Chapter 14 Chapter Fourteen No Long Eyes

Li Qingxi was taken aback. Before he entered the door, he quickly covered the brocade behind him with his sleeve, and saluted him, "Slave pays respects to Mr. Su." Su Peisheng is the chief manager of the fourth rank of Fangzheng, whose official rank is the palace supervisor and chief attendant, and is in charge of the affairs of the entire House of Internal Affairs.The eunuchs and courtiers of the various departments and courts of the Ministry of Internal Affairs must obey his dispatch and take charge of the daily life of the three main halls.Ranked first among the eunuchs in the middle palace.Compared with those old chief eunuchs who have been struggling in the palace for many years and have not been promoted, they are young, vigorous, and promising, and their careers are in full swing.

When the eunuchs by the threshold saw him, they didn't dare to eat, they stiffened their necks, bowed their heads in silence. Su Peisheng ignored the others, just glanced at Li Qingxi leisurely, and then said with a half-smile: "In the past two days, our family heard that Eunuch Li's eyes are not very good, why don't you find a doctor to show him?" Li Qingxi was startled, but didn't understand, "The slave's eyes are fine, did Eunuch Su hear that from someone who can't talk?" "The eyes are so good, why do you always go to the wrong place? You are obviously working in the Duyu Division, but you see Tiandi running to the respect room, and you take the green head card of the concubine in the harem as the record of the Duyu Division. What do you think?" You can do whatever you want. If this spreads inadvertently, Eunuch Li’s position as chief manager will be forgotten, and whether he can keep his head will depend on the mood of Long Live Lord.”

Su Peisheng didn't show any sympathy, so after finishing speaking, he asked the eunuch behind him to fetch the brocade drawer, and then flipped open the plaque in the center, which had Wu Yingyun's name written on it. Li Qingxi's complexion changed immediately, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, "Damn the slave, damn the slave." Su Peisheng squinted his eyes, took a look at Yunbi's green-headed card, and threw it back, "Our family is really blind. I didn't expect that people from Du Yusi would go to Xianfu Palace. I have been serving my master since I was a child, what is the master's mind, and a slave doesn't know? In the past few years, why have some concubines in the palace been favored and some concubines fell out of favor? If you all rely on this little green card, can you You underestimate those of us around the emperor."

"My father-in-law forgive me, but I know I was wrong. From now on, my slave will always follow the lead of the male stallion..." Su Peisheng snorted and looked at him with a smile, "Our family dare not accept you. Your current master is Empress Yunbi, who is very precious, but don't think that you can play wild in the respect room casually after worshiping the wall! Go back and tell me Your master, what Long Live Lord hates the most is these tricks of playing tricks. For her sake, our family will be lenient to you, but if there is a next time, our family will not forgive you lightly. "

Li Qingxi was sweating profusely. Hearing this, he kowtowed again and again, "Thank you, Mr. Su, for your kindness." After speaking, he took three steps in parallel and walked out tremblingly with his face inward. "Wait a minute, do you want to leave now?" Su Peisheng stopped him suddenly, then paced slowly until he walked up to Li Qingxi, and then raised his hand, with a smile on his face, but at the next moment, he shook his hand and slapped him hard. Li Qingxi was so beaten that he staggered and fell to the ground. He covered his swollen face and looked at Su Peisheng in astonishment and fear.

"Eunuch Su, this..." "Our family spared your life, and now they have given you another face. Why, you want to leave after patting your ass? What do you think our family is!" Li Qingxi was startled, but suddenly remembered something, so he slapped himself, and then tremblingly took out a few bank notes from his bosom, which were stamped with a big red seal, all of which were Baocheng's name. The ticket number of the bank, "It's because the slave has no eyes, and the slave deserves to die. This kindness is the slave's gratitude to Eunuch Su for not punishing him. The father-in-law is so kind, the slave is like an ox and a horse, and dare not forget."

