Apart from them, in the imperial garden, there are only snow-covered branches on the ground and clusters of pink and white camellias blooming.
The huge courtyard is empty and silent.
In Rong Ting's heart, it was like a thousand horses crossing the border, and the whole place was in a mess.
It so happened that Jiang Rao was still blinking her moist eyes, and looked at him very seriously, "Are you really as bad as you said?"
Thinking that he might not want to be engaged to her anymore, no matter how pure and innocent his face is now, cleaner than the surrounding snow, she was actually a little annoyed.
She interpreted this annoyance as if he didn't want to be engaged to her anymore, then all the hard work she had suffered these days would be wasted and wasted.
Jiang Rao took a deep breath.
Now, not only did she get an impression of her liking for him from her father and aunt, but even Chen Bing and Chen Congyun knew that she had a deep love for him.
If she wants to regret it again, she must explain that she no longer likes him.
Otherwise, with her aunt's temper, if she knows that the person she wants to marry doesn't want to marry her, she might be like the king of the mountain and go directly to the emperor to snatch him.
Although Jiang Rao had both hands behind her back.
But the slender fingers have a tendency to squeeze together.
The root of Rong Ting's ear was dyed the same color as the camellia on the branch.
It's just that the subtle joy that had just sprouted in his heart was uprooted and trampled into mud in an instant because of recalling what he said just now.
The tall and straight figure tensed at this moment, and the black clothes were like ink, and the figure looked stiffer than the stone wall behind him.
As if he had become dumb, his Adam's apple rolled, but he couldn't speak for a while.
Because of his silence, Jiang Rao frowned even deeper.
"No... is it true?" She asked hesitantly.
"No." Rong Ting immediately denied.
His voice was very low and hoarse.
I didn't control my voice a little bit, and the ending was a little trembling.
He lowered his eyes as before, showing the kind of pity in his expression that most aroused her sympathy.
But... this expression made Jiang Rao suspicious, "You...have you wronged yourself and lied to me again?"
She glanced at him with disbelief. Seeing his lowered eyes and gentle expression, she felt that he was indeed the kind of person who did this, so she couldn't help thinking, "Don't be like you were before, for fear of causing trouble to me. I would rather keep some words in my heart than say them to me."
The word "you" made Rong Ting choke, "There is no Tibetan."
He just didn't think that he would be the one who was remembered from time to time, scolded from the beginning to the end of the year, and even thought about how to deal with it after he found it.
Originally, if that man dared to pester her, he had already thought about which knife to chop him with.
"Really not."
He took a deep breath, looked a little depressed, turned the wheel of the wheelchair, and said in a dull voice: "I... I will go back today."
Jiang Rao called out to his back, "You should go west."
Rong Ting's back stopped.
He turned stiffly, turned in the right direction, and left from the moon gate to the east, disappearing behind the moon gate
A moment later, his figure quietly appeared from behind the moon cave door.
Jiang Rao was about to leave when she saw his figure reappearing outside the moon gate, she stepped back and he came back slowly.

After leaving for a short time, his cheeks were already flushed.
As if just walked out of the soup pond, it seems that this snowy day is not so cold anymore.
This blush did not damage his handsomeness, on the contrary, it made his complexion no longer as dusty and cold as before, seeing it was like seeing flowers, like seeing a flourishing world, a little more worldly.
"I have no intention of not wanting to be engaged to you. I... didn't know that person was me before."
His tone was contrite.
If he knew it was him, why would he think about tearing himself to pieces every day.
Instead, he should have come earlier to get entangled with her.
"I'm only engaged to you alone."
"I will only be yours."
His voice finally returned to normal, abandoning the panic, and became deep, sandwiched in the cold wind, his voice was slow, deep and pleasant.
Word by word, very solemn.
After finishing speaking, he glanced behind her, suddenly stuffed the oil paper bag full of snacks into Jiang Rao's arms, and left again.
Jiang Rao looked at his back, a little strange.
She wasn't very fierce just now, why did he leave like running away
It was the first time she saw him in such a hurry.
The snacks in the bag were still slightly warm, she looked down, thinking of his deep voice when he finally assured her, her ears suddenly felt itchy.
