Xu Miaoyi, who was in the Baicaotang pharmacy, was unaware of the changes in the palace, and after the Yanwang Mansion stepped on the snow and enjoyed the plum blossoms, she agreed to meet on the Jinling City Wall on the night of the next Lantern Festival and enjoy the lanterns together.

During the Lantern Festival, the Jinling city wall was opened, and the people were all dressed in moon-white clothes, carrying lanterns and walking on the wide city wall, commonly known as "walking a hundred diseases".

Xu Miaoyi is also vulgar, wearing a white silk jacket, a moon-white threaded skirt, the first month is cold, she wears a white mink fur lying rabbit on her head, the clothes are made by the three younger sisters, the lying rabbit is given by the second brother Xu Zengshou, it is not a precious rarity, this dress is not conspicuous among the women who walk on the city wall in groups.

Before going out, Xu Miaoyi took a self-portrait in the mirror, the woman's eyebrows in the mirror were picturesque, and the joy of affection was the best fat powder, as if the pink one could pinch out the water. However, in any era, the amount of time a woman spends at the dressing table is equal to the importance of the person she is going to meet.

Even if the appearance of the person in the mirror is impeccable in the eyes of outsiders, Xu Miaoyi still opened the dark box of makeup, took out a piece of rouge and put it between her lips and sipped it.

Out of the alley, a familiar figure came to him, with a tall posture, eyes like stars, wearing a moon-white robe, a white crane, and riding a white horse, as if he was riding the wind and returning to the immortal.

Xu Miaoyi's face was cold, and the joy on her eyebrows disappeared, "Bastard, I'm looking for bad luck again." ”

From the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, to the eight thorns he bought, to the little eight, to today's bastard, Xu Miaoyi's name for the eight thorns she bought has changed four times.

But no matter what she called, Xiaoba was like a spring breeze, patted the horse closer, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, go to the city wall to walk all kinds of diseases?" Just drop by, go with you. ”

It was as if he was not the villain who threatened her on the first day of the new year and told her the truth about the assassination of Lord Liu.

There are such brazen people in the world, Xu Miaoyi suddenly pulled out the hairpin between her sideburns, and the sharp hairpin tail pierced the horse's buttocks, and the horse was in pain, neighed, and swished to carry Xiaoba forward and gallop away.

Seeing the white-clothed white horse disappear into the street like lightning, Xu Miaoyi said to herself coldly: "If you want to kill my cousin, I will kill you one day." ”

Xu Miaoyi hired a sedan chair and ordered the sedan chair driver to send her to the Zhengyangmen City Tower where she agreed to meet.

She climbed the city tower, and there were groups of Jinling people coming and going, like a white ocean. Xu Miaoyi looked at the fourth pillar of the city tower, and was faintly disappointed in her heart: she agreed to meet Zhu Di here, and every time she met before, Zhu Di came early and never missed the appointment.

Today, in order to get rid of the possible eyeliner, Xu Miaoyi deliberately took a detour, took the pocket watch on her waist and looked at it, she was late for a stick of incense, but Zhu Di was not here.

Maybe there's something to do for the time being. Xu Miaoyi comforted herself, bought a bowl of rice balls and waited while eating.

After eating the osmanthus glutinous rice balls, even the soup was drunk, but Zhu Di still didn't come.

The proprietress of the stall said with a smile: "Girl, there are many guests waiting to sit down and eat rice balls, you can't occupy a seat." ”

Xu Miaoyi took out five copper coins, "Another bowl." ”

waited for the glutinous rice balls to cool down, but Zhu Di still didn't see him.

On the upper floor of Zhengyang Gate, visitors shuttled like weaving, Xu Miaoyi went from looking forward to being anxious, and the proprietress smiled and said, "Girl-"

"I don't eat rice balls, I bought this position." Xu Miaoyi took out a small silver bun.

"Thank you, girl, for understanding the difficulties of our small business." The proprietress took the silver with a smile, went to the stall next door to buy a stack of pumpkin seeds, made a pot of tea and handed it to Xu Miaoyi, "Girl, wait for someone?" Don't be in a hurry, what should come will come. ”

What the hell is going on? Xu Miaoyi felt inexplicably uneasy and said, "What if you don't come all the time?" ”

Seeing this girl's nervous appearance, she must be waiting for her lover, the proprietress has seen a lot, and said with a smile: "I've been here, I've waited, and I won't regret it in the future." ”

Xu Miaoyi drank tea and continued to wait, there were performers singing in the city tower, but this year she didn't sing the lively Fengyang flower drum, it was an old man playing the guqin and singing an elegant old love song "Zijin".

