Chapter 133: Next Year's Covenant

Seeing Feng Linye, Xiao Yihan almost took a step back and forth with a conditioned reflex, blocking Shen Yunxi's thin body behind him.

Feng Linye pursed his lips, looking at Xiao Yihan's almost protective move of protecting Shen Yunxi, and then met his gaze and said nothing.

Shen Yunxi lifted her eyes, looked at Xiao Yihan's long figure in front of her, frowned slightly, and her mind turned a thousand times, then, she took a step back, and said with a light smile to Feng Linye: "Your Majesty." ”

Feng Linye rolled his eyes, his eyes fell on her, "It's late at night, where are you going?" His voice was low, his face was calm, and there was no emotion in it.

Shen Yunxi turned his head to look at Xiao Yihan, and then said, "Today is the Midyear Festival, I want to grab its tail and put it back into the river lantern." Your Majesty, do you want to go with us? ”

At the end, Shen Yunxi didn't forget to smile and invite Feng Linye.

"Nope. I'm tired of the day, and I want to go back to the palace to rest. You should have put it back sooner. The hour is getting late. Feng Linye shook his head, then glanced at Xiao Yihan coldly, turned around and left.

Gonggong Li looked at Xiao Yihan, sighed slightly, and then chased after Feng Linye quickly.

Shen Yunxi looked thoughtfully at the backs of the two leaving, and said, "Is there any problem between you and the emperor?" ”

Xiao Yihan retracted his gaze, looked at Shen Yunxi, met her momentary gaze, rolled his eyes a little weakly, and said, "No." He only said these two short words, but there were no other half words.

Shen Yunxi frowned at Xiao Yihan with doubts in his eyes.

Xiao Yihan straightened his face and said to her with a smile: "Why are you looking at me like this?" If you don't go to see the river lantern again, the midyear festival will be over. As he spoke, without waiting for Shen Yunxi to answer, he shook his head lightly and walked away.

Shen Yunxi turned to the side and looked at Xiao Yihan's figure, his eyes were deep.

He and Feng Linye's gaze just now, she could see it clearly, but he bluntly denied it, thinking that there were some things that he didn't want her to know.

Well, he didn't have to tell her everything. It's just that, this time, she vaguely feels that it has something to do with her.

Even if she doesn't say it, she won't force it.

Then, he walked up to keep up with Xiao Yihan.

Listening to the footsteps coming up behind him, Xiao Yihan finally breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, she didn't ask him again, if she asked, he would definitely not say anything about Feng Linye letting him keep his distance from her in Linhua Hall before.

If she knew about this, he didn't know what she thought about Feng Linye and him. What's more, he didn't want Shen Yunxi to know that Feng Linye was involved in the matter of him alienating her.

Xiao Yihan took Shen Yunxi to the moat in the palace, and the two crossed the rockery and sat down by the river.

The eunuch obediently sent two baskets of river lanterns, and the base of the river lantern was placed with lanterns, and the base was colored more, including blue, white and yellow......

The two of them took out the river lanterns from the basket one by one, put them lightly on the water, and let them drift away.

On the night of the Midyear Festival, in addition to making a wish, the river lantern also has a purpose, for the purpose of Pudu water ghosts and other lonely ghosts.

Although the ghosts and gods are very bizarre, but because of Shen Yunxi's bizarre rebirth experience, she silently hoped that the lonely souls and wild ghosts who died in vain in this palace could be purified, and the most reluctant souls would return to other places.

Xiao Yihan sat on the side and looked at Shen Yunxi, who closed his eyes and made a wish, the corners of his good-looking lips were slightly hooked, but he didn't say anything.

As soon as she put down her hand and opened her eyes, there was a loud bang in the sky, and when she looked up, she saw that the gorgeous fireworks reflected the whole sky in colorful colors.

Shen Yunxi looked at it, the corners of his eyes were crooked, and his face was full of excitement.

"If it's outside the palace, it's more lively than here." Shen Yunxi looked at the fireworks that bloomed and fell in the night sky, and muttered softly.

Although her voice was not loud, Xiao Yihan was good at martial arts, so she could hear what she said clearly.

Xiao Yihan raised his head and lowered his eyes to stare at Shen Yunxi, and said, "Next year." ”

Shen Yunxi glanced at him, as if he didn't understand what he meant, but then he understood again. Nodding his head, he said, "Okay." It's decided. ”

"Hmm. I will not break my word. Xiao Yihan said firmly.

Under the gorgeous night sky, Shen Yunxi looked at the colorful fireworks, and he looked at her who was smiling.

Outside the palace, lanterns are hung in every house, and the lights are flickering.

……

Ruiwang's Mansion-Lanxin Yuan Shen Yunyou was dressed in a coat and sat at the table, his brows furrowed.

Earlier, she had heard about what happened in the palace in Su Lianrong, so she would not be able to sleep tonight, and she always felt that something was going to happen.

But, on second thought, what is she worried about here? Shen Yunxi had been imprisoned in the prison, and so far, she had never heard of anyone who could get out of the prison alive.

So, she thinks so much now, it's just a mediocrity here.

Shen Yunyou snorted lightly, then gathered her clothes and sat up, but before she could reach the bed, there was a knock in front of the door.

