Red Robe

She closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again, her gaze was a little colder.

"Your Highness?" Xian Yu called out cautiously.

With great difficulty, Li Qingning raised her hand and rubbed the center of her brows, "It's late at night, it's time to sleep."

Xian Yu could only say "Oh".

Li Qingning raised her chin slightly, and lifted the tip of her chin towards the inside of the bed, "Go inside."

Xian Yu withdrew her sly look, looked extremely docile, nodded and walked over.

She paused, and asked softly, "Do you want to turn off the lights?"

"Turn off." Li Qingning said.

As soon as Xian Yu raised his hand, the swaying flame on the lampstand in the distance suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if it had been picked off.

The room suddenly darkened, only the moonlight came in from the window lattice.

Xian Yu climbed onto the bed lightly, and carefully pulled up a corner of the thin quilt to cover herself.

"Sleep when you sleep, don't talk." In the darkness, Li Qingning said suddenly.

"Oh." Xian Yu replied, she pursed her pink lips, she was really obedient.

"Close your eyes." Li Qingning spoke very briefly.

"Okay." Xian Yu agreed again.

Having said that, she still kept her eyes open looking at the veil on top.

Xian Yu was lying down well, but her heart was not at all regular, and she had already thought of something that could not be easily said.

It's not that you can't say it easily, it's just that Li Qingning doesn't want to listen.

She pulled the thin quilt again, covered her mouth and nose, only showing her scissored eyes, the more she thought about it, the more blurred her eyes became.

After a while, Xian Yu noticed that the person sitting on the edge of the bed did not move.

Li Qingning was really sitting still, she was in this position before the lights were turned off, and she remained in this position for a long time after the lights were turned off.

Xian Yu's heart tightened, and all the charming thoughts in her heart disappeared, and she was extremely worried that Li Qingning would be too painful to move.

After a while, Li Qingning turned around slightly, and slowly stretched out her hand towards her.

In the darkness, her extraordinary eyesight made it easy for her to see Li Qingning's pampered hand clearly.

The knuckles of the five fingers are not very clear, but the fingers look straight and long, as thin and white as jade, the nails are trimmed very smoothly, and Kodan's nails are very clean.

Xian Yu's breathing was stagnant, but her heart was beating wildly.

Unexpectedly, before Li Qingning's hand reached out to her, she suddenly stopped by the cup of tea.

Li Qingning picked up the cup of tea and put it on a square stool beside her.

After putting away the tea, she swished down and lay down, her breath was well controlled, and it didn't mess up.

Xian Yu: ...

Thinking about Liang Zhu's story, it was still useful, at least after she told the story, she bought herself a little more chance.

Although this chance is really only a little bit, smaller than the finger of the little finger.

Far away in the dungeon.

King Fengxian was sitting on a straw mat leaning against the wet and cold stone wall. He breathed heavily and seemed to be asleep, but he was just closing his eyes and resting his mind.

His retainers and servants were separated and placed in another place, and he was the only one in this cell.

After a long time, the iron chain wrapped around the gate in the distance clanged, and then fell to the ground with a clatter.

The door opened and closed with a creak, and the sound of extremely light footsteps came slowly from a distance.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, but before they stopped, King Fengxian in the cell had already opened his eyes.

King Fengxian pursed his lips, frowned slightly, and looked over following the voice.

This cell was used to detain the recidivists in the court. Although the emperor violated the law and the common people were guilty of the same crime, if the royal people did something wrong, the treatment in the cell was much better than that of ordinary people.

Although the stone wall is still the same stone wall, and the straw mats are also the same straw mats, there is still a short table in front of King Fengxian, on which there are many delicacies.

Although these meals are not as good as those in the palace, they are also not as good as the palace, but they are not a little better than other criminals.

But thinking about it, the evidence is not yet conclusive, and King Fengxian is only a suspect, so there is no conviction yet.

The prison guard walked outside the iron fence, he glanced around, then lowered his voice and said: "My lord."

The iron railings are full of traces, not only rusty red to black, but also seems to be stained with a lot of dried blood.

But King Fengxian sat on the straw mat, but his bearing remained undiminished, and he even took it calmly.

