In fact, I had forgotten Wei Huan in the back of my mind, and when Wan'er mentioned it and remembered it again, the first thought was to go out of the palace to find her, take a step, but stopped, and remembered the scruples of this matter- Although my grandmother allowed me to leave the palace, it was too much twice a day, and the guards who followed me were all children of the eunuchs, and they traveled extensively, and I had any trouble here, they would be able to spread it all over the two capitals for me in one night, and then Princess Changle's reputation for being playful would not be said, I was afraid that Wei Huan would also have to bear the notoriety of Princess Qufeng, and besides, the words I heard in the palace today were all privy affairs, and there could be no rumors, even if I met with Wei Huan, I couldn't confide in my heart, not only was it boring to go, but I also had to beware of leaking my mouth everywhere, so it was better not to go。

The reason is to figure it out, but I hurt myself more and more, driving everyone away, I walked around the palace alone for a long time, watching the sunset fall, the sky was a red and magnificent cloud, suddenly remembered something, called a palace person to come, and asked her: "Is the person who escorted Wei Huan back?"

The man retreated

When I heard him say, I piqued my curiosity and asked, "What did she tell you to bring me?"

The little eunuch said: "It's just a bowl of cold tao bought in the East Market and brought into the palace, it's not good, so I don't dare to enter the lady." ”

I said, "Whether it's good or not, naturally I only knew it after I saw it, and you went to get it." ”

He lowered his head and answered "yes" weakly, if it was normal, I would not pursue it more, but today I saw everyone who felt unbelievable, and looked at him like this, I became suspicious, and stopped him: "I'll go back and see it myself, you go with me." ”

The eunuch's body shook very slightly, if I hadn't been staring at him, I would not have noticed, the more I felt that this matter was suspicious, so I walked quickly towards the Penglai Palace, and after a few steps, my mind moved, and I stood and turned back, and sure enough, I saw a young eunuch running out along another road.

When I saw them like this, I knew that there must be a ghost, and called "Stop", and the little thing didn't know that I called him, so he rushed forward, and I pointed at him and said, "Take it!" "Attendants, you look at me, I look at you, or the person from the Zichen Palace from my mother rushed over first, and grabbed him, dragging him over like a dead dog, the little eunuch was so frightened that his face turned white, and immediately pounced in front of me and cried: "Lady, the villain is in a hurry for a while, afraid of bumping into the lady, so he hurriedly walked away, I didn't hear the lady's call, the villain should die, the villain will die." As he spoke, he consciously kowtowed, and soon his scalp broke, and blood flowed all over his face, even on the floor tiles.

I saw that he was no more than seven or eight years old, and that he looked pitiful, and was about to call him up, when the words came to my lips, and swallowed again—I had never seen any of them in such a hurry after so many palace maids and eunuchs around me, who had served me for so many years.

The little eunuch saw that I didn't speak, so he kept hitting his head on the ground, and it didn't take long for him to faint, he was already thin, and he fell to the ground, the more he looked like a little big child, Wang Xu quietly leaned over, leaned in front of me and said, "Lady?"

I waved my hand in distraught and said, "Take him down, ask someone to give him some medicine, and don't let these young people run errands in front of me in the future." ”

Wang Xu bowed down and said, "The lady is kind, and the villain is all grateful." ”

I was really annoyed by their rhetoric, and sneered: "Don't just care about saying good things, what did you do with Wei Huan's cold tao to me?"

Wang Xu was stunned, I probably didn't expect that I was still pursuing the matter, and after a pause, he said: "Back to the lady, Wei Siniangzi presented a bowl of acacia leaves cold tao, which was made by a famous shop outside the East City Pingzhun Bureau, Wei Siniang is a good intention, but unfortunately the thing can't be put for a long time, and it has been broken when it comes in, Lu Weiyong asks the villain for ideas, the villain wants Wei Siniang to offer something, and the lady must see it, but this thing is really not beautiful now, and I am afraid that the lady will lose her appetite when she sees it, so she made her own opinion and ordered someone to throw this thing away first." If the lady must want to taste it, tomorrow the villain will buy a bowl again, cover it with ice, and send it urgently - in fact, this thing is still the best in the palace, but now that it is autumn, Shangshan does not do it there. ”

I don't believe a word of what he said, I want to track it down, and I don't know where to start for a while - the things Wei Huan bought and asked them to bring them into the palace, I don't know how many hands I have passed before and after, and I don't know how many people have passed in the Penglai Palace, if it is really for such a small bowl of cold tao, there are too many people involved. I think these people dare to hide from me so blatantly, and most of them are sure of this.

Besides, if it really makes a big deal and reaches my mother's ears, I'm afraid that the people around me will have to change again.

I stared at Wang Xu for a long time, and he bowed his head respectfully and put his hands together, as if he were the most intimate and loyal servant in the world. Looking at the eunuch Lu Weiyong who gave the order, he also changed his appearance of thanking God for his grace and breaking his body to repay him. Even the other people around them, at this moment, all showed cautious expressions of loyalty, as if there were no other loyal ministers and filial sons in the whole Datang except them, and the funny thing is that the most intimately between the whole Datang and me is about this group of people.

"In the future, Wei Huan sent things and handed them directly to me. After a long time, I opened my mouth lightly, and after saying this, I suddenly remembered other people, and added: "The people of Zhujing Hall will also handle it according to this." ”

Wang Xu bent down deeply, full of promises.

I looked at him, and suddenly I understood why my mother had specially replaced all the people in my palace - these people are really too disagreeable, Wei Huan is a person who has won my favor recently, and they dare to come like this with the things she offered, so what if there are some people who are not pleasing to me again?

Now I am just a young princess, and I have no power, but if I go out and open a mansion like my aunts, I have a long history or family order, and hundreds of subordinates, and I only rely on this group of people to pass on internal and external transportation, wouldn't I be blinded by others?

I am not wary of these people, in my time, everyone can easily count all kinds of eunuch dictatorship and foreign relatives dictatorship, and they are also well aware of all kinds of truths that are both open and partial, but it is one thing to know, and it is another thing to do.

I grew up surrounded by these people since I was a child, they have long become my eyes, my ears, my mouth, and my hands and feet, I have to do everything with them, and I can only do with them, they can sue me, Wei Huan gave me something, it was a bowl of cold tao, it was broken, because I was worried about me, so I threw it away, they can also sue me, Wei Huan didn't give me anything, but cursed me at home, saying that I promised to send her, but regretted it. I was thinking about Wei Huan, urging and asking, so they didn't dare to go too far, what if it was someone I couldn't think of?

I thought of my nurse Yang Niangzi, and remembered her unusual way of recuperating from the sick, and frowned unconsciously, and said to Wang Xu: "Bei Yuan, I want to go to the court." ”
