Evil Love: Clouds Overwhelm the World

172. Stay in Xiaoxiang Pavilion

The desolation of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion is hard to describe in words. When I looked up, I saw dead grass and cobwebs all over the corners. I wonder if no one has set foot in it for a long time. When I got it, the simple palace gate was already rusted. like a muffled sound.

"Originally, the Xiaoxiang Pavilion was the quietest and warmest place in the imperial palace. I never expected it to be so dilapidated and dilapidated." Zhang Rui murmured softly and retreated all the palace people who followed, and only walked in with Peng Yun. There are only rustling footsteps between people, as well as faint conversational sounds, which can be found in this extremely quiet place, and the heartbeats of both of them feel disturbing.

"Why didn't you come to your Uncle Peng first when you came back? Now that the situation is so unstable, what are you doing when you come back?" Seeing Zhang Rui ignoring him from the beginning to the end, Peng Yun grabbed Zhang Rui's thin arm and grabbed Zhang Rui's thin arm. Pulling him towards him, two pairs of big hands hugged him tightly, facing him.

Zhang Rui just sneered a few times, and pushed his hand away dismissively. He fiddled with his hem steadily but not chaotically. Now he is only familiar with the two gurgling streams, the lush withered grass, and the overlapping forests, which obscured the original beauty. The courtyard was left in a dilapidated and desolate place. This huge palace has no old people, no love, and only the yellowish history is left like a cloud of smoke. The unbelievably cold scenery at this high place has not changed, it remains the same.

"Then why did you come back? I'm afraid it's not just to save me? Don't you always dislike getting into trouble? Just tell me if you have something..."

"You bastard! Why are you talking to Uncle Peng... You Uncle Peng is not doing it for your own good, you bastard!" As soon as Zhang Rui made the call, Peng Yun choked with chest tightness and coughed violently. He coughed violently again.

"Uncle Peng, you are old now, so you should pay more attention to your body. In the old age of humanity, you should be happy with your destiny. Don't be obsessed with some extravagant thoughts, lest you will not be able to spend your old age peacefully and understand this life amidst the turmoil of war. , maybe even..." Turning around suddenly, staring straight at the old man in front of him with piercing eyes, he uttered the most frightening four words, "I will not die well."

"You..." Peng Yun didn't expect Zhang Rui to say such a thing at all, every word in these words was thorny, and every word was heartfelt. "What exactly are you trying to say..."

"It's not what I want to say...but what you want to say...Master Peng, if you have something to say, you can just say it. With the friendship between Master Peng and my father, my nephew will definitely help me a lot. Of course, this also depends on my nephew's ability. within." Suddenly a small peachwood box came into view and fell into the carved cabinet in the corner. Zhang Rui was startled, and when he was flustered, he calmed himself down, took a deep breath, turned to look at Peng Yun, subconsciously Moved a little to the side to block the closet behind him, "The servants below have said that the study and the main hall have been cleaned up. If Mr. Peng wants to say something, we might as well talk slowly in the study."

When the two of them entered the yard, several eunuchs came to the group, and when they saw the two of them came out, they greeted each other, "Master Peng, Mr. Zhang is auspicious. Concubine Yun Gui ordered the servants to take good care of you two, and said Xiaoxiang The hall has been empty all year round, so a lot of dust inevitably accumulated, and I specially asked the servants to clean it carefully inside and out, so that Mr. Zhang would not live in a comfortable way."

After pondering for a while, Zhang Rui always felt that these unfamiliar servants seemed to have some other purpose, and after thinking for a while, he asked, "You used to serve Concubine Yun Gui?"

"Concubine Yun Gui is kind to your lord, it is likely that your lord has not been in the palace for a long time and the servants are not good enough to serve you, so hereby we have dispatched the most clever servants from all the palaces to come here and wait for your lord's order." Concubine Yun Gui is really shrewd, Zhang Rui can't help but think to himself, Unavoidably, he became suspicious, and indeed he picked a clever eunuch to come to him to test him out. I am afraid his real purpose is to find someone to find out why he chose the palace of the deposed empress dowager alone. Not only that, the overall situation in the world is so unstable now, if he wants to keep his position, he can only be very careful, how could he not pay attention to Peng Yun's reckless return to the palace.

"Seeing that you are so careful and appropriate in doing things, it must have been done by Concubine Yun herself. Then... I have a matter here that can only be handled by you. It is the most appropriate." A jade bottle, and handed it to the leading eunuch, "Concubine Yun Gui is always in good spirits, but when I entered the palace today, I found that he also had some white hair on his temples, and he was very tired. It must be because he was too tired recently. For the body and mind, this bottle of clearing muscle ointment was made by myself. It was used to heal Concubine Yun Gui’s wounds in the past, and it has been kept in preparation since then. When I tell Concubine Yun, we have gone to sea together, so why bother to torture each other? Negative."

These words are for Yun Shen, and especially for Concubine Yun Gui. Everyone in this world knows that one of the most important reasons for his feud with Murong Yujiang is Yun Shen. I understand what is called Wenrouxiang Hero Tomb, Wenrouxiang is not a shuriken, it's just that you can't help yourself because of your affection, fate is always the most elusive.

He has never really stood beside Yun Shen or Gu Changmen. No matter how smart Concubine Yun Gui is, she cannot be sure whether he has recognized his true identity. Although he does not understand why Concubine Yun Gui is so eager to destroy this The opportunity to draw him into his subordinates, insist on being hostile to him, and make yourself an extra enemy, isn't it more dangerous.

However, he still wants to test the thoughts of this Concubine Yun, he wants to use that period of history to confuse his eyes, and then let him fall into the trap dug by Dangru himself.

"This... we are under orders..." The consular eunuch hesitated and obviously didn't want to leave. Did he glance at the side hall where Zhang Rui and the two had just walked out? This flustered look also confirmed Zhang Rui's speculation that he was originally a The reckless person just stayed by Yun Shen's side for a long time, and he has learned some of his skills by himself.

"Don't you know that Mr. Peng and I are quiet people. We wanted to catch up on the old days. You brought these people here. When we were talking about the old days, you were cleaning here and making such a big noise. We How can you talk, and besides, you have cleaned up the main hall and study room, which is enough, those places used to be the residence of the old lady, and you don't want to touch the old man..." When Zhang Rui said this, the eunuchs Obviously retreating half a point, seeing their panic, Zhang Rui said leisurely again, "Okay, Mrs. Peng always likes to eat chestnut cakes and muffin cakes, so hurry up and prepare them. You also know these two dishes The technique of dim sum is complicated, if there is any mistake in the taste, be careful, I will take your dog's life."

A kind of eunuch stared at each other in the same place, no one left, Zhang Rui took back the steps he had taken, his eyes froze, and he turned around and roared - don't hurry up.

The little eunuchs all dispersed.
