Since the prince asked about the Buddha statue, Cao Xiwan respectfully replied: "When I returned to Qiansui, I brought the Buddha statue. Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou ordered my daughter to present the Buddha statue to His Highness the Prince."
Mother Bai put the Buddha statue on the table, and Cao Xi went to bed at night, took the gold five things from her waist, and imitated Mrs. Hou's example of using a gold needle to open the machine.
Mother Bai watched as Cao Xiwan pricked the Buddha's eyes with golden needles, three on the left and seven on the right.
With a slight sound, the Buddha statue split from its arm, revealing the mechanism inside.
The prince and Liang Di both exclaimed in surprise.
When the two nobles were looking at the Buddha statue, she stepped back and gestured to Lu Xiuyun to indicate that she had to leave in a hurry. Lu Xiuyun nodded slightly. She retreated to the palace corridor and turned around, and sure enough, Lady Bai followed her out. She quietly greeted them.
Mother Bai said something: "Mom, please keep an eye on the calf eunuch who has just entered the palace. Don't let him out of sight."
"How long?" Ms. Bai said without blinking.
"An hour."
She walked out of the palace wall, followed the cobweb-like underground river of Jinling City, and hurried back to Nankang Hou Mansion.
The secret door was in the study outside. Today, the Marquis returned to the main room to rest. Granny Song and Mr. Chen followed to guard the inner house. There was a slight movement, and Qin Meng, who was guarding the study outside, opened his eyes and jumped down from the beam.
In the darkness, he saw the mechanism behind the red sandalwood bookshelf open and a female figure rush out.
It's Qingluo.
"What's wrong?"
While he was still speaking, he saw her passing by her as fast as a shooting star. It almost made his eyes dazzled.
He was shocked.
Is this her true "sword power"?
In the corridor, the moonlight was like flowing water, and the ripples were piled on the snow. She flew past like a silvery white light, almost without moving, and rushed straight out. Her legs were still straight.
Today she entered the palace, wearing a floor-length plain silk cloak. She also boasted to Xiuyun that although she was a patient, she was well-maintained, lazy as mud, and her hair was so shiny that she would definitely be looked down upon by Yingying and Yanyan.
Shunyan suspected that she was pretending to be ill, so she wore a Guanyin hooded hat on her head, which was also made of plain silk. It was draped up to her arms, revealing only her plain eyebrows and facial features. This outfit was like the portrait of Guanyin. It showed that she respected the Buddha.
Pious.
But this plain color is an extremely arrogant color in the dark. It is extremely eye-catching.
When the cloak flies up, you can see that under her green gauze skirt, her legs are straight.
Qin Meng was shocked behind him, was this the Biying Puppet Dance?
Blood Pond Ghost Xiao Qiao can do this, Qin Meng has seen it before, but it is far more like a puppet than the Qingluo female ghost. His speed is far from comparable to hers.
Where is she going?
Qin Meng used the Luohan Demon Subduing Skill and tried his best to catch up.
Then he saw her pause on the porch and turned into a familiar guest house.
In the Luoyuan, the moonlight was clear and cold, and there was no one there. The pine wall in the ear room was still sleeping.
The east wing is the master bedroom.
She opened the window and jumped in. The room was silent. She unceremoniously opened the curtains and saw Liu Ruhai's empty bed. The pillows and quilts were folded and untouched. Tonight, he was dressed in black and entered the palace. Even now
No reply.
She sneered, she was indeed a spy.
When Liu Ruhai exited the palace, Li Shishan's cart was still there.
This was to prevent accidents, but he never expected that he would actually leave the palace. Li Baihu heard the sound of the carriage and turned around to see Liu Ruhai. He was surprised: "General manager?"
Doesn't the steward want to stay in the palace for three years? Is it to keep an eye on His Majesty for King Zhao to see if His Majesty has also been poisoned?
"Go back immediately." Liu Ruhai murmured, and the carriage shook. He felt uneasy when he was in the palace. He didn't know what he was worried about. Is it just because he said goodbye to her without saying goodbye again, and he was worried about what she would think?
No, he was just worried that Mrs. Lou Shuluan would not be able to drive away Cao Xiwan.
On the contrary, it will make her suspicious.
Cao Xiwan did become suspicious.
It's not an accident that Lou Shuluan wanted to drive her away. But the wife's temper was so weird that she even gave the musicians and music troupe to the Marquis. It's not much to have Cao Xiwan for her. At this time of year, it couldn't be the wife who wanted to drive her away.
