Gongshang Confidante

After leaving the door, Hua Yi searched for the kitchen. A girl with thin eyes and fair complexion was working diligently, wearing the clothes of a first-class court lady, but doing the work of the last-class court lady, "Sister Xia Zhi, Are you making something delicious for His Highness again?" Hua Yi poked his head over and said with a smile.

Xia Zhi rolled his sleeves and was kneading a ball of dough. His appearance was mediocre, but his culinary skills were excellent, and he said, "The peach blossoms are in full bloom right now. Let me make some peach cakes for Your Highness, and then brew two pots of peach blossom wine for the time of viewing the flowers." time use",

Hua Yi walked around Xia Zhi with her hands behind her back, looked left and right, and praised, "Sister Xia Zhi is a good craftsman, but she hides here all day, and no one else knows that there is a capable maid in front of His Highness, Sister Xia. Too wronged",

Xia Zhi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Stay here and feel comfortable, no matter what others think, you, don't be around the bush, talk about something",

"It's nothing, really." Hua Yi shook his head seriously, and continued to look at the surroundings, looking around, feeling around, and finally couldn't hold back, pretending to mention it casually, "You said, this person is going to be hit by a board, What should I eat, the wound will heal faster?",

Xia Zhi burst out laughing, tapped Huayi's nose with flour-stained fingers, and she quickly dodged it, "I heard Commander Ye was hit by a board, did Xiaoyi come for him?",

"Who is here for him? I'm just afraid of delaying his gestures with me," Hua Yi said with staring eyes, picked up the white radish on the table next to him, shook his cuffs, held a small knife in his hand, and scratched at it ,

"The wound is healed, that is big bone soup, soybean and pig skin jelly, and then apply Jinchuang medicine, and it will be healed soon." Xia Zhi looked at Huayi, who was concentrating on carving radishes, and said with a light smile,

Huayi took back the knife in his hand, handed the radish carved into a little rabbit to Xia Zhi, and said with a smile, "Then there will be sister Lao Xiazhi, I'll come and get it tomorrow",

Xia Zhi washed his hands, took the little rabbit, and responded readily, "Sister Xia Zhi is so kind." Hua Yi took her arm and acted coquettishly. Seeing Xia Hua walk in, he taunted with disgust, "Hua Hero There are also times when you act like a baby."

"Miss Xia also snores sometimes? It's not surprising." Hua Yi made a face at her, and before Xia Hua got angry, she quickly slipped out, holding the pastry that Xia Zhi gave her, shaking her head Walking outside, I feel very happy.

In the yard next to a wall, Xia Ling patted the quilt to dry, basking in the sun to remove moisture, looked up and saw Huayu with two legs hanging down from the treetops.

"Why is Miss Hua staying here alone?" Just now, the laughter from the next door seemed to be quite quiet here, Hua Yu turned over and sat on the treetop without answering.

"Girl Huayi is lively and lovable. Miss Huayu should spend more time with her sisters," Xia Ling said. Huayu didn't talk to her, so she tore off a leaf and blew it on her lips. A little melancholy, melodious and tactful like something on my mind.

Xia Ling looked at the sadness between Hua Yu's eyebrows and eyes, it was full of sadness, her face was still flat, and she didn't want to confide a word.

Sometimes, the words are difficult to export, and the heart is always expressed.I only wish you could hear me, I only wish you understood me.

The mist covered the bright moon, the night was thick, and an unexpected visitor came to Hulongju.

He was covered in black robes from head to toe, someone led the way with a lantern, and quietly entered Ye Fu's room.

Ye Fu's face turned pale, and he tried his best to sit on the cushion. He was neatly dressed and combed his hair in a bun. Hearing the sound of the door being pushed, he stood up quickly, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

The hood was removed, revealing a pink face, eyes like deep pools, "Your Highness", Ye Fu knelt down, "Master is injured, so there is no need to be polite", Zhou Chiyu raised his hand in the air , Ye Fu nodded, stood up, and said, "Your Highness, please visit Ye Fu late at night."

