Chapter 70 Chapter 69

He lowered his head and was speechless for a while, then suddenly looked up at me and said firmly, "Ruoxi, you must tell me the reason." I covered my heart, smiled sideways, and said, "I obeyed my heart, it doesn't want to, I can do something about it." Not at all." He stared at me for a long while with a mixed expression of joy and sadness, and then said, "Fate is tricking people? I just don't believe in this evil! I don't believe that we are not destined! Even if God doesn't give it to me, I will take it from him! "While raising his hand to caress my face, he said word by word: "I will definitely save Thirteen Brothers, and I will marry you!" After speaking, he turned around and strode away with a flick of his sleeves.

I stood quietly for a long time, and after it turned dark, I walked slowly back to the house.Before I got to the gate of the courtyard, I saw Zhao Nan standing at the gate and ran into the courtyard as soon as he saw me.I wondered in my heart and hurriedly quickened my pace. When I arrived at the door, Zhao Nan was pulling the door open and was about to come out. Seeing me, he accosted me and said, "Are you back?" I smiled and grabbed her hand and dragged her into the room, "Why do you want to leave as soon as I come back? She shook her hand slightly and murmured, "I'm not leaving, I'm just opening the door for some air."

Yanping and Lanhua were sitting on the kang kneading melon seeds, although they were laughing and talking loudly, their expressions were strange.I glanced at the room and there was nothing abnormal, but I was still puzzled, so I pretended to be casual and walked slowly through the room, while deliberately pausing for a while, while stealthily looking at the expressions of the two of them, when I stopped in my box When they were in front of the cabinet, the faces of the two changed slightly, and their laughter suddenly became louder. My heart is basking, just pointing at the city mansion, and playing tricks around?Today I want to see what you guys are playing.I took out the key, opened the box, and it was turned over.

I flipped through it casually, nothing unusual.Opening the jewelry box to check, he was immediately furious, the hairpin, earrings and several other jewelry that the fourth elder brother gave were gone.I closed the box, turned around and stared at them and said, "Return it!" Yanping sneered and said, "I don't know what you're talking about." I said lightly, "You can keep the rest, but give me back the magnolia flower hairpin and drop earrings. They must still be in the house. Do you want someone to search them?" Yanping's face was slightly startled, Lan Hua smiled and said to Yanping: "There are so many of us here, your box is locked well, we haven't seen anyone touching your things, even if you make trouble with Eunuch Zhang, that's what we say, don't we So many people are lying? Besides, there are so many similar things in the world! Isn’t it just you who have the Mulan hairpin and water drop pendant, and others can’t have it?”

I walked up to Yanping, looked at her and said, "Give these two things back, and I'll let go of the rest." Yanping said angrily, "You just made it clear that you robbed me of my things." I nodded slightly, Sure things are fine with you. I turned around and took out the jewelry box, opened it and put it in front of her and said, "You can choose what is inside here, and return those two. If you think the ones here are not good, I will give you some good ones someday." Yan Ping's face was flushed, she got up and said angrily: "You are the lady of everyone? You have a lot of good things? We don't have one or two good things? We just wait for you to give alms?"

I laughed and said, "I wanted to calm things down, but it seems that this matter is really going to Zhang Gonggong. You have a lot of people, and your words are trustworthy. But will Zhang Gonggong help me or you?" Zhang Qianying used ' Divorce plan', I happened to use him today, and also came to a 'divorce plan'. The three of Yanping were stunned, and Lanhua said: "Eunuch Zhang has to follow the rules of the palace, and you can't accuse good people." I laughed and said, "I might as well just say that all gold and silver jewelry may be the same, but jade is different. Each piece of jade has its own unique texture and color. Good jade is rare, and such top-quality suet jade is even rarer. I don't believe that your jade ornaments can even have the same texture as mine, or in other words, I I would like to ask you, what is the texture and color of your jade ornaments, and where did they come from? There are jade experts in the palace, please come and ask."

Lan Hua was dazed, and Zhao Nan whispered: "Give it back to her!" Yanping glared at me angrily, took out the jade hairpin from her bosom, threw it on the ground, and said: "Give it back to you!" There was a crisp sound , The hairpin snapped off. I looked at the broken hairpins on the ground, and couldn't believe what I saw for a long time. I squatted down and picked up the pieces, wrapped them in silk, Yanping sneered and asked: "This is your earring, do you want more? " I got up and glanced at her, and said lightly, "Keep them if you have the courage, but don't regret it in the future." After finishing speaking, I closed the jewelry box on the table, turned around and put it back into the box.

Lan Hua whispered: "Give it back to her! Didn't you hear her say that this jade is rare and hard to find? I'm afraid it has a lot of history. Give it to her quickly!" The earrings were placed on the table.Zhao Nan quickly picked it up and handed it back to me, then took out two pieces of jewelry from his pocket and put them on the table. I suppressed my anger and said with a smile, "Since I said I gave these jewelry to you, there is no reason to take them back." Zhao Nan shook his head.I looked at Lanhua, who was the most responsive among the three, and said to her with a smile: "Today's incident has come to this point, it is not what I wanted. We will have a long time to get along in the future! I will pick everything up." To be clear. Although there is a saying that "a phoenix with feathers is not as good as a chicken", there is also a saying that "a centipede is dead but not stiff". Besides, you have been in the palace for many years, and you should have seen a lot of ups and downs. Leave a way out for yourself.”

