Early the next morning, Lu Yan woke up at night, not so much waking up, in fact, she didn't fall asleep at all, after thinking about it all night, she didn't make a final decision, seeing that the sky was already bright, she also knew that she couldn't drag it out anymore, so she could only get up first and hurriedly went to Qin Qin.

Qin Qin got up earlier than Lu Hui, and when Lu Yan arrived at her late, she was already sitting there waiting for her, and when she saw her come in, she immediately asked, "How is it?" Have you thought it through? ”

"Teach Xi, I'll ......" Lu Yanwan was about to speak, but Okra hurriedly ran in and interrupted Lu Yanwan's words.

"Teach, it's not good, the female envoy next to Shi Niangzi came to tell me that Shi Niangzi was scared and sick."

Okra trotted in front of Qin Qin and said with a slight pant.

Qin Qin frowned, and immediately asked, "Why is she sick again, she is resting in her room, what can scare her?" ”

Okra gasped, and then explained: "Listening to the female envoy beside her, as soon as Shi Niangzi woke up in the morning, she found that the bed was full of all kinds of insects, and she was scared half to death. ”

Qin Qin was even more puzzled after hearing this, the feng shui of the teaching workshop is not right these days, how can it be all snakes, insects, rats and ants, although during the Dragon Boat Festival, the five poisons have all run out, but there has never been such a situation in the teaching workshop in the past.

Lu Yanwan, who was standing on the side, was also a little surprised when she heard this, she just wanted to scare Shi Jingyao and avenge Shishi and Si Qingqing, but she didn't expect Shi Jingyao to be so frightened, so she fell ill.

Qin Qin glanced up at Lu Yanwan with a wry smile, spread his hands and said, "Wanwan, it seems that you have to go this time, otherwise our sect will be a crime of bullying the king, and everyone will suffer." ”

The expression on Lu Yanwan's face suddenly became ugly, what else could she say now, even if it was for the lives of so many girls in the workshop, she had to bite the bullet......

"Okay, you go and change your clothes quickly, and dance with Red Peony, I'm still very relieved of you, you just don't have to be nervous, don't let go just because you're performing in front of the emperor and queen, they are all human beings, and they won't treat you badly." Qin Qin stood up, patted Lu Yanwan's shoulder, and said comfortingly.

Lu Yanwan also thought about it at this time, since she couldn't hide, then she should face it calmly, anyway, she was no longer the same person in the previous life, and she would never let herself fall into a miserable fate like the previous life.

Lu Yanwan changed her clothes and went to see Hong Shao, she knew about Shishi and Si Qingqing's injuries yesterday, and she was also worried all night, and now she knows that Lu Yanwan is going to replace the two of them, but she is not too surprised, after all, she is familiar with this dance, and Lu Qingwan is no less than the three of them.

Because three people became two people, Qin Qin made some subtle adjustments to the dance movements, so that the whole dance would not have a sense of disobedience, both of them were already very proficient in this dance, so after practicing a few times, Qin Qin was almost satisfied, and carefully told her some precautions, and Chun's mother sent someone to urge.

Qin Qin took Lu Huiwan and Hongshao to Mother Chun, both of them had already changed their clothes and put on a veil, Mother Chun's face was not very good-looking, those somewhat cloudy eyes looked at Lu Haowan carefully for a long time, and finally nodded slightly, and said: "I can still see it after finally wearing the veil, you two can be careful for me this time, if something goes wrong, not only you, but our workshop will have to be unlucky!" ”

Lu Yanwan and the two naturally lowered their heads respectfully, and Mother Chun let the two of them get into the carriage. After getting into the carriage, Hongshao untied one side of the veil, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said to Lu Yanwan with anxiety: "Wanwan, I'm still a little scared, you also know that I haven't been in Yichun Courtyard for a long time, when I went to the palace to perform, I was with other sisters, and I have my own sister Shishi and they take the lead, this time it's just the two of us, I really don't know the bottom of my heart." ”

