Chapter 107: Old Man's Clothes
Qingliu's face was full of surprise, "Lord Wang, you ......"
"Go!"
Being yelled at by Bai Feiye like this, although Qingliu had doubts, he didn't dare to think about it, his figure flashed and disappeared into the house.
His reaction was fully seen by Mu Nishang, who was sitting opposite, her phoenix eyes were slightly raised, looking at the direction of Qingliu leaving outside the door,
"Aren't you going?"
Bai Feiye brought another celadon cup, lowered his eyes and poured tea,
"Ni Shang, go on."
Mu Nishang chuckled,
"Okay."
……
The carriage was like the morning, and it went all the way around the palace wall.
After taking the elixir that he had gotten from Ah Qi's hand to nourish his internal organs, Ling Ling secretly rejoiced in the carriage. Although she knew that it was not a good thing to be called into the palace by Murong Xue at night, fortunately, it was really someone sent by Murong Xue to pick her up. If someone else said that they would take her into the palace under the banner of Murong Xue, I am afraid that she would already be more than lucky.
It's just that after thinking about it, she doesn't have much intersection with Murong Xue, and she doesn't know much about her, the purpose of Murong Xue asking her to enter the palace, the only thing Ling Ling can think of can only be because of Xiahou Ling, if it is really to find out her true identity, then she has a way to get out of the palace.
Thinking about it, the carriage stopped slowly, and the sound of Yunwan came from outside the car,
"City Lord Ling, Ning Xue Palace has arrived."
Ling Ling followed Yun Wan and the others towards the palace. She looked at the golden plaque engraved with "Ning Xue Palace" on the eaves, and thought of the Xue Ning Pavilion that had been burned down by her, and her eyes flashed with disgust.
The incense in the dormitory was lit with a somewhat stuffy incense, Murong Xue was half-leaning on the chaise longue noble and elegant, the mahogany table beside her was full of pastries and tea, she squinted at Ling Ling, after seeing Ling Ling's pink and white dress that she had not had time to change, a touch of surprise flashed in her eyes, with a hint of smile on the corner of her mouth, she got up lazily and sat up straight,
"At the palace banquet, I wanted to chat with the Ling City Lord, but I didn't think that the Ling City Lord would disappear after staying for long, so the palace had to send Yun Wan a few out of the palace to invite the Ling City Lord over again."
She raised her hand to signal Ling Ling to sit down, Ling Ling did not hesitate, nodded and sat down under the gaze of Yun Wan and the four of them, seeing Ling Ling sitting down obediently, Murong Xue raised her eyes and looked at Yun Wan,
"This palace wants to chat with the Lord of Lingcheng. Just wait outside. ”
"Yes, sissy."
The four of them saluted and turned to leave, and the moment before going out, Yun Wan turned his head and swept his gaze over Ling Ling with a deep hatred.
"I don't know if Niangniang called the minister into the palace so late, what do you want to talk to the minister?"
The smell of the room made her hair stuffy, and as soon as she sat down, she wanted to leave as soon as possible.
Murong Xue left the chaise longue and came to Ling Ling's side, picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.
"Three years ago, that is, on the fifth day of the first day of November in Yikang, King Jing Bai Feiye's birthday, a banquet was held in the palace, and it was just as the concubine selection ceremony was approaching, and many official ladies were vying to be the first to perform.
Her eyes are far away, as if she is recalling a beautiful past,
"And among the many performances, there is one person's performance, which everyone present remembers in their hearts, and it will occasionally be mentioned after tea and dinner, does the Lord of Ling City know who it is?"
Ling Ling lowered his eyes to look at the tea and shook his head, "I don't know. ”
Murong Xue looked at her with a light smile, "When this palace first saw Ling City Lord in the Imperial Garden, I said that Ling City Lord looked very similar to a deceased sister of this palace, and that person was the deceased sister, Xiahou Ling. That day she danced in front of everyone, the dance was novel and peculiar, like a real little animal, so that all those who saw it could not take their eyes off, I thought that she would jump up at the concubine selection ceremony in the future, and serve the emperor with me, which thought that a fire in the Jingwang Mansion ended all this possibility. ”
Ling Ling said regretfully, "The world is unpredictable. ”
"But it's really magical, these days, when I see you in this palace, it's like really seeing Sister Xiahou, and I'm very happy,"
Murong Xue sat beside Ling Ling, holding Ling Ling's hand with her delicate and white hands, she was beautiful and moving, her skin was better than snow, like a fairy who did not eat fireworks in the world,
"Especially. Seeing that the clothes that City Lord Ling was wearing at the moment were exactly the same as the ones she wore when she entered the palace, this palace really wanted to call you, Sister Xiahou. ”
Ling Ling was shocked in her heart, she was in a trance after saying goodbye to Bai Feiye on the street, and when she returned to the mask shop, she directly experienced Yun Wan's pressure on her, why did she forget to find a reason to change her clothes first!
She pretended to be calm, "Today's palace banquet ministers drank a few more glasses, and felt a little stuffy and panicked, so they wanted to go out to breathe, but when they passed by the imperial garden, their clothes were accidentally cut by sharp branches, and they thought that the ministers and officials in the palace were all present, so it was extremely embarrassing to look like this, so I went out of the palace and changed my clothes on the street, but I didn't expect such a coincidence." ”
Seeing that her attitude was the same, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Murong Xue's eyes. The note Yun Chu gave her was written with everything that Ling Ling had been able to investigate since she appeared, but that information was fragmentary and very scarce.
The note only said that at the beginning of the second year of Yikang, she followed Huo Yun back to Longyunmen, and it didn't take long for her to leave Longyunmen to go out to learn art, and in three years, she passed the three tests in Longyunmen and became the master of the young gate, and then she was named the city lord of Mingyue City, that's all. And where she came from and what she went through in three years, it is almost impossible to find out.
Although everything had nothing to do with Xiahou Ling, after thinking about it carefully, Xiahou Ling died on the first day of the first month of the second year of Yikang, and Ling Ling appeared at the beginning of that year...... The jade hand in Murong Xueguang's sleeve was clenched, Bai Yixiu was obviously interested in her, whether it was her or not, for the sake of her status in the palace, she couldn't leave this hidden danger!
She looked at Ling Ling with red eyes, and crystal tears swirled in her eyes. "This palace also knows that the old man can't come back, but this palace feels very kind when he sees Ling City Lord, I don't know if you are willing to be a good sister of this palace and be worthy of the sisters of this palace?"
Hearing her words, Ling Ling's back was cold, and the Murong Xue she saw in her eyes was so sincere, although she didn't know what her purpose was, it must not be a good thing for herself!
The stuffy aroma in the room made her head feel heavier and heavier, Ling Ling secretly screamed that it was not good, I was afraid that there was something wrong with the incense in Murong Xue's bedroom, but her internal breath was unstable and she couldn't resist it at all, she pinched herself with her hand, trying to stay awake.
"Niangniang is willing to be commensurate with my sister, I am naturally willing, but I suddenly remembered that there are still some things in Mingyue City that have not been discussed with the emperor, in order not to let the emperor wait for a long time, my sister will retire first, and I will be free another day, and I will come to talk to my sister again."
After that, she stood up and tried to leave the dormitory, but she suddenly lost strength in her legs, Ling Ling sat down again, the weight of her head made her unable to support it, so she had to lie on the mahogany table, her breathing gradually slowed, she raised her eyes to look at Murong Xue, who was looking at her with her eyes down, and held on to her senses,
"You poisoned the incense!"
