The queen's heart is unpredictable

Zhang Xiaohua's face suddenly burned.

But Duanmu Yu pretended to be puzzled and said, "I said the bellyband is too small, why is your neck so red?"

……

What... what?

Are you talking about the bellyband?

"Cough!" Zhang Xiaohua coughed slightly in embarrassment, "I...I...I might have caught a cold."

"Oh." Duanmu Yu nodded, and at the same time she withdrew her hand, she nodded and said, "Then hurry up and put on your clothes."

Zhang Xiaohua looked at Duanmu Yu in surprise.

Duanmu Yu narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, "What? Still want to stand in front of me like this?"

No, nothing!

Zhang Xiaohua shyly carried her clothes and ran into the ear room.

But when she stretched out her hand to change her clothes, she suddenly saw her hand licking.

Is it because of the cold?

Or because... because you're too nervous?

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help stretching out her hand to hold her chest. After feeling that the heart hidden in her chest was beating wildly, the image of Duanmu Yu suddenly flashed in her mind.

In an instant, her face burned again.

what happened!

How come when she thinks of Duanmu Yu, she feels like... like a mess...

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help biting her nails, but then she put down her hands and quickly packed up her clothes.

She must have drunk too much last night, and she hasn't sobered up to now, otherwise it wouldn't be like this, definitely not!

After changing her clothes, Zhang Xiaohua walked out nervously.I thought Duanmu Yu would lie back on the Luohan bed, but I didn't expect Duanmu Yu to quietly fold the pile of clothes that Zhang Xiaohua had just replaced.

"I'll come... I'll come." Zhang Xiaohua hurried over, but when she stretched out her hand, she happened to touch Duanmu Yu's cold fingertips.Zhang Xiaohua trembled uncontrollably, and then hurriedly said, "I should be the one to do these things, Her Majesty the Empress just needs to rest."

Duanmu Yu didn't say much, when she withdrew her hand, her fingertips brushed the back of Zhang Xiaohua's hand intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhang Xiaohua suddenly felt an inexplicable pain in her heart, she bit her lip nervously, and then secretly glanced at Duanmu Yu.I saw that her thin back was full of desolation and coldness. From a distance, she looked like a holy white lotus, with a sacred meaning that should not be played with.

But...But Zhang Xiaohua felt that Duanmu Yu herself was...not like this at all!

She is an old fox at all, and a piranha at all!

Zhang Xiaohua really doesn't understand why Duanmu Yu always has a fairy-like look when she is alone, but whenever she speaks or gets close to her, she becomes... becomes... completely different up.

Is this the so-called fact that you can only watch it from a distance and not play with it, because when you get close, you will find that the white lotus is actually a piranha?

Zhang Xiaohua sighed for a while, and suddenly heard Duanmu Yu say, "You can wear that undergarment tomorrow, the honey-colored long skirt, it feels very suitable for autumn."

"Oh." Zhang Xiaohua nodded, but then remembered something, "Tomorrow? Isn't there going to be a crab feast in the palace tomorrow? I don't think it's proper to dress like this."

"You can wear ordinary clothes and go out with the ladies from the official family." Duanmu Yu rummaged through his closet, then took out a silver inlaid coral walker and handed it to Zhang Xiaohua.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at Duanmuyu in a daze.

Duanmu Yu smiled softly, "Take this out tomorrow, don't be too plain."

"I don't need this."

"Those official ladies are all snobbish and don't bring anything, how can you play with them?" Duanmu Yu stretched out his hand and swayed his steps behind Zhang Xiaohua's head for comparison.

But Zhang Xiaohua was even more puzzled when she heard this, "I'm just a palace lady.

Girl, why do you want to hang out with those official ladies? "

"Because I want to inquire about something for me." With a smile on his face, Duanmu Yu stretched out his hand and rubbed Zhang Xiaohua's head, "You won't let me down, right?"

Well... that's not necessarily the case.

Zhang Xiaohua thought inwardly without confidence.

The next day, Duanmu Yu hosted a banquet in the palace. Apart from the courtiers, she also invited all the officials' children into the palace to taste the first batch of fresh crabs after autumn.

Speaking of food, Zhang Xiaohua was very excited, but she didn't have a part in this crab feast.

Because a name card is required to enter the table, and Duanmu Yu didn't want to cause trouble, so he asked Zhang Xiaohua to wait for the banquet to end and go to the garden to meet those official ladies.

In the final analysis, she was not given food and asked to work.

Zhang Xiaohua was totally unwilling, but thinking about what happened when she was drunk before, she suddenly felt guilty and willingly squeezed by Duanmu Yu.

"Today's crabs are really fresh."

After waiting in the garden for a long time, Zhang Xiaohua finally got someone.Hearing the man giggling and praising the deliciousness of the crabs, Zhang Xiaohua's stomach grumbled, feeling resentful, but she still smiled and walked over.

"In the past, the monarch would only entertain our father and mother. I didn't expect that even we could enter the palace to have a taste this year." A woman in a peach red cross-neck skirt and a girl with double flat buns circled a The tall and gentle woman was chattering non-stop.