All the uneasiness and anger just now dissipated.
She moved her toes, rubbed against the snow leisurely, muttered "I'm getting fat", and turned around, stunned for a moment.
Concubine Yun Gui was leaning against the hanging flower door on the other side, looking at her with a smile, and she didn't know how long she had been standing here.
Jiang Rao subconsciously hid the bag in her hand behind her back,
The white fluff of the fox fur cloak was piled up beside her delicate and soft face, and the fluff was trembling by the wind.
"What's so precious?" Concubine Yun Gui had already walked over quickly, opened the oil paper bag in Li Ji's hand in Jiang Rao's hand, fed Jiang Rao two pieces of snacks, and ate one for herself.
She teased with a half-smile, "Did you come to the Imperial Garden these two days to see the Ninth Prince?"
Jiang Rao nodded with a smile in his mouth.
Concubine Yun Gui snorted, and stuffed the bag back into Jiang Rao's arms with some disgust, "It's too sweet."
"Where did Auntie go just now?" Jiang Rao swallowed the cloud cake and asked Concubine Yun, "I woke up at exactly the right time this morning, but I couldn't find Auntie in Shuxiang Palace."
"Ah? Me, it's not a pleasure to find someone else."
Concubine Yun Gui raised her skirt, jumped up and down on the snow, raised her brows with a smirk, Jiang Rao understood, "Empress?"
Concubine Yun Gui nodded, "The emperor suddenly fell ill two months ago. Although he was cured, he often coughed after winter. It was snowing. I got up early in the morning and made some pear soup. I waited for him to go to the imperial study. On the way, I gave him the pear soup."
Concubine Yun looked very sleepy, but she always had a leisurely smile, as if she had just returned from a victorious battle.
She leaned close to Jiang Rao's ear and whispered, "Look, do I look haggard with my makeup today, as if I haven't slept all night?"
Jiang Rao took a closer look, Concubine Yun's make-up was thin today, and her eyes were specially painted with haggard crow blue, and she didn't use any lip balm. Jiang Rao said helplessly, "My heart hurts just looking at it."
"That's what I want." Concubine Yun Gui smiled charmingly, "Otherwise, how could I coax that man into thinking that I have deep affection for him?"
However, she raised her chin proudly, "Even if my makeup looks like this, I still look much better than the queen."
In snowy weather, the palace people carried the sedan chair and had difficulty walking on the palace road.
Qin Yun and Jiang Rao got off the chariot and walked back to Shuxiang Palace together. After entering the Nuan Pavilion, Concubine Yun Gui spoke louder to Jiang Rao.
"The emperor's illness this time has caused the empress to show off a lot."
"She waits in front of the emperor every day, acting like a virtuous and virtuous person. Not only that, but she also adds insult to injury by saying that other concubines don't care much about the emperor and don't come to visit him, as if she is the only one who can serve the emperor. , life equals life."
She babbled and complained dissatisfiedly, "It's clear that she made the edict and didn't ask other concubines to go."
"I really can't understand her style. By sending pear soup, I went to the emperor and cried. The queen changed her words again, saying that the emperor needs to rest, so she didn't ask other concubines to disturb her. .”
"What does the emperor say?"
Concubine Yun raised her eyes in disdain, "It's just a mess."
"He just wants to sit back and enjoy the blessings of everyone, so that everyone in the harem loves him sincerely, and wants them to live in harmony." Concubine Yun Gui sneered as if she had nothing to do with her, "Really?"
She yawned with a tired look on her face, "Within the palace walls, I'm afraid he won't be able to get what he wants."
This kind of words that could be beheaded by the emperor, Jiang Rao listened to Concubine Yun Gui said a lot, and she was not as nervous as before. She just secretly pulled Concubine Yun Gui's hand, and she was about to take her out of the palace in the future. I thought about it many times in my heart.
Concubine Yun's eyes swept over the table, and seeing the neatly arranged Yunpian cakes on the plate, she suddenly smiled, "Don't talk about these boring things, let me see, the Ninth Prince and his arrogant father The emperor is different."
"He is cautious in front of you and looks a little afraid of you. You haven't given up on your marriage yet, but your wife's profile is pretty good."
