Chapter Thirteen: Misunderstanding

On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, Chinese Valentine's Day, Doll's Day, it was one day after the first watch.

Qiaoxin prepared hot water for You Fengyi and prepared to wait for the master to rest early. Unexpectedly, You Tingjiao started dressing up in the mirror.

"Master, are you going out?" There are many rules in the palace, and you are not allowed to walk around at will at night.

You Tingjiao signaled her to shush, "Don't make any noise. I've taken care of the eunuchs in Yiqiu Palace. Success or failure depends on this."

Qiao Xin was so frightened that her hands were shaking as she helped You Tingjiao dress, "Master, if Dong Baolin finds out, he will definitely be severely punished..."

Dong Yao is the legitimate daughter of Yunhui General Dong Zhen. She was the imperial concubine when she entered the palace and was soon promoted to Baolin. It was she who lived in the main hall of Yiqiu Palace.

When You Tingjiao heard the words "Dong Baolin", her expression became more determined. As soon as she entered the palace, she aroused people's jealousy because of the golden hairpin awarded by His Majesty, and was slapped in court by Dong Baolin for not meeting him in time.

.

Because she had the lowest status, even though she had only been in the palace for a short period of time, she suffered a lot of anger in the palace. She risked her life today and must find a way to be favored.

You Tingjiao put on the crocus dress she wore on the day of the draft, and her headdress matched You Tingrong's dress. Only after receiving the news from Third Yiniang did she realize that now that she had entered the palace, as long as she planned things properly,

She can step on You Tingrong and be pampered.

Qiao Xin looked at You Tingjiao's completely different attire and praised unconsciously, "Master is so beautiful..."

Before he finished speaking, he was frightened by You Tingjiao's cannibalistic gaze and did not dare to say any more.

In order to inquire about the emperor's movements, she squandered all the money she brought into the palace. This time, in order to disguise the truth from the truth, she half-hidden it with a veil, hoping to win favor in one fell swoop.

You Tingjiao held her pipa alone, put on her cloak, and headed towards Taiye Pond at night.

Taiye Pool is located on the central axis of the Forbidden City, not far from the emperor's palace, Qianqing Palace. In the center of the pool is the Linde Hall where banquets and dances are held. From a distance, the smoke is like a fairyland fairyland. At night, Taiye Pool is as vast as

The sea reflects the bright moon in the sky.

Shan Yunxin declined the dinner at Fengyi Palace, drank a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and walked around the Taiye Pond to enjoy the scenery.

Chang Shun and others only dared to follow from afar. His Majesty has never been favored by the harem since the draft. He always thinks alone until late at night.

Soon, something else blew in the silent wind.

Mixed with the sound of running water and the crisp sound of pipa, Chang Shun listened attentively, it was "Wild Geese Falling on the Flat Sand".

Shan Yunxin's expression was gloomy and hard to distinguish, and the hand holding the silver pot almost pinched the wall of the pot. He was too familiar with this piece of music.

You Tingrong is good at pipa, but he is also a little old-fashioned person who talks about being polite and has a very thin skin.

After entering the palace, concubines from aristocratic families always accused her of not knowing poetry and only knowing music and dance that were not popular on the stage. Especially after she sat in a high position, she didn't like to play the pipa much, for fear of losing her status.

But in my dream, I loved listening to her pipa, especially when Concubine Shu played the pipa drunkenly.

Love it so much.

The beauty's cheeks are as red as a begonia, with a lazy aura, and she is leaning on the red paint armchair as if she is boneless. In the splendid palace, her clothes are loose, her black hair is gathered on the side of her neck, and her eyes are looking over casually, as if she can

Drown people to death.

Those soft, boneless little hands gently lifted together, and the improvised string music softened Shan Yunxin's ears and intoxicated his heart.

Shan Yunxin laughed to herself, pressed her slightly tipsy temples, and realized that it was all a dream.

Chang Shun was in a state of confusion. What does Your Majesty mean by this? Should he drive this person away or not?

Before he could think it through, Shan Yunxin walked forward calmly, and what caught his eye was a familiar figure.

Shan Yunxin raised his head and drank the entire pot of wine. The jug was violently thrown on the stone. There was no sincerity in the string music that hit his ears, only dirty desires and clumsy and dirty imitations.

Chang Shun heard the sound of the string and knew its elegant meaning. He waved his hand and said, "The emperor is here, why don't you take this person away quickly!"

The eunuchs swarmed up, and when You Tingjiao's delicate cheek was pressed into the mud, fear instantly overwhelmed her, and she struggled with all her strength, "Let me go! Let me go!"

Black boots appeared in front of You Tingjiao, and Shan Yunxin raised her face with his feet, "You are so brave to spy on the saint and leave the palace without permission."

"How dare you wear these clothes and try to fool around with others?"

After Shan Yunxin finished speaking, the nanny stripped off You Tingjiao's clothes with great discernment. In front of so many slaves, she did not care about her identity as a concubine.

You Tingjiao's beautiful face turned pale as she cried, and her whole body trembled, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong! Your Majesty, please spare me! I don't dare to do it anymore..."

"Come here, throw this person into the cold palace." Shan Yunxin was very calm and didn't care at all about her pleas.

You Tingjiao struggled even more frantically, but was suppressed to death. The last trace of reason collapsed and she screamed at the top of her lungs: "Your Majesty, it was the eldest sister who taught me this! Not me! It was the eldest sister who offended Long Wei!"

Shan Yunxin's expression suddenly changed, and his gloomy eyes glared at You Tingjiao, "What did you say?"

When You Tingjiao saw the emperor's attitude, the hatred in her heart deepened. Even if she died, she would drag You Tingrong to hell with her.

"Yes, it's because my aunt helped the eldest sister to marry me, and the eldest sister told my concubine's aunt that Your Majesty likes this song "Wild Geese Falling on the Flat Sand"... It was all taught by my eldest sister to my concubine. Your Majesty knows this!" You Tingjiao's voice was sad and shrill,

In desperation, he completely forgot about his aunt's instructions, "I am innocent!"

Shan Yunxin lowered her eyes in silence, her dark eyelashes blocking the dark light deep in her eyes. She turned her back and left, leaving only one sentence for Chang Shun, "Bring him to Qianqing Palace."

Chang Shun did not dare to say anything, so he bowed and said hello to his grandmother, and quickly followed the emperor's back.

You Tingjiao was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Chang Shun couldn't help but curled his lips: Are you still happy? Long live the Chinese Valentine's Day. I pushed the Queen's dinner but kept You Tingjiao. The Queen won't tear you apart tomorrow!

It has a vermilion lacquer gate, a dragon and gold pillars, and a golden nanmu plaque hanging in the middle of the gate. On the plaque is a gold inscription "Qianqing Palace", which is the emperor's inner palace.

The ground paved with white jade shone with thin light. You Tingjiao knelt on the cold ground, with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes, holding the pipa with a broken string, and did not dare to stop playing for a moment.

The snow-white and flexible strings gradually turned red, and every time I made a sound in my hand, I felt heart-wrenching pain.

Among the layers of bed curtains, Shan Yunxin closed his eyes and fiddled with the Buddhist beads, as if he were an evil wolf ambushing in the night, with anger behind his calmness.

Talking about getting married? It's okay to avoid him after meeting him. He can give her time, but she actually wants to marry someone else.

Listening to the familiar tune, Shan Yunxin plucked the beads faster and faster.
