There is a saying called "You have become the most hated appearance after all", I just don't want to change, I don't want to crush my personality to adapt to this changeable palace, and I don't want to become the heroine of the palace fighting drama, from simple and kind to scheming. But it remains the same, survival is a big problem, and passive prevention is not as good as the initiative of people with intentions.

I couldn't help but feel a little melancholy: "Zhu Di, am I too naïve?" ”

"A temporary peace is just an illusion, and one day it will be broken, how will you deal with it?" Zhu Di once again hit the nail on the head, to be precise, the hidden worry in my heart that I dare not touch.

I never thought that the situation would change, but as Zhu Di said, with Ah Ping holding on and Zhu Yuanzhang taking care of me, I will inevitably be lucky, and I feel that that day will not come. In the face of Zhu Di's questioning, the only thing I could respond to was: "I believe in Ah Ping, he will not let me fall into that situation." ”

"Trust?" Zhu Di laughed, shook his head and walked down the steps of the pavilion, and paused, "You will slowly understand how ridiculous this thing is, it's not too early, if you don't go back to the banquet, ask someone to accompany you back earlier." ”

Watching his figure disappear into the darkness, I can't help but feel annoyed by it, he is here to block me, he left a lot of specious words, and then patted his ass and left, leaving me alone here depressed. Anyway, why did Green Lotus go for so long and still haven't come back? I still haven't quenched my thirst with this dry mouth.

Thinking that I still have to go back to the banquet to have a look, I might as well walk over by myself. As soon as I stood up, I heard something strange coming from under the pavilion, which was very clear in this silence, and subconsciously shouted: "Who is it?" "Unexpectedly, it was okay if I didn't scream, but as soon as I called, I saw a dark shadow emerge from the flowers, and ran towards the light of the banquet, looking like a woman.

Suddenly, his heart sank, and he raised his voice to scold: "Stop! But the black shadow had no intention of stopping at all, and was about to run out of sight, and secretly said that it was not good, I was afraid that someone would follow me, and I had been hiding in the shadows, and then listened to all the conversations between me and Zhu Di, which was to report to her master.

The girl of the green lotus always drops the chain at a critical time, and when she needs to be used, people don't know where to go. It was obviously unrealistic to chase after me with my current body, and it was very difficult to even ask me to run, so I had to go back to the banquet.

But after walking a few steps, I heard an exclamation coming, which frightened my heart, and before I walked again, I was at the periphery of the banquet, and the light of the lanterns was very bright. At a glance, I saw Ah Ping and Zhu Gaoxu standing there side by side, and kneeling at their feet was a person dressed as a palace lady, judging from the silhouette of the figure, it should be the one who escaped just now.

Zhu Gaoxu's sharp eyes saw me first, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was stopped by my eyes, although he didn't know what he meant, he also closed his mouth.

And when Ah Ping raised his eyes as if he felt something, he saw that it was me and strode directly over, "Why don't you wait for me in the seat?" "I was a little angry, and I waited for him for a while, and I was embarrassed to ask why I didn't wait. I didn't bother to argue with him in front of people, so I just asked, "What about the green lotus?" ”

"She reported to me where you were and said you were going to have tea, so go find tea."

"...... "I'm speechless for that stupid girl in my house.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu was already looking at us with a shocked face, and he couldn't help but speak: "You...... You ......" but before the words came out, they were covered by the loud shouts of the palace lady on the ground: "Your Highness, the slave maid has something to tell, just now when the slave and maid passed by here, she saw the mother meeting the prince Yan privately in the pavilion, and her words and demeanor were too intimate, and it happened that the slave and maid did not dare to hide it in the slightest." ”

Human words.

As soon as I saw this palace maid sneakily hiding in the flowers and then burrowing out and escaping, I guessed that this would be the result.

Although Zhu Di and I did meet in the pavilion, he stood in front of the pavilion and stood next to the pavilion pillar, separated from me by a long distance, why did he talk and behave too intimately? was crowned by this palace maid as a private meeting with the king of Yan. This "hat" is not a trivial matter if you study it deeply, and it can even become a handle to my death.

I didn't look at Ah Ping's expression, I just stared at the palace maid, and asked lightly: "You said that I had a private meeting with King Yan in the pavilion, what evidence do you have?" Which palace are you, and why are you sneaking around here? ”

I'm sure it was impossible to hear my conversation with Zhu Di from the location where she was hiding at the time. But thinking back to just now, I suddenly realized that this might be Zhu Di's intention, intending to teach me a lesson.

He deliberately did not approach the pavilion, kept a certain distance from me, and even calculated the frequency and volume of his speech.

The palace maid was silent, only buried her head and prostrate there.

