Shu Yao's life was almost ruined this time. Empress Zhong thought of Yu Shu's departure eight years ago, and compared it with Shu Yao, her eyes turned red, and she secretly wiped her tears every day.

The maid who served Queen Zhong in the palace sneaked out and told Shu Yao to visit Queen Zhong more often.

In fact, Shu Yao often went to Empress Zhong's place. In the past, Empress Zhong would also come to Pingqing Palace to see her, and Shu Yao went even more diligently after the incident happened in the past few days.

"Empress, the third princess asks to see you." A maidservant came to report outside. Empress Zhong was still sad, but when she heard Shu Yao coming, she immediately hid the handkerchief under the quilt, sat upright, "Quickly declare."

After a while, Shu Yao opened the curtain, and saw the red eyes of her, Yuchen's concubine, at a glance.

She felt a little distressed.

"Concubine mother, don't cry... Shu Yao is fine." Shu Yao consciously sat down beside Queen Zhong, and even wiped her eyes a few times with her hands, but there were no tears.

Empress Zhong smiled, feeling ashamed of being punctured. After all, after a country, how decent it is for children to see her cry, and there is no example, "Mother Concubine didn't cry, it was Yaoer who misunderstood .”

Of course Shu Yao was not mistaken, but following Queen Zhong's wishes, she nodded her head and said "Oh", "That's Shu Yao's mistake!"

Empress Zhong looked at her innocent little fool, and suddenly felt a little sour on the tip of her nose.

Fortunately, she should have Little General Mu now.

With Little General Mu around, she can rest assured.

"Shu Yao came to see Concubine Mother, why doesn't Concubine Mother smile?" Shu Yao waved his hands and asked his servants to bring up a bowl of fruit and peel longan for her.

Empress Zhong sniffed her nose a few times, and said with a smile: "Of course my concubine laughed, how did Yao'er see that my concubine didn't smile?"

Shu Yao looked at Empress Zhong dully, and then smiled.

Empress Zhong retreated from everyone, leaving only Shu Yao and her.

"Yao'er, you just split up, is there anything uncomfortable?" Queen Zhong had protected Shu Yao very well before, and she hadn't told her many things.

Shu Yao shook her head.

As a concubine, she didn't even know that she had split up nearly a month ago.

Except that the rain and dew period has just passed, and I don't have much strength, I don't feel any discomfort.

Seeing her shaking her head, Queen Zhong relaxed slightly.

You must know that the first differentiation, if not handled well, will easily leave some other root causes in the future.

Especially Yuchen, who is already weak.

Shu Yao peeled a longan, gave away the core inside, and handed it to the concubine mother.

Empress Zhong smiled gratifiedly and touched Shu Yao, took it and ate it in one bite.

"Recently, the people outside the palace are going to hold a ceremony to worship the gods. If you want to go, the concubine mother asked your father to give permission." After this incident, Queen Zhong felt that Shu Yao should not be locked in the palace all the time, and she should go out more to see the outside world. .

Shu Yao didn't answer.

Leaving the palace?She seems to have been out of the palace for a long time.

"Can Shu Yao bring someone..." She asked in a low voice.

Queen Zhong nodded, "Of course."

Shu Yao whispered, "It's not a guard."

The concubine might only allow her to bring a group of guards out of the palace, after all, what happened just now.

It's just that Queen Zhong still gave a "hmm" to her surprise.

Queen Zhong: "You take General Mu there."

Shu Yao was taken aback, then looked at her: "Concubine Mu...?"

How did she know that she was thinking of Mu Huaijin just now?

She was still thinking just now, if Concubine Guo just asked her to take some guards out to play, then she would rather not go and not have fun.

Unexpectedly, when the concubine mother said to take someone out, she meant to take Mu Huaijin.

Shu Yao was a little surprised.

Empress Zhong looked at her child's red ears, and guessed what it was.

It seems that this silly boy already has someone in his heart.

He still kept it a secret from her.

