Chapter 6 Drawing Silk and Peeling the cocoon and Measuring the Beginning
"I said, why is there no one in the yard? It turns out that they are all gathered here!"
The maid in green stood by the pond with her hands and complained with displeasure, "Although Wu Niang is not here at this time, everyone can't be so blatantly lazy and throw everything to me. Unexpectedly, they got together here. I fed the birds and finches alone, and I wiped the tables and chairs in the room by myself. Qiu Shuang found someone to return the glazed bowls in He Ruiyuan, and I could only run errands.
Yingsheng sneered and said, "Who doesn't know that you are the most diligent person? You always like to come in front of Qiu Shuang, and we don't want to compete with you."
Hongyu saw the two maids arguing and quickly mediate: "I shouldn't have missed Sister Cherry. You have been tired for half a day, so you also came to rest and put some pastries on your stomach."
Cherry is not ungrateful: "I'm not as idle as you. I only know how to play with the monthly money in the house."
"You haven't become a first-class maid yet, so you give us orders and don't see if you are qualified. Sister Hongyu is kind-hearted. You even dare to fight her. Do you really think you have to do it?" The warbler replied with a sharp voice. Today, she should have been on duty with the cherry. She came to the lotus pond with the red rain, and everything in the house fell on cherry. Therefore, as soon as she heard Cherry's words, she felt that she was coming for her. Of course, she was not angry.
Hongyu laughed and said, "Sisters, don't hurt your harmony for this little thing. Don't say a word. Sister Cherry has been busy for half a day, and it's inevitable that she will be a little anxious, but you don't mean to be lazy, but even if you are busy, the five ladies are generous, and they won't be harsh..."
What a smart person, this is not talking about peace. It is obviously to stand against the cherry and the maids and say that she is too harsh. Yijing sneered. She still knew something about Hongyu and knew that she was a little proud in her bones. Rely that she was the granddaughter of Mother Song, and her father was the general manager, and she felt superior. However, in her previous life, she appreciated Hongyu's nature very much, which also led her to give orders to her subordinates to save her own peace of mind.
I don't have any impression of this cherry. I think she has offended the red rain, and she must not stay in Luqingyuan for a long time.
She also heard her say, "This is Lvqingyuan. It's not your turn to be a maid of Songtao Garden to point out. How can the five ladies be discussed privately? Does it become harsh to scold subordinates for not doing business? You are just a domestic slave, can you just think that you are not a slave?
What a fierce maid! Yijing said secretly, and looked at Cherry more. Seeing that she was still with her waist crossed, her eyes staring at Hongyu seemed to be very disdainful, and she couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Who doesn't know that Hongyu is the granddaughter of Mother Song. She is most flattered with her. Why doesn't this cherry buy it? Is there any other settlement between the two?
Since Hongyu entered the house and became a maid, how could she suffer so much? Even if she was full of calculations, she was still a girl in her early ten years old, and her Taoism was still shallower. At this time, she also blushed and hid her smile. Her eyes flashed with a vicious edge: "Sister Cherry taught me a lesson, but we are both slaves. , why is there to embarrass each other?
"Little hooves really don't know what's good or bad!" Yingsheng was full of wanting to please Hongyu, and immediately "spoken righteously": "Do you really think you have become a first-class maid? Be your daydream! Don't think that you can wait in front of Chunmu and Qiushuang. You don't know that when Chunmu comes out of the cabinet, the red rain sister will be transferred to Lvqingyuan to fill the gap. It's your turn to be a first-class maid? Don't pee and take photos!"
Hearing this, Chunmu's hand trembled again, but Yijing didn't want to hear it anymore. He turned around and walked back: "It's not quiet here. Let's go back to the room."
Yu Zhou also immediately followed and said with a smile, "The maids in the fifth sister's yard are really lively and have all kinds of temperaments, but I see that the red rain is a very deep city. At a young age, you can be happy and angry. If you are loyal to your master, it's okay. If you have other intentions, the fifth sister is still It's better to be careful."
The beautiful scenery was so surprised that she even forgot to hide it and looked sideways at Yuzhou.
He actually asked her to guard against the red rain? It's really... unexpected.
