Concubine Ming returned to her palace, suppressed her anger and almost condensed into a substance.

A palace maid trembled, the more careful she was, the easier it was to make mistakes, accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt and fell to the ground. The warm tea was splashed, and a few drops wet the Ming Concubine's shawl.

Concubine Ming stared at the shawl for a while, showing an extremely bright smile. The red lips are lightly opened, and the cold penetrates the bone marrow. "I don't know how to be humble, drag it down, and I will be killed with a rod."

The palace maid was desperate and begged for mercy with fear in her eyes, but was dragged down like rags by the eunuchs.

The palace maid Yi'er said worriedly: "Wait first." Niangniang, just spare her a cheap life. A lowly palace maid is not a pity, if it affects the reputation of the mother, the gain outweighs the loss. ”

Concubine Ming was unwilling, and her cheeks still had the feeling of being hot after being beaten. What made her even more humiliating and resentful was that she did it herself in front of so many people.

Yi'er waved at the eunuchs and motioned for them to take the people down first. She folded back to the table, took a new cup of tea, and handed it to Concubine Ming. "The slave knows that Niangniang is wronged, but now the situation is pressing, and I hope that Niangniang will be patient. As long as you endure a period of time, with the mother's appearance and intelligence, why can't you regain the sacred heart? ”

Concubine Ming was not stupid, and sneered: "There are so many women in the harem, unless she is willing, which one can get a share of the holy family from my sister?" This time, she clearly didn't want to pull me again, so why should I listen to her again and be a gentle and virtuous person. ”

"Niangniang's words are wrong. Niangniang, you are already gentle and lovely, what you lack now is just timing. ”

Concubine Ming looked at her, "What do you mean?" ”

"Forgive the slave for your audacity, mother, you don't see your advantage. You are in the prime of life, and you have advantages that other mothers do not have, as long as you are willing to endure for a while, and wait for Your Majesty to forget the previous unhappiness, and then slowly figure it out, the future can be expected. ”

"So, what should I do? Do you continue to please your sister? Concubine Ming was very disgusted by this proposal.

"The slave has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not."

"Say it quickly."

Yi'er said: "The timing of what the slave said is not to make the mother wait patiently. Niangniang, imagine if something went wrong with the concubine...... At that time, won't the opportunity for the mother come? ”

"Presumptuous! Are you asking me to frame my sister? Although this palace is dissatisfied with my sister's domineering, if she is rejected by His Majesty, won't I be affected! ”

Yi'er was not busy explaining, but said, "Niangniang, what will happen if the news of General Yan's serious injury and dying spreads?" ”

Concubine Ming was stunned, this news has been suppressed, and their sisters in the harem know about it. At the flower party, it was only said to Princess Yanjun. As for the others, Ming Concubine was sure that those noble ladies were not bold enough to eavesdrop on them. Even if you have no brains and courage, it's very big.,Hmph.,The secret guard is not an ornament.。

"Niangniang, think about it, tracing back to the source, the news was said by the concubine Niangniang. Even if everyone is well known, as long as you are cautious, who can know that it is the handiwork of the mother? Could it be that His Majesty will still send the Restoration Division to check on Niangniang? Yi'er said: "Moreover, this move is not to frame the concubine Niangniang. ”

"Oh? So what do you mean? ”

"The reputation of Princess Yanjun is known to everyone, and if she leaks military information, no one will doubt it. Isn't Niangniang a woman who has never liked Yanfu, so why don't you take advantage of this to make them suffer. Moreover, Concubine Yu has been moving a lot recently, although she doesn't know what she is doing, it won't be a good thing to think about it. Concubine Yu has always been at odds with her mother, if she hadn't helped that An Guiren last time, how could His Majesty be forced to punish Niangniang? ”

Concubine Ming thought of Concubine Yu, and the anger in her heart rose a little more. "Hmph, that slut, I'm going to make her look good one day sooner or later!" In a blink of an eye, she asked, "How can this have anything to do with Concubine Yu's slut?" ”

"Niangniang still remembers that the slave maid and Concubine Yu's confidant Rong'er are fellow villagers."

Ming Concubine thought for a moment, "You once said. But that minion wasn't a stupid man. ”

"Rong'er is indeed smart, if the mother believes in the slave maid, leave this matter to the slave and maid." Yi'er said.

Yi'er walked to Concubine Ming, knelt down and said, "Niangniang, you are the reborn parents of the slave, if it weren't for you, the slave would have turned into white bones." The slave maid knows that Niangniang has been depressed recently, and the slave maid can't bear to be so wronged, and just wants to contribute her modest efforts to share her worries and relieve her labor. Niangniang doesn't have to worry, if the truth is found out one day, the slave and maid have also figured out a way, and it will never affect Niangniang. ”

Ming Concubine pondered for a long time, and the more she walked, the more she became more and more excited. Yi'er's confession also made her a little moved.

Concubine Ming personally helped her up, "I know your intentions, but this matter is too dangerous." ”

Yi'er promised: "Niangniang, the slave will definitely handle this for you." The slave won't tell you exactly how to do it. No matter what happens in the future, please pretend that you don't know, and then push it on the slave. Now, please punish the slave and maid severely. ”

Concubine Ming was silent, she naturally couldn't move her sister's position, but if she could pull Concubine Yu off the horse first and become one of the second concubines, she would be qualified to really confront her sister.

