Li Neishi looked at the sun and patted his thigh: "Hey, I don't agree with you, go to the palace quickly, if it is late, or if you resist the order, watch your head."

As soon as the words fell, he stomped away.

Liu Luoyi took a deep breath, and looked up at the carriage parked at the door.That painting, what can a painting have, she thought of the letters and portraits she found with Yu Chili that day, and she was even more worried.

"Miss Liu, I'll go with you." Xin Ran said hastily.

"Okay, Miss Xinran, please tell Wenshang to watch at the door. As soon as the princess comes back, tell her that I was called into the palace by the emperor." Liu Luoyi looked calm.

Xin Ran nodded and quickly ran away.

Liu Luoyi put her hand on her chest and held the jade pendant, feeling that the jade pendant that was originally cold seemed to suddenly become hot.

Probably because she was too nervous, Liu Luoyi thought, when she walked forward again, her eyes were firm and resolute.

The speed of the carriage was very fast, maybe it was because Liu Luoyi was nervous, so he felt that he had arrived at the gate of the palace in the blink of an eye, the driver took out his token and shook it, and then drove directly into the palace.

Liu Luoyi opened the curtain and looked out. The red palace walls stood tall, and only a small piece of square sky could be seen. Occasionally, a few birds passed by, and they were also in a hurry.

Majestic, depressing.

The last time I came in, I didn't feel this way, probably because Yu Chili was by my side.

"Miss Liu, don't be afraid. The princess told me to protect you before she left, so if they dare to do anything to you, I will send you out even if I risk my life." Xin Ran said aside.

Liu Luoyi smiled gratefully at her, and the last bit of fear in her heart disappeared.

The carriage wobbled to a stop, Liu Luoyi got out of the carriage, in front of him was an arched courtyard gate, and further inside was the emperor's study.

She took a deep breath and strode in. Several young eunuchs at the door shouted Liu Luoyi's name to inform her. She walked in with her head down, and knelt down in front of the table.

"My servant has seen the emperor." She said word by word.

Shen Hao sat in front of her, propped his chin with one hand, looked at her with his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Raise your head."

Liu Luoyi complied, but her eyes were still lowered.

Shen Hao's eyes can be described as ever-changing in an instant, first surprised, then ecstatic, and then, returning to a frightening calm, even more bottomless.

He stood up suddenly, leaned slightly, and looked at Liu Luoyi's face carefully. Liu Luoyi felt uncomfortable when he looked at him, but he didn't dare to answer.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Hao finally said, "You are Liu Luoyi, Liu Ru's daughter?"

"Yes." Liu Luoyi replied.

"Look at me." Shen Hao said again, Liu Luoyi didn't dare to disobey, she raised her eyes, and was looking at Shen Hao, at that moment, Shen Hao's eyes made her break out in cold sweat.

Shen Hao suddenly stretched out his hand, intentionally reaching out to Liu Luoyi, Liu Luoyi suddenly seemed to be startled, knelt and backed up, and increased the volume: "Your Majesty!"

When Shen Hao was called out by her, his hands froze in the air. He suddenly let out a long sigh, stood up straight, picked up a rolled up painting from the table case, pinched a corner, and shook it away.

"Who did you study under?" he asked.

Liu Luoyi calmed down, and tried to keep neither humble nor overbearing: "Back to the emperor, the master of the government school taught me a little bit, and the slaves taught themselves a little bit."

In that painting, the mountains and rivers are hazy, the sea of ​​clouds and the flowing water are white and connected together, and there is a light boat rippling in the mist. There are two people standing on the boat, one slightly taller and the other slightly shorter, standing opposite each other.

The two people are outlined with a few strokes, only a vague outline can be seen, but they are extremely vivid. It can be seen that they are both women, and their tastes are also different. The scenery is simple, but the artistic conception is far away.

"The pen and ink are endless and the meaning is endless. You are a talented woman, if I let you stay in the palace, you are willing." Shen Hao suddenly said this out of nowhere.

"I don't want to." Liu Luoyi said decisively without even thinking about it.

There was no surprise in Shen Hao's eyes, he slowly walked back to the table, sat down, and said in a deep tone, "I can order you to be exempted from slavery now, you have to think about it, and if you stay by my side, you will enjoy the benefits." Endless glory and wealth. But if you resist the decree..."

Liu Luoyi didn't know where the courage came from, she suddenly raised her head, looked straight at Shen Hao, without fear: "No matter what the consequences are, I will not be willing."

She thought of her mother, and when she looked at Shen Hao again, she felt very disgusted in her heart.

Shen Hao was slightly stunned, Liu Luoyi's eyes at this time were resolute and stubborn, after all, he looked very much like that old friend.

And that unconcealed disgust.

When Liu Luoyi tensed his heartstrings and adjusted his mentality of seeing death as home, Shen Hao suddenly waved his hand and said, "Go down."

Liu Luoyi was a little surprised, but she didn't say much, she stood up quickly, stepped back out of the study door, and when the light from outside shone on her, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When I touched my cheek with my hand, it was full of sweat.

In the room, after Liu Luoyi's back disappeared, Shen Hao sat down slumped, as if he had aged ten years in an instant, all the emotions just now disappeared without a trace, only his whole body was slumped.

He picked up the painting on the table and looked at it carefully before his eyes. He only knew that Cheng Qiqi had two heirs, but he didn't know that Liu Luoyi's appearance was almost exactly the same as hers.

