In the cold and damp dungeon, the air was filled with a pungent musty smell.

Three days had passed since the day of the rebellion, and on that day he had stopped the reinforcements who had rescued him.

But he never thought that all this was a trick used by Yin Zhige to invite you into the urn.

Quan Yun curled up in the corner, and from time to time there were rats and poisonous insects running by his feet, and he was not afraid.

Just sitting there, the jailer who delivered the food thought he was scared silly.

Afraid that he would starve to death, he was given the most grains of rice every time he delivered food.

Looking at the rice soup in the broken bowl, Quan Yun was full of heart, and all that was left was hatred.

It turns out that he has always been someone else's pawn, and even in the middle of the move, he may have been manipulated.

He crouched in the corner with his head in his hands, trembling all over.

Suddenly, he climbed to the cell door and shouted against the railing.

"I want to see the emperor, I have something very important to tell him, I want to see the emperor!"

Yin Zhige explained that he paid too much attention to Quanyun, so as soon as he heard that Quanyun was moving, someone immediately went to notify the imperial study.

In the interrogation room, Quan Yun sat on the ground dirty, and he watched Yin Zhige walk in, his eyes were eager.

Yin Zhige sat on the chair and looked at Quan Yun, who was a little excited, "What's the matter with you?" ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Wechen didn't mean to stop the rescue, Wechen was just being used.

They lied to me and said that it would be okay to just negotiate a deal with you, so that's why Wechen will ......"

Quan Yun swallowed his saliva hard, he still didn't tell the truth, there was disappointment in Yin Zhige's eyes, Quan Yun couldn't understand it.

What is he disappointed about?

"Your Majesty, you have to believe in Weichen, Weichen definitely has no intention of harming you."

Yin Zhige raised his eyebrows, "Then who is this person who lied to you?" ”

Quan Yun was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were full of hatred, and he gritted his teeth and said the name of Master Quan, Yin Zhige nodded and closed his eyes slightly.

Knowing that he was leaving, he didn't say a word, Quan Yun's feet were locked with chains and couldn't move, so he watched Yin Zhige leave.

After the door of the prison was completely closed, Quan Yun collapsed to the ground weakly, the tip of his nose filled with a foul smell, but he didn't realize it.

In the imperial study, Yin Zhige closed his eyes, Xiao Dezi waited on the side with the dust in his arms, the sky outside the house was gloomy, and the wind was whirring.

Spring has arrived, and there will be no more snow.

After a while, the rain was falling, and the air was filled with dampness.

Yin Zhige opened his eyes, his expression uncertain.

Master Quan has been inexplicably flustered recently, and his eyelids have been jumping, and then it rained for the first time this spring.

The Praetorian Guards had come in the pouring rain, and there were a few drops of mud on the toes of the black boots.

The mahogany door of the family's mansion is covered with a seal written in red lacquer.

The whole master intended to rebel, committed an unforgivable crime, and was sentenced to be beheaded.

For a while, Manjing sighed.

The time of beheading was undecided, and Master Quan was escorted to the prison as the main culprit, and the others were scattered into the dungeon of Jingzhao Mansion.

Xiao Cheng only found out about this when he overheard the discussion of the little palace maid in the imperial dining room.

She was in a trance, and when someone next to her exclaimed, she came back to her senses and realized that she had dropped the soup that the queen mother wanted.

In order to hide that she was wrong, she fell to the ground as soon as she closed her eyes.

A few slightly older palace maids sent her back to her room and invited a doctor to come and see her.

The doctor couldn't say why, but she was weak and short of breath and needed to recuperate for a few days.

Xiao Cheng slept until night, she secretly left the residence, on the remote road, she leaned against the wall in a daze, her eyes gradually blurred.

It wasn't until the sky was white that she limped back to her room and pretended to sleep.

When she was counting the ingredients, a good palace maid gossiped with her.

"A few days ago, someone forced the palace, and I heard that it was the way for the whole family to pass.

Last year's champion Lang Quanyun was his nephew, and he was sent to the autumn test for the sake of access. ”

"This old man is too ruthless."

"I heard that he still has a daughter, but she disappeared some time ago."

Xiao Cheng kept moving, and she didn't get involved in their discussions, and when others saw her so indifferent, they didn't say anything else when she was not interested.

The position of the director of her imperial dining room was promoted by Zhong Xiaoshu, and now Zhong Xiaoshu began to suspect that there was something wrong with her.

gradually didn't want to see her, and even tried to push her off the meal and send it to someone else.

She had no backer, and the old men who were dissatisfied in the imperial dining room began to stir up trouble again.

Xiao Cheng gritted her teeth and endured, she couldn't lose this position.

If you are demoted to a palace maid, your actions will be restricted everywhere in the future, and you won't be able to do anything at all.

On this day, she sent a batch of snacks to the living room where Yin Zhige met the minister.

When he came out, he may have been a little absent-minded, and he bumped into a person head-on.

Xiao Cheng fell to the ground, she got up with her head down, and she didn't look at who the other party was, and apologized again and again.

The other party smiled, "Not everyone is as easy to say as I am, you should pay attention to raising your head to look at the road when you walk in the future." ”

Xiao Cheng was stunned for a moment, she looked up and saw an unfamiliar face.

However, the clothes on his body looked like the official uniform of a former court official.

The navy blue is also embroidered with two-color cranes, and I am afraid that it is a third-grade or second-grade official.

She was still in a daze, and a little eunuch behind her saw someone and hurriedly ran over to greet her.

"Lord Chen, Your Majesty is waiting for you inside."

Xiao Cheng came back to her senses violently, she glanced at Lord Chen and then ran away.

Looking at Xiao Cheng, who was a little strange, Lord Chen smiled, didn't go to his heart, turned his head and entered the main hall.

After running a few hundred meters, Xiao Cheng's speed slowed down, and she walked against the wall, her expression a little uncalm.

Officials of the second and third grades are also figures with real power in their hands, to say the least.

If she had such a person as a backer, it would be much easier for her to gain a firm foothold.

She pursed her lips and glanced back in the direction she had come from, her eyes a little complicated.

After Yin Zhige finished talking to Lord Chen about the last question, Lord Chen picked up a piece of pastry on the table.

"Weichen didn't know that ordinary dim sum could make such a strange taste."

"If you like it, I'll have someone pack some and you can take it home."

Yin Zhige was not interested in these pastries, he took a sip of warm tea, and Master Chen smiled.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, and thank Your Majesty for your kindness."

After Lord Chen left the imperial study, he was led by the little eunuch to the imperial dining room.

Xiao Cheng happened to pass by the door with something and saw a man wearing a crane official uniform walking in.

If you look closely, it happens to be that Lord Chen.

"Master Chen, wait a minute, the slave will go and get the pastry."

"Tired."

Master Chen nodded, and then went to the door to look at the plum tree that had not been pruned and grew randomly.

Now it's spring, and the plum blossoms have already fallen early, and she doesn't know what to look at with a large green leaf.
