At dusk, everything is dyed red by the sunset that is about to sink into the western mountains, the farmers in the fields are still sweating their hard work in the afterglow that is about to fade, but the glorious and majestic Forbidden City has become hazy due to the obscuration of the high-walled compound, hundreds of palaces have cast their own melancholy shadows, the courtyards are a little deeper, and in this time, the line between good and evil has become blurred.

Ren Hongfei slowly walked towards Wang Cairen's residence, and greeted several palace maids and eunuchs with a smile, Ren Hongfei nodded, in this time of wolf and dog, he couldn't tell which one was his friend and which one was the wolf that could bite.

Pushing open the door of Wang Cairen's room, Ren Hongfei walked in and turned around to close the door, Zhu Youxiao in the room knelt in front of the bed like a statue, the blanket on Wang Cairen's body had been lifted, his eyes had been closed, and the blood on his face had been wiped clean.

The two palace maids were also kneeling behind Zhu Youxiao, Dongmei had disappeared, and there was a young woman who looked to be twenty-four or five years old sitting at the table in the middle of the room, with watery peach blossom eyes, a curved water snake waist, thin spring eyebrows, a very straight and straight nose, a slight deficiency is that the lips are slightly thicker, a pink embroidered tight-fitting wide-sleeved blouse, an emerald green silk cover skirt, a knot tied with gold silk satin at the waist, and a jasper butterfly hairpin with low hanging sideburns, which looks very slender, glamorous, and seductive. She is Zhu Youxiao's nurse, named Keyinyue, a native of Dingxing, Hebei, who entered the palace at the age of eighteen and became Zhu Youxiao's nurse.

Ren Hongfei walked to Wang Cairen's bed, knelt down next to Zhu Youxiao, knocked his head three times, and his forehead was slightly red.

Ren Hongfei, who was still kneeling on the ground, said: "Boss, it's time to go to Li Xuanshi." Before playing hide and seek, Ren Hongfei whispered to Zhu Youxiao and asked him to go to his mother's room to take a look, Ren Hongfei had already guessed that Zhu Changluo would leave the palace, and even if Zhu Youxiao was grief-stricken, there would be a close palace maid to stop him from making trouble.

Zhu Youxiao, who was next to him, was silent for a while, and responded in a dumb voice: "Well, I know." The tears had already flowed half an hour ago, and his throat had been hoarse half an hour ago, and after this half hour of cooling, he had slowly calmed down.

Ren Hongfei said: "You can't ask anyone about this matter, you have to pretend that you don't know anything from Li Xuanshi, and you have to mingle with them, otherwise it will cause a monstrous disaster." ”

Zhu Youxiao turned his head to look at him violently, and said angrily: "My mother was beaten to death, I can't even ask, why, ah?" At the end, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but roar.

Ren Hongfei, who was kneeling on the ground, grabbed the placket on Zhu Youxiao's chest, pulled it in front of him, gritted his teeth and whispered hatred: "Just yesterday afternoon, my mother was also killed, and she was beaten to death in front of me, I watched it, I can't do anything, you are the same, if you want to live, you have to do what I say, if you want to find death yourself, then go and question Zhu Changluo, whatever you want." ”

Zhu Youxiao was stunned for a moment and muttered: "What, Lady Liu was also killed..."

Ren Hongfei let go of his hand and said in a low voice: "If you want your mother to look away, you have to live well, only by living can you have hope of rehabilitating her and wash away her grievances, do you think your mother will not be at peace under Jiuquan?" ”

Ke Yinyue looked at Ren Hongfei in surprise, he didn't expect him to be able to say this at a young age, Ke Yinyue got up and twisted her waist and walked to Zhu Youxiao, who was still looking dull, and gently persuaded: "Brother Xiao, what the fifth son said is right, you are right to listen to him, you must live well, in order to comfort your mother's spirit in the sky, and if you have three long and two short, who will I rely on in the future, how can I live?" As he spoke, his eyes began to redden.

Zhu Youxiao calmed down for a while, looked at Ke Yinyue, who was secretly about to cry, and hurriedly said, "Auntie, I must be obedient and hide this matter in my heart." ”

Ke Yinyue nodded slightly, and pulled Zhu Youxiao and Ren Hongfei up from the ground, Zhu Youxiao knelt for too long, his knees were numb, and he almost stumbled and fell again, Ke Yinyue hurriedly held on.

Ke Yinyue closed Ren Hongfei and Zhu Youxiao's hands, held them tightly, and said to Ren Hongfei: "The fifth son has been smart and clever since he was a child, and his heart is like an adult, although the school brother is older than you, he is honest and honest, and he is straightforward. ”

Ren Hongfei hurriedly said: "Aunt Hakka is serious, the boss usually treats me best, I must not let him suffer any grievances, but after all, under the fence, difficulties are indispensable, I will definitely try my best to enlighten the boss." ”

Ke Yinyue's eyes were red, tears finally dropped, and she sobbed slightly: "Brother Xiao'er, when you go to Li Xuanshi, you must listen to the words of the fifth son, don't be impulsive and get into trouble, I'm just afraid that I won't be able to serve you anymore in the future, you don't even have your own people around you, and you can't take care of yourself, so how can I feel at ease." ”

Zhu Youxiao suddenly withdrew his hand, hugged Ke Yinyue's waist with both arms, and also howled and cried, watching the true feelings of the two of them revealed, reluctant, Ren Hongfei couldn't help but bow his head gloomily, pondered for a while, Ren Hongfei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he finally remembered the role of this Ke Yinyue.

Ren Hongfei pulled the two apart and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's like parting with life and death, be quiet, be careful to hear outside, Aunt Ke, you go back and stay in peace for a few days, I will find a way to try to let you serve the boss as soon as possible." ”

Ke Yinyue and Zhu Youxiao were overjoyed at the same time, stretched out their hands to wipe their tears, and Zhu Youxiao took Ren Hongfei's hands: "Old Five, do you have a way to let your aunt pass?" ”

Ren Hongfei smiled and said lightly: "I'm thinking about it, although I haven't figured it out yet, I'm ninety percent sure." ”

Zhu Youxiao took his hand and swayed it from side to side, with a smile on his face: "Great, Old Five, I really don't know how to thank you." ”

Ke Yinyue looked at Ren Hongfei suspiciously, the firm and confident look on Ren Hongfei's face made her feel great hope, Ke Yinyue bowed and said: "If you can return to the school brother, if the fifth son has any orders in the future, the slave family will definitely obey." ”

Ren Hongfei said with a smile: "Okay, everyone clean up their faces, it's not early, if you don't leave and be found here, then you can't explain." ”

Ke Yinyue hurriedly instructed the two palace maids to fetch water for Zhu Youxiao to wash his face and dry it, combed his hair and sideburns, and told Zhu Youxiao thousands of instructions, and then sent Ren Hongfei and Zhu Youxiao to go out, Ke Yinyue whispered to the two palace maids: "Don't talk too much about this matter, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to the school brother." ”

The two palace maids hurriedly said: "Wang Cairen is like sisters to me, and we will never talk nonsense." ”

Ke Yinyue nodded, turned her head to look at Wang Cairen's body on the bed, sighed softly, and turned around to leave.

The sky outside the house had completely darkened, and in such a quiet night, the fields were bustling with birds, frogs, and crickets singing to their heart's content, but how many people were weeping, weeping, and regretting in this tall and majestic imperial city?
