When he returned to the house, the bamboo basket was already out of shape, and he didn't dare to alarm Hua Shu, so he only forced himself to lie on the bed in the dark. As soon as he got to the bed and kicked his shoes, his brain was already drowsy, and although his mouth was dry, he had no strength to get up and pour water. Fortunately, tomorrow is not on duty, and the bamboo basket only has time to rise up this most important thought, and then he is relieved and sleeps.

When I woke up the next day, it was already dawn. While rubbing his stiff and aching head, Zhu Jian glanced to the other side of the room - sure enough, Aunt Hua Shu was no longer in the house. With a big breath, Zhu Zhen felt that his mouth was dry, his throat was tight, he lifted the quilt, and got up to find water to drink. The teapot on the table was filled with a pot of water, and it was still a little warm, and the bamboo basket drank most of the pot before stopping. Sitting back on the bed with his head down, touching the quilt, quilt?! Zhu Zhen was shocked to realize that when he got up, he actually covered the quilt, bowed his head and looked at himself, and the coat on his body had been faded at some point, thinking that it was Aunt Hua Shu, and the water on the table was also prepared by her, and a trace of gratitude swelled in Zhu Zong's heart.

Just thinking about it, the door was pushed open, Aunt Hua Shu came in with a food box, and saw Zhu Zhen sitting on the bed with a middle coat, before she got up, and said with a smile: "Get up?" Wash up and have a bowl of decanting soup. ”

Zhu Zhen got up as he said and responded gently, maybe after a while, there will be some interrogation.

After cleaning up, the bamboo basket sat at the table, and Hua Shu was scooping out a bowl of decanting soup, which was full of fragrance. Handing the bamboo basket, Hua Shu said softly: "Drink, it's just hot." ”

The bamboo basket took it, took the spoon and drank it silently, thinking to himself why didn't Hua Shu ask yet?

After Zhu Zhen drank all the bowl of decanting soup, Hua Shu still didn't say anything, only took the bowl in Zhu Zheng's hand and asked, "Do you want to drink some more?" ”

Zhu Zhen shook his head and said, "I'm almost awake." ”

"It's fine." Hua Shu said, put down the bowl, took out two plates of dim sum from the food box, and pushed them to the bamboo basket, "Eat a few dim sum pads, it will take a while for lunch." ”

"Hmm." Zhu Zhen picked a piece of chestnut cake and ate it in small bites, while Hua Shu still didn't speak on the side.

Zhu Zhen ate two pieces of snacks, took a handkerchief and cleaned his hands, and said to Hua Shu: "Thank you aunt for taking care of me, I ...... last night."

"Just be careful in the future." Without waiting for Zhu Zhen to say anything, Hua Shu interrupted her and said, "Serving people in the palace, when life is naturally unsatisfactory, it is good to think about it, but you can't be careless." ”

Zhu Zhen's heart was shocked, Aunt Hua Shu's words were only said about her own drinking? Or do you know what happened last night? Listening to her tone again, I felt that I was reminding myself, and even had a bit of a taste of care, and I couldn't help but be puzzled for a while, so I only lowered my head and responded: "Yes." ”

Aunt Hua Shu didn't say anything more, and went back to the concubine's house to be on duty.

Zhu Zheng sat quietly for a while, got up and went to get dressed and comb his hair. After cleaning up, I pushed the window of the table open, and a breath of fresh air rushed in, and it was already a little hot. Zhu Zhen turned around to fold the bed, and was slapping the quilt, when he suddenly heard a lazy laughing voice outside the house: "There is a palace maid who gets up so late, but she begs for a beating?" The voice sounded so clear.

The bamboo basket turned his head to look, but it was the person from last night, who was leaning against the window and smiling at the bamboo basket, and the moon-white shirt set off his different dust and fall. The bamboo basket walked up straight, pulled the feather duster, dusted the table, and said, "I shouldn't be on duty today, what do you have to get up later?" Which of the palace rules stipulates that palace maids must get up early regardless of whether they are on duty or not? Zhu Zhen pouted, "The master didn't say anything, who wants you to meddle in your affairs?" Break into any place, and you are not afraid that someone will see you and shout that the Praetorian Guard has taken you. Although he has a bad mouth, his nature is not bad, and Zhu Zhen is just a hard mouth with him, and he is also a little worried in his heart.

