Chapter 30: Risking Your Life
I still looked innocent, just looking at Biluo.
Biluo was waiting for Xiao Ce to speak, Xiao Ce had a cold face, I thought he would let him go directly, but I didn't expect that this Xiao Ce would actually go with me.
"That high priest, the slave and maid have to greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before going to Yongxin Palace, so Lord Priest, you should go with Biluo first." I didn't want to go with him, so I quickly made an excuse.
Xiao Ce seemed to be very "idle", and actually said that he was waiting for me outside the Anqian Palace.
I pursed my lips, knowing that I was probably going to be stared at by him today, so I could only obediently accept my fate and go to greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first.
In the bedroom of His Royal Highness the Prince, even if it is daytime, there are several tripods, and what is lit in the tripod is silver frost charcoal.
Therefore, the whole dormitory is warm.
At this moment, His Royal Highness was wearing a navy blue robe, sitting upright in front of the screen, silently looking at the scroll.
"Xiaoyan greets His Highness." I leaned over him.
He immediately put the scroll down and smiled and motioned for me to sit down.
"Your Highness, Xiaoyan is going to Yongxin Palace immediately." After I finished speaking, I looked at him: "Your Highness, don't wait for me tonight, Concubine Yong treats me very politely, and she won't embarrass me." ”
"Oh? Are you going to Yongxin Palace again? In the eyes of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, a trace of suspicion flashed: "Does she have a request for you?" ”
"She is a mother, what can you ask me to be a folk girl? Your Highness doesn't have to worry about me, I went, and I could see my senior sister, and I was very happy in my heart. I saw that he was still worried about me, so I quickly persuaded him.
He nodded slightly, and asked me to go early and come back early.
I leaned over slightly and exited the dormitory, and His Highness suddenly spoke: "Wait! ”
I looked back at him, and he said, "Put on your cloak and don't get cold." ”
"Good!" I answered.
The maid standing on one side of the dormitory had already brought me a cloak and put it on for me.
In fact, it is not cold to have sunlight in the daytime, and it is only to make His Highness feel at ease.
Seeing that I had put on my cloak, he nodded at me and motioned for me to go.
When I left Anqian Palace, I saw two sedan chairs parked at the gate of this palace, and Xiao Ce was really still waiting for me here.
When he saw me coming, he motioned to get up the sedan chair.
Along the way, I began to become nervous, I don't know if he will embarrass me when I go to the Yongxin Palace.
In this kind of anxiety, when we arrived at the Yongxin Palace, Aunt Xin still couldn't enter, and when I entered the Yongxin Palace, I specially told Aunt Xin not to wait for me today.
Seeing Aunt Xin nodding, I followed Xiao Ce and Biluo into the main gate of Yongxin Palace.
Following Xiao Ce, I had a feeling of going to the execution ground, and I was very flustered, and all I could think of was the scene when he killed his aunt.
I have seen this person's ferocity and cruelty, for fear that if he is unhappy one day, I will also fall to the ground.
"Niangniang, Miss Ji is here." Biluo led us to the threshold of the side hall and spoke.
In the side hall, Concubine Yong raised her head with a smile and looked at me.
However, this smile, the moment she saw Xiao Ce, immediately became a little stiff, but she was still clever and quick to respond.
"High Priestess, why did you come here together?" Concubine Yong's domineering and domineering, in Xiao Ce's place, it seems that she can't do it at all, and her tone when she speaks is completely polite.
Presumably, it is because for so many years, it is the priestess who has supported her, although she is now a mother, she does not dare to make a mistake.
"What? Doesn't the mother want to see this priest? Xiao Ce asked coldly, his tone not a little joking.
"Why, you all stand down!" Concubine Yong immediately withdrew all the palace maids who were waiting in the palace, and asked Biluo to prepare tea.
Biluo leaned over to prepare, and Xiao Ce, like the master, strode into the hall.
I hesitated for a while, but I went in obediently, and stood in the middle of the temple, and I couldn't sit for a while, and it seemed very awkward to stand.
"How can you befriend her?" Xiao Ce asked bluntly.
Concubine Yong's armor trembled slightly, and her bright red lips were still slightly raised.
"This season's girl is smart and lively, I just like to hear her talk about what she has seen outside the palace and pass the boredom." Concubine Yong looked at Xiao Ce and explained.
Xiao Ce listened, and the gloomy expression on his face did not change in the slightest.
"Alert? What to see outside the palace? Xiao Ce's cold eyes stared at Concubine Yong.
The smile on Concubine Yong's face became more and more stiff, and there was a hint of fear in her eyes.
Xiao Ce approached Concubine Yong step by step, and my heart was pinched, but if I think about it carefully, Concubine Yong is the emperor's woman anyway, and this Xiao Ce must not dare to kill her.
Concubine Yong saw Xiao Ce walking towards her, and the horror in her eyes instantly intensified.
Xiao Ce walked up to Concubine Yong, raised his hand, and picked up an earring that fell on Concubine Yong's shoulder.
It turned out that Concubine Yong's earrings fell off, so Xiao Ce helped her pick them up.
"Many, much, thank you High Priest." Concubine Yong's voice became a little stumbling, presumably frightened.
Xiao Ce suddenly frowned again, and asked, "That thing, you're useless today?" ”
"Oh? I, I, I forgot! Concubine Yong smiled dryly and replied.
I think the "thing" in Xiao Ce's mouth should refer to the yin eel.
After hearing this, Xiao Ce raised his hand and stabbed the sharp corner of the earring towards Concubine Yong's earlobe.
I could see very clearly that the place where he had pierced his ears was not pierced.
In an instant, red blood dripped down the earrings, staining Xiao Ce's fingers red.
Concubine Yong frowned in pain, but she didn't even dare to scream.
Xiao Ce raised his hand, licked the blood on his fingers, and then said to Concubine Yong slowly: "People know that if they have any other thoughts, they will not spare their lives!" ”
"High priest, it's funny, Ruyun doesn't dare, Ruyun has been looking at the Heavenly Master for so many years, and he will never dare to have the slightest dissent!" Concubine Yong hurriedly defended herself.
Xiao Ce listened, tilted his chin slightly, and looked at me.
And I, looking at the blood on Concubine Yong's ear, felt that my earlobe was a little painful.
"Lord Priest!"
This Xiao Ce, before he could say anything, I heard a woman's voice outside, and then the two spirit priests entered the side hall and whispered to Xiao Ce.
After Xiao Ce heard this, he immediately left in a hurry with the two spirit worshippers.
As soon as Xiao Ce left, Concubine Yong, who was originally sitting straight, immediately collapsed and leaned on the wooden chair, sweat already pouring from her forehead.
"Mother, are you alright?" Seeing Concubine Yong's expression like this, I opened my mouth to ask.
Concubine Yong shook her head, and with one hand, she gently pressed her temples, as if she was about to be scared to death by Xiao Ce.
Biluo came in with hot tea at this time, and saw that Concubine Yong's ears were bleeding, and she panicked to ask for a royal doctor.
"No need, you go out, be sure to guard the temple door, and if someone from the priest comes, report it immediately." Concubine Yong hurriedly told Biluo.
