Before March [-]rd, the Imperial Palace was already busy. Since the emperor left that day, he didn't know if it was because he was really busy, or because Jiang Jieyu was pestering him, or because he had forgotten about this small courtyard and never came again.Tang Xiaoshi also came to a clean end.

King Xi came here once, explained some things, and told her that he would go to the grand ceremony with the emperor on March [-]rd, and that he could not take her out of the palace himself, and would arrange someone trustworthy.

The words inadvertently revealed that this grand ceremony was no small matter, and that something big might happen.She wanted to ask more questions, but King Xi changed the subject.She thought that royal affairs were never trivial, and she didn't take them to heart.

On March [-]rd, she appeared to be sitting in the room reading idle books as if nothing had happened, but her heart was restless for a moment.A page of the book stopped for a long while without flipping, and his eyes kept looking outside.

King Xi said that he had arranged for someone to take her away today, but he did not tell her who it was or what the specific content of the arrangement was.

She was restless, watching the hourglass inside the room pass by little by little, the shadow of the sun outside slowly turned from the west side to the north side and then gradually turned to the east, her heart became more nervous, and she could no longer read the book.

It was almost evening, the day was coming to an end, and there was no movement at all.Don't make a mistake.

The dog emperor is not a wise king but not a fool. He was able to catch them last time, but this time it is really hard to say.

The more I think about it, the more disturbed I become, and my emotions become chaotic.

Fenfen noticed something strange, and asked: "What's wrong, my lady? Is there something wrong?"

She smiled: "It's nothing." He hesitated, "I'm a little hungry, go and bring some snacks."

"My lady didn't eat anything for lunch, how could she not be hungry?" He ordered the servant girl outside the door to bring in tea.

She didn't care what she had for lunch.

She didn't know why this time, but she was very nervous.The last time I escaped at night, although I was nervous, I was more excited, but this time, apart from nervousness, it was all fear and anxiety.Always feel that something unknown will happen.

When the refreshment was brought in, she was not in the mood to eat it, and gnawed on the pastry casually, looking out of the window from time to time.

The shadow of the sun lengthened little by little, and the afterglow in the sky slowly receded, and she had a bad omen in her mind.

Something really went wrong?

It shouldn't be, otherwise it would be impossible for her to have no movement at all.

She was so anxious that her head was confused, and she sighed secretly, looking at the candle lamp beside her, there seemed to be a fire in her heart, burning unscrupulously, making her anxious.

"Lady." Xiao Wu walked into the inner room.

"Huh?" The servants don't come into the inner room to serve, she glanced outside, but she didn't see Fenfen and other maids.

When Xiao Wu stepped forward, she saw a package in his hand.

"The lady changed her clothes and went with the slave!"

She was stunned, looking at the package on the small table, her face full of doubts, isn't Xiao Wu someone arranged by the dog emperor?

What does this mean?He is actually King Xi's man?Or did the dog emperor come to set him off on purpose?

"Mistress hurry up and change clothes, otherwise, when the curfew arrives, I will not be able to send my wife out."

"you?"

"Yes."

King Xi, is this a joke?He himself is a half-grown child, and such a big matter is entrusted to a half-grown child.

Is it child's play to escape from the palace?

"Everyone inside and outside the yard has already been fascinated, my lady, please hurry up." After urging Xiao Wu, he retreated out.

She dubiously walked to the small table, opened the package, and inside was a bodyguard, from head to toe.She hesitated and put on.

Now there is no better choice, originally going out of the palace is a desperate thing, and death is at worst.Thinking this way, on the contrary, I feel relieved and feel relaxed.

After changing clothes, shoes and socks, I went out, and saw Fenfen and two maidservants lying unconscious by the small table, and two servants collapsed on the porch outside the door.The servant outside the courtyard has also passed out.

Xiao Wu handed her a lantern, took out a key from his sleeve, stretched out his hand, opened the courtyard door, turned around and locked the door quietly after going out, took back the lantern and told her to hurry up.

"Where did you get the key?"

"His Highness secretly gave it."

"Do you know what you want to do?" She was still suspicious: Xiao Wu is the arrangement that King Xi said?This is too cheating, right?

"Little slave knows, the wife can just follow Xiaonu."

"My good brother, if you are found out, your life will be gone. Are you not afraid? You are only a teenager, and you still have a lot of good times in your life!"

