Suddenly, inadvertently catching a glimpse of Rong Lu's red and swollen cheeks, Shu Yao hurriedly stroked his face and said nervously, "Master, what's wrong with your face?" Didn't the general get angry just now......"

"If you accidentally bump into it, it's okay!" Rong Lu replied evasively, feeling irritable in his heart, he suddenly pushed her hand away, threw down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "You go to sleep first, I'll go to the side room to see my son." ”

After speaking, Rong Lu got up and left, leaving Shu Yao with a stunned and innocent face, she was stunned for a while, then wiped her tears, smiled and told the girls to clean up the food, and then freshen up and go to bed, drank the soothing soup and fell asleep.

Because she knew that Rong Lu would not come back to sleep tonight!

As the New Year approaches, Ming Shen's body gradually improved, early this morning, or five o'clock in the morning, Ming Shen has already finished bathing and freshening up, chose a white silk stand-up collar satin cotton robe to put on, and put on a ferret placket shoulders, then sat in front of the bronze mirror table, and ordered Lingxi to wear hairpin ring jewelry for her!

Lingxi wore a plum green robe and waited at the side, picked out the dazzling beaded jewelry in the makeup box, and persuaded him: "Miss, it's about to be the New Year now, and the palace is wearing red and green. Why don't we change the color to a more festive one? ”

"Isn't it just to enter the palace to thank you, and it's not to go to someone's decent banquet, even if it's a bit out of place, but fortunately, the clothes are all high-quality goods of great value, and it doesn't lose decency!" Ming Shen's thick eyelashes drooped slightly, and he picked out an old silver bracelet with a hollow lotus flower from the makeup box and put it on his wrist.

This bracelet is a relic left by Jing's mother, the cold touch evokes Ming Shen's pain, and under the dim candlelight, the bright silver light is like a thorn that cuts the heart, straight into Ming Shen's eyes.

She said sadly: "I haven't been holding a funeral for the nurse for less than 100 days, where is I in the mood to dress up in red and green!" ”

Seeing that her mind was gloomy, Lingxi didn't dare to say more, so she only chose a beaded flower carved from white jade and pinned it to her bun.

Ming Shen looked in the mirror, frowned for no reason, and immediately plucked the bead flower from his head.

Lingxi looked at her very puzzled, only to see her hanging her head and fiddling with a silver phoenix hanging bead step, and said with a smile: "You also said, this plain white body is too eye-catching, and it is really against the palace rules and regulations with white jade bead flowers, so let's change this silver phoenix to a little cuibu and shake it!" ”

"In the end, it's Miss's thoughts!" Lingxi smiled, then inserted the silver phoenix into Ming Shen's hair, and straightened the tassel of the collar on her body, and wore the palace silk, and then helped her out.

After dressing neatly, Ming Shen took a small sedan chair with brilliant embroidery into the palace to thank him.

The sedan chair stopped at the west gate of the palace, and was led by the grandmother who was waiting here to thank the Holy Grace outside the Heart Cultivation Palace, and then entered the harem under the guidance of the grandmother.

According to the level of the palace position, Ming Shen first went to visit the aunt of Xianfu Palace, then went to Yanxi Palace to greet her mother-in-law, and finally went to visit the concubines and nobles in the palace from house to house, and offered a small gift to thank you for the reward and favor of the day.

When she came out of Yanxi Palace, wisps of white spots floated in the cold wind at some point, she couldn't resist the invasion of the cold snap and shivered, Lingxi hurriedly put a dark blue cloak inlaid with silver wire on her, held her arm with an umbrella, and walked through the long palace wall against the smoky wind and snow.

Both sides of the palace wall are covered with snow, and the eaves that used to be golden and dazzling are covered with snow, and the sky and the earth are snow-white and empty, and the whole palace looks extremely dark.

Ming Shen first knelt in his aunt's Xianfu Palace and listened to the teachings for half an hour, and then stood outside the gate of Yanxi Palace for a long time, his knees were already red and swollen at this moment, and it was difficult to walk on the snowy road, so it was difficult to walk.

She had just recovered from a serious illness, and she was cold, and she felt dizzy and dizzy not long after she left, and she was physically unable to support the palace wall and gasped slightly......

Suddenly, a "creaking" sound of stomping on snow came from behind her without hurrying.

Ming Shen didn't have time to turn back, and he had already heard Lingxi's voice asking for peace: "The slave asks for peace for the prince, His Royal Highness Prince Rui is auspicious!" ”

"Get up!"

Wen Hao replied lightly, slowly walked to Ming Shen and stood still, glanced at her condescendingly, handed a black lacquer and gold hand stove in his arms to Lingxi, and ordered: "Go to the Agarwood Pavilion to help this king add some hot charcoal!" ”

Lingxi only said yes, and the verdant figure quickly disappeared into the snowstorm, and at this moment, in the middle of the snow, only Ming Shen and Wen Hao were left.

