At the mention of Chu Yunshen, Zhu Rong's brows inevitably wrinkled, and her tone became a little more solemn without her realizing it.

"What's the matter? Why didn't he tell me in advance? ”

Cheng Xiaoxiao really didn't ask a lot of aggressive questions, but got used to the way she got along with Chu Yunshen.

Chu Yunshen usually told her anything in advance, just because she was afraid that she would run around by herself and something else would happen.

"This time, it's probably too late for the Lord to come up and inform you......"

Zhu Rong's face was a few points worse than just now, and she pursed her lips and fell into her own contemplation.

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at Zhu Rong's appearance, where else could there be something she didn't know.

"But something happened to your master? Because of Chu Jingshuo? ”

Cheng Xiaoxiao also withdrew the indifference on her face, put down the teacup in her hand, and stared at Zhu Rong's eyes seriously and refused to take her eyes off.

"The Lord has nothing to do, but it is not peaceful in this palace now, and tomorrow except for me, other secret guards will not be able to appear......"

Zhu Rong has become more accustomed to talking to Cheng Xiaoxiao in the past few days, and even more so after Chu Yunshen acquiesced to the two of them.

So now Cheng Xiaoxiao just asked a few words, and Zhu Rong couldn't help but reveal a little to Cheng Xiaoxiao.

But after finishing speaking, looking at Zhu Rong's appearance, she knew that she was very remorseful, otherwise she wouldn't have avoided her eyes and didn't dare to look at Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Cheng Xiaoxiao kept chasing Zhu Rong's gaze, but she refused to avoid it.

"Rongrong, you tell me the truth, what did you mean just now? Why is this palace not peaceful, and why does Chu Yunshen need your protection? ”

Cheng Xiaoxiao stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Rong's hand, and shook Zhu Rong's arm coquettishly: "Isn't Chu Yunshen coming to the family banquet tomorrow?" Why are you so dangerous? ”

Zhu Rong knew that she had lost her words for a while just now, but now that she wants to hide the past, with Cheng Xiaoxiao's character of breaking the casserole and asking to the end, it must be an impossible task.

"If you don't tell me, I won't leave the palace, I want to listen to Chu Yunshen explain to me by himself! Otherwise, I won't go! ”

Cheng Xiaoxiao pretended to be angry and let go of Zhu Rong's hand, and turned her face sideways with a dissatisfied expression.

"You have to think about it, now that I don't leave the palace, you can't forcibly take me out, how are you going to explain to Chu Yunshen when the time comes?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao pouted, pretending to be unreasonable and barbaric, like the eldest lady who was used to being arrogant.

Zhu Rong didn't know that Cheng Xiaoxiao was pretending, but she knew Cheng Xiaoxiao's character very well.

Cheng Xiaoxiao will not change what she has decided, if she doesn't tell Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao may not embarrass her, but she will definitely find a way to figure out the reason for the matter on the way out of the palace.

She clearly remembered the precautions written on a piece of paper by Chu Yunshen, one of which was that she must not give Cheng Xiaoxiao a chance to run around by herself, and take Cheng Xiaoxiao back safe and sound under this premise.

Later, it's not that she has been with Cheng Xiaoxiao, Songtao's elm head and Xiao Wu are like brothers, she doesn't believe that he can handle Cheng Xiaoxiao.

You can't use force against Cheng Xiaoxiao, then the Lord will definitely punish them heavily.

Even if the Lord didn't find out, she couldn't have allowed such a thing to happen.

It can be said that Cheng Xiaoxiao grasped Zhu Rong's current situation, she proudly crossed Erlang's legs, and casually slapped her thighs with her hands, looking not in a hurry at all.

She just waited for Zhu Rong to compromise with her, even if she continued to delay, she Cheng Xiaoxiao was not afraid.

Anyway, she is not in a hurry, it is Chu Yunshen who is anxious to get her out of the palace.

Seeing Zhu Rong's helpless appearance, she knew that she was about to wait.

