The little lady in the dining room

Chapter 165
It's been a long time since Sydney saw him wearing a flying fish suit, and now she suddenly saw him again, she was dazed for a long time before she came back to her senses: "No, no... I was going to eat with Ayao, but she was sleepy..."

Swallowing again, she suddenly understood from his smiling eyes, "Do you eat alone?" This is not a serious question.

——After realizing the reason why he came to her at night, Xueli quickly walked to the sink and washed the hands that ate the chicken feet just now!
The moon is full and the hibiscus tent is warm, so don't waste your time foolishly poking around!
She slowly rubbed against the side of the couch, and she didn't know why she blushed so much today, maybe it was because his attire reminded her of things that happened a long time ago...

She sat down on the edge of the couch, her eyes fell behind him, and then she remembered that Ayao was still asleep here.

Xue Li thought for a while, then bent down and hugged A Yao.Although Shangshi Bureau's residence is not spacious, it is still possible for A Yao to sleep by himself and sleep comfortably.She hugged A Yao and walked to the door, A Yao hummed twice on her shoulder in a half-dream, and she patted her on the back: "Be good, be good, go back to sleep."

Ah Yao slept soundly again, Xue Li opened the door to a gap that was only one person wide, and Dou Sha and Xing Ren who were dozing two feet away on the porch immediately looked over.

"Take her to the side room to sleep, I'm... a little tired today, I want to sleep better."

She calmly made up a reason, Dou Sha said "No", and called Zhang Suicai to come and hug her.Ayao is five years old now, she is no longer light, it is better to be carried by the eunuch more stable.

As soon as Ah Yao went out, Xue Li quickly closed the door, and waited until several figures left from the door before she turned to look at Xie Zhao again.

He is still resting on his side on the couch with his hands resting on his back, his lying posture is very casual, casual, chic and unrestrained.

To be honest, she thinks he looks better in the flying fish suit than in the normal suit, and although she can't say which is better than the black crown suit in court, it is a completely different feeling.

He has a tall and straight figure, and he is dressed in black, revealing the majesty of the emperor in his bones, and when people look up, they will quickly salute and shout for His Majesty's peace.But wearing the flying fish suit gave him a bit of fierceness that is unique to martial arts practitioners. It seemed that even the brows had a little bit of awe, as if the Xiuchun sword was about to be drawn out of its sheath in the next moment, and the head of the rebellious minister and thief was taken!

Xueli let herself be dazed for a moment, then she walked forward with a slender waist and gait, and waved her handkerchief: "Master Yan, if you come to this kind of place secretly at this time, you are not afraid of being harassed by the censor." impeach?"

"..." Xie Zhaoyi, who was lying comfortably, narrowed his eyes behind her and squinted at her: Is this pretending to be a girl from Jiaofang?
He raised his eyebrows to cooperate: "The censor's impeachment has nothing to do with you, why don't you undress the Lord?"

huh huh?
Sydney's bright eyes are full of joy!
She had pretended to be back like this before, but he hit her back with one sentence, saying that she couldn't walk that enchanting way and pretended to be someone else.She actually answered the call this time, which means she's pretending to be pretty good this time, right?
So Xueli got excited, sat down on the edge of the couch, leaned over to lie on his side, and scratched his side cheek with her fingers: "Master Yan, is this in a bad mood? If you don't say anything, you have to take off your clothes."

Xie Zhao felt his side cheeks and the bottom of his heart crisp at the same time!
He came here wearing this flying fish suit that hadn't been touched for a long time, he just wanted to tease her on a whim, but now it seems that he has gained something by accident!
He stretched out his hand to hold her arm, turned over to lie flat, and dragged her onto the couch.Xueli also reacted quickly, she was already lying on her stomach when she was pulled like this, but she quickly moved and lay down again, returning to her graceful appearance.

She blushed and pulled his belt with a smile and said, "Don't worry, my lord..." Her tone was so soft that she almost couldn't continue!
Xie Zhao has never seen her "expressively and emotionally" on the couch, and the uncomfortable mood was quickly overwhelmed by the restlessness in his heart. With a wave of her hand that undressed him slowly, he took off his clothes in twos and outs. Pull on her skirt.

He curled his lips into a smile: "My lord is in a good mood today, and I'm waiting for the beauty to undress."

