Chapter 33: The Eunuchs of the Palace
The emperor was silent and didn't speak, and the crown prince saluted Lu Yuanbai again: "The last time I saw that girl in this palace, I thought it was very eye-catching, and now I have such an opportunity, nothing else, I wonder if Uncle Huang can let me see her?"
Lu Yuanbai knew his intentions and deliberately misinterpreted: "If the prince wants to marry a wife and take a concubine, the emperor will naturally not stop him, but you shouldn't look at the person of this king." ”
In the last few words, he bit the accent, and the warning meaning was obvious.
The crown prince frowned, and said: "My nephew doesn't have this intention, it's just rumored that this person is Miss Chu San, and the imperial uncle might as well let the protector meet him, so as not to provoke criticism." ”
"It seems that today, it is not possible for this king not to let her show up. Seeing Lu Yuanbai nodding, a few guards immediately walked towards the gate of the palace.
Chi Yingchu got down from the carriage and followed the little eunuch on the gravel road: "There is only one more way to go, Miss Chi don't lose it." ”
She pursed her lips and didn't respond, even Zhong Jingsong didn't know her true identity, it was impossible to call her name, let alone find someone to introduce.
So how did the little eunuch know her name?
The road that the little eunuch took her on became more and more secluded and uninhabited, and Chi Yingchu had also been to the palace a few times in her previous life, and she didn't remember the road in the palace very clearly, but she didn't forget it to this extent.
Sensing that something was wrong, she stopped and smiled, "I'm sorry, I remember that there are still some things that I didn't take in the carriage, and you can wait for me here, and I will be back in less than a quarter of an hour." ”
She turned to leave, and the little eunuch looked at her back, his originally gentle eyes became fierce, and he took a few steps forward and grabbed her shoulders from behind.
Chi Yingchu's face was cold, and he quickly picked off the hairpin on his head and stabbed it at the little eunuch's neck as a sharp weapon, and the little eunuch retreated one after another.
Just after fighting him, she knew that she was not his opponent, this person had deep internal strength, not like an ordinary eunuch, and maybe even a fake eunuch.
She lifted the hem of her skirt and ran, shouting loudly: "Someone, someone's assassinating!"
When the guards arrived at the palace gate and did not find anyone, they were still puzzled, but when they heard someone calling for help on the other road, they were trained to carry a saber over.
Seeing this, the little eunuch flew away, and Chi Yingchu grabbed one of the guards casually, looking excited: "You are here to find me, right? That is a great rebel assassin, he forced me to assassinate the emperor!"
When several guards heard this, they chased after him with serious faces, and Chi Yingchu smiled triumphantly, turned his head and walked in the opposite direction.
The palace is really a dangerous place, and when she walked into the palace gate, some people couldn't wait to kill her, I was afraid that before she could see the emperor, her life would be gone.
Since it's not Zhong Jingsong looking for her, then whoever they love to fight will fight, anyway, she is missing today, and she has to go back to avoid the limelight.
After half a pillar of incense, not only did the guards not catch up with the little eunuch, but even Chi Yingchu couldn't find the same place, and was scolded a lot after going back.
"If the royal brother is okay, then the courtier brother will leave. Lu Yuanbai said so, and the emperor had no reason to keep him anymore, so he could only nod and acquiesce.
As soon as he went to court, the prince watched him leave unwillingly, and the Protector hurriedly walked over, wanting to ask for some clues from Lu Yuanbai, of course, the latter would not tell the truth.
Zhong Jingsong felt that something was strange today, but there was no evidence to identify Lu Yuanbai, so he decided to find Chi Yingchu to come out in private.
"Come with me to the study!" the emperor whispered to the prince, who seemed to be able to think of what was going to happen next, and followed with mixed feelings.
As soon as the door of the study closed, the emperor's voice was mixed with annoyance: "I asked you to do things, but you did things like this!"
"My father was angry. The prince knelt down in terror.
The emperor's face did not improve in the slightest, and a teacup of anger smashed over, falling to the ground and shattering: "Don't you have anything else to say except this sentence?"
The crown prince was silent, and the emperor scolded him to leave.
The first thing Lu Yuanbai did when he returned to the house was to ask Chi Yingchu: "Has she ever gone out of Chu Tongfang?"
A few people at the gate of the palace were puzzled, didn't the prince let Chu Yimiao out?
The subordinate did not dare to take responsibility, so he had to say: "No." ”
Lu Yuanbai nodded and didn't speak, he was busy in the study all morning, and when it was time for lunch, he first said to his subordinates: "Go find Zhao Lique, this king will send her to eat today." ”
The subordinate did as he said, but when Zhao Lique came over with joy, he smiled again: "Chu Tongfang said that she was unwell, let this king go and take a look." ”
Zhao Lique was angry and annoyed when he heard this, this Chu Yimiao was uncomfortable in the morning and uncomfortable in the evening, but at this time, this is not good for seeing her?
She was unwilling, so she grabbed Lu Yuanbai and said: "But it is clear that the prince found me first, she should find a doctor if she is unwell, what should she do with the prince?"
Lu Yuanbai still chuckled and brushed her hand away: "It turns out that you also know that you also liked to use this trick in the past?"
Zhao Lique was seen through by him, his face was embarrassed for a while, he was speechless, and he stomped his feet angrily.
Lu Yuanbai threw his back to her: "Now this king still has some thoughts about her, you must not give her hardship, and you must not let her be so busy that she has no time to dop." ”
Zhao Lique didn't hear the deep meaning of these words, the more the prince protected her like this, the more unbalanced her heart became, Chu Yimiao, a subordinate in the room, why did she have such treatment?
Chi Yingchu bit his chopsticks and thought, the little eunuch in the palace was obviously weird, as long as he could be found, today's matter would definitely solve the mystery.
But she couldn't find the way to enter the palace now, and she was thinking about it, and she didn't even notice that Lu Yuanbai walked up to her, and as soon as he slapped her hand, she was so frightened that her chopsticks fell to the ground.
"This king doesn't use much force, you look like this, it seems that this king bullied you. ”
"How come?" Chi Yingchu gritted her teeth and smiled, thinking to herself that this dog prince was not bullying her one day?
"Why did the prince come here suddenly?"
"This is the king's place, and the king can go wherever he wants, and everything in the house belongs to the king. Lu Yuanbai's words were direct and domineering, and Chi Yingchu sounded very harsh.
I was already in a bad mood, but when I saw him now, I was in an even worse mood.
"Actually, this king has something, I really want to tell you, I am afraid that you will misunderstand this king, not to mention that this king will not go in his heart. ”
Chi Yingchu smiled hypocritically: "The prince might as well say it directly, I am very generous." ”
"Last time, you settled the account and found the wrong person, and it was not Zhao Lique who transferred Yujue, but this king. ”
As soon as these words came out, Chi Yingchu's hand subconsciously climbed up to his neck, this girl is too bullying!
"Then what are you going to tell me to do?" She was already angry about this, but as soon as he said it, she remembered it, and she could faint as soon as her angry eyes were closed.
Lu Yuanbai lowered his gaze, his eyes were cold: "Do you still say that you don't want to kill me?" You stole this king's things, and this king naturally deserves to take them back." ”
Chi Yingchu felt shameless but he was ashamed, and the movement in his hand changed to the action of pinching his shoulder: "What the prince said is very true, do you think my strength is okay?"
"Hmm. The corners of Lu Yuanbai's mouth hooked, "Don't worry, I have time for you to play tonight." ”
"I'll ...... tonight," she wouldn't fail to hear his voice.
"How long has it been since this king stayed with you?" Lu Yuanbai held her white and tender wrist.
