Chapter 11 Chapter Ten Trap

"It's so hot..." I thought to myself.The fourth elder brother's hand was tightly clasped on my wrist like a red-hot soldering iron.I looked up, but he looked indifferent, just looking at me indifferently, I was a little at a loss, I just subconsciously turned my head to look at Brother Thirteen and the others.Fortunately, Shisan was telling Concubine De some anecdotes about the journey. He was humorous himself, and he gave it with his articulate words, which made Concubine De lean back and forth. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief and laughed non-stop. Everyone also stopped their busy work and snickered.I can't help but breathe a sigh of relief...

"Hiss..." I gasped.It hurt so much, I felt like my wrist was about to break, I endured the pain and glanced at Brother Si, then lowered my eyes to look at the fabric.I really don't understand, how can someone do such a fiery move, yet have such a cold and indifferent expression.I couldn't help feeling a little confused. If it wasn't for the pain in my hand, I would have thought I was dreaming. "Hehe, it seems that Xiaowei really likes that material, she can't even move her legs..." Elder Brother Thirteen's smile came, I was stunned, and subconsciously pulled my hand...I couldn't move... OMG!I feel like crying, what the hell is this fourth master trying to do!I got a little angry, and raised my head to stare at Brother Si, okay!Since he is not afraid of losing face, why should I be polite?It's a challenge, right?Just as he was about to release his hands with all his strength, he saw a smile flashing across those dark eyes.I couldn't help being taken aback, "Ah!" I screamed, and with a "plop", I sat down on the ground.

Everyone around me stared blankly at me, but I just stared at Si elder brother foolishly.He...how could he let go suddenly, it's too despicable. "Xiaowei?!" Concubine De called out, and then woke up everyone, Dongmei and the others rushed up to help me, I just felt that my face was so hot that it was about to ooze blood.It's horrible, my butt hurts like hell, but I don't dare to rub it in public.I was muttering curses when I suddenly heard Concubine De ask: "Xiao Wei, what's the matter with you?" can't say... "Emiang, I just listened to the jokes of the thirteenth brother, and I clenched the material tightly but didn't expect her to come to take it, so I let go suddenly, but unexpectedly..." The fourth elder brother suddenly opened his mouth. "Hey!" Concubine De laughed, "It's a coincidence, I just feel sorry for Xiaowei..." Concubine De smiled and stopped talking.All the court ladies and eunuchs around were smiling.I'm a dumb person who eats coptis, and I can't tell what I'm suffering from, so I can only stand there and smile wryly.Dong Lian had already stepped forward and took the piece of material away. I stepped back quietly, leaning my back against the wall, and gently rubbed my poor buttocks. He couldn't help raising his head, and glanced at the fourth elder brother.Fourth master glanced at me, then turned his head to talk to Empress Defei, his expression was still calm, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Oh..." I sighed lightly.I don't know why, seeing Brother Thirteen happy because of me makes me happy too.But when I saw that the fourth elder brother was happy, I felt a kind of motion sickness. It was not comfortable, but it was really dizzy.I stared at the fourth brother unconsciously, my heart was in a mess, although I was thinking wildly, but the faint smile of the fourth brother still attracted me, maybe because it was rare, like a flash in the pan.What if he had a kind smile all year round?I subconsciously thought about the situation, "Hey..." I couldn't help shivering, I felt all the goosebumps on my body stand up, and I couldn't help swallowing, it must be terrible.

Suddenly a gaze came, and I turned my eyes to see that it was Elder Brother Thirteen, he was looking at me straight, his face darkened, I paused, turned my eyes away, and sighed inwardly: "The motion sickness medicine is here. "His gaze is more useful than anything else.I lowered my head and pondered, could it be that I was Snow White's stepmother's poisoned apple?If two people eat together, if one is happy, the other will surely choke to death?I couldn't help but smiled wryly, since that's the case, then don't eat it.I took two steps back to the side and stood behind the maids and eunuchs.I made up my mind, the worst thing I can do is to be a rotten apple, and no one wants to touch it...