Su Peisheng weighed the banknotes in his hand, with a smile on his face, "These are all evidences that you bribed our family, and they are also evidence that you secretly changed the name tag, and our family kept it. You can do it yourself in the future, if you are caught again , don't blame our family for being ruthless." "Yes, yes, yes... the servant remembered." Li Qingxi finished his thanks with three bows and nine kowtows, and left the respect room disheartened with his tail between his legs.Yushu stood in front of the table by the west window, seeing everything that happened, dumbfounded, and subconsciously clenched the embroidered bag in his arms.

It was only then that Su Peisheng turned his head and looked over with a smile on his face, "Our family taught the slaves a lesson, which made my master laugh." Yu Shu said with some embarrassment: "Your Excellency is involved in all kinds of things, I'm the one who bothers you..." Su Peisheng smiled nonchalantly, "Actually, our family understands what the young master means. Logically speaking, our family can't help with this favor, but since the young master is someone close to the concubine, our family can't save face." How about this, next month on the third day of the month, the emperor will look at the beautiful women of the two flags in the imperial garden, and then our family will arrange the young master in. Whatever happens, the young master will have to decide..."

Yu Shu didn't expect him to speak so directly. After listening, he immediately took out the embroidery bag, uncovered the silk ribbon on it, and was about to dig out the gold.Su Peisheng held down her hand, still smiling and said: "Young master, this will hurt your feelings. The so-called future will be long. When the young master rises to the top and does not forget our family's love, it will be fine. How can I let the young master Expense?" Yushu thought he was being polite, and gave in again, but said that Su Peisheng really refused.Some do not understand.Just now Li Qingxi used the green card and was caught by him, it was nothing more than a slap in the face; now she offered to give gold, why don't you want it?

"Elder-in-law's kindness, Yu Shu never forgets it." Su Peisheng nodded with a smile, and ordered the little eunuch beside him to send her back. When Yu Shu returned to the house, the other beautiful girls were sitting on the stone benches in the yard chatting. When they saw her stepping into the yard, one of them suddenly raised her voice and said loudly: "Yo, the one who climbed the branches I'm home?" Yu Shu's face froze, and with the embroidered bag in his arms, he ignored it and walked into his room.At this time, another voice from the other side stopped her: "Why are you leaving in such a hurry? You feel guilty—"

The girl next to her gave her a kick, and said with a serious smile: "Be careful, she is now a celebrity in front of Empress Wanbi. When she becomes an empress in the future, her status will be different, and we all have to kowtow to her." Woolen cloth!" Lian Xin walked out of the back room with the newly embroidered palace pattern in her hands, and when she saw Yu Shu coming back, she was about to go up to her, but was stopped by a beautiful girl from another room, "I said, why are you still rushing forward? She With such a good reliance, is it worthwhile not to support you?" Lian Xin was taken aback, just at this moment, Yu Shu kept walking past her, without saying a word, just buried her head down, her eyes were a little red. Lian Xin frowned, shook off Xiu Nu who was pulling her, and followed into the house. The door was closed behind him, and the beds in the outer room were tidied up. Yu Shu lowered his head, sat down on the couch in silence, took out a piece of blue flower square cloth, and began to pack his things. Lian Xin walked over and grabbed her, "What are you doing?" "I want to move out. Anyway, there are other rooms in the West Wing that are vacant. Don't stay here, and let them talk about it if you are troubled!" After Yu Shu finished speaking, tears fell down unsatisfactorily.She reached out to wipe it off by herself, but who knew that more would be left behind. Lian Xin sighed, "Why bother to be as knowledgeable as they are. The concubines treat you well, they will naturally be jealous. You just ignore it, why bother yourself?" Yushu looked up at her with red and swollen eyes, "Lian Xin, do you blame me?" Lian Xin smiled gently, stroked her hair, and said softly: "Silly girl, if you gain power, I will not be happy for you in time, so how can