There is a big sister in the harem

Chapter 166

The empress dowagers of the two palaces all had gloomy faces. Moxiu vaguely sensed the seriousness of the situation. The empress dowager Dong glanced at the woman beside her and saw that she had no intention of concealing anything. False? We also had to knock out our teeth and swallow them in our stomachs."

"You mean, you prepared a fake imperial decree back then, but just when the big event came to fruition, it was dropped to facilitate the success of the current emperor's ascension to the throne. And the one that was dropped is also a fake?" Mo Xiuyi With unbelievable faces, the two empress dowagers looked at each other for a moment, then nodded solemnly.

"The former emperor, did you leave an imperial decree to pass on the throne to whom?"

"No." The Empress Dowager shook her head, "When the first emperor died, there were only a few palace officials by his side. He was already unconscious at that time. Besides, the government was loose in the later period, and many things were left to the prime minister. Reason, if there really is an imperial decree, no one has seen it with their own eyes."

"According to the Empress Dowager, the only solution now is to find the imperial decree in the hands of the emperor." Moxiu looked calm and thoughtful, "Is it possible, the imperial decree has been destroyed, and death has no proof."

"Impossible." The Empress Dowager West spoke firmly, her eyes filled with determination, "The imperial decree passed down through the ages must never be destroyed. The breath of the past, I have forcibly held back until now."

The palm of the hand was lightly thumped on the mahogany table, and the Queen Mother was also indignant, "If he hadn't taken the first step, today's emperor would be Li Er."

The Empress Dowager Xi caressed her strangely shaped fingertips, her red lips were tightly pursed, and a slight smile appeared on the corners of her mouth. Mo Xiu raised his head, and saw sarcasm and ambition from those staring eyes.The Eastern Empress Dowager sometimes has a quick temper, but she can't hide her words. Compared with the Western Empress Dowager, she is much more calm and scheming.

Concubine Fengyue walked out of the dormitory, and after a short walk, she saw Li Yan hurriedly ahead of her, leaving to one side.

She hid behind the copper pillar, and saw the woman looking around, her expression was a little nervous, Feng Feiyue tightly grasped the corner of her robe, and hurriedly followed, Li Yan looked around, and when she saw no one, she bent down and burrowed into the hidden bamboo forest .

Concubine Fengyue stood at the entrance, hesitating, more than once, the emperor would come here whenever he had troubles, this forest seemed to record many things between him and Li Yan.

The oncoming coldness made her hold her breath. Deep in the bamboo forest, it was much colder than ordinary places, and there was already the breath of early winter.As soon as Concubine Feng Yue followed in, she heard a small conversation coming through the thin bamboo leaves. She found a secret rockery to hide in it, and only poked her head out.

"Why are you here?" Li Yan pulled the woman who was standing with her back, "What if the emperor sees it."

"Your Majesty? How could your Majesty see it? Elder sister, do you think he will come here again?" There was some inexplicable sarcasm in her delicate voice, "Can't you let go of this place?" Don't look back, just start here With such a voice, Feng Feiyue can also know who she is.

"Yi Ting..." Li Yan's expression remained calm, "It's just a bamboo forest, I should have put it down, but you, why are you holding on to it?"

"What do you mean?" Shi Jieyu's lips trembled, the coldness in her eyes was deliberately hidden, and she pointed to her heart with tears in her eyes, "Put it down, it's easy to say, Li Yan, I I have been treating you like a sister, tell me, how can I let go?"

"Yi Ting." Li Yan took her both hands, "I know you are unwilling, but the world is like this, don't force it anymore, I guard this bamboo forest, it's not that I can't let it go..."

"Sister." Shi Jieyu interrupted, "You don't understand the pain in my heart, no one can understand."

The resentful tone came slowly, she staggered a few steps, and sat down on the stone bench beside her, "The emperor has returned to the palace, these days, he has never stepped into Jingye Palace."

Li Yan sat in front of her and comforted her softly, "Your Majesty is not here, you have to give him some time to adapt."

Shi Jieyu shook her head and didn't say anything. After sitting for a while, she got up alone. She didn't walk out of the woods.The woman was standing in the garden, her soft gauze skirt swaying on the ground, her hair was drenched by the rain after a while, she was facing the direction of Concubine Feng, looking like this, just saw her bend her red lips bitterly, her body , shivering from the cold.

"Yi Ting..." Li Yan embraced her shoulders and hurriedly dragged her to the rockery on one side, "You are still so weak, you really have to die!"

Concubine Feng saw that the two disappeared from sight, she bent down, arched her body to follow, and chose a secluded place to hide.In the rockery, there is a faint light of fire shining from the slits between the stone walls. It turns out that there is a cave of water and moon inside.

"This..." Shi Jieyu looked around strangely, and saw not only gauze lamps hanging inside, but also some simple pens, inks, papers and inkstones, "Unexpectedly, there is such a place."