Wife Tsuna...
Jiang Rao: "..."
She thought of Rong Ting's running back, she lowered her eyes, "He is too timid, not cowardly."
"It's almost the same." Yun Guifei bent her lips in satisfaction, "In front of such a cowardly and gentle man, you don't have to pretend to please him like me, he will think of ways to please you, you If he stomped his feet, he might be the same as today, hiding in his shell in fright."
Jiang Rao: "..."
Cowardly is not enough.
Hiding back into the shell is somewhat appropriate.
She touched her cheek.
Although she doesn't regard herself as a rare beauty in the world, she also knows that she is good-looking and likable. "Do I look so fierce?"
"It's better to be fierce, and you won't suffer in the future."
That is really fierce.
Jiang Rao was a little depressed, Concubine Yun Gui peeled a handful of pomegranate seeds and fed her, "Shen Xiuying, do you still remember that you mentioned that to me before, Master Shen Que's second daughter."
"nature."
"Just now when I was confronting Empress Jia and Empress, a eunuch sent a message and called her away early, saying that Miss Shen Er was waiting for her in Jinxiu Palace. Empress Jia and Empress were in a hurry to leave."
"I'm a little surprised. Obviously Shen Xiuying is just the daughter of an ordinary official's family, but the queen's demeanor is very respectful."
Concubine Yun was puzzled, "I've only seen the empress respect the eminent monks in the temple before."
Jiang Rao frowned.
She still remembers the scene in her dream before entering the palace to attend the flower viewing banquet at the end of August this year—
Shen Xiuying angered Empress Jiahe, and was thrown out of the imperial garden by the maids next to Empress Jiahe, in a panic.
Only a few months passed in the blink of an eye, and Empress Jiahe's attitude towards Shen Xiuying changed
This is really weird.
She thought and thought, and said in a precise tone: "Shen Que was very close to my uncle before, and had nothing to do with the Xu family. In the flower viewing feast in the palace at the end of August, Shen Xiuying even bumped into the queen. He was not punished, but the scene was very embarrassing."
"I didn't care who the queen was with, but this Shen Xiuying always provoked you before, and I was always worried that she and the queen would be bad for you." Concubine Yun looked at Jiang Rao, her eyes softened Come down, "Niannian, I say this, are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid."
Jiang Rao shook his head.
Except for accidents with Jiang and Qin's family, she is not afraid of anything else.
Chen Congyun was placed with high hopes since he was born, and he was treated harshly since he was a child. He compared his family to a shackle, and now he just wants to abandon his family and run away.
But her situation is different from hers. No one puts pressure on her, but she is willing to carry this shackle on her back.
Gradually at noon, the shadow of the sun moved eastward, and a ray of dawn appeared in the gloomy sky.
At this time, a court lady bowed and came in from the outside, and reported: "Your Majesty, someone from Ning An Bo's residence has arrived."
"Let her in quickly!" Concubine Yun looked back at Jiang Rao and smiled sweetly.
"Your father really has a strong heart for the knife mouth tofu. It's only been two days, and he can't hold it anymore."
Jiang Rao didn't laugh, thinking that her father had softened so quickly, she felt a little sour.
The hanging tassels on the heavy curtain moved a few times, and after being lifted, the people waiting outside stepped in.
Seeing the face of the person who stepped in, Jiang Rao was both surprised and delighted, Li Wei sank down softly, looking joyful, "Ming Shao?"
Ming Shao's eyelashes are covered with hoarfrost, and her face is also covered with hoarfrost.
The frost on her eyelashes is the white snowflakes on her face when she was walking in the wind and snow, and the white frost on her face is the tear stains that were dried by the cold wind.
Before Jiang Rao had time to be happy, she was stunned for a moment when she saw Ming Shao's sad face.
Ming Shao's lips trembled, her face was blue and white.
She didn't even salute Concubine Yun Gui. When she saw Jiang Rao, she knelt down and said anxiously, "Girl, something happened."
Her tone was flustered, she didn't stop word by word, and said in one breath: "Someone impeached Si Ye's paintings in the early years and violated the taboo of being disrespectful to the emperor. It's all in the court."
