Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 585
At midnight, the spring is as cold as ice.

Zhao Xiwei was sitting under the lamp, pinching a slender golden thread, his fingertips were flying like a cloud, the golden thread flew back and forth like a shuttle, amidst the radiance, a golden thread tassel had begun to take shape.

A few big maidservants were standing around, with anxiety written all over their faces.

After seeing Miss Qiao off, the princess took a handful of gold thread and sat in the room to weave things.

This day has passed, and there was no news from the palace, and even His Royal Highness did not come back.

Jinxiu bit her lips, and was about to speak, when Zhao Xiwei stood up suddenly with a "shua", and ordered: "Bring the cloak, and follow me into the palace!"

"Crown Princess!" Suyu's eyelids twitched, and she was about to stop her, but she gave her a cold glance: "Raise the lantern and lead the way!"

"Yes." The stunned people came back to their senses, hurriedly responded, and quickly dispersed.After a while, the lantern-carrying lantern and the fan-playing fans, surrounded by stars like the moon, surrounded Zhao Xiwei and left the courtyard gate.

Go out from Neifang, pass Chongwen Hall, and pass Chongjiao Gate.

Zhao Xiwei kept walking along the palace wall all the way to the main entrance of the East Palace.

She is tall and slender, with wide sleeves and jade jingle around her waist. She walks like wings on her ribs, blowing her sleeves with the fragrance of fragrance, but she doesn't feel flustered at all.

The maids were almost trotting with their skirts lifted, but no one dared to say a word, and no one dared to slow down a small step.

Seeing this scene, the palace attendants along the way hurriedly bowed down to salute, and when the corners of their eyes drooped slightly, they all showed strange expressions.

Whether surprised or frightened, a question popped up in my heart:
In the middle of the night, where is the princess going?
It stands to reason that concubines are not allowed to leave the palace in the middle of the night without an edict.They are court ladies, do you want to persuade them?
But just when this idea came up, he heard a cold voice above his head: "Back off!"

"Yes..." The ladies in the palace shuddered, and took a few steps back abruptly, making way for a wide avenue.

The scarlet cloak is densely woven with gold patterns, and the pure white fox fur collar is fluffy and soft, hiding a pear-like face, like frost like snow, like ice like jade.

No, it's a little more indifferent than Shuangxue, and a little more luxurious than Bingyu.

It was the first time for the palace people to see the crown princess's icy expression, like an ice beauty carved out of thousands of years of ice, so breathtakingly beautiful that one would suspect that if one took a second look, her soul would be frozen by her.

Everyone could not help but squeeze their palms tightly.

As we all know, the princess is such a delicate and coquettish person, and she has never spoken harshly to her servants.

At this time, the attitude suddenly changed, and everyone was frightened, but they couldn't help but think about it: What happened?
While looking down and thinking, the princess has hurried away.

When everyone raised their heads, they suddenly saw the trains flying, just like the rising sun, dazzling and dazzling.

At the main entrance of the East Palace, it was time for the guards to change their guards.

Standing in the cold wind in the middle of the night, the limbs under the armor were almost frozen, and even the iron body was a little unbearable. It was difficult to wait until the shift was changed, and then he let out a foul breath, but suddenly heard the sound of rings clinking in the distance , and then the cold wind hit the ears.

The waist and abdomen of more than a dozen guards tensed immediately, and they clenched their weapons like a conditioned reflex, and swept out with lightning speed.

With a "click", the gold and iron collided, sending out a few sparks.

"The palace gate ahead, idlers stop!" Qi Qi yelled angrily, and the guards swarmed over, completely blocking the way.

The wind calmed down, and the rolled skirt also drooped down, only the accessories around the waist were still jingling, crisp and melodious.

The guards frowned and scolded angrily: "Who is so ignorant of the rules, it's in the middle of the night..." Halfway through the speech, they suddenly fell silent.

After being stunned for a while, he said tremblingly: "Mrs. Mrs. Concubine... why are you here?"

Who doesn't know that the crown princess is the precious bump in the palm of the crown prince...

But guarding the gate of the palace is not an ordinary job, it is responsible for the safety of the entire East Palace, and anyone who enters or leaves without a letter is considered a forced intrusion.

Forcibly breaking into the palace gate is like an assassin.

All the guards froze for a moment, neither took a step back nor stepped forward.Holding the crosspiece of the weapon with only one hand, he maintained a blocking posture.

The cold night fell like ink, and the torches crackled.

In the cold and the heat, the bodyguards moved slightly, moved their heels, and felt that they should not be too strong - after all, I don't know what happened, if His Royal Highness said something, wouldn't it mean that I would be overwhelmed? go?
In the death-like silence, the torch elongated their figures and cast them on the blue floor tiles, deep and shallow, like a shadow puppet show with swords drawn.

A cold voice sounded faintly, like ice breaking through jade, with a kind of indifference and indifference: "I have something important to do in my palace, and I am about to enter the palace to meet the crown prince, who dares to stop me?"

"Meet the prince..." The guard looked at me and I looked at you, and slowly figured out something unusual.

The princess wants to break into the palace in the middle of the night to see the prince, that is to say, it is not the order of the prince?
Since there is no order from the prince, they have no reason to let them go.

But if you don't let him go, it's not good to just arrest him like this...

Amidst the sighs, someone whispered quietly: "The princess...isn't she grounded?"

A word to awaken the dreamer.

The concubine, who was grounded, broke out of the gate of the East Palace in the middle of the night, saying that she was going to see His Highness the Crown Prince. Isn't this just nonsense?

"Princess, please forgive me. If there is no order, no one can let you go." The leading guards bowed their hands, with a tough but blameless attitude, "As soldiers, we are ordered to guard the East Palace. There are a lot of dignitaries coming and going, and they all have to follow the rules. If it is urgent, it needs to be reported to Zhan Shifu for approval by Mr. He, and then transferred to the relevant government office to make a record before I can let it go. Please don't make things difficult for me. "

"Brother, it's not that our Crown Princess does not follow the rules, but that it happened so suddenly that His Royal Highness didn't have time to deliver the order, so please be more flexible. After we enter the palace with the Crown Princess, someone will definitely enshrine the order and offer it to you." You check the registration..."

"Miss speaks lightly." Before Jinxiu could finish her sentence, the guard at the gate interrupted, "We'll let you out after a while. Your Highness will be held accountable in the future. How should I deal with it?"

"The little general is right." Suyu took a step forward and took out a silver bag from her sleeve, which weighed more than a dozen taels. A little favor from the Crown Princess, I will give it to everyone to drink and eat."

Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, not to mention there is money to give away.

No matter how difficult it is, it is time to give in.

But Li Xuanye was extremely strict on weekdays, and these guards were all carefully selected and trained rigorously, not to mention a few taels of silver, even a box of golden gold, no one would take a second look.

Even the attitude will be more resolute - after all, in the Eastern Palace, accepting bribes is an added crime.

They all had a straight face, as cold and arrogant as if they were carved out of a mold, and they didn't even look at Suyu.

There is no room for negotiation in what he said: "Prince Princess, you know that His Royal Highness has always attached great importance to rules. When we should let go, we will naturally let go. When we shouldn't let go, we can't let go even if the sky falls. A dereliction of duty If the crimes are shared, at least one will be fined and his salary will be confiscated..."