Although his temples were a little white, his face was not middle-aged, maybe it was because of his cultivation.

Seeing that the prison guard outside the iron fence lowered his voice and called out, he nodded slightly in a calm and unhurried manner, his eyes were neither frightened nor angry, and he raised his eyes to meet the person outside the iron fence.

The prison guard frowned and said: "Your Majesty, the people sent by His Majesty to Fengxian City are already on their way."

King Fengxian slightly nodded, "How is it in the palace?"

The prison guard said in a low voice: "Now that His Majesty has sent more people to guard the palace gate, it is extremely difficult for people in the palace to come out. Even if it is to send a message, you have to rack your brains and think of a way."

"What's the second prince doing?" King Feng Xian said in a deep voice.

The jailer said: "When the prince was imprisoned, Mr. Xiao's case was also overturned. It was said that the case was wrongly judged at that time, but the forged account book was burned by the third prince."

"This king has heard about this matter for a long time." King Fengxian said.

The prison guard thought for a while and said: "The third prince refused to plead guilty, and now he is also locked up."

"Other than that." Fengxian Wang frowned and asked.

The prison guard frowned, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he said hastily: "The people in the palace sent a letter saying that the forged account books were made of silver silk paper. Later, the palace conducted a thorough investigation and found that Concubine Qing At that time, most of the silver silk papers that were rewarded were lost, but the Qing imperial concubine refused to admit it, and she was also imprisoned in the sky prison."

"Concubine Qing?" King Fengxian said in a deep voice.

"The imperial concubine Qing is the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs at that time." The guard said in a low voice.

Hearing this, King Feng Xian laughed immediately, his smile was very cold, his brows were still furrowed.

The prison guard was stunned for a moment, but he didn't know what King Fengxian was laughing at.

King Feng Xian let out a sneer, "Household Department, that is in charge of Dongzhou's territory, salary, food and payment, in addition to household registration and land, all financial matters within the court are controlled by him."

The prison guard kept his mouth shut, he was just a servant, and he didn't know anything about court affairs.

"Shangshu of the Household Department, it is indeed very easy to blame Lord Xiao." King Fengxian paused for a moment, and then said: "But what is the Shangshu of the Household Department greedy for?"

King Feng Xian shook his head, "It's really a good plan, and it also involves Concubine Qing. However, Concubine Qing's biological father is still the Minister of the Household Department. This line of stitching can be called meticulous."

The prison guard still didn't speak, just stood outside and listened slightly bent over.

King Feng Xian leaned against the wet and cold wall and slowly raised his chin, "You should pay attention to Concubine Qing for this king. After a while, Concubine Qing will plead guilty."

"Could it be that Concubine Qing really framed Lord Xiao?" the prison guard couldn't help asking.

King Fengxian shook his head: "No, Concubine Qing never really framed Lord Xiao, but her father will inevitably be involved in this matter."

The prison guard was confused, and nodded pretending to understand.

"Shangshu is not so easy to be. Now the national treasury is almost empty, and Shangshu is also very difficult to move forward. It is like facing an abyss. If something goes wrong for a while, and it is used by someone with a heart, it will be over." King Feng Xian slowly road.

The prison guard let out an "oh", as if he understood it.

After a while, King Fengxian asked again: "How is the eldest princess?"

The prison guard thought for a long time before saying: "I don't know very well, but it seems that His Majesty has given His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess something, which seems to be very rare and precious."

King Feng Xian frowned again, "You're still rewarded?"

The prison guard didn't respond, he also heard the rumors.

"Is the eldest princess going to leave the palace in the near future?" King Fengxian asked again.

"I don't know, I don't know." The guard bowed his head and said.

"Is there any sign of the former king's counselor in red?" Feng Xianwang's face was gloomy.

The prison guard shook his head: "The people in the palace said they have never seen it before."

King Fengxian pursed his lips, "Is there anything unusual in the Ceasefire Palace?"

The prison guard was thinking hard, with sweat dripping from his forehead, his heart was beating wildly, he suddenly smashed his palms, and said: "When I was eating tea in a tea shop, I heard from a passer-by that the son of Xiandao in the Ceasefire Palace The daughter seems to have gone back, but the third son is stupid, and another sixth girl is missing."

