The afternoon sun shines on the clouds, splashing thousands of layers of thick ink. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info With the wind blowing, the clouds are sparse and sparse back and forth. It's like a fish in a pond, cruising in the middle. In the imperial dining room, Wanning was boiling a bowl of rice wine with great interest.

According to the requirements of the holy decree, at this time, Wan Ning had already left the palace. Now Wanning is elated. But she hadn't boiled rice wine for a while, so she rolled up her sleeves and bent down to check the heat herself. In the hot weather, she was sweating profusely.

Naturally, because Liang Yuzhen in the palace was wronged into the execution room. As her eldest brother, Xiao Yihan, naturally stayed in the palace and then looked at the situation. So the plan to leave the palace was put on hold. Wan Ning is still the maid in front of the palace and still stays in the palace.

This news is simply great news for Wanning. She didn't care about what happened in the palace, she just knew that she could stay in the palace! Even if it's a day, an hour is good. At this moment, she is graceful, humming a small tune, and she is as comfortable as a bird.

"Aunt Ning, is she boiling rice wine?" Outside the imperial dining room, a small head poked out. Wan Ning turned her head to look, but it was Chu Yunhong. But seeing him wearing moon-white clothes, he looked salivating. In the past, at dusk, when he went to the study, he would let Chu Yunhong practice calligraphy.

Why didn't you practice calligraphy today, but ran out? Thinking about Chu Yunhong as a child in the end, the heart of playfulness is indispensable. Wan Ning stood at the door and deliberately asked, "I heard that His Royal Highness has been practicing calligraphy with his master recently, can you take it out for my aunt to see?" ”

About Chu Yunhong understood what Wanning meant, and lowered his head embarrassedly. After a pause, he raised his head again and leaned straight behind Wan Ning: "The master has something to leave a note for me to write...... But the rice wine boiled by my aunt was really fragrant, and Hong'er was attracted to it......"

is really a well-behaved child, Wanning listened to this reason, and laughed unconsciously: "Your Highness's reason, aunt, this is the first time I have heard of it." But my aunt is happy today! But it will take another half an hour for the taste to come out. ”

So Wan Ning moved away and asked Chu Yunhong to look at the small fire under the pot. Tell him to wait until the water is boiling before putting a handful of red dates. If it's winter, you should put some goji berries to warm your stomach. Cover the pot and bring to a boil over low heat. An hour later will be fine.

Listening to Wanning talk about the key to boiling rice wine, Chu Yunhong couldn't help but admire it very much: "I often hear my father say that the rice wine boiled by my aunt is the sweetest. Hong'er has always wanted to taste it, and now it can be regarded as a blessing! But he looked impatient around the stove.

Wan Ning on the side saw it, and the bad impression of him at first disappeared. Back then, when Chu Junhao suddenly mentioned that there was another prince, Wanning was extremely angry and angry. She hated Chu Junhao, why did she hide it from her for so long, it was obviously because she was worried about herself.

However, with the arrival of Chu Yunhong, he looked at Chu Yunhong's innocent appearance. Wan Ning really couldn't hate it, especially in the face of Jiang Lingyan's conspiracy, Chu Yunhong was conclusive. Moreover, during Jun Hao's serious illness, he was represented by Chu Yunhong.

There is also Xiao Qingluan in the Zhengyang Pavilion, whose relationship with Chu Yunhong is extraordinary. Everything left a deep impression on Wanning. Now that she is dealing with Chu Yunhong again, Wan Ning likes him more and more. No wonder He Jing has always hinted that he wants to get closer to Chu Yunhong.

In fact, no matter what, Chu Yunhong will definitely be a Ming Jun in the future, and he can be regarded as his backer at that time. With him, Jiang Lingyan will not be arrogant. Chu Yunhong is not as hesitant as his father, saying that one is one, saying that two is two, and that is Chu Yunhong's personality.

In a few moments, the pot on the stove was almost boiling. The strong aroma of wine floated in the air, Chu Yunhong took advantage of Wanning's inattention, and hurriedly lifted the lid of the pot with his hand, but who knew that he was scalded. In pain, he kept sticking out his tongue.

Wan Ning on the side saw it and hurriedly took his little hand. saw that his fingers were burned red. Fortunately, there was no frothing, and Wan Ning took out a bottle of ointment. He put it on his finger for Chu Yunhong, and reproached with a smile: "Your Highness is worthy of being a monkey, and the monkey is anxious!" ”

"Hong'er just thought, hurry up and eat rice wine," Yun Hong didn't care about the pain in his fingers, but took a small bowl from the cupboard and wanted Wanning to serve it to him. Wanning smiled as she padbed the edge of the pot with a towel and placed the small pot on the table.

A small fan fanned the aroma of the rice wine. "When the rice wine is just boiled, you have to fan it lightly with a fan," Wan Ning explained while demonstrating, "otherwise the surface of the rice wine will condense a layer of wine tank, which will be a little bitter......

