Ru Sixuan saw that Nanshuang's eyes were afraid that it would be difficult to have a light of hope, but he felt that this look on him was a little funny.

"I've ever been a hypocrisy to you."

"Yes...... It's all my self-pity, you and I talked well in the car yesterday. Nanshuang smiled to herself, still the little girl who didn't know the height of the sky and the height of the Qingfeng on the clouds.

"Wait a while, the Queen Mother will be there, and I will go with Mingxiang."

"Don't you need me to follow behind?"

"You won't be afraid of the Queen Mother beating me, she won't. Besides, there are prohibitions in the palace, so it's useless for you to follow. "Nanshuang is not so restrained when she walks now, as if she is on the top of her head, and she is used to it when she shakes it.

"Because the lord of the kingdom will send someone else to follow you."

"You're jealous again?" Nanshuang turned her head violently and smiled, the gold ornaments on her body clanged.

Ru Sixuan didn't say anything, just walked silently with Nanshuang.

They didn't seem to realize that the agreement to go back to the capital and call each other "Miss" and "Sir" was a piece of nonsense.

*

"This Nanshuang Emperor Ji is really good at picking the time, but she comes when the Queen Mother is taking a nap, she doesn't know how to maintain her health, but she bothers the Queen Mother, she really doesn't understand the rules."

The two aunts who were guarding the door of the Queen Mother arranged Nanshuang in a high-profile manner, which was clearly the intention of the Queen Mother.

It was freezing cold, Nanshuang was wearing a heavy auspicious clothes, kneeling in the middle of the courtyard, and her face didn't dare to put one.

"Emperor, why don't we go back. You've been kneeling for more than an hour, and I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it. Ming Xiang persuaded in Nanshuang's ear.

She saw that Nanshuang's ears were already purple from the cold, not to mention her knees kneeling on the icy floor.

When Ming Xiang was in the palace, he was punished in the cold winter, and now he still has an old knee disease, and he is sore and unfavorable when it comes to the cold winter. She didn't want Emperor Ji to fall ill at such a young age.

"If you were slapped on her 100th birthday, which is only once in your life, would you let her go easily?"

This punishment is light enough for Nanshuang.

Today, even if the Queen Mother ordered someone to smash Nanshuang's face, she didn't dare to say a word.

But punishment is punishment, and it is better to see the above and speak. Otherwise, this knot will never be untied.

Nanshuang believes that the Queen Mother is a practical person, if she doesn't figure out what kind of person Nanshuang is, she will be an enemy for life because of a discord, such a person, even if Nanshuang makes friends, it is useless.

Therefore, no matter what you do today, as long as the Queen Mother is satisfied and discouraged, it will be worth it.

Nanshuang had been kneeling down to Shen Shi in an orderly manner since three o'clock in the afternoon, seeing that the sun was about to set. The chill on her face was surging, Nanshuang's eyebrows and eyes were already full of frost and snow, and when her eyelids were almost unable to hold up when her eyelashes were frozen, the Queen Mother finally dedicated.

Holding a hand stove, she took the first step from behind the curtain, and then raised her head in amazement: "The meridians on the forehead of this palace are beating so hard today, so I slept for a long time, and I didn't think that the light was so dim this day." ”

"Son-in-law Nanshuang, I have come to ask the imperial grandmother for my guilt!" Nanshuang's voice was sad, and she pleaded loudly, which was heard by the entire Taikang Palace.

The Queen Mother was still looking to the west, and the egg yolk that was about to fall into the pot was silent.

"Son-in-law Nanshuang, I have come to ask the imperial grandmother for my guilt!" Nanshuang kowtowed, her forehead slammed on the ground, and there was a loud sound, even Ming Xiang beside her was startled, and he immediately fell to the ground, and his eyes should not be raised.

"Ah Hua, how long has this southern frost been here?"

Ah Hua is the dowry maid of the Queen Mother, and has been with the Queen Mother for most of her life. Don't look at her as an old woman with gray hair and a wrinkled face, she is one of the few masters in the Ouchi and an assassin in the Nine Realms.

