The sadistic beauty has taken a fancy to me [Transmigration Book]

Zhu Jiuci stared at the back of the beauty's white hand in a daze for a moment, why does the baby need to be washed with ice water?

"Can't you guess?" Liang Zhaoge shook his hand.

Zhu Jiuci shook his head.

Liang Zhaoge spread out his hand, a piece of chalcedony lay quietly in the palm, with a few drops of water on it, it was extremely clear, without any impurities, it was as if the ice water in the well had washed away the dust inside.

"Give it to the young master." Liang Zhaoge said with a smile.

Zhu Jiuci carefully pinched the cold chalcedony, feeling the clear coolness with his fingertips, and he didn't regain his senses for a long time.

It's the fourth one.

Liang Zhaoge lay down on the stone table, with his chin resting on the gorgeous silk sleeves, he raised his eyes to look at him: "Young Lord, don't be greedy, this is the last one."

Zhu Jiuci held the chalcedony in the palm of his hand, the coldness faded away and he soon became warm. Thinking of the words of the shopkeeper of Jinling Jade Shop, he hesitated to accept it, it is so precious...

Liang Zhaoge saw what he was thinking, got up and turned his hands behind his back, and dodged to the side, "There is no reason to take back the gift you gave." He turned and ran out of the water pavilion, leaving Zhu Jiuci alone behind.

Zhu Jiuci rushed out of Yushi Court and grabbed his sleeve, "Zhaoge don't go."

Liang Zhaoge turned to look at him: "What?"

Zhu Jiuci didn't know what to say for a while, and said casually: "That...why wash it with well water?"

Liang Zhaoge brightened his eyes and said, "It looks good after washing."

Zhu Jiuci: "..."

Leading the person back to Yushi Court, standing under the locust tree and asking him, "Why do you suddenly think of seeing me off?"

"Send it off if you want." Liang Zhaoge said briskly.

Zhu Jiuci stared at him, apparently in disbelief.

Liang Zhaoge had no choice but to shake his hands and said, "Young master, don't you understand, today's ancestor worship ceremony..."

Zhu Jiuci's heart ached.

Liang Zhaoge went on to say: "Today, the young man stands in front of Zhaoge—"

He suddenly bent over and kissed Zhu Jiuci's side, "Thank you, little prince." He blushed and ran away.

Zhu Jiuci stood there and his heart was beating like thunder.

When there was an urgent call from the night palace, the Holy Lord Xuan Xiao Gongye had an audience.

The oral order came from the personal eunuch next to the emperor. The father-in-law was standing outside the small gate of the mansion, wearing a black robe to cover it completely. Everyone in the mansion knew it. This party summoned secretly late at night, so that no one else would know. There must be something big.

Xiyuan was in a hurry, Zhu Jiuci took a bath overnight, changed clothes and rushed to the palace.

When she stepped into the Hall of Ronghe, Mei Xunxue was sitting in front of the desk in regular clothes, with her belt off, as if she was about to go to bed.

Zhu Jiuci hurriedly took two steps forward and knelt down: "I pay homage to the Holy Majesty."

Mei Xunxue stood up, with loose belts scattered by his side, he walked slowly from behind the table to Zhu Jiuci, "Get up, Yan Ning."

Zhu Jiuci stood up and took two steps back respectfully.

All the eunuchs and maids in the main hall retreated, leaving only the two of them. The censer smoked green smoke, ambergris overflowed, and the four square dragons and gold pillars were hung with lights, which were as bright as day.

"Zishi called you here, but it disturbed the rest?" Mei Xunxue smiled and went to the tea table, pointing to the gold silk soft chair opposite for Zhu Jiuci to sit down.

"I dare not."

Mei Xunxue raised her eyebrows: "When did the young master of the capital become so timid? There is no need to be nervous if there is no one else here."

Zhu Jiuci cupped his hands, went to sit opposite the tea table.

There are two small candles standing on the west side of the gold and jade case, the flames are bright and warm.Mei Xunxue was as gentle as usual, and her eyebrows and eyes were as watery and moist as jade after taking off the imperial crown.

Zhu Jiuci relaxed his mood and waited for the Holy Majesty to speak.

Mei Xunxue didn't say anything, and drank tea slowly.

The candle wick snapped and shook, becoming brighter and brighter.

