Su Tong returned to Queen Qian.

"What's the mess out there?" Queen Qian asked.

"The newly transferred palace maid is unstable and has collided with Lord Leng, and the slave has just punished her for slapping her mouth, and the matter is over."

Su Tong replied, and then talked to Queen Qian about Wan Yuyao of Yongning Palace:

"Niangniang, since the construction of the West Factory, Lord Leng has become much more estranged from the one in Yongning Palace."

Queen Qian has been ill for a long time, even if she temporarily releases Fengquan, her mind is not dull. She knew from beginning to end that it was Wan Yuyao of Yongning Palace who pushed Emperor Jingxiao to establish the West Factory, and put Ming Lan, the great eunuch in her palace, to the position of Governor of the West Factory.

However, Wan Yuyao overestimated Ming Lan's eunuch talent, and she would lose Leng Qingtang's powerful help!

Su Tong put his hands in his sleeves, frowning and oozing a little worried:

"Niangniang, how much can we trust the cold overlord of the East Factory? At the beginning, he was very close to Yongning Palace! ”

Queen Qian smiled leisurely and was confident:

"It doesn't matter if he's trustworthy or not, and Bengu doesn't care who he's been with before, and most importantly, he's with his Dongchang...... He has always served the court of Dayi.

At present, if this palace wants to take back the phoenix power from Wan Yuyao, it must form an alliance with Leng Qingtang. And he also understands that if he wants to balance with the West Factory, he needs the power of Kunning Palace to back him up. ”

The voice paused, Queen Qian looked straight ahead, and said conclusively:

"This palace is coming back this time, not only to re-dominate the harem, but also to completely overthrow the Wan clan with the help of Dongchang!"

——

At that time, Leng Qingtang's chariots and horses stepped out of the capital on the snow on the road and went straight south to Jiang'an. The entourage was Ai Qing, the head of the East Factory, Lu Rong, the head of the second block, Zhao Wouji, the head of the third block, and hundreds of subordinate guards.

In accordance with the instructions of the governor, Cheng Wanli, the head of Xing Qianhu, stayed in the East Factory and supervised the official affairs on behalf of the governor.

It was already afternoon when the Admiralty learned that the Governor had left Beijing. Gu Yunxi seemed to have been hit on the head.

He actually left without saying a word? And just like that, suddenly gone......

didn't say hello to the house beforehand, leaving her alone in the capital, leaving her to fend for herself?

Gu Yunxi sat in the room and was so sad that he didn't even have the strength to cry. There seems to be a turbid breath in the chest, and I can't go up or down.

At this moment, she really wanted him to come back, scold her hard, or slap her twice, instead of this silent cold abuse. That kind of waiting for nothing is undoubtedly the most painful punishment for her.

Outside the house, Qing'er begged Gu Yunxi to open the door, and scolded Xiao Xiaoshen beside her in a low voice.

She blamed Xiao Xiaoshen for being too real, she usually looked at the monkey spirit, but at the critical moment, she didn't know how to lie and comfort people. Why can't you say more, the overseer sent someone to speak on his behalf before he set off, asking Yunxi to take care of himself and wait for him to come back?

Xiao Xiaoshen regretted but was embarrassed. He told Qing'er that he could lie to anyone, but this method didn't work against Yunxi, as long as he lied to her, he would blush.

The two of them were tired of noisy outside the door, and when they saw that the people in the house were determined not to open the door, they had to retreat.

As soon as it was quiet outside, the young man who had seen his injuries came out of the inner room wearing a cold Qingtang robe, and complained in a deep voice:

"The ears are clean, and those two can really quarrel—"

In a blink of an eye, I saw Gu Yunxi sitting upright at the table, looking unrelenting, and sneering dissatisfiedly:

"Who are you, the great eunuch, and are you doing this for him? It's just going out of Beijing for disaster relief, not going to the battlefield to die! ”

Gu Yunxi's expression was indifferent, like a statue without emotion, ignoring the young man......

Outside the window, it was another night of cold wind and heavy snow.

On the bed, Gu Yunxi got up without saying a word and walked out of the courtyard with the lantern.

As it was yesterday, she gave up her daily three meals to the son in the back room, and at this hour she was so hungry that her bones were soft and she was sweating profusely.

Gu Yunxi went straight to the kitchen against the cold wind and found a few snacks and put them in the bamboo basket.

The feeling of uneasiness in her internal organs was indescribable, and the feeling of unhappiness was made even stronger by the overseer's refusal, and she was anxious to find a shortcut to relieve her boredom.

Walking into the wine cellar, Gu Yunxi hugged another jar of wine and brought it back to the house along with the basket of snacks.

When the lid was lifted, the smell of wine made the young man jump up from the floor in the back room and take a few steps to the table.

"Wow! Luhua white? You have such a good wine in your house?! ”

He exclaimed in surprise, staring at the small oval-bellied jar on the table.

Gu Yunxi ignored him, picked up the teacup on the table, and poured a cup of wine into it.

Sullenly picked up the teacup, frowned and looked at the clear and transparent liquid inside, Gu Yunxi closed his eyes and raised his head, and swallowed the contents of the cup into his stomach.

