Chapter 33: Revealing His Background
"Affectionate, ruthless, affectionate, ruthless......" The huge and spacious Lingxiu Palace, with expressionless palace maids in all corners, muttered from the room in the hall, and she leaned down on the side of the bed in the boudoir, pouting and picking a petal of roses in her hand......
"Ruthless ......" There were more than ten petal branches on the ground, and the eleventh rose in her hand was only the last petal, and her eyes were stunned.
"After all, it's still ruthless......" Li Kai looked at the remnants of flowers everywhere, and his eyes turned red, too, the flowers will wither, how can people not change!
"Knock Knock"
"Who! I don't care about you! Leave me alone! Li Kai picked up the pillow on the bed and threw it over, then pulled up the futon and covered his head.
"Princess, I'm talking to the guards and asking to see you." The palace maid standing outside the door suppressed a trembling voice and said in a smooth and gentle tone.
"No, no, no, no!" Li Kai, who was covered in the quilt, did not whisper at all because of the bedding.
"Yes...... Be! The palace maid hurried to the main hall to reply.
"Guard, princess...... She is not in good health and is not convenient to meet her for the time being. The palace maid bowed her head and retreated to the corner.
Poor health? Yesterday was still alive, but today is not well?
But......
When he was patrolling Lingxiu Palace last night, he saw Li Kai alone in the corridor from a distance leaning on the railing and sighing, just when he wanted to go up, she entered the house, could it be that the cold wind blew last night and caught a cold?
"Is the princess sick?" Ping Chat asked the palace maid who had just spoken.
She looked up, her expression embarrassed, stumbling.
"Okay then." Ping Tan glanced in the direction of the room, turned around and walked towards the palace door.
"Wait."
The voice came from behind, and he turned his head to look, only to see Li Kai push open the door and probe over.
"Huh? Princess. ”
Her eyes were red, and her round white face did not show a trace of joy, but looked a little haggard.
Li opened the door and walked up to him. "Come with me for a walk!"
The two of them came to the palace garden, and along the way, she always walked in front and enjoyed the respectful salute of people coming and going, while he could only follow behind as a guardian.
Li Kai was sullen and silent all the way. She went around the flat gravel path to the center of the garden, and when winter came, the plum blossoms bloomed more and more luxuriantly, but for the dawn at this time, they were just flowers that were about to wither!
She bit her thin lips and broke off a small branch from the tree, broke it into two knots with both hands, and whipped the plum blossoms on the tree vigorously.
Ping Chat blinked in surprise, is this still a gentle and romantic princess?
Thinking that Li Ge ignored her, thinking that Li Ge changed his face and threw her down, and thinking that Li Ge hurriedly took Su Geling's hand and ran out of Xuanmin's palace...... Li Kai's eyebrows furrowed, and the thoughts he said were all lies......
She angrily swung the branch to the tree, and her fingers were stabbed by the small thorns on the branches.
"Why are you so careless?" Ping Chat subconsciously took her hand in the palm of his hand, he seriously glanced at the wound that was spilling blood droplets, and then put away his anxious eyes and looked at her with a reproachful look.
"If you want to take care of it, I'll kill it, anyway, Gege won't feel distressed." She pursed her lips, her eyes moistening and reddening.
Ping's face sank.
"Li Ge, Li Ge, do you only have Li Ge in your eyes?" In annoyance, he snatched the branch from her other hand and threw it to the ground, grabbing her hand tightly.
"What are you doing? It hurts! He ignored her words completely, and with a single effort in his hand, he grasped it tighter.
Li Ke's eyes were already red, and when he made it like this, tears overflowed from his eyes.
Seeing the painful look on her face, a trace of distress flashed through Pingchat's eyes, but he didn't let go of her, but pushed her to the corner of the flowers.
"What are you doing! Talk about you, you hurt me! It really hurts! She lowered her head pitifully, and let go of her hand with some guilt.
There are very few people in the imperial garden before nightfall, except for those palace maids who take a bath and make tea for picking flower petals, but it is estimated that even the patrolling generals are too lazy to walk around this deserted garden this winter, let alone this slightly dark corner.
"Pingchat, you're crazy, I'm your master, how can you treat me like this." She scolded him angrily, pinning her face to the side angrily.
"yes, I'm crazy." The corners of his mouth grinned colder than his grim face, and his eyes glanced at himself, and the smile seemed a little sarcastic.
