Chapter 409: Metamorphosis
"Squeak-" sounded, the door was slowly opened, the wind and snow outside the corridor suddenly swept in, in the heavy night, Gu Yanling's hand reached out slightly, pulled up the hood, and slowly walked out, in Aunt Cao's flattering and flattering smile, Gu Yanling passed by, just when the soft boots were about to step down the steps, he was holding Libi's hand, slightly side-jawed, and his expression was calm and calm.
"Aunt Cao has seen people outside of this Huanyi Bureau today?"
Aunt Cao was slightly stunned when she heard this, and when she looked up, she saw a curvature at the corner of the woman's lips, and immediately understood what she was doing, and immediately looked dazed, and said extremely seriously and respectfully: "The slave maid is in the Huanyi Bureau today, and I haven't seen anyone." β
Speaking of this, Aunt Cao couldn't help but clench her hands nervously, and in the silence, she saw the woman in front of her nodding her jaw gently, as if she was satisfied, and slowly walked down the stairs.
"Aunt Cao, you have to keep in mind your words, if you accidentally miss half a sentence in the future, your good son will not be able to cover the matter of buying an official in the hands of Yan Houzhao back then. β
The words were soft and slow, but they were like a thunderbolt exploding in her ears, making Aunt Cao's hands that were originally folded in front of her suddenly tighten, and she looked up almost instinctively, but saw that the cold back in front of her had already walked down the steps and slowly walked towards the distance.
The words were still in her ears, Aunt Cao only felt that her lips were numb, and her brain was buzzing, she knew very well that no matter who she was now, once she had the slightest connection with the Yan family, it was enough to kill her, and she wanted more than one life.
A chill rising from her back made her body tremble slightly, and at this moment she could only pretend to be calm and clasp her hands tightly, but she also firmly remembered that reminder and did not dare to forget it for a moment.
As the night deepened, the entire Miyagi city fell into silence, and even the falling snowflakes became so peaceful.
From the depths of the road, the distant sound of bangzi slowly came, and the Huanyi Bureau of the third watch finally ended the day's labor and exhaustion.
"Squeak-" sound, the door was slowly pushed open, and Sui Zhu, who was originally combing his hair, heard the sound and saw Sui Yue walking in tiredly, and when the door was closed, he frowned slightly and held his waist, as if he gritted his teeth and endured the pain and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"What's the matter, the old illness is happening again-"
Hearing Suizhu's concerned voice, Suiyue barely stretched her eyebrows and nodded, and the next moment, she saw that Suizhu had already walked over, gently pinched her waist and said, "Just now you went back to wash clothes?"
Seeing Suiyue nodding, Suizhu immediately let out an angry voice, but she couldn't hide her distress and said: "Those clothes are obviously thrown to you by them that they can't wash them all, why do you wash them for them? What's more, didn't even Aunt Cao say a word and ask them to wash them?"
Feeling the comfort of his waist, Suiyue lay on the bed obediently as usual, and became more and more quiet between his eyebrows, hearing this, and then he sounded indifferent, but it was difficult to hide his self-deprecation.
"What do they say, those clothes are in my basin after all, and if I don't wash them, they will really wash them for me?
Sui Zhu's face sank when he heard the sound, and a trace of ruthlessness and unwillingness appeared in his eyes: "I don't believe in this fate." β
Sui Yue smiled helplessly when she heard this, and the faint candle flame cast a shadow on her face, and in this gloom, the corners of her mouth were imperceptible cold.
"Aunt Cao, what did you just call you to do?"
The strength of the waist was as comfortable as ever, and the question behind him seemed unintentional, but Suiyue was stunned in his heart.
What should come, always comes.
Suizhu behind him was silent, quietly staring at Suiyue's side face, and didn't seem to let go of any detail.
The moment the words fell, she saw that the corners of Suiyue's lips stiffened, and her face seemed to be a little paler, and then, the ridicule on her lips increased a little, only to see Suiyue's trembling lips, and slowly said: "Chen De wants me to eat against him-"
In the sound of rustling clothes, Sui Yue leaned slightly sideways, and the smile was empty and desolate.
"Aunt Cao is here to be this lobbyist. β
Hearing this, Sui Yue paused in his hand, and when he pinched it again, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, but his face was condensed with anger and said: "That old guy doesn't look at what he is?
"What's the thought, it's all the life of a slaveβ"
Suiyue's tone was flat, and she lay back again, as if she was extremely tired, she folded her hands on the pillow, tilted her head slightly, leaned down, and silently closed her eyes and said: "What's more, I'm just an old and decrepit palace maid at the lowest level in the Huanyi Bureau, but I am also a steward. β
"Phewβ"
Suizhu took a sip angrily, and then said loudly: "You and I are both people from Changchun Palace, when we were big palace maids, he Chen De didn't know where to light the fire, so he dared to marry you and do his daydream." β
Speaking of this, Sui Zhu stared at Sui Yue, and gradually said a little more serious and cold in his eyes: "When you and I go out on his day, the first one will take his life, see who dares to violate you and me again!"
The words fell, there was silence, Suizhu looked at the silent Suiyue in front of her, finally sighed helplessly, and when she gently rubbed her waist, she couldn't help but gently stroke the hair on her sideburns and said, "Sleep, you are also tired today." β
Listening to Suizhu's warm comforting voice, Suiyue's body loosened, and at this moment she felt that she was really tired.
But she also knew that no matter how tired she was, for Sun Qi's sake, she had to end the last sin in this life before she could really close her eyes.
β¦β¦
Under the cold wind and snow, the lively sound of firecrackers, the year will pass by, in the blink of an eye, the new year is coming as scheduled, on the second day of the first month, whether it is in the imperial city, or outside the imperial city, every household is hung with a red lantern, in the night, that circle and circle of red halo will be the entire Jingling every silent street, every dark corner is illuminated, it looks warm and serene.
At this moment, the palace is also very lively, and the palace people have changed into new winter clothes, coming and going, and their eyebrows and eyes are full of joy.
And the Qianhe palace is also noisy and abnormal, I saw that the palace people under the command of Lingbao, hands and feet neatly hung red gauze silk lamps, and on both sides of the Dan Majesty, two rows of longevity lamps have already been installed, at this moment are lit up one by one, the golden light is shrouded and opened, sprinkled on the longevity treasure of the gold thread embroidered dragon and phoenix hanging on both sides, it is more complementary, making people feel shining.
In the main hall, the emperor's golden dragon banquet table has been set up, and the position of Empress Yuan is in the position of facing west and sitting in the east.
The snowflakes outside the hall flew like clusters of dandelions, falling on the ground leisurely, and they had already accumulated extremely thick, and when you stepped on it, you could hear the sound of "creaking-" when you stepped on it, almost reaching the thick soles of your boots.
At this time, the concubines of the six palaces, as well as the sedan chairs of the royal family who entered the palace according to the rules of the ancestors, also slowly came towards the Qianhe Palace.
