Chapter 25: Temptation

The two left Chuxiu Palace, He Xi's footsteps were a little slow, and Tuoba Chen was about to follow her, the two of them went one after the other, and the moonlight sprinkled down, stretching the figures of the two extremely long, overlapping clearly and secretly, and it seemed a little ambiguous.

He Xi took a step slower and forcibly separated her shadow, but Tuoba Chen thought it was because of the injury on her ankle. Didn't care.

walked together like this for a long time, and the two were silent, as if there was a strange atmosphere permeating the two, which made He Xi a little suffocated.

Taking a deep breath, He Xi seemed to have mustered up the courage to ask, "Why did Your Majesty come to Chuxiu Palace?" ”

"Why can't I come to Chuxiu Palace?" Tuoba Chen did not answer the rhetorical question.

"There are Wang Cairen and Bai Cairen living in Chuxiu Palace, Wang Cairen was frightened that day, and when he heard that he returned to the West Palace, he fell ill, Bai Cairen is fine...... He Xi said in a low voice.

"Do you think I'm here to find them?" Tuoba Chen frowned, he thought that this girl was a clever and intelligent person, but how could she become a little stupid at this time.

"Your Majesty, if it weren't for the two talents, would it be for the first ...... Haunted? The words of the first queen have reached her mouth, but she was swallowed back by He Xi, her face turned pale, and everyone in the palace knew that this first queen was a taboo in the harem.

Tuoba Chen's breathing was also stagnant, and his still somewhat happy mood became a little strange at the moment, but he was not angry because of He Xi's momentary aphasia.

"What do you think about this?" Tuoba Chen asked, which can be regarded as acquiescence.

"The concubine is ignorant and doesn't dare to speak falsely." He Xi replied lightly.

Tuoba Chen's heart swelled with a burst of irritability, everyone in this harem is in danger, and they all pick and choose what they like to say, but after listening to this lie for a long time, they don't know if it's true or false?

As if he hated He Xi's wise attitude of protecting himself, he flicked his bright yellow sleeves, crossed a beautiful arc in the air, and left He Xi in place with a cold snort.

He Xi hugged the puppet in his arms with a reluctant temperament, and moved forward one by one.

Suddenly the person appeared in front of him again, but He Xi didn't look up, and continued to walk forward, Tuoba Chen was stunned, didn't expect this little girl to have a temper?

"It's not that you don't understand, you don't say it, but you're worried that I'll blame you?" Tuoba Chen finally asked.

He Xi's eyes flashed slightly, and he seemed to have the courage to say, "Then no matter what the concubine says?" Your Majesty doesn't blame the concubines? ”

The words were sluggish, Tuoba Chen's eyes dimmed, wouldn't he be blamed for anything? No, no, in this world, there is always a thorn in one's heart, which cannot be touched, and when it is touched, it hurts to the bone marrow.

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have taken advantage of the night to arrive at Chuxiu Palace, and he didn't know what to expect in his heart, if it was a resentful spirit, would he talk to himself? He lives in the nightmare she left him, tormenting him all day long.

didn't get a response from Tuoba Chen, He Xi stopped talking, had nothing to say, and arrived at the Hehuan Hall in a blink of an eye, but He Xi walked to the side door, Tuoba Chen looked at the weeds and said: "Isn't this palace skirt undesirable to you, are you ruining it like this?" ”

He Xi lowered his head, saw a corner of the broken skirt exposed under the dark cloak, stretched out his hand to cover it, and said in a low voice: "Love will not last long, the more careful, the easier it is to break, the rainbow is fleeting, it is better to be casual." ”

This seems to be saying the skirt again, but it seems to sigh again.

Turning around and slowly walking into the grass, Tuoba Chen stood in place and looked at He Xi's back, thinking to himself, not knowing what he was thinking, the petite figure walked to the side door, turned around and bowed lightly to this side, and then disappeared at the door.

Closing the door, He Xi leaned his back against the door, and his whole body seemed to be withdrawn from the ghost, and he sat on the ground limply.