After a while, it was already late.According to the rules, concubines cannot easily keep food, not even their own sons, the fourth elder brother and the others resigned because it was getting late.The fourth elder brother is the elder brother, who has already opened a mansion and built a government office, and has his own mansion, while the thirteenth elder brother still lives in Lijingxuan in the palace because of his young age. Concubine De asked Eunuch Fu to send them out, and most of the servants dispersed, but I stayed behind and helped Dongmei and the others to pack up the gifts brought back by Fourth and Thirteenth Masters.It wasn't my plan at first, but I don't want to leave here at all. Tonight is already weird enough. If I go out now and meet someone, I won't be able to bear it.That being the case, there is no safer place than Concubine De's place, they can't barge in again and drag me out by force.But Dongmei and the others thought that I stayed to help because I was friendly with them, and they were happy in their hearts, saying that I had a sisterhood, and joked with me from time to time.I really don't want to tell the truth, so I can only bear this good name and let them talk.I can't tell them that because I want to be a turtle, I think De Fei's shell is relatively hard.

After tossing for a long time, I finally got it roughly done.Concubine De saw that I was so diligent, so she praised me a few words, and even rewarded me with the piece of fabric that made me crouch. I hurriedly confessed and declined.Dong Lian and the others laughed at me for pretending to be handsome, De Fei only thought we were joking, no one knew that I really deserved it.Eunuch Fu came in to inform Concubine De that dinner was ready, and he invited the empress to have dinner, and Concubine De took Dongmei and the others there. There are great rules for serving meals, and each has a dedicated person to serve, probably for safety.This was something I absolutely couldn't get my hands on, so I just saluted and backed away.I carried the food box and walked quickly in the Changchun Palace, just now I missed my own dinner because I was busy in Defei's room.In order to serve the master, the servants who serve in the palace are divided into two groups to eat, and I belong to the group that eats early.It's really late today, I thought I'd lose everything when I went, but Li Hai'er was a clever guy, he was in charge of delivering meals and other chores, seeing that I didn't come, he left a copy for me, Put it in the food box, I quickly thanked him, and he said something that we are siblings, so naturally we need to take care of them, I smiled and thanked him again.

According to the rules, the food boxes, dishes, etc. must be returned on time, but he asked me to take them first and return them later. I don't want others to think that I am special, so I hurriedly declined Say no.Although there were other eunuchs and servants nearby, they knew that I was very favored in front of Concubine De, they didn't stop them but went along with her, so I couldn't refuse, so I had to thank them and bring them.As I walked, I sighed, the world is so cold, what I feel now seems to be the good side, I can't help shaking my head, hoping that I won't have a day when the wall will fall and everyone will push me away.

When we reached the corner, he hesitated for a while, and then decided not to go back to the room to eat.I turned around and walked towards the porch, thinking that the thing Thirteenth Brother had given me was still there, so I had to take it back.There are other people cleaning it there, I don't want anyone to know or touch it. After all, it was the first thing Shisan gave me, and I like it very much. The porch is quiet, with bamboo shadows whirling and rustling underneath. I am naturally fond of tranquility, and only now do I feel that my mood has completely improved, humming a song and walking up.When I got to the door and was about to open it, I couldn't help but pause, the door was ajar... Who is here?It can't be other palace people, even if it is cleaned, it will be done early in the morning. There are some valuable items inside, not everyone can come.I froze at the door, thinking blindly, feeling a little scared, but I didn't dare to push the door open.

Suddenly there was a tension, I was stunned, and subconsciously understood who was inside, I couldn't help but smiled wryly and shook my head, and hid for a long time, finally... I breathed out: "Master Thirteen, it's you Is it inside?" After listening for a while, there was no movement, and I couldn't help laughing, this kid is really... "Hmm..." I coughed, "Since no one is here, forget it, I'm going back." I stomped a few times, and then stood still... With a "crash", the door opened wide.Brother Thirteen was about to jump out with a face full of anger. When he saw me standing there with a smile on his face, he suddenly stopped and stood there panting heavily.I smiled, stepped forward and squeezed in from him, and put the food box on the table, only to hear the door slam shut behind me.