Xiao Wu didn't answer, just lowered his head slightly, and walked a few steps faster with the lantern in hand.

She didn't ask any more questions, and walked through the flower and tree forest to the path by the lake, following the path that King Xi took her away to the palace gate last time.Walking between the deep and high walls, you can't help but look up at the sky, which is full of stars.

Just when a team of guards came over, she immediately lowered her head and walked alongside Xiao Wu.The guard glanced at them and walked over.

There were dozens of steps away from the palace gate, and she couldn't help but ask again: "How do we get out later?" They are not King Xi, just brush their faces.

Xiao Wu glanced at her and said, "Xiao Nu won His Majesty's badge."

"Your Majesty?" She suddenly stopped.

The dog emperor trap?What does he want to do?Her mind suddenly became confused, and she couldn't implicate King Xi, so she turned around and walked back.

Seeing this, Xiao Wu was stunned, and immediately chased after him, calling in a low voice: "Lady, you can't go back, it's dangerous."

Tang Xiaoshi stopped suddenly, she really couldn't go back, now she has reached the gate of the palace, how could she go back?Stretching out the head with a knife, retracting the head is also a knife, what are you afraid of?King Xi didn't show up from the beginning to the end, if this could cause trouble, then she would have already been troubled if she went out of the palace.

Turning around and heading towards the palace gate, a team of patrols came straight over to stop them. It was obvious that their abnormality had caught the attention of the patrols just now.

Xiao Wu showed his waist card and said: "Xiao Nu is going out of the palace to do business by order."

The patrolman glanced at the badge, looked at the two of them again, and was puzzled, why did His Majesty send two and a half servants, but the badge was not fake.Handed him the waist card and ordered: "No fighting in the palace, hurry up and do business."

"Yes." Xiao Wu took the badge and immediately went towards the palace gate.

Tang Xiaoshi followed immediately, and there was another interrogation at the gate of the palace, and when she saw the waist card, she let out of the palace without asking any more questions.

After walking a short distance from the palace gate, she turned into a street, avoiding the guards in front of the palace gate and in the neighborhood, she pushed Xiao Wu against the wall of the square, and reached out to take the waist card from him.

"What did His Majesty order you to bring me out?"

Xiao Wu slammed into the wall of the square and coughed twice, hurriedly said: "Lady, this servant is under the order of His Royal Highness King Xi, and the waist card is given to him by His Royal Highness."

"The badge belongs to His Majesty, where did you get King Xi? Tell the truth, otherwise I...I'll strip you naked and hang you on a tree." He threatened a tree by the wall of the Chaofang.

Xiao Wu was so startled that his body trembled, and his voice begged in a weeping voice: "I dare not lie, how can there be slaves who don't know this waist card, maybe it was a reward from His Majesty."

"Are you not telling the truth?" She stretched out her hand to untie the other's belt to scare him. Xiao Wu was really frightened, and shiveringly knelt down along the wall of the square, begging in a low voice, "Xiao Nu is telling the truth, my lady Go around and spare the little slave."

Seeing that Xiao Wu didn't seem to be lying, she continued to ask: "Did King Xi tell you how the palace will arrange it?"

Xiao Wu replied tremblingly: "King Xi ordered Xiaonu to take the lady to Chongrenfang to find Mr. Zhen, but he didn't say anything else."

She turned around and glanced in the direction of Chongrenfang, which is a few blocks away from Chongrenfang, and the curfew will soon come, so there is no delay.

"Let's go!" He pulled Xiao Wu up from the ground.

Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment, not daring to hesitate.

Arriving at Chongren Square, it was just before the locks were locked. After entering the workshop, according to the address given before, the two slandered and came to a small courtyard deep in an alley, where the lights were still on.

As soon as he knocked on the door, the courtyard door opened from the inside, and a slender figure stood between the two doors against the backlight, and the expression of his facial features could not be seen clearly.

"Your Excellency is Mr. Zhen?" Xiao Wu Shili asked.

The figure froze for a while before nodding and answering: "Yes." The voice was thick and honest.

This person seemed to be unresponsive, and he stopped for two beats before turning sideways, "Miss, Xiao Lang, please come in."

