As dawn and dusk began, a light rain began to fall in the sky. In Yaqi City, such a sticky light rain is rare. As soon as Ju Xiang opened the butterfly wood autumn grain curtain, a damp air mixed with the fragrance of flowers and plants surged in like a mist. Looking sideways slightly, the peonies outside are jumping in the green trees, a beautiful picture is lovely, colorful swaying in the wind. A sprig is white and flawless, like a fairy dyed in the world. A branch is red and astringent, and like a girl, she gives birth to a silent and shy appearance. The petals drizzled in the drizzle are interlaced in multiple layers, still bright in color, still refreshing in fragrance, without a trace of decay, which really makes me fearful.

When the sun was dark, at my insistence, I finally dragged my sick body back to my room early by Furong's soft sedan chair. I was lying on the bed, physically exhausted, but in good spirits, so I always wanted to sleep, but I couldn't sleep. Suddenly smelling such an annoying aroma, I didn't feel dizzy, so I had to close my eyes and sigh, and I heard a soft call in my ear, "Second Miss." ”

When I opened my eyes, I saw that it was Aunt Jinyue sitting peacefully on the edge of the bed, and I didn't know when she had come in. Aunt Jinyue was dressed in a purple dress, with small gardenias embroidered with silver thread, and a brown wooden hairpin was gently pulled up on her ink-colored hair, which looked a little casual but elegant, her skin was as clear as jade, without a little powder, and a few light wrinkles on her face were born under her eyes. I smiled mildly and said, "Aunt Jinyue, why is it raining?" Rubbing his eyes slightly, "I thought Aunt Jinyue wouldn't be coming over today." ”

She said in a calm tone, "The slave maid first went to Yanlai Palace, and the father-in-law beside His Majesty said that the second lady was not there in the morning, and the slave maid had to turn back, but fortunately, when the slave and maid went, His Majesty was not there, and he casually prevaricated to those ignorant little fathers-in-law." ”

When I saw Aunt Jinyue say this, I couldn't help but remember what Luo Xi said before sending me back, "Yesterday you said that you wanted to go back to your room, I thought about it at night, and I think it is the same, and now there are only a few ignorant little fathers-in-law left around me, and I don't know if I can take good care of you, if you really want to go back to your room, it's okay, I will be busy with political affairs in the future, and I may not be able to take care of you." ”

I don't know whether to be happy or annoying, I thought that I was with Luo Xi, and I could drag him for a few more days to buy more time for Wu Yao and the princess, but now Luo Xi has let me go, and it is freedom for me. The matter was decided, and I had to laugh and say at that time, "Your Majesty's grace, Miao Miao is grateful, but Miao Miao doesn't understand why Your Majesty suddenly changed his mind?" ”

Luo Xi smiled, "You have a point, so it will naturally depend on you." ”

I looked up at Aunt Jinyue's long eyebrows slightly locked in her temples, and I clearly knew in my heart the meaning of her visit, "Aunt Jinyue came to look for me, but for the stabbing that day?" ”

She loosened her eyebrows, and said tentatively, "Fortunately, the second lady blocked that knife for Your Majesty, otherwise the slave and maid would be to blame." ”

I pay attention to it, the hairpin is a Ganoderma lucidum pattern, sparse and simple and plain, the hairpin carved between the branches and leaves of the branch and leaf with a branch of magnolia with dew and meandering, very vivid, the hairpin pattern is delicate and delicate, not the palace reward handwriting, "is the Red Moon Palace." I paused and said calmly, "Aunt Jinyue, Your Majesty already knows. ”

Aunt Jinyue's body shook slightly, "Your Majesty really knows." The tone seemed to be expected.

I nodded and said, "Aunt Jinyue, don't you really have anything to say?" Quite hesitant, for a moment, he still spoke, and said in a low voice, "You are the palace master of the Red Moon Palace, and I really don't believe it when you say that this matter has nothing to do with you, aunt." I frowned tightly and asked, "Why do you want to assassinate Your Majesty?" ”

Aunt Jinyue wanted to say nothing, her eyes darkened, and she sighed, "Second Miss, the slave knows about this, but she has no position to stop it. She looked really helpless

I asked, "Why?" ”

Aunt Jinyue shook her head, her wrist timid, "If you want to talk about this matter, it will be a long talk, the slave maid came this time to ask the second lady if she can say a few kind words to Your Majesty, and let go of the captured people in the Red Moon Palace, they are just obeying the orders of the palace master of the Twelfth Palace, they are innocent," the voice gradually lowered, "And the palace master of the double palace has been killed by His Majesty, and the dragons have no leader, so spare the lives of those people." ”

I shrugged my eyebrows, "Innocent? I was angry in my heart, and my eyes stared coldly at Aunt Jinyue, who was speechless.

I lowered my eyes again and said, "Aunt Jinyue doesn't want to reveal anything to me, just use the word 'innocent' to prevaricate me, how dare I help Aunt Jinyue say this," paused, "The Red Moon Palace is obviously coming for Your Majesty this time, what is the reason, even if Aunt Jinyue doesn't announce it, I can probably know a thing or two, assassinate Your Majesty," I frowned and shook my head, "It's a capital crime, please forgive me for not being able to help my aunt this time." ”

Aunt Jinyue sighed and said lightly, "The slave knows the second lady's thoughts, and she can roughly guess that the second lady will not help the slave and maid, but she doesn't want to ask for it." ”

I nodded, a little hesitant, "Aunt Jinyue doesn't have to talk like this, it's just that if I help my aunt, Your Majesty will be in more danger, not to mention Your Majesty's Holy Judgment, even if I go to speak, Your Majesty will not necessarily agree to release people." I can see that Aunt Jinyue has no intention of harming His Majesty and the Princess, but the Red Moon Palace is full of murderous intent and ruthless, and I really dare not gamble on the lives of His Majesty and the Princess. ”

Aunt Jinyue said "um" and said, "The second is not bad, the slave maid has not come back for too long, and it is all the slave's fault," looking at me, her tone was very sincere, "However, if the second lady helps the slave and maid this time, the slave and maid will definitely dissolve the Red Moon Palace on the spot immediately." ”

I knew it in my heart, but I thought about how to balance the words so as not to hurt people, and after a while, I said, "Aunt Jinyue, you really haven't come back for too long, how much do you think your words still have in the Red Moon Palace?" ”

Aunt Jinyue was stunned for a moment, and said softly, "Yes, why didn't the slave think of this layer?" The voice was small and small, and gradually fell silent, leaving only a sigh," the slave maid thought, but she didn't want to admit it. ”

I'm also helpless" Listening to what Aunt Jinyue said, I think that the Red Moon Palace should have twelve palaces, and now it is like a plate of scattered sand, each of which operates separately, otherwise there will be no two waves of assassinations with completely different layouts, and I boldly guess that Wang Ren'er and the woman who assassinated His Majesty that day are the palace masters of two of the twelve palaces, right? ”

Aunt Jinyue shook her head lightly, and said, "Not so, in fact, in the years that the slave maid left, the Red Moon Palace has always been taken care of by the king of Yunnan to help the slave maid, and now it seems that the slave and maid are completely useless, the Red Moon Palace has long been the heart of the king of Yunnan, for his use, the slave and the maid, as the palace master of the Red Moon Palace, has not been able to become a strategizing general, nor can he become a pawn who explores the way, he is really ashamed of the Twelve Palaces, he should have committed suicide by hanging himself, in order to set an example, and he is still alive to this day, "The face is extremely self-blaming, and his eyes seem to be about to bleed," The slave maid now just hopes that everyone in the Red Moon Palace can live well and not become a victim of the power struggle. ”
