What Yuan Ying said to Yu'er, neither of them would say.

But on this day, I was uneasy, and I always felt like something was going to happen. Yuan Ying is not in the palace, and Yu'er is not there, I don't know what is going on outside, so it is inconvenient to show up and cause unnecessary trouble.

I just heard that there seemed to be a faint movement coming from the ground in the palace.

I remembered that there seemed to be a dungeon in the palace, where Yuan Qi had been imprisoned.

With the direction in my memory, it was not difficult to find the entrance to the dungeon, I first put my ear to the entrance and listened carefully, and I could faintly hear the constant sound coming from the dungeon, as if someone was crying something, kept reading, kept sobbing, but I couldn't hear it clearly.

Who will it be.

Yuan Ying is in the dungeon of the palace, who is he locked up.

After hesitating a few times, he finally decided to go and see for himself, made up his mind, and reached out to push open the door of the secret passage.

"Auntie." Fu Ning didn't know when she stood behind me, and with a clear voice, she broke the original plan, and I turned around to see her, she stood there still, as if she hadn't seen anything. "Auntie."

"How did you come?" I said casually, and I thought that it was probably ordered by Yuan Ying or Yu'er. "What's the matter?"

"Auntie." Fu Ning smiled, stepped forward to help me, and led me to the inner hall, wearing a green shirt like a green willow spring, full of vitality. "Auntie, listening to my uncle talking to Brother Ali, Ah Ning knew that my aunt had left the palace now and sneaked in."

I laughed at her childishness. "You call me my aunt, why do you call Gong Li my brother."

Fu Ning didn't understand the relationship, but he just looked at it stupidly, smiling like a flower.

But after thinking about it, I realized something, "You say, Yuan Ying and Gong Li are together?" ”

"Hmm." Fu Ning nodded in response, "It seems that something happened in the Shao Palace, Brother Ali was invited into the palace in the middle of the night, and Ah Ning came in with him, but they didn't allow me to follow at all, I happened to hear my uncle and Brother Li talking, and I knew that my aunt came to find my aunt when she left the palace." ”

"Something happened to Shaogong?" No wonder I didn't see Yuan Ying and Yu'er when I started early in the morning.

"It shouldn't be a big deal." Fu Ning immediately comforted me and explained, "If something big happens, the inside and outside must have fallen out now, but now it is calm and peaceful, and no one knows what it looks like." ”

That's the case, but if you alarm Yuan Ying, even if you are suppressed, it may not be a trivial matter.

"Auntie." Fu Ning called me, but he didn't know whether to say it or not, and he made a mistake.

"What's wrong with you?" She made me a little worried, and today I always felt as if something was going to happen, as if I had become a frightened bird.

"Auntie, Brother Ali received the news of Luoxiangshan last night." Fu Ning looked embarrassed, and said slowly, "There is news from the village, saying that someone from the Nancheng Palace has sent a letter and handed it to Master Qingyan, asking us to pick it up in person. ”

Nancheng Palace? I thought about it for a moment. "Who sent it?"

Fu Ning shook his head. "It was only said that it was sent by a concubine in the palace of Nancheng Wang. Brother Ali just asked my uncle if he wanted to sue you, but my uncle told Brother Li that he should not say anything yet. But Ah Ning thought, maybe it was her aunt who was waiting for some news. ”

"A concubine?" I suddenly figured it out, "It's Bai Fei." You're right, before leaving Nancheng, I asked Concubine Bai to pay attention to the movements in the palace, and asked her to help me check some things, maybe there is a result. ”

"Is that aunt going back to Xiangshan?" Fu Ning couldn't help but worry.

"I ......"

"Where are you going again?!" Yu'er suddenly appeared outside the door, I don't know from which sentence he sounded. Seeing that we didn't speak, Yu'er walked in and grabbed my sleeve head-on, "Where are you going?" ”

"It's fine." I saw that Fu Ning was about to explain, so she said first, diverting the topic, "Where did Yu'er go?" I didn't see you when I woke up. ”

Yu'er's anger just now suddenly vanished, and a dignified sense of loss lingered.

