Xiaoru passed along the dinner, but Shangguanxue didn't come back for a long time. She went directly to Jianzheng Hall to find her. I was just in a hurry and didn't pay attention to my steps along the way.
"Ah!" Concubine Xiao was looking for something in the imperial garden with her personal maid Jian Ying when she stepped on something on the gravel road and twisted her foot.
Xiaoru's feet twisted badly, and before she could stand up, Concubine Xiao and Jian Ying came over.
"Who do I think she is? It turns out to be that wild girl who came from nowhere." Xiaoru grinned in pain, but Concubine Xiao was obviously trying to find trouble with her, and it looked like she was going to suffer a lot again.
Jian Ying's sharp eyes saw the emerald at Xiaoru's feet at a glance.
"Your Majesty, the gem that the Emperor just rewarded you with is at her feet!" She thought she could be rewarded for finding something, but Concubine Xiao gave Jian Ying a slap in the face.
"Empress!" Jian Ying hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"Why don't you pick it up quickly?" Concubine Xiao was very angry, but she couldn't get angry anymore. How could she look so rude in front of her opponent. She adjusted her clothes and tried to maintain a decent posture.
Xiaoru had a flash of inspiration and immediately picked up the gem.
"Damn girl, give it to me quickly." When Jian Ying saw that she was about to come up to grab the gem, Xiaoru immediately shouted: "Don't come over. I'll throw it away if you come again."
Go to the lake. "
"Don't!" Xiao Liangqin was also a little panicked. It was a gift from the emperor. If it were lost, it would be a death penalty for the nine clans.
"Okay, you go to Tailong Hall now to inform people to come here, and then you go back to your own palace. As long as I go back, I will definitely send someone to send the things back." Xiaoru finally seized the opportunity and refused to let go, Xiao Liangqin also Had to agree.
Not long after Xiao Liangqin left, the people from Tailong Palace arrived. However, Xiaoru would rather die there than return to Tailong Hall.
"Miss, are you alright?" Xinxin, the palace maid who always served Xiaoru closely, helped Xiaoru up.
Xinxin helped Xiaoru and walked a few steps before stopping.
"Little talented man, go find a soft sedan chair. Miss's feet will be broken if she walks back like this." Xinxin half-carried Xiaoru to Qingyue Pavilion and sat there waiting for the young talented man to come back.
At night, Xiaoru lay on the bed unable to sleep. Xiao Liangqin said: Do you think the emperor really likes you? To tell you the truth, the emperor has already planned to make you a princess and send you to get married!
Although she didn't like Concubine Xiao's smile so wildly, Concubine Xiao's words were even more chilling.
"Miss, can't you sleep?" Xinxin was keeping vigil outside tonight. Hearing Xiaoru's tossing and turning on the bed, she couldn't help but ask.
However, Xiaoru did not respond. She just thought it was Xiaoru who didn't sleep well and didn't take it seriously.
Although Xiaoru couldn't fall asleep yet, she didn't toss and turn. The moonlight dimly passed through the window paper, hazy like the scene where she met Li Yuxiang countless times in her dreams.
Now when she dreams about Li Yuxiang, his face is blurry and cannot be seen clearly. Maybe time and distance can really dilute the feeling of love.
Keep staring at the auspicious clouds embroidered on the top of the mosquito net. I don't know when, Xiaoru also fell asleep peacefully.
Early in the morning, Xinxin knocked on the door with face wash. "Miss, I have to go out with the emperor today. You have to get up early and freshen up."
"I know, I'll get up soon." Xiaoru rubbed her sleepy eyes, and she could still feel the moisture on the pillow from the side of her face.
The weather outside is not good at all, and I don't know if this trip will go smoothly.