Sure enough, but after a moment, Zhu Rong finally opened his mouth to Cheng Xiaoxiao hesitantly:

"Then let me tell you, can you promise to come out of the palace with me obediently?"

Why are you so afraid that I won't leave the palace?

There are some demons and monsters in this palace that want to keep urging me like this.

Before she said that she wanted to come back to the palace, Chu Yunshen didn't say no.

There's definitely something going on here!

That little clever ghost Cheng Xiaoxiao naturally couldn't readily agree!

She pretended to have a cold face, glanced coldly at Zhu Rong who was still tangled on the side, and slowly spoke:

"Listen to it first, in case you don't tell the truth."

Zhu Rong was angry and funny, she nodded at Cheng Xiaoxiao's head, and had to lower her voice and tell the story.

At the end of the feast, she saw Songtao again on the way back, and this time Songtao did not give her a secret message, but made a strange gesture.

Others must not be able to understand that gesture, but Zhu Rong knew very well, it was the code between their secret guards.

The meaning is not difficult, you can do it.

Originally, as soon as this gesture came out, it meant that the Dark Guard's mission was about to end.

But Zhu Rong's heart was indescribable, so he had to follow Chu Yunshen's arrangement.

can do it, which means that she wants to confess to Chu Hongzhen.

At the same time, it also shows that that person is really going to do it.

After Cheng Xiaoxiao listened to Zhu Rong's story, she slapped it directly on the table, saying that she would not leave the palace with Zhu Rong again.

Both of them knew that it would be such a situation, and looking at Zhu Rong's sighing appearance, Cheng Xiaoxiao was also a little weak-hearted.

She looked at Zhu Rong with a smile, and went to hold Zhu Rong's hand again:

"Rongrong, don't worry, it's okay if I don't go out of the palace with you. When the time comes, I will explain to your lord myself, and I will definitely not let you take the blame for me. ”

"You know I didn't mean that."

Looking back at Cheng Xiaoxiao worriedly, Zhu Rong couldn't help but sigh again.

Seeing that Zhu Rong is a cold beauty, for her Cheng Xiaoxiao is now sighing for a long time, and she is about to become a gloomy Sister Lin.

Cheng Xiaoxiao hurriedly resumed the teasing appearance of her hippie smile, and stretched out a hand to pick up Zhu Rong's chin:

"Rong Rong big beauty, give Ye a smile?"

Knowing that the joke couldn't be too much, she also told Zhu Rong earnestly after putting down her hand:

"I know that you and Chu Yunshen are worried about my safety, but it is impossible for me to leave the palace at this time. My good friends are all in the palace, and Chu Yunshen is also here, how can I hide out alone? ”

"What are you hiding? Who's going to hide? ”

As soon as Cheng Xiaoxiao's words were finished, before Zhu Rong could react, Chu Hongyi's voice sounded outside the door.

It's also strange that Zhu Rong was so involved just now, completely immersed in dealing with Cheng Xiaoxiao's emotions, and didn't hear Chu Hongyi's footsteps outside the door at all.

She also knew that Cheng Xiaoxiao and Chu Hongyi had a good relationship, so she didn't show any overreaction.

However, after Chu Hongyi was let in by Cheng Xiaoxiao, he was shocked when he saw Zhu Rong also sitting at the table.

"Let's sit together."

With Chu Hongyi here, Zhu Rong and Cheng Xiaoxiao are not good at discussing what happened just now.

Zhu Rong even chatted casually, and then left Cheng Xiaoxiao's room under the pretext of excuse.

Before leaving, Zhu Rong told Cheng Xiaoxiao that she would come to Cheng Xiaoxiao later, but was prevaricated by Cheng Xiaoxiao.

"Xiaoxiao, why is she coming to you later? What can't we say right now? ”

Learning from Cheng Xiaoxiao's usual gossip, Chu Hongyi asked curiously with a pair of eyes that were better looking than ordinary women.

"Nothing, why are you here?"

