There were also graceful and slender palace ladies who shuttled in and out of the palace, presenting fine wines and delicacies in an orderly manner.
The princes, princes and clan ministers each held wine cups and drank wine among each other.
Luo Jiuli sat next to Xiao Mingxuan, a little puzzled that the fifth princess had been obsessed with Xiao Mingxuan just a moment ago and wanted to marry into the Ninth Prince's Palace.
At the last moment, the emperor offered her a marriage to King Zhao, and she did not object at all. Could it be that Xiao Mingxuan was not her ultimate mission?
While she was deep in thought, someone seemed to stand up behind the female family members.
She looked over casually and saw Hu Hanyu leaving the table and walking out with his head lowered.
Luo Jiuli lowered his eyes, a dark light flashed in his eyes, and he cursed in his heart.
Has the game finally begun?
She reached out and tugged on Xiao Mingxuan's clothes and winked at him.
Xiao Mingxuan nodded calmly and said in a voice that only two people could hear:
"be careful."
"Um."
After saying these words, Luo Jiuli left the table and walked out without waiting for Xiao Mingxuan's response.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the hall, Nan Xing, who had been waiting in the dark, appeared.
"master."
"Where's Nan Zhu?"
"Follow me."
"Well, let's go."
"yes."
The master and servant went down the stone steps of the Hall of Supreme Harmony and went to a beautiful attic in a secluded part of the back garden.
This loft is located on the south side of the Plum Garden, and it only takes half a day to walk.
Here, tea has been arranged on the roof of the attic, where you can overlook the scenery of the Plum Garden and see every move outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Nan Xing, when do you think they will take action?"
Luo Jiuli was sitting on a wicker chair, wrapped in a thick fox fur cloak, looking at the brightly lit Hall of Supreme Harmony in the distance.
Nan Xing stood on Luo Jiuli's side, shielding her from the cold wind.
"Based on the slave's opinion, there should be someone in the palace who has been monitoring the master's movements. As soon as the master leaves, they may be able to take action against the prince."
"Hmph! You don't overestimate your capabilities."
Luo Jiuli shook his head and rubbed the stove in his hand.
Under the attic, there was the sound of pedaling, followed by the sound of Nanzhu.
"Master, it turns out that Hu Hanyu really went to find Lu Mingxin."
When Luo Jiuli heard this, his brows slowly turned into a thin layer of cool and mocking color.
"In this case, let's end it as soon as possible."
Nan Xing frowned.
"This woman from the Hu family, young or old, is really disgusting."
"We feel disgusted, but they think this is a normal thing. They don't care about any means, even dirty, dark, dirty and despicable means, as long as they can achieve their goals."
Luo Jiuli sighed, slowly leaned on the wicker chair, closed his eyes and said again:
"It's really hard to deal with these rats in the gutter at night."
At this time, Luo Jiuli was not the only one who was in a bad mood.
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, after three rounds of drinking, many courtiers had already toasted to Xiao Mingxuan one after another.
Xiao Mingxuan, on the other hand, tried his best to suppress his low pressure and followed these people's show seriously.
Although it seems at this time, the palace is peaceful and peaceful, and everyone is harmless.
However, hidden under such a noisy and joyful surface, how many pretentious intentions are inadvertently leaked from their eyes?
Sure enough, without waiting long, a eunuch slipped into the hall through the door and whispered a few words in Xiao Mingxuan's ear.
Xiao Mingxuan's face turned red, obviously he had drank a lot.
After hearing the eunuch's message, he stood up and followed the people out of the palace gate.
When the emperor saw Xiao Mingxuan leaving, he waved to those around him to follow him and ask what was going on.
Xiao Mingxuan just walked down the steps of Taihe Hall and heard footsteps behind him.
"The Ninth Prince stays."
Xiao Mingxuan turned around and saw that he was Eunuch Qi's young apprentice.
"Ninth Prince, the Emperor sent a servant to ask, where is the Ninth Prince going?"
Xiao Mingxuan pointed at the eunuch.
"Miss Luo Er sent me to look for this king."
When Eunuch Qi's young apprentice heard this, he nodded hurriedly.
"My slave understands."
As he said that, he looked at the eunuch.
"Your Majesty drank a little too much tonight, please serve him carefully."
"Oh! Yes, yes."
The eunuch lowered his head and responded.
Then he carefully led Xiao Mingxuan from the front.
After leaving the Hall of Supreme Harmony, passing through a rockery and walking along a winding path, we saw a palace in a remote place.
As soon as Xiao Mingxuan saw the palace, his breath suddenly became cold.
"Are you sure that Miss Luo Er is here waiting for me?"
The eunuch lowered his head and desperately controlled his trembling fingers.
"Replying to the prince, the second lady is inside, saying that she wants to surprise the prince."
"surprise?"
Xiao Mingxuan remained calm.
"In that case, you don't have to follow."
"yes."
The eunuch looked a little flustered at first, but after hearing what Xiao Mingxuan said, he took a quick breath and stopped.
Xiao Mingxuan took the lantern and strode towards the palace. Within a few steps, he was already in front of it.
He sneered and pushed open the palace door. A lantern hung on a dead tree in the courtyard. There was a room in the palace with dim lights.
Xiao Mingxuan looked at the dim light, his smile flashed slightly, a coldness flashed across his eyes, and there was an awe-inspiring murderous intent in the corner of his mouth.
He reached out and pushed open the door. As the lights suddenly went out, the door was closed with a bang.
At the same time, in another room, a dressed-up woman saw Xiao Mingxuan walking into that room under the faint light of a lantern.
The expression on his face was one of nervousness, excitement and a hint of fear.
And this woman was none other than Hu Hanyu, who had just left the palace banquet.
At this time, Hu Hanyu suppressed his rapid breathing and took out a small bamboo tube from the lapel of his clothes. The bamboo tube was smooth and flat, but it was full of weirdness.
In front of her eyes, Lu Mingxin's smiling and cheerful face appeared when she was holding this small bamboo tube.
"Sister Yu'er, this is a good thing. The Queen Mother personally found it for me. As long as I put this thing on Jiu Wang, he will obey my words and will be loyal to me. Even the bed
Above all, he can only look for me."
"As for that Luo Jiuli, hahaha! She will still be an abandoned woman."
Lu Mingxin not only proudly told her that the bamboo tube contained the famous love poison, but also told her how to use it.
She was even complacent, even if that bitch Luo Jiuli learned the truth, no one would dare to kill her.
Because she is a cultivator, once she dies, the Ninth Prince will definitely die.
The thought of making the Ninth Prince fall in love with her wholeheartedly, the thought of being able to change things with the Ninth Prince right away, the thought that the rise of the Hu family will always depend on her, the thought that Luo Jiuli will be trampled under her feet forever.
Turn over.
The corners of Hu Hanyu's mouth were raised, like a curved knife, cold and cold.
She took a sharp breath and forcefully unscrewed the lid on one side of the bamboo tube...
