%&*"; %&*";

Ouyang Ying was shocked in his heart: Could it be. Xiao Ziling wants to escape from the palace without permission. But. Why did she come to herself for help? Don't. Zhan Zhan really said something to Xiao Ziling that shouldn't be said.

Ouyang Ying gently put down the teacup. Pretend to sink your face. Xiao Ziling said with a serious face: "Could it be that Miss Xiao wants to escape from the palace. Don't forget, sister. You are the emperor's promise."

She called Xiao Ziling "sister" again. As if reminding Xiao Ziling that she was Meng Hongyu's concubine. I can't escape this gorgeous cage in this life. Though. Zhanzhan chose to betray Meng Hongyu in order to save Xiao Ziling from the palace. Surrender to love. will be "complicit and embarrassed" with Meng Hongye. The reality is bloody and cruel.

You don't see. Zhan Zhan tried every possible means to get Xiao Ziling out of the palace. In the end, he still ended up dying unjustly. The upper poor blue falls down the yellow spring. Neither is there to be seen. Therefore. Ouyang Ying is not stupid. She wouldn't be unaware of the seriousness of doing this. She will not lose her bright future for the sake of anyone.

"Nope." Xiao Ziling saw Ouyang Ying's reaction so fierce. Hurry down your tone. said with a smile: "The concubine has misunderstood. Zi Ling just hopes to see the world with the emperor in Jiangnan."

I heard Xiao Ziling say that he didn't want to escape from the palace. Ouyang Ying was relieved a lot. After secretly breathing a sigh of relief. Ouyang Ying said lightly: "My sister should know. The emperor won't take you to Jiangnan...... "He went to Jiangnan. Just to avoid her. Escape the pain of this cone-hearted erosion. How could it be possible to still take Xiao Ziling, the painful "perpetrator".

"Just because I know that the emperor will definitely not take me to Jiangnan. That's why I'm bothering my sister like that." Xiao Ziling looked at Ouyang Ying with an absent-minded look. I also want not to trouble her. However. Now except for Ouyang Ying. Who else can help her with this. Therefore. Xiao Ziling still said cheekily: "I hope my sister can do Ziling a favor."

"My sister knows the emperor's temper better than I do. Why did you come to me for help? Once it is a matter for the emperor to decide. Unless he changes his mind. Otherwise. No one can touch him." Xiao Ziling hasn't said anything yet. Ouyang Ying politely rejected her.

"Miss Ouyang doesn't have to be in a hurry to refuse." Xiao Ziling broke Ouyang Ying's mind with one word. Said slightly displeased. Zi Ling just wants you to help with a word. Besides. Nothing else." She also called her "Ouyang Girl", which was a hint at her. There's still a war between them.

"Oh." Just bring a sentence and that's it. What the hell are the words. Just one sentence. It is enough for the emperor to take Xiao Ziling out of the palace for a southern tour. Ouyang Ying asked curiously. What words."

Xiao Ziling knows. Let Ouyang Ying ask like this. Most of his plans have been successful. Therefore. Xiao Ziling said with a smile: "I hope my sister can tell the Queen Mother intentionally or unintentionally: Don't forget the reason why Xiao Ziling was allowed to enter the palace in the first place."

"Reason. What the reason." Ouyang Ying became more and more confused. Continue to ask curiously.

"I'm afraid that only the emperor and the queen mother know the reason." Xiao Ziling said in a tricky way. But. Sister if you want to know. You can go directly to the Queen Mother. It is also just right to bring the words entrusted by Zi Ling. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"

"Reason...... What the hell is the reason?" Ouyang Ying sneered. Straight to the point." How can I know whether this is true or false? How can you know if you are cheating?"

Also right. The heart of defense is indispensable. Ouyang Yingruo really suspected that Xiao Ziling had ill intentions. instigated her to ask the Queen Mother some things that she shouldn't ask. That's also reasonable. Therefore. Xiao Ziling decided to explain the reason to Ouyang Ying

"Zi Ling is just an ordinary woman. There is no sister's slender body, and the country and the city are all overwhelmed. Sister thought. Why did the emperor let Ziling into the palace in the first place?" The corners of Xiao Ziling's mouth carried a touch of self-deprecation. looked at Ouyang Ying with a smile. Said quietly. Don't. He just wants to bear the consequences of his 'jokes'. Don't. It's really as the legend goes. The emperor was coerced by my father."

Remembering the past. Xiao Ziling's heart couldn't help but feel a trace of bitterness. She smiled helplessly. He said with a grudge: "He is the king of a country. Why take responsibility for a joke. And why bother to submit to a courtier? The reason why he is willing to make a big deal about me as an unsalted 'ugly concubine' is just because they want to keep Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's pearl in the palace as a hostage."

"Oh." Ouyang Ying's beautiful eyes were open. Stared at Xiao Ziling with slight surprise. Listen to her angrily explain why. Originally. Ouyang Ying also believed the folk rumors. thought that Meng Hongyu was coerced by Xiao Wanzhong to seal Xiao Ziling, the "ugly concubine".

However. After entering the palace. She gradually learned that Meng Hongyu was not the kind of monarch who was willing to submit to others. also witnessed the deep affection between Meng Hongyu and Xiao Ziling. Therefore. Ouyang Ying only knew that the rumors were wrong. But he never looked into it. I don't know if there is such a deep reason for this.

