Deep ice

Huaihuai rolled over under the quilt, facing the dead man, "Why do I always dream about you, who is Jiang Huaijin? Your wife?"

The dead man was sleeping on one side without any movement.

Huai Huai yawned, "Brother, you've been sleeping on my bed for a whole year without even saying a word, it's so insincere."

After waiting for a while, seeing that the dead man didn't respond, Huaihuai didn't bother to talk to him anymore, so he got up, put on his clothes and got out of bed.

After tidying himself up, he was about to open the door when he happened to meet Eunuch You who came in with a washbasin.

Eunuch You bumped into Huai Huai, his body became unsteady, some water in the brass basin came out, soaking the cotton robe.

"Ancestor, are you trying to kill our family this early in the morning?"

Huai Huai took a few steps back, seeing Eunuch You enter the room with a basin, he freed his hand to close the door, "Come here and wash your face, the meal has been prepared by the small kitchen, and it will be delivered later."

Huaihuai frowned, "I have to find Chunbao."

"Tomorrow, our family will go find it with you,"

Eunuch You was thinking about what Mr. Xi sent someone to tell him in the morning, so he soaked the towel in the basin, "You can't go anywhere today."

Huaihuai reluctantly went over to wipe his face twice, "It's so boring to be confined in this courtyard all day."

You Gonggong said: "You are healed and forget the pain. According to our family, you should be eunuched yesterday. After a few months of pain, you will be honest."

Huaihuai threw the towel into the water basin, thinking about leaving the house, the old eunuch tugged at the hem of his clothes tightly, "Wait a minute, after the morning ceremony, someone will come to see you, even if it's because of our old life For the sake of it, stay honestly for a day."

Huaihuai didn't understand what he heard, "Who's coming?"

You Gonggong said: "You don't need to worry about so much, as long as you can stay well, it is our family's blessing."

While the two were arguing, a little eunuch with a square face and yellow face entered the room with a food box. Without further ado, he put the food box on the nanmu food table inside, opened the lid, and put out two plates of dim sum buns. There is also a cup of rice porridge with nuts.

Huaihuai stopped talking to Eunuch You, followed the scent and went into the back room, sat in front of the food table and started gorging.

Before the little eunuch who took the food left, he took out a blue-glazed bowl from the bottom of the self-food box and put it in front of Huaihuai.

The thick black concoction exuded a faint bitterness, which made Huai Huai wrinkle his nose.

Eunuch You finally breathed a sigh of relief, "After eating, don't forget to drink the medicine."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly turned around and left the house.

Thinking about taking advantage of Huaihuai's eating and flying time, he locked the palace door, so as not to follow him and look behind him, and bother him.

After Huaihuai finished his meal, he poured the medicine into a flower pot in the corner, wrapped his clothes in a padded jacket, and pushed the door out of the house.

The silver presses the green pine, and the snow dances back in the wind.

The eunuchs and palace daughters in the palace were all busy sweeping snow and dust, no one had time to talk to Huaihuai, Huaihuai was also happy, looking around for a while, seeing that Eunuch You was not there, then trotted all the way towards the palace gate.

-

early morning.

In the Golden Luan Hall, the emperor was furious.

Because of the successive defeats of the Ping army in the northern Xinjiang war, the Minister of the Ministry of War was dragged out on the spot and killed with a stick. He ordered Yang Fang, the governor of northern Xinjiang, to return to Beijing immediately to face the saint, and there was no room for error.

The outside of the Hall of Fushou was once again bloody and bloody, with scarlet dripping all over the ground, and it didn't take long for it to freeze into blood balls.

The ministers were trembling, bowed their hands and bowed their heads, and there was no sound at all.

On the dragon chair, Emperor Yuan Jing's murderous look remained undiminished,

"Retreat."

A group of courtiers shouted long live, kowtowed to the ground, and then carefully bowed and retreated.

Seeing the emperor standing up, Xi Lian, who was sitting on the golden lacquer seat in Nine Dragons, hurriedly bowed forward and followed behind out of the hall.

He hesitated whether to remind the emperor to visit Huai Huai.

Suddenly the westerly wind blew heavily, blowing down the snow on the upturned eaves, causing the ice crystals to fly away.

Yuan Jing stopped in his tracks and stood beside the white marble pillars of Panlong outside the hall, dressed in bright yellow brocade embroidered with dragons, which seemed to fly away in the wind.

Xi Lian raised his head, and saw that the man's face was reflected in the sunlight, white and transparent.

Yuan Jing's eyes fell in the distance, and the anger on his face completely disappeared, and it became a little more beautiful.

