There is a plum garden in the southwest of the palace, but in fact, it is only a few plum trees full of plum blossoms, and the others are dry or old. Except for the few plum blossoms that are still budding in the wind and snow, the garden presents a dilapidated scene, and because of this, it seems quiet. Lu Xin also discovered this place by accident, and after that, she occasionally came to the garden to enjoy the plum scenery.

In the early morning of this day, the wind and snow did not stop, and Lu Xin took Xiaoxuan to the plum garden to enjoy the scenery, everything was still the same, but it made the master and servant feel a burst of joy.

Xiaoxuan stepped into the plum garden quickly, picked a plum blossom, and said happily: "Guirong, the plum blossoms here are blooming, so beautiful, so fragrant."

Lu Xin also ran to another plum tree, smelled the flowers, and said happily: "Well, in addition to the beauty of the flowers here, the most important thing is that there are only us here, we can be free and unrestrained, haha, I'm so happy."

Xiao Xuan smiled and said: "Mmmm, yes, you are not a nobleman, and I am not a palace maid, we are all free people, we can have fun playing, we can play crazy haha" After Xiao Xuan finished speaking, she ran around the tree with two plum blossoms, looking happy like a person who had just been released from prison.

Lu Xin felt very happy to see her so happy, and she felt very happy, the silence here always made people feel relaxed. Lu Xin chased after Xiaoxuan and said with a smile: "Long live freedom, long live freedom"

The two frolicked under the plum tree like this, shouting: "Long live freedom, long live freedom"

Not far away, Murong Jin was lying on a tree branch comfortably inhaling the fragrance of plum blossoms, but she never expected to be disturbed by her. Murong Jin looked over and found that the people who disturbed her were Lu Xin and the little maid who accompanied her, and she saw that as soon as the two of them came in, they squeaked and laughed, as if they were very happy. If it was the other palace maids and concubines, Murong Jin didn't bother to pay attention to it, just dodged and left, and the person who came happened to be Lu Xin who he wanted to see. Murong Jin listened to the conversation between the two of them again, what did Lu Xin say that only they can be free and unrestrained here, is it possible that this king is not at ease Murong Jin thought about it and decided not to lie alone anymore. He sat up from the tree and coughed lightly, finally attracting the attention of Lu Xin and the others.

Xiao Xuan was the first to find Murong Jin, and exclaimed: "The prince and slave see the prince."

Lu Xin also bowed slightly and said: "Xin Guirong has seen the prince here, I didn't expect the prince to have this Yaxing"

Murong Jin jumped down from the tree, came to Lu Xin and said, "It's better to meet by chance, it seems that we are really destined."

Lu Xin smiled slightly and said, "The palace is so big, if you can have a relationship with the prince, it is really too much."

Murong Jin said: "Haha, if this is the case, then you are more related to this king than others, hehe just heard what you were reading, long live freedom, long live freedom, this word is fresh."

Xiao Xuan pulled her sleeve behind Lu Xin, signaling them to leave, of course Lu Xin understood what Xiao Xuan meant, after what happened by the lake yesterday, Xiao Xuan was worried that if others saw that she was alone with other men, there would inevitably be rumors again, and many words that slandered the Phoenix Palace came out, as ugly as they were. If the emperor believes it, he will not only lose his reputation, but also implicate his life.

Lu Xin saluted and said: "Yaxing, who has disturbed the prince, I will retire first."

Murong Jin saw that Lu Xin was leaving, of course he was reluctant, he hurriedly said: "Xin'er, wait a minute, if I make you feel uncomfortable because I'm here, you can be transparent to me, don't, don't rush to leave."

Lu Xin smiled and said: "How dare I be the prince is transparent, and besides, please call me Xin Guirong next time, so it's more appropriate."

Murong Jin didn't expect that Lu Xin, who he saw this time, would be so alienated from him, and it was without anyone else. He thought, maybe she was worried that Xuanyuan Rui would misunderstand, Murong Jin asked seriously: "Don't you treat me as your friend anymore, I don't allow you to call me the prince, you call me Murong Jin or Brother Murong, I like it."

Lu Xin looked at Murong Jin's serious appearance and found that he was still a little childish when he was serious, which was not at all like the Murong Jin she usually saw. Lu Xin remembered the feeling when she first saw Murong Jin was that she looked at him young, but he was full of nobility and easy-going. When it comes to business cooperation, he seems to be very shrewd and sophisticated, revealing the charm of a mature man. Lu Xin thought: It seems that he is also a person with a changeable personality, no matter what, he can't afford to provoke him anyway.

Lu Xin said tactfully: "If I am outside the palace, I can sing with the prince about wine and friendship." However, this is the palace, I have a reason to be involuntarily, I hope the prince will forgive me, our cooperation is still the same, farewell. ”

Murong Jin knew that he was a little strong, but he was still reluctant to let Lu Xin go, he pleaded and said, "Xin'er, just stay for a while, okay?"

Lu Xin really couldn't help him, so she had to nod and agree.

