When Su Li arrived at the Queen Mother's dormitory, the door of the palace was closed, and only the palace maid and another eunuch who had just sent clothes were guarding the door, seeing that Su Li came so early, the palace maid was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward and lowered her voice: "The Queen Mother is still taking a lunch break, and no one is allowed to disturb her, why did the girl come over so early?" ”

"The clothes fit tightly, my heart is happy, and I am a little flattered, so I came early and waited for peace of mind."

Su Li lowered her head slightly and replied, her appearance was actually extremely outstanding, she was rarely dressed up a few years ago, her facial features had not yet grown, and her colors were bright and lively, so she gave people a little more childishness.

Today, with light makeup and a well-fitting and elegant dress, just standing here, it is an eye-catching scenery in winter, and speaking softly, it suddenly flows through people's hearts like a clear spring, and it is ironed.

The eunuch guarding the door looked at Su Li curiously, and squeezed his eyebrows with the palace maid, only to think that Su Li was much more beautiful than those concubines in the palace.

Su Li didn't pay attention to the interaction between the two, and stood upright by the door with her hands together, the new clothes were beautiful, but the warmth effect was not as good as the men's clothes that Chu Huai'an had made for her before, fortunately, the sun was good today, and the wind was not as cold as it was a few days ago.

After standing like this for more than half an hour, the door of the dormitory opened from the inside, and an old lady came out of the house, and before she could speak, Su Li had already bowed thoughtfully: "Mama, is the Queen Mother awake?" Su Li came to thank you. ”

The grandmother was an old man in the palace, her eyes were vicious, she was not in a hurry to answer, she looked at Su Li inch by inch, and saw that her back was straight, her appearance was dignified, and she was not thoughtful in any place, and there was a trace of caution in her eyes, but her expression was still serious, as if Su Li owed her a lot of money.

"The Queen Mother has just woken up and needs to be dressed up, so the girl should wait first!"

Mama said with a shelf, her tone was quite disdainful, she was the old man next to the Queen Mother, and at this age, few people in this palace dared to get along with her, so she developed this tricky temperament.

"Yes!"

Su Li obediently answered, and was about to retreat to continue guarding the door, when she heard a lazy whisper from inside: "Come in!" ”

"Yes!"

Su Li should step into the dormitory, the stove in the hall is burning very strong, the window is closed, a little stuffy, there is a one-person high screen in the center of the hall, embroidered with Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, the embroidery is excellent, bypassing the screen, a big bed made of golden silk nanmu comes into view, the bed tent is made of the most luxurious cloud brocade, the clouds are fluttering between the layers, such as falling clouds.

Su Li didn't dare to look around, and quickly stepped forward and knelt down: "Su Li meets the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is a thousand years old!" ”

"Get up!"

A well-maintained hand stretched out from the bed tent, and a verdant jade ring on the ring and index finger was priceless.

Su Li didn't dare to get up, knelt over and held the Queen Mother's hand to let her sit up, and then lowered her head and said seriously: "Su Li has not been able to see the Queen Mother since she was poisoned and entered the palace, and today she got the new clothes rewarded by the Queen Mother. ”

She spoke a little fast, but her words were very clear, and she deliberately had a bit of cowardice, which was particularly pitiful when it fell into people's ears.

The Queen Mother rubbed her temples and reached out to clasp Su Li's chin to make her raise her head and look at her face carefully.

After a long time, the Queen Mother said lightly: "It deserves the four words of picturesque eyebrows." ”

"Empress Dowager Xie praised, Su Li didn't dare to be!"

Su Li bowed down and thanked her, seeing the Queen Mother's kind face, she intuitively felt that she was not here to find fault, and she was relieved in her heart, but she didn't dare to be careless.

"Get up, since you're in, let's wait for the mourners to make up."

When the words fell, Su Li got up.

In the past five years, she has lived in the border for a long time, neglected to dress up, and didn't know what hairstyles have been popular in Kyoto recently, but fortunately, she learned a lot of words to make her grandmother happy with Su Bangyue's ears and eyes, so she praised the queen mother's agelessness and smooth hair maintenance.

People love to listen to flattery, and the Queen Mother is no exception, and after a while, she was coaxed by Su Li to smile, Su Li combed her hair in a bun according to the memories of previous years, she didn't dislike it, and praised Su Li's ingenuity, Su Li laughed with her, and her heart settled down a little.

