Chapter 256: Xiaolu

"Ghosts! Hell yes! A scream rang out in the Imperial Garden.

I saw a girl in a pink cotton coat, screaming and hugging a plum tree on the side of the road.

There were two palace people standing behind her, and they said to the girl with a pleasant face: "Don't be afraid, princess, that's not a ghost!" There will be no dirt in the blue sky and white day. ”

The man, whom Princess Sinin called a ghost, had a face full of terrifying cyan patterns, a pair of blue-green eyes, a fur hat, and a colorful dress made of shredded fur and rags, and his skirt was lifted up and tucked into his belt, and he was running on the road.

Behind her, two able-bodied aunts caught up and stopped the running ghost by the arm from behind.

The ghost struggled, but was held back.

The ghost shouted in a slightly strange tone, "I must run past her, and I must not let God bring disaster upon me." ”

Although she heard it inexplicably, Princess Sining probably could tell that the one on the road was a person, not a ghost.

The two aunts who were holding the ghost said, "Miss Hai, the slaves and maids have been offended. After saying that, one of them pressed the henna beads, and the other pulled her skirt out of the belt and smoothed it finely.

Qian Ning came out at this time, looked at Hai Nazhu carefully, tilted her head and said, "Who are you, how are you dressed so strangely." ”

In front, Yan Qingge has disappeared, and if Hai Nazhu chases after her, she will definitely not be able to catch up.

She ignored Qian Ning, and hit her elbow on the chest of the aunt who was pulling her, and the aunt who hit her snorted and let go of her.

She stared at the two aunts with those oozing green eyes, and scolded: "You have made me unlucky for next year!" Only seeing blood can cleanse God of his aversion to me. ”

Hearing her words, the faces of the people on the field all changed.

In the palace, there are a lot of taboos, especially in speaking, unlucky words can't be said. Seeing blood, such a fierce word, no one will say it at all, Hai Nazhu is so unscrupulous, shocking a group of people speechless.

Qian Ning took a step back and said to the two palace maids behind her, "Let's go." ”

She wanted to see the excitement on Hainazhu's side. But Ha Na Joo is so stupid, she can't stay any longer, who knows if it will set her body on fire.

Qian Ning walked along the path and walked forward, if she guessed correctly, Yan Qingge, who had just flashed on the road, should have gone to the direction of the small house where the guests were entertained in the imperial garden.

After a short time, Qian Ning came to the small house.

I saw that the small house was not very big, and the straw mats on both sides to protect from the wind and rain had been put down, and someone must be inside.

Qian Ning smiled contentedly, walked to the entrance of the grass house, and looked at it, and saw that there were three people sitting inside, laughing under the service of the palace maid, and one of them was Yan Qingge.

She probed her brain and was immediately discovered.

Yan Qingge recognized that it was Qian Ning, sighed, stood up, walked to the door, and said, "Princess Qian Ning, are you also walking around the Imperial Garden today?" ”

"Yes! I just saw you, Sister Yan, and I came over to say thank you. Qian Ning said with a smile, jumped up the stone steps, and came to Yan Qingge's side.

She looked curiously at the two women inside.

Shui Ying recognized that it was Qian Ning, saluted to Qian Ning, and said softly: "The Shui clan has seen the sixth princess. ”

It was the first time Ling Xiao had seen Qian Ning, and he also saluted and said, "The Ling family has seen the sixth princess. ”

Qian Ning wrung her fingers embarrassedly, gave them a return salute one by one, looked up and said to Yan Qingge, "Is Sister Yan entertaining?" Na Sinin didn't bother. After saying that, he jumped and left.

At first, Yan Qingge didn't understand what Qian Ning meant by thanking her, but after thinking about it for a while, a clear smile appeared on her face.

Shui Ying waited for Yan Qingge to come back and asked, "How did you and this little princess meet?" ”

"Once I went to the Imperial Garden, I met her by accident, and the two of them met. Later, she helped me once, and after coming and going, it was quite a bit of a friendship. ”

Ling Xiao was puzzled: "Then why does she want to thank you?" ”

"She helped me that time, and it was probably because Aunt Xia Fan knew about it, so she replaced the palace maids and eunuchs who neglected her around her, and it should be for this that she thanked me." Yan Qingge explained.

In the past, Qian Ning was always dressed in shabby and old, with a small face and a thin face, and there was no one behind her. Seeing her this time, she was not only dressed delicately and decently, her face was ruddy, but she was also followed by two gentle-looking palace maids, and her life seemed to be good.

The queen will definitely not take care of Qianning, and after thinking about it, only Xia Fen will do this, and she has the ability to do so.

Shui Ying praised: "Aunt Xia Fan is really good, poor Princess Qianning has no mother at a young age." I had seen her twice before, and she was a ghostly child and a ragged shirt, which scared me. ”

Ling Xiao sighed: "This is still in the palace, someone is in charge, after the war outside, there are many orphans who have lost their parents, this winter, every day I hear the news that children are freezing to death and starving to death on the streets." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has asked someone to set up a nursery, but unfortunately many children would rather beg outside than go to the nursery." Shui Ying couldn't help but say.