Murong Jin happily took Lu Xin's hand, led her to a tall plum tree, and said, "There is no master here, no subordinates, no princes, and no nobles, only friends." I want you to laugh as freely as you did when you first came in. ”

Lu Xin listened to Murong Jin's words, and did not smile relaxedly, but she was sincerely moved by his sincerity. In this society where everyone is respectful and humble, he can put down his body and beg himself to stay for a while, Xuanyuan Rui can't do this, and Li Qingyuan can't do this.

Murong Jin let go of Lu Xin's hand, and suddenly, he slashed the trunk of the tree hard, the whole tree trembled, Lu Xin and Xiao Xuan were frightened, and they didn't know what Murong Jin meant. Lu Xin saw that Murong Jin frowned slightly, and when he looked at his palm again, he suddenly retracted, and Lu Xin asked worriedly, "Lord Wang, your hand"

Murong Jin endured the pain and said, "It's okay, this king is a person who practices martial arts."

Immediately afterwards, Lu Xin saw pieces of plum blossoms slowly falling from the trees, and the cold wind in the early morning rolled up the petals and flew in the air, as beautiful as a rain of petals. Xiao Xuan happily chased after the petals when she saw such a beautiful scene, and she exclaimed with a smile: "Miss, there are so many petals floating, so beautiful."

Lu Xin raised her hand, and then the petals that fell on the palm of her hand one by one, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "It's really beautiful" Lu Xin looked at Murong Jin and smiled slightly, as if she was grateful to him for bringing such a beautiful scene to herself.

Lu Xin stretched out her hands and followed the falling petals, Murong Jin stood beside her and looked at her quietly, even if there were no words, it made him enjoy the happiness of this moment very much. The two of them stood quietly under the tree, looking at the fluttering petals and feeling all the beautiful things that nature had given them.

Suddenly, eunuchs and guards poured in at the gate of the garden, only to hear Gonggong Huang shouting: "The emperor has arrived"

Murong Jin and Lu Xin turned around to look at the sudden crowd, as well as the domineering Xuanyuan Rui, Xiao Xuan followed behind Lu Xin in horror and stepped forward with her to salute. Lu Xin came to Xuanyuan Rui, knelt down and bowed and said, "The concubine sees the emperor."

Xuanyuan Rui said, "Come on, take her back to the Phoenix Palace."

Then two fathers-in-law came out, and when they were about to grab Lu Xin's arm, they were thrown off by Lu Xin, and she said, "Let go, I will go by myself."

Lu Xin stood up, looked at Xuanyuan Rui and asked, "Why?"

Xuanyuan Rui glared at each other angrily and said, "It's better not to let me find out what you have to take with you."

Lu Xin was pushed by the two fathers-in-law, so she had to walk in the direction of the Phoenix Palace.

When Murong Jin saw Lu Xin being taken away, he was anxious and shouted, "Xin." But it was too late, he knew that he couldn't stop Xuanyuan Rui's order. He came to Xuanyuan Rui and asked, "What does the emperor plan to do to her?"

Xuanyuan Rui saw that Murong Jin expressed his concern for Lu Xin, and his heart was even more angry, he didn't expect that in just a short period of time, Murong Jin and Lu Xin were discovered by themselves that they had so many intimate contacts. This was completely something he didn't expect at the beginning, and he couldn't tolerate it, so he had to stop it immediately.

Xuanyuan Rui said, "What I will do to her, that's my business. Prince Shun should take care of your own behavior, huh."

After Xuanyuan Rui finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Murong Jin stopped him and said: "If you believe her, you shouldn't have treated her like this just now, this king and her are just a chance encounter here, why do you need to be angry with her" Murong Jin saw that Xuanyuan Rui was so angry, and was worried that Lu Xin would suffer because of this, so he tried his best to clarify the reason in front of Xuanyuan Rui. He didn't expect that the more he defended Lu Xin, the more angry Xuanyuan Rui would be.

Xuanyuan Rui said coldly: "If you really want her to be better, then please stay away from her."

After Xuanyuan Rui finished speaking, he left without looking back.

In Jinhua Palace, Xiao Cui rushed back and reported to Li Guiyi: "Li Guiyi, the emperor just went to the plum garden and came back, and he was angry when he came back. It seems that sooner or later, this precious face will be abolished. ”

After Li Guiyi listened, she asked quietly: "Did the emperor say anything about what to do with her?"

Xiao Cui immediately suppressed her smile and said, "This, this is not true, the emperor just ordered someone to bring Xin Guirong back to the Phoenix Palace, and then the emperor went directly to the Xuanzheng Palace to see the excerpts."

When Li Guiyi heard this, her hands clenched into her fists tightly, and said: "The emperor can really bear her, if he doesn't still have feelings for her, just this palace can send her into the cold palace by meeting men privately or seducing other princes."

When Xiao Cui heard this, she also felt that Li Guiyi's analysis was very reasonable, and she asked: "This, then Li Guiyi thought of any way, this is a good opportunity to get rid of Xin Guirong?"
