Time flies, ordinary days always fly by quickly, in a blink of an eye, Li Jing has already spent seven days in Wuhou Mansion.Yesterday, he received an order from Steward Chen.In order to prepare for the mid-autumn festival with one month left, the lord asked Li Jing to collect the melons, fruits, flowers and leaves needed for the festival.For Li Jing, worshiping the moon is a strange thing. It seems that almost no one worships the moon in her own time. It must not be the Mid-Autumn Festival worshiping the moon. Li Jing guessed, don't worry about it, just watch the fun when the time comes, Li Jing thought.What is needed now is to go to the outskirts to collect fruits and flowers.

Wuli outside Wu County is Zhenze (an ancient name for Taihu Lake). There are many exotic flowers and fruits there. The light fluctuates, layers upon layers of waves, pieces of spray, and continuous ripples.Looking around, there is no limit, water and sky are one, swallows and swallows are flying together, chasing each other, and looking down, there are overgrown algae, intertwined roots, scattered sand and gravel, and flying fish swimming fast.On the shore, weeds are green, flowers are luxuriant, competing for beauty, red like the sun, full of fragrance, butterflies are flying and dancing, summer cicadas are singing and singing amphibiously, it is very lively.

Seeing the scenery in front of her, Li Jing felt relaxed and happy, and quickly assigned people to collect the flowers and fruits needed for offering sacrifices to the moon. Li Jing walked and picked for an unknown amount of time. When she looked up, several people appeared on the lake in the distance. They made noises and approached slowly, and when they looked closely, one of the girls was dressed in the most special way, which was completely different from the others. The other girls were all dressed in white and green, but that girl was wearing red makeup and a golden hairpin, looking like a man. Dressed up, with a long sword in her hand, flying back and forth in her hand.After a while, the woman seemed to have discovered Li Jing, and whispered something to a woman next to her. The woman was about to walk towards Li Jing, but at this moment, a noise attracted everyone's attention. Looking for her reputation, Li Jing found This voice was very familiar. When Li Jing approached, she saw that it was none other than Chen Butler beating the little mute and Taoer.

"You two dead girls, offering sacrifices to the moon is a very important event. My lord, let me see if I have finished collecting all the things I have collected? Is there still time to catch those bugs?" Chen Butler said while beating Tao'er and the others with the wattle that he brought with him. Little dumb.

"Stop it, Steward Chen, you can decide whether to punish after I ask you why." Li Jing stopped Steward Chen's actions.

"Taoer, tell me, what's going on?"

"Sister Jing, look, my basket is full. Just now I saw the butterflies are very beautiful, so... as for the little mute, I only saw that she seems to be picking the flowers under the butterflies." Tao Son cried out with tears in his eyes.

Li Jing looked at the baskets of Taoer and the little mute, they were indeed full. "Chen Steward, you can see that their baskets are indeed full. After the work is done, there shouldn't be any mistakes in the game!"

Listening to Li Jing's words, Chen Butler was very angry. "There's an old saying: 'No rules, no circle'. As a housekeeper for so many years, I have traveled more bridges than you have traveled, and eaten more salt than you have eaten. If there are no rules in everything, wouldn't it be a mess? gone."

"Chen Steward's words are true, but the rules must not be set in stone, otherwise there would be no Qin Zhiwei Martingale reform." Li Jing talked about it using the classical Chinese that she had learned half-studied.

"Okay, well said!"

"See Miss!" Everyone said in unison.

"Miss? Li Jing turned around and saw a pair of talking eyes staring at her. It was none other than the sword dancing girl that Li Jing saw just now. She had red lips, white teeth, delicate eyebrows, and a white cloak. Exude a masculinity that is different from women.

"May I ask who you are?" Looking at the girl in front of her, Li Jing felt that her age would not exceed 16 years old, but she showed a temperament and luxury that did not match her age. Li Jing seemed a little curious.

"Miss Li, you are too young. This is the lord's younger sister, Princess Sun Shangxiang, why don't you say hello when you see her?" Steward Chen gloated and felt a little complacent.

"As the saying goes, those who don't know are innocent. She is also a newcomer. I don't know that the princess is normal, and I see that the baskets of Taoer and the little mute are indeed full. Steward Chen, you don't have to punish Let them go! If you have nothing to do, go back first!" Sun Shangxiang waved his hand.

"Princess, but the lord asked me to supervise. If I go back like this, I can't explain to the lord, the princess..."

"Okay, I'll talk to my brother, you go back first!" Before Steward Chen could finish speaking, Sun Shangxiang directly interrupted her conversation.

"No!" Looking at Sun Shangxiang, Steward Chen left helplessly, and his dissatisfaction with Li Jing in his heart increased a bit.

After Steward Chen left, Sun Shangxiang called Li Jing to the lake alone. Although Li Jing was puzzled, she still followed.The graceful figure is looming on the surface of the lake, becoming more and more beautiful.

"I heard that you are the new female official introduced by Gongjin, and you are from Gongjin's hometown." Sun Shangxiang asked.

"Yes, I don't know what is the purpose of the princess asking me to come here alone?"

"Do you know Steward Chen is my distant relative, why would you dare to offend her?" Sun Shangxiang didn't look at Li Jing, but just looked at the lake from a distance.

Faced with Sun Shangxiang's continuous questions, Li Jing was full of doubts, and thought: Is she here to teach me a lesson?But just now I helped myself again, seeing that she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, would I still be bluffed by a girl who is younger than me?After thinking for a while, Li Jing said neither humble nor overbearing: "I only do what I think is right, and it's not against my heart."

"It's not against my heart. Your personality is a bit like this princess. You are a friend of this princess. To be honest, this princess is very uncomfortable with Steward Chen. After so many years in the mansion, For a long time, relying on being a distant relative of my family, he has been arrogant and domineering. It is said that the former female official seemed to have died of illness because of having a festival with her. And my second brother has always trusted her, and often Just turn a blind eye, I don’t want you to follow in the footsteps.” Sun Shangxiang stared straight at the lake as if he was talking to himself, without looking at Li Jing at all.

Looking at the girl in front of her, Li Jing didn't know how to evaluate her. At this young age, she had a way of thinking that was not in line with others.But at least now Li Jing feels that one more friend is better than one more potential enemy.

"Thank you very much, princess. I'm twenty years old. If you don't mind, you can call me sister Jing from now on. If you think it's demeaning, you can call me by my first name, Li Jing."

"Well, from now on, that little girl will call me Sister Jing. My sister doesn't have to stick to her identity in the future. You can call me Shangxiang or Sister Shangxiang directly." Sun Shangxiang heard Li Jing's answer and quickly turned her head to look directly at Li Jing, with an expression on her face. A smile.

Li Jing was shocked by Sun Shangxiang's sudden performance. Compared with just now, Sun Shangxiang is almost two people. After calming down a little, Li Jing said with a little embarrassment: "Okay...Okay!"
