Outside the palace of the Qing Dynasty, Wang Leyi sat in a sedan chair and waited for a long time. No one came to meet her. She reached out and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and went out.
Wu Shuyi, the housekeeper in the palace of the Qing Dynasty, saw that Wang Leyi came to the door with someone in person. He didn't dare to neglect him and immediately welcomed him.
"Housekeeper, is the Lord still busy in his study?"
"If you go back to the girl, since you met the emperor and the concubine, once you go back to the mansion, you will not touch the ground to deal with big and small affairs. You never rest. It's too late. Why don't you come back tomorrow morning?"
Wang Leyi clenched her hands tightly in her sleeve, saluted respectfully on her face and said with a smile: "then please Uncle Wu, bring the snacks made by Leyi to the Lord for a taste, and remind him to have a rest early. After all, in three days, he and I will hold a wedding ceremony. At that time, don't tire the bridegroom and let Leyi become the butt of everyone's jokes."
Speaking of this, Wang Leyi blushed and lowered her head.
"When you get married with the Lord, you will surely have a healthy and powerful Lord. It's not too early. Girl, you'd better go back and have a rest as soon as possible."
Housekeeper Wu bowed and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Uncle Wu." After Wang Leyi finished, the girl beside her sent a basket of snacks to housekeeper Wu.
With a basket in his hand, he waited all the way for Wang Leyi's sedan chair to go away. Then he took a deep breath, carried the basket into the mansion, ordered the guards to close the door, and all the way to the study.
The door of the study is wide open. Lei Ke is at the door. When he sees the housekeeper coming with a basket, he shouts.
"Uncle Wu, are you looking for someone to buy a snack because our master has been busy all day?"
Although Lei Ke wanted to eat, he always kept in mind the duty of master and servant, and his eyes revolved around the dim sum.
"It's a snack sent by the young lady of the Wang family outside the door. She said it was made for the Lord himself."
The housekeeper arched his hand and put the basket on Gong liangche's desk.
"This heart, Lei Ke, you like to eat. Take it." Gong liangche did not lift his eyelids. He put a note on the candle and burned a corner. Then he threw it into the charcoal basin.
"Thank you." Leike happily took the basket and ate it.
The housekeeper was not surprised, and then reported: "the old slave advised the Wang family girl to go back."
"Well, Uncle Wu, you've been busy for half a night. Go back and have a rest early. I'm also tired. I'll go back to my bedroom."
Gong liangche finished, picked up the papers at the desk, waved his robes and left the study.
"Lord, take your time."
With that, the housekeeper turns around and orders someone to put out the candle in his study. He carefully closes the door and watches Lei Ke eat snacks with a basket outside. He sighs and pats him on the back.
"Lei Ke, why are you still eating when the Lord is gone?"
"Is the Lord gone?" Lei Ke looked back and saw that there was no one left. He immediately chased out with his basket.

long street
the night is getting dark, Wang Leyi is sitting in the sedan chair, sulking, holding the whip in her hand tightly, without saying a word. Just as she was stunned, the sedan chair suddenly fell to the ground, and it was quiet outside. The footfalls of the servants stopped, staring at the people in front of her.
Wang Leyi lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and stooped to go out. He saw a man dressed in purple standing one meter away from her, with a smile on his lips and a twinkling light in his eyes. It was hard to see what he wanted to do.
"The eighth prince."
Wang Leyi came up to say hello.
"The prince also plans to take advantage of Lao Shi's abundant time in the evening to ask for a drink in his palace. Unexpectedly, he meets Miss Le Yi. What do you want to do with Lao Shi this evening?"
"You're going to kiss the day after tomorrow, and I can't help it?"
Gong Liangyi walked around Wang Leyi and raised her chin with his index finger. He asked with a smile.
"Back to the eighth prince, Leyi only stood at the gate of the palace and sent out the cakes. Then she came back. She didn't have a private meeting with her cousin."
Wang Leyi stepped back and broke away from the control of Gong Liangyi.
"You don't have to be angry. Miss Leyi must have heard that the old ten took the woman he married when he was in trouble in the countryside into the palace and was put in the prison by her father."
"However, it's said that the tenth younger brother begged in front of his father, which saved the woman's life. However, it's said that he promised to marry Miss Leyi, and then he changed the woman's life. From this point of view, Miss Leyi, are you really willing to marry him?"
"Thank you for your concern. Yue Yi only likes his Royal Highness the king of the Qing Dynasty. Naturally, she wants to have a good relationship with him for a hundred years."
"Cheng, since Miss Leyi is broad-minded, I don't have much to say. It's said that the woman is locked up on the top of the heaven prison. You can take advantage of three days ago to have a close look at her. After all, you should call her sister in the future. Well, it's too late, and I don't want to go to Lao Shi."