His chest was undulating, his hands were tightly clutching the shabby puppet, he couldn't stop shivering, and suddenly, a sour feeling welled up in his stomach.

She propped herself up and fell to the ground retching, a fishy sweet smell permeating her. Winding down from the corner of his mouth, it looks like a blood worm, vicious and bone-eater.

She bit the tip of her tongue, and every part of her body he touched was crawling with ants that made her unbearable, and God knows how she endured her hatred and played in front of him.

Yes, every time she was playing, she had long known that this matter would inevitably attract his attention, and she also knew that he would inevitably go to investigate, for the poor guilt of his psychology, He Xi was gambling, but she won the bet, she saw him, but she only didn't count her hatred.

Looking at Tuoba Chen, who was close at hand, she really wanted to turn into a ghost, use her fingers to rip out his heart, peel the skin and drink blood, so as to extinguish the flame in her heart.

Her body had strength, but her ankles were still sore and painful, and she struggled to get up against the blue-gray palace wall, and she walked forward little by little. Don't wait to turn back to the porch.

I saw a person standing under the porch, and the dark red wide-sleeved robe was hidden in the night, and I couldn't tell whether it was black swallowing up red, and I couldn't tell whether it was red that dyed the night.

Standing with a long body and standing with his hands in his hands, the night wind teasingly lifted up a strand of black hair, like an evil god.

"See the Seven Princes, are the Seven Princes here to test how things are doing?" He Xi had a cool smile on the corner of his lips, and there was still a little blood stain on his lips, which was red and confusing.

One step, two steps, walking in the direction of He Xi, Tuoba Yue looked at the woman in front of her, her eyes were alienated, she was still carrying a worn-out doll in her left hand, her face was even more pale under the moonlight, and her thin body seemed to be about to fall down in the next moment, but her resolute look seemed to be unable to defeat her with anything.

"I know, you will definitely be able to do it, but ......" took out the Biyue from his arms, stuffed it into He Xi's hand and said: "This Biyue Order can command a team of moon guards, they are hidden in the palace on weekdays. ”

He Xi lowered his head, looked at the ring jade, and said respectfully: "He Xi knows, it's just such a trivial matter, how can you bother the Seven Princes to go in person, this is the palace, no better than the Seven Princes' Mansion in Southern Xinjiang, the Seven Princes should be careful, late at night, He Xi will not send the Seven Princes." ”

Bypassing the Seven Princes, he was about to go, and when he wiped his body, Tuoba Yue saw that there were red marks on He Xi's pale neck, which were left by Tuoba Chen.

The finger flexed for a moment, and the intuition red mark became more and more obstructive, and he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was already full of moonlight.

Out of the palace, He Qing was guarding outside the palace, watching Tuoba Yue come out quietly, and his heart was secretly relieved, although they also had their own informants in the palace, but it was still very risky to enter the harem like this to see a palace concubine.

Originally, the Biyue Order was handed over to him by the Seventh Prince and handed it over to him, but for some reason, today the Seventh Prince suddenly changed his mind and arranged for himself to enter the palace in person.

Fortunately, the one in the palace is still not favored, and he lives in a remote Hehuan Palace, which made them find an opportunity.

Early the next morning, as soon as He Xi got up, Ruyi came to report with a happy face: "The little lord can be counted, the Fu Gonggong beside His Majesty is here." ”

I came back a little late yesterday, and yesterday the queen mother was exempted from the morning and dusk in the last few days, so she slept for half an hour, rubbed her somewhat groggy forehead, and He Xi said: "What did Father-in-law Fu say?" ”

"I don't know about this slave, but I think that Father-in-law Fu has brought a lot of palace people and brought a lot of good things over." Ruyi's tone is a lot lighter.

After He Xi simply washed and changed clothes, he went to the main hall with Ruyi.

