In the evening, Yun Qi sent someone to deliver the news, saying that the doctor he had invited had already gone to Ji's Mansion, and General Ji was fine.
After hearing the news, Bai Yanqing breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself: Grandpa will be fine.
Ever since Bai Yanqing entered the palace, she seemed to be isolated from the rest of the world! The only people she saw every day, apart from the people coming and going in the palace, were the women in the harem who were fighting each other all day long, and... those generals
Princes and princesses who are arrogant and proud.
Bai Yanqing is looking forward to getting out of the palace as soon as possible and staying away from the place of right and wrong as soon as possible. But... Bai Yanqing doesn't cause trouble, and the right and wrong never bypass her!
The next day.
The sky was dimming, and it was rare for Bai Yanqing to wake up early. When she was fully dressed, she opened the door, and what she saw was still the few palace people who walked by occasionally with their heads down, and the empty palace.
patio.
The autumn wind has been blowing all night. When I got up early, the ground in the courtyard was already covered with withered yellow leaves. But the palace servants would rather hide in the corner and be lazy than clean up these fallen leaves.
clean.
Bai Yanqing raised her feet and walked out. The dead leaves under her feet made a rustling sound, adding a bit of vitality to this slightly depressed courtyard.
In the corner of the wall, there was a pile of dead leaves that had been wetted by dew and trampled to pieces. They were stuck to the ground and looked particularly unsightly. Bai Yanqing waved her hand, trying to attract the two palace maids who were hiding in the corner.
Call me forward.
The two palace maids were suddenly noticed by Bai Yanqing, and there was a hint of reluctance on their faces. However, they still had to take a step forward and walked slowly to Bai Yanqing.
Seeing the two palace maids in front of her despising herself so much, Bai Yanqing showed no trace of annoyance on her face. She spoke softly and asked them to clean up the dead leaves in the courtyard. After all, if these rotten dead leaves,
If someone steps on it accidentally, it is extremely easy to slip.
Perhaps it was the first time they were summoned by Bai Yanqing, and the impatience in the eyes of the two palace maids was not concealed at all. Perhaps they were secretly complaining about Bai Yanqing's troubles!
"Don't want to clean? Huh?"
Bai Yanqing was neither annoyed nor resentful, she just stared at the two people in front of her quietly and asked a question in a nonchalant manner.
The two of them remained silent, but their raised heads showed that they were secretly competing with Bai Yanqing at this moment.
"Yuan Li, go and summon all the people from Qiyun Palace to the front hall. I have something to say."
Bai Yanqing caught a glimpse of Yuan Li walking towards her not far away. Then she raised her voice and shouted towards Yuan Li.
Yuan Li was ordered and nodded, his face still showing emotions.
Bai Yanqing was too lazy to pay attention to the two palace maids in front of her. If they wanted to remain in a stalemate like this, they could just remain in such a stalemate! Anyway, they couldn't remain in a stalemate for long!
However, in less than half a stick of incense, Yuan Li "called" all the palace attendants in Qiyun Palace. Rather than calling, it would be more appropriate to say "catching". In the final analysis, Qi Yun Palace
The palace servants of Yundian didn't have any respect for Bai Yanqing at all. Yuan Li shouted for a long time, but they all refused to answer. Yuan Li was helpless, so he took action and brought them all over!
In the front hall.
At first, after they came in, there were a few bold ones who cursed and cursed, but they did not pay any attention to Bai Yanqing, who was sitting above them. The rest of the people, seeing that Bai Yanqing remained silent, just thought she was a soft persimmon, so they responded.
They followed up and made a lot of noise, saying they wanted to teach Yuan Li a lesson for his rudeness. As they spoke, they rolled up their sleeves with an arrogant attitude, as if they wanted to hit Yuan Li.
Yuan Li was not afraid at all. She held her sword in front of her chest, as if she wanted to fight.
"Yuan Li, if anyone comes forward, you will kill him. If the sky falls, I will bear it for you."
Bai Yanqing gracefully took the tea bowl handed over by Cai Xing and said to Yuan Li calmly.
Bai Yanqing's words shocked a few timid ones. However, those palace servants who tried to continue provoking Bai Yanqing did not seem to be afraid of Bai Yanqing. They relied on their strong bodies and reached out to grab Yuan Li's hand.
The sword inside!
Yuan Li seemed to have some scruples, he only retreated and dodged, but never actually drew his sword.
Bai Yanqing frowned slightly when she saw that Yuanli was at a slight disadvantage. With lightning speed, she quickly stepped forward and poured the scalding tea in the teacup in her hand towards those people! Then, she quickly pulled out Yuanli.
The sword in his hand took advantage of his unpreparedness, and the tip of the sword "swished" in the air a few times, and then... everyone heard, a louder wailing sound, resounding through the sky!
After everyone came back to their senses, what they saw was the sword in Bai Yanqing's hand. The sword was stained with blood! The red blood dripped along the tip of the sword and dripped to the ground drop by drop, making it very dazzling.
!
"Yuan Li, you disobeyed my order."
Bai Yanqing glanced at Yuan Li coldly, without any warmth in her eyes.
"Master, forgive me, it was my subordinate's fault."
Yuan Li also realized at this moment that she had done something wrong. She was Bai Yanqing's guard, so she should obey Bai Yanqing's orders. She should not hesitate or weigh too much.
After Bai Yanqing threw the sword in her hand back to Yuan Li, she sat back down unhurriedly. She did not let Yuan Li get up.
At this moment, there was a deathly silence in the hall. The people who were wailing just now had already fainted from the pain. Bai Yanqing showed mercy after all. She didn't kill them, she just scratched them with her sword.