"Chengyu, what's wrong." Fu Ning also saw the abnormality, and took two steps forward and squatted beside Yu'er.

Yu'er suddenly cried, her eyes were red, tears fell, and she reached out to wipe them away, so stubborn that she couldn't do it. "The old lady in the Shao Palace is gone."

Fu Ning let go of her hand, and she also looked a little gloomy.

The old queen mother in the Shao Palace. Yes, is she? When Yuan Ying was still Prince Yuwen, the queen mother who had protected us, the past events of nine years ago passed by one by one, thinking that it was the current queen mother who supported Yu'er to ascend the throne, and then abolished the old queen mother who was under house arrest in the cold palace, I can't tell how it felt, but I had unintentionally participated in two very important palace changes in her life, and I felt regretful.

I still remember that at that time, she had a good relationship with Yuan Ying, no wonder, Yuan Ying couldn't see anyone early in the morning.

"Yu'er is very sad," I had to comfort him personally when I realized that Fu Ning had also lost his mind, "However, this is the case in the court, human life is already limited, and fortune and misfortune change overnight, remember those who are happy, don't care too much about losing." ”

Yu'er nodded as if she understood. While responding, he raised his right hand and spread it in front of me, "Before the old queen mother died, give this to Yu'er, and ask Yu'er to hand it over to Niangniang." ”

I looked down and saw that Yu'er was holding a crumpled ball of paper in his hand.

I reached out and took it, and spread it out finely.

"The eldest princess is seriously ill, and when Wang Fuyin saw this letter, she remembered her past fate and became Hui'er."

"How did the old lady tell you when she handed this over to you?" My heart is in turmoil.

Yu'er shook her head.

Xu is old queen mother has nothing else to say, and when she is in danger, she stuffed the note into Yu'er's hand, which should have been hidden from Yuan Ying. Yu'er just held the note in the palm of her hand, pinched it all the way back to the palace, and the note would be wrinkled like this.

"How is the eldest princess doing now?" I had to ask Xiang Fu Ning.

Fu Ning looked dazed. "I just heard Brother Ali talk about it, he fell asleep all day long, and he was sick. The imperial doctor has long lost hope, it is nothing more than his uncle who is in charge, so that the imperial doctors keep using medicine to continue the life of the eldest princess, but recently, they have not heard any news. ”

That's right, it's just, "What to do." ”

"Auntie, what do you think?" Fu Ning made up her mind to help me.

"I want to get the letter, and I really can't let go of the eldest princess, I still owe someone an agreement to let him be with the eldest princess." But now, the old queen mother is gone, and how long the eldest princess can survive is a mystery, and I am afraid that she will miss the last chance to be with Master Qingyan.

Fu Yin pondered for a while and said, "Then Ah Ning went to help her aunt get the letter, and my aunt went to visit the eldest princess, okay?" ”

I looked up, and for a moment I didn't know what to do.

"Auntie, don't worry, Ah Ning will definitely bring back the news that my aunt needs." Fu Ning is full of confidence, or maybe it is to give me peace of mind.

"Then you pay more attention to safety." If it weren't for the lack of strength right now, there was no other way, I'm afraid I wouldn't let her run this trip alone. It's just that I turned around and explained to Yu'er again, "Wait for the mother to go out of the palace with Sister A Ning, and the regent will come back, you have to help me drag him down first." If I don't come back before the sun goes down, you tell him, and I'll go to the eldest princess. ”

Yu'er hesitated for a moment, but nodded.

Under Yu'er's gaze, I hid in the carriage that Fu Ning Gong Li rode in when he entered the palace. repeatedly told Yu'er to deal with Yuan Ying carefully, and never let him notice anything too soon.

The man guarding the gate of the palace stopped the carriage.

"Who is in the car, according to the instructions of the Empress Dowager, I also asked the people in the car to get out of the car and be inspected." This voice turned out to be Takasaki.

