CHAPTER XXII

Feng Nu was instantly shocked by her guess, her face turned a little pale, her fingertips were slightly clasped on the inside of her other wrist, the painful touch allowed her to keep her composure, she only nodded stiffly, but did not dare to speak.

The Queen Mother Lafayette looked at the appearance of the wind slave, and said with a smile: "Wind slave girl, you know that you are a treasure now, and the future of our Du family is tied to you." ”

Such a big hat made the wind slave stiffen instantly, and immediately stood up, knelt down and kowtowed, and his voice trembled: "The slave is terrified." ”

The Queen Mother smiled at Mama Cui, and stretched out her hand to point at the wind slave: "Look at this girl, she is still a child, the mourning family just laughed at her, but it scared her enough, she is really a coward." ”

Cui Mama saw the Queen Mother smiling like this, but she saw that there was no smile at all in the majestic and cold eyes of the Queen Mother Chu, she was excited, so she immediately smiled and said: "The wind slave was originally a family child, and he has always been an honest and obedient person, Lafayette, you suddenly took such a bold shelf and pressed it to a little slave, don't say it's her, even the old slave is afraid that his heart will jump out of his heart." ”

The Queen Mother sneered: "Although what the mourning family said is a joke, it is not a joke, and the truth that affects the whole body, we all have to think clearly and understand it when we are standing here panting." ”

As she spoke, she seemed to have forgotten that the Wind Slave was still trembling on her knees.

Cui Mama and all the people who could stay in the inner hall were the cronies brought out by the Queen Mother from the Du family, and all of them knelt on the ground with a 'poof', and they all said in unison: "The slaves (slaves) are panicking." ”

The Queen Mother half-closed her eyes and said lightly: "What are you doing, is the Mourning family a very harsh master?" ”

People who have been serving for a long time know that Galeries Lafayette is unpredictable. The thunder, rain and dew all have deep meanings, and at this moment, they naturally have to be obedient, and they all say 'don't dare'.

After a while, the Queen Mother put down the teacup in her hand, reached out and nodded on the shoulder of the wind slave, motioned for her to get up, and looked at the others: "Get up." ”

When everyone saw that Mama Cui and Feng Nu had gotten up, they dared to get up one after another.

The Queen Mother looked at the pale Feng slave and smiled slightly: "You girl, you are the mourning family watched grow up, although you are not your own granddaughter, but also treat you as a granddaughter, the mourning family believes that you are an understanding person, so they refuted the lantern burner too let the snow slave go to serve the national teacher's mentions, but let you go, if you give birth to a 'savior' of our Du family for the mourning family in the future, the mourning family will definitely give you and your brother out of slavery, so that your brothers and sisters have a good future, and your father must be very pleased." ”

These words seem to be gentle and kind, but the cold and bone-soaked meaning in them makes Feng Nu only feel cold in his heart as if he has fallen into an ice cave.

This is a naked warning, if she is obedient, then her father and brother are safe, otherwise there is no place to die.

Feng Nu grew up in the palace, lowered his eyes, and said respectfully: "Yes." ”

The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, and looked at Mama Cui with a smile: "After talking for so long, the mourning family has forgotten, our Feng slave can be regarded as married, you go to the third drawer of the dresser in the palace to take the Nanzhu butterfly hairpin in the pearl shell box to make a congratulatory gift to this girl." ”

Cui Mama immediately nodded and said with a smile: "You are really willing, the gilded emerald on the top is extremely rare." ”

The Queen Mother looked the wind slave up and down, and said lazily: "The mourning family is old, this thing is fashionable, and it looks better on a young girl's head." ”

Feng Nu immediately answered obediently: "But Feng Nu has looked at Lafayette for so many years, and he has not changed a bit. ”

The Queen Mother smiled faintly and did not answer.