Li Yan tidied up her things in embarrassment, "I like quietness. I'm done working in Fengyi Palace on weekdays. I sometimes come here to sit for a while." She gathered up the things she drew and stacked them on the stone table, "Fortunately, No one will bother you."

"Hey, what is this?" Shi Jieyu looked around and saw that the stone wall was carved with a variety of patterns. At first glance, there was no content, like graffiti, but clearly remembered every day.She stood up and followed the marks all the way.Li Yan looked nervous, and quickly covered it up, "This is drawn casually on weekdays, please sit down and rest."

"Sister." Shi Jieyu called out, Li Yancai turned around and stopped, slowly turning her head away, "What's wrong?"

The woman stared at her for a moment, and then tapped the stone wall with her slender index finger, "I remember this day very clearly." Li Yan looked pale, and followed her hand. The only thing she could leave behind was Shi Jieyu's piercing eyes, which became thinner with the wet clothes sticking to her body, "That was the day when I was taken by the emperor to his side."

Li Yan's throat was blocked and she couldn't utter a word.Concubine Fengyue outside held her breath, her heart was even more suspended, she was very nervous.

"At the end of the day, I'm the one who's sorry for you." Shi Jieyu softened her tone, seeing Li Yan standing still, she took the woman's hand, and they sat down together.

"Sister, do you remember what happened back then?"

Li Yan's eyes narrowed slightly under the goose-yellow gauze lamp, she leaned against the cold stone wall, her eyes traveled through time, and fell far away.

"Look at your clumsy appearance, hurry up, be quick, these, and these, are all washed." An aunt put her hands on her hips, and pulled a slender willow branch across the woman's body, her face was hideous. frightened.

"Auntie, auntie, don't be angry." Li Yan wiped the water stains on her sleeves with her hands, and she walked forward quickly, holding the aunt's elbows with both hands, "Who doesn't know you in Huansha Palace? Diligent, but clumsy, I will accompany you to Auntie for her."

"Your mouth is the sweetest." The aunt pointed to the woman squatting on the ground, "Sooner or later I will be pissed off by her, I don't care, good people suffer, you can figure it out."

"Thank you, aunt." Li Yan nodded hastily, squatted down, and sorted and washed the clothes she had collected. She glanced sideways and saw that the manager had gone far away, so she complained, "Yi Ting, you have such a temper. Only by being bullied by others."

The woman raised her small face, she had delicate features and a clean smile, "You are here with my sister, what are you afraid of?"

Li Yan had nothing to do with her, she lightly tapped her forehead with her fingers, "You, let me tell you what's good about you."

Huanshagong's life was very hard, and Shi Yiting was born with a weak temper, so naturally he had several more jobs than others.In the backyard, the beds of the two were close together. After the night was quiet, Li Yan saw that everyone around was already asleep, so she got her head out of the brocade quilt, and gently pushed the woman next to her, "Lean on the ting ..."

The quilt moved, and Li Yan's bright pupils met Li Yan, her voice was extremely low, "Sister, haven't you slept yet?"

"I can't sleep." Li Yan rested her chin on the back of her hand, her hair was a little messy, and the lights were turned off. Although the room was pitch black, Shi Yiting could still see the blush on her face under the bright moonlight.

"Yi Ting, have you ever liked someone?"

The woman blushed, and hurriedly shook her head, "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Li Yan raised the corners of her mouth mysteriously. She carefully groped for a long time in the brocade quilt. When she stretched out, there was a clear jade wrench on her hand, "Does it look good?"

Shi Yiting took the hand and put the finger ring in her palm. She pointed the ring in the middle to the bright moon outside, and narrowed her eyes, "It's so beautiful, where did you come from?"

"It was given by someone else!" Li Yan sweetly pulled the quilt onto her shoulders, "He said he would pick me up."

Shi Yiting clenched her fingers tightly, a brimming smile paused on her small face, her flickering eyes engraved with some unwilling dodge, "Yes, yes."

"Yi Ting, what's wrong with you." Li Yan hastily stretched out her hand to hold the woman's wrist, she knew what she was worried about, "Don't worry, as long as I can get out of this Huansha Palace, I will definitely take you out."

Returning the finger back to her hand, Shi Yiting forced a smile, the reluctance and helplessness in her eyes clearly appeared, "Sister, who is that person?"

Li Yan held the finger in her palm, and her eyes were extremely determined, "We only met a few times in the rockery in the Royal Garden. It was too dark, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly, but his voice was very nice. I heard it." Once, it will never be forgotten.”

"But will he really come to pick you up?"

"It will definitely." Li Yan was sure, "I can't be sure, but I vaguely know that he is a person in this palace. I asked someone to look at it. This finger is not an ordinary object, only princes can have it."

"Really?" Shi Yiting exclaimed, her eyes envious, "Sister, hasn't he seen you?"
