Chapter XVIII
Early the next morning, Chen Zixiu finally couldn't rest assured that his little cousin was relieved, and sent the little eunuch Xi'er to inquire about the situation of the Qianji Palace last night, not wanting that Xi'er to be very smart, knowing that his little master cared about Lin Xiaozhu, he got up early and went to the imperial dining room to get breakfast and asked someone about it, and quickly told everything he knew.
"The emperor beat Ike?" I can't hide this if I want to, and when the emperor is angry, he won't kill a few people one day to deter those who have different intentions. Gonggong Deng did not deliberately conceal it, just to let everyone know that if he offended the emperor, there would be no good fruit to eat, and those who knew each other would be more peaceful, and the emperor would be less angry, and they would be less unlucky.
Chen Zixiu held his breath, cursing the perverted behavior of the tyrant in his heart, and hastily had breakfast, without waiting for Murong Zhen and Qin Feng, he only ordered the little eunuch guarding the door to leave a message, and hurried to Luoyu Hall with Xi'er.
Luoyu Hall is a relatively wide palace group in the back garden of the palace, the main hall has two side halls, and there are more than a dozen small cross courtyards, and there are five small masters and more than a dozen small attendants living in it. Lin Aike lives in the North Warm Pavilion of the East Side Palace.
"Little Master Lin can get up?" When he came to the courtyard of Luoyu Palace, he saw the little eunuch sweeping snow in the courtyard, and he couldn't wait to ask out loud.
The little eunuch threw away a big broom and saluted politely, and replied respectfully: "Little Prince Lin has just gotten up." Junior Lord Shen and Junior Lord Chu are visiting him! ”
Since it has risen, it means that people are still awake. Chen Zixiu relaxed slightly, and continued to ask as he walked forward: "How is Lin Xiaogongzi's health?" No fever, right? Has the doctor come to see it? What time did you come back last night? ”
"No one came to the Imperial Doctor. Little Lord Lin only came back this morning. ”
I only came back early this morning? It's so cold...... Wasn't he tortured all night? He didn't even announce the imperial doctor......
Chen Zixiu stopped suddenly, turned around and glared at the little eunuch, who didn't know why, thought that he had said the wrong thing, looked at him worriedly, and felt rude, so he quickly lowered his eyelashes and bowed slightly to the side.
Chen Zixiu opened his mouth and wanted to curse, but he knew that this person was just a rough man who swept in the courtyard, and he couldn't enter the inner hall to wait, and he didn't know what was going on in the room, so he had to grind his teeth hatefully, turned around and went in quickly, and threw a piece of broken silver to the little eunuch before leaving. "In the future, I will be more attentive to Lin Xiaogongzi's affairs. If there's anything wrong, you can go to Zhenlong Hall to find me. ”
The little eunuch took the broken silver sleeve in the wide sleeve, and responded "yes" with a stack, seeing that the nobleman was far away, he wiped the cold sweat that was scared out of his head, and when the cold wind blew, he sneezed, and tremblingly picked up the broom and continued to sweep the snow. Before the sun rises, he'll have to clean up all the land on the east side of the main road!
Chen Zixiu entered the east side hall and walked towards the North Warm Pavilion. Originally, he was worried that Echo had made such a big mistake that the tyrant would throw him back into the dungeon after tossing him, so he didn't want to send him back here.
Does this mean that the tyrant still likes Echo a lot?
But it's not a good thing to brag about......
"Master, Lord Lin Xiaojiren God blesses, it will be fine." Xi'er whispered comforting.
"I've borrowed your good words." Chen Zixiu slowly exhaled a breath, calmed the depression in his heart, and quickened his pace.
Before he arrived at the door of the Warm Pavilion, he saw the little eunuch waiting for Lin Aike walking out safely, leaning sideways and lifting the thick cotton curtain, with a smile on his face, and respectfully said to the people in the door: "Little Lord Shen, Little Lord Chu, beware of the threshold." ”
Chen Zixiu paused and stood still.
A slender and tall figure appeared inside the door, and when he fully stood up, he would ignore everything around him, and only the face that was as pure as white jade could be seen in his eyes.
What is shocking, Chen Zixiu only knew it when he went to the palace two years ago. And the person who made him unable to take his eyes off when he first saw him was Shen Yifei.
He thought that his father's favorite Aunt Luo was already very beautiful (he didn't have the opportunity to see other people's beautiful aunts), and he didn't want to compare with this Shen Yifei, so he still fell behind.
This person, who seems to have the favor of God, not only looks good, but also has no bad knowledge, thanks to his maternal grandfather Dong Ge Lao, who has taken him with him since he was a child to teach. Shen Yifei is not only smart, but also hard-working, at the age of fourteen he was promoted, originally wanted to shine in the palace examination in the spring of the second year, but did not want to be just three days before the exam, his parents went to the temple on the outskirts of the city to enjoy the snow and plum blossoms, and on the way back they met bandits, both of whom were killed. Fortunately, Shen Yifei suffered a little cold that day, sweated at home, and escaped a catastrophe. It's just that when the bad news came, his minor illness also became a major illness, and he lingered on the sickbed for nearly a month. Shen's father's family is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, and the bad news has passed and it will take ten days and a half to wait for the clansmen to come to the door, and the collection of the deceased, the construction of the funeral shed, the distribution of white stickers, the reception of the people who came to mourn, etc., all depend on the help of the eldest master of the Dong family and several of his sons and nephews.
Because Chen Zixiu is a concubine, he didn't go out to Shen's father to incense back then, but went to the eldest brother, second brother and eldest sister. When I came back, I listened to my eldest sister praise Shen Dashao, adding a little girl's heart.
Everyone thought that Shen Yifei would keep filial piety in his hometown in Jiangnan for three years, and he didn't want his parents to be buried, so he took a little scholar into Beijing and went straight to his grandfather's house, it is said that he didn't even have time to pack his luggage.
How did you enter the palace later, and it is estimated that the emperor should admire his beauty and put pressure on Old Man Dong?
Even Dong Ge's grandson dared to move...... In this world, who else is the faint monarch who dare not move?
"Master, the two little masters have gone far." Xi'er saw that the master was still standing in place and looking at the end of the passage that was already empty, and couldn't help but remind in a whisper, while not forgetting to smile at Haode, a friend who had been guarding the door.
Ping'an said kindly: "My master knew that Chen Xiaozhu was coming, and he didn't even eat breakfast, so he waited for Chen Xiaozhu to come to the door!" ”
Chen Zixiu came back to his senses and hurriedly stepped forward.
"Kerr! You- what the hell did he do to you?! ”
When he entered the room, he saw his little cousin's red and swollen eyes, as well as the strange posture lying on the bed, Chen Zixiu's heart suddenly became nameless!
"Cousin, I'...... I'm fine. Lin Aike saw the other party's terrifying face and knew that he had been misunderstood, so he quickly got up and sat up, signaling that he was not injured.
Chen Zixiu didn't believe it, drove away the two attendants, and stepped forward to pick up his pants.
"Cousin, cousin!" Lin Aike's face was flushed with shame, and he grabbed his pants with both hands, but as a result, he was small and had little strength, and he was still succeeded by the other party.