I blame you? It's just that you just offended Concubine Yun, and now you are leaving with Concubine Wan Being so close, I'm a little worried..." Yu Shu held Lian Xin's hand, leaned her head towards her, and leaned against her side, "I know. Because you told me earlier that in the imperial garden, Empress Wan concubine planned to frame Yun concubine, which just shows that they are actually in harmony with each other. I have been at odds with each other, and I have been fighting against each other. So I think that Wanbi wooed me, to a large extent, to fight against Yunbi. But Eunuch Su has promised me that he will arrange my name tag into the next selection. " Lian Xin was a little surprised, "Su Peisheng?" Yu Shu nodded, "It was the concubine Wan who asked me to go find him. If I can stand out this time and win the rank, I won't have to stay here and be bullied by them." Lian Xin looked at her with a look of worry on her face. The third day of junior high school is a rare good day. The wind is clear and the sun is bright, and there is a thin cloud floating in the blue sky.The sun shone through the clouds unscrupulously on the ground, making the bricks and stones burn hot.The fresh flowers are blooming, the fire is cooking the oil, and those newly painted corridors and pillars are so bright that the oil is so red that it seems that rouge can flow down at any time. In Jingyixuan, there is a black lacquered screen with 12 painted black lacquer screens with Huanghuali Longevity character and dragon pattern. In front of the screen, open chairs and red sandalwood small square tables are set up. Fresh fruit, full of cuteness. As soon as the time arrived, a group of beauties in palace costumes came along the stone path.Holding hands together, with a gentle smile on her face, as she walks lightly, the swaying skirt is like a butterfly among flowers, bringing a gust of fragrant wind.These are the beautiful women who are to be seen by the emperor. They are subordinate to the inlaid white flag and the positive red flag. The eunuchs in the respect room will select fifteen of them with the highest names to be selected. The open chairs in the Xiaoxuan were still empty, Feng Xiuchun led the beautiful girls to the gravel path and lined up.The girls with the same flags and flag heads bowed their heads in silence, folded their hands, and waited quietly. But at this moment, several promises and Chang Zai sat in the main hall of Xianfu Palace for a long time, until Wu Yingyun finished dressing up, the group of several people stepped out of the palace gate and walked towards the imperial garden. The draft is actually a very arduous task, with numerous screenings and assessments.No matter what the family background or connections are, any mistakes or omissions may offend people and cause trouble.The previous two times were hosted by Concubine Qin herself, but this time, due to the rainy days a few days ago, her legs and feet suffered from old ailments, so it fell on Wu Yingyun's shoulders. "Even such an important matter is entrusted to Sister Yunbin, which shows how much our Long Live Lord favors Sister." "That's right, just looking at this one, it's already better than that Wanbi." Beside him, several promises and Chang Zai were chattering. Wu Yingyun listened to it, pursed her lips, and said nothing. Seeing beautiful girls is a big deal according to clan rules, but it doesn't seem to be so important in the eyes of the emperor.It's hard to say how favored I was when I handed it over to her, but it's true that I sent her to do it for me.Otherwise, the majestic empress is still sitting in Chuxiu Palace, so how could it be my turn? Thinking of this, Wu Yingyun couldn't help but think of the year when she participated in the draft.That was three years ago, when the emperor ascended to the Great Treasure for the first time.It has been delayed for a long time like this year. If it weren't for the urging of the concubines, the new class of show girls would have almost entered the next class.And the ones who were selected were not the ones that the emperor personally pointed out, but those with higher status in the clan, like her, like Li Qingwan, and even many concubines who had never been favored before. Kings have loved beauties since ancient times, but for someone like the emperor, it's hard to figure out how. While Wu Yingyun was thinking, several people walked around the Wanchun Pavilion together, and a half-open flower garden was in front of them. The flowers in the garden were blooming just right, but they couldn't compare to