() Finally returned to the palace safely, and Luo Xi accompanied me to the front of the Wanyi Palace. From a distance, I saw that the candles inside were as bright as day, and a heart that had been settled suddenly hung again, I looked at Luo Xi sideways, and my brows wrinkled unconsciously, "Isn't something wrong?" ”

He just smiled faintly, raised his hand and stroked the top of my head, bent down so that his lips were close to my ear, "Let's go," he said, and he took my hand and walked inside, "Let's go in and see." ”

I shrank back slightly, "In case it's the Queen Mother......"

He patted the back of my hand and said with a smile: "Are you so afraid of the Queen Mother? I pouted and stared at him without speaking, he smiled and sighed, and said, "Don't worry, everything is right." ”

I nodded, and walked in slowly with him, before the picture axis of my heart was gathered, I saw Qiu Si come out happily, saluted us, and said with a smile: "Niangniang is back, the slaves and maids have been waiting for a long time, and they can't wait!" ”

I was a little confused, glanced at Luo Xi, then looked inside the hall, and asked, "What's the hurry?" I've only been with Your Majesty for an hour or two, what's so uncomplacent? ”

Qiu Si smiled from ear to ear, his eyes glancing desperately at Luo Xi, wanting to hint at me, "It's still Your Majesty's intention to talk about this matter!" ”

I stared at Luo Xi, his face was as usual, and he didn't see anything abnormal, but also, when can he make people see a little bit of his mind outside, if he has the intention to hide from me, I will definitely not see a clue, "What is it?" It's all this time, do you still want to hide it from me? ”

He smiled lightly: "It's just that I'm afraid that you will be bored alone, so I deliberately found someone to accompany you for a few days." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Xiang Xiang wearing a blue Cuiluo gown, lined with a pleated skirt lined with cloud tobacco porcelain flowers, the snail sideburns were combed smoothly and towering, and there were clusters of golden steps in the middle, the long beads trembled and hung on the shoulders swaying and shining, the willow eyebrows were slender into the sideburns, and the skin on the face was white and greasy like clotted fat, and the cherry-like lips were pursed, and it was like containing Zhu Dan, and a smile was touching.

She walked out with a smile on her face, first greeted Luo Xi respectfully, and after getting up, she saluted me and said, "Zhaoyi Niangniang Wan'an, Hu Xiangxiang to Niangniang Hello." ”

I was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly helped her up, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?" ”

Xiangxiang glanced at Luo Xi, pulled me over, and said softly, "It was Your Majesty who summoned me into the palace to accompany you." ”

I turned my head to look at Luo Xi, my heart was full of emotion, I didn't expect him to think about me like this, bowed my head, approached him and whispered: "Your Majesty ......"

The burning expression between his eyebrows and eyes was like a pomegranate flower blooming brightly, and his fingertips gently rubbed my fingertips, "It's just a trivial matter, and you can't even say a word when you are moved like this?" ”

I looked at the people around me, and couldn't help but feel ashamed, only clenched my fist and slammed it on his chest, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, how can you be so ignorant of suspicion today." ”

He snorted softly, wrapped my fist in the palm of his hand, and his lips were close to my forehead, whispering: "What else do I need to avoid when I talk to Miaomiao?" "I just want everyone to know that I only like you." ”

I smiled, pushed him, tilted my head and said, "It's not too early, there are guests in the Wanyi Hall today, so naturally I can't serve Your Majesty separately." ”

Xiangxiang just wanted to speak, I gently tugged at the corner of her clothes, she looked at me, and retreated with a smile.

Luo Xi sighed lightly, "That's it, who told me to come up with this idea," his fingertips tapped on the tip of my nose, "I've gone back to the imperial study to approve it, you can rest early." ”

I nodded, and he turned around, and I hurriedly grabbed him, thought about it, and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you take advantage of tonight to see the queen mother." ”

Luo Xi looked at me, his brows furrowed, "When did I become so generous?" ”

I pursed my lips and said, "Heart-to-heart, Your Majesty should go and see the Queen Mother." ”

Luo Xi's expression gradually calmed down, and after a while, he said calmly: "It's okay." ”

I hurriedly said: "Dongxue, send Your Majesty out." ”

Dongxue replied, "Yes." ”

I looked at Luo Xi's departing back and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Xiangxiang said loudly: "Niangniang is reluctant, why bother? ”

I turned around to Shang Xiangxiang's sparkling and smart eyes, and said with a forced smile: "There's no way, it's just that the mouth is wrong, life in the harem is like this, even if you are reluctant, you have to push him out in time," smiling at her, "Sometimes, I really envy you." “

Her eyebrows jumped, her head lowered a little, and she said sadly: "I have nothing to envy, but I have gained someone, but I will never get his heart." ”

As soon as I heard this, I looked at her more carefully for a long time, her eyelashes were lowered, the corners of her mouth were hidden with a trace of coldness, and the whole person had lost a bit of grace, the seven souls were there, and the six spirits were long gone, and they were not as angry as dead branches in the cold winter, "Hasn't the relationship between you and Lord Rong improved at all?" ”

She shook her head and said, "Rong Ruo's heart has always been in that person's body, and I can't shake it at all." The sad look in his eyes was a little bit worse.