Li Kai was shivering by the wind.
"You're going to go crazy yourself, I'm unlucky enough, I don't want to listen to your nagging, I'm going back." She was about to step away, but he suddenly grabbed her from behind.
Li Kai's body retreated by inertia and lay directly in his arms.
"You're crazy! Let me go! ”
She struggled angrily.
"I'm crazy! Lose your marbles! How can I fall in love with you if I'm not crazy, Ouyang Tian, I've been by your side for so long, don't you feel it at all? ”
Li Kai's expression was stunned......
She had completely forgotten how she had met him, except for the occasional depressed mood and confiding in him, except for the occasional depressed mood, he was always cold, and she thought that he was only loyal to her.
He pulled her shoulders behind his back, and Li Kai, who turned around, had a puzzled look on his face.
"Ouyang Tian, if I have another chance, I will definitely not give up the opportunity to charge, and I can also become a hero in your heart." As if he had mustered up the courage to say this, his serious face flushed with shame.
At that time, Chu Tianguo screened out a hundred outstanding generals in the imperial city military camp, and trained three elite soldiers to assist the first emperor in battle, one is the current His Majesty Li Ge, and the other is the deceased Xu Gao, and he is also one of them.
And in the days of hard training in the military camp, he broke his leg and rested for a few days, and Li Ge had a good relationship with him, he once went out of the palace with him and returned to the general's mansion, and before he entered the door, he saw a girl squatting in the threshold, as soon as she saw Li Ge, she threw herself into his arms and rubbed her face against his arm.
A special curly hair hangs down on both shoulders, thick eyebrows, big eyes show a small nose, pouting as if the whole sky is about to melt, and the pink dress flutters and dances with the footsteps...... He was fascinated by it......
Returned to the barracks due to a leg injury missed the opportunity to go out with the first emperor, which made him frustrated and suddenly hit back the original small soldier appearance in the barracks, after half a year, Li Ge won the appreciation of the first emperor to participate in the government, Li Ge is not as cold-blooded as it seems, I heard that the backyard of the palace lacks a guard with both ability and integrity, he remembered the old love and introduced the declining and unknown flat chat to the first emperor, and successfully became the backyard general.
After Li Geden was the queen of God, he was afraid that he was not around, and Li Kai's life experience was in danger, so he ordered him to become the guard of Lingxiu Palace, and Li Kai was on call to protect him.
"I don't know what you're talking about, charging into battle and killing enemies is Gege's forte, you ......" she glanced at him contemptuously. Forget it. ”
“……”
"Ouyang Tian, can you not mention him? He doesn't even look at you now, but you are bored with wishful thinking all day long, are you stupid? Can you be sober, your Li Ge, he, doesn't want you anymore. ”
His eyes were serious and slightly wrinkled, and he sighed impatiently.
“……”
Li Kai wanted to speak and stopped, she wanted to explain that Gege cared about her, but he ignored her in the scene of Xuanmin Palace, her heart hurt when she thought about it, and this time, she was trained to be powerless to refute......
"Don't call me Ouyang Tian! You...... You know what, Ge Ge loves me, he ...... He may just be inconvenient for him...... He must have been bewitched by Sugering's murderous woman! Gege wouldn't have been like this before......" She looked away, and her originally empty expression immediately turned to resentment.
She turned her head, and her eyes instantly glowed. "That's right, on the night of the Xiangkey Kingdom, it must have been Su Geling who sneaked into Gege's room...... After the song, he was indifferent to me! Hum! It's a lie to say that assassins have infiltrated early in the morning! ”
Li Kai suddenly became angry, thinking in his heart, if he had the courage to go to Li Ge at that time, would the consequences be the opposite of now, would Li Ge be the one who was all about her?
"I'm!" She thumped her chest, stomped hard, roared angrily, and ran forward.
"Hello? Ouyang tilt! ”
Pingchat, who was still confused by her words, didn't have time to catch her, so he could only chase after her.
……
"Sister...... Let's go back and tell the prince. "In the lush grass next to the plum tree, the two palace maids were shivering with a basket full of roses, in the palace, who didn't know that His Majesty Li Ge loved his only sister, Princess Li Kai, but what they heard today really frightened them......
Their hearts suddenly became excited, and they smiled proudly as if they had done a great job.
"If the prince knows the news, he will definitely make me a concubine."
