In the deer leek garden, Shuangjing led Weiman onto a long bamboo bridge.

This bamboo bridge is built on a lake and leads to a small island in the middle of the lake.

Stepping on the quaint bamboo bridge, Wei Man looked at the very dim island not far away, and suddenly felt something strange in his heart, and he couldn't help but hesitate a little.

"Shuangjing," Wei Man called Shuangjing, who was leading the way, and said, "Are you sure that Fourth Miss is in front?" I don't see much light on that island, so it doesn't look like a human being. ”

"Fourth Miss is on the island," Shuangjing looked into the distance, as if looking for Wei Feng's figure, and said a little anxiously: "Third Miss, Fourth Miss is in front, the slave maid thinks that Fourth Miss may be shy and hiding...... Third Miss, let's go over quickly. ”

After that, Shuangjing stepped on the "creaking" bamboo bridge and walked a few steps first.

Although he was a little suspicious in his heart, Weiman still kept up with Shuangjing's footsteps.

Soon, the two set foot on the island.

Although it is a small island, in fact, it is just a piece of land artificially added in the lake in order to pursue artistic conception.

It's just that this island is still relatively far from the main hall, so there are only a few people Weiman met on the way here...... Looking at the dim lantern on the trail that was only a long way away, Wei Man thought that maybe the people in Lu Leek Garden didn't expect someone to come here at all.

Using his hand to separate the lush foliage that stood in his way, Viman took a few more steps forward.

There was silence all around, so silent that you could hear footsteps on the stone brick road, so silent that on a night like this, it felt like the front was dark, even terrifying......

Wei Man's heart gradually became cold, and he couldn't help but stop.

"Shuangjing!" Wei Man asked in a cold voice, "Where is the fourth young lady!" ”

Shuangjing in front of her was frightened by Wei Man, who suddenly made a sound, and paused, she slowly turned around, her face was pale, and she said, "Fourth Miss, it's in ...... Slave maid, slave maid ......"

Wei Man didn't care about anything else, turned around and walked back.

It's just that after just taking two steps, Weiman slowly retreated step by step.

A tall man dressed in a guard's costume emerged from the shadows and approached Weiman.

Wei Man looked at the tall man of about twenty years old in front of him in disbelief, and asked in a tight voice, "You, who are you?" ”

Although the tall man was wearing the clothes of the guards of the Deer Leek Garden, in the current situation, Wei Man would not be stupid enough to think that this single-handedly man was the guard sent to guard the Deer Leek Garden.

The man didn't answer, but took a few steps closer.

Wei Man stepped back step by step and asked sharply, "What do you want to do!" ”

Walking past the lanterns, until his face was all hidden in the shadows, the tall man finally stopped, he first saluted Wei Man, and then, she raised her left hand, and said in a deep voice: "Miss, the slave was sent by the prince to pick up Miss." ”

As he spoke, the tall man handed the thing in his hand to Wei Man.

Wei Man violently waved away the tall man's hand, took a few steps back, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about!" What prince? I don't know! Do you know what this place is? What am I? If you want to live, you don't want to leave quickly! ”

"Miss, the slave is really sent by the prince," the tall man took another step closer, and sent the thing in his hand to Wei Man's eyes, and said: "Miss, please see, this is handed over to the slave by the prince himself, and Miss will know ......it at a glance."

"Get out of here!" Wei Man slapped the man's hand away.

Because Wei Man used some strength, he saw the tall man's hand shake, and with a silver light, a very small thing jingled and rolled to the ground, and rolled away.

The tall man looked at the things that rolled into the grass with dark eyes, and then looked at Wei Man, who was full of horror, and called out: "Miss, you ......"

"Ahh Shuangjing seemed to have only reacted at this time, and suddenly called out loudly: "Ah! Help me! Help me! ”

The tall man didn't move.

Wei Man turned around and slapped Shuangjing behind him, and said fiercely: "Shut up!" ”

Shuangjing was thrown to the side of the moss-covered rockery and lay on his stomach, I don't know if it was because of fear or pain, but he didn't make a sound for a while.

"Miss, the slave is really sent by the prince," the tall man suddenly stretched out his hand, and grabbed Wei Man's wrist, and while taking Wei Man to his side, he said, "The prince asked the slave to pick up Miss ......"

At this moment, Wei Man's gaze changed suddenly, and he actually bent his knees and slammed into the middle of the tall man's lower body.

"Ahh The tall man immediately let out a painful cry and bent down slightly.

Wei Man then raised his foot and kicked the same part of the tall man fiercely.

At this moment, the tall man seemed to be in pain, and he looked like he couldn't scream, and bent down and slowly fell down to the bluestone road.

Wei Man still didn't let go, raised his foot again, and just kicked it, but suddenly heard "Ah! Yes! Exclamations.

Shuangjing, who was full of panic, saw Wei Man looking at her, his face changed, and he immediately shouted: "Help! Help me! Save ......"

