Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

The door remained closed.

This time, my panic became a little flustered, and I hurriedly grasped the bronze knocker and patted it twice harder, and the sound of chirp seemed even more harsh in such a night.

However, the door was still closed.

At this moment, the two guards stood behind me, and when they saw this scene, they were a little shocked, and hurried forward: "Madam, this is--"

I still held the bronze knocker in my hand and bit my lower lip without speaking.

They glanced at each other and hurriedly said, "I'm afraid the gatekeeper in the sky is late, so I go to bed early."

"Mrs. Don't worry, let's help his wife wake him up."

Having said that, the two of them stepped forward and patted the door vigorously, and said loudly, "Open the door, quickly open it!"

"Open the door, Madam is back!"

"Open the door!"

I stood in the middle of the door, listening to them slamming the door, the two doors kept shaking, the sound was more harsh, and even shocking, but no matter how they patted the door, they slammed the door again. The door rang, and the door remained closed, with no sign of opening.

A gust of cold wind suddenly passed through my back.

I glanced subconsciously, and the doorway of the house was completely black. There were only two white lions carved with stone lions standing on both sides of the steps. There was no one on the wide street in front of the door.

I was silent for a while. When I looked back, I saw that the two guards were already anxious, and even one of them kicked the door fiercely. The door banged, and it seemed that the latches inside were slightly loose, but still No one came to open the door.

They both became more anxious.

At this moment, I said gently: "Forget it, don't knock."

The two of them froze and looked back at me: "Madam."

"It looks like the gatekeeper has gone elsewhere. If you fall asleep, you should have woke up like that."

"Then we--"

"You go down first."

"what?"

Both of them were shocked, and immediately looked up at the dark surroundings, and said in a hurry: "Madam, we dare not go down like this. The son also ordered before, if the lady returned to Jinling without safety, our Human heads cannot be saved. "

I smiled slightly: "But am I not coming back safely now?"

"can--"

"The door is not open."

"But we dare not leave our wife like this."

I ca n’t tell, they are very faithful, or, in other words, what Pei Yuanxiu said made them dare not be disloyal. After thinking about it, I said, “I do n’t want you to leave me, but I went to see you across the river today. The emperor, there are a lot of troubles in my heart, and I want to take this opportunity to think about it. It is so lively inside, I'm afraid that the sons haven't slept yet. After a while, he will go back to the inner courtyard. Seeing me no longer, he will naturally come out to find of."

"But this--"

Without waiting for them to say anything, I already smiled and said, "If I say, it's not even useless."

The two of them were still hesitant, but looking at my slightly chilled eyes, they seemed to feel that the door was closed and shut me out, which made me angry. The two of them are neither staying nor leaving now. After hesitating for a long time, I was finally frightened by my gaze and could only fist: "Then, we'll listen to his wife."

Then I waved my sleeves: "Come on."

They both turned around and walked away.

This time, I was alone at the gate of Jinling House and the two cold white marble lions.

The night breeze blew from one end of the long street, rolled in fine sand and fallen leaves, and learned that Soso was flying to the other end of the long street.

I stood under the long street and paused for a while before I said, "Come out."

The wind stopped.

Around, there was no sound at all.

At this time, a tall and slender figure slowly came out of the night and came to me.

The man stunned at me: "Meet the young lady."

I said with a touch of faintness and a little tiredness, "Xiao Gongzi, see you again."

He looked up and looked at me with a smile. It was the gentle Jade-faced man, the second figure of Xishan Academy, Xiao Yusheng.

I wasn't surprised that he would show up here, but before he spoke again, he smiled and said, "It seems that this time, it is really going to be Xiao Xiaozi."

He smiled: "The young lady commanded not to speak hard."

Talking, I also smiled at him.

A few days ago, on the night of the wedding of Pei Yuanzhen and Liu Qinghan, on the red boat, I saw him attending the wedding with Pei Yuanfeng. He inexplicably said something to me. I also thought that was just a joke, but I did not expect that it should be today.

I said, "Did Xiao Xiao say that to me on the boat the same day, did Xiao Gong anticipate these things?"

Xiao Yusheng laughed and said, "The young lady is uplifting, and she will practice for decades in the future, and she will not be able to foresee the future like this."

"Then why did you say that to me?"

