Ah Sui suddenly laughed, laughing a little self-deprecatingly, "Originally, I didn't dare to disobey the prince's order anymore, so I should do this errand, but now, heh... It's convinced. ”

You Xue looked at him coldly, not knowing what he wanted to say.

"As early as after you were robbed by Wuhuan in Luoluo City, the prince transferred a group of hidden guards from Aoshan, led by me, to secretly protect your safety. ”

I don't know if it's because of the sunset, or because she hasn't eaten for too long, You Xue only feels a little cold, but her steps are a little weak, and she subconsciously reaches out to support the pillars along the corridor.

She knew this person's intentions, but she never faced up to him, and she was impossible.

Ah Sui's voice in his ears was still narrating.

"Until the day before returning to the royal capital, the prince instructed me that no matter what happens, the task of me and the three hundred and sixty-four hidden guards is to escort you to complete what you have to do in the royal capital and retreat. ”

You Xue only felt some warm liquid slip down her cheeks, "I... The reason why I followed him into the royal capital was only to help him fulfill his wish, so I brought the high priest into this trip, I thought he knew. ”

Ah Sui didn't know why, although the prince strictly ordered that the Nanxing girl know, he still had to tell the facts.

You Xue's trembling fingertips touched her cheeks, brushed away her tears, and looked at the magnificent sunset that was approaching at night, "So, that day on the beach, the man in black on the cliff was you?"

"You turned around so suddenly that day that you didn't have time to avoid it, but then I didn't expect you to go straight and break into the palace. ”

You Xue smiled bitterly and said no more.

The two of them stood and sat until darkness covered the courtyard.

Yuan Ziyue and Lan Ke walked into the courtyard noisily, saw the strange posture of the two, and walked over and asked, "What's wrong? Huh, are you crying?"

Yuan Ziyue was stunned, "Last time you cried, you thought that your quack doctor had harmed the people of Taoxiang, what was it for this time?"

Ah Sui didn't have anything to say, just glanced at You Xue, turned around and entered the house and closed the door.

"Boss, does this man plan to stay in the same room with me all the time?" Lan Ke said beside him with an aggrieved face: "I'm still growing my body! It's not good to sleep on the ground all the time." ”

"Hehe, you short body, you can sleep on the table. Yuan Ziyue joked.

When the two of them glared at each other, You Xue said, "It's okay, Ziyue sleeps in my room, and you sleep in Ziyue's room tonight." ”

"Okay!" Lan Ke cheered with his little chubby paws, so he didn't want to sleep in the same room with that ice cube face.

Yuan Ziyue's willow eyebrows were upside down, "No!"

"How about exchanging two incense-making recipes for one night?" You Xue hooked her lips and said softly.

Yuan Ziyue's slender Danfeng eyes flashed with a cunning light, and she grinned: "Add another secret, tell me why you cried?"

You Xue sighed lightly: "I was angry with a fool." ”

"Huh...... You remind me of my mother. Yuan Ziyue squinted at her, "This is the expression after every quarrel with my father." As soon as the words came out, she seemed to realize something, her face was a little heavy, and she pursed her lips and didn't mention it again.

You Xue didn't pay attention, she thought for a while and asked, "I've always been curious, why didn't you go home after you were rescued by Uncle Yuan, but became his righteous daughter?"

Yuan Ziyue sat on the stone steps with her knees crossed, looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky, and shook her head: "There is no home anymore." ”

"Hey, you women are really wordy, I'm so hungry......" An untimely voice broke the silence, and Lan Ke rolled his eyes at the two of them with an angry face.

※※※

After three watches in the night, a dark shadow flashed outside the house.

You Xue was not sleepy, she noticed the movement and quietly walked out of the room.

Ah Sui lowered his voice and said, "I received the news, the king is bathing in the Yukun Palace. ”

You Xue couldn't help but be suspicious: "No, his sick body is not suitable for bathing!"

