Chang Anqing

Chapter 189 Awakened
When Li Sui got up and nodded lightly at Empress Yang, he took Jiamo and the others and walked out quickly. As the thick curtains were lifted, the snowstorm of the shouting was much colder and more threatening. Li Sui looked back Seeing Jiang Lihua who was following behind her with a pale face, staring blankly at the heavy snowfall, she looked at Niannu with a hint of worry, and Niannu retreated immediately with comprehension.

When Li Sui and his group arrived at the corridor, the warm sedan chair was ready, and when Li Sui leaned in, Nian Nu, who had been driven out from the palace, came out with a hooded cloak and handed it to him. To Jiang Lihua.

"This is an old thing I usually write. Don't dislike it, Miss Jiang."

Looking at the cloak blown by the wind in front of her, Jiang Lihua hurriedly took two steps back and bowed her head and said humbly: "Thank you for your kindness, but—"

"Just put it on."

Before she could refuse, an undeniable gentle voice came from her ears. When Jiang Lihua turned her head to look, she saw that a corner of the curtain of the warm sedan was lifted, revealing the girl's noble and eye-catching face. She said with a dignified and serious expression: "As a female official of the Zichen Palace, it is a serious crime to lose your manners. Chengde should have taught you these things."

Hearing these seemingly harsh words, Jiang Lihua looked down at the wrinkled and ruined skirt on her body, and realized her gaffe. At this moment, she naturally understood that Li Sui, the owner of Yongning County, was not only reminding herself, but also It's calling yourself.So he immediately said: "What the princess blamed is that the slaves must remember."

After the words fell, Li Sui let go of his hand, and the moment the sedan chair curtain fell, he calmly said: "Go to Ye Ting Palace, go faster."

When Jiang Lihua put on her cloak gratefully, and hurriedly followed the warm sedan chair to the Yeting Palace, her body tensed up anxiously. Hearing the sound of the warm sedan chair falling to the ground, Li Sui opened the soft curtain and walked out.

Seeing a group of people approaching in the wind and snow from a distance, the internal officials guarding the palace gate quickly and respectfully looked at them. Just as Li Sui was approaching, he saw a dignified and extraordinary girl with A group of palace people came over.

However, before they could make preparations, Li Sui skipped them and led the crowd straight towards the place where Yue Zhaoyi was. When he came to the last palace gate, Li Suifang walked down the stone steps , ignoring the saluting servants, and went on their own.

When he stepped into the palace gate, he saw a "snowman" moving with difficulty under the gaze of everyone.

Li Sui saw Jiang Lihua's figure behind him startled, trembling and about to scream and run over, and immediately looked at Nian Nu.

"Princess Yongning has arrived—"

Under Nian Nu's notification, Jiang Lihua stopped her movements abruptly, and everyone in the distance followed the sound without any surprise.

While meeting Yue Zhaoyi's malicious eyes, Li Sui held his head high, with a somewhat dignified and distant smile on his lips, and walked in step by step with Nian Nu's support.

"Princess Chang Ning—"

Amidst the humility and neatness of everyone saluting, Li Sui's gaze remained on the gorgeous and proud figure in the corridor, until he crossed the crowd and walked to the corridor, then he clasped his hands together and saluted gracefully and grandly.

"It's snowing so much, why did the princess come here?"

Although Yue Zhaoyi understood Li Sui's intentions when she saw Jiang Lihua behind Li Sui, but remembering that Li Sui was the cousin of the emperor and Princess Pengcheng, the Yang and Li families behind him were not ordinary people. Even her elder brother and Princess Pengcheng often reminded her not to cause conflicts easily.

Therefore, it is rare for Yue Zhaoyi to sell her face and get up and go down to help each other.

Feeling the warm temperature in Yue Zhaoyi's hands, Li Sui stood up with a smile, knowing that Jiang Lihua behind him couldn't wait anymore, and Chen Shi who was in the ice pond couldn't bear it anymore, so he didn't say much, and straight to the point Said: "I heard that someone in Ye Ting Palace damaged the imperial gift, and now His Majesty and Concubine Shu, who is in charge of the Sixth Palace, are not in the palace, so His Highness wanted to come to check it out in person, but today is snowing and cold, Your Highness I am recuperating and cannot go out of the palace, so I was sent to come with Gashang Palace."

Hearing that Li Sui mentioned Concubine Shu, who was in charge of the Sixth Palace, Yue Zhaoyi's face darkened, and she cast a sideways glance at Chen Shi, who was obviously slowing down in the distance, and said: "It's just the servants' business. How can you bother your Highness? I will try it myself, and I will definitely give His Highness a result when the time comes."

After all, Yue Zhaoyi squinted viciously at the man standing behind Li Sui, but his heart and eyes were on Chen's Jiang Lihua.