Finally helped the Queen Mother choose clothes and dress up, Su Li was so tired that she was sweating, and she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but when she saw the Queen Mother, she smiled, walked around the screen and walked to the low couch outside to sit, posing as if she wanted to talk about business.

Su Li's heart sank, and she walked to the Queen Mother and knelt down with great vision.

"Why do you kneel at every turn? Does Hongu look fierce? ”

"The Queen Mother is kind, but the family rules have words, and when you talk to the elders, you should be respectful, and even more so in the face of the Queen Mother!"

Su Li said righteously, and brushed another wave of everyone's girlfriends' favorability, and the Queen Mother's face couldn't help but be a little kind: "You girl is obedient." ”

However, abiding by the rules is abiding by the rules, and the fact that the reputation is ruined cannot be resisted.

The Queen Mother played with the string of Buddha beads in her hand, looked at Su Li faintly, and the old lady before lit incense and stood next to her with a small box of exquisite workmanship.

"This time you suffered for Jinzhi, and walked away in the ghost gate, which can be regarded as a great achievement, before you were sick, you are not allowed to disturb you, this reward will be left for tomorrow's Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, have you thought about what reward?"

Bounty?

After Li Meiren and Manmen's house were raided, Su Li waited for Chu Lingzhao's reward every day to facilitate his actions in Beijing, but he did not expect that this reward would be left at the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet.

You must know that the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet will be attended by hundreds of civil and military officials, and the reward given at this banquet must be unusual.

Can I ask for a gold medal for avoiding death?

This was the first thought that popped into Su Li's mind, and then she vetoed it, since ancient times, the gold medal for avoiding death has only been given to important ministers with great merits, and even Lu Xiao, the protector of the country, did not have a gold medal for avoiding death, how could she get it?

Su Li was entangled in what to reward, the Queen Mother's face over there had gradually become gloomy, she stopped turning the hand of the Buddha beads, slowly rubbed the beads with her thumb, and gave a look to the grandmother, and the mother immediately handed the small box to Su Li: "The girl has made a great contribution, this is the Queen Mother's reward for you." ”

The small box was heavy, presumably containing a lot of previous jewelry, Su Li hurriedly cut off her chaotic thoughts: "Su Li thanks the Empress Dowager for the reward!" ”

"Thank you for not needing, this is what you deserve." This tone is two points more tough than Fang Cai, Su Li looked up suspiciously, and saw that the Queen Mother's calm face was very serious: "Five years ago, your reputation was ruined, you lost your temper, and you have disappeared in the past five years, and now you have come back, although you have made a meritorious service, you must also weigh what the value of your life is, don't open your mouth, say some delusional nonsense, and covet things that you shouldn't covet!" ”

The warning in these words is full of meaning, Su Li is a little confused, she just secretly wants to avoid death gold medal, is it still seen by the Queen Mother?

Xu is confusion on her face is too obvious, the Queen Mother suppressed her temper and explained: "I am a mourning family who grew up, although he is an idle marquis, but the position of the wife must not be ambiguous, not only his mother, but the mourning family will also choose a girl for him who is innocent, talented and beautiful, and has the right family!" ”

Su Li: "......"

Where did you see that I coveted his wife?

Su Li was speechless in her heart, but she didn't show it at all, she hooked her lips and smiled decently: "The Queen Mother can rest assured, Su Li knows that she is not worthy of the Hou Ye, and she definitely does not dare to have such a delusion." ”

Su Li didn't know that Chu Huai'an had tried her best to defend herself in front of the Queen Mother before she fell into a coma, and she didn't know that her current indifference was just a cover for duplicity in the eyes of the Queen Mother.

If she hadn't had delusions to seduce Chu Huai'an, how could she have fascinated Chu Huai'an and contradicted the Queen Mother?

Thinking of Chu Huai'an's angry appearance that day, the Queen Mother was unhappy, and thought that only by never suffering in the future can she feel at ease, and lowered her eyes and said coldly: "Since you have lost your temperament, you can no longer marry someone else with the body of a broken flower and a willow, in order not to shame Shangshufu, you might as well ask Your Majesty at the banquet tomorrow to allow you to go to the meditation nunnery outside the city to practice on your behalf, which can be regarded as protecting your reputation!" ”

“……”

The front foot said that she had made a meritorious service, and the back foot was going to throw her into the nunnery, and she was asked to ask for a reward herself, what kind of reward is this?

If she really asked for such a reward, what is the point of returning to Beijing this time?

