Ruan Xian Biography [Qing·Nara Queen]

Chapter 66: See You Someday

"Just do your makeup, follow me to visit Concubine Zhu later." Ruan Xian ordered.

"Yes."

In the hall, Ruan Xian and Concubine Zhu sat opposite each other, separated by a small table with only a pot of tea on it.

"Is sister okay?" Ruan Xian was sitting upright, holding the teacup tightly with her slender fingers in her right hand, and the sleeve of her left hand was covering her front, blocking the slightly rippling tea from trembling slightly.

Concubine Zhu turned her head slightly when she heard the words, a look of unnaturalness flashed across her face.

"It's nothing, I'm going to trouble my sister to worry. My sister has been recuperating for the past few days, and the injury has mostly healed. Are you okay, sister?"

Ruan Xian smiled slightly, nodded her chin, and put down the teacup in her hand, "Thank you for saving me that day, my sister is fine, she was just slightly frightened. Don't worry, sister."

Saying this, she knelt down and saluted Concubine Zhu to thank her. Concubine Zhu was fascinated and stretched out her hand, and then put it back. She was a little embarrassed and at a loss for a while, so she had to smile apologetically.

"Sister, I have some beauty and beauty medicines that I have collected on weekdays, but I am not willing to use them on weekdays. Today, my sister just needs them, so I brought them here."

Ruan Xian waved her hand, and a maid came out from behind and presented a wooden box.

The periphery of the box is inlaid with purple jade beads, and a hollow pattern is engraved on the top.Ruan Xian stretched out her hand to open it, and a strong floral fragrance wafted out, rich but not intoxicating.

"Sister, this thing is too precious. My sister can't afford it. It's better for you to use it yourself. My sister also has some, which is enough."

Concubine Zhu reached out to push the box back, but Ruan Xian pushed it back with a smile.

Ruan Xian laughed, "There's no reason to take back the things you gave away. Sister, you can accept it. Treat it as your sister. Thank you for helping me."

Seeing Ruan Xian's insistence, Concubine Zhu couldn't refuse, so she had to take it and put it at hand.

"Sister, I heard that someone recently produced a new type of makeup powder. It looks very matte and the craftsmanship is not bad. It is almost catching up with the tributes from various countries. My sister wants to buy some with my sister in the future. Concubine Zhu waved her hand, and the maid at the side brought up a plate of mung bean cakes, the cakes were square, small and cute.

"But listen to my sister's orders." Ruan Xian did not refuse, picked up a piece of mung bean cake with two slender fingers and put it near her mouth, took a bite and tasted it carefully.

"Your Majesty, Empress Ruan Shu is here. If she insists on breaking in, the servants will not be able to stop her." A servant girl quickly walked up to Concubine Zhu and whispered in her ear.

Ruan Xian watched quietly, noticing the twinkle and anxiety in the maidservant's eyes.As soon as he thought about it, he knew that there was bad news.

Suddenly there was a strange noise outside the door, there was a maid's obstruction, and a woman's angrily arguing.

"Your Majesty has ordered that no one should go in and disturb her."

"There's nothing shameful about it. Why won't she let me in? Didn't I come to see her? Get out of the way, don't delay the business, or you will look good to me." The woman's voice was slightly sharp, and when it was amplified, it was extremely loud. Penetrating power, it sounds very harsh.

Concubine Zhu frowned, holding the teacup in her right hand and sipping tea one after another.

"My sister is in trouble, so my sister will leave first, and I will come to see my sister another day." Ruan Xian got up.

Concubine Zhu hastily stretched out her hand to grab Ruan Xian's sleeve, and said, "Your sister doesn't need it, just stay with me, after all..."

"You really can't go in, please wait, we have already gone in and reported."

The maidservant's anxious voice came out again, already with a bit of crying.Obviously don't know what to do.

Concubine Zhu sighed softly, "Sister Ruan Shu has a heart, I would be grateful if you troubled me to come and visit me. But I already have guests here, and I'm not very good at driving them away. Please forgive me."

After finally hearing the response, Ruan Shu stopped the clamor, but what she got was such an answer, she was unavoidably unhappy, and immediately said bluntly, "My sister came here through hard work, but my sister just refused the door, which makes my sister a little sad. Besides, my sister doesn't mind having guests, so the sisters can chat together, and it's been a long time since we got together."

In an instant, the small mouth curled up, tears swirled in the eye sockets, and with a grunt, they rolled out of the eye sockets and flowed down the cheeks.

From the soft crying at the beginning to the howling at the end, Ruan Shu cried more and more, as if she had suffered a great grievance, and no one understood or comforted her.

