Late at night on the first day of the first month of March, the Ye Tingsi suddenly ran out of water, and all the palace guards worked hard to rescue it, and the treasury used to store the palace records was still burned.

In the East Factory, Leng Qingtang was writing official documents at the desk, and at that time, thousands of households walked in from outside.

"Coming back?"

Leng Qingtang stopped writing and looked up, smiling very good.

Cheng Wanli gave a salute, and his dark square face was full of seriousness:

"When my subordinates entered the palace and saw Liu Bingbi, they did hear some important news. Also, when I left the palace on your orders, I took it back to the Admiral's Mansion and brought it back. ”

He raised his hand and climbed onto a red silk tightly wrapped object.

Leng Qingtang took it, placed it on the table, and then asked:

"What did the celebrant hear?"

"Back to the Governor, according to Liu Bingbi, Xichang Minglan has not been in the palace since he and Kagura Hou entered the palace five days ago. However, recently, a newcomer has been added to the palace of the imperial concubine, Xu is this maid is too delicate, every time she provokes Wan Yuyao's displeasure, she is often abused, and corporal punishment in the violent room is commonplace, so Yongning Palace often has chickens and dogs jumping......"

One side of the eyebrows was slightly raised, and Leng Qingtang smiled:

"Now the Shangyi Bureau is more and more able to do things, even if it is bright, it dares to send it to the palace of the imperial concubine, which is simply to push people into the fire pit."

Cheng Wanli's expression was different, and he was busy explaining:

"Governor, Liu Bingbi has already checked, his daughter's name is 'Xi'er', not from the Shangyi Bureau, but directly sent to the palace by the Gongyuan."

"Oh?"

Leng Qingtang's long eyelashes jumped, and his eyes suddenly lifted his eyes to look at Cheng Wanli:

"Have you seen the maid's palace register?"

Cheng Wanli shook his head:

"On that day, the court was drained, and the treasury where the palace books were stored was all burned to ashes, and the celebrant had no way to start."

Leng Qingtang pulled his lips with a "sizzle", lowered his eyes and thought silently, and only whispered softly for a while:

"If you want to say that Wan Yuyao's pink skeleton is moody, there are also substitutions in the palace from time to time, but it's just ...... How do you feel that this time it was a bit of a coincidence? …… Is Jingyang Palace good? ”

Cheng Wanli replied: "There is no abnormality. ”

"Hmm."

After Leng Qingtang heard this, the breath that was clenched in his chest quietly relaxed, closed his thick black eyelashes, and put one hand on his forehead, secretly laughing at himself if his nerves were too sensitive.

Now that Concubine Yu is pregnant, the unborn child is not only her talisman, but also can cause trouble for her at any time, in short, she needs to be careful in everything.

After a moment of silence, Leng Qingtang commanded:

"Wanli, you go and call Yunxi over."

……

The palace, at dusk, the remnant sun is like blood.

Concubine Yu Gu Yunyao was wearing a thin cloak of Hunan makeup brocade, anxiously waiting in the Kan Fang Pavilion.

Song Qin had already laid a cool four-cornered tassel upholstery on the stone chair, but her master was too excited in his heart and behaved restlessly.

After waiting for only half a moment, I saw a petite and delicate girl not far away, flashing green vine branches, and her emaciated figure was still trembling slightly under the warm light of the sun, and she was extremely weak.

Today, Tu Duxue was arranged by the head of the office in the side hall of Yongning Palace and began to pack up the Taoist scriptures.

Emperor Jingxiao emphasized the Tao, and Wan Yuyao, as the imperial concubine, naturally specialized in catering to the emperor's preferences, and began to drill the Taoist scriptures very early, in order to show off what she had learned while serving the holy driver, and win the emperor's favor.

The little eunuch who had specially brought news to Tu Duxue secretly flashed into the side hall and whispered to her that she should go to Kan Fang Pavilion to meet her acquaintances.

Tu Duxue knew in her heart that Concubine Yu must have taken action, so she simply cleaned up and went straight to the meeting place.

When she walked in front of Kan Fangting, she was stunned, she didn't expect that Concubine Yu Gu Yunyao would go out in person today to meet her "sister".

Now that you've seen it, you have to do it enough.

As soon as her little face changed, Tu Duxue immediately pretended to be pitiful, a few waves rolled up in her clear eyes, her body became weak, and she collapsed on the ground:

"Master Yu...... You're here...... Woohoo......"

