"Xuexue, I finally caught you." Guan Yi hugged Chuxue and crawled out from under the low plum branches to pat the dust off his body, gently stroking its snow-white fur, Chuxue squinted his eyes comfortably, "Meow. "

"I made you your favorite dried fish, you have to be obedient and stop running around."

"Meow."

Chuxue rubbed against her body and lay obediently in her arms, Guan Yi smiled and brushed off the fallen flowers on her body: "So obedient."

After walking a few steps, it suddenly opened its eyes, and flew out from her arms, only heard a sound of pain, Chuxue fell to the ground with a wail, and three bloody scratches appeared on the back of Li Fei's fair hand.

Guan Yi turned pale with shock, carefully hugged Chu Xuehu in his arms, knelt on the ground and said, "Concubine Li, forgive me."

Chu Xuewo let out small whimpers in her arms, struggled a few times and wanted to rush towards Concubine Li, the faint fragrance of camellia entered her nostrils, Guan Yi was in a trance, a feeling of wanting to grasp but being unable to grasp Gone in a flash.

"Bitch!"

Concubine Li gave her a backhanded slap, and she couldn't dodge enough to lean forward and was safely supported by a weak shoulder. Her left cheek was instantly red and swollen, and a stream of blood spilled from her lips, showing the strength of her strike.

Jiang Li half-kneeled on the ground and stabilized the carved tray in her hand, frowned slightly and glanced at Guan Yi worriedly, then lowered her head and said, "Your servant sees Empress Li."

Concubine Li's phoenix eyes were raised, and she bent down to lift off the red brocade on the tray. Ruixin, who was standing beside her, hurriedly opened the box inside, Qianqianyu picked up the gold hairpin inside, and Jiang Li looked at the hairpin in astonishment. The agate jade that was used as the finishing touch on the head was broken off by her: "The disobedient offender!"

"Concubine Li, forgive me, the gold hairpin is not Guan Yi's fault."

The court lady bowed her head respectfully and helped her bandage the wound. She smiled and curled her lips: "Oh? It's either she or you. Do you think it's her or you?"

"Chuxue didn't mean to offend Concubine Li, and the matter of the golden hairpin still needs to be investigated." Guan Yi took a small step forward to block Jiang Li, "I don't even dare to disobey."

"Baby maid, sophistry!" Concubine Li looked at her with stern and frightening eyes, "Slap your mouth."

"Presumptuous! The maids around me have their own discipline, when will you have to take over?" Concubine Xi's expression was indifferent but she had a dignified dignity without anger. Xiao Luo hugged Chuxue from Guan Yi's arms, feeling distressed He bowed his head and patted.

"I don't dare." Concubine Li made a bow, "The imperial concubine's move is too partial to the servant girl, but the concubine was scratched by the cat in the arms of this lowly servant girl."

"I have been scratched by Chuxue before, just bandage it up, you are making a fuss too much." Xiao Zhe glanced at Guan Yi and Jiang Li who were kneeling on the ground and said lightly, "Get up!"

Concubine Li's eyes were filled with tears and she said charmingly: "Your Majesty, she even deliberately broke the golden hairpin that the imperial concubine empress gave to the empress dowager. It is clear that she is... confident... Your majesty..."

Jiang Li lowered his eyebrows and took a step forward: "My Majesty, the imperial concubine, this gold hairpin is decorated with golden pine and jade plums, embellished with pearls and jade, like pines and cypresses, and a full moon agate is hidden in the pine branches on the head of the hairpin. Yu Fushou is continuous, and the two are independent, and they are integrated with each other, which is called yin and yang. The golden hairpin has not been damaged."

"Sizhenfang is unique this time." Concubine Xi looked carefully at Nobile and said with a light smile, "Huanshu, send it to Fengqi Palace!"

"Yes."

"Your Majesty..." Concubine Li held Xiao Zhe's arm and shook her with teary tears, "I am wronged..."

"You go back to Qinghua Palace to rest first, and Imperial Physician Xuan will take a look. I will come to see you later."

Xiao Zhe hadn't been to Qinghua Palace for nearly two months, so he agreed to visit her this time, so he was naturally overjoyed: "The concubine is resigning."

Li Chengchen took out a white handkerchief and gently wiped the blood from the corner of Guan Yi's mouth. She hissed lightly and suddenly came back to her senses: "Grandfather?"

"Apply it with a cold kerchief."

"Ah."

Xiao Zhe paused beside Jiang Li: "What's your name?"

"Slave Jiang Li."

"Cheng Chen, reward."

"Yes."

After entering the palace, Xiao Zhe said to Concubine Xi: "Are they here to disturb you again?"

Concubine Xi sighed helplessly, "Are you confident? Concubine Li has been very tempered recently, if there is a next time, I won't let it go."

Xiao Zhe smiled lowly: "You are welcome, don't forget that you have the right to assist the Six Palaces."

After lunch, the redness and swelling on Guan Yi's cheeks subsided a lot. He studied ink beside the desk and watched Xiao Jing teach Xiao Luo how to practice calligraphy: "Is this the right word?"

Xiao Jing took out a piece of rice paper full of teeny lowercase letters: "How many do you know?"

"Ren, Zi, Shan, Yue, Jian, Zhi... I don't know each other very well." She tried her best to identify a few, "His Royal Highness, are you right?"

"Do you know what it says?"

"Slaves are stupid."

