After a cup of tea, Feng Yang calmed down a little, but his lips were still a little pale and his energy was low.

"I'm fine." Feng Yang leaned on the back of the chair and smiled softly at Gu Yanfei, and patted the back of her hand.

Gu Yanfei continued to press Fengyang's acupoints for a while, then let go of her hand, and smiled, "Your Highness, let's have porridge tonight, so that you can restrain yourself."

The palace lady and Ruosu nodded repeatedly, intending to ask the imperial dining room to send more porridge and side dishes.

The palace maid hurriedly went out to deliver the meals. Just as she was leaving, a middle-aged servant of medium stature walked in from outside the hall, bowed and said, "His Royal Highness, Concubine Kang, Concubine Jing, Concubine Yi, Concubine Jian and the others Come and greet His Highness."

The middle-aged waiter bowed, did not dare to raise his head, only heard a casual female voice in front of him: "Eunuch Liu, His Royal Highness the Princess has rested, let them come to pay their respects later."

This voice was clean and clear, young and full of energy, obviously not belonging to Fengyang.

Outside the hall, the evening wind gusts, and the voices and laughter of several women are faintly carried in the wind.

There was a moment of silence in the room. Seeing that Fengyang hadn't said anything, Eunuch Liu respectfully accepted his orders and withdrew again to pass on the message.

However, shortly after he went out, the noise outside the hall became louder, accompanied by the sound of chaotic footsteps, someone was walking towards this side.

"Princess stay here, Your Highness has already rested."

"It's okay, let's say hello to Aunt Huang and leave."

"Eunuch Liu, be careful, don't bump into the concubines."

"..."

Amidst the noisy disputes, Li Yunxie, who was dressed in the make-up of the princess of the county, and four or five female relatives broke in regardless of the obstruction of Eunuch Liu and another servant.

Outside the main hall, Li Yunxie walked slowly in the afterglow of the setting sun. The seven-di crown inlaid with pearls and gemstones on her head was shining in the afterglow. And dignified and elegant.

Behind her, Princess Jing, Princess Yi and other concubines were two steps behind her, showing a bit of anxiety and regret on their faces.

According to their intentions, since Fengyang has rested, it is the same for them to come to greet him later, but Li Yunmai rushed in without stopping. They came with her, neither entering nor leaving, but it was a bit of a dilemma up.

Li Yunxie quickly walked outside the main hall, glanced inside the hall, and happened to see Gu Yanfei lift the curtain and come out from the direction of the East Side Hall.

Li Yunxie lightly pursed her vermilion lips, stepped over the high threshold, and took a step ahead of Gu Yanfei, "I heard that the imperial aunt is not feeling well, so I came here with a few concubines to see the imperial aunt."

While speaking, she caressed her cuffs. A gold inlaid jade bracelet was worn between her snow-white and slender wrists, which made the skin on her wrists delicate and flawless.

Gu Yanfei stopped five or six steps away from Li Yunxie, and looked at her with a smile.

A sigh escaped from Li Yunxie's red lips: "I didn't expect Miss Gu Er to be here."

She seemed to mention it casually, but the other princesses behind her were a little stunned, and subconsciously slowed down their pace.

The news of Princess Fengyang's serious illness has been spread in the capital for a long time, but no one knows whether it is true or not. The Princess Mansion has long closed its doors to thank guests. They only heard that Fengyang has been recuperating in the palace for a while.

This year's imperial mausoleum ancestor worship, Empress Dowager Yuan did not accompany her due to "illness". It can be said that the highest-ranking female family member in this palace is Fengyang.

Just now when Concubine Kang suggested that they come together to greet Fengyang, they agreed, this is courtesy.

No matter why Concubine Kang came here, they definitely did not come to Hanfeng Palace to inquire about news.

But now...

Concubine Jing, Concubine Yi and the others looked at Gu Yanfei and Li Yunxie for a while, and looked at each other for a while, somewhat restless, but at this moment they could only laugh dryly.

"Sister-in-law Fifth Emperor, don't you think so?" Li Yunxie looked at Princess Yi on the left rear, and smiled sweetly.

Princess Yi smiled without saying a word, not intending to get involved in the grievances between the two, she gracefully stood there with a handkerchief in her hands, her smile was darker than her eyes.

At dusk, the sky was dim, and the palace people lit palace lanterns with glass lampshades in the main hall, and the lights were bright.

Under the candlelight, the jewelry on the bodies of several princesses, including Li Yunxie, shone brightly, dazzling with jewels.

In contrast, Gu Yanfei, who was a few steps away, was dressed in extremely plain clothes.

Meeting Li Yunxie's smiling face, Gu Yanfei said calmly: "Your Highness is tired, and is resting inside, Wangfei, please go back."

The smile on Li Yunxie's face deepened by two points, a pair of dimples appeared on the corners of his lips, and there was a hint of coquettishness between his glances.

