In the late spring night, the wind is cool again. Lianyi followed Jinbei and saluted Chen Yu. The crown prince was not enough, so he asked Yu Ming to untie the sword and hang it on Lianyi's waist.

I have seen too much of this thing, and it is dangling on the soldiers, feeling normal, but I didn't expect it to be so heavy, and Lianyi feels that she has lost her balance.

The soldier who went to the next yard to ask for red dates, angelica, wolfberry, ginseng and hot fruit tea, came back with a clay pot, Chen Yu asked him to take a carbon basin and hang it on it to keep warm, and then, he didn't say anything.

Lianyi walked out of the house with Jin Bei, a soldier came over with a torch, Jin Bei and Lianyi one by one, seeing Wei Qi also approaching with a torch, a group of three walked out of the courtyard, feeling that Chen Yu's eyes had been following behind him.

They went out of the gate of the side courtyard, first along the courtyard to the east, walked not far, someone caught up, it was Huijiu, still holding half a piece of cake in his hand, as if he walked a few steps with them very casually, and said to Jin Bei, "Night patrol, don't go to the apricot blossom forest, there is bad luck over there." ”

Yu Ming and Hui Jiu followed the prince and were in the palace for a long time. The guard team led by Jin Bei, which is now called "concubines" by the people in the palace, has just come to the second night, and many things are still not quite understood. The apricot blossom forest is next to the East Palace, and it is also possible to patrol or not to patrol. Huijiu kindly reminded him, but he was quite warm-hearted.

"Understood." Jin Bei and Wei Qi smiled at Hui Jiu, who waved his hand and went back with a bite of the cake.

After walking a few more steps, before they reached the apricot blossom forest, the three of Lianyi met the forbidden army in the palace and greeted each other. Because they were all wearing armor, the other party did not treat Lianyi as a concubine, and greeted each other according to the military salute, the leader of the forbidden army exchanged information with Jin Bei, and chatted a few more words.

Lianyi felt quite embarrassed, because the forbidden soldiers of several squads she met in a row didn't say anything, and the look in her eyes looked like she had seen a lot of excitement.

The two of them were far away, and they could still be heard giggling and saying, "Concubine, hahahaha!" "Be quiet! Look back and get beaten! ”

The most difficult thing is that although this armor is much lighter and thinner than that on Jinbei's body, they just wore it to play and chat, and they didn't think it was anything, but when they walked around and patrolled carefully, the hoop was very heavy on their bodies. After a while, the sweat came out. There is it on the body, and there is it on the face. However, the oncoming willow wind was refreshing. It's hard to be a soldier.

Jin Bei took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat for Lianyi.

Wei Qi asked Lianyi: "What does Your Highness think about?" Don't speak? ”

"Can the night patrol speak?" Lianyi asked in surprise.

Jin Bei and Wei Qi both laughed, "Such a long night, such a big palace, such a boring errand, if you don't speak, are you going to suffocate people to death?" ”

"I see." Lianyi smiled shyly, feeling a burst of joy. At this moment, they had already bypassed the courtyard of the Chengrui Palace. The place behind the small palace gate.

The high swing and the tall calyx building are still lonely.

Jin Bei saw Lianyi looking at Caicao Tower, and then at the swing, with a blank look, and asked her: "The crown prince and His Royal Highness are alone in the house, what are you asking?" Do you blame you? ”

Lian Yi shook her head, "That's not true. It's just- asked me a few words, yes or no. “

Hearing Lianyi's answer, just as a gust of evening wind blew through the swing in the palace gate, Jin Bei felt cold. Are the two of them the crown prince and the prince's concubine - at least the future prince's concubine, what are they? Ask about other people's private words?

But Wei Qi didn't think so. After he was silent in Jinbei, he asked instead, "Why, you answered, the prince is not satisfied, right?" ”

"Who said that?"

"Who's going to say that? Are you willing to throw it out for a night patrol if you are satisfied? ”

Lianyi sighed sincerely, and before she could speak, Wei Qi was still making a big statement: "Why don't you understand? Being a side concubine is your best fate, if the prince suddenly kicks you out of the palace, who would dare to ask for it? I can only go to the lotus nunnery behind the Huguo Temple to be a nun! And your Xu family, including your two younger brothers, is all over, don't count on it. An eldest lady eloped, and a third lady was chased. ”

"Don't scare people, don't crow's mouth." Jin Bei interrupted him.

