A red sun tore through the sky, revealing a blood-red glow. Not only does it dye the clouds red on the horizon, but it also illuminates half of the roof of the palace. A string of ice edges hung from the yellow glazed tiles, as if they were about to fall at any moment, and the transparent ice body was pierced by the sunlight, emitting an orange-red light.

Zhou Zhengzheng came out of the palace early in the morning, and Zhou Jinxuan had already sent a family member to pick her up.

After graduating from Tai Academy, Zhou Zheng was relaxed.

She wants to go back to the Wu Guogong Mansion, return to her home, and be with her relatives.

At the entrance of Jialitai College, people come and go, and it seems to be much more lively than before.

The gorgeous sedan chair came and went, and several people had been sent away, and some familiar ladies seized the time to confide in each other, and they didn't know when they would be able to get together again after they were separated at this moment.

Under the green pine tree, Du Lingling wore a Ruyi satin embroidered colorful auspicious cloud cotton jacket, which looked very joyful. And standing together, there are Zhao Xinyi wearing a peony phoenix pattern raccoon cotton jacket and Miao Ruolan wearing a pink brocade silk cotton jacket.

"Here, this is the sachet I sewed with my own hands," Du Lingling handed one to Zhao Xinyi and Miao Ruolan respectively, "Because it was too hasty, it was too late to fill the vanilla, and it was still a little regrettable." The corners of Du Lingling's mouth pursed slightly, and his expression was also very natural.

"That's pretty good, we can pretend to be our favorite herbs," Miao Ruolan comforted, "The sachet you embroidered is very beautiful, I will keep it well." ”

"Well, I took the sachet, and I also prepared a gift." Zhao Xinyi said and took out two bracelets.

They are all strung together from small shells, and you can see that it took a lot of effort at first glance.

"Wow, that's beautiful!" Du Lingling immediately praised happily, "Where did you get so many shells?" ”

"Secret, haha." Zhao Xinyi deliberately made a grimace.

"I also prepared a gift for you," Miao Ruolan seemed a little embarrassed, and her voice was a little soft, "I'm afraid that you will be hungry on the road, so I made hibiscus cake in a hurry." ”

"It's so fragrant, it must be delicious," Zhao Xinyi closed her eyes and looked intoxicated.

"Is there anything else, I'm afraid I won't have enough to eat," Du Lingling had already eaten, and before he could swallow it, he begged for a new one, and his mouth was bulging, which was very cute.

Wu Guogong Mansion.

The icy water of the lake seemed very quiet, like a bronze mirror, and there were no ripples. The clear reflection is both real and illusory, even the holes and root joints on the trunk of the tree can be clearly seen, and at the bottom of the water, a few turtles are curled up in a corner and do not move, at first glance, I thought it was a few stones.

In the room, a table of eight immortals is placed in the center, and the table is full of all kinds of snacks. There are glutinous mochi, sweet sesame sandwich cakes, and fragrant osmanthus cakes.

Next to the pastry, there is a blue and white pot, inside is a cup of ginseng soup, the soup is light but the medicinal aroma is rich.

This was specially prepared by Lin Yu for Zhou Zhengzheng.

"Ah Zheng has succeeded in his studies, and the matchmaker has also broken through the Wu Guogong Mansion, but I have sent them away." Lin Yu said, "Although Ah Zheng and Lin Zhongchao have not yet been decided, they have already exchanged tokens, and Ah Zheng has become famous." Besides, what Ah Zheng is thinking in his heart, how can I, as a mother, not know. ”

Zhou Zhengzheng grabbed a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it, and said while eating: "It's still the mother who knows her daughter best." ”

"What about Father? Doesn't my father know Ah Zheng? Zhou Jinxuan walked over with a jealous face, for my father, I brought you the news of Lin Zhongchao, he won another battle at the border pass, and his reputation is getting better and better. There are more and more people who defect to him. ”

Zhou Zhengzheng was very happy, so very good, when Lin Zhongchao returned with the prince a year later, even if Emperor Qingfeng did not admit it, even if Lin Feng and Lin Junsheng plotted, Lin Zhongchao already had the power to protect the prince and himself.

That's nice. Zhou Zhengzheng was happy for Lin Zhongchao in his heart.

Inside the palace, the gold-dusted pillars are resplendent in the sun, and the marble floor is also shiny.

On the Sumeru seat, the spacious palace is neat and symmetrical, and the rows of doors and windows are all open in the same direction, as if they were arranged by nature.

Lin Feng had already handed over the poison to Emperor Qingfeng.

Emperor Qingfeng immediately summoned Zhou Zhengzheng.

"Zhou Shangshu has worked hard, this is your favorite Tieguanyin. I specially asked someone to get the new tea from Yunnan to you quickly, and Zhou Shangshu tasted it. Emperor Qingfeng didn't smile at his skin, and asked people to bring a cup of tea to Zhou Zhengzheng.

Zhou Zheng is not a fool, this tea is given for no reason, and he has to drink it in front of Emperor Qingfeng, there must be something wrong with this tea.

But if you don't drink it, you are openly resisting.

Zhou Zheng pondered for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, the courtiers are only afraid that they will not have this blessing, they have been unwell recently and are taking medicine, and they are afraid that they will lose the effect of medicine when they drink tea." ”

Emperor Qingfeng had long expected that Zhou Zheng would refuse, and asked someone to bring a bowl of chicken soup and a cup of boiled water, "Since you can't drink tea, you can always drink the same chicken soup and white water!" ”

It seems that Emperor Qingfeng has also poisoned these two things.

Even if Zhou Zheng refuses again, Emperor Qingfeng will ask her to drink it again.

Zhou Zhengzheng thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the courtiers drink." He brought it over, and covered his mouth with his sleeve, but quickly poured it into his sleeve.

"I'm done." Zhou Zheng took the empty cup and showed it to Emperor Qingfeng.

Emperor Qingfeng nodded: "If you think it's delicious, I'll let someone make it next time." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhou Zhengzheng then found an excuse to leave.

In his heart, he was suspicious, what was going on with Emperor Qingfeng.

Walking aimlessly in the Imperial Garden, suddenly, I saw the red moon suddenly kneeling down.

"Miss Zhou, the slave has something important to tell you." Red Moon said.

Zhou Zhengzheng said: "You say. ”

"Zhou Yunluo asked Lin Feng to take the poison to the emperor, and the emperor came forward to harm the girl." Hongyue said, "Girl, be careful. ”

It turned out that this was the case, and Zhou Zhengzheng immediately figured out why Emperor Qingfeng would let her drink tea.

"Hongyue, go back, I don't have anything to reward you now, I'll let Armin give you what you deserve."

Hongyue said, "Thank you, Miss Zhou. Then he left through the back door.

Hongyue is capricious, this time she is willing to tell Zhou Zhengzheng, there must be Hongyue's own little abacus, Zhou Zhengzheng doesn't want to evaluate anything, but Hongyue said the news, Zhou Zhengzheng believes.

Although Hongyue betrayed her in her previous life, it was for the sake of profit, and in this life, Hongyue is Zhou Yunluo's slave, and she can still betray Zhou Yunluo for the sake of profit.

This is also the reason why Zhou Zheng let go of the red moon.

Leaving a slave who likes to sell her master for glory to the enemy, and then betraying the enemy after gaining the enemy's trust, so that the enemy can also taste the taste of betrayal, it is better to "make the best use of everything" than to kill her.
