Chapter Twenty-Four: The Feeling of a Heartbeat

The queen's hand hesitated when she opened it halfway, and the face of the eldest princess in the opposite step was faintly visible, and that kind of look made her hand stop suddenly, as if she had never seen her have such a look since the first day she married the Son of Heaven and had contact with Wei Yang......

It's so, it's scary.

The two looked at each other, and for a moment they were speechless.

The queen's gaze inadvertently swept over the corner of Buyu, and then she looked at it a few more times, and then slowly lowered her hand, and the heavy bead curtain covered the woman's face again, but no one knew that the corners of her lips were intentionally or unintentionally hooked up with a sneer.

"Go back," the queen said, looking at the avenue ahead, "the palace will not delay the eldest princess from discussing important matters with the emperor." ”

The eunuch sitting in front of the carriage raised the horse rope, and the palace maids and horses on both sides began to walk forward again.

Hearing the voice gradually fade away, Shen Shuzhao finally breathed a sigh of relief, her body slowly left Wei Yang's back, and when she raised her head, Wei Yang was watching her.

The roots of her ears became redder and redder, and she whispered, "Just now...... Thank you, Your Highness. ”

Wei Yang looked at her and smiled: "No, it just seems that the direction you are going to be the same as the queen." ”

Thinking about the direction in which the car made a noise and left, Shen Shuzhao said helplessly: "Maybe......"

However, Wei Yang was not as depressed as she was, she said, "Where are you going? ”

"Go to Jianyang Palace." Shen Shuzhao blurted out, she thought that after she said it, Wei Yang would ask her suspiciously why she didn't go back to Changle Palace, but Wei Yang just kept looking at her eyes and didn't say anything, as if she knew what she was going to do since she came out of Gu Meiren.

"Jianyang Palace is very far away, it's too dangerous for you to go alone."

Wei Yang frowned and said calmly.

Shen Shuzhao in front of him smiled, people are not as good as heaven, who knew that she would meet the queen who came out of the Long Live Palace here, if it wasn't for the eldest princess by chance, it would inevitably have some trouble here.

However, who called this the palace of Concubine Gu, who was closest to the emperor?

Despite this, she felt that with the memory of her previous life, she could still avoid the queen's route as much as possible, so she replied: "The maiden will go around with the palace people, the eldest princess doesn't have to worry, Shuzhao hereby thanked His Royal Highness for his kindness every time he lifted the siege." ”

After speaking, she sat up slightly straight, and bowed her head to Wei Yang in front of her, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had cloudy temples, Wei Yang looked at her so upright, and couldn't help but smile lightly and said: "Why do you need to be so polite, you are a lonely cousin, this is what you should do." Jianyang Palace is far away from here, and the main hall will send you there. ”

Shen Shuzhao was stunned for a moment, she somehow always lost her mind in front of this eldest princess, maybe she was probably not used to being too close to a woman.

She lowered her head and gently pulled her cuffs, and said solemnly in a low voice: "The folk girl should not sit on the eldest princess's step, this ...... It's overstepping, Your Highness. ”

Wei Yang tilted his head and replied calmly: "As long as you don't say it, no one will know about Yue Qi." ”

When Shen Shuzhao heard her say this, she suddenly remembered that on the day of the eldest princess's marriage in her previous life, the only time she and her looked at each other, wasn't she also overstepping? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little funny, she was originally a person who lived in the palace and many imperial rules, how could she do things that were out of order three times and twice when she met this princess.

She had no choice but to thank sincerely: "The folk girl has to thank Your Highness." ”

When he took the initiative to raise his eyes, he found that Wei Yang had already looked sideways at her earlier. After hearing Shen Shuzhao say this, Wei Yang smiled at her, who was still a little shy in front of her, and said to the people outside the step: "Start and go to Jianyang Palace, and choose another way around the corner." ”

Several of the eunuchs carried their steps higher on their shoulders again, turned a corner, and walked in the direction of the same fork where the queen had left.

In one step, there was just enough room for two women to sit side by side, Shen Shuzhao was close to Wei Yang's side, not knowing what to say, she was just silent.

How long has it been since I've been so close to a woman?

In her previous life, even she and Concubine Mei were not so close. Every time she admires the flowers during the winter solstice, she always holds an umbrella when it snows heavily, and walks slowly behind that person, always keeping a distance not far away, holding a stove in her hand, watching the woman in a red brocade cloak in front of her walk slowly between the snow.

And the woman who was always sentimental and steady, betrayed her in the end with the Queen Mother, gave her poisonous wine and entered the Yellow Spring forever.

From that moment on, she felt that all her emotions had been annihilated, before she drank the cup of poisonous wine, and after she was reborn, she no longer had the obsession to ask for it.

But for her, who has always had an obsession in her previous life, is it worth it or not?

"What's wrong?"

Wei Yang's question, in a soft tone, made her turn back.

Shen Shuzhao caught a glimpse of Wei Yang's slightly worried face, and Wei Yang then asked, "You seem to be a little uncomfortable?" ”

Shen Shuzhao didn't know what kind of sadness her expression was just now, she was embarrassed for a moment before she replied: "The people's girl has been feeling a little unwell recently, but it is really okay, thanks to His Highness's concern." ”

The person on the other side looked at her silently, and then Wei Yang gently turned his head away and said, "Well, you cherish your body." ”

Buyu walked in the direction of Jianyang Palace step by step, the two of them have not said anything since that last sentence, the reassuring cold fragrance has been lingering around Shen Shuzhao, so that she gradually calmed down, I don't know why every time she stays by the side of the eldest princess, she feels that she can settle down.

