Lie Shi was still standing in place with Zi'er in his arms, seeing Lie Yun limping back, and ignoring his few strands of hair that were being held and played with by Zi'er, he hurriedly stepped forward to ask Lie Yun what was wrong.

"When I was chasing that guy just now, I accidentally stumbled."

Coming out of the East Palace, with every step he took, Lie Yun felt like a needle was pricking his ankle, and he couldn't stand it anymore and sat down on the ground.

Lie Shi hurriedly put Zi'er down carefully, squatted beside Lie Yun, and gently probed the wound on Lie Yun's foot with his hand.

Touching the ankle, which was already swollen thicker than a calf, Lie Shi's brows furrowed.

Look around, the cloister on the side can also block the cold of the night. Lie Shi first carried Zi'er to the bottom of the porch, and then carried Lie Yun over.

"County Lord, this foot injury seems to be a bit serious, and my subordinates need to take off your shoes and socks to take a good look."

Lieyun nodded.

One foot was suddenly exposed to the icy cold night, and Lieyun couldn't help but shrink back, but he gasped in pain.

Lie Shi grabbed Lieyun's foot in his palm, and looked closely at the high, swollen red-glowing wound.

"County Lord, who is that person? Where did you go after him and hurt yourself? ”

Lieyun looked in the direction of the East Palace in the night, "That person looks like ......"

Suddenly, Blaze felt a small stream of heat blow from his ankles.

"Princess Zi'er, you ......"

Lieyun looked down and saw that Lieshi was staring at Zi'er with wide eyes, and Zi'er was squatting on the ground, round like a fluffy ball, one hand on Lieyun's lap, two small cheeks bulging, carefully blowing on Lieyun's injured ankle.

Hearing Lie Shi call herself, Zi'er raised her little face and smiled sweetly at Lie Shi, then lowered her head and continued to blow.

Looking at this little person, Lie Yun's eyes were full of smiles.

Reaching out and pulling Zi'er from the ground and hugging her into her arms, Lieyun picked up her fleshy little face and kissed her hard, "Thank you Zi'er for helping my sister Huhu, now my sister doesn't hurt anymore!" ”

Zi'er's eyes lit up suddenly, but she blushed instantly, and shyly plunged her head into Lieyun's arms.

Holding a small lump, Lie Yun sighed in his heart, hoping that this dirty and man-eating deep palace would not devour the purity that Zi'er was born with too early!

was stirred up by Zi'er, and Lie Shi also forgot that he was still asking Lie Yun who he chased and how he injured his foot, and only looked at the injury.

"Lie Shi, I can't go back to the banquet like this, what can you do?"

Looking at the sky, a few people have been staying outside for a long time, and if they don't go back, I'm afraid some people should be suspicious.

Lie Shi lightly touched the swollen place of Lie Yun's ankle with his finger, and frowned, "County Lord, this sprain should be due to the misalignment of the bones, and the subordinates can give you the bones first." It's just that even if you are right at this time, if you want to walk back to the Qianqing Palace, the pain is very tolerable......"

"It's okay," Lie Yun interrupted Lie Ten with his mouth, "Compared to the Nine Turns Soul Lock Needle, this pain is nothing. You do it. ”

Lie Shi pursed his lips, "Yes." ”

In the dark night, a crisp "click" sounded.

Looking at the petite and fair-skinned feet in his palm, he spasmed uncontrollably a few times behind his bones, Lie Shi bit his lower lip, but didn't say anything, silently helped Lie Yun put on his shoes and socks, helped him up from the porch, and gently pulled Zi'er out of Lie Yun's arms and hugged her.

Zi'er didn't pout and resist again this time, and obediently let Lie Shi hold her. 20

The three of them returned to the Qianqing Palace, and only Zhao Qiming and Queen Su were left on the royal platform.

Xiao Jinxiu saw that she couldn't lure Lieyun to change her clothes, and she was angry because Xiao Nianyuan did all the stupid things tonight, Lieyun just left the Qianqing Palace with her front foot, and she also took people back to Cining Palace with her back foot.

Xiao Nianyuan was still waiting for Xiao Jinxiu's aunt to call her to go back to Cining Palace to give herself a bunch of good things to get for herself as in previous years, but she only got Xiao Jinxiu's words after looking forward to it for a long time, "Yuan'er go down and sit with your grandmother, those clothes will go back to the mourning family and ask someone to send them to Bofu." ”

Feeling the schadenfreude and banter that the hall couldn't hide, the people of the Xiao family couldn't stay anymore no matter how thick-skinned they were.

