Chapter 17: Drunkenness

The farther Cao Ting went, the more he saw a person on the pavilion of the Water Pavilion. Today is the day of the banquet envoys, and it stands to reason that there should be no talent in such a remote water pavilion, but he didn't think about it, and he just wanted to pass by at will.

But seeing the figure from afar, it felt more and more familiar, and Cao Tingyue always felt that he had seen it somewhere, he was not a nosy person in the first place, and he originally wanted to pretend that he had not seen it.

But suddenly the body rushed forward, Cao Ting saw her face from a distance, his face changed, and then he flew to this person, grabbed this person's arm, pulled her back, and narrowly didn't let her fall into the lake.

Cao Tingyue quickly let go, "Your Highness......

"Hey, it's you." Cao Tingyu's voice paused, and then quickly looked up, she was very wrong today.

Compared to the previous emotions of shrinking, timid, cautious, or more, her face was flushed today, and there was a sparkling water in her eyes, but there was also a warm fire.

Cao Tingyue frowned, and he had already spoken, "Little, little Caozi." She tilted her head and looked at him with a smile, "Xiao Caozi, isn't it?" ”

This is called...... No one dared to call him that since he had been promoted to the top of the gear, but from her mouth, he didn't even feel annoyed.

She was probably confused, and the smell of wine exhaled from her body felt like she could smell it within a radius of ten miles, if someone said to Cao Tingyue at this time, she actually drank a glass, Cao Tingyue would definitely not believe anything.

There wasn't even a person around her to wait, and Cao Tingyue couldn't help but lose her face.

Today's banquet Beiyin envoys, at the banquet, there was a princess of the right age to appear in the matter of the five princesses, which has long been known to everyone.

When he came out, he also heard a few eunuchs on the side saying, "Zuo is just looking for a princess who is good to bully and has no backstage and pushes him out." You really think that His Majesty made peace with Beiyin in order to make friends, so it is really not the turn of this unknown Fifth Princess Her Royal Highness. ”

He felt irritable, originally things were estimated to be developing in this direction, he had saved her once in the Qinzheng Palace before, but he couldn't completely dispel the emperor's thoughts, and now he still has this way, and he is afraid that it is imperative.

Cao Tingyue looked down at her, and saw this petite and pitiful Fifth Princess Her Royal Highness lying on the railing, her eyes were full of water, unspeakably pitiful, his heart was sour and soft, and he only hated that he was not under one person now, and he couldn't do whatever he wanted.

His voice softened, "Your Highness, the dew is heavier, the water pavilion is damp, and it is freezing you carefully." ”

Chi Chi smiled and looked at him again, "Do you care about me?" ”

Cao Tingyue was stunned, seeing that her expression was already not very clear, but he had always been cautious, even if he was delayed, he would inevitably be a little guarded, "Your Highness is the master......

"Yes, no one cares about me." After a long time, she suddenly burst into tears, she was like an abandoned child, but this night was silent, she still retained some residual sanity, and she didn't even dare to cry loudly, for fear of attracting more people.

She is too tired, more than ten years of hard work, she feels in her bones that she is already seventy or eighty, painstakingly lonely for many years, in the end, she will still succumb to the imperial power, she has no choice, such a feudal society, she has tried her best to protect herself, but there is still no way.

The tears fell slowly, and she cried breathlessly.

Cao Tingyue took a handkerchief and squatted in front of her, wanting to coax her, but she didn't know how to speak, "The slave cares about His Highness, Your Highness doesn't cry, cry carefully." ”

He didn't say anything for a long time, just shook his head blindly.

Cao Ting sighed more and more, carefully brushing her face with a handkerchief, his tone was as warm and gentle as a spring breeze, "Your Highness, don't cry, what do you want, talk to the minions?" ”

Looking up at him for a long time, in the hazy tears, she saw that he was really handsome and indescribable, and she only felt that he was more dazzling than all the male stars she had seen before, but it was a eunuch, she pursed her mouth, her heart was half confused and half clear, she blinked and asked him with a thick cry.

"I don't want to go to Beiyin, can I not go to Beiyin?"

I still have something to do, I, I have to at least rescue Concubine Jing, although it's not good here, but Beiyin, Beiyin......

Thinking about it for a long time, she was about to cry again, she felt ridiculous, and she didn't know why she would say such a thing to such a little eunuch.

Knowing that it is useless, unless...... Unless it's the factory man in the dream, the factory man who doesn't dare to breathe more when he is popular, if, if it's him......