"呲啦——" There was a sound of silk tearing, and the red bean paste and almonds in the corridor were shocked!
Although the voice inside was not loud, they still vaguely heard several words, those words were simply, simply...

God!She thought Miss Ruan and His Majesty were in love, but she actually has someone else in her heart? !
And not only in my heart, but also on the couch? !

Dou Sha felt that her heart was beating so fast that it was about to form a straight line. This was definitely a serious crime that would make everyone in Jiugeyuan unable to survive!How well does His Majesty treat his wife?Not only "very favorite" but also "special favorite"!

He regards the harem as nothing for the sake of his wife. Whether he has the heart to guard his body for his wife or not, he has actually done the thing of guarding his body, but the lady herself and others...

After Dou Sha was shocked, tears came out, she wiped it carelessly, and said to Xingren panickedly: "You stay here and watch, I, I will go and tell Fugui, and I will be back right away. Don't let others get close, don't let anyone get close. Don't talk about it..."

"Okay..." Xingren nodded in a daze, with cold sweat all over her forehead.

Dou Sha's mind was empty, and he broke into Fugui's room half a step away, and couldn't help crying: "Fugui? Fugui! There is a man in Ruan, Mrs. Ruan's room..."

"What?!" Fugui jumped out of the bed in shock.

Dou Sha was so scared that she wiped her tears: "Xingren and I listened outside for a long time, and the two of us were... Qing Qing me and me! Miss Ruan even sent Di Ji out because of this, you, you talk about this..."

Seeing how frightened she was, Fugui knew that she was definitely not trying to fool him, but he felt that this was impossible!
Isn't His Majesty treating Lady Ruan well enough?It has been six years, from simply taking care of her at the beginning to adding that relationship later, His Majesty's intentions are obvious to all!

Could it be that Mrs. Ruan was just flattery before?It's impossible!Since the two of them broke the paper on the window, after a lot of passing by the imperial court, everyone knew that Mrs. Ruan must have liked His Majesty herself. I heard that she couldn't help but prick His Majesty's arms a lot at that time, and flattery was probably hard to come by such a move.

At that time, the true feelings were touched, but now Hong Xing cheated?Why bother!Including Emperor Ping'an, they even have four children. No one in the palace has a more secure future than Lady Ruan. Why would she take such a risk?
Fugui was pacing back and forth while pondering in shock. He walked back and forth in a small room for a dozen times before settling on his feet.

He asked Dou Sha: "Did you hear what they said? Tell me."

"Say, what did you say 'undressing'..." Dou Sha was startled and ashamed, lowered her head and bit her lip tightly, and said, "That man calls my lady a beauty, and my lady calls him Master Yan."

Fugui was taken aback: "What?"

Dou Sha said again: "My lady calls him Lord Yan... Which one of the court officials should he be? What else did they say about the impeachment by the censor..."

Fugui rolled his eyes and wiped the sweat off his forehead: "Come on, let's go, it's okay, ah."

……what?

Dou Sha, who was still full of panic, was suddenly confused by his reaction.

"Hey..." Fugui smiled, went to the table and poured a cup of tea to calm her down, and briefly talked about what happened back then.It was at that time that he was "buyed off" by "Master Yan" and "Master Wei" to keep an eye on Sydney and protect her in the Shangshi Bureau, and that's how he got acquainted with Sydney and later came to her side.

After listening to Dou Sha, she was even more surprised: "That, that... that is..."

"Yes, yes, it must be!" Fugui said with a relaxed expression, "But since your Majesty is avoiding people, let's not expose anyone, just keep in touch with each other and don't panic, they can do whatever they want That's fine."

Dou Sha really wanted to go back to the door and kneel down to the emperor.

--His Majesty!You are very good at playing at night!The normal life has passed for a long time, want to try the feeling of stealing?

But on the other hand, even the "stealing fishy" was still stolen by the same person, Dou Sha was also very convinced, and had to sigh "rare".

When Dou Sha calmly returned to the door of Sydney, Xing Ren was still wiping off his cold sweat.

There was a constant wheezing in the room.

Dou Sha lowered her head and blushed and pulled Xing Ren away, and whispered a few words in her ear, Xing Ren was stunned.