King Fengxian felt a headache when he heard that, "Just say the owner of the Ceasefire Palace, don't talk nonsense."

The prison guard hurriedly said: "I heard that the owner of the Cease Fire Palace was furious and swept away several small sects in a fit of anger, and snatched away all the panacea from other families, but he never found the lost daughter."

King Fengxian waved his hand and said, "It's all nonsense."

The prison guard had no choice but to keep silent.

After a long while, King Fengxian said: "Forget it, let's keep an eye on Concubine Qing first." King Fengxian was silent for a while, and then said: "Also, if the pedestrians arrive in Fengxian City, they should tell the king as soon as possible. "

"Yes." The jailer said quickly.

King Feng Xian nodded slightly, "When I go out, you will be indispensable to wealth and glory."

The prison guard was almost in tears of gratitude, he hurriedly bent over and said: "Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord."

In the Yangning Palace, the eldest princess mentioned and the sixth girl of the Ceasefire Palace were lying on the same bed, and the tea that was originally placed in the middle of the bed had already been taken away.

Early the next morning, Li Qingning woke up before dawn.

This sleep was not very peaceful, although she fell asleep, she seemed to be in a coma, the past life and present life in the dream were intertwined, making it difficult for her to tell whether she was in the past life or the present life after waking up.

She couldn't move, half of her body seemed to be frozen.

From time to time, some soft and warm breath would fall from my ears, and without thinking too much, it was the person beside me who was sleeping close.

She pursed her lips and remained silent, staring at the veil on the top.

After a while, the person beside him moved, and the person said in surprise, "Why is the tea missing?"

Li Qingning remained silent.

Xian Yu just woke up, the voice was thin and weak, like a cat, she pretended not to know that Li Qingning had woken up, and whispered: "Did your Highness thirst last night?"

After hearing this, Li Qingning couldn't help pursing her lips. She didn't drink the tea, but she was very thirsty.

Chapter 67

67

The sky was twilight, and the dim light shone into the room through the paper pasted on the window lattice.

The two people were very close to each other on the bed in the room, one was lying neatly, and the other was lying sideways.

Li Qingning wondered in her heart, should she move?

Forget it, don't move.

Xian Yu lifted his chin, glanced left and right, and said meaningfully: "Why did the tea get on the stool?"

Only then did Li Qingning move her eyes, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was still in the same position and position as before going to bed last night.

She did not exceed the courtesy, and the extremely frivolous person next to her leaned over.

Why is this person so frivolous? It was a very good thing to put a bowl of water, but he wanted to say something unlucky, it is really...

hurt her.

"Not thirsty." Li Qingning said flatly.

Xian Yu said again: "Then why did His Highness take away the tea?"

Li Qingning was still lying still, her lips parted and closed: "I don't know how you slept properly. If you spilled the tea, how would you sleep?"

"I don't sleep well, Your Highness doesn't know." Xian Yu's eyes curved.

Li Qingning took a breath slowly, her chest heaved for a while, she really knew it.

Although there are only a handful of times in this life, Xian Yu slept with her twice when she was still a child, but in her previous sleep, the person who was already a woman had lingered with her many times .

Many, very many, too numerous to count.

Thinking about it this way, she was still not prudent enough in her previous life. Fortunately, she still had a sliver of reason before, and covered her eyes with red satin, otherwise it would be irreversible.

Xian Yu looked at her sideways, with straight eyes, not looking at people, but fishing.

The fish did not move, only looking at the bait on the hook at the bottom of the water.

Li Qingning sighed, "You don't have to talk like that."

"But I'm not talking, it's because His Highness thinks too much, and His Highness thinks I'm talking." Xian Yu said unhurriedly, with a smile on his lips.

Li Qingning really doesn't seem to be wasting words, anyway, this person is used to turning black and white, and if he continues to talk, he will definitely mess up again.

"What is Your Highness going to do today?" Seeing her pursing her lips, Xian Yu simply changed the subject.

Only then did Li Qingning say, "I'm not going anywhere."

