Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

Going out from the side door of the main hall, it is a long promenade, winding and winding, both sides of the promenade are full of lush flowers and plants, although it is late, the red light from the lantern under the eaves is not enough. Illuminating those plants and trees can only faintly smell the faint fragrance of plants and flowers in the night.

In this almost pleasant environment, the maid took me to the end of the promenade, passed an arch, and entered the back garden.

There are fewer people here than before, but they are still very decorative, red lanterns are still hanging under the eaves, and bright red silk is wrapped around the branches, and even some grasses that do not bloom this season are tied with silk. Flowers made with colored paper, everything looks so perfect.

The maid brought me here, and then blessed me, then retreated.

I stood in the flowers, and after waiting for a while, I smelled a faint aroma, turned around, and a crimson figure came out of the arch next to it.

She walked slowly, and the waves waggling on her red embroidered shoes seemed to be sent by the wind, and even her sleeves rose from the flowers as she flicked the flowers on both sides. Countless stars are fireflies hidden in the branches and leaves, flying around her, illuminating the red-colored clothes, and also suffocating the beautifully-looking face.

She walked in front of me, and the slight sneer that floated on that extraordinarily beautiful face was as familiar as ever, coldly: "You're here."

"..." I looked at her for a moment without speaking.

In front of this woman is the bride tonight's wedding party, Princess An Guo Pei Yuanzhen.

Tonight, the last person I want to see.

Speaking of which, I have never felt that Pei Yuanzhen was beautiful and moving, and there are some beautiful people, but after all, there are three thousand beauties in the harem. There are too many beauties, and her faint beauty is not so dazzling, just tonight, Although the twilight was deep, and although the red light from the far and near lanterns was not enough to illuminate everything, I still felt her radiance. The delicate makeup face had never been so bright and beautiful, and the cheeks on both sides were red. Kasumi dyed her eyes as if they were bright pearls, with clear black and white, and exceptionally clear; her lips were also thinly sketched, with a clear outline, like a full cherry, tempting people to want Go picking.

Looking at her like this made me feel a little lost for a moment.

Compared to my disappointment, she looked extraordinarily glorious, and her eyes were as bright as if they were glowing at any time. She looked at my faint expression and said, "You are not surprised at all, why, you know it is me Looking for you? "

I nodded slightly.

"How do you know?"

I didn't want to speak, but I said silently, "The maid who came to call me, the fat powder taste is too heavy. If there is such a heavy powder powder smell, it must be followed by a fat powder taste master. And tonight, there will be heavy makeup, and only the hostess of the wedding party. "

"..."

When I was talking, she kept watching me silently, the more I said, the colder her face.

But after I finished speaking, she smiled instead, but there was no smile in her eyes: "You are still as smart as in the palace."

"..."

"No wonder my brothers are unwilling to let go of you."

"..."

"Unfortunately, your cleverness doesn't seem to help you."

"..."

I knew she wouldn't have any nice words, but even if she was psychologically prepared, she didn't plan to continue listening, so she said tiredly, "Is there anything you want me to do? If not, I will go back. "

Having said that, I was about to turn around and leave, and heard her voice come from behind--

"Of course I have something."

The sound is a bit cold.

I thought about it, stopped and looked back at her.

She was standing in the middle of a flower and leaf, and the moonlight was dim, shining on her, as if she had covered her with a layer of faint, translucent silver gauze, making her whole figure a little hazy, but she His eyes were extremely sharp, and even at this moment, it looked like the blade of a sword.

But she surprised me when she spoke.

"What are you going to do?"

"..."

I frowned subconsciously, watching her not speaking, and Pei Yuanzhen looked at me like this, and couldn't help sneering: "My maid just came to report to me, the people from Xichuan came, and the people who came It's Wu Brother. "

"..."

She looked at me with sharper eyes: "Don't you tell me, because of your intelligence, you can't see anything?"

I bit my lower lip and finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Until now, I know that silence can't go on. Looking at her exceptionally sharp eyes, I slowly said, "Sure enough, it is you who played a role in the middle."

She raised her brow-like eyebrows and looked at me.

I also looked at her: "Nishikawa and the court, got in touch, right?"

She smiled: "You see it?"