"Fugui's words are quite confident, it seems true." Dou Sha clicked his tongue, "Let's prepare the things that should be prepared, and don't pass them on to others. If we ask someone to come in to take a wash, we have to follow the rules. "

"No..." She replied in shock, and Dou Sha sat upside down on the corridor and dozed off.

Xing Ren was stunned for a while, his eyes were fixed on the door of Xue Li's room, his expression was complicated.After a while, she finally regained her composure, forced her thoughts away, and sat down with Dou Sha.

After pretending to be shy and charming, Xueli slept soundly all night.When I woke up in the morning, the emperor had disappeared, and I left a note for her: Don't tell others that I have been here.

Sydney: "...?!"

Does anyone else really know? !

She thought he was just teasing her so he changed his clothes and didn't leave the door, but everyone else knew it...

Really lied to someone?It's too dramatic!

Sydney's heart was in a mess for a while, and she suddenly had the illusion that she really had a private meeting with someone last night. She lay on the couch and rubbed her face for a long time before getting up. When she passed by the case, she glanced sideways, and she was going crazy!

The "delicious" placed on the table with chicken claw bones turned into "haha", every day... oh my god!
It's fine that he saw how he ate the chicken feet yesterday, but when she went directly to the couch and got bored with him, she was a little secretly happy, thinking that at least she didn't let him see the bones!

Xueli stared at that "haha" stiffly, feeling a gust of cold wind blowing from the top of her head, all the way to her feet...

Not only was it seen, but it was outright laughed at.

Sadly and angrily, he piled up the chicken bones and asked them to throw them away. Xue Li pretended that nothing had happened, changed his clothes and washed his clothes, and when the breakfast was brought in, he asked Sesame to ask A Yao to eat it together.

After a while, Zhima came back and said: "Diji said she used it herself, and she has already asked someone to order a meal. Let me see..."

Sydney: "What?"

Zhima sticks out her tongue: "Diji seems a little upset... I quietly asked Brown Tang, who was guarding her last night, and Brown Tang said that when Diji opened her eyes in the morning, she would ask where she slept and where was the lady."

Xueli: "..." That's bad, Ayao is definitely angry with her.

Ah Yao must have felt that she was lying, and promised to sleep with her, but sent her out after she fell asleep?
Sydney herself feels that she has no credibility as a mother!
So Xueli went to please Ayao bitterly, and apologized around Ayao, explaining that she was too tired last night, she slept next to her, and she always wanted to take care of her, and couldn't rest peacefully; Cuddling her, pinching her face, repeatedly expressing sorry, it's my mother's mistake!Not anymore!

After coaxing for a long time, A Yao sniffled, leaned into her arms, and handed her a vegetarian bun.

Sydney is relieved!

She had to tell herself secretly that she had to be careful about similar things in the future.When adults break appointments with children, they always have their own reasons, but for children, they just feel cheated!

A Yao didn't care that it was A Yao who was sensible and obedient, if she did this again and again, A Yao would gradually distrust her.

This is serious!

So Sydney consciously spent the whole morning with Ah Yao.She came here to hang around, but naturally Fu's mother didn't come, so Xueli accompanied her to study, and at noon, she finally saw A Yao and was completely happy again.

When Yi Shi arrived, Xue Li was playing with A Yao on the rope.

Seeing Yi Shi coming, Ah Yao took the initiative to stop playing, stepped forward to face Yi Shi, said "Seventh Aunt", and then went to the side room to stay by himself.

Xueli thought for a while, and asked someone to call the sour plum and wumei to the Shangshi Bureau to accompany Ayao, and then smiled at Yi Shi: "Ayao has always been clinging to me, Mrs. Liangyuan, please don't be offended."

"No, no, no..." Mrs. Yi hurriedly expressed that she didn't mind, after thinking about it, she finally suppressed the idea of ​​asking the emperor about the Seven Kings, and calmly chatted with Xueli about the Shangyi Bureau.

It's not okay to rashly inquire about His Majesty's affairs, and it's not okay to fail to handle the things His Majesty explained. Yi forced himself to calm down, only staring at the tasks in front of him, and didn't mention anything else.

Jiuge Courtyard.

