"Princess," Qing'er stumbled into the door, looking frightened, and said, "Princess, the slave maid heard that Ruolan was captured by Concubine Yue!" ”

"What did you say?" He Xuan immediately put down the fan in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and asked in a loud voice, "Why did she arrest Ruolan?" ”

"The slave maid heard from the subordinates that about half an hour ago, Concubine Yue sent someone to arrest Ruolan privately." Qing'er looked frightened and said worriedly, "Madame personally cooked glutinous rice balls at that time, and Concubine Yue's people had His Majesty's token and quietly took people away. When Madame found out, she wanted to send someone to inform the princess, but she didn't know that the princess had gone to the league mansion, so she had to wait for the princess to come back. ”

He Xuan's eyes were a little frozen when he looked at Qing'er, as if he was thinking about countermeasures.

"Xuan'er!" Mrs. Cai was still wearing an apron and a little flour on her hands, and hurriedly walked to the side hall of Hexuan, and said, "Ruolan was taken away by the people in the Moon Concubine Palace, and it was too late for the mother to know. What should I do now? ”

Mrs. Cai knew that He Xuan valued Ruolan very much, and as the owner of Zhaohua Palace and the mother who loved He Xuan, she was ashamed.

"Don't blame the mother. Yu had to accept the birth sacrifice every few days, and the mage brought by the concubine of the moon divined a suitable candidate, and the concubine sent someone to tie him up and arrest him. For the convenience of the concubine, the father and the emperor gave a special token, even if the mother concubine was present, it could not be stopped. The lives of these slaves in the palace have always been cheap, and the concubines just feel a little bloody, but they don't care. He Xuan comforted his mother, Mrs. Cai, while looking thoughtful.

She never thought that Concubine Yue's hand would reach her side. How can she save Ruolan?

It happened so suddenly that there was no room for much thought. If you don't rush to Ningxiang Palace, there will be no one to save if you want to save it.

"Mother, Ruolan is very important to the child, if the child does not go to the Ningxiang Palace in person, it will be difficult to face himself in the future." As he spoke, he got up and saluted his mother, Mrs. Cai.

Mrs. Cai took Hexuan's jade hand, got up and said, "Mother concubine go with you, after all, the mother concubine has more seniority in the harem than Concubine Yue, she will always sell me three points of face." ”

He Xuan shook his head and said, "Don't go, concubine." Concubine Yue is in the limelight, and if the mother concubine goes to ask for someone, she will be regarded as a harem concubine and jealous. The father allowed the concubine to catch the palace people to sacrifice, but the mother concubine did not take advantage of it, but let people grab the handle and fall behind. ”

Mrs. Cai understood the meaning of Hexuan's words, and her eyes were a little sad. As a mother, she can't protect her children from harm, and this kind of feeling, Hexuan, who was a mother in her previous life, can naturally understand.

She smiled and said, "It's better to let the child go by herself, the child is just a princess, and she has nothing to do with Concubine Yue." If Concubine Yue bullies me, a child, will my father sit idly by? ”

Mrs. Cai felt that what He Xuan said made some sense, so she instructed: "Xuan'er, the mother knows that you are a kind and good child. You go, but, don't conflict with Concubine Yue, and protect yourself. ”

He Xuan looked at the concubine, her eyes were a little moist, and she said with a childlike smile: "Don't worry, the child is the princess of Da Zhou, and no matter how arrogant the concubine is, she won't dare to do anything to me." ”

"I hope so." Mrs. Cai patted Hexuan's hand, smiled helplessly, and then slowly let go of her hand.

He Xuan knew that the concubine was worried, but she was imperative. Blinked, He Xuan held back his tears, and walked quickly towards the palace gate of Zhaohua Palace.

Qing'er had seen the birth sacrifice, and she was very scared, but when she thought of Ruolan, who was like a sister, she gritted her teeth and caught up with Hexuan's pace.

For Bi Yue, He Xuan didn't have a good impression in his heart.

This woman is young, charming, arrogant and lascivious, sophisticated, cruel, and disregards human life like a mustard.

Suddenly, she stopped, and a thought flashed through her mind, should you invite Empress Zhao to Ningxiang Palace to ask for someone? Empress Zhao is the lord of the harem, and her orders, the concubine does not dare to disobey. And this frivolous favorite concubine, doesn't Empress Zhao want to find an opportunity to repair it?

After thinking about it, the birth sacrifice of the divine beast was approved by his father, and Empress Zhao did not dare to discuss it. Moreover, with Hexuan's understanding, even if Empress Zhao made a move, he was making a yin move behind his back, and one move was fatal.

He Xuan sighed softly, and sped up the pace of going to the Ning Xiang Palace.

Walking to the gate of Ningxiang Palace, several guards recognized He Xuan and hurriedly saluted.

The last time I came to Ningxiang Palace, He Xuan was in a nervous mood, and in order to ask for the rose shortbread, he waited at the door for the eunuch to pass it on.

This time, He Xuan thought of Bi Yue's arrogance, and his anger was even greater, and he walked straight to the Ning Xiang Palace.

There were slaves who tried to kneel on the ground to block the way of Hexuan, or she dodged them, or she pushed them away.

In fact, she doesn't have such an impulse, but she can amplify her emotions with that little bit of anger, and she wants to put pressure on Bi Yue in terms of momentum, which is part of her countermeasures.

Since she had been to Ningxiang Palace, she walked towards the main hall, and said in a loud voice as she walked: "Why don't you go to pass the news that Concubine Yue has come to see this princess?" ”

It is a condescending attitude to say this. One by one, the slaves were frightened and fell to their knees and trembled.