Su Li pursed her lips and was silent, the Queen Mother twisted her eyebrows, and her face was full of fierceness: "What, you don't want to?" ”

"Su Li doesn't dare! Su Li just thought that she wanted to be accompanied by the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha for the rest of her life, and she was a little timid and hesitant for a while, and asked the Queen Mother to forgive her guilt, "Su Li bowed down and admitted her mistake, at this time, the Queen Mother still let her ask for herself, so she still has time to think of a way, if she angers the Queen Mother and goes down with a decree, I am afraid that there will be no room for turning back on this matter."

"Cowardly what? It's not to cut off your head, and besides, you dare to leave home for five years as a weak woman, what else is there to be afraid of? ”

"The queen mother's lesson is that Su Li will ask Your Majesty for a reward tomorrow."

With Su Li's assurance, the Queen Mother's brows relaxed, but she was not completely relieved, and warned faintly: "What did you talk about with the mourning family today, it is better to rot in the stomach, otherwise it will ......"

The Queen Mother didn't finish the rest of the words, but the threat was self-evident, in the huge capital, the Queen Mother wanted to kill her, it was as easy as a snap.

Thinking of this, Su Li replied with kindness: "The Queen Mother is kind, today I will reward Su Li for the matter of Xiaoyaohou, Su Li came to thank her, and there is nothing else!" ”

The Queen Mother was very satisfied with Su Li's answer, and waved her hand to retreat.

When the door of the palace was closed, the old lady bowed down to the queen mother and whispered: "This Miss Su San is a rare clever person. ”

The Queen Mother turned the Buddha beads in her hand with a look of disdain: "I don't know how many people have slept with my body, I can only dirty people's eyes, why didn't the Su family forget her sinking pond back then?" ”

The grandmother likes to listen to this kind of thing on weekdays, and immediately said: "The slave maid heard that the Su family planned to sink her into the pond, but it was only to blame that the second lady of the Su family didn't know the severity and secretly let people go in the middle of the night, ruining her good marriage, or did Su Guifei ask for a family affair for the second young lady with the love of sisterhood!" ”

At the mention of Su Bangyue, the Queen Mother's face showed a smile: "The daughter raised by the family, the daughter is different, I heard that she was frightened two days ago, how is it now?" ”

"Your Majesty stayed in her palace for two nights, and finally appeased ......"

The two happily discussed the dragon heir in Su Bangyue's belly, and after Su Li returned to the side hall, she looked at a box of jewels but was a little worried.

Today she promised the Queen Mother to voluntarily enter the nunnery, if she openly perverse tomorrow, she was afraid that she would provoke the Queen Mother's anger, and if she asked Chu Huaian for help, the Queen Mother would only think that she was disobedient and harmful, and even caused death.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly there was a voice behind her, Su Li was startled, jumped off instinctively, and hit Chu Huai'an's jaw with her head, so painful that Su Li snorted: "Hmm! ”

Chu Huai'an was also defenseless, he was hit and bit his tongue, and the corners of his eyes hurt so much that he forced tears out, but in a piece of water, he saw Su Li change into new clothes, and her hair flew in the rotation, like a pretty blooming bud.

After looking at the sick appearance for several days, at first glance, I saw this person's ruddy complexion, red lips and white teeth, it was like a rainy and sunny day for days, bright and moving, slender waist and long legs, all of which were not beautiful.

Chu Huai'an was stunned and forgot the pain, Su Li covered her head and frowned: "Master Hou is okay, right?" ”

"Something!" Chu Huai'an opened his mouth as he spoke, letting Su Li look at his bitten tongue: "Master's tongue was almost bitten off!" ”

"I'm sorry I didn't notice you coming in."

Su Lifu apologized, not at all calm and composed, Chu Huai'an looked at it with interest, suddenly stretched out his hand to take the person into his arms, his forehead touched, and he was very close to the bewitchment: "What's the use of being sorry?" This king's wound hurts, and he has to blow it to get better! ”

On weekdays, he played a lot with the girls in the Lanyue Pavilion, Chu Huai'an just wanted to tease Su Li on a whim, and he didn't feel how Meng Lang behaved, he thought that Su Li would refuse with righteous words like in the past, but he didn't want her to stand on tiptoe and get closer.

Breathing intertwined, Chu Huai'an smelled the good smell of rouge on her body, like a summer lotus, refreshing and pleasant, gently tugging at his heartstrings.

"Hoo ......"

Su Li pursed her lips and blew lightly, the fragrance was like an orchid, wrapped in coolness and swept over the wound, bringing a piece of coolness, and the slight itch of numbness ran from the tip of the tongue all the way through the spine, straight to the groin.

