Chapter 63

imperial garden

The royal garden under the night showed a strange mystery. A dark shadow came out of the rockery. The thin moonlight hit his white face, and his smiling eyes had never been warm.

Tang yuntu went out of the rockery forest and sat down around a round stone table. His black and white eyes fell into the dark night. Jun Mei frowned slightly. In the distance, except for the swaying palace lanterns, there was only the shadow of dead trees shaking in the wind, and even half a person could not be seen.

Why hasn't she come yet!

Tang yuntu stood up and walked back and forth. There was an unhappy color on his white face. He walked upset for a long time, but no one came. He sat in front of the round table again, and his slender fingertips knocked on the stone table.

The sky suddenly exploded a rolling thunder, the moon was covered by dark clouds, a silver lightning split half of the sky, and the majestic heavy rain fell without warning.

It's not coming!

The place where Tang yuntu is located can't keep out the rain. He looked around. There are some small flowers and trees. There's really nowhere to hide from the rain except the fake mountain forest.

Does she really want to see him?

Looking at the rain all over the sky, he suddenly rushed out, with a sad smile, raised his head and let the rain beat his handsome face. The tears under his eyes filled his eyes, and his red eyes looked straight at the lightning splitting again in the sky.

He remembered the same rainy night and lightning that year. He met her trapped in the wild mountains. She was very vigilant. As soon as he approached, he would retreat and refuse his help. He accompanied her and told her stories and interesting folk stories. She completely put down her guard and accepted his help in two or three days.

Tang yuntu still remembers her helpless and wandering eyes mixed with vigilant eyes, which captured his heart as a killer, that is, he moved his heart at that time.

The rain washed his face, and the slightest chill invaded his bone marrow. He shivered and wiped away the water on his face, whether it was rain or tears, with a bitter smile on his mouth.

In those years, if he took her away, would he be able to have a good time with her? He thought about it. He thought about taking her away, but he couldn't be so selfish.

In those days, he had nothing but blood, not even a mud house to settle down. He is the killer licking blood at the tip of the knife, and she is Leng's legitimate daughter. How can she eat such bitterness!

Now he has come back. He has his own industry and ability, but she has become someone else's wife.

Tears poured down his face. He stretched out his hand to wipe it dry again. His body could not support it. He knelt in the rain curtain, staring at his scarlet eyes.

"Sir, you..." Xiaotao happened to see Tang yuntu nestled by the rockery after passing the imperial garden.

Tang yuntu's three grade imperial clothes were wet by the rain last night. His official hat bent and twisted at his feet. There were several fallen leaves on his face. The corners of his mouth were dark and seemed to be stained with something. In short, the whole looked embarrassed.

Tang yuntu slowly stood up from the ground. He didn't have yesterday's smile on his face, but he was still handsome in Xiaotao's eyes. Xiaotao's face was red and bleeding. She cared: "adult, it's bad to drink too much."

Xiaotao thought Tang yuntu was drunk and would lie here to sleep.

Tang yuntu slightly raised his eyes and looked at the palace girl. The appearance of the little palace girl was pleasant. There was a grain of rice hanging from the corner of his mouth. He really cared about him.

Tang yuntu's mouth was curled. Only he knew that he didn't drink last night. He was more sober than ever. He had been waiting for the woman.

She never showed up! Didn't you get the letter?

Tang yuntu suddenly grabbed Xiaotao's shoulder, stared round and asked her, "did you give her the letter?" why didn't she come?

Xiaotao looked at the handsome face only a foot away from her. Her eyes flickered. She bowed her head and said, "I gave the letter to my mother."

Give it to her!

Tang yuntu slowly let go of Xiaotao and turned around to leave.

"My Lord!" Xiaotao hurriedly shouted to him.

Tang yuntu looked back, "what's up, girl?"

"Maidservant... Maidservant... Will you see adults in the future?" Xiaotao asked.

Tang yuntu slowly lifted up the corners of his mouth, barely smiled at her and said, "the palace is very busy!" then he turned and left.

Xiaotao silently looks at the figure of Tang yuntu walking away. Is she too greedy! Adults seem to hate her!

Qingyan Palace

Leng Qingyan watched three or five slaves dress the emperor in court clothes, watched the emperor get on luanjia, and watched luanjia go away.

She remembered what the emperor had just said. The emperor said that the Shangshu of the Ministry of military had long been determined. Leng Qingyan hooked his mouth and lost.

What kind of ecstasy did Princess Wu give the emperor? Why would he allow her as soon as she spoke.

"Empress, I saw the man just passing by the imperial garden!" said Xiao Tao while dressing Leng Qingyan.

"He..." Leng Qingyan was about to ask if he was waiting for her there. Suddenly, he realized that he almost slipped his tongue and changed his way: "what's he doing there?" didn't he go back last night.

"I don't know. I look very embarrassed. Maybe I was drunk last night!" Xiaotao picked a hairpin and wrapped her hair.

"Xiaotao, you seem to be very interested in his affairs!" Leng Qingyan raised his eyes and joked, quickly covering up his emotions.

"Niang Niang......" Xiaotao bowed his head shyly.

"I'm going to see the queen in Yikun Palace today. This gold hairpin is not good." Leng Qingyan took down the phoenix gold hairpin carved on his temples, took a ring cloud hairpin, inserted it, and ordered bamboo branches to choose plain palace clothes. Then he took Xiaotao out of Qingyan palace.

Xiaotao was worried all the way. She woke up in front of Yikun palace, picked up her spirit and followed the palace maid who led the way to the warm pavilion where the queen was located.

In the middle of the warm Pavilion, there is a red sandalwood side seat inlaid with jade and flower throne screen. On both sides, there is a sapphire and purple bamboo palace lamp, a curtain embroidered with Phoenix and Phoenix on the edge of gold thread, two pot seats, and four hollow bronze pagodas inlaid with ruby are decorated in the four corners of the warm Pavilion.

Behind the red Uygur tent sat a woman with luxurious clothes. She was wearing a phoenix robe with gold wire hook and silver thread. There were six Phoenix hairpins and three strings of white jade beads on her temples. With the emerald and sandalwood Buddha beads in her hand, she was full of wealth.

Leng Qingyan, with a decent smile, gave a gift to the woman and said, "how are you, sister."

The queen pinched the Buddha beads in her hand, glanced at her cold face, pulled the corners of her mouth and said, "sister, how do you think of this palace?"

Leng Qingyan hasn't been to Yikun palace for more than half a month. She hasn't come to greet her on weekdays. She must have asked for her to come here suddenly.

If the queen guesses right, she must come for the position of the Minister of war.

Hum!
