Chapter 1321 Are You Really Not Afraid of Regretting Yourself?
"He wants me to go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony?"
Yuan Yunqiao's ecstasy just now subsided slightly, she fixedly looked at the maid, and asked.
"Yes, Lord Liu said that he is waiting for the master in the side hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony."
Hearing this, Yuan Yunqiao's eyes flickered slightly, and she paced in front of the window, thoughtful.
"Report everything he said after you met Mr. Liu, and don't hide anything!"
"Yes! This servant dare not hide from the master!" The servant girl hastily explained all the conversations between the two at the gate of the imperial garden, and even described Liu Zhixia's expression and reaction at that time clearly.
After explaining, the servant girl hesitated for a while before carefully reminding, "Master, half an hour has passed, less than half."
"Let's go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony." Yuan Yunqiao closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
What the maid said didn't sound strange. Liu Zhixia was reserved, but if he touched his bottom line, his ruthlessness might not be weaker than Nanling King. So his reactions were all reasonable.
Under the moonlight, the two masters and servants avoided the palace servants and servants on the road, and hurried to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
This opportunity is so hard-won, so difficult that Yuan Yunqiao deliberately ignores the trace of unreliability in her heart.
This is her last chance.
Tonight, there was a banquet in the palace to entertain the envoys from various countries, everyone was drunk, even Liu Zhixia was a bit drunk.
Only at this time can she get close to him.
Otherwise, if you miss this opportunity, you will not be able to find the right time in the future.
The most important thing is that she has just been brought into the emperor's harem, and she hasn't been in bed yet, so she can't be regarded as the emperor's woman.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yunqiao pursed her lips, and a dark look flashed in her eyes.
She doesn't have much time.
Only this time.
Things have developed to the present, she still wants to marry into the Liu Mansion, and even she herself can't tell whether she really likes Liu Zhixia so much, or is it just because she is too unwilling to give birth to a woman who must win? obsession.
After the banquet in the Hall of Supreme Harmony was over, the lights inside and outside the hall were all extinguished. At this time, it was completely dark, without light or sound, and very quiet.
The side hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony is on the left side of the main hall. It looks like a side room extending from the main hall. It occupies a small area and can be reached by crossing the entrance of the main hall.
That direction was also dark and quiet at this time.
Walking step by step, Yuan Yunqiao's chaotic heart began to beat fast again, hitting her chest forcefully, the crosstalk was like beating a drum.
On the night of the end of March in Beijing, the air was still a bit chilly with severe winter, mixed in the night wind, and when it blew on the face, it brought a refreshing coolness to the skin.
Yuan Yunqiao subconsciously tightened her outer shirt, and finally stood still in front of the side hall, "Lord Liu, I'm here."
On the other side, the man's slender figure turned around, looked at her indifferently, his eyes were like cold stars, "Yuan Cairen invited you in the middle of the night, why do you have to talk about it now?"
There was obvious irony hidden in the man's voice, but hearing his familiar voice, Yuan Yunqiao's heart felt uneasy and inexplicably peaceful.
With a step, she approached the man, and finally stood in front of him, looking up at his handsome face, "I know you are angry, and I also know that my behavior is really inappropriate, but if I don't do it today, I will do it again later." I have no chance to speak to you face to face."
"I never thought there was anything to talk about between me and Yuan Cairen. You insist on doing this again and again, are you really not afraid that you will regret it?" Liu Zhixia said coldly, and those eyes became more and more indifferent.
"I have no choice but to enter the palace, and I regret it the most." Yuan Yunqiao laughed at herself, "You can't see how I was treated today? I was summoned to come and go, and I was abused like a performer. I am judged by others! I am the eldest lady of the Yuan Mansion! My great-grandfather was a veteran of the three dynasties of Nanling, a meritorious official! But what treatment did I get in the end? I regret—"
Tread Tread.
The sound of uniform footsteps came from the back of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Both of them knew immediately that it was the footsteps of guards patrolling the palace.
Listen to the direction, it's coming here.
If the imperial guards found out that the two of them were alone here at this moment, Yuan Yunqiao would not be able to tell with ten mouths!
"Go in!" Liu Zhixia's face darkened, and he dodged into the hall first.
Yuan Yunqiao listened to the approaching footsteps, her eyes flickered, and finally Liu Zhixia was a little slower before walking into the hall.
Suddenly it was pitch black.
Just now outside the hall, there was still a faint moonlight for lighting, but inside the hall, the surroundings were opaque.
Even the moonlight that leaks everywhere can only reach a little distance from the door.
Yuan Yunqiao couldn't find her way, but in such a dark space, she could feel the man's aura and his breathing more clearly.
Bang bang, bang bang, my heart beat violently.
Unable to help herself, Yuan Yunqiao raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.
"Lord Liu, before I entered the palace, you rejected me three times in a row. Do you remember?" With a light step, Yuan Yunqiao approached the man's breathing, her voice soft and smiling, "I was very unconvinced, no I understand what is it about me that I am not as good as your wife or Fu Yuzheng, so that you are so dismissive of me. It is only now that I want to understand, what does it matter if you are not as good as me? I like it Wouldn’t you be fine? I have talent, looks, family background, and I can’t lose to your wife in any aspect. You don’t like me, but you don’t want to give yourself a chance to understand me. If we have that If you have a chance, you won't reject me like today, definitely not!"
After finishing speaking, Yuan Yun cleverly rushed towards the blurred figure in front of her eyes, and tore open her skirt with one hand, "Ah!"
The screams in the hall almost immediately attracted the imperial guards outside, and footsteps came towards this side.
And the hall was brightly lit in an instant.
The light was lit from inside the hall, not brought from outside.
Eyes suddenly saw light in the darkness, Yuan Yunqiao's eyes were stimulated and narrowed. After getting used to it, her vision became clear again, and her face suddenly turned pale.
The hall was full of people.
In addition to the guards brought by her maid at the door, there are also people in the hall, most of whom are familiar faces to her.
They were all important and powerful ministers in the court, as well as the emperor Feng Mohan, and the gray-haired old man beside Feng Mohan--Old Yuan.
In the end, Yuan Yunqiao's pupils trembled sharply, her blood all over her body seemed to be frozen, she fixedly looked at the person standing by her great-grandfather's right hand, Liu Zhixia.
Liu Zhixia! He was standing half a foot away from her! Who is she holding?
"What, what's going on here?" Her stiff body was suddenly pushed away, and the person in front of her seemed to wake up suddenly after being drunk, and said incoherently, "This is none of my business, Your Majesty! I just went to the wrong place. How did I get here, I, I..."
"Hahahaha!" After Yuan Yunqiao was extremely shocked, she looked around at the people around her and burst out laughing.
