The day after the fifth master celebrated his birthday, the eldest lady returned to the old lady and took Yuxin into the palace. This time, Empress Dowager Cixiao's condition improved slightly, but she was still lingering in bed and couldn't get out of bed. The eldest lady always had to go to the palace every once in a while.

When I go to the palace, eight out of ten times I bring Yuxin with me.

At the beginning, Yuxin was very interested in entering the palace and meeting the old queen. After all, the imperial power was supreme in that era, and it was a very honorable thing to enter the palace. But as time went by, Yuxin felt that the palace was cautious.

If it is too restrictive, there will be some resistance.

After entering the Cining Palace, the Queen Mother and the eldest wife's aunt and nephew naturally had a lot of private things to talk about. Yuxin sat aside and listened for a while, feeling bored to death and unable to sit still.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother couldn't help but secretly sigh in her heart: Miss Eight is still too hot-tempered. She is also straightforward and fierce, so she is really not a good candidate for the Crown Princess. It's a pity that she has no other choice now...

The Queen Mother smiled kindly and told the maid on the side: "Cai'e, take the eighth girl for a walk in the garden at the back. She is bored just listening to me, an old woman, talking here."

Yuxin was overjoyed when she heard this, and quickly stood up and thanked her: "Thank you, Queen Mother!" The smile on her face was a bit unbearable. Seeing that she was so uncontrollable, the eldest lady glared at her, and Yuxin could only

She pretended not to see her. The eldest lady was worried and sent Mother Wu to follow her. Then she let Yuxin go out with Cai'e.

As soon as Yuxin went out, the eldest lady quickly smoothed things over for her daughter: "Xin'er is ignorant, don't blame the Queen Mother..."

The Queen Mother waved her hands and sighed: "You should also spend more time on your children. Even if she cannot marry into the Tian family in the future, she will still be the mistress of the house. How can she be so impetuous?"

The eldest lady blushed and replied in a low voice, yes, she was indeed a little too arrogant towards Yuxin. The queen mother changed her tone and asked, "Your parents-in-law still haven't let go?"

The eldest lady said with a sad face: "I have tried every means, but as you know the temper of my father-in-law and mother-in-law, there is no way I can change their minds."

The Queen Mother shook her head: "It seems we have to think of other ways!"

There is a garden behind Cining Palace, called Cining Garden. It was specially built by the current orthodox emperor in order to honor the old queen mother. It was repaired not long ago. Cai'e took Yuxin to stroll in the garden.

It was midsummer, the flowers and trees were sparse, the grass was lush, and the layout of every plant and tree in the royal garden was exquisite. Yuxin left the depressing house in Xinuang Pavilion, like a bird out of its cage, and was very happy for a moment.

Cai'e knew that she was the great-niece whom the Queen Mother valued very much, so she tried to please her every step of the way, giving instructions and explaining the scenery of the garden along the way. Even Wu's mother followed Zhanguang and visited the royal garden.

Yuxin was enjoying her stroll when unexpectedly, a giant black dog appeared from behind a tree. Yuxin and others were surprised when they saw it. The giant dog had a mane around its neck and was very tall, almost as tall as

A lion. Its claws and teeth are sharp and its eyes are fierce, as if it wants to choose people to devour.

Yu Xin looked at it, and a chill ran down her spine. At this time, a voice could be heard faintly in the distance: "Your Majesty, look, where is your gray dog!" "Hurry and catch it. Don't call it this time."

Run away again!” “The Cang Yang Dog is too ferocious, it’s not good to hurt someone!” “Oh no, there’s someone there!”

Maybe it was stimulated, "Ouch!" The green yelping dog roared and rushed forward suddenly. Yuxin was the first to bear the brunt. Her courage was not small among the many official ladies, but after all, she had been pampered since she was a child and had no experience.

After experiencing such a terrifying scene, I forgot to dodge for a moment.

"Quickly get out of the way!" A sword scabbard inlaid with gold and jade flew across and hit the giant dog's head hard. There was a cry. The person who took action was obviously very strong and actually shot the canine dog to the ground in the air.