"I'm not going anywhere, maybe I want to stay on the couch." Xian Yu couldn't help it, and joked again, "If Fangxin sees it, she will definitely think about it again."

Li Qingning really had a headache, "You can't be more straight-minded."

"That's fine." Xian Yu really agreed.

Li Qingning closed her eyes, and exhaled slowly, as if sighing, "I shouldn't go anywhere. At this juncture, although Li Wuyin is trying to get Concubine Qing to confess her guilt, she may not ignore me."

She moved her hand lying flat by her side slightly, and slowly bent her slender fingers, tapped twice on the embroidered mattress, and said: "Besides, Li Zaiyu is now suspicious, and at this time the additional People guarding the palace walls are not just to prevent lawless people from sneaking in, but also to worry about what people in the palace will go out to do."

"But didn't he give you Huanling Decoction and Returning Marrow Lotion, isn't that enough?" Xian Yu frowned, all obedience disappeared, and a trace of sternness appeared again.

Li Qingning was silent for a while, and then slowly said: "So what if I was given the Huanling Decoction and the Replenishing Lotion, as long as those thousand shadows follow me for a moment, he will not be at peace for a moment. In fact, only a few people disguised themselves as these thousand shadows. Hiding in the palace, the rest of the people are outside the palace, but even so, he dare not sleep soundly."

"Sitting in that position, he has to be vigilant to the people around him all the time. Previously, the two sects were still loyal, so he delegated power arbitrarily. Now he has discovered some clues, but the status quo is not so easy to change." Li Qingning said again.

Xian Yu snorted coldly, a hint of disgust appeared on his face.

Her hatred for the royal people other than Li Qingning has never been concealed, not only because of the suffering and torture from these people in her previous life, but also because these people forced Li Qingning to death.

It was their malicious coercion that made Li Qingning come to that point in her previous life.

They really deserve to die, and they don't have to die too decently.

She had drained all the blood in her previous life, and she could clearly feel her hands and feet getting colder.The fear and powerlessness tortured her so much that she just wanted to strangle her neck, but she couldn't, her hands and feet were all shackled.

"He dare not take it lightly." Li Qingning said suddenly.

Xian Yu was silent.

"Which of the shadows in my hand is no more loyal than his soldiers, even if it wasn't him, he would be very afraid of it if someone else succeeded him." Li Qingning said slowly.

Indeed, even if someone else was sitting there, they were suddenly afraid of Li Qingning's sudden attack.

The second prince wanted to seize power, so he was naturally afraid of Li Qingning, and King Fengxian was also afraid of Li Qingning if he wanted to rebel.

In this way, those people deserve to die even more, Xian Yu thought.

Only apart from them can we rest easy.

"What are you thinking?" Li Qingning asked suddenly.

The ferocity on Xian Yu's face faded, and he changed his face faster than turning the pages of a book. His tense shoulders and neck suddenly relaxed, and he pursed his lips before saying, "I'm thinking about what I'm going to do today."

Hearing this, Li Qingning frowned, "It's in Yangning Palace, don't try to provoke trouble."

"Okay, I won't go." Xian Yu Haosheng agreed.

Li Qingning's expression softened a little.

Xian Yu turned over and fell on the bed. She huddled in the thin quilt, and when she stood up a little, the thin quilt immediately arched up.

She stared at Li Qingning with crooked eyes for a long time, then suddenly leaned down, but stopped suddenly.

Only a foot away, the breath is entangled like silk.

Xian Yu said again slowly: "Thinking about it this way, I really look like a slave that His Highness is hiding in the palace."

Li Qingning almost held her breath, and suddenly felt that the air around her seemed to be getting hotter.

She froze and said: "You are you, what are you talking about... Jiao Nu."

It is clearly the end of autumn, why is it so hot.

The corners of Xian Yu's lips curled up, and he suddenly said, "My throat is a little dry, I want to drink tea."

Li Qingning pretended to be calm, "Then drink."

After listening, Xian Yu passed Li Qingning, with half of her body lying on top of her, and one leg had already passed.

Li Qingning could bear it a little before, but now this tossing, her breath suddenly became chaotic.

