Luo nine needles

Chapter 212

Although it is inconvenient to participate in the palace banquet, it is because the officials and wives are used to enjoying it. In fact, the palace banquet is still well prepared.

After all, it is the imperial city.

For example, there are enough maids to serve the female relatives, and there are gorgeous and comfortable dressing rooms with bright lights, faint fragrance, and warm fire. Many women will come here to rest and chat with their acquainted sisters by changing their clothes.

"The lady from the Lu family said it was convenient, so I brought her here."

A court lady said nervously, pointing to a palace where the dressing room was in front, and then looked at Zhu Chuan standing in front of her.

Zhu Chuan's face was dark and frightening.

At that time, he found that there was no one in his sight, so he rushed over immediately. Fortunately, there were many maids and servants at the palace banquet, and no one could disappear without a trace. Sure enough, when he asked, the maid serving at Lu Yizhi's side immediately pointed out his whereabouts.

The maid was really afraid of Duchasi, so she brought Zhu Chuan over here, and then went to find the maid here and asked if there was a lady like that in the past.

"The lady with only one pearl?"

"Here we are, inside."

That lady is different from other ladies, she only has a pearl hairpin as an accessory, but for the court ladies, that pearl is very valuable, only women in the palace can have it, so the impression is deep on the contrary.

Zhu Chuan's face softened a little, it's convenient to go, he curled his lips, who made her eat so much and drink so much, she didn't stop after sitting down, why was she so greedy, she was also in the Inspectorate, she ate up every time.

Doesn't the surname Lu dare to say her?

Don't know what occasion this is?

Well, the surname Lu didn't dare to say, he said, he just stood here and waited.

Seeing Zhu Chuan standing aside, the maids winked at each other, nervous and curious, who is that lady?Even Zhu Chuan from the Ducha Division came after him to ask questions.

The low voices of women chatting and laughing sounded from here, mixed with "Go back quickly, Mr. Lu San has been invited to compose poetry." Pass.

There was also applause from the Imperial City Banquet over there, overshadowing the drum music and singing and dancing.

Zhu Chuan curled his lips again, because he is good-looking, isn't that Mr. Lu San so good-looking?It's not as good as the governor.

If the governor can compose poetry, everyone will definitely be in pursuit of him.

Um, can the governor compose poetry?

He remembered that when the governor was young, he practiced martial arts diligently, and also read and wrote. General Liang said that the eighth son should be both civil and military.

Zhu Chuan couldn't help laughing, Hachiko...
The thought flashed, and then shivered violently, shaking his head and throwing it away.

The young master warned himself that there is no past, and he is not allowed to think about the past.

He let out a breath, stomped his feet, his feet were a little sore...
Ok?
Sore feet?How long has he been standing?
wrong!

Zhu Chuan stood up abruptly, only to feel the cold wind coming in from his ankles and spread all over his body in an instant.

He raised his foot and rushed towards the hall ahead, and the hall was filled with women's exclamations.

……

……

High in the imperial city, the young man in the blue official robe held up a glazed lantern, and the lantern reflected on his face. He smiled slightly, and at that moment, all the lights seemed to be condensed on him, and suddenly If all the lanterns are eclipsed.

"Lu Hanlin got a glazed lamp from His Majesty."

Accompanied by the waiter's long announcement, cheers rang out at the banquet. Unlike the previous ones, this time the women's voices were the loudest.

Seeing that Lu Yizhi was so popular, the emperor smiled and specially asked him to sit beside him. The little princess also ran over from his mother and concubine, discussing poetry with him in a crisp voice, and the maids lingered around him by pouring wine and giving fruit plates.

"It's nice to be young." Several old ministers also joked.

"Wrong, it's good to look good." Another veteran said with a smile.

"If you look good, you can't stand here." Some veterans said.

The third son Lu has real talent, young and handsome, shining brightly, impeccable.

Lu Yizhi could feel the eyes gathered on his body, and he accepted the discussions around him calmly. He was upright and didn't look around, but there was a strange line of sight from the corner of the wall.

Lu Yizhi turned his head and looked over, and saw a person standing in a corner where the lanterns couldn't reach, as if he had merged with the night, but he couldn't be ignored. His face was covered with a soft light, and the robe on his body was shining with golden light.

Huo Lian.

Lu Yizhi withdrew his gaze, and Huo Dodu could look at whoever he wanted, and it was not surprising to see anyone.

"Lord Lu." The queen turned her head from the front and asked with a smile, "Ah Qing is busy today, did you come alone?"

Lu Yizhi hurriedly said, "With my sister at home."

The queen laughed and said, "Should we let her come too? Miss Xiahou didn't come either, so there is no one to accompany her."

Lu Yizhi hurriedly saluted and thanked him: "My sister is timid, and has no fame or rank. According to the rules, she can't come before the king."

