Chapter 196: Hairpin Phoenix

The endless story between Ying Hou, Xiao Yi and Jinshang dates back to nineteen years ago, when there was not even Xiao Qiyu, and Xiao Qiyu didn't know much about the peachy news, but he heard about it, holding Chunli's plump white arm, and asked: "What?" What does she have to say? ”

"Don't be nervous, she's just asking King Xian to be obedient."

"Oh, you're ...... This king is not at ease, let's go together. Xiao Qiyu got up and looked at King Xian, who was eating alone, and he didn't know whether the food that Zhongjing entertained him was unpalatable or afraid of poisoning, or whether it was because he missed his hometown or the rest, and his eating movements were slow and heavy, as if every bite was a red crane.

Chunli smiled, but it was sad and sad, in fact, then again, whether it was the prince, Xiao Ziyan or the rest, what could they do? As long as it is a person from the emperor's family, their lives are so miserable, there are countless grievances and hatreds between themselves and their own people, and they and the outside world are so-for-tat.

They are precarious, because of their unattainable status.

They are lonely, they are cold in high places, and they don't have a friend they want to talk to.

They have money, but they can't buy sincerity, they can't buy friends, and even many of the prince's wives are spies planted by the emperor, Rao is these people are still living awkwardly together, and Ji Chunli also feels pitiful for them.

At this moment, the opportunity seems to have arrived, Chunli got up and slowly approached Xiao Yi, as Ying Hou said, the emperor went to take medicine and changed clothes, in fact, according to Ji Chunli's plan, the emperor can retire today.

But Emperor Jiading, his old man, knows if he will come over suddenly on a whim, maybe Chunli can only wait secretly, and find that the emperor does not seem to have come, and she approached the prince.

Xiao Yi was obviously thinking about something, his quietness at the moment was in stark contrast to the surrounding disturbance and noise, at this moment, Xiao Yi didn't need to disguise, but Xiao Yi looked very pitiful when he took off his disguise.

His whole person seemed to be out of place with everything in the imperial capital, as if there was a messy farce in front of him, and he was a lonely and sober bystander.

Chunli's footsteps disturbed him, and Xiao Yi looked back, a little surprised.

"Oh, it's the princess?"

"Uncle Wang, Chunli came to pour wine, everyone coaxed you to toast, Erchen has only found an opportunity now, Uncle Wang has worked hard all the way." Chunli poured a glass of wine.

"Hey, you're pregnant, how can you eat wine, and sour plum wine is not good, you use tea instead of bar." It's Xiao Yi who made a fuss, Chunli has a very shallow understanding of Xiao Yi, in fact, it's nothing more than judging from his appearance.

Chunli pushed from her appearance to her speech and demeanor, and found that Xiao Yi was a gentleman with dignity, and she was completely incompatible with the vicious character in the legend.

Otherwise, Xiao Yat is too capable of performing and has covered his true face, or Xiao Yat is not afraid of exposing himself at all.

Otherwise...... Chunli thought blankly, could it be that Xiao Yi is really a good person? Could it be that Xiao Yat has never taken the initiative to disturb the imperial capital over the years, but is he completely living a life of peace?

"I see, thank you Uncle Wang." Chunli smiled gratefully, a man who seemed to be five big and three thick was as careful as dust, which was probably not as good as Xiao Qiyu.

Chunli glanced at Xiao Yi, she rolled her eyes, "Uncle Wang, you seem to be looking for someone." ”

are all smart people, why bother to go around the corner, Chunli hit the nail on the head, this sentence goes straight to the point, Xiao Yi's expression that is not very good at disguise looks a little out of control and a little embarrassed.

"You—You see that? Ji Chunli, let me ask you, have you seen the queen? I've been looking for her since I entered Beijing, but I haven't seen her, I heard - I heard that she had a little bit of a big wave, but now it's all over? "It stands to reason that there is no need for a prince to care so much about Zhongjing's affairs.

Shouldn't he Xiao Yi need to care more about his own life?

Chunli saw Xiao Yi like this, and said busily: "That matter is nothing to the queen mother, it has already passed, and it is not a secret, just now Chunli not only saw the queen mother, but also brought the mother's token over." Chunli spoke very quickly, it was a secret thing, and it would not be good once it was seen, so she was afraid that Xiao Yi would not believe it, so she hurriedly took out a golden step and stuffed it from under the table to the prince.