When the words came out, the bamboo basket felt strange again, his face was a little hot, and he dusted the table in his hands, just trying to hide the embarrassment on his face. The person who came might as well her sudden "smoke array", while retreating a little, coughed twice with a fist, and said, "Does anyone dust the table like this?" The more dust you dust, the more you go! Seeing that there was less dust, he came back closer and said, "Let's go, take you to a fun place!" ”

The bamboo basket put the duster aside, sat down at the round table in the room with his back to the window, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a small sip of it pleasantly, but turned a deaf ear to the words of the visitor.

Seeing that there was no movement outside the house, Zhu Zhen wondered, turned sideways slightly, and looked at the window with his residual light, but there was no figure. Zhu Zhen felt that he was not like a person who turned around and left after saying a few words like this, but he didn't know what tricks he was going to do, so he lowered his head and took a sip of tea. The water was still in her mouth, and the bamboo basket listened to any movement in the window, and before she could react, someone slapped her shoulder hard, and the bamboo basket choked.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" Zhu Zhen brushed the teacup, leaned over and coughed, and the moon-white hem was close in front of him. One hand clamps the bamboo basket's arm, and the other hand pats the bamboo basket's back, with just the right amount of force. Until the wheezing gradually subsided, Zhu Zhen got up, and his little face was still swollen and red.

"Scaring you?" The visitor took a few steps back and leaned against the table by the window.

Zhu Zhen ignored him and strode to the door, but saw that the door was locked inside and unopened, so he turned his head and frowned and asked, "How did you get in?" ”

Hearing the words of the bamboo basket, the young man's smile was even stronger, flamboyant, but not annoying. He didn't speak, just pointed to the window.

"You jumped in?!" Zhu Zhen shouted when he saw it.

Zhu Zhen saw him striding over, grabbed his wrist, walked to the window, and before he could ask anything, he was suddenly picked up by him and jumped out of the window! As soon as he landed, the visitor put down the bamboo basket, and he was also a little gasped. Zhu Zong's chest rose and fell for a while, and he pointed at the visitor: "You, you, you!" "I can't go on.

The person who came stretched out his hand to block it, wrapped the hand of the bamboo basket in his hand, put it down, and said, "Since the door is not open, you look like you ignore people, and you don't follow the window, where do you want to start?" ”

Zhu Zhen shook off his hand, gave him a blank look, closed the window, turned around and went out of the courtyard, and said as he walked: "Where are you going?" I can't walk away for too long! ”

The man behind him snorted and strode to follow.

"Carriage?" The bamboo basket is a little big, although the palace is very large, but in a carriage, will it ...... Too ostentatious?

The person who came patted the car board and said, "Get in the car!" As he spoke, he jumped into the carriage first, turned around and stretched out his hand to the bamboo basket.

The bamboo hoop handed over his hand, and kicked on the carriage with his strength, only to find that although the exterior looked, the body decoration was simple, but there was a hole inside, which made the bamboo hoop sigh: Although the sparrow is small, it has all the organs!

"Where is this going?" Feeling that the carriage had already gotten up, Zhu Zhen tilted his head and asked.

"Good place." The person who came poured himself a cup of tea, and it was like the bamboo basket before, and drank it by himself.

Zhu Zhen bit his lip, glanced at him, and asked, "What are you?" The words came out of his mouth, but his tone somehow weakened.

Putting down the teacup, the eyebrows and eyes of the person sitting were so burning, he said: "You guess, I will tell you if you guess." ”

"Oh." The bamboo basket obediently answered and hung his head. After a while, Fang came back to his senses, and his eyes shot over, "Who are you telling this?" His mouth was already pursed.

The young man squinted and smiled, wanting to say something, but he heard someone outside the car, and pressed his lips to signal the bamboo basket to silence. When the car moved again, Fang unloaded a few faint traces of stiffness and vigilance on his body, and lazily leaned against the wall of the carriage.

Fang Cai Zhuzhen quietly listened to the conversation outside the car, heard it vaguely, and couldn't decide, pondered for a while, after all, he couldn't bear it, and asked in a low voice: "We are out of the palace?" ”

"yes!" The young man was still in the posture of Fang Cai, and only pulled the corners of his mouth.