His body tensed suddenly, Chu Huai'an hugged Su Li hard, his breathing was unsteady, but he was angry: "Where did you learn all this mess?" ”

This move is frivolous, it is a trick that the dusty woman is used to please her benefactor, and this woman is also at her fingertips!

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the strength in Chu Huai'an's hand increased a little more, as if he wanted to break Su Li's waist, Su Li's face did not change, and he pulled some distance against Chu Huai'an's chest, and a faint smile was pulled out at the corner of his lips: "The secret technique of the bed, I can only learn a thing or two if I am used to seeing the wind and dust." ”

She said lightly, but Chu Huai'an was so angry that he was about to speak when he saw Su Li frowning, and poked his shoulder with a strange face: "Hou Ye hurt me, how can he be as rude as those Hu people who don't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?" ”

Not only did she not shy away from the fact that she had been captured, but she also deliberately mentioned it in front of Chu Huai'an several times, and Chu Huai'an could see her intentions no matter how stupid she was.

She was deliberately avoiding him.

Thinking of this, Chu Huai'an suppressed his anger and retracted his strength, but he didn't let go of Su Li, just stared at her and said: "This time I returned to Beijing, you first lied that your deceased husband had a son, and now you have reminded your master several times and three times that you are out of rhythm and profligate, do you think that you are afraid that your heavenly posture will be interested in you, or are you afraid that you will not be able to control your heart in the face of your lord's outstanding posture every day?" Well? ”

The last sound spilled out of the nasal cavity, like a soft and smooth feather swirling gently into the heart.

His eyes were frighteningly bright, and Su Li's somewhat stunned face was reflected in the deep and dark eyes, this question was like a gust of wind swept into her heart, and it blew to the secret place of the relationship that had been sealed in the dust for five years, and the seal was crumbling, but before it was unsealed, Su Li was choked by the dust that almost fell into tears.

The dust pierced into his lungs, and the ridicule and sneer of countless people sounded in his ears in a trance, Su Li slammed Chu Huai'an away: "Master Hou, there is a huge disparity between you and me, and now we are in the palace again, please respect yourself!" ”

Su Li's tone was short, she lost her composure, even the crimson rouge couldn't hide her suddenly pale complexion, Chu Huai'an was startled, remembering that there was still residual poison on her body, he hurriedly stepped forward, hugged her horizontally, and shouted loudly: "Someone, Imperial Doctor Xuan!" ”

Su Li's head hurt badly, and her eyes turned blood-red again, Chu Huai'an's voice gradually became farther and farther away, the surroundings fell into darkness and tranquility, and her soul drifted away from her body, I don't know how long it took, her feet finally stepped on the ground, and her vision returned to clarity.

Looking up, a bright moon hung in the night sky, the moonlight of Tsinghua poured all over the ground, and the watchman yawned and walked by, but the surrounding scene was blurry, Su Li was surprised, and suddenly there was an extra note in his hand, and when he looked down, it was a row of ugly words that seemed to have been gnawed by dogs: See you in the old place of the third watch, discuss the plan!

As soon as he finished reading it, the note caught fire, Su Li hurriedly shook it off, raised his foot and jumped to step on the fire extinguishing star, and it was dark in front of him, but he was put on a sack and carried on his shoulder.

"Who are you? Put me down! ”

She screamed, but the person carrying him didn't seem to hear it, just ran wildly, in the bumps, Su Li only felt uncomfortable in her stomach, I don't know how long it took, she was thrown to the ground, the sack on her head was torn open, but it was already dawn, she didn't know what happened, there were countless people around her pointing fingers, and not long after someone threw rotten vegetable leaves at her.

The fishy smell poured into her nasal cavity, and Su Li couldn't help but vomit anymore.

"Gross!!"

The dense crowd and rotten vegetable leaves disappeared without a trace, leaving only a happy familiar voice: "Okay, okay, finally spit it out!" ”

Tilting his head, in the flickering candle flame, a kind fat man sat on the edge of the bed with a spittoon, saw Su Li open his eyes, and hurriedly said, "Do you still want to vomit?" If you feel it, vomit more, so that the toxins can be cleared as soon as possible. ”

Her brain was swollen and aching, Su Li frowned and shook her head, and immediately a medical woman brought tea to rinse her mouth, and helped her wipe her mouth before helping her lie down.