"Hostages." Ouyang Ying thought to himself. Don't. Meng Hongyu really took Xiao Ziling as a hostage. Hold it in your hand. Because of this. He will marry Xiao Ziling into the palace. Even if Xiao Ziling's "private meeting" exhibition battle embarrassed him. He also had to order that Xiao Ziling should not be allowed to make a decision on his own. The reason why he didn't let Xiao Ziling die. It's because I don't want to lose this piece.

"As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea. From then on, Xiao Lang was a passerby." Ouyang Ying said with a wry smile. How could the child spirit not know the suffering? However. Since I chose to enter the palace. I didn't think of any way back for myself. I have already prepared to sit in the city of sorrow and die in the palace."

Maybe. Because Xiao Ziling's words made Ouyang Ying empathize. Ouyang Ying couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart. Wounded by the soul of the child. Every lonely woman in the harem. They are all outcasts who share the same disease. Abandoned by family affection. Abandoned by love. Spurned by time. And then. Little by little it is forgotten. Growing old little by little.

There was suddenly a hint of tears in Ouyang Ying's clear eyes. I can't help but feel sorry for Xiao Ziling in my heart. Xiao Ziling glanced at Ouyang Ying slyly. Knowing that Ouyang Ying seems to be moved by his true feelings at this moment. She hurriedly struck while the iron was hot and said, "I'm just unwilling to be trapped in the deep palace and behind the high walls for the rest of my life. Therefore. All I hope is to take advantage of this great opportunity to go out for a walk with the emperor. Get a glimpse of the outside world. Feel the breath of freedom. When you are old and reminisce. so that you don't regret ......"

"How can I help you?" Ouyang Ying was finally moved by Xiao Ziling's "bitter plan". Asked lightly.

"Thank you, Sister Ouyang." Heard Ouyang Ying ask like this. Xiao Ziling was overjoyed. Busy said. My sister only needs to remind the Queen Mother, intentionally or unintentionally, of the reason why I was allowed to enter the palace in the first place. That's it. Other. I've got my own arrangements."

Ouyang Ying looked at Xiao Ziling suspiciously and asked, "Do you really have a way to get the emperor to agree to take you on a southern tour."

Xiao Ziling smiled. "Of course," he said confidently.

Xiao Ziling was so confident in front of Ouyang Ying. However, I was still a little worried about what happened. Meng Hongyu is not as she wishes. So what to do.

"But ......" Ouyang Ying hesitated for a moment. After all, he spoke." This is the first time I've helped you. It will also be the last time. It's just that I owe Brother Zhan's kindness. Now it's all back to you."

At last. The reason why Ouyang Ying still chose to help Xiao Ziling once. Maybe it's because of a deep favor owed to Zhan Zhan. Maybe it's because of the camaraderie of many years of confidant. However. It's more because Ouyang Ying felt sorry for Zhan Zhan in his heart: After Zhan Zhan was sent to prison. Ouyang Ying never opened his mouth to plead with Meng Hongyu. I never thought of coming to the rescue. Because the growing ambition and yuang in the heart are at work.

Maybe. It was because of his ruthlessness that led to Zhan Zhan's tragic death. Ouyang Ying faintly blamed himself in his heart. Therefore. She finally chose to help Xiao Ziling once after all. Xiao Ziling is the heart of Zhan Zhan. It's the life of Zhan Zhan. It's everything in Zhanzhan's life.

Xiao Ziling knew that Ouyang Ying was willing to help for the sake of Zhan Zhan. Therefore, he was busy playing the "exhibition card" to continue to consolidate the results. She said in grief: "You owe the kindness of the eldest brother. At the moment you delivered his last letter to me. It's been paid off...... You don't owe anything to Brother Zhan for a long time. And I owe him. Too much, too much......"

"He died because of me. Men are ambitious in all directions. If it weren't for me. Brother Zhan has already gone to the battlefield with my eldest brother. Now he must be a brave and meritorious general...... I killed Brother Zhan......" Xiao Ziling's eyes were filled with tears. It seems that it only takes a slight blink. The tears will roll down in large droplets.

Although it is to win Ouyang Ying's help, he is "using" to show his war. However. The sorrow in Zi Ling's heart is extremely real and incomparably deep. Zhan Zhan gave her so much love. She owes Zhan Zhan's affection. And so much......

Although "Xiao Ziling" doesn't know the innocent past of "childhood sweethearts, two little guesses" between the real Xiao Ziling and Zhan Zhan. Yet for so many years. Zhan Zhan has been silently guarding her. Adored with her. Let her send her as she pleases. Go to the soup for her. This dedication and affection. How could Xiao Ziling not understand.

Even to the end. Zhan Zhan also bit his tongue to protect her. And Xiao Ziling at that time. is immersed in his own sorrow. Because I am afraid that it will add fuel to the fire of Meng Hongyu. He has never opened his mouth to intercede for Zhan Zhan. Maybe. It is because of her determination. will make Zhan Zhan choose death in frustration......

The pain in Xiao Ziling's heart. Gradually, it infected Ouyang Ying. Ouyang Ying also gradually fell silent. They both wept and wept. Blame each other. Each grieves for the same person.
