"Oh, the imperial city of Fengtian is really lively." Xingyi followed Qingluan with an extremely ordinary face. "Slow down, your injury is not healed yet, why are you walking so fast?
"
So many novel things seemed like dung in Qingluan's eyes.
Today's Qingluan is even more condensed than before, frighteningly cold.
"Miss's mission has not been completed yet, are you still in the mood to have fun?" Qingluan glanced at Xingyi coldly, turned around and continued walking forward quickly.
Xingyi glanced around, frowned and pulled Qingluan. "Someone is following us."
Qingluan also glanced warily. They were stared at when they came out of the Mu family courtyard.
"Follow me." Qingluan grabbed Xingyi's wrist and pulled him to the alley to hide.
The few people who followed Qingluan Xingyi saw that they suddenly disappeared, and quickly chased after them, looking around for them.
Qingluan turned around and kicked one of the chasing men to the ground. The poisonous dagger was already pressed against his neck. "Who asked you to follow me?"
The other party looked at Qingluan in panic. "We don't mean any harm."
"Who asked you to come!" Qingluan spoke again.
The other party knew that Qingluan's body was poisoned, so the dagger must have been quenched with poison.
"Yes... it's Prince Yu." The man closed his eyes and spoke in horror.
It was Prince Yu who asked them to protect Qingluan.
But Qingluan obviously misunderstood.
The hand holding the dagger stiffened for a moment, and Qingluan took back his hand. "Prince Yu..."
Xiao Chengen.
Did Xiao Chengen ask them to follow him?
Xiao Chengen knew that she had returned to Kyoto...
With his eyes a little red, Qingluan stood up and looked at the people on the ground coldly. "Go back and tell Prince Yu that the former Qingluan is dead. From now on...Qingluan will not pester him again, and I hope he will not force me again."
Qingluan's voice was trembling. After all, Qingluan couldn't hate Xiao Chengen, but Xiao Chengen didn't want to force her again and again.
Kill her child, and then kill her...
The man looked at Qingluan in panic, got up and ran away quickly.
Xingyi looked at Qingluan with interest, shrugged and turned to leave.
Qingluan was hiding alone in the alley, leaning against the wall weakly.
After all, she was wrong, thinking that she could keep Xiao Chengen's heart with her children...
"Ha..." He laughed at himself mockingly, and Qingluan pinched his palm with his fingers.
It was my fault. I shouldn't have taken advantage of Xiao Chengen's amnesia to think that I could keep his heart.
One day he will regain his memory.
Xiao Chengen... was not something she could afford to offend.
She lost, utterly defeated.
He lost to a dead man and also lost to himself.
"According to the clues given by the lady, that person should be nearby." Xingyi glanced at the information in his hand and quickly chased after him.
"This man was the eunuch who escorted Shen Qingzhou out of the palace. He was raised in a separate garden. If he wasn't very important to him, he wouldn't have been able to hide him secretly." Qingluan narrowed his eyes and hid in the dark with Xingyi.
observe.
If Chaoyang wanted to attack Shen Qingzhou, he would naturally have to look for Shen Qingzhou's weaknesses in every aspect.
What is the background of this eunuch who was hidden outside the palace by Shen Qingzhou?
…
Jingli Mansion.
"Commander Jing, you look very bad. The Queen specially asked us to send you medicine." Shen Yunrou's lobbyist was in the main hall, and her words were full of meaning. "Commander Jing has been following His Majesty for so many years, but His Majesty does not trust you."
"Go back and tell the queen to thank her for her kindness. Jing Li knows he is guilty and will accept his punishment." Jing Li said coldly and saw off the guests.
A few people frowned. They had lost His Majesty as their backer. If they wanted to survive in the imperial city, they didn't know how to be smart or put on airs.
After a few people left, Jing Li coughed softly, and the wound on his back hurt badly.
The figure was a little shaken, Jing Li's injury was somewhat infected, and he had a fever.