Ming Shen was nervous and couldn't breathe smoothly, his heart was pounding restlessly, and he couldn't help but look up at Wen Hao, the golden crown, the ink-colored royal robe, the thick wind collar on the mink cloak half-hid a cold and slashed face, and the scattered and powdery flying snow hit his face and shoulders like a tear, and she was distressed and sad when she saw it!

"How are you doing?" Wen Hao's eyes locked on her, and he asked in a low voice.

"Lord Lao remembers, the concubine is already well, and at this moment, I have to meet the other little masters in the palace, and I will retire first!" Ming Shen bent his knees and slapped him with his face to bypass, but he suddenly grabbed his wrist.

Ming Shen was startled, swept around nervously, and then gave up struggling, because in front of him, her struggle never had any effect.

"Let it go!" Ming Shen met his fiery and deep gaze in shame, and his brows tightened slightly: "Don't deceive people too much, although the concubine is only a side concubine of Prince Duan, it is also yours anyway...... It's your second sister-in-law. ”

In the last sentence, what Ming Shen said was extremely difficult and bitter, and she also felt unusually ridiculous, so she really saw Wen Hao laughing.

He smiled and pointed to the pearl pendant around her waist and asked, "Imperial sister-in-law?" So what is this? ”

Ming Shen looked down at the night pearl hanging on his waist, the sour bubbles floating under his eyes, the huge pearl was hung with bright red concentric knots, and under the background of plain white clothes, it became more and more bright and eye-catching.

Wen Hao suddenly hugged her into his arms, and his hoarse voice seemed to linger countless times: "Shen'er, can you tell the truth?" ”

Ming Shen only felt that the world was spinning, and he lost all the ability to struggle, snuggled into his warm and thick arms, and asked dreamily, "What do you want to know?"

"Do you have me in your heart?" Wen Hao asked urgently.

"Huh!" Ming Shen sneered, accompanied by a cramp in his heart.

She's already married, so what's the use of talking about it now?

Even if they are happy with each other, this worldly and intolerable dream of mandarin ducks will sooner or later become a mushy wild duck porridge. What saves the wind and dust, what kind of leading edge mistakes, it's just a trick made up by literati to coax people, and it can't be true!

After being silent for a long time, Ming Shen was very reluctant to untie the night pearl on his waist, handed it back to Wen Hao's hands, and said with tears in his eyes: "Zhijun's heart is like the sun and the moon, and he hates to meet when he is not married, and the concubine is ruined by the willows, and the prince still doesn't want to be entangled!" ”

"Whether you want to or not, one day, I will make you my woman!" Wen Hao said categorically, the night pearl that he was holding in his palm was obviously the texture of the pearl round and lubricated, but it was like grabbing a handful of glass fragments in his hand, blurring the flesh and blood cut in the palm of his hand, and it was hot and painful.

"The prince is really good at laughing!" A sad and lonely smile floated on Ming Shen's lips, and he slowly passed by Wen Hao and walked towards the depths of the palace wall.

Just happened to be holding the hand stove to meet her, she hurriedly stepped forward to take the hand stove, caged tightly in the chest that was about to suffocate, covered the heart that was twitching violently, and fled in a hurry!

In the side courtyard of the Yangxin Palace, there is an elegant and mysterious and quiet palace, where the doors and windows are closed for many years, and idlers are not allowed to trespass.

The interior of the hall is luxuriously decorated, only the light is very dim, only a few palace lamps shrouded in moon-white light veil, emitting a few faint rays of light in the dark corners.

After the early dynasty, Emperor Xuande was crowned with a dragon robe, and before the case was filed with full of majesty, his well-versed eyes looked up at the picture scroll hanging on the white wall, the woman in the painting was beautiful with black hair, her face was amazing, and the hibiscus opened on her side, but unfortunately one was half open, and one was defeated!

"Don't think about it, except for the iron heart."

"An iron heart is like a thousand teardrops."

"That beauty wants to hang Zhaoyang alone, where do I make offerings?"

"It's my high-burning silver candle shining red makeup......"

Emperor Xuande's fingers trembled and counted the prayer beads, his cloudy eyes dripped a line of tears, and his old body was independent in the dim light and shadow, which became more and more lonely and desolate......

Suddenly, the door of the temple was pushed open with a "creak", and a cold wind mixed with wind and snow poured in the back, setting off undulating waves on the curtain made of many splendid piles.

Li Yu prostrate outside the tent and cautiously announced: "Your Majesty, Prince Rui asks to see you!" ”
