"Miss Lin..." The maid stroked the cheek that Yan'er slapped just now, looked at the delicate and weak Daiyu: "Help me..."

Although Lin Hai's Yinzhen doesn't talk much, he is cautious and calm in his dealings with others. After two years in charge of the mansion, Daiyu was trained by Lin Hai, Lei Momo and others. He was calm and quick-witted when things went wrong, even Lin Hai praised that time: "Yu'er has finally grown up."

"I...I have no other choice, they won't let me go." The maid said to herself stubbornly: "I won't survive today, girl, please help me."

"This is your business and has nothing to do with us. Besides, if we don't help, think about what we can do to help you. This matter can only be blamed on bad luck. I'm afraid no one can save you."

Collapsing on the ground, the maid cried in despair, and Daiyu finally couldn't bear it: "I kindly remind you, in this palace, unless you treat yourself as a mute, because the mute may live a little longer, understand. "

The lady in the palace didn't seem to understand, she still murmured: "Mute..." Looking at the lady in the palace, Daiyu said in a low voice: "In fact, a selfish person like you is not worthy of pity at all, but I can only Remind you of this, as for... you can do it yourself, Yan'er, let's go."

Until turning out of the corridor, there was a faint cry from the palace lady behind, Yan'er said in a low voice: "Miss, will this matter..."

"Remember, no matter who asked, we didn't see or hear anything." Nodding, Yan'er said, "Yan'er knows."

"Since you know it, don't ask again." Daiyu looked at the already dark sky: "Let's go, let's go back."

As soon as Daiyu and Yan'er entered the door, they saw Zijuan leaning against the door frame and looking around. Seeing Daiyu and the others coming back, Zijuan patted his chest lightly: "Amitabha, you are back."

Going up to meet her, Zicuckoo worriedly said: "Girls, why did you come back? I have been waiting here for a long time." Daiyu said calmly: "The bride and groom have talked for a while, you are still ill, go into the house quickly. Rest."

Zijuan is a careful person. Although Daiyu pretends nothing happened, she has served Daiyu for many years: "Girl, why does your face look a little..."

"It's okay, when I came back just now, a cat jumped out of the woods, and Yan'er and I were startled, and my heart is still beating to this day."

Yan'er nodded hurriedly: "Yes, that cat is black, but its eyes are green, it's really scary." Zijuan smiled and said: "Then go into the room and have a cup of hot tea to calm down the shock."

That night, Daiyu slept a little restlessly. From time to time, I recalled the low cry of the maid in her ears. She didn't know what happened in the palace in the middle of the night. Woke up again.

Early in the morning, as soon as Daiyu had finished washing, she heard a few maids muttering outside the window, frowning, Daiyu whispered to Zijuan: "Go and see what they were muttering early in the morning, the fifth princess is a An ordinary person hates nonsense the most."

Before Zijuan went out, Yan'er walked in, her pretty face was a little pale, she glanced out, and said in a low voice: "Miss Lin, something happened in Seventh Princess' Palace last night."

Although Daiyu had a vague expectation in her heart, there was still a sliver of luck, maybe the person involved didn't find out, now that she heard what Yaner said, Daiyu didn't make a sound, she just put the things in her hands on the table: "What's the matter."

Yan'er whispered: "Listen to them, because someone drank too much last night, they set the tents on fire, and there were 9 people in the three rooms, all burned to death..."

Zijuan covered her mouth in horror: "How could this be? Isn't there a mother on duty?" Before Yan'er could say anything, Daiyu said in a low voice, "Why was there no movement in the palace last night?" Yan'er said in a low voice: "I heard that the fire was not big and people were suffocated to death, so there was no publicity."

Daiyu didn't make a sound, but she knew in her heart that the suffocation was nothing more than a person's early death, and she just took advantage of the fire to find a cover.

"They also said that even the nanny would be with them...Miss Lin, do you think they will..." Without allowing Yan'er to say any more, Daiyu said calmly: "Yan'er, as I said just now, the fifth princess hates chewing People with tongues, in the future, when they hear such things, they should act as if they didn’t hear them, don’t think it’s okay to make troubles on your own, and you’ll hurt yourself instead.”