At this time, the only person who can knock on the door is Yahuan Xiuping beside her, but if there is nothing important, she will never come to disturb her in the middle of the night.

Then, she turned around and said, "Come in." ”

Pushing the door in, it was Xiuping who walked in, Shen Yunyou frowned slightly and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The princess is out of prison, if there is no accident, she will be able to return home tomorrow." Xiuping replied.

Shen Yunyou was stunned for a moment, "Is this news confirmed?" ”

"Sure." Xiuping nodded heavily and said, "Just now in the kitchen, the slave heard the princess's maid Shuang'er and Shu Ning talking excitedly about this. ”

Hearing this, Shen Yun sat down on the chair leisurely, so she was fine? The murderer? …… The people in the palace who contacted her...... Will it shake her out?! ……

As soon as she thought that person might shake her out, Shen Yunyou trembled, and a lot of sorrow suddenly came to her heart.

She was still here and guessed that she Shen Yunxi would definitely die if she entered the prison, but this idea was shattered before half an hour.

How could she Shen Yunxi be so lucky! Even if she used the people in the palace, even the queen mother was involved, she couldn't kill her! Could it be that her life is really as rumored to be, is her life too hard?!

So, how else can she trip her!

Shen Yunyou's face turned pale, and the fists in her sleeves were clenched tightly, what should she do now?!

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Xiuping looked at Shen Yunyou worriedly and asked cautiously. However, Shen Yunyou didn't listen to this voice at all, and was still immersed in her panicked thoughts.

Xiuping watched from the sidelines and couldn't help but be even more worried.

After half a ring, Shen Yun raised his head suddenly, grabbed Xiuping's hand excitedly and nervously, and said, "Xiuping, you go to the Shen Mansion immediately and tell Madame the news that the princess is fine." Go, go, go. ”

"Thisβ€”" Xiuping wanted to speak again and again, considering that it was already late now, and it was not appropriate to go at this time.

Seeing this, Shen Yunyou couldn't help but yelled at Xiuping angrily: "What are you doing in a daze?!" Go ahead! ”

"Yes." Xiuping no longer hesitated, turned around and opened the door in response, and walked out of Lanxin Garden quickly.

Shen Yunyou asked Xiuping to tell Mrs. Shen because she was indeed so flustered that she couldn't catch her head now, and she didn't know what to do, but she only hoped that it was on Mrs. Shen.

If you want to spread the word in the palace, you have to come up with a countermeasure. You can't just sit here and die.

However, the more she waited, the more anxious she became, and she stood up and went around the room in a hurry, and frequently looked in the direction of the door.

However, it didn't take long for Xiuping to come back. Outside the door, there was a sound of footsteps.

Hearing this, Shen Yunyou was even more frightened in his heart, and hid behind the closet to hide. Xindao said that someone came from this palace, but she forgot that even if someone came from the palace, it would not be one person, but a group of people.

In an instant, the door was pushed open from the outside, and Shen Yunyou, who was hiding in the shadows, secretly poked his head out, and what he saw was Xiuping, who was supposed to go to the Shen Mansion.

"Why did you come back so soon?" Shen Yunyou came out of the shadows and said to Xiuping who was looking for her with dissatisfaction.

Xiuping turned her head and looked at Shen Yunyou, a little strange at her sudden appearance, but she also cared about the identity of the master and servant, and didn't say anything.

Then, she took out an envelope from her sleeve, handed it to Shen Yunyou, and said, "As soon as I walked to the door of the mansion, I received a letter from someone sent by the Shen Mansion, and the person said that Mrs. Shen gave it to Miss. Therefore I will first come back and bring it to you. ”

As soon as Shen Yunyou heard that it was Mrs. Shen's letter to her, she immediately took it, thinking that she must have heard the news too. She hurriedly opened the letter, and Xiuping said to her as if she had thought of something: "Miss, I heard from the guards just now that the person who wanted to murder the Queen Mother was the maid ring next to Su Jieyu, and she had committed suicide. ”

"What? The murderer of the Queen Mother was the maid ring next to Su Jieyu? Shen Yunyou's action of opening the letter suddenly stopped, and he looked up and asked Xiuping in disbelief.

"Yes, that's what the guards in the palace said." Xiuping nodded and replied.

Hearing this, Shen Yunyou's heart finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then she continued to look down at the letter that Madame Shen had given her.

The content of the letter is basically the same as what Xiuping just said, saying that the 'murderer' who murdered the queen mother has been caught, so let her not panic, and in addition, there is one more thing she needs to do, that is, let her find a way to get rid of Shen Yunxi before she returns to the palace.

The reason is very simple, since she can get out of the prison, it means that their plan has failed. Although the real culprit has been found now, there is no guarantee that she will not find out that something is wrong with this incident and find their heads. Therefore, she can't be allowed to go back to her home, or she can't go back home safely.

Mrs. Shen's thoughts are basically the same as Shen Yunyou's, and Shen Yunyou has calmed down at this time, and it is true that when you think about it carefully. She couldn't put herself in danger.

Stand up, place the letter on the candle flame and light it to ashes.

Looking at the disappearing fireworks, the vicious gaze slowly gathered in her eyes.
