Empress and concubine

Zhao Yicai woke up after squinting for a while. Seeing that Chu Yao was still asleep, she didn't call her, but just quietly looked at Chu Yao's sleeping face.

Chu Yao is getting older now, and her brows and eyes are gradually opening.Chu Yaoyuan grew up in the south, her complexion was fairer and more delicate than others, her eyebrows were like willow leaves, her lips were crimson, and her hair was as black as ink.Looking at it, Zhao Yi stretched out her hand unconsciously and touched Chu Yao's eyes. Although she could only see Chu Yao's long and thin eyelashes now, Zhao Yi knew what happened to those eyes when they opened. hook people.

Just looking at it like this, Zhao Yi felt a little distracted. If she changed into the canonized auspicious clothes, or put a smear of cinnabar on the center of her eyebrows, and smiled annoyedly, it would make people lose their minds.Even if he just draws the corners of the eyes longer with a pen, and then opens them, just one look can make people willing to die for her.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yi laughed silently, with a hint of nostalgia.

The curtain moved slightly, and Zhao Yi's expression froze. When she saw Ziyan coming in, she eased her expression. She rubbed her temples with her hand and whispered, "But it's almost time?"

After receiving Zi Yan's affirmative answer, Zhao Yi stretched out her hand and pushed Chu Yao beside her, "It's time for Yao to get up."

"Hmm..." Chu Yao opened her eyes in a daze, and when she saw Zhao Yi, she closed her eyes again, and rubbed against Zhao Yi's arms.

Zhao Yi was a little funny when she saw it, so she signaled Zi Yan with her eyes to keep quiet, and waited for Chu Yao to turn around.

Although Zhao Yi was considerate, but Chu Yao only spent an extra flick of her finger before she woke up. She withdrew from Zhao Yi's arms without changing her face, and when she saw Zi Yan standing aside, she just nodded, "Ask them to come in and serve you." Bar."

After hearing this, Zi Yan moved closer, pulled the key beside the bed, a series of bells rang outside, and then two teams of maids came in.

It didn't take much effort for Zhao Yi and Chu Yao to tidy up, because there was still some time, Zhao Yi thought about going out for a walk, or asking someone to invite Xia Yunjing and Wan Nei to come over. It's already in the door.

Hongzhu didn't wait for someone to pass it on step by step. After all, she was already serving by Chu Yao's side, so there were not so many rules. However, after serving for so many days, Hongzhu was so rude for the first time.

Hong Zhu's previously combed hair was not so docile, her face was still faintly sweaty, her breathing was uneven,

Seeing this, Chu Yao frowned, "How did you make it look like this," she said to Huaying, "Bring a cup of tea for your sister Hongzhu."

Huaying took the order to go, Hongzhu saw it, and said, "Master, please worry about it." He looked at the maids serving around, and saw that they were all close, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "Princess, master, I have something to report. "

Chu Yao tilted her head, and pointed to a stool for her, "Look at you, let's sit down and talk."

After hearing this, Zhao Yi just played with the teacup in his hand and didn't say anything.Just glanced at Jin Yi, Jin Yi smiled and said that there was still something to do, and led a few girls to the outside room, where only Zi Yan served, even Hua Ying came back with tea, but was also stopped outside. called in.

Hong Zhu thanked again, and then sat down carefully, "Just now someone in the front yard revealed the letter, saying that when the prince and Wan Neishi were talking in the study, they became so angry that they even smashed their favorite Duan inkstone. There was an opening. When I returned to the inner courtyard, there were two servant girls."

Zhao Yi paused, "What did you find out?"

"Back to the princess," Hong Zhu hesitated, "Because the matter is secret, no one knows what the prince said to Wan's servant, but the prince is in a bad mood, and Wan's servant is not quite right, so he returned to the yard and started to pack his bags. , said that after saying goodbye to you, he was about to go on the road, the prince didn't say anything after hearing that, he just ordered a team of people himself, and sent off Wan's servant when the time came."

Seeing that Hongzhu's expression was wrong, Chu Yao exchanged a look with Zhao Yi, "If you know something, just say it, now that you are the person next to me, even if someone wants to do something, it may not succeed."

Hongzhu pursed her lips when she heard this, and looked at Chu Yao quietly again, before saying, "I guess, the waiter Wannei told the prince about what I said the day before yesterday."

After hearing this, Zhao Yi put the teacup in her hand on the table, only to hear a 'bang', which made Hong Zhu tremble.

"You said 'that thing'? What is it? Why don't I know?" Zhao Yi had a smile on her face, and her tone was warm, but that was not so natural for Hongzhu, "You Although you came out from the palace, but now you are serving by Yao'er's side. Your every move is Yao'er's face. Last time I asked you to go to Xu Yushi's office to learn the rules for a few days. Forgot everything? Look at the sweat..."

"Sister," Chu Yao interrupted Zhao Yi, and glanced at Hong Zhu, "She also made a mistake in her busy schedule, so let her be spared this time," Chu Yao smiled, "It's just that Hong Zhu is young Light, my memory is not very good, my sister was not there the day before yesterday, so of course my sister doesn't know what you said, "

As Chu Yao spoke, she looked at Zhao Yi again, "The girl went to do something for me the day before yesterday, and I heard that there were rumors about the great auspiciousness in the south, and I don't know if it's true or not, so I didn't tell my sister," she said. , and asked Hongzhu again, "What you want to say, Hongzhu, is this?"

Hongzhu's hand holding the hem of her clothes was slightly tighter, and her expression became better, "Master, it's exactly this," he said again, "Because this auspiciousness was created by His Royal Highness, and people say that His Royal Highness was appointed by His Royal Highness." Come on, you should be enthroned as emperor as soon as possible."

After Hong Zhu finished speaking, she left her seat and bowed to Zhao Yi and Chu Yao, "It's all slaves who have lost their minds. After hearing the news from the front yard, they made wild guesses, and I ask the princess and master to punish them."

Zhao Yi managed to get an explanation, even if it was far-fetched, it was fine, so she didn't say any more, just looked at Hong Zhu's sweat, and said with a smile, "That's all, just remember not to do it again." He said again, "It's hard for you to run away all this time, and you suffered a lot of grievances here, and you didn't even have a sip of tea. Go out and change your clothes and have a rest."

Seeing that Hongzhu followed her words, Zhao Yi put on a serious face, "This is because I know the reason, and my mind is alive again. I entered my house and wanted to be loyal to other masters... Heh," Zhao Yi looked at Chu Yao, "If you hadn't stopped me, I should have killed a chicken now."

"Whoever kills or not, I'm not afraid of bad luck." Chu Yao glared at Zhao Yi, "I've only been with you for a few days? You can expect her to be single-minded. Didn't you tell you to suppress it this time? You'll be free in a few days." , teach her well, not afraid that she will be unfaithful."

"It's fine if you are successful," Zhao Yi said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to eat well for dinner today, Ziyan, you can send Xu Yushi, Qian Gongren, to come and serve me. I'm not in good health, and Yaoer is still young , don’t join in the fun.”