Wei Qi ignored him, "So serving the prince well is your wisest choice." You may not understand the heart of a man, tell the minister what you said, and give you ideas. ”

Lianyi looked at Jin Bei, but Jin Bei didn't speak.

Lianyi sighed again and said what Chen Yu asked her, "Ye asked me if I don't know what he was busy with in the afternoon, I thought, he is finding fault, how do I know?" ”

"So you didn't answer?" This is what Jin Bei asked.

"How dare you! Did I eat bear's heart leopard gall? I'll tell you what I know. I heard that Ye Gang was arranged by the emperor to be the captain of the Purple Guard. ”

"What?"

This is what Wei Qi and Jin Bei exclaimed together.

Lian Yileng was in the night, and suddenly understood one thing - the emperor's arrangement, few people knew.

Wei Qi was the first to ask, "So, what you heard is right?" The prince didn't deny it? ”

"Nope."

"Then Your Highness, who did you listen to? When you were in the cold palace, when the minister was away, who else did you meet? ”

Wei Qi is really a goblin, and he stopped Lianyi at once.

Wei Qi's mind turned fast, under the strict monitoring of the concubines, if Lian Yi had seen someone in private, it would only be in the cold palace.

Jin Bei said coldly, "Who is it?" ”

Of course, Lianyi couldn't answer. At this time, all three of them sensed a beam of gaze and interrupted their topic.

Looking up, I don't know when the princess Ye was accompanied by several eunuch palace daughters and standing upstairs, like a fairy Bodhisattva, shining brightly.

What is she looking at?

What was she thinking?

At this moment, she looked at the three of Lianyi.

The three of them hurriedly saluted, fell silent, and continued to patrol the night.

Of course, Jin Bei and Wei Qi felt Lianyi's resistance to their question, so they didn't continue to ask, but continued to walk the second lap along the route just now. After passing through the apricot blossom forest, the pink and white flowers are at their best, but some of the branches are already hanging young leaves. When the leaves grow, the flowers will be gone.

In a trance, there seemed to be the sound of wind lingering around the apricot blossom tree, and there seemed to be a little ghost fire floating by.

But, maybe it's just flying insects.

Lianyi couldn't stand the silence and took the initiative to bring up the topic, "Can we really go to see Manzhu?" ”

"Let's wait a minute." Jin Bei said.

They didn't speak again, and after going around for a long time, they came to the bottom of the calyx again.

The three of them were slightly taken aback, because they saw the shadow of the crown prince.

The crown prince and the crown princess are husband and wife, standing together.

The dangerous building is 100 feet high, and the upper floor is the starry sky.

Lianyi was suddenly pulled by Jin Bei under the wall of the building on the side.

"Shhhhh

Wei Qi was on the side, and he seemed a little surprised by the scene of Jinbei being so close to Lianyi.

Lian Yi pushed him away, "What does the golden guard want to say?" ”

"Let's walk over in a moment, and you pretend that you just saw the prince. Then go upstairs to find him. ”

"Huh?"

"What's surprising? The prince is in a bad mood, if he stands there all night, how can we go to the cold palace? You go up and say a few nice words, and the two subordinates will also cooperate with you, at least coax the prince to sleep first. Got it? ”

Jin Bei saw that Lianyi was still confused, and stepped up his persuasion, "You don't understand, men sometimes need women to take the initiative and be aggressive, you who were originally patrolling the night, when you saw him, you decided to go upstairs to find him, you will definitely be able to catch him off guard, he must be happy." When the time comes, you will see my face and act, and say everything with tenderness like water. You know? ”

Wei Qi nodded in agreement beside him, as if Jin Bei was talking about the world's reason.

Jin Shouwei taught himself to seduce men, and he saw the hell.

Lian Yi was muttering in her heart, and was pushed out by Jin Bei again, facing Chen Yu's gaze upstairs.
