She reached out and touched her face, laughing at herself, "You shouldn't recognize it." The face was so disfigured that a few people could recognize it. On that day, the hairpin festival, the maids of Anyang Wangfu had a half-day off, and they agreed to go to Beicheng to watch the fireworks, and I also went. I didn't think I had a good view from under the observation deck, so I wanted to go up to the observation deck to see it, but I only went up a few steps before I came across the explosion...... My life was picked up, but my face was ruined. All of this is to blame on that bastard of King Anyang, it was he who planned the explosion, and it was he who ruined my face. He deserved to be beheaded all over the house and exterminate the nine clans. ”

As soon as she spoke, listening to this tone, I could basically determine that she was Tao Xu'er. I can't imagine that after going through so much, Tao Xu'er is still as stupid as ever, or as unreasonable and complaining as ever. I don't know if I should sympathize or be funny.

"The Anyang Palace's house was raided and destroyed, as an official slave of the palace, you didn't follow the punishment? Why are you here again? ”

Tao Xu'er slowly lowered her hand and said sadly: "After the Anyang Palace's house was raided, I, as a domestic slave and a criminal slave of the Tao family, should have been tortured and executed. But I didn't want to die, I had to live, so I ran away before Jin Wuwei came to raid the house. After several reversals, he was still caught. Xu is His Majesty took care of the emperor, and when he saw that I was pitiful, he spared me from death. Death is not necessary to die, but it has brought me back to the court. I struggled to survive in the court, endured humiliation and stealing my life, and tried my best to escape. ”

I didn't hesitate, but I also guessed a rough idea. She tried so hard to see me, but she was afraid that something would have to depend on me. Although I knew what she thought, she didn't know what she said, and I pretended to be confused with my understanding, and I was not in a hurry to break it.

Seeing that I didn't react, Tao Xu'er hesitated and hesitated: "Lacking, I'm ...... I want to ......"

Sheng Yunjiang slapped the fan and urged her again with hatred: "It's still delaying!" Do you spend a lot of time as a princess? Instead of feeling sorry for yourself by touching your grimace here, you should get straight to the point and say what you want to do. ”

I suddenly felt a little disgusted with Sheng Yunjiang in my heart, frowned slightly, and glanced at her lightly.

When did Sheng Yunjiang and Tao Yu'er change their temper! He has become so venomous.

Tao Yu'er glanced at Sheng Yunjiang timidly, quickly turned around, pursed her lips tightly, and said to me solemnly: "Missing, I came to you today to ask you to do me a favor." ”。

I feigned surprise and said, "Looking for my help?" How can I help you? ”

Did she ask the wrong person, how did she think of asking me for help? With our friendship, she can take such a big risk to ask someone in the palace to ask me for help, either her head is broken, or she is really desperate.

Didn't she feel that her family was punished because of grievances, and she wanted me to avenge her grievances, right? Or does she want me to get her out of the palace and send her to Tao Ruo? Then she could have repaired the book by herself and asked someone to take it to Jizhou, and let Tao Ruo figure out a way by herself, why bother to come to me again.

I shook my head, everything was my guess, not sure yet. I don't know what she's asking for, and I'm afraid it's hard to do it with my ability. I was stunned for a while, so I explained straightforwardly: "Sister Tao, if you want me to help, it's not easy to think about it." Although I am a princess, but my power is limited, if you want me to do something for you, I can't do it, if you want me to get you out of the palace, I don't have the ability, you still ......"

Tao Yu'er smiled suddenly, very displeased, and hurriedly interrupted my words: "I haven't said anything I asked you to help me with, why are you in a hurry to refuse!"

She clenched her fists and frowned as if she was trying to suppress her anger.

I didn't speak anymore, only listened to her tell me: "The Tao family was destroyed, although I entered the Anyang palace as a maid, but relying on the two families in the past, they were world friends, and there was still some affection, and no one dared to bully me, even if my aunt died, I could live in peace." I thought that I would spend my whole life in Anyang Palace. But who knows, there was another Beicheng ** case, Anyang Wangfu was seized like the previous Tao family, I was forced to get involved in this catastrophe again, and for the second time, I was filled into the court as a criminal slave, and I was bullied, and there was no daylight. I've had enough, really enough. So, you guessed it right, I just want you to help me, I want you to find a way to send me out of the palace and escape from this hellish place. ”

She's really unkind, she's so bold to ask me to help her. I glanced back at Duobu, who frowned and shook his head, signaling for me not to agree.

I endured the depression in my heart, and said to Tao Xu'er: "You want to escape from the court so much, and you have a lot of ability, so why don't you find a way yourself."

