This small boat was Zhang Yue, the commander of Jinyiwei, with a few Jinyiwei, patrolling near the dragon boat, but he didn't expect to encounter someone drowning.

The Lord Zhang who took the lead in jumping into the water was Zhang Yue, he was the youngest son of Zhang Yu, the king of Hejian, and the younger brother of Zhang Guifei.

The Jinyi guards who jumped into the water after him all went to the water to ventilate, and Zhang Yue had not yet surfaced.

Now even the people on the dragon boat know that someone has fallen overboard.

"Who fell into the water so accidentally?" Zhu Gaochi asked.

Fucheng, who was standing behind the prince and Zhang Guifei, replied: "I don't know who fell into the water, but it was Zhang Yue and Zhang who went into the water to save people." ”

Zhu Zhanji walked to the window and looked, sure enough, several brocade guards were in the water, pushing a girl onto the water platform.

The color of the garment...... How is it familiar?

"It's buckwheat that falls into the water! He also said that he couldn't find her, so he must have gone to the opposite side to feed the swans. ”

Zhu Zhanji shouted, turned around and got off the dragon boat with Xiao Zhong, asked for a small boat, and rowed to the opposite bank. When he jumped ashore, Zhang Yue was squeezing a mouthful of water out of her stomach, Hua Qiao spit water in her mouth, hummed, and slowly opened her eyes.

"Buckwheat! How are you? Zhu Zhanji put a piece of clothing on her body.

Hua Qiao's face turned pale, and he still couldn't figure out the situation, so he couldn't say anything.

Zhu Zhanji picked her up and was about to leave, when Zhang Yue, who was sitting on the ground, called out to him: "Your Highness, take the boat quickly." ”

Seeing Zhu Zhanji holding the buckwheat and taking the boat in the direction of Xihuamen, Zhang Yue wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and suddenly smiled:

"Buckwheat? It turned out to be you. ”

Some time ago, the Zongren Mansion entrusted Jinyiwei to check a girl who was taken out of the palace at birth, and the girl's name was called "Hua Buckwheat".

I've seen the name 10,000 times, and it's the first time I've seen a real person today, and it's underwater.

"Go, find someone along the road and ask, when the eldest girl fell into the water just now, there were two figures on the side of the road."

Zhang Yue didn't like to read since he was a child, and among the children of princes and nobles, he was the first to fight and make trouble. Later, because of the reason of the honorable relatives, he was awarded the brocade guard and served the Yongle Emperor.

But because of his skill, and not afraid of death, coupled with Zhang's loyalty to Emperor Yongle, he was given the title of commander last year.

Although Zhang Guifei is an older sister, she can't control him since she was a child, until he entered the Jinyi Guard, people have become calm and restrained, and the emperor is willing to use him, Zhang Guifei gradually let go of him.

When Zhang Yue went to change clothes, he suddenly remembered that there was still a buckwheat thing in his arms, and when he took it out, he saw that it was a gold heart inlaid with red and blue gemstones.

At that time, Hua Qiao's head was up, taken off from the top of her head, and was slowly falling down in the water, Zhang Yue grabbed it with one hand and stuffed it into his arms.

Underwater, he also gave her a breath.

Of course, standing in front of the crown prince and the concubine, he will not say these two things.

"On that road, we only found a little eunuch who fed animals, and he said that before he went to Hucheng, the eldest girl was feeding the swans at the water platform, and he saw a county lord and her personal palace maid on the way.

And then there's ......"

Zhang Yue stopped and didn't say anything more.

"What else?" The prince asked.

"The county lord of Jiaxing and the two noble ladies are resting in the Yingcui Palace. We went to inquire and said that except for the eldest girl, we had not seen any other county lords walk past the palace. ”

Zhang Yue felt that things were getting more and more interesting.

The flying fish suit is worn on Zhang Yue's body, in addition to the unique coldness of Jinyiwei, there is also a bit of extravagance that is difficult to imitate.

He walked down the stairs of the dragon ship with small steps, and two of his lieutenants came up to him, one of whom spread out his palm, and inside lay a golden hairpin inlaid with rubies and jade.