Lu Yanwan smiled lightly, because of the faint purple rouge on her eyelids, which made her eyes more and more radiant, she was naturally nervous in her heart, but it was not the same as Red Peony's nervousness, but at this moment she couldn't show it, otherwise Red Peony would be more flustered, she stretched out her hand to hold Red Peony's hand, and said warmly: "I haven't performed in front of the emperor again, you still have some experience than me, how do we dance when we practice on weekdays, how to dance later, anyway, it's on the stage in the middle of the lake, The emperor and queen are far away from us, so you don't have to be afraid. ”

There is someone to accompany her and comfort herself, Hong Shao's heart is also a lot more settled, she looked at Lu Yanwan, and said with admiration: "Wanwan, you are much better than me, I am much more relieved to have you with me, fortunately, Qin Jiaoxi let you go, if it is someone else, I am really not at ease." ”

For the compliment of the red peony, Lu Yanwan just smiled dryly, but she was very depressed in her heart, she was also chasing ducks to the shelves, if there was another way, she was not willing to go up. The carriage soon arrived at Jinmyeongchi.

Lu Yanwan and his party were taken to the side hall by the eunuchs to prepare, she only combed her hair in a bun, changed her clothes, and got on the boat to the Huxin Pavilion with Hong Shao.

At this time, Lu Yanwan's heart was much more determined than last night, thinking that Li Yan hadn't summoned the female Ji of the teaching workshop much in the past two years, Xu had a mustard in his heart because of Xiangjun's affairs, and she and Red Peony would be no exception, probably after the performance, she could leave the stage to watch the dragon boat race.

After arriving at the Huxin Pavilion, I saw that there were still some eunuchs on the stage cleaning up, Lu Huiwan and Hong Shao rested on the side for a while, the more they waited like this, the more nervous they became, the more nervous they were, Hong Shao's mouth had words in her mouth, as if she was memorizing the lyrics, Lu Xiwan was bored and looked around, and waited for almost half an hour, Li Yan's royal car over there finally arrived, Lu Yanwan and the two immediately tensed their nerves, adjusted their clothes and hair buns, and prepared to go on stage.

Lu Huiwan was far away, and with everyone, he lay on the ground and shouted long live, and when the high platform gave instructions, Lu Huiwan and Hong Shao came on the stage nervously.

"In the past, I went back, the willows are still around, and now I think about it, and the rain and snow are falling. Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say what I want. The world is long, my heart is entangled, this life is long, and there is nothing else to ask for. If you can't ask for it, you can't give it up. He is born in the next life, and he is born in the next life, endlessly. Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say what do I want......"

The tactful and soft tune slowly sang from the mouths of the two, floating in the lake pavilion, and it actually had some ethereal taste.

Lu Yanwan danced slowly with the singing, and his heart became more and more calm, and after the dance, he was a little better than when he was practicing.

Hong Shao happily glanced at Lu Huiwan, and then bowed and retreated. When the two walked off the stage, Qin Qin immediately greeted them, and praised with a smile: "It's done well, it's not worse than the previous ones." ”

Hong Shao listened to Qin Qin's words, and became even happier, grabbed Lu Yanwan's hand, and her eyes were crooked with a smile, "Thanks to Wanwan, I'm not so nervous, and now I'm finally relieved." ”

The three of them were talking, and the reward eunuch sent by the emperor over there arrived, Lu Xiwan and the two immediately stepped forward to receive the reward, and the eunuch did not leave after the reward, staring at the two kneeling on the ground for a while, and then said slowly: "The emperor watched the performance of the two ladies, and the dragon heart was very happy, if you want to meet the two ladies, you get up and follow our family." ”

Lu Yanwan's heart suddenly sudden, and her mind was blank for a moment, why did Li Yan want to see the female ji on a whim, she was too unlucky, she was really afraid of something. Seeing that Lu Hao didn't react, Hong Shao pulled her hand anxiously, and then pulled her to thank her.