I took out the food in the same way, and the smell of the rice was uploaded immediately. I can see that the dishes are not bad today, such as chicken slices with bamboo shoots, double mushrooms, a large bowl of ribs and mung bean soup, and a few golden dishes. Silver steamed buns, my saliva can't help but accelerate the secretion.There was a hot breath coming from behind, and I put it on, and said with a smile: "You haven't eaten yet, why don't you make do with it, how about eating slave food?" I was holding a pair of chopsticks in my hand, and I was thinking of two people It seems a bit embarrassing to use the same. "Ah..." I was startled, I was hugged tightly from behind by Thirteen... I couldn't help but sighed and said, "If you don't go back, will the people in your house look for you?" I just felt that he froze, but he couldn't look back because he hugged him tightly. "Who cares if I am in this palace or not." I was taken aback for a moment, feeling that Thirteen's repressed emotions were being strongly transmitted to me.My heart was sore, and I couldn't help softening up.Pulling away his hand, turned around, and looked at him quietly, his eyes gradually softened.I smiled and said: "God is fair, what I take from you, I will definitely give you something." Brother Thirteen paused, then looked at me carefully, and I looked back peacefully, he suddenly smiled , reached out to help me pin the broken hair behind my ear, I have never seen him smile like that.He lowered his head against my forehead and said, "You're right, God will give me something, and I will never let go." , he will also taste the victor, not referring to... "Ah!" I couldn't help but secretly sighed, sobbing, but I couldn't say it out. Thirteen seemed to have relieved his worries, he dragged me to sit down at the table to eat together, and made a strange appearance asking me to feed him, after a while, I also let go of my worries.After eating half of it, he seemed to casually say: "Do you like to watch Fourth Brother?" "Ah?" I was taken aback, and the diced chicken I just picked up fell back to the plate. I calmed down secretly, and pretended not to care, and said, "It's okay, it's just that it's rare to see fourth master smiling, it's a bit fresh." Brother Thirteen I was taken aback, and said with a smile: "Well, then I'll keep a straight face in the future." I looked at him with a smile and said: "That's right, if that's the case, I'll see you too. " "Haha..." Thirteen laughed happily.I also smiled along with him, at least on the face of it, to cover up the matter.I lost my appetite, so I just accompanied him and stuffed two mouthfuls indiscriminately. After eating, he waited for him to rinse his mouth, and poured tea for him, but he just dawdled and refused to leave.He forced me to sit together on the soft couch next to the bed, listening to him tell jokes and tell some interesting stories about his childhood.It's just that he sometimes becomes obscure while talking, and I know that his childhood will not be happy, so I lead the conversation to other places.Watching him pointing his fingers and looking up and down when he talked about it, my heart couldn't help but fluctuate with his mood... By the time we came down from the porch, it was already late, and we were so happy chatting with each other that we forgot the time.I urged him to say: "It would be bad if someone else sees it." Elder Brother Thirteen still sneaked a kiss to me before slipping away triumphantly.I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but fortunately, I also knew that he was very familiar here, so he would definitely be able to slip away without being noticed. As soon as I walked back to the room where I lived, I saw Li Haier looking around, saw me in a flash, and ran over with a mouth full of bodhisattvas and gods, "My good sister, where have you been?" He hurriedly laughed and said: "I'm really sorry, I forgot the time when I read a book for the sake of peace, but I missed your errand? I'm really sorry." He smiled and said, "It's done. Just go back." After speaking, he turned around and didn't take two steps, patted his head, turned around and said, "Look at my memory, I almost forgot the business, Miss Xiaowei, someone gave you something , I’ve put it at your door, don’t forget.” After speaking, he turned and ran away. "Hey..." Before I could finish my words, he had already disappeared.I couldn't help but shook my head amusedly, did a ghost drive him away! When I entered the yard and came to my house, I saw a bag of things under the door, so I picked it up, and opened the door, wondering who gave it to me? ...It shouldn't be Thirteen—could it be Xiaochun?I went into the room and lit a candle, and opened the small bundle. Inside was a pine box, exuding a fragrance, engraved with the pattern of Suihan Sanyou, very elegant. I opened it to take a look—"Wow!" There are suet white jade.I couldn't put it down and looked through it for a long time, and then I remembered to see who sent it, and scrolled down, and suddenly found that there was a post at the bottom, and I took it out to read... "Ah!" I sat heavily on the chair - it was him! In a blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming.People in the past didn't have much fun on weekdays, so when a festival came, they would be lively with great fanfare, especially in the palace, everyone's face was full of happiness, and they were busy. I have never liked to eat moon cakes, and this is another day of family reunion, which makes me miss my family even more.It's