Maybe it was because I was used to moving at night, or maybe there was always something in my heart that I couldn't let go of. In short, after Xihonglei lay down to rest for a while, she tossed and turned but couldn't fall asleep. So, she got up and left the room.
Xi Honglei looked up at the gloomy sky of the palace, thought for a while, walked out of the courtyard slowly, and walked aimlessly around Jialing Garden. Without thinking about what to do, Xi Honglei's mind went blank, and he tried to
The cool breeze at night can make her wake up a little. However, the more she doesn't want something to happen, God will not let her get what she wants.
Thanks to her excellent hearing, when Xi Honglei heard the strange voice, she immediately hid vigilantly. But the scene she saw in front of her made her speechless in surprise.
Xi Honglei knew that there was once someone with the same face as herself in this world. That person was Hongjin. But wasn't she already dead?
Xi Honglei looked at the woman with the same face as herself and quickly disappeared from her sight. Xi Honglei's eyes flashed and she quickly ran towards Jialingyuan.
Xi Honglei returned to the room and finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Xi Zichen safe and sound.
Is the person just now really a red scarf? If so, then Yang Xiang and Bai Moyue obviously killed the wrong person back then. If not, it can only be Lin Yi and the others... They are looking for something like this.
What on earth do you want to do when you disguise yourself and look like yourself?!
Xi Honglei is still very confident about the pairing of Yang Xiang and Bai Moyue. So in her heart, she feels that the latter is more likely. Using disguise to disguise the real thing, they already had it four years ago.
Used this. Do you want to repeat the same trick this time?
Xi Honglei accidentally discovered this incident and had to be more cautious than before. He didn't sleep well all night. Xi Honglei wrote a letter immediately after dawn, and then hid it. Waiting for Chen'er
After waking up and eating something, Xi Honglei took Chen'er out of the house.
With the task that Shu Rumei had given to Xi Honglei before, Xi Honglei naturally had a reason to walk around the palace at will. Followed by several people sent by Ran Yunpo, Xi Honglei arrived after a lot of fuss.
In front of a courtyard.
Xi Honglei frowned slightly, turned back to look at the person behind her, and asked: "Where is this place? Why is it so deserted?"
"Hey girl, this is the academy. The late emperor loved reading, so these rooms are filled with books."
"Since it is a place the late emperor liked, why didn't the emperor send someone to guard it?" Xi Honglei asked in confusion.
"This slave doesn't know..."
The maid couldn't answer, so Xi Honglei stopped asking further. She knew where this place was, so she brought Chen'er here specially. However... the person she wanted to see didn't seem to be here.
Just as Xi Honglei was thinking this, the person behind him suddenly spoke again.
"Miss Xi, look, that is the only guard here. I heard that he seems to have been working here for decades since the late emperor was alive."
Xi Honglei looked in the direction of her finger and saw a man in his forties or fifties walking slowly with a broom in his hand.
When Xi Honglei saw him, her eyes instantly lit up. She bent down to pick up Chen'er, and Xi Honglei asked softly: "Chen'er, mother, can I take you to read a book?"
"Okay!" Chen'er nodded vigorously, hugged the tearful neck and smiled.
Xi Honglei hugged Chen'er and walked inside. When she walked in front of the man, she stopped.
Shen Binfeng was sweeping the floor. After seeing someone walking into the yard, he slowly raised his head and looked over. His eyes passed over Xi Honglei's face. When he saw Chen'er in Xi Honglei's arms, he opened his eyes in surprise. Big eyes. But soon, they returned to their original appearance.
"I didn't expect anyone to come here." Shen Binfeng spoke in a low voice, talking to Hong Lian. "I'm blind, I wonder if this empress is..."
"There is no need for the title of empress. I am just a slave running errands around the emperor. I have not yet been destined to be empress." Xi Honglei smiled softly and interrupted Shen Binfeng's words. "I am just bored with the child. When I was walking around, I happened to hear my subordinates say that this was an academy, so I wanted to come in and have a look."
After hearing what Xi Honglei said, Shen Binfeng nodded slightly, turned sideways and made a gesture to ask Xi Honglei to relieve himself.
Xi Hong looked at him with tears, recalling what Mu Yunmeng once said. This is the place where Mu Yunmeng often came to take refuge when he was a child, so Shen Binfeng naturally watched Mu Yunmeng grow up. It's not that Ran Yunpo didn't send people here, it's that he hated this place in his heart. Ran Yunpo didn't order the academy to be burned down. Perhaps, this was the maximum limit.