"Qingqing Zijin, relax my heart. Even if I don't go, Zining won't make a sound? Qingqingzi Pei, I think about it. Even if I don't go, Zining won't come? Picky and embarrassed, in the city. Not seen for a day, like March. ”

It means that I was anxiously waiting for my lover on the city tower, and I sang to Xu Miaoyi's heart, thinking that I can't wait here, I have to think of something to find him, could it be that something happened?

In Xu Miaoyi's heart, Zhu Di is thoughtful and almost omnipotent, what accidents can he have, but what if he ......

Xu Miaoyi couldn't sit still any longer, and decided to go to Zhu Di, well, go to Yanwang's Mansion and ask the eunuch Ma Sanbao.

After making up her mind, Xu Miaoyi got up and went down to the city tower, and just a few steps away, Ma Sanbao's voice came from behind her, "Xu-Miss Xu?" Is that you? ”

Xu Miaoyi turned around and saw Ma Sanbao's face haggard, and he was angry.

Xu Miaoyi pulled Ma Sanbao to a secluded place under the city wall and asked, "What's the matter?" What about His Royal Highness King Yan? ”

Ma Sanbao took a breath and said: "Your Highness was going to see you, but suddenly received a secret order, hurriedly packed a few armor and weapons and went out, asking the slave to come and talk to you, don't wait for him." ”

Xu Miaoyi asked, "What did he do?" ”

Ma Sanbao said: "The slave and maid don't know either, it's a secret decree, and the slave and maid are not qualified to listen to it." ”

Xu Miaoyi asked suspiciously: "In the past, when King Yan and King Zhou were serving in the Northern Expeditionary Army, didn't you also follow and serve?" ”

Ma Sanbao said: "The slave doesn't know what's going on, anyway, no one is allowed to accompany me this time, His Royal Highness said that he will return to Beijing in half a year at the earliest, and he will return to Beijing in a year at the latest, so don't worry." ”

Xu Miaoyi pondered for a moment and asked: "The prince's status is precious, even if he executes the secret royal order, he must be accompanied by personal guards, you are the head of the Yan Palace, how many guards did the Yan King bring this time?" ”

Ma Sanbao was slightly stunned and said, "Twenty." ”

Xu Miaoyi asked, "How many people did Jinyiwei send over there?" ”

Ma Sanbao said: "This slave doesn't know. ”

Xu Miaoyi said: "Oh, I'll test Mao Xiang another day." ”

Ma Sanbao said: "Jin Yiwei's mouth is tight, ah-Miss Xu, what are you doing?" Don't touch the slave and the maid, the innocence of the slave and the maid! ”

Xu Miaoyi forcibly emptied Ma Sanbao's pockets, took off his purse, poured some of his belongings on the ground, checked them one by one, and suddenly raised the lantern in front of Ma Sanbao, looked directly into his eyes and asked, "Why are your eyes red?" ”

Ma Sanbao hurriedly said: "The wind is blind, and it is red." ”

Xu Miaoyi sneered: "Nonsense, wind energy blinds? You don't have the problem of seeing the wind and tears, so the sand can be blinded. ”

Ma Sanbao shouted: "The slave is anxious and said something wrong, it's sand, sand!" ”

Xu Miaoyi grabbed Ma Sanbao's ears and pulled them all the way to the Qinhuai River, "What kind of sand, you take me for a fool." It's your handkerchief, half-wet, salty, and clearly crying. ”

Ma Sanbao tilted his neck and shouted according to Xu Miaoyi's strength: "Yes, yes, yes, it's crying." During the New Year, I remembered my dead father and mother, and cried sadly, and the slave had a good face and was embarrassed to say it. ”

Xu Miaoyi pointed to the frozen Qinhuai River under her feet and said, "Send you down to take a bath, and keep it and reunite with your parents under the Yellow Spring immediately." ”

"Don't!" Ma Sanbao cried: "The slave doesn't know how to swim!" ”

Xu Miaoyi said: "It doesn't matter, the dead will naturally float. ”

Ma Sanbao cried: "The slave doesn't want to die now, the slave wants to see her parents at the end of her life." ”

Xu Miaoyi pressed Ma Sanbao down on the ice, "Then let's be honest, what happened to Zhu Di?" ”

Ma Sanbao cried: "The slave and the maid can't say it, the slave and the maid are also for your good." ”

Xu Miaoyi said: "Give you three times to think about it." ”

Ma Sanbao cried: "The slave and the maid can't say it, if the slave and the maid say it, King Yan will kill the slave and the maid!" ”

