The bright sun quietly hid in the clouds, and the sky and earth suddenly became gloomy. As the sun slowly moved out, it became bright again.
Gu Rui looked at Xia Lele nervously. She knew about Zhaoyue. Six years ago, everyone in the capital knew that Zhaoyue was chasing the seventh elder brother, but the seventh elder brother refused to marry her, and then she
Instead of pursuing the seventh elder brother, she married a man who had nothing to do.
For a long period of time since then, everyone in the capital has been discussing this matter privately, but no one dared to discuss it openly.
With the seventh prince going out to fight, no one discussed this matter anymore.
She also knew Zhaoyue's temper. After she got married, her temper became more and more erratic, and the servants in the house changed batch after batch.
"You want me to help you fly the kite?" Zhaoyue's fingers were clenched in her sleeves, and she looked coldly at Xia Lele, who was hurting her eyes, and felt that her chest was about to burst.
Xia Lele nodded and smiled happily, ignoring the gloomy Zhao Yue in front of him, who still raised the hand holding the kite in the air.
With a low hum in her heart, Zhaoyue took the kite in her hand and was about to fly the kite into the sky when Xia Lele suddenly grabbed her clothes, shook her head and said, "You can't fly it here."
After saying that, he took Zhaoyue to an open space in the backyard and said with a smile: "Wait for me here."
Zhaoyue endured her gloomy anger and watched him run away and come back again, and said impatiently: "Do you want to let him go or not?"
"Okay, sister, help me put it up." Xia Lele nodded, with a cute smile on his lips. Anyone who saw it couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch his little face.
Zhaoyue snorted, glared at him, and slowly put the kite up into the sky. Seeing that the kite had slowly risen into the sky, Zhaoyue turned around and handed the kite to Xia Lele, but his figure was nowhere to be seen.
Li's movements suddenly stagnated, and Xia Lele's voice suddenly came from behind, "Sister, I'm here."
Zhaoyue turned around and saw him waving to her. She threw the kite in her hand and walked towards him. After taking only a few steps, her center of gravity suddenly dropped, and a sudden coldness hit her whole body.
Zhaoyue felt angry and her whole body was soaked in water. She was sitting in a pit dug by people. The water had turned yellow. When she suddenly crawled out of the pit, she felt the blood all over her body.
They all stagnated in an instant, and only anger coursed through the body.
Gu Rui ran toward Zhaoyue in a panic, almost fainting, feeling like she even wanted to die, and tremblingly said: "Gege, are you okay?"
A kind of anger penetrated her heart like a sharp arrow. Zhaoyue felt that her breathing was full of anger, an anger that could almost kill people, an uncontrollable anger. She raised her hand and slapped Gu Rui. Gu Rui's body
Xiaoqiao suddenly fell to the ground like a fallen bird, his face was already red and swollen, and there was blood on the corner of his mouth.
Xia Lele's smiling face suddenly froze. She rushed to Gu Rui's side and shouted loudly, "Sister Gu Rui, are you okay?"
Gu Rui shook her head palely and staggered to her feet. Xia Lele supported him carefully, glared at Zhaoyue who was beating the person, and said angrily: "Why did you hit the person?"
Zhaoyue glared at Xia Lele fiercely, raised her hand and threw it at Xia Lele's face. A sudden force in her hand grabbed her hand, and her anger made her blush and glare at the owner of the hand.
"Zhaoyue, Le'er is still a child. Even if he does something wrong, it is still a lesson from his parents. If I hadn't stopped you in time, would Le'er have been able to withstand your slap?"
"Qi Yi, you are too polite to such a cruel and ruthless woman, and you would actually do such a heavy hand to a child."
Zhaoyue stared at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of her, grimacing with a guilty conscience, knowing that she looked miserable, and stumbled away in a hurry.
Xia Lele suddenly curled up her lips, jumped into Qi Yi's hand, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately you're here, otherwise, Le'er's face would look like Sister Gu Rui's."
After saying that, he looked at Gu Rui with self-blame and said, "Sister Gu Rui, it's all Leer's fault. You shouldn't have teased her, which caused you to be slapped. It hurts."
Gu Rui hurriedly shook her head, "Your Highness, Gu Rui is fine. It's just that Your Highness, His Highness and Fujin are not at home, and Zhaoyue Gege is not someone we can offend. If you tease her again, I don't know if she will be so lucky again.
"
When Gu Rui was talking, her eyes glanced at the man in white next to her from time to time, and she felt like she was bathing in the spring breeze. Although she was not as beautiful as His Majesty the Seventh Prince, the aura exuding from his body made her heart beat.
Lin Xin coughed at the side and looked into Gu Rui's eyes. He couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth. No matter where he went, there would be women secretly glancing at Qi Yi, let alone the girl in front of him.
.
Qi Yi carried Xia Lele to the courtyard and sat down. He scolded him softly and said, "Why are you so naughty and making fun of others?"
"Leer hates her, hates her for being mean to sister Gu Rui." Xia Lele pursed her lips.
"Le'er did the right thing, she should tease her a little bit." Lin Xin smiled happily at the side. Thinking of Zhao Yue's embarrassed look, she smiled even more happily.