"Yao'er, my concubine hasn't said these things to you before, but today, my concubine feels that it's okay to say it."

Shu Yao: "What?"

Empress Zhong pointed to her heart, "Guess, what's there for my concubine?"

Shu Yao hesitated for a second, half-understood and said: "... Heart?"

On the left side of the ribcage, there should only be the heart.

Empress Zhong nodded with a smile, and said softly, "What's in that heart?"

Shu Yao let out an "ah".

Inside the heart... what will there be?

Empress Zhong had a smile on her face, quietly waiting for Shu Yao's answer.

Shu Yao seemed to think of something, but hesitated for a second, and still didn't speak.

"The heart belongs to the concubine mother. Yao'er may not know it." Queen Zhong took Shu Yao's hand, placed it on Shu Yao's own heart, and whispered: "Don't talk, feel carefully."

Shu Yao: "...?"

The bedroom fell silent.

The heart is beating, once and for all, beating regularly.

Shu Yao felt it.

"This place, even though it's so small, can hold a lot of things." Queen Zhong smiled and said, "You can feel it, my heart is beating, just like playing a rhythmic piece of music."

"But in a piece of music, there should always be highs and lows. If it is calm from the beginning to the end, then the song will become boring."

Shu Yao was a little dazed, "Concubine Mother...what exactly do you want to tell Shu Yao?"

Empress Zhong said: "My concubine's heart, after meeting your father, will play a different tune from before."

"It became light and jumpy, as if it wasn't my own. Later, your royal father settled here."

"Yao'er's heart is also playing a tune. Let my concubine guess, has the person who can make your heart play a different rhythm appear?"

Now Shu Yao understood what Empress Zhong was saying, she just felt that Mu Huaijin was not in front of her eyes at all, but just thinking of her would make her heart thump and get confused.

"Concubine Mother...it seems..." Shu Yao shook her head, "I don't know...it seems that there is someone living here, and it seems that there is no..."

"Is Shu Yao sick?" Water mist appeared in Shu Yao's eyes. This person who had no real blood relationship with her had said so much in front of her.

Shu Yao suddenly became more confused.

She was obviously only here to comfort Queen Zhong, but in the end, it seemed that she was the one who was comforted?

Her feelings for Mu Huaijin seemed to become more and more strange, more and more incomprehensible.

Shu Yao leaned against Queen Zhong's arms, not knowing what to say for a while.

Shu Yao is the child of Empress Zhong, and she can tell at a glance that she is currently in a period of emotional confusion.

This is the first time this child has encountered such a situation, so she can't speak too directly, how she treats that feeling, she has to deal with it by herself.

"Go for a stroll outside the palace, Yao'er." Empress Zhong patted Shu Yao's back lightly like a child, and said softly: "Go there for a stroll, maybe you can figure it out. "

In the past few days, Mu Huaijin sent Shu Yao to and from school as usual, but she also noticed something unusual, this little fool seemed not as clingy as before.

After the two temporary marks, shouldn't it be more wanting to get closer to Chixia?

Mu Huaijin soon knew the answer to this question - after she sent Shu Yao to the Imperial College, Empress Zhong ordered someone to call her into the palace and said something.

Empress Zhong said, seeing that Shu Yao has been absent-minded recently because of that matter, tomorrow is the annual god sacrifice festival for the common people, and there will be many novelties that cannot be seen in the palace.

Queen Zhong wanted her to take Shu Yao out to relax.

"But...the third princess, if she doesn't want to go, I..." Mu Huaijin didn't understand, Shu Yao was usually accompanied by guards when she went out of the palace, why now, the queen suddenly asked her to take her out to play?

"She wants to go." Queen Zhong interrupted her, "What Yao'er is thinking, you should actually understand better than me as a mother and concubine."

Mu Huaijin was stunned.

How could she understand what the little fool was thinking?

"A Jin." Empress Zhong handed a token to Mu Huaijin, "She treats you differently, and you must have noticed it."

Mu Huaijin's hand that took the token almost trembled, and looked at Queen Zhong in a daze.

