The concubine is enchanting: the favorite princess

Chapter 18
Feng Yao asked Zi Ying to prepare the sedan chair, while she hurriedly changed into casual clothes, and asked Lu Luo to fill up the stove with charcoal, ready to leave the palace.

While doing things according to Feng Yao's orders, Luluo reminded in a low voice: "The princess is leaving the palace? But the emperor..."

"Father just told me not to walk around in the palace, and didn't say that I was not allowed to go out to admire the plum blossoms. Besides, Xin Jieyu has been here, presumably the father just said it casually at that time, and wouldn't really restrain me of."

What Feng Yao said is not unreasonable.One story that the emperor only warned Feng Yao in a low voice in the Yunqi Pavilion, and did not issue a decree to restrain his feet.Second, Xin Jieyu will not stop speaking for herself, so Xin Jieyu's coming to deliver cakes is a message of lifting the ban.

Luluo felt relieved.He prepared some food and honey juice, packed them up, and spread thick cotton wool in the rattan basket to keep warm, and then followed Feng Yao out of the palace.

The street has been covered with snow. Although the snowflakes in the sky are not big, the wind is faster than before.The sedan chair carried by four people moved extremely slowly in the wind and snow.

"Princess, are you going out of town?" Although Lu Luo was wearing a rabbit fur hood, her face was still flushed by the wind.As soon as he spoke, the wind choked into his mouth.

"Go to the Jinyuan Temple in the south of the city." Feng Yao also felt cold, hugged the heater tightly in the sedan chair, kept stamping his feet, and still felt his toes slowly becoming numb.

"Princess, with such a strong wind, why don't we wait for the snow to stop before we go?" Zi Ying also moved over tremblingly, if she continued walking like this, her legs would be frozen and she would not be able to take a step.

"Out of the city is the forest, most of it is covered by wind and snow, don't worry about it." Feng Yao meant to insist.

The bearers had no choice but to obey their master's wishes and walked south of the city on the "creaking" snow.

Ziying stomped her feet heavily as she walked, the north wind blowing away her good feelings towards Moli, she just gritted her teeth and complained secretly why Moli chose such a weather to ask the princess out.Even if they could bear it as slaves, how could the master's golden branches and jade leaves endure such wind and snow?

Lu Luo silently followed beside the sedan chair, walked for a while before feeling something was wrong, ordered the bearer to stop the sedan chair, raised a corner of the curtain and whispered to Feng Yao: "Princess, don't leave again. Just think about it, my son-in-law." How can you be such a ignorant person?"

Fengyao also felt cold in the sedan chair, but he was only thinking about enjoying the plum blossoms with Mo Li, and ignored the others.Now Lu Luo suddenly opened the curtain, and the cold wind mixed with snowflakes blew in like ice swords.Feng Yao was shocked by the blowing, and his mind became much clearer.

Taking a look at the gloomy sky outside, Feng Yao also felt something was wrong.Mo Li really doesn't seem like such a person who doesn't know how to measure, not to mention whether he should ask him out in this weather, but he doesn't have the temperament to leave the letter and leave.

Even when his arm was injured, he still sent himself out of the door and watched him leave.But now that we are talking about appreciating plum blossoms, why do you let yourself go out of the city alone?
Thinking of this, Feng Yao hurriedly ordered the bearers to turn around and go back to the palace.

It's just that before the sedan chair turned around, someone asked loudly in the wind and snow: "But the sedan chair accompanied by Sister Luluo?"

The person who came called Lu Luo, obviously knew who the owner of the sedan chair was.

Lu Luo didn't dare to neglect, she turned around quickly and greeted her, and saw a man in his early twenties, who looked like a servant, holding a letterhead and handing it to Lu Luo, just said "letter from son-in-law", turned and left.

"Hello..." Lu Luo wanted to stop him and ask him, but the man walked very fast and was very familiar with the street, turned around and turned into the alley, and disappeared.

Luluo squeezed the letterhead, fearing that there was something bad inside.But after pinching it twice, it didn't feel like it was packed with a paper letter, and I didn't know if my hands were numb from the cold, so I couldn't figure it out?
Feng Yao vaguely heard that person mention "son-in-law", and when he lifted the curtain, he saw that Lu Luo was still pondering over the letter slip, and said: "Open it, a letter slip cannot hold any hidden weapon."

In front of Fengyao, Luluo lifted the letter from the seal, looked inside, with a look of surprise.

"What is it?" Feng Yao's heart sank, and he felt that this matter was weird and difficult to understand.

Lu Luo shook her head to express her puzzlement, and handed the letter to Feng Yao for her to read by herself.

Feng Yao felt that the signed letter was extremely light in his hand, and when he poured it into the palm of his hand, only a thin thread came out.It's just that the filaments are hard to touch, it should be silk coated with turpentine.

Broken strings!Feng Yao's heart trembled violently, and he twirled the filament lightly, making sure that it was indeed a zither string.But such a length is undoubtedly a broken string.

Zi Ying also came over curiously to have a look.For a moment, none of the three could figure out why Duanxian was in this letter?
"Don't turn around, let's continue to Jinyuan Temple." Feng Yao frowned lightly, already had an idea in his heart.Order the sedan chair to move on.

But Luluo panicked for a while, she broke out in a cold sweat, put her hands on the pole of the sedan chair and persuaded: "Princess, the future is unknown, so I can't go."

"It'll be fine." Feng Yao smiled slightly: "If you want to use Moli as a threat, why bother? This is just to lure me, so it's arranged like this."

"Since the princess knows that she led you there, do you still want to go?" Lu Luo actually wanted to say: Is the son-in-law worth the princess's risk?
"This matter is not necessarily related to the son-in-law, it should just be used as an excuse, or to deceive people. It's just that the weather is wrong." Feng Yao let out a sigh of relief, and asked Luluo to put down the car curtain, implying that everything is as usual, don't panic.

Lu Luo had no choice but to let go of the sedan chair and continue on the same road.

A group of people carried the sedan chair until they reached the woods outside the city, only to feel that the wind and snow were covering them.But everyone's hearts couldn't help feeling heavy, even if the wind was still, the coldness penetrated into their bones.

A winding path in the woods leads directly to Jinyuan Temple. The gate of the temple is closed, and there is no one in sight.

Zi Ying wanted to go over and call the door, but Feng Yao called her back just a few steps away, and ordered: "Let's get off the sedan chair, the guards stay behind. Lu Luo and Zi Ying follow me to the Meilin at the back to have a look."

Feng Yao tightly wrapped the mink fur cloak around his body, but he walked slowly.Luluo and Ziying quickly followed around.

There is a dense plum forest on the back mountain of Jinyuan Temple. At this time, the plum blossoms are in full bloom. There should be many people who appreciate plum blossoms on weekdays.But at this time, there is no one in the wind and snow.

Feng Yao walked through the plum forest until a high wall at the end, walked along the wall to a wooden door, and signaled Ziying to come forward and knock on the door.

Ziying's hands were extremely heavy, and she slapped the wooden door with a "slap".After a while, footsteps were heard inside.Then the wooden door opened, and it was Mo Li who opened the door.

Seeing that it was Mo Li, the cold wind that filled her stomach just now turned into a sarcastic remark, and she yelled regardless: "My son-in-law, it's really fun, let us meet you all the way through the wind and snow."
