Chapter 4 Crisis

In a moment, a coquettish voice came from outside the door of Yixue Pavilion: "Bold, I came to invite the emperor by the order of the Empress Dowager, which slave are you who dare to block the way of my father-in-law?" ”

The eunuch's usual shrill voice pierced the silence, and Xue Jiao heard it from a distance, frowned slightly, and looked at Si Tou Feng sideways.

There was a voice outside the door again, but this time it was Xiaoyu's reluctant voice: "Father-in-law, the emperor and his mother are enjoying the flowers in the courtyard, it is inconvenient to disturb, you ...... You're still ......"

The eunuch frowned when he heard this, this is not something that can be delayed, his face couldn't help but be a little solemn, he thought about it for a while, stepped forward step by step, lowered his head and whispered in Xiao Yu's ear: "Is it possible that you want to disobey the will of the Empress Dowager?" Hearing this, Xiao Yu shrank his head and took a step back unconsciously.

Lowering his head, Nuo Nuo said, "Father-in-law...... The slave did not dare to ...... It's just that...... The emperor has ordered...... If there is no permission from the emperor, no one is allowed to disturb ......" timidly raised his innocent eyes and looked at his father-in-law: "Slaves and maids dare not make their own decisions...... Or...... Father-in-law, please wait a moment? ”

I heard that he was originally the personal palace person of the Empress Dowager, when was he rejected like this, to say, the Empress Dowager must come to report to the emperor, but now a little slave and maid stopped him at the door.

Thinking to himself, his face immediately changed slightly, his sinister eyes flashed instantly, and the eyes that squinted at Xiaoyu looked at her secretly.

Slowly, word by word: "What a clever minion, this father-in-law will go back to report to the Empress Dowager, you still have to do it yourself." ”

After speaking, without any reaction from Xiaoyu, he waved his sleeves vigorously, snorted coldly, and turned around to leave angrily.

The footsteps are extremely dignified.

Si Teng Feng, who was in the inner courtyard, hugged Xue Jiao's slender waist, and smiled at the corner of his lips: "Concubine...... I didn't think your minions would have a bit of a concubine's demeanor. ”

Si Teng Feng's words, Xue Jiao listened, her brows frowned slightly, it was not that she had any opinions on Si Teng Feng's words, but she was inexplicably worried, Xiao Yu ......

Thinking of leaning affectionately in his arms, there are too many ulterior conspiracies in this palace, and she doesn't dare to guarantee that in the next second, she will have the ability to defend anyone around her.

In the evening, it is enough to prove that Xue Jiao's worries are not unreasonable, tonight's Taise is especially bleak, and the dark curtain is closed, cutting off a life that should be innocent.

The sound of Ning Chao's footsteps was enough to show the number of people coming, Xue Jiao was lying on the bed sideways, the futon beside her was still hot, reaching out and stroking the still warm futon, and the complex and tangled thoughts in her eyes were struggling to death.

The people from the palace came to report that there was a change in the border pass, so Si Teng Feng stepped on the snow and hurriedly went to the imperial study to discuss with the minister.

Xue Jiao listened to the words and felt a shock in her heart. Border? Could it be Yuexi?

As he was thinking, there was a knock on the door, and he heard the loud shouting: "Open the door, open the door...... According to the order of the Empress Dowager, arrest the minions who committed the crime, and open the door quickly. The louder and louder cries outside the courtyard made everyone in the Yixue Pavilion get up one after another.

This time it was Yiyi's turn to keep vigil, she stood outside the door, and called softly: "Niangniang......"

Xue Jiao replied softly: "What's going on outside?" ”

"It is said that the Empress Dowager wants to arrest the slave who committed the crime, and the father-in-law has already gone to open the door."

Xue Jiao suddenly felt bad in her heart, lifted the futon, got up and put on a thin coat, "Come in." ”

Yiyi listened to the words and pushed the door lightly. Bow your head, "Mother." ”

"Dress, dress." A few simple words, Yiyi hurriedly stepped forward.

Xue Jiao, who was sitting in front of the dresser, had clear eyes, a faint misty color, her brows were slightly twisted, she didn't come early or late, she just waited for Si Teng Feng to leave before coming, compared to the Empress Dowager, she came on purpose.

The gate slammed open, and outside stood a small group of guards, all with swords hanging from their waists.

looked at the palace man who opened the door with a cold face.

Standing at the front was the father-in-law who was blocked by Xiaoyu outside the door, Wei San, the personal palace man of the Empress Dowager.

He smiled coldly and looked at the person who opened the door: "My father-in-law has served the order of the Empress Dowager to arrest the slaves who committed crimes, and if you don't want to get involved, quickly retreat to the side, don't hinder my father-in-law's work." ”

glanced at the palace people on the side with disdain, and strode into Yixue Pavilion.

The guards behind him followed, only to hear him say coldly: "Go and bring the little fish out." ”

It was obviously said to the palace people standing in the courtyard, and everyone looked at each other in confusion.

This little fish is Niangniang's personal maid, how could she offend the Queen Mother?

"I don't know what my father-in-law is looking for Xiaoyu?" The cold voice sounded slowly, with a touch of arrogance, and there was no lack of majesty.

Xue Jiao walked over with a smile, and stood still under the support of Yiyi and under the attention of everyone.

Looking at the palace man in front of her who ignored Yixue Pavilion, she sneered: "Father-in-law, has he forgotten what kind of place this is?" Trespassing without the permission of the palace and the emperor can be seen as the following crimes, and the crime is unforgivable. ”

The visitor snorted coldly and bowed respectfully to Xue Jiao. opened his mouth and said: "The slave is under the will of the Empress Dowager, and he came to arrest the ignorant slave, and he invited the mother to disturb the place where the mother of the Tao is not strange." ”

"The ignorant minions have to be punished, but the minions in the courtyard of the palace rarely go out, and they all follow the rules very well, so my father-in-law is afraid that he has come to the wrong place." Xue Jiao dismissed it coldly.

Wei San's face changed slightly, after all, Xue Jiao is the most favored concubine of the emperor today, and it will be possible to ascend to the throne, so she is still a little jealous.

Bent down and arched his hand and said: "Niangniang, the slave is only doing things, the queen mother's will, the slave does not dare to disobey, and asks the mother to hand over the small fish, and the slave can hurry back to explain to the queen mother." ”

"There are no people, if the father-in-law insists on arresting people, it is better to bring the palace to the queen mother, so that the father-in-law can explain?" Between the sly words, Xue Jiao's eyes looked at Wei San like a deep pool.

"...... You...... Aren't you embarrassed by the old slave? After thinking about it, he raised his eyes and laughed softly: "Why don't you take this opportunity to show favor to the Empress Dowager, why offend the Empress Dowager for a slave?" ”

Xue Jiao listened to what she said, and what she said was very good...... Could it be that she didn't know that the Empress Dowager's move was all aimed at her to show her goodwill? Hehe...... Xue Jiao chuckled, if it was possible, the Empress Dowager would not have come here.

"If the father-in-law is fine, please go back, the palace still has to rest, and the emperor will arrive later......"

looked at Wei San remindedly.

Wei San's body couldn't help but tremble.

After thinking about it for a while, he gritted his teeth, waved his sleeves and turned around and drank coldly: "Go." ”

Xue Jiao looked at the group of people who were gradually moving away, and secretly had some competition in her heart. It seems that Xiaoyu offended the Queen Mother this time, and it is bound to endanger her life.

Just as Xue Jiao was worried, a cry of surprise sounded in the distant room.

Xue Jiao frowned, and a bad premonition arose.

looked sideways at Yiyi, "Go and see what's going on?" ”
