Li Jiujiu said: "Mama, do you think Biluo needs to marry a maid?" ”

Mrs. Liu has heard some about Chifu. She thought about it, shook her head, and said, "Niangniang, the slave maid thinks it's not necessary. However, you can ask Biluo, it is better for her to decide this matter. ”

Li Jiujiu felt that what she said made sense and nodded.

The maid refused. She thinks that she is a maid, how can there be a reason for a maid to marry and bring a maid to marry? I don't need to be served by others.

It's night.

I can't fall asleep after tossing and turning for a long time, and my mood is very complicated. She was happy for Biluo. In addition to happiness, there is also envy.

Yun Chuhan's appearance came to mind. Li Jiujiu shook his head vigorously, thinking to himself, he is not.

Lijiujiu rolled over and thought of a question that upset her even more. If she wants to be the queen, then she has to be with Yun Chuhan for the rest of her life.

Then when I become the queen mother, will I be able to find little fresh meat casually. Suddenly such a thought came to him, and he couldn't help but pat his face lightly.

Mrs. Liu was taken aback and quickly sat up to take a look.

"Mother, what's wrong?"

Li Jiujiu hurriedly said: "It's okay, I thought there was a bug, I read it wrong!" ”

After speaking, he turned over for a long time, a little weak.

How can there be such a thought! Is it bad to have money and power, men or something, I don't need it!

I covered my head with a quilt for a long time, wanting to end thinking about this issue.

The mood gradually calmed down. Li Jiujiu lifted the quilt and exposed his head.

I can't heal the scar and forget the pain. Didn't I swear to let those who despise the true long-lost fall to their knees at my feet? Although, those people don't owe me. However, they owe it for a long time.

Thinking like this, I was completely calm down after a long time. While there is still a period of time before the Chinese New Year, there are still a few days to be free around, so let's just think about the dowry of Biluo first.

Chifu.

Chi Cheng lay down. He closed his eyes and remained motionless.

After a long time, Chi Cheng suddenly opened his eyes. He frowned and sat up sharply.

Normally, Chi Cheng would fall asleep soon after lying down. However, he has always developed a habit of waking up at the slightest movement.

The people in Chifu knew it, so they knew that he was asleep, and everyone else went back to rest, nothing happened, and he wouldn't walk around in the yard.

However, Chi Cheng lay down for a long time, but he didn't fall asleep. Moreover, he is not sleepy at all.

Chi Cheng's heart was like a stone pressed against him, making him unable to relax. He simply sat up and walked to the window.

Opening the window, a gust of wind blew in, carrying the chill of the wax moon in the depths of winter.

Let's go tomorrow. Thinking so, Chi Cheng closed the window.

Following.

Peony Pavilion.

Mrs. Liu walked in and saw that Bi Luo was grinding for a long time, so she walked over and whispered, "Bi Luo, someone is looking for you, it's over there." ”

After speaking, Mrs. Liu pointed in the direction of the back garden.

Bi Luo looked puzzled: "Who?" ”

"You'll know when you go?" After speaking, Mrs. Liu snatched the things from Biluo's hand, and then pushed her out of the door.

"Who? Could it be Jinse? Or Mama Zhou? Bi Luo walked out and muttered to herself, after all, even if she was a person in the palace, she didn't know much about it.

Li Jiujiu looked at Mrs. Liu curiously and asked, "It can't be Chicheng, right?" ”

"Mother's smart." Mrs. Liu said with a smile.

What did he come to do? I thought to myself for a long time, but I didn't ask. After all, Mrs. Liu doesn't necessarily know anything. Maybe Chi Cheng has something to whisper to Biluo.

Biluo came all the way to the back garden, looking left and right, but there was no one to see.

"The back garden is so big, why didn't I ask where it is, it's so stupid!" Biluo was talking to herself as she gently tapped her head.

"Since you know you're stupid, don't knock. If you knock again, you will not be stupid, but stupid. ”

Suddenly there was Chi Cheng's voice behind him, and Bi Luo was startled. As soon as he turned around, Chi Cheng took her by the arm and dragged her behind the rockery.

"You let go, men and women don't kiss!" Biluo struggled.

Chi Cheng let go of his hand, looked at Bi Luo seriously, and whispered, "Bi Luo, I have something to tell you." ”

Seeing Chi Cheng going like this, Bi Luo also quieted down.

Chi Cheng continued, "I think it's better to tell you these things before I come to the palace to give a dowry. Because what's at stake is high, you have a choice. ”

Hearing Chi Cheng say this, Bi Luo was a little nervous.

Ji Cheng poked out to make sure that no one was there, and then began to tell Bi Luo about his past.

Biluo listened carefully.

Ji Cheng finished speaking, and then looked at Biluo.

Bi Luo smiled slightly: "I can accept what you say." ”

Chi Cheng sighed, he was worried that Bi Luo didn't understand the stakes, so he said, "Although the odds are small, it's not completely impossible. ”

"I'm willing to bet. I guess I'm going to win, and I'm not going to be so unlucky and have that kind of small odds. You can teach me martial arts. If there is such a day, I will not be a burden to you. Bi Luo looked at Chi Cheng very firmly.

