Chapter Ninety-Six: A Destined Encounter

"Did you carve it yourself?" Xue Lingyun was happy like a child. "It's so beautiful, you're the first person to give me a birthday present."

"If you like it, it's fine." Xuanyuan Yihan looked at Xue Lingyun's happy appearance and laughed unconsciously. In this way, the seeds of love slowly took root and sprouted in their hearts. Such a peaceful day was still broken by a chance encounter.

That day, Xue Lingyun was punished by Gonggong Li for breaking the kitchen bowl and kneeling in the alley. There was a heavy rainstorm in the sky, and the rain poured mercilessly on Xue Lingyun's body. For the first time, she felt so hesitant and helpless, and she suddenly missed Chinese New Year's Eve, the man who cried and laughed with her.

Xuanyuan Yixin was wearing purple casual clothes to relax by the lake, and as an emperor, he had a lot of helplessness. He likes to stand quietly by the lake on a rainy day, looking at the hustle and bustle of the sky, as if it is also a kind of venting for himself.

"Your Majesty, the weather is cold and the dew is heavy, don't catch the wind and cold." The one who spoke was Gao Changde, a eunuch who had served Xuanyuan Yixin since he was a child, and his words still had some weight in Xuanyuan Yixin.

"Let's go." Xuanyuan Yixin put away his confused eyes, saw that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, like beads with broken threads scattered on the ground, he got up and prepared to go back to the Qianqing Palace, he only brought Gao Changde and an entourage. The only way to return to the Qianqing Palace from Yanxia Lake is the Long Corridor Lane, which is very long and is made of bluestone slabs.

About halfway through, I saw Xue Lingyun kneeling on the side of the road, and Xue Lingyun was completely drenched at this time. Xue Lingyun, who heard the footsteps, raised her head, and she saw the person she was thinking about approaching her step by step. There was excitement, enthusiasm, and grievance in her eyes. For a while, the five flavors were mixed.

Xue Lingyun's legs were already numb from kneeling, and when Xuanyuan Yixin walked to her side, she couldn't hold back anymore. hugged Xuanyuan Yixin's leg and cried.

"Bold" Gao Changde's words were blocked by Xuanyuan Yixin's gesture before he finished speaking. Xuanyuan Yixin was just let Xue Lingyun hold him, and the strange thing was that he didn't have any resistance in his heart. Xuanyuan Yixin is a very clean person, even his concubine will feel uncomfortable when he touches him. If he was touched by such a dirty little palace maid in the past, he would not hesitate to die, but this time, he didn't want to kill her.

"You're there. That's nice. After Xue Lingyun spit out these words, he fainted. She knelt in the rain for nearly two hours, and was poured by the rain. I already had a fever, and my forehead was hot and scary.

Xuanyuan Yixin picked up Xue Lingyun and took her back to the dormitory. Xuanyuan Yixin's actions shocked all the servants served in the Qianqing Palace. They had never seen their master so close to a woman. Even the daily departure is just a routine, and it is carried away immediately after the pampering. On weekdays, I don't see Xuanyuan Yixin stepping into the harem. Not to mention bringing a woman to the Qianqing Palace, Xuanyuan Yixin's real dormitory has never had a woman come to the palace, and the palace maid is not allowed to enter even for cleaning. There was only one thought in their hearts at the moment, and this woman could not afford to offend.

Xue Lingyun was in a coma for two days before she woke up, she looked at the gorgeous arrangement around her, the embroidered curtains with dragon patterns, she was a little panicked for a moment, she searched around for Xuanyuan Yihan's figure, and her throat was hoarse because of panic.

"Girl. You're awake. A maid dressed in an emerald green palace dress walked over and smiled gently. Xue Lingyun knew the waist card on her waist. Only the rookie brought by the aunt in charge belongs to the mark of a first-class female officer.

"See Auntie." Xue Lingyun saluted the woman in front of him.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, get up quickly." This female official's name is Xie Wenxin, and she is a female official who is specifically responsible for teaching palace maids the rules. Xie Wenxin handed Xue Lingyun a glass of water, Xue Lingyun was very grateful, her throat was thirsty and about to smoke at this moment.

"Thank you, Auntie, where is this?" Xue Lingyun felt much better after drinking the water, she vaguely remembered that she was kneeling in the rainstorm, and she saw Chinese New Year's Eve when she was unconscious, could it be a hallucination, she recognized the wrong person. Looking at the embroidered dragon pattern, Xue Lingyun's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

"This is the Qianqing Palace, the girl must not call Aunt Wen Xin, Wen Xin will have to call the girl a little master in the future." Xie Wenxin stood beside Xue Lingyun and replied respectfully.

"Qianqing Palace?" Xue Lingyun's pupils dilated many times at that moment, although she was a low-level palace maid, she also knew that Qianqing Palace was where the emperor lived, and Fengxiang Palace was where the queen lived, and these places were places she never dared to look forward to. She didn't know even more, because she lived in the Qianqing Palace and stayed here for two days, the ladies in the harem had already exploded, and they wanted to find out under the pretext of sending supplements, but they didn't know how many waves they had been sent away.

"Girl, I'll freshen up for you." Xie Wenxin's words brought Xue Lingyun back to his train of thought. She looked at the silk on her body, the green silk scattered on her back, and was completely panicked.

"No need aunt, no need, I'm going to get out of here." Xue Lingyun ran outside barefoot.

"Girl, girl, no." Xie Wenxin shouted, chasing Xue Lingyun.

Xue Lingyun suddenly crashed into a bright yellow embrace, she quickly struggled out and touched her sore nose. The entourage outside the palace was stunned when they looked at Xue Lingyun running out barefoot. Xue Lingyun looked up at the familiar cheek and had mixed feelings for a moment, and looked at Xuanyuan Yixin aggrievedly.

"Look at what you see, and then look and gouge out your eyeballs." Xuanyuan Yixin shouted violently, and everyone closed their eyes, not doubting the credibility of this sentence at all.

Xuanyuan Yixin picked up Xue Lingyun, listening to his strong and beneficial heartbeat, Xue Lingyun suddenly felt relieved. Just looked at Xuanyuan Yixin blankly, she had never seen him angry. But for a moment, her heart was full of sadness, why didn't he tell himself that he was the emperor. Will he really eat what he brought him? Why wear old clothes? Why is there so much sorrow in his eyes? Looking at Xue Lingyun with complicated eyes, Xuanyuan Yixin felt very interesting. Her eyes are clear, no calculation, no **, no greed, it is so rare in this complex palace.

"See the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." Xie Wenxin looked at Xue Lingyun in Xuanyuan Yixin's arms and was very surprised, and stammered to say hello. Xuanyuan Yixin didn't pay attention to Xie Wenxin, hugged Xue Lingyun and walked straight to the Qiankun Palace, and put her on the bed. (To be continued......)
