Out of the Detai Palace, a gust of cold wind blew, even though he had changed into a thick autumn coat, Su Ruhui still shivered.

The north wind called, and the Xinyi planted all over the Detai Hall fell the pale yellow old leaves, and the branches and flowers were all gone, leaving only the dark green leaves with the wind and rain.

Su Ruhui stood under the porch and looked at the rain outside, and sighed for no reason: "Why hasn't the rain stopped?" ”

Xiuwan urged the egret to go to the other side to get an umbrella, and when she heard this, she said: "Miss don't worry, let's go along the palace road left and right, we won't get our shoes wet, and there is still hot water boiling in the Yutang Palace, if Miss feels that the humidity is heavy, you can go back and bathe first." ”

Su Ruhui nodded a little absent-mindedly, and was about to step down the steps, but Gan Ran and Gan Tang, who were left by the Queen Mother, also came out, she made a salute, at this moment the two brothers couldn't see the mustard of Fang Cai at all, Gan Tang nodded at her with a spring breeze on his face, Gan Ran raised his hand slightly and said a word, and didn't look at it much, so he passed by with Gan Tang, and the people around the two princes were neat, and they had already picked up the umbrella and followed.

Su Ruhui paused for a moment before stepping down the steps, and after returning to the Yutang Palace, he ordered to take a bath: "The rain is too strong, and when I go out, I feel like my dress is soaked in water." ”

"Miss rest assured, the changed dresses are all placed in the box, and the gaps are filled with moisture-absorbing powder bags, and the outside is densely wrapped in oiled paper, but this will not be the case." Xiuwan waited for her to take a bath, changed into a moon-white skirt, wore a dark red coat outside, stood in front of the bronze mirror and looked, her skin was like jade, her hair was dyed like ink, Xiuwan took a dry handkerchief and carefully dried her hair, and then loosely pulled a fallen bun.

Su Ruhui walked back to the room with silk shoes, took a silk hairpin on the bun, and took a warm jade table into her sleeve, exhaled slightly, and took advantage of Xiuwan's instructions to prepare a long-overdue lunch for her before entering the inner room, quietly flashed into the tent, and turned out the paper ball that she had secretly hidden when Xiuwan was preparing the hot water for bathing just now from under the pillow.

The paper ball was stuffed to her when Gan Ran passed by her, and it was very scribbled on it, and only three words were written, Qiongtong Palace.

Su Ruhui frowned slightly, took the flint from the side, lit a candle and burned the paper, Xiuwan came in and invited her to dinner, and said strangely: "Miss burned something?" What about a puff of smoke? ”

"I see that the room is also very damp, so I want to smoke some incense, but these things are in your care, and I don't know where to put the incense when I just light the candle." Su Ruhua said lightly.

Xiu Wanqi said: "Su Xiang and Youlan Xiang are both in their original places. ”

"I went into the palace last time and brought a box of benzoin from the master, I wanted to try that, but I forgot where to put it for a while."

"I see, the box of incense was given by Xue Nushi, and the slave thought that it must be very precious, and the quantity was not much, so she deliberately put it in other places, so as not to let Miss Zhou and the Lord of Danzhu know each other well, and if you want to light incense, you will find it and ask for it, which will make Miss embarrassed." Xiuwan hurriedly explained.

Su Ru's picture book just mentioned it casually, and said: "It's thoughtful that you think, this box of incense was specially brought to the master when Gu Shibo returned to Beijing to take up his post, there is only a small box in total, and my box is still specially divided by the master who loves me, but it makes Gu Shibo feel distressed." ”

After lunch like this, Su Ruhui walked around the inner room alone, changed into boots, and called Xiuwan in: "I want to go out." ”

"Where is Miss going?" Xiuwan looked at the wind and rain outside, and said distressedly, "If it's not an urgent matter, Miss might as well wait for the rain to be lighter?" ”

"I mean going out alone."

Xiuwan was stunned, but then whispered: "Is it the King of Chu?" ”

"That's right, so I don't want anyone else to know." Su Ruhui glanced outside the door, Xiuwan understood, quietly walked to the door and listened carefully, and shook her head at her.

"You go out and tell them I'm tired and want to sleep, and whoever comes." Su Ruhui said to her, "If you can't stop it, like the Queen Mother, she said that I would go outside and walk alone." ”

"Where did the young lady go? If there is anything to be done, the slave or maid will tell you. Xiuwan said busily.

