I walked hurriedly along the winding paths of the palace with my head bowed.

"Girl, the wall is the palace gate, and the guards guarding the door recently are very strict with the people who enter and exit, you have to be careful."

A little eunuch who walked in front lowered his head, leaned slightly sideways and lowered his voice to instruct me carefully.

"I see."

Bodhisattva's work efficiency is really high, three days ago I told An Qingjie to let him find a way to let me out of the palace, early this morning, An Qingjie brought two eunuchs dressed as palace people, a superb girl with a disguise skill is now sticking to a face exactly the same as mine lying on the bamboo chair in a daze, and the front of me to leave the palace is another eunuch dressed as a palace person, although it looks a little young, but the work is steady and cautious, reassuring.

"Girl, the palace gate has arrived."

"Hmm."

I stretched out my hand and pulled the eunuch's hat on top of my head, bent humbly, my head drooping lower, and followed the little eunuch who led me out of the palace, and walked towards the group of guards in armor, with swords in their hands, and a serious face.

"Oh, little Mencius, this time you went out to buy supplies with the order of the lady of the palace?"

A hearty voice with a smile sounded suddenly, it seems that the little Mencius who took me out of the palace often goes in and out of the palace gate, and he has long been familiar with the group of guards at the palace gate.

"Brother Qi, it turns out that you are on duty today! I knew that I would bring you the good wine that Concubine Yun gave me last time. ”

"Good wine! Hehe, it's hard for little Mencius to remember my good mouth for you, I'll be on duty tomorrow, just bring the wine. ”

"By the way, Brother Qi, this is my warrant, it will be Concubine Yun's birthday in a few days, I will go out to buy some birthday supplies, this is Xiao Lingzi who will help me move things, you can take a look, if there is no problem, we will go out!"

"It turned out to be a procurement of supplies for Concubine Yun! Then hurry up, don't delay the time to return to the palace. ”

"Thank you, Brother Qi! Xiao Lingzi, let's go! ”

Xiao Mengzi hurriedly thanked him, turned around and hurried towards the palace gate.

I took two steps to follow him, and just as the two of us were about to leave the palace gate, suddenly a drunken voice sounded out of thin air behind me, stopping us from moving forward.

"Wait a minute, you two turn your heads!"

Little Mencius and I stopped and turned around slowly.

I still hung my head and stared at the ground beneath my feet, but I couldn't help but hold my breath because of the sound of messy footsteps approaching me closer and closer, and at the same time a heavy smell of alcohol hit my nose.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince, this is the little Mencius of the palace servant, he is specifically responsible for collecting extra-palace supplies for the palace maidens, this time he went out of the palace to procure birthday supplies for Concubine Yun, and the latter is his helper Xiao Lingzi."

That hearty voice sounded respectfully, and the guard, whom Little Mencius called Brother Qi, explained to the man who we were.

His Royal Highness the Second Prince? Zero snow night in the north!

I was startled, and my head hung lower.

I once heard the gossip Lan Ya mentioned in my ear that Beixue heard that Concubine Xian Niangniang had an accident, and after returning to the palace privately regardless of the safety of the border pass, he was imprisoned in the prison by the angry Emperor Tianming, and he was almost forgotten for three years. Later, Su Jingyi interceded for him in the court, and Emperor Tianming seemed to think of his second son in the prison and released him two years ago, but he deprived him of the throne and sent him to the palace gate as a gatekeeper general.

A pair of white boots embroidered with auspicious clouds stood unsteadily in front of me, and the strong smell of alcohol kept spraying on the top of my head, making it impossible for me to breathe.

I didn't dare to look up, there were very few people in this palace who knew Princess Ling Shang, but the person in front of me had seen me when I was a child.

I happened to be there, although I was still young at that time, I was not sure if he could recognize me, so I could only bow my head patiently, hoping that he could let us go after hearing the guard surnamed Qi explain.

"Raise your head!" A drunken voice sounded softly overhead.

"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, this little brother of the slave has just entered the palace not long ago, and he is afraid of being born with a thin face, Your Highness, don't mind, the slave has a warrant to leave the palace, Your Highness, do you want to take a look!"

Seeing that it was not good, Xiao Mencius stood beside me with a smile, and handed the warrant to leave the palace in his hand in front of the drunken and misty Beixue Yeling.

"Get out of here, today His Highness wants to see what your little brother looks like, if you don't want to die, get out of the way!"

Beixue Yeling's drunken voice sounded viciously, not like a noble prince, but no different from a scoundrel on the street.

I don't know what happened to him in the three years in prison, but he tortured a noble and majestic prince general into a drunkard who was sloppy and cheating.

It is said that he was the first of all the princes of Emperor Tianming to be crowned king.

"If you don't want to die, raise your head!"

It may be that my disobedience has aroused the drunken Beixue Night Zero in front of him, and his voice has been dyed with a few hints of cruelty, and I have reason to believe that if I don't raise my head again, he will definitely pull out the long sword at his waist and kill me.

"Yes."

My heart trembled, and I slowly raised my head in response.