After seeing Zhang Xiaohua, the girl stopped, and a trace of doubt flashed in her big watery eyes, "Are you also the sister who came to the palace to eat crabs?"

"Yeah." Zhang Xiaohua walked forward with a smile, and while silently nodding, her gaze passed over the woman beside the girl.This woman is good-looking, her eyes are full of tenderness, she looks like a dignified and decent lady.

Perhaps Zhang Xiaohua was too focused, so the woman glanced at Zhang Xiaohua, but then she turned her head away and said to the girl beside her, "Young Ling, do you still remember what Dad ordered before entering the palace? "

Qi Shaoling took Qi Mingyue's arm and said with a sweet smile, "Daddy told us not to talk too much. I don't talk too much today." After finishing speaking, she looked at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "I'll see this sister I just want to get to know you."

"Oh..." After meeting Shang Qi Shaoling's gaze, Zhang Xiaohua came to her senses, and then introduced herself according to Duanmuyu's previous explanation, "I am the third lady of Zhang Shangshu's family, Zhang Miao."

"Zhang Shangshu? The Zhang Shangshu who was promoted to Beijing a few days ago?" Qi Shaoling suddenly realized, "No wonder I saw my sister's face..."

"Well, yes. Daddy has just entered Beijing, so he hasn't moved around yet." Zhang Xiaohua held Zhu Tao's usual official tone, and forced a smile to agree.

Qi Shaoling smiled very sweetly and cutely, "It just so happens that my father is from the Ministry of Household Affairs, so we must move around more." After finishing speaking, Qi Shaoling ignored Qi Mingyue's obstruction and walked directly in front of Zhang Xiaohua , "Sister is the same as us, she thinks the banquet is too boring, so did you come out early to play?"

"Uh-huh!"

"That's just right, I heard that the monarch got two pots of colorful peonies a few days ago, and I just want to go and have a look." Qi Shaoling smiled at Zhang Xiaohua very familiarly, "Sister, let's go and have a look together."

Zhang Xiaohua didn't know what to say, but Qi Shaoling sent an invitation, so she happily accompanied her.

Along the way, Qi Shaoling chattered non-stop.

Zhang Xiaohua learned that the two of them are Qi Yao's cousins, but the family lineage is complicated, and they are from side branches, so they are not very familiar with Qi Yao.But in any case, their father was blessed by the Qi family and took a job in the household department.

Qi Mingyue listened from the side, obviously a little helpless for Qi Shaoling's nonsense words, but it's not easy to stop her directly, so only when Qi Shaoling said something that could not be said, she would push Qi Shaoling and tell her not to say any more up.

Qi Shao

Ling is quite well-behaved, and will stop talking every time under Qi Mingyue's reminder.

Not long after, the three arrived in the garden.

These days Zhang Xiaohua stays with Duanmu Yu every day, she hasn't come to the garden for a long time, she never thought that there are actually two peonies planted in the yard.It's just that this peony is not the same as the ones we usually see. This peony has two colors of flowers growing on the same tree. It is really miraculous at first glance.

"Wow! It's so beautiful!" Qi Shaoling was just a ten-year-old kid, so his reaction after seeing these novelty things was naturally more obvious.On the other hand, Qi Mingyue was a little more stable, just pursing her lips and smiling quietly.

Just when the few of them were discussing why there were two peonies of different colors around the peony, dense footsteps and voices came from the side of the garden.

It seems that the banquet is over.

Zhang Xiaohua was about to look back, but suddenly heard a slightly arrogant voice from behind, "Hey, aren't these the two eldest ladies of our Qi family's useless family? Why are you even invited into the palace?" inside?"

This tone, as soon as you hear it, you know it's not good.

Zhang Xiaohua wanted to leave out of a non-provoking attitude, but when she looked up at Qi Shaoling's blushing eyes but remained silent, she paused, feeling a little strange.Taking a closer look, it turned out that Qi Mingyue secretly grabbed Qi Shaoling's wrist, so Qi Shaoling didn't jump out.

But at this time, the voice from just now became closer, "Tsk, the beautiful scenery was spoiled by two unsightly dirty things. It's really disappointing. Let's go to another place to see the scenery..."

"Qi Yue, don't bully people too much!" After all, Qi Shaoling was a child, so he couldn't hold back for a moment, broke free from Qi Mingyue's restraint, and wanted to rush forward.

Qi Mingyue wanted to stop her, but not only did she fail, but she herself fell backwards because she was anxious, and she lost her footing. She instinctively wanted to hold on to something, but in the end——

"Ah!" A scream appeared in the garden.

"Colour...color...color peony was dropped by you!"

Zhang Xiaohua looked back, and as expected, two peonies fell to the ground.

At this time, both Qi Mingyue and Qi Shaoling's faces were pale, and only Qi Yue gloated and said, "If you broke the monarch's peony, you two will be punished! Even your good-for-nothing father will also be punished." responsible!"
