Chapter 235 Extra Story 2 Protecting Him Without Looking Back

Chapter 235
The night was silent for a moment, Qi Yuan held his hands behind his back for a while, and walked towards the wing with muffled steps.

Seeing that Qi Yuan hadn't left, the smiling mother's smile suddenly became bitter, secretly thinking that Miss Jiangfu was too arrogant and absurd.

There was a creaking sound, and the half-burned lamp reflected the woman on the bed, her face in the sleeping room was full of sweetness, Qi Yuan silently got up and went to the test room to wash, then changed into new clothes and went to the bed, there was half an empty seat on the bed, The quilt was taken away, Qi Yuan was silent, got up again and took the thin quilt, put on the couch and closed his eyes, put his arms between his chest and abdomen and closed his clothes to sleep.

In the middle of the night, the candles in the room were about to burn out, and the sudden weight on the shoulders made Qi Yuan raise his eyes in a daze.

There have been many and complicated things recently, he has always slept lightly, and he can leave when there is a slight movement and peaceful sleepiness. Qi Yuan raised his eyebrows between the focus of his eyes, and saw Jiang Chengcheng with disheveled black hair burying his face in the hollow of his shoulder, While breathing, his brows were full of peace of mind and trust, Qi Yuan, who was disturbed, was stunned for a moment, and the restlessness in Tao Hua's eyes gradually calmed down, and with a stiff neck, he slowly leaned back on his shirt.

But Qi Yuan's drowsiness disappeared in an instant, and his gaze did not fall on Jiang Chengcheng's face. Mrs. Qi, whom he was marrying, had a thoughtful look on her face.

Jiang Chengcheng slept soundly, with her cheeks resting on her broad shoulders, her lips opening and closing as if she was raving, her articulate words were vague but stopped clearly in Qi Yuan's ears.

The torch turned into ashes and the candle was extinguished, and with the clear whispering sound, they were covered in Qi Yuan's smoldering peach blossom eyes, and the warmth in his eyes froze, but the woman who was pillowed on her shoulder seemed to have never heard of it. , the tone became lighter in sleep.

"Cousin Yu, cousin Yu, don't leave Chengcheng, okay—"

"Don't, don't—"

Qi Yuan, who was lying on the edge of the collapse, had a slightly cold gaze, and stretched out his hand to decisively push away the woman who was pillowed on her shoulder. The scene of the wedding night in the bridal chamber flashed through his mind, and Tao Hua's face under his eyes turned livid, and he stared blankly. Looking at the lingering candlelight, she seemed to be laughing silently.

Qi Yuan got up decisively and stayed on the bed, ignoring the uncomfortable frowning woman on the bed, put on the boots on the ground, lit a lamp again, hugged the bed quilt, randomly found a place with a tall quilt and nestled on the low couch, With his back to the bed with fluttering curtains, he felt the cold wind blowing through the window and closed his eyes decisively.

The next day, when the morning sun was rising, Jiang Chengcheng slowly opened her eyes, got up and casually glanced at the empty bed beside her, and ordered her mother to wash and dress her...

On the full moon and Mid-Autumn Festival, a palace banquet will be held in Tai Chi Palace as usual.

The moon is as round as a disc, reflected flawlessly in the water, and it also makes the shadows of the palace ladies who are accompanying each other on the palace road in the night appear faintly in the moonlight.

It's still early for the banquet to end, and it's still early for the time to refill the drinks below. The thin maid in the gazebo was drowsy, and the honest, round-faced maid beside her looked anxiously, and poked the thin maid's trembling arm, lo and behold Seeing that there was no one around, he dared to share what he had seen today.

"Hey, don't sleep, let me tell you something funny," seeing the impatience of the thin maid, the round-faced maid trembled, and said anxiously, "But about our young and handsome Dali Temple Shaoqing's."

After saying this, the thin-faced palace lady immediately woke up, and urged the people beside her, her eyes were full of shining stars.

The round-faced palace maid looked around again, seeing the gentle wind blowing past the bamboo forest that was only crackling at night, she finally shrank her neck and said cautiously.

"I just delivered wine at the Tai Chi Palace, and I happened to be serving Mrs. Qi, but she seemed to keep staring at Mr. Lu from the Jingzhao Mansion. It was Mrs. Jiang who reminded her that she was reluctant to part..."