Xiao Lin got up to confess, only saying that he was unwell, and implored Zhao Qiming to allow him to retire first.

Zhao Qiming didn't like the people of the Xiao family tonight, and he didn't even bother to say a word of comfort when he heard the words, so he just nodded perfunctorily.

Xiao Lin and Chang thanked them, hurriedly took Xiao Nianyuan's mother and daughter, and the family left the Qianqing Palace in disgrace.

And Concubine Liang's side, because the second princess was sleepy early, Concubine Liang was afraid that her daughter's crying would disturb the New Year's banquet of the monarch and ministers and provoke Zhao Qiming's anger, so she gave the queen Su's family, left the palace maid around her to wait for Zi'er in the Qianqing Palace, and took her little daughter back to the palace first.

When the old general and the old lady saw that the old man had returned safely, the expressions on their faces were relieved.

Cheng Xianzhong noticed that when Lie Yun took Zi'er from Lie Shi's arms and stepped onto the royal platform, his body shook almost invisibly with the naked eye.

Zhao Qiming and Empress Su had already heard from the palace maid who had come back earlier that a few people were out looking at the stars, and they were quite interested at this time, and asked about Lie Yun again.

Cheng Xianzhong looked at Lie Yun who was talking happily with Zhao Qiming and Su Shi on the stage, and then looked at Lie Shi who stood behind the old general and Mrs. Lie again, and saw Lie Shi looking at Lie Yun's feet from time to time, and the anxious color in his eyes became thicker and thicker with the passage of time, and his eyebrows couldn't help frowning.

On the royal platform, Zhao Qiming and Su Shi asked, Lie Yun replied, Zi'er also listened with a pair of big eyes at first, and from time to time she stretched out her hand and gestured a few times. But in the end, he was young and frail, and his upper and lower eyelids slowly began to fight.

Lie Yun looked at Zi'er's sleepy little appearance and was really distressed, and was about to find an excuse to let the palace maid send Zi'er back to the palace, and the queen Su on the side finally found out that the eldest princess of Daxuan's generation was about to fall asleep in Lieyun's arms, so she hurriedly told Zhao Qiming and told the palace maid next to Concubine Liang to take Zi'er back to Concubine Liang's palace to rest.

Except for Xiao Nianyuan's girl, everything went smoothly at tonight's banquet, and the monarchs and ministers were happy.

Seeing that the hour was not early, Zhao Qiming ordered the banquet to disperse, and left with Queen Su in the cheers of the civil and military officials kneeling on the ground.

Lie Yun also got up, and while walking under the imperial platform, he beckoned Lie Shi to take a cloak to put on, and walked out of the Qianqing Palace with the ministers with his wife and children with the old general and the old lady Lie.

Cheng Xianzhong kept looking at Lie Yun, and at this time he also left the desk and stayed behind several people.

After leaving the palace gate and getting into the carriage, Lie Yun stretched out his hand to take off his cloak, but he couldn't hold it anymore, and fell into the arms of the old lady Lie.

Old Madam Lie stretched out her hand to wrap her hand around Lie Yun, but she touched a cold hand, and turned her head to look, only to see that Lie Yun's entire back was soaked.

"Yun'er, what's wrong with you?" Looking at Lie Yun's face, which became pale as snow in an instant, Old Madam Lie was a little trembling when she spoke, could it be that Xiao Jinxiu and Zhao Qiming were so desperate that they wanted to kill Yun'er in the palace?

Lie Shi took out a cloth towel to wipe away the cold sweat from Lie Yun's forehead, "Old lady, this matter is a long story, the county lord's ankle is sprained, it is important to go back to the house first to treat the injury for the county lord." ”

The old lady nodded, endured the worry in her heart, opened the curtain and was about to tell the old general to hurry back to the house, but she heard Cheng Xianzhong's voice outside the car.

"Old General Lie, Mrs. Lie, Yun'er, is she okay?"

I only heard the old general Lie snort coldly, "Yun'er doesn't bother with the town and the country, the hour is not early, the old man took his family to take the first step and leave." ”

As soon as the old general gave the order, the guards of the Lie family left the Forbidden City with the same carriage as when they came, embracing the carriage that the old lady and Lie Yun were riding, and leaving the Forbidden City with uniform steps.

Lie Yun snuggled in the arms of the old lady Lie, and through the gap in the curtain of the carriage, he looked at Cheng Xianzhong's tall but somewhat rickety figure, getting farther and farther away from the carriage, slowly blurring, and finally disappearing into the boundless dark night.

No one was paying attention, and a pair of shining eyes were hiding in the carriage of the Cui family, seeing all this in their eyes.
