It was dark, and the carriage walked slowly on the bumpy road, with only a small orange light hanging on the roof, illuminating the rugged mountain road under its feet as the carriage kept shaking. Bao Xi's words are honest, all the grievances of a woman locked in the boudoir, she will be jealous and envious, she just watched Mrs. Zheng and Ji Gongyan fall in love, so her liver and intestines are broken; However, she can't complain or hate, because her husband is none other than the high-ranking monarch of the Great Zhou.

Twenty-seven once asked Bao Xi, have you ever complained about fate?

At that time, Bao Xi shook her head and told Twenty-Seven that everyone has their own way to go, that is, ordinary women, who may not be better than their current self.

Now Twenty-seven understands the meaning of Bao Xi, but feels that being the envied lady in the deep palace should be Bao Xi's destination.

Zheng Boyou looked at Bao Xi for a long time before he spoke, "If you don't say this, I will still do what you send, and I don't have to worry about it, Zheng Guo is just a small country, and now I have rejected the alliance with Zheng Guo, if I don't rely on the king again, I will have no way out!" ”

Bao Xi bowed slightly, "I know that you are a humble gentleman, and I knew that the eldest lady intended to trap Sangzhu in injustice, and Sangzhu intended to harm the eldest lady, but not only did you not demolish the two of them, but Mrs. Zheng, who complained to you in the future, reprimanded you." Sangzhu fell down the stairs, but she bit me and framed me for pushing him downstairs, and instead of suspecting her, you were angry with me. You are broad-minded, unwilling to criticize others, generous and do not care about gains and losses, great wisdom and foolishness never suspect for no reason, although I know that you will not be ruthless to me because you found out that Mrs. Zheng was killed by me, but I also know that you will not be happy in your heart, I have never been able to step through this hurdle in my heart, I can't act as if nothing has happened, I didn't know that I would meet you when I came today, I just wanted to talk to Mrs. Zheng. ”

The evening breeze of spring was still cool, Bao Xi sneezed, she gently rubbed the tip of her nose with her hand, wrapped her clothes tightly, Zheng Boyou took off her coat and draped it on Bao Xi, "I know that I want to go into the mountains but I don't wear more clothes, how can people rest assured?" ”

Bao Xi raised her eyes to look at Zheng Boyou, and Zheng Boyou also sat on her side because of the matter of dressing Bao Xi, looking at each other, and the dark eyes seemed to be glued. He looked at her for a long time, how many times he complained about her, but every time because he looked at her again, this grudge disappeared. He wanted to lean down and kiss her, to take her into his arms, to press his cheek against her skin, but he knew he couldn't.

The carriage jolted, Bao Xi and Zheng Boyou were slammed into a shock, everyone came back to their senses, their eyes wandered away, Zheng Boyou coughed twice, "The king fought against Dongyi in the country of Qi today, and the reason why he was repeatedly defeated was to collect information about Dongyi, and he planned to take down the Dongyi army in one fell swoop, so ...... You don't have to worry too much. ”

Bao Xi turned to Zheng Boyou again, very puzzled, "How do you know?" ”

"The king has sent my entourage back, almost one after the other from your letter." Zheng Boyou replied, although he didn't want to admit it, but the connection between the king and Bao Xi seemed to have reached a point where ordinary people couldn't reach.

Bao Xi remembered the almost real dream that night, her heart was wrapped in a warm glimmer, her whole chest was filled, and there was no longer the desolation of being locked in the harem. Her hand was on her chest, and a slightly warm expression appeared on her face.

"You are too good at pretending to be pitiful," Zheng Boyou sighed lightly, looking at Bao Xi's expression, he couldn't hide a kind of joy and pride, Bao Xi looked at Zheng Boyou in confusion, and Zheng Boyou picked up the conversation, "He obviously has you in his heart, but you always say that he is just using you." After saying this, Zheng Boyou sighed, lifted the curtain and looked at the mountain road in the dark, and said out the window, "But stupid, it's not just you, I know that you are using me, can't I refuse you?" ”

Bao Xi pursed his lips, Zheng Boyou's voice was very small, almost drifting away with the wind, but it just reached his heart, his feelings were never hidden, he was honest with each other from the beginning, but he was just panicked. And she was really able to take advantage of her weakness because of this, so that his admiration became ridiculous, and Bao Xi suddenly felt that she was too ruthless.

She wasn't all lying, but she wasn't telling the truth. Always put a lie after three truths, it is true that Ji Gongyan treats her as a chess piece, it is true that he makes Qiongtai Hall a cold palace, and it is true that he almost let her die, but she knows that he put her in his heart, but he has never said it to anyone.

"Born in troubled times, there is nothing to do." In the end, Bao Xi could only spit these words out of her mouth as a response to Zheng Boyou.

