Mountains and rivers pray for peace

Chapter 13 The Unexpected Incident
Eunuch Li exclaimed, several silver lights flashed, and the guard with a knife hidden in the dark suddenly appeared.In an instant, the original pavilion was tightly covered by more than a dozen walls of human flesh, and not a single fly could be let in.

The more powerful a person is, the more important they regard their own life.The minister's wife, who was originally a little sleepy due to the complicated ceremony, was startled when she heard this exclamation. She nervously observed every move around her, for fear that a blind assassin would jump out of the grass.

After all, the emperor is the king of a country. Even if he is flustered, he has to pretend to be calm on the surface in order to keep the courtiers and concubines around him steady. Therefore, he just stood in the middle of the pavilion and watched the movement in the distance.

The queen and concubine Shu didn't move, but their frowns revealed their fear and worry.

Not long after, several tall guards carried a little eunuch and threw him in front of Eunuch Li.

The little eunuch was sweating profusely on his forehead, and when he raised his head, he found that standing in front of him was Eunuch Li, the head servant.

Looking back, there are a group of people standing in the dark behind, and a bright yellow robe corner can be vaguely seen through the gap, which is undoubtedly the current day.

This little eunuch is not very old, and he has been in charge of cleaning and vigil in the imperial garden. At most, he only deals with the father-in-law of the imperial garden. How has he ever seen such a big scene?
I was so frightened that I peed my pants immediately, trembling and saying: "My father-in-law, please forgive me, my father-in-law, please forgive my life... I am not an assassin, I am just a night eunuch in the royal garden."

Eunuch Li saw that this young eunuch was timid, and no murder weapon was found on his body. Instead, it seemed that he was making a fuss out of a molehill, and his face was a little unhappy: "Since he is a palace servant in the Royal Garden, how can he be so flustered and stateless?" ? You don’t stay vigil in the Imperial Garden at night, but instead walk around here, do you want to disturb the Holy Master!"

The little eunuch faltered and said: "Slave, I am not flustered." But even though he said this, his jaw trembled as if it was about to fall off.

Seeing this, Eunuch Li completely lost his patience: "Sneaky at night, acting suspiciously. Your Majesty is kind, if you confess honestly, there is still a way to survive; if you continue to hesitate, and the power of heaven descends, it will be a dead end!"

The little eunuch was so frightened that he kowtowed his head three times, pointed to the small building not far from the pavilion, and tremblingly said: "Damn the servant... The servant just watched... There seems to be someone in the small building... .”

After finishing speaking, the little eunuch did not dare to say any more.

The little eunuch complained endlessly in his heart. A quarter of an hour ago, he had just finished cleaning the fallen leaves in the imperial garden and was about to go into the small building to rest and drink hot tea to warm himself.

But before he entered the door, he heard an indescribable sound coming from inside.

He quietly looked in through the crack of the door, and was immediately terrified.A man and a woman were lying on the bed inside, their clothes were exposed, and the woman's bellyband had already been thrown on the ground.

He doesn't know the woman in the small building, but he does know the man next to him, who is the noble and favored Prince Zhenyuan Hou.This prince of Zhenyuanhou has entered the palace many times, and he is already a familiar face in the palace. He has also seen him from a distance in the imperial garden.

Although the young eunuch is not very old, he also understands that the way to settle down in this palace is to pretend to be deaf, blind and dumb, and troublesome people have already become a bouquet of flowers in the imperial garden.

He accidentally ran into such a big scandal, and he just wanted to run away quickly and swallow this matter in his stomach.Unexpectedly, after running a few steps, he was caught straight.Now that he is charged with disturbing the holy car again, I'm afraid his life will be in danger.

Hearing the little eunuch's words, Eunuch Li was a little puzzled at first, but then he understood, and turned his head to report to Emperor Xiaowen in the pavilion: "Your Majesty, it is the eunuch who is on duty at night in the imperial garden who disturbed the emperor, because he looked at the small building in the imperial garden. Someone lost their sense of proportion in a moment of panic.

