With the help of the Concubine Xian, the anxious look on Zhong Miao Yi's face slowly disappeared as everything returned to normal and was proceeding in an orderly fashion.
After being busy the whole day, Xiao Yao said that it would be more comfortable to boil some water for her.
Not long after, a unfamiliar Little Maid knocked on the door: "Princess Miaoyi, Princess Miaoyi?"
Zhong Miao Yi frowned and agreed, "Come in."
That Little Maid came in and knelt down, "My respects to the princess."
"Who are you?" Zhong Miao Yi looked at her, "I've never seen you before."
That Little Maid kowtowed and said: "This servant is the head lantern palace maid from before. I am here to pass on a message for Lord Su."
Su Zeyi? Upon hearing this name, Zhong Miao Yi's expression immediately changed. She coldly opened her mouth to urge him away: "There's no need to say anymore. Go, I don't want to hear it."
The Little Maid kowtowed once more. "Lord Su said that you definitely won't listen to any more of this servant's words. He told me to tell you that he brought news of Tang Yao when we met at Changqing Lake tomorrow afternoon."
Zhong Miao Yi's hands paused for a moment, and she suddenly felt defeated.
Su Zeyi held her in a tight grip. He knew that he couldn't stop worrying about Tang Yao, and he also knew that he would definitely go. That was why he made this palace maid speak in such a straightforward manner.
"You may leave." Zhong Miao Yi sighed, but the Little Maid did not say anything else and turned to leave.
Zhong Miao Yi didn't know why Su Zeyi wanted to see her at this time, but she was extremely annoyed. She didn't want to see him at all.
But Tang Yao!
Zhong Miao Yi was unable to describe the feeling in her heart. Xiao Yao quickly boiled water and came over to help her remove the hair ornament on her head. "Princess, you can wash now."
Zhong Miao Yi nodded, allowing her to peel him clean bit by bit, then she stepped into the steaming hot tub.
Xiao Yao was right, after soaking in the hot water, it was easy for her to get tired. She laid on the bed, drying her hair and thinking of other things, and very quickly, her eyes started to fight.
Seeing that, Xiao Yao whispered: "Princess, go to sleep, I will extinguish a few candles for you."
Then he got up and went to put out the candle, and the light in the room dimmed.
Xiao Yao was very comfortable with her hair being tied up, she helped Zhong Miao Yi do it little by little, and very quickly, Zhong Miao Yi fell asleep.
On the morning of the second day, Concubine Xian's palace maid came over to ask Zhong Miao Yi to go pick out the pattern embroidered on the bridal veil.
Zhong Miao Yi was not clear about what was good about this. What she knew were mostly mandarin ducks, but it was a good show.
However, she could not refuse Concubine Xian's invitation.
He could only let the palace maid wait for a moment. After she changed her clothes, she would leave.
The palace maids following after Concubine Xian were always a little more tolerant and patient towards her, smiling as they nodded in acknowledgement, then retreated to the door and stood alone.
Xiao Yao respected the Concubine Xian a lot. Every time Concubine Xian summoned her, she had to dress up carefully as the Zhong Miao Yi, so it was a little late when she went there.
He didn't notice that a long time had passed, and when he saw that the Zhong Miao Yi had arrived, he pulled her close to him. "Come, come. It's not a big deal. You can choose a pattern that you like. Otherwise. I always thought it was too tacky. "
Zhong Miao Yi thought for a moment and said: "Then let's have a peony flower. Right now, the peony flowers in the palace are just right for use.
Although she said that, the Consort Xian did not seem happy at all. She frowned, "A flower? No, alone. How about a bouquet of flowers? "How lively it is."
However, it was a rare occasion for Zhong Miao Yi to persevere, "Empress, just one flower is enough. Don't want so much. "
Consort Xian stared at her for a long time before sighing, "Forget it, let's do it this way then. Are you feeling well? Are you still drinking? She's going to be married, but she's going to be pretty. "
Zhong Miao Yi slightly rolled up his sleeves, showing it to Consort Xian. "Thank you for your concern, esteemed wangfei. See, everything has been taken care of."
After she finished speaking, she suddenly became a bit sad. She patted Zhong Miao Yi's hand and whispered: "Although I have my heart, if you do not have my mother to help you with these matters, I will not be able to give you a try at all. After you marry out of my palace, come back and sit down when you return. You must be fine, okay? "
"Miaoyi knows." The Zhong Miao Yi nodded her head. She knew all the painstaking efforts of Consort Xian.
Everyone wanted her to be fine, for fear that she wouldn't be able to get it right. However, she was very open-minded, so how could she not live? It's all the same, just happy or not.
Even though she knew that Consort Xian was probably trying to please the emperor, she was still very grateful.
When he arrived at the door, she suddenly said: "I want to go out for a walk, you can go back first."
Xiao Yao immediately became vigilant: "Princess, it's best not to go out at this critical juncture. If by any chance we meet Princess Yun Mengqi, then …."
Zhong Miao Yi smiled as she shook his head, "I won't meet them. I'll just walk around nearby and will be back soon."
After saying that, he released Xiao Yao and prepared to leave. Xiao Yao was still worried, and chased after him: "Then I'll accompany the princess."
If Su Zeyi wanted to see her and talk about the things she said, bringing Xiao Yao would be harming her.
"Go cook a plate of pastries for me, your red date cake is very good, I'll come back later to eat it." The Zhong Miao Yi found something for her to do before patting her on the shoulder, "I'll be back soon."
Changqing Lake was a remote place, it used to be a stage for singing and acting, but after it was abandoned, no one came. So Su Zeyi choosing to be here, was it to ridicule her, or to let her remember his identity?
She stood under the old stage and wondered what it must have been like in the old days.
When Su Zeyi hurried over, he just happened to see her gentle face.
There was a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, but for some reason, the anger in his heart was extinguished.
Su Zeyi stood at the side and watched for a while, then suddenly said: "You sure are in high spirits, I can see that you are in a good mood."
Zhong Miao Yi immediately recovered her cold expression when she heard him.
Su Zeyi was infuriated by her cold and distant expression.
