Remnant King's Concubine

Chapter 35
After pressing for a while, she raised her head and saw that he was looking at her.The four eyes met, her eyes moved, she lost herself for a moment, and she didn't know where her mind had gone.The smile on his lips still remained there quietly, and the cunning and mischievousness in his eyes hadn't disappeared yet.

A bamboo leaf fluttered down from the top of her head and slid past her cheek. He suddenly reached out to hold it, and the back of his hand missed her face by an inch.When she regained her senses, the brilliance in her eyes disappeared, the smile on her lips disappeared, and she returned to the cautious Ji Liangruo in the past.

His eyes dimmed, the hand holding the bamboo leaf dropped, and he let go of the palm, and the bamboo leaf floated quietly on the ground.

She suddenly withdrew her hands on his lap, lowered her head, feeling a little uncomfortable: "Uh... are you better?" I knew, I shouldn't be so bad... If you only want to do things for the queen mother, Even if he undressed him, he wouldn't have such a weird feeling.

She looked at the surrounding bamboos and the bamboo shoots that had just emerged from the ground. It was because the place was so untouched by the world that she had the illusion that he was clean, warm and unscheming.

At that moment just now, it felt very good, let her collect this memory!At least she is enjoying the tranquility brought by the bamboo forest, as for him, she can lie to herself that he is too.In this way, it is a clean memory.In her life after coming to the imperial capital, she has two beautiful memories that are so heart-warming.Although they are all him, they are not barren.

After staying with Qin Yunyang for three days, Qin Yunyao took Ji Liangruo back.After getting off the carriage, the two parted ways and went back to their respective courtyards.

When Ji Liangruo returned to the room, Dongyue gave her a wink, and she told Xun'er: "Take your things back to the room first, and leave it to Dongyue to clean up here. After you clean up, rest for a while, and then go to the kitchen Make some side dishes, I want to take them to eat with the prince."

"Didn't the princess do it herself?"

"It's the same if you take it yourself." Ji Liangruo said casually, and only asked Dongyue after she had gone out, "What's wrong?"

"There is a woman living in Lengxiangyuan. She is dressed in black and covered with a black veil. She can't see her face, and she doesn't know her identity. She takes medicine every day, including three meals a day, which are delivered to her by the green shoot herself. The guards are patrolling closely nearby, and there seem to be many maidservants inside. Once I heard a cry coming from inside, it should be her screaming, screaming miserably, and I don't know why..."

"Can you hear what was called?"

Dongyue thought for a while, then shook her head: "Her voice is too thick and hoarse, and she mostly screams and weeps, I really can't hear what she is yelling." But the voice was really miserable, as if it was still hovering above her head, She felt a little scared for no reason.

She rubbed her arms, Ji Liangruo couldn't help asking her: "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay. I just think of that person, like a ghost who wants to take his life..."

Ji Liangruo was changing the jewelry on his head when he heard that he almost broke the jadeite hairpin he had just pulled out.Wronged souls claiming their lives?In the Houmen of the deep palace, where are there not many people who died unjustly?
She put down the hairpin carefully.He only picked this one from Yizhan Pavilion, and Qin Yunyao said that she saved him money; if it was broken, I don't know what he would say about her.

Dongyue said again: "I went to find Ruixue."

"Oh? How?" Ji Liangruo asked.

"She said that she did not forget the Queen Mother's order, but she didn't get much useful information because she couldn't get close to the prince. If there is a chance, she will definitely help us."

Ji Liangruo said: "You can't trust her words completely. She has been in the mansion for three years, and she might have become a prince. Also, I have always wondered how our news reached the queen mother so smoothly? What if Isn't it bad that the prince let us do that on purpose?"

Dongyue's eyes were slightly cold, and she said: "The princess wants to know how I deliver the news, right? I won't tell you! Besides, what good does it do for the prince to let us go? Could it be that he has been acting in front of you?"

"Why didn't I act in front of him?" Ji Liangruo squinted at her, "I'm not interested in knowing how you spread the news, I just remind you to be careful! If he doesn't have any skills, the Queen Mother doesn't need to be so guarded against him!"

