Chapter 149 Xia Yun's Tips
the next day.
When Yun Qin woke up, it was already bright. Her head was still a little dizzy, but her body was no longer as heavy as it had been yesterday.
She stretched out in the warm quilt and touched the slightly cold soup pot at her feet.
It was obvious that she slept for a long time.
When Yun Qin's outstretched arm touched the other pillow, it stiffened slightly, and she suddenly remembered that she had actually woken up in the middle of the night.
Earlier, when the night watch maid came to wake up Hawking Chi, she was a light sleeper and woke up earlier than Hawking Chi.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the enlarged face of Hawking Chi. She was startled and realized that she was curled up in her arms.
Feeling him move, Yun Qin immediately closed her eyes, then pretended to turn over, rolled out of his arms, faced the wall, and shrank back to the inside.
Because she couldn't see, her senses were magnified.
She could feel Hawking Chi hissing slightly when he stood up, and she knew without thinking that she must have numbed his arm.
Yunqin's face felt a little hot and she couldn't help biting her lower lip.
After that, Huo Jinchi didn't move for a long time, as if he was staring at her for a while, which made Yun Qin feel a chill on her back.
After a while, he laughed in an ambiguous tone.
Yun Qin felt even more uneasy after hearing this. She felt like he had figured out that she was pretending to sleep.
Afterwards, Hawking Chi got up, opened the thick curtains and went outside, but the rustling sound of him washing could still be heard.
Yun Qin could still hear him whispering to the palace maids not to wake her up and let her sleep well.
After it became quiet outside, Yun Qin's tense body finally relaxed.
I was very confused as to why I ended up in his arms. I thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out and ended up getting myself into a slumber.
I have been sleeping since then.
Yun Qin covered her face with her hands. How embarrassing...
However, people's ability to adapt is still very strong. Compared to the discomfort she felt when she got up from the bed yesterday, today she can already stretch comfortably.
There are also benefits to not being attached to your bed.
She was still daydreaming aimlessly when she suddenly came to her senses by Xia Yun's call.
"Is the girl awake?"
"Awake." Yun Qin responded quickly.
Xia Yuncai opened the curtain and walked in, asking in a low voice: "Miss, you feel better now, do you want to get up or lie down for a while?"
"I, I'm much better. Thank you, Aunt Xia Yun." Yun Qin propped up her arms and sat up from the bed, "Let's get up."
Xia Yun immediately walked up to her, put a piece of clothing on her, and tried to help her up.
Yun Qin was still a little uncomfortable with being served like this, so she quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Aunt, I can get up by myself."
"Miss, you are still weak. I'm afraid you will fall." Xia Yun took the opportunity to hold her hand.
Yun Qin had no choice but to help her stand up. As soon as she stood up, she felt dizzy and closed her eyes immediately.
Her behavior startled Xia Yun, who quickly held her and said, "Young lady, please sit down."
Yun Qin could only sit back on the bed. Xia Yun took the pillow from the couch, placed it behind her waist, and let her lean against the head of the bed.
"Aunt Lao."
Yunqin thanked her with a pale face.
"Miss, please don't say that." Xia Yun looked at her with a smile and said, "Miss, your status is different now, and you should learn to adapt. We know that you have a good temper, but others will think that you are weak and can be bullied."
What she said was still light. If others saw her being so polite to the palace maids, they would not only think that she was weak and could be bullied, but also that she was petty and not presentable. They would probably say behind her back: "A servant is a servant. Even when I am the master, I still act like a servant."
Yunqin understood that she was giving her some advice, and thanked her sincerely, "Thank you, auntie. Yunqin has learned a lot."
Xia Yun did not refuse the thank you, but accepted it with a smile.
She was the head aunt in front of Yu, and she had her own dignity, so of course she could accept this thank you.
Be polite when you should be polite, and be rude when you shouldn't be polite. This way you can be neither too far nor too close to your master. How to grasp this balance is also a science for being a servant.
Yun Qin naturally understood the reason and could still feel Xia Yun's sincerity, and the smile on her face deepened.
Xia Yun ordered someone to come in and give Yunqin a simple wash. He also changed the hot water bottle under the quilt to a hot one, and then asked her if she was hungry.
Yun Qin didn't have much appetite after waking up. She shook her head slightly and then thought of Huo Jinchi.
"What time is it? Has the Emperor not come down from his morning court yet?"
Xia Yun said, "The court has ended. The emperor went straight to Yu's study to discuss matters with the ministers. He told the young lady that if she wakes up and is hungry, she can eat and doesn't need to wait for him."
It turns out she slept for so long.
Yunqin's face was a little hot, "I, I'm not hungry yet."
Since it was already this hour, she asked again, "Why don't you see Sister Rong Xin?"
"Rong Xin is personally watching over her as she prepares the medicine for you."
Yun Qin's eyes flashed, and seeing that Xia Yun had no unusual expression, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
This was before, when Sister Rong Xin had to personally supervise the preparation of the medicine, which seemed like she didn't trust them.
Sister Rong Xin would understand this principle, but she still did it because the previous poisoning of Ajing had left her with a deep psychological shadow, so she had to be careful with what she took.
"The medicine should be almost done by now. You should eat something first so that you can drink the medicine later."
Yun Qin did not refuse and nodded slightly, "It tastes very bland in my mouth. I don't want to drink the porridge. Let's have the Tremella and Lily porridge."
As a boss, sometimes you can't have no demands at all.
"Okay, I'll tell someone to do it for you right away." Xia Yun responded with a smile and left.
Yun Qin watched her leave and pulled the quilt over herself, covering half of her face.
With a different status, there are naturally more things to consider. She hasn't even been promoted to the throne and hasn't faced the concubines in the harem, but she already feels like she's walking on thin ice.
She wanted Huo Jinchi to urge the empress to repair the Yanning Palace as soon as possible.
The sooner you move there and form your own team, the more at ease you will feel.
Rong Xin then came over with the medicine. Seeing her, Yun Qin felt much more relieved. After drinking the porridge, she took the medicine.
"Since the young lady has not rested yet, I will have someone bring the things in." Xia Yun said after she saw that she had finished drinking the medicine.
"What is it?" Yun Qin asked vaguely with a candied fruit in her mouth.
Xia Yun's smile widened a little. "The Emperor ordered the eunuchs to move the girl's dressing table and boxes and other things here, so that the girl can be more convenient in the future."
Yun Qin's face froze when she heard this, and then she reluctantly pulled the corner of her lip.
There is no need to think so carefully...
Seeing that she had no objection, it naturally meant that she agreed. Xia Yun clapped his hands, and the eunuchs came in carrying things, which turned out to be the dressing table and other items from the side hall.
Following the eunuchs in was Xiao Dezi. He lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Yunqin, and his tone did not reveal familiarity. He asked in a low voice: "The emperor said to let the young lady take a look. If there is anything else you need, please tell me and I will go and get it for you."
Hearing him calling her a slave, Yun Qin sighed inwardly.
This was the first time Yun Qin had met Xiao Dezi in these few days. Not to mention him, he had never even seen Xu An.
Huo Jinchi didn't like having too many people around him, and since she was in the inner hall, Xu An rarely came in either.
"I don't see any shortcomings now. If there is a need in the future, I will send someone to tell my father-in-law." Yun Qin remembered Xia Yun's words and no longer tried to shirk.
It also gives Rong Xin an excuse to contact Xiao Dezi so as to avoid attracting attention.
Xiao Dezi understood what he meant, raised his eyes slightly and gave Rong Xinchun a look before responding, "Yes, I will take my leave now."