Her faint eyes glanced at the door curtain behind Gu Yanfei, with a bit of thought in her eyes, she said with a smile: "Didn't the maid of the imperial aunt just go to pass the meal, second girl Gu, the imperial aunt really' already 'Have you rested yet?"

She increased the volume of the word "already", which clearly meant that Gu Yanfei was lying.

Gu Yanfei's smile didn't change, "The meal was passed on to me..."

"Does the imperial aunt not eat?" Li Yunxie interrupted Gu Yanfei's words appropriately, "If the imperial aunt is unwell, it is better to announce the imperial physician. It is a taboo to avoid the doctor."

"Concubine Kang really knows how to joke, is the imperial physician as good as me?" Gu Yanfei boasted calmly, smiling with crooked eyebrows.

The two were smiling from beginning to end, talking and laughing at Yanyan, but anyone could see that there was a knife between them.

The other princesses were all silent, just watching from the sidelines.

Li Yunxi was about to say something, but Fengyang's old and tired female voice suddenly came from behind the door curtain: "Come in, all of you."

Therefore, Li Yunxie, Concubine Jing and the others followed the sound and looked towards the door curtain.

There was a silence in the main hall.

When the evening wind blows, the candle flames flicker in the lampshade, and the light and shadow float.

Li Yunxie's dark eyes were as light as spring water, and there was a trace of thought on his face.

Originally, Gu Yanfei came out on purpose to stop them from going in to greet Fengyang, Li Yunxie was already 70% sure in her heart, but now, she was a little hesitant...

Did she guess wrong?

Li Yunxie didn't show his face, she smiled at Princess Jing and the others, and said nonchalantly: "Then let's go in."

She came to see Fengyang, of course she had to go in.

Li Yunxie stretched out his hands to smooth the wrinkles on his sleeves, continued to walk forward, walked around Gu Yanfei calmly, and lifted the curtain to enter by himself.

Princess Yi, Princess Jing and others at the back looked at each other, and they all saw the same meaning in each other's eyes, and they also followed Li Yunxie and filed in.

Now that they have already arrived at Hanfeng Palace, they have to invite Ann before leaving.

Gu Yanfei walked unhurriedly at the end, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

After bypassing a screen, Li Yunxie smelled a faint scent of sandalwood, the tip of his nose moved slightly, and there was a hint of tea fragrance in the sandalwood scent which was not obvious.

She was sure that there was no smell of medicine in the room.

There was a beauty couch by the east wall. Feng Yang was lazily leaning on the beauty couch, with one elbow resting on one hand, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips.

Her gray hair shone faintly in the candlelight, and her half-drawn eyelids revealed a little tiredness and laziness.

Li Yunxi remained calm and walked to the beauty's couch without stopping, and blessed Fengyang gracefully, with a perfect smile on his face, "Aunt Huang."

Princess Yi, Princess Jing and others in the rear also saluted Fengyang one after another, either calling them "Emperor's Aunt" or "His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess".

The atmosphere in the room was not warm, but rather awkward and stiff.

Feng Yang glanced at Li Yunxie and the others indifferently, and didn't let them sit down, but said indifferently: "Since we've already invited them, there's nothing else to do, let's step back."

Fengyang's expression and tone remained the same as usual, neither hot nor cold, neither happy nor sad, neither greetings nor blame, when his eyes swept over, his eyes were high and high, as if anyone had to bow their knees in front of her.

It was as if she and they were not from the same world, she was a god in the sky, and they were just a part of thousands of mortals.

Consort Yi, Concubine Jing and others have long been used to it. Fengyang's position in the Dajing Dynasty is aloof, and she has always done whatever she wants. In the past few decades, she has been like this, and she can't talk to them at all.

Princess Yi couldn't help but turned her head and took a look at Gu Yanfei who was walking slowly behind. She didn't know where the second girl Gu fell in love with Fengyang.

Princess Jing cleared her throat, and respectfully said to Feng Yang: "Your Highness, although it's April and spring is warm, but it's cold in the mountains at night, you have to be careful of the phoenix's body, don't catch a cold."

"That's right." Princess Shen said considerately, "Tomorrow is the big ceremony, and I guess I will get up when the rooster crows. It's better for the imperial aunt to rest earlier tonight, so as to recharge her energy."

Princess Yi also came back to her senses at this time, and she offered to leave with a smile on her face: "Aunt Huang, then we won't disturb your rest."

"..." Li Yunxie wanted to say something, but felt his cuffs tighten.

Princess Yi quietly tugged at Li Yunxie's sleeves, her face remained unchanged, her smile was gentle and reserved, and she gave another blessing: "We will leave now."

She gave Li Yunxie a sideways glance calmly, and warned her not to play any more tricks with her eyes, and to leave quickly.

Concubine Jing also saw Princess Yi's small movements, but pretended not to. Prince Yi is the fifth brother of King Kang, and Princess Yi is the emperor's wife. It is most appropriate for her to "persuade" the younger siblings.

However, Li Yunxie still stood with a smile on his face, as if he didn't receive Princess Yi's eyes, nor did he understand Fengyang's eviction order just now.

