Chapter Twenty-Five: Exciting

At night, the sky suddenly became cold.

The cold wind was biting, and Gong Zhengqing stood in the alley between the palace walls with his arms crossed, just waiting for Gong Que to come to the appointment.

It's a little strange, it's clear that the little slut said to ask him to come here, why can't he even see a figure at this time?

Especially since it was pitch black, there was not even a single figure, and it was quiet as if it was dead.

The moonlight was as cold as water, and the algae in the water were crisscrossed, and occasionally he could hear the jackdaws startling the branches, and the hoarse sound frightened him from time to time.

It's getting colder and cooler here.

Especially when the sassy wind came, it took away the residual warmth on his clothes and most of his courage.

Originally, it was just a moment of anger, but now that the cold wind is blowing, Gong Zhengqing has calmed down.

Thinking about it carefully, it must have been the little slut who had a grudge against him for what he had done at noon, so he tricked him with this trick.

How could he grant her wish?

I won't wait for her!

His fingertips were red from the cold, and Gong Zhengqing put his hands in his sleeve robe.

Wu turned around and was about to leave, when he heard a woman's humming behind him, intermittent and resentfulβ€”

"The sun dwells in the moon! Shine on the ground. It is like a man, and he will not pass away. Can Hu be determined? Would you rather me ignore it? ”

Although he was a little afraid in his heart, Gong Zhengqing felt that he couldn't lose the shelf of the royal family, and asked in a voice: "Who is doing here?!" When this prince tells his father, he will not have any good fruit for you to eat! ”

The voice ignored his intimidation and continued to whisper, tossing and turning over just one sentence.

The wind came, scattering the sound into the distance, and it was sad and lingering, causing Gong Zhengqing to feel chills down his spine.

He's just a child, where have you ever seen such an evil battle?

Immediately, he was so frightened that his legs were a little weak, and he suddenly fell to the ground, not knowing what to do.

"Fifth prince, the slave maid is a small palace, don't you remember?"

The voice is ethereal, as if through layers of veils, which makes people unreal, and those who don't know still think that Xiao Gong really came back from the underworld to lock his soul.

Komiya? Didn't she die!!

Gong Zhengqing swallowed his saliva fiercely, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

"Brother Five? Five Emperor Brothers? ”

Gong Que's soft voice came from the other side of the alley, and Gong Zhengqing immediately understood that it was her who did it.

Furious, Gong Zhengqing suddenly looked up at the person who was late, but the scene in front of him shocked him-

It was true that the person who came was Gong Que, but she was followed by a woman in white.

The woman's arms stiffened and moved with Gong Que's movements, as if she was using an invisible thread to control Gong Que's words and deeds.

She beckoned, and Gong Que beckoned; Her arms swayed stiffly, and Gong Que's hands swayed stiffly!

What was even more terrifying was that the woman in white whispered in her ear, but she continued to walk towards him as if she didn't even notice it.

"Y-Don't come here! Don't come!! ”

Gong Zhengqing almost burst out of his throat, and for a while, he staggered up from the ground and fled behind him.

"Brother Five? Five Emperor Brothers? Looking at the man's embarrassed appearance and seeing the water stains on the ground, Gong Que couldn't help but smile, and smiled at the "female ghost" behind him: "There is no need to act for the time being." ”

After hearing this, Xu Yuan hurriedly brushed away the hair that covered his face, and a face covered with rouge and gouache was pale in the moonlight, like an old hanger.

"Chi Chi's voice just now is really scary, the mother concubine almost thought that Xiao Gong was back!" Xu Yuan stroked his palms and smiled, "Now I'm not afraid of being bullied by bad guys, I'm so smart!" ”

But Gong Que just smiled lightly and didn't say anything, just draped the cloak on his body over Xu Yuan.

After tidying up her clothes that had been torn by the wind, he spread his arms out, facing the wind, closing his eyes, enjoying something.

After a long time, she slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a faint nasal voice in her words to Xu Yuan: "It's getting late, let's go back early." ”

"Good!"

That night, Gong Que felt that he was cold, his forehead was hot, and his cheeks were crimson.

However, this also happened to fulfill her wish.

……

At that time, someone in the palace heard that the fifth prince was frightened last night, and he had been haunted by nightmares at night, causing a high fever that did not go away, and now he couldn't eat anything.

There are still words in his mouth: "She's back!" She's back! She's going to take my life!! ”

It's just that no one knows who this "she" is.

On the other side, Gong Que dressed up as usual, although he still had a high fever, he decorated it with rouge and powder, so that he couldn't see his sick appearance.

