Tangci felt a sharp pain in his heart, and his fingertips trembled again from the bone-chilling coldness of An Ning's skin.

A face that has withstood the baptism of the years, a face so unfamiliar that almost no trace of childhood can be found in front of Tangci.

She smiled absent-mindedly, shook her head like self-deprecating, and suddenly nodded appreciatively. Finally, she wiped away the cigarette ash on the tip of her nose for An Ning. Pinching An Ning's cheek: "It is said that women's colleges have changed, but now you have lived up to the verdict of the beauty embryo I gave you at that time."

An Ning raised her head suddenly, and looked at Tang Ci with a pair of clear and clear eyes. Tang Ci did not avoid her empty eyes, and smiled warmly in return.

Just when Tangci stood up and wanted to rummage through the room for clean and thick clothes, An Ning suddenly got up from the ground with both hands and feet, and ran out barefoot, whispering softly while running: "Dead, Dead, dead..."

Chapter 25

In Miyagi's alleyway, two servants in green clothes walked.

One brow is wide open and looks majestic, and the corner of the other eye is drooping, showing a little timidity.

These two people were just sent by Tang Ci to serve tea for her. It is said that the duty rooms in the palace usually have hot tea, but An Ning's place has been deserted for more than ten years. A lot of laziness, tea with a slightly better quality was either secretly taken out of the palace to sell, or was used by the servants themselves when chatting and teasing, and the rest of the tea had long been moldy, so how could it be brewed for Tangci to drink? .

At first, he spoke to Tangci to please him, but it was just a trick he was used to in the palace to curry favor with dignitaries. Who would have thought that this lord would not go through the motions like the few lords who were ordered to visit before, and put on a long chat posture.So I had no choice but to think about asking for a bag of tea and a bowl of well water when I went to the dining room to pass on the longevity noodles, and brought them back with me.

At this moment, after turning another corridor, he was almost at the main entrance of the palace.

Among them, the shorter waiter was carrying a full food box, after thinking about it, he still had the courage to laugh aside and said: "You are so bold, how did we come up with the Jiji ceremony a year ago? Not to mention whether we can figure it out, if the items such as Jili crown clothes and hairpins are not reported to the clan's mansion and then purchased by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, we will not dare to do it even if we are talented manage."

Since Tang Ci was acting under the emperor's order, wouldn't lying to her be the same as lying to the emperor, which would be a serious crime of losing his head.

The tall servant didn't care, sneered, gave him a blank look, and pointed to the floor tiles under his feet: "Whoever works here can't live a life of juggling on the tip of a knife? According to you, you must Shy about one thing and one thing and another thing two things. During Xuanzong’s reign, the old ancestor who waited by the emperor’s side and concealed the news from Chengzu turned out to be a blind cat who happened to meet a dead mouse. It happened to be a bright future? That’s Jiji Li. What Princess Rou Ke mentioned was true, but she was out to keep filial piety for Princess Yu, but she was relying on her friendship with Prince Chu, who was the patriarch at the time, to let people pass this matter over to his old man's ears. Zi Ruanxu also had some pity for this niece, so he quietly wrote down a note on the file, and the gift list reported to the House of Internal Affairs was also very simple and rough. A few hairpins are not easy to cause trouble, and there is no wind làng."

The waiter had heard it thoroughly and understood it and listened to it. Because of His Highness An Ning's embarrassing status, His Majesty has often had nightmares in the past two years, and his temperament has also become a bit more difficult to guess. The Prince Chu remembered this for An Ning The first stage Ji Ji Li is even more so that almost no one dares to spread rumors about it.Therefore, as long as Shun Shun said what he said to Tang Ci just now in person without being red and out of breath, why worry about someone poking it out?

However, although King Yu's lineage is a king with a different surname, since his ancestor ascended the throne and was rewarded for his meritorious deeds and was named king, which of the princes in later generations is not only separated from the current emperor by blood brotherhood, if it is true in terms of seniority Said Rouke is no different from Prince Chu's niece and daughter.Furthermore, Prince Chu is nearly fifty years old, so he is also Rou Ke's elder.The waiter just heard him say that Rou Ke and Prince Chu had a relationship and almost couldn't hold back his mouth to laugh, so he hurriedly joked again.

