Chapter 175 Li Palace 1
At this time, it was already the third quarter of the hour, and it was only one hour away from the time agreed upon by Jingsu and Chu Xiao.
Chong Mo still stubbornly stayed in Furong Palace, his eyes seeming to linger on Jing Su, feeling nostalgic and uneasy.
Jingsu smiled bitterly, but he slowly calmed down in his heart. The round fingertips like onions, the full nails, and the faint red smeared with impatiens juice were hidden in the wide sleeves, faintly twisting.
The sun sets in the west, and the yellowish afterglow shines in through the window. There is no temperature, and there is a slightly weird atmosphere, which is so quiet that it is shocking.
Man Sheng's voice broke the silence, "Your Majesty, it's time to pass on dinner."
When Chong Mo Ruo woke up from his dream, he was stunned for a long time before he responded.
There was still such a sumptuous table of dishes, a jug of mellow wine, and everyone ate quietly.
When it was almost used and half an hour had passed, someone naturally came in to clean it up.
Jingsu stood up and poured a cup of tea for Chong Mo himself, "Your Majesty, take a sip of tea to get rid of the smell." Her squinting eyes looked straight at him, rippling in the water.
Chong Mo took it with a smile, took a sip and put it down.
Jingsu also sat down on the soft couch, lowering his eyes and thinking about something.
The candlelight was warm, illuminating her graceful side face. A string of agate jade tassels hung on her temples, making her skin even more creamy, smooth and delicate. Her hanging eyelashes were as long as butterfly wings. It was obviously like this.
How could such a delicate and beautiful person have so much courage to dare to disobey him again and again.
Chong Mo also found it incredible.
Jingsu never raised his head.
Slowly, the dancing candlelight became hazy, and even she... became hazy, and a deep sleepiness came over her.
"I, what happened?"
He frowned and reached out to rub his temples.
As if he suddenly understood something, he suddenly raised his head and looked at her.
Jingsu finally turned his head, his starry eyes sparkling, showing a feeling of farewell.
Oops, she's running away!
Such was Chong Mo's last thought, and then his eyelids became heavier and heavier. Finally, his head dropped, his body went limp, and he fainted.
Jingsu suddenly became nervous and whispered several times, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty," seeing that he didn't respond, he felt relieved, got off the bed, helped him lie down, and took out a brocade quilt to cover him
.Taking a deep breath, calming down his emotions, he called outside, "Li Mo, come in with a brocade box."
"Hey," Li Mo agreed, and soon came in holding a dark red brocade box. The door closed behind him, and Li Mo quickly whispered, "Your Majesty," he put the brocade box on the table and quickly opened it.
, inside was a eunuch's uniform.
"You did a great job."
Time was running out. Jingsu thought for a moment, quickly took off her coat, put on the eunuch's blue robe, and then put on her coat. She had lost weight recently, and the coat looked a little empty on her body, even though there was a lot inside.
Even wearing a robe does not look bulky.
She looked left and right and saw that there was no problem, so she quickly asked Li Mo to go to the cupboard to take out the bundle she had packed and stuff it into the brocade box.
Li Moyi complied with the request. She just thought that the empress had finally figured it out and wanted to escape from the palace. She felt sour in her heart, but she suppressed it and refused to show it. The empress was in pain. She knew that at this time,
She must not drag down the empress.
"Li Mo, you have to take care of yourself." Jingsu also said with some reluctance.
"Don't worry, Madam," Li Mo held back tears.
"Yeah," Jingsu nodded, whispered a few words, and finally nodded.
The bedroom door opened, and the master and servant walked out one after the other.
Mansheng and Yaoxi were busy bowing their bodies, and they heard Jingsu's calm and majestic voice above their heads, "Your Majesty is busy with state affairs, and your body is tired. You are sleeping now. You are not allowed to come in and disturb me.
I’m going to the Queen’s Palace and will be back soon.”
"Yes, I understand." The two responded.
Jingsu then took Li Mo away.
Watching the two of them walk away, Yao Xi frowned, always feeling that this thing seemed a bit weird. Li Mo held a huge brocade box, and the empress's figure seemed a bit weird, not to mention that the empress rarely set foot in the Peony Palace, why is it like this?
Going to a meeting suddenly?
It's strange now.
Man Sheng didn't think much about it. Recently, the emperor had been worried a lot, his body was thin, and he couldn't sleep well at night. After all, it was Concubine Li who had a way to make the emperor sleep peacefully. It was very good, very good.
Neither of them entered the palace to take a look.
On the other side, Jingsu led Li Mo as he walked westward through the night. His steps seemed steady, but in fact they were hurried.
Seeing no one at the west corner gate from a distance, Jingsu was a little anxious. Seeing that the agreed time was almost here, maybe Chu Xiao had something to do and couldn't get away, or maybe he had changed his mind. But he didn't know the truth.
She looked back and forth and saw no one, so she and Li Mo went to the hidden area of the door wall and stood there, waiting anxiously.
Time passed little by little, and soon after three quarters of Xu, Chu Xiao still did not appear.
Jingsu thought about what he said and asked her to go back immediately if he didn't show up.
Could it be that the emperor had already understood his thoughts and trapped him?
Thinking about it this way, I feel regretful.
"Empress, who are you waiting for?" Li Mo held his breath for a long time, and gradually became anxious.
Jingsu nodded and looked around again. Although she was unwilling to do so, she had no choice but to do so. Without Chu Xiao's help, she was determined not to leave the palace. It seemed that she could only give up temporarily.
I was thinking of going back first.
With a "thud", Li Mo, who was standing behind her, slowly fell to the ground. The brocade box fell to the ground, and a bundle rolled out.
"Who?" Jingsu shouted.
A person came out from behind the wall. He was wearing crescent-white clothes and a handsome face. It was Chu Xiao. He looked at Jingsu with a half-smile but not a smile, "Concubine Li is indeed very capable." The emperor went to Furong Palace early in the morning and did not come out. Unexpectedly,
She actually had the ability to escape from under the emperor's nose.
Jingsu pretended not to understand the sarcasm in his words and hurried to see Li Mo, "Don't worry, Madam, she just fainted. This way, it won't be too difficult for her to explain herself in front of the Emperor."
Jingsu felt reassured and immediately took out the boots from the brocade box and scattered her hair.
Chu Xiao looked at her silently and threw a piece of clothing to her, "Wear this." Then turned around.
It was a set of men's robes. Jingsu took it, took off the robe and put it on directly. He also changed into embroidered shoes. His black hair was like a waterfall. He tied a few strands on his head and tied it with brocade. He quickly packed up the clothes he had changed.
He stuffed the ornaments back into the brocade box, picked up the bag and slung it over his body.
"Okay, let's leave quickly."
"Yeah," Chu Xiao responded, taking the lead and walking forward.
Jingsu followed his footsteps and met a patrolling guard on the road. Seeing that it was Chu Xiao, he did not dare to stop him. However, Chu Xiao was walking very fast and suddenly stopped.
Jingsu was caught off guard and almost bumped into his back. When she raised her head, she saw him turning around in annoyance, looking at her with a frown, and suddenly said, "I'm sorry," and he stretched out his arms to hug her waist, boosting his strength, and straight away
In the palace, he used Qinggong to leap forward.
