Chapter 49
Chapter 48: Make a wish
In the main hall of the princess mansion, Pei Ji’an and the other princes paid homage to the princess of Dongyang. Gao Zihan took a few familiar little ladies to sit in the side hall and speak for themselves.
Gao Zihan is the only daughter of Princess Dongyang. There is only one brother on it. The son of the princess Dongyang is mediocre, but the daughter is very beautiful and smart. Therefore, the princess loves this daughter ten cents.
The eldest princess of Dongyang is married to the eldest grandson’s uncle, the Gao clan, and has been close to the eldest grandson’s family for many years. In addition, she herself likes to solicit banquets and extravagance. The clan princesses and concubines do not want to fight, so they secretly give way. Dongyang, that’s why the princess Dongyang sits firmly in the position of the first person in Dongyang.
The eldest princess of Dongyang regards herself as the head of the clan family, and Gao Zihan, as the eldest princess’s most beloved daughter, also inherits the vanity and sociality of her mother. She is arrogant and arrogant. She usually only plays with women who have status and status. If a girl is born noble but has no brains and talks vulgarly, she will not be able to enter Gao Zihan’s eyes.
At this moment, Gao Zihan was drawn to the side hall, and each one was carefully selected. Among them are Pei Chuyue, the first daughter of the Pei family, and the two daughters of the eldest grandson family. Cao Xiu, and Li Changle, Princess of Guangning who went to the palace to participate in the banquet.
There was still Li Chaoge, but after sitting for a while, Li Chaoge found an excuse to leave. Gao Zihan originally didn’t like this princess who grew up in the folks, why? Mother instructed, Gao Zihan pinched his nose and pulled one or two together, but Li Chaoge didn’t expect Li Chaoge to be exalted and left.
How arrogant is Gao Zihan’s heart, Li Chaoge does not take the initiative? It is not uncommon for Gao Zihan to invite him a second time. She sat in the side hall of the princess mansion, concentrating on socializing with a few other people.
The side hall they are in has a good view, and through the screen, you can see the movement of the main hall. A group of aristocratic Langjun came to greet Princess Dongyang, Gao Zihan watched Pei Chuyue suddenly lift up, and after scanning it carefully twice, he collapsed again in disappointment.
Gao Zihan was curious, so she followed to look around, and smiled: “A Yue, your brother is outside, why are you listless?”
Of course Pei Chuyue knew that her elder brother had come, and it was precisely because of this that she couldn’t help but feel lost. Aunt Qian exhorted him, and later forced him to take a leave at Dali Temple, and then he took his cousin to the flower viewing banquet. It stands to reason that Gu Mingke will act with Pei Ji’an today? Now Pei Ji’an is coming to greet the princess, but Gu Mingke is not there, most of whom are caught by someone. When Pei Chuyue thought of Li Chaoge, who had just left, her mood grew even worse.
Li Changle also looked over and asked, “Yes, Chu Yue, what’s wrong with you?”
Pei Chuyue was embarrassed to talk about her thoughts, so she concealed: “It’s nothing, I didn’t get a good result a few days ago, so I was worried in my heart.”
Upon hearing this, the eldest grandson’s mother smiled and said, “You also went back to try it? How is it? What did you ask, is it not working?”
Pei Chuyue said half-truth: “I hope it doesn’t work. At first, I asked questions in my own capacity, and they were all right, but in the end, I asked if I could marry Ruyi Langjun, but it said No. I might as well leave it alone.”
The eldest grandson laughed and scratched Pei Chuyue’s face with her fingers: “I don’t know how to be ashamed, but you secretly asked about marriage!”
Pei Chuyue and the eldest grandson’s mother are cousins. They have been used to fighting since they were young. They didn’t show any weakness when they saw it. They also choked back: “I don’t believe you, you didn’t ask!”
Pei Chuyue and Changsun San Niang tickled each other, and they fell together with a smile. When the little ladies got together, they liked this kind of peachy and spiritual topics the most. Li Changle quickly asked: “What are you talking about? What support?”
