In fact, the night sky at this time was full of stars, and it was an excellent night, but I was afraid that Xiao Heling would also sleep in the mountains for the first time. Sikong Jun fell asleep against the wall outside the broken house, and before going to bed, Xiao Heling brought hot water and handed it to Sikong Jun: "Drink something hot to warm your body, don't get cold." In fact, although this house is broken, there are still many cubicles, and it doesn't hurt for the soldiers to sleep in the room. ”

The subordinates also smiled: "Miss Xiao doesn't have to worry about us, in fact, our brothers have long been used to it." ”

A few responses came, Xiao Heling had no choice but to thank him again and get up, Sikong Jun extinguished the fire again, and said: "Now that there is no fire, it will not be so conspicuous, let's sleep outside, if there is any noise, my brothers and I can deal with it immediately." ”

Xiao Heling nodded: "Well, I believe that the person who is chasing and killing will not run so far." ”

Sikong Jun suddenly remembered something and said, "You talked about this...... No, it's really hard to hide if someone does find it. So I will now mount my horse and let the horse run an extra mile to the east, and even if someone wants to follow the trail, it will not run in our direction. ”

After that, Sikong Jun stepped over Ling, rode on a horse, took a torch, and galloped towards the depths of the dense forest, and Xiao Heling didn't even have time to say goodbye.

Fu'an waited for Xiao Heling to go to bed, and said: "The general is really a good person, the slave thinks that if you don't enter the palace, it will be excellent to get a man like a general." ”

Xiao Heling tapped Fu'an's forehead with his finger and said, "The general is our benefactor, and we are not allowed to say these unashamed words in front of outsiders in the future." ”

"The slave and maid see it in their eyes, the slave and the maid know that the young lady is worried about the lord and the lady now, but this is not the same thing as the general, what if he is your wishful husband......"

"Shhhh They have delayed a lot of energy to save us, so let's get to sleep. Xiao Heling said with a suppressed voice.

The two talked and laughed for a while, and then slept quietly. Half-asleep and half-awake, Xiao Heling heard someone riding a horse back, and as soon as he put down his weapon, there was no sound outside. The room was quiet and cold, and the fatigue of the whole day swept Xiao Heling's body and brought her into a deep autumn dream.

The night in the Great Yin Palace is more intimidating than the mountains and barren forests, and it surrounds the halls of many flowers.

Concubine Xian lived in the Zhu Jing Palace, and her condition had deteriorated in the past few days, which made the Zhu Jing Hall fall into a panic and tension from top to bottom.

This night, Concubine Xian, who was sick on the bed, woke up slowly and called the personal palace maid Shuangdie.

Shuangdie hurriedly held the palace lamp and slowly walked to the side of the seriously ill Concubine Xian, looking at Concubine Xian's pale cheeks, Shuangdie's bitter face couldn't help but be full of tears: "Niangniang, it's so late, what do you command?" ”

"Double ...... Double butterfly, help me, get up. Concubine Xian commanded angrily.

The double butterfly put down the lamp and lifted the virtuous concubine up with moderate strength, and the virtuous concubine was like a withered begonia, and when the wind blew, it would dissipate in the air.

"Close the door."

"Yes." Shuangdie agreed, walked lightly to the door of the main hall, and with a "squeak", closed the door in the night.

"Concubine Xian Niangniang," Shuangdie said worriedly, "Is there anything Niangniang wants to tell the slave?" You're not in good shape, so you should lie down in bed and rest. ”

Concubine Xian dragged the sick body with great difficulty, walked to the table, stared at the lamps and candles on the table, for a long time, and then said: "Shuangdie, help me, bring the pen and paper." ”

Shuangdie did not slack off at all, handed everything to Concubine Xian, and lit an extra lamp and candle.

Although Concubine Xian is terminally ill and angry, she is steady in writing and writing, as if she is writing about a very important matter. The bright light of the candle flame shone into her eyes, as if to illuminate all the sadness of her illness, leaving no room for it.

After writing one, Concubine Xian folded the letter and handed it to Shuangdie, "This letter, you must entrust someone to transfer it to my son." ”

On the letterhead, the four-line words that wasted a lot of effort to write do not match the afterword, it is very difficult to understand, Shuangdie couldn't help but look at the letter and read out: "Why do you need Qingyu Fang as a pillow, Hanxiang daughter cherishes Qingning......"

Before the words fell, Concubine Xian weakly stopped: "Don't read it, don't read it...... You have to keep this letter for the palace, and it must fall into the hands of my son King Di, and there must be no mistakes. ”

Shuangdie bowed his head deeply, and put the letter paper on his chest with both hands, "Don't worry, the slave and maid will definitely be handed over to His Royal Highness King Di, and the slave and maid will not think about the meaning of these four sentences." ”

Concubine Xian's face finally relaxed, and then she took out another piece of paper, and the thick black pen and ink rose and fell on the paper again.

After a long time, after writing the second letter, Concubine Xian was relieved, and she showed a sad smile in her haggard and weak manner.

Concubine Xian gave Shuangdie a second letter: "This second letter, you have to hide it, hide it in this palace, one, in the corner......"

Shuangdie's expression was slightly puzzled: "Hidden in our Zhu Realm Palace?" ”

Concubine Xian closed her eyes slightly and nodded.

