Mrs. Zuo only felt that she was tired and hungry, basically didn't eat anything at noon, and after being frightened in the afternoon, she couldn't get out of the palace in the end, and was brought here by Wei Guifei, but she didn't dare to move at will, so she could only stiffen up there, tired and hungry, coupled with nervousness and anxiety, she felt that she was about to collapse.

Wei Guifei didn't look in a hurry, the lady in charge stood beside her, she refused to be served by her grandmother, she took off the hair ornament and armor on her head like a novice, those red gold and precious stones flickered in the dancing candle flames, approaching people's eyes, Mrs. Zuo only felt that her eyes seemed to hurt.

Wei Guifei took off her gorgeous clothes and changed into a set of water-red bedclothes, woven with fine raw brocade silk, sticking to the delicate skin, smooth and comfortable, she looked at her fingers in the candlelight.

The white jade-like fingers are full of roots, the shallot-like nails are transparent and moist, and the pearl shells seem to be smooth, only a little red dancome is painted between the nails, the color is beautiful but not tacky, only a little light on the fingertips, it is like a spring light with a hand.

She suddenly looked back and said to Mrs. Zuo in the shadow in the corner: "Mrs. Zuo, do you think this palace is beautiful?" ”

Mrs. Zuo was stunned by her abrupt question, which was completely different from what she had imagined and predicted, and she replied submindedly: "...... Beauty. ”

"Look," Wei Guifei turned her head, her fingers gently caressed her cheeks, her eyes wandered, she looked at herself in the mirror, and said to Mrs. Zuo, as if muttering to herself, "This palace is so beautiful, you have to be careful to please the emperor, don't dare to have a trace of slackness, you say ......"

Her words stopped, her eyes looked at Mrs. Zuo from the mirror, but she didn't look back, "If a woman loses her virginity, and she doesn't like her husband very much, what will happen to her?" ”

Her last sentence was said lightly, but it was like a fluttering cloud, covering Mrs. Zuo's heart, she raised her head, her eyes stared at Wei Guifei tightly, her hands were tightly twisted together in her sleeves, and the sweat soaked her palms in an instant.

She took two steps forward, knelt on the ground with a "plop", and cried out in a sad voice: "Mother! Empress! Please...... I beg you ......"

"What do you want from this palace?" Wei Guifei's tone was soft, but it cut off Mrs. Zuo's pleading, she turned around, sat on the stool and looked at it from a distance, her eyes passed through the candle flame, but there was no temperature of the candle flame, "Please save your daughter from this palace?" Or help you? Or ...... Save your left family? ”

Her voice was colder than the other, like a wind mixed with snowflakes, slashing in her face, making Mrs. Zuo's breathing stop, she stared at Wei Guifei, her eyebrows were picturesque, but the coldness in her eyes was clear.

Wei Guifei looked at her and smiled very slowly, "Madam, what did you think when you made the choice?" Don't you know that there will be success or failure in the world, and today is the luck of King Ning's Mansion and the main palace, but what if it is your luck today? So what will happen to the palace and the Ning Wangfu now? At that time, will you come out to save Hongu? ”

Her tone was gentle, but it revealed a ruthless meaning, and the cool tone made Mrs. Zuo unable to speak, Mrs. Zuo stared, and crystal tears rolled down one by one.

Leng Fifteen left dejectedly, Ah Ju also said goodbye, and the Red Sleeves Garden was quiet again.

Xiao'er made the bed, Rong Xi had finished washing, Leng Yixiu sat on the beauty couch, looking at her with a soft gaze, as fine as silk.

Rong Xi smiled lightly, "How is it?" ”

Leng Yixiu understood what she was referring to, nodded and said, "This kind of idea can only be thought of by you." ”

Rong Xi couldn't help laughing, "I'm afraid, Leng Fifteen has the same idea in his heart now." ”

"There's no way to do it," Leng Yixiu said, when suddenly there was a slight sound outside the window.

He turned his head and gently pushed open the window, and a white shadow pierced the night sky, and landed on the window with a blowing wind.

Leng Yixiu stretched out his hand, and the carrier pigeon jumped into his palm, "cooing" twice, and Leng Yixiu took a small bamboo tube from its leg.

The bamboo tube was so delicate that he held it between his fingers, and the carrier pigeon pecked a few grains to eat, and then spread its wings and flew away.

Rong Xi looked at the delicate pale cyan bamboo tube, "Have a letter?" ”

"Yes, it's from the border city," Leng Yixiu said as he poured out the paper roll in the bamboo tube, "I distinguish the relationship network by region and mark it with different colors, and use the corresponding color letterbox for the news that comes from, this is the rule." ”

"Interesting," Rong Xi nodded and couldn't help but praise, she thought that ancient times were not as developed as modern scientific and technological information, there was no network, no mobile phone and no other advanced equipment, carrier pigeons are the fastest and most effective contact methods, and the breeding of carrier pigeons also requires a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and not everyone can afford to raise, like Leng Yixiu, who also divides the area by color, which is really ingenious.

