night snow full of clear branches

"See the emperor!" Wei Yu and I blurted out, the rhythm was very consistent, and the words were correct.

"Wei Yu, you are usually the most prudent, why are you playing around after you collapsed here today?"

Weixue didn't mention me, but I know the cause of all this is me.

"Wei Yu knows his mistake, please forgive me." Wei Yu changed back to the well-behaved Wei Yu.

Thinking that this matter was my fault, I followed up and said: "It's mainly Wei Chen's fault, I shouldn't make fun of Wei Yu."

"Huh!" Wei Xue snorted and walked away.

I straightened up, took a deep breath, and looked at the light rain. "I'm sorry, I let you, the most stable person on weekdays, follow my example."

"It's okay."

We also know that Weixue will not really punish her for this small mistake.

Unsteady people like me are rare in the palace, but they can still live safely to this day. I have to thank Concubine Min, Wei Xue and others for their generosity.

When I walked into the palace, I saw a batch of rosters brought by the female officials. I remembered that a new batch of palace ladies had been admitted recently, and the elderly palace ladies were about to be released from the palace.

When will Wei Xue have to personally take care of such trivial matters as delegating palace maids?

The female officer put down the roster, Wei Xue casually flipped through it twice, added a few strokes and then closed it. "Just put it on this roster."

I leaned quietly on the pillar not far away and watched the palace people coming in and out. A bunch of fresh oranges were added to the small table, which looked delicious.

Pulling the little maid next to her, she secretly said: "Bring me an orange." I often do this, and Wei Xue also turns a blind eye. As time goes by, everyone will let me go.

The little palace lady came over slowly, took two oranges and stuffed them into my hands, I immediately peeled them open and ate them, it was really sweet, and I didn't forget to pass a few pieces to the person next to me.

"Qingzhi, the oranges are so delicious that you can't bear to order them from me." Unexpectedly, I was eating happily, and Wei Xue's eyes shot over from not far away, I put the last petal into my mouth, and pointed at the table next to her Said: "Aren't there many there?"

"Then peel one off for me!"

There are so many maids in the palace, she must be doing it on purpose if I insist on stripping them off.

Picked two oranges, one big and one small, and shook them in front of Wei Xue, "Your Majesty, do you want the big one or the small one?"

"casual."

I broke the tangerines and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to Juluo or not?"

"casual."

"emperor--"

"Just say whatever you want!" Wei Xue turned her head impatiently, just in time to meet the orange I handed over.I looked at her friendly, "Peel it off, let's eat."

In the distance, I saw a little maid with her head lowered and the corners of her mouth raised, she probably wanted to laugh.

After eating the oranges, Wei Xue asked, "Where did Noon and Light Rain go?"

Why did I suddenly think of asking this at this moment, so I had no choice but to answer truthfully: "Go and look around."

"Yes, I remembered, today is her birthday." It is rare for a king of a country to remember the little female official's birthday.

"Yes, she is 21 years old." She has been in the palace for almost ten years.

"So you hurriedly finished your meal at noon just to celebrate her birthday with her?"

I nodded, thinking that there is nothing wrong with this, right?

Wei Xue smiled, "It's rare that you still miss it."

"Wei Yu treats me well on weekdays, so I naturally have to remember that I also gave her a rare jade pendant." Courtesy is also very affectionate.

"Oh? What kind of jade pendant?" Wei Xue expressed curiosity. My language is limited, so I just said that I will let Wei Yu take it out and have a look next time.

Unexpectedly, Wei Xue asked after hearing this: "Then what would you like to give for my birthday?"

I didn't even think about sending it, okay?And... "Your Majesty, when is your birthday?"

As soon as I asked, I knew that Wei Xue's face was about to change, she looked at me sullenly. "What the whole country knows, you don't know?"

It's embarrassing. "Your Majesty forgive me, I can't think of it for a while." I never remembered it at all.

"Can't remember? I think you haven't thought of it at all, have you?" I have to say that Wei Xue really understands me, which is what I don't like.

"I will definitely remember next time."

"Go out, don't leave the palace for these two months!"

I stepped out of the room with a bitter face, feeling very aggrieved, don't I know the emperor's birthday, as for?Not letting people out of the palace.

"Wei Yu, do you know the emperor's birthday?"

"I know, the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month."

Wei Yu has been with Wei Xue all year round, knowing it is normal, but not knowing it is strange, so I asked Liu Yan from the embroidery room instead.

"The sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, who doesn't know." Liu Yan also knows!

"Well, it seems that I am really not paying attention."

"Why, I haven't seen you for a long time, and it's rare to come here just to ask this?" Liu Yan put down the needle and thread in her hand and looked at me suspiciously.

I quickly waved my hand, "No, it's rare to come here once, of course it's to see you."

Liu Yan nodded and said: "That's pretty much the same. In fact, if you don't come, I will say goodbye to you in a few days."

"Farewell? Where are you going?"

"Go home, my name is on the roster of maids released from the palace this time."

"Isn't there still two years left?" I remember what Liu Yan told me before it was her turn in two years.