I took a few sips of tea and let them think about it first. The 'coercion' is over, and it's time to 'induce'.Then he said: "I know that because Eunuch Zhang treats me especially, you have suffered a lot of grievances. This is my fault." As he spoke, he got up and saluted the three of them one by one.Zhaonan hurriedly turned to avoid it, Yanping turned her face to the side, and Lanhua jumped up from the kang to stop me. I smiled and stood up and said: "From now on, let's remind each other, try to make as few mistakes as possible, and avoid similar things from happening again. Even if there are still, I ask everyone to be more tolerant here. If others treat me badly, I will I will forget it quickly, but I will always remember the kindness others have treated me, and I will always try to repay it."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and took out the jewelry box from the box, picked two pieces of the best-looking jewelry and put them on the table, saying: "Actually, I have long wanted to give my sister something, but I can't decide what you like for a while, so I decided to give it to you." Don't dare to be casual. Now if you forgive me for my inappropriate words and deeds, don't be disgusted. After all, in this deep palace, parents and fathers are not allowed to see each other, and what I do is dirty and lowly. Everyone We all look down on each other, if we don't help each other, but instead humiliate each other, it will be even more contemptuous!"

Yanping turned her face to look at me, and I gave her a warm smile and said, "Your sister, please give me some face!" As I spoke, I forced things into her hands.She struggled a little, and finally accepted the things.I picked up the things Zhao Nan returned and handed them back to her.She took it and said "thank you" in a low voice Lan Hua said with a smile: "Then I won't be polite." I smiled and said: "It should be like this, why should my sister be polite?" Lying on the kang at night, thinking about the broken hairpins, I still feel pain in my heart. I can't even protect a hairpin well, so I have to smile and talk to each other afterward.But after all, let Zhang Qianying's wishful thinking come to nothing, and if the three most difficult to get along with surrendered, the others would be easier to deal with.Most of these people come from poor and humble backgrounds, and they are struggling in the palace. Their only hope is to live a comfortable life after leaving the palace, to help their family members, and not to be looked down upon by those around them.The most important thing is money.As long as you give them the right way and take care of their face, at least you can buy a bright harmony. On the evening of the second day, I pretended to be looking for clothes, and sorted out the things in the box. Everything else was fine, but the earrings and arrows were a bit difficult to handle. After thinking about it, I decided to send the earrings to Yutan, and let her Keep it for me.Arrows are priceless in my heart, but in the eyes of outsiders, they are just worthless things, and no one will steal them. Feeling for the arrow through the red silk, I remembered the scene of that day again. "Ruoxi, why are you just in a daze after arranging your clothes?" Chuntao asked with a smile.I turned my head to her and smiled sweetly, without answering.Put the arrow back in the bottom of the box. Closing the box, I saw her staring at me blankly, and asked wonderingly: "What's wrong?" She sighed: "Ruoxi, you are so beautiful! That smile just now seems... as if the flowers are blooming!" Said After that she felt embarrassed, I smiled and said, "I smile all day long! The flowers are blooming all day long!" Chuntao shook her head and said, "It's different, I can't read or speak, but it's different. The usual ones are not as good-looking as the ones just now." My heart suddenly felt sad, and I didn't want to tease her anymore, so I smiled lightly and changed the subject. The weather is getting warmer and doing laundry is much easier. At least the water is no longer freezing cold, and hands are no longer full of frostbite.After dinner in the evening, Yanping and the others got together to play cards. I laughed and watched for a while, then went out for a walk.Seeing Xiao Shunzi approaching, he was in a daze for a moment.He stepped forward to salute, I turned sideways to avoid him, and said to him: "Now I should salute to the father-in-law." He hastily stepped aside and said: "Young lady, don't say that, it will upset the servant." He looked around and saw no one around, and said: "It's really not easy to see a girl nowadays, I waited for more than a month, and only met once." I said: "There is only one day off in January, and the place where I live is full of people. It's not easy to talk about." He took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to me, "There are some small denomination banknotes inside, the girl can keep it close to her body, it is not afraid of losing it, and it is convenient to give it away. I will send it often in the future." I hesitated in my heart, Xiao Shunzi hurriedly said: "The fourth master said, although there are many good things around the girl, they are not rewarded by the emperor or the empress, and it is not good to give them to those people, even if it is my own. What's more, they may not be able to distinguish good from bad, but they are ruining things. It's better to give money." I said: "Thank you!" After speaking, I put the envelope into my arms. He smiled and said, "If you have anything to do, girl, you can just come to the slave directly." I nodded slightly, and he gave a thousand slaps, turned around and left.
