I sat back at the table and continued to eat the barbecue. The man whose palm was nailed to the table was still bleeding. The blood was so unpleasant, I frowned slightly. Adu knew what I meant, she pulled out the chopsticks and kicked the man. The man was holding his injured palm, and crawling to the stairs to escape, even forgot to take his knife. Adu picked it up with his toe, flicked the knife in his hand, and handed it to me. According to our rules, those who lose in a fight should leave their own sabers. Adu accompanied me to Beijing for three years and still did not forget the old customs of my hometown.
I looked at the bronze lettering on the handle of the knife, and I frowned again.
Adu didn't understand what I meant by frowning. I handed the knife to Adu and said, "Return it to him." At this time, the man had already climbed to the top of the stairs, and Adu raised his hand. The knife was nailed to the pillar beside him. The man yelled, not even daring to turn his head back, like a hydrangea, Gu Lulu rolled down the stairs.
Coming out of Wenyuelou, it was full of moonlight, and the top of the tree was shining brightly with a bright moon, and the white plump light was shining like a glutinous rice cake that had been bitten by someone. I was too full to eat, my stomach was so full that it hurts, I held my stomach with a sad face, and followed Adu one step at a time. According to my current snail-like climbing method, I'm afraid it will be dawn when I climb back. But Adu was very patient, always taking one step, stopping one step, and waiting for me to follow. We just walked to the corner of the street, and suddenly a bunch of people "hu la la" came out of the darkness. At the first few people were clinging to the dazzling sword, and some people shouted: "It's them!"
Looking intently, it turned out that it was the group of Habayashi who had just moved in for rescue.
Why do you always end up in a fight every time you go out and stroll around on the street? I don't think I am a person who likes to make troubles!
I sighed as I looked at the black human head, which always looked like hundreds.
Adu pressed the golden knife on his waist and looked at me questioningly.
I didn't tell A'du that the words on the knife just now made me no longer interested in fighting. If you don't fight, then Sa Yazi-run!
Adu and I ran all the way, fighting, and we would never dared to claim the best in the world, but when it comes to running away, if we are second in the capital, no one would dare to claim the first.
For the past three years, we have fled on the street every day. The experience of being chased and chased by others is so rich. When we ran wildly, we chose the back streets and alleys. We got in and went in all directions. Drop the tail behind.
However, the group of Habayashi Langs we met this time took it seriously, and even followed behind them, chasing after me and A'du in a big circle without throwing them away...
I ate too much, and after being chased by those **** for so long, I was about to vomit. Adu dragged me out of the alley to a street, and there was a group of people coming towards us in front of them, and these people looked like Habayashi Lang from a distance.
It was not that group of **** who planted an ambush earlier? I leaned on my knees and panted, and now I have to fight.
The noise behind him is getting closer, and the **** are catching up. At this time, the torch lantern held by the oncoming team was already in front of us. The leader was riding a tall white horse. I suddenly realized that I knew this person. I couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Peizhao! Peizhao!"
Pei Zhao, who was riding on the horse, didn't see it really, but looked at me suspiciously. I jumped up again and yelled his name, and the people next to him took a step forward with the lantern and took a clear picture of my face.
When I saw Pei Zhao's body shake, I got off the horse, and saluted me neatly: "Too..."
I didn't wait for him to say the second word, so I hurriedly interrupted him: "What's the matter? A bunch of **** are chasing after me, help me stop them!"
Pei Zhao said: "Yes!" stood up and drew out the long sword he wore around his waist, and issued an order in a deep voice, "Face the enemy!"
The sound of the people behind him was "swiping, pulling" and drawing knives. At this time, the **** had also chased them. Seeing that the torch lantern was bright here, Pei Zhao took the lead with the sword, and could not help but slow . The first few people barely managed to squeeze out a smile, but their teeth rang softly: "Pei... Pei... General Pei..."
