"Get on your knees!"

The sudden order made Liu Yuqing shiver, and Mingyue was at a loss, so she could only "poof" and obediently kneel down in front of Zhu Yi.

Zhu Yi looked at her condescendingly and asked coldly, "You went to the kitchen tonight to ask for egg custard?" ”

Prince Tangrui actually came to ask the whereabouts of a bowl of egg custard in the dead of night, and the three girls were a little confused. Mingyue timidly replied: "Yes, because our young lady didn't have dinner, so"

"You're the only one?" Without waiting for Mingyue to finish speaking, Zhu Yi interrupted her coldly.

Mingyue said honestly: "At that time, Miss was copying Buddhist scriptures, Caixia was busy working, and I was the only one free, so I went to the kitchen." ”

Zhu Yi raised his eyes and looked at the Nanmu moire table on the couch, on which was a scattered Buddhist scripture, and next to it was a neat stack of plain paper full of ink. There was also an overturned basket on the couch, and the couch was full of all kinds of woven buns.

It's good that he didn't find the wrong person, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and on his face as cold as ten thousand years of ice, a cruel banter like a cat and mouse appeared, and he said coldly: "Take it away!" ”

Zhu Yi turned around abruptly and walked out, and the two dark guards who came with him swooped over like eagles. first took Mingyue's jaw off to prevent her from crying, and then grabbed her arms left and right, and dragged her straight out.

"Stop!" Seeing Mingyue shaking her head desperately in fright, she was dragged out of the house. Liu Yuqing finally recovered from the shock, she swooped over and pulled the arm of one of the secret guards, screaming, "Stop. Where are you going to take her? ”

"Princess, please let go, we are carrying out the prince's orders." The secret guard knew her identity, so he didn't dare to be too presumptuous. But it's also not too polite.

Liu Yuqing hurriedly threw away the secret guard and ran out first, she opened her arms in front of Zhu Yi, who was about to step out of the hospital, and said sadly: "Lord Wang, please stay, I don't know what Mingyue has committed to be blamed for this?" After a pause, she bit her lip and said, "Could it be that Yue'er is not sensible." Is Aunt Qin unhappy? It was the only reason she could think of.

Zhu Yi stopped and looked at her quietly, the corners of his mouth went up, and he seemed to have a slight smile. But such a smile made her heart astringent. My knees are weak, and I have a little difficulty breathing.

Under his gaze, Liu Yuqing's heart was beating rapidly, and the sound was repeated. It slammed into her thin chest. It's too loud. It was so loud that Liu Yuqing felt that Zhu Yi on the other side had heard it clearly.

Thinking about it like this, her heartbeat became louder, and at the same time, her head began to dizzy, and cold sweat unconsciously ****ed her back. She couldn't help but lower her head, her shoulders shrunk, and her dark eyes were staring at the ground in fear. The outstretched arms slowly drooped down.

It's a pity that she didn't hear any explanation from Zhu Yi, so she heard a soft sound of "Zheng-". A sharp sword gleamed against her throat.

He drew his sword!

He actually drew his sword and pointed it at her!

They're husband and wife! Even if the enemy meets, it will not stop there. Liu Yuqing's heartbeat skipped a beat in an instant, and she finally knew what it was like to mourn more than die.

The blood on Liu Yuqing's face faded all of a sudden, she stared at her dark eyes, biting her lower lip, and staring at him in disbelief.

Under the silver moonlight, the handsome face that once made her love to the bone is now full of tyranny and distortion. He was so strange in her eyes, perhaps, this was his true face. What she used to love was just a demon in an elegant mask.

Caixia, who staggered out of the house, saw this scene, exclaimed, and hurriedly stepped forward to widen her eyes and stunned Liu Yuqing, away from the sharp tip of the sword. Zhu Yi snorted coldly, put away the sword, and strode out of the courtyard.

The two secret guards also escorted Mingyue past her, and Liu Yuqing's body stiffened, and she immediately wanted to stop it. Caixia hugged her waist tightly, shook her head desperately with tears streaming down her face, and said, "Miss, please, don't go over, don't go over!" Angered the prince, I'm afraid that even you won't be able to protect yourself."

Mingyue also saw the shocking scene, she gave up the struggle, and let the people escort her out of the courtyard with a dead face. The courtyard door was slammed shut, and the old and frightened whisper of the butler was heard outside the courtyard, and Zhu Yi's cold voice immediately came into the ears of the master and servant.