Tao Xu'er raised her voice and said in an unkind tone: "Are you stupid? The palace is heavily fortified, and there are many checkpoints, how can I escape. So, I need someone who can help me. Find the best time to let her cover me and send me out. If not, why should I ask you? ”

Tao Xu'er, it really hasn't changed at all, and her words are still so hateful. I didn't want to talk nonsense with her, so I asked bluntly, "Then why did you pick me?" You can ask Sister Sheng to try to bring me to see you, why don't you just ask her to help you get out of the palace, why bother to do it and beg me again. ”

At this time, Sheng Yunjiang, who had been quiet, finally spoke up and sneered: "Do you think she doesn't want to?" for she knows that it is useless to ask me. I can't do it, with my status and status, I don't have the ability to send a big living person out of the palace well. In case it is found out when I leave the palace gate, not only will Tao Xu'er's crime be added to the first degree, but even I will not be able to escape the responsibility, and maybe it will also affect our Sheng family. I don't want to take risks, and I can't afford to take risks. But you're different, you're Princess Jing, no one dares to search your carriage, no one dares to stop you. As long as you take advantage of your cover, the chances of sending her out of the palace will be much greater. So, why do you think she has to look for you? ”

I laughed in amazement, what you said makes sense, but how can I be sure, I am willing to wade into this troubled water.

Tao Yu'er slowly approached me and whispered behind my ear: "Not only that, I trust you more than Sheng Yunjiang."

I smiled bitterly and sighed helplessly: "You also know how risky it is to send the sin slave out of the palace from the court, why do you think that if Sister Sheng is unwilling, I will be willing?" Also, why should I take such a risk to help someone who is inconsequential to me? ”

I don't want to give the last implication.

Tao Xu'er said firmly: "You will, you will definitely help me."

Joke, she really thinks I am a believer under the seat of Guanyin, can I have such a bodhisattva heart of self-sacrifice? She couldn't help but think of me as too kind. I have no other advantages, but I am very self-aware. I am very clear about my position, I am not a wicked person, but I am not a perfect good person. I am selfish, greedy for life, and even more afraid of death. I'm not so kind as to be a good person, and I don't take any risks for someone I once hated so much. I don't know what the people of the Tao family think, one or two came to me for help. Tao Guifei was like this before, and now Tao Guier is like this. really regarded me as a bodhisattva, and repeatedly gave me trouble.

I said, "Sister Tao, if you have a better attitude today, and you just ask me to help you with something within your ability, I can consider it and help you regardless of your previous suspicions." But you opened your mouth to make such an unreasonable request, throwing me a hot potato for no reason, what do you think I have to do to help you? Or do you think that my heart is good enough to work for others like an idiot? You want me to help you get out of the palace? It's just an ordinary palace lady, if you have permission, no one can easily step out of the palace gate half a step, not to mention that you are still a criminal slave of the court. You're going to get out, it's so me. I can't do anything about it. ”

I finished speaking in one breath, and my heart was really happy. picked out all the words clearly, thinking that Tao Xu'er should retreat from the difficulty, who knew that she still didn't give up, "Don't be in a hurry to reject me first, when you listen to my words, I'm afraid that no matter how reluctant you are in your heart, you have to help me." ”

I sneered, held my forehead and said, "Really? Then tell me, what reason do I have to help you? ”

Tao Yu'er glanced at Sheng Yunjiang, Sheng Yunjiang understood, raised his thin eyebrows, walked a few steps to hold Duobu's hand, and said with a smile: "We are here, it is inconvenient for her two to talk, you come with me, wait outside."

Duobu withdrew his hand in disgust and ignored it.

Sheng Yunjiang was not annoyed, he smiled, and opened his teeth lightly: "It's windy here, and you need people to look at the wind."

After speaking, he took the lead and shook the fan out of the arch. I understood the meaning of her words, Tao Xu'er is now a criminal slave in the court, or because of the crime of fornicating with the enemy country at home, and I have a special status, so it is really not suitable to deal with her. Now, if I meet her here, it is not impossible for someone to see that she has the intention to talk about this, and then implicate me.

I understand, and Duobu should understand better. She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then squinted her eyes and looked at Tao Yu'er vigilantly, and her voice was low: "I'm just waiting at the door, if there's anything, you just call me." Also, don't talk to her too much. ”

I nodded and said yes, she briefly explained a few words, and then stepped forward to follow Sheng Yunjiang out and wait.

At this moment, there were only three people left in the deserted garden, me and Tao Xu'er, and the woman behind her in navy blue clothes. I looked at the man and asked, "Why didn't she go?"

Tao Xu'er didn't answer: "Didn't you want to ask you why you helped me?" So I'll tell you? ”

She paused, and then said: "In the late autumn of a year ago, my aunt was critically ill, and she wanted to see you before she died, and asked Cao Gongling to invite you into the palace, right?" It's a pity that you just entered the palace, and you heard the news of my aunt's death before you could see her for the last time. My aunt died suddenly, and the funeral was done in a hurry, and you probably haven't figured out why she invited you into the palace at that time, and you have to be you. ”

At the time, I did feel puzzled, but when I learned the secret hidden in the pipa, I could also deduce Tao Guifei's intentions. It's nothing more than wanting to borrow my hand to unlock some secrets, and then borrow my mouth to lead Changji to know his life experience. But her method is too troublesome, and it is not safe, in case I don't find the portrait in the pipa and the map of Kanyu depicting the topography of the mountains and rivers in Nanzhan, or even if I do, I have no intention of exploring it, and ignore all this, Tao Guifei's plan is not impossible to carry out as usual.
