Qi Yu stood aside, quietly waiting for the concubine Rou to finish her nine obeisances before the gods, and then got up to beckon him over.

"Master Qi came here today, what is the important thing?" Concubine Rou cleaned her hands, took the teacup from the maid's hand and began to taste it.

After being away from home for more than ten years, except for her growing respect and love for her heavenly father, there is no difference between her and the girl in Daning.

"Your Majesty sent your slaves here," Qi Yu said respectfully, "Your Majesty asked you how things are going with Liu Jieyu."

The hand holding the teacup suddenly trembled, and the concubine's armor knocked against the porcelain, making a crisp "dang" sound, and tea was spilled, and the maid beside her wanted to wipe it for her, so she avoided it.

After a while, Concubine Rou put down the teacup.

"You all go down, call Ayimu, let her serve a cup of good tea to Director Qi."

Ayimu is the personal maid brought by Concubine Rou from her hometown, there is nothing that needs to be kept from her.

Soon, a woman with a foreign appearance handed over a tray. Qi Yu glanced at it, took the teacup on it with both hands without much hesitation.

The tea soup was boiling hot, and he was not given a table and chair, so he could only stand and hold it in his hand, and the palm of his hand was soon blistered.

Concubine Rou calmed down, slowly came to her senses, and said coldly: "It is impossible for His Majesty to send you to speak about this matter, why would you lie."

Qi Yu knelt down obediently: "This servant deserves to die."

"You deserve to die if you pretend to deceive the emperor, but since you have come to my Palace of Yanxi Palace, I won't let you die." Roupin stood up, walked in front of him and sneered.

"Today's divination, the heavenly father said that there is a ray of wind that will carry seeds and bring new life to this dead land, but I really didn't expect it to be such an arrogant person like you."

Qi Yu didn't speak, but knelt on the ground respectfully, still holding the cup of tea in his hand, his palm became red and swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Madam, calm down."

Concubine Rou looked at him: "Tell me, what do you want to know, how dare you fool me, aren't you afraid that Bengong will tell His Majesty what you did today and beat you to death?"

"I want to know the incense of the late Princess Bai, your incense, and the incense of the concubine. As for where the slave's courage comes from..." Qi Yu raised his head and looked through her at the gods and demons in the hall.

"The empress is kind and can't bear more injustices in the palace, so she opened the door to let the wind into the house. The slaves also don't want their seeds to wither in this barren soil, so they boldly gamble on the piety of the empress to the heavenly father." .”

"The empress treats the heart of the heavenly father to be 'pure'."

The hall was filled with smog, and fresh melons and fruits were offered in front of the statue. Rou Bi looked down at the people kneeling on the ground with a somewhat dazed expression.

Heavenly Father, it turns out that in the court of the Central Plains, there are people who understand you and me, whether he is the "wind" you mentioned.

The tall temples and the low and gloomy sky on the grasslands of the Western Regions seem to have happened in her previous life. Perhaps it is because she has long realized that she is a lonely soul abandoned by her hometown, so over the years, her hometown has gradually disappeared from her memory. go.

But she still remembered that Si Ming stroked her forehead and said, princess, you are the cleanest ice hanging on the top of the temple, but before the heavenly father had time to choose you as a saint, the king dedicated you to the people of the Central Plains. emperor.

She asked, can't Heavenly Father protect me?

Si Ming shook his head, people in the world are soaked in turbid amniotic fluid before they are born, the world is full of suffering, even the supreme god can only protect the last touch of pure heart in the midst of all sorrows, but you treat the sky with a "pure heart" Father, the soul can ascend to heaven.

At that time, the Eldest Princess thought that Si Ming meant that although she suffered the pain of parting and married far away, she could no longer serve the gods in the temple, but it didn't matter, purity and kindness were more precious than anything else, and the heavenly father would not blame her.

Now the concubine Rou understands that Si Ming is actually telling her that even if one day her hands are stained with blood and haunted by wronged souls, she will never give up on herself no matter what, because she knows that the gods are merciful and the wicked are worthy of repentance. This is so as not to degenerate into a demon.

"Director Qi, please get up," Concubine Rou said with compassion in her eyes, "Ayimu, please sit down for Chief Qi, and see what it looks like to talk while kneeling."

After Qi Yu left, Zhou Shuhe ordered the congratulatory gifts from the people in the palace, went to Liu Jieyu's to thank him, talked to Chen Qingming for a while, came back for lunch, took a nap, got up and moved around for a while Muscles and bones, I am going to make a longan red date tremella soup and send it to the emperor to express my heart.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the small kitchen, Wu Xuan, the eunuch from Lanfang Pavilion, came in and passed on the tremella before it was soaked, saying that Qi Zhang had come to return to his life.

Zhou Shuhe was a little surprised, and couldn't help but doubt himself: "He found out so quickly? Could it be that this is something that everyone knows?"

Jiyue smiled and said, "Qi Zhang has always been like this."

Right.

Zhou Shuhe smiled helplessly, after all, this person has always been able to accomplish things that ordinary people cannot.

The small kitchen of Yihe Palace is not connected to Lanfang Pavilion, so she had to enter from the outside of the hall when returning to the house. As soon as she stepped over the threshold, she saw Qi Yu standing alone in the yard.

Zhou Shuhe didn't call anyone to see him, Qi Yu didn't want to rush into the house, so he observed the carvings on the door of Lanfang Pavilion when he had nothing to do.

This door probably hasn't been changed for a long time. It looks old. You can mention it to the emperor in two days. It just so happens that Zhou Shuhe is in favor now. If he mentions it again, the emperor will definitely send someone to rebuild the Lanfang Pavilion for her. The more you pay, the better it will be. The more she can't give up, the more she goes back and forth like this, gradually there is nothing she can't fight for.

Jiyue was about to summon him as usual, but Zhou Shuhe shook his head, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "What are you looking at, why don't you go in?"

Qi Yu was shocked, and turned around to see that she was the one who relaxed: "I think the weather is fine today, so I think the lady is also happy."

"That's right." Zhou Shuhe said softly, "Go in and have a seat. It's winter in the capital, even if it's cloudless, it's still cold."

After finishing speaking, she entered the room first, and Qi Yu lowered her eyebrows behind her, followed her three steps away, and followed her in.

Just now when he was looking at his back, Zhou Shuhe suddenly felt that it was a good thing that standing here at this time was himself who had lived a new life.

Although she didn't have the romantic sincerity of her childhood, she could even plot against the people she trusted the most, but she still wanted to get someone to help her make it through knowing that it was a difficult time.

But if she was really 16 years old, she wouldn't understand Qi Yu's waiting for half a moment today and looking away in three steps.

He tried his best to help her, obeyed her will and called himself "I", and calmly dealt with her when she was not comfortable, but he was so strict that he divided the distance between them almost harshly.

Never enter without summons, abide by duty and walk one step behind the "master".

This is not the posture of a companion who watches over and helps each other. He regards himself as a stepping stone to lift Zhou Shuhe to a high position.

But she can't say anything.

In her previous life, she was still a young man, so she was willing to exchange the jade pendant of love for half a liter of rice in her stomach.A lifetime later, could it be that in this life she will be like a silly girl, for the sake of the so-called friendship of others, instead of going up that stepping stone, she will lift him up, hug him, tie her head on the waistband of her trousers, Is it lingering under the dangerous wall?