"From today on, the princess and her maid are not allowed to step out of this courtyard for a single step, if there is negligence, this king will take you for blame!"

On Liu Yuqing's originally stunned face, tears fell like raindrops, and she slowly squatted down holding her shoulders that were trembling slightly because she was uncontrollable. The sobbing sound grew louder and louder, and finally turned into an irrepressible cry.

"Miss, what are you going to do in the future? What should you do in the future? Caixia chattered nervously, she squatted down, tried to open her arms, and hugged Liu Yuqing's thin shoulders into her arms. But her strength is so weak, so weak that she is full of spurning for herself

On the fifteenth, an inconspicuous carriage shuttled through the bustling streets of Chang'an. The driver was a rough man with a lame leg, and he knew that he must have come from afar by looking at his dusty appearance, but when he was flexible in the streets and alleys, it was not difficult to guess that this person was very familiar with the terrain of Chang'an City.

The carriage turned east and west in Chang'an City, and finally stopped at the mouth of an alley, the man jumped out of the carriage, lifted the curtain and said respectfully: "Madam, it's here!" ”

A woman in a woman's bun and a simple cloth skirt jumped out of the carriage, straightened her unkempt hair, and smiled at the man, "I have arrived safely, you can go back on business." ”

"Yes, ma'am!" The man bowed his hand to the woman, then jumped into the carriage, pulled the horse's head and walked away.

After seeing the carriage leave, the woman raised her head and looked into the alley, which was very deep and flanked by high walls. There were also several tall hawthorn trees poking their heads out of the walls, and their branches were full of purring hawthorn fruits. Those red, golden-speckled hawthorn berries are a mouth-water.

Although the alley is deep, there is only one family. The woman, visibly agitated, lifted her hand to comb her sideburns and tugged at the wrinkles of her skirt. Look down and see that there is no more blemish on your body. She walked slowly.

The vermilion lacquer gate, the bluestone slabs paved with steps, the eaves and arches, are quite magnificent. The woman stretched out her hand and tapped the brass ring on the door, and in a short time an old voice sounded inside: "Here it is!" Here it comes! ”

The door squeaked open!

"Who!" An old man in a green cloth coat poked his head out and asked. When he saw the face of the woman in front of him clearly, a pair of faint old eyes immediately glared at the boss. He stammered incredibly "small, small, small"

The woman's eyes sparkled with water. Choked up: "Fu Bo, don't come to harm!" ”

"Little, Miss!" Fauber immediately opened the door wide, and then patted his thigh and said happily, "Miss." You're finally back. ”

Zhong Ziyuan nodded. Said meaningfully: "Yes! Finally came back alive! She raised her feet and stepped into the threshold, stepping into the Zhong family's compound that had haunted her for months.

Fu Bo quickly went in to report the news, but Zhong Ziyuan walked slowly behind. The familiar paths, the still green trees, the bright red cannas, and the smell of peach blossom beauty pills in the air, everything is so familiar. The familiarity made her nose sour and her heartbeat intensified.

"Miss." Fang'er happened to be carrying a bamboo basket and walked slowly out of a path. Suddenly, I saw Zhong Ziyuan standing quietly in the courtyard. I couldn't help but be shocked.

Zhong Ziyuan's originally flying and joyful mood couldn't help but sink suddenly when she saw Fang'er's slightly bulging abdomen. She suddenly remembered that before she ran away, this Fang'er was about to die and live, and wanted to be a concubine for Zhong Jinchuan. Now that she has been looking at her belly for at least three months, can she really succeed?

In the past half a year, Zhong Ziyuan has gone through several hardships of life and death, and her willpower has become extremely resolute and strong, and even faintly carries a sense of evil. Her eyes only need to be slightly condensed, and that kind of coldness and sharpness are simply unbearable for ordinary women like Fang'er.

Fang'er's face turned white, she staggered back a step, and then whispered: "I, I'm going to inform the master" She turned around in embarrassment, regardless of her discomfort, and ran away quickly with the corner of her skirt. Only Zhong Ziyuan was left staring at her hasty back thoughtfully.

"Miss, Miss" Qing Dai got the letter and rushed over. When she saw Zhong Ziyuan's eyes lit up, she immediately rushed forward and grabbed Zhong Ziyuan's sleeve excitedly, her small mouth opened, and she cried before she could speak.