"I don't know where I'll go in a while, and you're my personal palace maid, if you're really caught by someone with a heart, it's better not to come and find it." Su Ruhua said, "That's it, you go out." ”

Xiuwan was surprised: "How can that young lady come out ......" Before she finished speaking, Xiuwan saw Su Ruhui pick up a silver fox trimmed cloak that had just been turned out on the side and put it on, stepped on the embroidered stool neatly, and stepped onto the desk in one step!

Then, Su Ruhui, who is known as virtuous and dignified, jumped over the windowsill, only to hear a few dull sounds, and the person had disappeared outside the window!

"Miss......" Xiuwan looked strange, smiled bitterly, stepped forward and closed the window, lest Su Ruhui need to use it when she came back, and went out according to Su Ruhui's instructions and told the others not to come in and disturb without mentioning it.

Su Ruhui dodged out of the Jade Hall Palace, picked the road that no one usually walked to a corner gate, waited patiently for a long time, and finally waited for the little yellow gate guarding here to leave temporarily, and took the opportunity to slip out.

Qiongtong Palace is close to the left, and it has been unguarded for many years, she went in smoothly, and Gan Ran did not say where Qiongtong Palace was on paper, but Su Ruhui knew it in her heart, and only went in the direction of Chunsheng Palace.

It was a late autumn and early winter afternoon, and the rain was cloudy and the sky was dark.

The north wind swept in the Qiongtong Palace, and a burst of fallen leaves fell with the cool rain, and fell to Su Ruhui's feet with a whirlwind, she held an umbrella with green silk and peach blossoms in her hand, and pulled her skirt slightly in one hand, and looked down slightly to see if the skirt had been dirty.

A pair of hands suddenly reached out from behind her and hugged her.

"You ......" Su Ruhui was startled, and then frowned and said, "No sound when you walk, it scares me!" ”

Gan Ran heard the anger in her tone, but his heart fluttered, and he chuckled: "There is no one around here, and it's nothing if you call it out." ”

Su Ruhui pushed his arm: "What's going on today?" ”

"What can happen?" Gan Ran lazily buried his head on her shoulder, "Concubine De begged my mother to succeed her for her, and Concubine Shu had a grudge against Concubine De, and the other was with the one in the Shuyi Hall in front...... And the queen doesn't want the fourth child to stand on my side, and she also wants to oppose it, so she joins forces for the time being. ”

"That's what I'm telling you about." Su Ruhui groaned, "What do I think of Yongxin Palace...... Feeling like I'm scared of you? ”

"How could they be afraid of me?" Gan Ran smiled and said, "Concubine Shu did some things in her early years, and she fell into the hands of my mother, plus some other things, so she was more polite to Xifu Palace, but it was also limited. ”

Su Ruhui was delicate, and said: "It's not a casual sentence to coax me, I remember that when I first entered the palace, the concubine was punished because of you, and the first person to sincerely intercede was the current Concubine De, Concubine Shen Shu...... If it weren't for Gan Tang giving her a look, she would be gloating. ”

"In the early years, it has been seven years since you entered the palace, and two or three years ago it was not bad if you said that you had an early life." Gan Ran said with a smile.

Su Ruhui saw that he didn't want to go into details, and he didn't ask any more, so he said, "What is the matter with you asking me to come?" ”

"Nothing." Gan Ran saw her look confused, smiled, and said lightly, "Since you and I grew up, there is no such wanton banter as when I was a child, and when something happened in the palace today, the imperial grandmother is really tired, so I want to be alone with you for a while, that's all." ”

Su Ruhui snorted and said in surprise: "Is the concubine okay?" ”

"Of course it's fine." Gan Ran smiled and said, "You have been in the palace for so many years, I am afraid that you are limited to the rules, and these six palaces are only familiar with Renshou Palace, why don't we talk about those troubles today, and I will take you to take a good look at many places?" ”

Su Ruhui was still a little puzzled, but when she heard him say this, her eyes couldn't help but light up: "What's the place?" ”

"Yes......" Gan Ran thought about it, but he was stunned, spread his hands and said with a wry smile, "This is embarrassing for me, I have been naughty since I was a child, you know, I have been to almost all the places in the Sixth Palace, but I don't know what places you like?" ”

Su Ruhui pondered for a moment and said with a smile: "I haven't been to before, how do I know where I will like it?" However, Concubine Shu mentioned the Helai Palace to the Queen Mother today...... Wanghetai, the place built by Emperor Huaizong, who did not love the six palaces and loved the white cranes in the previous dynasty...... Why don't you go there? ”