Gu Yunyao's hesitant body suddenly froze in the pavilion, her eyes widened, and tears rolled down from her wet red eyes like pearls with broken threads, shattering to the ground.

"Yunxi? …… Tides! ”

trotted out of the stone pavilion, which really frightened the two men and women. Song Qin's face turned white instantly, and she hurriedly chased after her master, reaching out to help her steadily.

"Yunxi, get up!"

Gu Yunyao wept and personally picked up the girl, looking at the girl who had been reading for two years with tears in her eyes, and really felt the recurring scenes in her dreams in the past two years.

Yes, it's not a dream at this time, I really grabbed my sister's little hand.

Thoughts, surprises, sorrows...... A variety of emotions were mixed, and the heavy and complex eyes looked at the girl from head to toe many times before Gu Yunyao opened her mouth in a trembling voice, crying:

"I can count on seeing you, but I can count on you back...... Do you know that the year you left, I even had the heart to die......"

"Master, don't be too sad, you are pregnant now, you need to be careful in everything."

obviously hated it so much that she gritted her teeth, but Tu Duxue was caring in her attitude, wiped her face, and barely squeezed out a smile at the woman in front of her:

"The slave maid wants you to live well, and the slave maid is most looking forward to the opportunity to meet you again."

Gu Yunyao nodded sadly, entered the pavilion hand in hand with the girl, and asked:

"How did you come now? I'm worried to death. I thought you were discovered by the one from Yongning Palace, and you were punished again. ”

The girl said shallowly:

"Master, don't worry, the slave and maid are just unfamiliar with the road, and it is the slave and maid's sin to delay the time and worry you."

Gu Yunyao pulled her to sit beside her, and her mouth was a little dissatisfied:

"You don't have to be too careful with me here, just call me 'sister' as you used to. Again, you shall no longer be called 'slave or maid.'" ”

The girl's expression was slightly confused, she smiled unnaturally, her gaze lowered, and two lines of tears fell:

"Or are you the best for me, always treating me like my own sister...... I thought I was so stupid in the past, and when I entered the palace that day, I heard the people around me talk about it, saying that there was a female attendant by the side of Lord Leng...... I have done so many things for him, but he has abandoned me, sister, I hate him so much! ”

Gu Yunyao was excited when she heard this, and her wide eyes were shining brightly.

My sister can be considered to have figured it out, and there is nothing better than this change. She held the girl's cold and trembling little hand hard, and comforted her:

"Don't worry, my sister won't let him go. You should have heard that my father was Min Rui, the first prince of the imperial court, who was in charge of Dongqingshuishi, and I am now pregnant with the emperor's child. When Lin'er is born, if I am the prince, I will also be considered to be in the position of power among the concubines in the harem. At that time, I will definitely deal with Leng Qingtang and avenge our sisters. ”

Just when Gu Yunyao swore to tell the girl, behind her, Zhao stood quietly with his hands down, staring at the humble girl opposite Gu Yunyao with clear eyes, frowning, as if hesitating.

The breeze blew, and Gu Yunyao saw that there was a trace of broken hair on her sister's smooth forehead, so she reached out to smooth her and clasped it behind her ear, and asked with a light smile and a little sadness:

"Tell me, where have you been in the past two years? Dongchang used to look for you everywhere, but there was no news. Who is so bold as to snatch you from Xichang? ”

The girl sighed and poured out her eyes:

"That year, in order to change the antidote for Lord Leng, I went to Minglan Mansion alone. If the head and the guards failed to save me, Minglan was angry, and he wanted to send me to the palace to fend for myself. The person who destroyed his carriage on the way was a disciple of Wandaotang, and only because a few rudders were destroyed by the imperial court, he entered the capital to lurk and cause chaos. I was taken to Xiyi by their people for a year, and I was appreciated by my cooking skills. Later, he had a thought, so I drugged him and made him unconscious and escaped.

In order to see my sister and see Lord Leng again, I went through hardships all the way, and I saved up money by doing some short-term work in wine shops along the way, and finally returned to Dayi from Xiyi.

I was blocked out of the city before the plague in the capital before January, and I didn't want the epidemic to pass before I entered Beijing, so I was caught by the West Factory and sent to the palace again to suffer. ”

After Tu Duxue finished speaking, she was moved to tears by the lies she had made up, so she simply covered her face with her hands and cried again.
