Pearl in the Palm - Chapter 23
When it was noon, someone suddenly came to the palace. It is the court lady next to the queen.
It is said that Empress Ti got the best bird’s nest. She thought that Ye Lizhu was poor and sent it to help Ye Lizhu. Not only that, Empress Ti also gave Ye Lizhu a court lady. This maid knows a little bit of medicine, and the queen is worried that Ye Lizhu will not be able to call the doctor one day. With this maid, he can also be rescued.
Ye Lizhu naturally couldn’t refuse.
When things are received, people have to do so.
The lady of the palace sent by Queen Ti was named Hai Tan. She was eighteen or nine years old, with slender eyes, fair skin, tall and elegant, and she had a face when she took it out.
Hai Tan saluted Ye Lizhu: “Miss.”
Ye Lizhu helped a little: “It doesn’t take so much etiquette.”
She couldn’t figure out why the queen would send someone over, but Hai Tan looked like a clever rule. After Ye Lizhu asked a few words, she asked the little maid to take Hai Tan to get acquainted with Ye Mansion.
At noon, Ye Lizhu went to Ye Fuan’s residence to ask for peace.
Ye Fuan likes to be in the study, and most people can’t enter his study. Even if it is the Wu family, they all stand outside the study and let the young man go in and pass the news.
Ye Lizhu arrived outside the study and was about to go in. The young man stopped her: “Miss, let the young one pass the message to the master first.”
Ye Lizhu smiled faintly: “Go.”
The young man just went in and told Ye Fuan that the young lady was coming, and Ye Fuan scolded the young man immediately, saying that it was the young lady who came in the future. There was no need to stop him and let people come in directly.
Ye Lizhu held Yusha’s hand and walked in: “Father.”
Ye Fuan put down the brush in his hand: “Zhuzhu, sit down, your complexion is much better today.”
Ye Lizhu said: “After all, I returned home. The queen’s lady came from the palace just now and gave some golden swiftlet nests. This is the second thing. She also gave me a maid.”
Ye Fuan was a little surprised: “Lady of the palace?”
Ye Lizhu said: “It is said that this palace lady knows a little bit of medicine, and she gave it to me for the sake of my body.”
Ye Fuan touched his beard: “I will ask about the origins of this maid in the next day. The queen can’t harm you. Although the motive is unknown, she has no reason to treat you badly.”
Ye Lizhu also understands this relationship.
The reason why I told Ye Fuan was to avoid accidents.
After she went back, a maid waited at the door early: “Miss, the third princess sent someone to send an invitation card, saying that it is tomorrow night to see the lantern at Prince Chen’s Mansion, and I want you to see it together. The maid said to wait. You will make a choice when you come. The sister who sent the invitation is busy with things, and she left without waiting for you to come, leaving only the invitation.”
Ye Lizhu woke up refreshedly today, also feeling good.
It’s not bad to go for a walk and play with girls of the same age.
She said: “Keep the invitation card first, and remember to remind me tomorrow.”
The little maid responded.
Ye Lizhu entered the room. She sat on the soft couch she was accustomed to sitting on and read a book. When she looked dizzy, the curtain was moved, and the pearls came together to make a crisp sound. Ye Lizhu immediately became sober.
She turned her head and saw Hai Tan approaching with a tray.
Hai Tan said: “Miss, the servant girl asked the kitchen to stew bird’s nest with rock sugar. You can try it.”
Although Ye Lizhu didn’t have any appetite, the bird’s nest was given by the queen, and Hai Tan was the queen’s person, so she had to give it to the queen’s son.
She gently stirred the crystal clear bird’s nest with a spoon: “The empress is really interested.”
In the mist, Ye Lizhu’s lips were stained with the bird’s nest, and Hai Tan said to the side: “Miss don’t have to be on guard. The slave and maid will be loyal to whomever she is following. Now she’s a lady, if she is dissatisfied, Just beat and scold.”
The taste of the bird’s nest is not bad, Ye Lizhu tasted two more mouthfuls, and the lips became more moist and bright red. She said: “I usually don’t punish people easily, just do my duty.”
Hai Tan is a servant in the pi, and he is loyal to King Qin. Ye Lizhu is the person that His Royal Highness Qin looks after. Hai Tan naturally wants to match King Qin with Ye Lizhu.
After all, King Qin is not too young anymore. For ordinary men like King Qin, children will go to buy alcohol.
Not surprisingly, King Qin will reorganize the people and leave the capital tomorrow. Hai Tan knew that Ye Lizhu had met with King Qin. She looked at Ye Lizhu’s appearance and guessed that the little girl has no distracting thoughts and can’t remember people, so she wants to be here. In front of Ye Lizhu, mention King Qin more, lest she forget about them.
“The maidservant must remember what the maidservant said, and do things in peace in the future.” Hai Tan said, “As long as the maidservant can accommodate the maidservant, the maidservant will always wait for you.”
Ye Lizhu nodded: “Tomorrow night the three princesses invited me to watch the lanterns at the Chen Palace. You have been in the palace for a long time, and you must have known the three princesses and the other ladies. I don’t know them well. I will take you with you. Be prepared.”
Hai Tan was startled.
Tomorrow night, Miss will leave Ye Mansion?
Haitan knew that Tixiao was not in a hurry to leave tomorrow, and there was nothing serious about going back one day late. Hai Tan took it down in his heart, thinking about writing a secret letter to pass it over later.
This day passed quickly, and when he went to bed at night, Yusha was usually with Ye Lizhu in the room.