"What if it weren't for troubled times? What would you do if it were a peaceful and prosperous world today? I Chang'an? Zheng Boyou asked, with a hint of nervousness, he was looking forward to hearing Bao Xi's answer, and knew that maybe she wouldn't answer him at all.

"Then I won't enter the palace, and I won't be able to see him......" Bao Xi let out a long sigh, and suddenly her tone became brisk, turning to Zheng Boyou and saying, "That would be a pity, so I should be grateful for this day!" As soon as the words fell, the carriage suddenly lit up, and before Zheng Boyou could sigh about the embarrassing situation he was in, he heard a sound of squirming soldiers and horses, he frowned, lifted the curtain, and lowered the curtain and lowered his voice and said to Bao Xi, "Palace guards!" ”

"Guards?" Bao Xi was a little surprised, she originally planned to spend the night in the post station, so as not to make the journey unsafe, but now there are guards coming, indicating that these people are taking her back, Bao Xi's eyebrows are gathered together, very unhappy, there is a feeling that she has been restricted from freedom.

"Niangniang, it's Doctor Bao!" Xiuxiu's body leaned back slightly, and said on the door curtain.

"Brother?" Bao Xi was a little surprised by this answer, "Brother...... Haven't you already resigned? Why did you come here with the palace guards? She looked at Zheng Boyou puzzled, Zheng Boyou's face also had a worried look, before he stepped out, Bao Hongde had already stepped up, carrying a big knife on his body, and embroidering a picture of a hundred birds on his silk clothes, it was really gorgeous and abnormal, and the expression on his face also had a three-point playful look, but with two points of anger Zheng Boyou and Bao Xi looked at him, "Niangniang is away, I am the commander of the palace guards, and it is my duty to ensure Niangniang's safety, and now this worship is over, It's time to go back! He said the last few words word by word, and each word stared at Zheng Boyou with a gritted teeth.

"Didn't my brother resign yesterday?" Bao Xi asked, her expression serious and she couldn't see the emotion in her heart.

"Resigned?" Bao Hongde made a funny voice, "It's the king himself who ordered to recruit people into Beijing, how can he just say goodbye?" Now that I have thought about it all night, I can't help but feel that I am too willful, for fear that I will cause unnecessary trouble to my mother in the future! ”

"That's really Brother Lao's memory, now that there is a shortage of manpower in the palace, you still have to go out of the palace to find me, but you really care about your sister." Bao Xi spoke softly, but she couldn't hear the slightest cynicism, and the more she did this, the more it was like a sharp slap in the face of Bao Hongde. He could only drift his gaze to Zheng Boyou, "Uncle Zheng is really good at picking days!" Aren't you afraid that people will say that you have a private meeting with your mother in front of your sister's mausoleum? ”

Before Zheng Boyou could answer, Bao Hongde continued, "As a courtier, you should always put yourself in the shoes of others, Zheng Bo doesn't care about Niangniang's reputation, but he wants to push Niangniang into the fire pit, if someone criticizes him in front of the king in the future, how can Uncle Zheng call my sister to deal with herself?" But can it be explained? ”

"I can't think of anything else but you that would have such a leisurely feeling?" Bao Xi looked at Bao Hongde and said, her eyes were full of disgust and disgust, she had never felt that someone was so vicious, but now, she still felt disgusted.

"Who let me know so many things," Bao Hongde sat opposite Bao Xi, pulled off Zheng Boyou's clothes that Bao Xi was wearing, and threw them into Zheng Bo's arms, "My sister has a private meeting with other men in the middle of the night, since I know that it doesn't seem good not to tell the king, but after all, you are my biological sister, and I naturally dare not say that it is your fault when I say it!" ”

"What do you want to do?" Bao Xi suddenly became alert, and felt that Bao Hongde got into the car today to negotiate terms with herself, so she changed her hand and pressed it on her leg.

"What I want to do, it's up to the mother to do it!" Bao Hongde smiled slightly, leaned on the back of the carriage, the whole person was almost lying flat, squinting at the two people in front of him, his heart was not as leisurely and calm as above, looking like he was waiting for Bao Xi to give himself an answer, but in his heart he wanted to dismantle Zheng Boyou into eight pieces, and eat them alive piece by piece!

"You ......" Bao Xi sat up suddenly, but Zheng Boyou held down her hand, gently turned to Bao Xi's direction, and held Bao Xi's cheek with the other hand, "Although I can't be with you in this life, we have missed too much, but there is an afterlife, without the king, I can grow old with you." ”

Bao Xi looked at Zheng Boyou in surprise, Zheng Boyou shook his head slightly, and signaled Bao Xi not to be impulsive, if he killed someone in the carriage like this today, he was afraid that in the future, he would not be able to seal the mouth of the people at all, so she didn't speak, just looked at Zheng Boyou.

"I don't know it's dying! Do you believe that I can kill you right now? Bao Hongde immediately drew his knife, put the blade on Zheng Boyou's neck, and glared at him angrily.
