I reached out and twisted it again. Although the material was not new, the texture was very good.

I looked at Liu Li. She moved Nian Yun's shoulders and carefully put his clothes together. The child didn't respond much, but she was gentle, considerate and meticulous in her eyes to ensure that he didn't catch a cold.

I felt my heart beating a little faster, but when I opened my mouth, I tried to keep myself quieter, and there was no abnormality, and the sound was much lower, which was only enough for the two of us to hear-

"Yes, your brother has used it?"

When talking about that "brother", Liu Li's expression became a little sad. He didn't look at me, but continued to tidy up Pei Nianyun's clothes, and then said, "I don't know either. Maybe he had used it or maybe Wei Ningyuan had used it."

"Wei Ningyuan?"

I was stunned: "He—"

"He was actually an orphan. He picked it up in the suburbs while his father was going to Beijing for the exam. This happened later when he heard from his brother that he pity him and took him into the capital and handed it over to a family for adoption. Later, he grew up and joined his brother's disciple. When he talked about this matter, he found out that he was the child he had at the time. So he treated our family-"

Very loyal.

Liu Li probably was worried about the fact that there were still people around him and didn't say this, but I also understood that Wei Ningyuan's loyalty was indeed far beyond that of an ordinary disciple.

However, this is not what surprised me the most. What surprised me the most was that the fabric was mixed with gold thread, which was definitely not something that ordinary people could afford. Its owner must be either rich or noble, but whether it was rich or noble, so how could he throw the child into the suburbs?

More importantly, was this fabric left by Liu Saner or Wei Ningyuan?

If it were Wei Ningyuan's, then his life experience would be unusual.

But if it was Liu Saner...

That proves that it was Liu Shizhou's - I recalled the words of Uncle Ai before, saying that when Liu Shizhou went to Xichuan, he met my mother and received a funding from his mother. It should not be as poor as Liu Yi said before, but even so, he would not be able to afford such materials.

eccentric!

I was thinking that Pei Nianyun put on his clothes and lay on the fence to look at me. I met his black bean-like eyes, and suddenly realized that, picked up the grass stem just now and put it down along the fence.

After a while, a few dragonflies hit the grass stem and stopped on it. If they continued to look like they were wearing a string of dragonflies.

He laughed again.

I smiled and reached out to touch his chubby face.

He seemed to have no feeling, just looking at the grass stem and laughing. However, Liu Li next to him seemed a little surprised to see this scene. After a while, she said softly: "This child... kisses you."

Hum? I looked up at her.

She said, "He usually doesn't let others touch him. If ordinary people want to touch him, they have to stay with him for a long time and get familiar with him before they can touch him, but you - he is not afraid of you at all."

I was also a little surprised and looked down at the child. He was indeed not afraid of me.

But it's not too close to me.

However, this is the best way to live well in this palace. The most important thing is to keep a little distance from anyone.

Thinking of this, I gently stroked his cheek and then retracted my hand.

We sat on it for a while, and then Yin Sisi leaned down and looked down: "Hey, where are the kids?"

I noticed that I didn't hear the sound of their play. I also looked down, but I heard a mess of footsteps behind me. When I looked back, I saw that it was the pink-colored Princess Ling, holding the chubby third prince Pei Nianrong with one hand. She ran and sweated, and the radiance on her forehead was sweaty. As soon as I came up, I let go of my hand and threw myself into my mother's arms.

Ye Yunshuang hugged her and touched her sweaty forehead: "Where did you go? This sweat."

Wen Sisi also hugged Pei Nianrong.

I asked them, "Where is the wonderful words?"

When Princess Ling heard this, she said tenderly: "Sister Miaoyan has gone there to play."

“Which side?”

As I was asking, I heard the voice of a wonderful voice calling me loudly from below—

"mother!"

I hurriedly leaned out to look, and saw the end of the winding path in the Imperial Garden. Miaoyan was standing there waving at me, and there was still someone standing beside her.

Nangong Lizhu!

When I saw it, my face changed suddenly. Before I could say anything, I got up and ran down.

But the road to the Imperial Garden was built in a curved way, so that everyone could walk a few more steps and enjoy the beautiful scenery in the garden, but at this time, I couldn't get to the place I wanted to go. I was angry. When I finally ran to them, the people were so anxious that they turned pale. Miaoyan ran over from her: "Mom!"

I grabbed her, dragged her behind, and then stared at Nangong Lizhu.

She stood there, her face was almost pale as I did, but it was much colder, as if that night, the ghostly shadow I saw in the night.

