Gu Yunxi blinked under the dancing bamboo shadow. Her eyes, staring at the silver-haired man, softened and became less sharp.
Obviously, she thanked him for taking over the responsibility of the quarrel in front of the emperor.
Huanan He squinted and held his eyes high with a bad smile.
The little woman who was just as strong as an angry little beast and couldn't wait to scratch people with her claws was biting her lower lip uneasily.
The emperor, Huanan Xin, stood aside, silently looking at their strange expressions. He only felt that he had become an outsider, and the situation was a little embarrassing.
The emperor coughed lightly and said, "Don't be angry, Uncle. My concubine is better recently and shouldn't be basking in the noon sun. If you want to play games, I'll send some people to play with you."
Huanan He looked away from the sedan and said, "I'm just joking. I'm not noble. How dare I pla
When Huanan He arrived at Shuofeng Hall, Commandery Princess Jingle was staring at the dishes on the table.Hearing a familiar sound, she turned her head. Seeing that the handsome man whom she had longed to see stepped over the threshold, she rose to her feet from the chair and hugged him quickly.She said, "Ninth Uncle, you come here too late. I have missed you all morning!"She stood on tiptoe and put her arms around Huanan He's neck in an intimate manner.The servant who came with him put two paper packages on the rattan table and then went out of the room. For what happened in the bamboo forest, Huanan He intentionally concealed. He gently patted her and comforted her with a smile."How have you been these days? Did nannies treat you well?" Huanan He asked.Jingle put down her hands, with her soft cheek being away from his broad chest. Then she held hands with him to sit down by the table.
Outside the scarlet gate with golden nails, Huanan He saw more than ten eunuchs carrying wooden barrels back and forth. They were delivering hot water to Jingyang Palace to spray water on the stone steps, corridors, doorposts, and other places of the inner and outer palaces for disinfection.Huanan He rushed towards but was stopped by the guard at the gate, who raised fist salute."Your Highness, forgive me. Please stop here."After the accident in Jingyang Palace, the gatekeepers had been replaced by Honour Guards of the Imperial Court. They wrapped most of the faces below the nose with a white cloth to isolate the virus in the palace, revealing only a pair of bright eyes.Huanan He ignored the guard and looked at the inner palace, trying to suppress his eagerness. He said carelessly, "Oh, is His Majesty there? I... I have urgent business with His Majesty.""There is a bad disease in Jingyang Palace suddenly, which is
The night engulfed the vast sky in the Palace.The faint watch drum sounded in the endless palace crossing road, bringing some hope and comfort to the dawn for sleepless people.The Jingyang Palace, which had been noisy all day, had been quiet for a long time."Zhiqi, come here quickly—"Gu Yunxi suddenly lifted the window curtain and made a low urgent call.Zhiqi raised the curtain, "Master, I'm here."Zhiqi took the initiative to stay on duty for the night today.She knew that her master took the secret medicine to get "smallpox".Therefore, she must keep guarding her master at all levels. In case of any unexpected situation, she, as an insider, could take care of her.At a glance, Zhiqi saw that Gu Yunxi was full of blood on her hands, "Ah! Master…""Shhh, just a wound. Bring the bandage."Gu Yunxi frowned due to the pain. She gritt
At dawn, the little eunuch on the night watch shouted in the courtyard, "Who put this stuff here? I almost tripped over it!"Hearing that, Zhiqi came out of the main hall."What are you doing? Her Grace is still asleep. Can't you be a little bit quieter?""Here, take a look!"The little eunuch threw the bamboo basket into Zhiqi's arms and rubbed his sour back neck, replying crossly, "That's odd. I've been guarding under the window all night. Why didn't I see any thieves entering our palace?""..."Zhiqi put her hand into the basket with puzzlement and groped carefully so as to avoid the sharp thorns on the stem of the wild roses inside.Suddenly, something came into her mind. The look in her eyes changed slightly. She slowly smiled, saying to the little eunuch, "Oh, I was the one who left it here. I went to the kitchen and I almost forgot it. Thank you!"With this, she carr
Time flied and passed day after day. It was as ordinary as a light wind sliding through your fingertips.It was now July.Recently, more than 20 jars of lotus in Miaoyin Hall were in full bloom. While it was not so hot in the morning, Noble Concubine Hui Shi Yuanqing invited concubines to visit lotus in her palace.Miaoyin Hall had exquisite architectural design and elegant layout. Although it was not as luxurious as Kunning Palace or Jingyang Palace, it was also bright and broad.The lotus in the yard was not like the flowers in an ordinary lotus pond. The diameter of the lotus was only the diameter of the rice bowl. There was vermilion, light pink, light yellow and white, surrounded by overlapping petals, as light as yarn.Palm-sized lotus leaves were eye-catching, like a girl's skirt.Maybe the lotus had a soul. It knew that many people who loved flowers would come to enjoy it. At one time, it bloomed a
When Dong Zhu learned that she didn't have to stay in the Jingyang Palace to work, she was so happy that she was almost flying, and she was so stupid that she showed such a happy expression on her face in public.She left with seven other eunuchs and maids in addition to eunuch Che.These mercenary people happily ran back to their rooms, quickly packed up their luggage, and ran to Eunuch Superintendent Liang Zhen, looking forward to better work waiting for them.Surprisingly, at the next moment, their fates were to wash pants in the laundry or brush the toilet in the bathroom.After dismissing the people in the Palace of fire fates, Huanan Xin could not bear the pain of missing. Ignoring the dissuasion of the imperial doctor, he covered his face with a white cloth and stepped into the Main Hall of the Jingyang Palace quickly.The appearance of Gu Yunxi in the bedroom frightened him.They hadn't seen them f
Gu Yunxi's carriage went all the way out of the Palace to the southwest suburbs. After noon, it entered the mountain road with pine and cypress trees.They heard the bell ringing from a distance. Master Huichan, the Chief Abbot, personally led the disciples to meet them in front of the mountain gate.The Honour Guards were only responsible for sending them to their destination. When the task was completed, they went down the mountain without looking back.Considering that Gu Yunxi was ill, the monks carried her in a soft sedan chair, bypassed the main hall and several side halls, and came to a unique courtyard through the Full Moon Gate.In the main room, there were beds, tables and chairs, cabinets and bookshelves, with simple and elegant furnishings.A long wooden table was set on the north wall for incense burner and Buddha niche.In the niche, the golden body Avalokitesvara held a clean bottle w
"Bingbi? Lord Bingbi, please spare my life. I will never dare to do it again." Zhuo was so frightened that his face was pale as paper. He had never expected that he would get into trouble when he tried to help his friend.He was skinny and had no Kungfu or internal strength to protect himself. He wouldn’t survive the punishment of being beat 12 times by a stick, let alone 20 times!Zhuo was afraid and wronged. He was howling, struggling, and begging for mercy, "Your Highness, Your Highness, please save me. Lord Xi, please help me!"Jingle was anxious and angry. She rushed to the door and stretched out her arms to block their way, "Wait. I forced him to take off the official suit of the Imperial Ceremony Office. Do me a favor and let him go. I will reward you!"Leshuang's deep and cold eyes changed slightly, and he tilted his head to look at the girl with interest.Although this girl was mischievous, she was still right