……

Feng Nu lowered his head and silently followed Mama Cui all the way, Mama Cui suddenly stopped, turned to look at her, and said softly: "Feng Nu, don't be afraid, the Queen Mother Lafayette has always had clear rewards and punishments, you just need to keep your duty." ”

The wind slave tightly dragged the delicate sandalwood box containing pearls in his hand, and suddenly said: "Mama, this child is not conceived when I say I can conceive, if I can't conceive, what should I do?" ”

Feng Nu's voice was a little low, and Mama Cui looked at her gloomy expression, and sighed lightly: "Doctor Luo has already dispensed medicine there, I will have someone send it to the temple for you in a while, you can take it every day, and there should be the Huaizi medicine of the Shingon Palace, but that thing is a little more evil, I'm afraid it is the medicine of the tiger and wolf, if you can not use it, you don't need it." ”

Cui Mama paused: "In short, this time, the Queen Mother has placed great hopes on you, don't let her down, you should also be angry, let you go to serve the national teacher, Doctor Luo is giving you a pulse, and has already said that you have a good foundation and are a good child, and the national teacher is close to her daughter for the first time, and it is natural to be obsessed with you, you have to take advantage of the opportunity. ”

The hand in the wind slave's sleeve tightly buckled the box with the hairpin button, and nodded: "Yes." ”

Mama Cui saw that she was supple and stable, and she was also satisfied in her heart, in the end, she was a person from her own family, no matter how she looked at it, she was calmer.

Then, the two of them prepared to leave the Yongning Palace one after the other, but as soon as they walked to the door of the Yongning Palace, they bumped into a group of women wearing white long gauze and holding lotus flowers.

Xue Nu's sharp eyes saw Feng Nu dragging a delicate box in his hand, and immediately knew that this was the queen mother's reward, and immediately his face was gloomy, and he couldn't help but sneer: "Yo, isn't this the first priest of our temple, why, this time I didn't serve the national teacher well, but I came to Lafayette to ask for merit and receive the reward?" ”

Feng Nu didn't speak, but Mama Dong's face instantly became gloomy: "Is the master's matter also something that you can discuss as a little maidservant?" ”

Mama Dong is the most powerful old man around the Queen Mother, and she has always been very majestic in the palace, even the female officials of the six Shang are respectful when they see her, and even the masters in the palace are extremely polite to her.

Xue Nu was only jealous for a while, and only then did she dare to make a sudden attack, and when she saw Mama Dong speak, she immediately didn't dare to say more, and only coldly took her eyes to gouge out the wind slave.

Mrs. Lamplighter plucked the rosary with one hand and chuckled: "Mama Dong is still so majestic, and Xue Nu is just joking with Feng Nu, people go to high places, their sisters have a good future, where is the little girl unhappy." ”

Mama Dong and Feng Nu both know that Mrs. Lamplighter is the most critical person in this matter, without her, Mrs. Feng Nu can't do anything at all, and Mama Dong naturally has to be too polite to the Lamplighter: "What Mrs. Shi said is true." ”

The lamplighter looked at them too coldly, she didn't seem to bother to care about it anymore, and a casual smile curled up at the corner of her lips: "Okay, it's time for the lunch class, and the main palace is one step ahead." ”

"Don't dare to disturb the palace master Qing Xiu, send off the palace master of the burning lamp." Mama Dong said immediately, and then Feng Nu also bent down respectfully, and folded her hands to send the lamplighter and her party away.

When the lamplighter passed by the wind slave, he suddenly stopped, turned to look at the wind slave who was bowing, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "You, raise your head." ”

Feng Nu's heart tightened inexplicably, but he still raised his head obediently, but he still lowered his eyes: "Mrs. Shi." ”

The lamplighter's too sharp gaze swept around her face, and the suspicion in his eyes grew heavier and heavier, but it seemed uncertain.

The inexplicable uneasiness in Feng Nu's heart became stronger and stronger, and she quickly glanced at Mama Cui and cast a gaze for help.

Mama Cui didn't know why the lamplighter asked the wind slave to stop, and thought that she was going to embarrass the wind slave, so she naturally came up and said with a smile: "Palace master, what's the matter, don't you know the wind slave?" ”

The lamplighter glanced at Mama Cui, his eyes swept around Feng Nu's face and body, and said meaningfully: "No, I just recognize it too much." With that, she suddenly turned and walked away.

As soon as the lamplighter left, the wind slave breathed a sigh of relief, but the uneasy shadow in his heart did not fade because of the lamplighter's last glance.

