"But the slave maid thinks this is good, although the eunuchs are disabled, but as for them, they will be single-minded, and they will not be like other men." Mo Er's stubbornness made Ling Ruo strange, and his heart moved: "Mo Er, you are honest with this palace, do you have someone you like." ”

"Nope!" Mo Er shook her head without thinking about it, but Sixi's appearance lingered in her mind, which made her entangled, could it be that she fell in love with him?

This answer did not satisfy Ling Ruo, she still looked at her suspiciously, Mo Er answered so quickly, it was obviously insincere, but, who could that person be?

Staring at Mo Er, who didn't dare to raise his head, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and before it disappeared, he was grabbed tightly by Ling Ruo and blurted out: "Could it be Father-in-law?" ”

Mo Er was already entangled there, and when he heard Ling Ruo's words, he suddenly didn't know what to do, and he didn't even know where to put his hands and feet when he stood there. She did this, which made Ling Ruo even more convinced of her suspicion just now, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

Mo Er stood uncomfortably for a long time, never saw Ling Ruo speak, and said with some apprehension: "Master, slave and maid ......"

Before she could continue, Ling Ruo had already raised her hand and said, "You don't have to say it, this palace knows it in its heart, but this palace has ignored it, knowing that you are close to Gonggong Xi, but it has never paid attention." ”

Mo Er hurriedly said: "No, in fact, before the master asked the slave maid, the slave and maid themselves didn't know what to do, they only felt that the princess was very good, and he felt very comfortable with him." ”

"What about Father-in-law, what does he think?" To tell the truth, even if the palace can't help but eat, Ling Ruo doesn't want the people around him to marry a eunuch to be a vegetable household, no matter how good the eunuch's heart is and how high his status is, he is always a eunuch, and marrying a good woman to him is a grievance after all.

Mo Er shook his head blankly and said, "The slave doesn't know what to do. She didn't even understand her own thoughts, how could she touch Ming Sixi's thoughts.

"Mo'er, do you really want to marry Sixi and won't regret it? Even if you stay in the palace for the rest of your life, it doesn't matter if you can't be like a real couple? Ling Ruo asked this sentence very seriously, after all, it was related to Mo Er's happiness for a lifetime.

This time, Mo Er thought for a long time, and said: "In the future, the slave and maid dare not assert, but at this moment, if you have to marry, the slave and maid would rather marry the happy father-in-law, at least ...... He's a good guy. ”

"You girl." Ling Ruo shook his head and didn't speak again, but there was another thing in his heart.

In such a wait, time slipped slowly, and just after the third watch, I remembered the knock on the door outside, only to hear Yang Hai say outside: "Master, we should pass." ”

"Let's go." With these two words, Ling Ruozhan stretched out his sleeves, put his left hand wearing red gold chisel flower armor on Mo Er's arm, and Shi Shiran walked out. Outside, Yang Hai and the others were already waiting there, Shui Xiu was still holding a qi death wind lamp in his hand, Ling Ruo glanced around at the respectful few people: "Shui Yue stay here and wait, and the rest will go to the Heart Cultivation Hall with me." In addition, Shui Yue, you tell Sanfu that if he wants to save Jade, he will stay in the house for the rest of his life, especially if he is not allowed to step out of Chengqian Palace, otherwise he will not be able to protect his own life if he does not talk about Jade. ”

"Yes, slave and maid obey." Shui Xiu agreed, and when he was about to retreat, Ling Ruo suddenly remembered something and said: "Tell Xiao Zhengzi not to keep vigil, go to the outside of Kunning Palace to guard, and come to report as soon as there is any situation." ”

After Shui Xiu responded one by one, Ling Ruofang took everyone and led the lights all the way to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

At the time of the third watch, it was the darkest time, if there was no palace lamp lighting, it was impossible to distinguish the road ahead, so even so, the group walked very slowly, and when they arrived outside the palace of nourishing the heart, it was already more than half of the third watch.

Seeing Ling Ruo stop, Yang Hai bowed down and said, "Master, do you want the slave to report?" ”

Ling Ruoyao glanced at the Heart Cultivation Hall hidden in the night not far away, and said lightly: "No need, let's just wait here for a while." Shui Xiu, you put out the lights, don't let people see it. ”

Even if Ling Ruo spoke, everyone naturally complied, after the lights went out in the water show, the surroundings suddenly darkened, and the chirping of the summer insects even covered up the breathing of everyone, if they hadn't been very close, they would definitely not have found that there were still a few people standing here.

Although it is now the end of summer, there are more mosquitoes than they have decreased, and they have been buzzing in the ears of several people, waving away and flying, and one accidentally has been bitten out of a large bag, and the itchy person can't help but scratch it. Ling Ruo was also bitten out of two bags on his neck, and Shui Xiu said when he saw this: "Master, why don't you go and get mosquito repellent medicine." ”

Ling Ruo looked at the night and said, "No need, the hour is almost up, and besides, it is easy for you to be discovered when you go back and forth like this." ”

Shui Xiu retreated according to his words, and after waiting for a while, he finally saw the lights of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Ling Ruo straightened his clothes, and ordered Shui Xiu to re-light the Qi Death Wind Lantern and go to the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"Who?" When there were still more than ten zhang away from the Yangxin Palace, the palace people who were guarding outside found the palace lamp they were leading the way, holding the lamp and looking around.

Ling Ruo nodded slightly and said, "Has the emperor gotten up?" ”

The palace man replied respectfully: "Back to Concubine Xi's words, the emperor has already passed on that Gonggong Xi and Gonggong Su have entered, and they are expected to get up." Mother, but want to go in? ”

In the night, Ling Ruowei hooked her lips and said, "Yes, if you go in and pass the word, you will say that the palace asks to see you." ”

The palace people agreed, walked in quickly, and after a while, they rushed out and said with a more respectful attitude than just now: "The emperor has an order, please invite Concubine Xi to enter." ”

Ling Ruo hummed lightly, crossed him and stepped into the Heart Nourishing Palace, and when he arrived at the inner hall, he saw that the curtain had been lifted, Sixi was serving Yinzhen to change clothes, and Su Peisheng was standing aside with a copper basin carved with a double dragon play bead pattern.

Seeing Ling Ruo come in, Yin Zhen stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Why didn't you come here before dawn?" Can't sleep? ”

When he saw Ling Ruo, Sixi's movements in his hands froze, and then he was already as if nothing had happened, and continued to change Yinzhen's clothes.

At that time, Ling Ruo stepped forward and put his hand in his palm, "Yes, I don't feel sleepy, and I remembered that the emperor was almost ready to go to court at this time, so the concubine came over to wait for the emperor." After the emperor was saved, he said that the concubines were sleepy and did not serve the emperor to get up in the morning. ”

"Hey, I didn't say that, don't wronged me." Saying this, Yinzhen was full of smiles on his face, and said with a tight grip in his palm: "This time it's just that, don't come here at this time in the future, it's not dawn outside, it's not good in case you knock." ”

"How can concubines be so useless." Saying this, Ling Ruo took over the matter in Sixi's hands very naturally, changed into a court dress embroidered with nine golden dragons and twelve chapters for Yinzhen, and when he was buttoning it, he suddenly said: "Yesterday, Hongli asked the concubine a word, and the concubine didn't know how to answer, and wanted to ask the emperor for advice, I don't know if the emperor is willing to give advice?" ”
