Pour the glass

"Your Majesty, are you back?" Outside Jinlan Palace, Gong'e, who was waiting at the door, bowed respectfully to Concubine Shen, her voice seemed to be three points higher than usual.

In the inner hall of Jinlan Palace, clothes were strewn all over the floor, and the two who were lingering quickly separated.

"Why did Concubine Mother come back so soon?" Jing Rou looked at Shen Zhihuai who was at the side in shock and fear, her face was still blushing.

Shen Zhihuai took a deep breath, let himself calm down, and said seriously: "Your Highness, first tidy up the clothes on the ground, and I will leave here through the window first. If the empress finds out about this matter today, I'm afraid you and I will not have good luck." result."

"En! Zhihuai, I'll listen to you." Jing Rou nodded repeatedly, got out of bed wrapped in a brocade quilt, and hurriedly picked up her clothes on the ground.

Shen Zhihuai hurriedly put on his clothes, turned his head to see if there were any clothes left behind in the inner hall, he didn't find anything missing, so he ran to the window and opened it carefully.

"Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness has already rested, but you want to wake her up?"

Outside the inner hall, Gong'e's voice sounded.

Shen Zhihuai felt his heart beat three beats faster, his body had already moved out of the window, but Jing Rou suddenly grabbed the skirt of his clothes, he looked at Jing Rou in astonishment.

Jing Rou fiercely kissed him on the lips, and said with a smile, "Don't forget today's promise, Zhihuai."

Shen Zhihuai nodded emphatically, motioning for her to loosen her skirt,

Jing Rou let go of her hand with nostalgia, Shen Zhihuai jumped off the window eaves with a point on her toes, and quickly disappeared into the palace road.

"What a strong smell of wine!" Outside the inner hall, Concubine Shen smelled the smell of wine wafting from the inner hall, raised her eyebrows and looked at Gong'e, "Is Yinger really asleep, or really drunk?"

"Return...return to your mother's words...Princess...Princess, she..." Gong'e didn't know how to answer Shen Guifei's words at all. If Shen Guifei knew that someone was staying in the princess' bedroom tonight, they might lose their heads.

Jing Rou heard the voice outside the hall, fearing that Gong'e could not help telling the truth, she quickly put on her inner clothes, walked to the door of the hall quickly, opened the door hastily, and said to Concubine Shen: "Mother, concubine, today My son drank a few glasses of wine and felt a little unwell, so he went to bed early, the working mother and concubine were worried, and my son was really ashamed."

Concubine Shen looked at the blush on Jing Rou's face, "Look at your face, it's not just a few glasses, I'm afraid it's a few pots of wine."

Jing Rou quickly caressed her own cheeks, feeling hot.

Concubine Shen Gui stepped into the inner hall, only to feel that in addition to the strong smell of alcohol, there was also a hint of ambiguity that shouldn't be there. Her sharp eyes roamed the hall over and over again, and finally fell At the wine table in the inner hall, he asked suspiciously: "You drink from two cups by yourself?"

"..." Jing Rou suddenly became anxious, pointing to one of the glasses in a hurry and said, "I'm so bored tonight, so I invited Miss Chu Shan to drink with me. She saw that I drank too much, so she asked me to drink." Let me rest and leave first." After finishing speaking, she gave Gong'e a wink at the door, and angrily shouted: "Are you dumb? Tell your concubine mother!"

"Chu Shan?" Concubine Shen thought for a while, Jing Rou is indeed the closest to Chu Shan on weekdays, and the invitation to drink at night is probably because Chu Shan is going to marry, the two sisters are deeply in love, maybe there will be more Have a few drinks.

"Returning to the imperial concubine, it is indeed as Her Royal Highness said." Gong'e quickly knelt down and replied, her head hit the ground heavily.

Concubine Shen's eyes fell on the messy bed again, "Ying'er, you wouldn't mess up this quilt like this when you sleep on weekdays," she said, then she was about to go forward and help her tidy up.

Jing Rou hurriedly ran to the bedside, held Concubine Shen's hand, and pulled Concubine Shen to sit down, "Mother Concubine, let the slaves do this kind of thing, it's getting late, you should be early Just some rest."

Concubine Shen Gui shook her head, patted Jing Rou's hand lightly in relief, and said with a smile: "It seems that your sisters talked a lot tonight, you actually know how to cherish mother and concubine, mother and concubine feel very relieved."

Jing Rou was stunned, and quickly leaned against Shen Guifei's arms, "Mother Concubine, in the past, my ministers were too ignorant and always showed off in the palace. In the future, my ministers must change their ways and love Mother Concubine more."

Concubine Shen gently stroked the back of Jingrou's head, "It's okay, the days are still long, in the future my Ying'er will marry a good man, and live happily ever after."

"I believe... that person will be good to me." Jing Rou raised the corner of her mouth slightly, smiling happily.

"Hehe, as long as Ying'er listens to her mother and concubine, she will be happy in this life." Concubine Shen nodded firmly, and out of the corner of her eyes, she caught sight of a piece of water-blue cloth under the corner of the quilt, and she couldn't help but put the cloth on the corner. She pulled it out, and after seeing it clearly, she realized that it was the belt of the captain of the imperial guard camp. She stood up in shock and asked Jingrou, "This is the belt of the captain of the imperial guard camp. Why is it?" Will it be in your bedroom?"

