Chapter 12: Night's Dream
When he opened his eyes again, Xiao Chuxin was no longer in front of him a blue Doucheng sky, but a dim light and a damp prison. She tried to move her hands, but there were heavy shackles tied around her wrists; I wanted to turn around and look at the structure of the lock, but it turned out that the legs were also tied to the wall. The palace clothes on his body were replaced with shabby Zongrenfu costumes.
What is the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it is clearly a shemale who abuses his power! Xiao Chuxin thought. It's a pity that she was locked up in the cage of the Zongren Mansion in the depths of Dou City at this time, and there was no way to find Zisang Yanyang. Why did I cross over so inexplicably? Since you can travel back, you can always go back, right?
Thinking about it, Xiao Chuxin's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she fell asleep.
In the dream, there was a maid in palace clothes, and she and Mo Xiaotang stood together. They walked forward as they spoke, but Xiao Chuxin kept appearing as a bystander in her dream, unable to move her perspective or hear what they were saying. However, according to Xiao Chuxin's analysis, the woman next to Mo Xiaotang should be the original owner of Nangong Chumeng.
When the two of them first entered the palace, Mo Xiaotang once offended a nobleman, but later the nobleman wantonly murdered Ning Xiyu and ended up with a "death is not a pity". Xiao Chuxin didn't know this. The noble man sent Mo Xiaotang to the Zongren Mansion, and he was about to overstep the palace etiquette and carry out the cane punishment, but this matter was passed on to the queen.
Gu Sheng was furious, saying that Ning Xiyu's discipline was not strict, and he actually let the woman who lived in the Scarlet Yao Palace so ignorant of the court etiquette and the severity of the rewards and punishments (but he didn't do anything to Ning Xiyu). So he degraded the noble man as a talented person, and he spent two months.
Since then, Gu Sheng has accepted Mo Xiaotang as a maid of Weiyang Palace and loves her very much. Mo Xiaotang is also the luckiest of the many palace maids, thanks to Gu Sheng's broad-mindedness, otherwise it would be difficult to come out if he entered the Zongren Mansion. Mo Xiaotang also had to thank Gu Sheng for knowing the etiquette of the court, otherwise she would have died tragically in the Zongren Mansion.
"Nangong, wake up!"
A magnetic, familiar voice appeared in Xiao Chuxin's ears again. It was Du Mochai, he shook Xiao Chuxin gently, and behind him stood Zisang Yanyang and Mo Xiaotang, who frowned.
"Your Majesty, Nangong is awake."
"I'm tired of you, the emperor has already taught Zhu Xuyao a lesson." Mo Xiaotang's hand was tightly held by the emperor and said cautiously. The paleness of her lips at this time could not be covered by lip grease, her hair was all curled because of cold sweat, and the bun on her head was a little scattered, unable to bear the golden hairpin, and was crumbling.
"Well, Zhu Xuyao still wants to promote him to be the big supervisor, I really see the wrong person. Nangong, you will also be careful in the palace in the future, I am entangled in official affairs, and I may not be able to protect you. Hey, Mo Chang is here, the hairpin is about to fall off......" Zi Sang Yanyang said as he used his other hand to straighten the golden hairpin for Mo Xiaotang. Mo Xiaotang was a little shy, his cheeks were slightly red, so pitiful.
Only Du Mochai found that Xiao Chuxin was still restrained by iron shackles, he drew his knife, turned around and said, "Master, please avoid it." Zisang Yanyang took Mo Xiaotang to stand back. Du Mochai's hand fell, and the iron shackles fell to the ground in response, making a "bang" sound of hitting the ground. He swung down again, and the shackles were shattered, not hurting Xiao Chuxin in the slightest.
Zisang Yanyang's eyes showed a little appreciation: "The guards are good at swordsmanship." ”
Du Mochai put the knife back into the sheath: "The emperor is really humiliating. Although this knife has been sharpened for more than ten years, it is still not sharp enough. ”
"Well, very professional. How old is it? ”
"Back to the emperor, there are four out of twenty lowly positions."
"Not bad age, but it's more dangerous around me, and young people are not suitable for it. If you want, come and guard me closely! ”
"Your Majesty."
