After Su Ruhui was relegated to Qiongtong Palace, in addition to Gan Ran, only Zhou Yi'er sent Xiuying to send some things, but Zhou Yi'er herself did not come, Xiuying explained that Zhou Yi'er wanted to serve the Queen Mother and couldn't leave for a while.

Su Ruhui knew in her heart that this was because of Emperor Changtai's heavy punishment, and they were worried about being implicated. Especially Zhou Yi'er, although the status of the queen's niece is noble, she also has to worry about not letting things affect the queen. In addition, no one cared about it, and even Concubine Gu Xian, who seemed to like her very much, did not interfere again.

She lived in the Chunsheng Palace so degradingly, but fortunately, after Gan Ran, she sent someone to send a bunch of medicinal herbs, and Xiuwan served very dedicatedly, so that she did not let the court staff fall into the root of the disease.

In the blink of an eye, it was Chongyang, and the palace was crowded with the Queen Mother and Changtai to go to the city tower as usual, as well as some festive banquets. If it weren't for the matter of Lord Huaizhen, Su Ruhui would have been worried about how to dress herself at the moment, but now she was just lonely and tired in the Chunsheng Palace.

Even Xiuwan couldn't help but sigh secretly when she saw her sitting in the tent.

Because of Chongyang, the food in the imperial dining room has seen meat, since Su Ruhua lived in the Chunsheng Palace, the original concubine treatment immediately dropped sharply to a few plates of green vegetables and tofu, the imperial dining room said respectfully, saying that Miss Su was injured by the court staff, and it was best not to touch the meaty things, so as not to affect the wound.

The meaning of the words was nothing more than to ridicule Su Ruhui for losing the emperor's heart.

Xiuwan swallowed her anger, and when she came back, she didn't tell Su Ruhui these words, or the last time Xiuying came over, the two of them thought that Su Ruhui was asleep, and they chirped in the outer hall, and Su Ruhui heard it.

Su Ruhui didn't even have the strength to be angry now, and her mind was full of thoughts about how to get out of this game. lost the emperor's heart, but she is still in the palace, although she knows that if she is expelled from the palace, her future will be over, and an unvirtuous reputation can make it difficult for a woman to marry into a good family, not to mention that the emperor scolded her personally, but she was told to die in the palace for such a lifetime, but she said that she was unwilling to say anything, Su Ruhui is only eight years old now, how can she accept such a cruel fate?

On the day of Chongyang, in addition to two plates of vegetarian dishes, there was an extra plate of prawns and a plate of osmanthus cake in the food box. Although it looks like it was hastily made, it is the most decent meal in so many days.

Su Ruhui pinched her toothbrush, only to feel bitter in her mouth.

Thinking of the bland gaze of Emperor Tai that day, it was a kind of blandness that regarded the hundreds of years of honor and power of the Su family as nothing, when the imperial power was strong, the family gate valve was all avoided, and the Su family, what was it?

She sighed deeply and gently picked up a clump of greens. At this moment, outside the Chunsheng Palace, two sneaky figures rushed in quickly.

"Ru Ei!" At first, the person was a little taller, probably because he was anxious, so he actually rushed before the bright yellow robe, and shouted before he entered the hall.

Su Ruhui was struck by lightning, her hands shook, her teeth fell to the ground, and the person who came was wearing a vermilion dress, although she was only ten years old, she had already revealed the atmosphere of her sword eyebrows, it was her compatriot third brother, Su Rufeng!

"Third brother! How did you end up here? Seeing Su Rufeng, Su Ruhua was not happy and surprised, although the atmosphere of Dayong was far more open than that of the previous dynasty, it was not impossible for the princes in the palace to set foot in the inner court after they moved. But Su Rufeng is a foreign minister, he is already over ten years old and almost eleven years old, and the crime of trespassing in the harem must be deducted from being caught by someone with a heart, so he will be deducted from the hat of the harem of fornication!

"Don't worry, I brought him here alone." The warm voice came from behind Su Rufeng, and the Su family brothers and sisters noticed the existence of Gan Lin, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to ask for guilt, the prince didn't care, waved his hand to let the two of them get up, and said with a smile, "Miss Su, today my father gave a banquet to the ministers of the court, Guanghua Pavilion, there are many people, and no one will notice that Lone brought your brother out." ”

Su Ruhui didn't expect that the prince who looked quiet and solemn was not a person who abided by the rules, but now was not the time to think about these irrelevant questions, she kowtowed seriously and said sincerely: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

"It's okay, this Qiongtong Palace, Lone hasn't come in yet, take this opportunity to go around, you brothers and sisters have a good talk." Gan Lin was very understanding, and pointed to Xiuwan, who was serving Su Ruhua for dinner, "You come to lead the way for Lone." ”

When Xiuwan led Gan Lin away, Su Ruhui refused to hide it anymore, pulled Su Rufeng's sleeve and cried.

Su Rufeng had seen the food on the table clearly as early as when Xiuwan left, thinking of how picky the pearl in the palm of the family was usually, but the treatment during the Double Ninth Festival could not even catch up with ordinary people, and his face turned blue with anger, and it was easy to appease Su Ruhui's emotions, Su Rufeng took a deep breath and said: "It is rumored outside the palace that you have lost the emperor's heart, although you have not been kicked out of the palace, you will live in the palace for a lifetime!" Father and mother are anxious, but our Su family does not have a mother in the palace, and my mother has asked to see the queen mother several times, but the queen mother is not sure, and when I met the prince today, I realized that it was fortunate that you were not sent to the palace - what is going on? ”

"Didn't you say it outside the palace?" Su Ruhui thought about the grievances and shed tears again.

