Spring dyed pear blossoms

Just after noon, a luxurious carriage slowly passed through the streets and headed straight for the palace.

When they stopped at the gate of the palace, a person got out of the carriage, dressed in dark red brocade, extremely luxurious.He has gray hair, a slightly fat body, and a long beard on his mouth. He is about sixty years old.The pace was slow, but those eyes were still piercing.

The guards at the gate of the palace saluted one after another, but this man ignored him and went straight to Zhongxiu Palace.

Today is the beginning of the month, and General Chu is going to visit his daughter in the palace, and Zhongxiu Palace has already started making arrangements.The Imperial Dining Room also prepared pastries and this year's new tea.

Not long after Jin Xi arrived in Zhongxiu Palace, she needed to be reminded of everything, so she followed Danping all the time, learning how to serve others.It happened to be the beginning of the month, and the person she wanted to see came soon.

Outside Zhongxiu Palace, stood the dark red brocade man who had hurried into the palace before.This person is the Queen's father, General Chu Xichu.

He waited for the eunuch to go in and communicate before he set foot in the courtyard.A group of eunuchs and maidservants kowtowed and saluted one after another.Danping also hurriedly knelt down in front of the man, smiled and saluted, "Master, you are here. The empress has been waiting for a long time, master, please come inside!"

The man raised his hand, pulled Danping up, and touched that hand.Danping's age is not too young among court ladies, but she has just turned twenty.It is the time of youth when the skin is like pearls.

Danping's appearance is naturally charming, and every time this General Chu enters the palace and takes advantage of her, she never shy away from it.So this General Chu liked Danping more and more, and even became more unscrupulous when he encountered no one.

Danping knew that General Chu was greedy for beauty, and he already had seven concubines in his family.Although she is a person beside the queen, she is still a slave after all.People go to high places and water flows to low places, so she naturally wants to be the master for a while.

Seeing Danping standing up with General Chu's hand, Jin Xi who followed behind dared to stand up.

General Chu looked sideways, a smile slowly appeared on his face, his eyes swept over her hands, and he reached out to stroke his beard.But the smile was only for a moment, and in a flash he seemed to remember something, and the smile was hidden.Looking at his face again, there was a bit more regretful expression.

He passed in front of Jin Xi, gave her a reluctant look, and then entered the door of the nave.

The queen sat on the long couch and motioned for everyone to step back.

Danping glanced at her, "Your Majesty wants to have some personal words with General Chu, you don't need to serve me here, you all step back!" After finishing speaking, she closed the door.

Jin Xi saw that General Chu was not a good person, and it was not easy to find some clues from him.However, the days to come are long, and she will always have a chance to get close to this person.

There was no outsider in the room, Danping poured tea for the Queen and General Chu, General Chu's eyes fell on Danping at this moment, and he glanced at him several times with impunity.

The queen knew a long time ago that her father, except for those few years on the battlefield, was considered restrained.Now that he doesn't have to go to the front line to fight, all the greed in his temperament is exposed again.

Fortunately, her mother died early and did not see her father's romantic appearance.

Now, her father actually turned his target to those around him.Even though she pretended to ignore it, she couldn't help coughing coldly.

General Chu averted his eyes in embarrassment and smiled embarrassingly.

"Father usually comes here in the evening. It's too early to enter the palace today, but is there something wrong?" the queen asked.

"Just now I saw that girl outside the door is the top of this year's Hundred Flowers List?"

The Queen's lips were tightly closed, and she nodded leisurely.

General Chu's gaze sank, "I can't keep this girl!"

"The daughter doesn't understand what the father said."

General Chu's face darkened, and he said in a low voice, "She must die!"

In fact, when Jin Xi performed the dance, he fell in love with this woman.However, he couldn't touch this woman, and now he couldn't keep it.The man had already given the order, so he had to do it.

"Originally, she stayed at the file, and I didn't need to do this matter. But you just transferred her to Zhongxiu Palace. Now this matter just happened to fall on my head, and I am also very upset." Difficult."

Seeing her father's bitter look, the queen smiled secretly.It's definitely not because of her that her father can be what he is today.She doesn't know who is behind this support.But for so many years, her father has obeyed that person's orders, so it's not like she hasn't thought about the identity of this person.

There are a few people who doubt it, but they just can't confirm it.

Now, Jin Xi is in her palace, and if she wants to kill someone, she is the one who does it.She didn't want to steal her place before she could take advantage of Jinxi.At the moment, I was a bit embarrassed, "It's not difficult to kill a court lady. But she just came to Zhongxiu Palace, and she died like this. My daughter is worried that people will criticize her."

"Does the lady want to watch my father die?" General Chu growled in a low voice.

"Why? With father's current status, what are you afraid of?"

General Chu wanted to speak, but when Danping was here, he swallowed deeply.

The queen saw his scruples and waved her hand, "Danping, you also go out and wait."

Danping responded and went out as she said.

"What does father say, even Danping is so defensive?"

General Chu lowered his voice, "This matter is not in the light of day, and I don't want more people to know about it. For so many years, I have done my best for that person because I have left something in the hands of others. If you don't do what he said , because my father died a long time ago.”

The queen looked ugly, and asked, "What is the reason, so serious?"