After a pause, Daiyu said again: "Do you remember what I said? One more thing is worse than one less thing. Since you follow me, I won't hurt you. Okay, Zijuan, take that coat for me." Come, let's go see the fifth princess."

Although she said she was calm, in her heart, Daiyu was always restless all morning. Fortunately, everything was calm, as if nothing had happened. It was already afternoon when Daiyu saw Jia Mu.

In a pavilion in Fengzao Palace, the blooming begonias made the surroundings fragrant. Yuan Chun was drinking tea with Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang. I even praised you, saying that you are a worry-free person."

Daiyu met and said politely: "It's all the mother's care, the old lady is in good health." Jia Mu smiled and said, "Okay, but without you girls, it can't be lively anymore."

Mrs. Wang said on the side: "I haven't seen you for a long time. The eldest girl is getting more and more lively. It seems that she is still raising people in the palace." Outstanding, but..."

Without going on, Yuan Chun raised his cup and took a sip of his tea: "By the way, Baoyu is happy to go to school these days." Jia's mother said happily, "Okay, when I came back the day before yesterday, I heard that even the master praised him for his good explanation."

Yuan Chun smiled with satisfaction: "That's good, Baoyu gradually becomes sensible, and the old lady and wife will feel relieved."

Listening to Jiamu talking about Baoyu, Daiyu actually found that the indescribable uneasiness seemed to fade away, and her heart was no longer beating non-stop. Is it because she has grown up, or is it because she was hurt by that incident? Heart, even Daiyu herself can't tell.

Turning her head, Mother Jia looked at Daiyu, smiled and said: "Finally they have grown up, talking about these two Yu'er is really painful and angry. The two have been in love since they were young, but they both like to flirt." , When I was young, I was busy all day persuading this and coaxing that, but now I am better, thinking about each other when I am sensible, no Baoyu once asked me to deliver this string to you, and asked me to tell you Don't be angry about what happened last time, girl Yun is like that, and he's just teasing her."

Yuan Chun didn't make a sound, but just raised his eyes to look at Daiyu, but Mrs. Wang on the other side said slowly: "Young lady is sensible, and Baoyu has a straight temper. If you say something that goes too far, you don't have to worry about it. His temper If you don’t know it, forget it.”

Daiyu said softly: "I know, don't worry, old lady and madam, I didn't take it to heart, please tell old lady and second elder brother, I'm really not angry about what happened that day, he can give this string to whoever he likes to play with." Who plays."

"Brother Bao brought something good again." Baochai walked over with a smile, "I've seen your mother, old lady, madam." Yuan Chun nodded calmly, but Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Bao girl is here."

Yuan Chun said: "Back then, the two of them were the most outstanding in the mansion. The second and third sisters were inferior after all. Unexpectedly, they have all entered the palace now."

Baochai smiled slightly: "It's our good fortune to be able to follow ladies, isn't it, Sister Lin." Daiyu didn't say anything, just nodded lightly.

Jia Mu said with a smile: "Bao girl is sensible and can talk. I believe she must be very happy by her side." Half of her, she wouldn't worry about that."

Baochai smiled lightly: "My aunt praised me again. In fact, compared with Sister Lin, I am still a bit inferior. I heard that my sister's ability to run the government in Yangzhou even convinced my second sister-in-law."

"Both of you can read and write, so no matter which one is in charge of the government, it will definitely be better than Feng girl." Jia Mu said, "Feng girl is good at everything, but she can't read, and she is a little bit worse."

Accompanying Jiamu to talk for a while, seeing the sun was going west, Jiamu and Mrs. Wang also stood up and asked to leave. It is said that it was rewarded by the king of Beijing, and there are many people in the palace. If someone recognizes it, wouldn't it be a bad thing? I also ask the old lady to tell Baoyu that I am really not angry because of the strings. Since sister Yun likes it, let Yun Sister, let's play first..."

The sun was setting towards the west, and there were speckled traces on the winding stone path. Baochai and Daiyu walked side by side, looking at the flowers, branches and green leaves on both sides, Baochai said softly: "It seems to be back to the past. , At that time, the two of us greeted the old lady and returned together, with Zijuan and Yinger chattering non-stop behind us."

