Chapter 388 Another Chief Steward Pei?
Chapter 388 Another Chief Steward Pei?
The originally quiet atmosphere was suddenly destroyed by the little kid's words.
The two adults looked in the direction Xiao Yining pointed.
Not far away, a woman was standing on a carriage and dancing lightly and gracefully.
This person had a veil on her face and wore a semi-transparent white dress. A silver bellyband was faintly visible under the clothes. As her limbs twisted, she emitted a beautiful silver glow under the moonlight. Her inky black hair fluttered in the wind. There were golden bells tied around her ankles, which made crisp sounds in the silent night as she spun, which reached the ears of the three people.
Little Yining's eyes widened in admiration, and he exclaimed sincerely, "How beautiful!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the dancing beauty seemed to be startled by the child's voice and fell down on the carriage. Her white dress, which was not properly put on, slipped down to her arms, revealing her shoulders. What was even more strange was that her bellyband also fell off and was held tightly against her chest by the woman's hands.
Xiao Yining: ...What is this, is this a scam?
Li Anhe glanced at the emperor and said sympathetically, "I will not disturb the emperor."
After saying that, she turned around and left, holding her little granddaughter.
After the two people disappeared.
Sheng Jingchen frowned, rubbed his eyebrows impatiently, looked at the beauty in the car with disgust, and shouted coldly, "Ashi, this female ghost scared me, I made her into a beauty drum."
A figure flashed behind the emperor, and the next moment the woman disappeared without a trace.
The next day, a skinless corpse wearing a silver bellyband was hung on a tree beside the official road without any warning, causing the officials and their families passing by to scream frequently.
Little Yining, who knew nothing about this, was confused when he heard the noise.
But the next moment, she sat obediently beside the emperor, eating the cool pastries made by the imperial chef with her mouth puffed up.
Little Yining curiously stole a glance at the emperor's pure and aloof expression, then quickly looked away.
Sheng Jingchen was amused by the little kid's appearance and curled his lips. "Qing Jie'er, your mother has to take care of several children. I'm afraid she can't take care of you. Do you want to live with your uncle in the palace?"
As soon as these words fell, the kid's eyes began to roll around, thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
She could no longer escape the task of accompanying her naughty child to study.
Fortunately, during the conversation between her uncle and Pei Dafu, she intended to summon all the children under the age of ten to study in the palace, so she was not the only one who was unlucky.
Her mother did have to take care of several children, but they were all quite worry-free. Not to mention the evil Wang Gungun, just take Hu Ge'er. I heard that he obviously treated himself as a butler in the past two days, and even his fellow villagers were well taken care of by him.
Qingshan Jun taught Tiger Brother well and he is quite good at serving people.
Thinking like this, Xiao Yining once again secretly glanced at her uncle. The conversation between him and her grandmother last night was still ringing in her ears. She had to be on guard...
The little kid's gaze made Sheng Hongtong, who had been staring at her, furious.
He glanced at his father fearfully, then stared at the little kid and said, "Father, she can't live in the palace. If she makes a scene at night and asks for her mother, you have to send her out to find her mother."
When the little kid heard this, he immediately made a decision and turned to the emperor and said, "Uncle, I want to live with grandma."
Sheng Jingchen nodded in agreement and raised his eyebrows, saying, "In that case, Uncle will arrange for your grandma to live closer, so that Sister Qing can come to the side hall faster."
Xiao Yining: ...
Xiao Yining: …………
That's not right!
When they arrived at the gate of the palace, little Yining realized that she had been tricked by her uncle again. She had to live in the palace no matter what, it was just a matter of distance.
The palace is only slightly smaller than the Imperial Palace in Yanjing, and it also has places to accommodate officials and provide them with leisure activities, which will not disturb the emperor at all.
Of course, if they do it deliberately, they can still meet the emperor unexpectedly.
Because of her words, her grandmother's residence was moved from the official residence to the emperor's activity area.
When she learned about this, she couldn't help but "admire" her uncle's cunning, and even her eyes looking at her uncle became a little resentful.
Of course, this is something.
At this moment, after two days of travel, they finally arrived at the palace.
The eunuchs and maids who were originally guarding the palace had been waiting at the door early. When they saw the emperor's arrival, they all knelt on the ground and shouted loudly, "Welcome, Your Majesty."
Sheng Jingchen held little Yining in his arms, got off the dragon chariot in front of everyone, and said lightly, "Stand up."
With a word of "Thank you, Your Majesty", the leading old eunuch stood up, walked to the emperor, and said warmly, "It has been a long time since I have seen Your Majesty."
Sheng Jingchen smiled, "Butler Pei, you are still so strong and healthy."
Manager Pei?
Little Yining looked up at Pei Dafu in surprise, and seeing that his eyebrows did not move, she turned to look at the old eunuch.
This sight made the little kid stunned on the spot.
The man had a face full of wrinkles and looked very old. He did not resemble Pei Dafu at all. What shocked the little boy was that he was missing an eye and an ear.
This Chief Steward Pei also noticed the little kid in the emperor's arms. He first looked at the Second Prince on the ground, then back at the little kid. He then revealed an obscene smile of satisfaction, "It has been a long time since I have seen Your Majesty get close to a woman."
Xiao Yining: ...