just that thinking about it day and night made me feel more and more uncomfortable, and I could only force myself to let go, so although I was busy with everyone, my face was always calm.Dong Lian and the others laughed at me as a cold person. I used to only know how to read and write all day long, but now I don’t even like to talk. Look at the girls who just entered the palace, all of them are so excited , only I still look like eating and sleeping well.But they didn't know that I couldn't say anything about what was on my mind, so they could only smile and let them have fun. After a few days, I suddenly realized that I had lost weight and felt a little uncomfortable, so I woke up. It would not benefit me at all if I continued like this.So I worked harder, hoping to try my best to dilute the missing of my family, at least in this way so that I would not have so many thoughts. The concubine de concubine saw that I was diligent and willing to work, but not too talkative, so she trusted me more and treated me as her own person, and treated me better.Although Eunuch Fu has always been at odds with me, it can be seen that Concubine De is a lot more polite to me, I can't help but smile bitterly, this can be regarded as being wrong. I've always been low-key and modest, and I get along well with Donglian and Dongmei, and I'm very favored by the concubine Defei. Which other palace people don't have sharp eyes?Therefore, they are always greeted with smiles on weekdays, and they are responsive to requests.Although I was amused, I also became more careful, and I understood very well that the more this happened, the more people would be watching me eagerly waiting to pinch my shortcomings. "Huh..." I let out a long breath, only to feel that my neck was very stiff, and when I stretched my waist, it felt like a needle was pricking my spine.Busily stood up and walked around, I don't want to get cervical spondylosis at a young age. Most of the concubines in the Qing Dynasty believed in Buddhism, and the concubine De was no exception. At fixed times every day, they all had to chant scriptures and worship Buddha.So I borrowed this "Diamond Sutra" from the concubine Liang, and asked me to copy it clearly so that I can recite it to her on weekdays.I have been busy with this matter for the past few days, and what the empress means is that I hope to make it before the August Festival, so I am also playing my best.The scriptures were twisted and twisted, and it was very difficult to read, and the strokes were mostly complicated, and even if I wrote a wrong word, I had to rewrite it, so it made me miserable.I looked back and wrote another article to finish my job, and my heart finally relaxed, I walked to the window humming a song, looked at the scenery in the palace, and rested my eyes.But I still felt sore all over my body, so I turned around, but it still didn't work, so I just started gymnastics between classes.While shouting chant to myself, I worked hard to do the movements. After a while, my forehead became sweaty, and my body felt comfortable and relaxed.When I bent over to touch the ground, I only felt that my hamstrings were so painful, but I still couldn't touch the ground.I can't help but sigh secretly, it seems that my current body ligaments are not very good.At the moment, I made a decision in my heart that I will exercise more in the future to keep my body healthy. "Huchihuchi"... My head was covered with sweat, panting heavily and pressing down hard... "Hehe!" Under my brute force, my fingers finally touched the ground, and I couldn't help but secretly proud... ..."Puchi" came a chuckle.I was taken aback, and subconsciously looked up from between my legs... Brother Fourteen was raising his eyebrows, standing at the door with a smile and looking at me strangely.I was shocked!Stand up abruptly... "Ouch..." My head was so dizzy, I couldn't help taking a step back, and stood by the window, I just felt a smear of darkness in front of me, so I had to close my eyes, waiting for the dizziness to pass... After a while, I felt clear , opened my eyes, "Hey!" I was startled, the fourteenth brother was standing in front of me, looking at me thoughtfully, I subconsciously wanted to step back, forgetting that there was a window behind me. "Ah..." I felt like my body was falling outwards, Brother Fourteen hurriedly pulled me back.I gathered myself together, broke away from his hand, Fu leaned down and said, "Slave and servant send greetings to the Fourteenth Master, the master is auspicious." "Well, get up." Fourteen said lightly. "Thank you master." I blessed my body again and stood aside.I just felt a bit of a headache, and secretly worried about the reason for this thorny head.This shrewd and formidable Fourteenth Master is not a good master, and people can't figure it out. I still don't know whether he is an enemy or a friend to me... He didn't look at me again, but just put his hands behind his back and looked around the room... When he came to the table, he saw the words I wrote, and as soon as his eyes lit up, he picked them up and read them carefully one by one.Although I lowered my head, my eyeballs still followed his movements... "Your Liu characters are well written, with a straightness rarely seen in female characters." "Ah?" I was taken aback, looked at him, and just opened my mouth to say something humble. "Come here." Elder Fourteen beckoned to me.I didn't really want to get too close to him, but there was nothing I could do, so I just walked over to him and stood on the other side of