"What's wrong with the Burning Lamp Palace Master?" Cui Mama looked at the wind slave suspiciously, although the wind slave was uneasy in her heart, she also shook her head blankly.

Mama Cui couldn't see what was going on, so she had to send the wind slave to the door, and then said, "Okay, you go back first, and in a while, let people send the medicine over." ”

The Wind Slave nodded and turned to leave.

……

"Palace Master, did you see that something was wrong?" Xue Nu watched the lamplighter walk slowly in front, and she still couldn't help but be curious in her heart, especially the person who was seen to be wrong was still her 'thorn in the eye', so she took a few steps up and talked to the lamplighter.

The lamplighter glanced at the snow slave too slowly, stretched out his hand and slowly pulled the jade rosary in his hand, and said with a smile: "If the palace master said that the wind slave, maybe he is still an untrained chick, can you believe it?" ”

"What?" Xue Nu's eyes widened in disbelief almost instantly, and he looked at the Burning Lamp Master, and his expression couldn't help but become excited: "How is this possible, didn't you say that no one can escape from the Sound Array?" ”

The lamplighter is too much, and while walking, he said lightly: "But the face of the wind slave does not seem to have the charm of a love woman, and that kind of unconscious charm is something that ordinary people can't find at all." ”

Xue Nu was silent, and the cold and gloomy light in the apricot kernel's eyes kept flickering.

If this is true, then the good days of the wind slave will come to an end!

……*……*……*……*……*……

The wind slave returned to the temple a little distractedly, the moon slave was leading people to clean up in the courtyard, these days, the guards in some key places of the temple were all replaced by the crane guards who controlled the crane prison and the disguise, and the apse was not allowed to be approached except for the wind slave and the moon slave, so the wind slave was not afraid of being seen anything, and when she saw the moon slave greeting her, she just nodded casually, and hurried to the inner hall.

Seeing the wind slave's troubled appearance, the moon slave couldn't help frowning slightly, and watched the wind slave's footsteps enter her own residence a little vainly, she hesitated for a moment, and ordered the lower people to watch the door, and then turned around and went to another side hall.

……

As soon as the moon slave entered the door and sat down, he was in a daze alone, when he heard the girl's childish and gentle voice outside the door: "Sister Fengnu, I heard that you are back, Hua Nu made a new rose sugar cake, send some to my sister." ”

Feng Nu originally wanted to refuse, but remembering Hua Nu's delicate and timid face, he sighed: "Come in." ”

Hua Nu heard the response, and was happily pushing the door in, but the moment he saw Feng Nu, his face flashed with shock: "Sister, what's wrong with you, why are you crying?" ”

Feng Nu was stunned for a moment, and reached out to touch his cheek, only to find that his face was wet, and his face was already full of tears.

She was shocked, and then immediately covered her face with her sleeve and wiped it casually: "It's okay...... It's okay, it's just ...... It's just dust in his eyes. ”

"Sister Yanzi, but what did the Queen Mother Lafayette punish you, or what did you say, don't worry, Lafayette treats you differently from us." As soon as the flower slave was in a hurry, he couldn't help but call the wind slave's nickname, hurriedly put down the tray in his hand, squatted in front of the wind slave, and took her hand to comfort her.

She has always felt that the wind slave is the most calm and self-contained among them, the most master-like, even if she can't be the master in the future, she is also a big housekeeper aunt next to the master, even if she is wronged, the wind slave looks extremely calm and responds properly, she never thought that she would see the wind slave crying silently.

Feng Nu looked at Hua Nu's little face full of worry, she exhaled secretly, tried to calm down her uneasy and confused mood, reached out and patted her face gently: "It's okay, Hua Nu, you go back and rest first, my sister is really just uncomfortable in her eyes." ”

Some things can only be held in the heart, and saying them will affect innocent people.

Hua Nu was just about to say something, when he suddenly heard another knock on the door.

Feng Nu was in a very bad mood, and she just wanted to rest alone for a while, and when someone came to disturb her again and again, she became impatient and said coldly: "I don't see any guests today, you all go down." ”

"Knock knock!" But the people outside the door didn't seem to hear at all, but knocked on the door more vigorously.