Pei Chuyue laughed enough and replied: “It’s the new gameplay that the princess and I mentioned last time at the Yang Palace Banquet. Princess, I tried it myself, it’s really amazing!”
Li Changle suddenly became interested. Li Changle was the emperor’s favorite daughter, she showed interest, how could Gao Zihan not understand. Gao Zihan immediately said: “Princess Guangning has never played, let’s demonstrate to the princess. But you are too old-fashioned. Divination is only the most basic, and the real fun is yet to come.”
“Oh?” After saying this, several little ladies were all interested, “What is it?”
Gao Zihan has a wide range of friends and knowledge, and her news is much more informed than Pei Chuyue and others. She deliberately sold the gates and waited to attract the attention of the few people present. Then she said: “A few days ago, I heard a friend say that this great immortal has vast magical powers and boundless magical powers. Can change destiny.”
“What?” The ladies were all startled. When Pei Chuyue heard that the future could be changed, her heart moved?: “Can it really be changed?”
“Of course.” Gao Zihan swallowed it all. She asked the maid to take the cinnabar, plates, etc. used by the Fuyao, set the position in a light car, and said, “Daxian can test his life, and naturally he can change his life. After I listened to my friends? Haven’t tried it yet, just so, let’s try it together.”
Gao Zihan set the position of the five elements and melted the cinnabar with water, and said: “There are five people who wish to make a wish. Princess Guangning has not tried it. This time, I will watch it first, and then let the princess come next time. You drop a few drops of blood in. Please Daxian must have blood to be effective.”
Except for Li Changle, several of his little ladies had tried it privately. It was no surprise that they broke their fingers very neatly and forced a few drops of blood into the cinnabar. Li Changle watched by the side, and couldn’t help but tensed up: “Is this kind of support technique really safe? Why do we need to add blood?”
“I don’t know, when people spread it, they said that blood must be added.” Gao Zihan hugged his fingers with a kerchief. After a while, the blood on his fingertips congealed. Gao Zihan didn’t care, and said, “It’s just such a tiny bit of blood, and it was pierced by a needle when it was used as a needle and thread. It’s okay?”
Li Changle could feel that something was wrong, she became nervous and said, “I don’t think it’s safe, or just forget it.”
Li Changle wanted to retreat, but the other five people were excited, pulling Li Changle and saying: “Princess, you don’t need to participate, you can just watch it by the side.”
Li Changle was dragged by someone, and finally, the curiosity was overwhelmed by his vigilance, and he stayed in the side hall for the time being. Gao Zihan used cinnabar to drew directions and symbols in a predominant posture, instructing everyone to stand: “Ayue, stand up a little bit, don’t block the light. Okay, now it’s okay. Cao Niang is in the golden position, you first Come on.”
The eyes of everyone fell on Cao Xiu. Cao Xiu thought for a while, folded his hands together, closed his eyes and said: “Grandfather is not in good health recently. I hope that grandfather will recover as soon as possible and live a long life.”
The eldest grandson Wuniang in the next position heard it, and joined hands and said: “I hope Afather’s problem will be solved quickly, and Chengri will not frown again.”
The wishes expressed by Cao Xiu and the eldest grandson Wuniang were very filial, and they did not fit into the playful occasions. Gao Zihan saw that the atmosphere was cold, and immediately said: “You two are too boring, and you are not endorsing at home, and you are thinking about what to do when you come out to play? Let me come, I want to become taller and become the tallest person at the banquet. !”
Gao Zihan is a veteran of the playground. When she said this, his lady laughed and the atmosphere suddenly became active. Pei Chuyue smiled and said: “How is this possible? You are not yet three? How tall is your cousin, even if you are over three? Cousin, there are many princes at the banquet today, but you can still be taller than them? Your wish is simply impossible. ?now.”
