Chapter 381: The so-called immortality

In this palace, the best candles are naturally burned. Even so, the emperor's age is not young, and his gaze is like this candle, wandering left and right for a long time before meeting the eyes of Princess Mingzhu. At the time of the autumn festival, he was fine, showing a kind of middle-aged vigorous energy, but after a while, he accidentally fell off his horse, and immediately fell into a dying old man, and his back was bent down.

Princess Mingzhu wore a blood-red robe today, which made his eyes hurt. The Emperor put the brush on his shoulders and examined his daughter carefully, and after a long time smiled a little. There were a lot of things in the food box, some meat and some vegetarian, but he couldn't drink it anymore, he tasted a few sips casually, and he didn't know what it tasted like, and at this moment the emperor's eyes turned around, and he noticed that behind the princess, there seemed to be a palace maid.

When she lowered her head, she was like a snake in the shadows, and it was not noticeable, but when she raised her head, it seemed that she could see a pair of very dark eyes, much deeper than ordinary people. The emperor felt that these eyes were really a little familiar, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. In such a brief moment when he was in a daze, the 'palace maid' had completely raised her head and smiled slightly: "May my emperor have this eternal life." ”

Her voice rustled like a worm flapping its wings and a snake crawling across soft grass. She threw a good bait, and the emperor had to show the mask of aging. As if a ghost had sent a god, and as if he was afraid of the legendary life and death, the emperor finally nodded and agreed to her request. And Ayi will capture the hearts and livers of children and children for him, and torment them into a unique potion to save the lost time and youth.

The entire palace was filled with a thick smell of medicinal mist, like a large net that filled the sky. It lost its vitality day by day, and Shu Qingluo was very scared. Such a big palace, but she felt that people disappeared every day, and in the blink of an eye, those people disappeared into a huge whirlpool like gravel. She had to go to the emperor and beg him to grant her the right to leave the palace and stay in the Zhenguo Mansion.

The Emperor was in a scarlet robe, nestled in a golden chair, overlooking her. "It's a delicate heart, but it's a little older, bigger." He muttered, and then he seemed to be a little tired, and waved his sleeves casually, and let Shu Qingluo retreat. Shu Qingluo knew that he had allowed it, and she didn't dare to stay longer for a moment. She has nothing to pack, all the brocade clothes and fancy clothes, there is no need, only some books are hers, and it is worth a package.

Shu Qingluo also seemed to have escaped and left the palace. In the past, in the deep palace, although she occasionally felt lonely, there were warm times in the end, but now in this huge palace, she always felt deep fear. When she was in the carriage, the sound of the wheels did not stop for a moment, and carried her to the Zhenguo Mansion. She is so smart, and naturally she also knows that the emperor is afraid of Xu Jinfei before. But she is not a lover after all, and she doesn't know that Xu Jinfei is still alive.

As for whether she will be detained as a friend in the future, Shu Qingluo can't care so much. She is a little orphan girl, and she is afraid that what others will say will not be successful. After entering the Zhenguo Mansion, her whole body suddenly relaxed. She had just recovered from a serious illness, and finally got better, and at this moment she immediately turned back into a wilting seedling. Hua Manxi fed her as a precious flower, and it took nearly half a month before she showed some vitality. Xu Jinfei is exquisitely planned, and he is ready to expose the truth of everything at the end of this year.

During this period, Ye Crushed and Hua Wei also came to the Zhenguo Mansion and saw a trip to Huamanxi. Maybe it was born wrong, and I don't know why, Hua Wei and Wuluan fought and almost destroyed half of the garden. Shu Qingluo peeked at the two of them, and couldn't help sighing: "It is said that a man is like a jade, and he should have all kinds of virtues and a thousand demeanors, so it can be seen that the person who wrote the book is also a man, and he is all nonsense."

There were still a few maids around her who were very good at taking care of people, and hurriedly put the cloak on her shoulder, and then said coquettishly: "My little county lord, Madame has entrusted me to take good care of you, why did you suffer from the cool breeze again?" Gai Ming'er poured a bowl of bitter medicine, and you were teary-eyed, but it was not a slave. ”

Shu Qingluo stuck out her tongue, since she came to this town, she felt a lot more comfortable, so she didn't refute, and smiled slowly: "Okay, okay, it's all up to you." Is there anything to eat tonight? I want to eat the sauerkraut fish pot cooked by Sister Hua herself. ”

The two chatted for a while without mentioning it, and said that the years were getting colder, and in a blink of an eye, it was the time of the winter solstice. In the old days, the cold weather was even colder, and the floor heating was made in the house early, and the house was warm. Hua Manxi couldn't help but be lazy these days, nesting in the warm quilt all day long, it was Xu Jin who took the opportunity to come at night and drill her quilt, she also raised her eyelids and closed them again, and she didn't want to move.