Xu Miaoyi: "One. ”

Ma Sanbao's face was pressed against the ice, and his hair stood on end: "The slave doesn't dare to say it." ”

Xu Miaoyi lifted the stone on the shore and threw it towards the ice, the ice exploded, producing a crack like a spider's web, and said coldly: "Two." ”

Ma Sanbao's ears had already heard the sound of running water under the ice: "The slave will die!" ”

Xu Miaoyi: "Three." ”

Ma Sanbao said with a handful of snot and tears: "Move! Slaves and maids can recruit anything! ”

Ma Sanbao wiped his tears and said: "On the fifth day of the first lunar month, King Yan drank too much when he entered the palace for a family banquet, and took a lunch break in the palace to relieve his hangover, and teased a beautiful palace maid by being drunk——"

Xu Miaoyi interrupted: "You are talking nonsense again! Zhu Di has a good character, how can he do such a thing! ”

Ma Sanbao cried: "I saw it with my own eyes, so is it fake? That palace maid looks a little similar to you, it is estimated that His Royal Highness King Yan regarded her as you when he was drunk, and pulled the palace maid's sleeve and said, 'My heart is a bandit, and I can't turn it.' My heart is a bandit, and I can't be swept away. The emperor was furious, angrily reprimanded His Highness for his drunken immorality, whipped His Highness on the spot, and threatened to take away His Royal Highness's title of Prince and demote him to a commoner! ”

The love words of "My heart is a bandit stone" are indeed what Zhu Di said, Xu Miaoyi was skeptical, "The emperor is a cautious eye, and he can't hold grudges the most." When the prince makes mistakes, no matter how big or small, they will be recorded in the "Imperial Records of the Record" as a punishment, and they are also copied and distributed to the royal family to show the public, in order to set an example, how come this kind of drunken and immoral humiliation has not been heard by the King of Zhou? ”

Ma Sanbao said: "It was the queen mother who stopped her from speaking out, excusing Her Highness, saying that Her Highness drank too much, and she was confused for a while, and she didn't really do anything about that palace maid." Besides, His Royal Highness is not married yet, and it is rumored that this kind of thing is not good-looking after all, and who will marry his daughter to His Royal Highness in the future. The emperor finally beat His Royal Highness to vent his anger, the whip was broken, and scolded His Highness for forgetting his roots, ordering people to strip His Highness of his fancy clothes, put on the coarse cloth clothes of civilians, and send His Royal Highness to the countryside of Fengyang to hunt and farm, and fend for himself, not allowed to bring servants, nor to bring any gold and silver, and not allowed to leave the countryside for half a step, otherwise His Royal Highness will be expelled from the royal family and will never turn over. ”

Xu Miaoyi was shocked, "When will he come back?" “

Ma Sanbao cried: "I don't know, when will the emperor lose his anger, you also know that the emperor can't hold grudges the most, at least half a year, at most for a lifetime." Woo, His Highness was covered in whiplashes, and now it is a green and yellow spring, and the crops have not grown, what does His Highness eat and drink? Dragging a wound to hunt and fish, woo, it's pitiful to think about. ”

Xu Miaoyi counted the days, "It's been ten days now, Zhu Di has long been in the countryside of Fengyang, why didn't you tell me earlier?" ”

Ma Sanbao cried: "Your Highness doesn't allow the slave to say it, for fear of dragging you down." Today's Lantern Festival, the slave maid knew the agreement between you and His Royal Highness, so she hurriedly came here to send you back. ”

Xu Miaoyi asked, "Then you're still late?" ”

Ma Sanbao said: "The slave maid is afraid of Jinyiwei's eyeliner, so she has taken a lot of detours, and she dares to see you only when no one is following......"

On the city wall of Jinling, the tourists are weaving, the lights are like day, the graceful buy of the eight thorns in a tea stall to rest, the tea guest sitting with his back to him is a short and fat passer-by face man.

The passer-by said to the teacup without looking back: "The subordinates have been secretly following Miss Xu, she first arrived at the Zhengyangmen City Tower, sat there for a long time, as if waiting for someone, and then her subordinates and Ma Sanbao, the eunuch of the Yanwang Mansion, left, and went to the Qinhuai River to talk, as if arguing about something, Ma Sanbao was almost drowned by her." There were no woods by the river, and there were no tourists, so the subordinates did not dare to get too close, and vaguely heard them as if discussing the king of Yan. ”

It's the king of Yan again! The eight thorns who bought it said secretly: Recently, they have been coming and going frequently, and the relationship seems to be a little different...... 166 Reading Network
