Huayin Palace...

"Princess, the weather is fine today, do you want the slave to go out for a walk with you?"

"Going again?" I squinted at Taoxin, who was waiting on the side in a cold sweat, holding the real knife that was finally stolen from Shen Xiao...

The left is chopped, and the flowers, grasses, fish and insects are in chaos.

slashed on the right, and the palace eunuch fled.

"What the hell!" I threw the knife that I had managed to get my hands on the ground, looked at Taoxin pitifully and said, "Is my kung fu so bad?" ”

After saying that, Momo didn't think about it and nodded immediately... Then he shook his head and sneered, "Princess, I've been practicing this knife for a while, why don't you rest?" Just the slave went to make a pot of tea, and by the way, took some snacks? ”

"No need," I raised my hand to wipe the beads of sweat on my head after exercising, and happened to look at Mokoshin looking at me with a snorting look, so I laughed, "What's wrong with you?" Did you think of Xiao Qinglang? Or do you want to go to the hut? ”

The words that did not shy away from me, Taoxin's face was red, his face was red, his face was red, his face was scorned, he stomped his feet with a twisted expression, and he bit his lip and said, "Princess, the slave is serious, and the whole palace knows that the emperor ordered His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to lead the troops to Fengcheng yesterday." ”

What the? Led by the prince's brother?

Is it my lazy prince brother? The naïve king who spent all his days eating and waiting for death by the side of the crown princess and sister-in-law in addition to the previous dynasty?

How can it be?

I seemed to have heard a big joke, pinched the pink goose egg face of the peach heart, and laughed, "You girl is getting better at telling jokes, but this kind of joke can't be said nonsense in the future, otherwise with the speed of transmission in the palace, I won't be able to protect you at that time." ”

Seeing that I didn't believe it, Taoxin was a little confused, and thought about it left and right for a while, and she herself was a little confused.

I smiled helplessly, and paced to the door to pick up the knife that had been thrown aside, but suddenly saw my father walking towards my Huayin Hall with his hands behind his back, followed by a group of palace people.

"Not good!" Alert to something wrong, I waved my hand violently at Momoxin.

You know, if my father finds out that I am secretly practicing martial arts at this time, I am afraid that he will have to lock me up in a small black room again.

Taoxin only saw that something was wrong with me, and only woke up after the little eunuch outside the house shouted at the throat, and quickly ripped off the cloak on his body, and ran towards me in a hurry, and fell to his knees with a plop, covering the knife lying on the ground by the way.

"What's going on?"

Just when I let out a long breath of relief and felt relieved, my father's voice suddenly came from above my head.

Raising his eyes, my father was looking at me and Taoxin with curiosity, the strange picture of standing straight and kneeling.

"How... What's going on? I laughed dryly, looked at Taoxin, who was lying on the ground motionless and didn't dare to move, and hurriedly grabbed my father's arm and pulled him inside.

"Father came to Su'er today, but is there something?"

"Can't you come if you're fine?" My father glanced at me with squinted eyes, and then walked to the desk and sat down, "You little girl, don't think I don't know what the hell you're doing, say... Was that girl covering for you just now? ”

"Where?" I had a face thicker than the city walls, and I didn't admit it, "Me and Mokoshin are just playing games." ”

"Oh? What kind of game? The little palace maid respectfully offered a cup of tea, and my father took a sip and looked at me with a very expectant look.

I was stunned, my little brain was running fast, and then I casually said a name, "This game is called, who is the wooden man." ”

"Just love to talk nonsense." My father smiled, looked at me with great doting, and said with infinite sadness for a while, "My little princess, I am already eighteen years old in a blink of an eye, and my father is also old." ”

Sensing that there was something in his words, before I could ask, my father had already retired from the palace people, and sighed faintly at me, "Su'er, have you heard about Jiang Shangshu?" ”

The Shangshu who was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason and was going to be exterminated by the Nine Clans? Jiang's father?

