==Chapter 22==
Nanny Mu looked at her, Concubine Hu, with a clear understanding of everything on her face.
Probably because he was born in the palace, this kind of insight is hidden under the skin, and it is even invisible to people. It will only feel unfathomable.
Concubine Hu just felt this way, so she was particularly on pins and needles.
"Your Highness agreed?"
These words made Concubine Hu feel a little embarrassed, but she also knew in her heart that she had to talk through Aunt Mu in order to achieve her goal.
She went to Chaohui Hall twice before, but she didn't even get in. All this made her panic, and she even wondered if Princess Jin knew something, otherwise why would she stuff Cuizhu back so clearly.
She cannot fall out of favor, absolutely not.
Once she fell out of favor, it would be enough for the princess and concubine Feng to tear her alive.
Thinking of this, Concubine Hu clenched her hands under her sleeves and started crying. She cried so sadly that she didn't even care about her dignity, with a sense of sadness and uneasiness.
She did not choose to cover up for the sake of face, but chose a few, saying that she accidentally offended King Jin that night, but she did not say the specific details.
This matter was not a secret to Grandma Mu. Although she was not in the small building at the time, she soon found out.
Sometimes even Aunt Mu couldn't understand what Prince Jin was thinking, but her lack of understanding did not stop her from planning to do it. Even if Concubine Hu is a bit stupid and often offends His Highness, since His Highness is willing to go and has gone to great lengths to do so much for her, Aunt Mu should give her a leg up in the back.
Her eyes glanced at Concubine Hu's belly almost imperceptibly, and she said in a slow voice: "Now that I've thought about it, let's take her and stay for one night. I'll ask Yuyan to help clean up, and I'll take Nurse Su there. ."
Concubine Hu immediately burst into tears and smiled: "Thank you, mama."
*
In the east room, Yao Niang was giving the little princess a massage, so she naturally heard the noise outside.
This was the first time she heard Concubine Hu crying. To be honest, Yao Niang was surprised. This kind of surprise was no less than seeing a monster, because Concubine Hu had always been arrogant in her mind. Even though she had received most of the favor in her previous life, she had never shown weakness.
Yu Yan walked in from the outside and whispered to Yao Niang about going to the Liuchun Pavilion tonight.
As a nanny, Yao Niang can only listen to what she can say.
They say they need to clean up, but in fact there is nothing to clean up. After giving birth to the little princess, Concubine Hu deliberately cleared out the west end room of the Liuchun Pavilion, built a separate room for the little princess, and prepared all the necessary preparations, just to keep her daughter by her side. .
After that, the little princess moved to the small courtyard, and a new set of things was prepared, but the things over there were not moved, so all she had to do on this trip was to carry the little princess over.
However, Yuyan still helped Yao Niang pack some diapers for the little princess, as well as the gadgets she usually plays with. After packing up, Yao Niang hugged the little princess and followed Concubine Hu to the Liuchun Pavilion.
The West Room is kept very clean and spotless, and the little princess's things are also neatly placed. The rosewood cabinet in the corner is filled with various toys of the little princess. Some of the toys on the market are available here, and some that are not on the market are also available here.
Some of them were prepared by Concubine Hu personally, some were sent by the princess, and of course some were collected from various places by the King of Jin.
Seriously speaking, King Jin loved this daughter very much.
The maids and ladies in Liuchun Pavilion were also very attentive to Yao Niang. They talked about Su Nai Niang and smiled all over their faces. In her previous life, Yao Niang had always suffered cold looks and ridicule when she was at the Liuchun Pavilion. She had never seen them like this, so she was naturally surprised.
But I am surprised but not surprised. After all, there are too many differences between this life and the previous life.
Yao Niang didn't see Cuizhu, but she knew why Cuizhu didn't show up. Cuizhu was punished to stand in the sun for more than an hour. He suffered from heat stroke and he still can't get out of bed.
Everyone in Xiaoquan Courtyard knew about this matter and had discussed it before. Naturally, Yao Niang also knew about it.
The little princess has passed her hundredth day. This month, the bones of Milk Baby have gradually hardened, and she has begun to feel unwilling to be lonely. When an adult holds her in her arms, she always wants to look around. She knows how rare it is to give her something, and a rattle can keep her interested for a long time.
Yao Niang took a rattle and stuffed it into her hand. These days, she often exercised the little princess’s grasping ability, so the little princess could hold it very steadily. She could also shake it in her hand, making a "dong dong dong" sound. sound.
The little princess was not on guard. She was so frightened that she couldn't help but squint her eyes. Then she looked at the gadget in her hand and immediately started laughing again. She waved it even more excitedly and let out a series of squeaking, squeaking laughter that was unique to Milkman.