Gao Zihan raised his eyebrows indifferently, and said, “The great immortal has vast magical powers, who knows it’s impossible? It’s just to make this kind of unrealistic wish? It’s fun. If we can do it by ourselves, what else would we ask Daxian to do?”
At the beginning of Gao Zihan, a few others are also eager to try. Changsun San? Niang rolled her eyes and said with a smile: “Then I won’t gain weight by eating no matter what.”
The girls laughed and teased the eldest grandson San Niang, even Li Changle couldn’t help laughing. After the grandson’s mother smiled, she hurriedly looked at Pei Chuyue: “Ayue, hurry up, it’s your turn.”
With a slight smile on Pei Chuyue’s face, she lowered her eyes to scan the skirt, and an uncontrollable thought came to her heart. She is the daughter of Pei’s family, with both parents, family harmony, money, beauty, and love for her. The only thing she can’t get is her sweetheart.
Pei Chuyue became serious secretly. She knelt upright, closed her eyes, and said in her heart piously: “The fairy is here, if you really have a spirit, please bless me to get what I want and marry my cousin Gu Mingke.”
Gao Zihan and others saw that Pei Chuyue suddenly straightened up, ten minutes curious. Pei Chuyue’s lips moved slightly, and did not say aloud, but silently made a wish in her heart. What? His ladies refused to allow them, and said together: “Everyone said their wishes, why didn’t you say it? What did you promise?”
Pei Chuyue shook her head before she refused to say. Gao Zihan yelled: “You lie to us! Come on, what wish did you make, why is it mysterious?”
This is the secret and delusion that Pei Chuyue can’t tell her the most. How could she share it with him? How many of them did she share? She shook her head and said nothing, besides, a few people didn’t believe it, chasing Pei Chuyue and asked. Pei Chuyue couldn’t bear the disturbance, and ran away from the pad with her skirt: “I won’t say it.”
The eldest grandson Wuniang went to chase Pei Chuyue, Gao Zihan sat on the side and directed, Li Changle sat in the seat and laughed, and there was laughter in the side hall. At this time, a few maids walked in outside, attached to Gao Zihan’s ear and said something, Gao Zihan nodded, and whispered to Li Changle: “Princess Guangning, my mother called me. I will go back.”
Li Changle nodded indifferently. Gao Zihan left quietly without disturbing the few people who were playing. The eldest grandson Wuniang and Pei Chuyue are both Jiao ladies, and they were tired after a while, and they came back holding each other’s hands. After they sat down, Pei Chuyue was surprised to find that the grandson’s mother was eating: “Cousin, don’t you not eat gingerbread?”
Everyone turned around and found that half of the pastry plate was empty in the blink of an eye. They were watching Pei Chuyue playing around just now, and no one had eaten anything before. In other words, these cakes were eaten by the grandson San Niang alone.
“I don’t know.” While talking, the grandson San Niang finished another piece of brown sugar gingerbread. She still had pastry crumbs on her mouth, but she didn’t tidy up her appearance, but stretched out her hand to another piece of pastry: “I don’t know what’s wrong, I’m suddenly very hungry and I really want to eat.”
The few ladies present are all from extraordinary backgrounds, and the mere cakes are not a problem to them at all. But the eldest grandson ate one piece after another, and one plate was finished in the blink of an eye. She was still not happy, and asked the maid to take a second plate.
The dignified princess mansion would naturally not be stingy with a box of pastries, but the eldest grandson’s three-niang eating method frightened everyone. Wu Niang, the eldest grandson, was worried and asked, “San? Sister, what’s the matter with you? You didn’t like pastries before.”
It’s not that I don’t like it, but I like it, but I don’t dare to eat it. These noble girls have no worries about food and clothing, but in the vanity fair, every word and deed must conform to the norms, that daughter dare to eat herself round and chubby? Datang regards plumpness and radiance as its beauty? However, plumpness and fatness are obviously two concepts.
