At night, in the cold and deserted hall of Gyeongbokgung Palace, two candles just illuminated the table in front of Zhu Changluo......

I secretly thought in my heart, if Concubine Gong knew that she was reading this kind of book to her brother, would he be beaten to death!

In fact, Wang An'an is also very strange, his brother is twelve years old this year, but he has never read a book or practiced calligraphy, Wang An is clear about this, but today when his brother suddenly asked him to find some pen, ink, paper, inkstone scrolls, he was really surprised!

But fortunately, there is an inner study hall for the enlightenment of the little servant in this palace, although the pen, ink, paper and inkstone are not of the highest quality, but they are also usable...... The Four Books and Five Classics are not allowed to be taken out of the Inner Book Hall, so he really has no choice, so he has to come over and fill up the stories of these words and stories hidden in the private of the palace maids!

I thought that my brother had never been enlightened, and it would be enough to use this to know some words, but who would have thought that as soon as I took the scroll back, my brother would read it with relish......

But now these are not the point, looking at the girl in thin clothes and kneeling on the ground under the stairs of the palace, Wang An wanted to speak several times, but was blocked by Zhu Changluo's cold face. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Brother, it's getting late, let's rest, be careful when you recover from a serious illness!"

The door of the main hall was not closed, it was late autumn, and a cold wind blew, which made Li Cui'er can't help but hug her body tightly, her big eyes were full of grievances, adding a little more delicate, seeing this scene, Wang An couldn't help it anymore, stepped forward and said softly.

"There's nothing wrong with my body, if you want to plead, just say it, you don't have to beat around the bush!"

Zhu Changluo closed the scroll in his hand with a calm face, smashed it and smashed his mouth, as if he was a little unsatisfied, and looked up at Li Cui'er's pitiful appearance, but he was not moved at all, but a touch of dissatisfaction in Wang An's tone made him raise his eyebrows, and said in a cold voice.

"Brother, then Wang An will say it directly!"

Wang An is a tenacious character, although he heard Zhu Changluo's displeasure, he still couldn't help but speak.

"Cui'er has been following her brother and mother for a few years, even if she makes any mistakes, her brother's punishment is inevitably too harsh, not to mention that even if you want to beat and punish, you have to have a reason to ......"

Now it is the beginning of the child's time, Wang is worried and tired these days, but his body is not very bearable, so he went to rest early, but after Wang rested, his brother suddenly punished Li Cuier to kneel here, and until now, Wang An was confused.

He has been following his brother for a few years, and Cui'er came to Gyeongbokgung Palace earlier than him, and there is only one Cui'er in this palace who can serve the Wang family, so Wang An can't help but be a little closer to her, and at this moment, seeing that she has no name and no point, she was punished, so she was naturally a little indignant.

"Huh, from the head?"

The corners of Zhu Changluo's mouth pulled up a sneer, squinted at the aggrieved Li Cui'er on the ground, and said coldly.

"You might as well ask Cui'er why she knelt here for a few hours without even shouting a grievance!"

"This ......"

Wang An was speechless for a while, but he couldn't speak.

Yes, if Cui'er really didn't make a mistake, why didn't she open her mouth to avenge her knees for so long? Brother is not an unsentimental person, even if there is any misunderstanding, as long as he explains it clearly, it will be fine.

But until now, Cui'er hasn't said a word!

An unbelievable thought came to his mind, which made Wang An startled, could it be...... Is Cui'er in a weak heart?

Feeling Wang An's suspicious gaze, Li Cuier's face suddenly turned pale, and she bit her lower lip tightly, as if she realized that she was wrong, straightened up and pretended to be stubborn and said.

"The slave doesn't know what's wrong with her? Let my brother punish him like this! The slave and maid are kneeling here because the brother asked the slave and the maid to kneel, and the brother did not speak, how could the slave and the maid dare to get up without permission? ”

"It's a clever girl......"

Zhu Changluo smiled slightly, and his whole body exuded an awe-inspiring meaning, if he was only a little suspicious before, then now he can almost be sure that this Li Cui'er has bad intentions!

"In that case, let me ask you, where does the golden hairpin in your house come from, and where does the fat powder you apply on your face every day come from?

Did you really see Qin Xiaoyu in the imperial dining room today? Why did she say in front of Concubine Zheng that it was a letter you sent her? ”

The voice rose step by step, and the tone became more and more cold, just as a cold wind blew, making Li Cuier's body tremble slightly, and her expression was slightly excited.

"Impossible, I haven't seen Sister Xiaoyu, I clearly told ...... about this"

In the middle of the conversation, Li Cui'er stopped suddenly, there was no trace of blood on her face, and she looked at Zhu Changluo as if she had seen a monster.

"Cui'er, is it really you?"

Wang An's expression was like swallowing a fly, his face became extremely ugly for a moment, his eyes were full of shock, anger, and unbearable, all kinds of complex emotions were intertwined, and finally turned into a thick disappointment.

He was transferred to serve Zhu Changluo's daily life at the age of twelve, and now it has been more than three years, what is the situation in Gyeongbokgung Palace, no one knows better than him, brother and Concubine Gong's life is not easy, but it is excellent for the two of them, and they have never lost their temper.