She smiled sweetly and said: "Aunt Huang, I specially brought some snacks I made with my own hands. This snack is very easy to digest. It was originally for Aunt Huang and several sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law to try."

She raised her hand to make a gesture, and Xia Lian walked over with the food box, and took out several plates of snacks from the food box, and there were a few pieces of pastries on each plate, arranged in the shape of a plum blossom.

Feng Yang glanced casually, opened his eyes slightly, and the dark pupils could not help but light up at this moment.

Li Yunxie saw Fengyang's moving face in his eyes, the corners of his lips curled up, and his jade fingers like spring onions stretched out from his sleeves, pointing at the plates of delicate pastries, he said: "Aunt Huang, this is a cake."

"I specially made several flavors, one is original, one is strawberry, one is green tea, and one is with raisins."

"The cake tastes soft, easy to digest, and easy to digest."

What Li Yunxie said later could no longer reach Fengyang's ears, Fengyang's cloudy eyes showed nostalgia, he stared blankly at the plates of cakes, his eye sockets seemed to be watery.

The cake cut into small pieces is fluffy and soft, and the golden color is quite attractive. At first glance, it looks like corn cake, but it is more delicate and soft. The cake exudes a faint sweetness with milk fragrance, which permeates the air , lingering around the noses of everyone, making people's index fingers twitch.

Princess Yi, Princess Jing and others also looked over curiously, thinking that the dim sum made by Li Yunxie was very fresh.

Li Yunxie took a plate of golden-yellow original cake with both hands, and handed it to the beauty's bedside.

"Aunt Huang, do you want to try it?" She smiled and said, her gaze has been paying attention to Fengyang's face, slowly moving down from her gray hair, passing over her wrinkled forehead, the corners of her eyes, and the cloudy pupils ...

Huh?

This is……

Li Yunxie's eyes stopped on Fengyang's right ear, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and his pupils fluttered.

The skin behind Fengyang's ears is not the same as the skin on his cheeks. Although it is not obvious, there is indeed a dividing line.

Li Yunxi moved his gaze away indiscriminately, then moved his gaze down, and landed on the back of Fengyang's hand again.

The back of the hand, which was as old as bark, was covered with brown spots and wrinkles, and the well-manicured nails were blue and white, without any color or vitality, just like a pair of dead hands, with pale fingertips.

Li Yunxie's eyes flickered, and the curvature of the corners of his lips remained unchanged.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief, put the plate of cake on the tea table next to the beauty's bed as if nothing had happened, and immediately retreated to Princess Yi and the others.

"Aunt Huang, remember to try my skills." Li Yunxie knelt down and blessed her, "Then I and my sisters-in-law will leave first."

Concubine Yi, Concubine Jing and the others exchanged glances again, and they all breathed a sigh of relief. If Li Yunxie didn't leave, they planned to leave first.

Several concubines said goodbye again, and retreated one after another, with a little eagerness in their steps.

Going out of the East Side Hall, Concubine Yi and the others walked more briskly. As they walked out, they kept talking in low voices:

"I've been in the carriage for a long time today, and I've knelt for so long. Let's go to bed early tonight."

"Fortunately, the sacrificial ceremony is only three days, otherwise I would not be able to bear it."

"Yeah, after thirty years of age, your body will get worse day by day."

"..."

Several princesses were in front of you, talking non-stop, and they all walked towards the gate of the main hall.

Only Li Yunxie slowed down and landed at the rear.

Behind her was a young inner servant, who stretched out his hand to make a petition with a smile, "Concubine Kang, this way."

His expression and actions were no different from those of chasing guests directly.

Li Yunxi turned a deaf ear to it, and walked slowly, with a light smile on his lips, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said: "Little Eunuch Li, although the cake is easy to digest, it contains fat and sugar, the elderly must not be greedy , later, you remember to tell the emperor's aunt on behalf of the princess."

Eunuch Li only promises.

Li Yunxi looked back again, and saw that the door behind the curtain was hastily closed from the inside.

The moment the door closed, I heard an anxious voice faintly from inside: "Your Highness, blood..."

The door slammed shut, and nothing could be heard from behind.

The vibration of closing the door caused the door curtain to shake endlessly, a string of beads was pinched by the door, and crystal beads the size of fingers scattered all over the floor like drops of water.

Those beads rolled around on the smooth marble floor, making a mess.

Li Yunxiu ignored it, and left Hanfeng Palace at a faster pace, Xia Lian followed closely behind her like a shadow.

Most of the setting sun outside the hall had set, leaving only a smear of the western sky in the sky, which was as red as blood, and exuded an ominous atmosphere faintly.

Li Yunxie walked forward without saying a word, and after leaving Hanfeng Palace, he parted ways with the other princesses.

Walking to a deserted place, Li Yunxie ordered in a low voice: "Xia Lian, you send another food box to Qingsi Hall, and let Mrs. Shoufu taste the dim sum I made."
