After Zhen'er came out of the Yuzao Palace, she kept her face contemplating and walked with her head down, but she didn't see the people in front of her walking in her direction.

The footsteps of the clogs were getting closer and closer, only to wake up her contemplation, Zhen'er looked up at it, it was Dai Qing who came with a group of people, a few little palace maids behind Dai Qing were holding things in their hands, and they were high, and when they looked closely, it was dessert, Dai Qing was the person next to Empress Lu, Zhen'er didn't dare to pretend not to see it, so she went up to say hello to Dai Qing.

"Sister Dai Qing." Zhen'er took the bait and bowed to Dai Qing as a vegetarian salute.

Dai Qing saw that it was Zhen'er, so he raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, glanced at her with disdain, and then snorted coldly, and then the leader and several other people all looked at Zhen'er with arrogant cold eyes. Usually seeing Empress Lu being snubbed by the emperor is all because of the hostess of Yuzao Palace, but now that she met her girl, Dai Qing and his party took advantage of Zhen'er's weak strength to make it difficult for her, and insisted that Zhen'er grovel in front of these palace people led by Dai Qing. circled around Zhen'er twice, looked at the bait in Zhen'er's hand, reached out and flipped it casually, half-raised his neck, his eyes squinted at Zhen'er and asked coldly, "Who will you give it to?" ”

"Mrs. Qi said that Shi Meiren likes to eat it, so she will send it to her." Zhen'er knows that Dai Qing belongs to Empress Lu, even if Empress Lu is not favored, but she knows Empress Lu's temperament, she often hears about Empress Lu's previous stories, and over time she is imperceptibly affected by other people's statements, even if she doesn't see Empress Lu, she can feel her majesty and breath on the side of her ears, and she can see that Empress Lu's usual non-anger and self-authority are enough to suppress others. Although Mrs. Qi is favored by the emperor, her means are not as good as Empress Lu, although she is charming by nature, she is not resolute enough in her bones. Zhen'er is subordinate to Mrs. Qi, firstly, Empress Lu's identity is above Mrs. Qi, and secondly, Zhen'er also wants to leave a way back for herself, and has seen more open and secret battles between Mrs. Qi and Empress Lu, who is more capable of subduing the other person, Zhen'er also has a scale in her heart. Every time she sees someone in Changxin Palace, Zhen'er wants to surrender her dignity and be at the mercy of her, not to mention that she meets Dai Qing today.

Dai Qing nodded, "Acting King and Mrs. Qi are here, right?" ”

'Hmm', Zhen'er never dared to raise her head, bowed and replied, "It's all here, the emperor is also there." ”

"There you go." Dai Qing took the initiative to ask everyone to get out of the way this time, and Zhen'er retreated out of the 'encirclement' of Dai Qing and his party. Dai Qing almost watched Zhen'er disappear into the corner of the back porch, and couldn't help but feel a chill coming in from behind, looking at Zhen'er's back and squinting at herself, she said to herself, "It seems that the water here is very deep." ”

Zhen'er hurried to the palace where Shi Meiren lived with the bait, and she was originally trotting, but as soon as she entered the main hall, she immediately slowed down, and walked up respectfully as usual, holding the bait plate high in her hand. As soon as I went up to the steps of the inner hall, a beautiful woman came out from behind the screen, and when I saw Zhen'er, I couldn't help but be happy, and blurted out, "Ah Zhen......" hurried down the steps to welcome Zhen'er.

Zhen'er acted as if she didn't know her, took three steps back from the hands she was about to hold her, raised the plate in her hand and bowed her head respectfully, and said in a proper manner, "See the beauty." Zhen'er's move seemed to remind Shi Meiren of something.

Hearing Zhen'er say this, and seeing her saluting respectfully to herself, making an unfamiliar appearance between the two, Shi Meiren is also an extremely smart person, and quickly thought of what Zhen'er was worried about, so she stopped smiling and said to both sides, "Go down." ”

The palace maids standing on both sides all went down, leaving only Zhen'er and Shi Meiren.

"Ah Zhen, why are you here?" Shi Meiren panicked and was surprised, walked quickly to Zhen'er's side, put one hand on Zhen'er's shoulder, looked behind Zhen'er and looked again, and asked with a high degree of nervousness, "Is it safe?" ”

Zhen'er nodded, "Don't worry, Mrs. Qi called me here." After speaking, he handed the bait in his hand to Shi Meiren's eyes, and questioned, "Do you like to eat bait?" ”

Shi Meiren raised her eyebrows, looked at Zhen'er with wide eyes, withdrew her gaze from Zhen'er, lowered her head and said lightly, "Is there a problem?" ”

Zhen'er put the bait on a few cases, grabbed Shi Meiren's shoulder, although her voice was forced to be suppressed to the lowest, but she couldn't hear the suffocated complaint, "Who are you targeting?" Is it Mrs. Qi? ”

Shi Meiren was silent, and glanced at Zhen'er again in silence, Zhen'er was waiting for her answer, Shi Meiren was stared at by Zhen'er uncomfortable, and said lightly, "You don't care." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhen'er almost pleaded with tears in her eyes, "Sister, stop when it's time to stop, you are not their opponent, you have nothing, the emperor does not favor you, and you do not have the noble status of the queen, what do you use to fight with them?" Jane grabbed her hand again and shook it hard.

