I was overwhelmed by the heavy fragments of stone tiles on my body, and there was a loud sound of burning wood all around me.

The beams and wooden frames of the house were burned by the fire, and layers of blue and white smoke fell, and sparks splashed in the dust and smoke, and the night was hideous and dark.

The blinding light of the fire fiercely spitted out the hyacinth, and finally the sound of an ambulance horn could be heard in the distance.

My body was getting heavier and heavier, and in a heart-rending cry, my hands and feet were numb and unconscious, and even I could clearly feel that my life was exhausted little by little in my body from exhaustion and pain.

I sighed, thinking that I probably couldn't hold it anymore, so I simply closed my eyes......

I felt my body sink rapidly, there was a "whoosh" sound in the air, the dark sky, the dark sight, everything was pitch black......

Then a blinding light almost pierced the membranes of my eyes and the air around me became less and less, my heart raced, my body shook violently, and I had no choice but to exhale heavily.

I was so happy and scared in my heart, didn't I die?

When I opened my eyes again, the scene of the fire was gone, and I was greeted by a dimly lit cell.

I was so shocked that the bullets jumped, and I didn't know what it was.

Looking around, I found a bunch of people lying on the ground, blood all over the floor, followed by a dull pain in my chest.

My stomach turned over the river and the sea, and the fishy smell in my stomach surged upward, and my eyes were black, and the fishy smell rolled like a grinding wheel crushing my stomach.

The body exceeded the limit, a mouth full of black blood sprayed all over the ground, and the face was also all over, and there was an obvious smell in the blood.

At this moment, sparse footsteps sounded outside the door of this huge cell, and after a while, a group of people poured into the door.

To my surprise, there were a few children at the head.

I was not conscious at the time, but I saw a little boy in a beautiful dress but with a fierce face directing a group of adults to carry out the two little girls who were lying on the ground with a slight movement and anger out of the cell.

When it was lifted to me, I moved my fingers, my arm was sore, and I grabbed a piece of the corner of my clothes. I glanced up, and I just looked into a bottomless black pupil. Those eyes seemed to shine invisibly with a bright and sharp light, and he looked at me coldly and even with a little disgust, and then my blood-stained dirty hands were thrown off by him.

The more I ran away, the more he clung to me and didn't let me escape his sight.

Tonight the night was charming and starry, and a man walked into the cell, and I took one look at it, and without thinking about it, I was ready to turn around and leave.

But she was not afraid of death and grabbed me, and said with a polite smile: "Miss Zhu, I am taking you out, Shui Yue has something to say." ”

I stopped and replied to her as gently as I could, "I wonder what Sister Shuiyue commands?" ”

Hearing me call her "sister", she smiled a little proudly, tilted her head slightly, and took me out smoothly: "I don't know if Miss Zhu has heard of something," she looked at me with her charming eyes, "I don't know if the valuable things in a few rooms in the West Garden were stolen by someone who is not afraid of death, I heard that several rooms in His Highness's other courtyard have also been poisoned, His Royal Highness is investigating this matter, I wish the girl herself to be careful, don't move around at will." ”

I thought to myself, in fact, this matter really has nothing to do with me, this mansion, this room is not mine, and the things are naturally not mine.

Zhong Lixun didn't want to admit it, the people in his house were afraid that I was a "dark horse" maid or a dancing girl or something, and I didn't bother to care, so I just ate and drank according to his arrangement.

Our Shuiyue girl didn't know, I looked at her courteous smiling face, and also smiled: "Oh, I see, thank you Sister Shuiyue." ”

She was irritated by my unresponsive smile, her eyes were red, and her charming eyes stared me up and down, probably because she was very unhappy with me, and couldn't help but say: "Zhu Qing, let's open the window and say something." To tell you the truth, you are just a nameless person in His Highness's mansion, even if His Highness is willing to take some time to look at you more now, you are not worthy of being a concubine in the end. If you know each other, I can also ask the bamboo butler to find you another place to stay. ”

After saying that, she straightened her bright dress and raised her chin to look at me.

She said this no less than ten times, chewing and chewing on it just for the same thing, and I was annoyed to hear it, and I didn't bother to pay attention to her.

I really had nothing to say, I looked at the white moon hanging for a long time, and yawned a lot.

She saw my sleepy and confused eyes, sneered with satisfaction, and walked away.

I saw that she was gone, and I wanted to go back to my room.

Walk through the long hallway along the moonlight, yawning and squinting towards your room.

As I walked, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a pink-clad maid sneakily behind a tall rockery by the pool, and then a series of sounds came from inside.

I shivered curiously, feeling my body's blood boiling, and the temperature was so hot that my face was flushed.

I gently stepped on the ground and moved towards the rockery, carefully lying behind the rough stones, and suddenly felt that this voyeuristic feeling was too good, and my heart couldn't help but be more excited, and I had to work hard.

The moonlight sprinkled on the water by the pool, and in my efforts, I finally saw two people behind the rockery.

Belch...... It's still a man and a woman cheating on the two, it is estimated that I moved too much, and the two people who hugged each other and kissed fiercely also found me. The two pairs of eyes stared at me in horror in the night light, and I quickly covered my ears, and then two high-decibel screams resounded in the quiet of the night.

My bitter gourd face was embarrassed, and my face turned red.