those twenty-eight-year-old girls. They were bright and beautiful, with a moony beauty, so that even the whole courtyard was ashamed. The show girls stood under the sun, their cheeks were slightly reddish from the sun for a long time.Seeing a group of people coming, they saluted in fear.Standing in the middle, Yushu saw that it was Wu Yingyun who came, and after a moment of surprise, he quickly lowered his head. "This palace is here today to represent the emperor and the concubine. You don't have to be restrained, and you can do as usual." Wu Yingyun walked dignifiedly, holding the name and taboo book sent by the slaves in his hand, and walked in front of them one by one. Passed by, glanced over, nodded and said, "You are all girls in the banner. If you are selected to the palace, you should be able to write poems and draw. How about this, each of you has a special skill, so that this palace Look." After Wu Yingyun finished speaking, she walked up the steps and sat in the shaded pavilion.The servant girl handed her fragrant tea, and she took a sip, holding the booklet and flipping through it page by page. This booklet was sent to Xianfu Palace a few days ago. It recorded in detail the family background of each beautiful girl, and it was also accompanied by a small photo.Wu Yingyun looked through it carefully again at this moment, thinking that since it was pointed at her own head, it would be fine if she couldn't push it down, so she might as well recruit a few for herself, and if anyone among them really spread their wings and fly high, she could remember her own grace. Under Jingyixuan, the show girls began to prepare, and almost all chose quiet skills-painting, writing or playing the piano. Some of them were good at dancing, but it was a hot day, and they must be sweating after dancing. I had to give up. When Yushu came, she also chose Huahua. Just dipped the brush into the ink, at this moment, Wu Yingyun suddenly put down the booklet in his hand, raised his eyes and said: "You don't need to draw anymore, I will remove your qualification for the draft, and I will send her out of the palace tomorrow Bar!" In a word, the audience was astonished. Feng Xiuchun hurriedly walked to the red sandalwood table, "I would like to report to Empress Yun, the young master Yushu only stayed in the palace after passing the primary election. If he was sent out of the palace so rashly, I'm afraid..." "Reckless?" Wu Yingyun looked at her with a half-smile. "The servant dare not, the servant just..." At this time, Wu Yingyun stood up from the open chair, and then handed the taboo book to Feng Xiuchun, "Look at the records on it. Geng Jia Yushu, the daughter of Geng Dejin, the head of the nine-door admiral's mansion. My ama is still in the capital At that time, he temporarily acted as the security guard of the capital for a while, and when the imperial guards mutinied, Ahma punished several leaders who were unfavorable guards. So I still have some impressions of the name Geng Dejin." Wu Yingyun squinted and looked down at Yu Shu in front of the painting table, "You are not a woman in the flag at all, because you, Ama, were stripped of the flag five years ago. How dare you forge and impersonate." guts!" After she finished speaking, she slapped the book on Yushu's face. "Miss Yunbi, the slave is not pretending, the slave's Ama has resumed her flag status, the empress is clearly aware!" Yushu plopped and knelt on the ground, kowtowing again and again. Even Feng Xiuchun's complexion changed, pretending to be from the flag and entering the palace for draft, what a big mistake this is?Not only the slaves and maidservants in charge of this matter in the House of Internal Affairs, but even the officials in the Ministry of Household Affairs will lose their heads because of this. An unpredictable smile appeared on Wu Yingyun's face, "Recover the flag status? Of course, I know that the identity that was cut off may be restored due to meritorious deeds. However, what I want to know is, is there anything wrong with your Ama?" Has the clan's residence been filed? If not, then he is still just a common man, and why did you enter the palace for draft?" Yu Shu was completely dumbfounded, Qi Ji, clan mansion... She was finally able to register her name in the Ministry of Household through the arrangement of Niu Hulu Jiajia.If Ama is still not in the banner, how can he enter the palace? Thinking of this, Yushu poked his neck and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the servant's Ama has indeed recovered her flag status, please be aware