Lu Yanwan stood up in a daze, and under Qin Qin's worried eyes, he followed the eunuch out of the Huxin Pavilion with Red Peony. Lu Xiwan sat on the boat, I really hope that this section of the waterway will never be finished, she is very confused now, I am really afraid that she will not be able to restrain herself in front of Li Yan for a while, and show some hatred, so her little life can be explained, I am afraid that if she dies this time, she will not be so good and return to her soul.

No matter how reluctant Lu Yewan was in his heart, no one dared to slack off on the person the emperor said he wanted to see, and the two were quickly taken to the high platform by the eunuch, waiting outside the most central compartment, the eunuch only went in for a while, and soon someone passed her two in.

The red peony face was more excited than afraid, the white and tender cheeks were already flushed, she had already taken off the veil, but Lu Yanwan had been wearing it, and the eunuch didn't tell her to pick it up, she was naturally happy and confused, although maybe she would have to pick it up later, but it would be a burst to block it for a while, if Li Yan looked at her scarred face and lost her appetite, and immediately let her go, it would be better.

Lu Yanwan lowered her head and entered the house, not daring to raise her head all the way, and when the footsteps of the person in front of her stopped, she also stopped, and then knelt down to say goodbye, Lu Yanwan kept looking at the corner under her feet, and her eyes didn't dare to roll around, she knew Li Yan, on the surface, she looked kind and tight, but inside she was the most moody, and there was a common problem of the emperor's suspicion.

"Your Majesty, these are the two ladies who just performed in the Huxin Pavilion." It seems that a eunuch introduced the identities of Lu and Wan in his ear, Li Yan said lightly, and then slowly opened the royal mouth: "Raise your heads." ”

Lu Yanwan caught a glimpse of the red peony on the side who had already raised his head, so he turned his heart sideways and slowly raised his chin, and sure enough, he heard Li Yan's extremely low light "Huh".

Before he could speak, the eunuch beside him had already spoken, "Bold, how can you cover your face in front of the emperor, quickly remove the veil!" ”

Lu Yanwan didn't know where he got the courage at this time, he bowed down and kowtowed, and spoke, "Please forgive the emperor for the sins of the slave, the slave has a scar on his face, and he doesn't dare to insult the holy eye, so he wore a veil to meet the saint." ”

Lu Yan waited for a while, his head was sweating, and then he heard Li Yan say slowly: "I forgive you for your innocence, look up." ”

Lu Yan also opened up at this time, anyway, Li Yan didn't know her, she was so ugly now, she definitely couldn't look down on her, so she raised her head obediently, and she really saw Li Yan clearly at this time.

The royal blue group of Longzhi grass pattern satin robe, Ming gold embroidered dragon purse, with a double dragon playing beads of Hetian jade pendant, hanging bright yellow silk, hair tied with a purple gold crown, a white hosta with a treasure flower top. The look on his face was tired, but with a hint of inexplicable banter, but it added a trace of lazy and hateful charm to him, even if Lu Yanwan hated him again, he had to admit that Li Yan was very good-looking, it seems that the royal men were born well, then Li Wei is also Li Yan's cousin, and his birth is also very beautiful, but it lacks Li Yan's bearing.

Li Yan was slightly stunned when he saw Lu Xiwan's black and white eyes, and said with a smile: "Look at this eye, it should be a beauty, I said that there will be no rough women in the workshop, take off the veil, let me take a good look." ”

Lu Yanwan suppressed the hatred rolling in his heart, but his face was a little stiff, raised his hand, slowly unveiled the veil, lowered his eyes, and only looked straight ahead.

Li Yan didn't speak for a long time, and after a long time, he sighed a little regretfully, and only said three words lightly, "It's a pity." ”

Lu Yanwan didn't know what she was sorry for, whether it was a pity for her face, or a pity for missing such a beauty, anyway, she didn't feel a pity at all, and she decided to let the scar on her face last forever.