I said, "His Majesty the Emperor is a rigorous person. He will be rewarded for his merit, and he will be punished if he has done so. His Royal Highness Princess is now honored as Princess An Guo and has the privilege of opening the government in Yangzhou. Such a favor can only be achieved; but Her Royal Highness has been keeping filial piety for her maiden sisters in these years, and has not participated in anything in the court. There is only one thing that is imperative for Her Royal Highness. "

Pei Yuanzhen laughed again, but this time, her smile was a little smug.

Even a little provocative.

Of course, I also understood her meaning. At that time, when Shen Rou wanted to completely suppress me, she justified me in the presence of the civil and military officials and the emperor. I met in Hu Xinting, and she asked me not to see Liu Qinghan again, because at that time, it was impossible for me to get rid of the emperor's control. I was too angry, and ironically, the forces behind her and her would sooner or later be detrimental to Liu Qinghan. It was already the beginning because Master Fu and his apprentice encountered assassinations when they entered the palace.

But now she made a choice.

She made a choice between the forces behind her and Liu Qinghan, and it was not one or the other, but a win-win choice.

I smiled slightly, with a look of burnout: "The princess can make such a choice, it is indeed a blessing to the court, and it has benefited all peoples."

She didn't feel anything about my flattery, but looked at my eyes sharply: "What about you?"

"..."

"What are you going to do?"

"..."

I looked at her lightly: "His Royal Highness has made a choice, why bother with my intentions?"

"I know your position in Xichuan, and how much power there is under your control. If Xichuan is going to move, it's better to be single-minded than to be independent, and--" She looked at me, her eyes leaking out After a bit of chill, "I also know that Yan Gongzi values ​​you very much. He will make important decisions and will definitely listen to you."

"..."

"So I wonder, what would you do if this thing went on?"

Somehow, when I heard her, I felt a sting in my heart.

I suddenly remembered what Yan Qingchen said to me before leaving Chengdu-he told me that he was a practitioner in Xichuan.

He also told me that Nishikawa was facing a crisis.

Until now, I still don't know what kind of crisis it is, which can make him pay so much attention, but now I can vaguely feel that it must be a very serious crisis, even far beyond my imagination. Qingchen's temperament, he would not easily establish contact with the court.

It is very likely that because of the crisis, he was arranged by Pei Yuanzhen to get along with the court peacefully.

As a result, my doubts deepened.

What kind of crisis is that anyway?

Looking at my frown, even a few folds, Pei Yuanzhen looked at me for a while before saying, "You haven't answered my question."

"..." I looked up at her.

"What would you do?"

I thought about it and said, "I will do nothing."

She frowned: "What?"

"I can do nothing." I repeated it again, looking at her still shocked expression, and said lightly, "What I can do is not more than that, as for the rest, it is no longer mine Ability range. Although Yan Qingchen is my younger brother, but I have not been with him these years, he is still the owner of the Yan family; although some of the people in Xichuan have listened to me, I have not been in Xichuan for so many years, and they have done the same Very well. "

"..."

"They have their ideas and practices, and I will not intervene."

"..."

At first Pei Yuanzhen's face flashed with astonishment, even with a look of anger, but slowly listening, her face calmed down.

Immediately after I said the last sentence, she said, "What about the second brother?"

"..."

"You are his wife. Is it in Jinling that you are not in charge?"

"..."

When I heard this sentence, I couldn't help laughing, and laughed out loud.

She frowned immediately.

After I laughed, I felt a deep burnout, as if I could not open my eyes. I did not intend to continue the conversation, and said lightly, "His Royal Highness, my words are all over Here. Goodbye. "

After speaking, they turned to leave.

But as soon as I turned around, she sounded behind her with a cold voice--

"I have one more word to say."

"..." My footwork stalled and stopped: "What?"

"You know what I'm going to say, but I think it's better to be white." She seemed to have taken a step forward in her speech, and she had reached behind me. The cold voice seemed to be in her ear: "You I also know that today is the day when he and I are overjoyed? "

I said coldly: "Congratulations."

"Congratulations don't need to be, and I can't afford your congratulations," she said in a colder tone than me. "I only tell you one thing, Qinghan has completely forgotten you."

"..."

I was silent for a long time, and then slowly turned my head to look at the face with exquisite make-up, which looked extraordinarily beautiful in the moonlight.

I sneered: "It doesn't seem like you need to tell me again."