Li Sui naturally took this scene into his eyes, looked at Yue Zhaoyi with an unchanged smile, and said, "Destroying the imperial gift is a major matter. Your Highness is in charge of the harem, and the mother's world, so naturally you can't stay out of it. As for the trial—"

As he spoke, Li Sui looked at Chen Shi, who was covered in snow in the pool, and said, "Your Majesty has always been sympathetic to the palace people. If someone is killed because of the trial, I'm afraid His Majesty will not be in danger when he comes back. If Zhaoyi is a palace man If there is a gap with His Majesty, then the gain outweighs the loss."

"The princess is reminding me?"

Noticing that the deliberate smile on Yue Zhaoyi's lips gradually faded away, Li Sui's expression did not change, and he said unhurriedly: "Zhaoyi doesn't know, the reason why I told you this is because I follow the rules of my ancestors. Palace affairs have always been handled by Her Majesty the Empress, and when Her Majesty is inconvenient, the Lord of the Sixth Palace, who was proclaimed by the Son of Heaven, will be in charge. Moment, secondly, there is an unwritten rule in the palace that it is not appropriate to see blood during the New Year. Today, His Majesty is going to Yuqing Temple accompanied by Concubine Shu and all the ministers to pray for the people of the world. If there is bloodshed in the harem at this moment, That is an ominous omen, and in the eyes of the people of the world, it is a violation of the blessings bestowed by God, if it attracts the wrath of the gods, it will cause me to have no peace for a whole year."

Yue Zhaoyi, who had become more sullen after hearing Li Sui's repeated mention of Concubine Shu's right to be an assistant, became stiff when she heard this moment, and gradually realized something, and even her eyes showed nervousness bit by bit And uneasiness comes.

"The courtiers have always attached great importance to this. Only by relying on these two things, they will be able to write letters one after another, filling up His Majesty's case with reprimands. Although His Majesty has always loved Zhaoyi, he cannot ignore the feelings of the people of the world. Why did Zhaoyi provoke such an innocent thing?"

Hearing Li Sui's words, Yue Zhaoyi couldn't help but frown, and gradually came to her senses.

Yes--

Now it was Concubine Shu who accompanied His Majesty to Yuqing Temple to pray for blessings, and she was the one who was coldly left behind. This already shows that in the face of the ancestor's rules, the favor of the emperor is always inferior to the position and the power of the sixth palace.

If today she really killed someone because of Jiang Lihua, that lowly maid, then in the eyes of those stubborn courtiers, it would be a good thing for Concubine Shu to accompany His Majesty to pray for the world, but it would be a disaster for her to punish the lowly maid in the harem.

Wouldn't this further highlight Concubine Shu's goodness and bring out her evil?

Concubine Shu was originally at odds with her, and through this, she must encourage her father to slander herself and the Turks in the court, and instead put herself into a passive position.

In this way, she didn't get anything in front of her, but she did no harm to Concubine Shu.

Thinking of this, Yue Zhaoyi suddenly felt furious, even if she didn't get any favors, she would never let that woman, Concubine Shu, get half of the profit from her.

"What the Princess said was—"

Yue Zhaoyi's originally stagnant face melted into a smile little by little. Although Jiang Lihua who seemed to be squinting kindly at the side, and Chen Shi who was about to be unable to support him in the distance, the warning and sternness in his eyes The light couldn't be more obvious.

"It's because I was temporarily destroyed because of the imperial gift, and I lost my salvation."

After all, Yue Zhaoyi glanced at He Lianrong at the side and said, "Let someone come out first."

Seeing that He Lianrong respectfully responded and ordered someone to pass on the message, Jiang Lihua couldn't wait any longer and rushed towards Chen's.

Seeing this, Li Sui still smiled and said: "Your Highness always said that Zhaoyi has always been sensible and considerate of the overall situation, so I will take that person back and ask His Highness to make a decision. As for the pearl falling into the water—"

While talking, Li Sui glanced at Zhishan beside him and said: "After a while, order someone to drain the clean clothes pool, and Nanzhu will be sent back to Lingqi Palace intact. If there is one missing piece, you, Yeting Palace, will take care of it carefully." .”

Hearing that Li Sui solved everything with just a few words, although Yue Zhaoyi was unwilling to let Jiang Lihua's mother and daughter go, she could only pretend to smile generously and said, "The Princess is really wise, but I have never Thought-of."

"Zhaoyi puts His Majesty first, so she didn't take care of it for a while."

Li Sui found the steps for Yue Zhaoyi while he was talking, and then looked aside Zhishan and said: "Zhaoyi was in a hurry to forget today, but you didn't know to remind me from the side. It can be seen that the rules are loose. If nothing happens today Well, if something goes wrong, who of you will be responsible?"

Hearing Li Sui's reminder, Yue Zhaoyi immediately looked at Zhishan with hatred, and immediately had a scapegoat in her heart.

"Auntie, Auntie!"

However, just when everything was about to end, the terrified wailing of the woman behind him made the atmosphere stagnate again, and Yue Zhaoyi felt a thump in his heart when he heard it, faintly aware that it was not good.