The little princess smiled, and everyone in the Liuchun Pavilion laughed. Concubine Hu naturally also laughed. The Liuchun Pavilion was full of laughter, sweeping away the previous low pressure.
Concubine Hu did not stay long and hurriedly led the people out.
Yao Niang thought that she was probably going to Chaohui Hall.
Will King Jin come?
The King of Jin will naturally come.
Inexplicably, Yao Niang has this understanding.
*
In the inner study of Chaohui Hall, King Jin is reading a batch of newspapers and secret letters.
Fu Cheng walked in lightly, making almost no sound.
King Jin raised his head to look at him, and Fucheng said: "Your Highness, Concubine Hu is here and is waiting outside the door."
The King of Jin frowned.
Fucheng half-bent and continued: "The concubine went to Xiao Kua Yuan, and with the consent of the nanny, she took the little princess to Liuchun Pavilion, saying she wanted to stay overnight."
So needless to say, King Jin also understood what Concubine Hu meant.
"The concubine invites you to have dinner at Liuchun Pavilion in the evening."
The room fell into silence, and King Jin still looked at the secret letter in his hand.
After a long while, he said without raising his eyebrows: "Let her go back, I will go."
"Yes."
After hearing King Jin's words, Concubine Hu left with a smile.
Fucheng looked at her back and sighed inexplicably.
Call her stupid, she is indeed a little stupid, call her smart, she is indeed a little clever. At least Concubine Hu could figure out one or two of His Highness's thoughts and knew exactly what she was relying on.
This man, whether he lives well or poorly in this world, depends on that little bit of support.
Fu Cheng dusted his sleeves and looked at the distant sky with half-squinted eyes.
*
At dusk, the Liuchun Pavilion is brightly lit.
The maids and ladies were all well-dressed, with very festive smiles on their faces.
In the room, Concubine Hu had held the little princess in her arms for a long time. Today she was dressed particularly plainly, wearing a water-red summer silk dress. Her makeup was light and all the jewelry was removed. She only wore a bun on her hair. A simple hosta was inserted.
No one has ever seen Concubine Hu like this before. She is a little less bright and striking, and a little more demure and gentle.
The little princess in her arms is wearing a tie-style top and bottom pants made of red cotton. The style is simple, the texture is soft, and she wears a bellyband of the same color inside, which makes her look even more white and cute.
This dress was made by Yao Niang in her spare time.
It's hot, and it's not suitable for little babies to wear clothes with too many embroidered patterns. That kind of clothes looks gorgeous, but it is not suitable for babies in this age group to wear because it can damage the skin. Yao Niang first tried to make a set for the little princess to wear. It was good-looking and breathable, and would not scratch the delicate skin. Even though it was a hot day, the little princess didn't get any heat rash, let alone catch a cold, so Grandma Mu simply let her do whatever she wanted.
Concubine Hu was smiling all over her face and repeatedly praised Yao Niang for her good breasts. Naturally, the maids and women beside her also joined in the fun.
Yao Niang feels like she is in a dream. The people who spoke harshly to her in her previous life have completely changed their faces in this life. It really gives people the illusion that things are right and people are different.
A little girl hurried in and said that His Highness had arrived.
Concubine Hu immediately picked up the little princess and led a large group of people to welcome her out.
In the courtyard, glazed palace lanterns were lit under the eaves of the verandah, illuminating everything and even the moon and stars in the sky were dimmed.
The King of Jin was wearing an azure-colored brocade robe embroidered with dark patterns, and he was walking towards here with one hand behind his back. Fucheng followed behind.
Under the light, he looked heroic and handsome, like a **** stepping down from a throne.
When Yao Niang saw Concubine Hu lost her mind for a few breaths, she immediately showed a look of joy and stepped forward to greet her.
"Your Highness."
Prince Jin nodded, his eyes swept over her face and focused on the little princess.
Seeing this, Concubine Hu deliberately handed the little princess forward and said softly to King Jin: "The little princess is very happy today, and she also knows that the father is coming."
The little princess was indeed very happy today. She took a nap in the afternoon and when she woke up, so many people were playing with her. She is still excited. Her little body was still a little weak. If she wanted to straighten up, she had to ask for help from an adult. Concubine Hu lifted her up in the air, and she lost support. In addition, Concubine Hu's movements were too abrupt, causing her upper body to suddenly move forward. Fall aside.
It shocked everyone.
It's not that I'm afraid of falling, but that I'm afraid of hurting the little princess's waist.
Yao Niang, who was beside Concubine Hu, reacted the fastest. She subconsciously stepped forward and put her hand on the little princess from the side.
Concubine Hu was still frightened and looked pale.