Such a noble background of the eldest daughter of the Son of Heaven and the Empress Dowager is something that Shen Shuzhao can't hope for in his life, which means that he doesn't have to think about calculations, he doesn't need to fight with anyone, as long as he chooses an equally noble good husband to marry when he becomes an adult, and then he will live a white life.

Thinking of this for a while, she looked at Wei Yang with a cold face, there are people in the world who are as outstanding and tall as Shen Zhuangzhao, why did they marry so well in their previous life? Now that I think about that grand ceremony comparable to the canonization of the queen, it is more like a kind of compensation for her shame.

Such a thought flashed, and Shen Shuzhao's heart felt even more sympathetic.

Eldest princess, is it really in such a hurry to get married......

She suddenly felt that there was an indescribable feeling in her heart, was it that simple? Did you just leave?

She had to admit that the Queen Mother was really ruthless enough, and hastily let her eldest daughter be the object of marriage, so as to change the stability in the future, Shen Shuzhao shook her head in her heart, feeling very sorry for the beauty in front of her.

She looked at Wei Yang's side face for a long time, even if she knew her future fate, she didn't know what to say to the eldest princess, so she could only keep looking at her like this, as if she could make up for something.

Xu was aware of Shen Shuzhao's gaze, Wei Yang turned his head, his eyes were like a flat lake in a long smoke, falling on Shen Shuzhao's body, and looking at her, because of his height, Shen Shuzhao was looked at condescendingly by Wei Yang, and after a while, Shen Shuzhao felt weak and looked away.

But the person next to him spoke: "I don't know what the second miss is looking at?" ”

Shen Shuzhao was silent for a moment, and then said openly: "...... Your Highness, huh...... is really worthy of being the first beauty of the royal family, the folk girl has heard about it outside the palace as early as now, and now that she has seen it with her own eyes, she really feels that she is fortunate in three lives, so she will take a few more looks. ”

Wei Yang smiled faintly, gathered a green silk, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but he didn't speak, just looked quietly into the distance.

Shen Shuzhao looked at Wei Yang's raised lips and unconsciously behaved, she couldn't help but turn her head to the side where no one was, and smiled secretly, it turns out that the eldest princess is also shy? She had always thought that she was the kind of cold person before, but if she said it casually like this, would the eldest princess who had lived in the deep palace for a long time really feel shy? For a moment, she couldn't express some feelings in her heart.

"Second Miss," Wei Yang spoke for the first time no longer looking into Shen Shuzhao's eyes, "Lone didn't expect that you were also a person who could say some coaxing words, but if you refused to say it, Lone wouldn't force you." ”

That being said, the eldest princess's tone was distinctly mild. Hearing her say this, Shen Shuzhao replied with a smile: "The people's daughter is just telling the truth, His Highness is already so outstanding, can His Highness also blame Shuzhao in this way?" ”

Wei Yang turned sideways to meet Shen Shuzhao's eyes, and said: "If the second lady sees all the concubines at the Queen Mother's Qianqiu banquet in the future, she will know that there are many women with both appearance and talent in the harem, and there are many places where she is ashamed of herself. ”

Shen Shuzhao looked at the eldest princess's serious appearance, what did she mean?

Wei Yang paused, didn't say any more, in this quiet star, Shen Shuzhao suddenly realized that the distance between them was so close, as if he could touch his lips as soon as he lowered his head-no, wait a minute, why did you meet? How could she think about this between two women?

All of a sudden, her face burned like fire, and the flush that had faded before came up again, and at the same time, she was afraid that Wei Yang would look at her like this.

And Wei Yang beside him just straightened up, looked at the road ahead, and still said calmly: "Will the second miss still feel like this at that time?" ”

The last five words, scratched lightly in her heart, Shen Shuzhao looked at Wei Yang, but Wei Yang looked ahead, silent for a while, she thought about it seriously, in her previous life, she didn't know how many beautiful women from the north and south who were known as the smiling city entered the palace, but there was really no one who could compare to the eldest princess in front of her, so she still replied with some certainty: "No." ”

Wei Yang smiled with a vague smile after hearing this, Shen Shuzhao saw it in her eyes, and for some reason, she actually felt a little funny when she laughed.

What is this?

One is the most noble princess of the dynasty, and the other is the new strategist next to the queen mother, who actually said a lot of stupid things like a young child in this matter, she smiled and looked up at the long endless palace road in front of her, fortunately, only she and the eldest princess knew about this matter.

Buyu continued to move forward, the identical palace walls in front of her, the repetitive flat stone road, and the main entrance outside the palace that was familiar with the palace concubines passing by, this qiē was so strange to Shen Shuzhao, but for some reason, there was a hint of relief in her eyes that she had never felt before.

Wei Yang, who took her demeanor in his eyes, looked at the sad look that gradually disappeared from her face, and smiled with relief.

Buyu slowly got closer and closer to the farthest direction, along the way, with this royal nobleman's Buyu in front, the unknown concubines and palace people who met on the road just bowed their heads and retreated, and I don't know how long it took, from the Buyu came the sound of conversation that only two people could hear-

"Your Highness, the folk girl remembers that you seem to have something to see the emperor?"

No one answered for a moment.

"Don't care."

One person said.

"The emperor should be waiting for His Royal Highness......"

The voice said helplessly.

I don't know whose corner of his mouth lifted slightly, and said, "Let him wait." ”