Mu Yunmeng loved reading when he was a child, and this was where Mu Yunmeng often came. At that time, Ran Fenghe doted on Mu Yunmeng's mother and son, and as for Ran Yunpo and others, they even listened to other people's gossip. There were several children with active natures. Can you sit down quietly and read a book honestly? At that time, Ran Yunpo was forced to come here many times at night, just to surpass Mu Yunmeng, so Ran Yunpo didn't like this place, and because Mu Yunmeng relationship, and hated this place extremely. After he ascended the throne as emperor, he deliberately ignored this place, as if it didn't exist.
Xi Honglei hugged Chen'er and stepped forward. However, as soon as he took a step, Chen'er restlessly tried to break away from Xi Honglei's arms, causing Xi Honglei to stagger and almost fall.
Chen'er jumped out of Xi Honglei's arms as she wished, and stood at Shen Binfeng's feet. Chen'er raised her little face and stared at Shen Binfeng intently. After looking at it for a moment, Chen'er suddenly grinned and smiled. stand up.
"Hug." Xi Zichen opened his hands, indicating that he wanted Shen Binfeng to hug him. The child's behavior made Shen Binfeng stunned. He looked at Xi Zichen and then at Xi Honglei, but he didn't understand. what's going on.
"Chen'er, don't be rude." Xi Honglei quickly pulled Chen'er back, but Chen'er desperately wanted Shen Binfeng to hug him. In desperation, Xi Honglei had to look at Shen Binfeng with an apologetic smile. .
Shen Binfeng put down the broom in his hand, bent down and picked up Xi Zichen. After getting his wish, Xi Zichen smiled proudly at Xi Honglei. Looking at his appearance, Xi Honglei also laughed.
"Grandpa, I like you." Xi Zichen turned to look at Shen Binfeng. After saying this inexplicable sentence, he in turn asked Xi Honglei to hug him. Xi Honglei took Chen'er and looked at Shen Binfeng with strange eyes. , walked to a room, opened the door and walked in.
There were several large Zen wood bookshelves in the house, all filled with various books. The moment Xi Honglei opened the door, he couldn't help but froze. No wonder Mu Yunmeng said that this was his favorite place in the palace. ,I see……
Xi Honglei and Chen'er stayed in the room for nearly an hour. When leaving, she took two books and left the room.
"Can I take these two books away and continue reading?" Xi Honglei waved the books in her hand and asked Shen Binfeng in the courtyard.
"Girl, whatever." Shen Binfeng nodded with a deep look, and then watched Xi Honglei and others leave. After Xi Honglei and others could no longer be seen, Shen Binfeng turned around and returned to the room.
Shen Binfeng walked into the room and carefully took out a letter from his arms. He read the contents with twinkling eyes. Shen Binfeng recalled what he had done to Zichen just now, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
It turned out that he was Mu Yunmeng's son.
After Xi Honglei finished what she had to do, she took Chen'er around the harem. It was said that she wanted to see what the empresses in the palace were doing, but in fact, she just wanted to delay time. .
Walking slowly to the vicinity of the Royal Garden, Xi Honglei looked at several figures in the distance and stopped. After seeing the appearance of those people clearly, Xi Honglei asked the people around him, "Who are those people?"
"Girls, they are all the empresses who have entered the palace recently."
Xi Honglei listened to her answer, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then walked up to them. When he walked in front of those people, Xi Honglei quickly glanced at their faces, and secretly sighed in his heart, Ran Yunpo It was truly a blessing. Then, Xi Honglei spoke softly and said, "Xi Honglei has met several empresses."
As soon as Xi Honglei's name was said, the faces of several people suddenly turned ugly. Although it was their first time to meet Xi Honglei, in the past few days, Xi Honglei's name had already made them I have heard it countless times. In the harem, the story of Xi Honglei is spread everywhere. I heard that she has received the support of the Queen Mother and will most likely become the master of the harem. But...
Several people's eyes were unanimously aimed at Chen'er beside Xi Honglei. Can such a woman with a child really become a queen?
Everyone was thinking, and no one spoke first. Xi Honglei looked at their expressions and movements, and continued indifferently: "I wonder what the ladies are going to do? Honglei has something to say to you. Say, can you bring the red tears with you?"
Several people looked at each other, and finally a woman standing in the middle spoke up and responded: "Miss Xi has already said this, how dare we disagree? Miss Xi, let's go."
When this person was speaking, she always had a faint smile on her face. Her voice was neither soft nor strong, making it impossible to hear her emotions. Xi Honglei looked at her, raised his eyebrows, and followed them We entered the garden and sat down together.
Chen'er has been hiding in Jialingyuan recently. Today she finally had the opportunity to follow Xi Honglei out, running and jumping, and walked a lot. At this time, she nestled in Xi Honglei's arms and behaved well. He looked at the people next to him and said nothing.
"This child is really cute." A woman who was closest to Xi Honglei looked down at Xi Zichen's little face and murmured to herself. But after saying this, she didn't know what happened. Jue took a deep breath, glanced at Xi Honglei in panic, and closed her mouth.