"My sister didn't do it on purpose at the time. I don't know why she became obsessed with ghosts. My sister came here specially to visit my sister. By the way, I wanted to ask my sister to forgive me. But my sister is so unreasonable that I won't even let my sister see her once. Hello, sister." It's sad."

As he spoke, there was another burst of crying, his voice was choked, and he kept sobbing, like a child who made a mistake and was locked out of the house by an adult, and now he is admitting his mistake.

This cry was not only that the maid by the door was at a loss, but also didn't know how to speak to comfort her, and she didn't fulfill her duty as a servant in disregard.Even Ruan Xian and Concubine Zhu looked at each other, seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

"I really don't want to cause more trouble." Concubine Zhu kept rubbing the cup with her hand, her eyes were extremely complicated.

"My sister doesn't want to cause trouble, my sister can understand, but if you shut her out like this, choosing to avoid it is also a trouble, not to mention that she is a big trouble. Is my sister planning to end this trouble and ignore it?"

Ruan Xian rested her chin on her left hand, tapped the table with the index finger of her right hand, and looked at Concubine Zhu with great interest.

Concubine Zhu showed an extremely unnatural smile, and said, "Who would have thought that she would come out like this, looking at sister Haihan, hey. Please come in."

As soon as the words were finished, the door was pushed open with a bang, and a figure rushed in, with red eyes and tears on his face.

"My sister is finally willing to see me. How is my sister recently?" Ruan Shu looked around with teary eyes, and finally stopped at Ruan Xian who had been sitting by the side.

Ruan Shu opened her mouth slightly, her surprise was beyond words.

Ruan Xian smiled politely at her, and the corners of Ruan Shu's mouth twitched, but that smile was uglier than crying. "You, why are you here?"

"Why only my sister is allowed to come and see, but my sister is not allowed to come too? They really care about Concubine Zhu."

Ruan Xian's tone was very flat, her voice was calm, she was clearly just stating a fact, but to Ruan Shu's ears it sounded like an extremely sharp sarcasm.

"Are you saying that I'm not sincere?" Ruan Shu snorted coldly, turned her head away and stopped looking at Ruan Xian.

"Okay, both sisters, stop arguing. I appreciate your wishes. Since the two of you are willing to come to my sister today, I can't treat you badly. Come and take a seat." Concubine Zhu clapped her hands, The gentle and quiet voice echoed in the air, as if the voice of Lai Tian wanted to soothe the resentment in people's hearts.

Two small tables were put up, each with some unique desserts in the palace, fine workmanship, high quality, melt in the mouth, very refreshing.

Several maids came forward with wine glasses and jugs. Their pink skin, delicate appearance, and those slightly timid eyes would definitely make blood spurt if a man saw it.

Sunlight squeezed in through the cracks in the curtains, and the slightest breeze blew the curtains, shining on the golden ornaments in the hall, glowing with golden light.

The banquet, where no one spoke, was going on silently, cups of tea were poured down, and a few symbolic sips of wine were also taken.All kinds of food on the table were wiped out bit by bit, and then served again.

An embarrassing atmosphere spread in the hall, and the oppressive atmosphere began to spread from nowhere.

The little maid standing beside Ruan Shu gradually felt her legs and feet go weak, and she couldn't help trembling while holding the plate.

nervous!Why nervous?

Before entering the hall, she listened to the chatter of her sisters in their free time after work, and learned from those few words that it was the noble person beside her who disfigured her mother.

If it weren't for her sister's determination, she would never have believed that the heart-piercing empress and the beauty who is now quietly enjoying delicious food have a vicious and indifferent heart under this gentle and kind appearance .

His thoughts were constantly wandering, and he gradually began to wander, his eyes just staring at Ruan Shu blankly, with no expression in them.

"Pour tea." Ruan Shu's impatient voice sounded.The maid turned around abruptly, and Ruan Shu had already placed the teacup in front of her.

"Yes Yes."

The maid was nervous and incoherent, lifted the kettle with trembling hands, and poured out the tea tremblingly.The tea water fell crookedly and splashed out from the cup.Ruan Shu's dress was stained with faint traces of tea, but the maid didn't know it.

The tea was full and overflowed, and poured onto Ruan Shu's hands.

"Ah." An inhuman scream came from Ruan Shu's mouth, and the hot tea left a red mark on her hand.

"Ah!" The maid was also at a loss and couldn't hold herself steady. Her legs softened and she knelt on the ground, and the tea was spilled.

Snapped!A loud slap came out, leaving five red finger marks on the maid's fair cheeks.