"I don't know, but the queen is with me. ”

You Xue thought to herself that the palace dormitory was so noisy last time in order to get out, I don't know, can I get close to the emperor this time? But no matter what, I have to go, and only by letting the king recover his senses can we solve the problem.

"Can you find out where Dr. Qiongqi is?"

"It will take about half a month to reach the royal capital, and I have already arranged for my brother to go to pick him up. ”

You Xue breathed a sigh of relief, since the misunderstanding was resolved, she no longer guarded against Ah Sui, "You should have a defense map and topographic map of the palace, give me a copy." ”

Ah Sui immediately took out a parchment roll from his sleeve and handed it to her.

You Xue took it in surprise, but she didn't expect that he had already prepared, and after a cursory look, there was not much difference from the various positions in her mind, so she pointed to the location of Yukun Hall and said, "Yukun Palace's back is against Luoxia Valley, right?"

Ah Sui nodded.

Legend Luoxia Valley has nine springs lotus waterfall, from the height down, a piece of smoke and forest, Lan Guang is colorful, Cuidi Lake is hot and misty all the year round, there are more colorful butterflies dancing in the meantime, it is a strange place in the Vientiane Mountains, and it is also a superb view of the royal garden.

The spring water of the Yukun Hall is the water of the Cuidi Lake that is drawn from the Luoxia Valley.

You Xue looked at the sky, there was no moon in the night sky, the stars had already hidden in the dark clouds, the air was damp and dull and depressing, as if there was a rainstorm.

Soon, two dark shadows swept in the direction of the palace in the dark night.

In the Yukun Palace, the mist was shrouded, and the wind was dressed in a white brocade silk robe, his eyes were half-closed, and the blue under his eyes was extremely heavy, but his breathing had returned to normal.

The queen was only dressed in a light purple gauze robe, although she was nearly thirty years old, her complexion was as delicate as a flower, and her skin was as white and smooth as a shelled egg, she stepped into the edge of the soup pool, gently kneaded the emperor's shoulder, and said softly: "My lord, do you feel better?"

"Hmm. ”

"If the king had listened to the concubine's words earlier, don't believe the unknown Jianghu doctor Qiong, and let the imperial medical department take care of the king, and the condition would not have been aggravated. ”

Seeing that the emperor did not react, her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and she said:

"King, what should Ryohiko do with it?"

The people in the pool seemed to have fallen asleep, and they looked very tired with their side eyes, but the queen still did not give up and called softly: "The king......"

"Ryohiko... Who?" After a long time, the emperor slowly asked.

The queen's subordinates were stunned, and the look of doubt disappeared in a flash, and she chuckled: "It's the son of the crazy Luocheng county guard brought back by the black armor guard!"

The emperor's tone was light, as if he was extremely tired, "Since he is a crazy person, he will deal with it, and there is no need to mention it." ”

At this time, the queen was anxious, withdrew her hand, got up and knelt on the emperor's side, "The king, please think twice, that Liangyan kept saying that King Rui rebelled, and the concubines were panicked, so please order a strict investigation." ”

"The war has subsided, all parts of the country are waiting to be rebuilt, and there are even border towns and towns that have been affected by natural disasters, it is the time to use good ministers and capable people to share the worries of the widows, can the queen understand?"

The queen's heart sank when she heard this, but she didn't know what was wrong, "King, there are countless good generals in the court, why worry about no one to worry about the king?"

"Well, the queen's vision, the widow can trust herself, and this matter will be arranged by the queen. He paused before saying, "Go and rest, you don't need to accompany here, and summon King Rui into the palace tomorrow." ”

As soon as she heard the first half of the sentence, Lan Ying only felt that her heart was slightly relaxed, and in the second half of the sentence, her face changed, stunned, surprised, and disbelief flashed one by one, but she knelt by the pool, and the emperor couldn't see her expression.

Obviously, the emperor asked Yun Ze in a loud voice that day, whether what Liang Yan said was true, why did he seem to be a different person today?