She didn't expect this at all, and it was also because she had no experience in raising children. Just to please King Jin, she was a little careless for a while and forgot to hold the little princess's back.
Prince Jin’s face immediately turned cold.
Fortunately, the little princess didn't cry. This month's baby didn't know what it meant to be afraid. She thought the adults were playing with her, so she held Yao Niang's hand and made a babbling sound.
Such a cute little princess naturally made Prince Jin soften his expression. Concubine Hu also breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to know that she was not doing this. She put the little princess into Yaoniang's arms and followed King Jin into the house.
Entering the second room, Concubine Hu first served King Jin and sat down on the Arhat bed, and then sat down opposite him.
All the rest of the crowd retreated, but Yao Niang was able to stay and wait on the little princess thanks to her blessing.
Yao Niang was on pins and needles, feeling that the current situation was extremely strange.
The man she served in her previous life and her rival in her previous life were sitting together, and she was holding their child in her arms.
Inexplicably, Yao Niang felt an extremely uncomfortable feeling in her heart.
But she didn't have time to think about this, because when Concubine Hu was talking to Prince Jin, the main topic was focused on the little princess, and as the person holding the little princess, she had to be careful.
For example, Concubine Hu said that the little princess had gained weight recently, she would have to follow the other person's eyes and show the little princess who had gained weight to King Jin. For example, Concubine Hu said that the little princess was naughty now, so she would have to tell some interesting things about the little princess.
Probably due to the influence of the experience in her previous life, although Yao Niang spoke, the expression on her face was extremely reluctant. The little princess was probably tired of playing and was unwilling to cooperate. She turned back and rubbed her face on Yao Niang's chest more than once.
The little princess's behavior made Yaoniang extremely embarrassed, because everyone's eyes were focused on the little princess, and the little princess naturally saw her in this way.
It doesn’t matter if it’s someone else, but the key is that one of the eyes belongs to Prince Jin.
Yao Niang's face turned red to a degree visible to the naked eye, her neck hung low, and she wanted to bury her face in the little princess's arms, trying to cover her ears.
Little Milkman knows nothing about all this.
Because she couldn't get milk, the little princess was obviously a little anxious. She struggled in Yao Niang's arms, kept rubbing her face on Yao Niang's chest, and even cried softly.
The tense nerves, coupled with the suggestive movements of the little princess and her cries, made Yao Niang react reflexively. In just a few breaths, the fabric on her chest was all wet. Thoroughly.
It all sounds slow, but actually it only happens in an instant.
You can naturally feel the abnormality in your body. Yao Niang's mind went blank and she was so embarrassed that she was dying of embarrassment. But she also knew that she couldn't continue like this, so she picked up the little princess and held it against her chest. She said, "The little princess seems to be hungry." During this period, she didn't even dare to raise her head.
Concubine Hu's attention has been focused on Prince Jin, but she did not notice any clues about her. Hearing this, she said: "Since she is hungry, let's carry her down."
As if she had received an amnesty order, Yao Niang hurriedly carried the little princess down.
Until she entered the back room, Yao Niang could still feel a gaze focused on her back.
*
Yao Niang remembered an incident from her previous life.
Because of this incident, she was still thinking wildly when she was breastfeeding the little princess.
Looking at the little person in my arms who was sucking so hard, I don’t know why this little person’s face turned into an adult’s face.
She thought a lot...
Many things from the previous life.
Yao Niang has a special sense of shame. Even if she had to crawl into bed to serve King Jin in her previous life, after all, she is the daughter of a decent family. Even though the experience in her previous life had changed her a lot, and she understood that a woman's body is actually a tool and understood the joy between the bed and the bed, she still didn't expect that the legacy of her previous life was so deep, that she could do it with just these random thoughts. Can...
Yao Niang covered her face with one hand, feeling as if it was about to burn. Fortunately, there was no one in the room, otherwise she would have been so embarrassed that she would have crawled to the ground.
The little princess had fallen asleep. Yao Niang stood up gently, put her in the carriage, and then sat down on the soft couch by the window.
The room was very quiet, even the entire Liuchun Pavilion was quiet.
This kind of tranquility is not unfamiliar to Yao Niang, because every time King Jin went to the courtyard in his previous life, the courtyard was also so quiet.
What are King Jin and Concubine Hu doing now?
Probably he was having dinner. After dinner, he naturally had to take a rest.
Will King Jin favor Concubine Hu? Can Concubine Hu bear it?
After all——
Yao Niang suddenly felt that she should not continue thinking like this. The previous life was the previous life and had nothing to do with this life. Since she didn't plan to take this path, she shouldn't think about these messy things. Her first priority was to save her life and then go home after two years of errands.