I raised my eyebrows, looked at my father's slightly vicissitudes of life and nodded.

Father continued, "Jiang Shangshu is Jiang Qi's father, and now that I have sentenced Jiang Shangshu to exterminate the Nine Clans, Jiang Qi will naturally be implicated, but although Jiang Qi has not been in and out of the palace for a long time, after all, she is also a husband and wife with me, and she is not very old, although I can't let Jiang Qi be buried with her." ”

"Father, what do you want to say?" From my father's gentle face, I could already roughly guess his purpose.

Sure enough, my father breathed a sigh of relief, looked at me fixedly, and said, "Su'er, after thinking about it, I'm afraid this matter is only appropriate for you to do." ”

"Father is saying..."

"Send Jiang Qi out of the palace, I will issue a warrant for you to go to Nanxie Temple to pray for the blessing of the two imperial sisters who are married to Wu Guo, and you will take the opportunity to send her away."

Is this true? I saw that my father's face was righteous and righteous, very serious and not at all like a joke, so I couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Father, I don't care, but are you sure you do this?" The ministers in the court are not stupid, especially Mrs. Jiang, who is both Jiang Shangshu's daughter and in her father's harem, I don't know how much to stare at her eyes at this time, this may make the ministers suspicious, my father thinks twice! ”

"I have my own way of this." The father seemed reluctant to say more, but he just groaned, then flicked his sleeves, got up and said, "I still have government affairs to deal with, so this matter is settled." ”

After that, my father left my Huayin Hall without returning, but I was left dumbfounded.

What is this situation? My father's battle was a bit of a disagreement with me or not, he just came to tell me.

My head was still foggy, but suddenly there was a commotion outside, and then a man broke in and fell on one knee in front of me.

"Wechen see Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Oops, it's Shen Xiao.

I raised my eyelids and saw that Shen Xiao, who was dressed in military uniform, was staring at me intently, and given that I had secretly taken his saber, I looked extremely weak at this time.

"Uh... Shen Xiao, you come... What to do? Still dressed like this? I smiled stupidly, looking at the sky very unnaturally, thinking that if he asked where the knife was, then I would play stupid, and I would not return it to him anyway.

But to my surprise, Shen Xiao didn't mention anything about the saber, but was silent for a moment, with a trace of inexplicable emotion floating in his deep eyes, and waved his hand at me and said, "I'm here to bid you farewell." ”

His tone was light, and the words were clear but very harsh in my ears.

I pinched the corner of my skirt and looked at him in disbelief, "What did you just say?" What are you here for? ”

Resignation? Just because I took him with a saber?

Shen Xiao raised his eyes, looked at me deeply, and then bowed his head with a heavy face and said, "I have been ordered by the emperor to go to Fengcheng with His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

"Where did you say you were going?" I almost suspected that there was something wrong with my ears, and asked again with a trembling voice, but Shen Xiao did not answer.

But I couldn't hold it back at first, and I was about to walk out with my leg raised.

"Where are you going?"

"I'll go to my father and ask for clarification."

"Don't go." Shen Xiao grabbed my hand in a hurry.

And I wanted to go to my father to ask for an understanding, but unexpectedly, I felt dizzy on the top of my head for no reason, and I stumbled under my feet and almost fell, but fortunately I leaned into a strong arm in time.

When I looked up, I saw Shen Xiao's deep eyes mixed with a helpless smile, like the sunshine outside the window in winter, warm but extremely lonely.

After a long time, his sexy thin lips lifted lightly, as if to comfort me, and took me into his increasingly firm chest, and said softly, "Don't worry, but in Fengcheng, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and I will come back safely." ”

"But..."

I was about to say something, but Shen Xiao interrupted me, the slender fingers stroked my hair, and comforted me in a low voice, "It's okay, I will protect myself, not to mention... This time I went to Fengcheng voluntarily, and I went to the battlefield... Bloody battle... I want to avenge the dead souls of the Shen Mansion. ”

I don't know if my face was stuck on his hard armor or what, at this time, I only felt an inexplicable emotion in my heart swelling more and more, and then the tip of my nose was sour, and tears ran out disobediently.

