Chapter 39: Why be pretentious
Yuyan never thought that she would come out of the Ganlu Palace with such an excuse. She was panicked, but when she saw the white expanse in front of her, the lights of the Tai Chi Hall were getting closer and closer to her, she exhaled a long breath, and felt that there was nothing worthless, as long as she could get what she wanted, it was worth it no matter what the price was.
In her previous life, she was a concubine for her brother-in-law for the sake of the Zhu family, desperately gave birth to a son, and supported her son who refused to be the emperor to succeed to the throne.
Qingcheng Zhai Palace is in the north of the Taiji Hall. It is said that it is a green city, but in fact it is a curtain made of cyan cloth, and the brick stripes are painted on the cyan cloth, and the form of the city hall is tied into the palace. The palace was used for the wives of the ministers of the interior and the outside who were far away from the inner city and did not have time to travel back and forth every morning and evening.
Zhou Xiao's family lives in Tongyuanfang, near the Upper East Gate, about half a city away from Miyagi. Originally, Zhou Xiao did not have a seal, so he didn't have to enter the palace to mourn and cry. But her mother died when she was young, and there were no female dependents at home, so General Zhou asked her to come over, first, to talk about her grief, and secondly, to show her face in front of the palace dependents.
General Zhou was originally a rough man, and his ideas were exceptionally simple. Zhou Xiao had no mother's upbringing, and no sister support, so General Zhou thought that if the nobles in the palace could favor Zhou Xiao, her future marriage would be much easier.
General Zhou probably didn't expect that Zhou Xiao would kick the concubine's own sister to the ground when he cried.
When she arrived near the Xianchun Gate, Yuyan did not continue to walk forward, but turned right and went in the direction of the Wude Gate. Linglong followed behind her, nervously watching her back. Her girl seems to be very familiar with the pattern in the palace, and she does not suspect that her girl has been smarter than people since she was a child, probably because she has been paying attention to it for more than two days.
The door of Qingcheng Zhai Palace was guarded, and when Yuyan entered, he nodded to the armor soldier who was guarding the door. When the soldier saw such a wonderful girl greeting him, his eyes were straight, and his saliva was about to flow out, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Idiot!" Linglong spat at him, couldn't help but giggle, and trotted two steps to follow her own girl.
The armor soldier stared at Linglong's back for a long time, until the companion next to her kicked her awake, "What do you want?" Any idea who that is? ”
"Who?"
"The sister of our eldest concubine's mother's family, is also something that people like us can think of?"
"But she smiled at me, smiled, you just saw it!"
Zhou Xiao didn't expect Yuyan to come to her, and when she saw her, she was so surprised that she pulled her to the small room where she lived, and the two sat on the couch and talked, "Why are you here?" ”
Yuyan looked at her and said frankly, "I have something to come out of, so I took it to see you as a pretense." ”
Zhou Xiao was stunned for a moment, and seeing that Yuyan's gaze was extremely calm, he couldn't help but smile and said, "You look at what you say, I will agree, right?" ”
It's also very strange to say, she and Yuyan have only first met, but it seems that they have been together for a lifetime, and they know that no matter what happens, Yuyan will definitely not harm her. No matter what Yuyan wants to do, whether he will implicate himself or not, Zhou Xiao is not afraid, "What's the matter?" You take me with you, and I'll accompany you and give you courage! ”
"No, I can't let you go together. It will be very dangerous, once someone finds out, I have a way to get out, but if you are implicated, the Zhou family will be very troublesome. ”
Sure enough, Zhou Xiao only felt that she didn't make a mistake in looking at Yuyan, she glanced at Linglong, "Why don't you leave your maid here?" I know a way to get out. ”
This road, Yuyan also knows, go to the south, bypass the back of the Qingcheng Zhai Palace, and then go out from the Tongxun Gate, there are many fewer guards because of the proximity to the two gates of Jiafu Gate and Yongchun Gate.
Zhou Xiao sent Yuyan to the vicinity of the Tongxun Gate, there were only two armor soldiers at the door, she threw a small stone to the east, and when she saw a armor soldier walking over, she herself sneaked over and squatted in the dark and let out a scream, this scream could not distinguish between men and women, and the other armor had to walk over impatiently holding the long sword in his hand.
Yuyan took advantage of this opportunity, bypassed the Tongxun Gate against the wall, and walked quickly towards the Taiji Palace. The distance from the Tongxun Gate to the Taiji Hall is not long, she is dressed in white, and the paper people and paper horses stacked everywhere are almost integrated, where the head shuttles, the skirt blown by the night wind, and the swaying paper people and paper horses are connected together, even if they are face to face, it is difficult for anyone to distinguish.
The guards around the Taiji Hall were extremely strict, Yuyan wore a pair of soft-soled shoes, shuttled through the white curtain, tried to avoid those armor soldiers, and entered from the Zuo Yanming Gate, where the white curtains hung inside, and the yellow flags written in gold powder were layered on top of each other. Yuyan walked over, but didn't find that in the corner, a pair of dark eyes looked surprised after seeing her.
"Since the king has arranged for you and me to keep the spirit today, are you sure that you want to talk about this matter before the king's spirit?"
It was Xiao Dingtai's voice, Yuyan paused behind a curtain, she saw the pitch-black coffin with its head facing east, a coffee table in front of its head, a pointing lamp on it, four pillars of incense, a basin in front of the board, paper next to it, and no one on the mat. Tonight, there is not even a monk or Taoist priest who does things, if it is not arranged by Xiao Dingquan, Yuyan will not believe it.
"I don't mean to talk to you, second brother, I don't quite understand what you mean. Tomorrow's coffin will enter the mausoleum, today is the last time you and I will keep a vigil for my father's soul, why do you still say such things? ”
Yuyan has seen Xiao Dingquan's ruthlessness, his ruthlessness, and his extreme desire and control of power, but he has never seen his hypocrisy. In her previous life, Xiao Dingquan's infatuation with her was extremely short-lived, she was not a person who would please men, not to mention that at that time, she was unwilling to submit to fate while still being unwilling to herself, and her reluctance naturally made Xiao Dingquan look at it.
Later, Zhong Qianna came, and later, her sister-in-law was also picked up. Three women in one play, not to mention that Xiao Dingquan's harem is becoming more and more full. In desperation, she had to lower her figure to seduce Xiao Dingquan until she was pregnant and had a son by her side, so she didn't need to use any more tricks.
"Your Majesty, you are my fourth brother, we have grown up together for so many years, how can I not understand your thoughts? I don't understand, that thing, you still take it seriously? You also know that even if it falls into my hands, I will not release it to the public, which is not good for us, what else do you have to worry about? ”