Yu Zhou misunderstood the meaning of Jing's surprise. A pair of phoenix eyes slightly raised, with a proud smile on the corners of her mouth: "The fifth sister thought that the maid just said that it seemed that neither side was offended and tried her best to persuade her, but in fact, it made the sound more and more annoying. Thinking about it, she hated the maid who accused her in her heart, and then The fifth sister may not have noticed that when Hongyu finally said that, her tone seemed to be nothing, but the look in her eyes made people feel cold. I'm afraid this maid is not simple.
is indeed not simple, let alone Yu Zhou. At this time, a 14-year-old young man can be able to observe. No wonder his stupid self in the last life could not see through his true face and stepped into the trap he laid step by step.
Yi Jing smiled sweetly: "Brother Zhou is really sharp-eyed... But it's just a few maids who fight fiercely. Can they still turn the world upside down? I like the saga with red rain.
"Smart people naturally like smart people. Besides, even if she is a little smart, she dares not show off in front of her fifth sister." He immediately turned the wind, and Yuzhou flattered him.
She is smart, but I am the most ignorant one in the world. Beautiful scenery thought sarcastically and turned to Chunmu and said, "I think the cherry is really powerful. Who doesn't know that Hongyu is the granddaughter of Mother Song. The maids in the mansion are all flattering her. How could the cherry dare to contradict her face and sweep her face? Is there a harder backer than Mother Song behind this cherry?
After hearing the comments of the maids and died of shame and anger, Chunmu has been worried all the time. She was stunned and said, "She is also a child from the family. I used to drive for the old country, called Dong Lin. The year before last, I was infected with cold and died. Dong Lin's daughter-in-law is now working in the flower room, and there is also a brother on the cherry. Now that there is a little man in the accounting room, he runs errands to collect the monthly account book in the village. There is no backer.
Yu Zhou couldn't wait to show off again: "The fifth sister doesn't know that some people themselves have a straightforward temperament. Even if they know that they will suffer losses, they can't help but feel angry. It is often said that brave and resourceful refers to this kind of people. Not to mention a maid who doesn't understand big words, even some well-learned people have repeatedly committed crimes, just like there is a dynasty. The head of the Qing official department of the Ministry of Ceremonies is just a sixth grade, and there is no real power in his hand, and there is no backer behind him. He dares to challenge Jin Xiang and angrily scolded Jin Xiang for following selfishness at the court meeting. As a result, he was picked up and demoted again and again. First, he was the deputy supervisor of Yuanma Temple. Now I don't know which county he is in the master, and then If you degrade it, it won't go into the stream."
Chunmu is a kind person. Although she can't understand the difference between the chief of the Qing officials and the deputy supervisor of Yuanma Temple, she probably understands the meaning of Yuzhou. She can't interrupt the political affairs, but she doesn't need to hesitate to say a few good words for Cherry: "Cherry is a diligent person. She is also slang. She was transferred from the sewing room before the year. Even if she was a red girl, she was too straightforward. It is said that she also collided with Luo everyone before, so she couldn't stay in the sewing room. Her mother begged Mother Yang many times before entering the Green Qingyuan. The maidservant looked at her and was also kind to the little maid below, that is, the sound of the warblers of the same room. There is some discord.
"Is the sound of warbler used to be lazy?"
"In Luqingyuan, she is also quite old, so some jobs often instruct the little maids to do. I have also said that she has changed a lot on the surface several times. After all, she is still not as diligent as Cherry."
"One is honest and willing to work, and the other is cheating and slippery. No wonder the two are at peace." Yijing thought for a moment and asked, "Is Luo everyone's grandmother Hongyu?"
"Exactly, I want to say that Luo's family and Cherry's mother still live in the same yard." Spring twilight answer.
No wonder Cherry has this attitude towards the red rain. It turns out that she really has old grievances, but if the cherry records the red rain just because of her hatred for everyone, the maid's mind is not pure and clear, and the scenery is secretly thinking.
While talking, he unconsciously returned to the room. Because of Yuzhou's sudden visit, Lijing didn't want him to enter his bedroom, so he asked the maids to go to the small hall behind the partition of the hall. The two sat in a chair and tasted tea and talked.