"Nine times out of ten, it is such an unruly slave taught by the snow slave!" Hua Nu's face was not good, she raised her eyebrows, got up and walked to the door, she opened the door and leashed, opened the door and was about to teach a lesson to the palace maid or eunuch who did not know the rules at the door, but when she opened the door and saw the person standing at the door, she was instantly stunned.

"Where's the little slut ......."

Standing at the door, the 'little slut' with a feminine and handsome face but an extremely tall figure looked down at the little girl who was two heads shorter than him in front of him expressionlessly, and turned his face to the thick-eyed young man next to him and said, "Bai Seventeen, get this thing away." ”

Bai Qiqi glanced at the small 'thing' in front of his lord, and hesitated slightly: "Where to go?" ”

Yibai said impatiently: "Whatever." ”

Bai Seventeen nodded, he suddenly reached out and dragged the flower slave out directly, and at the moment when she didn't react, he directly clicked her dumb hole and hemp hole, carried the sack and dragged the flower slave on his shoulder, turned around and disappeared at the end of the corridor with a few neat turns.

"What are you going to do!" The wind slave stood up defensively, looking at the tall white-clothed man who walked into the room with a wary expression.

Yibai's tall figure and the momentum of his whole body were compelling, and Feng Nu only felt that he was standing in his room, which instantly made her feel that the originally spacious room was a lot narrower.

Yibai looked at her, her slender and slender eyebrows furrowed slightly: "You are crying, what's the matter, what good did the old witch do?" ”

Yibai has followed Bailichu for many years, and he only knows Bailichu such a master, and the person his master hates is the person he hates, so he naturally doesn't care what status the other party is.

Feng Nu knew that her eyes must still be red and swollen this time, she lowered her eyes and said coldly, "What does it have to do with you?" ”

Seeing the cold face of the wind slave and the cold face, he looked like he was rejecting people thousands of miles away, he felt annoyed inexplicably without knowing where to be, and he sneered: "It naturally has nothing to do with the lord of Ben Feng, but the lord of Ben Feng just happened to see a stupid bird playing a play of turning his face and not recognizing people, one moment he hugged someone and cried a lot, and he squeezed into the bed of a man who didn't matter and slept for several hours, and the next moment he slept with the virtue of not admitting it, which is very strange." ”

"Who do you say is a stupid bird, you are a stupid bird, when did I sleep and you don't admit it!" The wind slave instantly became angry, forgot about what made him sad for a while, and glared at Yibai angrily with his fists clenched.

This bastard thing took that day she just learned that she had to 'serve' the national teacher, she saw something when she was young, she was afraid of the national teacher, she couldn't be afraid of the national teacher, she couldn't stay away from the national teacher at all, how could she be willing to serve the national teacher, not to mention that the snow slave was beaten half to death by the national teacher, and she felt that the road given by the queen mother was her dead end.

Just when she was extremely desperate, she suddenly met the man in front of her, and she didn't know if she was dizzy, or she was too desperate and had no mind, and she forgot that the man in front of her was the old enemy of the temple, and even more slighted her, and she was disgusted with the old enemy, so she hugged him and cried uncontrollably, and was taken back to the control crane prison by him, and was coaxed out of her mind by this bastard with some means, this bastard knew that he did not hesitate to report to his master for half an hour, and then he had the plan of 'Li Dai Tao Stiff'.

It was this 'Li Dai Tao Stiff' plan that made her have to fall into a dilemma again.

She has betrayed the temple and the queen mother because of her own selfishness, and overnight, the belief in allegiance and the master have completely collapsed, and she has no way out, but her family members are still in the Du family.

It made her feel like she was being roasted on a fire, and her stomach and back were tormented.

It was this man who put her in today's desperate situation, and now he dares to laugh at her!

The wind slave looked at Yibai viciously, and couldn't help but clench his hands before he could resist his desire to dismember him with a knife.

What kind of person is Yibai, the killing god in the killing god, naturally extremely sensitive to killing intent, this time seeing the wind slave's increasingly murderous eyes, he became more and more unhappy in his heart, and curled the corners of his lips mockingly: "So you are now admitting that you are sleeping with me?" ”

Feng Nu froze for a moment before realizing what she had said, she instantly blushed and closed her eyes: "Shut your mouth of nonsense." ”

Yibai sneered: "The Lord Ben said that the swallow is a stupid bird." ”

"One...... White! Feng Nu couldn't help but slap the table and squeeze two words out between his teeth.

