The body was one step faster than the thought, Ruan Liuyan put down the wine glass and turned around to leave, but unexpectedly there was a call from Dongfang Rong behind her, and she had to stop and wait for the other two to come forward.

"Concubine, long time no see." Unexpectedly, Su Changbai separated from Dongfang in the middle of the road. With a bright smile on her face, Dongfang Rong greeted Ruan Liuyan, as if she was not the one who was ruthless to Ruan Liuyan some time ago.

"Long time no see." Ruan Liuyan nodded lightly, his gaze swept over her face, and quickly fell on Su Changbai's back not far away.

In the hidden place in the rockery in the park, Dongfang Rong, Su Changbai and Ruan Liuyan are all there.

In the temple before, Dongfang Rong said that he would take her to meet someone, which was not bad with her guess, and the person she took her to see -

It was Su Changbai, who had not been seen since a month and a half.

Su Changbai is still as warm as jade as always, he hasn't seen him for many days, and his whole person has been cleared up a little, his white clothes are slightly blown by the breeze under the moonlight, and under the background of the lanterns hanging and burning everywhere, the whole person looks even more rich and jade.

"Concubine Yan, I was sorry for you before, and I already knew it was wrong. I know you have a lot to say, so say whatever you want! I'm right there—" Dongfang Rong pointed to the entrance not far away, "Give you the wind." When you finish speaking, Concubine Yan, wait a while, I still have something to tell you. ”

Dropping these words, Dongfang Rong picked up his skirt and ran away, so that Ruan Liuyan didn't have time to ask the question and swallowed it back. Ruan Liuyan and Su Changbai looked at each other speechlessly, and after a while, Su Changbai's deep voice broke the silence: "You... Are you okay these days? ”

Ruan Liuyan lowered his gaze to look at his toes, "I'm fine." ”

"But I'm not good at all—"

Su Changbai's chest rose and fell slightly, and when he stepped forward, he grabbed Ruan Liuyan's hands and put them in his palms: "How can you be so ruthless?" Liuyan, if I say that I have the ability to give you happiness, would you like to let go of a qiē and follow me? ”

"Don't do that!" Ruan Liuyan wanted to pull his hand out, but Su Changbai grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, "Liuyan, do you know how much I miss you during this time, every day I open my eyes and close them, it's all you." I let you go like that day, I thought I could suppress this feeling and look at you from afar, but it was only later that I realized that I couldn't do it at all! Liuyan, you come with me, we don't want anything, I'll take you away and fly high! ”

Su Changbai's passionate voice echoed in his ears.

It could be seen that he was in great pain, which made Ruan Liuyan unable to bear to push him away for a while, and of course she could not give him a response.

"It's late." Ruan Liuyan turned his head and whispered in Su Changbai's ear: "From the moment I entered the palace, everything has changed. You hid your identity from me at the beginning, and I believe you have your own grievances, but now you and I are no longer allowed to be willful, Ziyu, don't force me, and don't force yourself-okay? ”

"You're not lying to me." Su Changbai let go of her, but his hands were still unwilling to let go of her, "I already know everything." Liuyan, you were forced to enter the palace by Yin Xiang, and it was not you when you should have gone to enter the palace. You don't love the emperor at all, and the person you should love is not him! I'll help you find your mother's bones, and you come with me!" Su Changbai's eyes were full of hope, and Ruan Liuyan could only shake his head at this.

"Impossible, you can't find it. You are a literati, Yin Zhongxian is too cunning, I don't want you to suffer anything because of this incident. Ziyu, you don't care about my business, you'll be fine... Do a good job of your big salo, okay? ”

Ruan Liuyan's bitter heart couldn't move Su Changbai, his face was pale, his hands were tightly wrapped around her arms, and her arms hurt when he grabbed them. After a long silence, Su Changbai seemed to have made a great decision, his expression was quite struggling, and he finally made up his mind: "Liuyan, there is one thing, I have hidden it from you for a long time, in fact, my real identity is..."

"Oh no! Somebody's overboard—"

A panicked cry for help came from the night sky, Ruan Liuyan and Su Changbai glanced at each other, pulled out their legs and ran out of the rockery, Dongfang Rong was waiting to come over and collide with them. Su Changbai held up Dongfang Rong, who was almost a wolf bèi, "What's the matter?" ”

"I don't know! It's said that someone has fallen into the water, let's go and take a look! Dongfang Rong quickly explained, and then took Ruan Liuyan's hand, "Concubine Yan, you come with me!" Ruan Liuyan nodded, separated from Su Changbai and left quickly with Dongfang Rong.

The three of them rushed to the place of the incident from different routes in two waves, and when they arrived at the scene, only three or three palace people were left here to gather and whisper. Ruan Liuyan called a palace person to ask, and the palace person saw that Ruan Liuyan and Dongfang Rong were dressed, and hurriedly said truthfully.

It turned out that the little prince Dongfang Ling accidentally fell into the water, but now he was rescued and sent back to the palace to wait for the imperial doctor to heal, and the two who knew the news hurriedly rushed to Qingyun Palace. Traveling all the way, when I arrived at Qingyun Palace, there were already many people waiting here.

