Because it was not far away, the emperor's questions entered Ye Huaiyang's ears without fail. She looked at Chu Jinglan's location dully, although there were several shadows in the middle, the outline was very blurred. , she still looked stubbornly until she heard Chu Jinglan reply.
"It's nothing, I just think this scene is well arranged."
"So it is." The emperor smiled slightly, but it seemed to be hidden behind the thick fog, so that people could not see clearly, "I think it is also, the emperor is alone and widowed, and he will not look there because of his own daughters."
"Brother Huang is joking." The corner of Chu Jinglan's mouth twitched slightly, and he lowered his head and drank without saying a word.
Ye Huaiyang then looked back, just as the maid came to serve the dishes with a tray, large and small dishes were spread on the table, such as Jindai silver fish soup, Longjing bamboo sun, braised deer tendons, etc. It can be described as dazzling, beautiful and delicious. However, Ye Huaiyang only drank a few mouthfuls of soup, and the other dishes did not change at all, as if he had no appetite.
"It seems that the dishes in the palace are not to the girl's taste."
A soft voice came from the left, Ye Huaiyang tilted her head to look, Bai Zhixuan was staring at her, her eyes were like a pool of water, and the darkness filled the bottom.
finally come.
She sneered secretly and said that it was such a coincidence that the apse was divided into three levels, the empress dowager and the queen sitting at the top, followed by the four concubines, then the madam and the ladies, so many people just let her Next to Bai Zhixuan, there are only two-foot-high steps in the middle. Others say that she can get this honor because of her high status.
"Isn't the imperial concubine the same untouched chopstick?"
"Bengong is greedy for cups." Bai Zhixuan smiled, and her fingers painted with bright red Kodan held the wine glass and invited her from the air, "Miss Ye may wish to try it, this is the Qinhuai nectar that Shang Shansi has collected for many years."
Her actions attracted the attention of many female relatives, and they all cast exploratory or curious eyes. Under such circumstances, Ye Huaiyang could not refuse. After a while, she replied softly, "Thank you.
After all, she raised her glass and slowly drank it.
Suddenly another voice came from the first song, slow and soft, but with a sense of distance that was unreachable.
"Bengong saw that my sister's meal was still untouched, and I thought that my sister was not feeling well, but who knew that she would have a drink with Miss Ye. This is a ten-year-old wine, so be careful not to get drunk."
A ray of light flashed in Bai Zhixuan's eyes, and she turned around and said to the queen, "Miss Ye has contributed greatly to the work of women's school, and the concubine admires her very much. The only way to toast her is to serve her with wine. Compared with what you pay, the portion of a cup is too light, sister, am I right?"
The queen smiled when she heard the words, then raised her sleeves and invited everyone to drink: "In that case, let's have a drink together."
The female family members responded in unison, and for a while they only heard the sound of the wine flowing slowly from the pot. Ye Huaiyang took a deep look at Bai Zhixuan, and finished the glass of wine again.
Guess what, the queen and the concubine started to follow suit, and everyone else followed suit, hoping to take this opportunity to befriend the Ye family, but Ye Huaiyang couldn't refuse, and after a few cups of yellow soup, sweat gradually appeared on his forehead. Grain, after finally a round passed, Bai Zhixuan's cold voice drifted to her ears again.
"How does this wine taste? Can Miss Ye taste it?"
Ye Huaiyang turned her head to look at her for a long time, but smiled slowly.
"If Niangniang wants me to bleed to death, this amount of wine may not be enough. Next time, remember to ask them to shoot the arrows deeper."
Bai Zhixuan's face changed suddenly, she never thought that she would dare to speak bluntly in public! Fortunately, the music was overshadowed by the music, and no one in the seat next to him heard it, otherwise it would be difficult to end. Thinking of this, her brows sank, exuding an intimidating coldness.
"Ye Huaiyang, you are very courageous, how dare you talk to this palace like this!"
"Why, does Niangniang want to deal with me on the spot? Let me remind you, there are countless people in this palace waiting to catch your mistakes. If you want to do something, you have to think carefully." Ye Huaiyang said, Glancing at the upper seat intentionally or unintentionally, Bai Zhixuan tightened her handkerchief immediately.
What Ye Huaiyang said was exactly what she was worried about. It was really too obvious to do something in the palace. The two in the East Palace were not vegetarians. The consequences are unimaginable, and she Bai Zhixuan is not stupid enough to do such a thing.
"I don't need Ben Gong to take action against you. This time it's just to teach you a lesson. Ben Gong advises you that you want to shake the Bai family's position in the emperor's heart just because of your little tricks. !"
"Of course I can't compare to the Empress." Ye Huaiyang had a smile on her cheek, but her right hand tucked into her sleeve was clenched into a fist, "When Empress was eighteen, she decisively abandoned her fiance whose life and death were unknown. I turned my head and became the new emperor's pillow, I really can't learn such methods."
"you-"
Bai Zhixuan's face was ashen, her eyes staring at Ye Huaiyang seemed to be poisoned, and she cut into the flesh, as if she was going to be smashed into thousands of pieces. Ye Huaiyang looked back at her fearlessly. Not happy.