Seeing that it was a group of Habayashi Lang, Pei Zhao couldn't help but his face changed suddenly, and asked: "What are you doing?"
Pei Zhao is General Jin Wu, who is in charge of Yu Lin Lang. Now those splashing skins were a bit hard to suffer, I took A'du, and happily took advantage of the situation and ran away.
Adu and I went back over the wall. Adu's light work is very good and silent. The higher the wall, she gently carried me, and the two of us have already gone up. It was late at night and it was terribly quiet everywhere. It's empty and big here, it's always so quiet.
We are like two little mice, sneaking in quietly. It was pitch black everywhere, and only a few flickering lights were far away. The floor was covered with a thick carpet, and it was soft and silent when I stepped on it. I fumbled to find the bed. My comfortable bed... Thinking about it, I couldn't help but yawn: "It's so sleepy..."
Adu suddenly jumped up, and I was shocked when she jumped. At this time, the surrounding area suddenly became bright. Someone lit the candles, and a bunch of people came in with lanterns. It was Yongniang at the moment. A long distance away, she knelt down with tears in her eyes: "Prince princess, please give the slave and maid a capital crime."
I hate people kneeling, I hate Yong Niang, I hate people calling me the crown prince, I hate every crime.
"Oh, didn't I come back well."
Every time I come back to Yongniang, I have to come to such a set, she is not tired and I am tired. Sure enough, Yongniang immediately received her tears, and immediately ordered Gong E to come up and wash up for me, and involuntarily took off my menswear, and put on my least favorite clothes, wearing three layers inside and three layers outside, one layer. Layer after layer, like a piece of peanut cake, peeled for a long time without seeing peanuts.
Yong Niang said to me: "Tomorrow is Zhao Liangdi’s birthday, so don’t forget the princess, you always have to make a fake statement."
I was so sleepy that those Gong Es were still washing my face. I wore a large handkerchief around my breast, and the hair on the back was spread out. They combed me carefully with my teeth, which made me even more drowsy. I feel like a puppet. At their mercy, Yong Niang talked a lot to me, but I didn't listen to a word because I finally fell asleep.
This night I slept very sweetly, ate well, and was chased for most of the night. It was too hard to run around. When I was sleeping soundly, I suddenly heard a loud "pop", and I woke up as soon as I opened my eyes, only to realize that the sky was already bright. I saw Li Chengyin walk in angrily, and Yong Niang led Gong E to kneel down to meet him in panic.
I didn't wash my face with disheveled hair, but I had to get up from the bed, not because I was afraid of Li Chengyin, but if I quarrel with him in bed, it would be too shameful, too imposing.
He obviously came to Xingshi to inquire about the crime, and looked at me coldly: "You can still sleep?"
I gave a big yawn and then said, "What can't I sleep for?"
"Why are you woman so vicious?" He frowned and looked at me, his gaze was like two cold arrows, as if to drill two holes in my body, "Don't pretend to be !"
This is not his usual way of quarreling with me. I feel inexplicable: "What's wrong?"
"What's the matter?" He gritted his teeth and said to me, "Zhao Liangdi ate the shou noodles you sent, vomiting and diarrhea, why are you so poisonous?"
I rolled my eyes at him: "I didn't give Shou Noodles to anyone. It doesn't matter who ate diarrhea!"
"Dare to do it or dare to recognize it?" He said contemptuously, "It turns out that the women in Xiliang are so skinless and faceless!"
I was furious. Li Chengyin quarreled with me for three years. He knew how to irritate me. I jumped up and said: "The women in Xiliang wouldn't dare to do things that I didn't dare to recognize. Why do I? Acknowledge? Our Xiliang woman has always acted happily, talking about Zhao Liangdi, if I want to kill someone, I will only take a knife and fight her hard, so I won't be this kind of Xiaoxiao who is poisoned behind! It's you, don't ask indiscriminately Just come to wrong people, what kind of man are you in Beijing?"