Chi Cheng didn't speak, just silently stretched out his hand and took Bi Luo's hand.

This time, Biluo did not hide.

For so many years, he didn't meet the girl he loved. Unexpectedly, it turned out that this girl who made her heart flutter was in the Chu Palace.

She does not have a peerless appearance, nor a noble background, nor does she have an extraordinary temperament. But he unexpectedly walked into Chi Cheng's heart.

Biluo's face was red, and he looked at Chi Cheng a little nervously.

***

Chaoyang Palace.

Yan An hurriedly walked in: "You all go down." I'll just serve here. ”

The maids saluted and withdrew.

"Niangniang, Chunxue sent a message that the queen's headache has occurred again." Lichun said in a low voice.

Hearing Yan An say this, Concubine De breathed a long sigh of relief: "Finally, we can stop for some time." Her headache will not be cured without ten days and a half months. ”

Yan An smiled and said, "Niangniang, it's almost the end of the year." The queen is sick, and the mother is busy with rumors. ”

"It doesn't matter if it's written. Yan'an, is that Fluttershy still not saying anything? Concubine De asked.

The smile on Yan An's face disappeared, and she shook her head helplessly.

"Salute first, then soldier. This palace has given her time to eat and drink and wait. What about Su Quan? Concubine rubbed her temples, and Fluttershy gave her a slight headache.

Su Quan was the chief eunuch of Chaoyang Palace. In the years when Concubine De pretended to be sick, he was one of the few eunuchs left in Chaoyang Palace. has always been conscientious and conscientious, and Concubine De trusts him very much.

"I just went to the Internal Affairs Office to get some things. This time I will be back, I should be back soon. Yan An said.

Concubine De nodded.

Not long after, Su Quan came back.

"Niangniang, the servant came back with some silver charcoal from the Internal Affairs Office. The people in the Internal Affairs Office said that there are not many silver silk charcoals this year, and they are all close to the Queen's Palace and our Chaoyang Palace. ”

Concubine De smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if it's almost charcoal, as long as you don't choke people." ”

Su Quan smiled and said, "Niangniang has a good heart, so His Royal Highness the King of Chu is deeply blessed. ”

Concubine De sighed and said, "It's not easy. ”

"Mother, what about that Fluttershy?" Yan An asked.

Concubine De's gaze suddenly took on a little coldness: "Su Quan, you don't have to be polite to her anymore." Do whatever you want, whatever you want. If you accidentally die, this palace will not blame. This Fluttershy eats inside and out. You tell her that if you tell the truth, this palace will not only spare her life, but will also send her away to a safe place. ”

"Yes, mother, the slave is going!" Su Quan said.

Concubine De doesn't want to torture Fluttershy. However, Fluttershy insists that she was instructed by Yun Muqing.

Yun Chuhan believed it, but Concubine De didn't believe it. For one, she trusted her instincts, and she felt that it was not that simple. Second, the dodge in Fluttershy's gaze convinces her that she must be lying.

Yun Muqing and Yun Chuhan are fighting in secret, which is something that everyone knows. Others may not secretly plan, wanting to pull Yun Chuhan off the horse, and then splash dirty water on Yun Muqing. The so-called killing two birds with one stone.

In the secret room, Fluttershy is sitting on the bed with a saucer of mung bean cake on her lap.

A few candles illuminate the otherwise dark chamber. There is a bed in the secret room, with a table and two chairs. The bedding and pillows on the bed, although not new, were clean.

The walls of the chamber are thick stone bricks, which look stronger than the dungeon.

Fluttershy eats mung bean cake leisurely, looking nothing like a captive person.

At this moment, the door of the secret room opened, and Su Quan walked in, followed by two eunuchs.

Fluttershy doesn't care, because she's been so comfortable here these days. Those who come in are either giving food or drink. Even Concubine De only asked a few words, and she wouldn't do anything to her.

The door to the chamber was closed. Su Quan looks at Fluttershy coldly. The two eunuchs behind him, Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Fuzi, were holding something in their hands.

Suquan walks over and knocks off the saucer that Fluttershy has placed on her lap.

The saucer fell to the ground and broke in half. The mung bean cake inside is scattered on the ground.

"What are you doing!" Fluttershy jerks to her feet and glares at Su Quan angrily, completely forgetting that she is a prisoner.

Su Quan smiled coldly, and the murderous aura in his eyes made Fluttershy's anger extinguish at once. She felt uneasy and felt that something bad was going to happen.

"Put it down." Su Quan said.

Xiao Zhuozi and Xiao Fuzi put the things in their hands on the table.

Seeing those things, Fluttershy's legs go limp. She made it to the bed.

I saw tongs, whips, ropes, chains, a basin of water and a small jar on the table.

These are the things that Fluttershy had seen since she was a child, and she was with Shizi. They are all relatively simple and common torture instruments. As for the basin of water, it was supposed to be used to wake up the fainting man. As for the little jar, I couldn't tell what was inside. Fluttershy thinks it might be a needle or something.

However, Fluttershy guesses wrong, and the salt is in it.

Su Quan looked at Fluttershy's frightened face and waved his hand.

Fluttershy and Fuzi walk over to Fluttershy with a rope.