"What are you going to do?"

I said in a deep voice.

But she seemed to have not heard me, and she still stood there so lightly, her eyes always staring behind me, looking at Miaoyan who was leaning over her head.

At this time, Chang Qing and the others followed.

When they saw us like this, several people frowned, especially Liu Li, who led Pei Nianyun to stand at the end.

Chang Qing said: "What's going on?"

I frowned, but didn't know what to say. After all, it seems that the two sides are safe, but I have always been very nervous about Nangong Lizhu and her thoughts on Miaoyan.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Chang Qing raised her head and looked at her: "Concubine, what's going on?"

Nangong Lizhu blinked her eyes, and her long eyelashes flashed like dying butterfly wings. She looked at us with a blanket of death in her eyes: "I heard that the Empress brought the sisters from each palace to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers. She waited early in the morning, but she didn't send anyone to call her. I can only come here by myself."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chang Qing coughed lightly and said, "Today, I brought them to enjoy the flowers, but I didn't let all the sisters in the harem come, but I just brought a few princes and princesses. There were too many people, and it was noisy."

“So that’s how it is.”

She smiled faintly and looked dim: "It turns out that because I don't have children, I'm not among the invitations."

“…”

"Why is that Empress..."

The sentence she said before made us frown, but the last sentence made Chang Qing's face pale suddenly.

Neither she nor Chang Qing had children.

This time, the atmosphere suddenly became very stiff.

I frowned and said coldly: "The Empress is the lord of the harem. Whether she has children or not, she should be in charge. Can't she take care of it?"

Her eyes turned cold, but she immediately laughed again: "You can control it, of course you can control it."

“…”

"But, how should I control it? Do I care who hurt Miaoyan?"

When I heard this, my face darkened. I hurriedly looked back at Miaoyan and asked her: "What's wrong with you? Did something happen to you just now?"

Miaoyan then raised her head and looked at me, shook her head inexplicably: "No."

"That--"

"This empress came over and took my hand."

“…”

"She kept holding my hand and looking at me."

As she said that, she turned her head to look at Nangong Lizhu again, and Nangong Lizhu's eyes were indeed falling on her, as if she had led a line.

I felt uncomfortable being crawled by a toad, and then I reached out and pulled Miaoyan behind me.

Chang Qing sighed and said, "Concubine, since you are here, let's sit together."

As soon as Miaoyan was blocked by me, she seemed to have lost her target, her eyes became a little confused, she slowly raised her head, looked at us, and smiled faintly: "No, since I am taking the prince and the princess out for fun today, I won't join in the fun."

After saying that, she couldn't even give a favor, so she turned around and left.

We were standing here, a little silent for a moment. After a while, Miaoyan poked his head out from behind and looked up at me: "Mom, what's wrong?"

I reluctantly said, "It's okay."

Chang Qing also said, "Since it's okay, then go back."

Judging from her appearance, Nangong Lizhu's words had probably hurt her a lot just now, and she didn't even feel like she was going back to sit and enjoy the flowers. Everyone couldn't say anything, so they could only part. However, when they walked back to Yihua Palace, Liu Li and I were walking along the way. Just as she was about to split the way, she suddenly said, "I think you should be careful of the imperial concubine."

I looked up at her.

"Do you remember what I said to you before?"

"……Remember."

She said that the imperial concubine might have to attack me, or rather, to Miaoyan.

Not long after that, Nangong Jinhong found the letter from my room. Regardless of whether Nangong Lizhu knew about it or not, no matter what the end resulted in that letter was, I knew very well that if I could not clear my suspicion, it was very likely that I had been sentenced to prison by some extremely serious crimes, and my wonderful words must have been adopted by a concubine.

Today, she said this to me again.

I took a deep breath: "I know, I'll be careful."

Hepin said, "What I said this time is different from what I said last time."

"Hmm?" I was stunned and looked at her with wide eyes.

In addition to being cold and indifferent, her eyebrows and eyes were also covered with a layer of gloom. After a while, she leaned into my ear and said, "I always feel that the imperial concubine looks wrong, just like a demon."

“…”

"There is never a shortage of such things or such people in this palace."

“…”

"You have more snacks. I always feel that she is about your daughter--"

She didn't finish this sentence, but I already understood it completely.

Just as Pei Yuanhao said before, everyone will inevitably have obsessions in their hearts. If they cannot get them, they are the easiest to make people crazy and lose their direction. If they cannot break their attachments, people will fall into such inner demons and become obstructed by demons.