It's just the arm.
"Caixing, it's time for breakfast."
Bai Yanqing didn't even raise her head, she spoke calmly and said to Cai Xing.
Cai Xing withdrew in response, and then, not long after, breakfast was served. The steaming millet porridge and the overflowing fragrance of rice added a bit of warmth to the cold room.
Cai Xing turned a deaf ear to the scene in front of her, as if she was used to it. She even walked up to Bai Yanqing, stepping on the blood on the ground, and carefully filled the porridge and set out the side dishes for her.
"Miss, today's porridge has been cooked for a longer time, making it softer and glutinous. Eat more, and you won't be afraid that it won't be easy for you to digest."
While Caixing was serving Bai Yanqing, he was talking to her. Both the master and the servant seemed to have forgotten about the palace servant who was kneeling on the ground.
Bai Yanqing responded lightly and swallowed a mouthful of side dishes slowly.
Such a scene seemed extremely weird! Bai Yanqing was eating her breakfast elegantly, and Cai Xing was waiting on her side with a smile. It was obviously such a picture of peaceful time, but... what was in front of them was those...
The palace servant knelt on the ground and was shivering.
After Bai Yanqing finished her breakfast and asked Cai Xing to put away the dishes, she seemed to suddenly think of those people.
"What? Why are you still kneeling down? Are the fallen leaves in the yard still waiting for me to sweep them away?"
Bai Yanqing spoke unhurriedly, as if she was not the one who asked these palace ladies to kneel just now. However, the fact is that Bai Yanqing did not open her mouth to ask them to kneel.
Upon hearing these words, the palace officials kowtowed and retreated as if they were receiving a general amnesty.
"Did I let you two go?"
Bai Yanqing glanced coldly at the two maids who had previously confronted her and refused to clean the courtyard.
When the two saw this, their legs were so frightened that they became weak. With a "pop", they knelt down on the ground again, and then kept kowtowing to admit their mistake.
"Since you don't look down on Qiyun Palace, then I can't force you to stay."
Bai Yanqing glanced at Cai Xing, who understood, and immediately... grabbed the broom at the door and swept those two people out!
The broom in Cai Xing's hand was not eye-catching, so she swung it around randomly until the two of them were kicked out of Qiyun Palace. Then, Cai Xing domineeringly threw away the broom in her hand and clapped her hands without hesitation.
Yes, he closed the door of Qiyun Palace!
"Bang"
With a heavy slam of the door, the palace servants who were cleaning the fallen leaves in the courtyard were shocked to the point of trembling. Previously, they only thought that the mistress of Qiyun Palace was as easy to fool as the eldest prince.
Stupid, now it seems...they are indeed shallow!
"Yuan Li, these two lying on the ground, you throw them into the courtyard without calling in the imperial doctor. If they refuse to wake up, just let them be exposed to the wind and rain and rot in the courtyard."
Bai Yanqing looked at Yuan Li, who had been kneeling on the ground for a long time without moving. She still felt sorry for her in her heart. So she opened her mouth and gave Yuan Li a step down.
When Yuan Li heard Bai Yanqing calling him, he was stunned at first and did not react.
"Idiot! Why don't you get up quickly? Miss, you are being forgiven!"
Cai Xing hurried forward and pulled Yuan Li up. He did not forget to pat the dust on his knees for Yuan Li. It was obvious that Cai Xing truly treated Yuan Li well.
"Yes! I will throw them out now!"
After Yuan Li came back to his senses, he hurriedly responded. Then, he picked up the two people on the ground and threw them out. The force was so strong that even Cai Xing smacked his lips!
"Do you think she eats so much food for nothing?"
When Bai Yanqing saw Cai Xing, she looked like she had never seen the world before and couldn't help but give her a rollicking look!
"Then it seems that I will leave more food for Yuan Li from now on!"
Caixing nodded vigorously, and she didn't know whether she was confirming Bai Yanqing's words, or whether she was confirming that she would give Yuanli more rice in the future.
"Master, did Yuan Li... let you down today?!"
After throwing the two people out, Yuan Li turned around hesitantly and spoke with some guilt.
"indeed."
Bai Yanqing did not deliberately conceal her thoughts in order to take care of Yuan Li's emotions. Although Bai Yanqing cherished Yuan Li, she also wanted Yuan Li to understand that the order he accepted was a death order, and he should not hesitate for a moment.
have!
A qualified guard accepts orders and executes them, rather than... giving birth to those unnecessary considerations!
"Miss, Yuan Li has just arrived, so don't argue with her, okay?"
Cai Xing grabbed Bai Yanqing's arm and begged her pitifully. Previously, Cai Xing didn't want to see Yuan Li, but now, Cai Xing started to be a good person!
"Okay, okay, okay, I don't blame her! I just don't want her to be hindered by unnecessary thoughts."
Bai Yanqing looked at Cai Xing helplessly, then waved her hands to signal them to go down.
Caixing knew that Bai Yanqing had calmed down, so he dared to pull Yuan Li away.
In the small kitchen, there was still the breakfast that Cai Xing had reserved for Yuan Jun. A few unique side dishes and a few oversized steamed buns.
"Yuan Li, please don't be resentful towards the young lady. My young lady has such a temper. You will know it if you stay with her for a long time. My young lady is the most kind-hearted in the world.
, the most gentle and considerate young lady!”
While Cai Xing was pulling vegetables for Yuan Li, he was talking to Yuan Li with admiration in his eyes.
Kindhearted? Yes!
Gentle...well, maybe!
Consideration, that's something... right?
Yuan Li was chewing the steamed buns and thinking to himself!