"It's just that it's too much, there's everything, we don't believe you'll be like that, and today I begged the prince to bring me here." Su Rufeng felt pity for his sister very much, but he knew that there was not much time to meet, so he urged, "Don't cry first, tell me about it, maybe the family can give you an idea, it's really not good, please ask your father to beg Your Majesty, just send you out of the palace." The prince will be back in a moment, and we will have to go back to the feast. ”

Although Su Ruhui felt that all the grievances came up together when she saw her brother, she was sensitive after all, and when she heard Su Rufeng vaguely say that there were many legends outside, she knew that most of them were not good words. She thought for a while, and said what had happened, Su Rufeng raised her eyebrows in surprise after hearing this: "The county lord of Huaizhen was playing with that Song Caisu, and he didn't see the road clearly and hit the soft sedan chair, causing you to fall and injure yourself, but Your Majesty blamed you for giving the county lord Huaizhen anger?" ”

His voice was slightly higher, and Su Ruhui was so frightened that he hurriedly covered his mouth: "Third brother, don't you die if you can't get out of the news?" ”

"How can Your Majesty treat my Su family's daughter like this?" Su Rufeng's voice lowered, but he still couldn't hide the anger in it!

"He is a king, and our family is a minister." Su Ruhui cried again as she spoke, "The third brother went back and asked my father, can you take me out of the palace!" ”

Su Rufeng and this sister are not much different in age, but they grew up together, and they were born from the same mother, they have always loved their sister the most, and they were sad and resentful when they saw this, he remembered that when he was at home, his sister was the least crying among the girls of the same race, but he remembered his parents' advice, and he still said ruthlessly: "Ruhua, my father asked me to tell you, even if you really don't want to stay in the palace, but you still have to endure it for a while, at least wait for the current rumors to fade before leaving the palace, otherwise your reputation will ......be ruined."

He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was very clear, this is also the Su family's consideration for Su Ruhui, now there are rumors everywhere inside and outside the palace that Miss Su has hated the emperor, has been severely punished, and has become a laughing stock among the magnates of the imperial capital, if Su Wanhai picks Su Ruhua out of the palace now, it is no different than being directly kicked out of the palace.

This not only aggravated the humiliation of the Su family, but also dealt a heavy blow to Su Ruhui's future future.

Su Ruhui thought that it was just a trivial matter, that the county lord of Huaizhen was far less injured than herself, but she had to bear such a heavy consequences by herself, and she cried even more sadly.

Su Rufeng held back her grief, comforted her for a long time, and said to Su Ruhua: "Now you can rest assured that Xiuwan, who serves you, is outside the palace, her mother has asked someone to take her into the house, so that her father is a housekeeper, her younger brother, and her father has also arranged errands." ”

Su Ruhui didn't expect Xiuwan to follow from Renshou Palace to Qiongtong Palace and such a thing, so she couldn't help crying and said in surprise: "Didn't you say that our Su family has no one in the harem?" ”

"It's that there is no such help as the harem master." In order to calm her heart, Su Rufeng simply told her, "Who doesn't accept a few palace people in the palace as eyeliner to find out the news?" The Su family has never been out of the mother, so they can only buy some palace people, this Xiuwan is one of them, but she followed you here this time and it was almost exposed, anyway, the Su family has no other meaning, just hope that you are safe and sound when you are in the palace, if you can't stay, you can also leave the palace safely. ”

Su Ruhui held back her tears and nodded, and Su Rufeng took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms: "It is said that the palace is very white with red tops, and I only knew when I saw the food on your table today, but we can't help it, my mother asked me to bring you more silver, it's really not okay to let Xiuwan go to the imperial dining room to spend a lot of money." ”

The brother and sister said a few more words, and Xiuwan outside the hall had already led the prince Gan Lin back, and after Gan Lin entered the hall, he nodded to Su Rufeng: "Zi'e, the banquet in Guanghua Pavilion is almost over, go back with Gu." ”

"Thank you, Prince!" The brothers and sisters of the Su family saluted again and thanked him, and Su Ruhui stood in front of the hall, watching Su Rufeng leave while turning around, full of sadness.

When the others left Qiongtong Palace, Su Ruhui didn't have the heart to eat, so he took a small half of the silver ticket and handed it to Xiuwan: "You work hard, when you go to the imperial dining room tomorrow, get me some decent meals, and make up for yourself, you have suffered a lot during this time, and you have lost a lot of weight." ”

"Where is Miss, the whole family of the slave maid has a good life thanks to Mrs. An, it is right to serve Miss, but Miss please want to open some, there are Wu Dehou and Mrs. here, Miss has been wronged for a long time, don't hurt your body is serious." Xiuwan took the silver ticket and knelt down and said earnestly.

Su Ruhui looked at her quietly for a moment, nodded and said, "I'll take care of it." ”

She bit her lip, now it's just a word, wait for the rumors to subside, and her father will take her out of the palace by himself, even if she quits the palace so undignifiedly, she won't be able to marry someone with a high lintel in the future, but with the Su family's family situation, she may not be wronged. Xiuwan is right, she is the princess of the Su family, the pearl of Wu Dehou and Mrs. Erpin Ming'an, and she will not be wronged for long.

It's just that Su Ruhui didn't expect that the few tears she shed when she talked to Su Rufeng made things change......