She will always guard Xiaobao and raise him. Maybe she can open a small grocery store. The income from the store should be enough for her to maintain the livelihood of mother and son... She will send Xiaobao to study. As long as the child can recite, let him continue to recite. Maybe one day she will be able to take a new life and enjoy the blessings of a son and a wife...
Thinking about it like this, Yaoniang's heart suddenly calmed down, and those charming things before were like a pebble dropped in the lake, only rippled for a while, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Yao Niang felt her chest was wet, but she had no clothes to change into. She couldn't help but regret that she should have brought a set of clothes with her when she came here before. It was also because she was so confused that when she was breastfeeding the little princess, she forgot to take a handkerchief to cover her.
She found a piece of handkerchief and wiped it on her chest, but it had no effect at all. In addition, the room was a bit hot and stuffy, so Yao Niang simply went to the window and opened the sash.
The night is charming, but there is no wind.
The lights in the courtyard were still so bright, but it was silent. No servants were seen, but there seemed to be many guards standing in the courtyard.
Yao Niang is no stranger to the attire of these people. They are the personal guards around King Jin.
She just looked at it a few times and then stopped looking at it.
She thought that this night would probably be very long.
*
It has been set up in the east room at night.
There was a table full of delicacies, but there were only two people sitting at the table.
Concubine Hu did not ask anyone to serve the meal, but served the King of Jin herself.
Seeing that King Jin looked cold, he did not refuse when he offered to serve him a meal. Concubine Hu was overjoyed, and she was even more attentive. She was very busy picking up food and pouring wine.
After King Jin drank two glasses of wine, seeing that the atmosphere was not bad, Concubine Hu finally plucked up the courage. She felt a little aggrieved and said with a hint of coquettishness: "Your Highness, please don't blame me. I was also a temporary concubine that day. Confused..."
I have to say that Concubine Hu is very good at pleasing people.
Especially to please a man.
Perhaps she is gifted, or she may have been raped. She knows very well what kind of posture a woman should put on in order to win the favor and love of a man.
She planned it well and did it well. From bringing the little princess back to her dress and style, everything was carefully arranged, but it was a pity that she misjudged the nature of Prince Jin.
It was only after King Jin had seen this many times that he understood how deliberate Hu Concubine's actions were, and what kind of purpose this deliberateness had.
In fact, King Jin didn't care about this purpose, but obviously what happened that day left a deep impression on him. God knows the reason why he can sit here is more of an almost masochistic restraint.
This kind of restraint has followed King Jin since he was a child. He did not have the protection of his mother's family, and he grew up in a palace where people cannibalize people. Although he is a prince, he is not qualified to be willful. In order to stand out from the crowd of princes and to create more opportunities for himself, he had to suppress his nature and restrain himself for a long time. This kind of restraint almost became his innate instinct.
Prince Jin did not speak, holding the wine cup in his hand, but did not touch the wine in the cup.
Concubine Hu bit her lower lip, sobbed and begged: "If you don't look at it, look at our daughter, the little princess is so cute..."
Yes, little princess.
This is the reason why King Jin came here tonight.
Everything King Jin did was not because of the woman in front of him, but because of the little princess, his only bloodline.
So he could give Concubine Hu the position in the side chamber, give her pampering, and give her everything to compete with Princess Jin. But unfortunately, she disappointed him more and more. Maybe he had never hugged her. hope.
The King of Jin looked at Concubine Hu.
The woman in front of me, plainly dressed and without makeup, was completely different from the concubine Hu in the past. King Jin is a man with a very good memory. As beautiful, refined, demure and gentle as Concubine Hu is now, King Jin remembers how domineering, domineering, stupid and ignorant she was in the past.
Seriously speaking, it is extremely rare for King Jin to endure this for more than a year. He has never been a person who would waste his energy on irrelevant people.
"Since you understand all this, you should settle down." King Jin said in a cold and authentic voice.
Concubine Hu's face suddenly turned pale, calm? What does peace mean?
King Jin threw down his wine cup and stood up, "Be your concubine, what you should do and what you shouldn't do, I will not tell you a second time."
After saying that, King Jin left. Concubine Hu wanted to chase after him, but Fucheng stopped her from the side.
"Concubine, please stay."
Concubine Hu bit her lower lip tightly, first glared at Fucheng, and then looked at Prince Jin's disappearing back with eyes rolling.
Fu Cheng ignored her glare, and when he saw that she had given up the idea of chasing after her, he went to the west corner. Not long after, he saw Yao Niang holding the little princess in her arms and following him out.
Concubine Hu's face turned even paler, but thinking about what Prince Jin had just said, she didn't do anything recklessly.
