The autumn wind rustled, and the moonlit night was sultry.
Lu Qiange was wronged for no reason, and his angry white face suddenly was like being cooked. He hugged Gu Yunxi and retorted in a deep voice,
"I didn't do anything evil. Be cautious about your words!"
"Oops, you are a bastard! You are still so arrogant after being caught!"
The girl's face suddenly changed, and she waved to the side as she scolded.
The maids next to her immediately threw down the palace lantern, and leaped forward to the opposite side of Lu Qiange. With the fierce momentum and body skills, it seemed that she could play Kungfu.
The maid looked at Gu Yunxi, who was unconscious, and the sack on the ground. She turned her head and shouted to the girl in the pink cloak,
"Princess, this guy is really not a good person. The sack on the ground is proof!"
Princess?
Lu Qiange frowned when he heard the v
Yongning Palace—Two black shadows hurried into the side palace hall and knelt on the ground upon meeting Wan Li, the Shenle Marquis."Your Highness, our failure is punishable by death—"Seeing their bruised noses and swollen faces, Wan Li immediately understood and screamed,"You're well-trained. Why can't you even handle a little girl?"Knocking his head on the floor, one man covered half of his face imprinted with a purple shoe print and explained,"We've bagged the target, yet an Honour Guard showed up out of nowhere. He was really good!""Pathetic cowards—"Cursing, Wan Li smashed his palm on the table, which immediately broke into pieces.Wan Li held a grudge because he lost face before Gu Yunxi.It so happened that his Eldest Sister Wan Yuyao had been loathing Gu Yunxi because of Leng Qingtang. Thus she had ordered several eunuchs who were skilled
Zhanxing Tower—The eunuch head Lord Hu anxiously watched in a daze when Emperor Jingxiao and Jieyu Sun went away in the imperial carriage.What a big joke tonight!Jieyu Jin, who had been chosen by the Emperor himself, was still lying nakedly on the dragon bed at Tailuan Palace. A fire caused His Majesty to turn his affection to Jieyu Sun at Hanxiang Residence.After this mishap, the only people who would get in trouble were the servants.Lord Hu turned around with a bitter face to whisper to a little eunuch, who then hurried away after the Emperor.On the top of a corner at the west side of Zhanxing Tower, Gu Yunxi wore all black and hid behind the jade fence on the terrace, closely watching the happenings under Zhanxing Tower with her flickering eyes.When the fire was completely put down, the crowd dispersed. Only then did she stand up and smile behind her black mask.Gu Yunji
The night in Hanxiang Residence was sensual.The Emperor originally meant to stay the night with Jieyu Jin. But then he changed his route and went to Jieyu Sun's palace as a result of the unexpected fire.The news spread quickly in the imperial harem, stirring up jealousy and mockeries.Empress Qian nodded pleasantly after learning about it, praising Sun Shengsheng for being resourceful.The night of Zhanxing Tower's fire seemed longer than usual, while people with different minds mentioned nothing about what happened.Gu Yunxi returned to Chuxiu Palace to report back to Concubine Xu but mentioned nothing about Yu Xuanji.Then she stood on the side room porch, studying the cold night for a long time.The chilly autumn wind swung the palace lanterns. In the cold night, the dim yellow light was like fireflies, weak and sad.By now Gu Yunjin should have been carried back to Weiyan Ch
"Stop!"By the Jinli Lake, Emperor Jingxiao went completely mad out of the chaotic scene in front of him. Then his furious scream silenced all the people here."What, what are you doing here?"Striding forward, the Emperor pointed at Gu Yunxi, whose hair was dishevelled. He was angry with a sulky face and then looked around the concubines with sharp eyes.The concubines in colorful dresses bowed their heads and prostrated themselves, their delicate figures trembling.Beside Empress Qian, Duchess Min's eyes widened, and the light in her eyes flickered and became complicated then. She seemed to look at Gu Yunyao's body coldly with astonishment, joy, and heartache. Then her eyes turned to her face slowly, and she kept looking at her face lingeringly.Gu Yunxi lay on her back on the ground. When her half-open eyes caught a glimpse of a yellow dress, she felt delighted, knowing that her strategy had succeeded a
At midday, in the Yongning Palace—The fine wind ran through the window lattices, and the gold gauze curtains hanging from the Main Hall were wafting. The pendants of the crystal chandelier swayed under the inlaid blue carved beams. Just as it made a subtle and crisp sound, it was brutally obliterated by a roar and beating from below.Wan Yuyao was so angry that she lifted her hand and overturned the jade wine cup. She frantically ripped away the Hunan embroidery satin from the four-sided table and threw the cups, plates, and delicacies on it all over the place.Wan Li, the Shenle Marquis was silent and his face was black and blue. Ming Lan and other palace maids lifted their robes and knelt down one after another.At this moment, Wan Yuyao's beautiful eyes were sharp and red, and two fierce rays of light were revealed dazzlingly."Gu Yunjin is really a good-for-nothing. It was a waste of time for me to train her for a