"What?" The thin palace maid was a little annoyed, "Miss Jiang can marry the young minister of Dali Temple, why is she still thinking about Mr. Lu?"

Her tone was a little sour, and she twisted her body in displeasure while pinching the handkerchief.

"Could it be...Could it be, she was still thinking, can't all the good men in the world be taken by her alone?"

"Shhh-"

"Maybe I was wrong, don't take it seriously."

The round-faced maid shrank back, suddenly regretted telling the people around her about this matter, she held the wine jar tightly in her hand, racked her brains to change the topic with great difficulty, but was pulled back by the thin maid next to her.

"Let me tell you, it's not that you read it wrong. I have heard others say that Miss Jiang actually doesn't like Mrs. Qi, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. When she was in her boudoir, she often chased Mr. Lu Yu all over the street. Run, but it's just a cold face every time."

"When the skinny palace lady talked about this, she became more and more clueless.

"Maybe, hmph, maybe Qi Shaoqing was really cuckolded—"

The cool breeze at night conveyed the words to Song Leyi who was dressed in palace attire without revealing a single word, causing the woman's almond eyes to frown slightly, bringing out a sternness that did not match her temperament, and the blurted out 'nonsense' brought her anger Along the bamboo grove, it came to the ears of the two maids, but along the bamboo grove, Song Leyi raised her skirt and looked into the depths of the bamboo grove. The footsteps of the man in the black official robe froze instantly.

Song Leyi's scolding came along with the sound of the wind, and the round-faced court lady got up in a guilty conscience, and hurriedly hugged the wine jar and glanced towards the end of the official road. Annoyed, he hurriedly tugged the thin maid next to him, and hurriedly saluted in this direction.

"Shang... Shangyi, Song Shangyi—"

The round-faced palace lady stumbled, her tone was full of panic, her tongue was tied and she spoke out Song Leyi's identity, but the people around her couldn't understand.

The round-faced maid hurriedly panicked, the rules in the palace were strict, and she was blamed for being slippery and talkative today, and she was so unscrupulous in talking about other people's secrets with others. Now that the palace officials found out, she almost wanted to die.

Song Tao came along with the fragrance of bamboo, accompanied by Qi Yuan's black hem of official robe, Song Leyi's back stiffened for a moment when he came from a long distance, but in a blink of an eye, he sternly said to the two flustered palace ladies in the gazebo.

"The most important thing in the palace is not to discuss people's rights and wrongs. You go to the palace to receive your punishment. If you let me catch you talkative again in the future, you don't have to come to Taiji Palace to be an errand."

After saying this, although the round-faced palace lady was a little aggrieved, she knew that she had caused trouble, and it was Shangyi who was kind enough to be beaten in the end. She quickly bowed and thanked Song Leyi outside the pavilion. On the contrary, it was the thin palace lady who knelt down despite the humiliation. But the seemingly obedient eyebrows and eyes were still somewhat unwilling, and in the end he was about to be dragged away from the place by the round-faced palace lady beside him.

But Song Leyi looked at Lian Nen, the round-faced palace lady knew Song Leyi's identity by chance, but the thin palace lady only regarded her as the same identity as them, so it was a bit shameless to be reprimanded like this, she couldn't help but open the round-faced palace lady's hand, both hands The scrutinizing gaze around Song Leyi's waist fell on the see-through veil on the palace skirt around Song Leyi's waist, revealing the faint waist curve, which made the thin palace lady feel a kind of subtle jealousy, but it showed a bit of disdain in her eyes. Pointing to the round-faced maid beside her, she said.

"It's okay if we talk about it in private. The rules in the palace are indeed strict, but it's not up to some unknown people to teach them a lesson."

"The fat girl is only seeking truth from facts, Qi Shaoqing may just be unable to guard her wife, wearing a hat on her head—"

Before the word 'green' could be uttered, Song Leyi's slap on her face made a muffled sound, which made the maid a little bored.

Song Leyi raised her pink lips, obviously her facial features were still young, but the aura bursting out in front of the two of them at this moment made the thin palace lady who was still arrogant just now speechless, she just buried her head and shrank her neck.