Cheng Xiaoxiao didn't want to say anything, because she didn't even bother to make excuses for what she had just discussed.

Chu Hongyi also mentioned it casually, and when Cheng Xiaoxiao said this, he immediately forgot about Zhu Rong to the clouds, and he revealed a mouthful of big white teeth and said mysteriously to Cheng Xiaoxiao:

"Xiaoxiao, guess who I saw just now?"

Afraid that Cheng Xiaoxiao would feel impatient, Chu Hongyi immediately answered by himself very measuredly: "It's the fourth brother!" I saw the fourth brother go to the imperial study to find his father, and the fourth brother seems to have always come to the imperial study in the past two days. ”

As soon as she heard that Chu Yunshen was coming, Cheng Xiaoxiao hurriedly rushed to the dresser in the room with an arrow step, and began to scratch her head and gesture at the unclear bronze mirror.

"Xiaoxiao, what are you doing? Didn't you ask my fourth brother why he didn't come to the Splendid Hall to see us? Let's go and peek at him now! ”

Looking at Cheng Xiaoxiao's overly bewitching movements for some reason, Chu Hongyi didn't understand what Cheng Xiaoxiao was doing for a while.

"Go, go, go! Let's go! ”

Cheng Xiaoxiao looked at herself with satisfaction who was not clear in the bronze mirror, and dealt with Chu Hongyi without looking back.

"But I'm going, you can't go!"

finally got up from the dresser, but unfortunately Cheng Xiaoxiao told Chu Hongyi such a cruel sentence as soon as he walked in front of Chu Hongyi.

"Why?"

Chu Hongyi looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao aggrievedly, looking pitifully like some kind of large dog.

Cheng Xiaoxiao almost relented and agreed to Chu Hongyi for a while, but thinking that she was going to talk to Chu Yunshen about business, she had to grit her teeth and pretend to be fierce:

"If I say no, I don't want to!"

The light in Chu Hongyi's eyes dimmed instantly, he sat down at the table with his head down, and only whispered 'um' to Cheng Xiaoxiao, and did not continue to ask.

Cheng Xiaoxiao thought about it and walked towards the door, and when she was about to walk to the door, she suddenly turned around and smiled at Chu Hongyi:

"Chu Hongyi, I prepared a birthday gift for you, which is hidden in my closet. I originally wanted to tell you when I left today, but now it's cheap for you, I won't leave tonight, I'll eat with you. ”

After speaking, no matter what Chu Hongyi's reaction was, she strode towards the imperial study without looking back.

Leaving Chu Hongyi alone in her room, when he opened the closet and saw a strangely shaped white circle, he fell into infinite contemplation again.

He heard Cheng Xiaoxiao say that he would not return to Jingwangfu today, so he was naturally happy.

But Cheng Xiaoxiao also said that she wanted to eat together, what to eat?

Could it be the round thing he was holding in his hand?

It smelled very sweet, but it was something he had never eaten before, so there would be no problem......

Cheng Xiaoxiao was already about to walk to the imperial study, otherwise if she knew Chu Hongyi's thoughts, she would definitely be able to vomit a mouthful of old blood.

and will also beat Chu Hongyi violently, and kick it twice after the beating.

What 'round weirdness'?

That's the cake she had made yesterday after secretly working all night in the Imperial Dining Room!

You must know that not only is there no one in the imperial dining room at night, but there is not even a ghost left.

Or is she begging Ruhan for help, so that she can be regarded as someone to accompany her.

The method used is also the lazy version of the rice cooker cake that she saw a hundred and eight years ago, and saw it on Douyin.

There was nothing in this ancient world, she whipped the egg whites manually, and there was no oven to steam the cake base.

She and Ruhan didn't dare to light all the candles, for fear of attracting guards or others.

It's not easy to succeed in the first place, and it's even harder to do it in the dark.

Fortunately, the failures were not wasted, and they were all eaten by herself.

Finally, when the sky was slightly bright, I managed to make a cake that looked quite like that.
