Chapter 4: Entering the Palace Gate (1)

"What are you doing here?" Xiao Yixuan came out in a loud voice, still wearing court clothes, obviously just returned from the palace.

Ji Bingxin looked at him, his face finally softened a little, and said, "Brother Hui is back?" ”

Xiao Yixuan nodded at her and said, "Well, I was retained by the emperor and said a few more words." Before the words fell, his eyes had already turned to Xiao Yuexi's body, and he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Poofhahahahahaha!" Little sister, did you take the wrong medicine today? Dress like a girl! Hahaha......"

Ji Bingxin: "......"

Xiao Yuexi: "...... Big, brother...... Do you remember that I was originally a girl? ”

Ji Bingxin couldn't bear it anymore, and took two steps forward to take Xiao Yixuan away: "Brother Hui, I've already asked people to prepare lunch, you go eat first." ”

Fortunately, Xiao Yixuan still has some conscience, and after laughing enough, he still rescued the scene and said: "You don't care about so many things in the Department of Supervision, what are you pretending to be a lady here?" Why don't you get to work? ”

Ji Bing was so angry that he jumped to his feet and shouted: "Brother Hui! ”

Xiao Yuexi didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly rolled back to the room, and after a while, she changed into a light short outfit, and the golden hairpin and hosta on her head were all gone, combed into a bunch high, refreshing and capable. When Xiao Yuexi rolled out of the General's Mansion, she didn't see Ji Bingxin again, and she didn't know where Xiao Yixuan had gone.

Xiao Yixuan was standing at the gate with his hands in his hands, and when he saw Xiao Yuexi, he smiled dotingly at her, and said a few words to her: "Don't be like your sister-in-law, go get busy!" ”

Xiao Yuexi sighed and asked, "How long can you stay in Beijing this time?" ”

"Hmm...... It's not good to say, how? ”

Xiao Yuexi shook her head and was silent for a while before saying: "There are many things in the Department of Supervisors, I won't come back if there is nothing at home, sister-in-law ...... there."

"Don't worry, I'll tell her later."

Seeing Xiao Yuexi walk to the street and disappear on the corner, Xiao Yixuan turned around and looked at Ji Bing's melancholy gaze.

"It's windy outside, what are you doing out there?"

Ji Bingxin was angry and helpless, frowned and whispered: "Brother Hui, no one can protect her like this in the future!" ”

Xiao Yixuan sighed and read the sentence endlessly: "Now, we can only choose to believe him." ”

——————

Without Ji Bingxin chattering in her ears all day long, Xiao Yuexi's life is not too comfortable, there is no task, she hides in the Department of Supervision most of the time, Xiao Yixuan doesn't know what to say to Ji Bingxin, so she really didn't look for it once.

The assassination that Xiao Yuexi suffered on the night of his return to Beijing was an incident, and there were no more detailed clues. Such a well-trained dead soldier really doesn't look like he was cultivated by King Kang. But if not...... After that incident, the Connecticut side seemed to be vigilant again, and there was no movement.

How to think about it and feel strange, but Xiao Yuexi couldn't find more evidence, so she simply trained Ling Suihan to take over her class with peace of mind, regardless of anything else.

In the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, Xiao Yixun still had no intention of leaving, the family rarely sat down to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, and Xiao Yuexi obediently changed into the new clothes carefully prepared by Ji Bingxin, not too cumbersome at all.

Ji Bingxin also showed a rare smile, and it was rare that she didn't embarrass Xiao Yuexi.

Xiao Yuexi counted with her fingers, it seemed that the last time she was like this was five years ago, she couldn't help but sigh for a while, and cherished this rare time even more.

After the New Year, everything was as usual, Xiao Yuexi continued to go back to the prison department to be more leisurely, and occasionally returned to the general's mansion, and Ji Bingxin never mentioned topics such as family affairs and resignation.

Time flies.

At the end of the first month, Xiao Yixuan ran to the prison and dragged Xiao Yuexi to the river to take an ice car, it didn't matter if he was addicted to playing, he almost threw Xiao Yuexi into the ice hole, and he had no remorse afterwards, but ridiculed Xiao Yuexi's "clumsiness", and it seemed that there was no sign of leaving.

At the end of February, Xiao Yuexi was dragged out of the door by her own brother early in the morning, and she had to be dragged on horseback. The capital is not as good as the south, although the end of February is past the spring equinox, but the suburbs are still bare, where can the green step on?? Xiao Yuexi was still dragged out. Although running a lap on a horse is very active, Xiao Yuexi always feels that he is waiting for something to happen, and after returning to Beijing for two and a half months, his iron bones are afraid that he will be rusty. But looking at it like that, there is still no intention of leaving.

Since Xiao Yuexi decided to let Ling Suihan replace him, he rarely asked about the major affairs of the previous dynasty, and he didn't even see the emperor in the past two months, and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm at this time. It stands to reason that the small countries in southern Xinjiang that have been with wolf ambitions have stopped for so long, they should have been unable to sit still for a long time, even if Xiao Yixuan reports on his work, he shouldn't be delayed for so long, he is not afraid that there will be changes in the south, won't he be able to go back in time?

The more I thought about it, the more suspicious I felt, Xiao Yuexi returned to the Department of Supervision and Supervision, and finally remembered to check it.

