In the Allure Tower outside the palace of the king, Deng Tong was leisurely enjoying the singing and dancing, hugging left and right in his arms, and a beauty on one side, it was a high-spirited scene. Since he returned to Daiguo, his daily life has been no different from that in Chang'an. His task was to take care of the tunnels and weapons in Chang'an, and he should have gone back early, but he just wanted to wait.

While eating the wine and food in front of him, Deng Tong recalled the scene when he met Yifang for the first time in the Zuichun Building in Chang'an. The encounter at that time was not good, but Deng Tong had nothing to do, and when he saw a beautiful girl breaking into the Nanfeng Pavilion, he wanted to tease her. Who knew that she was teasing, and she was inadvertently teased and carried her directly into the room. It's a pity that she didn't get her wish, and sure enough, a girl like her will always be rescued when she is in trouble.

"Grandma? What are you thinking? One of the girls who was in Deng Tong's arms shook his arm and asked in a flattering voice.

Deng Tong thought that when he first met, Yifang also called him Grandma Gongzi, such a serious tone was much better than the charming voice now.

"I'm thinking about someone." Deng Tong replied truthfully.

The girl pretended to be jealous: "Grandma holds us, but what she thinks about is someone else, who is so lucky?" Man or woman? ”

"Women, of course."

"What can make Grandma so worried must be an unusual girl, right?" Another girl who was hugged by Deng Tong asked.

Deng Tong smiled with fond memories: "She's a smart woman, but sometimes she's stupid. ”

"Isn't Grandma's words inconsistent? How can there be a stupid and smart woman? The two girls were coquettish again, thinking that he was talking nonsense after drinking too much.

"Of course there is, but you haven't seen it." Deng Tong took another sip of wine, pointed at them and smiled, "It's lonely!" ”

"Grandma loves to laugh." The two girls accompanied him while drinking and laughing, and the house was lively and lively, and the singing and dancing were constant.

But after a while, there was an untimely knock on the door from outside, and the sound was very intense, as if something big had happened.

"Stop." As soon as Deng Tong gave the order, the singing and dancing stopped abruptly, and he shouted outside, "Come in." ”

The girls around him all stepped aside with interest, seeing that this situation naturally had something serious to discuss. Deng Tong only waved his hand, and a person who looked like a secret guard came in, and he leaned into Deng Tong's ear: "There is someone in the palace." ”

"Was it our eyeliner or was it sent by Liu Heng?"

"Eyeliner, saying that there is something important to report, it is something that you specially explained last time, master."

Deng Tong frowned: "Something to do with Su Meiren?" ”

The guard nodded, and Deng Tong hurriedly asked him to call the man in. At the same time, he said to the girls, "Come here today, and go back first!" ”

Seeing Deng Tong's serious expression, they didn't dare to stay too long, and left one after another according to his wishes. Then, a man with a black cloak walked in.

"What do you have to report?" Deng Tong had asked him to pay close attention to Yifang's situation, and if there was anything unusual, he would report it in time.

"Master, Su Meiren has fallen out of favor recently." That's all the man said.

"Oh? Disfavor? Deng Tong's peach blossom eyes squinted slightly, and he seemed to be a little interested, so he quipped casually, "Didn't Liu Heng really listen to my words?" Want to give her back to me? ”

The man shook his head: "Master, Su Meiren's life has been very difficult recently, and even the servants in the palace can bully her at will, not to mention those concubines who are rightfully favored." ”

"What?!" Deng Tong was taken aback by these words, in such a short period of time, would Yifang definitely end up in such a situation?

He took a sip of tea and slowed down a little before continuing to ask, "What about the acting king?" Does he know about it? ”

"The acting king always humiliated Su Mei with other concubines, but the strange thing is that he did not deprive Su Mei of his position and title."

"What you said is true?" Deng Tong was furious.

"It's true, I heard that the new Madame Jade has been targeting Su Mei and repeatedly making things difficult for her, but the acting king not only doesn't care, but also stands by Madame Jade every time. I heard that there are many palace people who have received the favor of Su Mei who can't look at it, and want to unite to help Su Mei redress their grievances! ”

"She, how is Su Mei now?"

"I heard that I was struggling and was seriously injured several times, but fortunately, I was able to treat him every time."

"She's seriously injured?!" When Deng Tong heard this, he couldn't sit down anymore, he waved his hand and sent the man away, and called out the secret guard from before, "Prepare for me, I want to enter the palace, now, immediately." ”

"Does the master want to go openly or secretly?"

Deng Tong thought for a moment: "Go secretly." ”

It was already late at night, few people passed by on the lively streets during the day, and the night breeze was slow, hitting Deng Tong's fast horse galloping face. He was so anxious that he rode his horse faster and faster. He had been to the palace countless times, both openly and secretly, but he had never been so anxious.