of it, Your Majesty!" Feng Xiuchun also cupped his hands and said: "Yes, empress Yunbi, this matter is no small matter. Empress must not listen to other people's gossip, and mistakenly blame young master Yushu." "Is it wrong? I'll find out later that the head of the seal will send someone to the clan's mansion to check. I'm tired. I just watched a round. These beautiful girls are not outstanding. I think they are good-looking It's still among the rest of the people, let's show you." After speaking, she raised her hand, and immediately a servant servant took her hand. Under Jingyixuan, the dozen or so beautiful girls present couldn't help crying, Feng Xiuchun wanted to say something, one of the maids serving in Xianfu Palace came up and said to her: "Aunt Xiuchun, Before the matter is clarified, this 'girl' Yushu can no longer live in the Zhongcui Palace, so Auntie Xiuchun should arrange her properly." When Lian Xin and the others found out about Yu Shu, it was already two hours later.The beautiful women in the East and West Wings were all sobbing, no one interceded with Yushu, they all said that she was the only one who implicated the other fourteen people who visited this time.After finally getting the chance, she just lost the qualification to become a concubine. "Auntie, where is Yushu going to be sent?" Feng Xiuchun was ordering the palace servants to pack up Yushu's things. When she turned around, she saw another beautiful girl standing here. She couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then said flatly: "Temporarily, I will be detained in the North Five. deal with." "Aunt Xiuchun, but Yushu is innocent," Lian Xin pulled her arm, her tone urgent, "Aunt Mingjian, for the selected Xiunv, it would be a big deal if she wanted to conceal her identity as a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs. One thing! Yu Shu was born in a humble family background, how could she have such ability?" Feng Xiuchun's expression was a little complicated, she looked at her, and was silent for a moment.Of course she knew what she said, but the order was given by Concubine Yun, how could she, a slave, have any room to comment? "Little Master Lianxin, the affairs of Young Master Yushu... are beyond the power of one or two people. I would like to advise you, in the palace, it is better not to take care of things that should not be taken care of." The North Fifth Institute is the place where the abandoned concubines of the past dynasties were imprisoned, and it was a cold palace.Yunbi only said that she would be imprisoned there temporarily, but no one knows how long this is temporarily?Compared to Xin Zheku, it is already grace. Feng Xiuchun didn't say anything anymore, and turned around to let the servant take out the things. "Aunt Xiuchun..." Lian Xin suddenly knelt down in front of her. "What are you doing, my lord?" "I know that once she enters the North Fifth Institute, Yushu's future will be ruined. Not only will she not be able to participate in the draft, but it will be very difficult to get out of this palace from now on. She is still so young, does my aunt really have the heart to look at her?" A girl who has not experienced the world, is she going to spend the rest of her life in that cold palace where no one is seen all the year round?" Feng Xiuchun froze for a moment, but then sighed, "Master Lianxin, you get up first. Little master Lianxin thinks that if this matter is cleared up, little master Yushu will be safe and sound?" Feng Xiuchun supported her He shook his head with a wry smile, "Even if it is finally found out that the young master Yushu really recovered his flag status, however, from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and then to the Clan Mansion, it will take at least half a month to go back and forth like this. It's been a long time. And the slaves have just received the notice that starting tomorrow, the concubine in the palace will let the concubines and concubines in the palace take turns presiding over the draft, and arrange 20 people a day. You do the math, my master. After half a month, I will be the master Yushu What can I do if I go back to Zhongcui Palace? I have already missed the chance to be elected. It will be another three years before the next round." Lian Xin's feet swayed and almost fell. Yushu... Xianfu Palace is located on the northernmost side of the Sixth West Palace, separated by an imperial garden, just across from Jingren Palace. But compared to the grandeur and grandeur of Jingren Palace, Xianfu Palace is slightly inferior.The main