014 Assassin's Raid
While I was thinking hard, I suddenly felt two sharp eyes, and I immediately looked up.
The emperor rested his hands on the window sill and looked at me with surprise.
He finally found me.
I felt inexplicably happy because the first person to discover me was not the guards, but him. Just like on his wedding night, he was the only one who could resonate with me and feel my existence. This is
Doesn't it mean that I am special to him and that he can always know my exact location?
I smiled at him and waved. The emperor did a move that was beyond my expectation - he jumped out of the window!
Oh my gosh, those high-end silk embroidery materials can be crocheted!
The guards waiting outside the palace immediately saluted him respectfully. The little emperor looked past them without squinting, and walked quickly towards me. His steps were a little eager, and in the end, he actually trotted all the way to the tree, panting.
looked up at me.
What a lovely child. Those clothes must be very heavy, right? I didn’t expect that he was so concerned about Concubine Liu’s safety. So what happened to those men in black yesterday?
I gave him a friendly smile. "Good morning, Your Majesty. I am in a tree and cannot see you. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
Unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, his face turned ugly, and he stared at me with hazy eyes. Then he turned away with a look of disgust, walked a few steps outside, and said unhappily: "Hello, my beloved concubine."
Xingxing is actually hidden in the woods, making it easy for the female officials to find it. Didn't the etiquette officer tell you that today is the day of the ceremony, so you need to prepare as early as possible? How can it be a trivial matter at such an important moment!" Then he turned around and said to those few people.
The accompanying guard said: "Please come down and leave it to the etiquette officer and the nuns to help take care of it. Don't miss the time." After saying this, he left without looking back.
Looking at his back, I felt disappointed.
Back in the palace, the maids and nuns had no time to blame me, and they didn't dare to blame me, so they immediately got busy. I sat quietly at the dressing table, letting five or six hands play with my body and head, feeling like a puppet.
It's just that I've been wondering, the little whale was obviously very happy when he found me, but when he came in front of me, his face was full of disgust? Could it be that he mistakenly identified me as someone else at first? I don't know which woman was in the emperor's house
She occupies such an important position in his heart that he doesn't even care about his manners? His favorite Concubine Yun just passed away a few days ago, and now he is thinking about someone else? What a perverted woman, full of thoughts!
I also praised him for not recruiting concubines to sleep with him casually, but it turned out that he had already moved in with his concubines, and I don’t know how many of them he had!
After finishing dressing up, surrounded by the palace maids, with more than ten kilograms of jewelry on my head, and full of anger, I followed the emperor closely. Following the instructions and prompts of the etiquette officer, I played my role in a hazy manner, holding this ceremony.
A ceremony to worship heaven and ancestors.
After lunch, I planted dogwood trees, then climbed up to take in the panoramic view of the mountains, listened to the accompanying students reciting poems and songs, and sang praises for the emperor; then went down the mountain to inspect the people's sentiments, walked through the field ridges, and passed by the grain-drying field, which almost didn't break my heart.
Legs, but I still have to put on the most friendly smile on my face, express condolences to local farmers, and distribute gifts from the royal family. I am almost becoming a full-time royal ambassador, and my facial muscles are almost cramped.
Yaya, if the queen has to do this every year, I'd better not climb up to that position. It's so comfortable to be a idle concubine in the palace! Why bother to go out and tire yourself!

Lin Jingyu looked at the imperial concubine next to him who was impeccable from appearance to temperament, from elegant words and deeds to gentle attitude towards others, and he secretly praised in his heart. It's a pity... she is that person's daughter. Although it is a pity to kill her, it is
Can't keep it either.
Last night, I originally wanted a few confidants to kidnap her, find a dark corner to give her... let her experience the suffering Yunyue had suffered, and finally throw her into the cold palace for losing the royal face.
, granting death and destroying Liu Xiang's momentum. Who would have thought that she was not in the palace. Where did this little woman go last night? Or did someone leak the news and let her avoid it deliberately? This morning, why did she do it again in her bedroom?
Did he appear outside the palace to monitor himself...
He glanced coldly at Concubine Liu, not wanting to meet her bright eyes, and smiled at himself.
