Chapter 208: The Night of Candles in the Cave Room

The female official responded: "Back to Niangniang, it's her."

"Where did she come from?"

"Her name is Lan Yishu, she was invited by Concubine Rong from Jixia Academy, saying that she came to teach Concubine Rong Niangniang's etiquette lessons, and assisted Concubine Rong in the harem, this person is quite capable, and he managed all the affairs of the palace in an orderly manner not long after entering the palace, I heard that Concubine Rong Niangniang obeyed this Fengyi female official."

"Oh." Concubine Xiao's eyebrows condensed slightly, and her eyes looked at Lan Yishu deeply: "It seems that he is a capable person, when will Concubine Rong's straw bag be a corporal of Lixian, and then go and investigate this person carefully?"

"Yes." The female officer responded.

The carriage of the Chu family left the palace and suddenly stopped when it turned into an alley.

"Why did it stop?" Chu Zishan asked.

Sitting in the front of the car, Chu Chun lifted the curtain, "Girl, someone stopped the carriage and said that it was for the fifth girl to hand over something to you."

Chu Zishan frowned, her beautiful eyes were full of doubts, she lifted the curtain and saw a man standing in front of the carriage.

"General Chu, this is the letter that the fifth girl asked me to give you." The man handed the letter with both hands.

Chu Zishan took the letter, opened it and looked at it: "Okay, I know, you tell her that everything is fine, let her be careful."

"Okay, that's quit."

The man was just about to turn around, but Chu Zishan stopped, "Wait a minute."

She untied a brocade bag from her waist and threw it at the man, "You give this to the fifth sister."

"Yes." The man put the bag away, turned and walked away quickly.

The carriage started again, and Chu Zishan opened the letter again and looked at it.

Mrs. Chu looked a little nervous, "What does Chu Shiyu want to do, you must not do anything to her, don't cause the Chu family to suffer again."

Chu Zishan handed the letter to Mrs. Chu.

Mrs. Chu didn't answer, and leaned back lazily and closed her eyes.

Chu Zishan said: "The fifth sister is worried about you, and the first sentence of the letter asked you, but the letter came down without asking a word about the second aunt, which shows that the fifth sister is grateful for your kindness to her. Mother don't blame the fifth sister, if she wants to live in the palace in the future, she has to keep a distance from the Chu family, so that she and Mo Xiao can get better."

Mrs. Chu still closed her eyes, indifferent.

Chu Zishan said again: "Mother, after the marriage gift, you should know the emperor's attitude towards the Chu family. The reason why the emperor wants the fifth sister to live in the palace is to leave the fifth sister as a hostage, one is to check and balance my Chu family, and the other is to prevent the betrayal of Mo Xiao, she is in a very dangerous situation now.

If she and the Chu family get too close, it will be difficult for the Mo Xiao to do it, what she did today is just a drama for the emperor to watch, pretending to break with the Chu family, so that the emperor will be less wary of them."

Mrs. Chu rolled her eyes angrily: "Is she so easy to fool when she is the emperor?"

"Of course, it's not easy to believe, if we cooperate, it's not unbelievable, after all, the fifth sister was sent away since she was a child, in the eyes of outsiders, the fifth sister and the Chu family should have no feelings, in short, the fifth sister is right to follow the emperor's wishes."

"Hmph, she is not only a hostage of the emperor, but also a sharp knife stabbing at the Chu family, this girl, you better guard against it, as the saying goes, girls are outgoing, and the water spilled by married girls, don't ruin my Chu family because of her."

"Mother, don't worry, I won't let this happen. The fifth sister is also smart, and she should understand that the Chu family is her real backing."

Chu Zishan looked at the thick melancholy in his mother's eyes, knowing that she was hesitating in a dilemma, how could she not.

No matter what, she will definitely not let the fifth sister repeat her mistakes.

Night.

Chu Shiyu sat on the big red bed, and the hippa on her head had not yet been revealed, waiting for her groom to return.

After a long time, her back ached from sitting down, and she stood up and moved her numb legs and feet.

She lifted her hippa slightly, "I heard that the front hall was no longer noisy, and the guests should have been evacuated."

"The wedding feast is long over." The maidservant said.

"Why hasn't the Ink Owl come here yet?"

She fumbled to the window

, I want to open the window to see, I think this seems to be too anxious and will be laughed at.

She walked back and sat obediently on the bed and waited.

After another hour, she asked, "When is it?"

The maidservant looked at the watch, "Girl, it's already time."

"It's so late."

Chu Shiyu got out of bed again and walked around the room, her messy steps showing her irritability.

Didn't you say that the Spring Festival was worth a thousand gold?

Why didn't he come back, was he busy? There's no way he's going to be busy at this late hour.

Is that he not wanting to see her?

They both knew each other's intentions, and they were already married, so why should he avoid her?

"Ask what the Ink Owl is doing?"

"Yes."

Listening to the maid go out and close the door, leaving her alone in the room, it made her feel even more troubled.

After a while, the maidservant girl came back and said, "Uncle, he ......."

"What's the matter, tell me quickly." Chu Shiyu asked anxiously.

"Uncle fell asleep in the study." The handmaid said timidly.

"What? He, he ...... I'm waiting for him here, and he's asleep in his study, bastard."

Chu Shiyu walked around the house, and finally rushed out of the room, with a Xipa on her head, blocking her vision, and the dark night made her see the road badly, she stumbled and fell several times, she couldn't care about the pain on her body, and ran to the study in a hurry.

Finally, she came to the outside of the study, and wanted to go in but was stopped by the internal officials guarding the door.

"Madam, you better go back, the palm print has fallen asleep, he doesn't like to be woken up the most, what do you have to say to the ink palm print tomorrow."

"No, I have to see him today."

She jumped to her feet and tried to knock on the door, but was blocked by the internal officials.

She didn't give up, and wanted to knock on the window again, but was stopped by the internal officials.

"Mo Xiao, today is our wedding, you actually let me stay alone in the empty room on the night of candles in the cave room, what do you mean, you come out and explain it to me......

She jumped up and down for a long time, and finally sat on the steps so tired that she wiped her tears sadly.

"You said you liked me, why did you do this to me, you bastard, you give me out......

"I'm angry, if you come out now, I'll forgive you, otherwise, I'm really angry, and I can't coax that kind of ......."

She sobbed under her breath, and for a long time she still didn't see the Ink Owl appear. Z.br>

"Madam, it's cold at night, so you'd better go back."

The maidservant also said, "Girl, you better go back first......

"Don't, you all leave me alone, just let me be here, freeze to death, no one will hurt me anyway."

Chu Shiyu lay directly on the steps and cried.

The internal officials and maidservants were very helpless to accompany them.

Chu Shiyu kept crying, and I don't know how long it took, she was tired of crying and fell asleep.

In the study, Mo Xiao sat in front of the door, listening to the cry of his beloved, his heart was like a knife.