From the west side, go around and through the small garden, and gradually arrive at the Guangyang Hall. At this time, there is still a lamp in the Guangyang Palace, which is very conspicuous among many halls. Deng Tong followed that little light, crossed the high palace wall, and landed in the courtyard of Guangyang Palace.

Yifang came back from the Tongfu Temple today, and people have been sullen. Now they are in a situation where no doctor can be invited, and the burns on their hands can only be dealt with by themselves. Teng Ling was in tears as she drugged Yifang, the wound on the back of her hand had turned into a hideous piece, so it seemed that it would leave a scar.

"Beauty. It's all slaves and maids who are not good, if it weren't for the slaves and maids who were quick to speak, the beauty would not have been hurt like this. Tengling's tears kept falling, Yi Fang squeezed out a smile and wiped the tears on her face with her other hand.

"It's okay, it's just a slight burn, it's not a big deal."

"But this wound will definitely leave a scar."

"Then leave scars, now we can think of living in the palace, with these scars, there will be less possibility of regaining favor, and it can also reassure those concubines who regard us as a thorn in their eyes, maybe they won't embarrass us too much." Yi Fang smiled reluctantly.

"That'...... Sister Zili? Teng Ling was really worried that Zili hadn't seen anyone for two days.

"Zili's disappearance must have something to do with Mrs. Yu, since it can't be clear, let's investigate it secretly." When Yifang said this, he suddenly heard a noise outside, and it seemed that someone was outside the door.

She hurriedly made a silent gesture to Teng Ling, quietly moved to the door, and listened intently for a while before slamming the door open. A gust of wind blew in his face, but there was no one outside. Yifang breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that he was too sensitive, so Deng Tong rushed in from outside the door and closed the door with his hand.

Teng Ling suddenly saw a man appear here, and he was terrified, and he only thought about protecting the safety of Yifang. But before she could stand in front of her, Yifang suddenly smiled at the man, and Teng Ling froze in place.

"I heard that you are not doing well these days?" Deng Tong's gaze fell on the back of Yifang's scalded hand, and the distress in his eyes was clearly visible.

Yifang felt his gaze, and quickly hid his hand back, barely smiling: "It's nothing bad, it's much cleaner than before." ”

"I'll go find Liu Heng." The anger in Deng Tong's eyes couldn't be suppressed, and the girl he held on the tip of his heart couldn't allow others to trample on it like this.

"Don't go." Yifang hurriedly grabbed Deng Tong's sleeve, "I'll ...... with him." Fate is over, and the women in the palace are short-lived, so just let it be. ”

"Then you come with me, and I will take you out of here and go to live a free life outside the palace." Deng Tong grabbed Yifang's hand without any scruples.

Yi Fang quietly withdrew his hand: "Deng Tong, I can only do this now, but you still have a bright future, don't cut yourself off for me." ”

Teng Ling saw that the two were old acquaintances, so she also relaxed a little, leaving them room to talk, and she herself went to guard the door. Although Yifang has fallen out of favor now, if a man is seen in the palace, it will definitely cause an uproar.

I have to say that Tengling's intuition is not wrong. Only after a while, on the palace road outside the Guangyang Palace, a little starlight lit up, and at the same time, Liu Heng and Mrs. Yu with a successful face rushed over here.

"Why is the king here? Slaves and maids see the king, see the jade lady. Teng Ling was in a hurry to run back, wanting to inform Yifang, but it was too late, so she had to salute loudly, hoping that the two people inside could hear her voice.

"The king has come?" Yifang looked out through the window, and his heart was even more worried. Mrs. Yu brought Liu Heng over at this time, she must have come prepared, if she came to embarrass her, it would be okay, but she couldn't trouble Deng Tong anymore.

"Deng Tong, you quickly find a place to hide, and don't come out for a while, no matter what happens." Yi Fang turned around and urged him. It's too late to go out now, and there are also figures shaking outside the window at the back, which is probably specially arranged by Mrs. Yu, as long as you go out, you will be caught.

"What is there to hide? I was about to ask Liu Heng, why did you do this to you? Deng Tong didn't panic at all, and even sat down at the table with a loud voice.

"Deng Tong!" Seeing that Liu Heng and Mrs. Yu had already entered the palace gate, Yifang almost shouted with pleading.

Deng Tong had never seen her look so anxious, so he could only hide according to her wishes, and Yifang opened the door and went out to greet the visitor.

"See the king, see the king, see the jade lady." At this time, in the Guangyang Palace, most of the palace people had already rested, and because of Liu Heng's arrival, only a few palace maids and eunuchs who were on duty at night came to serve.
