The maid is the queen

Chapter 50

How intimate is the little thing, if I remember correctly, at noon that day in Xia Juntang's mansion, someone touched my face like this and called me little thing affectionately.

Is it him?
Turning his face to look at him, his eyes were like eyes expressing dissatisfaction, there was a smile in his dark pupils, and he became more and more arrogant, telling me that it was him.

"How?" He hugged my neck and asked Lin Luoshui.

Lin Luoshui withdrew his hand: "As the emperor expected, I will definitely do it myself."

When he finished speaking, he looked up at me, with infinite sigh and pity faintly.

"What's wrong?" I asked him a little strangely.

But he held my other hand, covered the back of my hand with five fingers, and hugged me tightly from behind: "It's nothing."

It's strange, isn't it because he drank the medicine in the morning and vomited to let him know?That's all the fuss.

"Zhiqiu, do you like children?"

"I don't know." I think this must be a relatively safe answer.

He didn't delve into what I said, just kept picking up vegetables for me, and said ambiguously: "I want to make you fatter, so that you will be warmer when you hug me in winter."

My face is blushing, the corners of my lips can't hide my slight ridicule, can I be pampered and live through the winter?
That night, I was still sleeping in Zhenghua Palace. What made me feel relieved was that he still just hugged me and slept obediently. In the afternoon, when I wanted to go to Ninggong Zheng, I pulled his hand away and remembered.

I didn't expect to wake him up, wrapped my arms around my waist again, and said very displeasedly: "What are you doing?"

I replied softly: "There are rules in the palace, you can't stay with the emperor all night."

But he entangled his limbs and said nonchalantly: "Ning Gong is letting me kill you."

It was really a basin of cold water pouring from head to toe, which made the whole body cool.

Why did he kill Ning Gongzheng? She just told me the palace rules, and she didn't commit any serious crimes.Most of the time, he is like a big child, a little squeamish and arrogant. The environment in which he grows up is different, and the personality of a person is also different.

But he probably wouldn't kill Ning Gongzheng, who was obedient to guarding the palace rules, just because of this.

I'm not a stupid person. What he said and did today, combined with Xuan's Lin Luoshui, I already have a general impression in my mind.

My heart keeps sinking and sinking, tightening and tightening, will it be what I think?I am afraid.

"Drink some soup." He whispered in his ear.

After drinking the hot soup, I don't know what it tastes like, but I feel that my heart is also hot.

He smiled happily: "With a silly face, I really fell in love with you for some reason."

After lunch with him in a trance, he went about his business and no longer insisted on asking me to accompany him.

Going around the lake, the cold wind chases the water, which is dazzlingly silvery, slapping the shore with a low sound and rippling slightly, giving it an unreal feeling.

Walking back to the dilapidated small house, the two maids were diligently mopping the floor and asked me carefully if I wanted some snacks.

Hugging her knees and looking out of the window, the gray-blue sky was too far away to be touched, her heart ached, she buried her head in her knees, and hugged herself tightly with her hands.

Is there something wrong with the medicine I'm taking? Is it because I won't have children anymore?

But if this is doomed for the rest of my life, even if I have a child, will I be happy?With my low status, according to palace rules, I am not allowed to bring up children by myself, and I am not allowed to raise them by myself.

If the child can survive and grow up well, will he be ashamed of his low status in the future?I don't know, I don't want to think about things that are too far away, my head hurts, and the wind is so strong, I can't blow away the melancholy and worries all over my body.

There is still no news about Xia Juntang, but I have already bowed my head to his side.

I looked at the gray-blue sky and laughed, this gray-black life without any luster, I still have to learn to be happy, let go more, want to drive more, if I am not careful, I will fall into the painful lake, always Struggling, I don't want to lose my nature, I just like to be happy, no matter how many hardships, I will get over it step by step.

Without thinking too much, I took the book and sat on the floor and flipped through it, page after page, letting time sigh through my fingertips.

At night, let the torrential rain wake up, slapping on the wooden windows and making noises, the bright brilliance, one after another, brighten the night, followed by the rumbling sound that resounds through the sky and the earth.

The first rain in winter, I thought it would be a continuous drizzle that was piercingly cold, but I didn't expect it to fall in such a rush.

The wooden door creaked in the wind, and the rain blew in through the crack of the door, and water dripped down my face. I sat up, retreated to a place where there was no light rain, and waited quietly. dawn.

The ground was already so wet that even the wooden boards had changed color, and the quilt was also soaked in water. On the bed and on the ground, there were pots and bowls filled with water. It was raining heavily outside and light rain inside.

When it rains, the weather is as cold as anything, the sky is still gray and drizzle, and the chill is caught in the rain, making the whole body tremble, but there are no winter clothes yet, he gave them last time Most of the clothes are autumn.

