The palace attendant brought tea in, Qi Jiaojiao got up, reached out and took it with her own hand, and put it in Qi Yan's hand.

"Auntie, don't be angry with unworthy people, drink a cup of tea to quench the fire."

Qi Yan patted the back of her niece's hand and said with a smile: "You still have to be a daughter to be intimate, like your cousin Zhan, you don't know how to comfort the palace, it's okay if you don't get angry with the palace all day." ”

Qi Jiaojiao lowered her eyelids, and her eyes were slightly dark: "Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet, Your Majesty attaches so much importance to the eldest lady of the Zhao family, I think that her cousin Zhan will marry a wife soon, when the aunt has a daughter-in-law, there is no need for Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao takes advantage of the fact that her cousin has not yet entered the palace to accompany her aunt more." ”

Seeing her niece's reluctant and reluctant smile, Qi Yan felt pity to the heart.

"Jiaojiao, don't talk nonsense, an ignorant and vulgar girl like Zhao Qingwan who doesn't know how to be polite is not as good as you at all, my aunt will not let her enter the palace, you are the only daughter-in-law approved by your aunt, you put your heart in your stomach, and when your cousin Zhan returns to Beijing, your aunt will ask Your Majesty to give you two a marriage."

Qi Jiaojiao was excited and happy in her heart, and said with a shyly expression: "Auntie-"

The girl's shy and timid appearance amused Qi Yan.

Not long after Biqiao came back, she bent over and reported: "The eldest lady of the Zhao family and Miss Tang Jiu entered the palace an hour ago, and now they are enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden. ”

Qi Jiaojiao was deliberately surprised: "Why did they run to the Imperial Garden?" Shouldn't you be the first to visit your aunt? ”

Bi Qiao glanced at Qi Yan and said cautiously: "I heard that when I was passing by the Imperial Garden, I was dazzled by the flowers inside, so I delayed." ”

Qi Yan's face immediately darkened, and she put down the teacup heavily.

"There are two stinky girls who don't know what to do, this palace wants to see, what flowers are so beautiful, they can forget to come to see this palace! Walk! ”

Qi Jiaojiao gloated in her heart, looking at her aunt like this, Zhao Qingwan and Tang Jiu were afraid that they were going to suffer.

At this time, Ning Yuchu's master and servant hid and finally came to the Imperial Garden.

"Qingqiu, do you think that our journey is too smooth?"

Before stepping into the garden, Ning Yuchu looked around suspiciously and asked Qingqiu in a low voice.

Qingqiu nodded: "On weekdays, there are guards of the forbidden army on this road, and we don't seem to have met a few." ”

Ning Yuchu frowned lightly and said, "It stands to reason that there has just been an assassination case in the palace, and the security should be more stringent, why did you relax instead?" When I look back, I have to talk to the imperial grandfather to be vigilant. ”

After taking two steps, Qingqiu pointed diagonally forward: "Master, look, is that Miss Nine?" ”

Ning Yuchu looked at it, there were two figures standing by the pool, one of them looked very similar to the ugly monster in his clothes and hair.

"That's it, let's go, go over and have a look."

The master and servant walked briskly.

"Tang Jiu, Tang Jiu?"

Ning Yuchu called twice, but the other party didn't respond, and he couldn't help but reach out to pat her shoulder.

At this time, the other party turned his head, and it was an unrecognizable face.

Ning Yuchu was stunned, and was about to withdraw his hand, but the other party suddenly retreated, made a gesture of being pushed out, and planted himself in the pool.

Everything was developing too fast, and Ning Yuchu didn't react at all.

At this time, Qi Yan brought Qi Jiaojiao and his party in, and just witnessed this scene, and everyone was dumbfounded when they saw Ning Yuchu's hand that had not yet been withdrawn, as well as the people who were fluttering in the water.

At this time, I don't know who shouted: "Miss Tang Jiu has fallen into the water-"

Qi Yan came back to his senses and ordered: "Quick, save people!" ”