And that cold and stubborn body, he always felt in a trance that she was standing there.Even the talent for painting has been inherited by this couple.

He even had some other thoughts, but he didn't expect that Liu Luoyi also had such a staunch temperament, even better than Qi Cheng Qilai.

Shen Hao stood up, looking at the palace wall in the distance, always felt that this huge palace was more and more like a cage, no one could keep it, the so-called comfort was more oppressive.

He picked up the teacup on one side, and suddenly it fell to the ground. Feeling that he was still depressed, he simply smashed everything on the table to the ground. This movement attracted people from outside, and he knelt down. land.

"Who offended Longwei and caused the emperor to be so furious!" Li Neishi knelt and walked a few steps forward, kowtowed.

Shen Hao threw away all his things, kicked Li Neishi on the shoulder again, kicked him all over the place, and then said sharply: "I have ordered Zhou Qing and others to come to see me quickly, and we have important matters to discuss." .”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Li Nei waiter responded repeatedly, and ran out staggeringly.

At the same time, Liu Luoyi was walking quickly towards the gate of the palace. When she came in, there was a carriage, and everyone was attentive, but when she returned, the carriage had gone to nowhere. way.

Xin Ran asked many people in succession, but the two still lost their way.

"Lost?" A voice sounded above her head, very calm and slightly hoarse.

She turned her head and saw a middle-aged man standing in front of her. The man looked very calm. Although he was not young, he did not have the old and decadent temperament of ordinary elderly officials. Instead, he had a quiet bookish look.

He pointed to the fork in the road, and said, "Go straight along there, and you will find the Nangong Gate."

Liu Luoyi was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly bowed his head in thanks: "Thank you, sir."

"My surname is Zhou, and my name is Zhou Qing. I'm an old friend with Mr. Liu, and it's just a matter of lifting my hands." The man stretched his sleeves, smiled, and turned to leave very politely.

Liu Luoyi froze on the spot.

No wonder she always had a sense of familiarity just now, it turned out to be him.

Liu Luoyi's mood was very complicated for a while, when she thought of this man's sanctimonious appearance and framed her father in prison, she felt a bone-biting resentment in her heart, but felt that this man looked nothing like she imagined, so it always made people feel A doubt about whether there is something else hidden.

She clenched her fists and remained silent for a while, then turned around and strode away in the direction Zhou Qing pointed at.

No matter what the reason for his sudden appearance in front of her is, if the enemy doesn't move, she won't move, and she must not panic.

The man pointed in the right direction, and after walking for a while, she saw the dark red palace gate. She walked to the gate, but was stopped by the guard at the palace gate with the back of a knife.

The guard looked at Liu Luoyi, a little girl who was not well dressed, so his tone was very ferocious, and he said impatiently: "You need a token to leave the palace, if you don't have one, go back, don't block the palace gate."

Liu Luoyi frowned, took the token from Xin Ran, handed it to the guard, and said coldly, "Open the door."

Unexpectedly, the guard snorted lightly, raised his hand to open Liu Luoyi's hand, and shouted with his eyes wide open: "This is a token for entering the palace, it is not for leaving the palace, get out of here quickly, be careful that brothers will not show mercy."

"What the hell, you bully people as soon as you come up, when did you hear that you need two tokens!" Xin Ran was furious, standing upright in front of Liu Luoyi, and yelled back at the guard.

"Hey, the two little maidservants are quite aggressive. Don't look where this is, be careful that the grandpas will cut you with a knife!" The man raised the knife in his hand and gestured at Liu Luoyi's face.

Liu Luoyi clenched her teeth and didn't back down at all. Just now in the palace, she saw the anger accumulated by the hated people burst out at this moment. She pulled out Xin Ran's sword from its scabbard, and pointed it at the guard with a swipe. throat, said coldly: "Come on, you should try!"

The guard really didn't expect the fragile woman in front of him to have such courage, so he backed away in fright. He was just trying to show his power and prestige to scare people, so how dare he really do it at the gate of the palace.

Now that Liu Luoyi has threatened her so horribly, she doesn't know what to do.

At this moment, the palace door suddenly opened slowly, and a figure appeared on the opposite side of the door, it was Yu Chili, she was sweating profusely, and the hair hanging from her forehead was stuck to her face. Qinggong came all the way over the eaves and walls.

She took two quick steps forward and saw Liu Luoyi head on.

"Xiao Liu'er, you are..." She said dully, just now she dragged the dead dog-like Yu Chidie back to the mansion, when Liu Wenshang said that Liu Luoyi was called by the emperor.

This was okay, so she turned around and ran in a hurry, rushing over as fast as she could, who would have seen this kind of scene as soon as they met.

Her little Liu'er was holding a sword aggressively, forcing a tall and strong guard to retreat steadily.

Liu Luoyi also stared blankly at Yu Chili, one person was outside and the other was inside, their eyes met each other, she knew that she was here to look for her, at this moment, everything around her was not important anymore.

A huge sense of grievance suddenly overwhelmed her, Liu Luoyi threw down the sword, and tears rushed out of her eyes, almost crying in the blink of an eye, standing there, extremely pitiful.

When Yu Chili saw this, the surprise she had just forgotten had long since been forgotten, she was furious, she took a step forward, and directly kicked the guard who was still standing there stupidly.

The guard rolled to the ground, ignoring the pain, just looked at Liu Luoyi in astonishment, this girl was cold and fierce just now, why did she change her face in such a short time?

Xin Ran was also very surprised and opened his mouth wide.
