The four eyes are facing each other –

Gu Yunxi could hold up his upper body, his scarlet eyes were stunned, staring at the cold and handsome face in front of him.

A difference in one year, such as a thousand years apart! More than 300 days of lovesickness were screwed in my heart for a while, and it was a torment of a hundred turns.

At that time, he was separated and dying in bed with severe poison; Seeing him at this moment, his complexion was very peaceful, his face was vaguely the same, his face had not changed much, he was still picturesque, his posture was straight, and he was as noble and alienated as a god who had come to the world.

Really, did we meet?

Gu Yunxi looked at it with a sad face, almost looking at the person in front of him. Suddenly, I remembered the scenes from the past.

The cold fragrance lingering in her nose finally made her sure that in the picture of memories, the handsome man who combed her hair and added makeup, carried her to walk in the snow, gently hugged her to sleep with her, knotted the red rope on her wrist with his own hands, and his eyes were as bright as the stars, are really in front of him now!

Emotions collapsed abruptly, and tears burst uncontrollably. Gu Yunxi got carried away, his bloody little hand stretched out uncontrollably, and he sobbed tremblingly:

"Overseer...... Lord ...... Cold"

The poignant voice made Leng Qingtang's heart tremble slightly, and his eyes were empty for a moment.

Liu Bingbi lowered his eyes and looked at the bloody man sobbing on the ground, and sneered:

"Hey! In the end, we are powerful. A person who was quite silent just now saw you, and he was so frightened that he cried first! ”

Leng Qingtang was inexplicably upset, and slowly walked in front of Gu Yunxi.

Just now, the moment the two pairs of eyes met, he saw that her scattered eyes instantly blaze.

The brightness, as if an expression of perseverance and tenacity, actually brought Leng Qingtang a strong sense of long-term absence.

Suddenly, a trace of indescribable pain flashed in his deep eyes.

His brow furrowed, and he stared in amazement at the scarred girl on the ground, crouching down with a ghostly spirit, his inquiring gaze close to the girl's tearful eyes.

The panicked sound coming from outside made Leng Qingtang suddenly come back to his senses.

"Overseer, Xu Niangniang of Chuxiu Palace has brought someone to the celebrant supervisor."

The sky was spinning for a while, Gu Yunxi fell to the ground, unconscious.

……

Leng Qingtang led the crowd to the main hall of the celebrant supervisor, and saw Xu Yuanjiao, the master of Chuxiu Palace, sitting on a sandalwood carved high chair, with a gorgeous and graceful appearance, and a porcelain white teacup with red Mei Ruixue in his hand.

Curling smoke rose from the cup, and the aroma of tea overflowed, depicting Concubine Xu's light and snowy appearance.

Leng Qingtang was dressed uprightly and bowed upwards:

"Weichen has seen Concubine Xu. I didn't know that Niangniang Yuren was coming to the celebrant supervisor, and the minister did not have time to greet her, hoping that Niangniang would forgive her sins. ”

Concubine Xu's eyes were not raised, her eyelashes were thick and low, and she was enjoying fragrant tea by herself.

Sakura's lips opened lightly, and the soft and steady sound pierced through the shallow smoke, making people unable to discern emotions:

"Lord Leng is an important minister in the court, and he has always worked hard and won the heart of a dragon. People like Bengong who are not tied to chickens can not solve problems for the emperor, and they have no merit in the country, so they naturally can't get into the eyes of some people. ”

Leng Qingtang quickly lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, and a group of eunuchs and eunuchs behind him followed and bowed.

When he bowed his head, Leng Qingtang quietly raised one side of his eyebrows, and his expression was not distempered:

"Niangniang's words are going to kill Weichen? No matter what the mother commands, the minister is willing to look forward to the horse's head and the liver and brain. ”

Concubine Xu glanced at her and snorted coldly:

"How can this palace be able to dare to be the overseer of the church? You hold the East Factory, and you are the first master of ceremonies, which can be described as a monopoly on life and death. I'm afraid that this palace has no intention of dealing with the overseer, and the overseer will attack this palace first! ”

Leng Qingtang hurriedly kowtowed:

"Weichen doesn't have this intention, please Niangniang Mingjian."

Concubine Xu put down the teacup, Yurong tightened her banner, and the beautiful eyes that looked directly at Leng Qingtang were full of anger, and her hatred sank:

"Your name is Hongu Mingjian? Since your celebrant went to Chuxiu Palace to get people in front, the palace personally came to ask at this time, is there still a palace in the eyes of the overseer?! ”

Leng Qingtang didn't panic and arched his hand upward. Knowing Xu Yuanjiao's intentions, he must not turn around between his openings:

"Niangniang didn't know, because it was the night of July 7, when the palace maid Tu Duxue of Chuxiu Palace returned to the palace. For the sake of prudence, the celebrant brought this person for interrogation. When the Niangniang was not in the Chuxiu Palace, she did not pass the Niangniang in time. ”

Concubine Xu's complexion moved slightly, and her five fingers lightly twisted the wide sleeves of the brocade dress with gold thread rolling, and her soft eyes were quenched with the determination that was bound to be won:

"Tu Duxue is from Chuxiu Palace, and her offense should be investigated by this palace first. If he asks the emperor and the queen about it, the palace will be able to explain.