At this time, the people in the courtyard all knelt on the ground, and He Xi Yingying smiled: "Let my father-in-law wait for a long time." ”

Fuqing didn't have the slightest impatience, and said with a smile on his face: "Where is the little master, today the slave was instructed by His Majesty to send some items to the little master, His Majesty went back yesterday and said to the slave that this Hehuan Hall was a little deserted, and the little master was wronged, but he couldn't be harsh on food and clothing, and this slave went to the Internal Affairs Office early today to buy some things for the little master." ”

He Xi's face was not flattered, but it seemed to be expected, but the servants in the Hehuan Hall were indeed not so calm, and their eyebrows fluttered one by one, as if they were rewarded by themselves.

Fuqing waved his hand, and the eunuch who followed him sang in a sharp voice: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor said, Hehuan Dianxi promised to be smart and agile, and his temperament is sensitive, so he will enjoy a Qibao coral hairpin, two smoke yarn Bixia Luo, a golden silk inlaid ruby double luan dot cuibu shake, a peony and green leaf smoker, and a set of pear flower wood furniture in the South China Sea." ”

The eunuch seemed to pause, then cleared his throat and said, "A pleated skirt of water mist and green grass, admire this." ”

Not only was the eunuch who read the holy decree surprised, but even the old man in the palace like Fuqing was a little surprised, and he couldn't understand the purpose of this last piece given by His Majesty, it was just an ordinary palace skirt, and it was not a fine product woven in Jiangnan.

He Xi smiled lightly, his face was dyed with spring, and he knelt down softly in the direction of the Heart Cultivation Hall and thanked him, and then got up and signaled Ruyi to reward the two fathers-in-law, Fuqing accepted it, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty feels sorry for the little master, it is the blessing of the little master, according to the old slave, the little master's Hehuan Palace, I'm afraid it won't last long." ”

He Xi received the reward, but he was not arrogant or impatient, and replied with a smile: "It is Your Majesty's grace wherever it is placed, I am happy and quiet, and I am used to living in this Hehuan Palace, but I also want to thank Gonggong Fu for his auspicious words." ”

Fuqing nodded with satisfaction, the concubines who had just entered the palace were like flowers in full bloom at the beginning, brilliant for a while, and after that freshness, they were defeated.

It's just that the person in front of him is a man who behaves in a way and knows how to be polite, and now His Majesty is still fresh, and the days to come will only depend on his own creation.

After the two fathers-in-law left, the servants of the Hehuan Hall began to hurriedly pack up the items sent by His Majesty, and their faces were full of joy, which was in stark contrast to the sluggish expression in the past.

He Xi only stared at the blue and blue palace skirt, Ruyi looked at it, and muttered in a low voice: "Your Majesty is really strange, why did you reward such a palace skirt." ”

He Xi didn't tell anyone about last night, she reached out and stroked the corner of the palace skirt, and it was smooth, but it was just a palace skirt, but in her opinion, this palace skirt was more precious than those silk and satin and exquisite jewelry, no, it can't be said to be precious, but ...... Valuable.

At this time, in the queen's palace, Lan Ruozheng was half-lying on the bed with a sickly face, she had nightmares last night, and the dream was still like this Weiyang Palace, but it was full of flames all around.

It wasn't until dawn that I woke up slowly, but my head was dizzy, and I asked the doctor to see it, and it turned out to be a fever.

At this time, Qiao'er was coming in with medicine, and saw the two little palace maids in front of the door saying something with an angry face, her face was unhappy, and she reprimanded in a low voice: "Niang Niang is sick, what are you muttering here?" Disturb the mother's rest, don't say I can't spare you. ”

Being scolded by Qiao'er like this, the two shrank their heads in fear, but one of them seemed to be unwilling, and followed Qiao'er and said: "Sister Qiao'er, let's talk about it now, Your Majesty is really ruthless, since these little masters entered the palace, Your Majesty stayed in the Xu Zhaoyi Palace all day long, and Niangniang didn't say anything about coming to see it when she was sick, and I heard from the people in the Internal Affairs Office that His Majesty rewarded a lot of things to go to the Hehuan Hall today." ”

Hehuan Temple?