Listening to Wan Ning's explanation, Chu Yunhong suddenly realized. It turns out that when I ask the palace people to boil rice wine, I always taste bitter, and it turns out that this is the reason. Yun Hong can be regarded as having gained a lot of knowledge, and he asked greedily, "Is it okay now?" ”

But seeing Wanning pick up a spoon and slowly stir it in the pot, so that the flavors of rice wine and red dates can slowly blend. It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that Wan Ning gave Yun Hongsheng a small bowl. The anxious Yun Hong hurriedly came up and drank with a snort.

"Slow down," Wan Ning was afraid of burning Yun Hong, this ten-year-old child was really cute. For a moment, Wanning suddenly seemed to have such a child. Is it that the older you get, the more lonely you feel, and there is always less fun around you?

Soon, Chu Yunhong had already drunk three bowls full of rice wine. I only felt that there was still the sweetness of rice wine in my throat. The stomach is swollen, but he still has to shout for another bowl. Wan Ning took the spoon, and turned to a straight face: "Your Highness has no matter what, just answer my aunt's question." ”

It just so happened that Wan Ning wanted to ask about Liang Yuzhen. Although He Jing had already said what had happened, Wan Ning would not believe that Chen Xueying would frame Liang Yuzhen. Therefore, Wanning still needs the testimony of one more person to get more clues.

Zhong Cui Palace couldn't count on it, and I heard that Liang Yuzhen was handed over to Jiang Lingyan. Then this matter must be related to Jiang Lingyan. Chu Yunhong came just in time, he had never been afraid of Jiang Lingyan. If this time, it would be most appropriate for Chu Yunhong to ask Zhong Cui Palace. After all, it was also his adoptive mother.

I saw Chu Yunhong put down the bowl and smashed his mouth: "What my aunt said is not bad, I knew it earlier." It was Aunt Lian who told me that Zhaoyi wanted to be the queen. I'm going to suppress the concubine first, and then deal with the queen......"

The little child saw Jiang Lingyan's mind so thoroughly. People who want to come to the palace should also know it. It's just that because of Jiang Lingyan's identity, she didn't dare to speak. Even Chu Junhao was also sick for three or five days, and he had no time to ask about the government.

This "Aunt Lian" should be Qingluan's maid, Yang Lianyi. These days, because she is taking care of Qingluan, she is rarely seen. The news that Chu Yunhong said was heard from Lianyi. Is this Yang Lianyi also selfish.

Yes, Lianyi is from Xijon. Probably she is also for herself, and she wants to win over Chu Yunhong. It's okay to be in this way, and when you are in the palace, you can be regarded as having an extra pair of eyes. "If Hong'er listens to her aunt, her aunt will make rice wine for Hong'er to drink every day, okay?" Wan Ning smiled.

The wind blew and stirred the pond in the palace garden. Ripples rippled in the pool, as if counting memories of the past. In the southwest corner of the palace is the terrifying torture room. It is said to be "terrible", but it is actually aimed at those palace maids and concubines who have made mistakes.

In Liang Yuzhen's memory, it was the first time she walked into this place. Dark, damp. Although it was also in the palace, it was when Chen Guo. Liang Yuzhen has never been in, and she has heard the princess mention it a few times. I haven't been there before.

When she was brought here, her first impression was of fear. On the tall plaque, three big characters are splashed with ink: "Division Torture Room". Although it is also a glazed brick and tile, a high-walled compound. But somehow, for Liang Yuzhen, she was really worried.

In the palace at this time, the aunt in charge of the prison was called Cheng Chunlin. used to work in the Huanyi Bureau in the palace, but after returning to China, he was transferred to the punishment room. Looking at Cheng Chunlin in front of him, Sheng's face was cold, as if there was no trace of a smile.

Liang Yuzhen stood in place, not knowing what to do next. heard Cheng Chunlin's cold words: "When I get to the execution room, there is no difference between master and servant!" Her words seemed to remind Liang Yuzhen that she should forget her identity here.

The rules in the torture room, if it is a concubine who has made a mistake. It is up to the aunt in charge to investigate the truth herself, and then let the concubines who make mistakes either punish them for copying scriptures or for washing clothes. If it is a palace maid who has made a mistake, she will be punished with a cane, which was the case with Wan Ning at the beginning.

However, Chunlin still clearly understood that the gorgeously dressed woman in front of her. It is the princess sent by Chen Guo to kiss her, and now Liang Guifei. If the punishment is heavier, I am afraid that there will be no way to explain to Chen Guo. If the punishment is lighter, it will be difficult for Jiang Lingyan to deal with it.

When thinking about it, Cheng Chunlin followed the usual practice. Slowly sat down, drank tea, and asked, "As a harem concubine, you should set an example in the harem." But to harm the queen, what does it mean? You'd better recruit from the truth, otherwise don't blame the slave for doing it! ”

What she said was not serious, but it sent chills down Liang Yuzhen's spine. Why did he never have such a ruthless aunt in charge when he was in Chen Guo? Or I am lonely and unheard, and I have never heard of it. However, Liang Yuzhen did not harm the queen, so naturally she refused to admit it.