It doesn't matter, as long as His Highness is willing to forgive her, she can always find a chance.
*
The night breeze blew gently, bringing with it a refreshing coolness.
The crescent moon hangs high in the night sky, with a faint silver glow.
The courtyard was very quiet, with several guards standing like statues in the darkness, motionless.
The King of Jin is in front, Yao Niang is behind, and Fucheng is following beside him.
Yao Niang hugged the little princess tightly and looked at the back of the man not far in front of her. King Jin's shadow was stretched so long that it even blocked the light in front of Yao Niang. She was confused and a little dark, and she stumbled as she walked.
Why did he come out? Are you planning to go to Xiaoquayuan? Why didn't you stay? Why did it appear in the small building when it was said outside that King Jin was staying at Liuchun Pavilion?
Yao Niang had too many confusions in her heart, and she found that she did not understand the man in front of her. Even if the two of them slept together in the same bed and did the most intimate things in their previous life, she still didn't understand the man in front of her.
Perhaps I have never understood it.
Yao Niang just walked away with her head down, but forgot to look at the road and bumped into King Jin. Fortunately, King Jin reacted quickly enough and turned around to grab her, otherwise we don't know what would have happened. Especially Yao Niang is still holding the little princess.
Yao Niang was completely stunned. Fortunately, the little princess was sleeping deeply, and with her arm protecting her, it was nothing serious and she still slept soundly.
The eyes on the other side were as cold as ice. Yao Niang had never been looked at by King Jin in this way.
The most she saw of him was indifference, and more often than not, she had no time to pay attention to what he looked like. After waking up, the room was quiet, except for the lingering scent of his usual incense, and nothing else.
Besides doing that thing, the two of them had too little communication.
"It's all because of my negligence..." Yao Niang said with a sigh of relief.
Prince Jin lowered his head and looked at her.
Her eyes were very dark and misty, as if she would cry at any time. The little mouth was very red and trembling slightly, as if he was very scared. King Jin's eyes dropped, and he naturally saw the wetness on Yao Niang's chest. Yao Niang's clothes were not dried, they were still wet and clinging to her body. It was deep under the moonlight, but it stuck tightly to that place, making the towering roundness very obvious and faintly white.
For some reason, Prince Jin suddenly remembered the little princess rubbing her face on her chest. At the same time, a smell that resembled orchid but not orchid, musk but not musk, mixed with a faint milky scent floated into his nostrils. For a moment, the familiar heat rose up out of thin air.
King Jin couldn't help frowning and looked up at the sky.
There are few stars in the moon, and the last quarter moon hangs high in the sky. It is only half of late April.
Jin Wang lowered his head again, glanced at Yao Niang's face with restrained eyes, turned around and walked forward without saying anything.
Fucheng whispered to Yao Niang from the side: "Nanny Su, watch your step."
Yao Niang nodded.
The three of them arrived at the small courtyard through an inconspicuous corner door, which happened to lead to the side of the west wing.
The return of the three people did not attract anyone's attention, and there were no lights on in the small building. Fucheng first went to the west wing to call for someone, and not long after, Yuyan and Yucui came out to greet him. Both of them had messy temples, and they had obviously just gotten up from bed.
They entered the small building first and lit candles without saying anything.
King Jin went up to the second floor, and Fucheng followed him.
Yao Niang suddenly couldn’t see through King Jin.
Inexplicably, she suddenly had a realization that maybe Hu Concubine's so-called favor was all fake, and it was all an illusion deliberately created by King Jin.
Why did King Jin do this?
No one could answer her.
*
The little princess has gained a lot of weight now and has more smiles on her face, instead of being as sickly and lively as before.
Mother Mu said that Yao Niang had made great contributions, so Yao Niang's status in the small courtyard became higher and higher, and even Nanny Qian and Nanny Wang had to bow down before her.
On the other hand, Yao Niang has always been gentle and could not do anything to bully others. She did not take the opportunity to run against King Qian's two nannies. But I had nothing to say to them, and the relationship between them was light.
After this incident, King Qian's two wet nurses also knew that Lady Yao was a good-tempered woman, unlike some people who become arrogant when they succeed. No matter what he thinks in his heart, on the surface he is very kind to Yao Niang.
Yao Niang’s life in Xiao Kua Yuan is getting smoother and smoother, but Cuizhu’s life in Liu Chun Pavilion is getting into trouble frequently.
In fact, it's not a big deal, most of them are trivial matters as big as sesame seeds and mung beans, but as long as it has anything to do with the master, it's not a trivial matter.
For example, when Cuizhu was combing Concubine Hu's hair, she accidentally pulled too hard and hurt Concubine Hu. Of course Concubine Hu would punish her, but she would not punish her severely. It would be a small punishment but a big warning to make her stand outside.
