I Just Want To Be Quiet

Into the night.

Ye Feng whimpered, dim and bewildered, and cold air diffused.

When the night crow on the branch screamed, occasionally one could hear the unbearable ticking sound of dewdrops.

The avenue surrounded by miscellaneous trees was already empty at this time, but it was not calm. The movement of foxes and rabbits and insects and snakes roamed endlessly.

"Tread, step, step..."

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps in the distance.

Perceiving people, the red fox flees, the gray rabbit runs away, the insects and snakes quickly return to the cave. In an instant, the road is empty, all kinds of strange noises are calm, and there is only one stone monument with the three characters "Goose Return Valley" inscribed, standing quietly .

The color of the starlight and moonlight is like frost, and it will soon be illuminated by a soft sedan chair on the avenue.

Carrying the sedan chair are four men dressed as servants. All four men are full of energy and blood. Their temples are high and bulging. When they look forward, their eyes are like torches. When they look carefully, their shoulders are much wider than ordinary people, their tiger's mouth is very thick, their cheeks, There are numerous scars on the sides of the neck.

The four people carried the sedan, started and landed at the same time, the soft sedan moved fast, motionless, and only one person's footsteps could be heard on the empty road.

On the side of the soft sedan chair, following an elderly man with a white face and a big belly, with long eyebrows, high nose and thin lips, wearing a half-old and not new green tunic, with a snow-white whisk on his arms. It seems obese and heavy, but the steps are surprisingly light, silent, and not surprised.

In the sedan chair, there is a young woman with golden hairpin in Chinese clothes, with willow eyebrows, starry eyes, white teeth and fresh lips, and a lily bun wearing a crest with a crested bird and a beaded crown. Phoenix peony myrobalan, light blue crepe double-breasted wide-sleeved blouse, golden pomegranate skirt, scarlet draped silk on the arms, ringlets on the neck, and golden hairpins on the wrists.

His eyes are flowing, and when he looks around and pans, he is full of beauty.

At the bottom, there is a maid in a blue shirt and green skirt.

This woman in Chinese clothes is the most beloved imperial concubine, named Ruan Xilu. He was born in a famous family and was proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and calligraphy since he was a child. As a result, he was elected to the palace, which made the emperor fall in love at first sight and loved him.

It's just that Ruan Xilu was arrogant and indulgent, and after entering the palace, he did not constrain in the slightest.

A few days ago, I even offended the queen mother.

The kingdom ruled the world with filial piety. Under the wrath of the queen dowager, the emperor could not directly pardon her. He could only ask the imperial concubine to leave the palace for the time being in the name of going to Muyan City to pray for the queen dowager to avoid the queen dowager’s punishment.

At the moment these four bearers are all Ouchi guards, and they are first-class masters.

In addition, the white-faced elderly man who was next to him was one of the most famous eunuchs in the palace, named Pang Chongdeng, with extraordinary talents and unpredictable martial arts. Although he was on the road now, his eyes closed slightly, his internal energy flowed naturally, his breath was reduced, and he felt like he was just an ordinary old man in the country, without any martial arts in him.

Pang Chongdeng's strength, even if you look at the whole arena, his opponents are one of the few.

Therefore, although there are only five entourages, it is enough to protect Concubine Ruan Gui.

At this time, Ruan Xilu leaned on her cheeks, leaning on the small table in the sedan chair, with her long eyelashes drooping, as if she was asleep.

Suddenly, the soft sedan stopped.

Ruan Xilu opened her eyes, her eyebrows frowned slightly, her expression of dissatisfaction appeared on her face.

The maid not far away immediately shouted coldly to the outside: "What's the matter to stop? Didn't you say that, keep going forward, don't stop until Muyancheng!"

"This night, without your mother's orders, who will allow you to rest?"

An inside guard said in a low voice: "Manny, the subordinates don't want to rest, but the road has become unfamiliar. Maybe they have gone the wrong way."

The maid glanced at the noble concubine's expression, and suddenly rebuked: "What do you all do? It's not easy for the lady to travel?"

"I delayed the empress to pray for the empress dowager, can you afford it!"

The guard whispered: "Subordinates are convicted."