Shi Meiren had already become impatient, and every time they met, she had to quarrel like this, shook off Zhen'er's hand, and roared with a little anger without scruples, "I said a long time ago, if you don't help me, I have my own way, and you don't have to be so entangled." It's because I don't have anything that they let their guard down. Throwing down a sentence, he stood up angrily and said no more, no matter what eyes Zhen'er was looking at her at this time.

Zhen'er sat slumped on the mat, dumbfounded and lost. In fact, she had long thought that it would be like this, she was very entangled, she didn't know how to persuade Shi Meiren to turn back, she had been walking on the edge of the cliff, she was afraid that one day she would fall down and break her bones. She had no way to tell her to turn back, she understood Sister A, there were tears in her eyes, but her tears couldn't wash away Shi Meiren's dirty thoughts, but Shi Meiren was indeed the sister she once loved very much.

"Why are you different from your cousin? My cousin is very respectful and deeply loved by His Majesty, but you are so adventurous? ”

"Shi Fen is Shi Fen, I am me." Shi Fen is the younger brother of Shi Meiren, during the Chu-Han War, Liu Bang led the army through Hanoi County to attack Xiang Yu and met Shi Fen, loved him very respectfully, and allowed him to serve himself as Zhongjuan, and then summoned his sister, and was enshrined as a beauty with a ribbon, favored for a period of time, and finally lost to Mrs. Qi, who was charming by nature and would sing and dance, was soon snubbed, and had a son Liu You for Liu Bang, but she was also a person who did not admit defeat by nature.

There was a dull atmosphere in the hall, Shi Meiren also sat back on the mat, took a piece of the bait on the several cases and pinched it in his hand, the pieces fell to the ground, and brushed the hair in front of his shoulders, muttered, sighed lightly, and leaned on a few cases with one hand to support his head and watched the cold wind outside the hall blow the red on the ground.

They were uncomfortably silent for a while, and a cold and sad sentence suddenly sounded in the hall, "If one day, you surface, Ah Zhen will go to Huangquan on your behalf." Jen'er said with tears in her eyes.

When Shi Meiren heard this, tears flowed down her eyes, she knew that Zhen'er would do this, and she would definitely do it. leaned over to Zhen'er, hugged Zhen'er, and the two hugged each other tightly, tears wetting each other's clothes. Shi Meiren stroked Zhen'er's back with both hands and comforted, "No, none of us will die, we won't die." ”

hugged each other and cried for a while, and then wiped tears for each other. Now that she knew that Sister Ah would not turn back, and had decided to help Sister A, Zhen'er also accompanied her on the adventure without hesitation, but she had already made a sacrifice at any time. At the beginning, Sister Ah said that she would pass on all the strange news from the outside world, but Zhen'er remembered what Liu Bang said, but she felt that it was about politics and useless, so she was not ready to speak. But the Huns' greeting is a major event in the palace after all, and there are always some things to talk about, so I can't help it after all, and I can't get around the matter of Princess Lu Yuan, Zhen'er sighed for the princess's worries, "Princess Lu Yuan is afraid that she will marry the Huns." ”

Shi Meiren was abruptly surprised when she heard this, she had long known that Liu Jingyuan went to the Xiongnu to make a pro-contract, and Empress Lu did not agree with Princess Lu Yuan to marry Hu Di, so the matter gradually fell silent and did not mention it again. Zhen'er said so abruptly, Shi Meiren thought that Zhen'er was a little flustered, how to mention Princess Lu Yuan again. smiled and said, "Hugh wants to talk nonsense, the princess is married to a wife, and you are the queen of Zhao, why did you talk about the princess abruptly?" ”

Zhen'er pursed her lips, saw that Shi Meiren looked disbelieving, approached her and whispered, "The emperor said that the Huns' welcoming team has arrived in Yanchi County, and it is expected to arrive in Chang'an in three days." ”

Shi Meiren stared at the mat in surprise, squinted and frowned, and the sky was surging in her eyes. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she shook Zhen'er's hand and asked eagerly, "Where is the emperor now?" ”