"My lord, we found this behind a tree on the side of the road."

Zhang Yue glanced at it and said with a smile: "Hongfu Gold Shop, go and check, make sure you have the answer." ”

Hua Qiao was sent back to Bichun Palace, and the imperial doctor said that he was frightened, so he was speechless.

Zhu Zhanji walked around the courtyard twice and called Xiao Yan over: "You go and pick a girl of hers to come into the palace to take care of her, and ...... Lone remembered that she had brought two orphans back, and if she wanted to, she would choose one of them to enter the palace as a chamberlain. ”

As soon as Xiao Yan went, he directly ordered Xiao Qi, because when he saw Hua Qiao leaving Beijing, he took her with him. As for being an internal servant, it requires them to volunteer to change their lives. He said:

"When you enter the palace, you are not a man, and besides, you can't turn back......"

Haiying and Haiming glanced at each other, this happened too suddenly, they never thought about it. Heming was about to stand up, and Xiao Gao next to him said:

"I'll go."

"You? Don't you have a position in James House? Your family hasn't come back yet, so you're just ...... Can't think of it? ”

They are colleagues, and the last three words were squeezed out of Xiao Yan's teeth.

"That's what the adults said, let me protect the girl with my life. In just a few days, she almost drowned...... I have to go, no matter how it goes. ”

Kodaka rarely said so much.

Xiao Yan had no choice but to ask, "Okay, how old are you?" Do you have any family? ”

"This year, the moon turns eighteen. Orphan. ”

"Okay, rest today, there is no one in the clean room, you pack up, and wait for me outside Xihua Gate early tomorrow morning." Xiao Qi will come with me now. ”

Xiao Yan took Xiao Qi away, and everyone in the West Courtyard didn't speak, watching Xiao Gao turn around and go back to the East Courtyard.

"The girl is also pitiful, such a kind-hearted and smiling girl, she has only been in the palace for less than a month, and she fell ......into the water for some reason," Sister-in-law Zhang sighed.

On the day the girl left Beijing, she left them with enough money to live for two or three years, and let them guard the house and wait for them to come back.

Rui'er stood in the courtyard dumbfounded, everyone was scattered, and she hadn't come back to her senses yet:

Kodaka ...... He wants to enter the palace as a eunuch? Does he understand what he's doing?

Rui'er took a few deep breaths, and she secretly went to the East Courtyard while everyone was not paying attention.

Xiao Gao's room was in the first room, a small room, with only a bed, a table, and his things, all in the box under the bed.

Rui'er didn't knock on the door, closed the door when she entered, and looked at Xiao Gao blankly.

Xiao Gao was sorting out his things, and when he saw her come in, he took out the pair of shoes Rui'er made for him from under the bed, and said with a smile: "There is unity in entering the palace, this is not needed, you can send whoever is suitable." ”

"Do you know what a eunuch is?"

"I know."

"Know you're still going? Why? ”

"I just said that."

Rui'er's tears fell: "My heart, you don't understand at all? ”

Xiao Gao didn't know how to answer, he didn't have a heart, and he gave it away a long time ago.

Rui'er burst into tears and began to unbutton her clothes, crying and saying, "Okay, I'll give me to you now, and let you know what a man should look like!" ”

Xiao Gao was stunned, grabbed the placket she had untied, and said with difficulty:

"Don't do this, I can't give you anything......"

Rui'er cried and threw herself into his arms, and Xiao Gao stood stiffly, not responding to her. Rui'er reached out and slowly buttoned the button, didn't look at Xiao Gao again, and bowed her head and went out.

This night, Xiao Gao slept deeply.

He is more anxious than anyone else now, for fear that if it is a little later or slower, the buckwheat will disappear.

In his dream, he heard what Hua Qiao had said......

"Happy, do you have a favorite girl?"

"Nope."

"Then do you know what it feels like to love without love?"

"I don't know."

"Drink to quench your thirst for the love of someone...... In my heart, how I don't want Sister Tao to do this......"

Drink poison to quench thirst?

If that's good for you, I'll do it.
