Chapter 118 Half Blind
Xiao Dezi was standing outside the Tongming Palace. When he saw Xu An coming out of the palace, he immediately went to greet him.
"Master, do you still have work to do so late at night?" He didn't ask what it was, he was just concerned about Xu An.
Xu An sighed and took the initiative to say, "Let's go to the Empress' palace to announce the decree. You can come with me."
"At this late hour?" Xiao Dezi was slightly surprised, and then said attentively: "If the Queen wants someone to take a big stick, Xiao Dezi will definitely stand in front of the master."
"I just like that you have good eyes!"
Needless to say, after the Empress received the imperial edict, there was chaos in the palace.
At this time, there was a peaceful atmosphere in Xia'an Palace.
Yun Qin was soaking her feet. The hot air in the hall made her face red and made her yawn.
She glanced at Rong Xin who was still rubbing her arm and said helplessly, "Sister, I'm sleepy, let me go to sleep."
"If you don't massage it properly, you're going to have this arm tomorrow!" Rong Xin said, and stood up again, adding some hot water to the footbath.
Yun Qin couldn't persuade her, so she could only yawn again, lean her head on Rong Xin's shoulder, and close her eyes slightly.
I don’t know what she was thinking about, but a smile appeared on her lips with her eyes closed, “I’m going to see Jing tomorrow, how great…”
Rong Xin lowered his eyes to look at her, sighed secretly, and whispered: "Don't sleep, you will catch a cold if you sleep on the couch."
"I know. If you don't want to sleep, I'll just close my eyes..." Yun Qin said this, but her voice became lower and lower.
"Aqin, Aqin!"
——
Although the queen received the imperial edict, the harem had not yet received the news.
So at the same time yesterday, Yun Qin once again got on the carriage to leave the palace.
The people in the car were still the same ones from yesterday, but unlike yesterday, they all looked much kinder towards Yun Qin.
Especially Xiangtan, who even greeted her.
When she came back last night, she naturally told Shen Danying that Yun Qin and General Shen were familiar with each other.
Shen Daying was shocked at first, but when he heard Xiangtan say that Yunqin called his brother a benefactor, he suddenly understood.
No wonder Yun Qin helped me in front of Lady Su when I paid my respects to her.
It turned out to be because of my brother.
One is a young general who is deeply trusted by the emperor and has a bright future, and the other is a young palace maid who is now trapped in the cold palace and once caught the emperor's eye. Given the huge gap in their identities, Shen Daying would certainly not think of anyone else.
She just thought of Yun Qin's behavior after that. She never took the initiative to talk to her, and even after being sent to the cold palace, she never bothered her. She was so polite and sensible, which made her impression of Yun Qin a little better.
While she was lamenting that the queen was really reckless, she also told Xiangtan, "She is just a palace maid, and she was almost beaten to death by Concubine Su. It can be seen that she had no choice. She didn't know that she had framed me, so you must not make things difficult for her."
The words were still fresh in her ears. Xiangtan had already looked at her with new eyes yesterday, so when he saw her now, he naturally became more friendly towards her.
Looking at her attitude, Yun Qin could naturally guess Shen Danying's attitude. She felt a little relieved and smiled at her.
Although the atmosphere in the carriage was better than yesterday, no one talked much.
I was really too tired yesterday and didn't get enough rest the whole night, so I don't even have the energy to talk now.
Although Yun Qin was tired, she couldn't resist her curiosity about the outside world. When she arrived at a busy place, she couldn't help but lift the car curtain and look outside.
This time Xiangtan did not stop her. Looking at her curious eyes, he suddenly realized that she seemed younger than himself.
Thinking back to the way she stood in front of everyone yesterday, I felt even more impressed.
Noticing her gaze, Yun Qin looked at her and then lowered the curtain.
"No, I don't mean anything else. Just look if you want to." Xiangtan said quickly.
Yun Qin shook her head and whispered, "That's enough."
One look is enough. If you look too much, you will lose control of your heart.
Just like yesterday, before the porridge distribution started, the porridge stall was already crowded with people.
But compared to the chaos of yesterday, today is much more orderly.
When they saw Yun Qin getting off the car, someone in the crowd called her "Fairy Lady".
Yun Qin felt helpless after hearing this.
This time Shen Che did not come, so they could only chop wood by themselves. Yun Qin was not needed this time, and a strong palace maid snatched the job away from Yun Qin.
Yun Qin knew it was because of what happened yesterday, so she didn't say much and just tried to do more other work.
Still cooking porridge and steaming buns.
By the time the porridge bucket was moved to the front, a queue had already formed in front of the porridge stall.
Yun Qin was very pleased about this.
It was just that with all kinds of people in the crowd, it was inevitable that some people would cause trouble, but they were not serious enough and were either driven away by the defenders or beaten away by the victims.
"Aqin!"
Yunqin was eating porridge when she heard someone calling her. She turned around and saw Ah Jing.
"Ajing!" Yunqin immediately shouted excitedly and quickly handed the spoon in her hand to Xiangtan beside her.
"Help me hold it for a while. This is my friend. I want to talk to her."
Xiangtan glanced at the person who came, but didn't think anything was wrong. He took the spoon and nodded, "Go ahead."
Ah Jing was supporting a little maid, and behind her was a strong middle-aged man who was obviously a security guard.
When Yun Qin ran over, she didn't look over, but listened to what the maid said.
It was not until Yun Qin came up to her that she excitedly looked up and called out, "Aqin!" Then she stretched out her arm, wanting Yun Qin's hand.
Yun Qin hugged her excitedly, tears welling up in her eyes, "A Jing, I miss you so much!"
Ah Jing chuckled twice and said, "What do you look like?" At the end of her speech, she choked.
Yun Qin let her go and looked her up and down. Seeing that her face was rosy and her clothes were well dressed, she felt more relieved.
"Come on, let's talk in the back." She took Ajing's hand and walked to the back of the porridge stand.
Because she was too excited, she didn't notice that there was no focus in Ajing's eyes, and she staggered a little as she was pulled by her.
"Aqin, you seem to have grown taller."
When they reached a secluded place, Ah Jing reached out and touched her shoulder, then said with a smile, "She's already half a head taller than me!"
"It seems to be true." Yun Qin chuckled, "I will still grow taller, and I will have to call you a dwarf from now on!"
"You're such a jerk!" Ah Jing grumbled, then quickly said, "It's almost noon. I asked someone to bring you some food from restaurants in the city. You must want to try it."
"Really!" Yun Qin exclaimed in surprise, but she noticed that when Ajing took the food box from the maid's hand, her fingers fumbled in the air.
She was suddenly startled, the smile on her face faded, and she turned pale in an instant.
Yun Qin stretched out his hand hesitantly and waved it tentatively in front of her eyes.
Because of her action, Ah Jing blinked, and the smile on her lips faded a little. She sighed and said, "You found out? I wanted to wait for you to eat something before telling you."
Afraid that Yunqin would worry, she hurriedly said, "I'm not completely blind. I can still see the light and vague shadows, but I can't see them clearly."
She said it lightly, but Yun Qin felt as if her heart was grabbed by someone, and tears fell down.
Without asking, she knew it must be because of the poison she was poisoned with.
Yun Qin gritted her teeth secretly.
Fortunately, she has lived a carefree life for such a long time, but her Ah Jing has been suffering all the time!
The hatred that had been somewhat worn away by the leisurely days now became extremely clear again, even stronger than before.