Zhen'er was a little embarrassed by her, it was a remark that was irrelevant, and she talked about the princess and the emperor, do you still want to persuade the emperor not to marry the princess? burst into laughter and quipped, "Sister is joking, how can you say that the princess asked Your Majesty, Sister wants to intercede for the princess?" ”

Shi Meiren looked at her naughty, so she slapped Zhen'er's hand heavily, "Go!" The princess is not my blood, why should I persuade the emperor? He took Zhen'er's hand again and asked eagerly, "Is the emperor at Mrs. Qi?" ”

Zhen'er frowned and pinched her chin and thought about it, and slightly remembered that when she came out, the emperor seemed to have said that she would go to Mrs. Guan after drinking tea, so she said, "When I came out, the emperor said that he was going to Mrs. Guan, and I heard that Mrs. Guan was sick again." ”

After that, Shi Meiren was stunned in frustration, her face was already blue for a moment, her eyes were dull, and her hands unconsciously deepened her grip on Zhen'er's hand, and Zhen'er made a painful 'ouch', seeing that Sister A's expression was strange, Zhen'er just pulled out her hand and shook it in front of her eyes. Shi Meiren immediately laughed, envy, jealousy and hatred were clear in the bright laughter, and the wind permeated the inside and outside of the hall, and she said with a hateful smile, "She has caught the emperor firmly recently." Then he snorted coldly, and secretly thought: a good scapegoat.

Zhen'er had a strange expression and looked at Shi Meiren's expression changing repeatedly, and she really couldn't figure it out, so she supported her head with one hand as if she was looking at a strange treasure, and looked at Shi Meiren without moving her eyes. Shi Meiren was drunk with all her plans, and unconsciously burst out a few laughs. When I turned my head, I saw Zhen'er staring at him with a strange expression, and laughed, laughing and scolding Zhen'er for being stupid and dumb, Avazi is the nickname of Hanoi. Zhen'er scolded back the stone beauty baby, which is also a nickname love language among relatives in the Hanoi area. The two teased each other, seeing that the time was not early, Shi Meiren was just about to ask the two palace people to bring some delicious food back to Zhen'er, Zhen'er hurriedly stopped Gongsu and shook her head, Shi Meiren felt dizzy when she thought about it, and immediately came to her senses. Send Zhen'er out of the hall and say, "The bait is good, thank you Mrs. Qi for me." Shi Meiren stuffed a delicious piece of cake bait into Zhen'er's mouth, who didn't have time to react, and said with a smile, "Is it delicious?" I didn't like to eat bait, but now I do. ”

Zhen'er held the bait that Shi Meiren forced into her mouth, and chewed it twice, it was really sweet and delicious. The cake bait yellow rice noodles are steamed, the inner layer is sandwiched with honey, and there is a peculiar rice flavor that spreads for seven miles just out of the pot, which is very sweet, except for the concubines of the beauty level or above, others can not eat such delicious things. Saying goodbye to Shi Meiren, she didn't take three steps down, and then turned around and asked, "Mrs. Qi said that she wanted to take back the brocade, have you done it?" ”

Shi Meiren 'um', instructed a palace person to hurry up to find out for Zhen'er, it is a golden silk brocade, embroidered with a vivid unicorn and a grass, the lively unicorn front two paws do climbing, the back two paws kick the ground, as if to help the body jump into the air, the body has an arc bending, the unicorn blazing double beads turned around and looked at the grass lively, very lively. She handed the brocade to Zhen'er, Zhen'er took it in her hand and looked at it, there was no problem, put it away and hid it in her sleeve, and then went down the steps, was pulled by Shi Meiren, and glanced at another palace person, and the palace person also took out a plain white brocade and handed it to Shi Meiren, but it was not as gorgeous as the one in front, but it was simple, simple, elegant and generous. Shi Meiren handed it to Zhen'er, Zhen'er was surprised, opened the brocade and took a look, embroidered four words 'Du Ruo Weiyang', Du Ruo, that is, the name of vanilla, also called mountain ginger, the ancients said that it was 'unforgettable', Weiyang, that is, unfinished meaning. Shi Meiren is meant to show that they do not forget each other. Zhen'er looked at Shi Meiren with a puzzled expression and muttered, "Du Ruoweiyang? Shi Meiren smiled, "For you, Avazi." ”

Zhen'er held the brocade in her hand, and there was a warmth in her heart, and there was still a trace of warmth in the deep palace that was the strongest motivation for her to have the courage to live. Then he hurriedly put the brocade into the sleeve on the other side of his shirt, and bent a warm smile towards Shi Meiren, who waved his hand and instructed, "Be careful." ”

Zhen'er nodded slightly, and quickly disappeared from Shi Meiren's sight.
