Jiaochu

Concubine Xiao scolded Lu Yu to shut up and scolded Ye Lingjue for being stupid, blaming everything on him and degrading Ye Lingjue to nothing.

Ye Lingxi asked coldly, "You said that the second brother is useless and that everything is his fault, so what does your mother do to the second brother?!"

Concubine Xiao sneered: "What do you know? If it weren't for me, he would be where he is today. Who do you think you are? You are worthy of questioning me here. Don't think that I don't know who you mother and daughter are. Your mother and concubine." You are just a vixen, pretending to seduce the emperor, you are also a little vixen, and you are even more of a harm!"

She said coldly, "At least my mother-in-law is worthy of my father." Her sharp eyes seemed to penetrate people's deepest secrets.

Concubine Xiao looked panicked, "What do you mean?" The next moment her expression changed again, her expression was cold and stern, "What do you know?"

She said: "If I guess correctly, you have never liked the second brother, otherwise you would not be so cruel to the second brother. The tiger's poison does not even eat its seeds."

"Did you see it?" Concubine Xiao smiled coldly, "So what? I just disciplined him more strictly, and that was for his own good. A loving mother often loses her sons, so I raised him and worked hard for him. Planning, this white-eyed wolf, had he known this, I might as well have strangled him to death."

She said: "You know why you treat your second brother like this."

Concubine Xiao narrowed her cold eyes, stared at Ye Lingxi's calm and cold eyes, suddenly smiled, and seemed to be saying to herself, "You don't know, you don't know anything." Then she sneered, "Don't I think I am locked up here now and I can't do anything to you. Don't think that your little cleverness can fool everyone. One day you will fall down. When the time comes, let's see if your little cleverness can save you. I'll wait and see. ."

Lu Yu made a gesture of invitation and said, "Your Majesty is going to rest. Princess, please come back first." Ye Lingxi turned around and left, Lu Yu followed behind to see her out, and apologized, "Since His Highness is gone, your Majesty's mood It's always been bad, so please don't take it personally, princess." He made another gesture of invitation and took her out the back door.

On the way, Ye Lingxi asked Lu Yu from whom he learned martial arts. Lu Yu replied, "The master asked someone to teach the slave. The master originally wanted the slave to take care of the master, but the master has not liked being served since he was a child. The slave usually just helps the master." Clean the study." She asked Mrs. Xiao if he was still in the capital, and Lu Yu replied yes.

After sending Ye Lingxi away, Lu Yu went back to report to Concubine Xiao. Concubine Xiao asked Lu Yu to find a way to get out of the palace. Lu Yu said, "Madam, don't worry, I will find a way." Concubine Xiao sneered, "Now everyone is gone, and I am just a noble concubine in name only. I've become a useless chess piece, what else can I do? It won't take long before the emperor forgets about me and this palace will become a cold palace." Luyu comforted her, "My queen, don't think about the bad things first, look. For the sake of His Highness, the Emperor will not treat the empress like this. The empress should take good care of her body according to the instructions of the imperial doctor." Concubine Xiao said angrily, "I am not sick!" Lu Yu said, "The empress should rest early, and I will go and make the bed. ." Concubine Xiao clenched her palms tightly, her nails digging into her flesh, as if she was about to bleed, she would never sit still and wait for death!

Here, after Ye Lingxi quietly returned to the dormitory, she did not go back to the dormitory to rest. Instead, she stood quietly by the swing in the yard for a while, thinking about what Concubine Xiao said just now. She didn't know what those two sentences meant. She didn't know anything. She felt that her second brother's life experience might be more complicated than she thought, and what kind of secrets and conspiracies were involved. A question suddenly popped into her mind, could the fire be one of them? A guess came one after another, and she felt her heart suddenly stagnated, and then jumped suddenly. If the person was still alive, where would he go?

But are people really alive?

She heard Xiao Anzi say at that time that the fire was not put out until the next morning. By then, nothing was left, even the thick pillars of the palace had collapsed. The guards searched for a whole hour before they were able to find the fire on each floor. A person was found under the rubble, and it was already burned beyond recognition. When she heard it, she didn’t know how she felt. She didn’t know whether her head suddenly went blank or whether her soul was out of body. She didn’t react as if nothing happened. , when he came back to his senses, he had already walked several steps away.

So far, she has not gone to Yuyuan Palace to take a look. She doesn't dare to go, and she can't listen to others talking about it. It's like a thorn in her heart, and it hurts when she touches it.

She stared at the half-circle moon in the night sky. The cold air in the night gradually surrounded her and penetrated into her bones. She slowly squatted down and let the coldness flow in her blood, as if she was torturing herself again. She was so cold every day. Every strand of her hair turned cold, and her hands and feet were stiff and numb from the cold. Suddenly she saw a faint light flashing in front of her, light green, like the light of fireflies flickering. She thought she had seen it wrong, and her heart It's not summer yet, where did the fireflies come from?

Her curiosity was aroused by this light green light. She slowly stood up and walked over with a slight limp. The light green light flew up from the green leaves and flew in front of her. She raised her The moment her hand and fingertips touched, the light green light turned into countless streams of light and enveloped her. She heard a voice saying in her ears: "Axue, it's time to wake up."

Something seemed to rush into her mind, and she had a splitting headache. When the light dissipated, she fainted and fell to the ground. Before she lost consciousness, she seemed to see someone walking over...

When she woke up again, Ye Lingxi found herself lying on the bed, still covered with a quilt. She opened the bed curtain and looked outside. It was her bedroom, but she couldn't remember how she came back last night. , I get a headache just thinking about it.

He He and Ling Ding came over to hold up the bed curtains and help her get up before fetching hot water for washing.

While dressing up, Ye Lingxi asked the two of them whether they slept well at night. She said that she seemed to hear something outside last night. She wondered if she had heard it wrong in her dream. She asked the two of them if they heard it. Hehe and Lingdang both shook their heads. Yesterday, The two of them slept well that night and didn't hear any movement. Naturally, they didn't know that she had gone out quietly.

After breakfast, Ye Lingxi walked around the yard, seemingly looking for something, and finally stopped next to the swing. She still remembered that she was squatting in this place, and then... she couldn't remember what happened next. The harder she tried to remember, the more headache she got. There were also auditory hallucinations in her head. It was not her voice. Sometimes it was buzzing and sometimes disembodied. It went straight into her ears. She raised her hands to cover her ears, but it was no use.