Fu Ning motioned for me to duck back, and she lifted the curtain and leaned out. "Tall, it's me. Brother Ali is still talking to his uncle, I think I'm really bored and want to go back first, please let Master Gao get out of the way. ”

Takasaki didn't respond directly, but instead paused for a moment, no more, no less.

Fu Ning was very generous, he really didn't leave him any handle, and the guards were not easy to search for Fu Ning's car, Takasaki silently let him go, and the carriage began to staggered again.

"It's been getting late lately, so if you want to come back, it's better to come back early." Takasaki said only after the carriage began to move.

I was stunned for a moment, and Fu Ning replied through the curtain, "Thank you, Lord Gao, for your advice." ”

Did Takasaki notice it?

"Auntie." Fu Ning probably called me because she saw that my face was wrong.

"In the future, you should be careful of this person, the people of the Gao family, all the cities are very deep, don't leave any handles." I say.

Fu Ning smiled, "Takasaki Tall often accompanies Chengyu to protect Chengyu, except that he doesn't talk much or laugh much, in fact, he is fine, I heard that he used to be a figure who galloped on horseback, but somehow he was seriously injured, so he couldn't sit in the army." The Empress Dowager instructed him to take care of Chengyu. ”

"Iniquity. Have you not heard that I was the one who seriously injured him nine years ago? "That's why I'm not worried about Takasaki.

Fu Ning couldn't help but smile.

I asked her, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Fu Ning shook her head and replied, "Auntie, are all your closest relatives like this, no matter how long they are separated, they will not feel that there is a gap, they will not feel embarrassed, and they can always find a familiar look in every bit of it." ”

I was stunned for a moment, but I also thought she had a point. "I guess so. At least when I see you now, I still think of the little girl who blocked the road and sold me flowers. ”

"Childe, buy a flower for your sweetheart." Fu Ning smiled in a childish tone.

That's right, that's what it was like back then. I couldn't help but laugh with her.

The carriage drove to the back door of the eldest princess's mansion, looked at it for a while, and let me get out of the car.

"Go early and come back early, be sure to pay attention to safety." I couldn't help but tell you again.

"Auntie, don't worry." Fu Ning responded, and the carriage staggered away from sight with Fu Ning, and we came back to our senses and knocked on the door.

"Who?" The little servant answered and opened the door, "Who are you?" ”

I can't help but sigh at the terrible time, what kind of scenery used to be in the mansion of the eldest princess, and now it is actually down to such a point, the paint on the door is peeling, the door is locked in broad daylight, and you can see the slightly messy appearance inside through the afterglow of the little girl. "Please report, Ye Jiu begged to see the eldest princess."

In a short time, the little maid had already returned and opened the door for me to enter. Lead me to the eldest princess's room.

I just looked outside the door and thought it was okay, but when I walked into the eldest princess's mansion, I really felt cold.

When I first met nine years ago, even if there were bad people trying to harm her, what kind of scenery was she. Even if the horse Zhao Yu is not good, she has also raised her eyebrows with her to envy everyone, she was so powerful at that time that even the imperial concubine was afraid to get rid of the queen quickly, but today, it is really a person who walks away from tea.

I still remember that when Gong Li and I mixed into Beishao, time passed, and nine years passed in a hurry.

As the servant walked into the back compartment, the servant stopped in front of the room and leaned over to signal me to go in alone.

Pushing open the door, it was inexplicably stained with dust.

She leaned against the edge of the bed, half-dead. Hearing the movement, he slowly turned his head sideways.

I was really stunned by what I saw.

It's only been nine years, but it's only nine years.

Her hair was so white that her eyes were hollow and her skin was gray, and there were strange traces one by one, as if she had been in this damp and dark room for too long, and she had not seen the sun all day long, turning a graceful and elegant beauty into the appearance of a witch today.

"You're here." She listened with her ears sideways, her voice hoarse, her thin lips chapped.
