I was a little astonished. "What do you mean, certain death?"
She pulled me to her side and ran into the forest to the right of the palace wall. "Take off your clothes," she said.
I was a bit confused, she said, reaching over to tug at my clothes. "You're a disaster. Do you know why I waited for you to come back? Everyone in the palace is searching for a palace maid called Yun Zhiqiu. "
He poked my forehead with his finger: "Zhi Qiu, who did you offend? Luckily it was a secret order. The one secretly investigating was a palace maid. Quickly throw away your clothes and run."
Pulling me along and running made me a little confused. Who wants to investigate me?
A palace maid? Yun Zhiqiu, could it be that domineering and overbearing young master? If his power was truly that great, then let's properly investigate. Let's see if you can find that palace maid, Yun Zhiqiu.
I am not the least bit outstanding among the ladies, and I have said before that there are tens of thousands of maids in the birdcage, and that the young master should see if his efforts have been in vain.
And he also felt it was funny. Why was he looking for me? He didn't find it boring at all.
Just because of a single scram, he used his connections to look for me? Heh, I wash my face and look at myself in the mirror.
The blue handkerchief lay to one side, flapping in the wind like a gentle face.
I thought if I saw him again, I'd give him back the handkerchief.
Lu Yao still didn't have the slightest aura of a noble lady. He was pawing his way through the books in the palace, but not a single word was written on one page.
We were all waiting, waiting for a month to pass, and then we could leave the palace.
Until now, no one had broken the rules and no one wanted to be the first one. My mother ran after me through the fields, and after a while she learned how to walk, and she grew up. The days are so sad now. I really want to leave the palace in the blink of an eye, and the day of the Emperor's talent show selection will surely come when I will be left without a choice.
He thought that the days passed in such a specific way, in such a specific realm and in such a particular fingertip.
That thing also quietly happened as time passed. There wasn't even the slightest bit of wind blowing.
This morning, Lu Yao didn't like lying in bed like he usually did.
"Zhiqiu, let's go out of the palace together today. Do you know what month it is?"
"The ninth day of the ninth month." I know, this is the Double Sun Festival.
"Yeah, yeah, let's go out and play. Today's the Double Sun Festival, and it's the most fun place in the Ten Mile Lake, that's the most favorite place of all the talented people. We can have one or two flower ladies play the zither and arouse the wine, and enjoy ourselves by swimming in the lake and gathering the lotuses."
"It's not appropriate for the two of us to go, right?" I also know that they are the young masters of rich families, along with some of the self-proclaimed great scholars. Where are they discussing about poetry and painting?
"Go on, go on, I'll tell you, someone I like." Her face blushed a little, but her eyes shone brightly: "I would actually like to see if he is truly clean and honest. Moreover, those people are too arrogant and know that your zither arts are enough to make them feel inferior. I think you and the person I like will be able to have a good chat. He is also quite knowledgeable about the zither. "
She didn't care if I wanted to or not, she just took me out after she was done.
Big Thorny passed through the front yard, and the ladies and the girls who were practicing etiquette and dancing looked straight at us.
I sighed. When I came back, I had broken the rules and could drive out of the palace. That's fine too, the palace isn't my favorite place to stay.
Just what kind of person did Lu Yao, a straightforward woman, like? I'm also curious.
"Luyao, are you sure he'll go?"
"Yes, because someone will go, so he will."
"Luyao, it's really rude for a woman to meet a man like that." Lu Yao's current identity was still that of an elegant lady.
If she didn't want the rest of the family to blame her, she'd better wait a month. The emperor would let her go.
Lu Yao laughed. "It's not like he knew I liked him."
I was a little surprised. I didn't expect that Lu Yao, who wasn't afraid of the heavens or the earth, wouldn't actually tell him.
She looked at me in surprise, smiled and patted me on the shoulder: "Let's go, you will know in the future. Today, you will properly do my job. You made me show off by comparing all those men." He leaned his head against my shoulder and said softly, "Zhiqiu, can you please give me more happiness?"
That voice was a bit weak, so much so that no one could refuse it.