On the shore of the lake, there was a message: "What's the matter...... Where's the call for help...... In the middle of the lake...... Come and see ......."

A drop of hot sweat accidentally dripped from Wei Man's forehead into his eyes, and it hurt hotly.

Can't be here, can't be found here...... Wei Man's heart had a voice in his heart, and he said to himself over and over again......

Rushing over in two steps, Weiman hugged the head of Shuangjing, who was screaming, and without thinking about it, he slammed into the rockery on the side.

One time!

"Save ......," Shuangjing continued.

Not enough, again!

"Ah......h

The chaotic creaking of the bamboo bridge is getting closer.

Wei Man gritted his teeth, hugged Shuangjing's head, and slammed it hard against the stone wall again.

As soon as he let go of his hand, Shuangjing immediately slid limply to the ground.

"Let's go up and see what's going on......" I heard the sound of a group of people stepping onto the island.

Wei Man didn't care about anything else, grabbed a shining silver thing in the bushes, and rushed to the other side of the island in a panic.

The island is in the middle of the lake, and there is a bamboo bridge leading to the shore in the north and south, and Weiman wants to sneak away quietly from the other side, but when Weiman has just run a short distance, he sees two figures on the bamboo bridge in front of him carrying lanterns to the island.

"Yikes! There are people here...... Yes! It's a guard......"

Wei Man turned her head, although she couldn't see it, but she felt that those people were coming towards her step by step.

Forward and backward strikes!

What to do, what to do......

At this moment, Wei Man's face was covered with sweat, and his heart was beating like a drum.

……

In the main hall.

A basin of cold well water poured down from the top of Du Ziyu's head.

Du Ziyu, who was lying on the table, was startled and raised her head in a daze.

The hall resounded with snickering and joking.

Du Ziyu squinted her eyes and looked around, but she smiled stupidly and said happily: "It's raining!" After that, without waiting for everyone's reaction, he fell down again and fell asleep on the table.

"Huh!" The third eldest princess laughed a few times meaninglessly, and said, "It seems that Miss Du Si is really drunk!" ”

"Oh, there's no way around it," Shen Manzhu played with a lushy jade flute in her hand, and said coolly: "Since Miss Du Si is drunk like this, then, Miss Du Si's talent can only let Miss Du Er continue to play on her behalf." ”

"What my cousin said is true," the third eldest princess smiled and took the jade flute in Shen Manzhu's hand, and said in a loud voice: "Come on, give this flute to Miss Du Er, and let Miss Du Er play a song for everyone." ”

Immediately, a palace maid stepped forward to take the jade flute in the hand of the third eldest princess.

"I beg Her Royal Highness the Third Eldest Princess to forgive her sins," Du Qingyu knelt on the ground, kowtowed heavily, and said eagerly: "The courtiers really don't know how to blow this flute." ”

"Smack!" The third eldest princess slammed the cup in her hand to the ground, and said in a strange voice: "No? You say you won't! Hehehe...... Bengong remembers that Du Guifei praised you for your versatility at the beginning, but she simply played a song with a flute, but you said that you wouldn't ...... Don't you want to give face to Hongu! ”

"The courtiers don't dare, even if the courtiers have the courage to deceive His Royal Highness," Du Qingyu kowtowed again, gritted her teeth and begged: "Xiao only has the fourth sister, the courtiers really won't, ask Her Royal Highness the Third Eldest Princess to forgive ......"

"Humph!" The third eldest princess interrupted Du Qingyu's pleading and said sharply: "This palace will tell you!" Whether you will or not, Hongu says you will, and you will ...... You're either going to play a song to Hongu now, or else, hum! Don't want either of your hands! ”

As soon as these words came out, the noise in the hall was silent for a moment.

Shen Manzhu's face was as usual, as if he had known that there would be such a result.

The second eldest princess glanced at Du Qingyu with an unbearable face, and then faced the third eldest princess and whispered: "Imperial sister, this, this is not appropriate......

"Humph!" The third eldest princess didn't seem to hear the words of the second eldest princess, and shouted, "Someone! ”

As soon as the third eldest princess's words fell, two strong eunuchs emerged from the side hall and went directly to Du Qingyu's position.

"Second Miss Du, I advise you not to make Her Royal Highness the Third Eldest Princess angry, this flute is not a difficult thing for you to come, you don't hide it, play a song quickly," Shen Manzhu raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Otherwise, you can't have those two jade hands." ”

"Your Highness, the courtiers really won't!" Du Qingyu left two lines of tears in his eyes, and sobbed: "The courtiers really didn't deceive His Highness......

A cold-blooded smile appeared on the corner of the third eldest princess's mouth, and she raised her voice: "It seems that you don't want your hand...... What are you doing in a daze! Don't hurry up yet! ”

With the voice of the third eldest princess, the two strong eunuchs went around to Du Qingyu's side, one grabbed her two arms and pressed her to prevent her from struggling, and the other held a stick and raised it high, looking like it was about to be smashed into Du Qingyu's tender little hand.
