Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

The next day, I slept late at night. There was no movement except the wind was stronger. Last night Xie Xuan was still suppressed, or he himself was suspicious, and did not speak up. After breakfast, Huazhu and Yunshan walked in with ink and paper.

They both looked at my slightly red eyes and whispered, "Ms. Yan didn't sleep well last night?"

I wasn't so angry, "Did your master make trouble, can I still sleep?"

They looked at each other, and Huazhu said softly: "Miss Yan, don't be angry, in fact, the master is too careful. I heard that the master and Pei Gong met yesterday to discuss the matter. Let you make any mistakes. Yesterday, the master was probably too nervous, so I will look at the blindfold. "

I looked up at them: "Pei Yuanxiu really said that?"

"Ok."

"..."

I was silent for a while, then smiled, "Okay, I know."

They put two things on the table, and looked at the brazier, which was almost full of ashes, and said gently, "Ms. Yan, the son also said that you should not be too exhausting. You have written too many sutras recently It ’s bad for you, right? "

I smiled: "It's been a few days since I wrote it, and I won't write after this time."

"Then you still need more rest."

"I see. I listen to you."

They nodded in relief and turned around.

I wrote for a long time at my desk. Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, I really felt that my eyes were a little bit astringent, so I put my pen and walked to the door. Huazhu and Yunshan immediately greeted: "Miss Yan is going out?"

"Well, go for a walk. You're right, I've been too much lately, and it's a bit exhausting."

"But I'm going to eat soon."

"It's not time yet. I'll take a walk and eat a little more when I come back."

"So, we'll stay with you."

"Okay."

It's not too cold today, it's just that the wind is a bit strong.

These days, the weather is getting warmer, and some trees in the palace have become more and more lush, and even some early spring flowers have bones, and a sense of spring is springing up. As I walked and admired the scenery, I did not feel that time was passing. Soon, I walked to a long crossroad. This is a side hall leading to the front. In the past, the emperor's banquet was often there. Larger, but not a formal state banquet.

As soon as I walked by, I saw a team of little palace ladies passing with a dinner plate in their hands.

Fortunately, these people are very cautious. Everyone's eyes are staring at the things in their hands as if they are pulling a line. No one noticed that we were standing here, and I didn't rush to them.

When they passed by, I counted them, and there were quite a few.

Is there a banquet ahead?

And it seems that the scale of the banquet is not small, it is definitely no less than ten people.

I was about to go forward. Two guards came out and stopped me. They also politely bowed down and saluted me: "Miss Yan."

I nodded. "Are you in front of me?"

They glanced at each other and did not answer me, but at this time, the other side walked over to a team of little maids, holding a jug and a fruit plate in their hands. Even if they don't answer, I can see that it must be someone who is hosting a banquet and the specifications of the banquet are not low.

I smiled and looked at them both: "Why, don't you let me know?"

"..."

"Not a good look?"

"..."

These two people probably don't have any clever thoughts or articulate words, they just leaned over and stood in front of me, the meaning was already obvious, they didn't intend to tell me, let alone let me pass.

Huazhu and Yunshan stood behind me and looked at them strangely.

There was a confrontation between the two sides for a while, and one of the guards said, "We are just here to guard and not let people pass. Since Ms. Yan is not invited, please go back."

It turned out that it was only due diligence.

At this moment, a group of people walked at the intersection ahead. They were led by Gong Liu. At a glance, almost all of them were strange faces, but with a closer look, there were a few familiar ones, with General Zheng Tong by his side. Lieutenant General, there are attendants who follow Xie Houqi and Iron Whip King, and Han Zitong and Gerdi's maids ...

Generally speaking, the servants and maids are to follow the master at the banquet, to serve the master, and to protect the master. These people appear here. Obviously the people who participated in the banquet today are their masters, but the place where they came is the design. The side hall of the feast, the place to go, is a place for the rest of the people.

In other words, they are not allowed to stay at the banquet.

My brain was moving fast, but at this time I could not allow me to turn around and leave, because after the people passed the intersection, the father-in-law saw me. He froze for a moment, and after setting his mind, he immediately came over with a smile on his face and said haha, "Miss Yan is here."

I smiled: "A little tired, so I came out for a walk."

After that, I deliberately looked into the probe inside, but in fact standing at the crossroads, I could n’t see anything except a few feet long neck, but the two honest guards were very dedicated and came forward again One step stopped me: "Miss Yan, please don't go any further."

Upon seeing them like this, the father-in-law said immediately, "If you can't see, see back."

They listened to each of them and felt that they were too careful. They hurriedly lowered their heads and stepped back.

Gonggong Liu said with a smile: "Miss Yan don't mind."

I smiled, "They are afraid of being embarrassed by me."

"That's right, inside this imperial city, inside and out, who dares to embarrass Miss Yan?"

"Oh?"

"I just know that Ms. Yan is feeling dreary in the past few days, so I won't let these things bother Ms. Yan's heart. The son's intentions, Ms. Yan understands."

I blinked, and then laughed, "Then, I'll take this love. Today, let's treat me as if I haven't been here."

"It's natural, and slaves haven't seen anything."

After he had said it, he raised his hand, meaning to send me away. I said with a smile, "Thank you father-in-law."

Then he turned and left.

When I left, I seemed to hear the old man's long breath.

Huazhu and Yunshan followed me. Both of them were a little bit puzzled. I could feel the two of them frowning in a lawsuit, but I did n’t dare to speak easily. I also waited until I returned to the palace, and asked, What about? "

"Leave today."

