"What!" Zhou Ying never imagined that it was Xu Guifei who had an accident, and she didn't have time to analyze the stakes, so she hurriedly left one wall and ordered, "You go and tell Master Zhuang for leave and say that I have something...... That's it, my sister went back to the palace with me, and sent another person to take leave. ”

"Yes, Princess." Su Zhi summoned the little palace maid who was guarding the door, and as she commanded, she trotted a few steps to adorn Zhou Ying.

"What's going on, I'm annoying my sister to explain it to me in detail." Zhou Ying frowned.

"I only know that Niangniang is fine in the morning, and I have eaten with His Majesty. After sending her majesty away, Niangniang suddenly became interested and went to the back garden to enjoy the flowers. It didn't take long for the Ming Xi Palace to pass on the imperial doctor, and then His Majesty Xià went, and the imperial doctor ordered, along with a dozen or so imperial doctors who specialized in women's and children's diseases. After that, there was no news. Su Zhi said in a low voice.

"Back garden." Zhou Ying bit her lower lip gently, "If I'm not mistaken, the garden has only bloomed camellias in the past two days." ”

"Yes, yesterday the princess also picked a few camellias, dedicated to Niangniang, Niangniang was so happy that she inserted the bottle with her own hands, placed it on the glass case in front of the moon window, and rewarded the princess with a soft silk ......" Su Zhi's voice became lower and lower, "Niangniang will not be ......"

"If it's really a bad thing for those camellias, then I will be to blame." Zhou Ying's face turned white.

The two stopped talking, just hurried away, and came to Mingxi Palace after a while.

At this time, there were not only royal guards stationed in front of the palace gate of Mingxi Palace, but also two strange eunuchs guarding the door. Is this the emperor sealing the Mingxi Palace? The situation is so strict? Zhou Ying and Su Zhi glanced at each other, and they could see similar horror in each other's eyes.

Under the nest, there are no eggs.

If the emperor is angry, it doesn't matter if it is a newly rising princess or two palace maids who have sold well, they will not be able to escape the disaster of pond fish.

At this time, Zhou Ying can't retreat, whether it's about affection or filial piety, Zhou Ying can't protect herself and retreat back to the Qianxi Fourth Institute. What's more, this matter involves her, if she is not present, there is no way to justify being indiscriminately charged.

Zhou Ying gave Su Zhi a look, Su Zhi understood, took a step forward, gave a shallow blessing, and said to the Imperial Forest Army led by him: "This is the seventh princess of my family, who is about to go back to the palace to visit the concubine Niangniang, and please make it convenient for my lord." ”

This Imperial Forester is forty years old, with a hooked nose and eyes as sharp as an eagle falcon, and his armor and saber are different from those of the rest, at least at the level of commander. For the soft words of the beautiful palace maid, the middle-aged general was unmoved, "Your Majesty ordered the palace to be closed, and outsiders are not allowed to enter or leave without being called." ”

Su Zhi argued: "My princess is not an outsider, she lives in the west side hall of Mingxi Palace. ”

The middle-aged general did not move a single brow.

Su Zhi was anxious, stepped forward and pleaded: "If you don't believe it, just send someone to inquire, who doesn't know that the concubine Niangniang has recorded the seventh princess in her name, and she is very favored." ”

The middle-aged general was pestered impatiently, "Don't say it's just ......"

A hand suddenly stretched out from behind and pressed it on the shoulder of the middle-aged general, and his tone was brisk, "What's wrong, it's so lively." ”

The unscrupulousness in the middle-aged general's tone, no matter how dull the person is, can hear it, this person came by coincidence.

Zhou Ying looked up.

The person who came was a baby-faced Imperial Forest Army general, with a pouting face, dark and bright eyes, and a smile was two cute crescents, just looking at the face, it looked like an amiable and naughty boy next door. is dressed in silver armor and white robes, eight feet long, with an ape's back and a bee's waist, and his overall momentum is three points better than that of an old general, which is terrifying.

What's more, just with the middle-aged general's unruly face and a hint from the baby-faced general, he can order him to ban it, Zhou Ying knows that he and Su Zhi may have recognized the wrong person.