hall is only three rooms wide, with yellow glazed tiles on the roof, a door in the front eaves, the rest are sill windows, and indoor wellhead ceilings.There are three side halls in the east and west, each with a hard mountain top, and several ear rooms in each. The positions and comparisons of the east and west sides of the two palaces are like the two women living in the palace. They entered the palace in the same year and were awarded the same rank. They are destined to be entangled and fight together forever. Wu Yingyun was sitting in the spacious bedroom, with a stew pot on the table, she was holding a porcelain spoon with twigs, and took a mouthful of lotus lotus seed dew, which melted in the mouth, leaving a fragrance on her teeth and cheeks. "You are this year's show girl, you should not be older than twenty-eight, which banner is it?" The girl in the hall knelt for a long time, she just opened her mouth leisurely, Xianglu swallowed down her throat, still had some in her mouth, and spit out with a gentle voice, every word and every word, exhaling like blue. "Reporting to Empress Yunbi, the servant's surname is Niuhulu, and her humble name is... Lianxin." Wu Yingyun heard the surname, squinted her eyes, looked at her for a long time, shook her head with a light smile, "It's a pity, if your family is not dilapidated, I am afraid that after you enter the palace, your status will be higher than this palace. .” Lian Xin kowtowed to her, "Slaves and servants have a humble fate, so they absolutely dare not think about it. The empress is a body of gold, how can an ordinary woman be able to hold her own." Wu Yingyun smiled, "You are very good at talking. Do you know why I asked you to come here?" Lian Xin shook her head, expressing that she didn't know.The hand hidden in the sleeve was tightly clenched due to tension, and the palm was full of damp sweat. Wu Yingyun put the spoon in a small pastel bowl, put her legs curled up on the kang bed down, put them on the jade footrest, and immediately the servants who served her beat her legs. "That day in the imperial garden, behind the rockery... it was you!" Lian Xin suddenly raised her head and stared at her with wide eyes. With a smile on Wu Yingyun's face, she leaned down and pinched her chin, "No matter how bad I am, I can still see a paper kite hanging on the treetop, but unfortunately, someone like Concubine Wan is as scheming as she is." But you just ignore the things right in front of your eyes. And you, you really shouldn't, after witnessing such a secret, you still have to take the kite back. Do you know that if you don't take it, I might not I know it's you." Lian Xin bit her lip, with regret in her eyes. That's right, rough handmade paper kites are rare in the palace, so it's not difficult to find them out if you check them out.At that time, she was only thinking about making Yushu happy, but she forgot that that thing might bring them both a fatal disaster. "Your Majesty, I swear to the heavens, I never told anyone about what happened that day." Lian Xin gritted her white teeth lightly, and what she bit out was a bit of pleading and sorrow. "Of course I know. Otherwise, do you think that according to Wanbi's temperament, if she hears a little gossip, she will keep you until now?" Wu Yingyun let her go gently, and then put her hands together, elbows together. On the cloud leg table, "But I was put on by her that day. If it wasn't a fluke, I'm afraid I'm already in limbo at this moment. I can't swallow this breath. So now, I have something I want you to do." After Wu Yingyun finished speaking, she asked the servant on the side to give her a bottle of medicine. "this is……" A small porcelain vase with carved patterns and twirled branches, rouge glaze color, holding it in your hand, you can smell a faint sweet smell. Wu Yingyun looked at her without blinking, and said in a firm voice, "I want you to approach Concubine Wan." She has always known that Li Qingwan has been wooing those beautiful girls ever since she gave them a run for their money in the garden.Especially that Geng Jia Yushu.Whether it is good intentions or malicious intentions, the girl in front of her is the person who is closest to Geng Jia Yushu in Zhongcui Palace, and everyone knows it.And now, Geng Jia Yushu was locked up. She knows Li Qingwan's temper and temperament very well. If someone begs her because of this at this moment, Li Qingwan will definitely not ignore it, but she will not really care.He will only keep the begging person by his side on the surface to show kindness and