drunk spring branch

Even though Ming Xuanjin only mentioned it in passing, and Su Ho only sneaked a few shy glances, but now Jing Zhu can't wait to pick up the tattered dog-beating stick he picked up before and make a big disturbance in the heavenly palace.

But for the sake of Ming Xuanyu, he still had to endure.

Ming Xuanjin, who started the incident, seemed to have forgotten what he had said, and changed the subject to talk about other things, so he touched Concubine Yu's slender hands.But Su Ho sneaked a sneaky glance from time to time, winked and glanced secretly.

Ming Xuanyu was as stable as Mount Tai, and he didn't even look at it. He still sat upright, expressionless, as cold as ice, like a statue, watching the singing and dancing in front of him indifferently, and occasionally exchanged a few simple greetings with the royal relatives who came to talk.

Jing Zhu didn't know those people, and he didn't want to know them. Seeing Su Ho's eyes, Jing Zhu felt upset and drank several sips of wine in one gulp. It was clear that he was the one who disliked the bad wine before.

"Stop drinking."

Ming Xuanyu frowned and looked sideways, stopping another glass of wine.

"Why don't you care about me, don't neglect Meijiao Niang."

Jing Zhu shook off the hand blocking the wine glass, and drank it down again.

Doesn't that eager look mean that the body has not moved and the heart is far away?The more Jing Zhu watched, the more inexplicably annoyed he became, he simply closed his eyes and sighed deeply, seeing that someone had left the table, he got up and left.

Ming Xuanyu obviously didn't expect Jing Zhu's sudden departure, he instinctively stretched out his hand to grab it, but only caught the air brushed by Jing Zhu's sleeve.

It was freezing cold outside, like a snowstorm was coming, and he went out without adding any clothes.Ming Xuanyu was a little worried, but as a prince, he couldn't leave so casually at this time.

In the midst of a dilemma, a dark fragrance passed by, and a pink figure came quietly.Only then did Ming Xuanyu notice that Su Ho had come over.But he didn't care to appreciate the charming smile and the beautiful eyes, he just responded with a few dispensable words in a simple and casual way, and when he saw Ming Xuanjin's meaningful smile from the side, he felt even more excited. Upset and irritable.

On the thick black night, there is a crescent moon hanging in the sky like a bow and knife.There was a faint night wind blowing, and it was as cold as needles passing through the skin.

Jing Zhu sneezed and rubbed his shoulders, only then did he realize that the inside and outside of the hall were completely like two seasons.

Running away in such a rage, she was like a naive child. Jing Zhu felt ashamed of her subconscious behavior without thinking, but she continued to stay in that place looking at Su Ho's eyes, and couldn't help but want to get angry.

Walk aimlessly, don't know where to go, go wherever there is a road, and walk as you like if there is a fork in the road.While thinking about going back if he calmed down, he was thinking about what to do to disturb King Xiang.Jing Zhu gritted his teeth and scratched his head, he didn't know when, he had changed into this picture of being entangled in being alone, timid and overly coquettish.

The night was getting darker, even the crescent moon was shrouded in dark clouds, the cold wind was piercing, and in a trance, there were already sprinkling snowflakes, flying between the sky and the earth, showing their shapes under the bright and gorgeous lamps everywhere in the palace.

Can't help shivering, Jing Zhu sniffed, intending to stop this ridiculous impulsiveness, or go back the same way.But walking, this huge palace turned into a maze.

Yes, Jing Zhu realized that the consequence of wandering around is getting lost.

This is no better than the Prince Xiang's Mansion that he has become familiar with, and it is even less a slum on the outskirts of the city.It was really too willful just now, but now Jing Zhu suddenly became anxious.

In short, just go to the crowded place first, and there will always be someone who knows the way back.Maybe because he was walking in a hurry and wanted to get out of this deserted and remote path as soon as possible, Jing Zhu's steps also became anxious. In this hurry, he accidentally kicked something on the side of the gravel road, and his toes hurt.

Enduring the pain, Jing Zhu leaned over to check.With the faint light of the scattered lanterns on the side of the road, I realized that it was a copper pot the size of a face plate. The surface of the pot was finely carved but covered with moss. It should have been filled with rainwater from the previous rain, so it gained some weight to Kick a sore toe.