When Xia Lele heard this, she grinned at Lin Xin.
"Lin Xin, you will teach Le'er." Qi Yi said with a calm expression, turned to look at Le'er, and said seriously: "Although what you did was indeed wrong, Le'er, seeing her embarrassed look, it's still quite cool.
I'm happy." After saying that, he raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.
Gu Rui couldn't help but chuckle. She thought he was trying to reason with Xia Lele, but she didn't expect that he would say this. Hearing her laughter, Xia Lele struggled to get out of Qi Yi's arms.
He came out, took Gu Rui's hand, and said hurriedly: "Sister Gu Rui, your face is swollen, let's go find a doctor."
Gu Rui was frightened and waved her hands hurriedly, "Your Highness, this slave's injury is not a problem."
"No, it was Leer who made you injured." He raised his head stubbornly.
At this time, Qi Feng and Yan Yan, who had returned to the palace, saw Qi Yi and Lin Xin in front of them with surprised expressions on their faces. They hurried over and Yan Yan rushed towards Lin Xin. Lin Xin also saw her. The two of them.
They immediately hugged each other and laughed, and Yan Yan hugged her excitedly, "Lin Xin, why didn't you tell us in advance that you were coming?"
"Isn't this just to give you a surprise? I didn't expect Xia Lele to give us a surprise."
Yan Yan let go of Lin Xin in shock, and when he saw Xia Lele, he couldn't help but be shocked: "Xiao Rui, what's going on with your face? Why is it swollen like this?"
Qi Feng suddenly stood up from the stool and said coldly: "What happened when I was not here?"
They told Gu Rui to keep an eye on Leer before going out, but they didn't expect that her face would be swollen like this, with distinct fingerprints on it.
"This is the surprise I'm talking about." Lin Xin looked at Gu Rui's blushing face and said hurriedly, walked to Gu Rui's side, raised Gu Rui's lowered head, and pointed at the expression on her face.
The red handprint said: "This is what Zhaoyue left. The fingerprints on her face are deep enough. If we hadn't arrived in a hurry, there would only be a deeper fingerprint on Leer's face."
Before Lin Xin finished speaking, Qi Feng's face was already full of cold and sullen anger, with a frightening light flashing in his eyes. He stood up with a flick of his sleeves, turned around and walked towards the door. Yan Yan immediately reached out to hold him.
, was startled when she touched his cold fingers, and hurriedly said: "Qi Feng, are you going to find Zhao Yue?"
Qi Feng pursed his lips and remained silent. He could not tolerate the people he cared about most being threatened.
Yan Yan held Qi Feng's hand, turned to look at Gu Rui, and said, "Xiao Rui, go down and apply some medicine first."
Gu Rui nodded, her eyes hurriedly passed over Qi Yi's face, and then retreated.
Yanyan turned and glared at Leer, Xia Lele hurriedly ran over and held her hand, whispering: "Mother, Leer... Leer just saw that the person was very mean to Sister Gu Rui, so
Only then... did he tease her and let her fall into that pit."
Yanyan followed the direction of his finger, and there was a pit that could fit one person, with dim water still inside. Thinking of Zhao Yue's embarrassing appearance after falling into it, he couldn't help but glared at Xia Lele, and just whispered
She scolded: "Le'er is not allowed to be so naughty anymore, otherwise my mother will not take care of Le'er."
Xia Lele nodded immediately.
Yan Yan turned to look at Qi Feng, whose face was still ashen, and said softly: "I don't want you to go find her, I will be jealous. Even if you go to find her to cause trouble, I don't want you to go."
Qi Feng was slightly shocked and turned to look at Yan Yan. Her eyes were clear. He nodded, put away the darkness on his face, and held her hand.
Qi Yi's eyes fell on Yan Yan quietly, and then he gently moved away, but it was so difficult to move, and whispered: "Seventh brother, forget this matter. If this matter hadn't been done by Leer first
If you make fun of others, they won't slap the maid. Zhaoyue has been pampered by her father since she was a child, and she looks so embarrassed. Can you not be annoyed?"
Yan Yan saw Qi Feng pursed his lips and said nothing, but the expression on his face softened, and he hurriedly said: "Qi Yi, Lin Xin, you must be tired after traveling for so long."
Lin Xin looked tired and complained: "I have been traveling day and night these past few days, and my bones are almost falling apart."
Qi Yi suddenly let out a low laugh and quickly stopped laughing. Lin Xin glared at him angrily and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Then go and have a rest first. I'll call you during dinner." Yanyan said hurriedly, and ordered the maid to clean up the two rooms and take them down to rest first.
Qi Feng returned to the room and remained silent. Yan Yan smiled, walked to sit next to him, rested his head on his shoulder, and said softly: "Do you know why I didn't let you go?"
Without waiting for his answer, Yan Yan continued: "She is also a poor woman. She has been pampered by the emperor since she was a child. The emperor has given her everything she wants. Now that she is in this situation, she naturally feels resentment in her heart."
"If you and Le'er are hurt in the slightest because of her, I will never let her go." Qi Feng lowered his head and pressed her lips together.
