Chapter Seventy-One: Night Tour

When Zhiying heard this, he thought it was true, and suddenly became enlightened. She thought that Ling Jun was quite perceptive and open-minded, and she was not as good as him.

"Ah, it looks like I'm not here at the right time. Concubine An covered her eyes and pretended.

At that time, Ling Jun and Zhiying clasped hands, the two were snuggling together, intimate, and Concubine An's voice suddenly sounded, startling both of them.

Zhiying hurriedly let go, blushing and said, "Why didn't you report when you came in, and suddenly spoke, it's weird and scary." Ling Jun didn't say it directly, but the expression on his face was almost the same thing.

Concubine An ignored their murderous gaze, and said with a heart: "Why, I caught you with a weak heart." ”

Zhiying retorted: "What are you talking about, we are upright and happy, what's in your way?"

This time it was Concubine An's turn to blush, "Okay, I'll serve you, you really dare to say anything." ”

Zhiying felt inexplicable, the two of them were originally above board, Zhijie had already known, Lingjun had also been to Biyou Mountain, and when the matter here was over, he would go back to Master Ming, everything was done according to etiquette, what was there to twist?

Ling Jun's ears turned red invisibly. He knew that Zhiying had always been frank and had a clear distinction between love and hate, but saying such words as "two feelings are happy" in front of others still made his heart tremble. In fact, he wished that everyone knew that they were a couple, but how could this kind of thing be preached everywhere? Moreover, he was introverted by nature, and he loved him very much, and he only said it to Zhiying alone, and he could never say it to others.

Concubine An hates the appearance of the two of them, you and me, can't you consider the feelings of others? Ling Jun is so keen, he naturally saw Concubine An's unhappiness, pretended to cough twice, and tactfully reminded Zhi Ying to stop, Zhi Ying understood, and changed the topic: "It's rare to be able to rest for a day, why don't you stay in the Lingxi Palace, what are you doing here?"

"Hmph, if you have no conscience, you forget your friends when you have a lover, it's really a heavy color and a light friend. Concubine An pretended to be sad.

Zhiying didn't eat her set, "Okay, just say something." ”

Seeing that this trick didn't work, Concubine An also lost her interest, and said lazily: "I'm so bored in the Lingxi Hall alone, come to you to join in the fun." ”

Hearing her say this, there are indeed a lot of people who remember her here. In addition to her and Ling Jun, there are also Zhijie, He Ling and Li Xin.

"It's just the two of you, and I want to come and sit down, not to mention that you still have fun-loving vixens here. ”

The corners of Zhiying's mouth twitched, that is also a big monster with hundreds of years of Taoism, so that she has become a pet, it seems that He Ling should really show his hand in front of her, and he didn't look down on the fox spirit so much.

Sure enough, as soon as Concubine An's words fell, she heard a charming voice and said: "Who is fun, the old lady's age is more than enough to be your ancestor, and you dare to treat the old lady as a pet?"

Concubine An pursed her lips, "Isn't this praising you, why do you want to scold people?" It's also Concubine An, if it's someone else, you have to fight.

He Ling said indignantly: "That's how you praise people? really a fox doesn't understand anything?"

Concubine An still had to speak, but when Zhiying saw that the situation was not good, she immediately came out to play a round, "Okay, let's not say a word, everyone is friends, don't make trouble." ”

"It's fine if you don't make a fuss, but you have to promise me one thing. Concubine An said.

"What's the matter?"

"Take me out of the palace tonight. ”

Zhiying was a little speechless, and after a long time, he was really idle. But she didn't dare to say this, but said: "That's okay, but you can't come back too late, after all, tomorrow is the chrysanthemum banquet, you must not make a mistake." ”

"That's natural, this banquet also has my heart's work, and I won't let it smash. ”

He Ling on the side was puzzled: "You also have some skills, why do you even have to be taken out of the palace." ”

Concubine An rolled her eyes and said depressedly: "Although I have been in the imperial city for more than ten years, I didn't go out of the gate of the palace a few years ago, and I entered the palace directly in the next few years, and I couldn't go if I wanted to.

He Ling blinked his big seductive eyes and sympathized: "It's really pitiful, you are boring to be a mother." ”

"Not really, or why wouldn't I want to stay here. Concubine An finally found her bosom friend, and said bitterly: "Do you think that being a lady is good to eat and drink? The concubines were harmonious on the surface, but secretly formed gangs, and the struggle was not inferior to that of the previous dynasty. What harem is like a family is to coax His Majesty to be happy, after all, there were many things in the previous dynasty, and returning to the harem is to have a good time, and this is like a mirror in His Majesty's heart. ”

Everyone sighed when they heard it, as soon as they entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and from then on, life and death, honor and disgrace were tied to one person, and naturally they did not dare to be negligent at all. The scenery of the main seats of each palace is infinite on the surface, but the sadness in the secret is not enough for outsiders, so you don't want such a fragile glory.

