*******

Qin Tianjian drew up a good time and auspicious day, from burning incense to entering the Hebi Pagoda, everything has its own process.

The chosen ones went in to copy the scriptures, and at the same time, His Majesty and his subjects had to fast as a sign of respect for the gods.

Tomorrow, no one will want to sleep well, and the ministers will have to get up before dawn, line up to enter the palace gate, and stand in a dark position.

…… Fortunately, Pantheon is not held every year.

Several people were ordered to enter the tower on an empty stomach, first to eat the food presented, and then to bathe and change clothes, gargle and tea, and dress uniformly.

The clothes are azure silk, both men and women, plain and elegant.

A green silk vein is woven around the waist, weaving a moist jade leaf.

When everyone is dressed the same, the difference in appearance and posture can be highlighted.

Everyone was first attracted by Pei Yingxiao, he was used to wearing some light-colored clothes, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, this body was undoubtedly very suitable for him.

Zheng Sijun couldn't take his eyes off it, and his eyes were bright, and he was glared at by the county lord of Yaping, and immediately blushed slightly.

She always couldn't hide her eyes, and the nobles talked about her secretly, and she knew it......

Pei Jingli looked coldly at the sidelines, who was in Zheng Sijun's heart, the family knew it, but he still wanted to marry this woman?

It is not necessarily possible to marry, and the Zheng family does not have this intention at present, which is really ironic.

When Qu Ningxi came out, Chu Chu's face was weak, and she was easily caught by her slender waist.

is different from Lu Yanhua's thin and tall, she looks very soft at first glance.

Weak and boneless, not a grip.

Pei Jingli restrained a lot in front of the people, but his eyes were heavy, and his heart was full of distracting thoughts, and he couldn't wait to step forward and tear up the green silk belt......

Not only was he watching, Wang Jinyi also stared, his eyes moving slightly.

A group of people with different minds.

Qu Ningxi consciously leaned towards Lu Yanhua's side, as the saying goes, common secrets can best draw in the distance between each other.

They can't say how good their relationship is, and even their casual conversation tends to be close to nothing.

But among this group of people, except for those who are not familiar, Qu Ningxi trusts Pei Yingxiao and Lu Yanhua the most.

However, Lu Yanhua's face was expressionless, and there was a faint look of sadness.

"What's wrong with you?" Qu Ningxi couldn't help but ask.

Lu Yanhua glanced over and said, "I'm not full, I'm hungry." ”

Is this hungry ? They had just finished their fast.

Qu Ningxi thought that she didn't have an appetite, and said in a low voice: "Don't say it, just bear with it first." ”

You can't be picky about fasting, otherwise you will be deducted, and your attitude is not good or light, if you say that you are disrespectful to the gods, it is serious.

I'll have to copy the scriptures later.

In fact, Qu Ningxi is also in a bad state, Miss Lu is hungry, she is hot.

Entering the Hebi Tower is not to play, and there is no Bingjian ice basin in it.

Before the middle of summer, the indoor ventilation conditions were average, so it was naturally not comfortable to stay at home.

Several people were led upstairs to the ashram.

The quiet room is very spacious, and it is also divided by a slender screen of silky gauze shadows, which is placed in front of and behind each set of tables and chairs.

The layout of the compartment is made into a neat and tidy way when viewed from the side.

Don't disturb each other, calm down, maybe that's the case in the exam room.

The pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on the table are readily available, and the indoor copper gilt ear cover stove is burning with light sandalwood.

The blackwood shelves are lined with different scripture scrolls to choose from.

With the presence of people from Qin Tianjian, Pei Yingxiao and Pei Jingli gave each other a bit of courtesy before they began to choose scriptures.

Qu Ningxi was the last one, she only took the remaining volume and sat in her place.

The Prince's seat was indeed a separate room, and there was an inner room directly in front of them.

There were seven people left, including the second prince, one on the left and one on the right, in a row, Qu Ningxi was at the end, in a separate column, and there was no one on her right hand.

From the beginning of entering the Hebi Pagoda, they were accompanied by subordinate officials all the way, and they recorded them one by one, and after they took their seats, they began to copy, and the group of people withdrew.

There are so many eyes in the process, it is not appropriate for the family to talk too much, Qu Ningxi didn't even dare to take a second look at Pei Yingxiao.

She was secretly nervous in her heart, and she didn't know what the queen had arranged.

I have something in mind, and it is a little difficult to pick up a pen and write, and the ink is a word difference, and the whole sheet is invalid.

