Hor palace: Jinzhi Yulu

Chapter 112 Picking Flowers and Getting Lost

The two walked hand in hand out of the Yuemei Palace and walked towards the place where today's concubines gathered. Along the way, they could only smell the strong fragrance of flowers in the imperial garden.

Although this is a difficult time to overcome the summer heat, the back mountain of the hunting ground to go to today is a different scene. The valley breeze blows slowly, birds and fish leap, and the mountain with the sun on its back makes the whole mountain shrouded in a cool atmosphere, which is a summer resort.

When the queen arrived at the imperial garden, the queen saw that everyone had arrived, only Yao Yulu and Xu Cairen. Yao Yulu was shocked. So many concubines higher than her were waiting for her, but in fact, she was afraid of being embarrassed.

She looked up and took a slight look. Today, Yufei did not attend, and unexpectedly, Xiao Shufei was not among the concubines. It seemed that what happened last time really hit her. I heard that although the emperor had visited her recently, she had not stayed with Xiao Shufei for a long time. I'm afraid that the emperor's anger had not subsided. She doesn't want to listen to the ridiculs among the concubines to have a future.

"Let's all wait here. Yao promised and Xu Cairen are probably not polite, right?" Jinfei's tricky voice suddenly sounded, and Yao Yulu looked up slightly. Sure enough, Jinfei was raising her thin eyebrows.

Before Yao Yulu could speak, he heard the queen say, "Xu Cai is pregnant. I'm afraid it's because of some delay, but why did Yao agree?"

"Concubine..." Yao Yulu couldn't say it for a moment, but muttered.

"When I returned to the queen, Sister Yao just brought some cool and soothing medicine for my concubine. She was afraid that my concubine would get heatstroke today, so she delayed her time." Xu Cairen suddenly said with an idea.

The queen nodded with a dignified smile, and Concubine Jin didn't say anything more. She only heard the queen say, "Today, I took my sisters to the mountain behind the hunting ground to pick hundreds of grass, and then returned to the palace to hold a grass fighting party. I was afraid that the sisters would be bored in the public for a long time. Now it's too late. Let's go."

After saying that, the queen heard the inner supervisors say hello in a shrill voice. Yao Yulu, Xu Cairen and Ji Shuidong got on the same sedan chair. The maids of honor followed the sedan chair, and a vast team left the palace in this way.

This was the first time Yao Yulu went out of the palace after entering the palace. She slowly lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and looked at the scenery outside the window, which was no longer surrounded by high walls. She thought that she had left the palace. The sedan chair walked slowly and steadily, but she could take a good look at the scenery outside the window.

Outside the sedan chair is another world. The sky does not seem to be seen in the palace. There is only such a square piece. Looking around, it is even more vast. You really can't see the border. Occasionally, there is a farmer's cooking smoke in the distance. You can see the figure jumping between the grass, and I don't know which side the grasshopper is unsteady. The ground is restless. The grass on the roadside is with small white pink flowers. It can't be seen that the species is not expensive, but the clustered in a ball is no less than the famous flowers in the imperial garden.

Yao Yulu took a deep breath and felt that the air was more sweet outside the palace. Looking at Ji Shuidong and Xu Cairen also hurriedly looked at the scenery outside the window and missed it far away.

"After a while, Ning'er will wait for the two sisters in the resting place in the back mountain and can't go together." Xu Cairen said unhappily.

"Sister Ning, don't be upset. Shuidong and I will definitely find more beautiful flowers for you." Yao Yulu held Xu Cairen's hand and comforted him.

"Well, what my sister said is that Sister Ning is accompanied by palace people in the resting place. Playing some games will pass the time." Seasonal winter road.

"That's all, and the queen is there. I can't let go. It's better to sit regularly and breathe the air outside the palace." Xu Cairen lamented.

Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong looked at each other and smiled. Before saying more, the sedan chair slowly walked through many roads. About half an hour later, they finally arrived at the back mountain of the hunting ground.

Everyone got off the sedan chair with the help of the internal prison, but this sedan chair saw a different beautiful scenery in front of them. The back mountain was full of green colors. The grass in the distance seemed to be full of colorful flowers, and the air was much fresher than the side, all soaked with the smell of grass.

The place where the sedan chair stops is the place where the palace concubines rest today. Now it seems that a long roof has been set up, with a comfortable wooden chair in the middle. It is intended for the queen. There are iced watermelons, iced sour plum tea and so on the table in front of them, which are all good things to relieve the summer heat.

The queen was helped to the main seat by the maid of honor. After sitting upright, she said, "Today, the sisters don't have to be confined to this rest place. Let's go to the back mountain, but don't go far away. If you are tired, come to drink some sour plum tea and eat some watermelon. Be careful of the heat."

