Pour the glass

"Tata! Tada! Tada!..."

The horseshoe galloped, and Ziyuan finally arrived at the outskirts of Haoling at noon, but suddenly stopped the horse abruptly just as she was about to enter the divine way of Haoling.

"Qi Duwei, you are finally here." The guard on duty bowed to meet Ziyuan, holding the bridle for Ziyuan, "The prince and the young general have been waiting for a long time."

"Your Majesty?" Ziyuan was stunned for a moment. She knew that Shen Yuan was also here in Haoling, but she never expected that Cao Boxiao was also in Haoling. , What are you doing here?"

"Captain Qi, please." The guard guarding the mausoleum gave way to Zi Yuan, signaling Zi Yuan to go to see Cao Shizi and Young General Shen first.

Where does Ziyuan want to meet those two annoying playboys?But now he couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to follow the tomb guards into the hall of duty with a dark face.

"Captain Qi!"

Just as Zi Yuanfu stepped into the side hall, the two young men in fancy clothes who were whispering to each other suddenly stopped talking and called Zi Yuan happily.

"Come on, Captain Qi has worked hard all this way, sit down and rest quickly." Cao Boxiao looked Zi Yuan up and down, raised his hand, "Come here, prepare food and drinks for Captain Qi!"

"No!" The servant outside the hall took the order to retreat.

A trace of disdain suddenly appeared in Cao Boxiao's eyes, he coughed dryly twice, raised his hand and patted Ziyuan's shoulder, "Captain Qi is really thin, and the court is now employing people, so you have to take care of yourself. "Speaking, the strength of the shoulder pat increased a bit, and the place where it landed was the wound on Ziyuan's right shoulder.

Ziyuan gritted her teeth in pain, but she didn't get angry easily, so she could only reply tremblingly: "Your Majesty's teaching, the next official should take it to heart." Saying that, she took a step back just right, and bowed to Cao Boxiao.

Cao Boxiao slapped the air with his palm, feeling quite uncomfortable, he sneered and said, "Just remember."

Shen Yuan has long disliked Ziyuan, but since he has come here, it is impossible for him to see Su Zhexue. For Shen Yuan, this is also a good thing.

"I don't know why the son and General Shen have waited so long to be dismissed from office?" Ziyuan simply asked this sentence directly.

Shen Yuan contemptuously said: "Actually, it's nothing serious. The young general and his son have been guarding Haoling for seven days, but nothing has happened. The women in the palace are all safe and healthy." Saying this, Shen Yuan gave Cao Boxiao a wink. "Nine thousand years old is not in good health these days, so today I sent someone to call the son back. I hope the son will accompany him more, so the responsibility of guarding Haoling falls on you and me."

Ziyuan smiled and said, "It's natural."

"This young general has been awake day and night for the past seven days. It's really uncomfortable. Since Captain Qi is here, then the duty..." Shen Yuan dragged on deliberately.

Zi Yuan knew exactly what Shen Yuan was planning, "Naturally, the lower officials will take over, you two can rest assured."

"Very good!" Cao Boxiao laughed loudly, and gave Shen Yuan another wink, "It's quite desolate outside Haoling, if Young General Shen has nothing else to do, you can send me a ride first."

"No." Shen Yuan followed Cao Boxiao out of the side hall in response.

Zi Yuan was full of suspicion, and watched the two of them go away, always thinking that there must be something wrong with the sudden appearance of the two of them today!

"Qi Duwei, Your Royal Highness is here to invite you."

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded, and Ziyuan turned her head with a smile, and saw Jinnu, the old palace slave beside Princess Chushan.

"Okay!" Ziyuan replied happily, "It's been a while since I've seen you, but you are getting more and more energetic!"

Jinnu gave Ziyuan a blank look, "Stinky boy, don't think that you can talk nonsense when you become a high-ranking official. This is Haoling, so you must speak properly!"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Zi Yuan hurriedly clasped her fists seriously, and bowed to Jin Nu as if paying respects.

Jin Nu glared at Zi Yuan again, "Come with the slave."

Ziyuan followed Jinnu out of the side hall, walked around the forest of steles along the solemn corridor, and came to a pine forest.

Among the gaps in the forest, the sunlight poured down and lightly sprinkled on the green grass. From a distance, this piece of pine forest can be regarded as the warmest and most pleasant place in Haoling.