On the third floor of the restaurant, Yaoer and Jin'er moved quickly under the Princess's order. The damp figures leaned out of the fence and landed on the street in a blink of an eye, blocking Lu Qiange's path.Relaxed and casual, Lu Qiange folded his slender arms before his chest. His beautiful purple eyes narrowed as a sneer showed on his red lips.Not long before he walked out of Wanhua Tower did he realize that he had been followed. He deliberately rested at this restaurant to lure the snake out of the hole.As he expected, as soon as he stepped out of the restaurant, the three troublemakers took the initiative to corner him.By now, pedestrians on the street had halted around Lu Qiange and the two maids.The owner of the restaurant and the people upstairs whose clothes had been stained also followed downstairs. They grabbed Yaoer and Jin'er, angrily demanding compensation.Annoyed and helpless, Huana
All the Western Depot guards dropped on their knees in the street.The Fourth Princess Huanan Jiyan cheerfully took back the gold waist card. She landed her hands on her hips and tilted her head proudly."Ming Lan, it's good for you to recognize me. Let me ask you, why are you surrounding an Honour Guard with your men?"Ming Lan was stiffened. He managed to conceal the softness on his face and bowed to reply, "It may be beyond Your Grace's knowledge that this man has committed a crime in the Western Depot. I've been arresting him for a year without results. Surprisingly, he's infiltrated the Honour Guards. If I don't bring him to justice today and allow his existence in the Palace, I'm afraid he will threaten the safety of the court."Lu Qiange stood on the side. His face turned blue and red when he squinted at Ming Lan speaking nonsense.To complete the task entrusted by his Mother, he had to infiltrate the Imperial P
In Peng CountyIn the twilight, one person saw that Jinsheng Pawnshop had hung the baffle in advance, and he turned around and hid in an alley.Soon, a white dove flew over the alley. It fluttered its wings, circled around, and flew away.Opposite the alley, in the pawnshop of Jinsheng, the sound of cries was harsh as if someone had been gutted the heart. Shopkeeper Qi bowed his head sadly with his dark and painful eyes, and asked weakly, "Your excellency, what on earth do you want me to do?"At the table, Leng Qingtang raised his face slightly and smiled, "I will never tell you to do evil things like murder and arson. Just help me read an account."As soon as Leng Qingtang stopped talking, a secret guard took out a blue enveloped booklet from his sleeve and placed it on the table.Shopkeeper Qi saw it and suddenly became amazed. He tremblingly picked up the accounts with his plump palms. As he turned the
Terra Nova's ninth year of the Daedalic Years, early spring.Kamakawa Yusui is shocked and annoyed when he receives news of a coup at the Imperial Palace and the imminent ascension of Prince Fuchi Yasutaka to the throne as the next Emperor.Since the Kunhuang Island and Huananhe lost a battle, Kamachi sailors suffered a heavy blow, Kamakawa was forced to take the remaining troops retreated to the south of Kunhuang Island, Tsuneoshima stationed.Unexpectedly, just when he was trying to avoid the previous shame and had been intensifying the study of the new combat program, the country had a great turnaround.Can't think too much, Kamakawa by water immediately point all 10,000 Ying army, lead five Anzai ship and a number of ships, with enough artillery Furlong machine fire speed back to Ying, swore to fight with and Shigeru cuts a high and low winners and losers.One night, as Kamakawa's fleet secretly approached Mizumura Harbor in Kyoto, a thick fog sudde
In the banquet hall of the palace, the fire and candles were bright, four dancing girls lined up, green silk buns, colorful makeup, silk sleeves fluttering and swaying, dancing in a slow and rhythmic dance.Two or three male musicians are not far from them, playing strings, flute, drums, each person's face is calm and solemn, but in the eyes of God duh, seems to have the essence of the aura of a hidden flash.The dinner was organized to celebrate the fifteenth birthday of Emperor Fuchi Masaharu, but due to the defeat of the Terra Nova army in Weihai, many of the entertainments were temporarily canceled, and only the traditional Yehime songs and dances were retained.Profound Ya Qing was the main character of tonight's banquet, at this time he was wearing brand new scarlet damask silk clothes kneeling above the chief belonging to him, looking quiet and enjoying the songs and dances.On the seats to his left were the former Emperor's side consort, Daiji, with h
Terra Nova, Kyoto.As night falls, in a short house in the civilian area, the blind man is anxiously waiting for his mother-in-law to return home from work.She hadn't been back for a day and a night, and that definitely hadn't happened in the past.Could it be that the Ninth Princess has encountered something on her end?Rustling footsteps stopped unexpectedly at the door.The blind man's sense of hearing is much more sensitive than normal people, his eyebrows slightly gathered, and without moving, he got up and lightly rubbed his steps to the wooden cabinet, and touched a sharp dagger from the top of the cabinet and quietly hid it in the sleeve of his coat.The door of the room opened, and by the sound of the footsteps coming in there should be two of them."You're Suigo Show's man, aren't you?"The one who asked the question in Terra Nova was a young man.The blind man turned his head sideways, carefully recognizing the source
