Chapter 55: Regaining Grace (2)

In the evening, Tuoba Chen still only had dinner in the Hehuan Palace, and did not stay at Hexi.

The night was deep, He Xi looked at the busy figure of Ruyi in the hall, and said softly: "Ruyi, come here." ”

Ruyi heard He Xi call himself, hurriedly put down the things in his hand, walked to He Xi's side, and said softly: "What does the little master command?" ”

He Xi looked at his round nails and said, "You saw Concubine Xu Shu today?" ”

As soon as he said this, the corners of Ruyi's originally smiling mouth drooped suddenly, and his face turned red, and it seemed that the scene of today's pothos humiliating himself appeared in front of him.

He Xi just asked casually, and when he saw Ruyi's appearance, he asked suspiciously, "But what happened?" Ruyi gritted her teeth, and finally said: "Little master, the slave has something to say." ”

Seeing Ruyi so serious, He Xi couldn't help asking: "Say, you and I, master and servant, what can't you say." ”

Ruyi told everything that happened in the Ice Spring Palace during the day, and finally, Ruyi said with red eyes: "Little master, you are thinking about Concubine Shuniang in your heart, but Concubine Shuniang may not be like this, even if you and Concubine Shuniang were sisters once, but in the face of grace, everything will change." ”

He Xi eased his breath, I don't know why I always feel that the air is a little stuffy today, and I can't breathe in people's hearts.

"I know you've suffered today." He Xi comforted, Ruyi's heart warmed, and the grievances and unwillingness that originally surged up were actually soothed by He Xi's gentle words.

"The slave knows that it is not easy for the little master, in this harem, since the little master has a plan, he must stand in the center of the vortex, and it is not a big deal for the slave and maid to be wronged." Ruyi's tone was a lot calmer.

He Xi nodded, looked at Ruyi's somewhat red eyes, and said with a smile: "Go down and wipe your face, when others see it, they think I reprimanded you." ”

Seeing He Xi making fun of himself, Ruyi was a little embarrassed, nodded with his hands down, and walked out.

But he didn't want to step out of the door of the main hall with his front foot, and he heard someone from the palace say: "Little master, the white talent from Chuxiu Palace is here." Ruyi remembered that Bai Cairen did say that he wanted to come over today, but he didn't expect that he would choose this time, and all the palaces would have to rest. Ruyi turned around and asked He Xi, He Xi straightened up from the beauty couch, raised his face slightly, and said: "You go down to wipe your face first, and then come in to serve, in addition, invite Bai Cairen in." ”

The little eunuch who had already had a keen presence next to him went down to invite Bai Zhi, and Ruyi hurriedly went to the side hall to clean up.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and He Xi followed the sound to go over, only to see the little eunuch leading the way carrying a lantern in front, followed by a beautiful woman in a lilac feather gauze palace dress, walking slowly towards the hall.

"The concubine has seen Sister Xi. Sister, but has she improved? Bai Zhi was smiling, just like the last time she came to the Hehuan Palace, and even that expression seemed to be reproduced.

He Xi smiled politely: "It's good to let my sister worry." ”

Bai Zhi peeked at He Xi a few times with a pair of beautiful eyes, only to see that He Xi's whole person exuded a lazy atmosphere, and her water-colored eyes narrowed slightly, like a cat.

"My sister came at the wrong time, and it disturbed my sister's rest." Bai Zhi took the fan embroidered for He Xi from the handmaid behind her, handed it to He Xi with both hands, and then said: "It's just that my sister is thinking about my sister, and I saw Miss Ruyi today, so I came at night, and I ask my sister to forgive me." ”

He Xi took the fan, and saw that the embroidery on it was not the flowers, birds, fish and insects on the ordinary fan, but a palace beauty, sitting by the window, looking out of the window with a thoughtful expression.

Angelica Angelica has always been ingenious, and the embroidery is naturally vivid, this beauty is quite similar to He Xi between her eyebrows, there are two rows of fly-headed small Kai on one side, and the stitches are neatly embroidered: looking back and smiling, the six palaces have no color.

The corners of He Xi's lips provoked a smile, and gently put the fan on Bai Zhi's hand and said, "I haven't had the courage to take this fan yet, so my sister should take it back." ”

Bai Zhi didn't take it, but just stared at He Xi's somewhat ambiguous face set off by the candlelight and said, "Sister, if you can't afford it, I'm afraid no one in this harem can afford it." ”

He Xi's smile became more and more shallow: "I don't have the intention of competing for favor, my sister is afraid that she is looking for the wrong person, if it is said to be shelter, now I am just a noble concubine, there is the queen Xu Shufei, and there is also Zhao Concubine who sleeps tonight, why did you choose me alone?" ”

Bai Zhi pushed the fan back into He Xi's hand and said with a smile: "If my sister really wants to know, when my sister recovers and can go out, come and sit in my sister's palace, someone wants to see my sister." At that time, the sister will know why the younger sister chose the sister. ”

He Xi was stunned, could it be that Bai Zhi is also Tuoba Yue's person?

