Chapter 5

 "Empress." As soon as Ah Shang saw me come out, she leaned forward.

  I glanced at the trembling figure in front of the hall and deliberately ignored it, sitting down on the soft couch with Ah Shang's help. Slowly and methodically sipping the fragrant tea handed over by the palace staff, I scanned the bright palace lights under the eaves and asked, "What time is it now?"

  A Shuang answered: "Back to the Empress Dowager, now the time will be over."

  I nodded, that Fan Changshui had been kneeling for four or five hours from the afternoon until now. I can't help but hook up the corner of my lips and lift upwards, "Who is kneeling in front of the temple na!" I asked.

  That party has long been looking forward to my salvation, as soon as I heard me open the mouth to ask, busy holding up both palms across the threshold of the temple, a few steps on his knees to climb to the temple, respectfully responded: "Report back to the Empress Dowager, the slave is the Huayang Palace to serve the king of the Fan Yan."

  "Oh ..." I purposely elongated my voice, lowered my eyes and pretended to be confused, "Why is Standing Servant Fan kneeling in front of my Ganquan Palace, but there is something difficult for this palace to make a decision for you."

  He was called by me, this moment to listen to me like this, it is really difficult, squeaked and did not know what to say, "slave, slave ...".

  After holding back half a day, Fan Changsheng finally held back a sentence to let himself down to the stage words: "Slaves are here to give the Empress Dowager your greetings."

  "Well, Fan Changsheng has the heart, don't kneel again, get up!" I responded very cheerfully, waving my hand to dispense with his kneeling.

  "Thank you Empress Dowager, thank you Empress Dowager." He was busy saying thank you, probably greeting Mi Bazi's ancestors in his heart. When he stood up, it was obviously very difficult, his legs were shaky, probably because he had been kneeling for a long time.

  "Rong ... Rong King." Fan Changshi trembling called out, like saw a ghost like again sit down to the ground.

  Yi even did not even look at Fan Changsheng a glance, walked straight to my front, commanded the side of the A Shuang, "go prepare some food to, this day did not eat, this king is hungry."

  I smiled lightly, followed by promised sentence: "again will this palace collection of Xilu fetch, tonight this palace to treat the king of rong." In the middle of the conversation, the two of us had already passed the ambiguous feelings between our eyes. The only thing that scared the uneasy Standing Minister Fan was that his entire face turned pale and white.

  "Eh ah, why is this standing attendant still here! How can this be." I was in a difficult situation and turned to Ei inquiringly.

  Yi inclined his head in a serious thinking manner, and thought for a long time before asking Ah Shang, "What was done with that courtesan who trespassed on Ganquan Palace last time."

  Ah Shang was very calm and said, "Back to King Rong, but anyone who steps into Ganquan without the Empress Dowager's permission will be sentenced to 50 years' imprisonment, and the heaviest punishment will be the removal of both legs and expulsion from the palace. The last time that the palace man for breaking into the empress dowager's bedchamber, saw should not see, so, the court guards have gouged out his eyes, in order to avoid its nonsense, his tongue will also be removed."

  Fan Changshi on the side listening to the cold sweat like rain, shaking his head like a dial wave, clenching his teeth to make himself not to scream out in fear. After Ah Shuang finished speaking, Yi Shuang and I both turned our attention to Standing Attendant Fan, and I accidentally played the role of a savior, "Ya, this Standing Attendant can serve beside Ji'er, what can we do about this, this palace sees that he didn't intend to intrude into Ganquan Palace, and tonight's events, the Great King will definitely not know about it. What do you think? Standing Minister Fan."

  Yi suddenly restrained his smile, his voice sternly said, "No, the entire Xianyang Palace palace slaves are all chewing their tongues behind their backs, this king has never cared about these, but the empress dowager's honor and integrity is not the same. Being a lackey since to keep their own part, empty long mouth, if you only know in this imperial city to talk about things, might as well let this mouth can never open mouth." Bitter eyes shot towards Fan Changshi.

  And at this time, Fan Changshou has long been kneeling on the ground kowtowing repeatedly, exclaiming, "Empress Dowager forgive me, Rong Wang forgive me, slave know wrong, beg Empress Dowager to be enlightened, Rong Wang to be enlightened ..."