His eyes suddenly darkened, and Jing Li stood up to deliver dinner to Murong Ling.
Shen Yunrou, a smart person, would definitely not believe it if she was shaken the first time he came to the door.
Only when she finds it extremely difficult to convince herself will she really believe it.
Your Majesty is right, Shen Yunrou is the breakthrough point and the only breakthrough point against Shen Qingzhou.
Judging from Shen Qingzhou's connections in the court and his network in Kyoto in recent years, it would be too difficult to deal with Shen Qingzhou directly.
Holding great power, approaching the imperial power, Shen Qingzhou is now the only one in power, just like the eldest son's family back then.
However, the eldest son's family has intricate roots and a large number of descendants, which penetrate into every official position in Fengtian and affect the whole body.
But this is the long-lasting benefit of the Changsun family, and it is also the fatal weakness of the Changsun family.
And Shen Qingzhou is obviously smarter than the head of the eldest grandson family back then.
He knew very well what it meant to assess the situation, and he knew even more clearly that he was alone but had many customers.
Xiao Junze couldn't move him, and he didn't dare to move him for the time being.
…
In the dark night, several figures ran towards the palace. The night was cold and the air was freezing.
Imperial Palace, Changchun Garden.
Chaoyang woke up from the cold and shivered. It was obviously the beginning of summer, but it was still cold in Fengtian and Kyoto at night, which was a bit strange.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Chaoyang was surprised that he fell asleep on the ground.
"jingle……"
Suddenly, Chaoyang stood up alertly and listened in the distance.
There is a sound of silver bells striking.
This voice was extremely familiar to Chaoyang.
Her mother, Baili...
Baili wears a silver bell on his ankle all year round. It is an accessory that everyone who comes from Anmei Tower wears.
There are white raccoons, and there are also worshipers.
The silver bell is used to ward off poison and can also drive away poisonous insects and poisonous poison. It is used by Anmei Tower to restrain Southern Xinjiang.
The sound of the silver bells hitting each other is very clear, and most people won't be able to hear the difference, but Chaoyang can...
This ringtone is not for worshiping the moon.
He opened the door in a panic, Chaoyang ran out and almost tripped over Xiao Junze who was lying "corpse" outside the door.
Cursing secretly, Chaoyang turned around and saw Xiao Junze still huddled at the door.
"Queen mother..."
Xiao Junze seemed to have had a nightmare and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Chaoyang stepped forward and touched Xiao Junze's forehead. He had a fever.
"If we don't take your Majesty back, who will be responsible if he dies of illness?" Chaoyang said coldly, addressing the secret guard in the dark.
Obviously, Xiao Junze must have told him something. None of the secret guards dared to show up to take care of Xiao Junze.
Chaoyang glanced sideways at Xiao Junze. With the secret guards around, there should be no problem...
Without thinking much, Chaoyang left quickly, chasing the direction of the sound of the silver bell.
Ever since Xingyi said that her mother might not be dead, Chaoyang always had nightmares at night, dreaming that Baili suddenly appeared, slapped her hard in the face, and asked her why she wanted to go back to Fengtian again.
…
As soon as Chaoyang left, a maid walked into Changchun Garden with a lamp on.
The dagger slipped out of her sleeve, and the maid walked towards Xiao Junze with murderous intent.
Obviously, this is to divert the tiger away from the mountain.
…
Harem, hot spring.
Chaoyang chased the ringing sound to the hot spring area, but there was no more sound.
Looking around cautiously, Chaoyang saw a string of silver bells next to the rockery.
Picking up the silver bell with trembling fingers, Chaoyang turned around in horror and looked around, his eyes instantly turning red.
It was a silver bell that her mother wore on her ankle until she died and never took it off.
It's Baili's silver bell.
The silver bell of Anmei Tower cannot be imitated. The patterns and engravings on it remind Chaoyang that this is the silver bell on Bai Li's ankle.
"Mom..." Chaoyang looked around, his whole body trembling.
