The war is imminent, according to the law of etiquette, Xun Shaoling let Qin Tianjian make up a hexagram, and got the auspicious day of the seventh day of the first month, went to the temple to worship the ancestors, and the Empress Dowager Wei also went to the ceremony. Recently, the Empress Dowager Wei dreamed of the first emperor many times, and missed even more sleepless nights, after telling the prince Jingcheng, the prince of Jingcheng suggested that she take advantage of the time to go to the temple to worship her ancestors, she might as well go to the palace next to the tomb of the first emperor to live and chant for the first emperor for two days, which is exactly what she wants. The Empress Dowager Wei wanted to stay and chant for the first emperor, and Xun Shaoling also stayed to accompany her.

On the day that Empress Dowager Wei and Xun Shaoling left the palace, Tang Jianyi, who guessed that Shangguan Tianyuan would definitely take action, "happened" to meet Shangguan Tianyuan, who had entered the inner palace, when he was inspecting the palace.

Shangguan Tianyuan belongs to the foreign ministers, if he is not summoned, his activities in the palace are only Wan Chaozong and Tianhua Palace, so it is really inappropriate to enter the inner palace without permission, but he is also helpless.

On this day, Tang Jianyi persuaded Xue Cheng, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, to increase the patrol team of several shifts on the grounds that the emperor and queen were not in the palace and should strengthen the vigilance of the harem. At noon, the third patrol to Baohua Palace, not far in front of the Jade Palace, Tang Jianyi really saw Shangguan Tianyuan, he prompted Xue Cheng to step forward and ask Shangguan Tianyuan. Seeing Xue Cheng, Shangguan Tianyuan was calm, and after saluting, Shangguan Tianyuan smiled: "Isn't this the time for the Imperial Forest Army to change guards and rest at noon?

Xue Cheng saluted: "Yes, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are not in the palace, so I have to be more vigilant and dare not take it lightly." However, what is the purpose of the elder entering the inner palace at this time?"

Shangguan Tianyuan said: "The old man wants to inspect the secret guards in the inner palace to see if there are any secret guards who are negligent in their duties, because it is a surprise and sudden inspection, there is no request, and I hope that Commander Xue will forgive me if there is something wrong, and when Your Majesty returns to the court, the old man will go to explain to Your Majesty." ”

"It doesn't matter. Commander Xue waved his hand again and again: "The elder is also doing official business, and it is understandable that he is lowly and lowly." ”

After speaking, they dispersed, and Shangguan Tianyuan and the Imperial Forest Army went against each other. Tang Jian glanced back a few times, but he no longer saw Shangguan Tianyuan's aged back, Xue Cheng saw him showing an abnormal expression, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Tang Jianyi hesitated for a moment before saying, "I seem to have seen Elder Tianyuan just now...... Entered the Jade Palace. ”

"What??," Xue Cheng was surprised.

"Maybe I'm wrong, Elder Tianyuan jumped like that, and I don't know where he fell......" Tang Jian looked at Xue Cheng, and then whispered to him: "But Commander, I think that no matter what, after Your Majesty returns to the palace, the Commander will go to report today's matter to Your Majesty in time, no need to deliberately say it, just mention to Your Majesty that there is such a thing, you don't say that if Your Majesty knows, although he will not blame Elder Tianyuan, he will definitely blame the Imperial Forest Army for dereliction of duty." ”

Xue Cheng seemed to be right when he heard this, so he nodded in agreement.

On that day, Zhou Jinse invited Weiyang to the Jade Mullion Palace to taste tea, Weiyang and Ruyi did not bring the palace people who accompanied them, and the master and servant walked to the Splendid Palace alone, Ruyi was slightly uneven, and complained in a low voice: "She is really proud, since she was favored, she has shown off in every way, and she doesn't put you in her eyes at all, and she is too lazy to run to the Splendid Palace, and directly call a palace maid to recruit you over, hum, it's really infuriating! Sure enough, there can be no pure and good people in this harem, and you still treat her so well when you first met." ”

Seeing Ruyi's indignant appearance, Weiyang chuckled: "If she is proud, let her be proud, right? How many days can she be proud? When she is not committed to her duties and intentions, it is equivalent to being wasted." How favored she is at this time, how much Xun Shaoling will hate her in the future. ”

"But what if Xun Shaoling tolerates her?" Ruyi asked.

