Chapter 36: Under the Palace
The first thing that came to my eyes was not horror, but habitual.
Zhong Ling looked at her reaction, and felt a little uncomfortable, such a young child, in modern times, is the age to be spoiled to his parents, but here, it looks like this......
As if sensing Zhong Ling's emotions, the little girl suddenly took a few steps back, like a fried cat.
"I don't need your pity!"
"No, I'm not ......" Zhong Ling looked at the fried little girl, helpless to explain.
She has a very good way of dealing with bear children, but there is no way to deal with such a fairy-like little girl, which is really a headache!
"You saved me, I will repay you, what do you want?"
Zhong Ling couldn't help but be happy when he saw her like this: "What can you give me?" ”
"I ......" was broken by Zhong Lingdao, and the little girl bit her lip, her eyes were full of stubbornness.
The tips of her hair were still lowering the water, I don't know if it was because she was afraid or because she was afraid of the cold, the little girl trembled badly, Zhong Ling was a little worried: "Do you have clean clothes?" If you wear wet clothes, you will catch a cold and get sick! ”
The little girl frowned and looked at her, her eyes very puzzled.
Zhong Ling explained: "I was drenched in the rain and lay in bed for a full month, so little girl, you have to change your clothes!" ”
Seriously injured but chasing the enemy in the rain for more than ten miles, where can you get good results?
The guard on the little girl's face lowered a little, and she opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Zhong Ling, but she didn't say anything.
Zhong Ling was happy when he saw this, and asked, "Little girl, do you know how to go to the Zhonghe Palace?" I entered the palace with someone, and now I am separated from him! ”
If you don't go back, I'm afraid it'll be too late.
The little girl raised her hand and pointed in a direction, Zhong Ling looked in the direction of her finger, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she couldn't help but be happy.
"Thank you, little girl!"
"My name is Lingxi!"
"Huh?"
Zhong Ling turned around, but saw the small green figure like a rabbit, disappearing in front of her eyes.
I couldn't help but shake my head, she was really a poor little girl, and I didn't know if she would get sick when she went back.
As soon as I entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and the ancients did not deceive me!
At this time, the Imperial Garden.
Several eunuchs hurriedly rescued Yuxiu, who was struggling in the middle of the lake, and Yuxiu's clothes were wet, and the fat powder on her face was also wet with water, and the whole person was very embarrassed.
"Nonsense!" The queen had a calm face.
Yuxiu was already frightened, but now when she heard the queen's scolding, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she immediately began to cry.
The queen's face turned black in an instant, first jumped into the lake, and now she was crying in front of the public, if the one in the harem heard about it, she didn't know how to laugh at her for her lack of upbringing.
"Bring the county lord back!" With a calm face, he commanded the rough envoy beside him.
Mama has been in the palace for most of her life, and she has never seen any scenes, but now she has been ordered by the queen, and she quickly suppressed Yuxiu with her hands and feet, and walked to the Zhonghe Palace.
Yuxiu still looked crazy, shouting: "Let me die, I don't have the face to live here."
It's out of the world! ”
"Smack!"
The queen raised her hand and simply slapped her, and the pain on her face made Yuxiu completely sober up.
looked at the queen in disbelief: "The emperor...... The Queen's ......"
"What do you look like now? Live like a market shrew, can he look at you more if he is looking for death and life like this? Pipe dream! ”
The queen sneered, she used all the strength of this slap, annoyed that Yuxiu was not sober, and regretted her inaction, she had been planning for so long, but she didn't even know the origin of the woman!
The queen has always been kind in front of Yuxiu, but now she was at a loss for what to do with this slap, and she forgot to struggle for a while, and let a few grandmothers escort her back to the Zhonghe Palace.
"Queen Mother, do you want to go to the front yard or the back yard?" The eunuch lowered his voice and asked what the queen meant.
Shen Yichi was still waiting in the front hall, and now that Yuxiu is like this, he needs to avoid suspicion.
The eunuch was ready to go to the backyard, but he didn't want the queen to speak: "Go to the front yard!" ”
The queen looked sideways at Yuxiu who was covering her, her eyes were red and swollen, and her face was pale, such a haggard appearance, she should let Shen Yichi take a look!
The corners of his mouth raised a trace of arc, and he walked towards the front yard with the palace people.
The door of the Zhonghe Hall was open, and the people in the house were enough to have a full view of the scene outside the house, even if Shen Yichi wanted to pretend not to know, such a big scene could not be allowed for him not to look at it.
made a surprised look and said in surprise: "Sister Yuxiu, what is this doing?" ”
"This child, alas, ......" the queen wanted to speak and stopped, and ordered her subordinates to take Yuxiu back to the room and walk into the main hall by herself.
After sending the palace people who served to leave, he slowly spoke.
"It's too late, I'm just afraid that you don't know, Yuxiu, this child, she has been in love with you for a long time!"
"This ...... How is this possible? Erchen and Yuxiu, it's just brother and sister affection! Shen Yichi's eyebrows were furrowed, as if he had lost his mind.
