294. 295: The Man in the Painting

Outside the red wall, strict soldiers guarded the important entrances and exits of the palace, and anyone who entered and exited had to show their waist cards before they could be released.

"Stop, forbidden place in the palace, you little girl leave quickly, don't linger here."

She took a few steps back, away from the guards' gaze.

Cold silence just sent her to this street facing the entrance to the palace, and the rest was on her own.

What did she have to do to meet Yan Mo?

With these paintings alone, she felt that she was not sure, and if she handed them over, she was afraid that she would be imprisoned for the crime of a thief, and that would be a failure!

What can I do?

Wu Ying was thinking of a way, and there was a sound of horses roaring from far and near.

I saw that on the middle avenue, a fast horse roared past, and the pedestrians on the side all gave way. On the back of the car sat a young man, dressed as a soldier in the army.

Because she couldn't see the person who was coming, she squinted her eyes slightly and saw clearly, it turned out to be the general, the general who came to search in the yard.

"General, General, wait a minute." She chased the horse, barking loudly behind him, and now she had to rely on the general.

Although if you hand over the painting to him, you may be mistaken for being the thief, but Wu Ying feels that he is not an unreasonable person, and she may be able to rely on him to enter the palace.

Hearing the sound behind him, Ying Jie pulled the reins tightly, and the horse's forefeet slammed into the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.

What a beautiful girl! This was the first thought that flashed through Ying Jie's heart, but he soon remembered that he seemed to have seen this woman's face somewhere.

"What is this girl, why do you want to stop my mount?"

"General, can you give me a moment, I have something for you."

"Oh?" Ying Jie looked at her suspiciously, but still let the horse under his crotch stop in place.

Wu Ying's face was overjoyed, and she quickly unwrapped her back.

Ying Jie carefully looked at the woman who stopped in front of his horse, delicate and weak, it looked like a woman from a rich and noble family, she shouldn't come to deceive him as a reckless man, as for what to show him, she was really curious.

But the more she looked at it, the more familiar she became, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt as if she had seen it somewhere.

"Ahh It's you! Ying Jie was secretly annoyed with her forgetfulness, her appearance has been deeply engraved in her mind in the past few days, why did she forget it at this time.

Isn't she the woman in the emperor's portrait!

No wonder he didn't react at the first time, the portrait that the emperor showed him, the woman on it was innocent, looking childish, about eleven or twelve years old. However, the woman in front of her is gentle and calm, her eyebrows are a lot more mature, and her innocence is still there, but she is more delicate, and she is even more beautiful than the portrait.

Ying Jie scratched his head, no wonder he didn't recognize her at first sight.

Wu Ying secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that he should already know that she is the prototype of the person in the painting, and should be able to take her into the palace.

"The general will understand after reading it."

"How do you have these paintings?" Ying Jie was shocked, he didn't expect that what she took out just now turned out to be the portrait that the emperor ordered him to find, and he didn't arrest her immediately, because he didn't believe that a weak woman could evade those big masters in the palace, so as to steal the picture scroll in the imperial study, and no one would think it was her if they saw it.

"It's hard for me to answer this question, can the general take me into the palace?" She said bluntly.

"The inner courtyard of the palace is not something you can enter, you can hand over these scrolls to me and leave, and don't mention to anyone that you have seen these scrolls." Ying Jie also felt pity in his heart, since the scroll had been found, he didn't want to treat her as a person who stole the painting.

She is like a white lotus, white, not contaminated with worldly feelings, this palace is the land of tigers and wolves, he doesn't want such a beautiful girl to set foot here.

Wu Ying's heart was a little moved, a stranger was so concerned, but if he didn't enter the palace this time, how could he see Yan Mo, and how could he find out Han Nuo's whereabouts from his mouth.

"I understand your kindness, General, but I really want to enter the palace." As for the reason, she really couldn't explain it to him.

"Tsk, I said why didn't you listen to persuasion, girl!" Ying Jie has been in the army all the year round, where will he coax any little girl, these three sentences can't get to the point, and he will be hot-headed.

Why are the little girls so stubborn now!

Shame, is this general so enthusiastic about everyone, in fact, it is a matter of one sentence, yes or no, I didn't expect to preach to her.

"Ying Jie, what are you doing here?"

Ying Jie heard someone call him, and quickly looked back, "It's Lord Ye." As for what he was doing, he could only smile bitterly, hey, he couldn't do anything about this stubborn girl.

Originally, he could have thrown his sleeves and left, but he couldn't be hard-hearted about this girl.

He could only look at Ye Kang as if asking for help, and motioned for him to come over to help.

Ye Kang smiled, thinking that this Ying Jie had provoked some peach blossom debt, and even chased him to the gate of the palace, which was detrimental to his image, so he hurried over to help him break the siege.

"This is a girl, I said are you ......" Ye Kang was just halfway through his words, and he began to tremble, "Little, miss?" I couldn't believe what I was seeing, staring at my eyes, the figure in front of me still hadn't disappeared, rubbing my eyes uncertainly, wondering if I was dazzled.

The figure is still there, it's real!

"Miss, it's really Miss!" Ye Kang strode up to Wu Ying regardless of his image, and circled around her several times, "It's really Miss, are you still alive?" "Could it be that the news in Cannes was wrong back then?

"Lord Ye, are you alright?" Above the court of the Southern Kite Kingdom, no one knows that Lord Ye is the emperor's best friend from birth to death, and his words in front of the emperor are worth dozens of words from others.

Where have you ever seen Lord Ye treat a girl so carefully, and even surrender his identity to call the other party Miss, so what has he become of himself, is he a slave?

"It's okay, it's okay, what can I do." Ye Kang waved his hand and hurriedly let the irrelevant people walk away.

"Miss, why are you here?" He desperately wanted to find out what went wrong back then, and why the people sent to Cannes would say that the young lady died of malaria. Miss Ming Ming is still standing alive in front of him now! If the emperor knew the news, how happy he would be.

"Who are you, I don't know you so much?" As soon as she opened her mouth, she called her Miss, if there was such a servant who became a great official, how could she not remember!

Ye Kang was stunned in the distance, and pointed at himself again in disbelief, "Miss really doesn't remember me?" ”

"I actually hurt my brain before, so some things in the past will give me a headache when I think about them seriously, but in fact, I came here because of those pictures."

Ye Kang was convinced of Wu Ying's words, and became more and more distressed when he heard her say this, who was it that would do such a thing to Miss, if the emperor knew, he would never let go of the person who hurt Miss.