Zhu Jiuci waited quietly for a long time. After drinking three cups of tea, tears fell to half his waist. He heard the emperor who had been sitting in the high hall for a long time say:

"Are you scared today?"

"Minister—" Zhu Jiuci stopped talking, if he said no, he would be deceiving the emperor.

He stood up and walked to the Holy Master and bowed in salute: "I kowtow to thank the Holy Master for his rescue."

Mei Xunxue supported him and did not let him kneel down.

"It's good if you don't get scared." He looked at the soft chair opposite and signaled Zhu Jiu to quit, "It's a child's heart at first, it's nothing, but those old officials," Mei Xunxue laughed. But as an emperor, it is not good for him to criticize his courtiers. He looked at Zhu Jiuci with the meaning you all understand.

Zhu Jiuci nodded apprehensively.

"I watched you grow up too, and the word Yan Ning was also bestowed by my relatives." Mei Xunxue held up the teacup, circling the rim of the cup with her fingertips.

"Being born in the Marquis's family must bear more than others." Mei Xunxue said.

Zhu Jiuci was in a daze, only feeling the warmth of the candlelight penetrate to the bottom of his heart along with the bright light, it turned out that the Holy Majesty called him into the palace urgently to comfort him.

The Holy Majesty was also worried that he was still thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors in the Duke's mansion, and it would be inconvenient to call in during the day, so he delivered the decree in the middle of the night.

Zhu Jiuci's eyes trembled, receiving the favor of the emperor for a while, he was really at a loss for what to do.

"Are you not afraid?" Mei Xunxue saw through his thoughts.

Zhu Jiuci was panicked again, he couldn't hold the tea cup firmly, and two or three drops of tea splashed out.

Mei Xunxue laughed loudly, her voice was as clear as jade hitting, echoing in the empty hall, the candle flames flickered.

"After the crowning ceremony, the little princes in the capital are really timid." Mei Xunxue smiled and shook her head.

There was warmth everywhere in the hall, and the emperor took off his airs and talked about the past with this weak young man.

He talked about the time when the child rode his horse across the street, talked about hunting people in Taiye Pond, and talked about the beard of the prime minister... The more he talked about the past, the less the emperor looked like the emperor on the dragon throne.

Zhu Jiuci answered obediently from the side, smiling more and more, the chatterbox gradually opened up, and occasionally he took the initiative to say a few words.

The candle was dimly lit, and the candle's tears fell on the gold and jade case, and the two talked for an hour.Mei Xunxue got up and said with her hands behind her back, "It's getting late, Yan Ning should go back."

Zhu Jiuci stood up, bowed and saluted, and walked away slowly with warmth all over his body. When he walked to the gate of the palace, there was a tall and majestic Xuanmen coiled with a golden dragon, with five sharp claws, glaring angrily.

The heavy palace door opened to both sides, and the ancient wooden carvings scratched across the ground and made an ancient hoarse sound. Behind him, the emperor's cold voice came: "Young Lord, I also want to know who I am helping today."

Zhu Jiuci tripped over the threshold and staggered out, the palace door closed suddenly, and the cold night wind blew him awake suddenly.

It was the Zhu family behind him who helped.

If there were no old general Zhu who is the Duke of the country and Mrs. Duke the Duke who is the first-rank general, Zhu Jiuci standing alone in the ancestor worship ceremony today would only be drowned by endless spittle.

The emperor's family is both affectionate and ruthless. The last sentence today, the Holy One clearly told him to save him - it was for the sake of the Duke's mansion. If after today, he Zhu Jiuci made another mistake, he would be helpless, even It will also drag down everyone in the Zhu family.

The night sky shrouded the depths of the palace, and the surrounding fields were full of trees and shadows. He stood in the empty deep garden of the palace, and the eunuch who led the way did not come for a long time.

It was only then that Zhu Jiuci suddenly realized that the person standing in front of him just now was the Nine-Five Supreme Being in the World, the emperor who could take life and death at a moment's notice, the emperor who could decide the fate of the marquis' family with a single word, and the emperor who could make the fate of the marquis' family overnight. He wished the whole family to become the king of a handful of loess.

Wen Run's consolation was nothing more than the emperor's etiquette. He was called into the palace tonight, and the whole hour-long talk was just for the last sentence.

I wish home.