.Only half a step away from Yuxin, a big hand stretched out and roughly pulled Yuxin behind her.

In a hurry, Yu Xin felt that this man was wearing a gauze robe that was very luxurious. It was the first time for her to have such close contact with a strange man at such a big age. The women in the back house always put on makeup and powder, and there was always a smell of powder on their bodies. Yu Xin

At this time, Xin was almost pressed against the man's back, feeling that his body exuded an indescribable smell, but it smelled very good and made people's hearts beat.

While Yu Xin was thinking about something, the canine dog on the ground had already turned over and jumped up. The man laughed loudly: "The beast is still waiting to be restrained!" He was holding a bright long sword in his hand, but he didn't seem to want to hurt him with the sword.

Cang Yang Quan casually handed the sword to Yu Xin who was in a daze behind him.

She rushed forward with her bare hands. Yu Xin was startled and shouted quickly: "Be careful!" The man was very good at martial arts. Although the dog was ferocious, it was unable to hurt him for a moment, but he kicked him in the head several times.

, the kick made the dog dizzy for a while.

In the blink of an eye, a group of guards and eunuchs followed in a chaotic manner, and someone threw a rope to tie up the canine. The last eunuch seemed to be the leader, panting, and asked anxiously: "My lord, are you okay?"

"

The man murmured softly: "It's just a beast, what can happen to me?" The eunuch looked him up and down carefully, and when he saw that his whole body was intact, he finally breathed out: "Blessed by Bodhisattva,

Your Majesty, please don’t do this again in the future. The son of a rich man cannot sit down in the palace, and you are a noble person, why should you take risks yourself? If you have something to say, there will be slaves to handle it for you. If you are missing this time

With just one strand of hair, the imperial concubine will have to chop the slaves alive!"

The man waved his hands impatiently: "Stop nagging me, the king, and hurry up and ask someone to send my blue eagle back. If it runs away again this time, I won't need my mother to do anything, I will cut you alive first!" Those followers!

He quickly agreed, and several people came up to move the huge gray dog ​​away.

The man was in his prime of life, and the thrilling hero's rescue of the beauty just now also had an element of showing off his majesty. Finally, he handled the unexpected situation without any accident, and then he remembered Yu Xin from the noisy environment.

The man turned around and looked at Yuxin coldly and arrogantly, looking very rude.

If Yu Xin's temper is pleasing to her, that's all good. If she gets annoyed and steps into the mud, she will have to stomp her feet again. The man just saved her life, and he has broad shoulders and a thin waist.

He was very heroic, and now she was looking more and more pleasing to the eye. No matter how rude he was, she stared at the man and exclaimed: "Are you... King Zhao?" This man was actually Marquis Jinghai.

Ye Minyu, the Prince of Zhao, whom she had met once during his birthday celebration. Yuxin felt relieved immediately after thinking about it. The inner palace was strictly forbidden. Except for the Crown Prince, Prince Zhao, and Prince Lu, who could walk freely in the palace?

King Zhao was also looking at the girl in front of him. Although Yuxin was not very old, she was already very beautiful. She was wearing a brocade dress in the color of bamboo with gold all over, an eight-piece skirt with flowers in hundreds of butterflies, and an ice blue dress on her body.

Se Shayi, maybe because she was frightened, her face was flushed, her slightly pursed lips revealed a hint of stubbornness, and when she spoke or laughed, a shallow pear dimple would appear on her right cheek. King Zhao was slightly startled.

, where have I seen this girl?

He frowned slightly and asked, "How do you know me?"

Yuxin bent down and picked up the scabbard on the ground, put the sword back into the scabbard and handed it back to Ye Minyu: "Here, here you go! I know you are King Zhao, I saw you in Jinghaihou Mansion!" Ye Minyu took the sword.

, hanging it casually on the waist, seeing that Yuxin could still remain calm after that fright, unlike the maid and nun beside her, whose legs were still trembling, I couldn't help but have a good feeling.