She circulated the spiritual energy secretly, trying to calm her mind and mind, but she didn't expect that the spiritual energy passed through, like sparks spreading. At first, it was just a little hot around her ears, and then her whole body seemed to be burning.

There was a knock on the door suddenly, yes, it was the heart again.

Not long after, Xian Yu, who was cunning by nature, stayed in Yangning Palace, but Li Qingning was called away.

Li Zaiyu looked for her, and called her over just after dawn.

Li Qingning's expression was heavy, and before she left, she told Fangxin that the person in her room would give whatever she wanted, but she couldn't let that person walk out of the gate of Yangning Palace.

Her vermilion lips were tightly pursed, her face as bright as the autumn moon was frighteningly cold, as if something good had been interrupted.

The eunuch holding the dust whisk was stunned for a moment when he saw her face, and felt the chill really go from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, but in the blink of an eye, he saw Li Qingning's expression as usual again.

He secretly looked at it a few more times, and saw that Li Qingning's expression was indeed the same as usual, that appearance was still cold and indifferent, but it was still gentle, as beautiful as a bright moon that could only be seen from a distance.

The eunuch thought to himself, he must be wrong, otherwise how could he see His Royal Highness looking at people so gloomyly.

Before arriving at Yuanzheng Hall, I went to the edge of Chunhua Pool.

The pond was dug a long time ago, and many fish were raised in it. After a period of time, the fish in the pond looked very plump, but after all, they were the emperor's fish, and no one had the courage to fish them.

Li Zaiyu was sitting in the gazebo, behind him stood two maids shaking fans, and beside him was a favorite concubine who was not there.

When Li Qingning arrived, Li Zaiyu waved his hand and told the maid to leave.

She lowered her body slightly to salute, her brows and eyes lowered, as if she was very controllable.

But although Li Qingning's expression softened, her heart felt a little colder.

Sure enough, Li Zaiyu couldn't sleep well, and he wouldn't let her sleep well easily.

She and Li Zaiyu were the only ones left in the gazebo.

The pavilion is ventilated on all sides, and the gauze as thin as a cicada's wings is blown by the cool wind, as if the scenery outside the pavilion is hazy, as if separated by fog.

Li Qingning didn't speak, and because Li Zaiyu hadn't let her sit down, she just stood beside her.

Li Zaiyu seemed to be doing it on purpose, lying on the wooden chair through the cushion, and opened his closed eyes after a long time.

With a slight lift of his hand, he pointed to an empty stone bench beside him, signaling Li Qingning to sit down.

Li Qingning sat down, but did not open the chatterbox.

Li Zaiyu's posture was very relaxed, and although his face was still grim, it seemed to be very leisurely.

His pale lips moved slowly, and he said: "I suddenly remembered that it has been a long time since I have had heart-to-heart contact with my imperial sister."

"Brother Huang has so many things to do every day, he has no time to chat." Li Qingning said.

"That's right. Although the frontier has been relatively stable in the past two years, natural disasters have continued in Dongzhou, and there have been complaints from many places. Although I have sent people to rescue the disaster, there is still no improvement." Li Zaiyu talked about these disasters, but still Very relaxed.

When others didn't notice, Li Qingning frowned slightly.

"I naturally understand that water can carry a boat and capsize it. Subjects are water, but they are also fish." Li Zaiyu said forcefully.

Li Qingning turned her eyes slightly, and saw that the emperor lying on the cushion closed his eyes again, as if he was drowsy.

Li Zaiyu didn't sleep, but said: "The fish in the pond are waiting for the people on the boat to eat."

"Brother Huang, should I scatter or not?" Li Qingning thought for a while and said.

Li Zaiyu said: "Whether to scatter is decided by the people on board, and how much to scatter is also decided by the people on board."

He paused, pointed to the Chunhua Pond not far away, and said, "Look, I dug this Chunhua Pond, and I also raised the fish in the pond. Every grain of the food they eat is delicious. It's mine."

Li Qingning didn't respond, but saw the person lying on the cushion slowly turn his head and cast a deep look at her.

"Do you know what this means?" Li Zaiyu asked.

Li Qingning shook her head slightly, "Sister Chen is dull."