"Don't dream, just stand on me. What bullshit Yunfei, let us pick flowers, laundry, blow and bask in the sun every day, my white and tender skin is dark, and so on let her know that we are amazing! So he threw down the basket, and the two blue roses were sprinkled on the ground, and the two hurriedly walked to the Huashu Palace......
In the pool bathtub in the Huasu Palace, the high shelves are hazy and covered with a thin light veil, and the clothes on the pool platform are messy and hung on the ground.
"Prince, wait first." She nudged him and took a few steps back.
"What? Wash mandarin ducks. Bath shy? A wicked smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"No, concubine...... Concubines can't take a bath without petals......" she said with a blush.
"What about the petals? Come on, take the petals. Yan Moqi called out to the door, and just as the two of them arrived, they were hurriedly pushed into the hall by the eunuch.
They strode in excitedly and saluted Yan Moqi with a smile on their faces.
"What about the petals?" Xu Mengyun's eyes searched for them, but the two people in front of him came in empty-handed!
"Petals?" The two of them glanced at each other with a disdainful smile.
"You are so bold!" Xu Mengyun walked down the steps of the pool, and Yan Moqi, who was sitting in the back, sat and tasted wine like a show.
Seeing Xu Mengyun walking up, they didn't have stage fright at all, but raised their heads and glared at her.
"You! You guys! On the contrary, it seems unjustifiable not to teach you today! Xu Mengyun blushed angrily, panting rapidly in his chest, and raised his hand to slap them on the face.
"You hit! Hit me and see how you explain to the prince! I have important information about His Majesty Li Ge in my hands, if you make me angry, see how the prince teaches you. ”
One of the palace maids proudly grabbed Xu Mengyun's hand hanging in the air.
Yan Moqi, who was sitting on the edge of the pool, suddenly lit up with a hazy drunken eye, stopped the wine glass that was sent to his mouth, and looked at them.
The palace maid's eyes crossed Xu Mengyun's body, glanced at Yan Moqi affectionately, and then looked at the usually respected Concubine Yun Niangniang in front of her, her eyes were disdainful, and she grabbed her hand and threw it down......
After all, Xu Mengyun has been pampered since she was a child, and she has not been bullied at all, and she fell to the ground after this throw.
"Prince, you have to be the master of Concubine Yun!" Xu Mengyun sat on the ground aggrievedly.
Yan Moqi glanced at her and waved his hand to signal the two palace maids to step forward.
"Prince...... The slave maid misses you so much......" The two palace maids sat on both sides of Yan Moqi and threw themselves into his arms.
"Leprechaun." He provoked the palace maid on his right to look at the even better-looking palace maid. "Tell me, what important information do you have?"
The palace maid beat his chest in shame, clasped his neck, and whispered in his ear for a long time.
Hearing this, Yan Moqi's brows tightened.
"Prince, how's it going? The slave maid brought such important news to the prince, shouldn't he be rewarded? She put her hands on his shoulders and looked expectantly.
"Well, it's time to be treated."
The two palace maids excitedly walked to the ground from the side and thanked them.
"Come on, pull them and cut them down." Yan Moqi raised his cup and said coldly.
The palace maid panicked, obviously she had made a great contribution, why did she have to punish her......
"The prince spares his life, and the slave doesn't know what's wrong! Prince...... The prince spared his life...... "The palace maids trembled and grabbed his feet and begged for mercy.
"Who told you that His Majesty Li Ge's news was reported to my prince?" He drank and threw the glass at her head.
"Prince, the prince spares his life, the slave maid was dressed at the door that day, and I heard Concubine Yun Niangniang say......" The palace maid just wanted to talk down, and reacted in an instant.
"The prince spares his life...... The slave promised not to say half a sentence to the outside world...... Slaves and maids, slaves and maids don't listen nonsense, and if they don't talk anymore, it's ......" they kowtowed to death.
Yan Moqi grabbed the hair of the palace maid on the left, and her face was already full of tears and trembling......
"Can you be smarter? Only the dead can be trusted. ”
Following Yan Moqi's gesture, two generals walked in outside the door and pressed and tied them.
"Prince...... The prince spares his life...... Spare ......"
Yan Moqi didn't care about their call for help at all, glared at Xu Mengyun who was sitting on the ground, and then turned around and walked down the pool with a calm face.
In his mind, the words of the palace maid circulated in the tip of his ear.
"It's getting more and more interesting. Ouyang tilt. ”