"Okay, how many times have I said this bit of, and I didn't deliberately take it out to gain sympathy, don't talk about it, let's go quickly. ”

At night, the imperial city was brightly lit, and Zhiying and his party avoided patrols and guards, climbed over the wall and went out of the palace. As soon as she arrived outside the palace, Concubine An was like a bird returning to the forest, singing happily.

"Ah, I'm finally out!" she said excitedly, "I didn't expect to see the world outside the palace again in this life!"

"Be quiet. Zhiying reminded her. She looked around and was slightly relieved to see that no one was paying attention to them. In addition to Zhiying and Concubine An, there were also Ling Jun, He Ling, Li Xin and Nan Ming. Holding festivals does not like to be busy, and there is always a need for someone to stay to deal with emergencies.

The streets are bustling with people, no less than during the day, and the variety of goods is dazzling, making people overwhelmed. Concubine An had never experienced this, and now she couldn't move a single step when she saw it. Zhiying was helpless, so she had to walk forward with He Ling holding her arm left and right.

"For the first time, I knew that there was no temple fair street that could be so lively. Concubine An sighed. Her perception of the street is still stuck in the small town of her childhood. There is a curfew, and only when you go to the temple fair, you are allowed to buy and sell things at night, and when the time is over, every house is closed, and there is not even a shadow of a ghost on the street. Even if I returned to the Imperial City later, everyone had a carriage to travel, and even during the day, they could only sneak a glance out through the curtain, let alone at night. She had a lot of poor schoolwork, and her etiquette was a mess, and her father became more and more restrained about her.

"I'm really unhappy. She thought to herself, she was indeed overexcited. It's not that she didn't see everyone's helpless expressions, it's just that she has really been suppressed for too long. She felt like a fool standing here, looking at nothing and not understanding anything.

"Niangniang, when you leave the palace in the future, I will accompany you out. Nan Ming came to her at some point. The night light shone on him, gilding him with a layer of brightness. He has no noble status, nor outstanding talent, whether it is compared with Ling Jun, Zhijie or Li Xin, it seems too ordinary, but at this time, he looked at Concubine An's eyes, sincere without a trace of falsehood, and people who have never had a heart and lungs can't help but be moved by this kind of gaze.

Concubine An felt that her eyes were hot, and she didn't know what she was doing, at this moment, she just wanted to pounce on him and cry to vent her grievances for so many years. She restrained herself with the last shred of reason, she couldn't make a fool of herself in front of so many people, and she was afraid of frightening this honest little guard. If she scares him away, who will protect her when she leaves the palace in the future? At this moment, she felt that she was still a weak woman who was powerless, and she thought that she had never been strong, and two soft words from others could knock her back to her original form. That won't work, she thought.

Everyone stood fifty paces away in tacit understanding, and they tried to reduce their sense of presence as much as possible, for fear that the two would feel uncomfortable.

It's not easy. Zhiying thought, after tossing for so long, it has finally improved a little, I hope that Nanming can keep the clouds open and see the moon, and I hope that Concubine An can get rid of the shackles of the palace as soon as possible.

"There will be this day. Ling Jun said lightly. Zhiying looked at him and couldn't help but smile, he was always so good and so understanding.

He Ling was too lazy to look at their pediatric ignorance, and had already dragged Li Xin to go shopping, she watched all the way, holding all kinds of gadgets all the way, and had a lot of fun, Li Xin was very cooperative to pay the bill.

Zhiying and Lingjun looked at each other and smiled, only feeling that everyone had their own destiny.

"Oh, no, I'm hungry. He Lingjiao complained, "Let's go eat." ”

It turns out that the fox has a smart nose, she can smell the aroma of food from afar, and she is drooling when she is greedy, such a big beauty drools on the street... The picture is too beautiful to bear to look at.

Everyone came to a restaurant that was said to be very famous, and He Ling couldn't suppress his excitement as soon as he sat down, "Do you remember, after we defeated Tao Yao last time, we also ordered a large table of delicious food, and I still have endless aftertastes." In this way, we took what we had eaten at that time and ordered it again. ”

As soon as she said it, everyone recalled that there was indeed such a thing, but at that time, they were all improvised, and it was delicious, and now that I think about it, I only remember a few sporadic dish names, and it is impossible to order them as they are.

He Ling looked at everyone with disdain, "Forget it, let's do it with me." I only heard her say: "Little second brother, listen up." Braised fish, salted crispy chicken, diced kung pao chicken, salted duck, pickled pepper beef, vegetarian stir-fried three fresh, red dates and yams, radish pork rib soup, green vegetable and tofu soup, as well as pineapple crisp and glutinous rice cake. ”

The poor little second brother didn't know what to say at all, and the rest of the people were the same, they didn't expect that He Ling really remembered, could it be that this is the power of foodies?

"I'm still stunned for what to do, serve the food. He Ling said dissatisfied.

The little second brother finally came back to his senses and said, "Hey, hey, okay!"

Concubine An stretched out her thumb at He Ling, "Admire, I really admire, it's the first time I've seen a foodie like you, you have exerted the power of a foodie to the extreme." ”
