Before entering the palace, Mrs. Xia repeatedly told Xia Li that if she could benefit the emperor Longen, it would be a great glory for the family, but the road from then on would be unimaginable and experienced by ordinary people. Once you enter the palace gate, it is as deep as the sea, if you can't get ahead, you must be cautious from the moment you enter the palace gate, and be careful all the time.

Although the note had been burned to ashes, Xia Li had been worried since receiving the note, and told the next person to clean it up after it didn't take much for dinner. Back in the dormitory, Xia Li was still full of thoughts.

Xia Li remembered her mother's teachings, so she acted carefully everywhere, checked out in depth, appeared on necessary occasions and acted cautiously, and has not made a mistake since entering the palace, which is also rare among the concubines in this harem. At this moment, there was actually the emperor's personal guard who invited him to talk in the middle of the night, and this guard only met by chance today, except for the name, Xia Li knew nothing else about this person. This is a rather dangerous signal.

"The third quarter of the child is the darkest time in the sky, and it is also the time when people are the most sleepy, although the palace is heavily guarded, but in the third quarter of the child hour, it should be regarded as the most lax time in the palace in comparison, as the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Lord Wei should not know the situation in the palace at this moment. The reason for meeting at this time must be very reasonable. What is the reason why this Commander Wei, who just met by chance, must be invited in the middle of the night? What did he have in mind? Who sent him? ”

Xia Li sat in front of the dresser and said to herself:

"Perhaps today's event is not accidental, but someone has specially arranged it. Could it be that someone is secretly watching my whereabouts these days? Today, when I was enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden, I seemed to have met a certain concubine, but because I didn't take a picture, I left in a hurry, and there was nothing offensive about it. After that, I was almost hit by an ornament under the tree, and it happened that Commander Wei saved me. Isn't this a coincidence, but someone deliberately arranged? ”

Thinking of this, Xia Li couldn't help but feel a chill in her back, Xia Li knew that once there was something in the harem, it meant that something must have happened in the previous dynasty, Xia Li was not concerned about any national affairs at the moment, but worried about whether this Wei commander was sent by his father to inform him of something, or whether the enemy came to seek revenge.

Xia Li would think of the note that said, "One Narrative, One Narrative, One Narrative" Xia Li was pacing in the room while reading these words, "Could it be that I have seen this person before?" Or have you dealt with it? "What Xia Fu said is not a prince and noble, but there are always rules, Xia Li has never seen any living people since she was born, let alone a strange man. Since entering the palace, when he changed, he lived in a simple place and rarely interacted with outsiders, and it was impossible for a character like Commander Wei to meet. Thinking of this, Xia Li couldn't help but ask herself: "Then what does this narrative represent?" The way he looks at him today seems to be the one I know......"

Tired of pacing, Xia Li sat down, because she has always been entangled by a dream recently, Xia Li has not rested well these days, coupled with this sudden thing, the more she thinks about it, the more upset she becomes, and the headache is committed again.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?" Luo'er saw Xia Li rubbing her temples with her hand, and hurriedly asked.

"Mother? Is it a recurrence of head disease? Luo'er asked with concern.

"It's okay, it may be that Bengong hasn't rested well in the past few days." Xia Li saw that Luo'er was very concerned, so she comforted.

"Niangniang has not rested well these days, and she is always awakened in the middle of the night, and there is no way for the slaves and maids to look anxious. I invited the imperial doctor, prescribed a prescription, I have been drinking for more than half a month, and my condition has not improved, and the hospital is too bullying, seeing that we are not favored, and it is not a high-ranking concubine who has become such a bully, but I pity the identity of the mother, but I have to suffer such a situation, and no one can die well. Luo'er scolded indignantly.

"Luo'er, don't be unreasonable!" Xia Li hurriedly stopped Luo'er, "This is the case in the palace since ancient times, those who have been favored, no matter the rank of the emperor's eyes, will definitely be sought after by people in the equal position, everyone knows that with a favored concubine, whether it is reward and wealth, it is very different from before, and those palace maids and eunuchs are all higher when they see it."

Although there are some people in this palace who are familiar with the rules, but the whole palace is like this, no wonder they are all for the sake of eating. It's just because my mother repeatedly warned me to be cautious before I entered the palace, although there has been no major incident since I entered the palace, but you have also seen the Chu nobles in Xinci Palace. Since entering the palace with the intention of seeking the emperor's favor, he listened to the slander of the little eunuch, and finally ended up deposed, and even the corpse capital could not be returned to the ancestral tomb, how desolate is this. I'm afraid that she won't know who framed her until she dies, so she will come to this. Xia Li said faintly.

"It's just that it's a pity that you follow the palace, and the coarse tea and light food all day long have lost the joy of those people outside the Yaohua Palace. I thought that if I entered the palace, I would be able to be superior, but I never imagined that I would be subject to greater constraints in this palace. ”

"Mother, you must not say that. A few of us are your personal servants in the summer house, since childhood and Niangniang you grew up together, your heart is also the most familiar, you were selected into the palace we are naturally going to follow, this palace seems to be calm as water, in fact, it is a deep hidden undercurrent, Niangniang does not have a helper around it, and it is said that with a favored master can be a good scenery, but it is also a scenery for a while. Only by following you, Niangniang, can we keep our group of slaves living in this palace safely. Luo'er said while helping Xia Li rub her temples.

"Fortunately, with you close people to serve, this palace can live in this palace with peace of mind. What time is it? Luo'er. ”

"Back to Niangniang, it's been three watches."

"Luo'er, I'm tired and want to rest early." As he spoke, he got up and walked towards the bed with Luo'er's help.

At three o'clock in the middle of the night, outside the Yaohua Palace

The commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Wei Wuxian, came to the outside of Yaohua Palace according to the appointment, and he really had to be careful along the way, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, Wei Wuxian, was a big red man in front of the emperor, and everyone in the guards must know it. The palace maids and eunuchs who usually run errands naturally know him. At this moment, if you want to make an appointment to meet the concubine outside the Yaohua Palace, it is a great crime of destroying the door.