Dongyue bit her lip and didn't talk back.After standing for a while, she looked outside and whispered, "Someone is here, I'm afraid it's Eunuch Wang."

Ji Liangruo stood up and found a piece of clothing to change into.Dongyue heard the footsteps outside the door getting closer, so she walked over to help her.

Ji Liangruo let her come, and whispered in her ear: "No matter what the Queen Mother has promised you, you are just a servant girl now."

Dongyue shook her hand and looked at her in surprise: "You... how do you know?"

"You just think about how you will turn around in the future, so you dare to ignore me like this, don't you?"

Eunuch Wang's voice came from outside the door: "The servant greets the princess—"

Ji Liangruo winked, Dongyue raised her voice and said: "Eunuch wait a moment, the princess changes clothes." After finishing speaking, she lowered her head and served Ji Liangruo seriously.

Ji Liangruo had a deep meaning: "Dongyue, the benefits promised by the queen mother are not reliable. After all, the world belongs to the emperor." And it doesn't necessarily belong to any emperor.

Dongyue's hands shook, she didn't dare to speak, she dressed her quickly and let Eunuch Wang in.

Eunuch Wang approached with a smile, greeted Liang Ruo first, and then hesitantly said: "Princess, are you going out with the prince, is everything okay?"

"Not bad." Ji Liangruo said, "The bamboo grove and garden of the fifth prince's house are very beautiful. The prince said that he would take me there in the future."

"Then... the princess—" Eunuch Wang asked anxiously, "With the fifth prince, does the princess sleep with the prince?"

"What do you think?" Ji Liangruo looked at him with innocent eyes.

He was dumbfounded.With the phrase "what do you think", he can guess that he won't have to sleep for a few days and nights!
"Eunuch came to the mansion, just rest. The prince has already said that half a year is a long time, so you don't have to be so anxious."

He said: "But half a year has already passed. Since the old slave came to the mansion, although the princess often goes to the Bixiao Courtyard, the prince hardly comes. Moreover, you only stayed there for one night... Then I don't know what it's like to stay overnight..."

What he said made Ji Liangruo almost choke on his saliva.

"Also, the concubine never lets the slave follow her when she leaves the yard. The slave doesn't know whether you went to find the prince. When the time comes, if there is no news from the concubine's belly, you will be punished and the old slave will die. Can the old slave not be in a hurry? ?"

Ji Liangruo couldn't help but sigh: "I'm going to stay in Bixiaoyuan tonight, you can take care of me. However, you should have heard of the eccentricity of the prince, he doesn't allow people to enter Bixiaoyuan at will. You just go in I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the house, so I'll stay on the porch all night. The dew is heavy at night, what should I do if my father-in-law's body can't bear it?"

Wang Gonggong said: "For slaves, this is a common occurrence. A little dew is nothing, and there are times when there is heavy rain!"

In the evening, Xun'er prepared the meals, and Ji Liangruo took her and Eunuch Wang to Bixiaoyuan.

Walking into Bixiao Courtyard, I happened to meet Mo Yan.Mo Yan glanced at the meal that Xun'er was holding in his hand, and said to Ji Liangruo: "The prince has already eaten."

Ji Liangruo twisted the handkerchief in his hand, and said to Xun'er: "Then you take it back, don't use it anymore." Then he asked Mo Yan, "Is the lord here?"

"In the study."

"I'll go find him. Where do you think Eunuch Wang will rest tonight?" After she finished speaking, she walked in.

Hearing this, Mo Yan knew what was going on. He looked at Eunuch Wang for a while, but he didn't know what to do, so he said: "Eunuch Wang is resting in the living room. Go down and ask someone to make tea for you."

When Ji Liangruo walked into the study, Qin Yunyao was writing at his desk.He looked up at her, then lowered his head and continued writing.

She walked up to him hesitantly, a little at a loss.

"Is something wrong?" He didn't raise his eyes.