Li Zaiyu smiled, "You know it clearly, which means that if I want them to live, they will live, and if I want them to die, they will not be able to live."

"Of course, the Chunhua Pond belongs to the Emperor, and the fish in the pool naturally belong to the Emperor." Li Qingning said lightly.

Li Zaiyu withdrew his eyes and turned his head again, "Chunhua Pond belongs to me, and I can fill it up as soon as I want, not to mention the fish in the pond."

Li Qingning understood that every inch of land in Dongzhou is well-known, and he can do whatever he wants with the land, and doesn't care much about the people living on the land.

And this palace is also his, and the people in the palace can't even have the slightest thought of making waves.

"That's natural." Li Qingning said flatteringly.

Li Zaiyu smiled, "The people on the boat sit high and can see far away. What the fish in the pond are doing, the people on the boat can see clearly."

He paused, then turned to say: "I can see that the fish in the Chunhua Pond are hungry again."

Li Qingning lowered her eyes and said calmly, "I'm really hungry."

"Come here." Li Zaiyu suddenly raised his voice.

A eunuch came in a hurry, and when he approached, he heard Li Zaiyu say: "Go and grab two and send them to the Shang Shisi. I seem to be a little hungry, so I will eat fish today."

The eunuch responded quickly and called someone to fish.

In the gazebo, Li Zaiyu sighed, rubbed his eyebrows and said: "I'm so sleepy, I suddenly forgot what I wanted to say at first, and then I will talk about natural disasters."

"Sister Chen, listen." Li Qingning said.

"The people are suffering, and I feel very sad, but I didn't expect that no one in the civil and military courts would come up with a plan to resist the earthquake and rescue the victims." Li Zaiyu sighed.

The place where the earthquake happened is far away at the junction of the south. It is heard that since the beginning of autumn, the earthquake has occurred more than ten times, and many people have died. The main road was blocked, and it was very difficult to enter the disaster area, and it was impossible to get out.

"I've thought about it for a long time, and I feel that we need to send another person to rescue the disaster." Li Zaiyu said.

Li Qingning pursed her lips, her heart skipped a beat.

After a while, Li Zaiyu said slowly: "I don't know if there is a suitable candidate in my mind."

The autumn wind was blowing slowly, and the tulle was blown up with a sound.

The fish in the pond lightly touched the surface of the water, and then scattered again.

Li Qingning's downcast eyes slowly lifted up, her red lips moved slightly, and a name came out between her lips and teeth.

Outside the pavilion in the Chunhua Pond, several palace officials stood with lowered eyebrows, not daring to figure out what the people in the pavilion were talking about.

Although they didn't dare to listen, and didn't dare to look up, they knew how long the eldest princess had been sitting in the gazebo after her arrival.

Almost two hours.

Li Qingning sat for two hours before leaving, her expression changed slightly after walking a distance, and her lips that were tightly pursed into a line were slightly loosened.

The arc of her lips raised seemed to be absent, making it difficult to see whether she was expressionless or smiling.

Fang Xin followed beside her, looked up at the person sitting on the chariot, and whispered, "Is your Highness alright?"

"Okay." Li Qingning said calmly.

When she was almost at Yangning Palace, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, even the paralyzed half of her body seemed not so uncomfortable.

When she saw the door of Yangning Palace, she asked: "What did she do this morning, did she stay well?"

Fang hesitated to speak, she lowered her eyes and said, "Stay well, His Highness will know when he returns."

After returning to Yangning Palace, Li Qingning couldn't see anyone from left to right, so she frowned and asked, "Is this just staying there?"

Only then did Fang Xin falter and say: "The girl is here, in the study."

Li Qingning turned around and went to the study, opened the door and saw the man standing and sitting in front of the desk, which was full of open paper, calligraphy and painting.

The man who couldn't even dress properly turned his head slowly, and said meaningfully: "Your Highness still likes to copy books."

Li Qingning: ...

Xian Yu opened another roll of rice paper and said, "Your Highness, why did you make so many mistakes? Could it be that your mind was disturbed while copying?"

Li Qingning really didn't know how to explain it.

Chapter 68

68

But there is no explanation for this. If you copy it wrong, you copy it wrong.

