Concubine Song took Xiao Manxin away with a smile on her face. The mother and daughter carefully avoided the people and horses from the back door of Haoyue Palace and headed to Fuling Palace. Ma Bowen saw each other off in front of the door, and it wasn't until Xiao Yuehuai stretched out her hand to pull him back that she reluctantly looked back.
"Look at the crazy look on your face! Stop looking! If Lu Qiaoyu's spies find out that you came to my palace after leaving Qinzheng Hall, that would be inappropriate. Concubine Song and Sister Manman both know how to stay out of the way. Palace man, you came to see me secretly, why are you so careless?"
Xiao Yuehuai held his ear and cursed: "Is it possible! Do you regret helping me take on this matter?"
Ma Bowen quickly broke away from her hand and cried out in pain: "Sister Ah Huai! You are really willing to be cruel! How can I regret it? I just... I just don't want to let it go! You little girl who doesn't know how to be charming. !”
Xiao Yuehuai hummed twice, turned around and stepped into the hall. She happened to see Su Ying who opened the bead curtain on the side and walked out lightly, and suddenly froze in place.
She had just been focused on welcoming Concubine Song outside, completely forgetting that Su Ying was in the palace...
It's strange that this person actually hid in the side corridor of the main hall?
The moment Ma Bowen saw Su Ying, he happily rushed towards him, grabbed his arm and shouted: "Brother Su! Why didn't I see you just now!?"
The corners of Su Ying's mouth twitched slightly, and he quietly pulled out his arm, took a step back and said: "Concubine Song and the Eleventh Princess probably have something to say to the princess. I'm afraid it would be a little embarrassing if I were there, so That’s why I avoided seeing him.”
He seemed to be explaining to Ma Bowen, but in fact he was specifically telling Xiao Yuehui.
The girl opposite suddenly opened her eyes, dispelling the doubts in her eyes, lowered her head and silently tugged on her sleeves.
Ma Bowen felt the strange atmosphere between the two of them, and was in a dilemma. After a moment of stalemate, he smiled and said: "What... It's almost noon now, and I should go back to the house to serve my mother for dinner. Sister Ahuai? Su?" Brother? I’ll just say goodbye first, huh?”
After saying this, he hurriedly saluted and left, so fast that no one could see his figure clearly.
Xiao Yuehuai raised her head and saw Su Ying staring at her, so she asked, "General Su, would you like to go out with me for a walk?"
Su Ying was a little surprised, his eyes darkened slightly and he agreed: "I will accompany you."
Xiao Yuehuai walked out, followed by Su Ying. The two of them turned right and walked to the imperial garden. They were silent all the way, and the atmosphere was weird and mysterious.
Su Ying couldn't help but ask: "Is the princess dissatisfied with me...?"
Xiao Yuehuai raised her eyebrows lightly and said, "Why would the general think so?"
Listening to her tone, Su Ying clenched his sleeves uneasily and said cautiously: "What happened yesterday was my own decision. If the princess is displeased, I will be punished."
"punish?"
Xiao Yuehuai smiled and put her hands behind her back, and deliberately moved closer to face Lang Jun: "I am indeed unhappy and don't like you crossing the line without permission to make arrangements for me. But can the general withstand the punishment I give you?"
The warm wind was blowing at this time. A man and a woman were standing around a century-old tree. The powder falling from the branches fell together with the yellowing dead leaves. The wild flowers struggling to grow in the bushes beside the path swayed. It made the girl's smile grow deeper.
As she approached him, Su Ying stepped back unconsciously and hesitated: "As long as the princess can calm down, I... there is nothing I can't bear."
Xiao Yue continued to approach with a skeptical attitude: "Is it true?"
Her question was like the last note of a string being plucked, rising for a moment and then falling slowly, hitting the prince's heart and lingering for a long time.
She advances, he retreats.
Finally, Su Ying forced himself into a corner from which he could not escape - his retreat was blocked by the ancient tree behind him. Xiao Yuehuai leaned over, the scent of her long-sleeved feathers spread out, filling his heart bit by bit.
Su Ying's legs were already weak, and his tall and strong body seemed vulnerable in front of the princess. After a moment, he slid down against the tree trunk and sat down, completely motionless.
She seemed to see through his panic and embarrassment at the moment, her fingertips as clear as snow gently hooked his chin, and her charming and bright smile unfolded: "Why are you so nervous, general?"
Su Ying's face under the mask was already red, and the hands hidden in his sleeves were shaking terribly at the moment.
Xiao Yuehuai has discovered that every time this person has close contact with her, he will hold his breath, be at a loss, and completely lose the ability to control himself, which is very different from his usual indifference and alienation.
So she leaned closer and closer, lowered her head and whispered in his ear: "The general has done me such a great favor. If I am really so petty, wouldn't I lose all my princess bearing?"
After saying that, she suddenly turned her face to the side, her soft lips brushed across his earlobe like a dragonfly, and said with a seductive smile: "It's too late for me to thank you, and I won't be angry with you. I just hope that the general will inform me before he acts." , to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.”
Su Ying could no longer breathe.
It wasn't until Xiao Yuehuai stood up and stood farther away that he suddenly took a breath and his chest began to float significantly.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Yuehuai wanted to laugh but felt it was inappropriate, so she had to hold it back. Teasing Su Ying like this made her feel inexplicably happy.
The gentleman under the tree stood up in embarrassment, not daring to look at her. He held his fists in his hands and shouted in a hoarse voice: "If the princess has no other instructions, I have important matters to deal with in the camp, so I will go ahead." "
Su Ying fled in despair.
Xiao Yuehuai finally couldn't help laughing, shook her head to herself, and walked into the depths of the flower forest alone...
The autumn wind suddenly turned cold overnight.
The maple forest next to Ye Jingting is like a large burning flame, reflecting the early glow of the sky. However, in this half of the sky that seemed to be stained red with blood, one continuous cry after another came from the depths of the forest.
Along with the mournful scream, a yellow man scolded in a high-pitched voice: "You despicable little slave, you dare to steal our things! See if you can bear this torture? I have to let you know who is here today." Call the shots!”
In the red maple forest, a child who was only seven or eight years old had his fingers clamped by two small yellow gates with sticks. He was undergoing extremely cruel punishment. His face was pale in pain, his head was sweating, and his eyes were red and he was crying.
As the clamp tightened, he let out a wail. When the clamping stick was released, he cried bitterly and kept begging for mercy.
Standing in front of him was an old eunuch with a hawk-like beak and a ferocious look. He was surrounded by a group of little yellow men, watching the children's pain with cold eyes.
The child shouted incoherently: "Please forgive me, sir! I really didn't steal your jade pendant! This is something my father left for me..."
The old eunuch showed no mercy at all, and even stepped forward and kicked him hard in the chest, spitting: "How dare you say it's yours?! You little bastard! Are you looking for death?"
