Shangguan Yu'er said with a smile: "You have a lot of movement outside the palace, the concubine has a deep feeling, but it makes the palace envious, if there is nothing to do, the princess will also go to the palace to walk around the Lingxiu Hall in the future, and we will be closer to each other!" ”

"Niangniang has an order, she should obey it!" Murong Xun stood up and said with his head bowed, his eyes glanced at Shangguan Yu'er lightly, and saw that although she still had a smile on her face, there was a slight coldness in her eyes, but it was covered by the soft eye waves.

The two chatted a few more words, it was getting late, and Murong Xun was thinking about whether to leave and go back first, when he heard a palace maid and said, "Niangniang, Concubine Rou and Concubine Hui ask to meet!" ”

Shangguan Yu'er's face paused for a moment, and then a soft smile bloomed on her face, "Please!" ”

Murong Xun got up and said, "Since Niangniang has a guest, the concubine will come to visit Niangniang another day!" ”

Shangguan Yu'er waved her hand and smiled: "It's okay, it's all your own people, you can see it too!" ”

As he spoke, he saw two beautiful shadows coming slowly, the one in front of him was wearing a white palace dress, dignified and elegant, and a little similar to Huangfu Yuhua, it was Huangfu Xiuhua, the concubine Rou, followed by a girl in a goose yellow dress, with bright eyebrows and beautiful eyes, it was Hui Ping Fang Qiao'er who had seen in the Qin Palace.

The two of them didn't expect to see Murong Xun here, and they were both stunned.

Murong Xun got up and saluted the two. Concubine Rou reacted first, said "You're welcome", and then moved her gaze to Shangguan Yu'er who was seated, with a hint of disdain and mockery in her eyes, the corners of her mouth hooked, and said lightly: "I've seen the concubine!" ”

Fang Qiao'er also blessed her body with her, and Shangguan Yu'er smiled slightly: "Sisters, don't be polite, sit down!" ”

After taking her seat, Fang Qiao'er's gaze always swept Murong Xun's face, intentionally or unintentionally, occasionally revealing a little puzzlement and inquiry, as well as a little vaguely imperceptible hatred.

Huangfu Xiuhua is quite indifferent, her status in the palace is second only to Shangguan Yu'er and Concubine De, but Concubine De has fallen out of favor for many years, only because of the crown prince has today's status, and the only opponent she wants to ascend to the back seat is Shangguan Yu'er, although the queen mother does not want to see her, but His Majesty is extremely fond of her, and she has been favored for several years, until Fang Qiao'er appeared to share part of her favor.

Thinking of this, her eyes glanced at Fang Qiao'er lightly, she is the most popular figure in the Purple Gold Palace recently, close to Shangguan Yu'er, and it is also rumored that as long as she gives birth to the prince, the concubine will be just around the corner. However, she didn't care much about Fang Qiao'er, just a stand-in, no matter how much she was favored, she would not become a threat to her confidant, but she was happy to see Fang Qiao'er and Shangguan Yu'er fighting, and she was a good fisherman.

It's just that what she can think of, Shangguan Yu'er can't think of, so even if Fang Qiao'er is flying in the Purple Gold Palace, she will turn a blind eye and not clash with her head-on.

"I wonder what the sudden visit of the two sisters is?" Shangguan Yu'er's gaze swept towards Huangfu Xiuhua and Fang Qiao'er, implying a bit sharpness.

Huangfu Yuhua smiled: "Isn't it for the Queen Mother's birthday?" Although His Majesty handed it over to his sister to deal with, some of the details still have to be discussed with his sister! ”

Shangguan Yu'er smiled slightly and said, "Since the matter is handled by my sister, if there is a place for my sister to be useful, just say it, there is a need to discuss!" ”

Huangfu Xiuhua smiled slightly but did not answer, but Fang Qiao'er on the side snorted coldly, with a slight mockery, "If you don't make it clear to Sister Guifei now, if something goes wrong at that time, the Queen Mother and Your Majesty will blame it, and no one can afford this responsibility!" ”

Shangguan Yu'er smiled on her face, but she was not angry, but she didn't ignore Fang Qiao'er anymore, but turned her head to look at Murong Xun and smiled faintly, and asked softly, "The princess won't be bored with some trivial matters, right?" ”

Murong Xun bowed his head and said: "What's the matter, the concubine hasn't learned to manage the affairs of the palace yet, so I just take this opportunity to learn from all the mothers!" ”

Fang Qiao'er was snubbed by Shangguan Yu'er, and there was some anger on her pretty face, but when her eyes were on Murong Xun's face, her brows frowned briskly, showing a little impatience and a little fear, tangled on her face, which looked very strange.

