Xue Zhao opened the door and saw that it was the petite maid standing in the doorway, holding a wooden box in her hand. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

She smiled at Xue Zhao, then looked at Yun Yi inside and said, "Your Highness, the slave maid will bring you some ointment to invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, otherwise it will be swollen." ā€

Hearing this, Xue Zhao immediately flashed sideways to the side, waiting for Yun Yi to let her in.

"Leave it to the musician." Yun Yi's voice was smiling, and his eyes seemed to be on his face, but Xue Zhao didn't dare to look up at him.

"This ......" The little maid looked at Xue Zhao, and had to hand over the wooden box to her, her face a little gloomy.

"The slave and maid withdrew." The little maid withdrew gently, and Xue Zhao felt the hostility of Sen Sen, whose eyes swept towards her, the moment she turned around.

Xue Zhao held the wooden box in his hand, a little at a loss.

"I've been punished for you, so it's not too much for you to help me get some medicine." Yun Yi looked at her and said.

Just said that she was punished not because of her, Xue Zhao thought to herself, but he tried so hard to help her, she really should do something for him.

Thinking of this, she walked up to Yun Yi, leaned down and lifted his leg up on the chair next to him, and pushed one of his trousers up to his knee, and sure enough, she saw a large bruise, mixed with a trace of bruising, which was shocking.

Xue Zhao's heart couldn't help but shrink, she immediately turned around and opened the wooden box, took out the ointment inside, and gently wiped the wound for him.

"Is this the first time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been punished?" Xue Zhao asked as she applied the ointment.

"No," he didn't look at the injury, only stared at her face, "This is the second time, when I was a child, I disobeyed my father's order and ran out of the palace, it was the first time." ā€

Xue Zhao apologized in her heart and said, "This time it's just for a little musician, Your Highness is not worth it." ā€

"Who's to say it's not worth it? Hongu thinks it's worth it to do anything for you. Yun Yi's voice was calm and gentle, but it scared Xue Zhao to the core.

"Ahh Yun Yi's knees hurt from her trembling.

Xue Zhao immediately stood up and took a step back, bowed down and said, "I'm sorry Your Highness, Xue Zhao didn't mean it!" ā€

Yun Yi smiled and his eyebrows crooked, he stood up and helped her up, and said, "Why are you so afraid of me, I won't eat you!" ā€

He sat back in his chair and waited for Xue Zhao to continue to give him medicine, and said, "Although I have been punished by the queen mother, I have won you a good opportunity." ā€

Xue Zhao looked up at him and asked, "What chance?" ā€

Yun Yi leaned over and said with a smile, "There will be an important sacrifice in ten days, and I recommended you to my father here in the Inner Teaching Workshop, and my father also listened to you play last time, and I feel very satisfied, so you should prepare well in the next few days." ā€

Xue Zhao jumped up in his heart, and it was a great honor for a pianist to be able to play together with the Inner Sect and Taichang Temple during the festival.

"What? Are you unhappy? Yun Yi asked, looking at her expression.

"No, Xue Zhao feels flattered, and he must prepare well in the next few days." Xue Zhao's face turned a little red from excitement.

Yun Yi's heart was about to melt when he saw it, he stabilized his mind and said in a commanding tone, "I have already brought your piano here, and from today onwards, you will live in the Tai Palace, practice quickly, and you will not leave until the sacrifice is over." ā€

Xue Zhao bowed and saluted, and said, "Xue Zhao stays any longer, I'm afraid it will cause more criticism to the crown prince, so I implore His Highness to allow Xue Zhao to return to Baifeng Garden!" ā€

Yun Yi didn't answer, his eyes were fixed on Xue Zhao, trying to see her expression clearly, and only after a while did he say, "Don't go back to Baifeng Yuan, if you don't want to live here, go to Wanyan to live, so that it will be convenient for me to see you." ā€

Xue Zhao felt that it would be too hypocritical to excuse herself, so she agreed after thinking about it.

Yun Yi showed a happy look on his face, he pulled his leg back, his tone was full of excitement, and said, "No need to take medicine, I'll be fine in a few days, how can I be so squeamish." ā€

Saying that, he stood up and commanded several little eunuchs to send Xue Zhao to Wanyan's residence.

With the prince's special care, Xue Zhao and Wanyan lived together, and it did not cause too many people to criticize.

Xue Zhao carefully prepares for the upcoming sacrificial music every day, and Yun Yi comes to Wan Yan's residence whenever he is free, and watches Xue Zhao play the piano with Wan Yan.

In a blink of an eye, it came to the day of the sacrifice ceremony, Xue Zhao put on the special musician costume for the sacrifice early, and came to the Taimiao with the music and dance team.

It was the first time she participated in such a grand sacrificial ceremony, because the royal requirements for the sacrificial scene were extremely strict, and the entire Taimiao was in a pious and pious atmosphere, and Xue Zhao was even more cautious, for fear of making a little mistake.

The process of the sacrifice is very delicate and complex, divided into nine rituals, each ritual has to play different movements, dance different dances, each ritual The emperor has to lead the ministers to perform the ritual of kneeling and bowing three times, and it has been nearly two hours before the main sacrificial process is over.

After a whole day of hard work, the sacrifice was finally over, and when Xue Zhao dragged her tired body back to Wanyan's residence, it was already evening.

As soon as Wan Yan saw her, she asked anxiously, "Xuezhao, how is it?" You and Huo Qing didn't make any mistakes, right? ā€

Xue Zhao's face was a little pale from exhaustion, and he reluctantly smiled and said, "It's okay, Huo Qing is the most outstanding among all musicians, the emperor is very satisfied, wait for the emperor to reward him tomorrow." ā€

Wan Yan's face turned a little red with excitement when she heard this, and a shy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Xue looked at her and asked with some concern, "Lord Wanyan, has there been any recent movement on the queen's side?" ā€

Wan Yan's face showed a sad look when she heard this, and said, "Recently, the queen mother is looking for a suitable family for me to marry, and I am terrified when I hear it, but I don't know how to refuse." ā€

Xue Zhao sighed, because the prince took special care of her, and the queen mother also had some resentment towards her, and her current status was too low, and if she wanted to help Wan Yan, she would need to wait for some time.

While the two were talking, they suddenly heard a little eunuch report, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" ā€

Xue Zhao was shocked again when she heard this, it was already evening, and she didn't know what Yunyi was doing here again.

Wan Yan lowered her head and pursed her lips and snickered, since Xue Zhao lived here, there was no day that her prince's brother would not come.

Xue Zhao had already gotten up to greet the door, and when she saw Yun Yi, she bowed down and wanted to salute, but Yun Yi stepped forward and grabbed her arm, Yun Yi said softly, "Don't worship me in the future." ā€

"You're tired today, aren't you?" Yun Yi looked down at Xue Zhao's pale face again, and his concern was overflowing.