How could such a woman be worthy of the man she admired
The burning sensation in the abdomen intensified, and the head became more and more drowsy. Thinking that the half pot of wine was working, Ye Huaiyang turned around and took a cup of tea and took a sip, ignoring Bai Zhixuan. Seeing this, Bai Zhixuan clasped the edge of the table, the dark clouds gathered and dispersed in her eyes, and finally returned to tranquility, but the killing intent in her heart became stronger and stronger.
A dinner party was spent in the rattling of swords.
At the end of the hour, Ye Huaiyang walked out of the Liuguang Palace. The night wind was cold and cold, but she felt as if her whole body was scorched by fire. The straight bluestone road in front of her was twisted into nine and eighteen bends, and every step she took was dizzy. , she had to slow down and walked for half an hour in a short distance. When she reached the inner city gate, there was almost no one on the road.
The crescent moon at the door has been waiting for a long time. Seeing other noble ladies leave one after another, I am more and more anxious, and I can't go in to find her. I can only turn around like a headless fly. When she arrived at Ye Huaiyang, she breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head and carried her cloak up to greet Ye Huaiyang.
"Miss, why did it take so long to come out? I'm worried about the dead slave!"
"nothing."
Ye Huaiyang comforted her in a low voice, did not pick up the cloak in her hand, and walked directly to her carriage. On the way, she passed another carriage. The person sitting in front of the carriage was very familiar, and even the crescent moon was surprised and stopped to look at each other. But as if he didn't see it, he rolled up his skirt and got into the car. Who would have thought that he would suddenly fall to the ground halfway up!
Crescent Moon rushed over in shock, but because the distance was too far, Huaiyang didn't even touch the corner of Ye Huaiyang's clothes. Seeing that she was about to fall, a black shadow suddenly flashed by her side, and it rolled to the carriage like a gust of wind to catch her whereabouts. Ye Huaiyang.
There was no expected scream.
Chu Jinglan looked down, the eyes of the person in his arms were tightly closed, and he had already lost consciousness. His body was hot, and he could feel the high temperature from his fingertips through the layers of clothes. It was obvious that he had been hot for some time.
At this time, Crescent Moon had already run to the front, and after squatting down and calling a few times, Ye Huaiyang did not respond. She was so anxious that she had no control. In the next second, Chu Jinglan directly slapped Ye Huaiyang and boarded the carriage of the palace. She had no choice but to insist. He got into the car with his head in his head.
The carriage galloped all the way, and intermittent lights leaked in and shone on Ye Huaiyang's face. The rouge was rubbed off at some point, revealing a pale, sick face.
"How is this going?"
Crescent Moon was looking at Ye Huaiyang without blinking, and was taken aback by Chu Jinglan's sudden question.
"The prince asked you, why is your young lady so sick?"
The ins and outs came to mind all of a sudden, Crescent Moon looked at the man in front of him, and suddenly said in a fit of anger, "Miss saw off the eldest young master half a month ago, and was attacked by an assassin on the way back."
And it's all because of your master!
She was going to say this, thinking that Ye Huaiyang was still being held in Chu Jinglan's arms, and after weighing the pros and cons, she silently swallowed it back, but the previous sentence had already shocked Tang Qingfeng.
"Assassin? Was it sent by the Bai family again?"
Crescent Moon put on a stinky face, but it was the default.
Tang Qingfeng didn't say a word for a long time. Seeing that Ye Huaiyang, who used to be alive and kicking, was so weak, his heart was quite uncomfortable. After all, she was a little girl who went to the palace for a banquet before her injuries were healed. No wonder he turned a blind eye to them just now, fearing that he was already groggy at that time.
There was silence in the carriage for a while, and suddenly heard Chu Jinglan instructing the shadow guard: "The speed is faster."
The shadow guard outside responded in a low voice, waving the whip and slamming the horse in a row, and it was much faster. Tang Qingfeng looked at Chu Jinglan with some doubts. The moment the light passed by, he suddenly widened his eyes - Chu Jinglan Fu The hand on Ye Huaiyang's shoulder is full of blood!
"My lord, this..."
Chu Jinglan didn't speak, took off the big coat and put it on Ye Huaiyang, and moved her to another position, revealing a wet front, covered with Ye Huaiyang's sweat, whether it was hot or painful.
"Miss? Miss!" Crescent Moon called repeatedly, like an ant on the hot pan, "It must be the wound on the shoulder that has opened, my lord, please, take us to the hospital!"
Chu Jinglan turned a deaf ear.
The street scene outside the curtain became more and more familiar. They were obviously on their way back to the palace. Crescent Moon saw a hospital with lights on, but the carriage did not intend to stop, so she blurted out in a hurry: "My lord, My young lady is here to provoke the Bai family to avenge you, you can't wait until you die!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a chill surged up all over her body for no reason, as if she was wrapped in thousands of layers of ice and snow, and it was difficult to even breathe. Just when the pressure was about to reach the top, she was suddenly hit on the back of the neck, and she lost it all at once. perception.
Tang Qingfeng retracted his palm, leaned Crescent Moon against the wall of the car, glanced at Chu Jinglan's face again, and decided to remain silent.