The cloud veil above her head swayed gently like flowing clouds, Su Li looked at it in a daze, and her head suddenly poked straight above to look at her: "How do you feel?" Still alive? ”

He pretended to be relaxed, his face was full of squirrel, just like the young man who wrote ugly words back then, Su Li looked at him quietly, and finally got out of the nightmare of Fang Cai.

Secretly relieved, Su Li found that she was in a cold sweat, and her underwear was sticking to her body, which was very uncomfortable.

Just as she was about to sit up, her forehead was lightly poked, Chu Huaian looked at her seriously and asked, "What did you dream about just now, I heard you calling me to save you." ”

Chu Huai'an, save me!

He had never heard her call his name so eagerly, nor had he heard her voice so flustered, desperate and sad, and every call tugged at his heartstrings.

“…… Wake up and forget, it's probably a nightmare. ”

Su Li replied, lowering her eyes to cover the fear that had not completely subsided under her eyes.

Knowing that she didn't want to say more, Chu Huai'an didn't ask any more, got up and retreated to the side to make room for the fat doctor to continue to heal.

In the second half of the night, Su Li's situation finally stabilized, Chu Huai'an turned around and walked out of the side hall, the palace people on duty at night were carefully adding lamp oil to the lanterns in the corridor, seeing that he was not asleep, he hurriedly saluted respectfully, he raised his hand to avoid the rules, and his thoughts drifted away with the gently shaking lanterns in the corridor.

When Su Li was unconscious, in addition to asking him to save her, when she finally woke up, she asked in a very low voice: "Why don't you believe me?" ”

The voice was very soft and soft, with a slight tremble, but it was like a hammer slamming into the tip of his heart.

He remembered the dream that had always haunted him for the past five years, in which he was so drunk that Su Li always cried heartbreakingly and asked him why he didn't believe her.

He never remembered what she wanted to believe, but he remembered the sadness in her tone.

Originally, Chu Huai'an didn't care much about this dream, but after hearing Su Li's delirious murmur, he couldn't ignore it anymore.

When he woke up drunk that night, Su Li disappeared from the world and was never heard from, but he was afraid that what they talked about that night was related to her unruly bandit den at that time.

But if it was such an important matter, why would he not believe her?

……

The second day was Chinese New Year's Eve, and at the end of the day, the palace people were busy early, the eunuch of the Internal Affairs Office hung colorful silk and red lanterns around the palace, the imperial chef of the imperial dining room took out the housekeeping skills and began to cook the ingredients, and the palace maids of the Shangyi Bureau went to the palaces of various concubines with luxurious clothes to dress them up.

Su Li slept for a while, her spirit was much better, she couldn't lie down in the morning, she got up and freshened up and changed into the new clothes sent by the Queen Mother yesterday, she put on makeup as simply as yesterday, and was about to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye, Chu Huaian strode in in a royal blue brocade dress.

It was rare to get up so early, and after stepping through the door, he yawned twice, and there was still a hazy sleepiness on his face, which cut the grace of this brocade dress by a point.

"Hou Ye is early." Su Lifu bowed, and when Chu Huai'an approached, he bent down to help him straighten his belt.

"Who allowed you to wake up so early?" Chu Huai'an was quite dissatisfied, raised Su Li's chin, and wiped the thin powder off her face with his thumb, revealing a pale face that was still a little sickly.

"Why is your face so bad?" Chu Huai'an frowned, his expression a little gloomy.

"It's much better to rest for a night, thank you Lord Hou for your care." Su Li explained and took a step back and distanced herself from Chu Huai'an.

The fingertips lost the silky touch, and a small loss welled up in the bottom of my heart. Chu Huai'an put one hand behind his back and said casually: "There is no need to go to the court on Chinese New Year's Eve today, but the ministers of the central court will enter the palace to participate in the palace banquet, I don't have much time to accompany you, in case anything happens, send someone to the imperial garden or the imperial study to find me." ”

"Okay, I won't make trouble for Master Hou." Su Li lowered her head and responded obediently, Chu Huai'an's face stinked a little, was his sentence just now warning her not to cause trouble?

"That's it, I see that your face is not good, don't move around today, and when I come back later, we will go to the palace banquet together."

Chu Huai'an waved his hand and made a decision for Su Li, Su Li's identity is now embarrassing, and it is inconvenient to walk around the palace, so it is no better, just about to agree, Chu Huai'an reached out and untied the blank jade on his waist and stuffed it into Su Li's hand.

"Take it, be careful not to break it!" With that, turn around and leave.