What's more, it was clearly written on the paper, how many mistakes she copied and what she copied wrong, it was clear at a glance.

Li Qingning closed her eyes, as if she was deluding herself and others. She couldn't see Xian Yu flipping through the book to read the long scroll, so she pretended that Xian Yu wasn't reading it.

But the person who was flipping through the pages didn't want to give her a chance to deceive herself. The sound of flipping the pages sounded like they were deliberately turned for her.

The sound was like the autumn wind blowing the leaves. There was a hula from a distance, and the leaves rustled one after another.

Every sound was blown to the bottom of her heart, knocking down the high wall that was erected later in her heart, leaving only a puddle of mud and soft flesh.

Li Qingning didn't stop Xian Yu from reading it, after all, she allowed this man to move around in Yangning Palace, and she had nothing to hide from Xian Yu, let alone anything she could hide from her.

From the previous life to the present life, the two of them have walked together so many ways, and now everything has been opened up again, there is nothing that can be hidden from each other.

Since she promised, she shouldn't hide it.

Xian Yu read and read, and even read what Li Qingning had copied wrongly. She didn't know much about those facsimiles and scriptures, so she stuttered when reading what Li Qingning copied.

She read very slowly, slowly squeezing each word out from between her lips and teeth.

The slow tone was clearly tormenting, and Li Qingning heard every word, so that she could better understand where she copied it wrong.

Xian Yu's voice was soft, and she read it very cheerfully, and the corners of her lips slightly raised as she read it, she said: "I don't have much memory of this passage, I don't seem to have read it, I don't know if Your Highness copied it wrong too. .”

Li Qingning's fingers hanging by her side moved slightly, as if trembling.

"If not, I'll read it to His Highness, and His Highness will tell me if I copied it wrong." Xian Yu said with a chuckle.

Li Qingning took a deep breath, and said calmly, "Read it."

So Xian Yu read it according to what Li Qingning had copied, and asked after finishing reading, "I didn't read it very well, did your Highness hear you clearly?"

"Understood." Li Qingning said expressionlessly.

"Did your Highness copy it wrong?" Xian Yu turned to look at her, her dark eyes were very bright, and she was expecting the other party to make a mistake.

Li Qingning raised her chin slightly, obviously looking unattainable, as expensive as a snow lotus that cannot be picked on a dangerous cliff, but she was not very cold and arrogant, and said, "Wrong."

She choked for a moment, squeezed out the words from her dry throat, and her throat trembled slightly as the words came out.

A little bit of self-blame is mixed with shame, and a little uncomfortable is also mixed with self-blame.

It was uncomfortable, being exposed face to face, and my ears became hot.

Xian Yu said meaningfully: "But I remember that His Highness never missed a copy of the book before, and he never copied a word wrong."

Li Qingning is not as good as her, remembering so many things from her previous life, but she vaguely feels that she should have followed the rules in her previous life, but the rules were broken by some people later.

Her vermilion lips opened and closed, she only grinned a little bit, she saw a few white teeth faintly, but she didn't even make a sound.

Li Qingning still didn't know what to say, it was quite embarrassing.

"Your Highness used to copy books, and asked me to copy them together. I don't bother to copy these things, so His Highness had to copy mine together, so as to atone for my sin." Xian Yu narrowed her eyes slightly, as if recalling the past life thing.

"Atonement, what sin is atonement for?" Li Qingning frowned, wondering how a well-behaved person like her could use atonement.

Xian Yu sighed hypocritically, and said slowly: "It's my fault, I shouldn't have offended His Highness in the mourning hall, and made His Highness fall in love for a while."

Li Qingning: ...

"Ridiculous!" she blurted out.

Xian Yu blinked, "So that time, His Highness was atoning for my sin."

Li Qingning no longer dared to think about how absurd her previous life was. She was such a well-behaved person, she should be upright in everything she did, and she never imagined that she would do such absurd things.

Never repeat the same mistakes in this life.

"Redemption..." Li Qingning's voice paused, feeling very tired all over, and said again: "It's fine if you redeem it."

Xian Yu smiled, "Your Highness, don't you want to ask whose mourning hall it is?"

