Every winter, when the snow falls, there is always life drifting away. Looking at the yellow-clothed guard with a knife and a halberd in front of him, it seemed that a strong smell of blood gradually rippled in the air, bright red blood, and white snow would eventually stain the glorious Chuxiu Palace in Kuibi.

"Master, it's snowing again, let's go back earlier, maybe the princess and the fourth elder brother are already waiting in Jingren Palace." Xiao Ranzi opened the oil umbrella, looked at the guards walking by with a pale face, and said reluctantly. Huizhu tightened the cloak on her body, responded lightly, and without looking back, she picked up the stairs and walked into the snowy verandah.

The wind and snow were abused, and it was difficult to walk on the road, and it took a long time to return to Jingren Palace, and the clothes were soaked with frost and snow. Entering the palace, only a few palace people swept the snow in twos and threes, and when they saw Huizhu and his party coming back, they hurriedly stepped forward to say goodbye.

Huizhu's body was stiff and cold, she didn't pay attention to the strange appearance of the palace people, she responded casually, and directly entered the main hall without stopping, while lifting the curtain and entering the house, she said with a hot air: "The hand stove is not hot, the wind outside is blowing badly, the palace is so frozen, Su Xin first gave the palace a bowl of almond tea, to roll" Before he could say a word, he looked up, only to see Yinzhen leaning on the kang with his eyes closed, Xiao Luzi half-squatting to take off his shoes and socks, and there were three Gong'e who held a basin in his hand, held a cotton towel and served tea.

When Yinzhen heard the sound, he lifted his eyelids and glanced at it, and then shrugged down and said, "I'm back." The tiredness in the words, Huizhu's heart was sour, and she didn't know what she thought, so she waved her hand to Suxin to avoid hot tea, and then untied her cloak and walked to the front of the kang and said, "Come to the palace." ”

Xiao Luzi was stunned, and when he looked at it, he saw that there was a slight fluctuation between Yinzhen's eyebrows and eyes, and he turned his mind and gave Huizhu the work in his hand to take over, and personally found Fang Xiaoji to come over, and beat a group of palace people to retreat quietly.

Yinzhen's feet are very white and thin, and the turquoise meridians appear fresh on the instep; His toes are not pretty, and the thick joints are very conspicuous, but the toes are tightly closed. As the old saying goes, people with small gaps between their toes can keep their money and get by.

Thinking of this, Huizhu's hands were studied, recalling that on a summer afternoon this year, she had just woken up from a nap, and her body was wet with sweat and uncomfortable, so she casually asked: "The emperor joined the army when he was a teenager, and he also learned to be a good horse archer, why is it now in the middle of summer, but he doesn't go to Rehe to hunt in the summer?" Yin Zhen was silent for a while, and muttered: "Once Mulan Qiufu spent more than 100,000 taels of silver, my treasury didn't have that spare money. ”

Hundreds of thousands of taels? Her mouth opened wide, and she whispered after a while: "Rehe Palace is still good, and I have to let Hongli don't worry about Mulan's hunting majesty when I go back." Yin Zhen opened his eyes sharply, frowned and said: "Nonsense, women's opinion!" Hongli and other descendants of later generations should follow the imperial examination, practice martial arts Mulan, and don't forget the family law! How can you let Hongli not go to Mulan for autumn hunting. In this way, she was speechless at the moment.

Just thinking about it, Yinzhen asked coldly, "What do you think?" Huizhu knew Yinzhen's temperament, so he said: "Does the emperor stay here for dinner today?" It just so happened that Hongli and Bao'er also had to dine with their concubines. As he spoke, he took a cotton towel and wiped Yinzhen's feet.

Yin Zhen took a sip of Pu'er, exhaled comfortably, closed his eyes and raised his head and said, "I didn't know that you would knead your ankles, and in the future, you will be here, and you will serve it." As he spoke, he felt Huizhu's hand stiffen, lowered his head and smiled slightly: "You can rest assured, I will set up a meal in Jingren Palace tonight." After hearing this, Huizhu hurriedly wiped the water on her hands, got up and said, "The concubine went to summon someone into the house to serve first, so that she could change into plain clothes." After that, without waiting for Yinzhen to respond, he raised his voice and called Xiao Luzi in, turned around and walked into the bedroom behind the screen.

After a while, Huizhu went to her head and changed into her usual clothes, and saw Yinzhen holding a book in one hand but didn't look at it, but her eyes were staring at the red lacquer Xiaoji, and her right hand was also dipped in tea and wrote something on the table.

What's going on? The back of the right hand is red and swollen, and there are blisters? Huizhu looked surprised, three steps and two small steps ago, grabbed her right hand without thinking, glared and asked, "How did you get up?" What's going on in the hands of good life? Xiao Luzi They don't have a color, and they don't know that the burn is going to be medicated. He complained in his mouth, and he didn't forget to call: "Xiao Ranzi, go and take out the ointment in the box." ”

Xiao Ranzi had to respond, and Xiao Luzi, who was standing on the side, was busy stepping forward to explain, but when he saw Yinzhen sweeping over with a cold eye, he bowed down and said with a smile: "What Niangniang taught me is that the slave is clumsy, and he didn't notice that the Holy Body was injured. Huizhu was also in a hurry, and only then did he feel that it would inevitably damage Xiao Luzi's dignity, and he was busy looking at it, and saw that he was happy and had no sense of annoyance, so he carefully applied the ointment.

After smearing the medicine, Huizhu rushed to pack up the ointment box, and suddenly saw that there were undried water marks on the surface of the vermilion paint, which looked like two words, and the word in front of him could not be seen clearly, but the other word was "When I sighed in my heart, and then my heart was as cold as a stone, it was difficult to reach the parent-child Changlun."