"At first, I thought there were still two years left. Who knows what the higher-ups think, anyway, just listen to the arrangement. Speaking of which, I also want to go home early." Liu Yan once said that there are people waiting for her in her hometown, so it seems , going out early is really a good thing.

"Then I won't be able to come to you anymore." As soon as Liu Yan left, I only counted the two maids in Concubine Min's palace. Ajiu and Xiaowen are still on good terms with me.

"By the way, Ah Jiu and Xiao Wen will also be released from the palace."

"Why did you all leave all of a sudden?" I expressed my incomprehension, Xiao Wen was about the same age, so Ah Jiu and Liu Yan were not old enough, it didn't make sense.

"The old man is gone, the new man is here, don't be too sad, if you go out of the palace to roam the rivers and lakes, you can also visit our hometown by the way."

"The new guys are a bunch of little girls." I don't think it's possible to play with them.

"Pfft, then wait for two years, how about you resign and come to us again?" It was easy for Liu Yan, but only I knew it was not easy at all.

"Hey, let's go, let's go, let's go." The palace will be even lonelier in the future.

"Actually, I'm also reluctant, we grew up together." Liu Yan comforted me, I just felt that everything was changing too fast.

Thinking that when I entered the palace at the age of 11, I had good friends from court ladies and eunuchs to princes and princesses. Now I have gone one by one, and the last three have also gone, and there is one Xunjia who has been invisible all day, teach me how not to feel nostalgia.

"The day I leave the palace, I'll see you off."

"Okay, I will definitely send it. If possible, I still count on you to send me home." Liu Yan was joking, and I really wanted to take it seriously.

When going back, I happened to meet Xun Jia coming down the steps of the main hall.

"cousin."

"The emperor is looking for you?" If it wasn't for Wei Xue looking for you, I still wouldn't be able to see him.

"Well, sister Huang asked me where I want to go in the future?" Xun Jia's eyes were a little confused, it was the confusion about the future.

"Let's go to a place with beautiful scenery and beautiful mountains and clear waters." Concubine Min will like Si Yong and Si Yong in such a place, and many people will like it.

"Sister Huang said let me go back and think about it, and it will not be too late to report back to her in a few days." Xun Jia shook his head and decided to go back and discuss with Concubine Min.

Today is really not a good day, just heard that Liu Yan and the others are going to leave, and now I heard the news that Xun Jia is going to be crowned king and leave the palace, this time it is really all gone.

Weixue ordered me not to leave the palace for two months, more than a month has passed, and in a few days it will be the day when Liu Yan will leave the palace, once I leave, I don't know when we will see each other again.

Usually, the palace maids are picked up by family members when they go out of the palace. Liu Yan's elder brother should have come to pick him up too, but he waited for a long time at the side door of the palace but no one was there. For this reason, I decided to go against my orders again and send Liu Yan out of the palace all the time. out of town.

"Thanks to you for teaching me how to ride a horse, now I don't have to walk back slowly step by step." Liu Yan led the horse and looked at me reluctantly.

"Oh, let's go, I'll see you off again." I jumped on the horse and pulled Liu Yan up.

The horseshoes rattled, the avenue was dusty, and we rushed to the small road outside the city.

Reining in, Liu Yan said, "You see you've come so far, it's time to go back."

"I don't want to go back." Sending her off was just an excuse.

"Still so capricious." Liu Yan smiled, not planning to continue walking, but waiting for me to dismount.

"Okay, be careful all the way." I jumped off the horse and walked away without looking back. After walking a few steps, I heard a horse neighing behind me.

Turning around, I saw three men riding horses surrounding Liu Yan, and I don't know what they did to the horse, which made the horse restless. As expected, it should be a horse thief.

"It seems that I really can't go." I smiled, pulled out the green jade staff, flew over in twos and threes, and pulled Liu Yan to the ground safely before she was thrown off the horse.

"That's right, it would be nice to hand over the horse." A man smiled disdainfully, and was about to reach out to lead the horse.

I flew up and hit him with a stick, which made him groan and look at me angrily.

"This girl can do some kung fu." The man clapped his hands and said to others.

"No matter how powerful you are, how can you fight three against one?" As soon as the other person said that, he was hit on the head by me.

"I wanted to give you a chance, but it doesn't seem necessary now." Without further ado, one of them was knocked down with a stick, one was kicked away, and one was knocked unconscious, but in the blink of an eye, the three of them fell to the ground.

"Qing Zhi, you are so powerful!" Liu Yan had never seen me beating someone, and she was worried that I would lose, but now she was completely relaxed.

"It seems that I really have to send you home to be relieved! Come on the horse and go!" Pulled Liu Yan and continued to set off, regardless of the dizziness and pain of the three of them in place.

"But don't you need to tell the palace?" Liu Yan still knows the basic rules, but I can't control so much. "No, you just come with me, and I will take you home safely. I will have my own explanation when I come back."

"Actually, if you don't ride a horse, you might not be targeted." Liu Yan regretted.

"Why do you think so much, don't you still have me!" At this time, there is a sense of accomplishment as a hero saving the beauty.