The third princess, she treats herself differently...

That being said, it does seem to be a little different.

At least, the third princess only gave her candy for one person.

Mu Huaijin suddenly panicked, and her heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. She was thinking about a possibility that she had thought about before, but didn't dare to think about it any more—the princess liked her.

But in her eyes, the third princess has always been that little fool. She treats her well, and she is afraid because of the temporary mark, or because she has not seen her brutality on the battlefield.

If one day she sees it all, will she feel terrible...

Empress Zhong has been in a country for many years, seeing Du Mu Huaijin bowing her head in thought, she understood something in her heart.

One was too dull, and the other refused to speak.

Like this, when will it last?

"You can mention it to her." Empress Zhong smiled and said, "If I tell her, she will hesitate, but if Ah Jin mentions it to Yao'er, she will definitely go."

Mu Huaijin was puzzled.

Why would the third princess definitely go as long as she brought it up?

At this moment, she was standing outside the Imperial College, and she saw the third princess in the crowd at a glance.

It was as if she was the only one in the entire Imperial College, so it was natural for her eyes to fall on her.

Shu Yao and Mu Huaijin looked at each other, were startled, and turned their heads away.

"Princess..." Mu Huaijin called out to her.

"Little General Mu, you're here to pick up Sister Shu Yao again!" The children around me didn't understand, they only regarded Mu Huaijin as an amiable older sister, not at all respectful to her like those ministers.

"Sister Shu Yao and Sister Mu have a good relationship..."

"Come here every day, Sister Mu is so busy in court, and she comes to pick up Sister Shu Yao every day..."

Shu Yao blushed when she heard what the group of children said, and hesitated on the spot, not daring to go forward.

Mu Huaijin noticed Shu Yao's strangeness, and sent them away with a few casual words.

The children's noise gradually faded away, Mu Huaijin looked at Shu Yao who was still standing there, pretended nothing happened, and said with a light smile, "Third Princess, I'm here to pick you up."

Only then did Shu Yao turn her head to look at her, and followed Mu Huaijin obediently, like a child who made a mistake and was taken back from school by his parents to receive punishment.

The next second, Mu Huaijin stopped suddenly, and Shu Yao didn't stop the car, and bumped into her.

Shu Yao raised her head in a daze.

Mu Huaijin turned around, blocking the sunlight, and covering Shu Yao in the shadow.

Shu Yao: "...?"

Mu Huaijin looked calm: "Princess, I have a request."

Shu Yao's heart beat faster: "...W-what?"

Mu Huaijin: "I want to go to the God Sacrifice Festival tomorrow."

Shu Yao was taken aback.

"Can you? Princess." Mu Huaijin put her hands on Shu Yao's shoulders, looked her in the eyes and said, "I want...to go with you."

I want to work with the princess to do something that she has never done in the previous life.

Watching fireworks, eating candied haws, like a child, you can do whatever you want, and you don't have to worry about those so-called family responsibilities.

Know what you want and go after it without hesitation.

Shu Yao mumbled, without answering.

She looked into Mu Huaijin's eyes, where her figure was reflected.

Mu Huaijin surrounded her shadow with a star-like light.

Shu Yao lowered her head and whispered, "No...don't..."

Mu Huaijin was startled, and the hand on Shu Yao's shoulder loosened a little.

Shu Yao pursed her lips, pushed Mu Huaijin away, and let herself run away.

Mu Huaijin didn't catch up, but stood there looking at her back, dazed for a moment.

The third princess should not say that she should not go to the God Sacrifice Festival with her.

She thought of Shu Yao's flushed face just now.

The worries in her heart disappeared at once, and Mu Huaijin picked up the safety talisman that Shu Yao dropped on the ground when she left just now.

After eight years, the gloss on it has not changed at all.

Well protected.

There was a slight smile in Mu Huaijin's eyes.

It's not that I don't want to go.

It was because of a little fool who put her in his heart.

Now I suddenly become smarter, and I am afraid to face my heart.