"What do you know?" The waiter looked around vigilantly, and whispered when he saw no one around, "Dharma is about chance, being favored by the master is a chance, but if you are yourself, everyone would like to touch it Bodhisattva, you don't need others to support you, you can rise to the top by yourself. This Princess Rouke - I don't know if the old ancestor of King Yu showed her spirit and cast some spell on her to make her become old in the past. All the masters surnamed Tang in the entire palace city didn’t dislike her. It’s normal to have a good relationship with Prince Chu, but don’t blame me for not breaking up with you after hearing these stories. I have been a brother for several years, if I want to talk, I will tell you rare things."

The short waiter hurriedly agreed repeatedly, obviously impatient.

"You are young in the palace, and I don't know if you know Princess Yongjia." The cold wind poured into the collar of the servant, and he, who was already strong and bold from the cold, shivered, and hurriedly dragged another servant to hide in the corner Taking shelter from the wind, his voice was lowered a bit, "That is the one who is truly loved and protected by everyone. Your Highness Yiyang, you have never seen it, but at least you have heard of it? The late emperor was more used to His Highness Yiyang than His Majesty was at that time." I have no sense of propriety, I often hold her in my lap when I go to court, and when I see her not being scared to cry when Shanhu is long live, I am even more happy. I also passed by a few aunts and masters when I entered the palace to study etiquette and palace rules. I don’t know if I can take it seriously if I heard it under the window of the duty room. The children of the royal family are not much different from the folks, and they still have their hair cut when the full moon is full. Princess Yongjia was hugged by Empress Yici at that time. In his arms, whenever he saw the master of the grate room holding a knife and approached a few steps, his cries were like thunder, and the algae well on the top was shaken down. What tricks of feeding and comforting did not work? There is no way! Princess Rouke originally While watching the ceremony, I heard Princess Yongjia crying so hard that her voice was hoarse, and she couldn't help feeling distressed, so she rushed forward and kissed His Highness's little face, just once, the tears never fell again, she just smiled and giggled and stared at Princess Rouke Look. Do you think it's unusual?"

In the courtyard overgrown with weeds and withered flowers and trees, stands a dead tree that will grow to be as tall as a person.

An Ning was digging the soil with bare hands under the tree.

Because the years have passed, and there is no one to take care of watering or loosen the soil, even though it only rained last night, the soil as hard as rocks dug An Ning's hands and nails that had not been trimmed for a long time broke and leaked. The bright red blood melted bit by bit in the handful of yellow soil she dug out.

"Dead, dead, dead..." Just like when she ran out of the room in a daze, An Ning kept repeating her ravings, only these two words over and over again, nothing else.

When Tang Ci chased out of the room, he saw this dead tree from a distance that ordinary people would only glance at at most when passing by, and his footsteps immediately seemed heavy and slow like sandbags weighing dozens of kilograms.

After walking under the tree, she stretched out her hand and touched the thickest branch on it.

No, it should be said to be a half-branch—it is not known when it was cut off in half by someone, and only a short section less than half the length of the other branches was left alone on the tree. The color has long been tormented by the rain and snow that falls year after year, so that it loses its true nature, and it is dark and soft.

Tang Ci touched the exposed section of the branch with her fingertips, her lips were bitten until she lost all blood, and after a while, she looked at An Ning and asked softly, "Do you still remember----"

The words came to an abrupt end, An Ning's bloody fingers pierced into Tang Ci's eyes like sharp thorns, she rushed forward to grab An Ning's hands, which seemed to know no pain and no warmth, He stared angrily: "Stop digging, it's all bleeding!"

An Ning couldn't help shrinking back, eyes that were so clean that there was no debris at this moment were suddenly covered with deep fear, she didn't dare to look at this too beautiful young man in front of her again, she lowered her head and Tears whimpered and softly apologized: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