He averted his eyes in panic and looked away, but he didn't see the loneliness flashing in those bright eyes.

After inspecting the people's sentiments, having dinner in a folk house, drinking chrysanthemum wine and eating Double Ninth Festival cakes with everyone, today's complicated ceremony is finally over.
Riding on the setting sun and covered with glow, we returned to the capital along the original route.
The bloody setting sun illuminated the entire dragon chariot red. Sitting in it, I actually had the illusion of sitting on a red sedan. Time seemed to go back a few days. Back to the day when Liu Susu got married, she was dressed in red robe and holding a
The urn spoke to me timidly. This was the first person who could talk to me. Now, I am her, but where has she gone? Logically speaking, this body is so healthy that the soul will not leave easily.
. Could it be that just like the day the little emperor fell into trouble, he was frightened and his soul was sleeping somewhere in his body?
——Is it here?
Putting my hand on my heart, I pressed gently...
As a result, there was no flutter at all, and I couldn't feel the fluctuation of another emotion at all.
I sighed, raised my eyes and took a sneak peek. The emperor was sitting next to me upright, with his lips pressed tightly and his face expressionless.
It was very quiet along the way. We sat in the dragon chariot and no one spoke. The emperor felt that he had nothing to say, but I was too tired to move and didn't even bother to say anything. This time, he didn't say anything.
I'm dizzy...
"Your Majesty, why don't you stay one more night in Zhaoyang Mountain and rush back all night? It might be unsafe on the way." I couldn't help but speak.
"It doesn't matter. I have arranged for Ouchi guards to escort me along the way. I trust them."
"I hope so." I lowered my eyes and saw the emperor's hand trembling slightly. It seemed that he had made a decision long ago, but I didn't know whether this decision was good or bad for me.
I couldn't help but have a wry smile on my lips. I hope you don't really want to take my life, right?
I lay on the soft couch in my clothes and couldn't fall asleep for a long time. I heard the suppressed breathing coming from beside me, which was a bit chaotic and a bit rapid. I couldn't help but sigh to myself. He was waiting for someone, or waiting for something to happen.
Should I take precautions as soon as possible to save my life? But, I feel a little unwilling to leave him just because of the situation...
I quietly turned around and saw that he was sleeping with his eyes closed, his long eyelashes were slightly raised, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed together, as if he was very uneasy. A few hairs stuck to the corners of his eyes, which made his profile even thinner and as handsome as a sculpture.
, his facial features are exquisite, as flawless as jade. What a beautiful boy...
With a thought in my heart, I quietly brought my face closer and put my lips to my own.
Before I could succeed, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded outside, and the beautiful eyes in front of me suddenly opened, shining brightly with a moist light, like bright morning stars. However, those pupils were as clear as obsidian.
In the middle, there is a reflection of a drooling woman with a bewildered expression on her face, which is very out of place.
I was startled and immediately backed away. The emperor was also frightened and looked at me dumbfounded.
"Hey, um, seeing that you look dissatisfied with your desires, I just want to comfort you." I concealed my evil deeds with a guilty conscience, completely forgetting how disrespectful I was to call him.
He blinked, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the noise and fighting outside. It seemed that what was supposed to come was coming.
With a slight sigh, I turned over and sat up, and began to take off the heavy accessories on my body. Finally, I even took off the heavy outer robe, wearing only the middle coat and underwear, tied up my belt, and prepared to run away. I thought about it carefully.
, in order to have enough money in the future, I still picked a few gold hairpins and pinned them around my waist to be prepared. After that, I found a thin rope and tied up my long hair casually.
"What are you doing?" the emperor asked with anger on his face. His concubine actually paid no attention to appearance and was unbecoming of a woman!
"Escape!" I smiled at him.
"You - what are you talking about?" His face flushed red and he defended: "I told you, there are Ouchi guards to protect you, everything will be fine!"
"The Ouchi guards are the emperor's people, so they naturally want to protect the emperor. However, they may not be able to protect my concubines!" I still smiled and told the facts calmly.
His body trembled slightly and his face gradually turned pale.