The white jade is warm and moist, and it still has the residual warmth of the owner, and it feels excellent in the hand.

This jade was given to him by the first emperor on Chu Huai'an's tenth birthday, and he always carried it with him, almost never leaving his body, and seeing the jade was like seeing him himself.

Su Li held the jade, her expression was a little dazed, five years ago, this jade was also in her hands, but at that time, this jade was the dowry that the person wanted to accept her as a concubine.

Thoughts were mixed, a pink-clothed palace maid took small steps, and came suddenly, Su Li put away her thoughts and put the white jade into her sleeve pocket.

"Third Miss, the concubine is invited!"

There are only two concubines in this palace, and the concubine of the An family and Su Li have a relationship that cannot be matched, and there is only one Su concubine left who can send someone to invite Su Li in the early morning.

I haven't seen her for five years, and it's rare that this good sister can still remember her sister when thousands of pets are gathered together!

Su Li silently followed the maid of the pink-clothed palace out of the door, the morning light appeared, the entire palace was already full of lights, everywhere was filled with the joy of the New Year, although the palace people who came and went were in a hurry, but they all had a smile on their faces, just to leave a good impression on the nobles in the palace and ask for some rewards.

In just a few days, the tragic death of Li Meiren was like a melting snowflake, and no one remembered this person anymore.

Bypassing several palace gates, a gorgeous palace comes into view, the palace door plaque is a very elegant gilt font, and the three words of the palace reflect the golden light, shining.

When Chu Lingzhao had not yet ascended the throne, he often traveled with Chu Huai'an, and Su Li was fortunate to have seen his handwriting a few times, which was exactly the same as the three words on the door plaque.

The concubine's dormitory can get His Majesty's personal book door plaque, which shows that the holy family is very strong.

Su Li thought about it in her heart, people had entered the hall, and when they went to bed, the elegant incense wafted in, and on the wide step rocking bed, the crimson bed tents were layered on top of each other, like a sea of clouds.

The charcoal fire in the dormitory burned very vigorously, as soon as you entered the hall, it swept away the biting cold, the warmth made people sleepy, and the beauty could be seen through the bed tent only wearing tulle lying on the bed, and the waist was loosely covered with a silk quilt, and the exquisite curve loomed, which was fascinating.

After only one glance, Su Li retracted her gaze and knelt down with her eyes down: "The folk girl meets the concubine!" ”

"Sister, please get up! I haven't seen you for five years, how did my sister get so far apart from this palace? ”

A gentle anger sounded, Su Bangyue opened the bed tent, put on only a moon-white undershirt and hurriedly got out of bed and came to Su Li.

The beauty's black hair is scattered, her underwear is loose and her shoulders are half exposed, and the red marks on the porcelain white texture are clearly visible.

Obviously, she sent someone to invite Su Li first, but she just had to lie on the bed and be kneeled by Su Li, so she made such a sisterly appearance and helped Su Li up.

"The noble concubine is pregnant with a dragon heir, and she is dressed so thinly, don't damage your body for the sake of the girl!"

Su Li thoughtfully reminded her, took a step back without a trace, and refused to get too close to Su Bangyue, and the palace maid who was serving on the side immediately stepped forward to help Su Bangyue put on a cloak made of mink: "Niangniang, please take care of your precious body!" ”

"I haven't seen me for five years, but my sister's temperament has matured a lot, and she even cares about people." Su Wanyue grabbed her cloak and said with a smile, her complexion was ruddy and radiant, and she could see that she had been very moisturized in the past five years, which was in stark contrast to Su Li's pale face half-covered by her makeup.

"The concubine is praised!"

Su Li said polite words, Su Wanyue stepped forward and grabbed her hand again, and spoke, her soft words turned into a surprised exclamation: "Why did my sister's hand become like this?" ”

After rubbing the ointment before, the chilblains on his hands had scabbed, but they formed patches of bruises of different shapes, which were extremely ugly, and it was even more unbearable to be grasped by Su Wanyue's slender white hand at this moment.

Su Li withdrew her hand with a calm expression: "It's just some frostbite, it's already medicated, and it will get better when the spring is warm, so don't be so surprised." ”

Su Li didn't care much about what she said, but Su Wanyue covered her mouth and red eyes, and only choked up after a while: "Ah Li, in the past five years, you have suffered!" ”

Her eyes were red, and she cried so much that I felt pity for the pear blossoms and rain, and even Su Li was almost infected by her and gave birth to a bit of empty sisterhood.