Yu Xin's tone and demeanor made him frown again. He had never seen such a proud girl. She knew that he was the beloved son of the current emperor, but she didn't even salute him. The eunuch leader next to him had already shouted: "How bold! Where did you come from?"

Such a wild girl, so rude, why don’t you bow quickly when you see His Highness King Zhao!”

Ye Minyu stretched out her hand to stop the angry eunuch and asked with a hint of curiosity: "Since you know that I am King Zhao, why don't you salute me?"

Yuxin pouted her little mouth and snorted: "Your dog almost bit me, and I didn't even ask you to apologize to me. Why should I salute you?" Mother Wu was so frightened just now.

Now my calves were still trembling. When I saw the eighth girl actually getting into a fight with the fourth prince, cold sweat broke out on my head again. I stretched out my hand to pull her sleeve: "Girl..." Don't worry, the prince is a prince.

, just take it easy.

Yuxin was so ambitious that she ignored her at all.

Ye Minyu has never seen such a unruly and willful girl in her whole life, because the current emperor is as lustful as life, and Concubine Xiao Huang hates it deeply, and is extremely guarded against the women around her son. Ye Minyu is no different from the current emperor in terms of lustfulness.

It's different. He has never been hypocritical with women. He feels that all the women in the palace are so delicate and timid that a gust of wind can blow them to the ground. They are very useless. Although he is sixteen years old now, he has never been tainted by women.

If Yuxin was like an ordinary woman who was submissive to him when she saw him, he would definitely turn around and leave without paying any attention to her. However, Yuxin put on a proud and unruly look, and King Zhao actually became interested in her. "How dare you talk to me like this?"

Yes, you are the first one! She looks familiar, what is your name, and which family do you belong to?" This person didn't care and asked for the girl's maiden name.

Unexpectedly, Yuxin replied happily: "My name is Yang Yuxin, and my grandfather Yang Peishi."

Ye Minyu joked: "It turns out she is Yuan Fu's granddaughter." No wonder she is so arrogant.

But Yu Xin heard the underlying meaning of his words. She couldn't help but said angrily: "When have we, the Yang family's heirs of poetry and calligraphy, ever done anything like bullying others?"

Ye Minyu thought for a while and said: "I also admire Yang Yuanfu. My Cang Yang dog almost hurt you, but it is impossible for me to apologize to you. If you don't salute me, we can be considered even. In this case,

I’ll take my leave now that I have something else to do.”

Seeing that he was leaving, Yuxin quickly shouted: "Wait!"

Ye Minyu said: "Miss Yang, what else can I teach you?"

Yuxin asked: "What are you going to do with that canine dog? I was lucky this time and didn't hurt me. If it ran out again, I'm afraid there would be no such luck. If it collided with some noble person, I'm afraid that King Zhao would

Your Highness can’t bear it, right?”

Ye Minyu raised her eyebrows and said, "What, according to the girl's wishes, what should I do?"

Yuxin made a chopping gesture and said, "Of course I have to kill it to avoid future troubles!"

"Hahaha!" Ye Minyu burst into laughter. "It just scared the girl. Why should the girl be so vindictive and insist on killing it? This gray dog ​​came from Wu Si Zang as tribute thousands of miles away. It is very precious.

, I begged my father many times to get it here, how could I just kill it when I said it?" Ye Minyu paused, and said proudly: "Don't say it's a beast that can't escape from my hands no matter what, even if

If it really escapes, I will take care of any noble person it hurts, so I don’t have to worry about it. Say goodbye!" Without further words, this time he really went far away. Yu Xin saw through his trick and hated him.

I stomped my feet. Looking at his energetic back, I felt a little disappointed for a moment.

Yuxin followed Cai'e and Mother Wu back to Cining Palace. The Queen Mother and the eldest lady had already received the news. The eldest lady was worried about her daughter's safety, so she hurriedly came over and met Yuxin halfway. She held her hand for a while.

After some interrogation, they found that although Yuxin was safe and sound, she was deep in thought and in a trance. He said that she was too frightened, so he quickly took Yuxin back to Cining Palace to bid farewell to the Queen Mother.