When the two maids came, they looked at the pots and pans in the room in surprise, and looked at me cautiously. I smiled and pretended not to care and said, "It rained too much last night."

"Zhiqiu, Zhiqiu." A familiar voice outside called me.

I went out and closed the door lightly, seeing Zhuo Gu coming over with a small umbrella and carrying some things in her hand, I hurried over: "Zhuo Gu, why is it raining, how is the princess?"

Zhuogu frowned and looked at me: "Why are you wearing these in such a cold day?"

I laughed and said, "I'm young and in good health, so I'm not afraid of the cold, Zhuogu, please tell me how is Yitai Concubine's health?"

"It's much better now. She woke up when it rained yesterday, and she said that it's very cold here, and she asked me to bring you charcoal early in the morning."

It's so warm, I almost burst into another tear, I'm such a worthless guy, I like to cry all the time, I took the things from Aunt Zhuo, and asked in a low voice: "Is there any news about him?"

But she grabbed my hand, pulled it to her side and said, "Zhiqiu, I heard that some clues have been found, and I will find him soon."

That was great, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhuogu is someone who has been here, she knew that staying here for a long time would be bad for me, so she said something and went back with an umbrella.

In the cold winter, if you ask for warmth, it will always warm your heart like a fire.I didn't tell her that there was charcoal, but there was no charcoal stove, and there was no firewood for a fire.

The quilt is wet, and there is no weather to dry it, so I can only sit and fall asleep holding the clothes at night.

The two maids motioned me to tell the emperor, I just pretended not to know what they meant.

In my opinion, asking for one step has already cost me a lot. I don’t want to ask him for everything. It rains today and tomorrow, it’s impossible to rain all winter, and I can pass it if I bear it.

It was cloudy and rainy for three consecutive days, and I have gradually gotten used to sleeping with my body huddled and hugging my clothes. Fortunately, he didn't call me over to accompany me for three days. Treat him tenderly, and he feels that he has no energy.

But I don't know why, but I still feel a little lost in my heart. Is this how men are?Maybe some are and some are not, because in my opinion, Xia Juntang would not be like this. He is a good man, but he does not belong to me.

The two maids brought a bucket of hot water, warmed their hands and said, "Miss Yun, if there is nothing else, we will go back first."

"Go back, it will be cold if it's too late." I responded softly.

I have no name or role in the palace, and I can't even say that I am a palace maid, and I can't say anything. My status is very embarrassing, so they all call me Miss Yun.

He untied his hair, closed the door, and scrubbed. He didn't dare to use too much hot water. He had to use it to scrub his body. It was a bit troublesome in the cold weather. He didn't dare to wash in cold water, and there was no place to heat hot water. They carried it to me where there was water.

As soon as my hand touched the water, I heard someone calling outside: "Yun Zhiqiu."

It turned out to be the voice of my father-in-law. I hurried to open the door. The wind blew my hair flying all over the sky. I quickly grabbed it with one hand and looked at him standing under the gray sky with some surprise.

I thought he forgot me?Now he actually put down his body and came to this place.

Putting away her surprise, she saluted gently: "This servant has seen the emperor."

"Get up." He stepped up and went in without saying anything.

I followed him a little uneasily, looking at his expression quietly, his face was elongated, he seemed to be in a bad mood, I had to be careful.

"What are you doing?" He sat upright on the only chair in the room.

It's a pity that there is too much shortage of things here, I can't even make a cup of tea, so I went to the table to wash the cup and poured him a cup of warm water, and said softly: "This servant is just going to wash his hair."

"Let's wash." He picked up the water and drank it shallowly.

Your heart is unpredictable, how can you do these things in front of him?But he actually told me to wash my hair right in front of him.

Seeing his eccentric look, I had better not disobey him, I squatted down, scooped up water and gently washed my hair.

The light in the room is getting darker and darker, the air is not daring to come out, only the soft sound of scooping water can be heard.

After washing it messily, after a while, I found a dry cloth to wipe the water, and looked at him cautiously.

His face was half-sunken in the darkness, so I couldn't see his expression clearly, but the breath around him told me that he was very unhappy, and he had the vigor of a storm about to come.

"Come here." He called coldly.

I almost didn't jump up in fright, but I still calmed down and walked gently to his side.

As soon as he pulled me, let me sit beside him intimately, took my hand down with one hand, and then he gently wiped the water on his hair.

The faint fragrance of the hair, mixed with the refreshing smell of his body, seems to be able to stop time, he wiped it lightly, while I was jumping anxiously, I was really afraid that he would suddenly pull me hard s hair.

In the end, he got worried and went to the back, and he didn't tease me like this, but sniffed hard: "What's the smell in this room?"

"It must have been raining for a few days, and the smell from outside has blown in."

"What's wrong with this table, why is it wet?"

"Just wiped it with a damp cloth." I tried not to let him know.
