Ji Chi sneered in his heart. If Ning Xun was a cruel person by nature, and he summoned her into the dormitory and killed her quietly when he saw her, she would have wondered how these people could save her.

On the face, he only blinked slowly, as if he was simply curious: "Can you help me get out of trouble?" How many of you are there? ”

"The slave doesn't know, the girl can go and ask the son."

While speaking, the two of them had already walked to the gate of the East Palace, which led directly to the outside of the palace.

The guards guarding the door exchanged a look with the people of the palace, nodded in greeting, and let the people out without even asking.

The chime was silent.

Ning Xun has never paid much attention to these chores, not to mention that there are not many palace people in the entire East Palace, except for those who often follow him, he is afraid that he will not be able to take care of others.

But does he know that his East Palace has long been like a sieve?

The palace people only sent her to the door and stood still: "The girl just walks straight forward, and she will meet the person sent by the prince to pick up the girl." ”

"The prince won't find out, so the girl can go in peace."

After walking for a while, she was greeted by a lady with a kind smile: "This girl, there is no one on the street for the New Year, are you shopping alone?" Why don't you come to the eldest mother's house to eat a bowl of dumplings, warm and warm. ”

As soon as the steps of the chichi stopped, the eldest lady approached and lowered her voice: "Mrs. Song is waiting for the girl inside." ”

The place he had chosen was not far away.

Zhichi nodded, followed the eldest lady through a shop, walked out of the back door, and suddenly opened up in front of him.

It is a small yard, not big, although the furnishings are exquisite, but also the specifications of ordinary people, it is better to be festive, a string of red lanterns has been hung in front of the house, the lanterns are colorful, from time to time you can also hear the sound of children frolicking and firecrackers, the taste of the year is very full.

The eldest lady led her all the way to the door of the house, and then went to the front by herself.

He stood at the door, slowly exhaling for a moment before he looked up and pushed the door in neatly.

The moment she pushed open the door and saw it clearly, she was stunned.

It was warm inside, and there was even a heat wave when the door was opened. It seems to be lit with a refreshing scent of herbs and trees, and this heat is not too stuffy.

The round table was full of delicately shaped dishes, and Song Rongying sat at the round table in a satin concubine-colored jacket. Shen Che was standing aside, leaning over to serve the soup.

Seeing her come in, Shen Che glanced over, turned his head and filled the soup bowl in his hand, and put it next to Song Rongying, before he straightened up and looked at her, and said softly: "Are you back?" ”

It's as if she's just been away from here for a while.

At first glance, he looked straight at Song Rongying, and before he could say anything, his eyes turned red first.

Song Langying saw the person coming clearly, and immediately got up by the table, but as soon as she took two steps forward, she saw that the rank pool almost ran in front of her.

When he hugged her, he was cautious, as if he was afraid that he would be broken.

It's really much better, not only can I stay, but I can also walk, my face is a lot more ruddy, and I have grown some flesh on my body, and I am no longer skinny.

Although she could see a few points from the handwriting of the letter before, and Qingdai helped her keep an eye on it, she didn't see it with her own eyes, and it was always a layer behind.

Zhichi choked and called "mother", Song Rongying sniffled, looked at her left and right, and her still hoarse voice contained wetness: "Tell my mother to see, I haven't seen you for a year, why do you seem to be thin?" Are you still used to living in the palace? Have you been wronged? ”

Rankie smiled and shook his head, "Everything is fine, I just miss you too much." ”

Shen Che pulled the chair back for the pool, "Sit down and say." Mrs. Song's body still can't be tired. ”

Song Rongying seemed to remember something, and looked at Shen Che with a little gratitude in his eyes: "When the prince said that there was an arrangement tonight, I thought something was wrong, but I didn't expect to take Nan Nan out of the palace." ”

Shen Che looked at the chichi meaningfully, "At that time, I didn't know if she would come, but it was too early, but I was afraid that I would rejoice in the air." ”

Song Rongying looked at the title pool with some doubts, and the title pool immediately picked up: "Tonight's palace banquet, the prince is afraid that it will be my turn to be on an errand." ”

After speaking, she looked at Shen Che and got up to bow to him: "Lao Shizi bothered, I thank Shizi here." ”

The etiquette is thoughtful, polite and distant.

Since she came in, she has always been called "the son of the world".

Shen Che smiled at her, and very naturally took a chopstick eight-treasure duck for her, and said gently: "Between you and me, why bother to say thank you." ”

My mother is still here. Ji Chi frowned slightly, and couldn't help but glance at his mother's reaction - his words were too easy for people to think too much.

Fortunately, my mother is now tied to her heart, and she shouldn't notice anything.

Ji Chi raised his eyes, "Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, Shizi doesn't go to the family banquet?" ”

"It doesn't matter." He poured her a glass of wine, and took it, but he didn't drink it.

She learned a lesson last time, and it is easy to make mistakes when she drinks.

Especially in front of Shen Che, she didn't dare to lose her sobriety.

The three of them had a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together.

Although Shen Che is here, it is not convenient for the mother and daughter to speak, but there are many things that Song Rongying can't know, so he can only talk about some trivial things in life.