Gong Liangyi said, turned and walked out, and his followers immediately followed him and disappeared in Wang Leyi's sight step by step."Girl, he must have come to see your jokes. We don't have to pay any attention to him. After all, the eighth prince had made great efforts to woo you, and wanted to get the military talisman that could mobilize 200000 troops in the hands of the great general Wang behind you."
The confidants close to her ear remind her.
Wang Leyi pondered calmly for a moment, and said: "in three days, my cousin and I will get married. Although I am a distant relative, my father and my wife are not very close at ordinary times, but now, my cousin and I have become husband and wife. My father is the king's biggest backer. No one wants to take him away. He will be my aunt's person naturally."
"The most important thing now is to get married with my cousin. When I get the position of the princess, I will naturally pull out all the obstacles. No matter what the purpose of the eight princes is tonight, I can't get in the way of marrying my cousin."
"Well, you pay attention to the mess around you and protect me to go back."
With that, Wang Leyi entered the sedan chair. Four sedan chair bearers carried her, escorted her out of the long street and went back to the palace.

at night, it's overcast, cold, wet and cold in the Tianlong, and Xiali sits on the dry grass, leaning against the cold wall, shivering with cold.
Just when she was in a daze with cold, she only heard the sound of walking outside the prison. She looked at it and saw it clearly by taking advantage of the fire in the prison. It was gong liangche.
He was holding a thick quilt in his arms, followed by Rushuang. She was holding a food box in her hand, looking at Xiali with a sad face.
Xia Li grinned, "what are you doing standing here? I'm cold and hungry now if you don't bring the quilt and food here as soon as possible."
The guard politely opened the door of the cell with the key and retreated silently.
Rushuang puts the food box in front of Xiali, and keeps it outside, so that no one else can come in and disturb it.
Gong liangche covered her with cotton, surrounded her tightly, and sent the stove to her hand. She didn't feel as purple as before, so she felt better.
"It's warmer. It's not enough. I'll have someone bring a quilt and a hand stove."
Gong liangche feels guilty and is more careful about Xia Li.
"I'm fine. I'm better now."
Summer quinoa voice hoarse, hugged the quilt and hand stove back.
"There are some dishes you like to eat in the food box, as well as some soup. You can drink some to replenish your body."
Gong liangche opened the food box and brought out a few dishes. He glanced at the noisy straw in the cell. He didn't even have a table to eat. He couldn't help frowning.
He personally carried a plate of vegetables, holding chopsticks to her mouth to feed.
"It's better to eat some vegetables and put something in your stomach."
"Why are you so kind to me? After three days, I can't die. As long as I get out of this place, I will be free. Even if I hate you, it's good. How can I forget you when you are so kind to me?"
Xu is in a weak state, and her brain is also in a daze. Her mouth is not as stubborn and angry as when she is awake, and her words are weak and pitiable.
Gong liangche only felt the heat on the back of his hand, but a tear fell on the back of his hand. He looked at Xia Li and saw her wipe a tear with her sleeve.
"Don't wipe your eyes with your prison clothes. You should eat first."
Gongliangche doesn't want to let her immerse in the sad mood and say some words that distract her temporarily. His heart is really like a knife cut. In fact, he knows that there is each other in the hearts of the two people, but why do we need to make it to the present situation to find out each other's mind in this dark cell?
However, they have long lost the reason to stand together. Without the name of husband and wife, how can they keep her?
Xia Li reluctantly ate a small bowl of vegetables and a bowl of soup, but he couldn't eat any more. He sleeps on his shoulder.
Gong liangche fondled her hair lovingly. In just a few days, her cheek was concave and thin, which made him want to take her out and take good care of her.
He moved his body for a while, and seemed to wake her up in her dream. He only heard Xia Li murmur, "don't go. Let me stay a little longer. In two days, you will be someone else's husband."
Just listen to Gong Liang Che's breathing, a long time, leisurely back: "don't worry, I will only be a person of Li Er."
The next day, when Xia Li woke up, she found the quilt on her body, and the hand stove still warm in her hand. Her body was not so cold any more. Fortunately, it was just early autumn. The night was cooler, and a quilt could resist the cold.
So, last night, she leaned against his arms to say those words of weakness, it seems not a dream?
Xia Li's little face flushed with shame, anger and anger. I don't know whether it's her weakness or her anger. Gong liangche took advantage of her confused consciousness and hugged her to say those words. She was still angry with her weakness.In two days, she will be free. It really has nothing to do with her who he marries.
"Freedom is the greatest happiness." Xia Li habitually wants to wipe her tears with her sleeve, but she finds that there is a brown towel in her arms, embroidered with a clear word, needless to say, he left it.
Xia Li was reluctant to wipe her tears with a towel. She folded it carefully and hid it in her arms.
Rushuang hides in a corner of the dark and silently looks at Xiali's little actions. The lady is really stiff. She has gongliangche in her heart, but she just pushes him out. Gongliangche wants to marry another woman, and the emperor gongliangjin and liangfei intervene. Their days can be more and more painful.
