This is not a cold palace, but it is better than a cold palace.
Even though Concubine Yun moved from the Cold Palace to Shuxiang Palace, she was still a has-been concubine who was not valued by others. Therefore, except for the gatekeeper, no one paid attention to her, let alone served her.
The grasshoppers were the most noisy in the autumn night. Liuli didn't leave here. He couldn't tell whether he listened to her words or if he thought so in his heart.
She lay on Concubine Yun's feet so that she would not be too cold by being close to the ground. Listening to the sound of crickets outside, countless questions came to her mind.
"Taifei Yun, how did I get here?" she asked softly.
Under the candlelight, Mrs. Yun was doing embroidery slowly and without fear of harming her eyes. Her fingers were flying, creating a moving line.
"It's time to come, so you're here!" What she said was always so hard to understand.
"Taifei Yun, people outside say you are crazy, but I think they are the ones who are crazy! How could you be so smart, how could you be crazy?" She muttered, feeling so sincerely.
Concubine Yun smiled and said, "Just know others and yourself, and understand what you are doing!"
As he said that, he lowered his head and looked at her, "Aren't you going to sleep? It's already very late!"
"But I always feel uneasy. Isn't there any movement from the Queen Mother's side?" She thought, if she couldn't be found and the Queen Mother wanted to blame her, wouldn't it be a disaster?
"Some things require your own efforts, while others will naturally be taken care of for you!" She narrowed her eyes slightly, picked up the wick with an embroidery needle, and watched the candlelight dance.
Liu Li saw that the lights reflected on the window lattice jumped and the black shadows flickered, but there was no movement at all outside. Is it really calm like this?
She didn't know that at this moment, Shuxiang Hall was peaceful and peaceful, but outside, even Fengyi Hall, was in chaos.
First of all, the Queen Mother was very upset when her birthday banquet was interrupted. Her beloved pet fell into the water again. The imperial doctor also said that she might have a cold. This was enough to make her angry, but the culprit could not be found.
How could she not be angry!
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, no!"
"Reporting to the Emperor, no!"
I don’t know how many times, the palace guards came to report over and over again, but the answer was negative over and over again.
Following this announcement, the Queen Mother's face became more and more ugly. In the end, she slapped the table and said, "Look! Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we have to find this evil beast for the Ai family! The Ai family still doesn't believe it.
How can a little beast be turned upside down in the palace compound? No one is allowed to leave today unless he is found!"
Suddenly, the faces of all the ministers present, including the concubine, turned green.
I was originally here to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, and I came happily. Who would have thought that something like this would happen.
The key point is that for the sake of a fox, everyone is not allowed to leave. This would be the most ridiculous thing in the world. If word spreads, people outside the palace will not laugh to death!
However, the Queen Mother is very angry now. Anyone who dares to raise objections is simply seeking death.
You looked at each other secretly, and I looked at you, but no one dared to say anything.
Almost all the planned programs were cancelled. A birthday banquet was held in a depressing atmosphere, and everyone was unhappy.
Jun Wuxie looked around and finally stood up, "Queen Mother, this matter is all my fault. If I hadn't properly disciplined Xue Hu, if I hadn't brought her here today, this wouldn't have happened.
Unpleasant things!"
He apologized in front of so many civil and military officials. After all, he was a king, so he gave the Queen Mother enough face. As expected, the Queen Mother's expression softened a lot.
"However, it is getting late now, and the courtiers and concubines are already very tired. It is better to let them go back to rest first and instruct the Imperial Guards to continue searching. I promise the Queen Mother that if they are found, they will not be leniently spared!" He vowed.
explain.
When she looked at him, the Queen Mother was a little suspicious, "Seriously?"
"Seriously!" He nodded.
The Queen Mother seemed to be waiting for his words, and said loudly, "Okay! You have no joke! The emperor must remember your words today. With all the ministers testifying, you cannot break your words!"
"My son understands!" he responded.
After giving him a deep look, the Queen Mother raised her hand and said, "No one is allowed to spread what happened today. The Ai family is also tired. We have returned to the palace to rest. You can all disperse as well!"
After saying that, he turned around and drove back to Cining Palace.
Seeing that the Queen Mother finally relented and left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, they no longer had to stay here.
"Back off!" Jun Wuxie waved his hand, with a somewhat depressed look on his face.
Everyone knows that Xue Hu is his favorite, and it must be very uncomfortable to be forced into this situation now.
Therefore, the Fengyi Hall was soon deserted, leaving only a mess.
Seeing the palace people cleaning up the mess, Jun Wuxie walked out slowly. The lights inside Fengyi Hall were brightly lit, but outside the hall, it was pitch black. It was such a sharp contrast.
"Your Majesty!" Lin'an stepped forward when he saw his master coming out.
He nodded slightly, but said nothing. He walked a few steps quickly and headed in the direction of Xuanyi Hall.
Lin'an didn't say much and followed closely behind. Occasionally, people he met on the road thought it was Linping who was following the emperor.
After entering Xuanyi Hall, the courtyard that used to be quite lively has now become deserted. Without her, it seems that something important is missing, which makes people feel so uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty!" Lin'an called again.
Jun Wuxie nodded, "Yeah! Tell me!"
"The matter has been taken care of. I did everything according to your instructions. I believe no one will notice it!" He reported in a low voice.
"I'm not worried about this. What I'm worried about is what happens next!" He pondered for a moment, "You and Linping will be by my side at all times these two days in case of emergencies!"
"Yes!" Lin'an responded.
"Okay, get out of here!" He waved his hand and turned to look at the bed. It was empty. He was really not used to it.
Lin'an seemed a little uneasy, but after looking at him, he didn't dare to say anything and left.
Yue Liuli...
Thinking of this name, my heart feels warm.
He walked slowly to the bedside, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed the quilt, as if it still had her warmth on it.
He understood that tonight, he was destined to be alone, and the Queen Mother would definitely not give up. A pretentious search was also necessary. He could not go anywhere, he could only stay here, "Waiting for news!"
She sighed slightly and leaned down. The window was open, and the bright moonlight outside poured in, just like her white and crystal clear body.
He has always been lonely and fighting alone. Only in these days did he realize the feeling of having someone beside him.
