Garter Hall.

Shen Run sat under the lamp, finished writing a letter, sealed it with fire paint, handed it to Fu Li, and said softly: "Go and send it to Qin Shuo." After a pause, he added, "Pick some gifts and bring them with you, and you don't have to hide it when you meet people, but it will arouse suspicion." ”

"Yes." Fu Li responded, took the letter and put it away, and withdrew.

Shen Run sat on the chair and pondered for a long time, as if in a fugue, and after a long time, he suddenly stood up and left the Jiade Palace.

……

Fu Li walked out of the Jiade Palace, called a little eunuch to choose some tonic and hugged it, and walked outside the palace. When he passed by Cardinal Alley, he saw a large number of lights suddenly appear in the dark night ahead, which made his heart skip a beat.

Now there are only two masters in the palace, the Phoenix Lord and His Majesty, who dare to use such a large area of lights at night, looking at the specifications, it is not the Phoenix Lord, but it must be someone from the Phoenix Palace.

Fu Li's heart tensed, and after a slight pause in his footsteps, he took another step, and he walked forward calmly.

Cardinal Lane only leads to the palace gate, which is the only way out of the palace.

He thought that the person coming in front of him was probably Huo Wu, but when he looked closer, the person who came was actually Si Ba, he was a little surprised, and his heart sank for a moment and then pounded again.

Si Ba was not surprised to see him, walked over with a smile, and politely gave a salute:

"Hello to Master Fu."

Fu Li hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Miss Siba." ”

"It's so late, is Lord Fu going to leave the palace?" Si Ba asked with a smile.

"Yes, no, Lord Qin has just returned from the epidemic area, Your Majesty is sympathetic to Lord Qin's hard work, and specially rewarded some supplements and ordered me to send them to Lord Qin." Fu Li pointed to the little eunuch behind him and smiled impeccablely.

"His Royal Highness King Rong is kind, it's so late, and he asked Lord Fu to deliver something." Si Ba's voice was naturally slightly sharp, but he smiled gently.

Fu Li felt that her words didn't look like praise at all, but he could only pretend to be confused and prevaricate, he asked with a smile:

"The girl is so late, did she just come back from outside the palace?"

"It's also a coincidence, His Royal Highness King Rong ordered Lord Fu to go out of the palace to send gifts, and earlier our Royal Highness also sent me out of the palace to send gifts, and I just came back after sending it."

If what she said was true, it was really a coincidence, but because it was too much of a coincidence, Fu Li didn't believe it. But with his current status, he couldn't interrogate Si Ba, so he had to cover it with a smile.

The two of them exchanged two more polite words, Si Ba smiled, Shi Shiran said goodbye, and then crossed him and walked in the direction of the Phoenix Palace.

Fu Li couldn't help but glance back at her, her back was thin and charming, and at the same time she was flamboyant and beautiful.

She didn't feel uncomfortable in the face of him, and he thought that she had probably forgotten what he had said to her on impulse.

Fu Li likes Si Ba, and when Si Ba was a maid in King Rong's mansion, he liked her very much.

At that time, Fu Li had seen her talk to the maid of Rongwangfu more than once, there was no restraint of aliens at all, she could easily integrate into a strange circle, and the introverted Fu Li was very envious of her boldness, and she could boast about anyone, he liked her lively and clever temperament.

Of course, if you tell the truth, he also likes her beauty very much, and the beauty of the women of the Fengying Kingdom is not comparable to the women of the Longxi Kingdom. But he really didn't just because of her looks, he and you liked the way she laughed cheerfully and slyly, and her shrill voice.

For a while, he thought that Lord Feng would become His Majesty's wife, even if he couldn't become a wife, he was a concubine, and His Royal Highness Lord Feng was a princess of a country, and the maids around her were different from ordinary maids, and they must be female officials of the same rank. With the degree to which His Majesty likes Lord Feng, Fu Li, as His Majesty's confidant, is no more common than marrying the female official next to Lord Feng, and he will not be opposed. At that time, he was still very happy to think that when His Majesty successfully ascended the throne and included Lord Feng in the harem, he could confide his heart to Miss Siba, and then go to His Majesty to ask for marriage, and His Majesty would definitely not object.

As a result, His Majesty and Lord Feng didn't succeed, and he also beat the single, and his father and mother were so angry that they almost broke off relations with him after he rejected twenty girls in a row.

It's not that he's because of Miss Siba, so what's going on, he just thinks that the girls who the family told him are uninteresting and undesirable, he doesn't want to marry someone, but it delays other girls.

At that time, he had already given up, but unexpectedly, His Majesty and Lord Feng were better again. Before he could ignite hope, he was again in a dead end. Because at that time, he suddenly discovered that the lively, lovely and beautiful girl in his mind was not the Bingqing Yujie he imagined, and there was also a bloodthirsty side. And, she rejected him with an expression that she found him boring.

Now, the tide is reversed again, and her position is overpowering him.

Fu Li watched Si Ba's figure disappear into the night, and sighed heavily.

He felt that he was going to die alone in his life.

……

Phoenix Palace.

Chenguang was sitting in front of the makeup mirror, Si Qi was combing her hair, Si Ba walked in with a smile and said:

"Your Highness, the gift has been sent to the second young lady Xue, the second young lady was so shocked that she was lying on the bed, and she almost jumped up, but the slave hurriedly held it down and talked to her for a while. After a while, Mrs. Xue came, Mrs. Xue kept glaring at the second young lady fiercely, the second young lady looked aggrieved, and she didn't dare to cry, and the slave felt a little pitiful when she saw it. ”

"That second young lady doesn't have a mother's family?" Si Shi couldn't help but ask.

"Her father was gone a few years ago, her brother was not successful, her mother's family fell, she was not favored, and her mother-in-law began to spoil her, otherwise how could everyone faint in the imperial garden, no one paid attention to her, if I hadn't passed by, something might not have happened. Seeing that she is so thin, maybe her in-laws won't give her food. ”

"Say what? No matter how you say that the Xue family is also a famous family, how could she not give her daughter-in-law food. Si Qi couldn't cry or laugh.

"The more famous the family, the more black-hearted."

At today's banquet for the envoys of the Chiyang Kingdom, in order to add a little color and not make the atmosphere of the banquet too hard, the noble ladies of the Qi'an were also invited to participate.

Before the banquet, Shen Qingyi led the ladies to wait in the garden for the banquet, and I don't know what the reason is, the second young lady of the Xue family, that is, Ye Qi, Xue Chong's wife, fainted alone in a no-man's corner of the garden.

Ye Qi's mother-in-law, Mrs. Xue, because her daughter-in-law lost face to the family, her face was extremely ugly, and she counted a few words from her daughter-in-law.

Si Ba didn't care either.