"Niang Niang." At this time, Pang Dengchong, who was on the side of the soft sedan chair, spoke in harmony and said in Yuanchang. Known for its steepness."

"We are on the road again at night, but it is inevitable that we will make mistakes. We still hope Empress Haihan."

Ruan Xilu squinted slightly and glanced at the maid.

The maid immediately understood, and said in a slow tone: "Since it is a huge companion, then forget it this time."

"Next, I will use snacks."

"Don't forget, our lady is going to pray for the empress dowager on this trip."

Pang Dengchong nodded slightly: "Thank you, Niang Niang."

Then he ordered the guard, "Go back."

The guard secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said quickly: "Yes!"

Immediately afterwards, the soft sedan quickly turned its head, and then continued to move.

However, not long after walking, the sedan chair stopped again.

This time, without waiting for the noble concubine master and servant to ask questions, the guard said cautiously: "Noble concubine empress, the subordinates can't find the way just now."

There was silence for a while in the soft sedan chair, and the maid asked: "A huge companion?"

Pang Dengchong looked at the unfamiliar surroundings with a solemn expression, and shook his head slightly: "Niang Niang forgive me, our family doesn't know what's going on."

Hearing this, the car curtain was lifted, and the blue-shirted maid walked out of it and looked at the surrounding environment.

She didn’t recognize the way the geese go back to the valley, but now it’s night again, with mountains, rivers and trees mixed together, covered in the gleam of cold stars and moons. The eyes flickered in the night, like a ghost, fleeting.

In such a situation, he should leave quickly, but the team took the wrong path twice in a row, and suddenly said angrily: "Isn't you waiting on purpose? I didn't want the empress to pray for the empress dowager, right?!"

The four guards did not dare to come out, and they all fell silent.

At this moment, Ruan Xilu in the sedan lifted up her hand, looked at her scarlet fingertips repeatedly smudged with impatiens juice, and said softly, "Xiao Dan, don't talk about it."

"Pang Dabang's words are reasonable, the terrain here is complicated, and Kuiye is on the way, making mistakes is inevitable."

"But you can't blame these guards."

"In this way, you send two people around to explore the situation and leave marks along the way."

"If you meet someone, just ask for directions."

The guard hurriedly said: "Yes!"

The maid Xiao Dan glanced at them coldly, flashed back to the sedan chair, and slammed down the sedan curtain.

Ruan Xilu sighed faintly, and said, "What's the fate of this palace? It's just that you are not eloquent enough. If you say something that makes the Queen Mother misunderstood, you will suffer this crime... I knew this trip was so rough. Go ahead and decide on your own."

"Don’t be like this for the empress. The empress has a pure heart, kindness and generosity, and the empress dowager is also blinded..." Xiaodan immediately comforted, "Besides, your Majesty treats you like a pearl, if you have a mistake, but teach your majesty what to do ?"

Then he said, "It's just that these guards are too incompetent at the moment, so you are tired and you will be delayed here."

"When they find the right path, we will be able to reach Twilight Rock soon."

Ruan Xilu lowered her eyes and nodded slightly, but she was cold in her heart: Looking for a way? She cursed the queen mother to death on the spot and it was too late. Where did she feel the mood to rush to Muyan City as soon as possible to pray for her?

The reason for sending the guard to find the way is to see if the people under the queen dowager will take this opportunity to kill them.

At that time, he could use the life of the guard to cry out grievances and dangers to the emperor.

With the emperor's love for her, he will definitely complain about the Queen Mother by then... Well, just such a thing may not be enough to make the emperor turn his face with the Queen Mother for her.

But it's okay, this is just the beginning. After a little provocation, sooner or later, she will let the old lady of the queen mother go to the cold palace, and life is better than death!

The harem of the Kingdom, the only mistress, can only be her Ruan Xilu!

Although these four guards, together with Pang Chongdeng, were the emperor's most loyal henchmen, once they died, it would be a big loss to the emperor. However, isn't the Eagle Dog used at this time?

As long as Pang Chongdeng is alive, enough to protect her safety.

For the other four guards, just die one, and it’s best to die all of them.

Thinking of this, Ruan Xilu leaned back comfortably, waiting patiently for the bad news.

However, after waiting for a while, the guard sent out to explore the way has not returned.