She really hates his name, and no matter how much she gritted her teeth and screamed, it sounded like an intimate and eccentric!

Yibai looked at the beautiful girl in front of him and jumped to his feet angrily, his cheeks were crimson, but he pulled the corners of his lips, seemed to be quite happy, and seemed to say with extreme contempt: "Don't call it so intimate, don't you have nothing to do with me, or, are you still annoyed that Ben Fengzhu stripped you naked in the dungeon at that time and took a bath is not responsible, Ben Fengzhu has seen many women, if it is not for the bet with Shuangbai, there is no interest in your small body at all, how can he deliberately belittle you." ”

The wind slave couldn't bear it anymore and directly took the teacup on the table and smashed it at him: "Bastard, if you come to humiliate me, your goal has been achieved, get out!" ”

Yibai slightly deviated his face, turned his wrist neatly, and lightly caught the teacup she threw over, looking at her crimson eyes, pale as paper, and slightly trembling shoulders, but his heart was inexplicably soft, his tone was slightly softened, and he only said coldly: "It's His Highness who wants to see you, clean up, and come with me." ”

Feng Nu was stunned for a moment, then trembled slightly, still closed his eyes, and said after a while: "Got it." ”

Yibai looked at her momentum as if she was suddenly weakened, so he added: "Don't worry, since you have already done things for the Mingguang Palace, there are some things that Your Highness will take care of." ”

The wind slave just waved his hand tiredly: "You go out first." ”

Yibai glanced at her with a somewhat unpredictable expression, then turned to leave, closing the door at the same time.

……*……*……*……

"Is that all?" Behind the long dark gold and red shark bead gauze tent, the slender figure elegantly half leaned on the gorgeous soft couch, and a cool voice sounded behind the curtain.

"Back to Your Highness, this is the matter of the Queen Mother Lafayette handing over the slave maid, and the slave and maid dare not hide anything." The wind slave knelt outside the veil with his hands down, and said respectfully, not daring to look at the people behind the veil.

The man behind the curtain said lightly: "Well, you go, if there is anything you think is wrong, just let someone tell you about it." ”

Feng Nu hesitated for a moment, but still gritted his teeth and said: "Back to Your Highness, the slave maid still has something to report, today the Queen Mother asked Doctor Luo to come to check the pulse of the slave maid, and today's lamp burner Taibiao Xiàn is also a little strange." ”

The person behind the curtain looked at Shuangbai on the side, Shuangbai nodded, walked out of the curtain, and handed her a palm-sized silver carved lotus flower inlaid with mother-of-pearl in his hand: "Whether it is the medicine of Yongning Palace or Shingon Palace, you don't have to move, just hand it over to our people first, this box is the Qing Shou Palace, but you can go to the Shougong sand on your body, if someone doesn't forcibly examine your body, you won't find that you are still a virgin." ”

When Feng Nu took the box, his face turned crimson and pale, and his hands trembled violently: "Yes." ”

Talking about such a daughter's private affairs in front of a group of men only made her feel full of shyness and humiliation.

Shuangbai seemed to see her mood, raised his hand to help her, and smiled warmly: "Feng slave, no matter who you are on today, choosing and betraying is always a very painful thing, but the more painful thing than choosing is - hesitation, being in Cao Ying's heart in Han, will eventually harm others and yourself." ”

The Wind Slave shuddered, then nodded, turned and fled.

Yibai looked at her back, his eyes flashing slightly.

Shuangbai saw Yibai's white eyes, and he narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Yibai, you won't really fall in love with that girl, it's a person from the Du family, or a person from the temple." ”

Yibai turned his eyes and glanced at Shuangbai coldly: "You kid, you've been dissatisfied with your desires recently, you have been in charge of the heavens and the earth, and you have gone to other people's beds, Lao Tzu really wants to go to her, Guan Du's family and the temple have a copper plate?" ”

Shuangbai's face turned cold in an instant, and he couldn't help but reprimand: "In front of Your Highness, you don't know what to say, vulgar!" ”

Every time he saw Shuangbai, he couldn't help but think, why did this guy have such a beautiful face, he was clearly a big head soldier in the military camp who had never been taught!