Although it is not as privileged as in other palaces, Wang An has always felt very satisfied, he has always thought that Cui'er is the same as him, serving Concubine Gong wholeheartedly, who would have thought that she would betray her brother?

For a moment, Wang An only felt cold, as if his whole body was drenched in cold water!

"That's all said and done, so there's no need to hide it! If my guess is correct, you are not Concubine Zheng's cronies, then what is your purpose in being by my mother and son for so many years? ”

Looking at Wang An's reaction, Zhu Changluo sighed slightly, although Wang An was loyal, he lacked the heart to defend against people after all, so when the truth was revealed, he would be so caught off guard......

Gathering his mind and returning his gaze to Li Cui'er on the ground, Zhu Changluo said with a sneer.

Today, he once asked the Wang family on the side, and naturally knew that this Li Cuier's net worth was innocent, and she was not Concubine Zheng's cronies, which was also the reason why the Wang family dared to put her by her side, not to mention that she had served their mother and son for several years, if she had betrayed it a long time ago, I am afraid that their mother and son would have to suffer even more!

However, after some gaffes just now, this time Li Cuier seemed to have learned well, and her small mouth was closed and she didn't say a word.

She is not a stupid person, she is just in a hurry, and she has only revealed her stuffing for a while, and now that she is sober, she naturally understands the situation in front of her, even if the current brother is different from before, but looking at what happened today, you can know that Concubine Gong is the weakness of her brother!

She has served the Wang family for so many years, and there is always affection, without evidence, even if it is a brother, it is impossible to slander her at will, not to mention that if this matter is really known to the Wang family, she will only be more sad than Wang An, so Li Cuier is very determined, even if it is for the sake of Concubine Gong, her brother will not really treat her well.

At this thought, her back straightened a little, and her heart settled down a little.

"Cui'er, do you know that there are a large number of palace maids in this palace who are missing every year, because they offend nobles, do you think you can make an exception?"

Zhu Changluo glanced at Li Cui'er deeply, but his tone was very cold.

"No, the mother won't let you do that!"

I don't know where the courage came from, Li Cui'er raised her head and said in a trembling voice.

She knew in her heart that the Wang family was her talisman!

But this thought, how could Zhu Changluo not be clear, and laughed mockingly.

"Cui'er, you think too highly of yourself! There are many ways to deal with your little palace maid! Concubine Zheng suffered such a big loss today, she was not angry, she was angry with you, is this reason enough? If you don't see anyone in your life and don't see your body in death, do you think my mother will go to Concubine Zheng for verification for you! ”

With a hint of pity in his eyes, Zhu Changluo looked at Li Cuier condescendingly.

After all, it's just a teenage girl, even if it's a little scheming, it's still too tender!

"Brother, brother, let me go! I really didn't mean to! They forced me, by the way, it was Qin Xiaoyu, she said that if I didn't help her, she would throw me to the Huanyi Bureau, I was really forced! ”

Seeing Zhu Changluo's increasingly cold gaze, Li Cuier finally panicked, stepped forward on her knees, and kept kowtowing and said, her eyes were full of tears, and with the girl's delicate face, she looked pitiful.

"Really? So it's coercion, not inducement? Let me think about it, it seems that the palace maids in Changchun Palace have a lot more rewards than those in our Gyeongbok Palace! ”

Zhu Changluo smiled slightly, but Li Cuier seemed to have seen through everything at once, and she was flustered in her heart, and she forgot to speak in a daze.

What she said was indeed half-truths and half-truths, although Concubine Zheng Guifei tried her best to embarrass the Wang family's mother and son, but she would not surrender her identity to find her a little capital, but she couldn't stand the cold life in Gyeongbokgung Palace, so she went to the door by herself, and Qin Xiaoyu also promised that as long as she could pass on valuable information, she would be transferred out of Gyeongbokgung Palace......

"Tsk, such a beautiful face should have been the life of the mother, if it is ruined like this, it is a pity!"

Zhu Changluo stretched out his hand to caress Li Cui'er's pretty face, and said as if he couldn't bear it, but Li Cui'er seemed to be stung, and her body shook in an instant.

"What do you want, brother, please say! Slaves and maids listen to you! ”

There was a slight movement in her heart, but Li Cui'er's eyes showed a greedy light, and she raised her head and said.

At this point, if she couldn't see that Zhu Changluo had the intention to let her go, she would have stayed in the palace for so many years in vain, not to mention that if Zhu Changluo really wanted to kill her, he wouldn't have told her so much.

"Clever girl! In that case, drink it! ”

Li Cuier's expression changed, and naturally all fell into Zhu Changluo's eyes, nodded with satisfaction, and said softly.

After that, Zhu Changluo stretched out his hand and lifted the tea lid on the side, the cyan medicinal soup in the cup had already cooled, but when he opened it at this moment, there was still a faint bitter taste permeating the air.

"What is this?"

Looking at the ordinary cyan medicinal soup, Li Cuier's heart suddenly rose with an ominous premonition, Zhu Changluo's smiling face also became as terrifying as a fierce god, Li Cuier's teeth couldn't help but tremble, but she still managed to keep her composure.

"Jedo soup!"

The corners of the young man's mouth hooked up a sunny smile, revealing his white teeth, and the three words of understatement made Li Cuier feel like falling into an ice cave!
