Chapter 48
Put your hand on the heavy vermilion palace door, and slowly push it open.As soon as it opened to the width of a palm, a palace guard guarding the gate stared into his eyes and said solemnly: "The Emperor has ordered that the Kunning Palace has been sealed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave this place unless there is an order from the Emperor." After saying this, there was a "bang", and the palace guards pulled the palace door shut with all their strength outside.
Staring at the closed palace gate, Qingshu finally understood why he was the only one in such a big palace.Whether it is the dungeon or Qingyun Palace, they are nothing but cages for Wuji to imprison himself.
Although annoyed, Qing Shu was not discouraged.He leaned against the palace door, put his ears on it, breathed lightly, and listened carefully to the movement outside.
"Fifteen, sixteen, seventeen"
Qing Shu listened to the sound of the footsteps of the guards, silently remembering the number in his heart, and he gradually figured out the pattern.When Shang Ding arranged for the guards to guard the Kunning Palace, he didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but something went wrong.Every two shifts of palace guards will stagger the time for a cup of tea, this is Qingshu's opportunity.
Taking advantage of a group of palace guards leaving, Qingshu pushed the palace door open just enough to allow him to pass through, and then closed the door from the outside.
He lowered his head and walked silently against the wall.Although Qingshu is taller than ordinary court ladies, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child. He has no fat on his body, and his waist is very thin. It is not very suspicious to put on women's clothes.His plan was very successful, the changing guards walked past him, they just regarded him as an ordinary maid, they didn't doubt him at all, let alone kept him for questioning.
Qing Shu glanced forward through bangs, there is still a corner!He clenched his fist in his heart, as long as he passed this corner, he would be completely out of the sight of the palace guards, and he could find a way to find the antidote.
A beam of light seemed to unfold before his eyes, but it was immediately cut off again.
"Stand, stand, didn't you hear me when I told you to stand? Stop."
Even though Qing Shu tried his best to ignore the voice behind him, but he couldn't ignore the successive calls.
He stopped in embarrassment, and Shangcai walked over quickly, walked around in front of him, and said out of breath, "The more I call you, why don't you leave? The emperor entertained the envoys from Persia, the maids and eunuchs in the palace." You are so busy that one can take care of two, yet you still have time to hang out here. Eunuch, I am a good person, so I won’t punish you, just follow me quickly, the emperor is still waiting for someone to use!”
Although Qing Shu was staring at the ground, careful not to let Shang Cai see his face, but he kept shaking his head.Wuji is too familiar with himself, every step closer to him, the danger of being discovered increases.
Shang Cai was in a hurry to find someone to help, and he didn't bother to persuade the maid who didn't know what to expect, so he just dragged him away.
Don't look at Shangcai not knowing martial arts, but he has a whole body of stupid strength, Qingshu can't get rid of him no matter what.Qing Shu sighed regretfully as long as he was one step faster, he would not be caught by him.It seemed that he could only take one step at a time, and he pulled his bangs down again anxiously.
The drums and music in the Tai Chi Hall sounded together, and the dancers wore exquisite clothes and danced in the hall.Wuji sat on the throne, maintaining a majestic appearance, secretly absent-minded, wondering if Qingshu was eating well, should he send Shang Ding to take a look
"Your Majesty, it's time for you to give wine to the Prince of Persia."
Wuji took back his erratic thoughts. The friendship between the two countries is very important. This time the Persian prince led his concubines and concubines and a caravan to come, showing great sincerity.I should also do my best to entertain, so as to promote trade between the two countries.
"Giving wine."
Shang Ding held the wine jug to the Persian prince Lucia who was seated below. The prince got up, saluted Wuji to express his thanks, and then took the wine glass and drank it down.
The ministers and subordinates of both sides sat on the left and right, enjoying a sumptuous imperial banquet and wonderful singing and dancing.
After the dance was over, the Prince of Persia stood up and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Xiao Wang also brought a song and dance for you when he came here this time."
Wuji put down the wine glass and smiled brightly: "Thank you for your trouble, Prince. I never thought you could speak Chinese so well."
The prince replied respectfully: "Xiao Wang has always liked the culture of the Central Plains, so he specially invited the master to learn it for a long time, but he is not very fluent. If there are any mistakes, please don't take offense."
"That's natural. Since it's a song and dance you specially prepared, why don't you come out, I'm also a little curious about the style of Persian song and dance."
The prince sent Pai Palm, and a team of Persian dancers came out.
The lead dancer was a beautiful girl with a graceful figure, wearing a light pink tulle half covering her face.With gorgeous jewelry on her body, her enchanting makeup seduces people's hearts.
Wuji took a look, his eyes widened in surprise, he took a sip of his wine, and coughed slightly.The tips of his ears turned red, and he didn't dare to look any further.
Those girls are naturally extremely beautiful, and they dance very well, but those clothes with their navels exposed make Wuji feel unacceptable.How can you dance in front of people without covering your clothes?Although he, the emperor, was not very comfortable watching, the others were full of concentration and watched with gusto.Man, how could he turn a blind eye to such a beautiful dance.
Wuji suddenly heard a discordant voice rushing into his ears, he looked towards the side door of the main hall where the sound came from, and saw a beauty, a person who made his heart beat.
Although Wuji had imagined Qing Shu wearing women's clothes, he never had the idea of forcing him to change into women's clothes.Slightly raised his eyebrows, why did the senior brother take the initiative to change into such a suit and appear in front of him?
