"What are you thinking?"

Suddenly there was a question from Li Yan in his ears, Fu Yan looked at him with confusion, and before he could withdraw his mind from his thoughts, his eyes swept around the hall, and finally stopped on Li Yan, staring at him for a moment before coming back to his senses.

She shook her head and asked, "He, gone?" ”

"Gone."

Hearing the affirmative answer, Fu Yao lowered his gaze again with an 'oh', ready to think about how to deal with the Queen Mother in the future.

Seeing that she reacted so coldly, and then thought about her own business again, Li Yan raised his eyebrows, and reached out to remove the ink block and inkstone in her hand.

Fu Yao looked at him suspiciously again.

"What are you thinking, so engrossed?" Li Yan asked.

Fu Yao thought about it seriously before saying, "This time...... After that, the Queen Mother will definitely be more guarded. ”

When she said this, she looked at Li Yan with worried eyes: "Will they ...... Hurting you? ”

Li Yan's originally slightly serious eyes softened instantly, and he got up and led Fu Yao to sit down on the couch next to him, and then said: "The Queen Mother did this time, it should be the last time Fu Qing'er broke her right arm, so she was forced to be anxious, and when she calms down, she won't be so radical anymore, you don't have to worry." ”

Fu Yao nodded thoughtfully, then smiled at Li Yan, the tips of his fingers gently moving in his palm.

Suddenly, Li Yan felt the feeling like a feather gently brushing the tip of his heart.

He looked at Fu Yao's clear eyes with a smile, couldn't help but get closer, raised his hand and landed on the corner of her eye, and pressed it gently.

Fu Yao looked at him suspiciously.

Li Yan smiled: "In the future, you don't just worry about me, when I'm not there, you also have to protect yourself." ”

Li Yan rarely smiles when he looks at others, perhaps because of his childhood experience, he is used to having a straight face in front of people, and he looks like he is not close to others.

But he actually looks great when he laughs.

Fu Yao stared at his smiling eyes, and suddenly blushed, and then reacted to what he said, and then nodded in agreement.

"What are you blushing for?"

Li Yan got closer, the hand that was originally in the corner of her eye moved down, and gently touched her cheek with a thin callus, and even the tone of his voice was a little smiling.

Fu Yao was like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on, and she was about to get up in a hurry, but she found that she couldn't push it away at all, she looked up with watery eyes, and the next moment she felt a kiss fall between her eyebrows.

She tilted her head slightly, closed her eyes unconsciously, grabbed his clothes tightly with both hands, her lips were slightly open, and her breath was like an orchid.

Li Yan soon found that she was obediently leaning in front of him, her fingertips brushing over her lips, resisting the thought of continuing, and whispered in her ear, "You can open your eyes." ”

Fu Yao's eyelashes trembled, and it took a while before he slowly opened his eyes, looking at him with a crimson cheek.

"I still have something to do at this time, and I ...... when I'm done."

Li Yan didn't finish the rest of the words, just curled his finger and tapped lightly on her forehead, and said, "You can do whatever you want." ”

Fu Yao nodded, and after seeing him get up to deal with political affairs, he lowered his head and bit his lip and smiled.

After that, Fu Yao went to get a book, and turned the pages by the bedside by the daylight outside.

This is a geographical chronicle, which records the customs and customs of various regions, she was stupid in her last life, and because she entered the palace, almost all the time was within the palace walls, and even with this life, she has not had the opportunity to see the wider world.

But these things that cannot be seen with her own eyes are rearranged and distributed in the form of words, and looking at those vivid descriptions of words, it is as if she has seen those vivid worlds far away.

She gradually became fascinated, and even forgot that Li Yan was still on her side.

……

Liu Xinru came out of the Queen Mother's Palace, only to bypass the rockery, and suddenly saw a corner of clothes exposed not far away, Liu Xinru's face changed slightly, and immediately stopped.

"Mother?" Xiangmei stopped and called out suspiciously: "What's wrong?" ”

Liu Xinru settled down, forced her eyes to leave the corner of the clothes, looked at Chunmei and said, "I want to see the scenery here, you go back to the palace and get me a cloak." ”

"But Niangniang, you ...... alone" Xiangmei hesitated.

"I'll be waiting for you here, you can go quickly." Liu Xinru urged impatiently.

Xiangmei hesitated for a moment, then turned around and ran away quickly.

After Liu Xinru saw that Xiangmei's figure was out of sight, she lifted her skirt and went to the depths of the rockery, only to come to a fork in the road, and suddenly stretched out a hand from the side, grabbed Liu Xinru's arm and pulled it inside.

Liu Xinru snorted softly, and the next moment her mouth was covered.

She angrily slapped the man's arm twice before the hand let go of her.

As soon as Liu Xinru turned around, she saw Zhou Zhiwu waiting here, she looked around defensively, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?" It's so close to the Queen Mother's palace, you're not afraid of being caught! ”

"Of course I'm afraid." Zhou Zhiwu said: "But there are many people waiting in your palace now, and it is always inconvenient for me to go in, it is easy to be bumped into by others, so it is more convenient outside." ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Zhiwu comforted him again: "Don't worry, the Queen Mother's people won't come here to check if they have nothing to do, I just want to say a few words to you, and I'll leave after speaking." ”

Liu Xinru was still a little uneasy when she heard Zhou Zhiwu say this, she looked outside frequently, and urged: "What do you want to say?" ”

"Didn't you ask me to figure out if I could get out of the palace before? I recently discovered a secret in the palace, we may have a chance to leave the palace, but after all, you are the emperor's concubine, the queen mother's niece, and suddenly disappeared, there will definitely be a large-scale search, so we must not leave so hastily, and we have to think of another safe way. ”

"What's the secret?" Liu Xinru looked at Zhou Zhiwu suspiciously.

Zhou Zhiwu leaned closer and said in Liu Xinru's ear: "I found a secret passage leading to the outside of the palace in the palace, I don't know when it was built, it seems that it has been some years, I went to investigate it last night, this secret passage should not have been discovered by anyone for the time being, and it can indeed lead to the outside of the palace." I hid the secret passage for a while, and then we left from here. ”

Secret passages?

Liu Xinru saw that Zhou Zhiwu said with a serious face, not like he was telling a lie, and she was even more puzzled in her heart.

How can there be a secret passage in the palace to the outside of the palace?

Zhou Zhiwu saw Liu Xinru's doubts: "This palace has been pruned for at least a few hundred years, and the emperors of all dynasties have lived here, so it is inevitable that there will be some things that were built in the past that we don't know, so don't think about it so much, it's good to leave when the time comes." ”

Liu Xinru thought about it and nodded.

For the sake of now, of course, the most important thing is to be able to leave the palace.

The rest was out of her mind.