"Oh? That is to say, the banquet was just held there. Your master didn't attend?"

They looked at each other again and murmured, "It seems."

"..."

It's no wonder that these two girls don't know anymore and will follow me all the way.

I smiled and said, "It's not easy to tell your master about this."

The two of them were actually a little bit shy. Obviously, the two little girls had no psychological preparation and no such experience to conceal their masters. I said with a smile: "Pei Gongzi naturally has his intention. .I do n’t think it ’s a big deal, but if I did, I ’m afraid that Master Xie would think too much, it would be bad. ”

They both looked at me for a while and said softly, "Oh."

I smiled again: "In fact, it doesn't matter to tell him."

After speaking, he stopped talking, and was at the table, and after a while, the people in the royal dining room brought meals.

I do n’t know how many precious dishes will be served at the banquet over there, but the food delivered to me will not be inferior to the dishes of any banquet, but today, I have no appetite, facing a half bowl of crystal rice, but sip Can't eat anything.

The banquet now being held in the side hall, there is a problem!

That's why I'm hiding from me.

I think back to the attendants I just saw, although most of them do n’t know, but the few familiar faces have made me judge that those who attended the banquet are generally those-Han Zitong, Xie Houqi, Iron Whip King, Zheng Tong ...

There are people from Shengjing and people from Jinling.

It is said that the people on both sides were still in trouble a few days ago. Although he killed a little lotus and stabilized the scene, the turmoil on the side of Xishan Camp also seemed to have calmed down temporarily, but in such a short period of time, both sides can be abandoned. Former suspect, sit down and have a good time?

Even if they really watched Pei Yuanxiu's face sitting together ...

But why hide it from me?

That day I killed Xiaolian and deprecated Han Ruoshi, so I was here. Why today is obviously just a testimony, but it does n’t let me get closer.

Is there anything I can't tell you?

I pushed the edge of the bowl hard, and my nails became white. There was one thing that worried me the most and one that scared me the most. It was always hidden in the deepest part of my heart, but now, because of a wine feast , Faintly appeared his head, and even slowly formed in my heart.

With a snap, I patted the tableware on the table.

|

One afternoon, I did n’t go out again, but I could n’t calm down to write another word. After the evening dinner, I listened to the wind outside. Although no one came to me to say anything, but I knew in my heart, That wine feast is not over yet.

I faintly felt that if the banquet was over, something must have happened to me.

I was waiting quietly.

Time passed quickly, and after a while I knocked on two more outside. I thought I could wait a little longer, but because I did n’t sleep well last night, my eyelids seemed to be heavy, and I kept falling, and finally even myself I couldn't hold it anymore. I simply lay down on the bed with my clothes and covered my chest with a quilt. If anything happened, I could get up immediately.

As soon as one lay down, I couldn't resist the drowsiness that kept flowing like a tide, and I closed my eyes slowly.

But in his sleep, he was also uneasy.

There seemed to be a pair of eyes watching me in the dark, and it was just an invisible gaze that made me feel like sitting on a needle, and I couldn't even dream.

I opened my eyes at once and saw the dim candlelight, and the eyes in my dreams were close at hand.

Pei Yuanxiu was sitting next to the bed, looking down at me.

My heartbeat was about to stop, and I bounced off the bed all at once, but he stretched out his hands and pressed my shoulders, pressing me back on the bed.

My throat is hoarse and I'm about to say, "You--"

"Don't be afraid, it's me."

"..."

"I'll see you."

The candlestick was about to burn out, and the faint light from the candlelight, which was almost swaying, illuminate his half of the contour, and of course I knew it was him.

But I didn't expect that he actually came to sit next to my bed in the middle of the night!

My heart was beating like thunder, and my breathing was messed up, but his breathing was smooth and long, and because he was too close, he could clearly feel his breath, and I immediately smelled it Strong wine.

Did he come here immediately after getting off the banquet?

But why did he drink so much wine?

No matter who I am facing, I am least willing to face a drunk. At this moment, my brows frowned, and I whispered, "What are you doing ?!"

Although he was full of alcohol, he seemed to be sober, his voice was the same as usual, and he was even gentle in normal times.

He looked at me quietly and said, "Don't be afraid, I just came to see you, and by the way, tell you something."

"what's up?"

"After ten days, my ascension ceremony will be held."

"..."

My breath suffocated.

The battle has ended, they have entered the capital, and Pei Yuanzhang has been forced to leave. This day will come sooner or later. I have been prepared.

However, when I really heard him speak, it still made my heart beat.

I was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Is it?"

"..."

"Congratulations then."

In the dim, his eyes flickered slightly, neither bright nor drowned in the dim light, but the temperature of that gaze gave me the illusion of being approached by a candle and almost burning my skin.

I retracted subconsciously, but found that I had nowhere to run.

The soft mattresses hardened like ice at this time.

He is about to ascend the throne. Is the wine banquet today just to discuss it?

If so, there is nothing wrong with it. Regardless of the disagreement between Jinling and Shengjing, after all, it is a major event. Both of them also helped him lay down the mountains and enter the capital. Even if it is a celebration party, it is understandable.

But since this is the case, why should you hide me? If it was to hide me, what did it mean to come to me in the middle of the night and tell me?

Feeling my eyes flashing, he looked at me and whispered, "What are you thinking?"

I lowered my eyelids and remained silent for a while, then said gently: "I already know this, you can go."

"..."

"I want to rest."

"One more thing, it's about you," he said.