Li Chengyin said angrily: "Don't think that I dare not dispose of you! So I fight for this reserve, I can't tolerate you as a snake!"
I quack threw out four words: "I listen and listen to it."
Li Chengyin flew away with anger. I couldn't sleep anymore with anger, and my stomach ached. Adu rubbed it for me. Yongniang was still kneeling there. She was obviously frightened, shaking her whole body like chaff. I said: "Let him go. He threatens to abolish me every year. He hasn't said it this year."
Yongniang tears down again: "The prince concubine forgives the sin...The noodles were sent by the slave servant..."
I was taken aback, and Yong Niang said: "But the servant girl really didn’t do anything in it. The servant girl just thought, today is Zhao Liangdi’s birthday, if the princess doesn’t reward anything, it seems a bit... a bit... Before she woke up, the slave and maid took charge without authorization and ordered someone to send some birthday noodles. Unexpectedly, Zhao Liangdi would have vomiting and diarrhea after eating... Please punish the slave and maid’s death..."
I said nonchalantly: "Since we didn't do anything, then her diarrhea is not our business. There is no crime or death. You get up quickly and kneel there to kill me."
Yongniang stood up, but she was still in tears: "Prince Princess, that word is a taboo, you can't say it."
Isn't it just a dead word? Who in this world will not die? These rules of the East Palace are the most annoying. If you don't say that, you can't do it. I'm almost suffocated.
Because of Zhao Liangdi's vomiting and diarrhea in this field, her birthday naturally did not have a good time. Li Chengyin finally couldn't swallow this breath, and made a fuss. It is impossible for him to destroy me. Without his father's words, even the masters would stop him. But I was still unlucky because Li Chengyin filed a complaint before the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother sent several books such as "Female Training" and "Female Commandments" and punished me to copy every volume. Ten times. I was locked up in a room, calling the sky not good and the ground not working. I copied it for many days, but the copy became soft and I had not finished the copy.
When I copied all the books for the fifth time, Yong Niang told me that a Gong E Xu Niang who was waiting for Li Chengyin was overjoyed, and Zhao Liangdi was dying.
I asked her puzzledly: "What is Yuxi?"
Yong Niang almost didn't take her breath away. She talked to me in a circle for a long time before I realized that Yuxi had a baby.
I am excited to go to see the excitement. In the past few years in Beijing, I have not seen anyone around me giving birth to a baby. Of course I have to get involved in such a rare thing. In the end, Yong Niang was held tightly: "Prince Consort, I can't go! It is said that His Royal Highness once promised Zhao Liangdi that he would never have two hearts. His Royal Highness was also drunk that day, so he would please Xu Niang. Now Zhao Liangdi is crying. Tears, it’s not fun. If the princess went to visit Xu Niang at this time, Zhao Liangdi would think that the princess was deliberately demonstrating..."
I really don't understand why Yong Niang thinks this way. Everyone in the East Palace is weird. They think that things always go round and round. I sighed. Yongniang said that Zhao Liangdi would think that way, maybe she would really think that way. I don’t want to argue with Li Chengyin anymore. He will sue me before the Queen Mother and not punish me. Copy books to death?
At night, the queen called me into the palace.
I rarely see the queen alone, every time I am with Li Chengyin. What the queen said to me was limited to "flat body", "giving a seat" and "go down and rest." This time she summoned me alone, Yong Niang looked very uneasy, she accompanied me to see the queen in person.
Adu waited for us outside the Yongan Temple, because she was unwilling to remove the golden sword on her body, nor was she too far away from me.
Actually, the queen looks pretty. She is not Li Chengyin’s mother-in-law. Li Chengyin’s mother-in-law is Concubine Shu. Legend has it that she is an unparalleled beauty who is loved by the emperor. Unfortunately, she just gave birth to Li Chengyin. Soon he died of illness. The queen had never given birth, so she took Li Chengyin to the central palace to raise her up, and then Li Chengyin became the righteous prince.
