"We can't find a way out of the palace, Brother Xibu is the commander of the forbidden army, it is useless for him to go to Huayang Palace many times, the Empress Dowager Huayang has lost power, and even the people of Huayang Palace don't go out of the palace, let alone the eldest brother?"

"And everyone in the Yiling Hall is confined to the courtyard, none of us can go out, even if the people who were kind in the past can't even see each other, how dare they send their children out of the palace?"

"Your Majesty, Lord of the Palace, it was I, a, who bewitched Brother Xibu and made him make a big mistake. Please also look at the children's faces, and the merits of the eldest brother's past, and forgive their sins. After all, they are innocent, it is me, a shameless woman, to seduce, everything is my fault, please put me to death in the courtyard to make an example. ”

usually cries too much, but at this moment, Yi'an didn't cry. She seemed to be stating the fact that she invited Xibu into the house that night and persuaded Xibu to get drunk, causing Xibu to spend the night in a daze. Xibu's various concealments were all her ideas.

She has all the blame on her back, so she has to show the role of a shameless woman, which makes Zhongli angry, and even kills her on the spot. Because Yi'an knows that Xibu is too simple, as long as he sees Zhongli, his words will become indescribable. It's just that he can't lie, and when he lies, everyone can see it.

The reason why he was able to hide it for so long was that no one asked him. Whenever someone asks him something, the matter will inevitably be discovered. But who has nothing to do to ask about Xibu? Who would have thought that Weststep would do such a thing?

Zhao Cui and the chef didn't speak, and listened quietly to Yi'an. Zhao Cui and the chef didn't dare to speak, the matter was related to Xibu, and the only people who could make decisions about them here were Yingzheng and Zhongli.

Zhong Li said angrily: "It's good to admit the facts, Xiaobu is a child brought out by the master of this hall, where does he understand those intrigues in the palace." He can't learn that kind of method, and I can't teach it. Everything is bewitched by you, and today there is such a catastrophe, no one can protect you, not only you, but even the children......"

Ying Zheng raised his hand to stop Zhongli, who was about to be angry, and said lightly: "Xiao Zhong wait, it's just a one-sided statement, there are hidden secrets in it, let me finish asking, and then make a decision." ”

Zhongli shouted at Yingzheng: "Childe, the facts are in front of you, what else do you want to ask?" Don't think Zhongli has lost enough face? If this matter leaks out, how can I face the sisters of the Zhong Palace, they will only think that I taught ......"

Ying Zheng continued: "Let me finish asking. ”

It was just a helpless look, Zhongli couldn't say it anymore in an instant, she was most afraid that Ying Zheng would show such an expression, it was a kind of dissatisfaction with her.

When Zhongli was about to enter a violent state, Zhao Cui immediately closed the gap on the second floor, Zhongli said so loudly that he almost let the angry voice out.

They all live in the Yiling Palace, and if this matter is leaked, not only the three members of Yi'an's family will die, but many people here will die. Although Zhao Cui will not die, she will feel guilty for the rest of her life, she is the owner of the Yiling Palace, and she is in charge of the people here, and she is to blame for such a thing.

Ying Zheng asked: "Xiao An, this king asks you again, are you telling the truth?" ”

Yi'an said calmly: "It's all the truth, please put me to death immediately, a shameless woman." ”

Ying Zheng shook his head and said: "You say the truth, but I want to say that you are lying, don't think I can't see it, after I ask Xibu, I will naturally know if you are lying." ”

asked Xibu: "Xiaobu, you have never lied in front of me and Xiao Zhong, now let me ask you, is Xiao An a shameless woman?" Don't look at Xiao Zhong, she doesn't understand, won't tell you any answers, just answer me or not? ”

Xibu shook his head desperately and said, "No." ”

Hearing this answer, Yi'an's psychological defense line completely collapsed, and tears instantly soared, but he still didn't dare to cry. took Xibu's hand, shook it desperately, and said, "Brother Xibu, don't answer any questions, as long as you don't answer a word, the king will only execute me, and I'm reluctant to kill you." ”

Ying Zheng singled his finger to seal Yi'an's dumb acupoint, and said lightly: "I only ask Xiaobu, so don't talk too much." ”

"Xiaobu, you have to answer my question honestly, if you dare not answer, I will kill Xiao An immediately, unless you want to watch her die in front of you."

Looking at Yi'an's pitiful appearance, Xibu cried bitterly: "The king, please ask, I will explain everything, I don't want Xiao An to die." ”

Zhongli said angrily: "Silly boy, none of the women in the palace are simple, they are deceived like this, and they are still saying good things for her." If you say that, even your aunt can't save you. ”

Ying Zheng frowned and said, "Xiao Zhong, have you forgotten what I just said?" Don't speak again until I'm done. ”

Zhongli opened her mouth and closed her eyes helplessly, she didn't dare to say any more, that would make Yingzheng disgusted. If Yingzheng is furious and gets rid of her in a fit of anger, then the previous efforts will be in vain.