Yusha suddenly found that Ye Lizhu’s quilt had fallen to the ground when Yusha got up at night. She hurried over to pick it up and re-covered Ye Lizhu.
The candlelight was dim, and Yu Sha vaguely felt that Ye Lizhu’s face was not normal, her face was flushed, and her expression was a bit painful.
After hesitating, Yusha called Haitan who was resting outside.
Hai Tan whispered: “Miss must have had a nightmare and was caught by Nightmare.”
Ye Lizhu was indeed caught by Nightmare. She could clearly hear Haitan and Yusha talking, but she couldn’t move at all.
Hai Tan took the veil and wiped the sweat on Ye Lizhu’s forehead. She whispered, “Miss, you wake up.”
Ye Lizhu’s shoulder was gently shaken twice, and finally opened his eyes.
She was drowsy for a long time before she spoke: “I just had a nightmare.”
Dreaming of being entangled in the body by a water ghost, both feet are entangled, the chest cannot breathe, and the whole person feels very uncomfortable.
Hai Tan poured a cup of tea, held Ye Lizhu’s shoulder, and gave her a sip.
The tea was slightly cool, and Ye Lizhu felt a little awake after touching her lips.
Hai Tan said: “Miss is fine during the day, why did she have nightmares at night? Did you do nightmares before?”
“I will do it before. This is normal.” Ye Lizhu said, “Jingshui Xuan is next to the water. I have dreamed of water ghosts these two times. I think there is a problem with this place. If I have time, I will live in another yard. .”
Hai Tan knows a little bit of Feng Shui, she can tell. Ye Lizhu’s residence is excellent in Feng Shui. Although he is leaning against a pool, he does not attract evil things.
Ye Lizhu felt a lingering fear when he remembered the dream just now. It is too real.
She rubbed her eyebrows lightly: “Those monsters seem to really appear in front of my eyes, and they really make me see them.”
Hai Tan patted Ye Lizhu on the back: “Don’t be afraid, I am here.”
There is also King Qin. Hai Tan was sent by the King of Qin, so how could it hurt the future mistress?
Ye Lizhu was slapped on the back by Hai Tan, and inexplicably remembered her mother. She closed her eyes and fell asleep again.
Two hours ago, Hai Tan had already let out the carrier pigeons, and the secret letter should have been in King Qin’s hands, and he would know that King Qin could not leave tomorrow.
The next day, Hai Tan went out to see if the homing pigeons had come back. She had to do this secretly, so yesterday she took advantage of the dark night to let go of the homing pigeons away from Jingshuixuan, and today she naturally went to the place to wait.
The carrier pigeon did not come back, and Hai Tan walked back because he was afraid that it would disappear for too long to make people suspect.
Walking to a remote place, Hai Tan heard the voices of two women.
One of the women said: “It’s really hard for you to call your husband in a hurry this time.”
“It’s not hard, it’s my honor to be able to do things for my wife.”
The two women went farther and farther, Hai Tan hid in the dark and looked at them. They were all dressed up as ordinary people in the palace. Why did one of them call the other a husband?
Hai Tan felt that there was something strange, but when she first came to Ye Mansion, she didn’t know much, so she couldn’t speculate randomly.
If the matter has nothing to do with Ye Lizhu, Hai Tan also doesn’t bother to take care of it.
Because Ye Lizhu had a nightmare at night, she was embarrassed throughout the day. In the evening, she let the maid wait on the makeup. Since she got the invitation from the third princess, she didn’t say anything in advance, so naturally she still had to go once.
Ye Lizhu also had some unrealistic thoughts in her heart.
What if I could meet that man again?
The more uncomfortable her body is, the better she can feel that man.
It’s so comfortable to be with him.
Hai Tan combed Ye Lizhu’s long hair. Her hair was dense and long, clean and beautiful, and anyone who saw it wanted to touch it.
King Qin’s vision is indeed good, except for Ye Lizhu’s weak body, his appearance and temperament are all pitiful. Bringing such a young girl back to Xianzhou will definitely make everyone feel a good match.
Ye Lizhu looked at her pale pink lips, her complexion was not good, and the color of her lips was also light.
She dipped a bit of rouge and drew lightly on her lips.
After the application, the lips immediately looked charming and dazzling.
Ye Lizhu pursed her lips slightly, making it look better.
Hai Tan twisted the hot veil, and was taken aback after raising his head.
Ye Lizhu’s lips were already full, and she was particularly eye-catching. Now she was coated with a layer of rouge, which made her a little less pure and a little more temptation.
It’s too coquettish.
If His Royal Highness King Qin did not leave the capital, and if His Royal Highness King Qin could see Ye Lizhu later, would he really be able to resist not kissing her full and moist lips?
Hai Tan shook his head.
While she felt that Tixiao had a clear heart and would not hold a woman in her arms at will, she also felt that Xiaolizhu was so beautiful. If Tixiao was really interested in her, she was afraid that she would not be able to restrain herself.
Ye Lizhu said to Hai Tan: “Do you know what the temperament of the three princesses are, and what are the intersections between her and Prince Chen’s Mansion?”
Hai Tan reacted: “The third princess is not favored, she is just an ordinary girl. Wang Chen does not favor the prince or the second prince. The princess of the Chen Palace heard that it is not easy to get along with.”
Ye Lizhu raised her finger and wiped her lips: “Is it too gorgeous?”
Hai Tan pressed Ye Lizhu’s hand: “No.”
If it is really gorgeous, let King Qin wipe it for her.