The queen said a lot to me, I didn’t really understand it to be honest, because it was too literal...the queen might have seen my face like falling into the clouds, and finally sighed: “You’re back It’s still too young, why don’t you care about things in the East Palace at all? Forget it, I ordered people to clean up a secluded palace, and order Na Xu Niang to enter the palace to wait for delivery. As for Zhao Liangdi, you have to comfort me, don’t let Yin Trouble."
I finally understood these few words. The queen said something to Yong Niang again, and she still said it literally. I guessed it was criticizing Yong Niang for not teaching me, because Yong Niang's face was like ashes and she kept kneeling there and repeating: "The death of slave and maid."
It's boring to see the queen, and even more boring to be trained. I secretly used my toes to draw circles on the carpet. The carpets here are all Tuhulusuogong. The long fluff is as soft as snow when I step on it. When I draw a circle, the flowers on the carpet will become white. When I drew the direction, the flowers on the carpet returned to their original colors... I used my toes to paint again, and the flowers turned white again... I was having fun when I suddenly heard the queen cough and looked up to see that she was staring. I.
I quickly sat down and drew my feet back into my skirt.
Coming out of Yong'an Hall, Yong Niang said to me: "Princess, you should be compassionate and compassionate to slaves and maids. If you cause trouble again, you will not regret the death of slaves and maids..."
I said impatiently: "I know, I have been locked in a house copying books for so many days, so there is no trouble!"
Yongniang comforted me and said: "The princess is indeed very obedient these few days, but the queen asked the princess to comfort Zhao Liangdi, and the princess must go and see her."
I slapped my finger boredly, and said angrily: "Li Chengyin forbids me to approach the place where the woman lives, so I don't want to see her, otherwise Li Chengyin will quarrel with me again."
"This time is different. This time the princess did the Queen’s will and can go to see Zhao Liangdi in a fair manner. And taking this opportunity, the princess should show goodwill with Zhao Liangdi. Zhao Liangdi is worrying about Xu Niang. Zhao Liangdi will certainly feel very grateful for the concubine's intention to make friends. If the crown prince can fix it with Zhao Liangdi at this time, even if Xu Niang gives birth to a boy, it will certainly not be a climate..."
I don’t know what Yong Niang thinks all day long, but she used to be the most trusted female officer of the Empress Dowager. Before I was formally registered as a princess, she was sent to my side to accompany me to study registration. Ceremony of ceremony. Then she accompanied me through the most difficult years in the East Palace. At that time, Li Chengyin didn't pay attention to me at all. The East Palace had a pair of snob eyes. When I first arrived, I was from Xiliang and was often laughed at. Even the internal officer as a handyman dare to bully me. I missed my home so badly. All day long, I only knew that I was crying in my arms, crying and crying, and I had a serious illness. Li Chengyin even insisted that I was pretending to be sick and would not let people tell the hospital and the palace. At the end, the dripping water didn't get in. It was Yong Niang and Adu who stood by my bed, feeding me a spoonful of soup medicine, and he just snatched me back from the Lord Yan.
So although she sometimes thinks very strangely, I will follow her a little bit. After all, besides Adu in the East Palace, it is Yongniang who is really kind to me.
"Well then, I'll go see her."
"Not only to visit, the princess should also give Zhao Liangdi a few rare gifts to win her over."
A rare gift, what is a rare gift?
I think hard.
Finally, I solemnly selected a pair of bows and arrows for Gaochang's tribute, two boxes of jade chess pieces, a few pairs of bone crutches to hold on to, and passion fruit wine for tribute. When Yong Niang saw these things, the expression on her face was very strange.
"Uh...These are good things that I think are quite rare." I looked at Yong Niang's face, "Don't you feel bad?"
Yong Niang took a sigh of relief and said, "Let the slave and maid choose a few gifts for the princess."