It's just that if she really cares about her sisters' feelings, how can she watch her second sister be divorced and marry a scumbag like Zhang Ling without paying attention?

Besides, who copied Chu Huai'an's handwriting back then to trick himself into leaving the mansion and causing himself to be kidnapped by mountain bandits, isn't five years enough for Su Li to figure it out?

The coldness in her heart surged, but Su Li's face squeezed out a bit of sadness: "Ah Li has long been out of order, and now she has been removed from the family tree, so it is already a shame to make the eldest sister worry, and now that the mother is pregnant with the dragon heir, how dare you let the eldest sister be sad for me again?" ”

Su Li was an eldest sister, shouting affectionately and naturally, and with the dependence of a little girl in her tone, it was no different from when she was in the house, Su Bangyue was originally acting, but now she was reminded of the old memories, but she really felt a little emotional, and couldn't help patting Su Li's hand and whispering: "You have always been straightforward and fast-talking, how can you learn to play an official tone now?" ”

"The rules in the palace are strict, and I don't dare to speak falsely, for fear of embarrassing the eldest sister."

Su Li replied in a low voice, showing cowardice in her eyes, as if she had been away from Beijing for five years and had become a rural woman who didn't understand anything, seeing her like this, Su Bangyue's sense of superiority was even worse, and she pulled Su Li for a while, and after the relief, Su Bangyue tentatively spoke: "Last time my grandmother's birthday banquet, the palace went back to the province, and I heard my mother say that Ah Li brought a child back to Beijing, and the palace looked at the child who was born very smart, and the child's biological father ......."

"The child's biological father died of illness last year, and the mother and son were lonely, so the daughter returned to Beijing with a shy face and took the child to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors." Su Li quickly took over the reason, Su Wanyue stared at her for a while, saw her expression serious and serious, suddenly patted her chest and said, "I see, I thought Ah Li and Xiaoyao Hou had already ......."

The rest of the words, Su Wanyue didn't finish it, but what did it mean, Su Li could understand it as long as she wasn't stupid, Su Wanyue thought that the child was Chu Huai'an's.

Although Su Li had thoughts about Chu Huai'an that she shouldn't have at the beginning, she had never crossed the rules, let alone the secret song, the secret knot of the bead fetus, how could Su Bangyue have such a misunderstanding?

"The eldest sister misunderstood, the Hou Ye's love in his heart is someone else."

Su Li explained softly that Su Wanyue had not yet completed her marriage with her son today, and Chu Huai'an's love was warm and hot, even if it was disguised, since Su Li could detect it, it was impossible for Su Wanyue not to know.

"Really? When his sister had an accident, Hou Ye hired him in a high-profile manner, and Bengong and others thought that his sister was Hou Ye's heart. Su Wanyue said with a smile.

Su Li secretly bit her tongue, her eyes were red, and she made a look of gritting her teeth and holding back her tears: "Sister said that I laughed, if Master Hou is really pleased with me, how can he ignore me in the past five years?" How can you allow those gossips to slander me and not defend me? ”

In the past five years, Su Li has often followed Lu Ji to spy on the enemy in disguise, and it can be said that acting is at her fingertips, and now this aggrieved appearance greatly satisfies Su Wanyue's vanity.

"There are too many people who know about my sister being kidnapped and abandoned at the gate of the mansion back then, even if the Hou Ye has the heart, he can't stop the mouth of Youyou."

Yes, in front of everyone's eyes, everyone knows that her innocence has been ruined, even if Chu Lingzhao makes a holy decree, it will not be able to restore her reputation, how vicious it takes to think of such a clever plan? ?

Su Li sneered in her heart, and cried even more pitifully on her face: "My sister is right, I am just talking, this time I returned to Beijing, let the child enter the ancestral hometown, I have no worries in my heart, I wanted to be a sister-in-law and save peace, I didn't expect Hou Ye to take me to the Hou Mansion, I thought that Hou Ye was thinking of the old love to give me a place to settle down, but he hated me for returning his dowry back then, and wanted to take the opportunity to torture and retaliate against me!" Is there a way for my sister to save me? ”

This sisterly affection is sincere, and the grievances in these words are also real, Su Wanyue immediately picked up a silk handkerchief to help Su Li wipe her tears: "You acted too impulsively at the beginning, how can you say that you can return the dowry of the Hou Ye?" ”

"At that time, something like that happened, even if the Hou Ye was willing to accept me as a concubine in the face of his sister, but my body was ruined, how could I dare to enter the gate of the Hou Mansion?"