The grandson San Niang also felt that something was wrong with her. She used to exercise restraint very much. She did not dare to eat the second piece of this sweet and greasy pastry. But today I don’t know what’s going on. She suddenly couldn’t suppress her cravings for food. She even felt that she wouldn’t eat fat anyway. What’s the matter with eating more?
The maid fetched new cakes, and the eldest grandson’s third mother stuffed her mouth continuously, and she sprinkled the scraps on her skirt. As a young lady, she was very gaffey in this behavior. Li Changle felt something was wrong and asked, “Is there something added to this pastry? Why is the grandson three? Mother can’t stop eating?”
When the maid of the princess mansion heard this, she knelt down and said tremblingly: “Princess Guangning Mingjian, slaves and maids would never dare to have this kind of thought.”
The few present here are all noble and favored aristocratic ladies. The princess of Dongyang has a heart to draw their family behind them. How can they put sweet cakes on these ladies? Li Changle and Pei Chuyue waited with horror as they watched the grandson San Niang eating one piece after another. In the end, they gobbled it up. Pei Chuyue touched her arm, wondering why she felt terrified.
Pei Chuyue quietly leaned to Li Changle’s side and whispered: “Princess, I don’t think the third cousin is right. Let’s ask the people from the Long Princess Mansion to come and have a look.”
Is Li Changle right? She stood up and asked, “Where’s cousin Zihan? Where did she go?”
“What’s the matter with the eldest princess just now? Ask the lady, the lady has gone to the main hall.”
Li Changle nodded and said, “Then I will go to the main hall to find her.”
Pei Chuyue didn’t dare to stay in the side hall, and hurried to Li Changle’s side and said, “Princess, I’ll go with you.”
Cao Xiu felt that his heart was furry, so he just found an excuse to follow Li Changle out. The eldest grandson Wuniang was also very scared, but the eldest grandson Sanniang was her elder sister, and the eldest grandson Wuniang had no choice but to stay in the side hall and wait for Li Changle to return. The three of Li Changle went to the main hall. When Princess Dongyang saw Li Changle coming in, she smiled and said, “Guangning, I only have Pei Lang for a while. Are you chasing me?”
Pei Ji’an was left behind by Princess Dongyang to speak. At the moment when Li Changle entered the door, everyone subconsciously felt that Li Changle was directed at Pei Ji’an. Where is Li Changle now? She thought about the princess Dongyang’s ridicule, her face was extremely bad, and she whispered: “Auntie, I didn’t come to see Brother Pei. What about cousin Zihan?”
Gao Zihan? The princess Dongyang remembered, she glanced around in the temple, and said in surprise: “I clearly called her to come over just now. This child is really, where is she dawdling, why hasn’t she come?”
Li Changle’s expression worsened when he heard it. Pei Chuyue held Li Changle’s arm tightly, and her voice began to tremble: “Princess, we just stayed with Lady Gao. She came out before the incense stick.”
What? The princess Dongyang also became serious, she called someone over, and said with a calm face: “Come on, go find the lady, no matter where you are, bring her over as soon as you find it.”
“Yes.”
Seeing that Li Changle and his younger sister looked bad, Pei Ji’an asked, “Chu Yue, Princess Guangning, what’s the matter?”
Pei Chuyue’s lips turned white and she kept shaking her head, unable to even speak. Li Changle’s face was also pale. She wanted to say something and stopped, and finally said intermittently: “We just…played the latest? Popular Fu Ji. We were just playing around and didn’t take it seriously? But after cousin Zihan made a wish? NS.”
Pei Ji’an felt bad when he heard the words “Fu Ji”, and he quickly asked, “What wish did Lady Gao make?”
Li Changle frowned and tried to think: “I can’t remember it clearly, it seems to be related to the height…”
Before Li Changle’s voice fell, a scream came from outside, and the people in the main hall were taken aback. The princess Dongyang fought a cold war inexplicably. She ran to the door and saw a woman walking up the highest loft in the princess mansion. Many maids called from below, but she turned a deaf ear to them, and just walked up high.
