The sun is getting higher, and it's another sunny day, and it seems that I haven't seen rain here since I came here. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

was about to walk with Xiao Chuan to the river outside the Bang Building, when he suddenly heard footsteps, Zhao Ziluan walked up from the door, "Niangniang got up early." ”

"These days are very idle, and there is less sleep. ”

He lifted the things in his hand and said with a smile: "Niangniang, this is a new pastry from the East Palace, try it." ”

"New pastries, is there any happy event in the East Palace?"

"It's Concubine Li who is pregnant. ”

"I see. Let's come inside and taste the difference between this pastry. I took the small package in Zhao Ziluan's hand, "It's quite heavy, how much did you bring." ”

The prince rewarded each protΓ©gΓ© with a plate. ”

As soon as she heard this, Xiao Chuan began to feel angry: "It seems that Concubine Li has won the heart of the prince, but she is just pregnant, so she can't wait for the entire East Palace to know." ”

"Xiao Chuan, don't say more. Ziluan, let's go in. I called the two of them into the house.

The pastry is lotus-shaped, lifelike, and the filling is five-kernel, but I don't know what condiments are added, the fragrance is long, and the fragrance is lingering around the teeth, and the chef of the East Palace is really worthy of its name.

Seeing that I had tasted the pastry, Zhao Ziluan said: "Niangniang, the East Palace is heavily guarded, and even the most remote places are guarded by the Imperial Forest Army. If you want to leave, you can only use tokens. We can go through the side door at night. ”

"But we are all women, and it is impossible for the ladies of the East Palace to go out with you. Xiao Chuan became worried.

"Yes, you can't go blatantly. I can dress you up as a companion and go out at night. ”

"Is that all right?" I was a little worried.

"Escaping from the East Palace is a matter of life and death, I can only do my best, and I can't do it foolproof. Zhao Ziluan was a little lost.

"When will I be able to leave?" asked Xiao Chuan impatiently.

"I'm afraid these two days are not right. It is the birthday of the crown princess in the palace, and people will be strictly investigated. ”

The demure woman came to my mind again. When a girl celebrates her birthday, she always hopes to have a loved one by her side and spend this happy time together. Recently, Concubine Li has been in the limelight, and I don't know how sincerely the prince can accompany her to an unforgettable birthday.

"It's fine. A faint sorrow came to my heart.

"Niangniang," Zhao Ziluan slowly poured the water in the pot into my teacup, "Ziluan wants to ask, are you Mingxiu?"

He said something slurred, and I looked at his appearance and wanted to laugh, "It's not something to be seen for." I'm really not Mingxiu. I don't know who Mingxiu is, and I don't know how she became a substitute marriage. It's a pity that no one will believe all this I say. ”

"Then what happened to you before? You know, not everyone can enter the General's Mansion. ”

I shook my head, "I don't remember anything." After waking up, he was already in the General's Mansion, and Xiao Chuan knew it. ”

Xiao Chuan nodded, "My sister woke up and put on the sedan chair, at that time my sister said that she was not a Mingxiu girl, and she couldn't even remember An Guo." I haven't seen any Mingxiu girls, but I was hand-picked by the queen to serve Mingxiu girls. You must know how glorious it is to be hand-picked by the queen. ”

"The queen's mother?" I was a little surprised, "The master who can be hand-picked by the queen must be highly valued by her." The queen either loves Mingxiu as much as the crown prince, or she knows all this or she manipulates it all, and she appoints you to give you a sense of honor, and then she will defend me to the death. In this way, even if someone doubts my identity, they will not doubt your identity, not to mention, they will not dare to act rashly in front of the queen. ”

Zhao Ziluan frowned, "The prince will be annoyed and angry when he knows that you are marrying on behalf of him." So today everything is expected by the Queen. But what is the queen's purpose in doing this?"

I shook my head, "I'm afraid the reason for all this is on Mingxiu." ”

Xiao Chuan, who had been silent, said: "In the early years, I also heard a little in the palace, the prince and Miss Mingxiu were childhood sweethearts, and the prince treated Miss Mingxiu very well, but Miss Mingxiu was not a lady, and I had never heard of any high-ranking officials and nobles with the surname Ming, so we thought that Miss Mingxiu was just a palace maid like us, and at that time, Miss Mingxiu was still the object of envy of the harem women." ”

"Palace maid? Mingxiu will never be a simple palace maid. Otherwise, why bother the queen. ”

Looking at my contemplative appearance, Zhao Ziluan pushed the remaining pastries in front of me, "Niangniang, if you leave the East Palace, do you still care who Mingxiu is?"

I looked at him, "Who Myeong-so is has never been with me. I was just thinking that maybe the Queen knew where I was from. ”