Zhu Zhen didn't digest this information for a while, and only after blinking did he widen his eyes and said, "Out of the palace?!" As he spoke, he instinctively threw himself over, trying to grab him by the arms, trying to shake him away to see what was going on in his mind. Unexpectedly, the car suddenly bumped, and Zhu Zheng's body was unstable, so he fell directly into the car, his arm hit the tea case, and he was hit by the numbness, and his hand only stayed on his knee for a short time, and then hung down weakly.

Seeing that the bamboo basket fell, the young man hurriedly leaned forward, grabbed her arm, placed her directly beside him, and asked, "Is the fall heavy?" ”

Zhu Zhen lowered his head and rubbed his arm, shook his head and said, "It's okay, just knock it and rub it." ”

The young man said, "If you sit well, what do you do when you suddenly get up?" Rubbing the bamboo basket, he said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Concubine Liang's mother has already taken leave." What's more, it's not once or twice that I've been out of the palace, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to lose you? ”

The bamboo basket had bulging cheeks and said, "I am a palace maid." ”

Hearing Zhu Zheng's words, the young man suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's just a palm-sized waist card." Moreover, who dares to check the four ...... Check this car? Forgive him for not having the guts! ”

Seeing that he was full of words, and he had already left the palace, Zhu Zhen couldn't, so he had to let go of his heart for the time being.

After a while, I only heard the little guy outside say, "Master, it's here." ”

The young man came out in response, and the bamboo basket also got out of the car - the surrounding area was empty, there were few buildings, and I couldn't see what the place was, but it was a little familiar, and the bamboo basket couldn't distinguish for a while, so I only looked around.

The young man pulled the bamboo basket around a few times, Fang stopped in front of a hall, pushed the bamboo basket against the wall and stood up, and said: "Make a wish on this wall, the wish can be realized quickly, this secret, the whole world is known to the two of them, do you want to try?" ”

Zhu Zhen smiled, she wouldn't believe this kind of deception to children! But looking at the sincerity in his eyes, he couldn't say anything if he refused, and Zhu Zhen said: "Since it is so effective, I want to try!" He pushed the boy away in a decent way.

Seeing that he really ran away and disappeared, Zhu Zhen laughed in his heart. I thought about talking nonsense, but when the smooth wall blurred his face, the bamboo basket opened his mouth and closed it. Sighs just slipped out of his mouth, and living like an ostrich without heart and lungs can really be done as if nothing happened? What should parents do in their own world? Home, can you still go back? Is she, or her?

For a long time, the bamboo basket didn't know what to say, the brick wall was very cold, and in such a hot day, it was so cold that the fingertips were trembling. Tears fell one by one, and the bamboo basket leaned his whole body against the wall, wanting to cry, but he didn't dare, for fear of being heard, he only pounded the wall, again and again. When his mood gradually stabilized, Zhu Zhen wiped his tears three or two times and muttered: "In the future, no one will call me Yu'er anymore." Pouting, the bamboo basket turned around, rubbed his face vigorously, and returned to his previous look.

Bypassing the hall, the bamboo basket didn't see the young man, and couldn't help but pout, shouting, "Hey! Where are you? ”

"Wow!" "Ahh

The young man jumped out from behind the bamboo basket, and the bamboo basket jumped away in fright, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "How old are you, still playing this scary children's trick?" ”

The young man hooked the corners of his mouth, and smiled, no matter how he looked at the bamboo basket, he felt that there was a conspiracy. But before the bamboo basket could figure out anything, the young man pulled the bamboo basket and ran, and even accelerated and accelerated, running at full speed, all the way to the side of the carriage. Zhu Zhen didn't even have time to catch his breath, so he asked the boy to pick him up and stuff him into the car, and then the boy also got in.

"Let's go." With the young man's shout, the carriage moved about.

While holding his breath evenly, he wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and his heart couldn't help but feel angry and sad, resentful and hateful. This stinky boy evokes my sister's painful memories! For a natural running idiot like Zhu Zheng, the running drills from junior high school to high school, as well as the 800-meter test that has been "chasing and pestering", made her really miserable!

