Several small yellow doors saw the old eunuch make a move, and they also stepped forward and tore it up unscrupulously. The child's robe was torn to shreds, bruises were exposed, and his red and swollen fingers stood in front of him, desperately trying to protect himself, but he was beaten more violently.

The old eunuch snatched the jade pendant he was holding in his hand, wiped his clothes twice with pity, and instructed Xiao Huangmen to continue to punch and kick the child, while he stood aside and looked at the jade pendant in the sun, and sighed twice with satisfaction while watching, and then took the jade pendant into his arms.

When the boy was curled up on the ground, gradually losing his ability to resist, the group took his clothes and dragged him to a dry well deep in the red maple forest, ready to be disposed of on the spot.

Just as they were about to throw the dying child into the well, there was a stir in the woods, and someone stopped the scene with a shout. This group of yellow gates immediately panicked, left the old eunuch, and scattered to all corners of the forest to hide.

Ah Lu took four attendants and walked from the west side of the woods, and said angrily: "Han Qi! How dare you disregard human life! ”

When the old eunuch saw someone coming, he panicked and avoided and found himself surrounded by it, so he said cheekily: "It turned out to be the Lu Palace Order? How did you have time to come to the Red Maple Grove? Look at you! Why do you want to be so angry? What's wrong? Could it be that our family teaches a little slave, and the Lu Palace Order will also intervene? ”

"Lessons? Han Qi! Are you blind to me? You're clearly trying to kill him! He was beaten like this, and if he fell into the well again, he would surely die! Ah Lu stepped forward one step and two steps, gritting his teeth.

The old eunuch sneered: "Lu Palace Order? Don't spew blood! Our family didn't do such a hurtful thing. This cheap slave is disobedient, our family is just trying to discipline them! ”

Ah Lu's eyes were cold: "Oh? Who are you? Dare to meddle with the slaves and maids of the Department of Discipline and Accounting? ”

The old eunuch said arrogantly: "Our family is naturally under the order of the noble concubine!" This little cub's hands and feet are not clean, and he dares to touch the things of Chonghua Palace! Even if our family kills him, there is a legitimate explanation! ”

Ah Lu was furious, and directly stepped forward and slapped him, and said, "Dogs fight human power!" The concubine gave you power, and that's what you want to use? ”

The old eunuch was so dizzy that he fell to the ground suddenly, and after reacting, he shouted sharply: "You! Do you dare to hit me? How dare you hit me! ”

Ah Lu was still angry, kicked him a few more times, and scolded: "You are the one who beats!" ”

The old eunuch's face was pale, and he struggled to get up to fight with Ah Lu, but he was suppressed by the four attendants who followed her first, and he screamed angrily: "Let go of me!" Let me go! What are you doing! ”

Ah Lu ignored him and instructed his attendants, "Tie him up for me!" Drag it back! ”

The old eunuch was bound from head to toe by the attendants, and after resisting, he was punched several times, screaming in pain, and dragged out of the red maple forest after a moment of madness.

Ah Lu walked to the half-conscious child, saw the various scars on his body, and couldn't help but sigh: "At such a young age, you have suffered so many crimes? ”

She took off her cloak, covered the child, lightly hugged him into her arms, beckoned the remaining attendants to take the rest of the little yellow gates in the forest away, and rushed all the way to Haoyue Palace....

The Jinwu River is turquoise, and the mountains in the distance are lush and lush. With the hearty autumn breeze, laughter and laughter came from the temple. Xiao Yuehuai was awakened by the laughter, and struggled to sit up from the couch, feeling weak and trembling.

Her lips and teeth were dry, she was panting frequently, and she looked out of the window in a panic that she couldn't stop, only to see a group of little maids lined up, laughing and laughing and carrying pots of blooming autumn chrysanthemums to the palace. She frowned involuntarily, raised her sleeve to wipe the sweat on her forehead, and stared at Xuan Yu in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

The breeze gently rolled up the tulle, and blew the glass beads hanging from the beams clangling.

Ah Lu rushed in, raised his sleeves and clasped his hands to her, and said, "Princess... They have been brought and are waiting outside the temple. ”

Xiao Yuehuai propped herself up and leaned on the couch, lowered her eyebrows and said, "What about Mu Yao?" ”

Ah Lu was stunned for a moment and replied softly: "This kid's hand is badly injured, and the imperial doctor is examining him in the inner hall." ”

The beauty on the couch immediately got up, gathered the robe on her body, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Bandage his wounds well." After a short rest for tea, let him be brought to the temple. By the way, speak to the guards outside, and tell them to stay away from the main hall. In addition, you can wait outside the door when you retreat from the middle of the temple, I have important things to deal with. ”

Ah Lu looked puzzled, puzzled and worried: "Does the princess want to be in the same room with a criminal slave?" Is this too risky? If this sin slave has evil intentions to harm the princess, what should it be? ”

Xiao Yuehuai shook his head, with a clear determination in his eyes: "He won't." The eldest son of the Gusulin clan, even if he wanted to live, would not do such a rude thing. What's more, I don't want to hurt him. ”

Ah Lu wanted to speak and stopped, looking at his Royal Highness looking calm, he swallowed the uneasiness in his heart, whispered "yes", and then took the maids on duty in the palace to the door.

The candlelight in the dark part of the room swayed with the passing wind, and the door of the temple should be closed with a "snap".

At this time, a little eunuch boy who was not yet high in bed lowered his head and restrained etiquette, and walked in tremblingly. He cowered and walked into the hall, his hands wrapped in gauze into zongzi were raised high above his head, groping, bending in the direction of the slanting couch, and said respectfully: "The slave Mu Yao has seen the princess. ”

Xiao Yuehuai had already gotten up and sat on the couch, she said softly and gently, "Raise your head and come to me." ”

The little eunuch boy trembled his shoulders, tilted his neck at a loss, and when his eyes touched the figure in the beaded curtain, he immediately pressed his head again. He was very scared, standing in the huge hall, he always felt that there was a cold chill permeating his bones.

When he was stunned, he suddenly felt a layer of warmth on his body, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that the girl who was still on the couch had come to him at this moment, and covered him with a velvet robe with his own hands. The little eunuch didn't dare to look at her, but slowly sour his nose.

Xiao Yuehuai didn't say anything to him, but looked in the direction of the temple gate, towards an adult man kneeling on the threshold.

The man was dressed in coarse linen clothes, large and small patches could be seen everywhere, but his hair was neatly combed, his arms were half exposed, and his slightly dark skin was marked with shocking blood, as if he had just been whipped.

She took the little eunuch's hand, and quietly came to Na Langjun's side with light steps.

"Lin Lang." Xiao Yuehuai said.
