At the beginning of the new emperor's establishment, the undercurrent was obscure
Li Zhi, who had already been burned all over his body by the fire in his chest, immediately regained some consciousness when he saw those tearful eyes.
While secretly scolding himself for not being able to do anything, he let go of her hand.
Mei Niang got the opportunity, so she hurriedly broke free and took two steps back.
Between the two, there was a moment of embarrassment.
After a long time, Li Zhi exhaled a long breath, got up and said:
"Uh...... Night...... It's late at night, I'm ...... There are also some political ......"
"Mei Niang sends off the Lord."
Hearing this, Mei Niang opened her mouth almost without thinking.
Li Zhi was stunned, and there was a contradiction of unwillingness and helplessness in his heart.
After a long time, he sighed softly:
"That's it, I'll go first. I'll see you another day. β
Getting up, he left, but stopped when he walked to the door of the temple, and said to Mei Niang without looking back:
"Hopefully, I hope that the next time you come, you will be able to figure it out......
Do you want to stay with me or not? β
After speaking, he left alone, leaving Mei Niang alone, sitting quietly in the hall and weeping.
As soon as Li Zhi left, Ruian, who was guarding outside the hall, hurried in, and asked Mei Niang in a loud voice what was the reason and why Li Zhi was in such a state......
But as soon as he saw Mei Niang crying, he immediately closed his mouth, thought about it, turned around and quietly retreated, and went to Xu Hui Palace.
After a while, Xu Hui, who heard that Ryan was coming, put on a dress and sat next to Mei Niang.
Mei Niang was silent, just looked up blankly and looked at her:
"Am I wrong?"
Xu Hui sighed softly:
"No, it's not.
It's the Lord who is too anxious. β
Mei Niang whimpered softly and leaned into Xu Hui's arms.
β¦β¦
A moment later.
After Li Zhi, who finally returned to the Taiji Palace, angrily drank back the fourth palace person who served, De'an couldn't stand it after all, and exchanged glances with Wang De, so they went their separate ways.
De'an came forward to persuade Li Zhi, and Wang De retreated with the palace people.
"Lord, you don't have to be like that......
After all, Sister Wu, she ...... She'll just figure it out. You're ...... But I'm a little anxious. β
Li Zhi raised his head, glared at him, and immediately lowered his head and said:
"I know."
De'an was a little surprised, but looked at Li Zhi but didn't speak.
Li Zhi thought for a long time before rubbing his forehead and said:
"I know......
It's that I'm too anxious.
And...... And right now, she is still a talented person from her father......
But Dean, I'm ......
I've had her in my heart for ten years now.
It's been 10 years!
Now she finally agreed, but ......"
Li Zhi looked at De'an in confusion:
"But why did she ......?"
"Lord, although De'an doesn't understand this woman's mind, he has also heard Sister Xu say it. In fact, it takes some time for a woman in the world to give her heart to a man.
It's just that we're in this palace...... It's always different from the outside, Lord, since you were a child, you have watched all the ladies and concubines fight each other everywhere in order to get the first emperor and your beloved, and naturally you always feel that you should take it for granted......
However, in the Lord, Sister Wu is different from others...... So, bear with me.
Again, as you say. Is Sister Wu still not in the right name now, and her words are not good......
If the Lord blindly insisted, not only did he wronged her, but I am afraid that in the future, there will be many people who will gossip about her!
Lord, you want to be with Sister Wu for the rest of your life! For the sake of long-term consideration......
Dean knows you've been waiting for ten years. But Lord, you've been waiting for ten years, and you don't care about the month or two. Really? β
After listening to De'an's persuasion, Li Zhi finally wanted to open up, sighed, and said with a wry smile:
"It's true that I'm too anxious. Didn't think about it for her......
Well, after all, if she doesn't have a name to follow me......
Don't say it's her, I don't want to. β
Another soft sigh escaped from his mouthβ
But God knows, how long can he suppress his thoughts and longings for her?
When he and her were polite before, everything was fine...... He can also suppress one or two.
But these days, there have been so many contacts, so many contacts......
Every time, little by little, it ignited the fire in his heart.
How many times do you dream about it day and night?
How many times did he dream that Mei Niang finally snuggled in his arms? Thinking of him alone?
β¦β¦
Li Zhi was speechless, looking ahead and losing his mind.
The first day of the ninth month of the twenty-third year of Zhenguan.
Tai Chi Palace.
East Palace.
Cheng'en Temple.
The crown princess Wang looked at the fire-colored pill lying quietly in the open brocade box in front of her, gritted her teeth, and said softly:
"Does this really work?"
The slave bowed respectfully and said in a low voice:
"This Dan's name is called the Rejuvenation Pill. It was offered by an old doctor outside the palace. The slave and maid inquired, and it did work wonders. is not convinced, just smell it, but it can also urge men and women to be emotional, and it is difficult to hold the emotion. β
When Wang Shanrou heard this, she hurriedly covered her mouth and nose.
Seeing this, the slave smiled lightly and said:
"Don't worry, this thing is sealed with wax!"
When Wang heard this, he put down his sleeves and instructed tightly:
"Put it away first! But at the moment, I still can't use ......."
"Yes!"
The slave bowed again, then put it away, and turned around and walked to the small warehouse in the west side hall.
Entering the small warehouse, she looked left and right, and then took out the small brocade box from her arms, pushed open the secret compartment behind the bookshelf, and hid it in it.
Then, looking left and right again, he closed the dark grid, walked out of the temple gently, and led the temple door.
β¦β¦
A moment later, a small eunuch came out of the shadows.
Looking at the direction in which the slave left, he smiled faintly, and according to the appearance of the slave, he went to open the dark compartment and take out the brocade box from it.
opened the brocade box and took a look, and then took out the rejuvenation pill and hid it in his sleeve pocket, the little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, closed the dark compartment, restored everything to its original state, and left in a hurry.
In the west side hall, there was silence again.
β¦β¦
An hour later.
Tai Chi Palace.
Tai Chi Hall.
Li Zhi looked at the elixir offered by Wang De, his face was calm, and he was silent.
Wang De looked at Li Zhi's face like this, and he was also uneasy, but he was a little happy in his heart - after all, the woman still died by herself.
After a long time, Li Zhicai said coldly:
"Are you sure you got it from her palace?"
The old slave asked carefully. The boy watched as the slave placed this object in the dark compartment of the west side hall of the Cheng'en Temple. And when the Liu family came that day, he also listened carefully in the dark outside the hall, and he couldn't be wrong. β
Li Zhi snorted coldly, and said after a long time:
"What a Wang girl...... In order to compete for favor, this kind of crop thing is also made! β
Wang De thought about it for a while, but persuaded:
Or...... The crown princess is just confused for a while? Lord, after all, the matter of the East Palace a few days ago, the crown princess and the princess did suffer some grievances. β
"There are many people who have been wronged, but how many are as calculating as her?"
Li Zhi smiled disdainfully, picked up the box, and wanted to throw it to Wang De, thought about it for a while, but stopped his hand, and muttered for a long time before saying:
"That's it, it's not a glorious thing after all."
Yibi said, and Yibi took the pill out of the box, and only threw an empty box to Wang De.