The boy was calm and relaxed, breathing evenly, not at all like the man who had just run a few hundred meters at full speed. I saw him raise his hand and give the bamboo basket a violent shudder, and said, "I'm not nameless, hey, shouting?" ”

"Who knows what your name is, and you haven't told me." Zhu Zhen didn't have the strength to argue with him, so he only muttered quietly.

"Didn't you guess? Why, haven't guessed yet? Stupid! The boy poured a cup of tea and handed it to the bamboo basket. The bamboo basket was not polite, and took a big sip.

"The Forbidden City is so big and there are so many people, how can I guess which one you are? Always give a hint. "Zhu Zhen really wanted to tear his face, although it was very handsome. With a roll of his eyes, Zhu Zhen said, "Report your age." ”

The young man paused for a moment and said, "Fourteen." After spitting out the two words, his face was already meaningful.

Zhu Zhen pouted, wanted to get up, but finally didn't bother to get up, leaned back on the wall of the car, and said, "Thirteenth master, can you save an encore this time?" ”

The thirteenth elder brother's face did not change, and he was a little apprehensive, after all, he was an elder brother, even if he played together a few times, even if he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, even if he was ...... Forget it, it's my brother.

The bamboo basket slid down directly from the seat, squatting down to say goodbye, but was dragged by the thirteenth elder brother to sit beside him. The thirteenth elder brother nodded at the head of the bamboo basket and laughed: "This scares you?" Look at your guts! ”

Zhu Zhen stared at the thirteenth elder brother for a while, and then twisted his head, his small face was flat, his body was straight, and he didn't say a word.

"Angry?" The thirteenth elder brother leaned over, "Really angry?" The thirteenth elder brother reached out and pinched the bulging cheeks of the bamboo basket.

Zhu Zhen turned his face and said, "The slave doesn't dare." ”

When the thirteenth elder brother heard this, he said, "It seems that he is really angry." He took the hand of the bamboo basket again and said, "Okay, don't be angry, I'm just joking with you, come, smile." ”

The bamboo basket wanted to break free, but it was not as strong as the thirteenth elder brother, and he couldn't break free after pushing for a long time, so he had to give up and said angrily: "Brother wants to see people's smiling faces, and there are many people who come to respond, why force me to be a little slave?" This is true, the thirteenth elder brother at this time is in the limelight.

"I want to see you laugh!" The thirteenth elder brother was still smiling, and he didn't see any temper in Zhuji.

When Zhu Zhen heard this, he simply sat back and said, "Don't laugh, don't laugh, don't laugh!" ”

"Don't laugh? Really not laughing? The thirteenth elder brother smiled evilly and bullied the bamboo basket, and without waiting for the bamboo basket to escape to the other side, he began to itch the bamboo basket, "See if you smile, see if you smile!" ”

"Okay, laugh, laugh! Stop, stop, stop! Itchy, itchy! I'm afraid, I'm afraid of itching! Zhu Zhen couldn't stop laughing at him, and he couldn't finish a sentence.

After a while, the thirteenth elder brother stopped and said, "Wouldn't you have it early?" ”

"Humph!" The bamboo basket pushed the thirteenth elder brother away, turned around and sat opposite.

The thirteenth elder brother also sat down, and said in the ear of the bamboo basket: "Pear blossom wine, bamboo leaf green, flower carving, hibiscus drunk ......" Seeing that the bamboo basket was still pouting and refused to pay attention to him, the thirteenth elder brother spread his hands and said, "Tell me, how can you be willing to dissipate your anger?" ”

Zhu Zhen rolled his eyes and said, "All." ”

The thirteenth elder brother was choked for a while, and then said, "You are ruthless." ”

The voices of people outside the car gradually became mixed, and after a while, it was a lot quieter, Zhu Zhen thought that he was about to arrive at the palace gate, and he couldn't help but be a little nervous, and his hands were clenched tightly, it turned out that sneaking out of the palace was this feeling.

When the thirteenth elder brother saw it, he covered his hands and said in a deep voice: "Your thirteenth master is sitting here, what are you nervous about, so you don't give me face!" ”

Zhu Zhen was stunned at first, looked up and saw that he looked good, and wanted to refute him twice, but the corners of his mouth were already inexplicably torn apart. Such a beautiful young man, twenty years later, when he grows up to be the most powerful prince of the Qing Dynasty in the Forbidden City, what kind of scene should it be? !