"No way. Xun Shaoling is now having a dream in the Jade Linge Palace, and when this dream is shattered, who will he hate the most? Is it the person who pierced the dream or the person who made up this dream?" Weiyang's complexion was light, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Ruyi smiled: "Naturally, it is the person who made up this dream." ”

As soon as they came out of the Splendid Palace, they saw Tang Jianyi leading a part of the Imperial Forest Army to inspect the palace and meet them head-on, and all the troops knelt down to salute: "Concubine Niangniang Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

In fact, Tang Jian was about to find an excuse to get rid of the Imperial Forest Army and go to the Splendid Palace to convey the news to Weiyang, and this happened to happen. As he saluted, he deliberately met Weiyang's gaze for a moment, and pointed a finger at his cuff, indicating that he had something to give her.

Weiyang looked down at Tang Jianyi and said, "Flat." The silk silk in his hand suddenly slipped from between his jade fingers and fell in front of Tang Jian's eyes.

As soon as Tang Jian picked up the silk silk and got up, he glanced at Weiyang faintly, took a step forward, bent down to present the silk silk, and said respectfully: "Niangniang, your silk." ”

Ruyi on Weiyang's side reached out and took it.

Weiyang and Ruyi turned away, and the army behind them bowed again: "Congratulations to Concubine Niangniang!"

Ruyi put the silk back in Weiyang's hands, Weiyang opened it and looked at it, there was a small package of medicinal powder inside, and two words were written on the paper of the medicinal powder, "close the net".

"Ruyi, it's time for us to act. Weiyang looked at the medicinal powder in his hand and said.

Ruyi met her gaze and bowed his head: "Yes." ”

Weiyang covered it with her water sleeve, sniffed the medicine bag, and recognized what it was, her willow eyebrows frowned, and a touch of gloom flashed in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Ruyi asked.

Weiyang shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just didn't expect that they could get such a unique thing." I thought no one could match it now......"

Ruyi smiled: "In that case, this can't be wasted. ”

Shangguan Tianyuan did enter the Jade Linge Palace, he looked at the inconspicuous corner, and when the palace people withdrew from the main hall, he went to the apse window and knocked on the edge of the window a few times, and there was a long pause, representing the code words of the Wan Dynasty Sect, "The sect master has arrived."

After knocking twice, the person inside opened the window and said tremblingly, "Elder...... Elder, why are you here?"

Zhou Jinse stood behind the window, and when he saw Shangguan Tianyuan, his face was pale, his eyes did not dare to look directly, and his face was full of weakness and panic.

Shangguan Tianyuan's face turned pale, and he said angrily: "Shouldn't the old man kneel down for you to perform the thousand-year-old ceremony?"

"Elder...... Jin Se didn't dare, so he asked the elders to forgive him. Zhou Jinse flew out of the window, facing Shangguan Tianyuan in a remote corner, knelt down, and begged for mercy in a panic.

Shangguan Tianyuan suppressed his voice and scolded her: "Don't you dare? Why don't you dare? When you chose a concubine for Your Majesty, the Elders of Yixin asked you to also run for the election, in order to supervise the show girls when choosing a concubine to ensure that there was no Nanke Xiaozuo during the selection of concubines, and you should only secretly investigate to defend the Qingning of the harem, and according to the rules, you must not have contact with Your Majesty! The old man only ordered you to approach Concubine Yan to supervise her! And you even forgot your identity and responsibility as a concubine! Compete with Concubine Yan for favor, and be a mother here to deceive the emperor's favor and betray the sect! You are so bold!"

Zhou Jinse kowtowed again and again, "Elder, Elder forgive your sins!" Jin Se had no intention of competing for favor before, so he kept his humble position, but just as he was about to complete the task, he received an order from you, Elder, to approach Concubine Yan...... It's nothing, but the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother noticed me, and it was the Queen Mother who asked me to serve Your Majesty, and Jin Se had no choice but to agree......"

"Presumptuous! Still quibbling! Do you think that the old man doesn't know that you are greedy for the emperor's favor! Otherwise, when the Queen Mother misunderstood you, you should have taken the initiative to tell the old man, why did you delay it to this day! You have also used it several times and three times to find out what the people in the sect have not seen, and you will not be able to find out anything about the concubine! This is clearly a betrayal of the sect! Do you know? Where are you putting the Wan Chao Sect in this way? Where are you putting the old man? If His Majesty knew that you were Wan Chaozong's meticulous work, His Majesty would definitely think that Wan Chaozong had planted eyeliner beside him, which was a taboo that Wan Chaozong had always been compatible with the monarch!" Who would have thought that when Zhou Jinse was favored, the most worried thing was not Weiyang, nor the harem concubines, but Shangguan Tianyuan.