Before coming to the celebrant office, the palace had personally read the records of the time when Tu Duxue entered and exited the Shenwu Gate on the night of July 7, and that page alone was not enough evidence to prove that she had any connection with the theft of the palace. ”

Liu Bingbi knelt on the ground with his hands together, a pair of loose eyelids drooped, and he was unwilling to press the slightest force in his eyes.

As soon as Concubine Xu's words fell, he hurriedly replied:

"Niangniang didn't know, the celebrant was determined to take people, and she also got a certificate first. Some palace people once came forward to report that after Tu Duxue entered the palace from Shenwu Gate that night, he did not immediately rush back to Chuxiu Palace. ”

Concubine Xu smiled indifferently after hearing this:

"This palace came this time, and brought the 'human witness' in the mouth of Gonggong Liu. It just so happens that this palace is very idle today, so I will ask her again with you. ”

With that, he waved his hand to the attendant behind him.

The chamberlain turned around and walked out of the main hall, and soon brought in a palace e, which was Cui Qiao of Chuxiu Palace.

Cui Qiao knew that disaster was coming, and as soon as she came in, she knelt in front of Concubine Xu, her expression was panicked and messy, and she didn't dare to raise her head.

Concubine Xu's delicate face suddenly rose, and the dark light in her clear eyes shot straight at the trembling palace maid at her feet, and her calm words shook up with deep anger:

"Cui Qiao, this palace asks you, where have you been on the night of July 7, when did you go back to Chuxiu Palace, and what did you do after that?"

Cui Qiao lowered her head, her shoulders moved, and she stammered:

"Back to Niangniang, slave maid, slave maid went out of the palace that night, went to the night market with Yunmei, and returned to Chuxiu Palace before half an hour, waiting for Niangniang to bathe."

Concubine Xu nodded slowly, her magnificent lips twitched, and her smile was cold and shallow:

"Indeed, you were the one who served the palace that night. And you are not a newcomer who has just entered the palace, you should know the habit of bathing in the palace, and it will take an hour at least.

That night, the main palace was settled in the middle of the year, which means that after you have served the main palace to take a bath, the earliest time you can return to the ear room to sleep should be at the end of the hour......"

After a pause, Concubine Xu lowered her eyes suddenly, and looked at Cui Qiao with confidence.

Cui Qiao didn't know Niangniang's intentions, bit her lip hard, and echoed without thinking:

"Yes, yes, the slave and maid go back to their rooms to rest, and it is indeed at the end of the hour."

Concubine Xu proudly hooked her red lips:

"When you got back to your room, you saw that Twilight was in the room?"

"Yes!"

Cui Qiao was determined, and nodded again.

"Smack" –

Concubine Xu struck the case violently, looking angry:

"Bold minion! Before the end of the day, you were serving the main palace in the clean room, and no one was in the ear room, how did you see with your own eyes that Twilight Snow was not in the room at that time? And how did you find out that Twilight Snow returned to the palace at the end of the day?! ”

Cui Qiao's ten fingers are clasped tightly, and he kowtows like pounding garlic:

"Mother forgives, mother forgives. It's just that when the slave returned to the ear room at the end of the hour, she bumped into Twilight Xue sitting on the edge of the bed with a different complexion, not to mention the dirt, and there were blood stains on her skirt, so she must have just returned.

After the slave maid went to the celebrant to expose it, she was also afraid that the newcomers who entered the palace would misbehave and affect the reputation of our Chuxiu Palace! ”

Concubine Xu snorted, and her angry eyes turned to the side:

"Good minion! Are you for Chuxiu Palace, or for the five taels of the celebrant and eunuch's bounty, really don't count it in the palace? For the reputation of Chuxiu Palace? Hum! Do you know that Chuxiu Palace's reputation has been corrupted by your stupid minion—"

Rolled his eyes and looked at Leng Qingtang again:

"Lord Leng Duke, you must have heard clearly. This did not witness when Tu Duxue returned to Chuxiu Palace, and her testimony cannot be counted. ”

Leng Qingtang's face was gloomy, and he bowed his head unhurriedly:

"Wechen is bold, there is still something unclear at the moment. Even if this Cui Qiao girl could not confirm the specific time when Tu Duxue returned to the palace, she still saw with her own eyes that her clothes were unclean at that time.

Rong Weichen verified what happened to Tu Duxue's mud and dirt, and there was no difference, and the minister immediately released him. ”

Concubine Xu squinted her eyes and smiled calmly:

"Since the Lord Governor asked about this, this palace is the one who knows.

After that night, the wind became stronger, and the palace was afraid of damaging the impatiens in the courtyard, so he ordered Duxue to move the flowers into the flower room.

Unexpectedly, she was unsteady on her hands and feet, and she broke the flower pot when she wrestled, and she should have soiled herself while cleaning the flower mud. As for the blood stains on her body, the girl's family ...... I think you guys know it too, right? ”

Leng Qingtang's expression froze, and he turned his face and ordered his subordinates:

"Let go!"

On the top of the moon, on the side of the palace road, Leng Qingtang watched the mighty honor guard of Chuxiu Palace disappear at the corner of the red wall.

The bright eyes flowed in the night, and the faint became more and more profound. The eyebrows were dense, and the feelings in his heart were lightly locked.

The encounter in my mind went back to the scene of the violent room.

Then, the inexplicable emotions in my heart surged again, what is the feeling of pulling and pulling and being close and detached?

That face, that facial features are clearly not the person in memory, why is her voice, her eyes, and even the way she looks when she cries......