No, it's impossible, it's impossible for Tuoba Yue to hide it from himself, at least in this aspect, he won't hide it from himself, so who is the person in Bai Zhi's mouth? His eyes fell on the fan, and without speaking, Bai Zhi straightened up, saluted and went out with the maidservant.

Ruyi came in, and when she saw He Xi staring at the fan in a daze, she said softly: "This white talent is really strange, what time is this, even if you want to send something, you should come tomorrow." ”

After that, he looked at the portrait on the fan, and praised again: "But this embroiderer is first-class and good, and it seems that he also cares about the little master." ”

He Xi threw the fan in his hand aside, and said slowly: "Ruyi, it's burned." ”

"What...... What the? Ruyi asked in some surprise, He Xi was also annoyed, and still repeated those two words, burning.

Bai Zhi is testing herself, the first time she sent the screen was to invite pets, and this time it was to lead herself to see someone.

Ruyi put the fan away and looked at the moon hanging high outside, it was foggy and unreal, there was not even a twinkling star, and it seemed lonely and lonely.

The next day, the emperor issued an order to go to Luocheng Hefu in Jiangnan to pick up a maidservant - ugly child.

Xian Wang's Mansion, Xiao Nai was sitting in Tuoba Yue's study, holding a book in her hand, when Yue Qi came in to report this, she was seeing the wonderful place, and before she could be happy, she was annihilated by the news.

She threw the book aside with a look of sorrow, and Tuoba Yue raised her head to look at Xiao Nai and said, "Na'er is bored?" ”

She got up and paced to Tuoba Yue's side and said, "Brother Yue, what do you mean by this He Xi?" We only have Chou'er and that Uncle Liang in our hands, and now she has taken Chou'er to the palace again, is she ......?"

As if he didn't know how to speak, Tuoba Yue's subordinates stopped slightly, looked away, and looked out the window instead. I saw a pile of rocks next to the rockery, faintly with a touch of green, and when I looked closely, I saw that it was a weed struggling out of the crack in the stone, desperately extending upwards to absorb the sun.

"I heard that Your Majesty has been very fond of her recently, is it possible that she will betray us?" Xiao Nai's tone was full of jealous speculation.

There are not many people around him who know He Xi's life experience, Xiao Nai only thinks that this way can separate the relationship between Brother Yue and He Xi, but Tuoba Yue ignored Xiao Nai, just stared at the weed outside, Xiao Nai was even more jealous in his heart.

As long as He Xi is mentioned, Tuoba Yue is always so distracted.

"She won't." A clear voice came, and the person who came came with silver and white hair, followed by a young man, who was Gao Yuan.

Xiao Nai said with an arrogant expression: "I know that Mr. Gao once saved this woman, but who knows the details?" Could it be that she once promised you something? ”

Xiao Nai looked at Gao Yuan with a teasing look in his eyes, Gao Yuan's face turned red, not shy, but humiliated, he said coldly: "Please also ask Miss Xiao Nai to pay attention to her words, I am a gentleman with Miss Hexi, how can I tolerate slander by others!" ”

Yes, why is such a woman, such a beautiful woman, so unbearable in her mouth? How could he allow it.

The tone was stern, Xiao Nai had been reprimanded like this, Tuoba Yue still didn't say a word, Xiao Nai stomped his feet violently, and said with a crying aggrieved: "Brother Yue......"

Seeing the two arguing, Tuoba Yue eased his mind and said softly: "Okay, Nair, it's time to take the medicine, Ryan took Miss Xiao Nai to take the medicine." ”

Xiao Nai was depressed, but Tuoba Yue had already spoken, she knew Tuoba Yue's temperament, so she reluctantly said yes and followed out.

After Xiao Nai left, Gao Yuan was still fixed in place like a nail, motionless.

"Mr. Gao come in and sit down." Tuoba Yue got up, stretched out his hand to signal, but he didn't want Gao Yuan to seem to have not heard, his eyes locked on Tuoba Yue's every move, his palm slowly curled up, and said coldly: "You let people slander her like this?" ”

Tuoba Yue chuckled, his already evil face became more and more charming at this moment, and he said a little lazily: "Naier didn't mean it, why should Mr. Gao be so serious?" ”

It's just an unintentional sentence, so careless, so careless.

"I thought that even if she was a sword in your hand, you should respect her, and you shouldn't let others slander her like this!" Gao Yuan's white hair lined his eyes, which became more and more red.

"Gao Yuan, this is a matter between me and her, you shouldn't ask, since you have decided to assist me, you must know that there are some things that you will never be able to interfere with." Tuoba Yue saw Gao Yuan defending He Xi like this, Mo Ming felt a burst of boredom, and the words he said were as cold as frost.

Gao Yuan was stunned, clenched his fists hard, and his already white hands almost burst with green tendons, he took a deep breath, and finally clenched his fists and said: "My subordinates have overpassed." ”

"And what's the matter with you?" Tuoba Yue's expression is no longer the evil of the past, with a faint hint of coldness.

"Our people found out that someone brought acacia incense into the palace." Gao Yuan frowned, and said with some concern.