I walked over and took her hand and said, "How can the princess who recites scriptures in the Buddha Bead Hall every day compare with you, after all, Lord Rong's mind will return to you one day, after all, you are the wife he married back home," smiled gently, "No matter how much Lord Rong likes the princess, but it is not right and unreasonable." ”

Xiangxiang nodded, his eyes were soft, and he said to me: "It's good that I have a confidant like you, otherwise I might be killed by myself." ”

I said softly, "Why do you want to be angry with yourself, it's not your own body that hurts?" ”

Xiangxiang frowned and said, "I really don't understand, why is he so desperate for the princess," sighed and shook his head slowly, "It's been so many years, his affection for the princess can't be seen by others, can't I see it?" She used her fingers to wrap around the yarn hanging from her belt, "How can I not be angry when I see it in my eyes every day?" ”

I wondered: "It is said that the princess had a deep relationship with the prince of Yunnan back then, and after the death of the prince of Yunnan, the princess chanted the scriptures for him in the Buddha Bead Hall, and never saw anyone again, how could Lord Rong be involved in a love network of the princess?" After thinking for a while, I asked softly: "Hasn't Lord Rong always been unrequited?" ”

Xiangxiang shook his head and said, "I don't know much about Rong Ruo and the princess, but I heard that Rong Ruo and the princess did have a relationship, but that was a long time ago, as if His Majesty had just ascended the throne at that time," shrugged his shoulders, "I didn't know Rong Ruo at that time, how could I know the inside story?" ”

I let out a "hmm" and sighed: "I still have so much inside information before, but it's a pity that I haven't been in the palace for a long time, so I can't help you," and said, "Do you want me to go to Your Majesty to help you find out?" ”

Xiangxiang hurriedly pulled me and said, "Don't," and whispered, "It's better to not know these things." ”

I asked, "Why?" ”

She said: "How can the royal secret be easily inquired about, and what is even more worrying is that once some things are touched, it is impossible to predict how many cases that have been sealed, let alone how many lives and deaths will be involved." ”

I lowered my eyes and said, "Also, if it is really because of your and my personal feelings that accidentally lead to these disasters, how can you and I not blame ourselves deeply for this?" ”

She said earnestly: "That's it, so don't go to the past because of me, I just want to live a quiet life." ”

I smiled faintly and said gently: "I understand, so what should you do with the relationship between you and Lord Rong?" ”

She was silent for a while, and her tone was as light as the clear moon in the night sky, "If it's mine, it will be mine after all, and it's useless if it's not my compulsion." ”

I laughed and said, "How can you see it again now?" Then he joked: "Just now I saw your sad appearance, and I thought you were so stunned by love?" ”

She gave me a sneer, "Miao! I'm talking to you from the heart, and you're joking in turn! ”

I smiled and asked, "What is the heartfelt word?" ”

She was a little anxious, and her face turned red, "It's all of them!" ”

I looked at her and whispered, "You're really contradictory. ”

She shook her head, "My troubles are real, but my helplessness about this is also true, and in the end, there is really no other way but to look away." ”

I was surprised and asked, "And then you really saw it?" ”

She said in a deep voice, "Look away." ”

I smiled, and she laughed too, "Then you are really good, you can go to Zen," pursed her lips, "If it were me, I would definitely not be able to see it or let it go." ”

Xiangxiang laughed in a voice like a silver bell, "Niangniang, you won't, Your Majesty loves you so much, how can there be a day like me, never, you don't know how many women in Jiankang City are envious of Niangniang!" ”

I looked down and smiled, and my heart softened, as if I was being warmed by the warm spring sun, "Really? Do you all think Your Majesty is very good to me? ”

Xiangxiang nodded, "Naturally." ”

Qiu Si was silent and didn't speak, but after hearing what I said, he also hurriedly replied with a smile: "The other slaves and maids don't dare to say it, only this one slave and maid see it in their eyes, but it is true, Your Majesty's affection for Niangniang is absolutely unique, Aunt Jinyue always says that Niangniang is a blessing, Aunt Jinyue is an old man in the palace, even she says so, can there be a fake?" ”

I asked curiously, "Is that really what Aunt Jinyue said?" ”

Qiu Si's eyes widened and said, "How dare the slave and maid deceive the mother? ”

I thought for a moment, "yes," and after a while, I asked again, "Why hasn't Your Majesty come back yet?" ”

Qiu Si said: "It's too dark, and there is no father-in-law around Your Majesty to lead the way, so you must go to the imperial study to come back." ”

I said "um", and didn't say much, just took Xiangxiang's hand and went in. As soon as I took off my cigarette powder splendid light gauze skirt and was about to wash, Dongxue came back and explained that Luo Xi had gone to the Kunji Hall of the queen's mother. I didn't seem to have any fluctuations on my face, but my heart was so gloomy that there was only a piece of sadness. Then, after Xiangxiang and I simply washed up, we lay down together, chatted all night, and talked to each other. Qiu Si and Dong Xue stood quietly with each other for a long time before quietly extinguishing the lights, and retreated with only two glass candles.