generosity. "And once you get close to Concubine Wan, you have the opportunity to get close to the little princess. At that time, you have to let this bottle of medicine exert its maximum effect." Lian Xin's hand holding the medicine bottle tightened suddenly, and she raised her eyes in astonishment, "Your Majesty, what you mean is to let the slaves go..." Wu Yingyun noticed her expression, and patted her hand reassuringly, "Don't worry, I don't want you to harm the little princess. After all, I have nothing to do, let alone, there is no need to murder Gege." "The servant girl's qualifications are low, and she is wrongly loved by the mother..." Lian Xin bowed her head towards her, and said in a low voice. The matter has come to this point, she knows that she can't refuse, but at this moment, she feels like she has knocked over a five-flavored bottle.Even if it is not poisonous, it is a calculation.For such a secretive matter, Yunbi put aside her heart and soul, and she chose to find a beautiful girl who only met a few times. Wu Yingyun seemed to know what she was thinking, and said with a light smile: "This matter must be done by someone with no powerful background. Otherwise, Li Qingwan would never let an old man in the palace get close to the little princess casually." After she finished speaking, a faint smile flashed in her eyes, "I have always been very patient, and only by setting a long line can I catch big fish. And don't worry, after the matter is completed, I will naturally catch you in the middle of reading." Stay. If there is a chance to meet the emperor, I will protect you. From then on, it will be a matter of time before you reach the top of the sky and fly to the top of the branch." When Lian Xin heard this, her thoughts moved, "Ma'am, I want to..." Wu Yingyun raised her hand suddenly and stopped her words, "I know what you want to say, you want to ask me to let Geng Jia Yushu go. Right?" Lian Xin nodded vigorously. There was a smile on Wu Yingyun's lips, as if she was waiting for her wish, and she spit out the following words one by one: "But what if I let you choose? Saving people and ascending, you can only choose the same, or What's the conclusion?" Lian Xin said without hesitation: "This servant only begs the empress to spare Yu Shu." Such a decisive answer, without a trace of hypocrisy and trade-offs.Wu Yingyun's eyes froze, and she stared at her in disbelief, without blinking, wanting to find even a little bit of regret and regret in her eyes.However, no.Such clear and sincere eyes seemed to have never been seen since she entered the palace. Wu Yingyun looked out of the window, her eyes gradually changed, becoming vicissitudes and far away, after a long while, she said quietly, "Don't worry, the day when it will be done will be when Geng Jia Yushu walks out of the North Fifth Institute." When Lian Xin left Xianfu Palace, it was past You Hour. The night quietly diffused up, and the soft moonlight was like chiffon, sprinkled on the cornices of Yujing Pavilion, between Duixiu Mountain and under the railings of Yanhui Pavilion.Walking through the double porch, along the vermilion palace wall all the way to the west, is the quiet imperial garden.The gate of the open garden has been locked, and the corner door on one side can still be passed through. Lian Xin gently pushed the door open and walked in tiptoe. Aunt Xiuchun said that after dark, you can't walk around without authorization, otherwise you will be punished.And if they are caught by the officers and guards guarding Miyagi, they will be regarded as assassins, and they will be killed by random arrows. The huge garden is extremely quiet at the moment, only the faint moonlight illuminates the stone road.The pavement is paved with colorful stones, shining brightly in the moonlight.Lian Xin walked all the way, trying her best to stand on tiptoe without making a sound.I thought to myself that fortunately I was not wearing flag shoes, otherwise it would be so dark that I would have to fall down. After bypassing Duixiu Mountain and passing through the corner gate on the easternmost side of Jiangxuexuan, there is a path back to Zhongcui Palace.Lian Xin quickened her pace, and was about to run across the rockery on that side, when a hand suddenly stretched out and pulled her over. There is actually someone in the imperial garden?Lian Xin was so frightened that she wanted to call out directly, but before the cry came out, the other party covered her mouth with his hand. "Well……" Lian Xin was so frightened that the three souls disappeared and the seven