Reborn from the ashes: Deadly Concubine

Chapter 162 The Scary Man: Putting on a Show
In the early morning of winter, before dawn, Han Yingxi's bedroom was already brightly lit.The maids came and went from the gate of the palace, serving His Highness to dress and eat.Of course, there is also Zhuo Zhuo, who is only a female official, but her status is no different from that of a princess.

After Han Yingxi was fully dressed, Han Yingxi sat by the bed and pulled off the pure black fox fur cloak.People in this era only wear one sleeved robe throughout the year, but it is longer and thicker in winter.Therefore, in order to block the sun or resist the severe cold, the nobles would wear a cloak.In winter, of course, thick and warm animal skin cloaks should be worn.

The attendants put the breakfast on the bed with the tray, Han Yingxi picked up a piece of barbecue and stuffed it into his mouth, only to find that Zhuo Zhuo was still doing his hair in front of the bronze mirror.She is dressed beautifully today, wearing a lot of bracelets and anklets, and she is decorating her hair with small silver flowers, one after another taking advantage of her black hair, which is even more eye-catching.

Today, she will enter the palace with Han Yingxi.This is the first time she has entered the palace since she left the palace with Han Yingxi on the night of the banquet.For half a month, she locked herself in Han Yingxi's place and cut off all contact with the outside world.Except for He Lou and his wife, no one else has met.Including Xuanyuanji.I heard that he was out of town on business.

She didn't forget the promise she made to Xuanyuan Linglong, but a lot of things happened after she came back. Although she had the energy to make plans for her, at the same time she also wanted to make plans for You Moqiong.Can't you try to see if You Moqiong is an enemy while trying to find a way to return him to Xuanyuan Linglong?Although she was sure that You Moqiong would not be from Han Qingjian, but she must always be responsible to that cute little girl.

"Zhuo Zhuo, what are you doing so beautifully? No need no need."

Zhuo Zhuo turned his head and smiled at Han Ying.The Second Highness began to play with his temper again: "Today is a big day, of course you have to dress up beautifully."

"No, you can take off those bracelets and anklets. It's so cold, you're not afraid of the cold."

"It's not cold."

Han Yingxi put down the wine glass in her hand and walked up to Zhuo Zhuo, without any explanation, she pulled Zhuo Zhuo over, forcibly took off the strings of gold and silver bracelets on her wrist, and threw them on the carpet.Zhuo Zhuo pouted, he smiled and kissed her small mouth again, pulled her to the side of the bed, pressed her shoulders to let her sit down.

"You're naked if you don't dress up. If you dress up again, I'm worried that those wolf-like men in the palace won't be able to control you. You are my woman."

Zhuo Zhuo snorted softly, picked up a piece of meat, took a bite, and said vaguely while chewing: "You are a jackal, and you are still talking about others."

Han Ying shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "So, I know men very well."

Zhuo Zhuo ignored him, concentrated on eating breakfast, took another big sip from the soup bowl, Han Yingxi held the wine glass again, put it to his lips to drink, but looked at Zhuo Zhuo at the side through the edge of the wine glass.

Zhuo Zhuo was halfway through eating, so he naturally glanced at him, but Han Yingxi had already withdrawn his gaze and put down his wine glass.Zhuo Zhuo smiled lightly, and Han Yingxi looked at her again: "What are you laughing at?"

"I feel that my Yingxi has become a real man since he made up his mind."

He raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean, I used to be a woman?"

Zhuo Zhuo laughed loudly: "Of course not. In the past, His Highness was sloppy and lazy. But recently, His Highness is much more serious. He seldom makes jokes. His gestures are full of royal aura."

His change was not because of becoming an official, but because of the woman in front of him.Although, before breaking the secret, he kept himself the same as before, but the doubts in his heart and the complex feelings of reluctance and hatred for her made him unable to help changing his breath.She, father, elder brother, and other people he didn't know made it impossible for him to be carefree like before.

He was changed unconsciously.What kind of person is he, and how many appearances will he become? The Second Iron Highness before the age of 13, or the playboy not long ago, which one is his true self.

After Zhuo Zhuo accompanied Han Yingxi into the palace, he came alone to the small garden not far from Guangyang Palace.The breath of winter covers the sky and the earth, and the small garden is covered with snow.The main road has been cleared of snow, and two white snowdrifts have formed on both sides of the road.

Zhuo Zhuo pulled up his animal skin cloak to cover his whole body, and then sat on the stone bench.Also wrapped in the cloak was a cloak she made herself.Although the material is not very expensive, her careful tailoring will make this cloak a lot of color.Taking advantage of this opportunity, he also returned what was owed to others.But things can be repaid, what about the kindness owed?She still has to wait here now, and still count on him when returning the things, she really feels guilty.For Han Yingxi, she could indeed be desperate.

Zhuo Zhuo waited quietly, she knew that You Moqiong was back.He Lou arranged everything, the two generals would pass here respectively during the upper and lower courts.

Sure enough, footsteps were heard.Although the blood on the main road has been cleaned up, there is still a thin layer of snow powder scattered in the wind.So when people walk on it, they still make noise.

Zhuo Zhuo stood up and smiled at him: "General You."