It was only then that Li Qingning came back to her senses, and realized that she was momentarily dizzy and didn't pay attention to Xian Yu's words.

She frowned slightly, really couldn't figure it out.

She really didn't know much about the past life, but since Xian Yu was the owner of the Ceasefire Palace in the previous life, her status was not much lower than the current two major suzerains. Thinking about it this way, the person who did the white things was probably a big shot.

"Who?" Li Qingning didn't want to guess anymore. According to the current situation, anyone might lose their life.

"Third prince." Xian Yu said slowly.

Li Qingning frowned, "How could he die?"

Xian Yu shook his head, "The third prince was also imprisoned in the previous life, but someone pleaded for him, and then he came out of the dark room. But I don't know who is the one who begged His Majesty behind the scenes, but the third prince's life was not good after he came out. How good, soon died of illness."

"What's wrong?" Li Qingning frowned.

"Smallpox." Xian Yu said.

Li Qingning pursed her lips, "Smallpox developed very quickly, when did he get smallpox in his previous life?"

Xian Yu thought for a while, "I didn't pay much attention to this person in my previous life, I don't know when I got it, but if I think about it carefully, it should be soon now."

Li Qingning knew that there was nothing to ask, so she had to give up, she thought for a while and said: "There are thousands of people in the palace, and some palace people die of illness every once in a while, but I haven't heard of anyone who has had smallpox yet. Yes, if Li Qianjun has smallpox, I don't know who passed it on to him."

Xian Yu nodded slightly, "But it's also possible that some people just don't want him to live."

"Li Wuyin." Li Qingning said calmly, apart from this person, she couldn't think of anyone else who would put this person to death.

After standing for a long time, she moved, ignored the stack of open books on the table, and sat down.

Xian Yu lowered her eyes, only to see that Li Qingning's right arm hanging by her side did not move, she frowned slightly, "How is your Highness's hand now?"

"It's the same as yesterday." Li Qing's eyes were calm.

Xian Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.

Li Qingning paused for a moment, and had no choice but to change her words: "It's worse than yesterday."

Xian Yu bit her lower lip, and she tore off a corner of the blank thin paper with a rustle. The paper was unused, and it looked like ordinary paper, so it would be no pity to tear it off.

With two fingers together, she swipe across the paper, a line of words suddenly appeared on the rough paper, a few small words disappeared as soon as they appeared.

Afterwards, it was like carrying away the leaves as before, and the paper also turned into ashes in her hands.

Seeing that Li Qingning's injuries were getting worse, her heart was hanging tightly, and she almost couldn't pretend to be relaxed. After thinking about it, it would be better to let Bai Tu hurry up.

"Who is that Bai Tu...?" Li Qingning frowned.

Xian Yu didn't know how to say this, and after thinking for a long time, he said simply: "I picked it up in the previous life, it's not considered picking up, it was exchanged with a peasant woman for money, at first I thought this rabbit was a spirit beast, and it dripped blood I wanted him to recognize the master, but the rabbit rolled his eyes a few times."

The more she spoke, the more she gritted her teeth, "The rabbit wanted to run away, but I caught it several times and provided it with delicious food, so it didn't go away."

"What happened next?" Li Qingning asked.

Xian Yu said: "Later, when the rabbit saw that I still wanted to bleed to recognize my spiritual pet, it suddenly spit out human words, which scared me."

"He claims to be a monk who managed to recover his life after crossing the catastrophe. He must have some kind of great ability, because he knows too much, then..." Xian Yu paused, and carefully studied Li Qingning's expression.

Seeing that Li Qingning's expression was normal, she said, "He also taught me the remaining scrolls of Danyin."

Li Qingning's breath was stagnant, she really didn't want to hear about the remnants of Danyin, after all, if this exercise is practiced completely, it can change people's temperament and make people unrecognizable.

Xian Yu was silent for a long time, she saw Li Qingning pursed her lips and said nothing, as if sullen.

She thought about it for a long time, and unconsciously scratched her palm with her nails. When she felt a little pain, she said simply: "This time you and I can come back to life again. He borrowed the power of the star and spent a lot of money. It’s only in exchange for cultivation.”