However, it was too late. Before Xiao Yuexi could sort out any clues, a holy decree was sent to the Department of Prisons, and the content of the shocking stone smashed over, making Xiao Yuexi think that there was something wrong with his ears for a while.

What did the prince who gave the decree say? Xiao Yuexi relived what she had just heard in her head:

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor summoned and said, Xiao Yuexi, the sister of the hussar general Xiao Yixuan, is obedient and virtuous, gentle and gentle, graceful, and even heartfelt.

Is there something wrong with her ears or a problem with her brain? Why couldn't she understand this decree?

Seeing that Xiao Yuexi was silent for a long time, the prince happily reminded: "Madam, thank you quickly?" ”

Xiao Yuexi couldn't help but look up suspiciously and asked, "Princess, have you taken the wrong holy decree?" ”

Wang Gonggong smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a slit, and said, "How come? How many hussar generals can there be? How many sisters are there in the general? It's clearly written! It's you, ma'am! ”

One, all one...... But the person above who is "obedient and virtuous, gentle and gentle, and graceful" is really talking about her????

There is nothing wrong with the Holy Decree, but is there something wrong with the Holy One's brain?

Xiao Yuexi's face turned blue and pale, and the princess was also frightened by her, and asked cautiously, "Madam, what's wrong?" ”

Xiao Yuexi had long forgotten how to react in this situation, and when he was called by him again, she suddenly had goosebumps all over her body, and she was confused, so she accepted the order.

When the prince left, Xiao Yuexi's mind exploded, and he realized what the holy oracle he said before leaving:

"Madam, the emperor also asked the servants to pass on the message, saying that Madame is better than waiting to enter the palace with those showgirls to be selected, and she can move into the Zhaoyang Palace on the third day of the third month of March."

The third day of the third month of March, isn't it tomorrow?!

Xiao Yuexi was silent for a long time, finally digested the information, paused on the spot, and planned to go back to the General's Mansion. As soon as he pushed the door, he saw Ling Suihan, who had a complicated expression, standing outside the door, motionless, like a statue.

Xiao Yuexi pretended to be in his heart, he was startled when he saw him at first glance, and wanted to go directly past him, but his indifferent reaction was a little wrong......

Like, I already knew.

"You ......"

"You ......"

The two of them spoke in unison, and at the same time their faces were solemnly silent.

After a while, Xiao Yuexi spoke first: "Do you know this? ”

"Hmm."

Xiao Yuexi was stunned again. I thought he would cover it up, but I didn't want him to admit it so happily.

Ling Suihan explained: "In mid-March, it is the first draft after the emperor ascends the throne, and each family will submit the portrait of the school-age woman in the family, and the emperor and the queen mother will look at it first, and your portrait may also be handed in......"

Who handed it in, it goes without saying.

Thinking about Xiao Yixuan's abnormality during this time, what else don't you understand?

"Xiao Yixuan, this unreliable thing! It's really getting more and more promising! Xiao Yuexi scolded as she strode out over Ling Suihan. You have been preparing for so long, there will be no problem with the assessment, what is there in the future, you can ...... The General's Mansion sent a letter to me. ”

As soon as the words fell, the people flew away like a gust of wind.

General's Palace.

Xiao Yuexi entered the door with a face full of evil anger, and went all the way into Xiao Yixuan's room, but only saw Ji Bingxin.

"Ma'am." As soon as Ji Bingxin came up, he gave a standard gift, and did not give Xiao Yuexi a chance to react at all.

“…… Sister-in-law, get up! Xiao Yuexi didn't hold it when she pulled it, and she was stunned to accept this gift. forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart, Xiao Yuexi asked respectfully, "What about my brother?" ”

Ji Bingxin said calmly: "The commander of the Imperial Forest Army is resting today, and the general will go out of the city with him to play, and he will return tomorrow." ”

...... "Is this hiding and not daring to see people?" A dignified hussar general, is it just a little bit of a show?! "Sister-in-law! Which one are you singing? Why did my portrait go to the palace? ”

Speaking of the right age, Xiao Yuexi is eighteen years old, and he is already considered an older age in the list of candidates. What's the wheel, it shouldn't be her!

"Madame, don't be angry, it's not a bad thing to enter the palace, you and the emperor have known each other since childhood, I think he will treat you very well."

Speaking of the emperor, Xiao Yuexi is even more inexplicable. It's okay if the family causes chaos, what does the emperor mean? actually set a precedent for this kind of draft to be crowned a concubine before it started, and is it suspected that people are not scolding hard enough behind their backs?

"Madam, I have already asked Mu Lan and Mu Ko to get ready, and they will enter the palace tomorrow as a wedding maid. The palace is no better than the General's Mansion, you have two proper people by your side, and the courtiers can be somewhat relieved. ”

Xiao Yuexi came back to her senses, looked at Ji Bingxin fixedly for a while, and asked coldly, "Sister-in-law, do you have to talk to me like this?" ”

Ji Bing replied calmly: "There is a difference between respect and inferiority, Mrs. should get used to it." ”

A fire rose and burned from his heart, and he couldn't suppress it: "You have planned it a long time ago, why are you hiding it from me?" ”