On the other side, Gao Yunzhi seemed to be staring at them, Xiao Qiyu had already approached him, and landed a hard palm on Gao Yunzhi's shoulder, "What is Grandpa Gao looking at?" ”

Gao Yunzhi, who was slapped with a palm, immediately took his gaze back, and out of the corner of Chunli's eyes, he saw Xiao Qiyu chatting with Gao Yunzhi, this is him fighting for precious time, Chunli suddenly helped a little, and said busily: "Niangniang wants you to be obedient." ”

"Obedient? Listen to what? ”

"Listen to your royal brother, the emperor." Chunli was sure that she had expressed herself completely and unreservedly, and understood what the queen meant.

"Hmm," Xiao Yi pondered for a moment and asked, "Nothing else?" ”

Chunli nodded, got up and said in a low voice: "It's not convenient for me to talk to the prince more, the queen mother just said that, even I was confused, she said that you will understand." Chunli prepared to stay away from Xiao Yi, because there were already malicious eyes staring at her.

Chunli got up, but Xiao Yi shook the golden step and looked at it, it was a hairpin head phoenix, the shape of the phoenix was lifelike, there were tassels made of gold behind the golden hairpin, one by one is very distinct, the golden needle will follow the actions of people and flicker, look at the golden light from afar, and look dazzling and brilliant up close.

Chunli signaled Xiao Yi not to do this, and Xiao Yi threw the phoenix in his sleeve.

Returning to Xiao Qiyu's side, Chunli said, "What about the old fox staring at me?" ”

"It's okay anymore, he told me just now that the emperor won't appear again tonight." This is the plan discussed by Chunli and Xiao Qiyu, not only will the emperor not appear today, but he will never appear again after tomorrow.

If nothing else, the next time the emperor meets Xiao Yat will be the time when he dies, and Xiao Yat will be finished at that time.

Xiao Yi was ready to meet everything, but he couldn't think of what else the emperor had arranged.

Since the emperor will not come again, Chunli went to Xiao Yi's side to say goodbye, and everyone dispersed one after another, those civil and military officials felt the most strange, they thought that the Son of Heaven would give Xiao Yi a dismissal, or would take the opportunity to release the military power with a glass of wine today, but surprisingly, the emperor not only did not do this, but seemed to respect Xiao Yi very much.

He opened his mouth and closed his mouth to say a lot of words to thank Xiao Yi, and in the eyes of everyone, Xiao Yi did work hard. The emperor rewarded Xiao Yi with something, but it was only a reward.

Not to mention the bystanders, even the person concerned, Xiao Yat, felt strange.

Everyone gradually left, and as soon as they left, Gao Yunzhi brought a group of guards and eunuchs to greet Xiao Yi and took Xiao Yi to Shangyang Palace.

This Shangyang Palace is near the Baohe Palace, it is a very quiet place, there are not many maids waiting in it, and the emperor also intimately prepared dancers and geisha for Xiao Yi, tonight Xiao Yi can do whatever he wants, this is what Gao Yunzhi told him.

But Xiao Yi is a clean and self-righteous person, and he just said "grateful" to the emperor's arrangement, and the rest is no big deal.

Xiao Yat does not touch these women who are in a pitiful situation like himself.

On the other side, Chunli and Xiao Qiyu had walked out of the Water Green Nanxun Hall side by side, Chunli was about to sit on the chariot or shoulder to shoulder, but Xiao Qiyu pointed to the white moonlight outside.

"The moonlight is good tonight, I'll take a walk with you, first, to help digestion, and second, Chunli, you are also comfortable with exercising and having children in the future." Ji Chunli smiled and nodded immediately.

The two walked forward, Xiao Qiyu held the lantern by himself, and retreated the rest of the people, and everyone followed in the distance, Xiao Qiyu said, "You gave him that thing." ”

"Yes."

"What did the prince say?" Xiao Qiyu asked.

"Say?" Chunli shook her head, "The prince was a little surprised, a little unbelievable, but he didn't say anything, I observe that the prince is not a bad person, what do you think?" Xiao Qiyu is different from Chunli, Xiao Qiyu touched his nose, "I know people and faces, I don't know my heart, he was very good with his mother back then, and the queen mother was probably afraid that he would die unexpectedly, what do you think?" ”

"It's like that." Ji Chunli nodded, seeing that she was about to arrive at Fengkun Palace, Chunli said: "Niangniang just asked me to go to Fengkun Palace, just now she wanted to talk and stopped, and now I will go inside." ”

"Come back early." Xiao Qiyu admonished.
