It was a fine day in July, and the sunlight shrouded the magnificent imperial city, illuminating the glazed tiles on the top of the octagonal heart of the palace shining, although it was a hidden place with lush flowers and willows, it could still be pierced by the light and could not open its eyes.

Su Ying stretched out his hand to cover his eyebrows, looked at the strict guards in front of Danfeng Gate, and hesitated to speak: "It's better to... Let's go over the wall? ”

looked up at the towering Zhu Wall, and shook his head again: "No, this wall is too high, I may be able to reluctantly try, Yunluo, you can't say." ”

Yun Luo nodded again and again: "In that case, why don't we go back......"

"No, let's get out so easily." She thought for a moment: "You stay here, I'll sneak back and find the phoenix seal, can we go out?" ”

Yun Luo hurriedly stretched out her hand and grabbed her: "We ran out secretly, if you go back at this time, where can you still come out?" ”

"Duan Niang has led a lot of female officials to the court early in the morning," she felt more and more that this plan was very feasible: "I don't know what they have been busy with all day in the past ten days, I will go in quietly, and no one will find out." ”

A chuckle suddenly came from behind him, as if he couldn't help laughing, Su Ying was shocked, turned his head to see the person's appearance clearly, and then breathed a sigh of relief, and Yun Luo on the side saluted respectfully: "His Royal Highness King Ning." ”

Pei Zhao looked at Su Ying and said with a smile: "I wonder if the queen has ever noticed that I have been standing behind you?" ”

Huh?

Why is Pei Zhao so polite today? Su Ying looked behind him, it was not Nangong Lie who was following him today, but a man in his forties, maybe there was a stranger, so he had to pay extra attention?

Thinking of this, she coughed lightly and said, "This palace was thinking about a very important matter, so naturally she didn't notice it. ”

He let out an "oh" and asked, "I don't know what kind of big thing made the queen mother worry so much, and she was wearing a palace maid's costume and lingering in front of Danfeng Gate for a long time?" ”

Su Ying pretended to say: "This palace recently studied "Houde", and I felt a lot, Fang Jue Emperor is one, if he is virtuous, he can increase the stability of the world, such as the queen of my dynasty, and His Majesty Taizong have shared joys and sorrows for decades, Fang created my great country, and for example, Queen Duankang, every fifteenth day must be clothed and vegetarian, and feel the suffering of the people, so..."

He raised an eyebrow: "So? ”

Su Ming's face did not change: "Therefore, the palace is out of the palace today, for His Majesty to observe the people's feelings, worry about the people's worries, and enjoy the people's pleasures, and can set an example for the harem in the future. ”

"Everyone in the harem imitates the queen?" He urged: "That's really a great story, in this case, it's inconvenient for me to disturb the queen mother out of the palace... Observing the people's feelings, he retired first"

Really?!

Seeing that he was leaving, Su Ying was a little anxious, so she stepped forward and asked him in a low voice, "Who is that person?" ”

Pei Zhao said: "You have never seen him before, he is Lin Bu, the right general of the Xuanjia Army, who has followed me for many years." ”

It turned out to be someone who could be trusted. Su Ying breathed a sigh of relief, and said in anticipation: "You... Can you take us out? ”

He seemed puzzled, "Why?" ”

Su Ying was cross-hearted: "Okay, in fact, many of the things I just said are all about you, the palace ladies in my palace don't know why they are very busy these days, and even Duanniang is not as strict as before, so I want to sneak out to play." She brushed aside the flower branches that hung on her head from time to time: "I wanted to dress up as a palace maid, saying that I was leaving the palace at the will of the queen, but when I got out of Hanyuan Palace, I found that I forgot to take the phoenix seal." There was a hint of pleading in his tone: "Except for Duanniang and Yunluo in this palace, I am only familiar with you, if you don't help me, I won't be able to leave the palace." ”

He seemed to tease her: "Why should I help you? ”

Su Ying gently kicked away a stone at his feet: "I haven't been out of the palace for a long time to see, I heard that there is a Yuzhou team in Kyoto recently, and there is a craft called beating trees and flowers, the golden light is splashed, and it looks very good, and it will be my birthday in two months, this is the best gift." ”

This excuse is far-fetched, she is thinking about finding the most reasonable, best so that he can't even say a word of rebuttal, looking at the prince's regular clothes on his body, she suddenly thought of a very majestic reason: "You are the prince, I am your mother, the mother's orders, as a son of man, how can you not obey?" ”

The smile on the corner of his lips suddenly faded, his brows furrowed slightly, and he turned around and walked towards the palace gate, she thought that she must have said the wrong thing, but she didn't know what was wrong, he walked a few steps and turned around, and saw Su Ying standing in place, and said coldly: "Don't you want to go out?" What are you doing there? ”

This is the first time she has seen Pei Zhao with a cold face, she used to hear others say how King Ning was unsmiling, indifferent and ruthless, and he was simply a cold-faced Shura on the battlefield, she used to be very unimpressed, but today she found out that this was indeed the case. Pei Zhao got angry... It's scary.

