Upon hearing this, Xia Wan's guilty gaze suddenly changed drastically. At this moment, her eyes flickered with a bright light, and her gaze as she looked at Si 'er was full of inquiry.
For some reason, Xia Wan felt that Si 'er was not as simple as she appeared to be. As a servant girl of the Xia residence, she knew so much. Moreover, for a moment just now, she actually felt the confidence in this servant girl's words. She did not seem like a servant at all, but like a master. Xia Wan's heart gradually tightened.
Si 'er did not seem to notice Xia Wan's questioning gaze at all. She cleverly avoided Xia Wan's gaze and looked at the peach blossoms dancing in the wind outside the window as if she was reminiscing.
"On the day of wangye's twelfth birthday, the emperor held an extremely grand banquet for wangye, and that day also happened to be the sixteenth year since the emperor and consort Rong met. As everyone knew, Concubine Rong was the Emperor's favorite concubine, and his highness had been smart and quick-witted since he was young. His courage was outstanding, and his appearance had the advantages of the Emperor and Concubine Rong, especially his innate domineering aura, which was exactly the same as the Emperor's.”
"One can imagine how much the emperor loves wangye. The banquet ended very smoothly, and everyone was very happy. Especially the main character of that night, wangye's face was filled with an exceptionally happy smile. At that time, wangye was innocent, lively, mischievous, cute, and was the little wangye that everyone loved.”
" Si 'er…" Xia Wan suddenly spoke, interrupting her." You…how do you know so much?”
"Back then, I went with Madam and Master. Miss, you happened to be seven years old at that time. According to the tradition of the Ziqiu Kingdom, seven-year-old girls have to study in the Dao Academy for a month. You happened to be on your twentieth day of study in the Dao Academy, so you didn't go. Moreover, Si 'er was originally a member of the Palace and had stayed in the Palace for a year or two. Later on, Furen saw that I had been wronged by Noble Ting and asked me to come to the residence.”
"Ke Si 'er, you're not much older than me, right?”Xia Wan carefully folded the painting and put it back into the book. She handed it to Si 'er to put it in the bookcase, then stretched her muscles and stood up.
"Yes, Si 'er is only one year older than Miss. Miss is seventeen years old now, and Si 'er is eighteen.”Si 'er followed Xia Wan's footsteps and explained behind her.
"Then does Your Highness want 22?"
"Yes."
She was 22 years old, the same age as when she had transmigrated. In comparison, everything she had done was far inferior to Mo Lingyun. This Mo Lingyun was really capable.
"Go on, tell me everything you know.”Xia Wan came to the bed and began to get on it. She pulled down the curtain and completely cut off Si 'er's line of sight.
When Si 'er saw this, she hurriedly went forward to give Xia Wan slippers through the curtain. When Si' er took off her shoes, she touched her skin and she could clearly feel the calluses on it. Xia Wan silently looked at Si 'er's hands through the curtain and realized that they did not look like the hands of an ordinary woman at all…
"After the banquet ends, the Emperor will send Consort Rong back to Buckwheat Palace and then return to Jade Dragon Hall to review the memorials. And the young prince was brought to Buckwheat Palace. But on the way, he met Consort Lian.”Si 'er continued to talk to herself.
"Consort Lian? That gentle woman?" Xia Wan successfully took off her coat. Immediately, she was no longer bound by the past. This way, she would not be at a disadvantage in a fight.
"It's her. Consort Lian and Consort Rong had a very good relationship. The two of them were as close as brothers, and the prince had a good impression of this concubine. He sent his attendant to Qiaoyun Palace to inform Consort Rong that they were going to visit Consort Lian's Jingxiang Palace for a while. After Concubine Rong agreed, Concubine Lian chatted and laughed with His Highness in Jingxiang Palace. Consort Lian was different from ordinary women. She had a wide knowledge of literature and history, and her style of speech was elegant. She was particularly good at chatting with the prince, who had read more than a thousand books. From time to time, she would bring some strange toys from other places for the prince to play with.”
"But when the young prince returned to the Buckwheat Palace, he discovered that Consort Rong had disappeared. His Royal Highness then ordered everyone to search for Concubine Rong. However, after searching for two hours and turning the entire Buckwheat Palace upside down, they still could not find Concubine Rong's figure. His highness informed the emperor. When the emperor heard the news, he was shocked and quickly mobilized all the manpower in the palace to search for him.”
"But we still haven't found anything. In the end, people found Concubine Rong's outer robe embroidered with epiphyllum flowers behind a fake mountain in the imperial garden. It was what Concubine Rong had worn that night, but there was a large area of dazzling blood on it. The ground and grass were covered in blood. The imperial physician who came with them determined that the blood belonged to Concubine Rong.”
"The imperial physician could actually determine that the blood belonged to Consort Rong?”Xia Wan stopped fighting with her clothes and raised her head in disbelief.
"The Ziqiu Kingdom has a special grass called the Blood Identification Grass. As long as the powder made from this grass is sprinkled on the blood, the blood will coagulate into a lump. The doctor can judge the color, smell, and clarity of this special blood clot. Usually, the doctor will record the basic information of the blood clot in the person who has been treated by the doctor in case of an accident.”
Xia Wan's eyes suddenly changed, and the gaze she looked at Si 'er with became deeper and deeper. Si' er not only knew a lot about the secret history of the palace, but she also knew a lot about medicine.
In her memories, even though she was familiar with many books, she actually knew nothing about this Blood Identification Grass. Moreover, Si 'er spoke fluently and meticulously, not at all like an uneducated servant girl. In his memory, the main character had never taught Si 'er to read. When Si 'er first saw the book, she said excitedly that she couldn't read it.
This meant that Si 'er knew this book very well. The servant girl actually knew a lot about military books?
At the thought of this, Xia Wan turned her gaze to Si 'er's body. She suddenly realized that Si' er's body was actually so sturdy. Every time Si 'er gave her her hair, she felt that Si' er's hands were a little rough.
Her gaze was fixed on Si 'er for a long time, but in the blink of an eye, her eyes began to look at the entire room. When she saw the broom not far away, Xia Wan suddenly stood up.
"Continue talking. I'll exercise.”Xia Wan instructed as she walked to the corner.
"The Emperor said that when he saw Concubine Rong's physical body, he could not determine if she was dead or not. He immediately ordered a thorough search of every corner of the palace and every place within a radius of forty miles. However, since that day, Concubine Rong seemed to have disappeared and was never found again. The Emperor's spirit was also greatly damaged because of this. After two years of recuperation, he returned to normal and continued to work hard to govern the country. However, Concubine Rong became an indelible pain in the Emperor's heart. According to the people in the palace, before the Emperor arrived, he would drink to drown his sorrows and ignore political affairs. He would stay in the Jade Dragon Hall alone and drink for a day.”
"What about Jiu Wangye?" Xia Wan felt that Mo Lingyun's unpredictable personality might have something to do with this matter.
As expected.
"Your Highness also seems to have changed into a different person. He is cold and heartless, bloodthirsty, and no longer has that warm feeling like the sun.”
"He used to be warm and sunny?" Xia Wan thought of that man who was as cold as ice. Sometimes, he looked at her with a bit of a loafing gaze. It was really hard to imagine.