The man was too angry to speak, and stared at me in a fit of rage, not daring to reproach me for doing something humiliating. He only comforted the woman in his arms with his cold hand, and the maid also blushed after screaming, and quickly put on her dress while glancing at me with her eyes.

I turned my head at random, saw a pink embroidered silk handkerchief on the ground, and subconsciously took two steps to pick it up.

I stared at it for a few seconds, then smiled and apologized: "No, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to peek, and ......"

They roared in unison: "Sick! Don't get out of the way yet! ”

Forget it, I originally wanted to tell you that something was lost, but now this little silk handkerchief is probably not wanted, so I simply stuffed it into my pocket, don't be in vain.

"Okay......" I turned around in embarrassment with a big apple blush.

Before he could take two steps, there was another movement behind him, but this time there was a lot of movement, and the staff was strong enough.

is the scene at the beginning, after saying that sentence, the cheating man and woman also knelt on the ground in cold sweat.

In the dark of night, a guard with a bright lantern stood in a line by the pool. As soon as the cold wind blew, although I stretched my head at the beginning of summer, I shivered firmly.

The misty night fragrance floats in the dark, and the pear blossom perfume is light and soothing, shattered into a clear shadow.

The man was long and jade, dressed casually in a black bedrobe, and his body was surrounded by a lazy and intoxicated atmosphere. There was a compelling anger rolling in his phoenix's eyes, like a sword shadow flying flowers, sharp and profound.

It's Zhong Lixun.

He walked over to me, and the two men beside him had been disposed of one after another, and soon there were only me and him left at the pool.

The corners of a pair of beautiful Danfeng eyes were raised upward, and the tail had been dyed black because of anger, and the black stained with anger was like a river of turbulent water coming straight towards me.

He looked down to the silk handkerchief on my chest, a strange color flashed in his eyes, but he only said one sentence: "I don't rest in the room in the middle of the night, just to watch a play, looking for this thing?" ”

I was so frightened by his flashing look that I couldn't help but grasp the corners of my clothes with my fingers, and I was frightened for a while, and I barely looked at his face and smiled: "Haha, I'm just going out for a walk." Also, thisβ€”this is just me carelessly...... Picked up. ”

Zhong Lixun was very strange that he didn't get angry last night, and I didn't bother to think about it, so I was sent out of the house by the housekeeper in the house early the next morning.

Miao Lan helped me to step into the carriage, and the figures of the group and the majestic mansion gradually disappeared behind me.

Shangling Street is wide, when passing by the Jingxing moat, small stalls and vendors pave along the road, and there are cloth children running out of the alleys holding windmills all over the street.

The freshly baked brown rock sugar gourd was shining on the sugar water, and my heart moved, so I hurriedly pulled Miaolan out of the car and rushed to the stall to buy a few and send them to my mouth.

The Bird River Bridge was even more lively, I pulled Miaolan over, and when I got closer, I found that it was a scholar who was selling paintings.

The small table stall of Aoki is covered with a large area of neat landscape and pastoral paintings and some paintings of spirit birds and yellow birds. I often listen to Xiao San and his guests studying art books with others in the Guanxuan, and I know a little bit about it.

These painters are excellent, the landscape paintings are beautiful, the brushstrokes are delicate and dusty, the sparrows are vivid, and the eyes are smart.

There were already a lot of people gathered around to look at the paintings, and several elegant literati and ink writers were full of praise on the side, first inscribed a few lines of poetry, and the handsome scholar looked happy, smiled gently, and calmly responded to the poems with them.

There are more and more people, I was trying to squeeze in and want to sell a few pairs to go back to play with Xiaosan, but there were more and more people around, and they were about to squeeze me and Xiaowei to the back.

I was so anxious that I was about to push them away when suddenly there was a loud noise in the crowd, and someone shouted angrily: "Stop, don't run!" Stop him! Someone stole my money bag! Then there was turmoil, and a short figure quickly burst out of the crowd and flashed towards the entrance of the city gate, and there was no one for a moment.

At this time, there was a crowd behind him, more fierce and faster than just now, the crowd rolled like a wave, Miaolan and I hugged tightly and rushed to the side of the road with the crowd to get out of the way.

Horses in front of them sounded hoofs, horses neighed wildly, and a man in a black dress rode a brown-haired horse. He has a jade belt and a light fur, a jade crown and a bundle of hair, and a calm complexion, which shows that his physique is strong and powerful.

Two black-clad guards rode horses to follow.

A few people on the side recognized it: "This ...... It seems to be General Wei Chi? ”

One hurriedly echoed: "Yes, it's the prince of Yasukuni who guards the border pass." ”

A look of admiration: "Well, I have been guarding the customs for a few years and now I am in a heavy position, and now I am in high spirits." ”

Soon the crowd gradually dispersed, and each went about his own business.

I patted the little man who was standing by the stunned horse just now, and said with a smile, "Go back." ”

Miaolan was stunned, and suddenly her eyes stared straight ahead: "Gong...... Miss, look, why is the scholar who bought the painting just now gone?! ”

I glanced at the empty booth and was a little confused: "It was still there." ”

At this time, I found that all the people around me were gone, leaving me and Miaolan City in place, and I was suddenly a little embarrassed.

There was a commotion at the door, and the scholar who had just bought the painting was pressed to the ground by several soldiers with a pale face.

The white and delicate face was stained with a lot of ash, and the hair was torn apart, and the whole face was covered when he pulled it, and the gray robe on his body was torn in several places.
