After three rounds of drinking, Ji Xuanyuan found that Shu'er was gone, and Huaiyang was still standing behind the princess's seat, "Huaiyang, where is the eldest princess?" ”

"Princess Fang Cai said that she was going to the side hall to change her clothes."

Huai Yang said only to realize that Shuer had been gone for a long time, and even if it was to change clothes, it would not take so long. Looking at the position of the ministers again, there was no one in Zong Zheng Yangfeng's position. Huai Yang secretly said in his heart that it was not good, and bowed to Ji Xuanyuan and said, "Weichen went to find the princess." ”

Ji Xuanyuan waved his hand and acquiesced to him going.

Huai Yang hurriedly walked out of the hall, but he didn't dare to show off, so he pulled Zhang Xian to one place, "Where did the princess go?" ”

Zhang Xian was a small yellow door given to Shuer by the queen when the eldest princess Shuer left the palace and moved into Anfu two years ago. On weekdays, the people who serve Shuer are Huai Yang and Zhang Xian, except for the two maids.

Zhang Xian said, "Where is the princess gone, where will the slave know......"

"Honestly, is the princess now with Concubine Zong's brother Zongzheng Gongzi?"

"What, what do you say?"

Huai Yang sneered, "The dealings between the prince of Zongzheng and the princess these times, have you helped to pull the strings in it?" ”

Zhang Xian jumped up in shock, "Without evidence, you can't just wronged me casually!" Although I have not been with you as long as you have been with the princess, you cannot look down on me and slander me in this way. ”

"Really? Have I slandered you? Then why did you not make a big salute but a regular salute when you saw the prince of Zongzheng today, and now that you are with the princess, how can you have so much contact with him? ”

Zhang Xian still denied it, but the more fierce the denial, the more unnatural he was first, Huai Yang was too lazy to worry about anything with him, when it came to responsibility, Huai Yang felt that he was also responsible, knowing the princess's thoughts, but he still connived at her not to pursue it. Huai Yang turned around to find the whereabouts of the princess and Zong Zheng Yangfeng, Zhang Xian was stunned for a moment, and then followed closely.

Huaiyang searched for most of the East Palace, and only then did he hear the voices of the princess and Zong Zhengyangfeng behind the rockery in the backyard.

But Huai Yang immediately regretted it as soon as he took that step, and the step he took was comparable to seeing the princess and Zong Zheng Yangfeng, just a glance, he regretted it.

Zong Zheng Yangfeng lowered his head and lightly imprinted his lips on Shure's lips, there were no more words between them, and the sound of light breathing disrupted everyone from now on. Huai Yang retreated with just a glance, and a rockery cut off the line of sight between him and them. Even if he understood that one day he would have to face, but at that moment, standing in the space that they ignored, he still couldn't suppress the slight coldness of his whole body that suddenly struck.

Eventually, he decided to leave. But as soon as he turned around, he realized what a strict consequence the impulse of the princess and Zongzheng Yangfeng would incur.

There were two people standing behind him, one was Ji Xuanyuan with a cold face, and the other was Ren Qiwan, one of the many women in the palace.

Huai Yang's face was cold, but Ren Qiwan didn't look surprised, as if he had known it for a long time. Huaiyang's heart darkened, in this game, he lost.

Huaiyang immediately knelt down, but Ji Xuanyuan didn't seem to see it, walked straight to the back of the rockery, and smashed it on the rockery with a punch, the sharp edges and corners on the rockery cut Ji Xuanyuan's hand, and Huaiyang had already seen that the rockery was dyed with a striking red. The sound of vibration woke up the young boys and girls who were still in love.

The first person to react was Zong Zheng Yangfeng, who quickly knelt on the ground and arched his hand, "Uncle! It's me who abruptly made the princess, today's matter has nothing to do with the princess, please forgive the emperor! ”

Then it was Shuer, I don't know if he intentionally or unintentionally covered Zong Zheng Yangfeng, "Daddy, this matter was done by his daughter, and his daughter forced him out, if Daddy must blame, blame his daughter!" ”

"Big night, you guys...... Very good! Very good! Ji Xuanyuan said coldly, and then looked sideways at Huaiyang, as if he had thought of something, "Is it you?" ”

Before Huaiyang could speak, Shuer had already spoken up, "It has nothing to do with my brother, my brother never knew about this matter, it was my daughter's idea alone." ”

Ren Qiwan glanced at Huai Yang and softly defended him, "Your Majesty, if it was Huai Yang, there would be no need to be so surprised by Huai Yang's expression!" ”

Ji Xuanyuan glanced at Huai Yang coldly, and Huai Yang noticed that Ji Xuanyuan's ears were already the color of red with anger, which was a phenomenon that only happened when he was extremely angry. And he has only seen Ji Xuanyuan so angry twice, once because An Sui was assassinated by the Queen Mother's people, and once now.

Ji Xuanyuan stared at Zong Zheng Yangfeng tightly, and his voice was the kind of low voice that had been extremely depressed, "Zong Zheng Yangfeng, the people of the Zongzheng family, very good." You called me an uncle, not the emperor, did you want to remind me that there is still this level of kinship? You are very smart, or the people of the Zongzheng family are very smart. Huaiyang, you go find someone from Jingzhaosi! ”

Ji Xuanyuan meant to let the people of Jing Zhaosi come and take Zong Zheng Yangfeng down for punishment.