Xiao Yusheng said with a smile: "The bride is Her Royal Highness, who has been registered as Princess Anguo. The groom is the emperor's favorite. Take back the most powerful brother Liu from the South. How many people would like this wedding?

"..."

"Since many people are reluctant to see it happen, and these people are not little-known people, then something will happen sooner or later."

"..."

"If Princess Long has an accident, Brother Liu must be involved; if Brother Liu has an accident, the young lady will certainly not sit idly by. And in this Jinling House, the young lady will be constrained everywhere. No matter what she wants to do, she will have more than enough power. So— "He looked at me with a smile:" Students should be driven. "

Hearing that, I sighed.

There are some very simple things that outsiders can see through at a glance, but unfortunately, the authorities are lost.

Xiao Yusheng went on to say: "Actually, the students had always wanted to visit the young lady in the past two days, but—the young lady was fortified in the inner courtyard, and she was not even close to passing the message. Fortunately, now they are making a big noise. The janitor was also accounted for by his master, so the students had the opportunity to show up to see the young lady. "

What's going on inside them?

I only frowned, but didn't ask much, after all, the business was not finished yet.

I said, "Then you should know what I mean."

Xiao Yusheng nodded: "Students understand."

"The emperor's meaning is very clear. He cannot allow someone to go to jail, because it is not clear what he said, it will cause dissatisfaction among those who are the emperor.

"Students understand."

"The best thing is to show your identity, that's all—" I glanced back at the closed door, sighed softly, and then said to him, "There is no room for the emperor and emperor."

"Students understand."

"Now that you understand, you need to prepare well." I said, and asked, "Does Yuanfeng know this?"

"Gongzi knows this. The students came out to see the young lady tonight, and he also knew that he would fully cooperate with the young lady's actions."

I nodded: "The day after tomorrow is the final decision. You only have one day tomorrow."

"Miss please rest assured."

"..."

Although his answers are simple and clear, it seems that he came to me after thinking matured, but he reassured me, but I was not so easy to rest assured, after all, it was not an ordinary thing, but Liu Qing Han wants to go to the guillotine. If he can't be rescued in time, it is really possible--

I can't believe that scene.

I can't let that happen!

And it's not just saving him.

I said, "You rescue him back to Xichuan, in case he dusts him--"

Xiao Yu laughed slightly, then said: "Miss please rest assured."

"..."

"Students of Xishan College have always listened to the owner of the Yan family and did not listen."

Listen to the announcement?

I'm not unfamiliar with this, but I just said it from Xiao Yusheng's mouth, and the relationship between Yan Qingchen and Xishan Academy made me feel a little subtle, but think about everything we experienced before when we were in Xichuan Including Yan Qingchen who wanted the students of Xishan College to go to the sea instead of him, he called the top three students, but the only one who came last was Xiao Yusheng, the second-ranked student. It can be seen that the Yan family's control over the Xishan Academy was not complete.

Xiao Yusheng said, "Listen to the tune but not the declaration," but it is a perfect summary.

"So Miss can rest assured. If there is anything wrong with Brother Liu's return to Xichuan, Xishan College will never sit idly by. Besides," he glanced at me and said, "It seems that Miss Miss has forgotten, Brother Liu He also received a generous gift from the Yan family. "

"Great gift?"

I froze for a moment, but still didn't react. I looked at his refined and reserved eyes, and then I thought about it immediately.

What he said was the light jade finger that Liu Qinghan gave to Yan Qinghan before he died.

That is not an ordinary jade pull finger, it represents the family business of Yan Qinghan! Although I still do n’t know how big Yan Qinghan ’s family business is, I heard that there were two mines in his hands that year. That ’s already an amazing wealth, not to mention other industries. With the ingenuity of Yan Qinghan, he has only been able to manage his family business for many years, and it will not shrink.

and so--

Xiao Yu laughed: "Miss shouldn't worry about this for Brother Liu."

I nodded slightly.

And then he said, "The young lady really should be worried about herself."

"..."

My eyes trembled and I looked up at him.

Xiao Yusheng didn't look at me. His gaze looked behind me, the closed door, then his eyes slowly moved upwards, and moved to the sky above Jinling Mansion. Night.

My heart tightened.

At this time, I asked the doubts that had been entangled in my heart just now--

"What are they doing inside them?"