Leng Yixiu unfolded the small note, and a few small words were clearly written on it: Qi Wang Ye'an, the border city is well.

Rong Xi's brows furrowed slightly, Leng Yixiu raised his head just in time to see it, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Rong Xi pointed to the small note, "This kind of news is also worth reporting?" Is this sentence itself also a code word, representing another layer of meaning? ”

Leng Yixiu's eyes lit up, and a hint of appreciation flashed, he took her hand, and a slightly proud and proud smile bloomed on his lips, "Rongxi, you always surprise me everywhere." ”

Rong Xi looked at his expression, raised his eyebrows and said, "Did I guess right?" ”

"Almost," Leng Yixiu nodded, took a teacup, poured a little water into it, and then took out a small red bottle from his sleeve and poured it lightly, and the water in the cup immediately changed color, red as blood.

He threw the small bamboo tube into the water, and soon, the small light cyan bamboo tube slowly became soft and soft, gradually disappeared from its original shape, slowly floated in the water, and finally became a small piece of stationery.

Rong Xi suddenly realized that this small letterbox itself was also a piece of stationery, and what it contained was only simple news on the surface, and what was contained on this letterbox was the most important and critical news.

On the paper floating in the water, white words clearly appeared: Back to the prince, Zuo Lingbin has moved, please instruct.

Rong Xi's eyebrows jumped, "Is that the left deputy general?" Zuo Qinglian's father? ”

"Exactly," Leng Yixiu nodded, his eyes were black and bright, reflecting clear white characters, and the words were clear, "It seems that my message was sent correctly." ”

"What?" Rong Xi asked.

"After leaving the palace, I sent a message to the border city, to Zuo Lingbin," he paused, his tone as cold as a knife, "There is no forgiveness for killing." ”

Zuo Lingbin closed his eyes slightly, but before he closed his eyes, the man opposite him clearly saw the trace of determination in his eyes.

The man picked up the teacup with satisfaction and drank the tea gently, he knew that Zuo Lingbin had already made a decision.

Sure enough, after a long time, Zuo Lingbin opened his eyes, and he looked at the man, "How can General Ben believe you?" What position can you promise to General Ben? ”

Without waiting for the man to answer, he said, "If it is still the position of a general, then wouldn't it be too meaningless for the general to commit treason?" If that's the case, General Ben would rather wait here for the killing order and still have a good reputation! ”

The man lowered his head, his eyelids covered the look in his eyes, and also covered the trace of contempt and disdain in his eyes, he turned his head, looked at Zuo Lingbin, met his eyes, and smiled very slowly, "General Zuo said and laughed. ”

Zuo Lingbin heard his words and breathed a sigh of relief, he had decided to commit treason, so he had to fight for the greatest interests, no matter what, he had to get a guarantee.

His anger was not yet relieved, and he only heard the man say again: "I will not be allowed to give General Zuo the position of officer, on the contrary, General Zuo will leave his career." ”

"What?" General Zuo's eyes were round, and his face was full of disbelief, "What do you mean, are you playing General Ben?" ”

"Where," the man said leisurely: "What I said below is true, and it is also true that I want to invite General Zuo to go to Mingxiao, but I don't want to go to Mingxiao as an official." ”

"What else can there be? Could it be a business? Zuo Lingbin smiled briefly, but there was no trace of fluctuation in his eyes, he really didn't think it was a good idea.

"That's right," who expected the man to actually nodded, "It's almost the same if it's not business, does General Zuo think you can really be an official?" In my opinion, you should be incognito and say goodbye to your current life completely, so that you can completely get rid of Dazhao and get rid of King Ning, otherwise you ......"

His eyes flashed, and his tone sank, "General Zuo should be more familiar with King Ning's methods than Xia, do you really think that if you go to tomorrow night with a swagger, you can hide from Leng Yixiu's killer?" ”

Zuo Lingbin was stunned, he naturally knew that King Ning had countless secret guards by his side, his whereabouts were mysterious, and there were countless killing moves, and he even knew that after so many years, Leng Yixiu thought that Leng Yixiu wanted someone's life, and it seemed that he had never missed it, but no one could find evidence.

He admitted that the man had a point, but ...... Leaving the official career, he has always been a little hesitant, which is too far from what he imagined.

The man looked at his changing eyes and continued: "General Zuo, what are you born and died for, and what are you fighting on the battlefield for? Isn't it for real money and a better life? ”

A smile appeared in his eyes, "Don't tell me what you are doing to protect your family and defend the country, for the sake of the common people in the world, the people of Li, you don't believe those nonsense." ”

He said it directly, and Zuo Lingbin couldn't help but be shocked.