"You're here." Ye Lingxi, who was originally sitting under the green pine sipping tea, stood up with a smile, her eyes fell on Ziyuan, and what she couldn't hide was the suppressed joy in her eyes.

Today's Zi Yuan is wearing casual clothes of the imperial guards, with blue stripes on the white background, tight sleeves, a jade belt around the waist, and a high silver crown. Looking from a distance, he really can be regarded as a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth. Although the three finger marks on his finger had scabbed over now, when the scab fell off, some traces would eventually be left behind.

Ziyuan raised her eyebrows and said with a light smile: "The princess ordered, how dare you not come?"

Ye Lingxi smiled and said, "What if I don't order it?"

Ziyuan said seriously: "Of course I won't come! The injury on this body has not healed yet, and I was slapped hard by that Cao Shizi just now, and now I am in pain!" Raising his left hand, he gently rubbed his right shoulder.

Ye Lingxi's face darkened, and she asked, "He met you first?"

Ziyuan nodded and said, "What's wrong?"

Ye Lingxi hastily gave Jinnu a wink, "Jinnu, pass on the order from the palace to keep Shen Yuan! It is said that the palace lost a gold hairpin in the Haoling today, and it was Concubine Shen Gui in the palace and the hairpin. It was a gift from him in the year of the year, and must not be lost. He was sent to lead the troops to search for this palace in Haoling, if he could not find it, he had to personally accompany this palace to apologize to Concubine Shen Gui."

"No!" Jin Nu took the order and retreated.

Ziyuan asked confusedly, "Princess, what are you?"

Ye Lingxi smiled and said, "Two silverfishes who pretend to be clever have set up an impossibly stupid trap. When you step into it stupidly, tell me, are they stupid or you?" A little deeper, Ye Lingxi didn't realize that there was a touch of tenderness in her eyes looking at Ziyuan at this moment, which she had never seen before.

Ziyuan only felt that Ye Lingxi's eyes were burning today, but then she thought again, Ye Lingxi must have prepared a good show this time, so she was so happy, and said immediately: "As a princess Your Highness’s cows and horses can’t be stupid, otherwise how would they work hard for His Highness the Princess?”

Ye Lingxi shook her head and smiled lightly: "Qi Duwei came all the way, and I happened to make a pot of tea, please."

Ziyuan clasped her fists and replied, "I obey." Then she sat down with Ye Lingxi at the tea table.

Ye Lingxi poured a cup of hot tea for Zi Yuan with her own hands, and handed it to Zi Yuan, "This place is always clean, and there won't be anyone there for a while, but after all, the walls have ears, so I'll cut the long story short."

Ziyuan took the teacup, nodded and smiled, "But listen to the princess's orders."

Ye Lingxi smiled, but her voice was a bit deep, "Your head and Ben Gong's head will be tied together from tonight on."

Ziyuan coughed twice, "Princess, why did you suddenly mention such an unlucky word like your head?"

Ye Lingxi raised her eyebrows and smiled softly, "Are you scared?"

Zi Yuan straightened her waist and said with a smile, "How could I be afraid?"

Ye Lingxi smiled in satisfaction, as if she had guessed that Ziyuan would answer like this, "I want you tonight..." His voice sank, and it was three points lower than before.

Ziyuan had no choice but to move her face closer and listen carefully to what Ye Lingxi said later.

"I want you to steal the tomb together with me!"

Ziyuan's face darkened, and she stared at Ye Lingxi with her eyes wide open in shock, "Steal... steal Haoling?"

"Not bad." There was too much helplessness in Ye Lingxi's smile.

Ziyuan still didn't understand, "But... the graves of our ancestors have never been tampered with since ancient times, but you are here..."

"I just want to make my father get better, so I have to go into the mausoleum to take out the longevity cup." Ye Lingxi shook her head and said with emotion, "In today's big cloud, if the father falls, there will be chaos. I'm afraid that the country will not be a country, and the family will not be a family." After speaking, Ye Lingxi stretched out her hand and grabbed Ziyuan's arrow sleeve, "This palace has only one way to go, no matter whether it is life or death in the future, This is the only way to go!"

Ziyuan stared at Ye Lingxi in a daze, Ziyuan didn't listen to a word of the reasons she said just now, the only thing she heard in her head were those three words - Longevity Cup!

She thought it would take her a long time to find out the whereabouts of the Longevity Cup, but she didn't expect to have the opportunity to steal the cup just because she became the captain of the Imperial Guard.

