Chapter 1 This person is not easy to mess with
The June sun is blazing, the cicadas are constantly whispering, and the midsummer in the imperial city seems to be extraordinarily long, and even the wind has slowed down, and it is slow to visit any corner of the East Palace. Seeing that the scorching sun had gradually sunk into the West Mountain like a round soldering iron, the sultry East Palace had a day of respite.
The wind lay lazily on the boat, hiding his thin body in the pool full of green leaf lotus, squinting at the colorful sunset on the horizon, drowsy.
Suddenly, a burst of footsteps and words came from far and near, breaking the gentle silence of the Incense Garden.
Feng Qingxu couldn't help frowning, this incense garden is a forbidden place in the palace, how could anyone come in? Father-in-law Fu won't stop it?
The voice became clearer and clearer, and only a slightly weak voice was heard: "Sister Ronghua, let's go back!" This is the forbidden place of the East Palace, and it will be punished if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows about it......"
Another coquettish voice said, "What are you afraid of, I want to see what secret there is here." ”
The weak voice still hesitated slightly: "But Father-in-law Fu ......"
"Don't worry! The person who led away Grandpa Fu was the most clever person around me, and Grandpa Fu couldn't come back for a while. The owner of the delicate voice was full of confidence.
The two voices talked closer and closer, and a woman in a palace dress dressed in goose yellow and light purple slowly walked out from the corner of the corridor.
The woman walking on the left is tall, with a round goose egg face, willow eyebrows and almond eyes, a full forehead and a high nose bridge that make the whole face look very delicate. The woman walking on the right lowered her head slightly, but she couldn't hide her beautiful and elegant face, and her bright eyes were like water droplets on lotus leaves, crystal clear, but she always showed a nervous and cowardly look, and kept pulling the sleeves of the woman next to her.
Through the gap in the lotus leaves, the wind saw the two people walking towards the lotus pond at a glance, and soon recognized that the woman on the left was Li Ronghua, the young daughter of the Taifu of the Chaozheng Dynasty, and the woman on the right was Yang Xiaohan, the concubine of the Qi State, who was the two good ladies of the prince yesterday.
Feng Qingxu knows the name of Li Ronghua, just because Mrs. Li Hongshan gave birth to five sons in a row, and she couldn't ask for a daughter, and she took medicine to worship the Buddha in many ways, and when she was disheartened, she gave birth to a daughter at the age of forty.
As soon as Li Ronghua was born, he really suffered thousands of glory, and Mrs. Li was afraid of falling in the palm of her hand, and she was afraid of melting in her mouth. Growing up in such an environment naturally created Li Ronghua's temperament of not being afraid of the ground, but if it doesn't go well, he must make trouble once, so that the entire Taifu Mansion will accompany the chickens and dogs.
When he grew up, Li Ronghua became even more violent, and once trampled several innocent people to death in the city, causing an uproar in the entire capital. The imperial history is played in turn, and there are boudoir women at the feet of the Son of Heaven who are so arrogant, which is simply outrageous. Although Li Hongshan tried his best to suppress it, after this incident, Li Ronghua's arrogance and willfulness were known to everyone in the capital, and no one knew about it, so that Li Ronghua saw that he had passed the age of proposing, and no one dared to come to the door to propose, and Li Hongshan and his wife were anxious in their eyes.
It was only in the past half a year that Li Ronghua suddenly quieted down, and it was not until he was recently accepted as the crown prince that everyone knew that Li Ronghua had fallen in love with the prince Xiao Yuning.
The crown prince Xiao Yuning has always put state affairs first, and he has no intention of being in the moon, but Li Ronghua is determined to marry Xiao Yuning, and after a three-day hunger strike in the palace, the prince has to pull down his old face and beg the prince to marry Li Ronghua.
And Yang Xiaohan, the only condition for the prince to marry Li Ronghua is that Yang Xiaohan and Li Ronghua enter the East Palace at the same time.
