance.

He stuffed the broken purse he had prepared in his arms, and contained the silver coral stone earrings he had given, and when the time was right, he threw it to the man, and then pretended to be in a hurry to find it. Let the man think that she values him.

Apply a light layer of rouge to the face. The tip of the black braid was tied with a pink hairrope, and in front of the mottled bronze mirror, she squeezed out an innocent smile, looked at her bright eyes like a crescent moon, and finally walked out of the small room satisfied.

She has always pretended to be ugly, but now she shows her truest and most beautiful side.

Those palace people who were also accompanying her looked at her carefully dressed face, and they were all stunned for a while.

"Everyone is here, hurry up and go in and wait for the masters to wash and change their clothes." Otherwise, it will be too late at this hour!" Mama Han looked at Linglong's grateful smile, and she didn't want too many people to notice her differently. He cleared his throat, interrupted the whispering speculation, and said in a deep voice.

Before entering the main hall, Linglong carefully shrank in a corner of the shadow, for fear of attracting attention and being guessed by others about her sinister intentions.

When a few seventeen or eighteen-year-old palace maids passed by, they looked at her head-scratching style, only when she was an ugly duckling who whimsically wanted to climb the dragon bed, she spat disdainfully, and didn't even bother to throw a contemptuous look at her, and followed the original team of Yonghe Palace into the palace door, and walked quickly to a few Fujin who were resting in the side hall.

"Is that person's information accurate?" asked Concubine De lazily raising her hand to get dressed, and asked without a beginning or an end.

Yuxiu hurriedly stepped forward and replied in a low voice: "Yes, it seems that she wants to ask a certain master to give her a face to send a message to the Internal Affairs Office, don't take the opportunity for her to leave the palace and ask for a red envelope!"

"If it's just for that little thing, you can go through Mama Han's mouth to ask for the palace, why do you have to make trouble with those gentlemen!" Concubine De glanced back at Linglong's hidden position with disdain, and said coldly.

has been immersed in the palace for most of her life, Concubine De is not the seemingly clever fool of Mama Han, but thinking that she is just a thing that wants to be a person in the master's room, she is too lazy to ask.

"What the master said is that it is better for the slave to send her away now!" Yuxiu looked at Concubine De's eyes and asked guessingly.

Concubine De shook her head slightly, looked at the bright palace lights like a small sun outside the window, and murmured as if she was distracted: "I have been fighting with those women for most of my life, although I like a peaceful life at this time, but I also like to watch a lively show, why bother with the good show carefully arranged by others!"

"Slave understands!" Yu Xiu nodded approvingly.

That Linglong has been planning for a few years, if it is really in the hands of his own mother, I am afraid that not only will he not commit suicide in despair, but he will definitely hate his mother and cause such unnecessary trouble, which is really unnecessary.

Concubine De looked at the hair bun that seemed graceful, but did not press her neck, and walked out with a step.

All the Fujin and side Fujin have also been prepared, seeing Concubine De Niangniang coming out, they did not delay the hour, smiled and leaned over to salute, following the footsteps of Concubine De, leading the palace people to Jiaotai Palace.

As usual, this Shangyuan Festival is also to enjoy the lanterns, but the palace has always been not rich in grass and trees, and the capital is now cold, so this palace banquet is still placed in the Jiaotai Palace, but the occasion is hung under the corridor with various palace lanterns, in fact, it is still a song and dance-based eating and chatting.

Erfu followed behind the Thirteenth Fujin and the Fourteenth Fujin without squinting, secretly snapped his fingers, pondered for a while, took a long breath of relief, and secretly said that after eating this meal, he could go home and rest!

"Fang Fujin, please follow the slave maid!" A crisp sound like a blue bead falling on a jade plate suddenly appeared, causing Delph to look back exaggeratedly, looking at the familiar face in front of him, and couldn't help but stop.

"Master!" Yu Jie hurriedly stepped forward, next to the gap between Xiao Qi and Hongxuan, and called softly.

Erfu suddenly came back to her senses when she heard this, and showed a shy smile a little embarrassed, nodded slightly, and walked forward with the delicate steps.

Not far behind him, the Thirteenth Fujin, who had just sat down, saw this scene, and said softly to the Fourteenth Fujin with some doubts: "Little sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

"Maybe I was shocked by the palace maid's dress!

Didn't you see the appearance of the palace maid, although the rules of the gestures are not bad, but the painting is demonic, it is not a serious thing at first glance, it is estimated that he is planning to take advantage of the palace banquet to scratch his head and seduce that person!" Fourteen Fujin glanced at the palace maid's back with disdain, lowered his voice, and said with a face full of disdain.

After speaking, the Thirteen Fujin, who seemed to be worried about his sincerity, raised his chin at the empty gilded throne above.

"What a fool, who in this palace doesn't know the feelings for the deceased Empress Yuan, don't say that this kind of day is a palace person who scratches his head and gestures, even those concubines who are in full bloom can't see that!"

is still waiting for the palace concubines to lead their daughters-in-law to arrive, and the old man Kangxi, who is dressed in regular clothes, led a group of sons into the Jiaotai Palace, and didn't even look at the concubines and daughters-in-law who greeted them with a salute, just looked at a corner of the hall and became distracted, and it took a while to sit down and call up.

Some of the old people in the palace had already seen the problem of the angle of the old man Kangxi's eyes, and they lowered their heads one after another, for fear of being seen by the jealous look in their eyes.

At the banquet, as usual, singing and dancing, the princes from time to time a few funny words, always able to attract the laughter of everyone in the hall, the one at the top was silent, just poured bitter wine into his stomach.

Noticing this scene, everyone also restrained the smiles on their faces, had a good family feast, and ate as if they were participating in someone's white banquet.

After more than an hour of coldness, the head of the boss frantically poured wine into his stomach, waved his hand and threw away the sentence "his body is tired", and left everyone in the Jiaotai Hall in the distance, and led Wei Zhu to the direction of Kunning Palace alone.

Everyone saw that the old man was gone, and the mood of many palace concubines was not high, and they all used the excuse that it was not early, and led people out of the palace and went home. (To be continued......)
