[Tiansheng Long Song] Cinnabar

At night, Zhe Liu helped Ning Yao change and wash after serving her, and helped her to sit on the soft couch and read a book.

Gu Nanyi took the medicine bowl from Zheliu's hand and said, "I'll do it."

Zhe Liu nodded: "That's fine." He said again, "You stay with Your Highness well, I'll grind the medicinal materials for His Highness first." After finishing speaking, he closed the door and the hall was immediately clean.

He walked up to her with the medicine, and bent over awkwardly to give her the medicine. Ning Yao saw that his movements were uncomfortable, so he moved his position and made a place for him to sit down.

Ning Yao sighed softly: "Only in this kind of time, you can look at me directly."

Gu Nanyi was stunned for a moment, he quickly came back to his senses, and brought the cold medicine to her mouth, "Your subordinates dare not presume."

"I want you to look at me." Ning Yao raised his hand and grabbed Gu Nanyi's collar, leaning his face forward, his warm breath hit each other's faces, and even the sound of breathing became gentle and restrained up. "I want you to watch me!"

Gu Nanyi remained silent, before saying after a while: "It's too...too close."

"Is it near?" Ning Yao moved closer, turned his head to meet his eyes, his round eyes looked bright, and saw through Gu Nanyi's timid thoughts.

Gu Nanyi's neck suddenly became more than half red, his Adam's apple rolled, he didn't dare to breathe, and the hand holding the medicine bowl was trembling slightly. "Your Highness..."

"I'm just joking." Ning Yao sat back satisfied, leaned on the hidden pouch, and looked at Gu Nanyi's flushed face with great interest.

Sweat soaked his clothes, he just silently scooped up the concoction in the bowl, his eyes were full of shyness and timidity, he stared at Ning Yao stupidly, after a long time, he said: "Drink... ...take your medicine."

Ning Yao took the medicine bowl and drank it up, his eyes still did not leave Gu Nanyi's body.Gu Nanyi took the empty medicine bowl and served the candied fruit: "Eat a piece."

Ning Yao shook his head, "You are sweeter than candied fruit, I think you are enough."

Gu Nanyi lowered his head in embarrassment, coughed a few times, "The subordinate is resigning."

"Then what time do you go to bed?"

"I'll go back later."

"Then what if I'm in danger?"

"This subordinate has always been a light sleeper. Your Highness can call me at any time."

"Okay." Ning Yao pushed open the window and called to Zhe Liu, "Zhe Liu, give Gu Shiwei a bowl of egg flower syrup, it's a reward for you."

Gu Nanyi cupped his hands in thanks, "Thank you, Your Highness."

After all, Gu Nanyi raised his sword and left, Ning Yao held his chin and looked at Gu Nanyi who was slowly leaving outside the window, his eyes were full of affection and reluctance, like looking through autumn water, I felt pity.

"Your Highness, everyone has left." Zhe Liu joked, "Your Highness's soul has been taken away!"

"Nonsense!" Ning Yao retorted without saying a word, "If you talk nonsense again, I've rotted your tongue!"

Zhe Liu ground the powdered medicine well, took off Ning Yao's clothes and applied the medicine, and said softly and softly: "Your Highness really cares about Gu Shiwei, and Gu Shiwei really cares about His Highness."

"It's just that I'm not as good as Wei Zhi in his heart, isn't it?" Ning Yao murmured, "Don't think I don't know, Wei Zhi asked Gu Nanyi to come to me just to watch me for Ning Yi, what can I do for them? Don't you know?"

Zhe Liu couldn't help being stunned when he heard the words: "Since His Highness knows, why did he treat Guard Gu..."

Ning Yao held a blue handkerchief in his hand, "Some things are out of my control."

"It's just Your Highness, don't forget what you have to do." Zhe Liu patted Ning Yao's hand.

Zheliu had repeatedly persuaded Ning Yao not to spoil the big thing because of her children's affair, but meeting Gu Nanyi was an accident, something out of the plan, but also because of this accident, all her plans were messed up .

Ning Yao reluctantly said: "Now... I can't even guard the person I like..."

Zheliu tactfully and softly said the truth: "Your Highness is a noble daughter of the Tian family, Gu Nanyi is just a quack, have you forgotten? You promised your empress to become famous, and you said that you would fight back against all those who bully us, so feelings intolerable."

Ning Yao murmured: "I'm Diji, so I can't have someone I like, isn't it forbidden in the plan that I can't like Gu Nanyi..."

Zheliu couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, "Your Highness, Gu Nanyi's status won't help you much, Princess Shaoning has already taken a fancy to Wei Xueshi, what a celebrity Wei Xueshi is, His Highness's husband should also be a respectable person A talented son is the one, and he should never be such a commoner."

In Ning Yao's hand was a sky-blue handkerchief, which she had happily embroidered to give to Gu Nanyi.The ground color of azure water is embroidered with small and folded branches, and every stitch and thread is full of her love and joy for her sweetheart. Now, the veil is still there, and her feelings should not be more than half.

Ning Yao stared blankly at the carefully embroidered veil, only two lines of tears fell down silently.The heart that could not help but really like it turned into ashes.

With such lingering and repeated melancholy and entanglement, Ning Yao's injury recurred again.This time it was Ning Yi who came to visit. After he was concerned, he fell silent for a moment, with a slightly surprised expression on his face.

Ning Yao waved his hand and ordered the maid to go down, and said calmly: "Brother Wang, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Ning Yi frowned and thought for a moment, then said cautiously: "Ning Sheng's assassination in the mansion was also due to your contribution, right?"

"Brother Liu Wang also thinks so?" Ning Yao looked calm, raised his eyebrows slightly and questioned, "I don't have to, I can gamble with my own life, but Gu Nanyi, I can't afford to bet."