A cold wind cut through the long, narrow corridor, and the lights flickered dimly.The man's ragged gasps continued to spill out of the closed wooden lattice barricade door, accompanied by the occasional few hushed cries of pain from the woman."Haru, come on, I'll accompany you to your room."Looking at Yuan Ya Qing's stagnant and godless clear face, Yun Shi's heart seized more than just pain as she tugged on one of his arms.The commotion in the room was in no way suitable for a teenager to be listening in.The teenager's eyes were lax as he took two steps with her, speaking quietly in Chinese: ."...Master, you have to trust me as well...it wasn't Mother and I's idea to march into Da Yi."Yun Shi suddenly became miserable inside, opened and closed his nose and said."I believed you, never had a doubt, and it was for that reason that I traveled across the river and across the sea to meet you in person in Terra Nova."The two co
"Yue Xilou, you traitor shall not die!"Qi and blood surged, and a strong hatred that had never been felt before invaded Yun Shi's consciousness.She jumped up with her eyes heavy with red and lunged at her enemy with all her might, reaching for his neck.Yue Xilou laughed scornfully and kicked her backwards with a flying leg.Yun Shi fell out onto the hard floor a few feet away, choking on blood and letting out a pained _groan_.Wamochi stretched his neck to look at it, grinning imploringly.Tsukishiro looks at the samurai on either side :)"Don't just stand there, take her down and keep her under good guard, she'll be of great use in the future.""Slow down ......"Yun Shi forced to endure the pain of bones about to break trembling climbed up, far away from looking at the abyss Ya Qing, the expression of desolate:"Your Majesty, I have something to say to you, please send the counselor."Empress Yuanya immediately s
The fact that the mute applicant, Yun, who was originally scrubbed out of the test, has been recognized by the Emperor as the Imperial Chef, shocks the entire Grand Cookhouse early the next morning.The cooks and handymen who had looked down on her earlier were now gathered in front of the stove in the cooking room, watching intently as she operated it herself.Even in the past days always rigid board a big white face of apricot leaf female master, this time all people before and after chasing after Yun Shi everywhere running, flattery, mouth like a river, all do their best to please. At sunrise, Yunshi was wearing a green coat and pants, put on a large apron to the stove to do the work.With white flour rolled out and crabmeat and shrimp mince and red fish roe in the filling, the meat buns are pinched out with absolutely thirty-three folds.Chicken breast, corn and green beans are sauteed in oil, thickened with soy sauce and pan-fried wine, and wrapped in so
He is, after all, the Emperor!Following the direction of Master Apricot Leaf's kneeling, Yun Shi looked at the teenager, his eyes filled with astonishment.The standing tasseled crown and the yellow coat are indeed the symbols of the imperial nobility of Terra Nova.But, this young man, he is actually the Emperor."Mute, why don't you kneel down!"The apricot leaf matron raised her eyes to the unresponsive Gu Yunshi and chided."Eh, forget it, forget it ...... Master Chief, you get up too."Meeting Yun Shi's eyes, the teenager's face flushed red and blushed as he explained: ."Granny, I don't mean to deceive you ...... I, I didn't eat well in the evening meal, and I was really hungry just now."Yun Shi's complexion returned to normal, pursed her lips and waved her hand, indicating that she didn't mind.Heh, how could she mind?She was begging for it!The hostess rises obsequiously and comes up to nod at the tee
The night fell slowly, blotting out the last rays of red light in the sky.The entire Western Garden was silent.Cloudseeker stood in the tiny compound under the endless sky, raising his head to look up at the dark inky colors of the night sky.In the field of vision, that heavy darkness seems to carry some kind of adsorption magic, only teaching people to look at a glance, want to look through.She failed the test to become a chef and lost her chance to enter the palace and meet the Emperor.Such a result directly disrupted all her latter plans.After losing her temper for a while, she thought of Hua Nanhe, who is still fighting in the battlefield, Yingyu, who is trapped in the palace of Dayi, and brother Mu Xiu, who is waiting for them to return home.Yun Shi's eyes burned as she quickly regained her fighting spirit.Now is not the time to be discouraged, since one way does not work, then find another way.The hour was already
Terra Nova, outside the Abyssinian Palace, West Court.The large cooking room was busy with players in white shirts and blue pants around wooden cases and stoves.In five days, Emperor Fuchiya's fifteenth birthday will be celebrated, and not only will there be a large-scale celebration dinner at the palace, but an all-day parade and festival will be organized throughout Kyoto."Faster, faster, the hour for the king to pass the meal is almost here, and later on your handmade delicacies will be the basis for whether or not you can stay as a loose cook."The woman in charge, Apricot Leaf, is in her thirties, with a purple shirt and pants, wandering around every corner of the cooking room with a stern look, urging the contestants with her mouth, and repeatedly scrutinizing their cooking techniques with her cold and warm gaze.The twenty casual chef applicants came from Terra Nova folk, both men and women, and most of their referrals were cooks and assistant