However, this thing seems to sell for a good price, in exchange for some wine.Just as Jing Zhu was about to pick it up, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't picked up junk for a long time, and when he saw these abandoned junk, he still wanted to pick it up out of habit.

"Ah, what annoyance! Ming Xuanyu, you bastard, why didn't you pull me to order! Hmph!"

Jing Zhu pursed his lips and muttered in a low voice.

He thought that no one was around, so he dared to comfort himself like this, but Jing Zhu suddenly heard the slight rustling of branches not far away from the bamboo forest beside the stone road behind him.

"Who?!"

Jing Zhu turned around vigilantly and shouted.

"At the foot of the emperor, in the imperial city, it's probably inappropriate to be so disrespectful to the prince, right?"

A deep and deep male voice came from among the bamboo branches.

With a plop, the speaker should have jumped down from the tree.But the sound of the landing was light and steady, and it should be a practitioner.

The man had no intention of hiding, and approached gradually.With the fine snow flying all over the sky, a black dress gradually appeared, with a chilling sternness.

"Forgive me, but your Excellency must have heard it wrong. How dare you insult Lord Xiang, a mere grassroots. Dare to ask your honorable name?"

Jing Zhu was neither humble nor overbearing, and bowed his hands generously to salute.

"Life is worth nothing, and a name is not worth mentioning."

The man in black was modest, but he avoided answering.

In this secret place, in the dark night, she is dressed in black, her hair is like splashed ink, and the black veil wraps her facial features and appearance, making it impossible to peep.It can only be seen that the person who comes is tall, thin and powerful, awe-inspiring but decisive.

"Then don't bother me, my lord, please go ahead."

Jing Zhu greeted casually, and wanted to leave the place quickly.

"Sure enough, you and your mother look very similar. With this trace of charm, it's no wonder that the imperial concubine Lian of the former dynasty liked it."

The man in black looked at the back who was about to leave, and said as if talking to himself.

But this light sentence was keenly captured by Jing Zhu.

In the previous dynasty, the noble concubine Lianhuang... I heard from Boss Zhou of Zuixian Pavilion before that she was the biological mother of the current King Xiang, but she passed away suddenly when she was gaining favor back then, and she left in an inexplicable way, which made people panic.

Most of the concubines in the previous dynasty were crowned concubines after Ming Xuanjin ascended the throne.Only the Lotus Emperor Concubine has always been the Lotus Emperor Imperial Concubine. Even the brocade fan embroidered with gold silk and black feathers embroidered with a lotus pattern that she used frequently during her lifetime has become a forbidden item that symbolizes her. It seems that the fan with the lotus pattern Everything became taboo overnight.After many years, only the current King Xiang in the entire capital dared to use the Snow Jade Lotus Fan blatantly in front of the emperor.

It seems that the man in black knows a lot about Ming Xuanyu.But what Jing Zhu didn't expect was that what he said meant that his own mother was also involved with Imperial Concubine Lian?How much does he know about these past events?

Jing Zhu's brain was running fast, and he thought about things about his mother.In my impression, my mother had nothing to do with the world, she was as pale as autumn water.Not to mention overpowering the country, she is also as beautiful as a flower, but a scar on her face always scares others, but mother never tells the origin of that scar.As for his father, he has a big family and a big business, maybe he will have something to do with the royal family.

However, as a woman from an ordinary family, how could Niangqin get to know Concubine Lianhuang?Or is it that the understanding of mother is too lacking?

Jing Zhu felt a headache, but he also knew that interrogating the man in black might not gain anything, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.But at a quick glance, this man, who was completely black from head to toe, was so black that he was almost hidden in the night, his eyes were as sharp as knives, unlike ordinary people.

"who are you?"

Jing Zhu turned around, frowned and asked.However, no answer was expected.

"Go straight from here, turn left at the intersection, and walk southwest for a while, and you can go back."

The man in black answered irrelevantly, turned and walked away, and then disappeared in the dark night.

Originally, Jingzhu was not the main monitoring task.Du Yuan fought a beautiful victory and will return to Beijing to report on his duties soon.Yan Guichen knew that he had more important things to do.