She finally walked to the highest floor. She looked around and found out that there was no higher place, she took off her drape, climbed onto the fence, and hung on the beam. Princess Dongyang saw the man clearly, her legs softened and she almost fell on the spot.
Pei Ji’an stood not far away and hurriedly supported Princess Dongyang. The princess Dongyang stood firmly, her dizziness was dizzy, and she could hardly stand still: “Zihan, what are you doing?”
Gao Zihan didn’t seem to hear the movement or silence around him. The movement was mechanically numb, and he didn’t seem to be a conscious person at all. Pei Jian knew that Gao Zihan might have gotten into something unclean. He motioned to the maid to help the eldest princess and ran to the attic quickly: “Chu Yue, Princess Guangning, protect yourself. I will go and see Gao. Lady.”
Pei Jian ran to the attic quickly, and when he was approaching the attic, he met Li Chaoge and Gu Mingke. The two groups nearly collided, Pei Ji’an stopped abruptly. In contrast, Li Chaoge was much more flexible. She avoided Pei Ji’an with disgust, gave him a cold glance, and went straight to the crowd of onlookers without any extra words.
Li Chaoge quickly swept across the crowd gathered downstairs, frowning and asked: “What’s the matter?”
“I don’t know.” Gao Zihan’s maid was already crying, they knelt on the ground, crying out of breath, “The lady said that she would go back to the room to fetch things and send us away. When we find out again, we will see the lady. A man ran up to the attic and ignored the call, and locked the doors and windows.”
The servants and guards kept hitting the door, but unfortunately it was useless. Li Chaoge knew at a glance that the doors and windows of the attic were sealed by magic, and it was impossible to open them naturally. Li Chaoge took a step back and looked upstairs with Gu Mingke.
Gao Zihan on the tall building was swaying, she stepped on the railing, swayingly tied the knot with a drape, every time the wind blew, her body would shake, which scared the people below. The calls downstairs came after another, and the princess Dongyang and others also ran over. When she saw this scene, she cried out for my son and almost fainted.
Li Chaoge didn’t have time to listen to them crying, Gao Zihan was dead, obviously he was bent over by something, and Gao Zihan’s life was in danger if he didn’t save people. Li Chaoge turned around and asked directly: “What did you do just now?”
Pei Chuyue was almost crying in fright. When she saw Gu Mingke, she couldn’t help it anymore, and said in a crying voice: “Cousin, Lady Gao and San? Cousin suddenly became like that? I don’t know what’s wrong with them. Me. so afraid.”
“Calm down, crying? It’s no use.” Gu Mingke looked at Pei Chuyue calmly and rationally, and asked, “What did you do before then?”
“I don’t know.” Pei Chuyue choked, her voice gradually lowered, “Lady Gao and cousin asked for help, I don’t know what’s going on?…”
Fu Ji… Alright, Li Chaoge understands. She sighed secretly, thinking that these little ladies were weaker than the other, but they were surprisingly courageous, and even dared to ask for such things. It’s easy to ask God to send it away, but it’s not easy to send it away when the call comes.
Li Chaoge was too lazy to question, the situation had already been caused, and it would be useless to blame them. Without saying anything, Li Chaoge directly asked Princess Dongyang: “Is there any weapon in hand?”
The princess of Dongyang has already? She was so scared that she didn’t understand Li Chaoge’s question: “What?”
Look at how confused they are, unlike the usual self-defense tools at home. At this time, there was another scream from downstairs. Li Chaoge looked up and found that Gao Zihan had already tied the knot and stretched his neck in.
The female relatives downstairs cried and cried into a ball. Li Chaoge made a calm face, pulled out a hairpin from the bun of the woman next to him, tied his hair casually, and took two steps to run, gently leaping to the eaves of the attic: “It’s too late. I’ll go there to save people,” You guard the outside.”