The King of Chu's Mansion and the Duke's Mansion of Wei are neighbors and relatives. They are really good at home. Yuzhou is a regular guest of Lvqingyuan, and they are also familiar with the maids. They don't treat themselves as outsiders at all. They call their sisters attentively to Xia Yun and Qiuyue Qiushuang. They ask for tea for a while and fresh fruit for a while. After a while, I had to drink the sour plum soup with ice, which made the maids of the scenery turn around.
He also talked about some interesting things in the Guozijian, which created a very lively atmosphere in the tea hall.
Yi Jing listened without saying a word, and finally felt a little impatient, so he interrupted him and asked, "How are Uncle Chu and his second uncle?"
"Good..."
"How are your aunt and second aunt?"
"There is no big problem..."
A slight pause: "Brother, how are you?"
A little stunned: "Big brother's body is just like that. Grandma is worried when she mentions him, but he still doesn't stop."
What does this mean? Yijing was about to ask in detail. Yu Zhou seemed to have no desire to mention the son of the king of Chu. While opening the topic, his happy expression suddenly stopped: "Something happened to my family, and it was very noisy... Today, I came here to visit the fifth sister, and the other was also to hide in silence."
Wing Jing had to follow his words and ask what had happened.
Yu Zhou sighed briefly: "I don't know what my father thinks. It has been more than ten years since he raised an unknown man outside..."
This is new! Yijing was slightly surprised. In her impression, the general of Zhenguo was a serious person, not a person. Although the house also took in a concubine, he was still the master of the old princess. In his previous life, he only knew that his feelings with the general's wife Xie were very harmonious, and he had never heard of rumors of raising prostitutes outside.
"Don't be unfounded rumors outside?" Yijing said for granted.
"My mother heard about it and quarreled with my father day and night. My father couldn't help admitting it and said that she had a daughter. She is 11 years old this year." Yu Zhou looked very annoyed. He used to have a pair of bright phoenix eyes, and at this time he also shrugged listlessly.
......
"Grandmother asked her father and said that he was named An Jin."
Yu Anjin? How is this possible? In the memory of 18 years of the scenery in the previous life, there is no such person at all!
But without waiting for her to ask more carefully, the first goodbye to Yuzhou in the next world was suddenly interrupted, and the little man of the Duke of Zhen asked someone to bring in -
"Erlang, go back to the house quickly. I heard that his wife found the house outside the general and took his servants to make a scene. The general was so angry that he came back and slapped his wife in the face and said that he would take the mother and daughter outside to the palace. The wife was so angry that she took Sanlang back to the Duke of Zhenguo."
Yu Zhou was helpless and went back in a hurry.
Yi Jing was deeply shocked. While asking Qiu Yue to inquire about the unexpected event of the King of Chu, he thought about today's conversation with Yu Zhou.
At this time, he did not seem to start planning a conspiracy. He did not seem to be open to himself, let alone collude with Mother Song and Hongyu, but the scenery is still uncertain, because in his previous life, he had already experienced Yu Zhou's cruel and hypocritical methods.
In her previous life, she never took the initiative to talk to Yu Zhou about the son of the king of Chu. There was no way to know whether Yu Zhou had a grudge against the prince, but what he said today was obviously not very friendly to the prince. Suddenly thinking of the ten-year-long Lantern Festival night, when the world's son died, when she questioned Yu Zhou why he deceived her and gave her the poison that killed her, Yu Zhou said excitedly--
"Yes, I hate him and want him to die! Everything he had should have belonged to me. It was he who robbed me of the title that should have belonged to me. He robbed you... Yijing, you never had him in your heart, and there was only me in your heart... He had already died. He should have died with Princess Chu when he was five years old!"
At that time, she was so distracted that she couldn't taste the meaning of this sentence carefully, but now she wants to...
is really difficult to understand.
If Yuzhou can say that he became the prince's concubine because of the empress dowager's marriage, why would he say that the prince of Chu robbed him of his title?
Dalong Lilu stipulates that the title can only be inherited by the eldest son. If there is no direct son, the concubine must be approved by the emperor, and Yuzhou is not even the son of a concubine of the king of Chu, but just a nephew!
Although according to the emperor's letter to the king of Chu, if the prince does not rule, he will definitely allow the king of Chu to inherit the son of the general of the country and inherit the title, but after all, this is not legal, but a holy grace, not to mention how ridiculous it is for the son to take away the title of Yuzhou.