Ying Zheng continued: "Xiaobu, now I ask a question, and you have to answer it honestly. Look me in the eye, you just answer to me alone. ”

In order to save Yi'an, Xibu nodded desperately and said, "The king, excuse me." ”

Ying Zheng asked: "The rules of the palace, Xiao Zhong should have taught you, Xiao An invited you into the house for dinner that day, why did you go in?" Sharing a table with the palace maid in private will break the rules of the palace, have you forgotten? ”

Xi Buyan said: "I always keep in mind the rules of the palace and dare not forget them. ”

Ying Zheng asked, "Then why do you want to go in?" Talk about how you felt at that time. ”

Xibu recalled it for a while, and immediately said: "Over the years in the palace, I often heard a lot of things about the love between men and women from my aunt. Sometimes I also ask my aunt, what is love? My aunt told me that she didn't understand either, and that when I grew up, I would understand. ”

"But I haven't understood what Aunt Lian doesn't understand, why does Xiao An understand? So it aroused my curiosity, so I forgot the rules of the palace and went in to drink with Xiao An. Xiao An told me that only a drunk person can show a person's instinct, follow his heart, and he will understand after dawn. ”

Hearing this answer, Zhongli opened his eyes suddenly, revealing a shocked expression. It turned out that Xibu did such a thing, and the reason was Zhongli's influence on him. If it weren't for Zhongli's constant nagging in front of Xibu about what love is, how could this stupid boy fall into someone else's trap? The palace maids who live in the Yiling Hall will never leave this courtyard for a single step, they all want to escape, and Xibu is a person they can use.

Zhongli thought so, but Yingzheng didn't think so, carefully recalled what Yi'an said earlier, and asked Xibudao: "Answer me another question, Xiao Zhong doesn't understand the relationship between men and women, why do you know that Xiao An understands?" ”

Xibu immediately replied: "This has to start from a night when I went to the toilet, when Xiao An was also in the toilet, she asked me to take a weaving cloth to clean my body, until now, I don't understand what she means by menarche?" Since then, I have known the relationship between men and women from Xiao An's mouth, and seeing that I don't understand, she still looks very strange. Wang, you are smarter than Sister Yezi, come and tell me, what is menarche? Why didn't everyone who knew tell me? My aunt didn't teach me either, and I was afraid of making a big joke, so I didn't dare to ask my brothers in the forbidden army. ”

Hearing this answer, except for Yi'an, who was motionless and speechless, several people looked at each other. Ying Zheng asked this question, but he didn't expect to be asked back by Xibu again, and the people around him who asked it were extremely embarrassed.

Ying Zheng pursed his lips, raised his head and asked Zhong Li: "Xiao Zhong, such a simple truth, haven't you ever taught Xiaobu?" Xiaobu is a child you picked up in the mountains and forests, and you should also teach him some of the great defenses of men and women in the world. At his age, when a man is strong, he will definitely chase after him when he encounters such a question. ”

Zhongli said distressedly: "Childe, learning in small steps is my unique skill, we usually don't even have enough training, where do we have time to teach him this." Even if he knew this, his understanding of the way of assassination would not improve, not to mention that I thought that he had been in the Praetorian Guard for many years, and he should have heard those subordinates say it a long time ago. ”

Ying Zheng shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Those subordinates of ours have a lot of respect for Xiaobu, where would they talk to him about such a thing." Don't say more, let me continue to ask, how do I explain this awkward question? ”

Ying Zheng was also very distressed, sorted out his thoughts, and said to Xibu: "Xiaobu, as for menarche, you don't need to know more, you just need to know that it is something that happens every adult woman every month." Not only do you not need to understand, but I don't need to understand much myself, when the first tide comes, the women themselves know how to solve it. ”

Xibu seemed to understand something, but asked again: "Xiao An has also said such similar things, but I don't know something, why only women have menarche, why don't we men?" ”

This kind of stupid question almost didn't make Ying Zheng laugh out loud, and he could only say: "That kind of thing is only for women, and we men won't show up." Again, we don't need to understand it deeply, including myself. ”

Xibu nodded and said, "Even the king doesn't need to understand things, I don't need to pay attention to them." ”

Ying Zheng didn't want to dwell on this issue, so he jumped directly to another question and asked: "Xiao Zhong is your aunt, you should know her habits, even if she is by my side, she has never been drunk, and she is not drunk in the outside world." But why do you want to drink? Still drunk? ”

Xibu replied, "It's strange to say, do you know, my lord? Xiao An said that when you are drunk, you will understand what the love between men and women is. I didn't want to get drunk, but Xiao An's expression made me feel distressed, and she was laughing and crying when she spoke. ”

Ying Zheng seemed to understand something, and then said: "Xiao An saw you come to eat, and naturally smiled, but she understood who she was, as the palace maid of the Yiling Palace, she couldn't do anything beyond the rules. She must have thought of what would happen to her. It's about smiling at you and lamenting that you don't have a future, which is why this happens. Go on, tell me how you felt at the time, and I'll clear up what you don't understand. ”

Xibu is very obedient, he does have many things he doesn't understand, and he needs a bosom friend to explain those vague places, and Yingzheng is exactly the person he needs. I only heard Xibu continue: "Laughing and crying, I was very confused, I also asked at that time, but Xiao An said that tonight, I will understand." I clearly remember that it was Xiao An who got drunk first, she had an old illness and did not eat any food when she drank. ”

"I think Xiao An is very sincere, she won't lie to me, as long as I'm drunk, I'll understand what love is. So I forgot the rules again and got drunk. When I was drunk, I felt that I couldn't let Xiao An fall asleep on the table, it would catch a cold. I carried her to the bed and untied her clothes, I didn't know what was wrong with me, I actually wanted to sleep with Xiao An, and I also stripped naked and slept with her. ”

"What happened in between, I also forget. It's just that after dawn, I ran back to my room, like Xiao An, and hid in the quilt and cried bitterly. At that time, I understood Xiao An's feelings, because we all committed taboos, and this kind of thing must not be tolerated in the world. My heart hurt like a pinprick, I didn't know how to solve it, I didn't dare to tell anyone, I could only hide in the corner and cry, and I didn't dare to cry, and I had to fake a smile in front of people. ”