This incense garden is a forbidden place in the palace, and the two of them can come in in a grand manner, but they also have some skills. Feng Qingxu thought to herself, but she didn't intend to make a sound, but still hid in the boat, watching them quietly.
When Li Ronghua and Yang Xiaohan saw the lotus flower in the pond at first glance, they couldn't help but scream softly at the same time, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of them with a look of surprise.
I saw that the pieces of blue lotus on the blue waves were like open green umbrellas, snuggled closely, and the lotus flowers stood between the blue lotus, or pink, like the shy face of a girl; or white, like crystal clear jade; or red, if a fierce flame burns. The fragrance came to the face, and even the heat dropped by three points, which was refreshing.
The two of them greedily breathed the fragrance of the lotus flower, and felt that their stomachs were full of refreshing breath.
Li Ronghua couldn't help but say: "It turns out that this incense garden is a good place to escape the heat, why is the prince so stingy, he doesn't let us come here to cool off." ”
When Yang Xiaohan heard this, he was immediately frightened into a cold sweat, and he couldn't wait to cover Li Ronghua's mouth, sure enough, it was the daughter of the Taifu Mansion, who dared to slander the prince like this. She was busy looking left and right, and when she saw that there was no one around, she whispered: "Sister Ronghua, don't dare to say nonsense, the wall has ears, and it would be terrible if someone with a heart listened!" ”
Li Ronghua didn't care, glanced at Yang Xiaohan, she couldn't see Yang Xiaohan looking submissive, snorted, and said: "What are you afraid of, I am the daughter of the princess, even if I see the princess, she will let me score three points, if it wasn't for the princess who saved the prince, how could she be the turn to sit in the position of the princess." ”
Yang Xiaohan was already so frightened that his face was bloodless, so he had to stand silently and didn't dare to speak.
Li Ronghua looked at Yang Xiaohan with contemptuous eyes, and said: "Don't look at you and I are both good yuans, but you and I have different identities, I originally wanted to be a good di, it was the prince who felt that the East Palace went to two good women one after another, and the position of good didi was really unknown, so he wronged me to be a good yuan, otherwise with you as a concubine, how can you be on an equal footing with me?" ”
Yang Xiaohan's face was red and white, and he only said in a low voice: "Yes." ”
Li Ronghua didn't mind Yang Xiaohan's state of mind at all, as if he had thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he said, "You said, are the two Liangdi who went to the East Palace related to the crown princess?" It is said that the crown princess was born with a disease, her stature is short, and her face is ugly, so she can't see a woman who is better looking than her, so she ......"
Yang Xiaohan was so shocked that his red lips opened slightly, his eyes widened, and he was dumbfounded for a while.
Li Ronghua was even more proud when he saw Yang Xiaohan's surprised appearance, as if he had guessed some secret, and couldn't help but get close to Yang Xiaohan, and said: "I heard the old people in the East Palace say that one of the two Liangdi who went was Ruan Liangdi, who looked quite good, and when she danced under the moon, she was as beautiful as the fairy Chang'e in the moon, but she only went to the East Palace for less than a year, could it be the crown princess......
"Sister Ronghua!" Yang Xiaohan suddenly screamed in fear, and even her voice changed a little, she listened to Li Ronghua say more and more outrageous, and she was frightened, and hurriedly interrupted Li Ronghua's words.
Li Ronghua was also shocked, and said dissatisfiedly: "What's your name, scared to death!" ”
Yang Xiaohan said in his heart, I was scared to death by you, but he still looked like he was low, and said: "It's not too early, the prince will rest at Sister Ronghua tonight, Sister Ronghua should go back early and dress up carefully." ”
When Li Ronghua heard this, two red clouds flew up on his cheeks, but he didn't have the heart to continue to stay here and speculate, he just wanted to go back to freshen up and dress up as soon as possible to welcome the prince, but he said: "Ben Liangyuan is naturally beautiful, but if she doesn't dress up, the prince also likes to ......."