  I pursed my lips, couldn't squeeze out half a trace of pity, "Seeing that you are serving the great king's share, it will be punished with a small punishment of the court battle, you can have an opinion."

  How dare he say a single word of no, even if I say that I chopped off a pair of his legs, he still has to kowtow and thank me for my great grace. "Thank you Empress Dowager for your kindness, thank you King Rong for your kindness, I will certainly honor my duties and serve the King in the future to repay the Empress Dowager and King Rong for their great kindness."

  After Standing Minister Fan thanked me for the favor of rewarding him with a court battle, he was pulled out by two court guards.

  "Mi'er."

  "Uh-huh." The cups clinked lightly, and I tilted my head back and drank the contents.

  Yi, however, was playing with the cup with great interest, not rushing to drink this pot of fine wine that had been treasured for several years. When he saw me looking at him, he put down the cup again and reached out to pull me into his arms.

  He gently rubbed my cheek and said thoughtfully, "Do you think a lackey can influence Ying Ji? Seeing how he's greedy for life and afraid of death, he doesn't see anything outstanding about him."

  I laughed, "A lackey is just a thread. The one who really controls Ying Ji is the one who pulls the thread." I said, reaching for the wine cup resting on the case, and then drank it all in one gulp, and exhaled with a sense of relief, "Such a good time, beautiful scenery, and such a fine wine, do you really don't want to drink it." I held up the empty cup to his lips to go, talking has a few points of drunkenness.

  Yi laughed and snatched the wine cup from my hand and threw it aside, leaned down and licked the wine that overflowed on the corner of my lips, and nodded quite seriously between tastes, "Well, it's indeed a beautiful wine, a good time and a beautiful wine with a beautiful person."

  "Pfft ..." I can't help but giggle.

  Yi also laughed, wrapped in my shoulder hand can't stop rubbing back and forth, "what are you laughing at."

  "I laugh, there is a good time, there is wine, but no beauty. Yi, I'm not the son of Yun Ying who is two or eight years old now, I've ...唔... "我还未说完的话就被夷堵住了口, I know that he doesn't like to hear me say that I'm older than he is, although my actual age is younger than Yi's by Although my actual age is eight years younger than Yi, Mi Ba Zi's age is almost eight years older than Yi.

  Yi's brow furrowed as he let go of me, and even his tone of voice was tinged with a pout, "Don't ever say something like that again, in my heart, you'll always be the most beautiful."

  I begged for a smile, raised my hand to rub and stroke in his chest to smooth the air, softly promised, "do not say do not say, will not say."

  Yi finally was not really angry with me, so he relaxed his eyebrows, and with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he picked up my hand and brought it to his lips and kissed it, "Mi'er, since Ying Ji is back, why don't we take advantage of the end of the summer to go to Mt. Li to spend a couple of days at leisure."

  I inclined my head in thought and shook my head in disapproval, "No good, now that Ying Ji has just returned to the court, I can't let others teach me a lesson."

  "What do you want? Can't you kill Gan Mao, he's been a prime minister for three dynasties. Unless assassinated, in the open ...," Yi Jingzhi analyzed.

  "No." I but denied Yi's speculation, positive color: "Gan Mao although for the left prime minister, but he is ultimately only a detained minister, although Ying Ji has much trust in him, that is only built on the basis of the first two dynasties, even if Gan Mao Wenzhi martial arts are too good, but after all, he is not his own people."

  Yi finally realized, "You mean Right Minister Simaroubaceae."

  I nodded, but Yi wrinkled his brows uncomfortably and sneered, "This old undead thing."

    

Even though we disposed of Fan Changshi today, the rumors in the palace will die down. But this clearly tells Simarouboubaceae that the two of us definitely have more than just a leg up."

  "Pff..." Yi suddenly giggled out, which caused me to be a bit stunned and look at him dumbfounded, "What are you laughing at." I think this is a very serious issue, he can actually laugh out.

  Yi was even more ambiguous as he laughed, "Mi'er, there's more than just a leg between us." While I was still in a daze, his other hand had already taken the opportunity to slide into the hem of the open palace garment, rubbing back and forth between my legs through the ice gauze bottoms.