Seeing the scar on Lu Yanwan's face, Li Yan seemed to be more interested in her, and continued slowly: "You are not the female ji of the teaching workshop, it seems that your courage is really getting bigger and bigger, and you dare to fool me if you find someone at random." ”

"Please forgive the emperor, the girl of Yichun Courtyard, who was originally scheduled to perform in front of the emperor, was injured yesterday, and the teacher and mother couldn't, so I let the slave temporarily go on top, please forgive the emperor."

Li Yan didn't really mean to condemn the crime, looked at Lu Yanwan, and said: "I'm not such an inflexible person, besides, today's performance is very good, your singing and dancing skills are better than the average Yichun Courtyard girl, this time it can be regarded as a credit." ”

Lu Yanwan finally breathed a sigh of relief, Qin Qin and Chun's mother thought that they could be fooled, but they didn't expect Li Yan to summon them on a whim, fortunately she didn't pursue it, otherwise if Qin Qin and other people in the workshop were involved, she wouldn't know what to do.

Li Yan asked the eunuch next to him to reward the two of them with some things, so he lost interest in talking to the two of them, waved his hand, and let the two of them go out, looking at the back of Lu Yanwan leaving, Li Yan's face looked thoughtful, and after a while, he said to the henchman eunuch Li Dezhang next to him: "Go check this girl, I always feel that she is a little weird, from beginning to end, no matter what I ask her, her expression does not seem to have changed, it is really not the calmness that she should have at this age." ”

Li Dezhang naturally felt that the emperor was too cautious, but a little girl, even if she was different, so what, but since the emperor was interested, he was a slave, so he naturally had to do it.

Lu Yan was taken out of the room at night, the tense nerves finally relaxed a lot, and the two returned to the position specially arranged for the girls in the teaching workshop, Qin Qin was already waiting for them there, seeing that the two came back safely, they seemed to be relieved, and they sent some silver with the eunuch who brought them, and thanked them.

After the eunuchs left, Qin Qin immediately pulled the two of them in front of him, and asked them eagerly but cautiously, "Is there anything wrong?" ”

Red Peony's feelings at this time were very excited, and she immediately shook her head and replied: "It's okay, it's okay, you don't have to worry about us, the emperor treats us kindly, he doesn't blame us, and he also rewards us with a lot of things." After Qin Qin listened, she looked at Lu Yanwan, as if she was waiting for her answer.

"Don't worry, there's really nothing going on." Lu Yanwan and Qin Qin smiled comfortingly and said truthfully.

Qin Qin completely relieved herself, pulled the two of them to sit down on the chair, and said with great joy: "It's okay!" It's okay! Today can be regarded as a thrilling and dangerous, and it is rare for you to come to this Jinming Pond once, so let's take a good look at the dragon boat race. ”

Lu Yanwan nodded in response, turned his gaze to Jin Mingchi in front of him, his face seemed to be watching the performance intently, but he was thinking about other things in his mind, he knew Li Yan at about this time in his previous life, and the incident of Xiangjun had just passed, it stands to reason that Li Yan should not believe in the female ji in the workshop anymore, but at that time, he was extremely interested in himself, almost as long as he agreed, he could enter the palace and get a position, now think about it, Lu Yanwan felt that it was impossible for a person like Li Yan to be confused by his appearance alone, maybe he actually had another purpose, but he was a little girl like himself, what could he do to make him, she couldn't understand this after thinking about it for a long time, so she simply stopped thinking about it, anyway, the things in the previous life would not be repeated in this life, and it was meaningless to continue to dwell on them, just like today, when she and Li Yan met again, it was also plain, and nothing bad happened.