"Dare to ask my aunt if there is any evidence? If you wronged the palace, let alone the emperor, even our Chen Guo will not follow! Liang Yuzhen always believes that she is a master. It will not be easily defeated by such a small palace maid.

But soon, Liang Yuzhen thought wrong. This is Donglu, and she is just a little concubine in Donglu. No matter how she defended, she couldn't erase the fact that she was already married. She should remember what Cheng Chunlin said to her: "There is no master and servant here." ”

Outside the window, there was the sound of thunder and lightning, roaring in mid-air. Soon the hot breath was disturbed to the clouds. Liang Yuzhen saw the candle flame on the table, swaying back and forth. Her eyes widened and she saw Cheng Chunlin pick up a candle and drip the candle tears on the ground one by one.

Immediately afterwards, Cheng Chunlin picked up a broom again and said to Liang Yuzhen: "Since you attempted to kill the queen, you should be punished...... Tonight, sweep the floor clean of the wax and oil! Otherwise, you are not allowed to sleep! Do you understand? ”

Just as Liang Yuzhen was about to say something, she saw Cheng Chunlin throw all the candles on the ground. Many shaking wax and candle tears burned on the ground. "It's going to catch fire!" Liang Yuzhen shouted while jumping out.

Who knew that Cheng Chunlin grabbed her and said sharply: "In the torture room, everything is up to the slave maid!" If you don't want a fire here, hurry up! Her voice was so sharp that Liang Yuzhen was very uncomfortable to listen to in her ears.

This Cheng Chunlin probably had too ulterior motives, she splashed the wax oil on the ground. If you can't clean it up, if the death penalty room catches fire, it's your responsibility. I don't know if this move is vicious, the beating flames are full of ridicule in Liang Yuzhen's eyes.

A lot of wind and rain, a lot of sorrow. On such a stormy night, if it was before. Liang Yuzhen has long rested, but now she is enduring grievances and pain, and here she uses buckets and brooms to clean up the wax and oil one by one. Looking at the faint candlelight, Liang Yuzhen cried.

Although she used to be a palace maid, she served by the princess's side. She had never been wronged in this way, so she kicked the bucket to the ground and ran to the door. found that she had already been locked by Cheng Chunlin, she shook the door desperately, just thinking about getting out quickly.

Suddenly, she smelled a strong smell of dry firewood. When she turned around, she found that the faint candle flame had already lit a corner of the table. She was so anxious that she accidentally kicked the last bucket of water to the ground.

It's a pity that so much water was wasted in vain, and she watched the flames continue to devour this pear blossom table. But there was nothing to be done, and at this time Liang Yuzhen understood. Cheng Chunlin's meaning is actually to die here, and the torture room has no responsibility at all.

When the time comes, it is only said that the weather is dry, and the water here in the torture room is gone. Who would doubt it, and Chu Junhao was also sick in bed, and no one paid attention to him. At that moment, Liang Yuzhen's heart was in chaos. She lifted the sheets and kept flapping the flames.

It's a pity that it's too late, and those flames have already gone high. even lit the curtains, and Liang Yuzhen was choked and coughed constantly. She touched the window with one hand, but it hurt from the flames. At that moment, she clearly heard Jiang Lingyan's laughter.

"Concubine Niangniang, how does it taste inside?" Jiang Lingyan's pride sounded terrible to Liang Yuzhen. I heard before that Jiang Lingyan is a vicious person. She would never have imagined that Jiang Lingyan would treat herself like this.

Naturally, how could Jiang Lingyan allow Liang Yuzhen to live. The murder of Princess Chen Guo and the incident of Qiyaoxiang. It's all related to Jiang Lingyan, Liang Yuzhen also knows the truth of the matter, Jiang Lingyan naturally wants to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. So Liang Yuzhen can't stay, and she is not a real princess, even if Jiang Lingyan kills her, I believe that Chen Guo will not say anything, she can be regarded as doing a "good thing".

It turned out that this was Jiang Lingyan's purpose! At this time, Liang Yuzhen understood what Wanning said. It's a pity that it's a little late now, she has only been in the palace for less than half a month, and she was held in the palm of Jiang Lingyan's hand. No, she can't die.

Even if it's for herself, and for the queen who is kept in the dark. Liang Yuzhen must survive! She tore off a corner of the curtain and soaked the last bit of water from her teacup. Covering his nose and mouth, ready to jump out of another window.

Worst! All the windows are locked! No matter how hard Liang Yuzhen tries, the windows are locked. Suddenly, Liang Yuzhen was a little desperate. She looked at the thick fire, shuttling through the air, and suddenly felt that she was not far from death.

At this time, Liang Yuzhen thought about how good it would be if she could meet the princess. Or, how nice it would be to see her big brother Xiao. It's just that it's too late, maybe she should have listened to Xiao Yihan's words. came to Donglu to marry on his behalf, but after all, he still suffered.

Gradually, her consciousness began to blur. The Ganges River of Chen Guo seemed to appear in front of him, sparkling and rippling. In the haze, it seemed to hear Brother Xiao's voice. He was still as handsome as he was, standing by the river and smiling at himself.