Zhou Jinse burst into tears, but under Shangguan Tianyuan's scolding, she gradually suppressed her emotions, as if she suddenly realized something, wiped her tears and got up, her apology was no longer there, her tone became quite confident, and said, "No, Elder, Your Majesty will not know." ”

"Why?" Seeing her like this, Shangguan Tianyuan was a little surprised.

She raised her head, her face calm and arrogant, "Because Elder, you will not tell Your Majesty, and you will also allow me to disassociate myself from the Ten Thousand Dynasty Sect and help me hide all this." ”

"Ridiculous! How can the old man help you! Wait for His Majesty to return to the palace......"

Without waiting for Shangguan Tianyuan to finish speaking, Zhou Jinse threw out a word, which immediately made him dumbfounded, now he didn't bring a scepter, his body trembled, and he almost lost his stability, and only spoke after a long time, "Hand over your Ten Thousand Dynasty Sect Decree Talisman." ”

Like Luo Yunmen's square white jade nameplate, Wan Chaozong's round bronze order talisman is the status symbol of Wan Chaozong's fine works, and it proves that Shangguan Tianyuan really compromised, and he asked her to hand over the talisman to agree that she would disassociate herself from Wan Chaozong.

Zhou Jinse's tear-stained face suddenly showed a smug joy, and said: "The talisman is hidden in the dormitory, ......."

"Concubine Niangniang is coming to the Jade Palace!"

Zhou Jinse still didn't panic, glanced back, and continued: "Elder, this palace is going to entertain guests, you can go by yourself, the palace will find a chance to return it to Wan Chaozong." ”

Shangguan Tianyuan took one last look at her, his eyes were lonely, and his old face looked cold and there was a kind of helpless sadness, and said, "Okay." Empress...... Hello for yourself. ”

Zhou Jinse protected his lower abdomen, quickly turned over and returned to the window, and replied arrogantly: "Elder, you can do it yourself. Then he closed the window.

Zhou Jinse did not call the palace people, but personally opened the door of the palace and invited Weiyang into the palace with a smile.

After seeing each other, the two sat down, the palace maid set up the tea set, Weiyang seemed very interested, made tea in person, and talked with Zhou Jinse about the newly learned tea art recently.

Weiyang looked at her face while washing the leaves with water, and said, "Sister, what's wrong? Why does it look like you've just cried?"

Zhou Jinse wiped his face and said with a smile, "No, it's because I woke up from a nap, and I don't want my sister to come so early, and I haven't had time to sort out my makeup." ”

"I see...... she shook the teapot lightly, mixed the brown evenly, poured the fragrant tea into the thin white porcelain cup, and touched her fingertips, and some fine powder fell into the tea without a trace in the nail caps painted with phoenix tails, and melted away with the warm tea.

Zhou Jinse's gaze swept her calm and gentle eyebrows, and he pretended to rub his head and said, "Actually, it's also a little uncomfortable......"

Weiyang put the tea in front of her: "What's wrong with my sister?

She said: "It's just a little dizzy and nauseous, and I can't eat lately." The Imperial Physician has not yet been passed on...... Eh, didn't my sister say last time that you would take the pulse? Why don't you take a look at it for me, I want to see my sister's skills. ”

Zhou Jinse smiled and stretched out his white wrist in front of Weiyang, Weiyang looked at her and put down the tea set in his hand, "Okay." Her fingers touched Zhou Jinse's pulse, stayed for a moment, and instantly her heart was shocked, and she couldn't hide the surprise on her face.

This is exactly what Zhou Jin wanted to see, and she deliberately asked, "What's wrong?" Sister, what disease do I have?"

Weiyang stiffly withdrew her hand, a little out of her body, this was really her truest reaction at this time, her stunned and confused gaze fell on the tea in front of Zhou Jinse, and said with difficulty: "Aren't you suffering from any disease...... It's a joy ......."

"Really? How could it be...... Sister Concubine Yan, do I really have it? No wonder I've been dizzy and vomiting recently......" Zhou Jinse was very surprised, pretending to be presentable.

Weiyang couldn't pretend to be out, she fell into deep thought, at a loss, and her eyes stayed on the tea in front of Zhou Jinse.

Zhou Jinse saw her like this, and felt even more proud, "When the Queen Mother and Her Majesty return to the palace, ...... know the news."

"You will be very happy...... Weiyang suddenly spoke up, saying something that he was unconscious, "Your Majesty and the Queen Mother will definitely be very happy." "She didn't know what she was talking about, what to say.

Zhou Jinse glanced at her strangely and nodded slightly, "Hmm." ”

"The tea is almost cold, and I haven't had time to taste it, it's a fragrant tea." Zhou Jinse smiled and wanted to reach out to hold the porcelain cup.