Yibai then remembered where he was, and suddenly retracted, and looked at the gorgeous shark bead veil tent with some uneasiness, but suddenly heard the people in the curtain chuckle, and his voice was as cold as water: "Heh, Yibai is right, even if he falls in love with that girl, he just wants it, there is nothing that can't be done, I control the crane prison is full of first-class beauties, with an ordinary-looking girl next to Aze, why not." ”

Shuangbai was stunned for a moment, a little suspicious of his ears: "Your Highness? ”

The man behind the curtain said slowly: "I'm afraid that the demon nun who burned the lamp noticed something, and the wind slave is still a complete body, and sooner or later it will be exposed to people." ”

Shuangbai eyebrows: "As His Highness deduced earlier, the demon nun who burned the lamp really colluded with the Queen Mother and wanted to do wrong, what should we do?" ”

The person behind the curtain seemed to say casually: "The grandmother of this palace wants people to be pregnant with Aze's seed, then let her wait, my father's health is getting worse and worse, this palace really wants to see my grandmother's appearance from ecstasy to despair, it must be very interesting, as for the wind slave, if Yibai likes it, just ask her, if you don't like it, then keep it, if there is that day, it must be a good show, hehe......." ”

The man from behind the curtain was cool and pleasant, as if it was quite pleasant, but it was so pleasant that it felt inexplicable, like a terrible cold wind blowing on the River Styx.

The people who were waiting in the temple shivered.

His Royal Highness's mind has never been confusing, and he doesn't play cards according to the rules, but whenever His Royal Highness says that there is a good show, someone will definitely be put on the stage by him, like a marionette on the stage, or in pain, or a river of blood.

His Royal Highness only likes the people who sing on this stage - singing, reading, doing, and playing are all 'lively'.

Shuangbai hesitated for a moment, and then continued to ask: "Your Highness, Lord Qiu, you haven't been to see her for three days, and she hasn't stepped out of the apse for three days. ”

The figure behind the curtain shook the gorgeous black peacock feather fan in his hand, and said with a smile: "Oh. ”

Shuangbai, Yibai and the others waited for a long time before they realized that their master's answer was really only one - 'oh'.

……*……*……

"Si Shao, why did you get up so early?" Ning Chun looked at the bright sky outside the window, couldn't help yawning, and held a carved lotus carp wrapped in gold copper basin filled with water and rested it on the shelf next to the bed.

After Qiu Yebai finished pranayama, he got off the bed with his clothes on, and said lightly: "It is best to get up early to practice pranayama in the morning, Chun'er, if you are still sleepy, go and rest." ”

So saying, she went to the basin and washed up.

Ning Chun looked at the white and thin back of Autumn Leaves, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, Si Shao's favorite thing is to sleep lazy, this habit is still learned from the old immortals, when do you like to get up early and exercise in the morning?

But she knew that Si Shao was in a bad mood these days, and she was becoming more and more silent, always absent-minded, or looking at the sky thoughtfully, and her mood was depressed.

She is not a shrewd person like Ning Qiu, she can talk to Si Shao about things, and she can only use her own medical skills to take care of Si Shao, but Si Shao is obviously sick this time, which makes her very helpless and powerless.

There was a knock at the door.

Ning Chun turned his head to open the door: "The moon slave sent it early today, but it was quite early. ”

But when Ning Chun opened the door, he suddenly slammed the door shut.

Autumn leaves looked at her a little strangely: "What's wrong with you?" ”

Ning Chun was a little nervous, and he wanted to speak for a long time, but before he could speak, he heard a man's gentle and clear voice outside: "Little White Donor, the poor monk has sent you breakfast, are you in the hall?" ”

When Akiba Bai heard this, his face turned pale, and the towel in his hand instantly fell into the basin.

Ning Chun immediately said, "Master, I'll go and send that person away immediately, okay?" ”

Qiu Yebai hesitated for a moment and didn't speak, and a man's voice sounded outside the door: "Little White Donor, are you inside?" ”

Akiba Bai closed his eyes: "Let him in." ”