The outside does not refer to the porch or the shade, but to the sun. You won’t be asked to stand for more than an hour or two. But it's early summer now, and although the weather isn't too hot yet, the sun is very poisonous. Standing down for an hour or two is enough to make a person dizzy and miserable, but it won't hurt his life.
For example, if you serve tea to Concubine Hu, if the water is too hot or too cold, you will be dissatisfied. Usually Concubine Hu will hit you on the face.
Can you say she is wrong? After all, he is the master and you are the slave. If the master wants to find trouble with the slave, he can always find various reasons.
Cuizhu was in such a miserable state that not only the people in the Liuchun Pavilion were entertained, but also the people in the small courtyard.
No one spoke for Cuizhu, everyone said she should.
Why should I say it clearly?
Yao Niang finally understood why she was bullied so much by Concubine Hu in her previous life, but no one was willing to speak for her.
Because in its own sense, none of this would have happened if it had not been brought on by oneself, so no one would sympathize with Cuizhu, and naturally no one would sympathize with her.
The only difference is that maybe Cuizhu's intention is not pure, and she was forced to come here by the princess. But if she said that she didn't know or understand anything at that time, probably no one would believe her.
So, who calls you stupid? It's your turn to bear all this!
Even Yao Niang herself, who had suffered the same hardship in her previous life, had no sympathy for Cuizhu at all. It was really a strange and weird feeling.
King Jin has not been in the palace these days. It is said that something happened somewhere in the fiefdom, and King Jin took his people to deal with it.
During this period, the mansion was extremely quiet. Even Concubine Hu was no longer tossing the green bamboo as hard as before. Everyone was very calm up and down.
In the blink of an eye, the Dragon Boat Festival has arrived, and all parts of the house have begun to dust, spray medicine, and put mugwort on the doors and windows. The maids and women who know needlework have made five-poison sachets to wear. Those who don’t know how to make sachets can buy some five-color silk threads, braid them, and wear them on their wrists.
Of course, the rice dumplings to be eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival are also indispensable. The palace has already started to prepare them. After all, there are thousands of people in the Jin Prince's palace, and making rice dumplings for so many people will not happen overnight. It can be done.
This kind of rice dumplings refers to big pot rice, which is also made individually in Xiaoquayuan.
Because of his special status, no one in the house dared to treat him lightly, so the small kitchen was fully stocked with materials. There are five or six kinds of rice dumplings, including sweet and salty ones, red date ones, pork ones, shrimp ones, and egg yolk ones.
Other people in the small courtyard are busy making rice dumplings, while Yao Niang is busy embroidering sachets.
Yao Niang is good at needlework. The five poisons on the five poison sachet are vividly embroidered, and the pattern of the five-color silk ribbon on it is also beautiful. She originally planned to embroider one for Grandma Mu as a sign of filial piety, and one for the little princess as a duty. Unexpectedly, after everyone saw the things, they all said that her embroidery was good, and they all asked to come to her.
She refused but couldn't. After all, the people in the small courtyard were very nice and polite to her. So Yao Niang received five or six sachets alone, not to mention colorful bracelets, silk ribbons and the like.
In the end, Yuyan spoke up and everyone calmed down.
In fact, it is not troublesome to make these things. I just made them when I had time. Yaoniang spent five days making these things. In addition, she also made one for herself. In fact, there should be two. After the things were made, Yao Niang realized that she was no longer the concubine of King Jin.
In her previous life, she also made a five-poison sachet for King Jin. King Jin did not say anything, but hung it on his waist. This was extremely unbelievable to King Jin, who was always reserved and indifferent by nature, so Yao Niang always kept it in mind and thought about making another one for him.
It's a pity that she didn't live until the time in her previous life and died in March.
Yao Niang looked at the extra sachet, thought about it again and again, and still did not put it away. Instead, she tied the two sachets together and tied them around her waist.
This sachet is not big, and Yao Niang made it very fine for herself. The whole sachet is in the shape of a butterfly, so even if there are two of them, it will not make people feel awkward, but they will think that they are a pair.
Yao Niang thought, since she has made too much, don’t waste it. When she goes home another day, she can drag someone to take it back and make a toy for Xiaobao.
On the Dragon Boat Festival, King Jin still didn't come back.
Princess Jin has always had a quiet temperament. Seeing that Prince Jin had not returned, she simply stopped holding a banquet and told everyone to celebrate the festival in their own courtyards, and distributed all the rules for celebrating the festival.
Every year, the Dragon Boat Festival is the most lively and busiest time in the Jin Palace. It's rare to have a free time this year. His Highness didn't return to the palace, and the princess spoke again. Naturally, everyone wanted to celebrate well.