Zhou Chiyu took out a small bottle from his sleeve and said, "The best gold-creating medicine from the Western Regions can heal the wound as soon as possible." Ye Fu took it, "Thank you Dian □□shirt",

"Master is suffering," Zhou Chiyu said, "a little skin trauma", Ye Fu didn't care, just asked, "I heard that the empress empress and the king of Dian both recommended candidates for the commander of the imperial army to the emperor...",

"In charge of the Royal Guards of the imperial city closest to the emperor, everyone must want to use his own people," Zhou Chiyu replied, "Father has always relied heavily on Master, and he is temporarily easy to general. Right now, there is no suitable candidate for Father, so we can only choose one of the two",

Ye Fu lowered his head, clasped his hands, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging. Zhou Chiyu glanced at him and replied, "I have wronged Master this time." Ye Fu looked at Zhou Chiyu and remembered that when she was young, she was wearing old clothes and holding Mu Jian, following him to learn martial arts one by one, thinking about her little one

It seemed to follow behind him, calling sweetly, "Master", "Master",

In a blink of an eye, she grew up.

Ye Fu shook his head and said, "This injury is nothing, but I don't know who the emperor will appoint as the commander of the imperial guards?" Zhou Chiyu chuckled softly, "Father is seriously ill, but he is still cautious. Now, the prince has died. Li, he will definitely not let the imperial guards in the palace belong to the Queen's hands, so he ordered Chen Ming, who was recommended by the King of Dian, to temporarily act as the commander of the imperial guards."

"As expected by Your Highness," Ye Fu responded, since there was an assassin in the palace, every step was within Zhou Chiyu's expectation.

Zhou Chiyu raised his head slightly and looked at Ye Fu, "How many people in the imperial guards will obey the master after the position of commander is left behind?" Ye Fu said for a moment, "Chen Ming is greedy and stingy, and the imperial guards believe in him Not many, once he takes the position, he will eliminate dissidents and promote his own people, most of the imperial guards will stand by Ye Fu's side.

However, if you want to go against the commander's will and obey Ye Fu's orders, I'm afraid there are only three out of ten."

"That's enough," Zhou Chiyu frowned, "Chen Ming's new commander doesn't have a deep foundation, and coupled with the chaos in the imperial city, not many are willing to listen to him."

Ye Fu was a little skeptical, and said hesitantly, "Your Highness is sure that the third prince and the King of Dian will conspire with Chen Ming and lead troops into the palace?" Zhou Chiyu said, "The empress and the King of Dian are fighting for the commander of the imperial guards. , both sides have made wishful thinking, once the father..." Zhou Chiyu paused and said, "The struggle for the throne is inevitable."

Ye Fu sighed, the struggle for the throne in the past was accompanied by many bloody winds, which affected the whole family and punished its nine clans, but there are still some people who are desperate to look down on the dragon chair of the world.

"Master did it for Chi Yu, and Chi Yu will remember it in his heart," Zhou Chiyu said, "Your Highness is the person Ye Fu swore to protect, even if it is death, he will not hesitate." From that moment on, his and Zhou Chiyu's fates were bound together, one prospered and the other lost.

Zhou Chiyu helped Ye Fu up, and said, "Now, the King of Dian and the eldest princess's aunt have soldiers in their hands, and the commander of the imperial guards is also theirs. It's just that everything is ready, and the only thing I owe is Dongfeng..."

"This Dongfeng..." Ye Fu glanced at Zhou Chiyu, saw that her eyes were determined, and the corner of her mouth was smiling, and said, "It's coming soon, it's coming soon."

The night was thick, and the thick fog covered the bright moon. Zhou Chiyu's eyes were flickering with candlelight. She lowered her head slightly, covered her head with a black robe, and said, "It's late at night, Master, let's rest earlier."

Ye Fu complied, and seeing Zhou Chiyu turn around and leave again, he couldn't help asking, "These days, Your Highness is walking very close to Lord Su." The adults grew up together since they were young, and they have deep feelings, if, if..." Ye Fu's words were a little rough and hesitant, "I heard that Master Su has never betrothed anyone, every time I see Master Su, Ye Fu has something in his heart..."

"Master, you don't need to say anything." Zhou Chiyu straightened his back and said coldly. A trace of guilt flashed across Ye Fu's face. Zhou Chiyu took a breath and said, "Mu Xue said something to me."

"Whatever you think, I will; whatever you ask, I will give; wherever you go, I am there",

Ye Fu raised his head in surprise, and looked into Zhou Chiyu's eyes probing. The place was as quiet as a lake, without waves, and no thoughts could be seen.

"From now on, I don't want to mention her again," Zhou Chiyu said in a deep voice, "Ye Fu knows his mistakes and shouldn't speak nonsense, please forgive me, Your Highness." Ye Fu bowed his head and replied,

Zhou Chiyu said no more, opened the door and left.