The real murder is invisible, shoot a palace maid and eunuch to death, and there is not a single wound on the body, and after a few days, the corpse will turn into blood and disappear.

Therefore, the people in the palace are afraid of her.

"Back to the Queen Mother, as soon as you fell asleep, the emperor was waiting outside. Listen to the rules, and keep kneeling without saying a word. ”

"Oh, is it? I don't look like a well-behaved person when I see it for the first time. ”

Nanshuang listened to the two singing in front of her, and she didn't dare to come out.

The night was slightly cool, and Nanshuang limped back to Mingyuan Palace from the Queen Mother, and saw Tao Zimo training Hangxiu.

It's long past the time of rotation, why are you still haunted here.

While talking to Tao Zimo, Hang Xiu did not forget to look into the Mingyuan Palace, as if he looked through the autumn water.

No, he just saw himself a few times, how can he seem to be affectionate and unforgettable. Nanshuang asked herself, she is not the kind of beauty at first sight, just like Su Tianzhi, and she is not haunted by Nanshuang's appearance.

"Deputy Commander Hang." Nanshuang called him softly.

He followed the prestige, and the autumn water eyes made Nanshuang kick again in embarrassment.

"Diji be careful." Ming Xiang hurriedly went to help Nanshuang, but unexpectedly, the long brocade box containing the queen mother's reward was about to fall to the ground.

Seeing this, Hang Xiu rushed over, scooped up the box with one hand, and picked up Ming Xiang with the other.

Ming Xiang politely bowed his head and smiled at Hang Xiu, his eyes seemed to be a little evasive. But Hang Xiu stared at Ming Xiang for a long time at this moment. On the contrary, Nanshuang, who deliberately paid attention to Hang Xiu's actions, did not even give her a little afterglow.

Now Nanshuang understands it completely.

The lord of the country ordered Mingxiang, a powerless and powerless palace maid, to come back to her as the palace maid in charge of Mingyuan Palace, and there was such a story in it.

Nan Shuang saw the twisting strength of the two people touching each other, and knew that although they cherished each other, they did not pierce the layer of window paper after all.

Before Ming Xiang left the palace at an age, he never had a reliable master, and after leaving the palace, his family died due to the cold disaster. If such a family affair is not married, it is like being the wife and wife of Hangxiu, which is obviously wishful thinking.

Perhaps the lord of the country had intended to marry Hang Xiu, but he was strongly resisted and investigated various reasons.

coincided with Nanshuang's return to the palace, so he simply gave the two of them another chance. It is also good for Nanshuang to receive a loyal servant, and the lord of the country can also accept Hang Xiu's heart, so that he will be willing to work for himself.

After all, he became the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army at such a young age, not to mention that he was the most beloved younger brother of the former queen, such a talent, the lord of the country would not let him be buried in the palace.

Once he has gained enough trust, he will be put into military training, expecting him to have greater achievements.

Nanshuang saw that the two of them still wanted to come and go in the same place for a while, so she said: "Mingxiang, the new palace maid and eunuch should be here, and I don't hurry up to lecture you." ”

"Ah......" Ming Xiang came back to his senses, "Yes." She was about to enter the Mingyuan Palace.

Seeing that Hang Xiu beside him wanted to stare for a while, Nan Shuang said helplessly: "The figure is gone, what else are you looking at?" ”

Only then did he ask the emperor for peace with some trepidation: "See the emperor for his humble position." ”

"You like to follow me so much? Or do you want to see clearly for the person you care about, whether this master is a well-dressed beast with a mask? ”

Hang Xiu immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty, not so much that he was worried about himself, but that he was worried about Ming Xiang.

"Humble duty, just fulfill the responsibility of protecting the emperor."

What a straight kid, he can't even make up lies.

"There is no prohibition outside the palace, what I have is the protection of a master, you are a ...... at the peak of the Five Realms" The word "waste" in Nanshuang's mind almost blurted out, "Hand-to-hand combat masters, in front of the spells of cultivators above the Six Realms, there is always a gap." So in the future, I don't want to see you outside the palace anymore and follow me like a fart, understand? ”

"Yes. It's a humble and abrupt position. ”

When Nanshuang saw his frightened look, she felt a little funny. It turned out that he was holding the life of someone else's beloved in his hand, and that person saw himself as if he had seen the Nine Heavens God and Buddha.