"Why? There is food and drink in the nursery, why don't they want to stay there, but want to freeze and starve to death outside, don't they know that there is a place for the nursery? Ling Xiao was puzzled.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... Alas! Shui Ying sighed, looked around, it was all her own people, and then said: "It was good for those children to stay there at first, but later, I don't know which adult interceded with the prince, and every month some children were recruited to work in the suburban Zhuangzi." I go more and come back less. Some say the children were left into slavery, others say they were beaten to death by their masters......"

Yan Qingge and Ling Xiao glanced at each other, and they both saw the astonishment in each other's eyes.

It's no wonder that the children would rather wander outside, freeze and starve to death, than go back to the nursery.

"Doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know about this?" Yan Qingge asked puzzled.

"Of course Your Highness does." Shui Ying smiled bitterly: "I still listen to the women of Chuxiu Palace." Since they all knew, of course His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knew. ”

The three of them couldn't guess the prince's thoughts, and the scene suddenly became a little cold.

In order to increase the atmosphere, Ling Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk about some fun!" Shui Ying, the right minister of the central and central government wrote to ask the emperor for permission to let Ling Lie inherit the throne, do you know? ”

"I see." Shui Ying smiled: "It's all good for you and your eldest brother to operate outside." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has treated me a lot better in the past few days, and asked you to come to the palace to see me. As long as the relatives outside are powerful, we in the palace will immediately have a different life. ”

Ling Xiao smiled and patted Shui Ying's arm: "When Ling Lie really inherits the throne, your good days will come." Isn't Yuan Qianqian very arrogant? Bullied you several times. When the time comes, with me and your eldest brother behind as guarantors, you stomp on her face fiercely, and all of you will take revenge. ”

Ling Xiao's tantrum like a charcoal explosion still hasn't changed, making Shui Ying and Yan Qingge laugh.

The three of them were laughing, and suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps outside.

I saw the door, Qian Ning ran in with a red face, panting for breath, and said, "Oh no, the monster and the prince's brother have passed through and are coming to you." ”

Yan Qingge, Ling Xiao, and Shui Ying all looked at Qian Ning in confusion.

Qian Ning exhaled, and anxiously explained to Yan Qingge: "It's the blue-faced and green-eyed monster who chased you when you came in the morning, I just saw her pestering the prince's brother, saying that the prince's brother promised her before, as long as she takes you out, the prince's brother will allow her to do one thing." She asked the prince's brother to help her kill the two aunts around her now, so that she would be drenched in blood and drive away the bad luck of the coming year. ”

Listening to Qian Ning's words, a layer of frost suddenly appeared on Yan Qingge's face.

"Didn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince go to the household department today? He used to go out on business and not come back until the evening. Shui Ying muttered.

The three sisters glanced at each other, and immediately saw a meaning in each other's eyes: it was obvious that the prince was calculating them.

Yan Qingge stood up, shook his head and said, "I shouldn't have come here today." I'll go back first. ”

"I said how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince summoned Ling Xiao into the palace for nothing, I thought I was exposed." Shui Ying also suddenly understood why the prince suddenly felt sorry for her loneliness in the palace and asked her sister-in-law to enter the palace to meet her. At first, she was worried that she had not hidden the prince's pregnancy after all.

Ling Xiao's face was also a look of slaughter.

For this prince, Ling Xiao, Yan Qingge, and Shui Ying don't have the slightest good impression, and now they have a lot of disgust!

"Come back quickly." Ling Xiao and Shui Ying drove Yan Qingge away, the prince was not good, he really asked him to meet Yan Qingge, I don't know what trouble is going to happen.

"Yes, yes. Sister Yan, come with me, I am most familiar with the path of the Imperial Garden, and I promise to lead you out quietly. Qian Ning's eyes flashed and said to Yan Qingge.

Yan Qingge smiled apologetically at Ling Xiao and Shui Ying, followed behind Qian Ning with Ruyi, and left the cottage.

The Qianning people are big ghosts, and others are not guarding against her as a child, so she knows a lot of secrets in this palace.

With Yan Qingge, they didn't meet anyone on the way, and they went out of the imperial garden smoothly.

Standing in front of the gate of the Imperial Garden, Qian Ning waved her hand to Yan Qingge, said goodbye to her with a smile, and said, "My two palace maids are still waiting for me inside, Sister Yan, go back quickly!" With that, he turned around and slipped back in.

Yan Qingge had mixed feelings in his heart, and with wishful thinking, he hurriedly returned to Fengzao Palace.

Xia Fan saw that Yan Qingge had only been out for half an hour, and then came back again, and couldn't help but glance at Yan Qingge in surprise.

Yan Qingge didn't hide it and told her about Fang Cai.

Xia Fanting's face was wonderful, and she knelt down and kowtowed to Yan Qingge: "It's the old slave's fault!" If it weren't for the old slave calling Miss Yan to the Imperial Garden today, Miss Yan would not have encountered such a thing. ”

"How can I blame you." Yan Qingge hurriedly helped Xia Fan up: "It's a blessing that people have calculated us like this, and we can take it away." ”

Xia Fan's face was ashamed, and she said, "Thank you Miss Yan for your magnanimity." Xia Fan is going to find out why His Highness is so desperate to see you today. ”