"Little bitch, do you mean you want to burn me to death? What's your intention?" Ruan Shu was so angry that she suddenly stood up and kicked the maid who was kneeling on the ground with her feet.

"No, no, my lord, forgive me, this servant didn't do it on purpose, no..." The maid kept wailing, the pain in her body and the fear in her heart made her voice tremble uncontrollably.

"Bitch, do you think I hurt your mother and you insist on paying me back? See if I won't kill you." Ruan Shu refused to let go, and her attacks became more and more serious, and the clothes on the maid's body were gradually stained. blood on.

"Sister calm down, this maid has only entered the palace not long ago, and she is not careful, and she is not very familiar with the rules of the palace. My sister is generous, let her go this time." Concubine Zhu has arrived at Ruan Shu's side at some point .

"Hmph!" Ruan Shu sneered, showing no intention of stopping, and the anger in her eyes remained undiminished, as if she was venting.

Concubine Zhu frowned tightly and took a step to the left to protect the maid.Sensing someone in front of her, Ruan Shu kept kicking the maid's feet and finally stopped.

"I said, that's enough. My sister doesn't have to be serious with a maid. She got the punishment she deserved."

Ruan Shu raised her head and looked straight into Concubine Zhu's eyes, and pointed at the maid lying on the ground: "This little bitch wants to burn me to death, so forget it? You should drag her out..."

Before she could finish her words, Concubine Zhu's voice interrupted her indifferently. Concubine Zhu, who had always been gentle and quiet, finally showed unbearable anger at this moment.

"Ruan Shu, don't push yourself too hard. This is not your bedroom. The owner here is me. No matter who you are, as long as you get here, you have to obey my arrangements." Concubine Zhu leaned down, helped the maid up, and handed it to the side to prepare In the hands of the helping maids.

"I don't care if you are crying and embarrassing, but at the moment you hurt my maid and refuse to forgive me, I have the right to care."

Under Ruan Shu's surprised eyes, Concubine Zhu showed her strong side.

"So, now please get out of here..."

Ruan Shu was driven back to her bedroom by Concubine Zhu, feeling a little angry in her heart, when she entered her room and found no one around, she scolded her personal maid angrily: "This Concubine Zhu really treats herself as a person, thinking that she who is it?"

Ruan Shu's maid heard what uncle would say, and hurriedly pulled Ruan Shu's clothes: "Mother, please keep your voice down, the majesty of Concubine Zhu in the harem... If the partition wall has ears, others will know it, I'm afraid..."

The little girl was very clever, and she didn't finish her sentence.But when Ruan Shu heard the little girl's words, she lowered her head and thought for a while, and felt that she was really impatient and conspiring, so she sighed and wanted to restore her original demeanor as much as possible.

After a while, Ruan Shu's mood recovered, but she made up her mind in her heart that she would never let Concubine Zhu, this bitch, one day... Thinking of this, Ruan Shu couldn't help snorting coldly, and said nothing more.

"Mistress these days, you'd better be careful," the little maid saw that Ruan Shu's mood had eased back, so she said to Ruan Shu again: "Although Concubine Zhu is not as good as Niangniang in everything, her prestige in the palace is still high. Slightly better than Empress."

"Your Majesty, I'd better restrain myself these days, and save those people who have made trouble, and then make fun of my Majesty." The little maid looked at Ruan Shu as she spoke, fearing that Ruan Shu would get angry and turn her anger on her again.

"These things... I know, but..." Ruan Shu didn't say what she said later, and the little maid didn't ask too much. After all, it's better to know less about these things, so as not to cause more trouble out of thin air, and maybe something happens thing.

These days, Ruan Shu has also learned a lot about the world in the palace, so she won't be like a child who has just entered the world, making noise every day, for fear that others will not know her.

Since such a shameful thing happened this time, it's not good for her to show off in front of everyone. After all, she is also the lady of the Zuo Ling Mansion, and she still represents the face of the Zuo Ling Mansion in the palace. If her father knows , I'm afraid she will be blamed.

Compared to Ruan Shu's desolation here, Ruan Xian is much better. These days, Yuan Li has been by Ruan Xian's side every day. These days, Ruan Xian still has lingering fears because of the previous incident, and Yuan Li is not good at touching her again. .

This time, Yuan Li was dealing with official business in the study, while Ruan Xian was dangling beside him, so Yuan Li was a little dazzled, so he said to Ruan Xian: "Ruan Ruan, stop dangling by my side, my There is no work to be done.”

But Ruan Xian didn't listen, instead she laughed twice, these two laughs almost shattered Yuan Li's soul, she just felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, couldn't hold back the impulse in her heart, but she had no choice but to return I have business to deal with.