The queen's face was full of worry: "Child, you have just seen it, that Yuxiu is really obsessed, and the palace doesn't know what else she can do, or ...... Why don't you go and see her? ”
As soon as he said that, he made a look of regret again, and muttered to himself: "This palace shouldn't let you go to see it, but the emperor handed over Yuxiu to the palace, if she has an accident in the Zhonghe Palace, how should the palace explain to the emperor and the queen mother!" ”
Now if he insists on not going, it means that he is not filial, and the queen's temperament has not changed at all.
"The queen mother doesn't have to be embarrassed, the son goes to persuade Sister Yuxiu!" Shen Yichi got up and retired.
When they turned around, the smiles on their faces faded, and the queen's eyes fell on the sesame cake that Shen Yichi had bitten half-in, with a grim face.
How could this plate of sesame cake, which was made at such a cost, not work?
Shen Yichi, Shen Yichi, if you do Yanagi Hui this time, then it's no wonder that this palace is no wonder!
Outside the gate of the palace, Shen Yichi walked to a no-man's land, took out a dagger, and inserted it into the crook of his arm with an expressionless face, blood gushed like a spring, looking at the dazzling red, Shen Yichi's restless heart slowly calmed down.
has been with Luo Yuling for so many years, how could he not know what was in that plate of pastries?
It's just that the mother of a country has such a thing in her hand, which is really surprising.
He put away his dagger, took out a small porcelain bottle, and smeared the powder on the wound until he stopped bleeding before he put down his shirt and walked forward.
Yuxiu has come to her senses under the comfort of the maidservant, and she feels more and more wronged, she is clearly jumping in the imperial pool for her brother Yichi, why did the queen reprimand her, what did she do wrong? What's more, the queen also expects her to marry Yichi's brother, doesn't she?
Shen Yichi walked in and saw Yuxiu leaning on the maid's arms, crying so sadly.
When I saw him, I was stunned for a moment.
"Also...... Brother Yichi? What are you here to do? You go back to accompany your Miss Zhong! ”
After speaking, he hardened his heart and forced himself not to look at Shen Yichi, burying his head in the quilt and choking.
Shen Yichi glanced at the maidservant, the maid hesitated for a moment, and then remembered the queen's entrustment, so she made a salute, retreated with the palace people, and closed the door very intimately.
Shen Yichi looked at the closed door, and a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes.
turned around and looked at Yuxiu's slightly shrugged shoulders, a little helpless.
He has no hostility towards her, when he was young, he was weak and used to being bullied by his younger brother below, but he has no mother, if he resists, he will end up even more miserable.
At that time, most of the palace people avoided him, but Yuxiu was about the only person close to him in this palace.
Over the years, she has been raised by the Queen Mother, and she is used to acting recklessly, she doesn't understand the suffering of this world, but if she listens to the queen's words, she is destined to be used.
"Yuxiu."
As soon as he spoke, the man on the bed stopped sobbing, raised his head, and looked at him with some pity.
"Brother Yichi, are you bored with me?"
Even the queen mother, who loves her very much on weekdays, slapped her, thinking that her brother will only hate her even more!
"Yuxiu, since you call me brother, then you will always be my sister, where is the reason why my brother is tired of my sister!"
The smile on his face was still gentle, and Yuxiu's heart hurt as if she had been pricked by a needle, how could she stand such a dense and long pain?
It's too late, brother......
"You're so resting!" Shen Yichi tucked the horns for her, turned around and walked out the door.
Stepping out of the door, I heard the mournful voice of the person behind me.
"Brother Yichi!"
Shen Yichi turned his head and saw Yuxiu's smiling face that was even uglier than crying.
"You're going to come to see me, aren't you?"
"If you want me to come, I will naturally come, but Yuxiu, sometimes if you are too obedient, you are not yourself!"
Leaving a meaningful sentence, Shen Yichi stepped out.
He has already reminded him, as for whether to listen or not, whether he wants to understand it or not, that is Yuxiu's business.
He is not a living bodhisattva of all sentient beings, he will not think about her in everything, and when life and death are at stake in the future, he will protect her, which can be regarded as fulfilling his childhood friendship.
sink
Yichi walked out of the Zhonghe Palace, and the heat that he barely suppressed came to his heart again, covering his chest and gasping for a few breaths, feeling the restlessness subside, and at this moment, seeing Zhong Ling's sneaky gaze outside the door, the fire jumped up again.
Damn it!
It so happened that the woman, who did not know his condition, saw him and ran like him with great joy.
"You're finally out, it's so uncomfortable for me to wait here!"
The hand subconsciously stretched out towards Shen Yichi, grabbed his arm, and just held it, he suddenly remembered that this was still in the palace, and he needed to pay attention to proportion, and was about to take his hand away, but Shen Yichi shook it back.
"You, you, you! Me, me, me! ”
Zhong Ling seemed to be a ghost, she couldn't even say anything at the moment, she had always had no skin and no face, when did the male god take the initiative to respond to her and hold her hand! Is the sun hitting the west today?
Shen Yichi was hot and dry at the moment, Zhong Ling's hand was like a piece of ice in summer, he couldn't help but want to get close, and the ghost made a god to hold it.
Zhong Ling was overly excited, and a pair of feet scurried around as if they were on fire, which made Shen Yichi even hotter, and he couldn't bear it anymore, so he lowered his voice and reprimanded: "Don't move!" ”