You Moqiong saw a woman sitting there from a distance. Although she was far away, she could guess who it was from her appearance.He hurried forward and stood in front of Zhuo Zhuo, with a gentle smile: "Ms. Zhuo Zhuo, why are you here? Did you accompany His Highness into the palace?"

"Yes, because His Highness went to Guangyang Palace, so I have nothing to do. So I thought that I might meet General You with the cloak I made myself. It seems that I am lucky."

As Zhuo Zhuo said, he let go of the cloak, took out the one in his hand, and handed it to You Moqiong.The latter looked a little surprised, but it was obvious that he was very happy: "You really did it? It's very beautiful, and the female officer Zhuo Zhuo's craftsmanship is quite excellent."

"The general laughed at me. In fact, the cloak has been made a long time ago, but I always feel that it is not well done. I put it on hand to look for improvements. But now I have to give it to the general. After all, this is the cloak of early winter. When I go out It will be deep winter after returning, and the general will not be able to wear it."

You Moqiong asked naturally, "Are you going out?"

Zhuo Zhuo looked like he had accidentally said something, and then looked around, his uneasy voice became quieter: "You also know that I was framed, and I have been in a bad mood, so I plan to go to the south to relax. Two Your Highness doesn't know, I didn't tell him because I was worried that he wouldn't let me go. So I planned to run away secretly."

"But His Highness finds that you are missing, and will look for you everywhere."

"So I have to leave the day after tomorrow. He will report to the king after the court that day about the situation of the city defense battalion these days. The king is strict with him, and he can't get away for a while. It will be too late when he finds out that I am missing. General You, Please don't tell anyone else."

You Moqiong shook his head lightly and sighed: "You, it's better not to cause trouble."

Zhuo Zhuo smiled brightly: "It won't happen after this time, General You, don't tell anyone else."

There was still some time before the end of the morning court, and it felt a bit cold, Zhuo Zhuo wandered around in the garden, not daring to go too far.During the two months in the palace, he was threatened with death all the time, besides the threat from King Hanze, there was also the persecution from Han Qingjian. Of course, the saddest thing was the longing for Han Yingxi.All kinds of negative emotions accumulate together, it feels like eating a bad stomach, and seeing the same food again, you can't help but feel sick.Now, when she looked at the palace, she had such a feeling, that's why she didn't follow Han Yingxi into the palace for half a month after she came back.

Fortunately, it is winter now, and there is pure white everywhere. The trees are not obstructed by the lush branches and leaves, and it feels like the whole palace has become much more innocent.

Zhuo Zhuo rubbed his little hands and smiled lightly on his lips.After Han Yingxi becomes the owner of this place, she will start to rectify it..."

"Ah, Zhuo Zhuo, Zhuo Zhuo!"

With a cheerful voice like a child, Zhuo Zhuo hurriedly turned around and raised his fingers.The general with a big mouth, who was happy and trouble-free on weekdays, suddenly looked around cautiously, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

Zhuo Zhuo pulled his cloak and pulled him aside: "Don't make any noise. General Nanmen, let me ask you, is your hometown on the northwest coast?"

Nanmen Yongli blinked his eyes: "That's right, it's the one on the other side. I'm the son of the sea. My muscles smell like the sea. You can smell it." My own arm stretched out from the cloak, the upper arm was flat and the forearm was raised. Even without force, the muscles were clear and obvious.

He leaned close to Zhuo Zhuo's eyes, Zhuo Zhuo pushed his arm away in disgust, and then asked in a low voice: "Let me ask you, where is the most interesting place?"

"Of course it's a place called Chize, the sea there..." Nanmen Yongli said halfway, raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhuo Zhuo, Zhuo Zhuo listened to him attentively, seeing that he stood up, hurriedly urged : "You should hurry up and say it."

Nanmen Yongli looked at Zhuo Zhuo for a while, then asked with a smirk, "Why are you asking this?"

"Just ask." Zhuo Zhuo's eyes flickered, clearly hiding something.

Nanmen Yongli suddenly realized: "Okay, I see, there is a female official who plans to go to the northwest seaside to play, right?"

"No..."

"No? Then it doesn't matter if I tell the Second Highness, right?"

"Don't..." Zhuo Zhuo hurriedly stopped him, and Nanmen Yongli had an expression of "I've seen you through".Zhuo Zhuo stared at him for a long time, then sighed: "You swear, never tell anyone."

Nanmen quickly stretched out the three fingers of his right hand, pretending to be serious and said: "I swear, I will never tell anyone. Is this okay? Tell me quickly, are you going to sneak out to play?"

Zhuo Zhuo sighed lightly: "I've always been very depressed recently, thinking that if I don't go out for a walk, I will definitely suffocate to death. But you also know that the Second Highness has just become an official, it is impossible to go out, but I go out alone , and he would not agree, so I decided to sneak out."

Nanmen Yongli applauded vigorously after hearing this: "Wow, she is indeed an extraordinary female official, with courage and character."

"Oh, keep your voice down, don't let anyone hear you!"

Zhuo Zhuo pulled him, and Nanmen Yongli lowered his voice again. In order to let Zhuo Zhuo hear clearly, he deliberately bent down and got closer to Zhuo Zhuo: "I promise to keep it secret for you, but you plan to When are you leaving?"

Zhuo Zhuo also lowered his voice, acting like a thief: "The morning after tomorrow, remember to keep it a secret for me, otherwise I will never let you go!"