"Okay." Cao Tingyue agreed quickly, he wiped away all the tears on Chi Chi's face, and then said in a firm tone, "Your Highness, don't be afraid, as long as you don't want to go, the slave will definitely find a way and won't let you go." ”

Stunned for a long time, his mouth is faster than his brain, "Are you okay?" How do you do that? ”

Cao Tingyue put the handkerchief back into his sleeve pocket, his expression did not change, and his tone was just as gentle, "As long as His Royal Highness stops crying, the slave will definitely have a way to leave the princess in the Chen Kingdom." ”

He heard the hurried footsteps of a palace maid, and looked down at Chi Chi again, "Your Highness take care of yourself, the slave has retired." ”

Although he is a eunuch, he is also a person from Dongchang, and he is not a eunuch who waits for Chi Chi, and he is alone with the princess at such a night, I am afraid that he will also cause criticism.

The person who came back was Ah Ru, she was relieved when she saw that Chi Chi was still staying safe, and then she saw that there was no one around Chi Chi, and she was half frightened to death, and walked to Chi Chi's side, "Your Highness, where is Awei?" ”

After a long glance at her, Awei just came back, "Your Highness, slave maid, slave maid didn't find your jade pendant." ”

As soon as Ah Ru saw her, he couldn't help but scold, "You cheap billet, you are really bold, you dare to let His Royal Highness be alone in this water pavilion, if something really happens, how many cheap lives do you have to pay for?" ”

Awei suddenly turned red, she pursed her lips and couldn't speak, the cold wind that blew for a while was a little sober, "I asked Awei to find me a jade pendant, no wonder she." ”

Ah Ru also said, "Your Highness, the slave knows that you have always been the most kind and benevolent, but you really can't indulge such a cheap maid, and now she will leave you behind, and the next day I am afraid that if something really happens, it will be the first time to desert." ”

Chi Chi was amused when she heard this, she was indignant when she said this, as if she would die for Chi Chi.

But he didn't say much about this kind of thing for a long time, but responded vaguely, "I have a headache, let's go back to the palace quickly." ”

Ah Ru put the cloak on Chi Chi Chi, and glared at Ah Wei viciously, Mama Chen said, now is the most critical juncture, and Her Royal Highness the Fifth Princess cannot be allowed to make a mistake, otherwise I am afraid that the queen will be blamed.

Chi was helped back to Jinyang Palace by the two, and fell down with his hands and face clean.

This night, she always felt that she had suffered too much, and thought that she would fall down in a drowsy and fall asleep without dreams.

But I didn't expect that she would start dreaming again, this time in the depths of the dense forest, and it felt like there were few such deep bamboo forests in the palace, but it made Chi Chi feel familiar, as if she had been here many times.

She vaguely heard the cry of a girl, and the girl's voice was also very familiar, "But, but I just admire you, but I don't know why my father and queen mother just refused, and refused to ask me to marry you......"

A man's voice sounded, "This kind of thing, after all, the emperor and queen are in charge, if this king rashly asks to marry you, I am afraid that there will be many incidents, and it will be half the effort." ”

"What then, what then? Just ask that short-lived ghost Jinyang to marry? You don't know, she is weak, and she has to linger on the sickbed for half a year, how can she be worthy of you! ”

Why did you mention yourself? I was amazed for a long time.

After bypassing the bamboo forest for a long time, I saw that the two people in front of me turned out to be the fourth princess Jiahe and Liu Chuchen, the prince of Beiyin, who I had only met today.

Could these two have anything to do with each other?

Liu Chuchen's hand fell on Jiahe's face, "Then what should you do, even if we are in love, it will be difficult to achieve both." The princess in my heart is just you ...... after all."

Woke up suddenly, it was bright outside, she gasped violently, and then wiped two points of sweat on her forehead, feeling that her vest was completely soaked, Jiahe, Jiahe and Liu Chuchen actually had an adulterous relationship?

No, it won't. At least not yet.

"Is it something that will happen in the future?"

What if ...... If there is really anything between Jiahe and Liu Chuchen, then she doesn't want to go to Beiyin...... It seems possible.

After a while, I suddenly remembered that I was in a daze last night, and it seemed that someone wiped her face with a brocade hand, and then patiently coaxed her.

Damn alcohol, it's broken, and I can't remember what happened.

Chi Chi rubbed his head, he still felt a little dizzy, and he was determined not to drink again next time.

At this time, I still feel that my eyes are still a little swollen, as if I have cried hard.

This is not good, if Mama Chen knows that she is crying, and she is on the same page as all the ones that Aru saw yesterday, I am afraid that I will be suspicious of her.

After a long time, she lowered her eyes, rolled over and fell again, and after a while, she screamed, "Don't, don't!" ”

The door was quickly knocked open, and Mama Chen hurriedly ran in, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

I was sweating all over my face while holding the quilt, and there were crystal tears hanging under my eyes, as pitiful as I wanted.

Mama Chen hurriedly comforted her, "Your Highness is in a nightmare?" ”

She said repeatedly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's all fake." ”

The tears that had been delayed for a long time had not stopped, falling one after another, and there was still more surprise in her tone, "Mama? ”