Why is Yu Zhou so vibrating?
And why did you say that the prince of Chu should have died at the age of five? Why did you say that the prince should have died with the princess of Chu!
Didn't Princess Chu die of illness? Is there something strange about the son of Chu who has suffered from illness since he was a child?
When this idea flashed through my mind, the scenery suddenly stood up from the chair!
If Princess Chu died of her life... The disease of the son of Chu is due to poisoning... It's Yu Zhou...
No, it's impossible. The son is four years older than Yuzhou. When Princess Chu died, Yuzhou was just a baby.
Yi Jing shook her head and couldn't help laughing at her whims.
But suddenly realized--
Yuzhou could never design for himself at this time, because he was still 12 years old, far from the age of marriage, and his grandmother and his parents had no intention of marrying to the King of Chu. Yu Zhou could not be uncertain. At this time, he designed to deceive his trust and use his own poison. The conspiracy to kill the son can clearly make it clear that Mother Song has begun to take action, otherwise she would not have deliberately designed to marry in the evening of spring and arrange the red rain to come to her side.
Isn't Mother Song originally not because of Yuzhou's bribery, but other intentions?
There seemed to be something that was ignored by myself, but my thoughts were so chaotic that I couldn't find the clue to solve the mess.
Maybe we should start with the cause of Princess Chu's death.
Imagine, if Princess Chu died of poison and the son's illness is also man-made, then who will be the murderer? Of course, it can't be Yuzhou, but he is the beneficiary.
The answer seems to be ready to come out...
But if the truth is true, why does the world only know that Princess Chu has died of illness?
Or because of the royal secret, the truth is hidden. It is very likely that the grandmother stopped talking before she got married in her previous life...
Grandma should know something. She thought silently and planned secretly in her heart.
To solve these doubts, we must start with the secrets in the king's mansion of Chu. Unfortunately, I was confused in my previous life and didn't think about these things at all. In the king's mansion of Chu, I was sad that I couldn't be open with my favorite people for two years.
Once again, I am happy to be reborn.
No matter who is hidden behind this conspiracy and how many people are hidden, we must find a way to catch them all and stop the prince of Chu from living in shadows and threats. This is the only thing I can do for him and the only thing I can make up for.
Maybe it is the only reason for my rebirth.
So now...
No matter why Mother Song is deliberately trying to gain her trust, naturally she can't get what she wants, but about Hongyu, it's better to let her stay by her side. How can she rest assured to stay with her defenseless eldest brother? What's more, if you don't give her a chance, how can you understand what their purpose is?
Although too many doubts can't find a breakthrough, there is still a mess in Yijing's mind, but she gradually has a clear plan.
"Spring dusk!" Suddenly raised a voice.
Spring dusk was stunned in the corridor. He suddenly heard the master's shout and stood up in a panic. He subconsciously touched his face and his palm was wet. He quickly took out a silk handkerchief to wipe away his tears, adjusted his breathing, and then entered the room. He looked up and saw Yijing sitting in a carved sandalwood chair in the small hall, with a slight smile on the corners of his lips and a pair of black paint. The lacquered eyes were still as clear as usual, but Chunmu suddenly felt that the bottom of the little master's eyes was flowing with her indivisibility, which seemed to be as deep and cool as an ancient well.
I was slightly stunned.
"Come and sit down. I have something to ask you." Yijing did not hide her maturity beyond her age. She decided to let Chunmu stay by her side and fight side by side, so there is no need to make Chunmu feel that she is still a childish and sad girl. First of all, Chunmu should trust her so that she will not doubt and waver in her orders in the future.
"Five Niang... I dare not..." Chunmu hurriedly declined.
Yijing didn't say anything, but just stared at her quietly. It's not difficult to see the red corners of her eyes in the evening. Have you cried? Why? Don't you actually want to marry far away? This is the best, so as not to find a way to convince her. I can't say that I know that you will die within a year after marrying Hai, so you'd better not marry.
The master and servant were slightly deadlocked for a while. Chunmu finally couldn't stand the silent pressure. He blessed his body and sat sideways on the brocade pier beside him.
But I heard a slight sigh from the beautiful scenery——