Xiao Jing took out another piece of rice paper that was not full, put it on the desk and tapped it, Xiao Luo raised her head and said to her seriously: "Changlin Fu, Director Li will be able to recite it at the age of three."

back?three years old?Can he understand so many words?Xiao Jing was noncommittal: "Director Li wrote the preface to Su Xi's collection at the age of seven, which is comparable to Chang Lin's Fu."

seven years old?What was she doing at seven years old?It seems to be cutting pigweed with a bamboo basket in the field, or playing with mud on the ridge?Why is there such a big gap between people?

"It's hard, isn't it?"

Xiao Luo blinked her eyes and smiled, looked at her and buried her head to continue writing, Xiao Jing glanced at her and turned the Langhao brush in her hand and said: "You will know if you ask Manager Li to write it for you."

"His Royal Highness will not be..."

"At that time, I will copy a copy for you myself. How about you give me what Mr. Li wrote?" He fanned the flames, "I will reward you."

No... no way?Still let her cheat?The Changlin Fu is so long, it makes her scalp tingle. The Su Xi anthology sequence is so long, how could the father-in-law write it for her?

"Meow." Chu Xuewei rubbed against Guan Yi's feet, she suddenly remembered something and put down the ink ingot in her hand, leaned over and picked it up: "His Royal Highness, Xuexue must be hungry, this servant took it to the outer hall."

"Go."

Guan Yi carried Chuxue to the outer hall, and walked past the bottles and jars placed on the table one by one: "Xuexue, do you hear anything wrong?"

At first it was just lazily raising its eyelids in her arms, and when it stopped beside several porcelain vases that are often used to enshrine flowers, Chuxue began to move forward restlessly, struggling indiscriminately, "Meow meow!"

……

The stone steps of the violent room are made of well-polished water-milled bricks. The original stone walls are rough in workmanship. After a few steps, you can see the horn lamps raised above the head. , a smell of damp and decay mixed with the stench of blood spread across the surface.

The air gets thinner as you go down, and when you turn around the door of the moon, the whole dark room illuminated by countless wrist-thick candles seems to be daylight.

Li Chengchen leaned on a chicken wing wood armchair, coldly looked at the dying court lady on the ground: "Say it or not?"

Her messy hair was stained with dirty mud stains, blood mixed with stains slowly fell down the hair tips, her eye sockets were sunken, her lips were pale and chapped, and the palace clothes were wrinkled and torn. The mummy dug out of the tomb was terrifying and resentful, lifeless.

"I should have said everything, Eunuch, please forgive me." Her eyes were full of tears, and she crawled forward enough to reach the corner of his clothes, "I'm just a slave, but I can't help it if I follow orders, Eunuch pity the slave Bar!"

"I don't know how to repent!" He kicked her on the ground and stared at her fingers in disgust. Two men in black brought a small soft pillow full of silver needles at the right time, and she shook her head in horror. "no no……"

"Flowers... vases... even heart poison..." She huddled tremblingly, talking intermittently, dirty tears dripped on the bluestone bricks, faint bloodstains bloomed, and her fingers hung down like ornaments. On the side of the body, the nails are full of mud, and it is only by candlelight that it is possible to see clearly that there are hair-like silver needles stuck in the nails of each finger.

"Father-in-law?"

"Chop off your fingers and send them to Qinghua Palace together with the eyeballs. As for her..."

Following his stern gaze, she suddenly discovered that there was a deep pit more than one foot deep in the northwest corner of the dark room. A circle of bronze patterned symbols was poured on the edge, and a circle of realgar was sprinkled. , spitting out the letter, the scales glowed with a strange cold light, and I felt chills before I got close, snake cave!

"Immediately send someone to replace all the porcelain vases in Linghui Pavilion."

When Li Chengchen returned to the courtyard at sunset, he happened to see Guan Yi squatting under the red plum tree, half-embracing Chuxue, staring at a pile of broken porcelain in a daze. One person and one cat are surprisingly alike.

"what to do?"

"Eunuch, why did you come back so early?"

Guan Yi ran over excitedly, and under her surprised gaze, Li Chengchen raised her chin and took a closer look at her cheek: "There is swelling reducing cream in the medicine box."

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." She pursed her lips in embarrassment and lowered her head, but her cheeks were even redder than before, "Elder-in-law, I have something to tell you."

"Ah."

"Go into the house and talk!"

She tugged at his sleeves and pulled him into the room, looked left and right cautiously and closed the door, sitting opposite him with a rare solemnity, Li Chengchen poured a cup of hot tea and pushed it in front of her, then poured another cup for herself .

"Eunuch, when I was sent to your yard, there was an unknown scent of camellia on the jacket, which should be related to the matter that Eunuch investigated.

During the day, Xuexue scratched the back of Empress Li's hand for no reason, and I also smelled the fragrance of camellia on Empress Li, Xuexue seemed to be particularly sensitive to this smell, so it shouldn't be accidental that it broke the plum vase that day, The smell on the plum bottle is relatively light, and it will only respond to it when it is close.

I held it and smelled the bottles and jars of Linghui Palace one by one. The porcelain vases used to enshrine flowers, Xuexue, reacted very strongly. Should my father-in-law ask someone to change those bottles?

I don't know what this smell is, and whether it is related to the matter that the father-in-law is investigating, but after thinking about it, it is not very good. If it is not good for the imperial concubine, the prince, and the second prince, it is not good. Change it Be safe. "

Li Chengchen looked at her quietly without saying a word. Guan Yi felt guilty when he saw her. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Am I wrong? Or is it troublesome to change those bottles? I definitely didn't target Li Fei." mean, I..."

He showed his face and smiled, as if the snow had just melted in the spring, he reached out and touched the top of her hair: "There are thinness in the thick, I misjudged you."

The author has something to say: Guan Yi: Is it my illusion?Why is my father-in-law so nice to me?

Chuxue: Meow! (To take advantage of.)