Not to mention that although the prince's brother is lazy, he has already fought on the battlefield with the second emperor uncle at the age of sixteen, in contrast, Shen Xiaokong has a passion but has no experience in fighting, and Wu Bing is very dangerous to go to Fengcheng, didn't his father arrange him to die?

Unable to suppress the tremor of his shoulders, Shen Xiao noticed something unusual, and after letting go of me, he probably found that the person in his arms was crying, so he hurriedly wiped the teardrops from the corners of his eyes for me, patted my back with distress in his eyes, and said softly, "Don't cry." ”

I looked up, and when my tears were hazy, I saw the expression on Shen Xiao's face that was so gentle that it could drip water, only to realize that the air between us seemed too delicate.

What makes people even more puzzling is that the person in front of me is obviously Shen Xiao, but in a trance, I suddenly remembered Yin Linxi, and the kiss of Yongtai Palace.

This made my face suddenly heat up and I stepped back a few feet.

Shen Xiao was stunned for a moment, then hooked the corners of his mouth and raised a warm smile, waved his hand at me and said, "Then Shen Xiao will retire first, princess, take care!" ”。

Seeing him leave, I didn't stop him immediately, but didn't remember anything until he left the Huayin Palace, and hurried out the door.

"Ah Xiao!"

I stood at the door of the Huayin Palace, watching Shen Xiao's back pass through the harsh winter sun, and I was stunned for a moment at the moment when I called out to stop him, and then turned my head... There was a faint smile on that peerless face, which was in stark contrast to the depressed palace.

Finally, I waved at him and whispered, "Be safe." ”

Shen Xiao was silent for a while, then a bright smile melted into a bright smile on his beautiful face, and he replied to me with a heavy nasal voice.

Then, on the same day that the prince's brother and Shen Xiao set out on the expedition, I secretly sent the Jiang family to the border city of Haozhou under a royal decree forced by my father, under the pretext of being ordered to go to Nanxie Temple to pray for blessings.

And the Jiang family, who has experienced the destruction of his family and the tragic death of his parents, is no longer the eight-sided exquisiteness when they first met, but the road is surprisingly quiet, and he has been stunned for dozens of miles without saying a word.

The appearance of losing his soul is distressing.

But after all, her father was a sinner who collaborated with the enemy and treason, and I had no mercy for what happened to her, and it was only after seeing the suffocating face buried in my hair that I felt a little compassion.

"I have some silver here, although it is not much, but it is enough for you to make a living as a woman, so take it well."

I took out the purse and handed it to her.

Jiang still couldn't come back to his senses, a small face had already lost a lot of weight after only two days, and the big eyes that were originally bright and bright had become deep sockets, and his eyes were blank.

I sighed, knowing that she would not be able to listen to anything at this time, but it seemed that there was much to say to her.

After a while, she sat without moving, and I simply didn't bother her at all, but just stuffed the money bag into Jiang's hand, sighed and said a few words to the little girl, and finally got into the carriage on the return journey with Taoxin.

"Princess, then the Jiang family will let her fend for herself?"

In the carriage, Peach Heart blinked like a child, her eyes widened, and she was aggrieved when I learned from the eldest sister and gave her a violent blow on her forehead.

"You girl, you just have one less doorkeeper on your mouth, I can tell you, you are not allowed to tell anyone about this matter, and if anyone asks, you will always say that you don't know."

"Got it."

Momoxin touched her nose pitifully, and hid to the side in silence.

Lifting the curtain of the carriage, I stared up at the small square sky blankly, and my heart suddenly tightened as if I had been shackled, and I was a little breathless.

At the same time, I didn't know that such a terrible scene was happening behind me...

It's so terrible that it's someone's lifelong nightmare.
