Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 8

I heard someone knocking on the door in a daze, and I subconsciously thought that it was the little maid from the Yan Mansion who came to call me to get up. When I answered, I suddenly realized that something was wrong. As soon as I moved my arm, I came to my senses because of the numbness and pain.

"Awake?"

I raised my eyes and saw that Chu Yi was getting dressed, and I quickly covered my eyes by practicing the ancient adage of "don't look at indecent things". "Sorry! I've been missing a bit of sleep lately, and I accidentally slept yesterday. ”

Chu Yi said: "It's already dawn!" You'd better not go out and stay here. I'll let Motogari guard outside, the people in the palace don't dare to come in casually, I have a way to take you out. ”

Before I could say thanks, I heard him go out. When I took off the hand that covered my eyes, I heard my stomach "growling". I was sick yesterday afternoon and was about to enter the palace, and I haven't eaten at all until now, so it's no wonder I'm hungry now. I walked around the room, and there was nothing to eat, so I had to give up.

Even though I knew that there was someone guarding outside, I was still not very reassured. My current combat power is too low, and it is too difficult to deal with the masters in this palace. I looked under the bed, and I felt that it was too detrimental to my demeanor, so I chose to give up. I looked around the room and ended up hiding in a closet.

To alleviate the pain of hunger, I began to reminisce to distract myself. I remember when I was a child, my brother took me home after staying at the palace for a few days. Passing by a restaurant, I pestered to go up to eat, but my brother refused at first, but he couldn't screw me.

There is always a scenery in the restaurant, that is, a group of white-clothed scholars sitting together, chatting about national affairs. I like to join in this kind of fun, but my brother doesn't like this kind of scene, and my brother thinks that they are talking about state affairs. When a man at the next table said a name, my brother began to listen to their conversation. This name is Chu Yi.

I was so focused on eating that I didn't hear what they were saying. Seeing that my brother listened to the gossip so seriously for the first time, I also stopped my chopsticks curiously, but the adjacent table had already finished speaking, and the lively crowd had dispersed.

The elder brother held the cup and did not speak, looking thoughtful. I asked, "Brother, who is Chu Yi?" ”

My brother put a chopstick dish in my bowl and said slowly: "Chu Yi is the king of Qi and is known as the god of war of Qi. According to these keywords, I sketched the appearance of Chu Yi in my mind, "God of War?!" It's about the same age as my father. And it should look scary. Look at Daddy's eyes, how scary it is. ”

As I spoke, imitating my father's glaring eyes, my brother knocked my head with a smile, "How can a daughter mock her own father like this?" And you happen to be completely the opposite. Chu Yi is fourteen years old this year, younger than your brother and me, but he has already taken the border city of Qi Wei Shancheng with his own ability. Moreover, he is not a reckless man, I heard that he is handsome and looks like Pan An. ”

I let out a "snort" and picked up my chopsticks again, "It's just that I've heard, who has ever seen a real person?" Maybe he's pockmarked and not as good as my brother. ”

However, I admit that when I first met Chu Yizhen, I felt that my brother was right. Pan An is alive, but that's it. As for my brother, he has completely become a willow.

After spending a lot of time in the cupboard, my head is a little stuffy. I think I'll suffocate here if I stay a little longer. I was about to push the door open, but the door opened on its own. I instantly raised my throat in one breath, and I didn't let go until I saw the person clearly.

Chu Yi helped me out of the cabinet. "Shang Wan, you single-handedly picked off the most powerful person under this king's command, and now you look like this, this king feels that he has recognized the wrong person."

I pushed him away vigorously and gritted my teeth and said, "Tiger falls in Pingyang!" ”

"This king helps you, but you scold this king, what is the reason?" Chu Yi said and handed me a set of clothes, I unfolded it and looked at it, it seemed to be the clothes of the palace maid again. I said: "Lord, you didn't bring a maid when you entered the palace, but now that you have a maid, others won't be suspicious?" ”

"How stupid do you think this king is?" Chu Yi said, "It's not early, you hurry up and put it on, this king is going to leave the palace." "He didn't go out, he just walked to the window with his back to me. There was a strange man here, and I was a little embarrassed. However, he had his reasons, and I could not question them, so I had to lower the curtain in the inner room, and quickly change my clothes.

"Lord Wang! I'm all right. As I spoke, I heard a gurgling sound in my stomach. Looking at Chu Yi's smiling expression, I said embarrassedly: "That, I've been hungry for a day." ”

My explanation brought a smile to his face. I gave him a blank look and was about to push the door out, but he stopped me. My hands trembled a little, but I didn't open the door after all. He walked over, took my hand, and walked out.

I wanted to pull out my hand, but when I went out, I found that there were nearly ten palace maids standing outside. I didn't understand why, but I had to put my hand in his palm. I think what I have to do now is to believe in Chu Yi absolutely, only he can help me. It's a bit ridiculous, but it's true.

When I walked out of the courtyard, I realized that Chu Yi's courtyard was so close to the emperor's bedroom, and it seemed that the most dangerous place was the safest place, and there was indeed some truth!

Chu Yi walked very fast, and I was basically in a state of being dragged by him. Some distance away, I ran into someone I didn't want to see the most. Liu Yiyi saluted Chu Yi with a smile on her face, but I couldn't laugh at all. I knew that the palace maids behind me also had to salute Liu Yiyi, but I hid behind Chu Yi.

I want to be blind, but someone is chasing after me. "Yo, is this palace fierce and vicious? This girl, why did she hide behind when she saw this palace. ”

I haven't figured out how to answer, Chu Yi has already spoken: "Niangniang misunderstood!" This woman was originally in the palace of Concubine Qian, and yesterday the king fell in love at first sight, so he asked Concubine Qian to come. Presumably, she hasn't seen any nobles in the palace of the concubine, so she is a little timid. He pulled me to the front and stood side by side with him, when he suddenly approached me and said, "Maybe she was tired last night, and she hasn't recovered yet." ”

Liu Yiyi's expression changed instantly, "In this way, this woman is not suitable for this deep palace. Since you are out of the palace, it is your blessing, and it is best not to step into the palace! If you follow King Li, you will be prosperous and rich in the future, and your past friends can be left behind! But, people, you have to read the book, and you must not forget your original identity! Liu Yiyi said something in a low tone, and left swaggeringly after speaking.

Liu Yiyi's words seem to be teaching the palace maid as a concubine, but if I can't hear the words, I have known her for so many years. I was a little soft on my feet, but luckily someone helped me up.

Finally, I didn't think Chu Yi was walking fast, it was more like I was pulling him to trot, because I really wanted to get out of the palace now.
