Chapter 150 Return of Previous Emperor
Another rainy June—
The night in the Palace fell silently, and the red-walled city became hazy and misty under the moon with less majesty and solemnity during the day.
In the imperial study room, Emperor Jingxiao was busy before a desk. He was still in the imperial robe, projecting withered shadows under the candlelight.
How many lives were decided by remarks written in red by this man in the royal prerogative with his royal brush?
The candle flickered in the glaze lamp and shone through the gaps in the side window, casting a vague shadow of the exquisite carvings on the misty marble steps.
After reading the report, Emperor Jingxiao closed his eyes, rested his slightly arched back on the dragon chair, and rubbed at between his eyebrows with two fingers.
He had not slept well recently. When the morning assembly was over, he went to the Elixir Chamber of High Priest Yu Xuanji for medication, which did not wo

In the stone house—"I have prepared everything for you. We are about to depart. Now you tell me you don't want to go?" The masked man groaned angrily and chopped at Gu Yunxi. The fierce palm wind, with an irresistible murderous momentum, blew in Gu Yunxi's face.She stood still. Without evading, she even closed her eyes calmly.The next moment, that cold and pale hand stopped suddenly, only a few millimeters away from her face."Hah..."The clear Adam's apple rolling twice, the masked man let out a series of sullen and hoarse laughs.The voice was so frightening that anyone who listened to it would instantly feel a chill on his back, like a sharp ghost's claw scratching the skin of his spine.Behind the mask, two cold eyes stared at Gu Yunxi. He said to her appreciatively."You are indeed as sly as a fox, full of tricks. You deliberately provoked me to kill you, but

As soon as the manager shouted, a thug rushed over, bent Gu Yunxi's arms back, and pinned her to the ground."My lord, the rules of the capital have yet to be familiar to me. I hazard to ask you what my offense is, so I can know the reason for the penalty!"The thug clamped her neck, rubbing Gu Yunxi's soft cheek against the rough blue bricks. She struggled for an answer."How dare you question me? Speak the truth. Where did you get this flute? Did you steal it?"With the jade flute in his hand, the manager walked around the table to Gu Yunxi, panting with rage. Keeping his head up, he was nothing but an arrogant smug.Gu Yunxi was about to explode.Although it was found in her baggage, she had not stolen anything and should never plead guilty to false charges.Using her quick wits, she set up her mind and fabricated."It's mine. My past mother left it to me. I didn't steal it."

Stepping on the quiet moonlight, Ming Lan walked slowly to Gu Yunxi's back. He opened his mouth and puffed warm breath on her neck."Be so sure of yourself, aren't you? Do you wish to grow wings and fly out of the Garden?"His enchanting voice chilled Gu Yunxi's heart. Extremely nervous, she could almost feel her heart popping out of her mouth.How long had he been standing here? Had he seen through her disguise?While guessing wildly in her mind, she immediately knelt down humbly."Master Ming.""Um-hum."He watched her turn around and snorted casually.In the moonlight, the python robe was particularly white. The gorgeous brocade seemed to be flown with luster, covering his body like snow.The well-embroidered hem swept across Gu Yunxi's cheek. In a blink of an eye, he was before her.He lifted her chin with his long and smooth index finger. Ming Lan ar

The next day, Madam Du arranged for Gu Yunxi, Sun Shengsheng, and five other damsels to take the etiquette course to prepare for entering the Palace.The etiquette course that Madam Du personally taught them aimed to guide and drill their etiquette about sitting, standing, saluting, and dealing with others.After the seven damsels stood in two lines, one with three and one with four, Madam Du began to pose. She slowly raised her hands, saying."I'll only do it once. Look carefully. Raise your hands on the side of your left chest, and gently drop down on your left crotch. Then lift your right heel and bend your knees slowly and solemnly with your head bowed.And greet the one by saying — May you be healthy and happy."Remember, there is a difference between the curtsy and the fist-and-palm salute. While doing the fist-and-palm salute, you need to put your hands flat in front of your chest and keep your upper body not mo

Youzhu Garden—After practicing and learning for one day, Madam Du sent someone to call Gu Yunxi to the purlin.Sitting on the rose chair, Madam Du was satisfied and smiled when she saw Gu Yunxi's natural and graceful salute.When Gu Yunxi got up, she said to her."Yesterday it emerged that Chuxiu Palace was in urgent need of more hands. I want to send you there as a servant. Your Grace with the surname of Xu is famous for being cold, but it would be easy to serve her because she does not have many requirements. A year ago, she gave birth to a prince and her position was strengthened.""I'm considering for you. If you miss this chance, it will be difficult for you to find it again because you are not very beautiful and do not have an eminent family background. Some time ago you offended the Master Ming. If you are sent to the Palace in the future, it is hard to predict whether the inside officer in the Palace will give

Under the bright moonlight, the masked man got up with a flute in his hand. Behind the mask, his sharp eyes were brilliant and cold like the stars in the sky."Leng Qingtang, the Commander-in-chief of the Eastern Depot... you really are nosy now. What kind of laws could the common people break if they just admire the moon and play the flute, entertaining themselves?"Leng Qingtang smiled lightly, with a cold and sharp light hidden between his narrow eyebrows."It's a delight to play the flute and admire the moon. However, Your Excellency deliberately showed off your skills and then broke in the Palace to steal the emperor's crown and robe. The liability was already inevitable for violating the national laws, and also it was unavoidable to go to the Eastern Depot."With a cold gaze quickly sweeping over the crowd of over fifty secret guards in front of him, he chuckled under the black iron mask."Master Leng, it was luc

Due to Lu Qiange's sudden appearance, the situation instantly reversed.The masked man holding the flute on his chest, glanced sideways at the steel nails embedded in the trunk. Then he turned and squinted directly at its owner.Interesting! Were you two going to fight against one?The western tribes ordered a great number of secret contacts in Da Yi. When Lu Qiange arrived in the capital, he had already known the truth of the dummy case in the Palace.Tonight, not long after he came out of the inside Palace where he met friends, he heard the awe-inspiring flute sounded by someone in a way of thousand-mile-sound-transmission.Having heard the sound, he happened to see that members of the Eastern Depot were attacking the masked man from all sides.Lu Qiange hid in the dark to watch the battle. He was very excited when seeing Leng Qingtang fighting with that secret man fiercely.Meanwhile, he kn

The work in Chuxiu Palace was not as difficult as Gu Yunxi imagined. As Madam Du said, Concubine Xu was cold-spirited and short-spoken, and she was never fastidious.Born in a scholarly family, Concubine Xu was so elegant and she played the zither and painted in the Palace every day. Gu Yunxi would light the sandalwood incense burner just before she played the zither and put it on the zither case.After Concubine Xu wrote and sang poems, Gu Yunxi had to put the manuscripts of the poems into the brocade box in chronological order and placed it on the cabinet.Concubine Xu would get out of a large plain robe after painting every time, and Gu Yunxi would take it for washing.Because Concubine Xu looked beautiful and she was never harsh on the servants, nobody thought she was affected to have such exquisite life preferences.The days passed extremely fast out of the busy work, and in a blink of an eye, Gu Yunxi had been in
