Return of the Swallow

The person in front was slender, with a beautiful face, wearing a pale pink gauze with a collar, a goose-yellow horse-face skirt, long hair pulled high, a gold-encrusted jade heart in the center, and pure gold tassels hanging down on both sides, following her. Walking slowly, the golden bead tassel also swayed dazzlingly in the sun, making the girl even more dignified and graceful.

This person, Qin Yining, had a one-sided relationship. She had met Li Yanyan, the youngest daughter of Duke An Guogong, when she went to Changchun Mountain with the Demon Empress that day.

The person at the back is delicate and soft, walking with a weak willow and fufeng, raw pink face and peach cheeks, and a clear expression. When looking at people, her beautiful eyes first show a third of shyness, like a cute kitten, which is pitiful. In addition, she wears The magenta plain face makeup Huabeizi made her jade neck slender and snow-white, her long hair black and shiny, and even the white jade head and face on her head would be taken away by her porcelain-white skin.

Qin Yining had never seen her, but she had to praise her secretly, this is the Jade Man from Jiangnan Shui. Compared with her, Qin Yining felt like a rough man!

But Qin Yining didn't know how Li Yanyan and Gu Chang felt when they saw her Yun temples were loose and she was wearing only homely clothes but couldn't hide her complexion.

Li Yanyan gave Qin Yining a salute before she arrived: "Sister Qin, it's been a long time."

"Sister Li." Qin Yining returned the salute to her.

Li Yanyan sighed and said, "I already know what happened to Sister Qin's family. My sister would like to express my condolences."

"Thank you, sister." Qin Yining only smiled and greeted her.

Li Yanyan introduced to her: "This is the eldest lady of the Gu family, her boudoir name is Chang, and her grandfather is the emperor Gu."

"It turned out to be Miss Gu, I'm really rude." Qin Yining saluted again politely.

Gu Chang was flattered and said, "Sister, don't break Chang'er."

Her eyes fell on the palm-sized little white rabbit in Qin Yining's arms, "My sister is naturally beautiful, even if she doesn't dress up, she has an alluring appearance. When she sees her holding a little jade rabbit, my sister really feels ashamed of her 'chang'. name."

Qin Yining felt a little tired, "Miss Gu is wrong. The name taboo carries the expectations and blessings of the elders. Miss Gu is like a fairy, how can she be ashamed of this word?"

Li Yanyan laughed when she heard the words.

She and Gu Chang had met several times before, and although they knew each other, they didn't know each other well, because she felt that Gu Chang was pitiful on the outside, but very hypocritical on the inside, and she didn't like to associate with people with this temperament. Now, seeing Qin Yining face to face, she pushed back Gu Chang's sour words,

Li Yanyan couldn't help feeling a little dark in her heart.

The three of them were talking when the three maids and a group of palace servants filed out of the Yucui Palace.

The head mammy was in her early 40s, and she was white and plump, like a big white steamed bun with a smiling face, and the two maids behind her were a notch lower than her.

Mammy Zhan took advantage of helping Qin Yining and whispered in her ear, "The one at the head is Mammy Jiao, the nurse of the emperor, and the other two are Mammys who teach the rules in the palace."

Qin Yining nodded without a trace when he heard the words.

When the person approached, Qin Yining forced a smile and saluted, "The little girl has seen a few nanny."

Li Yanyan and Gu Chang also saluted.

Who knew that before Qin Yining's ceremony could go on, she was supported by the plump Jiao Ma, "I don't dare to accept the girl's gift."

Madam Jiao instead gave Qin Yining a big gift: "Slave Jiao, serve the girl according to the emperor's will."

Obviously, Jiao Mama's politeness shocked the people next to her. All the people present were very talented. How could they not know what this means?

The emperor sent his wet nurse to personally serve a beautiful girl who entered the palace to participate in the election. Even if the situation in their country is unusual now, the steps for drafting have been severely reduced, and the selection is the draft.

