Chapter 135 The Maids in the Palace Are on Strike (5)
The next day.
It was already bright.
Shen Fanli got up a little later than usual.
The sky was blue, the clouds were light and the wind was blowing. The leaves in the yard were shaking in the wind and a few leaves fell to the ground.
She thought about what happened last night and her face still felt a little hot.
Since she got up in the morning, she has not gone to Song Liaoye's yard and has been staying in the room.
The maid Jing'er also asked her, "Sister Fanli, are you feeling unwell today?"
Shen Fanli heard the little girl's worry, coughed lightly, and said, "Yes, a little."
Then he said, "If anyone in the mansion comes to look for me today, please tell them that I am not feeling well."
"If His Royal Highness Prince Qi asks about my sister, will you answer in the same way?"
Song Liaoye would indeed ask about Shen Fanli's whereabouts if she left the house or was missing for a whole day.
Shen Fanli snorted softly, so softly that the people outside the door couldn't hear it, "Same answer."
Shen Fanli usually takes good care of Jing'er and treats her like a younger sister. Jing'er is also very grateful to Shen Fanli and gets very close to her and tells her everything.
Seeing that Shen Fanli was not feeling well today, "Should we ask a doctor to come and see her, Sister Fanli?"
When Shen Fanli heard this, she raised her voice immediately. If she asked a doctor to come, she would be so embarrassed. "No need. I was just scared yesterday. It's nothing serious. You can go and do your work. You don't have to stay at the door all the time."
Jing'er didn't think much after hearing this, "Sister Fanli, I'm going to do my work first."
Shen Fanli responded in a low voice, "Well, go ahead."
At lunch time.
Shen Fanli was having his meal in the room.
To some extent, her living expenses and daily meals were indeed more refined than those of some officials' daughters.
If she had not strongly requested that the maids be withdrawn, there would probably be several maids in her garden who were dedicated to serving her.
Even so, there would still be two maids in Shen Fanli's garden besides her. They were specially sent by Song Liaoye to be used by Shen Fanli when she needed something.
For example, running errands, passing messages, etc.
He said that she shouldn't be overworked.
In fact, Shen Fanli has basically nothing to do in his daily life.
When I have nothing to do, I play chess with King Qi, or make some cakes, chat with people, etc.
It's all very easy.
And they are all related to King Qi.
In Prince Qi’s mansion, everyone knows Miss Shen Fanli.
Even the subordinates of Prince Qi and the housekeeper of the palace all showed respect to Shen Fanli.
Shen Fanli was about to have a meal when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.
It was quite far away, so I couldn't hear clearly.
But the voice seemed a little familiar, Shen Fanli asked, "Jing'er, what's going on outside?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was opened.
"Sister Fanli, the prince is here."
Song Liaoye waved his hand and said, "You can go down."
"Yes."
Jing'er bowed slowly and retreated.
Song Liaoye simply lifted up his robe and sat down at the table, looking at the silent person.
Asked: "What are you eating?"
Shen Fanli didn't answer, so Song Liaoye said to himself, "What porridge are you drinking? But the servants or the kitchen are being slack on you!"
As he finished speaking, Song Liaoye's eyes became a little gloomy, and his brows became sharp because of his guess.
Shen Fanli saw that Song Liaoye's expression suddenly changed. He put down the spoon in his hand, making a crisp sound in the bowl.
She felt a little helpless and pursed her lips, "No, no one is slacking off on me, it's your own fault."
After saying that, he pointed to the wound on his lower lip.
After hearing what Shen Fanli said, Song Liaoye also remembered what happened last night. His ears inevitably began to turn red again. The sharpness in his eyes faded, and his usually rebellious look now showed a bit of clarity and cleanliness.
Like a beam of bright light.
He asked, "Does it still hurt?"
His voice was slightly hoarse, and his clear eyes stared at Shen Fanli quietly, as if he was looking at someone very important.
His eyes were extremely focused.
It is hard for any woman not to be distracted when looking at Song Liaoye's face up close. Song Liaoye's handsomeness is well-known throughout Shangjing, and he is known as the number one young master in Shangjing.
Of course, this refers only to his appearance.
He has excellent bone structure, a face carefully carved by the Creator, eyebrows like ink painting, and skin as white as fine jade. The young master is full of vigor and vitality, and is extremely eye-catching.
More beautiful than a woman's face.
If she were a woman, she would undoubtedly be the most beautiful woman in the capital.
Shen Fanli's fair face gradually turned slightly red at this time, and she slowly looked away.
Her heart began to beat violently, as if it was about to jump out of her body.
Responded: "...kind of."
Song Liaoye licked his teeth and laughed muffledly. When he laughed, the unique arrogance on his face was very obvious. Unlike the smile in front of other people, he showed his teeth when he laughed in front of Shen Fanli.
He had a small canine tooth, which would show when he smiled at Shen Fanli. Shen Fanli just thought it was cute.
Song Liaoye suddenly changed the subject, "Guess what I brought back for you."
Shen Fanli pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Well, the pastries from Zhichun Shop."
She liked to eat the pastries from Zhichunpu, and Song Liaoye would bring them to her sometimes when he returned to the palace, and this had been going on for many years.
Zhichunpu has been open for many years.
"You guessed wrong," Song Liaoye stretched out his right hand from behind his back like a magic trick, and in his palm was a small porcelain bottle. This bottle looked very valuable. It was the ointment used exclusively by the royal family. Song Liaoye handed it to Shen Fanli, "It's the ointment..."
He glanced at Shen Fanli's bitten lower lip and said, "Didn't you bite it last night? I wiped it for you."
Shen Fanli was drinking water. He choked and coughed a few times when he heard the words.
Song Liaoye stood up immediately, frowned, and patted Shen Fanli on the back, "Why are you so careless?"
Shen Fanli waved her hands. Her eyes were a little watery due to coughing, making her pair of glass-colored eyes look hazy.
Song Liaoye paused for a moment, his gaze fixed on her face.
Her eyes were sparkling, her lips were red and her teeth were white, with marks on them from where he had accidentally bitten them.
My heart softened slightly.
He quietly took out a golden hairpin and put it on Shen Fanli.
Song Liaoye's movements were not very skillful and he even hit Shen Fanli's head, so it was hard for her not to notice.
She knew what Song Liaoye was doing to her head, but she couldn't see it.
Shen Fanli turned his head and asked, "What is it, Your Majesty?"
Song Liaoye smiled and shook his head, asking her to look at the dressing table herself.
Shen Fanli came to the dressing table. Through the bronze mirror, she saw a golden hairpin. It was totally not a piece of jewelry that a maid could wear. It was really an overstepping of her authority.
Shen Fanli's pupils dilated slightly, and she was about to take it off, but Song Liaoye reached out to stop her, "Why are you taking it off? Don't you like it?"
Shen Fanli shook her head. "This hairpin is too extravagant. It's not suitable for me to wear."
"Why not? I think this hairpin is perfect for you."
Song Liaoye pointed at the beauty in the bronze mirror and said softly, "Very beautiful."
After saying that, he also straightened Shen Fanli's hair.
"Okay, this is a gift from the king. No one dares to say anything. Just wear it. Besides, it's not just one or two pieces. If something big happens, the king will support you. Don't worry."