In the small courtyard, there were three tables for the banquet alone.
Anyway, the dishes are all ready, so we don’t have to worry about the big kitchen. Moreover, we cook them ourselves, and everyone helps each other, so we make a very rich meal. There were not many people in the small courtyard, and no one had any urgent errands. Once they closed the courtyard door, they just took care of themselves.
Even the little princess participated, but she couldn't eat yet, so she could only watch. Fortunately, she didn't know the fragrance of grains at the moment, otherwise she might have made a fuss and wanted to eat it.
This banquet lasted until nightfall. Because they drank a lot of realgar wine and everyone was women, they were all somewhat drunk.
After helping each other tidy up the mess, they went back to their houses to rest.
Yao Niang couldn’t rest, she had to stay up late at night. But because she had to breastfeed at night, she didn't drink the realgar wine.
Yu Cui was also on night watch. Unfortunately, Yu Cui couldn't bear to drink, but she got drunk after just a few drinks. Yu Yan was stronger than her, but not by much, so Yao Niang simply stayed on night watch alone.
Originally, the little princess doesn’t make noises at night now and has nothing to do at night. It’s enough for one person to take care of her. Aunt Mu was a little worried and pointed to a little girl who hadn't drank yet and was staying out at night to help Yao Niang.
As long as Yao Niang calls her, she can get up, so she is not afraid of any emergencies.
It was quiet at night, with only a dim yellow lamp lit in the corner.
Yao Niang sat in front of Babu's bed and looked at the little princess who was sleeping soundly. Ever since the little princess could roll over, she moved from the car to the bed. The space is big enough for her to roll around without fear of falling.
Under this atmosphere, Yao Niang became increasingly sleepy and managed to cheer up, but she couldn't control the fight. She yawned, looked at the little princess on the bed, and saw that she didn't wake up or pee, so she moved her inside, and lay down on the edge of the bed with her clothes undressed.
The weather was a bit sultry, Yao Niang didn’t take off her clothes at all, and she started to sweat while sleeping.
She woke up from the heat. She got up and touched the little princess's diaper. It felt a little moist, so she changed her diaper again. When she lay down again, Yao Niang took off her coat.
She and the little princess were the only two people in the room. There were no men in the entire small courtyard, so she was naturally not afraid of what others would see.
Taking off her outer shirt and wearing only her middle coat and trousers, Yao Niang finally felt much more comfortable.
Drowsily, the little princess seemed to wake up.
Yao Niang reached out and took her into her arms, lifted her clothes without opening her eyes, pulled her bellyband to the side, and stuffed the thing into the little princess's mouth.
With what she wanted in her mouth, the little princess suddenly stopped. She sucked it with her little mouth and closed her eyes again.
Both of them slept soundly.
Somewhere, Yao Niang always felt like someone was watching her.
She opened her eyes and saw that the little princess was sleeping deeply, and the source of her gaze was from behind, so she subconsciously turned around and looked outside.
I happened to meet a pair of ruthless black eyes like a cold pool. These eyes were cold and lonely. They were very bright but had no reflection. They seemed not to put anyone in their eyes.
These are the eyes of King Jin. Yao Niang has only seen King Jin’s eyes like this.
She suddenly realized, King Jin? King Jin has returned to his residence?
Looking further down, I saw an indifferent face, so indifferent that there was no emotion, like an iceberg that lasted ten thousand years.
Yao Niang sat up immediately, because her chest jumped too much, and she naturally realized her embarrassment. She nursed the little princess and fell asleep. She didn't even pull up her clothes, and a naked white jade rabbit was exposed.
Yao Niang wanted to scream, but she held back. She hurriedly hid the white jade rabbit and hurriedly pulled up her clothes.
She was only wearing a middle coat and pants, and took off her outer shirt, shoes and socks. At this time, she was like a little sheep encountering a hungry wolf, curling up timidly. Although her posture was infinitely lowered, it still made people feel that it must be very delicious.
Yao Niang hugged her chest and her two legs, wearing only thin silk pants, were tightly intertwined.
Clothes are issued by the government, not only outer shirts, but also inner shirts. Seeing that Yao Niang had served her well, Aunt Mu gave her two more sets of clothes, which were still the same dark color as before, but the material was more than twice as good.
The thin underwear is made of Hu silk. The texture of Hu silk is light and thin, so it is the coolest to wear in summer. It wouldn't matter if he wore a few layers, but it was just one layer, and it was under the light, so it looked a bit see-through.
The turquoise wide-leg trousers make the legs under them even more slender and slender, and the small jade feet, with the fingernails on them transparent and slightly pink. Especially in the curled-up state at this time, it is even more tempting.