This wine is not spicy, but sweet.

However, Gu Yunxi had been on an empty stomach from morning to night, and after pouring a glass of wine, he suddenly felt that the five internal scorching heat was abnormal, like boiling hot oil boiling violently in a pot, and it was unbearable.

The young man sat down beside her, with a little smile between his eyebrows, and watched curiously as Gu Yunxi swallowed a glass of wine into his stomach, and then his facial features were twisted into a ball on his little face, and he opened his mouth wide and panted silently.

"Hey, are you alright?"

The more the young man looked at it, the more he realized that something was wrong, and reached out to pat her on the back gently, and complained in his mouth:

"If you can't drink, don't drink ......"

"Go away! Don't touch me—" Gu Yunxi was irritable, and pushed his arm hard, blocking Gongzi's arm.

She turned her head stiffly, her scarlet eyes glistening with water. After a wine burp, she roared in a muffled voice: "I warn you, stay away from me!" ”

"Cut!" The young man sneered, shook his head and said, "It's really a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and the kindness is not rewarded!" ”

So he stopped talking, silently watched her drink one cup of stuffy wine after another, and said secretly in his heart:

This little girl is so interesting, she doesn't sleep in the middle of the night, just to hurt the eunuch?

The young man picked up a teacup and snatched the wine jar in Gu Yunxi's hand.

"What are you doing—" she growled angrily.

"If you want to drink, I'll accompany you!"

As he spoke, he poured wine for his teacup and raised his glass to her: "Come, this son will do it first as a respect." ”

Gu Yunxi didn't think too much about it, he looked up and took a sip, then the cup was aimed at her, showing her the empty cup, and then he picked up his teacup and drank the wine inside.

The young man smiled slightly, raised the wine jar, and then poured a full glass of Gu Yunxi and himself, and then raised a glass to her:

"Little girl, no matter what kind of heart you have, don't think too much, get drunk!"

Gu Yunxi was a little drunk at the moment, and the cherry blossoms~ lazily curled her lips, hooking up a simple smile.

"!" The voice was muddy, she raised her glass staggeringly, and slammed into the overlapping teacup image in front of her field of vision, and suddenly half a glass of wine poured out.

The young man did not stop her, and let her continue to drink, until after two more glasses of wine, she became dizzy and fell on the table.

"Hey! You're really drinking too much?! ”

The young man pulled the chair closer and reached for her. Thinking that her body was as soft as a boneless noodle, her upper body had just left the table, and then she fell into his arms.

"Wow", Gu Yunxi cried loudly on the young man's chest.

"My little aunt and grandmother, what are you crying in the middle of the night, beware of waking up the people in the West Chamber!"

The young man felt funny and helpless, and pushed Gu Yunxi tentatively, but she pierced deeper and deeper into his arms, and her cheeks couldn't help scratching his clothes.

In the fog, she could smell the familiar cold scent of his body, and thought she was lying in the warm arms of the Overseer. She couldn't help but tug at his placket, for fear that he would run away again.

"Woo...... I'm sorry...... It's my fault......"

She cried in his arms until she collapsed, and cried until her body trembled, and when she had no more strength, she murmured:

"I like you, please stay, don't go-"

The young man's expression suddenly stared, and he looked at the delicate little man in his arms in tears, and then stretched warmly, and his purple eyes were reflected in the swaying candlelight, which was radiant and turned into a spoiled brilliance. The corners of his lips are raised, and the shallow smile is a wisp of silk.

In a drunken state, although the little girl's crying appearance is not elegant, it is the ultimate expression of nature, which makes this young and handsome boy feel infinitely complex and peculiar in his heart.

Stretching his arms around her, the young man hung his head and whispered in her ear:

"Alright, alright, don't be sad. I'm not leaving, I'm in this room, guarding you every step of the way! Little girl, if you cry enough, sleep well, and all your worries will be gone when you wake up......"

Gu Yunxi fell into the arms of the young man and made trouble for another moment, and finally he was extremely tired, and the noise gradually became quieter, turning into a low sob.

The young man shook his head helplessly. I had hoped that this beautiful little girl would accompany him to drink a few more glasses, but her alcohol consumption was not flattering.

Holding her in his lap, encircling her with one hand, and pouring himself a cup with the other, the young man continued to drink a few glasses alone.

Looking down at Gu Yunxi, she fell asleep.

After getting drunk, her crystal melon seed face was red and red, and her aggressive color made people reluctant to look sideways. The pink lips were also burning red at this time, plump and seductive, and when the wriggling moved, they exhaled a cloud of hot and dry breath.

The young man's long eyelashes trembled twice, and his eyes were a little intoxicated.

As his head gradually lowered, his lips fell on half of her cheek and pecked lightly.

Gu Yunxi was sleeping in a daze with his eyes closed, his brows moving, and his fingers scratched twice where he was kissed.

The young man smiled softer at this, clasped his fingers on her lower handle, provoked her face, bowed his head again, and kissed the lips that were as red as the petals of a flower.

"Well, the Overseer......"

Gu Yunxi suddenly burst out in a dream, and called shallowly: "Overseer......"

Kiss stopped halfway.

The young man straightened up suddenly, his expression bewildered.