  I was embarrassed, sank my face, slapped away Yi's hand, and raised my face, "I'm talking to you about business."

  Yi was able to play innocent, "I'm not messing with you either." As he said that he was already tickling me up and down.

  "Eh, razor, huh ... don't make fun of ... haha ..." I almost laugh at the fork in the road, lying in his lap even Climb up the strength are not, hiding this side, that side and was tickled non-stop, often left and right can not be taken care of. And razor himself is happy in the middle of it, in vain to provoke me like a fish out of water, lying in his lap jumping a not.

  Waiting for razor to make enough noise, I busy climbed up to the side to sit, picked up the wine pot to pour a cup, drink, slightly eased the excitement, but the cheeks are let me laugh at the sour. I can not help but take the eyes glared at the side of the razor, he Xing to not defeated, hands back propped up the body, looking at me in the eyes of the laughter, simply ignored my angry eyes.

  "Mi'er, such a beautiful day, why don't we put aside those annoying things first, how about you dance a song for me." Yi came to my side and snatched down the wine cup I had brought to my lips, "If you drink any more, you'll get drunk." Yi knew that I was shallow and uninviting, and if I was alone I would often drink myself down.

  Licking my lips, I looked at the jug of wine which was taken away by Yi, pouting my lips, very dissatisfied, "No, it's rare that I'm in high spirits tonight, so just let me have another sip!" I think I'm getting drunk because I'm already pouting at Ezra, something that would have never happened before.

  Ignoring whether or not I would be slandered to death by this missing sip, Yi went so far as to help me up from the ground, "I will strike music for you, and you will dance for me." He helped me towards the terrace outside the temple.

  My footsteps had begun to float, and the hands holding onto Yi were leaning towards him with all their strength. But with this enticement/enticement from him, I couldn't help but want to dance again.

  Simply because Yi's percussive technique is different from the entire court musicians, and even different from the trend of instrumental music in this period, he will only show one or two in front of me when his heart is in the right place, but in front of people, he will never show half of it.

  There were many instruments on the terrace, and even chimes could be seen.

  I stand in the center of the stage some can not tell east from west and south from north, staggering under the feet to make the body crooked, Yi has already in front of the bronze drums sit on the ground, the size of the large several bronze drums is Yi specially transported from the Yue Di, but the sound of the strike out of the sound than the sound of chimes is also ten times better.

  Moonlight shallow sprinkled terrace, so I can clearly see Yi at this time serious expression, feet can not help but move up, raise the sleeves and sprinkle, dancing against the wind, with the sound of the music when the slow gathering. Silhouette under the light pull long silk, with Aman wonderful dance, it seems to fly in the clouds of the fairy. We looked at each other, Yi looked at me with a look of love and affection. I looked at Yi, and my eyes were filled with fascination.

  The long trailing palace clothes sometimes mixed feet, taking advantage of the wine, I even casually pulled the belt, let the open palace clothes on its own slipped down. Without restraints, hand holding a long silk belt, but also relaxed in the Yi gradual gathering of the rhythm of the spinning, spinning ... to be a long silk spread out, the whole person is also ambushed on the stage.

  Yi's soundtrack closed at the right time, the aftermath of music in the entire Ganquan Palace in the air, I am on the ground is motionless, my body has long been wet with sweat, and can even feel the drops of sweat on the eyelids of the drooping Hyun want to drip.

  Yi a few steps to run to my side to help me up from the ground, wiping the beads of sweat on my forehead, could not help but say, "Mi'er, too beautiful, you are really beautiful ..."

  I pulled the corners of my mouth, smiled, the night wind brushed by, holding on to the razor's arms on the bare arms a little cold, couldn't help but shiver, "razor, you struck the music equally beautiful, teach me can be good."

  Yi carefully rubbed my arms, leaned over and picked me up, full of promise: "Good, as long as you like."

  I wrapped the hand on the shoulders of Yi tightened, buried his head to his strong nest, blinked, but could not resist the tiredness, "Yi, I want to bathe ..." I moved my lips, but the voice is more and more low, and want to say something, but can not withstand the wine that surged to the head, drowsy! I moved my lips but my voice was getting lower and lower, and I wanted to say something, but I couldn't resist the wine that came to my head, and I was drowsy.