The clothes are as thin as ice cream, white with pinkish purple, translucent around Qing Shu's body, hazy like a dream, elegant and beautiful.Wearing it on the body, Wuji can see the light yellow tube top faintly exposed inside.
Although Qing Shu was very reluctant, he was still dragged to the main hall by Shang Cai.
After entering the palace, he wanted to turn around and leave, but Shang Cai stopped him and said in a low voice: "What are you making a fuss about, little maid, do you know what occasion this is? This is the emperor's banquet for the envoys from Persia. The one who sits first is the Prince of Persia. If you disturb the emperor and disturb the emperor, it will be a major event to destroy the diplomatic relations between the two countries. Not to mention killing your nine clans, even killing your ten clans will not be enough."
Qing Shu was left speechless by what he said, Shangcai saw that he was honest, and said: "You are not small and small, so I don't need you to deliver food. Mei Er, who holds the 'barrier fan' behind the emperor, has been there since morning. Standing there clinging to the fan, now that she is holding on, she is almost unable to hold on, so you go and help her down and let her rest."
Qing Shu lowered his head and said vaguely: "Is it possible to do other things?"
"Hey, my little aunt, don't be picky at this time, just do it urgently."
Feeling apprehensive, Qing Shu walked slowly behind Wuji, trembling in his heart, hoping that he would not notice him.He kept his head down all the way, so he didn't see Wuji secretly looking at him with playful eyes.
Mei'er was replaced, Wuji picked up the wine glass, looked at the person standing behind him reflected in it, and smiled dotingly.He didn't think at all about how Qingshu escaped from Kunning Palace under the guard of the palace guard.
Qing Shu held the barrier in his hands and realized how heavy it was. No wonder the father-in-law asked him to replace Meier. If she collapsed from exhaustion, it would damage the royal dignity and the dignity of the court.
The music was still going on, listening to the jumping melody and the musical instrument he had never heard before, Qing Shu looked up curiously, and blushed instantly.He took a breath in surprise, and exclaimed softly, "Ah!" He lowered his head in a panic, gentleman, do not see evil, he was at a loss and didn't know where to put his eyes.Finally, he rested his eyes on Wuji's back and let his mind go.
Wuji has excellent hearing, so how could he ignore Qingshu's voice.He held back a laugh, knowing that Qing Shu, like himself, was also taken aback by the dancer's clothes.
Wuji picked up a grape and squeezed the pulp into his mouth. The image of the shy and cute senior brother, who has always been a gentleman, appeared in his mind at this time, and his mood was a little buoyant.
He was suddenly interested in watching that Persian dance, imagining how Qing Shu would change into such a suit, barefoot in front of him, dancing coquettishly.
After the dance was over, the prince asked Wuji, "Does the Emperor still like this dance?"
Wuji praised bluntly: "The dance is excellent, and the gift prepared by the prince is really unique."
Both parties were very happy, chatted a little, and continued to watch the singing and dancing.Qing Shu just stood blankly behind Wuji, standing there for a long time, Wuji felt a little distressed.But in front of foreign envoys, it is really unruly to hug a court lady on your lap.
Wuji thought for a while, and asked Shang Ding what plans he had for today.Shang Ding replied: "Going back to the emperor, there will be a banquet in the evening, and the prince and others will be invited to watch a play in the imperial garden. There is nothing else besides this."
Wuji nodded: "Move the performance to tomorrow, let's leave after dancing today."
The maids in the palace are all trained, even if they stand for an hour, they will not move.Although Qing Shu has a good foundation, but after losing all his skills, he is just an ordinary person. After standing for so long and holding such a heavy object in his hands, not only his arms trembled slightly, but also the soles of his feet ached.Stealthily lift up the left and right feet alternately, and move a little.
Finally, when the last program ended, Shang Ding announced that today's banquet was over, Wuji got up, and said goodbye to the prince and others.The prince went back to the post house with his people in a mighty way, and the ministers also left.Qingshu thought that the task was over, so he wanted to put down the barrier.
Shang Cai, who was serving at the side, quickly stopped the court lady who didn't understand the rules. "Lian'er, you are here to replace her. You are new to the palace? Why don't you understand any rules! Go to the nanny to receive the punishment yourself."
How could Wuji tolerate others scolding Qingshu. "Shut up! What I mean is that there are so many rules in the palace, it is inevitable to forget some." Then he turned to Qingshu and said, "Are you new here? You don't need to clean up with them here , save a lot of mistakes. Serve me and go back to the bedroom."
Wuji couldn't bear to expose Qingshu so quickly, teasing him like this, but it's very interesting.
Qing Shu thought that he really hadn't been seen through by him, and his fate was difficult, so even if he was unwilling, he had no choice but to follow him back to the bedroom.
Following Wuji, holding the palace lantern, Qingshu thought: "No matter how lewd and shameless he is, he probably wouldn't just attack a court lady casually, it's okay, it's okay, maybe he'll hide the antidote in the What about the bedroom? This makes it easier for me to find things."
In front of the emperor's bedroom, Qing Shu hesitated for a moment, and stopped there refusing to go in.Wuji opened the door and waited for him.
Qing Shu stared at the ground, it’s okay, it’s okay, he didn’t recognize me, it’s okay—finally mustered up the courage, he stepped up and crossed the threshold.Behind Qing Shu, the palace door of the bedroom was closed.