Weiyang was startled, completely out of proportion, all subconsciously grabbed ahead of her, reached out to grab the porcelain cup, the cup was broken by her, the tea spilled on the table, Zhou Jinse was startled by her.

"You can't drink it!" Weiyang shouted with a frightened glare.

Zhou Jinse's tone changed and he questioned: "Why can't I drink it?"

The latter was like this, so he hurriedly stepped forward, wiped the tea on the table with a silk silk, and explained to Weiyang: "Concubine Jin Niangniang is frightened, Concubine Niangniang means that this cup of tea has been left for a while, and it is cold, now Concubine Jin, you like to conceive a dragon, it is not good to drink herbal tea, and you should drink hot when the weather is cold." Ruyi pressed Weiyang's shoulder to remind her to steady, "Concubine Niangniang, right?"

Weiyang was still a little distracted, and nodded slowly: "Yes, yes, it's not good to drink herbal tea, I'm too nervous about Sister Jinfei, and I suddenly learned of such a big joy, I'm still in a trance, this time I scared Sister Jinfei, my sister is fine, right?"

Zhou Jinse seemed suspicious and shook his head: "It's okay." His eyes wandered around the wet tabletop, and then turned to the master and servant in front of him.

Ruyi wiped the table dry, cleaned up the broken porcelain, stepped aside and said: "Concubine Niangniang, forgive the slave and maid for talking too much, Concubine Jin Niangniang is so happy, Niangniang should congratulate ...... with courtesy."

Weiyang understood what she meant, and reluctantly smiled: "Yes, it's still thoughtful, I'll go and prepare a congratulatory gift for my sister, my sister will take care of her life, I'll go first." ”

Weiyang got up and said goodbye to Zhou Jinse, Ruyi could see it accurately, she herself also understood that she was almost unable to control herself at this time, and if she stayed in front of Zhou Jinse, she would definitely be more abnormal, so it was best to retreat early.

After Weiyang and Ruyi left, Zhou Jinse's demeanor swept away the previous simple and lovely aura, revealing sharpness and ruthlessness, she tried the tea in the teapot with a silver hairpin, and also tried the undried water stains on the table, but it was not poisonous, and it was expected that Weiyang was shocked and panicked because she had happy news.

When Weiyang was going to give her the world's strange poison Qing Huansan, when she learned to poison with Cheng Huang Shitai, Weiyang mastered the toxicity of all kinds of poisons in the world, what poison is used and what she knows when she smells it, and she knows how much to use to kill people. Mrs. Cheng Huang once specially told her and Jianing about Qing Huansan, which is a strange poison in the world, which is white powder before use, with a special orchid fragrance, but after blending with water, it is colorless and tasteless, and the poison test cannot be tested. People who have been hit by Qing Huan San will not have obvious symptoms of poisoning, nor will they die immediately, the less the dosage will die later, but no matter how much they use, they will definitely die, and there is no antidote.

So far, no one knows who initiated Qing Huansan, this poison was once lost, and just more than 20 years ago, Tan Zongde, who traveled all over the world to preach in all directions, got a strange book, which recorded the matching method of Qing Huansan, he burned the book, and he never forgot the matching method. Later, he also reformed the blending method and turned the poison Qinghuan San into a more practical medicine, Qing Soul San, which was used by Luo Yunmen. There are few people in this world who can deploy Qinghuansan. But there are still a few people, such as Shen Donglai, who was taught by Mr. Tan. I don't know if it's true or not, it is rumored that Shangguan Tianyuan also deserved Qing Huansan.

At this time, it was really Zhou Jinse's most relaxed time, and in just half a day, she eliminated two major troubles. Before, she was uneasy all day long because of her detailed identity, afraid that Shangguan Tianyuan would criticize her, but now she said everything, since she was pregnant with a dragon son, and the wood was already in the boat, what else could Shangguan Tianyuan do? She guessed that as Xun Shaoling's master, Shangguan Tianyuan would never do anything harmful to the emperor's heir, this was Xun Shaoling's first child, sure enough, Shangguan Tianyuan really compromised, let her break away from the Wanchao Sect, and be a mother with peace of mind. And such a piece of news can scare Weiyang like that, she can be regarded as relieved, before she hated Weiyang the most Xun Shaoling's heart, and now she is the first child in Xun Shaoling's arms, how can Weiyang's status be guaranteed? I think she will be the first person among the concubines in the future.

Zhou Jinse seemed to see her proud future, and her heart was happy.