Song Langying asked her about her life in the palace, and when she couldn't answer, Shen Che helped her fill in a few words, and skillfully circled it.

The atmosphere of this meal is quite harmonious.

What's more, he hasn't seen his mother for more than a year, no matter what, I'm already very happy to see each other.

It's just that she's always been vigilant about Shen Che, and it's inevitable that she won't know how to eat, so she eats less.

Seeing this, Shen Che served a bowl of soup for her, and as soon as she subconsciously wanted to refuse, she heard him say, "Whose craft do you taste." ”

She turned her head and saw her mother looking at her with a smile, and immediately reached out to take it.

Shen Che chuckled: "Drinking this soup, I inevitably think of the days when I was a child in Jiangnan. ”

Song Rongying sighed softly, as if with emotion: "I didn't expect you to be so big in a blink of an eye." ”

He didn't say anything, just lowered his head and slowly drank a whole bowl of soup.

When she finished eating, the dishes were withdrawn, and melons and fruits were served to spend the night.

It means that you really want to keep the New Year here.

Shen Che went out for a trip, as if something was wrong.

Zhichi finally seized the opportunity and immediately grabbed Song Rongying's arm, "Mother, are you really okay in the Chi family?" Did they embarrass you? ”

"No one is embarrassed," Song Rongying looked at her gently, "Mother, everything is fine, and the illness is much better, you can see it, can't you?" ”

Title Chi glanced outside—she didn't know when Shen Che would come back, so she simply attached herself directly to Song Rongying's ear and said quickly: "I'm in the palace...... Bumped into something I've seen. In short, the Chi family is not credible, including Chi Qingxuan. There is a little maid named Qingdai in the kitchen, who is the one next to me before, if there is anything wrong with my mother, if necessary, you can find her. ”

Song Rongying didn't ask why, and responded directly: "Okay." ”

"Nan," she gently stroked her forehead, "you are so uncertain tonight, why?" ”

Rank Chi's gaze dodged for a moment, "No, mother." ”

"I was very uneasy, like I was afraid of something." She paused, "Are you afraid of Shen Shizi?" ”

"How so!" Zhichi denied it and said with a smile: "What am I afraid of him doing?" It's just that the identity is different, compared with when I was a child, I respect him more now. ”

Song Rongying was persuaded by her, "Yes." It's really not as close as when I was a child. ”

Zhichi retorted in a low voice: "When I was a child, I didn't necessarily have to be intimate. ”

Song Langying smiled slightly.

She was from the past, and she could see what was hidden in Shen Shizi's eyes when he looked at her.

But Shen Che, the child, has been thinking heavily since he was a child, and now that he has grown up, even she is a little stunned when she looks at him. is such a prominent lintel, even if he treats her sincerely, how good can he be to her because of his identity and his temperament?

She would rather her people be free and stay away from these big families.

But you always have to ask the child what he means.

"You don't like Shen Shizi?"

As soon as he was about to speak, he habitually glanced outside, choked on his throat before he could say anything, and swallowed it back.

When Shen Che went out, the door was not completely closed.

Therefore, Song Langying could not see it, but from her, she could see the stone wall a short distance away from the door.

A lamp was lit next to the stone wall, and the light was soft.

Shen Che leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, looking at her quietly, as if waiting for her answer.

Just now he received news that the prince said that he was unwell and had returned to the East Palace.

It's about to be the time of the child.

It was such a coincidence that he was unwell at this hour.

Ning Xun returned to the East Palace a moment before the child.

He had been preparing to leave for a long time, and the wine of the emperor was drunk a little hurriedly, a little drunk.

He hurried back just to accompany her to keep the New Year.

But there was only cicada clothes in the house, who had long been unconscious.

The wine and food on the table have long been removed, and there is no trace left.

The moment I found out that she was gone, I panicked at first.

Until the palace people knelt on the ground, they all said that they had not seen Miss Song come out of the house, nor had they heard any movement in the house, let alone approached by unknown people.

Ning Xun closed his eyes, his drunkenness dissipated a little, and his reason began to return.

He smiled silently, let the palace people go back, and sat quietly in her room for a while before he came out and asked Huaihe calmly: "Who is guarding the palace gate tonight?" ”

Huaihe reported a name, and he thought about it for a while, remembering people.

Sure enough, it was Ning Zhen's person.

When he went to the personal expedition, he left in a hurry, and many things were not arranged in advance, and when he came back from four years in the frontier, the East Palace had already been infiltrated.

In addition to Ning Zhen's people, there are also many eyes and ears of the emperor - he can't clean it up in a big way, so he can only replace the people he commonly uses with cronies step by step, and then dispose of some of them, and the rest should be unaware and secretly watch.

It was his negligence tonight.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, he didn't expect Shen Che to be bold enough to pick her up tonight.

Why, when you send people back before dawn, you think you can hide it from you without knowing it?

The killing intent on His Royal Highness the Crown Prince became heavier and heavier, Huaihe took a step back carefully, not noticing that he raised his hand in the night and beckoned, let alone noticed that there were two figures behind the eaves who silently received the order, and then dissolved into the night in an instant.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, a guard, drunk and accidentally fell into the river and drowned, which is also common.