Su Li said, crystal tears fell, and her lips were bitten white by her, distressed and helpless, as if she didn't know anything about the events of the year.

Seeing this, Su Wanyue was relieved.

"Even so, my sister shouldn't have returned the marquis's dowry."

"Ah Li knows that she is wrong, but now that Hou Ye is not reluctant, does my sister have a way to let Hou Ye let me go to break the red dust?" Su Li asked, her eyes full of tears in anticipation, and she didn't know what kind of torture Chu Huai'an had used on her.

Su Wanyue was naturally deceived by her, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and her face was entangled: "This is a private matter of the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion, but now I am in the harem, but it is inconvenient to interfere, and my sister is not impulsive, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think more about your children!" ”

These words, on the surface, were comforting Su Li, but secretly they wanted to push her into the fire pit.

If Chu Huai'an really wanted to deliberately take revenge on her, her life in the Xiaoyao Mansion would be difficult, and besides, with the status of a widow, staying in the Xiaoyao Mansion would be even more unjustifiable, if it was publicized, Su Zhan would have such a biological mother would be a stain on her life, where is it for the sake of the child?

"That's what my sister said."

Su Li nodded in agreement, and cried with Su Wanyue again, and got several bead hairpin bracelets before coming out of the Yunchen Palace.

The tears in the corners of her eyes were blown away by the cold wind, Su Li was sad, walked back slowly, and walked halfway, seeing Chu Huai'an coming in a hurry, before he got closer, he heard him scold: "I'll let you stay good, what are you running around!?" ”

His tone was very bad, his face was even more heavy, Su Lifu was about to confess, but he held him up, and the corners of his eyes were rubbed by warm fingertips: "Crying? ”

There was fire in the fingertips, Su Li lowered her eyes and lowered her head: "I just saw the eldest sister, and I couldn't help myself." ”

As soon as he lowered his head, the two bright and delicate pearl hairpins on his head broke into Chu Huai'an's eyes, a white hosta and a golden coral hairpin, which were very beautiful, and they were all worn by Su Wanyue before.

Knowing that it was Su Bangyue who called Su Li away, Chu Huai'an breathed a sigh of relief, and then raised his hand to take off the golden feather coral hairpin on Su Li's head.

"This hairpin was given to her by the Queen Mother last year for her birthday, how dare you ask for it?"

Chu Huai'an's tone was a little reproachful, he didn't realize it himself, but he didn't know what kind of infatuation it should be in the eyes of others, he even remembered the origin of Su Bangyue's pearl hairpin so clearly......

"The concubine has mercy, and what was given to me was not known to be so valuable."

Su Li explained, and Chu Huai'an put the pearl hairpin into his sleeve pocket and instructed: "That's it, since it's given to you, keep it, but don't wear it out in the future." ”

People like him have always been informal, but he is always meticulous and thoughtful in Su Bangyue's affairs.

Su Li bowed her head and walked back with him, walked two steps, and heard him whisper: "If you want anything in the future, ask the master." ”

"Yes!"

How much can a person love another person?

Even if it was a gadget that the person threw at random to others, he regarded it as a treasure and had to hide it.

Chu Huai'an didn't take Su Li back to the palace, so he simply took her directly with him and went to the imperial garden.

Today's weather is fine, many ministers of the DPRK and China have entered the palace to celebrate the New Year, Su Liangxing is also among them, and he saw Su Li walking with Chu Huai'an from a distance, his face was long, and his whole body exuded displeasure.

The Su family style is very strict, and has always advocated that women are in the house, take the husband as the sky, and never show their heads, but now Su Li's identity is embarrassing, and there is a scandal five years ago, Su Liangxing naturally regards her like an abscess and a scar, and he can't wait to cut her off with a knife.

Knowing that she was not likable, Su Li still greeted Su Liangxing politely and thoughtfully, and then stood behind Chu Huai'an as a transparent person.

Since the poisoning, Su Li has been recuperating in the palace, and she didn't know that she was famous because of this matter, and standing beside Chu Huai'an at this moment, she immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Everyone is very curious, how can this third lady of the Su family become the life-saving benefactor of Xiaoyao Hou after retiring from the dowry of Xiaoyaohou.

Those eyes were either inquisitive or curious, they were all very straightforward and explicit, Su Li unconsciously straightened her back slightly, and was nervous, when a warm voice came.

"How is Ah Li's body recovering?"

Turning around, Gu Yuanfeng came slowly in a navy blue court robe.