After entering the door, Tang Xiaoshi turned and looked at Mr. Zhen, just at that moment, the faint candlelight in the hall hit him on the face, although he couldn't see clearly, it was vaguely recognizable as a young man.

Mr. Zhen also paused, looked at her blankly, and nodded slightly: "Lady, go to the hall to rest first."

She looked back into the hall and walked over.

Mr. Zhen walked into the hall, knelt down at the square table and poured her a cup of tea, "It's late at night and the dew is heavy, the lady must be suffering from the cold when she comes here, drink a cup of warm tea to get rid of the cold."

She took the tea bowl, the tea was hot, and the brown tea smelled like it had just been brewed.

She pursed her lips and looked up at Mr. Zhen beside her. She had a delicate appearance and gentle eyebrows. Although she was not stunning, she was very attractive, and the more she looked at it, the more comfortable she became.

He poured another cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Wu, then turned to look at her.Under the candlelight, a pair of eyes reflected the firelight, bright and warm.

Tang Xiaoshi suddenly felt that nerve jumping again, and her vision gradually blurred.

Are you going to wear it again?

She rubbed the area above her temples, her head hurting more and more.

"Where is the lady uncomfortable?"

"No." She moved her lips, her ears were buzzing, and she didn't know if she said the words, her headache was splitting, and her eyes were dark.

Drowsy, she felt someone grabbing her hand and calling her name.It was like lying on a bed in the chaos, unable to see anything, but could smell the fragrance of orchid grass.

Suddenly someone kissed her lips...

Opening his eyes from the feeling of suffocation, he couldn't help but take a few deep breaths, like a drowning child, finally surfaced.

After a while of relief, I realized that it was dawn and I seemed to be in a carriage.In the air is the bluegrass fragrance from the dream, something flashed in my mind, but I didn't catch it, it seemed to be related to the bluegrass fragrance.

The carriage was bumping, and she sat up, with two large boxes beside her.She immediately lifted the curtain of the car and looked out. The wheat seedlings on both sides of the road were green, the birds were chirping among the trees, and butterflies occasionally flew down on the wild flowers.

He raised his hand to knock on the front door, but suddenly thought of something to stop.Glancing at the two wooden boxes beside her, they were not locked, so she simply opened them.The first wooden box contained some fine silk and satin, and a small box.Open it casually, and inside the small box are some jewelry and money.These are enough for an ordinary family to eat and drink for a lifetime.

After closing it, she opened the second box, which contained bamboo slips, scrolls, pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and a package.She grabbed the package, which contained clothes and the like.Just as she was about to close the box, she caught a glimpse of a letter in the scroll and pulled it out.

There was no word on the envelope, so she hesitated to open it.The letter was written by King Xi to Mr. Zhen, first to thank him for his kindness, and then to ask him to take her out of Chang'an, and to make a register for them, and to hide their names in the future, and never return to Chang'an.

She flipped through the scroll and found two books, the names and ages of which had been changed.

She was a little dazed, and suddenly had the feeling of being trafficked by King Xi and Mr. Meng, and immediately made up her mind, but couldn't figure out what was going on.In the end, I still couldn't help but raise my hand in doubt and curiosity to slap on the car door. At that moment, countless pictures appeared in my mind, and I pieced together a memory.

Zhen Mengsheng, born in a scholarly family, had a marriage contract with Zheng Yuben, and they were also childhood sweethearts.Many years ago, the Zheng family was in trouble, and Zheng Yu became the secretary of Jiaofang.She knew that she had no chance with Zhen Mengsheng in this life, and she also gave up unrealistic fantasies about Zhen Mengsheng.

In order to survive better, she worked hard to practice dancing, and climbed up to the emperor by virtue of her dancing posture, appearance and charm.But they don't know that life in the harem is more difficult.

These years, in order not to cause lovesickness in vain, she did not ask about Zhen Mengsheng.She hadn't heard of the fact that Zhen Mengsheng had saved his life in King Xi's letter.Whether King Xi took her out of the palace at such a risk simply because of this kindness is still unknown.

There are also some sporadic and trivial memories of Zheng Yu over the years, including the fact that she was framed by Jiang Jieyu, which is the origin of those charges.

These were all things she hadn't inherited from Zheng Yu's memory before, and she didn't expect them to emerge at this time.

She really doubted whether the "Book of Boudoir Poems" she was reading was a pirated book!