Li Yanyan's eyes were a little complicated.

Gu Chang lowered her eyes and bit her lower lip.

The other two maids also went to salute Li Yanyan and Gu Chang, and they each brought their temporary masters to the Yucui Palace to settle them.

Madam Zhan was only responsible for escorting and picking up people, and now she has no choice but to bow down.

I don't know what the emperor was thinking. He specially ordered Qin Yining to be placed in the main hall of the Jade Palace, and the other two were in the east and west side halls.

When they arrived in the hall, Jiao Ma brought two palace maids and two servants to give Qin Yining a solemn salute.

"The slaves greet the girl."

Qin Yining hugged the little rabbit, sat on the top of the table and received their salute, then went to help Jiao Momo in person.

"Mammy, don't be so polite."

"Girls, don't do this. When the slaves came, the emperor told the slaves. The slaves must serve the girls well, but the slaves never saw the emperor go to arrange others, nor did the emperor care about any woman. Concubine Shu has never been. I know it as a slave. In our hearts, the emperor has only you. Those two are just here to go through the motions and seal the concubine. You are the future queen."

Speaking of this, Jiao Mama smiled and saluted: "The slave is here to congratulate the girl."

The four palace people also saluted: "Congratulations, Miss Hexi."

"I have no talent and no virtue. How can I afford it? Mommy, don't say that." Qin Yining ordered them all to get up.

Madam Jiao pointed at the two palace maids and said, "This is Xing Yu and Fu Xue. They used to serve tea in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the emperor specially assigned them to serve the girls."

The two young palace maids hurriedly kowtowed to Qin Yining.

Madam Jiao pointed at the two little servants who were only twelve or thirteen years old and said, "These are Xiao Yangzi and Xiao Ningzi. These two are Eunuch Lu's apprentices, and they were specially assigned by the emperor to serve the girl."

"Slave and maid, please greet the girl." Xing Yu, Fu Xue, Xiao Yang Zi and Xiao Ning Zi saluted Qin Yining again.

"Forget it, you all get up."

Qin Yining felt a headache every time she heard Jiao Ma's explanation. She didn't know if it was caused by her irritability and resistance, or if her fever was getting worse. Those who can listen to others' manipulations can only say, "I'm a little tired. I want to rest for a while."

"Yes, the dormitory has been tidied up. Just now, Eunuch Lu has gone to ask for an imperial doctor. He can treat the girl later."

Xingyu and Fuxue helped Qin Yining enter the house.

Jiao mama is the commander Xiao Yangzi and Xiao Ningzi to do things.

Xingyu was supposed to wait for Qin Yining to undress, but Qin Yining thought about it, this is not her own home, there will inevitably be entertainment, and it is too comfortable to wear, but it is rude, so she has to refuse, and lie down on the beautiful couch by the window. , put the well-behaved Erbai on his belly, and gently touched Erbai's head with his uninjured hand.

Fuxue took a thin blanket to cover her. She didn't know if she was weak or really tired. Qin Yining's movements slowly slowed down and she fell asleep in a daze.

She didn't know how long she had slept when she suddenly felt a beast staring at her!

Qin Yining couldn't lose the instincts she had cultivated in the mountains for many years. She immediately woke up and opened her eyes, who knew she was looking at an enlarged face.

Qin Yining was startled and pushed the person away, but she didn't want her to use her right hand, but she forgot that she still had an injury on her right shoulder. She pushed a big man to the ground and the wound on her shoulder collapsed. When she opened it, she immediately "hiss" from the pain, no sleepiness at all, and blood gradually seeped out from the light blue clothes on her shoulders.

Eunuch Lu helped up the fallen emperor.

The guard behind him yelled loudly, "Bold!"

Yuchiyan was a little embarrassed, but when she saw the blood on Qin Yining's shoulder, she immediately turned pale and said angrily, "You guys are so bold!