Huangfu Xiuhua discussed some of the details of the birthday banquet with Shangguan Yu'er, most of the things are very good, but a few things are inconsistent, or Shangguan Yu'er has always been in charge of the harem, but he paid attention, and Huangfu Xiuhua didn't say much, but Fang Qiao'er on the side didn't interject a few words, most of them spoke for Huangfu Xiuhua. Since the matter has been finalized, not long after, Huangfu Xiuhua got up to say goodbye, and Fang Qiaoer followed.

Before leaving, Huangfu Xiuhua suddenly turned to Murong Xun and said: "Yuhua now lives in the palace of this palace, I heard that the princess and Yuhua have a great relationship, if she has nothing to do, the princess can go and see her, so as not to make her boring!" ”

"Yes!" Murong Xun stood up and lowered his eyes.

Feeling a slightly cold gaze behind him, Murong Xun turned around and looked at Shangguan Yu'er's eyes, but they were as soft as water, as if Fang Cai's cold gaze was his own illusion.

Murong Xun saw that it was not early, so he also said goodbye to Shangguan Yu'er, and Shangguan Yu'er did not force him to stay.

When Murong Xun walked to the gate of the courtyard, he happened to see Zhao Che rushing here, the sun was already floating obliquely on the mountain, and a few rays of sunset afterglow hit him on his dark dragon robe, his face was vaguely a little unclear, but there was a feeling of loneliness on his body.

Murong Xun stopped and said, "See Your Majesty!" ”

There was a trace of astonishment in Zhao Che's eyes, and the orange light of the sunset at this moment swept past the trees next to the tall shadow wall, leaving Murong Xun's body in this afterglow, leaving only a faint outline.

Zhao Che was stunned for a moment, his gaze looked straight at Murong Xun as if he couldn't move away, with a desperate gaze of disbelief, he wanted to reach out and touch the shadow in front of him, but his hand was in mid-air, as if he was afraid of disturbing a sad dream of some midnight that disturbed him.

Is that you? Are you back?

"Your Majesty!" Shangguan Yu'er's figure appeared in front of Zhao Che at some point, with a hint of sadness, and said softly: "Your Majesty has dinner, do you need the concubine to prepare it?" ”

Zhao Che suddenly came back to his senses, he fixed his eyes on Murong Xun, whose outline was gradually clear, his face instantly turned a little pale, and there was a touch of self-mockery and despair in his eyes, and the whole person was a little depressed.

"Princess...... No need to be polite! Zhao Che withdrew his hand that was squatting in mid-air, and there was a hint of darkness in his voice.

"Your Majesty!" Shangguan Yu'er called again.

Zhao Che glanced at Shangguan Yu'er and said, "I still have some things to deal with, so I should come and talk to you another day!" ”

Saying that, after Zhao Che took a deep look at Murong Xun, he left in a hurry as if he was escaping, and his always calm steps seemed to be like the master's thoughts, a little messy.

The twilight gradually floated, and Shangguan Yu'er stood in the hazy light, revealing a trace of sadness and grief on her beautiful face. But after a while, she regained her usual beauty, her eyes raised, and she glanced at Murong Xun as cold as ice, not as soft as usual, but a little more resolute, "Princess, go slowly!" She smiled, her smile full of poignant.

Murong Xun stared at Shangguan Yu'er a few times, as if she had reacquainted with her, she looked up at the sky under the twilight, and occasionally saw two jackdaws passing by, and a feeling of loneliness and desolation suddenly came to her heart.

On the way back to the Phantom Wall Courtyard, the path is Huanxi, this Huanxi is a natural stream, it is said to be a stream, but it is like a river, the river is very fast and deep, dividing the Zijin Palace into east and west. Connecting the east and west is a stone arch bridge, the whole bridge is made of white marble, which looks like a rainbow bridge.

Murong Xun slowly stepped onto this familiar bridge deck, and there was a feeling of exhaustion in his heart for no reason. Xiao Qianzi didn't speak, just quietly followed behind Murong Xun.
