C131

The day of the new year, the palace maids woke me up very early. Today, all the women in the harem had to pay their respects to the empress dowager under the leadership of Imperial Concubine Mu.

He did not spend the night at the Palace of the Righteous Flowers last night, and he did not have to go to the morning court today.

When I saw him, he was with Imperial Concubine Mu. I was surrounded by many women and could only look up at him, watching as he protected Imperial Concubine Mu and held her hand as they walked. It was only now that I realized that my previous intimacy with him was truly unbelievable.

Imperial Concubine Mu was dressed in a short white fox fur coat, and beneath her was a light blue dress. It was as if she was a plum flower that had bloomed shyly in the face of snow and wind, and her light makeup reflected off two pools of autumn water.

She was walking right in front, side by side with him, followed by Yang Fei and Li Fei. I stood in the crowd and followed the crowd into the empress dowager's palace, following the crowd as they kowtowed.

Lin Shangyi gently pulled my hand, and those bright and beautiful big eyes asked me with concern, "What's wrong?"

I shook my head with a chuckle and told her that I was fine. She couldn't hear what she said at the back, only that when she followed the crowd out, she had some jewelry or something in her hands that the empress dowager had ordered her palace maids to give us.

The concubines were in high spirits as I followed the emperor and Imperial Concubine Mu to see the Spring Flowers and write pads. I wasn't interested in anything like that.

Master has his master's circle, and the palace maids are also free to follow me today. My two palace maids look at the court ladies eagerly as they move aside. I told them to go and play by themselves.

The palace maid hesitated: "That's more like it …"

I'll go to the Begonia Academy and learn some embroidery from Shang Yi. I'll only be back after noon.

The maid left, and I was relieved.

Actually, I don't like to be followed wherever I go. It makes me feel like I have to be careful with everything I say and do.

Walking alone to Merlin, how lonely it was today. I sat under the Plum Blossom Tree and looked up at the snow-white fragrance. Let it take away all the worries in my heart.

"I knew you would be here?" A confident and hearty smile squeezed into the tranquil Merlin. He waved his hands in front of my eyes and said, "I have recovered my soul."

I tilted my head and looked at Yan. "Do you have an egg cake with you today?"

"Yes." He smilingly patted the bag on his waist. "Have you forgotten that I am a Hundred Treasure Bag?"

He plopped down on the snow and fumbled in his pocket for an omelet and handed it to me.

It was greasy, but it was the fragrance of the world. I chewed it and chewed on it. He looked at me quietly and said nothing without asking me.

After eating half of it, I smiled and said, "The food outside the palace is still as delicious as ever. I really want to eat today, so I told myself that I am still the same as I was before. I can still find my old self."

He smiled and put a handful of snow on my palm. It's like my kitten ate the fish, and it's greasy. "

"That's great." "No," I said softly.

"If you like it, I can give you a cat. You don't know, it only has one nest in its entire life. If you give it something to eat but it doesn't want it, it likes to steal it. Then, it rubs its face with its claws." He looked at me and laughed.

I wiped my face and snappily laughed, "Ah Yan, you are really unkind to actually mock me."

"Are you very unhappy?" He softly asked, "How about I send you the kitten tomorrow so you can play at night. At night, I can leave the palace."

I sighed. "How can I afford it?" He would definitely find out where the kitten came from.

I like to talk to Yayan as if I was still the carefree Yun Zhiqiu outside the capital.

"It's not like there's no other way. How about this, I'll shelter it for you. You just need to give me something valuable." His eyes were shining.

I shook my sleeves and took out the pearl hairpin from within. There were only two plain and colorless hairpins in his hand. "Just these two pieces. You have to make Cat as strong as a pig for me."

He pointed a finger at me, then fell to the ground, trembling. "I spat blood and died."

I couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Yan, slow down. I'll dig a hole for you." He who had died sat up and laughed: "People say that the most poisonous thing is a woman's heart. You are right, my family's kittens will chase you down."

His smile, his eyes, were as clean as the blue sky.

I asked him softly, "I really want to leave the palace, but the palace walls are too high. I want to leave, but I can't. Yen, if I were the Emperor's woman, would you still talk to me like this?"

He smiled, but there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes. "Are you?"

I nodded. "Yes, I'm not a palace maid, Yen."

"I do." He smiled slightly and said, "Of course I will talk to you. You like to eat egg cakes, right? "You don't like liveliness, so you're always quietly thinking about something. When I first saw you, I was really shocked. I thought some monster had gotten lost in the plum blossom and had a stunning heart. But when I looked, it turned out to be a tragic one …"

"What?" I gritted my teeth and stared.

He stammered, "She's a little beauty."

"Hur hur, that's more like it." I smiled and pulled him up. "Stop playing dead. Hurry up and get up. I just happened to see you here. You can climb up the Plum Blossom Tree to help me break the prettiest Plum Blossom."

He lay down and wailed, "I'm dead, don't disturb me."

This person, seriously, would really cause all the worries in one's heart to vanish without a trace.