"Your Majesty!" Huai Yang hurriedly spoke, "Your Majesty, if people from the outer city enter, the princess's reputation will be ruined." Please think twice! ”

Ren Qiwan also persuaded at this time, "Your Majesty, in the end, the reputation of the princess is more important." If you want to punish the son of Zongzheng, you don't have to affect the reputation of the princess, in the end, the princess still has to marry. ”

Ji Xuanyuan's expression moved slightly, he still cared about the eldest princess.

"Yes! Emperor! At this time, the people of Jingzhaosi came in and asked about the crime of Zongzheng Gongzi, which must involve many reasons, and this matter will definitely be uploaded to the admonition, once the admonition platform group rises up, it will not be Zongzheng Gongzi alone, the princess and even Anfu, the queen, and Concubine Xu will all be ......" Huai Yang stopped talking, he was gambling, betting on Ji Xuanyuan's feelings.

Ji Xuanyuan was noncommittal, but he closed his eyes, and the rise and fall of his chest still showed his anger at this time, but he seemed to be trying his best to regulate his anger, so as not to burst out if he couldn't suppress it. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said coldly to Zong Zhengyangfeng, "Today's events, I have written them down first." You, do it yourself. ”

Ren Qiwan said, "It's been a long time since the emperor came out, if you don't return to the palace, I'm afraid it will always cause some suspicion." ”

Ji Xuanyuan raised his leg to leave, Zong Zhengyangfeng barely pulled out a bleak smile, kowtowed and thanked him, "Thank you, uncle!" ”

The Zongzheng family, Ji Xuanyuan has always been kind, not only for the kindness of the year, but also for the reason why the queen and Zongzheng Zhaorong are somewhat, so the people of the Zongzheng family have been allowed to treat Ji Xuanyuan privately with family courtesy. Maybe it's because Zongzheng Yangfeng is a little used to being called on weekdays, and at this time he still forgets the distinction between monarchs and ministers. That is, such a sentence of "uncle" was so harsh in Ji Xuanyuan's ears at this time. He swept Zong Zhengyangfeng coldly, and then glanced at Ren Qiwan meaningfully. Eventually, he turned around and left.

After the prince's wedding, the eldest princess was recalled to the palace, and then she was confined to the Feixiang Pavilion, which was a pavilion far away from the residence of all the concubines, Ji Xuanyuan made a decree, without his instructions, no one was allowed to visit the eldest princess. Several maids around her were all secretly wiped out, and although Zhang Xian and Huai Yang left their lives, they were no longer allowed to serve Shuer closely, at most they looked at her from a distance outside the pavilion.

The eldest princess has been locked in the room for less than half a month, and she doesn't think about tea and dinner all day, sometimes she is sad and painful, sometimes she looks out the window in a daze, and sometimes she will read the words Zipei of Zong Zheng Yangfeng, and sometimes she cries and mutters something like "Daddy won't let him go, Daddy will kill us" and the like. Seeing that his body was getting thinner and thinner day by day, Huaiyang had no choice but to ask his former acquaintances in the palace to take the message to Anfu.

It was the only person he could turn to.

But the news from outside is getting worse and worse, first Zong Zheng Yangfeng's father is introspective, and then he begged to degrade himself to his official position, but Ji Xuanyuan didn't pay attention. Then Concubine Zong and Concubine Liao entered the palace together to ask Ji Xuanyuan for peace, Ji Xuanyuan rewarded Concubine Liao, and called her the prince's concubine, giving a word for good, but there was no expression for Concubine Zong, and even a little snubbed. Moreover, the concubines in the harem who had some dealings with the queen, including Ren Qiwan and Zongzheng Zhaorong, were all snubbed, and instead registered a palace maid with the surname Wen as Chongyi, which obviously meant a little bit to the queen's face.

Then another even worse news came the next day, that is, Ji Xuanyuan suddenly agreed to Zong Zhengyu's request to guard the border half a year ago. Three days later, he was asked to leave, and the matter at the border has always been a problem for Ji Xuanyuan.

Another half a month passed, when Huaiyang was almost desperate, but Xu Mingchang suddenly came to pass the decree, saying that the emperor would come to see the eldest princess after lunch.

Huai Yangzheng was puzzled, Xu Mingchang said, it was Lord Qian Sizhong of the Taiwan who suddenly gave advice to the emperor these days, but he didn't know what he said, but he didn't know very well, and later Lord Gongsun also persuaded a few words. It seems that the emperor has touched something, so he suddenly wants to see the princess.

Huaiyang understood when he heard it, Lord Qian Sizhong Qian and Master Gongsun Luo were both people who had some friendship with An Sui, just for the eldest princess, An Sui would go to ask them for help, but it made Huaiyang a little surprised.

Shuer leaned against the window, her eyes had lost their former brilliance, and when she crossed Huaiyang and threw herself into the distance, she was a little ethereal and distracted, "I didn't expect that in the end, only my sister was good to me." Whether it's a mame or a, when you want to come and ask them, they must avoid it! ”

Huaiyang was speechless, Shuer's intelligence was always beyond his expectations, although he was in the well, he was still clear about the warmth and coldness of the people outside. But the more intelligent he is, the more distressing it is.

Shuer didn't wait for Huaiyang to speak, but he was already in tears, "Zipei has never heard from him, and his father said that he will not let Zipei go." Brother, if something happens to Zipei, don't hide it from me. ”

Huaiyang couldn't, he could only comfort, "Now that there is no news, it is the best news, if, if, he is fine, but you have dragged your body down, can I, can I say that he is not sad?" ”

When Shure heard this, he suddenly burst into tears, "Brother! ”

Huai Yang lowered his head and stretched out his hand to cover his expression with his sleeve, one day, when he wanted to comfort her, he would have to take the name of another man, and the person who could comfort her in the end would not be himself.