the desk.Brother Fourteen didn't pay much attention to my position, he just pointed to my characters and said, "Look, the corners of your word "Buddha" are a bit stiff, I also learned Liu characters..." He raised his head, looked at me with a smile, and said, "Liu's characters are beautiful and elegant. If the writing is blunt, it will lose that taste." Then he wrote the word "Buddha" for me to read.I stretched my head to look at it, and it was indeed well written, so I was busy with a few compliments... But I really don’t really care about it, I was very casual when I was studying, and now it’s just for a lot of fun. As for whether the writing looks like Liu Zi’er or “Yang Zi’er”, I don’t really care, so I just agree with it casually he.Seeing my submissive face, Fourteen leaned over and pulled me in front of him. I was startled, and just about to struggle, he stuffed a brush into my hand and held my hand tightly. Said: "Don't move, your handwriting is good, and you have a rare character, you should improve it to a higher level." He said seriously.I was taken aback and looked up. He looked serious, but I was a little confused.I have always seen him looking tired and unruly, but this is... Suddenly seeing him smile slightly, I just reacted and lowered my head. "Come on, write with me..." I had to passively follow his pen and write, feeling uncomfortable, as if there were bugs crawling all over my body... Fourteenth brother didn't feel it, just brought me Let me write each word, and anyway, the writing is really beautiful.Seeing him being so serious, after a while, I gradually became serious in writing... "Why, is the word "Buddha" written much better?" I smiled and raised my head to look at him, and glanced at the door casually... "Ah!" After two steps.Brother Fourteen was about to speak, but he was taken aback when he saw me like this, so he looked towards the door—— "Brother Thirteen, when did you come?" He smiled and slapped Qian'er.The thirteenth brother smiled, walked in and said: "I just came here, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and in the evening there is a palace banquet, so I came here with the crown prince and fourth brother." He turned his head and looked at me with a calm expression. of.I went up to greet Ann, and he casually raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty said that you are copying the scriptures, and the old fourteenth is also there, so I'll come over to see if you have copied the scriptures?" "Yes, there is only one more page to go, and this one will definitely be used by the empress." I replied hastily. "Yeah." Thirteen nodded and stopped talking, the room was silent... "Just now, Master Fourteen saw that some of my writing was not good, so he gave me some pointers. This servant has really benefited a lot..." I subconsciously explained it, and I was taken aback, but once the words came out, it was already accepted. Not coming back.Thirteen turned his head to look at me, I smiled faintly, he was taken aback for a moment, then turned back, but there was already a smile on the corners of his brows and eyes.Seeing that he understands what I mean, I feel a little happy... "Hmm..." Elder Fourteen cleared his throat.I turned my head to look, and his face turned into that half-smile again. "Brother Thirteen, if there's nothing wrong, we should go too. It's not easy to make the prince wait." He said with a smile. "Come on, let's go, Xiaowei, you just need to be tight with this scripture." I bent down and said, "Yes, this servant understands." Seeing the two of them walking away, I couldn't help exhaling, sighing secretly, it's really dangerous, these two people have never been on the right track, and today I almost fell into it Ordered a "sandwich".Fourteenth elder brother glanced at me, I couldn't help shivering, and murmured in my heart, seeing that he was walking out like nothing happened, so I calmed down and laughed secretly at myself for being nervous... "Hey..." Elder Fourteen suddenly turned around at the door, I was taken aback, Elder Thirteen also turned to look at him. "Xiaowei, your set of writing brushes is really good, it's not made by the palace, who gave it to me, I'll ask him to get me a set tomorrow." I just feel that my throat is very dry, and the neckline is suddenly so tight that I can't breathe... Seeing the strange expression on the face of Fourteenth Brother, I can't help but smile bitterly, and I don't know that my sixth sense is so brilliant. Whether it is good or bad, but subconsciously, I am surprised, how did the fourteenth elder brother know that the brush was given by the fourth elder brother, then he is saying that... My mind was dizzy, but I still clearly felt Thirteen's eyes piercing towards me like an arrow, and I knew in my heart that the explanation just now might have offended Brother Fourteen, so... I raised my head and was about to open my mouth, but only saw Shisan's back skirt flashing, and he had already left.Brother Fourteen didn't smile anymore, he just took a deep look at me, turned around and left.I chased after two steps to the door and stopped again. I felt that my legs were too weak to stand, so I sat down on the threshold. I felt my head was swollen. I closed my eyes and leaned heavily on the door frame. , the afternoon breeze blows... How can this be good? I sighed in my heart, I just felt that my mind was extremely chaotic, and the wind hit my body. I suddenly sat up and looked at their figures in the distance. I felt faintly that I seemed to have fallen into In a trap...
