Gu Yinwei, who was bending over to pick up buttons from the flower bed, accidentally heard a shocking secret.
The Queen Mother was so foolish that she threw away the bright pearl for a smelly fish eye.
Gu Yinwei came out of the imperial study, and the tabby cat ran towards her with its short legs, "Meow."
The belly of the tabby cat is round and weighs at least three or four pounds. When the tabby cat is born, it is only the size of a fist, but it grows so big in a blink of an eye.
Gu Yinwei reached out and touched its head, and the kitten meowed.
Wei Junzhai was waving a fan and walking in a square step with a graceful posture.
"Hurry up and give me a thunder and fire talisman to kill this old witch."
"Do you think drawing the Thunder Flame Talisman is easy? Who will make up for the luck I lost?"
"If you kill her, won't her luck belong to you?"
Gu Yinwei didn't fall for it and turned around and left.
"You are dishonest. I will not cooperate with you."
"How am I dishonest? I'm working with you to help you earn lifespan. How can I harm you?"
"Killing the Queen Mother will definitely backfire, otherwise why don't you do it yourself?"
Wei Junzhai gritted his teeth and said, "I would like to do it myself, but as an outsider, I have no chance to get close to the Queen Mother."
Gu Yinwei still didn't believe it and turned away.
The Empress Dowager was ruthless, but the Emperor was not such a ruthless person. According to Gu Yinwei's speculation, he expected that the Emperor would leave the palace before the Empress Dowager left the palace.
Gu Yinwei picked a rose casually and cast a spell on it. After the flower fell to the ground, it turned into a dummy. Her family members looked exactly like her, except that they looked a little silly.
"You go back to the Pepper Palace and take my place in the harem. You are not allowed to talk nonsense, walk around, or go near the flames."
"Yes, Master."
The dummy transformed from the rose staggered back. When Concubine Yi greeted her, the dummy covered her mouth and ran away quickly.
After dark, two people came out of the imperial study. Gu Yinwei followed them quietly. They went to the stable to get the horses. Gu Yinwei stretched out her hand to the man on horseback, "I'm going too."
"Gu Gengyi, go back quickly."
"If you don't let me go, I'll shout." Gu Yinwei pretended to be a rogue.
Zhu Dunyi extended his hand to her, and the two of them rode together.
A man carrying a bag followed behind him, "Your Majesty, wait for me."
In order to catch up with the emperor as quickly as possible, Wei Junzhai picked a horse at random.
The horse started out running very fast, but gradually it ran slower and slower. "It's dark and I'm blind, so I chose you, an old horse."
After leaving the palace, the three of them headed straight for the outskirts of Beijing. Street vendors were packing up their stalls, and pedestrians were filling their backpacks with goods they had bought at the market.
Shops on both sides of the street gradually hung up lanterns, and the lights were as bright as daylight. Outside the city gate, the lights gradually dimmed.
Zhu Dunyi helped Gu Yinwei get off the horse. A group of people had been waiting for a long time. The emperor led Gu Yinwei to change to a carriage. Fugui did not get off the horse, and it seemed that he planned to travel overnight.
Not long after the three of them met up with the incoming troops, Fugui suddenly shouted, "Who's sneaking around? Come out!"
Fugui was good at archery and had excellent hearing. He took out the bow and arrow from behind him and aimed at the grass in the north.
Wei Junzhai had two blades of grass on his head and crawled out of the bushes in a panic.
Gu Yinwei wanted to lift the curtain to look out, but Zhu Dunyi shielded her face with his hands, "Be careful of hidden weapons."
"No hidden weapons, we are one people, one people." Wei Junzhai's tone sounded like he deserved a beating.
"Why is the Imperial Master crawling like a dog?" Gu Yinwei's words seemed concerned, but were actually full of ridicule.
Wei Junzhai rolled his eyes quietly. Why am I crawling like a dog? It’s because the horse I chose can’t run fast. Gu Yinwei is a half-immortal. He doesn’t believe that Gu Yinwei didn’t hear him when he chased her desperately and shouted at her desperately.
"I came here to protect you and accidentally fell."
"Fugui, quickly support the Imperial Master. He is so loyal that he cannot be easily broken."
Fugui helped him up while nagging: "Master, your loyalty is intact, but your fan is broken."
"My ivory fan."
Seeing his distress, Zhu Dunyi promised, "When we return to the palace, I will give you a new fan."
"Good, good, Your Majesty is wise."
"Stop, stop flattering me, and rush to Cangyun Villa."
Zhu Dunyi saw Gu Yinwei's serious expression and said, "There are 5,000 imperial guards stationed at Cangyun Villa. You will be escorted by them all the way to Dongzhou. Don't worry, I will accompany you through all the mountains and rivers.
"I trust you."
The carriage moved quickly, and Gu Yinwei lifted the curtain and opened it, "Master, the stars outside the palace are brighter than the night pearls in the palace."
“The stars outside the palace are far freer than the stars inside.”
"Master, I will often accompany you out of the palace to watch the stars in the future."
"The days when I can leave the palace are very few. If you like, I can issue you a leave token."
Gu Yinwei placed a pillow behind Zhu Dunyi, and Zhu Dunyi leaned against the soft pillow, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The stars in the sky, the people before us, travel together eastward.
Yang Tan, the owner of Cangyun Villa, had once received favors from the late emperor. Fourteen years ago, his wife passed away after giving birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Yang Tan raised the two children alone.
At the foot of Cangyun Mountain.
Yang Tan came in person with his daughter Yang Suyin to greet them, but Yang Qiaoxi arrived late.
"Dad, why are you calling me to get up so late at night?"
"A distinguished guest is coming, so don't neglect him."
"What kind of distinguished guest is visiting? Dad, sister, why are you both silent? Could it be the Imperial Master? Or perhaps a prince?"
"Brother, be more steady and don't let the distinguished guests see the joke of Cangyun Villa."
"What a joke! Who dares to laugh at our Cangyun Villa? Have you seen this plaque? It was written by the late emperor himself."