General Chu’s eyes dodged, and he didn’t dare to look at his daughter. After struggling for a while, he raised his head and said in a low voice, “Yes, it’s a deal with the Northern Jiang people. The northern land is short of supplies, and Da Zhou is an enemy country to me, so show up In fact, there is no trade relationship between the two countries.

But King Beijiang paid a sky-high price and risked his life to deliver food and grass for their father.In recent years, Bei Jiang has the ability to continue to harass and invade the border of Da Zhou, thanks to my assistance. "

The queen's face froze when she heard this, "Father, this is a death penalty for collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country."

"I know, so this matter must not be let others know. If you know, you will be murdered all over the house, and you, the queen, will not be able to sit still. One wrong step, one wrong step, until now, I can only let it go. If you If you didn't make that deal with the king of Beijiang, you don't have to be controlled by others now."

The queen's body softened, and she sat on the couch, propping her forehead with one hand, "Who is threatening father? Can't we find someone to get rid of it?"

General Chu looked at his daughter and shook his head, "It's that simple, how could you wait until today as a father. I can't reveal the identity of that person. The less you know, the better, otherwise you won't be able to get rid of it."

The queen was annoyed, since she, Chu Yujin, hadn't had a single day of comfort since she married the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.The emperor never cared about her. In the eyes of outsiders, they were a husband and wife who respected each other as guests, and they were the empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty.But in fact, throughout the year, the number of times the emperor can come to Zhongxiu Palace can be counted on the fingers.

And now, her position as queen is also in the hands of others.

She is not reconciled, she is not reconciled to her life being like this, she is not reconciled to live by the face of others.She was even more unwilling to lose to a lowly embryo in a brothel.

Her father is useless except for being greedy for money and lust. If something happens to her, she can't count on it.After being controlled by others for so many years, she still has to be involved.She glanced at her father, her heart sank, and she had secretly made a decision.

She said calmly, "The eunuch of Zhongxiu Palace has a father. Father can do it whenever he wants, and there is only one maid on his left. After killing him, just throw it in the outer suburbs of the palace."

When General Chu heard this, he nodded again and again, "This matter must be done as soon as possible, and the urging over there is urgent."

The queen took a sip of tea, picked up the pastry on the table, and handed it to General Chu, "Okay, let's do it tonight as my father wishes."

As soon as the night fell, Danping asked Jinxi to go to the storehouse to get some charcoal fire for winter.But now that autumn has just entered and the weather is not cold, it doesn't make sense to prepare charcoal fire so early.

Jin Xi was puzzled, and became wary.

The way out of the courtyard gate to the storeroom in the palace is the most remote place in the palace, except for the palace lanterns being lit at night, there is no one guarding it.And the treasury has only two eunuchs guarding it at night. If the palaces have needs, most of them come here during the day to get what they need.

When no one came, as soon as it was dark, the guarding eunuchs could be lazy and take a nap.

Jin Xi walked all the way, and after passing through the imperial garden, he entered the path, and he really couldn't see any guards.

She was alert in her heart, and looked around from the corner of her eye.From the time he walked through the imperial garden, there was someone following him not far or near, with light footsteps.She didn't dare to look back, and quietly touched her waist with her hand.There are several hidden weapons hidden there, which are not easy to be noticed.After entering Zhongxiu Palace, Meng Qiucheng secretly gave it to her.

There was something wrong with the way Chu Xi looked at her today, and afterwards Danping was not as harsh to her as when she first came here.All kinds of abnormalities made her more uneasy, until at night, Danping asked her to go to the warehouse to collect charcoal fire.

She knew that tonight must be unusual.

Further forward is a rockery, if someone is really against her, this place is a good time to strike.

Jin Xi slowed down and approached the rockery little by little.

Suddenly, a long sword stretched out from the rockery cave, and struck at her chest.Under the moon, the sword was cold.Just as she narrowly escaped, the people who had been following her suddenly stepped forward.

It's just that this person didn't come to kill her, but instead fought with the person who assassinated him.

Jin Xi glanced at the person who had been following her, her eyes narrowed slightly, and then took the opportunity to go around behind the rockery and into a bamboo forest.There are mostly short trees and shrubs in the forest, half squatting, but no one can see it.

Further back is the wall in the palace, and outside the wall is the moat.The river was so fast that it was impossible for ordinary people to sneak into the palace from the other side of the river.The most important thing in the palace is the safety of the emperor and the palace masters, so most of the guards in the palace are guarding the emperor, and the gates of each palace are guarded by the city defense army day and night.

Now that there is no one, Jin Xi is startled, if she dies here, no one will pass by here, maybe no one will be able to find her.Listening to the sound of rushing water, the sound of fighting on the rockery was covered up.She didn't dare to stay here any longer, but she was a maid of Zhongxiu Palace, she had nowhere to go except to go back to Zhongxiu Palace.

Just when she was at a loss, a wet black shadow suddenly overwhelmed her.She subconsciously touched the hidden weapon in her waist, but was quickly stopped by someone.

Before she could think about it, she kicked it out, and someone rolled aside.Taking advantage of the gap, she got up and wanted to run.Naihe's follower was extremely quick and grabbed her arm.

Jin Xi doesn't want to get entangled with the visitor, but right now he can only fight.