Yin Zhen held back Huizhu's gaze, subconsciously moved the teacup to cover it, and then said in disguise: "The injury was probably burned in Chuxiu Palace, I didn't feel the pain, but I forgot it." Hearing this, Huizhu didn't know how to interface, so she responded lightly with a "grace", and moved to put the medicine box in person

For a while, the scene cooled down, and it was a loud report outside: "Princess Pauline has arrived!" The fourth brother has arrived! Huizhu was overjoyed when she heard the voice, she didn't care about Yinzhen's presence, she walked out of the inner hall with the ointment in her hand, and in a blink of an eye, she saw two red figures, one big and one small, rolling over, one with a slight throat, and one with a milky voice, all calling "Eniang" to run.

The mother and son frolicked enthusiastically in the outer hall for a while, and then returned to the inner hall after hearing that Su Xin had come to prepare dinner. Then the brother and sister knelt down to Yinzhen and asked for peace, Yinzhen held the shelf of Yan's father and lectured, and instructed Hongli to go to Jingling to pay tribute, and then moved to the warm pavilion for dinner.

After dinner, it was already the time to hold the lamp, Yinzhen drove away, and the mother and son talked around the warm kang. As he was talking, he suddenly felt a wave of cold air come in. Then he turned his head to look and saw Xiao Ranzi standing at the curtain with a panicked face. Huizhu knew that something was wrong, so she retreated, and asked the palace people to lead Baolian out, and said with a straight face: "What's the matter?" ”

Xiao Ranzi hurriedly walked to the mother and son, took out a palace signature from his sleeve, leaned over and said, "Master. Fourth elder brother, the slave sent the long-lived master away, and when he returned to Jingren Palace and ordered someone to close the palace door, he suddenly heard a very short knock on the door. At first, the slave thought it was the person of the Long Live Lord, and hurriedly reopened the palace door. But when I opened the door, I saw a vague figure running away from me. Later, I still looked down, only to see that this palace sign was resting on the palace threshold.

Huizhu took a look at the palace sign, and saw that the wood-yellow two-inch palace sign read, "Concubine Xi is personally enlightened, tonight is a change of day, and the cold palace will definitely be gained." After looking at it carefully for a while, Huizhu was puzzled, and directly put the palace sign in her hand into the brazier, looked at the palace sign that immediately crackled and burned, and shook her head; "I don't know who wrote it, or what purpose this man had, so it is better to ignore it as a precaution."

Hongli's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he explained from the side: "Eniang." Neither can you say that. Although I don't know what this person's purpose is, Leng Gong and his party, with the identity of Eniang, the third brother's mother and son, it is impossible for that person to deceive Eniang. So my son thinks he can go and see what is going on, maybe there will be a surprise. As he spoke, seeing that Huizhu looked disapproving, his eyes slipped, and he said in a final tone: "If E-niang doesn't go, don't let my son go to explore." After speaking, I felt so good, and I pestered Huizhu Yiyun vigorously.

Huizhu couldn't make a fuss, and he was afraid that Hongli Yang would violate the yin, saying that it was the fourth elder brother, but in fact he went to the cold palace, so he had to gouge out his eyes at Hongli and said with a flat face: "You honestly went back to Yuqing Palace, and this palace will go to the cold palace, if you let this palace meet you, you will be more careful!" Hongli touched his nose and honestly returned to Yuqing Palace.

After Hongli left, Huizhu saw that the pendulum clock had reached three o'clock, and he was still hesitant in his heart, but he was also hooked up with a trace of curiosity, and finally rubbed it for a quarter of an hour, and put on a stone blue hooded cloak, and wrapped himself tightly, before letting Xiao Ranzi take the lantern, and the master and servant hurriedly went to the cold palace.

The cold palace is located in the middle of nowhere, and the wind does not stop, and the more the master and servant go, the more panicked they become. Gradually to the direction of the cold palace, the narrow and secluded palace corridor did not even have a palace lamp, and could only rely on the faint halo of flickering light to imprint Lushi.

"Click-" A gust of wind howled, and the chains grinded loudly.

Xiao Ranzi's eyes suddenly lit up, raised the lantern and blew out the light, turned his head and said, "Master, did you hear the sound, it is estimated that it is the back porch of the cold palace." Huizhu was about to reprimand the matter of turning off the lights, but when she heard Xiao Ranzi say this, she had no choice but to give up and follow Xiao Ranzi step by step.

Walking into the back porch of the cold palace, the howling of the wind became more and more intense, and the sour and rotten smell between the noses became stronger.

Huizhu covered her mouth and nose, and looked at it through the subtle pouring moonlight, only to see that the cold palace was full of dead branches and leaves, dust was accumulated everywhere, and there were cobwebs all over the place, the original red palace wall was incomplete, and the painting building outside the eaves of the hall was also damaged due to the invasion of wind and snow.

Huizhu looked at it, secretly regretted in her heart, and was about to call Xiao Ranzi to leave, but in a flash, there was a temple hidden behind the dead branches, and the temple was burning with bright lights. So he took a deep breath, the master and servant looked at each other again, and tiptoed up the palace wall with courage, looking in through the ruined windows.

Before long, when Huizhu's eyes were used to the light and saw the situation in the hall clearly, she was so shocked that she covered her mouth and couldn't help but step back.

Wrong! There are people in the back, how can there be people in the back? As soon as this thought flashed, the man behind her circled her waist with one hand, and she fell backwards without reflexing, and instantly fell into a hard embrace. Huizhu had no ability to think in her mind, and she was about to scream out in her mouth, but she grabbed her wrist, turned around, and violently pressed her against the wall, and covered her lips with one hand, and lowered her voice and said, "Don't scream, it's me." ”