The queen smiled: "Lord Lu is really upright."

How many people have this opportunity and wish to support the whole family.

She glanced at the emperor, and said lightly: "Only by having rules can one be well-rounded. The Lu Hanlin handpicked by His Majesty really has both ability and political integrity."

The words meant something, the emperor pretended not to hear, let the little princess come and sit in his arms, pointing to the front: "Does the lantern look good? Take a good look at the lantern, don't lose sight of it."

The little princess couldn't understand but she nodded happily.

The queen's mouth sank, and she continued to look at the lamp.

The discord between the emperor and empress here was ignored by the people around. Huo Lian also looked away and turned around, because Zhu Chuan came up.

"Captain." Under the swaying lanterns, Zhu Chuan's face was pale, and his voice was like a mosquito, "She's gone."

.....
.....
A gust of night wind swirled and the lanterns swayed. There seemed to be a gloomy gaze looking over. Lu Yi subconsciously looked towards the corner of the wall. Huo Lian, who was standing there just now, was gone.

The figure swayed, and some imperial guards came to cover the emperor with a curtain.

"Lord Lu." Another guard walked up to him, "It's windy, we'll set up a tent for you too."

Lu Yizhi was a little surprised, and was about to say no, but the guards were not asking for his opinion. As soon as he finished speaking, four guards had already pulled up the curtains to surround him.

Is this the treatment in front of the emperor?

Lu Yizhi paused slightly with the hand holding the teacup, and said thank you.

……

……

"I searched all over the women's clean room."

Zhu Chuan said in a low voice, with thin sweat on his forehead.

As for how much panic he caused when he rushed into the place where the women were, there was no need to mention it. It was already Duchasi's kindness not to lock up all the women who were present at the time.

"I also looked for the man's side."

But there was no trace of the woman.

"This lunatic, did he take the imperial city as our capital inspector and wander around casually?"

"Captain, will you mobilize all the imperial guards?"

If that's the case, find the whereabouts of this woman and kill her on the spot.

Huo Lian looked back, the little princess didn't know what she said, and the emperor laughed heartily.

"Don't disturb Your Majesty, today is His Majesty's happy time." He said, looking around the brightly lit surroundings, "Let the guards guard the checkpoint, let our people search around, and don't disturb other people."

Zhu Chuan responded, gritted his teeth and scattered around the imperial city with the knife.

Huo Lian stood there for a moment, looked around for a little thought, and then looked in one direction after a while.

The palace lights in the entire imperial city are bright, the banquet is lively, and the banquet is also lively outside. The arch bridge with white jade railings is crystal clear, and the Neiyu River is also dotted with lanterns, sparkling.

On the Neiyu River Bridge, groups of men, women, old and young, and maids came and went.

"It's frightening to death. People from Duchasi rushed into the clean room just now..."

"Don't be afraid, they are not apprentices, there must be thieves who want to catch them."

"Hey, isn't this more scary?"

The women who stepped on the bridge were talking in a low voice, and there was a burst of hissing suddenly. The talking stopped, and the women's footsteps could not help but also stop, looking at the man walking in front of them.

"It's Huo..."

"Shhhh."

Huo Lian stepped onto the bridge, followed by two guards. Huo Lian didn't look at these women, but turned her head to talk to the guards.

At this time, a group of court ladies also came up, holding various utensils in their hands.

The bridge was suddenly crowded.

The women hurriedly avoided to the right, and although the maids lowered their heads, they shrewdly avoided to the left to make room for the middle.

The two parties each took more cautious steps, and walked head-on with this Chief Huo.

A woman couldn't help but look up.

"It's really beautiful." She whispered to her companions beside her, "No wonder some women fainted when they saw it when they came to Beijing."

Although she didn't mention her name, people on both sides knew who she was talking about, and they pinched her arms in fright.

"Don't look around." "You can faint if you look at it now." "Scare you faint!"

Huo Lian didn't care about the whispers of the women, and only talked to the guards: "Don't be afraid of offending anyone. If you walk around or make noise, you will take them down, no matter what your status is."

The guards answered yes again.

Huo Lian looked forward, not turning her eyes to the maids and ladies who were passing by on both sides.

But I don't know if it's because the bridge deck is uneven, or if I'm holding too many things in my hands, or if I'm just a little nervous. The maid walking at the end of the queue on the left suddenly flickered.

The next moment, a gust of wind seemed to sweep by, and with a thud, the person fell into the Neiyu River under the bridge.

The ladies and maids on the bridge were stunned, and before they could react, another plop was heard, and another person jumped into the Neiyu River.

"Overboard—"

The shouts on the bridge sounded immediately, and the noise scattered.

The girl who just marveled at Huo Lian's beauty covered her mouth.

Although she turned her head hastily, it did not prevent her from seeing the last figure at a glance.

Huo Dudu!
Huo Tudu fell into the water!