Seeing almonds come and ask sour plums to leave, kumquats, pomegranates, carambola and grapes are a little bit upset.But there is no other way, after all, it was Ruan's lady who ordered them, and they can't make their own decisions to replace the sour plum and dark plum.

The last four maids stuffed Xingren with pieces of silver, and Lao Xingren helped them speak in front of Mrs. Ruan. If Diji needed someone to serve her, they would go immediately.

Xingren accepted the matter but confiscated the broken silver, and left Jiugeyuan, she laughed in her heart: I didn't have that chance, Dousha thought the most clearly, and arranged someone to take good care of Di Ji, so that Madam Ruan would not feel not enough people.

This is the case in the palace. Generally speaking, you can't compete with each other to be conspicuous, but for someone like Dousha who is obviously higher than Kumquat and the others, they can't say anything if they steal their jobs.

Even when Dou Sha returned to Jiugeyuan, they could only continue to curry favor.After all, Dousha and Fugui had the final say on most matters in Jiugeyuan, unless Nanny Bai came out to intervene.

Status can really kill people.

Entering the gate of Shangshi Bureau, she glanced at Sour Mei Wumei: "You go to Di Ji, I still have something to do."

"No..." Wumei Yifu, sour plum, Xingren turned around and left before he could ask Miss Ruan where she lived.

The two little girls looked at each other, and their fear rose in an instant—they were still slaves, and their clothes could tell.Life in Jiugeyuan is easy, but when you leave Jiugeyuan, you have no confidence.Now Xingren leaves them behind...

They had no choice but to ask the kind-hearted court lady by themselves.

Xingren thought back and forth in his mind, and finally, he knocked on the door of female history Chen Qi.

Chen Qi was not on duty that day, knowing that she was someone close to Sydney, she politely invited her to sit down.It's not surprising that she came to chat, after all, it's quite common for court ladies to visit each other when they have nothing to do.

Chen Qi served her tea and snacks, and after talking for a while, Xingren asked curiously: "Ms. Ruan used to be a member of the Shangshi Bureau, how did she know your majesty? I heard that it was your majesty who took the initiative to transfer her." Those who went to the imperial dining room also said that she was from the small kitchen of which palace, and that she often had the opportunity to see His Majesty."

"Well, I know a shadow." Chen Qi said with a smile, "It seems that she met His Majesty by accident, and then got acquainted somehow. You should ask Zixian about this. Is she still in Jiuzhou? Ge Yuan? She and Sydney are the best."

"So..." Xingren pursed her lips, and then asked with a smile, "What kind of person was Miss Ruan back then? Was she a good cook? Was she smart? Or was she beautiful?"

Chen Qi: "...Not at all."

She took a sip of jasmine tea and ate honey jerky roasted from pork hind legs, and continued: "It's almost the same as now. The cooking skills are not very good, and people are not very smart. It’s not very beautiful—how many people can be top-notch?”

Xingren nodded hesitantly, and Chen Qi smiled suddenly: "But she has a good temper, and she can make herself happy and make others happy. At that time, if we were not careful, we would be punished. Everyone else was bored and uncomfortable, and she He Zixian bought some snacks and candied fruit and coaxed himself to heal, and he worked as he wanted the next day, and when the wound hurts, he stuffed it with delicious food."

Isn't this short-sighted?

A sarcasm flashed through Xingren's mind unknowingly, and then forcefully dismissed it in an instant.After calming down, I asked again: "Then... it is said that when Lady Ruan first arrived in the imperial dining room, His Majesty took care of her. Not only did she not be punished for her mistakes, but she was not allowed to get up early and was given snacks. Is this true? Or fake?"

"Of course it's true." Chen Qi grinned, "We were only twelve or thirteen years old at the time, and we were suddenly thrown to the imperial court. Who can survive without help? Alas, her life is so good. , I have also heard a lot about what happened afterwards, and I think His Majesty really loves her, and if someone else changed, she wouldn't have such a blessing!"

After Xingren left Chen Qi's room, her heart sank.

It's just pointless gossip among the maids, except for some understanding of Mrs. Ruan's temperament in the past, she basically didn't find out anything useful.

But she felt that every word Chen Qi said was so heart-piercing, even though she had heard most of them before.

Your Majesty really loves her.If someone else changed, they would not have such a blessing...