"."

"Retire from your duties."

How could this simple relationship of mutual admiration escape Tao Zimo's eyes.

As soon as Hang Xiu left, she leaned into Nanshuang's ear and said in surprise: "I didn't expect this Lord Hang to be so bold and dare to openly covet the palace maid, that is the woman of the lord of the country!" ”

"There are three thousand in the harem, so the lord of the country will not care that an old and decrepit palace maid is worried about a young and promising guard. On the contrary, it is still a kind of grace to silently allow them to socialize. Nanshuang looked at the direction where Hang Xiu was far away and said expressionlessly.

Old age? Tao Zimo is the first time to hear Nanshuang use such words to describe a woman who is not even thirty.

Obviously, Tao Zimo, who is about the same age as Ming Xiang, also has a little bad taste in her heart.

"My wise and martial father used different practical actions to teach me how to manipulate people's hearts. I didn't disdain to do it, I just thought it was coming a little fast.

I thought I was ready when I left the clouds. It is only today that I understand why my father gave me so much help. It's because I don't ...... at all It's just a straw cob. ”

After speaking, Nanshuang dragged her tired body and silently walked back to the dormitory of Mingyuan Palace.

Before she could call Ming Xiang to come and take off the auspicious clothes, Ming Xiang had already taken the initiative to kneel in the center of her dormitory.

But Nanshuang didn't have the extra energy to deal with another subordinate at this time, she sat down on the book floor, beckoned to Ming Xiang, and motioned for her to come along.

Ming Xiang also accompanied Nanshuang to kneel in the Empress Dowager's palace for a long time in the afternoon, and now he knelt down and slowly moved to Nanshuang, although his whole body felt unbearable soreness, and his knees were in severe pain.

But she was smart enough to know that Nanshuang must have seen the slip at the door just now.

Otherwise, he would not let himself go back to Mingyuan Palace first.

She whispered to Nanshuang's feet, and kowtowed to Nanshuang without saying a word: "Ask the emperor for mercy, the slave maid and Lord Hang are innocent, and there is nothing to do." ”

Ming Xiang knew Nanshuang, but it was only a day or two, and she couldn't tell what kind of face this emperor was hiding under the goodness on the surface.

"Shut up!" Nanshuang was tired of listening to these clichés in the palace today, "You get up first, help me put down all the accessories, and then change into a more comfortable set of clothes." ”

Ming Xiang didn't know what to do, so he had to do it obediently.

Nanshuang closed her eyes and took a short nap, but didn't say a word.

I have to say that Ming Xiang's hand is indeed very skillful, and when he unloaded such a complicated and messy hairpin ring, Nan Shuang did not feel any discomfort at all.

"Father summoned you back to the palace, did you promise you and Hang Xiu's marriage contract?" Nan Shuang's calm questioning made the fear in Ming Xiang's heart expand even more.

Ming Xiang didn't dare to answer, still doing what he was doing.

"Do you understand now that this power is in my hands?" Nanshuang's tone this time was obviously more threatening.

Although Ming Xiang's courage is not small, in the matter between her and Hang Xiu, she couldn't take any risks at that time. Because any mistake or omission may be the survival of the two families.

She fell to her knees again.

Nan Shuang really doesn't like it, the people in the palace are so unruly.

"I don't want to pay attention to your private life at all, if you don't want to do it one day and want to get out of the palace and get married, you can talk to me, and I will arrange it for you. But the condition is that you must wait for me to gain a firm foothold in Tielu City, and at least have the ability to ensure that the two of you have a beautiful wedding.

You have seen my situation in the palace today, and if I give this order now, I will undoubtedly bring about my own destruction. ”

Ming Xiang took the comb and was stunned for a while, his eyes were full of tears, but he didn't fall down after all.

"The slave and maid understand."

"When you're done, help me grate it again. The cold wind blew and the top of his head was numb. ”

"Yes, Teiki."