She raised her hand slowly, she didn't want to be controlled by her sister anymore, she didn't want to live in her shadow anymore, she didn't want to ......

Syllable!

"Someone! Drag down this dog slave who does not know dignity and humbleness, and scolds him with twenty rods! ”

***

Yan Huo watched Xun Yu pack his luggage, frowning.

"Liu Shengshou has returned, you ......"

Xun Yu put the last medical technique into the ring before looking back at him. "You have confirmed Yan Jue's injury, if you hadn't given her the medicine I gave you at the beginning, all you can do now is to collect the corpse for her."

Yan Hui's brows were almost squeezed together.

The news from Qinghewei was much faster than that of the imperial court messenger. He had asked Liu Shengshou before, and he couldn't be sure that he would be able to save her.

Liu Shengshou can't, in the whole world, only Xun Yu can save her.

But Liu Shengshou's words are still vivid.

Yan Huo has tried several times in the past few days, but he has been bypassed by Xun Yu or simply not answered. There is no way to know what price Xun Yu has paid, and how he can be willing to let her go to the dangerous border alone.

But he couldn't say anything to stop him.

Caught between a dilemma and a loss.

"Is that what you can do over there?"

A sense of powerlessness that was enough to drown the soul surged over, and Yan Huo sat on the chair, looking tired. "Everything is in place."

His identity is destined to make it impossible for him to leave Shangjing, even if it is Xun Yu, if he wants to leave, he must avoid everyone's eyes and ears. The person who disguised her had already been secretly sent to Qingli Courtyard.

"Is this embarrassing to you?" Xun Yu was puzzled, "I'm going to save your sister, aren't you happy?" ”

"No, I'm happy."

Xun Yu's face was expressionless, and "Are you a fool for me" written in his eyes.

Yan Huo didn't want to say more, got up and went to the inner room, and took out a box.

Inside the box is a round and clear jade bracelet. He took out the bracelet, which was only more than 100 years old, and put it on Xun Yu's wrist.

Xun Yu didn't like jewelry and wanted to withdraw his hand, but was held tightly by Yan Hui.

The jade bracelet makes the hand as clean as jade more and more beautiful, and adds a bit of fragility, which makes people want to collect and protect it more and more.

Xun Yu shook uncomfortably, feeling awkward. I was going to take it off after I left, but I heard Yan Hui say, "This is the only relic my mother left me." It is said to be the heirloom of the Yan family. She should have given it to you herself...... However, she has a spirit in heaven, and she will be happy to know that this bracelet has an owner. ”

Xun language: "......"

Suddenly, the weight of the bracelet was terrifying.

"This trip is dangerous, and I can't accompany it. Yue'er and the others can't follow you. I have arranged for someone else to protect and serve you. I know that you are strong, but you are unpredictable, and the strongest can also be eaten by ants...... If you don't like it, let them follow you from afar. ”

Xun Yu looked at the bracelet in a daze.

Yan Huo didn't know that his move was just to find peace of mind, but it was very necessary for Xun Yu. Even if he doesn't arrange it, Xun Yu will ask for someone.

"When I went to the border pass, except for my sister and her two lieutenants, no one else was trusted." Yan Huo reminded: "The superintendent Wang Kunai was sent by His Majesty to spy on my sister, he is ostensibly the emperor's person, but in fact he has a deep relationship with the Governor of Fuming. ”

Murong Yao acted quickly, and in just a few months after her sister returned to Beijing last year, she placed many people in. When my sister was ordered to return to the border pass, she put Wang Ke in the army, obviously for surveillance.

"If you put these silver taels on your body and go out, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents. You have many precious things that you can exchange for silver taels, but they are too dazzling. ”

Yan Hui handed her a small burden. When I opened it, I saw a stack of silver bills of one hundred taels of denominations, dozens of gold leaves, more than ten ingots and ten taels of silver, a string of thousands of copper coins and some broken silver, which could be said to have been prepared extremely carefully.

"Everything else has already been prepared, these pastries are just prepared in the kitchen, you can put some too. There are also some cooked food, I don't know if your space is warm, if it is warm, you can also bring some. It's bitter cold at the border, I don't know how long you have to stay there, bring more thick clothes, and brocade quilts......"

Xun Yu quietly listened to Yan Hui's almost nagging arrangement, and a warm feeling flowed in his heart, dispelling the slight chill brought by the cool breeze.

"Yan Hui."

"Huh? What's wrong, but there's something missing? ”

"I can't fit it."

Yan Hui: "......"

He pulled the corners of his mouth in embarrassment, met her eyes with a faint smile, was a little cramped, and hurriedly changed the topic, "You can sleep for a while, you have to hurry at night." ”

The galaxy hangs, and the night insects chirp.

They crossed the defenses and quietly went out of the city. At the foot of a hill not far outside the city, a modest carriage was parked.

Yan Hui handed the package to the coachman, "Take care of the princess." ”

"Yes!"

Since ancient times, it has been the most bitter parting.

The thousands of emotional entanglements in my heart are appealed to my lips and teeth, but there are only a few pale words.

Xun Yu stepped into the carriage, suddenly turned around, and said.

"Yan Hui, you remember, I can't save you anymore."

So, take care of yourself.
