The two guards looked at each other when they heard what I said. It sounded like I should report it, but I was worried that if one of the two people walked away and let me out, it would be a dereliction of duty. It was when I hesitated that I saw an acquaintance.

This acquaintance is none other than Chief of the Guard. He didn't come here on purpose, but happened to be passing by with a team of palace guards. I saw that the two guards hesitated, but I was afraid that it would be difficult for me to face the saint, and when I saw the chief of the guard, I glanced at Rong Yan.

Rong Yan saw that the direction I was looking at was where Chief He was going, and where else did she not understand? Hurriedly opened her mouth lightly and stopped him: "Brother He! Brother Guard, please stay!"

If Rong Yan just called out "Brother Guard", then Chief He was afraid that he would not stay. It's just that in front of everyone's eyes, someone called him "Brother He", and he had to stay to see what the situation was.

So when he turned his head, he saw me and Rong Yan in plain clothes and stopped by two guards. Since I saw that the eyes of the chief of the guards turned to us, I didn't care about the difference between the kings and the ministers, and I gave him a little blessing.

"The mother is tormented. "Chief He was still in that cold voice, and at the moment when I saluted, he turned sideways slightly, and did not accept my salute. Then I heard his voice continue to sound, but it was directed at Rong Yan on the side: "Weichen...... I don't seem to know the girl. The girl just called to stay down, but is there something?"

Rong Yan was about to open her mouth, but I stopped her. Then he said to the chief of the guard: "The emperor ordered me to be grounded here, but a few days ago, the emperor sent someone to call away the two girls around me, these two girls went out of the palace to do things for me, and they have not returned at this time. ”

At this time, the two guards also hugged their fists and saluted like Captain He's guards early. As soon as I finished speaking, I heard the two of them complain to the chief of the guard: "Brother He, the emperor has arranged an errand to guard here, if we are not loyal to our duties, send out a person, what will go wrong...... But it's ......."

Captain He glanced at the two of them, then at me, and finally his gaze fell on Rong Yan beside me. After pondering for a moment, I only heard him say: "Since what the pure concubine Niangniang said is indeed reasonable, it is better for the two of you to go through this for the Niangniang." As for this guard, one of you will be left behind, and I will remain here for a while, and when you return, I will leave again. ”

When the two guards saw that Chief He was willing to stay and help, they discussed a few words with each other, and one of them saluted Chief He again, and trotted all the way to pass the word. And the chief of the guard He said to the patrol team he led: "Zhang Quan, you take people to continue the patrol first, and then go over later." ”

The guard named Zhang Quan was dressed differently from ordinary guards, and he should probably be a deputy, so he received the order at this time, and continued to patrol the palace with that team of guards.

"Thank you, Brother He. "Rong Yan got my permission at this time, and gave him a blessing to the chief of the guard He to express his gratitude. Just like he would avoid him when I saluted him just now, even if I am guilty of being a sin and being grounded here by the emperor, but I am still a pure concubine, and I have not been deprived of my title and demoted by the emperor, and because of this, I instructed Rong Yan to express my gratitude again.

Chief He waved his hand again and said, "Eat the king's luck, and be loyal to the king." Weichen is the emperor's courtier, Niangniang is the emperor's mother, what Weichen does is only out of loyalty, no need to thank you. ”

I smiled and said no more. And Rong Yan glanced at the chief of the guard He more, everyone knew the reputation of this chief guard in the palace, he was cold, and he didn't talk about the slightest favor. I don't think it helped us this time.

I smiled bitterly in my heart, I was afraid that it would be because he refused to be close to people that he would help us! After all, who in the whole palace now does not know that I have been rejected by the emperor? The personal palace maid is the face of one person, and the emperor wants to take Si Kite and Nian Yang, so he has already told the entire harem what kind of attitude he has towards me.

After a while, the guard who had gone to deliver the message trotted back. He came back with a little eunuch. Because of following a little father-in-law, the guard's pace became unhurried, not as fast as he had been at the beginning.

When the little father-in-law slowly walked up to me, I saw him look at my outfit with a little disgust, and then "cough" twice, and said: "Pure concubine Niangniang, the emperor instructed our family, let our family tell you, please don't have to be guilty, you still think about it here honestly." ”

When I heard this, I felt a chill in my heart. Hehe...... The person who said that he would leave me a place at any time...... The man who used to be sweet and pestering, sure enough...... It's all a lie, isn't it......

Then I saw that the guard who went to ask for the order also stood at the door, blocked the door, and said to me: "Pure concubine, I am offended." Please come back. With that, he turned his face away and stopped talking.

And Chief He Guard, who was standing on the side, was also stunned, as if he didn't expect this ending. Then he stood silently awkward, and after saying goodbye to the two guards, he left.

I was slightly stunned, but Rong Yan quickly supported me and persuaded me in a low voice: "Niangniang, then let's ...... Let's go back first......" I nodded slightly, then took Rong Yan's hand, and turned around to go to the palace.

Just when I was feeling discouraged and about to go back, things took a turn for the better. I heard a familiar voice coming from outside the palace gate behind me: "Niangniang, please stay! Niangniang, please stay!"

When I looked back, I saw that it was my father-in-law. I saw him running over with some dust, panting for breath, and complaining about the little father-in-law who had just passed the decree: "You little rabbit cub, you run so fast, our family hasn't caught up with you all the way." ”

Then I heard my father-in-law salute me and said, "Pure concubine Niangniang, the emperor just said, please come over." Then I saw that Grandpa Quan's expression did not seem to be as relaxed as his tone, but with some entanglement and sighs.

After listening to Grandpa Quan's words, the two guards at the door didn't say anything, and consciously let go of the door, and the little eunuch who came to deliver the decree before also restrained his initial disdainful look, shrank behind Quan Gonggong, and at this time he raised his head slightly, glanced at me and Rong Yan, and there was a trace of surprise in his eyes.

I saw the look of my father-in-law, and I also muttered a little in my heart. It's just that at this time, the arrow is on the string and has to be sent. I blessed my father-in-law and said, "Yes, the concubine is the order." With that, he took Rong Yan's hand and walked out.