Su Ying hurriedly pulled Yun Luo to follow him closely, and walked out of the palace very smoothly, he called the guards who had been following far behind to give a few orders, and turned his head to look at her: "The place of the fence must be in the back before you can enter, it is better to wander around in this street and alley first." Seeing that Su Jin's face was full of joy, he said lightly: "But you have to remember that I will take you out of the palace today, not because I regard you as the queen mother." ”

His face seemed to be the same as usual, but his eyes were full of uncertain emotions, which made Su Ying breathless, she knew that he must be angry, but why was he angry?

Thinking about it, it must be his "queen mother" just now that annoyed him, yes, where in this world would anyone be willing to recognize a person who is nearly ten years younger than himself as a mother? Su Ying couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the picture of holding a nine-year-old doll and calling for "mother", and his mother died early, Fang Cai's words must have hit him hard in the sore spot, which really shouldn't be. When he came back to his senses, he walked a long way away, and hurried to catch up, thinking that when he saw something good in the market, he would buy one for him, and apologize.

Tianjing is known as the "Heavenly City", and even on ordinary days, it is very prosperous. The wide avenue paved with blue bricks and stones is lined with large and small shop stalls, the aroma of tea and wine mixed with the aroma of cake and bait on the snack stalls is everywhere, and the cries of selling one after another are endless, Su Ying pulled him to a vendor selling sugar gourds, picked a string of the largest and reddest flattering and handed it to him, he glanced at it, and walked straight forward. If he didn't even look at it, he must have been very annoyed, and alas, he didn't know how to calm his anger. Su Ying looked at the dazzling array of things, and took a bite of the sugar gourd, the sugar gourd was sweet and sour, but she was very distressed in her heart.

"Still not keeping up?" Pei Zhao walked in front of him, and when he walked to the door of a wine shop, he didn't see Su Ming's figure, so he turned around and looked for someone.

Su Ying hurriedly agreed, lifted her skirt and ran over quickly.

The orchid who danced in front of the wine shop had bells tied to her wrists and ankles, and they were very beautiful, Su Ying happily looked here and there, and touched there, the guard and Yunluo had been following far behind, he was very leisurely and accompanied her around, and I don't know how long she had been shopping, she stopped suddenly, took out something with a smile and handed it to him, he took it and looked, it turned out to be a mud whistle made like a yellow warbler, she smiled: "This is given to you, don't be angry anymore." ”

He wondered, "When did I get angry?" ”

"It's just ...... just now"

Fang just sent a wave of anger at Su Ying for no reason, Pei Zhao actually regretted it a long time ago, just because he had always been cold-hearted and cold-faced, and he didn't know how to apologize to Su Ying for a while. Those words, if they didn't seem to others to be wrong, but these words hit the biggest pain in his heart, and they came out of Su Jin's mouth.

"I'm not angry." He looked at Su Ying calmly: "I just don't like to hear that kind of thing from your mouth, Fang is not good." ”

Look, Pei Zhao was really unhappy because of this reason. Su Ying secretly wrote down today's lesson in her heart, and when she turned her eyes, she was still smiling: "Since you are not angry, it is even better." Pointing to the teahouse in front of him: "The storyteller of this house knows a lot of interesting things, and it is very fun, let me invite you to listen to the book?" ”

He asked, "What do you say?" ”

She said with great interest: "For example, the virtuous king Chen Youwang thousands of years ago actually had a habit of dragon yang, and there were always more Qingjun Xiaoqi in the palace, and Emperor Hui of the previous dynasty was also like this, but it is said that one of his favorite chamberlains had a beautiful sister, who cured Emperor Hui's quirks. And yes. She said with a smile on her eyebrows: "The princess of Chaoyang and the county lord of Qingping once fought for General Longwu, but the person General Longwu liked was a dancing girl in the hook column. Oh, now the old man who loves to write a straight face makes the old master Sun very afraid, and Mr. said that his wife is very fierce, and he beats and scolds Lord Wu at every turn. He turned to him and asked, "Isn't it funny, you say?" ”

He smiled reluctantly: "......"
