C120 extra Kai-En (1/2)
Zhong Miao Yi's eyes were filled with tears. She knew that at her age, there was really not much time left for her to live a good life. She had originally wanted to bring her out a long time ago, but all sorts of things delayed her.
”Aunty, you don't have to do this.” She quickly went to help Aunt Yang up, ”It's Miaomiao who came late. I made Aunt wait so long, then I'll leave with Aunt right now.”
Aunt Yang held onto her rough hands, which were traces of the passage of time, proof that his aunt had toiled her entire life.
”Princess's words are too serious.” Aunt Yang said softly, then saw the bell at the side.
She looked at the bell and then looked at Zhong Miao Yi. She didn't ask Xiao Yao about anything.
Zhong Miao Yi would not change her personal servant for no reason, furthermore, looking at the dress on the bell, it was not a rule a servant girl should have.
Something must have happened to Xiao Yao. Other than that, Aunt Yang couldn't think of any other reason.
Ban Qiu watched from afar. Towards these, he was an outsider, he never thought that the Zhong Miao Yi would have such an identity, but no matter what identity she had, in his memories, she was enough as long as it was Xiao Yi.
He just needed to protect her, not get involved in her life too much.
Aunt Yang naturally did not miss Ban Qiu as well. In her life, she had seen too many people and experienced too many things. It could be seen that Ban Qiu was not a person from the palace, and was not an ordinary person.
However, after living in the palace for so long, she had learned not to ask too much and not to say too much. The best way to survive was to pretend to be deaf and mute.
She turned around and looked at the courtyard once more. This was the place that she had protected for her entire life, and she would never forget the previous owner of this place.
When leaving the cold palace, the bell was a little dazed. Since the arrival of Aunt Yang, he had been nonchalantly conversing with her, so she could only take a step back and gradually increase the distance between the two of them.
”Madam seems to rely heavily on this aunt.” She had thought that she was slowly coming into contact with the world of Zhong Miao Yi, but the more time she spent with him, the more she understood that she didn't understand this good-natured and beautiful princess at all.
Ban Qiu did not speak. For the time being, he could not feel any dangerous aura from this aunt of her.
The Zhong Miao Yi was determined to take the Aunt Yang away this time, so rather than hoping that Su Zeyi would find the time to help her while she was busy, it would be better to ask for it herself while she was still pregnant.
The emperor would not be stingy towards an elderly servant who knew her fate.
Along the way back to Chao Sheng Pavilion, Zhong Miao Yi took a random Little Maid to ask the Emperor where she was. Little Maid led the way with her head lowered, choosing to walk on smooth roads.
There were many tree-lined paths in Chao Sheng Pavilion, which looked a little gloomy in this winter season. Zhong Miao Yi unconsciously pulled her cape tighter and asked him concernedly, ”Aunt, are you cold?”
Aunt Yang shook her head slightly, her face red from the wind.
The rooms in the house were as warm as spring. The Zhong Miao Yi took off her shawl at the door, then brought the Aunt Yang to go in and kowtow.
When the Emperor saw that the person who came was the Zhong Miao Yi, he was surprised. ”A person with a body should not be able to rest properly, why is he here? ”A gift.”
No matter who it was, they would be able to tell from the Emperor's tight tone that when Zhong Miao Yi sat down, the Emperor saw another person kneeling on the ground. He could not help but ask in confusion, ”This is?”
Zhong Miao Yi did not answer directly. Instead, she said to Aunt Yang, ”Aunt will raise her head for royal father to see.”
Aunt Yang slowly raised her head. She was already old, if one was not very familiar with her, it would be difficult to see how she looked when she was young from her wrinkled face.
The emperor scrutinized her for a long time, then said with a frown, ”You are.”
”This servant greets the emperor. Long live the emperor, long live and long live.” She was trembling when she spoke, not in fear, but in excitement.