Looking up at the still unfamiliar palace, Daiyu couldn't help sighing: "Yes, it was so good at that time, Sister Bao, to be honest, I admired you very much at that time."

"Really." Baochai turned to look at Daiyu, "I thought that with my younger sister's temperament, it should be..."

"Miss Lin, it's great that you're here." A cheerful voice shouted from the corridor, and then Ning Dong rushed over excitedly: "I'm planning to go to Fifth Sister to find you."

"I have seen His Highness the Seventh Prince." In the palace, Daiyu and Baochai rushed forward to salute and waved their hands. Ning Dong said impatiently: "Get up, I hate this the most."

Leaning over, Ning Dong smiled and said to Daiyu: "I made a fun thing today, but after working for a long time, I still haven't untied it. Miss Lin, you're smart, explain it to me."

Daiyu and Baochai made a gesture, and then took the Jiulianhuan that Ning Dong handed over. This Jiulianhuan was very finely crafted, not as simple as usual, but made into a flower basket shape.

He held it in his hand and looked at it carefully. Before Daiyu could speak, Ning Dong couldn't help but said: "How about it, can you untie it?" Daiyu raised her eyes and looked at Ning Dong: "Your Highness, I have never I have played like this, even if I can solve it, it will not be a while."

"Don't worry, I'll just stand by and watch you explain, anyway, I'm fine." Seeing that Daiyu wanted to refuse, Ning Dong said stubbornly: "Miss Lin, don't forget that you still owe me something. If we can’t solve it, Naji and the others will definitely make fun of me. Aren’t we friends? There’s a saying that’s not for a friend…’”

Baochai smiled and said, "Sister Lin, for His Highness the Seventh Prince's sincerity, please do me a favor." Seeing someone speaking for her, Ning Dong smiled and glanced at Baochai: "Are you Which palace, I will talk to the queen mother tomorrow, and I will reward you as a female official."

Daiyu listened to Ning Dong's casual appointment, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled, but Baochai didn't smile, she still said decently: "Thank you, Your Highness Qi." Ning Dong said: "You don't need to thank me, we each take what we need, fair trade."

Knowing Ning Dong's temperament, and in her heart, Daiyu still regards Ning Dong as that fat little boy in Yangzhou: "It turns out that I have become the price tag for a fair deal between the two of you before you know it."

Smiling, Ning Dong naturally came over, pointed to one of the rings and said, "Which one should we get first?"

Although he is three years younger than Daiyu, Ning Dong is half a head taller than Daiyu. In addition to his chubby figure since he was a child, at first glance the two seem to be indistinguishable in size.

The sunshine at the end of spring gradually faded, adding a bit of coolness to the surroundings. A gust of wind blew through and blew a few strands of hair from the corners of Daiyu's ears. Because she was concentrating on getting rid of the ring, Daiyu ignored it, but Ning beside her. Dong carelessly brushed it away.

"No, this one should be at the back." Ning Dong was impatient, seeing Daiyu's unsatisfactory solution, he couldn't help reaching out his hand to help, but he heard someone behind him coughing deliberately, and then said in a faint voice: "What are you doing?" .”

Turning her head, Daiyu saw the queen standing not far away, looking over with somewhat unspoken severity and disdain.

Daiyu hurriedly stepped forward to salute, the queen returned to her usual expression: "Miss Lin, what are you doing." Before Daiyu could say anything, Ning Dong said: "Your Majesty, we are solving the Nine Chains."

"Oh." The queen nodded thoughtfully: "It's hard for the two of you to calm down here and untie your troubles. There is a large crowd, and people come and go, and you are not afraid of being bumped."

Daiyu is a delicate person, so how could she fail to understand what the empress meant, raised her head, and said softly, "Go back to your mother, there are so many people waiting around in broad daylight, I believe no one will touch you." with..."

Looking at Baochai quietly, Daiyu's watery eyes contained a trace of alienation: "What's more, there is Xue Nushi who is beside the empress." look.

Just now when the queen came over, Baochai was going to remind Daiyu, but it happened that Ningdong was doing Daiyu's hair at that time, Baochai saw the flash of anger and disdain in the queen's eyes, and thought of his own embarrassment. The status and the glory of the family did not speak in the end.