He pursed his lips tightly, as if he was thinking about how to express it, "Ning Sheng had the evidence to exonerate him, and took the guard next to him to take the blame. We, the alliance, decided to send someone to assassinate us."

Ning Yao felt tense, thought for a long time, shook her head and said: "Let him escape." She suddenly remembered something, so she opened the window and called Zhe Liu in a low voice: "What's the situation with the concubine mother? Concubine Chang's crime Is it settled yet?"

As soon as Zheliu went away, Ning Yi asked again: "You want to use Qin Jieyu's matter against Ning Sheng and the Chang family?" Ning Yao nodded quietly, and he sighed silently, "It's hard for you mother and daughter."

Ning Yao remained silent, while Ning Yi's eyes were full of compassion and concern: "You don't have to worry too much, one day, they will suffer the consequences."

Ning Yao raised his head suddenly, and smiled shyly: "Don't forget, how brother Ning Qiao died...how can you bear it?"

He stared at her for a moment, and said: "Yes, I can't bear it, but it's too cheap for them to let them die like this."

Ning Yao turned his head, Ning Yi murmured in a low voice: "Sister Wang, rest well, don't worry too much."

Ning Yao was silent for a long time, and Fang told him: "I... regret it, what should I do."

Ning Yi thought for a while, and said, "Because of Gu Nanyi?"

Ning Yao nodded, not making any other comments.After chatting casually for a while, Ning Yi said: "I remember, when you were young, you were not favored in the palace, and you were often neglected and bullied by the princes and princesses. Only the third brother took you to play. I remember that once, you broke into the palace by mistake. After the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, it was Brother Sanwang who protected you and took the punishment for you. You like Gu Nanyi because he protects you several times and makes you feel at ease."

Ning Yao lowered his eyebrows, his lips curled up into a beautiful arc as much as he could, but his expression was still gloomy, "Yes, Nanyi is very protective of me, sometimes I would be in a trance, but later I found out that Nanyi is Nanyi , he is different from brother Ning Qiao."

Ning Yi smiled unconsciously, "You can be happy, that's the best. But you also have to think about big things, you can't have both."

That's right, Diji is one person under ten thousand people, superficially beautiful and rich, but in fact she is like a floating lotus in the palace, lonely and helpless.The prince can still make meritorious deeds to seek power and status, but the emperor can only rely on the grace and favor of her husband's family for life.

Ning Yao was restless and complained again, and soon fell into a drowsy sleep.

At night, a heavy rain dilutes the gloomy clouds and mists under the palace.

Ning Yao's body improved a lot, so he went to the palace to pay his respects.In the early morning when the court was over, Ning Shizheng left a few princes to discuss political affairs. Ning Chuan had just fallen, and it was the time when Ning Sheng rose to power. It is not very favored, isolated and helpless.

As for Ning Yao and Shao Ning, as Ning Shizheng's only two concubines, they became the targets of many princes and officials, fearing that the other party would take the lead.Shao Ning has raised a deep boudoir for a long time, and has been doted on by thousands of people since she was a child. She is a delicate girl who can only rely on her mother and elder brothers.And Ning Yao was left out in the cold and isolated since he was a child, and survived a desperate situation, with a strong ambition in his chest, and he only wanted to climb up.

Ning Yao entered the palace to greet her, and went to Chang Guifei's palace to say hello. No conclusive evidence was found for Chang Guifei's poisoning of Qin Jieyu, so Ning Shizheng let it go, and only promoted Qin Jieyu to Zhaoyuan as a comfort.

In the hall, Concubine Chang Gui sat facing south.She only wore a dark red gold and silver wishful cloud pattern long dress, and the intricately embroidered stand-up collar made her face extremely dignified, and even an old-fashioned color like dark red lost its original meaning.Concubine Chang Gui looked solemn, with a hint of sternness in her tone, and said to the concubine and concubine's family: "Qin Zhaoyuan's birth is not honorable enough, no wonder you are not convinced. But now that she is pregnant with Dragonborn, it means that I like her. Usually Bengong turns a blind eye to your jealousy tricks, just pretending not to know. But now she is pregnant with dragon descendants, if you dare to make trouble with her, if you have trouble with Ningyao Diji, you will be with me and the emperor " Suddenly the voice became heavy: "Do you understand?"

No matter how resentful the people were, they didn't dare to reveal it in front of Concubine Chang Gui, and they had to swallow their breath forcefully, so they had to obediently agree.

Seeing that everyone was like this, Concubine Chang slowed down her expression, and said confidingly: "I can't help it. If you are all obedient and everyone can save your Majesty's worries, why should I bother?" She sighed: "Now that the crown prince is dead, the descendants of the royal family are withered, and the assassination of the emperor's concubine happened again, I just remind you that you must not do stupid things..."

Concubine Chang Gui said so, Ning Yao just sat peacefully in his seat, bowed his head silently, ignoring others' words.

Concubine Chang Gui breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes fell on Ning Yao, and she said softly, "Yaoer, if you feel scared, you can move into the palace, and I will see if those young people dare to break into the palace." !"

Ning Yao pretended to be respectful and said: "Your Majesty, you are serious. The prince's palace is guarded by elites, so there is no need to bother the teachers and mobilize the crowd."

Concubine Chang's expression was softer: "You know the general situation best, the emperor has always liked you, so I don't worry."

Why did Ning Yao not understand the deep meaning of Concubine Chang Gui's words, so she respectfully accepted the order and said: "My empress kindly, I appreciate it."

Before leaving, Concubine Chang Gui said: "The matter about Qin Zhaoyuan is just a misunderstanding, Your Highness, please don't be jealous of me. Your Majesty knows about your injury and has been distressed for a long time. You should go and say hello."

Ning Yao answered "Yes" in a low voice.