He Xuan walked to the seat of His Royal Highness and sat upright, without a trace of expression on his face.

"Oh, such a big movement disturbed the dinner in the palace, and the palace thought it was a wild cat that jumped out of nowhere, but it turned out to be the second princess!"

After a while, a plump young woman with beaded hair and a plump figure walked out from behind the curtain with her waist twisted.

He Xuan heard the malice implied in Bi Yue's yin and yang weirdness, and only said lightly: "Concubine Yue said it was funny." This princess just wants to get back her personal maid Ruolan. ”

Bi Yue was on the main seat, her fingers gently flicked the shawl, and she squinted at He Xuan and said, "Who is Ruolan?" Princess Hexuan is really interesting, I lost a palace maid and found this palace here. ”

He Xuan was a little anxious, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly asked: "Isn't it the people under Concubine Yue who came to Zhaohua Palace to arrest Ruolan this afternoon and said that they would take it to sacrifice it?" ”

"Princess Hexuan said that the palace people who sacrificed to the divine beast? These things are all handed over to the people below to do, where can I use this palace to bother with it personally! With a smug smile on her face, Bi Yue said to the palace maid beside her, "Go and ask if you have caught a palace maid named Ruolan." ”

He Xuan's hand clenched the inside of his sleeve tightly, clenching his back molars to maintain the calm on his face.

After a while, the palace maid walked up to Bi Yue and whispered a few words, Bi Yue lowered her eyes and nodded slightly.

She turned her head, smiled awkwardly at He Xuan, and said, "Princess Hexuan, it seems that a palace maid named Ruolan was arrested, but that was calculated by the mage, and the sacrifice of divine beasts was also approved by His Majesty a long time ago." ”

When He Xuan heard Bi Yue say this, he said: "Please also ask Concubine Yue to raise her noble hand and let Ruolan go." Ruolan served very dedicatedly, and the princess had a deep relationship with her master and servant. ”

Bi Yue squinted her eyes and stared at Hexuan, repeating: "Serve very dedicatedly? Bi Yue helped the nephrite jade on the step, and said, "Hehe, it is her glory to be dedicated to the divine beast, and the princess should be happy for her!" ”

He Xuan saw that Bi Yue did not have the slightest sincerity, so he accentuated his tone and said: "Concubine Yue really doesn't let Ruolan go? ”

"There is nothing this palace can do." Bi Yue replied with a smile, her tone was so contemptuous.

"Okay, please retreat from the left and right, and have a few words to say privately with Xuan." He Xuan's deep eyes looked at the plate of snacks on the table, stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup on the table, and slowly drank the tea, waiting for Bi Yue's response casually.

Bi Yue's eyes hesitated, and she squinted at the palace maid beside her, and everyone retreated with the palace maid, and only Bi Yue, He Xuan, and Qing'er were left in the main hall.

"If you have anything to say, you can say it." Bi Yue leaned lazily on the soft pillow, one hand gently shaking the jade handle embroidered fan.

He Xuan gritted his teeth and said: "Ruolan and I have a deep friendship, please let Ruolan go for the sake of He Xuan's face!" ”

"Do you want me to let Ruolan go? What did the princess get in exchange? I saw that the little girl behind the princess looked quite smart, hehe. Bi Yue hid her face and chuckled a few times, which frightened Qing'er's face to turn pale and her body trembled.

He Xuan knew that Bi Yue didn't take her seriously, and said coldly: "The people around He Xuan don't worry about Concubine Yue." ”

Bi Yue's face became slightly gloomy when she heard Hexuan's tone. Both men were silent, and the scene was eerily quiet for a while.

He Xuan pondered for a moment, and said faintly: "That day, Empress Zhao had a banquet, and the prince said that the moon was ruyi, and later, I sent someone to investigate." ”

The fan in Bi Yue's hand slid down his fingers and fell on his legs, his cheek muscles trembled slightly, and he said, "What did you find?" ”

The corners of Hexuan's mouth were full of meaningful smiles, and he looked at the teacup in his hand and said, "What can be found, Niangniang knows it in her heart." As long as you let Ruolan go, I will act as if I don't know anything. ”

"Impossible, obviously... Bi Yue showed a fierce look on her face, realizing that she had missed her own words, and hurriedly stopped.

He Xuan sneered in his heart, dragged out his tone, and said, "Concubine Yue, are you sure?" For the sake of a little palace maid, would you like to gamble your life with this princess? ”

Bi Yue looked at He Xuan with cold eyes, her teeth clenched, and she wanted to eat He Xuan alive.

However, soon, Bi Yue's face was replaced by a smiling face, and said: "Princess Hexuan really likes to laugh at a young age, Ruolan is in Ningxiang Palace, you can take it away." ”

As she spoke, Bi Yue clapped her hands, and the palace maid in charge walked to Bi Yue's side obediently, only to see her whisper a few words to the palace maid, and the person hurriedly went down.

"The princess is really a good method, Bi Yue has been taught." Bi Yue's yin and yang are weird, on the surface, she is praising and proclaiming, but she is actually satirizing her.

He Xuan didn't care, smiled lightly, and said, "Each other." Then he couldn't help but add, and said: "He Xuan has no intention of being an enemy of Concubine Yue, it's just Ruolan, this princess is used to it." ”

Bi Yue's face was gloomy and coquettish, her chest was undulating, and her lips trembled slightly.

He Xuan's hands clutching his sleeves were already soaked with sweat, and his nerves tensed up waiting for what Bi Yue was going to say.