Everyone was blessed and dispersed.

"Xu Cairen, come on, sit in front of me. Let's talk about ourselves." The queen greeted Xu Cairen affectionately. Xu Cairen looked back at Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong and went to the queen.

"Looking at Sister Ning's reluctant appearance, I really can't let go of us." Ji Shuidong said with a smile.

"Where can't we be let go? I'm afraid we can't let go of the beautiful scenery of the back mountain." Yao Yulu smiled more happily.

Yao Yulu looked into the distance and were all in groups. Many palace people gathered among the favored concubines. Ji Shuidong was also found by several concubines, but he didn't like to leave Yao Yulu alone, so he refused.

"Look at how lively they are, why do you stay here alone with me?" Yao Yulu looked at the crowd in the distance and said.

"That's all. I'm also saying some compliments with them. Today, I finally have a chance to go out of the palace to relax. I don't want to add obstacles to myself." Ji Shuidong said.

Yao Yulu said helplessly, "You are also the same as Sister Ning, and you are a child."

"It's a joy that Shuidong can steal a moment of leisure from my sister." Ji Shuidong said with a smile.

"Why don't we go in that direction? I think it's quieter." Yao Yulu pointed to a sparsely populated place and said.

Ji Shuidong nodded, and the two walked all the way this way.

In a short time, the bamboo basket held by the two picked all kinds of flowers, including acacia flowers, Jiulixiang, oleander peach, Hibcus, Fusang, five-colored plum, golden peach, etc.

The deeper you go, the more you have never seen. The two are in high interest. Unconsciously, the flowers in the bamboo basket are already a small half basket, but they go further and further away, and the sun will come out.

The place where the two are at this moment is in a secluded valley. It seems that it is no longer like the back mountain of the hunting ground. There is a long stream flowing through the valley. The place where they come is a dense forest, but there is no way to see it. There is a sparse grassland in the distance, but it seems that it has been It is no more the scope of the hunting ground.

"There is a hole in this place, but I don't know where it is..." Yao Yulu said softly, looking at the strange scenery, she couldn't finish her words.

"This... Sister, aren't we lost?" Ji Shuidong asked in shock.

"I'm afraid I've left the hunting ground." Yao Yulu slowly looked at Ji Shuidong, and her voice was also a little cowardly.

"How about going back to the same road? It's getting late." Ji Shuidong said.

The original road? You look back behind you." Yao Yulu said slowly and slowly pulled Ji Shuidong's body.

Ji Shuidong looked back and couldn't help stepping back a few steps. It was a dense and tall forest. The tall trees pointed straight to the sky. They were so dense that they could no longer see the sky in the forest. They only cared about the scenery under their feet all the way, but they didn't know that they had come to such a place. If it was smooth Returning the same way, I'm afraid that I will only get lost in this deep forest.

"Sister, what should I do?" Ji Shuidong's voice has brought some crying tones. Although it's not too late now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of this damn place when it's time to gather.

"Water winter, I can't think of a way for a moment. It's my fault that I only care about picking flowers all the way and don't see that I have come so far."

"Don't say that, sister, you'd better think about what to do quickly. If you are trapped here, you will be punished even if you go back." Ji Shuidong said, becoming more and more anxious.

"Let's calm down first. The more we are so panicked, the more we are afraid that we can't do it." Yao Yulu took Ji Shuidong's hand and comforted him.

Ji Shuidong's eyes were already filled with a few tears and muttered.

The two stood silently. Yao Yulu was hollowing out her mind at this moment, but she was also a young lady living in the house. She had never encountered such a thing, and she didn't know what to do at this moment.

The noon sun has been shining high above my head. It seems that it will soon be time to gather. Ji Shuidong is already sobbing with fear at this moment.

"Don't cry, this is not the way." Yao Yulu advised.

"That sister said what to do. We are already trapped in this damn place. We can't wait, and we can't go back." Ji Shuidong said anxiously, and his words were already ambiguous.

The noon sun made them unable to open their eyes, and suddenly they heard the faint sound of horses' hoofs in the distance.

Both of them looked at each other in shock, and their eyes were full of panic. Who knows who is the owner of the horse's hoof?

"Sister, can you hear me?" Ji Shuidong trembled slightly with fear and asked.

Yao Yulu nodded and dared not speak loudly. She said carefully, "I heard it."

The sound of horses' hoofs was getting closer and closer, as if it was already in his ear. He faintly saw a white figure coming from the woods. Yao Yulu boldly looked at it. A white horse slowly came from the dense green forest, and the horse was dressed in a blue robe, which was the eighth prince Li Qingyu.

Yao Yulu and Ji Shuidong saw the figure of the Eighth Prince clearly and immediately smiled. Ji Shuidong was surprised and happy, "Sister, we are saved."
