Pei Yuanhao raised his hand, signaled him to silence, and then said: "The front is the inner palace, and the foreign ministers can't enter again, so you can go back first." ”

"But—"

Pei Yuanhao glanced back at him, his eyes slowly moved to me, I was stunned by him, and I heard him say, "You follow." ”

In all fairness, I also know that the prospect of returning to Beijing this time is unknown, I really don't want to participate in anything here, the battle between the princes and princes is the most dangerous in all dynasties, and the people below are on the right side, no matter what they kill, but I am just a small palace maid, without any interests to be gained, why should I let myself be in danger.

I subconsciously wanted to say something, but Pei Yuanhao said again: "Your case, if you don't settle it with the queen, I'm afraid that the place where you are locked up will not be a prison." ”

That's when I remembered.

The purpose of our trip south this time is to investigate the case of poisoning at the beginning, but this case is simply a case of embarrassment, and it can't be found out in a hundred years.

I bit my lower lip and whispered, "Yes." ”

Yang Yunhui and Pei Yuanhao whispered a few more words, and then retreated, Pei Yuanhao took me, and there were two entourages behind him holding some of our luggage, and walked towards the East Palace together.

Yonghe Palace is one of the six palaces in the east of the inner court, next to the prince's Chengqian Palace.

This place has been repaired before we went south, and I don't know how the progress of the project was so fast, and in just a few months, the emperor was allowed to move in.

After walking through the dark and difficult passage, those familiar red walls and green tiles appeared in front of my eyes again, the towering city wall traversed the surroundings, as if the dream I had on the night of the illness in Yangzhou City, the high walls stood tall, so depressed that people were almost breathless, perhaps because the snow here was too big, the wind was too cold, the more I walked, the more I felt that even the blood in the body was frozen.

At this moment, at the gate of Yonghe Palace in front, under the two red lanterns, a fluttering figure stood there.

I was stunned.

The snow fell one after another, but the man's smile seemed to be softer than the snow, as soon as he saw us, he walked over slowly, a snow-white wind seemed to be made of snow, with indescribable quietness, the fluffy fox fur on the neckline lined the eyes as clear as water, and the smile on the lips was also a soft spring breeze.

Pei Yuanhao's footsteps also slowed down, as if he glanced at me intentionally or unintentionally, and I subconsciously lowered my head.

Finally came together, Pei Yuanxiu smiled and said, "Third brother, don't come unharmed." ”

"Brother Lao Huang remembered."

"I heard from someone that you have done a lot of big things in the south, and your body is tired, why don't you go back to rest first?"

"I heard that my father Huanglong is unwell, how can my son rest first?"

Pei Yuanhao said with a smile: "The imperial brother is also a son, you should know the mind of the younger brother, right?" ”

"It's nature."

Pei Yuanxiu smiled gently, after all, the two of them didn't have much to talk about, his eyes slowly fell on me again, I just remembered that I didn't want him to give a salute, and hurriedly wanted to bow down, Pei Yuanxiu had already stretched out his hand to support me: "It's cold, no need." ”

It's cold, but his hands are really warm.

I looked at those clear eyes with some gratitude, but at this time, Pei Yuanhao's cold voice came: "Although the weather is cold, the slave maid is a slave in the end, the imperial brother, this rule must still be there, otherwise-"

He looked at Pei Yuanxiu and said with a smile: "I should say that my people don't know etiquette." ”