She leaves.
who is it?
Assassin Liu Ruhai?
Luoyuan.
Qin Meng ducked, landed next to her, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Qin Meng's eyes swept across the empty bed.
Suddenly, she remembered another flaw and hurriedly went out: "I have no strength. Go to the back alley."
Qin Meng held her hand, as light as a dead leaf in front of the Buddha, and rolled over the courtyard wall of the west corner gate. The full moon hung high, the sky was high and the clouds were pale, and fine dust was floating in the world.
She was surprised and secretly rejoiced. Is this the authentic Buddhist mentality?
How should she discuss it with Qin Meng? Can you teach her?
There are people in Liu's yard.
As soon as she landed in the yard, she noticed someone in the bedroom of the east room.
As soon as Liu Ruhai put down the tent, he saw the window pane flying up, and a female ghost in snow clothes broke in.
She landed in front of the bed and stared at him.
Liu Ruhai was so sharp that he could tell at a glance that the ghost in the snow robe was Cao Xiwan in the dark. When he looked at her expression again, his heart skipped a beat.
Something is wrong.
Could it be that he was followed and discovered by her when he entered the palace wall?
But he didn't notice that anyone was following him. Moreover, he had no flaws in front of the emperor. The palace also arranged enough back-up personnel.
Facing the woman in the room, her eyes were sharp and she was staring at him. Liu Ruhai was still secretly glad at this time. He originally wanted to say a few words to her tomorrow as a farewell, so he made an impromptu decision to withdraw from the palace tonight.
Thanks to this, otherwise, he would have been caught red-handed.
Standing outside the window, there was a ghost chirping in the wind. She stood silently and stared at him: "Have you entered the palace?"
"Where did you start talking about this? No." He replied slowly and without trace. He smelled a light and astringent fragrance in the room. He silently judged that the snake fragrance was the medicinal fragrance that he deliberately spread in the corridor.
, she got it. This means that the Qingluo female ghost did enter the corridor tonight, and she did enter the palace tonight like him.
But why did she find out?
He had already hypnotized her. Even if she entered the palace, when she saw him, like all the old friends, she would only see Eunuch Maverick's face instead of Liu Ruhai.
Shoot the palace.
The emperor returned to the palace.
Female official Bai hid in the darkness and looked at the eunuch Mavericks who was accompanying him in the ceremony.
He was the third person following His Majesty, holding a palace lantern in his hand, and did not violate any palace rules.
Moreover, this is not the first time that Eunuch Maverick has entered the palace. He became a monk at the Taoist Temple at the foot of Purple Mountain. Zijin Temple is a Taoist temple in the Imperial Temple, and His Majesty also went to offer incense and talk with him.
A few years ago, during the filial piety period when Emperor Xingwu passed away, when the temple master was ordered to enter the palace as the place where the late emperor performed his rituals, he also entered the palace with his attendants. Your Majesty liked to listen to him explain the Taoist scriptures. This is an old man who knows everything about the emperor.
Otherwise, how could any outsider enter the palace in one fell swoop and be close enough to serve the emperor?
But Aunt Bai did not doubt that Cao Xiwan was talking nonsense.
Qingluo female ghost is also an old man in front of the emperor.
She followed the Marquis of Nankang and made great contributions to Emperor Taizu Xingwu. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she failed to catch up with the first two of the three major rebellions of the heroes, but she could not catch up with the third and most dangerous rebellion of the Liang Kingdom.
Or missing.
Without the Qingluo female ghost, it would be impossible to wipe out the rebels smoothly.
Although she is a woman, she once accompanied Qianhu of the Song Dynasty to guard the Qianhu of Chengtian Gate and met the driver several times. In the Leopard Room of the palace, foreign envoys from the Western Regions presented elephants and bears to Emperor Xingwu. The holy driver was assassinated, and she
He also had the merit of rescuing a chariot and was given royal medicine.
Even the big stalls in the Wu Laodang group cannot compare to Qing Luo in terms of qualifications.
She would not doubt Maverick Eunuch for no reason.
Maybe it's because Eunuch Mavericks is not good-looking? Aunt Bai looked at it and found that her eyes were a little small and her skin was a little yellow. She also looked older. Although she was in her twenties, she was definitely not the type that Qing Luo liked.
Qing Luo likes pretty boys in blue shirts like Zhan Bai Dao.