Prince Jin did not expect that this nanny, who was stereotyped and rigid in his impression, would have such a face! With dark eyes, he looked at the taller figure who was growing taller and taller under her embrace, and somehow he remembered the scene he just saw——
The bright red surface is moist and shiny, and it looks like snow and cream, and next to it is an innocent baby face.
The fire in King Jin's body surged up with a loud sound, and he couldn't suppress it, making him mistakenly think that it was a night with a full moon.
Yao Niang was so embarrassed that she couldn't hide or hide. However, she reacted quickly and quickly grabbed the clothes placed at the foot of the bed and draped them around her body haphazardly.
"Please forgive your sins, Your Highness. It is not convenient for me to salute you at this time."
Prince Jin hummed, his voice hoarse than ever before, "I come to see the little princess."
"The little princess is very good..."
King Jin nodded, paused, and left.
Yao Niang did not dare to delay, quickly put on her clothes, shoes and socks, and followed out.
Seeing that Prince Jin was nowhere to be found, Fucheng's back disappeared around the corner of the second floor, and the little girl Xiangxiang was sleeping soundly, and probably didn't hear any movement at all.
Yao Niang couldn't help but shake her head. The little girl is just a little girl. She can't be compared with Yuyan and the others. Her alertness is much worse. Looking back and thinking about myself, I'm not much better than the other person.
At the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief, stood in the hall for a while, and then went back to the back room.
The room was very quiet. The arrival of Prince Jin did not wake up the little princess, and she still slept soundly.
Yao Niang's face was as red as blood, and when she thought of the situation just now, she had the urge to hide her face and want to die.
She accidentally let him see such a scene. Would he think that he was deliberately seducing her? It was also because she was too negligent that such a slip-up occurred.
At the same time, Yao Niang was also a little confused. Why was King Jin staying on the second floor again? Why didn't he go back to Chaohui Hall?
After what happened, Yao Niang couldn't sleep anymore and sat on the edge of the bed in a daze. Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside. As soon as Yao Niang stood up, she saw Fucheng walking in.
"Nanny Su, bring a basin of hot water to the second floor."
Yao Niang hesitated, looked at the sleeping little princess, and then looked at Fucheng, "Fu's servant, little princess..."
"We'll just keep an eye on it for you." Fucheng waved his hand.
Since the other party said so, Yao Niang could only obey. Of course she wondered why Fucheng didn't fight it himself, but let her go instead. But after thinking about it, considering Fucheng's status, he probably never did any menial work like boiling water, so he no longer had any doubts.
Yao Niang first went to the teahouse to boil water. After the water was hot, she filled it with a copper basin and brought it to the second floor.
On the second floor of the small building, Yao Niang has never been up. The stairs are behind the nave painting in the main hall.
Stepping onto the second floor, you are faced with a small hall, with only one door leading inside.
The door is ajar at this time.
Yao Niang pushed the door open with a basin in her hand, and there was a dark brown floor in front of her eyes.
The floor was wiped clean, and there was a felt mat with a dark purple woven pattern spread in the middle. Anyway, with Yao Niang's vision, she couldn't recognize what the pattern on it was, but she just thought it was very beautiful and matched well with the furnishings of the room.
On the wall directly opposite is a row of windows, with tables placed under the windows and purple gauze curtains hanging on the windows. At this time, two windows were wide open, and the night wind blew in from outside, stirring the gauze up and down.
On the right side is a row of book shelves and gauze covers. In the hazy night, you can faintly see bookshelves and bookcases, as well as several armchairs and flower tables. There is also a row of book racks and gauze covers on the left side. The lights are on inside. The lights are not bright, but you can see an Eight Immortals table and a imperial concubine's couch under the window.
But Yao Niang's eyes were not focused on these, but on the half-closed door further inside, where the light came from.
Yao Niang took a deep breath and walked over with the basin in hand.
She had no choice but to hold the basin with one hand and knock on the door with the other hand. She could only place the copper basin on the ground and knock three times.
"Come in." It was King Jin's usual cold voice.
Yao Niang opened the door and walked in. The furnishings in this room were simple yet elegant. In one corner of the room stood a gilt-gilt dragon and three-legged incense burner, which seemed to be burning incense. There was a unique and special smell in the air.
This is the smell that belongs to King Jin, and Yao Niang remembers it most because she woke up to the aftertaste of this smell many times in her previous life.
Inexplicably, she had some heart palpitations, and when she raised her head and saw Prince Jin sitting on the edge of the bed behind the curtain, with his black hair hanging over his shoulders and his long and narrow phoenix eyes looking at her, she felt even more... Feeling of suffocation.
Heart, pounding, beating very hard.