Qu Ningxi tried to gather her mind and focus on the paper.

Sandalwood is quiet, and the room is silent, with the occasional rustling of paper or clothes.

I don't know how long it took, behind Qu Ningxi, someone quietly approached.

Sensing that the figure was approaching, she looked back, thinking that it was someone arranged by her aunt to urge her to act.

She wasn't sure if she was going to speak out now, and offered to add ink to the prince, because she didn't want to be part of it.

Who knew that as soon as he turned around, his mouth was covered, it was Yingchu!

Fortunately, Ying Chu covered her mouth, otherwise Qu Ningxi would have to exclaim.

She approached the door, turned her head, and saw a person standing next to Ying Chu who looked very similar to herself, as if she had seen a ghost!

The woman's facial features looked very similar to Qu Ningxi, and she was wearing an azure dress with the same belt around her waist.

Ying Chu moved extremely fast, pulled Qu Ningxi away, and let the woman sit in her place.

They stepped out of the ashram, but instead of leaving the ashram, they walked behind a painting in the ashram.

Qu Ningxi's little heart was about to jump out, and no one noticed that the last person had changed.

Moreover, there is a secret passage in the quiet room of this Hebi Tower!

What happened? Why is she involved in this?

Qu Ningxi was very nervous, did not dare to squeak, and walked quietly with his head down.

It's a shame that Ying Chu came to take her away, otherwise she probably wouldn't cooperate, it's too scary......

The secret passage was quite dark, and there was a faint smell of mud and dust in the air, and oil lamps the size of beans were burning on both walls.

Qu Ningxi followed the twists and turns, and it took a quarter of an hour before turning out of it.

The moment she saw the light, she closed her eyes and found that there was an unremarkable-looking room outside.

"Yingchu ......" Qu Ningxi continued an explanation.

Ying Chu's expression was a little complicated, and he still smiled at her comfortingly: "Miss, don't be afraid, Your Highness is here." ”

When she said this, Qu Ningxi was even more afraid, everything was unusual, and it often meant sudden danger.

Whether the queen did it or not, the East Palace must have known, and then she didn't report it in time and came to her to settle accounts......

Qu Ningxi was pushed forward, and Ying Chu left from the door of the wing room, closing the door tightly.

*******

Qu Ning flocked to the spot and turned his head to look at the inner room of the wing.

Separated by a fine Mulan five-fold screen, half a figure is faintly revealed, it is Pei Yingxiao.

"Your Highness?"

Qu Ningxi mustered up his courage and walked inside.

She kept organizing the language in her mind to explain that she hadn't reported the news in time, and that she really didn't want to be anyone's promoter......

Turning the folding screen, she saw Pei Yingxiao, and she seemed to smell a medicinal fragrance between her nose.

Qu Ningxi was about to ask, when his eyes touched the prince's face, and he was suddenly stunned.

He doesn't seem right?

Pei Yingxiao sat cross-legged on the soft collapse, his eyes were closed, and the tails of his eyes were red.

No, it's not just the tail of the eyes, he is still dressed in plain clothes, and the light azure color sets off the crimson of the neck piece.

It seems to be extremely hot, and it exudes a cold glow.

Pei Yingxiao slowly opened his eyes, and the bottom of his narrow eyes was unfathomable.

"Come here."

Didn't he have a sudden illness?

Qu Ningxi knew that what she smelled was the fragrance of medicine, and she walked over: "Your Highness, are you okay?" ”

If she is sick, she is not a doctor......

Thinking so, when she stood still in front of the low couch, Pei Yingxiao reached out and grabbed her thin white wrist and pulled it down.

Qu Ningxi fell, fell on top of him, and immediately after, a ribbon fell on her eyes, covering her tightly.

"This ......" she subconsciously raised her hand to tear off the covering.

Pei Yingxiao was close to his ear, his voice was hoarse, and he said, "Don't move, don't move." ”

Qu Ningxi hesitated, and the ribbon blindfolded her eyes and tied them tightly!

Her round eyes widened and she couldn't see anything, "Your Highness? Your Highness, I really don't know anything......"

She had never heard of what the queen had done, and she couldn't grasp the point of justification at this time.

Qu Ningxi panicked for a while and wanted to get up, but there was a hand around her waist.

Her scalp was numb, and she couldn't imagine what position she was in with the prince when she was blindfolded at the moment?

Is she—is she sitting on him?

Pei Yingxiao seemed to laugh and gently explained to her.
