The eunuch who led the way was afraid that he would not be able to stammer, so he was extremely attentive. But in the end, he is literate and hyphenation, and the stammering does not look vulgar and annoying.

"Speaking of this Jinxiu Pavilion, it is really bumpy. There was this palace when the palace was built in the previous dynasty, and it has been more than 200 years now. When it was first built, there were not many books here, but it has been slowly accumulated over many years to get to where it is today. More than 10 years ago, Miyagi was sacked by rebels and set on fire. At that time, several fathers-in-law who guarded this palace gave their lives to cut off the source of the fire, so as to keep the books on this floor of Jinxiu Pavilion. ”

"Are people still alive now?"

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Only one Gonggong Guo is still alive, and the others are dead, and they can go." Guo's father-in-law's eyes were damaged by smoke back then, and now he can't see things clearly. Although it is said that the eyes are not done, I have to come in every day or two, and I feel comfortable staying here. ”

He was afraid that this would not appeal to the princess, so he diverted the topic: "What books does the princess want to find?" The books here are all classified, the princess said a name, and the slave and maid could help find it. ”

"It's nothing, I just want to find two pastimes to see."

"Yes, princess, please go this way, these books are placed in the east room."

The smell of old paper in the room is not unpleasant. The shadow of the light can only illuminate a small circle around the body, and beyond the light is all darkness.

This book pavilion has been going on for more than 200 years, and I don't know how many people have lingered here for so many years, most of those people have been ancient, and these books have been quietly staying here after a hundred years.

"Look, princess, these two volumes are probably quite interesting."

Liu Yan took it and didn't look at it carefully, Gui Yuan took a piece of cloth and wrapped the bookbook - these two books are well preserved, but they are obviously not new books, it is inevitable that your hands will sweat on a hot day, and it will not be good if the book is dirty.

Gui Yuan has never studied, only knows a few words, and knows a little arithmetic, otherwise the beauty around the princess will not be her turn. Although she has never studied seriously, she has a special respect for books.

On the way back, there was no wind at all, and the weather was extremely hot. Gui Yuan said: "I'm afraid it's going to rain this day." ”

As a result, before they returned to Anhe Palace, the rain really started, and the raindrops were so heavy that they hurt when they hit their heads.

"Why don't we avoid ......"

Liu Yan had already run away: "What to avoid, run!" ”

Gui Yuan was afraid that he would spoil the book, so he took the small cloth bag into his arms and ran along.

Fortunately, it was not a few steps away, and it was good to enter Anhe Palace.

Liu Yan shook his sleeves, stomped his feet again, and said with a smile: "You don't usually see much light in your mouth, but today you said that the rain and rain are coming." ”

Gui Yuan didn't dare to laugh here: "Princess, go and change your clothes, don't look back and catch a cold." ”

Liu Yan didn't care: "Who catches a cold on this kind of day." ”

As soon as he spoke, a thunderclap sounded, and the movement sounded like a split overhead, and it shook people's ears.

Gui Yuan was so busy that he ordered people to close the windows and doors, keep an eye on the candles, and then prepare hot water to bathe the princess. Turning her head, Ginkgo came over with a scarf and clothes: "Sister, the princess said that she asked her sister to change her clothes, but don't get sick." The princess has me to serve her, and my sister should go and rest first. ”

Longan himself is drenched in a lot, but how can the person who serves others take care of himself first?

"It's okay, then you watch the princess wash well, but don't play while washing, and you can't let her fall asleep in the bucket."

Ginkgo Naole: "Sister, don't worry, I will serve you wholeheartedly." ”

When Liu Yan was taking a bath, it was raining more and more outside, and Ginkgo had to raise her voice if she wanted to talk to her, otherwise the two people who were very close would not be able to hear what the other person said. After taking a shower and changing clothes, before his hair was dry, Liu Yan had already fallen asleep with a pillow.

Ginkgo led the little palace maid to put down the tent, cleaned up the residual water, and took her turn to be on duty tonight. Fortunately, the master who served was a worry-free person, and never had trouble at night, and Ginkgo put the two soft cushions together, so he half sat and half leaned on the nap, and he didn't dare to really fall asleep, for fear that if the master made people can't hear - he was even more afraid that Li Shanggong would catch people by patrolling the night. To be honest, I have to be an errand during the day, how can I not be sleepy at night? But who told you this reason, Li Shanggong slept at night last time when he caught the little eunuch outside, not only beat ten boards, but also fined two months of monthly silver. Naturally, when it came to Ginkgo, serving the princess closely, Li Shanggong also wanted to give her face, and she couldn't beat her, but it would be a shame if she was really caught.

I don't know how long I was in such a daze, and suddenly I heard someone calling her.

Ginkgo opened her eyes, and sure enough, someone called her through the door: "Sister Ginkgo? ”

Ginkgo hurriedly got up and leaned against the door and asked, "Who?" ”

"It's me, bean soup."

"What's going on in the middle of the night?"

The voice of the bean soup was vague and unclear in the rain: "...... There seemed to be movement outside the door. ”

Ginkgo put on her coat and pushed the door out. Doutang hurriedly came up and said, "Xiao Jia heard a movement outside the door just now. ”

"Is it a change of guards?"

Doutang shook his head: "It's not an hour. ”

The rain was still falling, and Ginkgo carried a lantern and an umbrella to the gate with the bean soup.

I don't know if I heard it wrong, but there was no sound outside except the sound of rain, and when I looked out from the crack in the door, the rain was heavy, and I couldn't see anything in the darkness outside.

Although she couldn't see it, Ginkgo felt a little unsteady in her heart - the rain was so heavy today that the lightning and thunder made people feel uneasy.

"You take someone to keep watch, if there is any more movement, come to me quickly."

The bean soup hurriedly responded.

After Ginkgo went back, she couldn't sleep anymore, and her heart was full of scary thoughts.

The world has only been peaceful for a few years, Ginkgo also suffered when she was young, suffered crimes, her whole family died in the war, and later entered the palace as a palace maid.

In the past few years since the emperor ascended the throne, the palace seems to be stable, but in fact, there have been many strange things in private. The year before last, there were assassins, saying that the eunuchs colluded with the thieves outside to assassinate the emperor, and many people were killed that time. This has only just stopped......

Ginkgo prayed to God and Buddha in her heart, hoping that nothing would happen again. She felt that life was very good now, but she really didn't know what the troublemakers were thinking. Could it be that they would be happy to kill the current emperor, fight a few more years, and die countless more people? As for the remnants of the previous dynasty, the last emperors of the previous dynasty were so confused, and the people in the world did not live a life of human beings, why do these people still want the previous dynasty to come back?

was so distraught that until the early hours of the morning, the bean soup didn't come in again, thinking that it was okay to come outside. The sound of the rain gradually stopped, and as soon as she pushed the door, the wind blew on her face with moisture and coolness, and her drowsy mind also woke up after a night's sleep.