Xu Jinfei felt funny, so he deliberately stretched out his hand to cover her warm neck. Hua Manxi was so shocked that he slapped the person, and the whole person rolled the futon into a ball, away from the very hateful Xu Jinfei. Xu Jinfei looked at the flowery quilt, and couldn't find a place to start, the whole person was angry and funny, and wanted to bend his fingers to flick her forehead. Hua Manxi shrank his neck, and the people nested in.

Xu Jinfei rubbed her with a cold face, and sighed intentionally: "It seems that the face of the 'dead husband' is not good, lady, when will you go to Zhou Gong?" Today's winter solstice, don't you even want to appreciate a meal of dumpling noodles? Hua Manxi turned over and deliberately said lazily: "You also know that you are a dead husband?" I suggest that you go to the grave and smoke a pinch of cigarettes, which is enough to eat. Still want to rub my dumplings, who killed my favorite pig in advance? ”

Xu Jinfei laughed wryly, not daring to speak, even though the pig was not killed by him, but by Hua Wei. But to envelop such a strange and uncertain person, a pig, is really simple and comfortable. Hua Wei is such a big beauty, she may be mistaken for a woman when she goes out, but she has a soft spot for the pig, and it seems that she wants to wash it clean and take it out as a mount to wander.

Hua Manxi was attached to the warm quilt for a while, and then hummed reluctantly: "That's it, although you big pig can skip eating, but Shishi and Qingluo are very needed, don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face." ”

She went to the kitchen, which was blazing and warm. Zhenguo Mansion is a big place, and many people are coming today, not only dumplings, but also many other foods. Hua Manxi only focused on taking out the dough that had been fermented and rolling it into a dumpling skin, Xu Jinfei nodded in his heart, thinking that his wife was still hard-mouthed and soft-hearted. Hua Manxi took a trick in his heart, and squeezed out the juice of celery and celery and other green vegetables and mixed them together.

The color of the dumpling skin is green and blue, very good-looking, Huamanxi according to the different tastes of each person, some are wrapped with celery and pork filling, some are dates and peanuts, and some are pure beef, and the rest of the colors, but also have, and finally gathered in a bowl, it can be called eight treasure dumplings. Xu Jinfei is the lucky one, although he, the eight treasures, seems to have snatched one from everyone's bowl, although because Shu Qingluo is too young, he reluctantly let it go.

Wang Shishi shook her head and said: "I obviously didn't get vinegar, but I already smelled a strange and incomparably sour smell, Shen Shao, let me tell you, your beef dumplings, keep them for me, don't think about chewing them secretly, there is no door." As if the trick had succeeded, Shen Shao smiled secretly, and naturally dialed the dumplings.

It stands to reason that Shu Qingluo is an outsider in the end, and she should not be told to know that Xu Jinfei is still alive. But after all, she is still young, and she is very gentle and innocent, and she will never say anything nonsense. Just tell the truth for a little while, and the little county lord with golden branches and jade leaves is already red-eyed. The loyalty to the emperor had long since disappeared when she half-begged and half-escaped from the palace.

At the same time, Xu Jinfei's intelligence network is not fictional, and he has long sensed that something is wrong in the palace. He remained silent and ordered everyone to only collect evidence and not to startle the snake. When necessary, you can be exposed, but don't risk it. His brothers are the most precious lives. Even so, he also learned a lot of very important information. It is said that the emperor does not like to receive foreign ministers very much, but through a curtain, there are waiting palace maids inside, and all the words are passed by Princess Mingzhu.

Many old ministers were already very dissatisfied with Princess Mingzhu's arrogance, but they were dissatisfied, after all, Princess Mingzhu would neither marry them, let alone marry their descendants, so they could barely suppress their impatience with a female streamer. But now that Princess Mingzhu is in charge of everything, she even wants her to pass on the words of the emperor, which annoys many stubborn old Qingliu.

Pieces of impeachment flew into the palace like snowflakes, but the emperor was as deaf as he was and ignored them. Many people even suspect that the emperor is dead, and Princess Mingzhu wants to learn from the empress and take the throne, so there are those who are not afraid of death, so they go to lift the dragon curtain, but unfortunately they don't see it, and they are killed by a dart, the dart head is shiny, like a silver butterfly. So the curtain was lowered again, and everything was quiet.

There are those who can't break into the inner palace, they will die in front of the jade steps of the Dragon Palace, bloodstained, if they freeze for another night, the color is beautiful, like a sugar gourd. Princess Mingzhu stood in the warm hall with her eyes down, suddenly smiled, and said: "It's weird and beautiful, when the ice melts, let's sweep it clean." ”

Some palace people are terrified, but who can say that in this palace, there can be a pure and immaculate pure land? Everyone is struggling separately, living in this world, just to see who dies first, who dies later, and who can have the last laugh.