My sister's mission, Ah Ling's freedom, as long as I get this longevity cup, I will be done!

The corners of Ziyuan's mouth gradually turned into a gleam of joy, she had already made up her mind that this trip to the tomb, no matter how dangerous it was, she had to do it.

"Captain Qi?" Seeing the smile on Ziyuan's face, Ye Lingxi asked suspiciously, "What are you thinking?"

Ziyuan came back to her senses, blinked her eyes, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, there must be many treasures in this underground palace, right?"

Ye Lingxi suddenly understood Ziyuan's meaning, and said in a disappointed voice, "I have explained in advance that you are not allowed to take the funerary objects in this underground palace!"

Ziyuan quickly waved her hand and said: "I don't want to take sheep by hand, I just want to ask for one or two from Your Highness. Think about it, Your Highness, although the world is peaceful now, there are always people who are starving. Those priceless things Just taking out one or two treasures can help many people in need, it's better than lying cold in the underground palace and being useless all the time, okay?" After finishing speaking, Ziyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thanking her brain The son turned around quickly, and didn't let Ye Lingxi ask her that strange smile just now.

This is the first time Ye Lingxi has heard people say that those valuable funerary objects can still be used in this way, and now she feels that the identification of Ziyuan just now is too biased, and she has a little more respect for Ziyuan in her heart, "Ben Gong I didn't expect that what you said is quite reasonable."

Ziyuan smiled triumphantly: "Of course it makes sense! Her Royal Highness grew up in the palace since she was a child. Most of the sufferings of the people are heard or seen from various reports. If there is a chance, Her Highness can go to the border gate to take a walk. There are still many people who can find that the people in this world are suffering, maybe this money will allow them to live in peace, and the head of the family will live happily ever after."

Ye Lingxi looked at Ziyuan fixedly, and said with a smile, "Qi Ziyuan, I always thought you were a glib little bastard."

"But even if you're a little bastard, your heart will be fleshy after all!" Ziyuan also smiled, and said solemnly, "The state-owned Chu Mountain, the blessing of Dayun, just rely on the two words Chu Mountain, Ziyuan Even if it is heartbreaking, I will die." After speaking, Ziyuan suddenly knelt up and bowed to Ye Lingxi.

"You... don't need to perform such a great gift!" Ye Lingxi stood up in a panic, and stretched out her arms to help Ziyuan up, but because she was too hasty, her palm was a little bit off, and her fingertips were caressing all the way from Ziyuan's chin. Leaving Ziyuan's lips, Ye Lingxi was so frightened that she hurriedly withdrew her hand.

Her heart was beating wildly, and Ye Lingxi felt a burst of heat spreading from her fingertips, causing her to yell in a panic: "You saluted indiscriminately, I almost touched the wound on your face again, you ...you..." Halfway through the story, Ye Lingxi couldn't continue, and Ye Lingxi just felt confused and didn't know what to do.

Ziyuan raised her hand and scratched the back of her head, and didn't think much about the intimate contact just now, thinking that the princess was concerned about the injury on her face, so she smiled and said, "It's okay, my sister said, as long as you have applied her medicine , when these scabs fall off, there won't be any marks on my face."

"Oh?" Ye Lingxi calmed herself down and answered.

Ziyuan nodded, "What the dignified Lin'an Huakui said is naturally believable. Think about it, my sister is so big, how could she not bump into it on weekdays, but have you seen any traces on her skin?"

Ye Lingxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "A dignified man, you actually used a woman's medicine to smear your face, you..."

Ziyuan suddenly felt that she seemed to have said something wrong, and quickly explained: "The little one is already a dignified captain of the imperial guards. You can't let yourself have three such claw wounds on your face all the time, right? That's why you give up your dignity as a man. , go to use this woman’s medicine, if the princess thinks it’s ridiculous, then make a joke, anyway, the little ones have used it, so I have to go all the way to the dark.”

Ye Lingxi smiled lightly, and didn't know how to answer the words for a moment, so she lowered her head and poured another cup of hot tea for Ziyuan, "After drinking this cup of hot tea, you go down and prepare, and at midnight tonight, you will come here to meet with me." This palace meets."

"No." Ziyuan nodded, rejoicing that she had escaped again, and secretly said: "Princess Chushan is very thoughtful, idiot, idiot, don't call you too much because of my sister, you really have become an idiot The secret of this daughter's body must never be exposed at this juncture!"