Shuangdie wiped her tears and replied: "The slave must be hidden, does the mother have any other instructions?" ”

Concubine Xian seemed to be extremely tired, sat on the stool and took a few breaths, then turned sideways slightly, looked at the bookcase in the distance and smiled: "You go...... Give me the second layer, the box. ”

Twin Butterfly quickly brought the delicate copper box, held it firmly in front of Concubine Xian, and opened it, and inside was a small blue and white bottle, and some pieces that looked like stones.

"One of these two things you keep for yourself, and the other one for someone you trust. However, don't hand it over to Su Jieyu, if you know too much, she will be in danger. After the concubine finished speaking, she stuffed the two things into Shuangdie's hand and closed Shuangdie's hand tightly.

Shuangdie nodded, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, took a step back and knelt down, bowed to Concubine Xian three times, and her voice was intermittently hoarse: "The slave maid on a cloudy day is not a person in the Niangniang Palace, Niangniang, you have to take care of your illness, and the slave and maid will pray for you every day in the Buddha Hall." ”

Concubine Xian was also full of tears, and seemed to be relieved, and patiently told a mother to her daughter who was about to marry far away: "On a cloudy day, I will send you out of the palace on the grounds that you are lazy in the Zhujing Palace." Me...... I'm tired, I really don't know what's going to happen here, you have to leave as soon as possible. ”

Shuangdie knelt on the ground, sobbing on the lap of Concubine Xian, choked so that she could not speak, and the light of the candle flame reflected the shadows of the two on the carved wooden wall in the distance, with the night breeze blowing, like sparkling water, floating slightly.

The morning light was faint, and after a night of darkness, it finally sprinkled back to the Great Yin Palace.

Early in the morning, Shuangdie was driven out by the eunuchs in the Zhujing Palace on the grounds of "ineffective work", and pointed her to the Shanggong Bureau to do miscellaneous work. Concubine Xian was still lying on the bed, sleeping quietly.

Two days later, Concubine Xian finally couldn't afford to get sick, and the people who came to visit the palace were sent away by the queen, saying that they could no longer disturb Concubine Xian's cultivation, and even made a decree that without the permission of the queen, idle people were not allowed to step into the Zhujing Palace.

As a result, Su Jieyu, who was good friends with Concubine Xian, was even more anxious, and she glanced at the outside of the Zhujing Hall from a distance several times, but because of the queen's will, she could only go back to the Hanliang Palace.

Jing'er persuaded: "Little master, the virtuous concubine Niangniang is a good person, and she will definitely be safe and sound." ”

Su Jieyu fidgeted in the palace, "I believe in the auspicious nature, but I also believe in natural disasters and man-made disasters, if it is a natural disaster, then the auspicious people can be resolved; But if it's a man-made disaster......"

Jing'er dodged her eyes, and said with a smile: "Is there anyone in the palace who is disrespectful to Concubine Xian, little master, you are too worried." ”

Su Jieyu's eyes were slightly red, but she finally calmed down, sat down and said, "I hope, I'm too worried." Let's go, today is still the day for the three new royal wives to meet the concubines, and I have to hurry to Qingning Palace. ”

"Yes, the slave will change your clothes."

Today is the third day that the three new wives enter the palace, and according to the rules, they must meet the queen and the rest of the concubines. Because Zheng Jieyu died two months ago, there are only a few concubines in the harem, including the queen, Concubine De, Concubine Xian and Su Jieyu.

Qingyun lives in the Qingzui Pavilion, and it is not far to rush to Qingning Palace.

As soon as the morning dawned, the three royal wives got up early to wash, bathed again, and then changed into high-quality clothes and went to Qingning Palace.

The queen was already sitting on the throne of Qingning Palace, Concubine De's eyes were cold, and she sat down with Su Jieyu in order, and the three royal wives walked quickly to the center, ready to bow and salute.

"The three sisters came so early, they really understand the rules, and the selection envoys didn't pick the wrong person for Your Majesty this time." The queen laughed.

The three replied: "Thank you for the queen's praise, the concubines are overjoyed." ”

The queen smiled and said, "Okay, you can give a big gift to the palace." ”

However, just as Qingyun was leaning over to salute, the palace dress she was wearing suddenly opened a grin, and her clothes suddenly fell off her back, revealing the pale bedclothes inside.

"Ah, concubine—"

Qingyun's palace clothes suddenly broke, which was extremely embarrassing, causing everyone in Qingning Palace to rush to help.

Su Jieyu rushed forward in a big stride, almost stumbled and slipped, and hurriedly picked up the fabric behind the palace dress for Qingyun to cover the bedclothes inside, Qingyun was extremely flustered for a while, and even a few strands of hair fell down.

Su Jieyu, named Su Fengying, is the biological mother of the fifth prince Li Yi; Li Yi is His Royal Highness the current King Sui, who is only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Concubine De took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and said idly without raising her head: "The new royal wife is so rude, she actually lost her temper in front of the queen, and wore such a shabby palace dress at the ceremony of meeting the queen, this is a big disrespect, dragged out, and the rod will be punished fifty." As for Chen Meiren and Yang Cairen......"

Chen Meiren and Yang Cairen were originally supporting Qingyun, but now they were also panicked and hurriedly knelt down: "The concubine is out of shape, and I hope that Concubine De will forgive her sins." ”

Su Jieyu didn't come to her senses for a while, so she had to help Qingyun kneel, not daring to say anything.