Yang Xiaohan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly helped Li Ronghua to go back, for fear that he would be a step too late, and Li Ronghua's mouth would come out of his mouth to scare people to death.
As soon as the two of them turned around, they saw a person standing not far away, and they were all shocked into a cold sweat, and at the same time covered the heart on his chest that almost jumped out of his throat.
When the two of them looked closely, they saw that there was only a little girl of eight or nine years old, extremely thin, wearing only a few of the most ordinary pearl silk flowers on her head, and her clothes were only the most common plain brocade in the East Palace. Her face was so pale that there was no blood on her lips, only a pair of eyes were dark and dark, and she only looked at them quietly, without any expression on her face.
Yang Xiaohan was already trembling with fright, and secretly screamed in his heart, this little girl didn't know how long she had been standing behind them, and what they said just now was only afraid that this girl would listen to it.
Li Ronghua quickly calmed down from the panic, looked at the girl's dress, and guessed that she was just a maid in the East Palace, so the temper that he was used to in the Taifu Mansion suddenly floated, and he scolded the girl in front of him: "Who are you?" Why are you sneaky here? Don't you know that this is a forbidden place, and you will be killed when you come here! ”
Feng Qingxu naturally knew that Li Ronghua was preemptive at the moment, just to hide the panic in her heart, she looked at Li Ronghua who was very introverted in front of her, and Yang Xiaohan, who was trembling, her eyes were even deeper, and she only said lightly: "Then you won't be killed?" ”
Li Ronghua choked, but he didn't expect this girl to rebel against her, and his heart was even more angry, and said: "Do you know who I am, I dare to be so rude!" When I give the prince Ming, I will beat you to death. ”
Feng Qingxu looked at Li Ronghua's angry expression, only thought it was funny, and even had the intention of playing pranks, so he threw down a sentence like thunder: "I heard everything you said." ”
Yang Xiaohan's body suddenly weakened, and he almost fell to the ground, only looking at the wind in horror, and turned his eyes to Li Ronghua stiffly, and he had no idea in his heart.
Li Ronghua Rao was bold, and he couldn't help but be shocked, and forced himself to calm down: "Who will believe what you little maid said, slandering the good yuan who is the prince of the dynasty, are you too long?" ”
Li Ronghua deliberately accentuated the word "good yuan" and stared at the wind lightly as if warning.
Feng Qingxu didn't care, only glanced at the two of them lightly, and sneered at each other: "Then you slandered the crown princess of the dynasty, is it too long?" ”
When Yang Xiaohan heard this, his face was as pale as paper, and he only muttered: "It's over, Sister Ronghua, she really heard it......"
But Li Ronghua is angry far beyond fear, since she was a child, no one has ever dared to talk to her like this. She grew up with dignity and dignity, and no one even said a word of weight when she stepped on the dead in the city, and this little maid in front of her dared to be so rude to her, where did she suffer such a grievance.
"Presumptuous!" Li Ronghua couldn't help but step forward and stretched out his hand to fan the face of the breeze, and the butterfly-shaped jade step in his hair seemed to sense the anger of his master, and shook it in the air.
The wind saw Li Ronghua rushing over regardless of his manners, but his body did not move at all, and he did not see a panicked look on his face, but suddenly smiled at Li Ronghua, as if flowers bloomed on the moss.
Yang Xiaohan was dazzled by the smile that came from the breeze, only to feel that Bai Sensen's teeth seemed to be a delicate blade, which made her shiver in the midsummer heat, and her intuition told her that something bad was going to happen behind that smile.
Sure enough, before she touched Feng Qingxu's body, Feng Qingxu's teeth that seemed to be shining with the sharp light of the sword had gently spit out a few words: "General! Hit her! ”
saw a black shadow flashing, and before Yang Xiaohan could see what it was, he heard a few crisp sounds, and everything returned to calm, and then there was a heart-rending scream in his ears.
Yang Xiaohan was so frightened that his eyes were closed, and a few words suddenly appeared in his heart, this person is not easy to mess with.