After sitting and watching the dragon boat race for a while, Lu Yuwan felt a urge to urinate, so he said to Qin Qin beside him: "Teach Xi, I'll go to the toilet (here specifically refers to going to the toilet), and I'll be back soon." ”

Qin Qin was afraid that Lu Yanwan was not familiar with this place, so he asked with concern, "Do you want me to let someone take you there?" ”

Lu Yanwan shook her head, "I've been here before, so I know where that place is." ”

Qin Qin nodded at this time, and gave a few more instructions, telling Lu Yanwan to be careful. Jin Mingchi occupies a lot of area, so there are a lot of latrines built everywhere, Lu Hui found a place after walking for a while, and soon solved it, and then returned to the road where he came, and when he was halfway through, he was suddenly stopped by a shout, "Stop!" ”

Lu Yanwan was startled, and subconsciously stopped, but did not look back, and soon heard a sound of footsteps approaching her, and when the group of people walked behind her, she didn't dare to look up, only saw the dark red Xiangyun boots in front of her. "I just thought I was mistaken, but I didn't expect it to be you."

Cognitive? Lu Yanwan was a little confused in her mind, and couldn't help but look up, and suddenly complained in her heart, lowered her head and didn't dare to look at it again, glad that she had just put on her face in order to save trouble, and asked with a confused face: "This son, do you know slaves?" ”

The person in front of him sneered, and his tone was a little annoyed, "Don't think that I won't recognize you if you put on makeup and wear a veil, Wanwan, don't forget our agreement." ”

Lu Yanwan was thinking about how to deal with the trouble in front of him, and a group of people came not far away, the leader was an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, wearing a gorgeous goose yellow palace dress, combing two round buns on her head, and a few knuckle-sized small goldfish on the hairpins, lifelike workmanship, like a living thing, and a white jade plum hairpin, a white hosta with a snow-white and smooth body, was carved by a craftsman with five lifelike white plums, and what is even more rare is that these five white plum blossoms are actually divided into yellow, green, and red three colors. It is extremely exquisite.

The girl seemed to be in a hurry, the wide cuffs slipped to the elbows, revealing a string of red jade bracelets worn on her left arm, the main material of the bracelets is two fish-shaped red jade connected at the end, and the rest is strung together with tourmaline, agate and beeswax, etc., the color of jade is mainly blue and white, red jade is not as rare as peach blossom jade, but pure and impurity-free red jade is also a very rare variety.

Lu Xiwan is a knowledgeable person, but looking at the little girl dressed in this makeup, she knew that her identity must be ordinary, she didn't dare to take a closer look at the girl's appearance, but she faintly complained in her heart, she knew that she would meet Li Wei here, a bad star, but she would rather suffocate to death than go anywhere.

"Little uncle, why do you go here fast, Fen'er is almost not able to get you." The girl lifted her skirt and walked to Li Wei's side with a slight pant, and the girl's soft voice was unique, with some slight complaints.

"Didn't you go back and stay well, I always ran around like this, if something happened again, the emperor wouldn't be able to spare me." Li Wei reached out and touched the little girl's head, and said with some helplessness and doting.

"Is Fen'er boring, those palace maids and eunuchs will please me, it's not fun at all, the little uncle finally went back to Beijing, and he didn't accompany Fen'er much." The little girl pursed her pink and delicate lips, and her tone was very aggrieved.

After complaining to Li Wei, the little girl seemed to have just noticed Lu Yanwan who was standing beside them with her head bowed, and looked her up and down suspiciously for a while before she looked at Li Wei and asked, "Little uncle, who is this person, do you know him?" It doesn't look like it's from the palace. ”

"Yes, someone I know." Li Wei replied to the little girl a little perfunctorily, but his eyes kept staring at Lu Yanwan, and the expression on his face seemed to be smiling.

The little girl frowned slightly, she didn't seem to like Li Wei's attention to other women, her whole temperament changed suddenly, and she was proud but naturally ordered Lu Yanwan: "You raise your head!" ”RS