There were many people in the candle-lit bedroom, Dongfang Ke and the Empress Dowager Zheng were waiting in the nearest place in the corridor, the other palace concubines were scattered in the courtyard, and many courtiers followed each other, with anxious and worried looks on their faces, and Su Changbai had come here before the two of them arrived and hid in the crowd. The southeast of the courtyard was coupled, and Dongfang Jin, the prince of Jin, was also pacing back and forth here, not daring to step forward to disturb Dongfang Ke and the Queen Mother, Dongfang Rong stepped forward and pulled Dongfang Jin's sleeve, "Brother Jinhuang, Ling'er, how is he?" Okay, how could he suddenly fall into the lake? ”

"I don't know for the time being, I still have to wait for the news of the imperial doctor." After a deep groan, Dongfang Jin replied. Then he smelled of slaughter: "As for why he fell into the river, Rong'er, the imperial brother will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, and if there is a result, I will personally sue you." His eyes swept over Ruan Liuyan, who did not have much zài feeling next to him, Dongfang Jin nodded slightly, which was regarded as a greeting, and then stepped forward to ask Dongfang Ke to ask him to investigate the matter of the prince falling into the water, Dongfang Ke did not open his mouth to answer, and the queen mother on the side opened his mouth to allow King Jin.

Her fierce gaze swept over everyone present one by one, and finally her gaze fell on Ruan Liuyan in the corner of the crowd: "You don't care about the Mourning Family, but if you dare to hurt the royal heirs, the Mourning Family will be the first to refuse!" You'd better pray that Ling Er's fall into the water this time has nothing to do with any of you, otherwise you will be found out by the mourning family and you will definitely have her Ling Chi put to death!" ”

After a pause, Zheng spoke again: "Concubine Yan, everyone was here just now, but you were not there, but you told the mourning family, where did you go just now?" Zheng's question, everyone's eyes were drawn to Ruan Liuyan, and everyone's eyes looked at her changed slightly, in addition to surprise, there was a little hint of watching a good show.

"Queen Mother, Concubine She..."

"Rong'er, stop talking, the mourning family wants to listen to Concubine Yan herself!"

Zheng interrupted Dongfang Rong's words to explain, and looked at Ruan Liuyan back and forth with sharp eyes, Ruan Liuyan stepped forward and saluted: "Back to the Queen Mother, the concubine has been with the eldest princess the whole time, please let the Queen Mother Mingjian!" ”

"Presumptuous!" The Queen Mother went down the steps, and Yingchun Yingqiu hurriedly supported her left and right, "You are so bold!" At this point, he even dared to deceive the mourning family! Concubine Yan, obviously someone in the palace saw Su Sile with you, why did you hide it and not report it? As soon as these words came out, the eyes of those who were watching the show changed color again.

Hearing this, Dongfang Ke turned abruptly towards Dongfang Ling's body at this time, his sharp eyes fell on Ruan Liuyan, and then he said coldly to Su Changbai in the crowd: "I didn't know that Concubine Ai and Su Sile could get so close. Susler, can you tell me what's going on! ”

"The emperor is angry." Su Changbai took a step forward and bowed: "The minister did see Concubine Yan Niangniang before, but there was a reason for everything, and I hope that the emperor and his ministers will come together." His unhurried attitude made Ruan Liuyan feel a little more at ease, the Queen Mother clearly used this incident to allude to her affair with Su Changbai, if Su Changbai's reply was the slightest bit wrong, the Queen Mother would definitely hold on to the matter.

"Susle!" Dongfang Rong, who was ordered by the Queen Mother not to speak on the side, suddenly stepped forward, "It has come to this point, we can only confess to the imperial brother and the Queen Mother." Su Changbai, as the eldest princess of Dayan, I want to ask you today in the name of the eldest princess, what do you mean by asking Concubine Yan to date me and giving me such a thing? As he spoke, Dongfang Rong took out a very delicate carved hollow pattern jade pendant from his sleeve, this snow-colored jade pendant has always been seen Su Changbai often tied around his waist, and now it is actually in the hands of the eldest princess, so they...

Everyone was in an uproar, and Su Changbai also had a trace of surprise in his eyes, no wonder he couldn't find the jade pendant he carried with him after losing it, it was actually in her hands. His gaze was cast over, but he saw Dongfang Rong lowering his eyebrows, and he had already lowered his eyes and stopped looking at him.

Quickly reacted that Dongfang Rong was relieving Ruan Liuyan from the siege, Su Changbai thought for a while, and knelt down on one knee with his robe, "The minister is afraid!" Your Majesty, the minister has been in love with the princess for a long time, and has been looking for an opportunity to show his heart to the princess. Today at the lantern festival, the minister wanted to use the name of the lantern festival to inform the princess of his intentions, and happened to meet Yan Concubine Niangniang, so the minister found another reason to ask Yan Concubine Niangniang to help the minister ask the princess to meet. It's the minister's delusion that she wants to climb the princess, and she has nothing to do with anyone else, and she asks the emperor to forgive her sins! ”

"Forgiveness?" Without waiting for Dongfang Ke to speak, the Queen Mother sneered first and continued, "Of course the emperor wants to forgive your sins!" Su Changbai, you little Si Le dare to mourn the family's dissolution, even if the emperor does not cure your crimes, the mourning family will not be able to spare you! Someone - take him down for me! The voice fell, and Zheng, whose lips were flushed with coldness, returned to the corridor. I didn't expect that there would be someone rushing to be the substitute for the dead ghost and block her from punishing Concubine Yan, so she would be the first to take him under the knife!