She cried so presumptuously, still with tears and snot flowing wantonly on her face, like a lying child. didn't forget to babble and said: "Little, Miss, you are too ruthless, how can you leave a letter and run away without making a sound." I ran out for so long, and I didn't come back with a letter from my family to report my safety. Don't you know that the old lady will be worried? Don't you know that Cardamom and I will be sad? We've never been apart for so long, you're alone, there's no one to take care of, if you're hungry or thirsty, who do you go to? Woowoo"

Seeing Qing Dai, Zhong Ziyuan was quite excited, she listened to the count, and took out a handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face for Qing Dai, and comforted: "Okay, don't cry, I'm not back!" ”

"Aster, is Aster back?"

Qing Dai hadn't calmed down yet, and Sister-in-law Liu helped Mrs. Zhong and rushed out of the inner courtyard. Zhong Ziyuan hurriedly turned around and said excitedly: "Mother, it's me who is back!" ”

After Mrs. Zhong saw Zhong Ziyuan dressed as a woman clearly, she suddenly stopped her foot. Zhong Ziyuan in her memory has always been proud and confident, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes are always so high-spirited. No matter what kind of difficult and difficult time she is in, there will be an amazing burning light in her eyes.

But in front of her, her face was full of wind and frost, the tips of her eyebrows frowned unconsciously, and her bright eyes were so gloomy at the moment. The lips that are as pink as cherry blossom petals have a thin layer of skin, and I don't know how many hearts are burning to torment her like this.

These are nothing, when Madame Zhong moved her gaze to her woman's bun, her heart immediately palpitated, her head "buzzed", her eyes suddenly darkened, and her body slid down.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" This was the last exclamation that Madame Chung heard before she fainted.

I don't know how long it took for Mrs. Zhong to slowly open her eyes. She found herself lying on the bed, the room was quiet, only a few finches outside the window were chirping non-stop, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and comforted herself: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a dream." ”

Mrs. Zhong sat up with her body propped up, Zhong Ziyuan heard the movement, and hurriedly opened the door curtain and walked in: "Mother, you are awake!" She drove forward, took a soft pillow for Mrs. Zhong to put behind her waist, and then said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if my mother is faint, but it frightens me and my father!" ”

Zhong Ziyuan seemed to have bathed, her body exuded a faint fragrance, she wore a light blue long skirt that she was used to wearing at home, and her wet hair that had not yet dried was scattered on her shoulders. It doesn't seem to have changed except that it is much thinner.

Mrs. Zhong's heart was in a trance, as if the previous months of suffering were just a nightmare that was too long. Now that I finally woke up, the daughter in front of me had been obediently staying in front of her, never far from the house, and had not come back with a woman's bun to scare herself.

"Mother!" Zhong Ziyuan saw that she was in a trance, so she had to raise her voice and advise: "Drink that fetal pill quickly!" ”

Mrs. Zhong came back to her senses, and when she heard this, her old face couldn't help but turn red, and she twisted: "You know? ”

Zhong Ziyuan pursed her lips and smiled, "Mother, have you forgotten, I am a doctor, how can such a major event as pregnancy be hidden from me." Although Mrs. Zhong felt embarrassed, she obediently drank the fetal pill under Zhong Ziyuan's service.

After drinking the medicine, Mrs. Zhong naturally pulled Zhong Ziyuan to ask about what had happened for more than half a year. Zhong Ziyuan was afraid that she would be sad, so she only picked up some interesting customs and told her. Those sufferings, tortures, bloody storms, nine deaths, she didn't say a word at all.

Mrs. Zhong listened with relish, feeling that she had just gone out to enjoy the mountains and rivers. It's just that the place is a little farther away, and it takes a little longer.

Mrs. Zhong also told Zhong Ziyuan about the big and small things that had happened at home for most of the past six months. It turned out that after Zhong Ziyuan left, Zhong Jinchuan took over and made the peach blossom beauty pill and the worry pill better and better. He even found a shop and hired a shopkeeper, who specialized in selling these two kinds of pills.

Fang'er was still interested in hooking up at first, and ran to the shop diligently every day, delivering snacks, fruits, and meals to him. It is also strange to say that when Zhong Ziyuan was at home in the past, Zhong Jinchuan was still warm and sympathetic to Fang'er. But as soon as Zhong Ziyuan ran away like this, he seemed to be a different person, and he no longer had any warmth for Fang'er. (To be continued.) )