"My son... my son..." Jing Rou only felt that everything that was concealed before would be ruined by this belt.

"Is it Chu Shan or someone else who came here tonight?" Shen Guifei asked again angrily.

Jing Rou thought for a while, and suddenly thought of an excuse, she quickly tore off the belt from the concubine mother, and said aggrievedly: "Concubine mother, you don't believe my son, who is a princess after all, how could you ignore the palace rules and invite me late at night?" A man enters the inner hall to drink?"

Shen Guifei still looked at her angrily, waiting for her to explain the matter clearly.

"This belt was secretly prepared by Erchen, the princess of Chushan, as a gift for Captain Qi." Jing Rou pouted, and looked at Shen Guifei, "Mother and concubine don't often say that this person is reliable." Beloved, can you let me get closer to him? He received a few whips here that day, and I think he must have resentment in his heart, so I want to give him a gift..."

"Captain Qi?" Shen Guifei asked subconsciously.

"It's this idiot!" Jing Rou was filled with anger as soon as he mentioned this person, "Didn't Miss Chushan go out with him these days? She just returned to the palace today, and she was invited by her son, so she took this belt with her." If you don't believe me, you can ask the imperial sister."

Concubine Shen looked at Jing Rou dubiously, and thought that Jing Rou had never concealed anything from her since she was a child, so naturally what she said today is also the truth.

"Qi Ziyuan, it's really a pity." Shen Guifei murmured suddenly, and patted Jing Rou on the shoulder, "Perhaps I can meet a better lover in the future, so don't give this belt away. "

Thinking that she was already preparing to leave Lin'an, Concubine Shen only felt a little pity that this marriage could not be facilitated.

"My son listens to my mother and concubine." After speaking, Jing Rou deliberately sneezed.

"You child, you have been talking with your mother and concubine for so long in such a short dress, hurry up and lie down on the bed." Shen Guifei commanded distressedly.

Jing Rou nodded repeatedly, quickly got under the quilt, and wrapped herself up.

"Mother Concubine..." Concubine Shen Gui was about to tuck Jingrou under the quilt when Jing Rou opened her mouth again, "Mother Concubine should also go to rest earlier. Tomorrow, Erchen will go to see Huangjie first, and tell her not to tell the truth." Captain Qi, I'm going to give him the belt, otherwise, if I don't give it after talking about it, others will think I'm stingy."

Concubine Shen sighed and said with a smile: "Don't worry, since this is a secret between the two of you sisters, Concubine Mother will not reveal it. People in this palace speak formidable words, Concubine Mother does not want to make any more troubles at this juncture. After finishing speaking, Concubine Shen glared fiercely at Gong'e at the gate of the palace, "I'm so good at serving Your Highness the Princess, don't let out a single word of tonight's affairs, otherwise, you will understand what will happen."

"promise."

"I'm tired too, Ying'er, you can take a rest." Concubine Shen Gui walked out slowly after finishing speaking.

"Ah."

Seeing Concubine Shen go away, Jing Rou hurriedly signaled Gong'e to close the palace door again, then let out a long breath, looked down at the belt in her hand, with a happy smile on her face, and murmured One sound, "Zhihuai..."

At the same time, Shen Zhihuai walked a long way out of Jinlan Palace, only to realize that he was missing his belt. Just as he was about to go back, he was startled by someone standing under the palace wall, who seemed to have followed him all the way for a long time.

"who?!"

After Shen Zhihuai asked this sentence, he realized that he was the only one in the huge palace road at the moment, and none of the palace guards who were supposed to patrol came here.

The person who came was wearing a gluttonous mask, and his voice was hoarse, "How does Vice Captain Shen feel tonight?"

As soon as he heard this voice, Shen Zhihuai's vigilance disappeared instantly, and he replied coldly: "I really never thought that the food that Gong'e sent on weekdays was actually a trick of Princess Jingrou."

"Once a woman falls in love with a man, no matter how savage she is, she still has a tender side. Does Vice Captain Shen feel ecstasy like this tonight?" The man in black continued to ask in a hoarse voice.

Shen Zhihuai had mixed feelings in his heart, for a moment he didn't know how to answer the man in black's words.

"You didn't say anything, do you still feel pity for Ye Yingxi?" the man in black asked again.

Shen Zhihuai shook his head violently, "I only want Princess Chushan, and Princess Jingrou is just a pedal." After finishing speaking, Shen Zhihuai looked at the man in black, "I have taken down Princess Jingrou according to what you said. , when will the reward you promised me be honored?"

"Hehe, don't worry, sometimes it's about retribution, it's not that you don't repay, it's just that the time hasn't come yet." The man in black let out a hoarse smile, "You just need to do one more thing for me, the lives of Cao's father and son, It will be yours in three days, and Princess Chushan's body will be yours in three days."

"What's the matter?"

"Three days later, on Princess Chushan's wedding day, you borrow Jing Rou's love for you and let Jing Rou obediently come to the wedding ceremony."

"The princess is getting married, why doesn't she come?"

"That's not necessarily the case. Some chess pieces are so smart that they will escape this game self-righteously."

"piece?"

The man in black suddenly let out a strange and sinister smile, his dark green eyes looked at the highest point of the imperial city far away, and said to himself with deep meaning: "This time, you have completely lost, Xiao Xiao!" stack snow."