Sure enough, I heard the baby-faced general report to his home, "In Xia Ding Tang, Xi leads the right guard of the Royal Forest Army, who is this Highness?" ”

Zhou Ying didn't want Su Zhi to deal with it anymore, so she stepped forward to salute, "I have been in my family for seven years, and I have seen Commander Ding." ”

Facing Zhou Ying, the seventh princess who was not as tall as his waist, Ding Tang didn't slack off because she was young, and arched his hand, "It turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess, disrespectful and disrespectful." Ding Tang said empathetically: "Your Highness is here, do you want to go back to Mingxi Palace?" ”

The middle-aged general stood half a step behind Ding Tang, although he didn't speak, he was full of feelings. Zhou Ying glanced at the middle-aged general hesitantly, bit her mouth childishly, and said in a childish voice: "I know that my father has a will, but something happened to my mother, and as a human daughter, I can't sit idly by." Please also ask Commander Ding to make it convenient, if there is a mistake, I will bear the consequences, and I will never implicate the adults. ”

Ding Tang smiled, "Why does Your Highness need to say this, Mingxi Palace was originally His Highness's home, how can you need the consent of others to enter and leave your own house?" ”

Zhou Ying couldn't imagine that Ding Tang was so easy to speak, so she was stunned for a moment before she hurriedly saluted, "Thank you Commander Ding." ”

Ding Tang waved his hand and ordered the Imperial Forest Army to give way to both sides.

Seeing that the master and servant were about to disappear into the palace gate, the middle-aged general couldn't help it anymore, and stepped forward and whispered: "Commander, this is not in accordance with the rules." ”

Ding Tang shook his finger, "Don't be a villain in vain." ”

The middle-aged commander asked again, but Ding Tang didn't explain anymore, put his hands behind his back, and disappeared again in a flash. The middle-aged commander looked back helplessly, and when he saw another group of beautiful women in gorgeous costumes coming from afar, he couldn't help but darken his face.

On the other side, Zhou Ying was not stopped by the Imperial Forest Army until she bypassed the Zhaobi, and finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Ying walked to the main hall of Mingxi Palace, and when she walked to the door of the palace, she saw an acquaintance, who was Xu Guifei's palace maid Cherry. Because cherries are very valued by Xu Guifei, they are more decent than the first and second ordinary beauties and concubines, and they have never done any rough work, but at this time, they have fallen to the point of standing at the door and opening the curtain, Zhou Ying can't help but be secretly frightened.

There was a strange palace maid guarding not far away, Zhou Ying didn't dare to say more, only whispered, "Sister Cherry, ......"

Cherry's eyes suddenly turned red, and she hurriedly lowered her head to wipe her tears, and because she was aroused by this voice, she quietly admonished, "Your Majesty is furious, except for me and Lychee, everyone else has been locked away, princess must be careful." ”

Zhou Ying nodded knowingly and received this heart.

Bypassing the screen is the main hall, and the doors connecting the left and right side halls are each guarded by eunuchs.

The right hall is the study, although there is a heavy curtain, there is still a faint sound of discussion, Zhou Ying listened attentively, and faintly heard words such as "Tian Qi", "Angelica", "Yin deficiency and weak spleen", presumably the imperial doctors were considering the prescription.

The left hall is a bedroom, guarded by the emperor's personal eunuch Qiao Rong, and it is obvious that the emperor is inside.

Although he is not too close to the emperor's side, he is also familiar. Qiao Rong was not surprised to see Zhou Ying, he made a gesture of calm and calm, and went in to ask for instructions. After a while, Qiao Rong brought back good news, "Princess, please." ”

Zhou Ying took a deep breath and pushed the door in.

The room is a familiar carved pavilion furnishings, but it seems to be plain and dim, the nose is a smell of traditional Chinese medicine, just smell it, feel that the root of the tongue is bitter, and the root of the tooth is numb. The emperor sat at the head of the bed, holding Xu Guifei's hand, and whispered something in a low voice.

Zhou Ying saluted the two first, maintaining a posture of deep blessing, until her legs trembled so much that she couldn't stand anymore, and was called up by the emperor.

Since living in Mingxi Palace, Zhou Ying has not been so faced. However, one did not kneel, and the other did not kowtow, which was slow to treat Zhou Ying without taking it to heart, so she did not feel aggrieved and humiliated. But is the emperor angry with this move, or has he already convicted her......