Suddenly, Ah Ping flashed in front of him, and Ah Ping actually dodged over and kicked Gong E on the ground, "What nonsense!" ”

Only then did I see Gong E's face, vaguely familiar, although it was not unforgettable, but what happened just now always had an impression, she was like a little palace maid beside the purple-clothed woman who Zhu Gaoxu said before.

"Hey, isn't this the one who tripped over the woman in purple who tripped over you?" Zhu Gaoxu's words confirmed my eyesight, but Ah Ping raised his head in surprise when he heard it and asked urgently: "What tripped?" Lan, did you fall? He lunged at me and looked me up and down, his eyes full of worry: "Are you okay?" Can it hurt? No, call the Imperial Doctor, go and call Old Man Jiang immediately! ”

I saw that he was so anxious that the whole person panicked, and hurriedly clarified the facts: "No, no, I didn't fall." Luckily, your cousin helped me up, and nothing happened to me, so I avoided the chaos and came to the pavilion here to be quiet for a while. ”

Hearing me say this, Ah Ping calmed down a little, but there was still anger in his eyes: "Where was the green lotus at that time?" ”

I was silent for a moment, not wanting to hide the truth: "Green Lotus was stopped by your mother's concubine's people, and I felt that my mouth was dry and I wanted to drink saliva before leaving the banquet." I heard Zhu Gaoxu deliberately ask in an incredible tone: "Oh my God, no one is willing to pour water for you?" Your popularity is too bad, isn't it? ”

glanced at him angrily, he was not popular. Observing Ah Ping's expression, there was a gloomy anger in his anger, and he obviously understood the situation I was facing before. But this is not the time to picket the past, let's solve the problem in front of me first, and the girl is still kneeling on the ground and trembling.

I saw Ah Ping raise his hand, pointed at Zhu Gaoxu and said, "You! Go and call the guards to come and press this slave and maid into my temple, and I will interrogate them properly. But Zhu Gaoxu didn't buy his account at all, and said with a smile: "Why, I'm not from this palace, and the guards won't listen to me." You are the emperor's grandson, so it is more appropriate for you to call it. ”

"No, Lan is here, I can't leave her here." Ah Ping refused without thinking about it.

Zhu Gaoxu said in a strange tone: "Oh, am I not a human, is this kneeling palace maid a ghost, what does it mean that she is the only one?" Ah Ping snorted lightly: "You are reckless and useless, this palace maid will soon become a ghost." ”

As soon as these words came out, the palace maid who was still trembling immediately knelt down at Ah Ping's feet and grabbed the hem of his robe and cried out: "Your Highness spare your life, what the slave and maid said is true, don't dare to deceive at all, Your Highness spare your life." She cried so hard that if it hadn't happened to me, it would have seemed strange and pitiful.

Ah Ping's eyes sank, and he kicked the person out again, and scolded in a cold tone: "You still dare to say that it is true?" Do you really think that Your Highness is merciful enough to allow you to slander indiscriminately? Come on, drag this down and beat her to death with a stick! ”

I can understand when I see this, the two brothers are deliberately scaring the little palace maid with one song and one song. This place is secluded, just like Ah Ping shouts, where can anyone hear the movement here.

But the little palace maid heard different, and her Taoism couldn't tell whether she was scaring her, and she only heard that she was going to be beaten to death by a stick, so she was so frightened that she couldn't have it, and shouted in horror: "The slave said, the slave said, the slave and the maid are in the palace of Concubine Li, Concubine Li doesn't want Concubine Lu to be dominant, and has been looking for her mistakes...... It is best to turn His Royal Highness and Concubine Lu against each other. ”

"And what good will she get?" Although I don't know who this Concubine Li is, I can also hear that it is another palace fighting drama, there are always pros and cons in everything before someone will do it, and no one will do thankless work.

Gong E didn't dare to snub me at this time, and said in a trembling voice: "Since the election of His Royal Highness's side concubine was issued, my mother-in-law has secretly let the porter enter the shortlist, and Miss Linglong on Concubine Lu's side is the big hit in this selection, so my mother-in-law is ......."

"So she wants to kill two birds with one stone, which not only moves me, but also makes my relationship with Concubine Lu more stiff." I coldly took the unfinished words she didn't finish, slowly raised my head, my eyes were fixed on Ah Ping's body, and the corners of my mouth half raised a mocking arc: "Side concubine? Selection? A Ping's eyes flashed with panic, "Lan, I'll go back and explain to you." ”

I shook my head lightly: "You just say whether this matter is right or not, and superfluous explanations are empty words." ”

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu spoke out fearing that the world would not be chaotic: "Don't ask, I've heard about this a long time ago, didn't you see that the ladies of the princes and nobles came to the birthday banquet today?" It's just to let our brother Wei have a good idea. ”

"Zhu Gaoxu, shut up for me!" Ah Ping glared at him angrily.