Until she heard someone pass her name, urging her to hurry to Ziling Palace.

Helpless, Gong Que could only stand up from the stool with that headache, tidy up his appearance and step out of the room, and followed the palace people to Ziling Palace.

It's really lively here, and the palace people are walking back and forth, as if they are afraid that if they slow down, they will provoke the anger of the people in the house.

As soon as she stepped inside, Gong Que found several young men in yellow robes standing on both sides, some of whom looked about her age, and they were her royal brothers.

But the crown prince is not included here.

"Get on your knees!" The woman's high-pitched voice sounded, stabbing Gong Que's ears with pain.

If so, not only that, but Gong Que also put his hands on each other, palms on the ground, and bowed his head to make a bow.

This worship, and he never got up again.

"...... you" Gong Lin Fang wanted to open his mouth to ask Gong Que what happened last night, but he didn't expect Gong Que to take all the blame before him-

"The daughter knows that she has made a big mistake, and she asks her father to take it seriously."

Gong Que voluntarily confessed to all the crimes.

In order to make it realistic and believable, she did not hesitate to deliberately fabricate relevant details to make everyone believe what she said.

No one expected her to make such a play, even Jian Suxi didn't expect her to confess her guilt so happily.

Not only that, Gong Que also deliberately emphasized:

"My daughter has been in Yongxu Palace for many years, and I don't know that there is no one to protect her in the prosperous world, and the five emperor brothers have both fine clothes and jade food and are deeply pitied by their mothers, how can Chi Chi not be jealous?"

"Yesterday's events were just a stinging eye-blushing and trying to scare him. First, I want to frustrate his spirit, and secondly, I want to make everyone pay more attention to it and enjoy the taste of glory and wealth. ”

"Now my daughter has nothing to gain now, but it is even more disgusting, this is retribution, and it is also deserved. The daughter is determined to subjugate the law and will never be obsessed again. ”

Gong Que burst into tears, which made Jian Suxi unable to help but be moved, and it was inconvenient to be strong.

And Gong Lin, who was sitting on the side, was silent, he had long known the ins and outs of that day.

He knew that his stupid daughter was like this, but she was just protecting her mother.

As soon as he thought of this, Gong Lin's heart hurt carefully.

But distressed is distressed, for the sake of fairness, he still has to punish Gong Que.

Seeing that she had such an honest attitude, Jian Suxi secretly laughed at her that she was a tiger made of paper, vulnerable and not troublesome.

It's just that this punishment is indispensable, one is to establish rules for her, and the other is to avenge the frightened revenge for his beloved son.

"Your Majesty, this person from the cold palace lacks rules, why don't you let her be confined for three days and study quietly?" Jian Suxi pretended to be magnanimous, "Besides, the concubine sees that she is also suffering from the cold, so it is good to calm down and recuperate." ”

"Yes, delayed, you can take the punishment."

"Thank your father and aunt for forgiveness, and my daughter will go back to the palace for confinement."

Gong Que got up weakly, and the rest of the people dispersed together.

It all looks like it's going to be gone.

On the way back, the Seventh Prince, Gong Kangshun, also talked with the Second Prince, Gong Guanyu: "Second Emperor Brother, why do you say this little sister is so stupid? That day, there was no one but her and the fifth child, if she didn't recognize it, what would others do with her? But she wanted to confess her guilt, and she confessed before her father opened his mouth, isn't it stupid? ”

After hearing what he said, Gong Guanyu secretly chuckled: "You're the stupid person, right?" ”

"Oh? Why did the second emperor brother say this? ”

"Do you know what would happen if she didn't?"

Gong Kangshun was very curious: "How?" ”

"Heh, now in this palace, except for that one, it is this Jian Guifei who is the elder. If she doesn't admit it, Jian Guiren will inevitably embarrass her, and then she and her mother will not have a good time in the palace in the future. ”

But if she confessed her mistake and pleaded guilty now, then Jian Guiren would never have thought that this was her trick, and she would be satisfied to see her like this. Moreover, in this way, it aroused Jian Guiren's pity, so as not to cause people to poison her. ”

After hearing this, Gong Kangshun suddenly realized and said, "I see, this girl can be said to be thoughtful." ”

"But it's just speculation." Gong Guanyu curled her lips and smiled, and her fingertips tapped the folding fan in her hand, "Maybe she was cowardly and confessed her guilt when she was frightened, after all, she was just a four or five-year-old child, who knows?" ”

"Ugh."