Xi Lian followed to look over, and saw that in the endless ice-white deep palace, the red plum blossoms in an unknown palace were growing well, sticking out their heads, like flames, burning a few spots of red, glaring like blood. Flying in clusters in the wind.

Yuan Jing said calmly: "Where does he live now?"

Xi Lian hurriedly lowered his eyes, "Go back to the emperor, and now I have moved to Huayu Palace, which is the place where Concubine Lian lived before. Since Concubine Lian passed away, Huayu Palace has been idle for several years, and it has only been cleaned recently. Let him live in it."

Yuan Jing said: "Show me your car, go to Huayu Palace."

Xi Lian was taken aback for a moment, and glanced at the four-clawed golden dragon crown on the emperor's head, "Your Majesty, forgive me for talking too much, I'd better change into ordinary clothes and go there. The journey to the Yuyu Palace is far away, and I'm afraid that the emperor will get tired wearing court clothes..."

Yuan Jing nodded and said nothing more.

After getting on the dragon chariot, he went back to the palace with Xilian and changed clothes, then headed towards Huayu Palace.

-

The gate of Huayu Palace has been in disrepair for a long time, and the vermilion paint is mottled, revealing the dark wood inside, which looks like a festering wound.

Huaihuai found a stone from the corner of the dilapidated palace wall, and smashed it on the black lock for a while.

The iron chain only had a few holes, and there was no other sign of damage.

Huaihuai threw stones, looked up at the vermilion palace wall in a daze.

It didn't take long before I got my attention again.

Eunuch You led a group of palace people to work, thinking that it was almost time, the stall of groceries in front of him made him even more impatient.

He didn't have time to think about where Huaihuai went, anyway, the door was locked with iron chains, so he couldn't run anywhere.

Huaihuai saw Eunuch You enter the house with a tray, so he turned to the big poplar tree next to the palace wall on the west side, spit into the palm of his hand, bowed his waist and stretched his strength, and climbed up the tree with a jerk.

Huaihuai carefully moved up the tree trunk, and finally got close to the crown of the tree. After measuring the height of the tree, which was almost the same as the palace wall, he boldly stretched his feet tremblingly.

The yellow mud tiles on the wall were stepped on by Huai Huai, and they fell on the ground outside the palace wall and smashed in two.

At the end of the snow field, some black boots suddenly turned out, leading the dragon chariot with yellow satin and curtains closer and closer.

A little sweat broke out on Huaihuai's forehead, he just thought about how to hang on to the wall, completely oblivious to the team below.

A group of people arrived at the gate of Huayu Palace, Xilian stopped the dragon chariot, looked up at the feet on the wall, his face was a little stiff.

"Who's on top?"

When Huaihuai heard the shouting from below, he thought that Eunuch You had seen it, and his heart sank, he closed his eyes and jumped directly onto the wall.

This jump was good, the yellow tiles on the wall crashed down, and all fell to the ground, and a few pieces almost fell on the horses pulling the chariot. Although the horses in the palace are well-trained, they were also scared Not lightly, the dragon chariot became a little unsteady as the planing hooves neighed.

Xi Liantong's face darkened immediately, "Bold!"

With great difficulty, Huai Huai stabilized his body on the top of the wall, desperately leaning on the wall, and looked down.

The group of people and horses stared angrily, all looking this way.

The carriage surrounded in the middle was extraordinarily gorgeous, a jade-white hand suddenly appeared from behind the brocade curtain, lifted the curtain, revealing a human face.

Yuan Jing frowned and looked out, and happened to meet the eyes of the man on the wall.

The pair of clear and bright eyes on the wall were staring at him, their eyes were scorching, and there was a childishness that he had never seen before.

But not long after, it was the familiar greed and ruthlessness.

Huaihuai froze on the wall, as if his mind had been burned.

There is a secret and ulterior feeling that swells from the heart, like a beast, wanting to chew, devour, eat this person bit by bit, or, want to eat into this person's body.

How would you describe the person in that sedan chair?

There are so many good people in this world, but this person's eyebrows and eyes grew to the tip of his heart, and just one glance aroused the thunder and fire of the day, which could not be contained.

The pair of pitch-black eyes behind the curtain were also staring at him, and after a fleeting moment of panic, there was a bone-chilling depth.

Huai Huai was so excited that he set up a tent with his lower body and pressed against the rough wall, feeling very uncomfortable.

Yuan Jing's heart tightened, she lowered her eyes, and put down the curtain.

Xi Lian glanced at the emperor, the subtle changes could not escape those long-sighted eyes, "Your majesty...?"

The voice behind the curtain was indifferent, but faintly filled with anger, "Send me! Go back to the palace!"