Zhu Jiuci shuddered and stepped out of the ghost gate in an instant, a layer of cold sweat arose on his back. Looking back, he saw the majesty of the golden and green palace, and the octagonal cornice cast a shadow under the night sky, like a sword.

His heart was beating violently, he left in a panic, and walked down the white marble veranda step by step. His legs and feet were still weak, and beads of sweat were falling down. He had to stop and lean on the stone lions on the covered bridge to breathe with his head up.

"Little Grandpa?" An extremely weak voice in the darkness was barely audible.

Someone tugged at his sleeve, Zhu Jiuci looked down.

In the night, Pei Heng stood at the foot of the white marble steps and looked at him worriedly.

"Is the little prince okay?"

Zhu Jiuci couldn't believe it, he squatted down and looked at him through the white marble railing: "Why are you back?"

Pei Heng stood on tiptoe in the corridor and grabbed his sleeve: "I heard about that during the day, and I went back to the palace."

Zhu Jiuci apologized, "I—"

"You don't need to say, little grandpa. After all, I have nothing to do outside the palace. Going back to the palace a few days earlier is no different for me."

"How do you know I'm coming tonight?" Pei Heng shouldn't know about Zhu Jiuci's thoughts and secret edicts.

Pei Heng looked at him and said, "Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger."

In a simple sentence, Zhu Jiuci felt a pain in his heart.Pei Heng has lived in the palace for so many years, if he didn't know His Majesty's thoughts, he might not be alive today.To meet him tonight is probably because of troubles in the palace, and he has heard about it.It's just that the others pretended not to see, but Pei Heng came alone.

Pei Heng came out from the back of the stone steps, went around to the porch and ran up the stone steps, stood in front of Zhu Jiuci and said in a low voice: "If such a big incident happened, the Holy Majesty must have summoned him, but I didn't expect it to happen tonight." coming."

Zhu Jiuci bowed his head, and recalled the last words of the Holy Spirit just now, and his legs and feet were a little unsteady.

Pei Heng sighed, and led him on the way out of the palace.

"Young master is scared?"

Zhu Jiuci nodded truthfully.

Pei Heng stretched out his hand to push aside the branches blocking the way: "It seems that the young man really hasn't suffered."

"How do you say it?" Zhu Jiuci raised his eyes in confusion.

"If I guess," Pei Heng paused, said in a low voice that he didn't dare to criticize the Holy Majesty before continuing, "The Holy Majesty should have talked with you with a good face, and finally scared you?"

Zhu Jiuci paused: "Exactly...so."

Pei Heng burst out laughing: "Young master doesn't even understand the simplest truth, give a piece of candy and give him a slap, the words are rough and reasonable, do you understand?"

Zhu Jiuci's eyes trembled.

Pei Heng pulled him forward: "If you don't go there quickly, you won't be able to find the leading eunuch to go back, and you will suffer if you stay in the palace privately."

Zhu Jiuci hurriedly followed, but his mind was still thinking about what he said just now.

Pei Heng looked back and saw Zhu Jiuci foolishly pondering on his own, and couldn't help but pat his head: "Stupid Yan Ning, if the Holy Majesty knows that today's teaching only made you remember the words that scare you, I don't know how angry he will be."

The two walked out of the small path, the Kuanzheng Palace Road was not far away, the eunuch holding the cage was waiting beside the red wall, Pei Heng stopped, hiding in the shadows and said to him: "Young Lord, do you understand?"

Zhu Jiuci nodded.

The teaching of the Holy One is for vigilance, and it is the kindness of the emperor.Although the last sentence was a threat to the Duke of the State, it actually told him to be cautious in his words and deeds, so that he could no longer be childish.

"Go home, young master." Pei Heng stood under the tree, with two or two weeping branches blocking his face.

"then you……"

"Why are you so mother-in-law?" Pei Heng laughed dumbly, "I can't get lost while living in the palace, so go quickly."

Zhu Jiuci was pushed two steps away, and the eunuch who led the way saw him immediately, and came this way with small steps, so that he could no longer speak to Pei Heng, and could only watch his plain clothes disappear into the tree. actress.

The palace road is long, and the red walls and green tiles are covered by the night, leaving only a circle of light illuminated by a palace lantern and endless darkness.

Looking back, the Yanchi Tower stands majestically, and the deep garden of the imperial palace is hidden behind layers of red walls.

It's time for Zhu Jiuci to grow up following in the old palace's footsteps.