The servant thought to himself, it must be the eunuchs and maids of some palace who are disorderly, taking advantage of no one's attention to do things.How to deal with this matter, I ask His Majesty to judge. "

"Eunuch Li, today is a good day, but now such an unlucky thing happens, just drag that eunuch out and beat him to death!" Concubine Shu covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and said abruptly.

After all, Concubine Shu said to the Queen intentionally or unintentionally: "The entire harem depends on my sister, the mother of the country, but now the people in the harem are so disorderly, it is because my sister is too soft-hearted." The queen is guilty of lax governance.

The queen blessed Emperor Xiaowen and said, "Your Majesty, emotions and desires are human nature. Although this move is indeed inappropriate, it will be over after a few slaps. Why kill a living thing? I think the words of Concubine Shu are a bit exaggerated. "

Seeing that it was just an oolong caused by a little eunuch, everyone in the pavilion breathed a sigh of relief.The originally chaotic situation returned to order, but the atmosphere was still not relaxed.

Today's Qiu Ju Banquet was full of fine people, and we saw a lot of dirty things.After hearing Eunuch Li's reply, some discerning guests began to discuss in a low voice: "If it's true that some eunuchs and maids are against each other, why is this little eunuch frightened like this? It's probably not an easy matter..."

Although the words were not loud, they were just enough for the people present to hear them clearly.Everyone was a little suspicious, but they didn't know in which direction the situation would develop.

Some good people put on an expression of watching the show. After all, it has nothing to do with themselves. Watching fun is much more refreshing than simply reciting poems and drinking tea.

People who are afraid of trouble just want to go home and rest quickly. Who knows what trouble will happen today.Knowing too much is not a good thing.

Suddenly, Eunuch Li heard a majestic voice above his head: "Bring the people in the small building here."

"This slave accepts the order." Eunuch Li responded in a low voice, waved his hand, and led a few strong guards to arrest the person.

Everyone in the pavilion watched secretly and looked at each other.

On the sycamore tree at this end, Shen Yuning looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and said with a smile: "You can tell the time very accurately."

Huo Qi looked up at the man next to him. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he was praising or sarcastic. He said lukewarmly, "Your Highness should know the saying 'A true gentleman watches chess but never speaks'."

After a pause, Huo Qi said again: "This game of chess has almost been played, and it's time for the courtiers to finish it. Your Highness can do it."

With that said, Huo Qi prepared to climb down the tree trunk, but it was a little difficult.

Shen Yuning raised his eyebrows, and when Huo Qi wasn't paying attention, he hugged her and fell to the ground.But he was very measured and let go of Huo Qi as soon as he landed firmly on the ground.

Huo Qi only felt a butterfly land on her waist, so he didn't blame Shen Yuning and Meng Lang.

At this moment, she calmed down and looked at Shen Yuning, but she sighed slightly in her heart.Although this man's words were a little unpleasant, he was so good-natured that even when he climbed a tree to eavesdrop, he didn't even feel embarrassed at all.

She has lived two lifetimes and met many handsome men, even Yuan Shao can be regarded as a gentle gentleman praised by everyone in the capital, but she is probably inferior to Shen Yuning.

She couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the reason why Shen Yuning lived in solitary confinement was because he was afraid of being kidnapped and made a young boy?
Seeing Huo Qi staring at her, Shen Yuning was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

Huo Qi coughed lightly in embarrassment: "It's okay."

If the King of Hell in front of her knew what she was thinking, wouldn't he strangle her to death?Huo Qi chose to give in.

"This king also wants to see who wins this game of chess."

Shen Yuning didn't worry about it any more, and shifted her gaze to the pavilion, her expression flickering.

On the other side of the viewing pavilion, in less than a cup of tea, Eunuch Li left and returned.

Behind him was a man and a woman, presumably the people who lived in the small house, and looking over from a distance, one could see that both of them were disheveled and their hair was disheveled.It's just that their clothes don't look like eunuchs and palace maids.

As Eunuch Li got closer and closer, the people in the pavilion gradually saw clearly the appearance of the man and woman behind them, and were greatly shocked:
Aren't these two people the Prince of Zhenyuan and the second young lady of the Huo family who danced just now? !

　Brother Shen: I'm not taking advantage of her!I don't!
