Chapter 126: Night Banquet in the Palace (11)
The side face of the sleeping fence is particularly clear under the fireworks, the eyebrows and eyes are full of joy and comfort, the smile at the corner of the mouth is extremely open, simple and pure, beautiful and gorgeous, and the whole person looks more colorful than the fireworks.
The three princes have delicate and elegant eyebrows, a peaceful demeanor, and a light and warm smile on his face, whenever the sleeping fence next to him says something, he always responds very patiently one by one, and occasionally does not hear clearly, and will deliberately lower his head and listen carefully.
The girl smiles like a flower, the young man is as warm as jade, the two are like a pair of natural people, and they don't look like a good match.
In one of the corridors, there was a sudden shout of worship: "See Jade Gongzi!"
At this time, the fireworks have come to an end, not as loud as just now, the sound of the worship is not loud or small, just so that both Xiangyu and the other end of the fence can hear clearly.
Xiang Yu suddenly came back to his senses, he retracted his gaze, turned his head to look, and saw Xun Guangyan alone carrying a palace lamp, standing a few steps away from the corridor, worshipping at himself.
"Childe!" said a sound of surprise from the sleeping fence.
A brisk footstep quickly approached, and the hedge had reached Xiangyu.
She bowed to Xiangyu, with a joy on her face that had not yet faded.
Xiangyu glanced at her, and then turned her gaze to Xun Guangyan: "Little Master Xun is in trouble?"
Xun Guangyan leaned over and said, "It's okay, I just happened to see Yu Gongzi and wanted to say hello." ”
Xiangyu looked away from him with a smile, and then looked at the three princes by the lotus pond not far away.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and the three princes bowed to Xiangyu.
It's just that I don't want the third prince to bow halfway down, Xiangyu turned his head directly with an expressionless face and left.
The third prince, who saw Xiangyu's action in the afterglow, couldn't help but be stunned.
Was he ignored just now?
Xun Guangyan looked at the backs of Xiangyu, Tanuki and Mian Liang leaving, thoughtfully.
The third prince approached Xun Guangyan, and also looked in the direction where the three of Xiangyu's master and servant left, and said a little puzzled: "The jade prince doesn't seem to be very kind to me?"
Xun Guangyan glanced at him: "It's not like, it's true." ”
The Third Prince: "......"
Descend the stone steps and enter another corridor, where the lights are even more bright, and it is already close to the Taihua Palace.
Xiangyu suddenly stopped and said to the sleeping fence behind him: "You go to the dining room to help me get a jar of aged wine from the palace and bring it back to Xiangfu." ”
There was something strange in Mian Li's heart.
When did the son love to drink, isn't the wine in Xiangfu fragrant?
But she did so anyway and walked away.
Waiting for the sleeping fence to walk away, the tanuki slave was puzzled: "Childe, isn't Xiangfu always only serving the fence flower wine brewed by you, why do you suddenly want to ......?"
Before he finished speaking, Xiangyu suddenly glanced at him coldly.
The tanuki slave's expression froze, his voice stuck in his throat, and he couldn't squeeze out half a word.
was silent for a moment, but heard Xiangyu lazily reply: "On a whim, isn't it okay?"
The raccoon slave peeked at Xiangyu, and there was clearly "disbelief" written in his eyes.
That's it, whatever you say the old man is.
The tanuki smiled and hurriedly responded: "Okay, naturally it will work." ”
As soon as the other party heard that it was Xiangyu who came to get the wine, he immediately moved the oldest jar out of the deepest wine cellar, and the old chamber for the wine said that even the one who sat in the Taihua Hall all day had not yet drunk it.
After Mian Liang thanked him, he hurried to the Taihua Hall with the wine jar.
There were no people all the way, and the night banquet was near the end after a fireworks show, and the palace maids were all surrounding the nobles in the Taihua Hall at this time, ready to serve and lead them out of the palace.
Childe is afraid that he will have to wait.
The hedge quickened the pace of progress.
Walking back to Taihua Hall from the palace dining room, you have to pass through a rockery stone forest on the way, which is a place for the palace concubines to pass the time on weekdays.
If you pass through it directly, you can save the time of going to the Taihua Palace, but generally the palace maids and chamberlains will not do this, for fear of disturbing the nobles.
But Mian Li didn't know that when she went to the dining room just now, she took this short road, and when she came back, she naturally had to go back the same way.
The rockery stone forest in the night, especially quiet, passed through this place when the sleeping fence went, it was still pitch black, and when I came back, I found that I don't know when it had been lit by people in the four corners of the southeast, northwest and northwest, and several palace lanterns.
The shadows are full of shadows, and the atmosphere is a little more eerie than when it came.
As he shuttled through the hedge, he noticed something was wrong.
It seems to be quieter than when it came.
For some reason, he was a little uneasy, and his steps were even more vigorous.
Halfway through, a woman's cry suddenly came from a cave, and there were intermittent sounds of panic and begging for mercy.
Before entering the palace, the raccoon slave explained to her, there are many strange things in the palace, pretending to be blind and deaf and less mixed, and the identity of the sleeping fence is special, so it should be paid attention to.
So when he heard these sounds, he didn't plan to stop.
But the sound seemed to be getting more and more obvious, and finally the hedge could hear the conversation inside the cave.
I only heard the woman's pleading at the beginning with a threat, and her tone seemed to be bitter: "Big brother, I am your own sister, how can you do such a dirty thing, aren't you afraid that I will tell my father?"
"Little sister, you just follow the eldest brother and me, I have been hungry for you for a long time, the eldest brother is about to get sick, you feel sorry for me, it's good ......to feel sorry for me."
Then the woman's struggles and begs for mercy were heard.
"Big brother, don't do this, big brother, help...... Help!"
"Don't shout, I've cleaned up this piece, even if you shout at the top of your voice, no one will answer you, I finally seized an opportunity, I've been waiting for a long time, the cave room is worth a thousand dollars, let's stop wasting time." ”
......
Eventually, the footsteps of the sleeping fence stopped.
She could hear it clearly, that male voice was Fu Hengzhi!
Even his own sister was bullied!
Mian Fence could no longer turn a blind eye, and she held the jar of century-old wine and flashed directly in front of the mouth of the cave.
Outside the entrance of the cave, there were two tall black shadows, and when they got closer, they found that these two people were wearing inner clothes and were guarding the entrance of the cave.
As soon as the two attendants guarding the entrance of the cave saw the sleeping fence, they were about to come over and grab her with fierce faces, and two blood-red magic lights immediately flew out from the hands of the sleeping fence, which made the two attendants faint and fell to the ground immediately.
Xu was too much movement, and at the same time as the sound of falling to the ground sounded, all the sounds coming from the cave came to an abrupt end.
"What's going on outside?" Soon, Fu Hengzhi's inquiry came from inside the cave.
There was arrogance in his voice, and there was impatience to be interrupted by a good thing.
The hedge lifted its feet over the two bodies of the attendants who had fallen to the ground, bent down, and entered the narrow hole.