souls were struggling desperately in the man's arms.But the other party hugged her waist tightly, imprisoning her between the rockery and himself. "it's me." The faint voice whispered above his head, it was an all-too-familiar voice.Lian Xin was taken aback for a moment, and after a long while of reaction, she raised her eyes in disbelief—this position, this angle, happened to be backlit, and the entire face of the person in front of her was shrouded in a layer of shadow.However, she recognized him immediately. Seventeen princes? In the forbidden area of ​​the palace, in the dead of night, why did he suddenly appear here? She widened her eyes, took off his hand covering her mouth, and then quickly looked around, seeing that there was no one around, she was slightly relieved. Yun Li helped her tuck her slightly messy hair behind her ears, and said softly, "It's been two months." Lian Xin didn't hear clearly, so she couldn't help asking in a daze: "What?" "It's been two months!" He looked at her quietly, his eyes were warm and focused, "I haven't seen you for two full months." Lian Xin's cheeks flushed suddenly, she lowered her head and clutched the corner of her skirt, and said with a thin accent, "Because I have entered the palace, and the prince will also be preparing sacrifices in the palace, so naturally I won't be able to see it." Two months, from the time she returned home and prepared to enter the palace for election, to the first selection, and then waiting for the re-election.Speaking of which, it really has been a long time. Yunli raised the corners of her lips slightly, with a smile in her eyes, she only looked at her for a moment, but didn't speak.Lian Xin lowered her head, his breath was warm, gently brushing on the top of her hair, the two of them were very close at this moment, his hand was still around her waist, Lian Xin leaned against the rockery behind her, moved a little, whispered He spit out a few words: "I'm in a panic..." After finishing speaking, he bit his lip embarrassingly. Yun Li laughed out loud, and gently took her away from the side of Duixiu Mountain.Then he took her hand, and the two walked slowly to the corridor next to Jiang Xuexuan. "Is everything all right in the palace these days?" He held her shoulders and motioned for her to sit on the red-painted side rail, while he sat beside her.The huge pillars blocked the figures of the two, and they could not be seen from below. Lian Xin nodded, "The rules and skills learned in the mansion have been reviewed again in the palace. It's just that I have to have morning classes every day, and the teacher is a bit annoying." Yun Li stroked her black hair, "Did you encounter any embarrassing things?" Lian Xin paused with her fingers clutching the corner of her skirt, and then shook her head slightly, "During the draft, there are only teaching and admonishment, and the rest is about getting along with girls, and it is almost rare to see outsiders." She said, He told him some ordinary things. Yun Li lowered his head and listened very carefully. It is said that the deep palace is sinister.Aunt Xiuchun often said that for a woman who can walk out of Zhongcui Palace, appearance is the first step, talent is the second step, but what is more important is means and cunning.She has just entered the palace, she is still inexperienced in the world, and she doesn't want to get involved in the thoughts of right and wrong, just thinking about it, but it is difficult to do it after all.However, it's all a matter of rouge, how to do it, I just want to be worthy of my own heart, why worry him... After talking about some things, she suddenly remembered to ask him: "By the way, how did your lord know that I would go this way?" The position where he was just now happened to be facing the east corner door, so he should be waiting for her on the return road. Yunli stretched out his hand, and picked off the petals that fell between her hair, touching the hair with his fingers, it felt a slight tickle. "Did you forget that I kept Xiao Anzi following you?" A simple sentence made Lian Xin's heart feel warm.She pursed her lips, and the corners of her lips turned up slightly unconsciously.Most of the beautiful women who enter the palace to be selected are helpless, but not only does she have Yushu as a confidant, but she is always protected by a small shadow wherever she goes, which makes her feel extra at ease, but she doesn't know who is now? Is Xiao Anzi still in a corner? At this time, I heard him add in a low voice: "But now there are only two of us here."
