Chapter 454: The Storm Rises (26)
Outside the inner hall of Shaohua Palace, several palace people gathered together to keep warm.
Although it is not yet winter, it is still cold at night, and people who are cold can't wait to shiver. Because there have been a lot of things in the palace recently, there is no time in the palace to make winter clothes for the palace people.
"Although it is not good to say that the emperor is said to be so, I always feel that Concubine De is also a poor person........"
"Who's to say it isn't. It's the same for everyone. Being stared at like this, being watched every day, knowing that you have to pretend to be very happy....... you won't be comfortable with anyone......."
"The important thing is that the emperor will do this, forget it, and pretend to love Concubine De in front of outsiders, and make Concubine Li over there jealous...... Sometimes, a man's heart is the needle under the sea......."
Although he is the most shrewd group of palace people under Cheng Qing, he has nothing to do on weekdays, and it is normal to talk about gossip.
Tonight is definitely the best time to gossip. Concubine De is not in the palace, and there is no trace of her, the emperor is busy picking up the wind and washing the dust for the ghost-faced general, and even the secret guards are probably taking advantage of tonight to be lazy, so there is no need for them to be too nervous.
"But you say, has the emperor really completely eliminated King Rui's power today?"
"Hey, I'll tell you the truth, when I was still on an errand with the emperor, there was often a man in black who would enter and leave the emperor's study, although it was very secret, but we were close to all of us........
"You're too ill-informed, I heard that the identity of the man in black has been known......."
The palace man held the lantern and raised it slightly, shining on her big face, which looked very funny.
"Then what are you selling? Who is that man? ”
"That man is the emperor's twin brother. ”
"What !!"
"Shh
Sure enough, the news of the big-faced woman shocked everyone here. Everyone expressed their shock at the news.
"You..... you're not kidding, are you?"
"At that banquet today, it was my little sister who was served. She told me in person today that she had heard the man confess that he was the emperor's brother. ”
"This is too mysterious........"
A group of palace people sighed there. Such news is too exciting for them.
Not to mention that Cheng Qing's mother is the founding princess of the country, a product of her brother **, she even gave birth to a pair of twins. If these twins are in the people, it is fine, but in the royal family, it is the most ominous omen. Since ancient times, twins have not been allowed in the palace.
"You say that this will give birth to a pair of twins, is it because the sin is too great........
"Hey, don't talk about it yet, beware of the ears on the wall...... It's just that we're too bored to talk about today, let's just talk about it, don't talk about it, it's going to lose your head........"
"Oh, don't worry, this kind of thing ........"
The palace people all expressed their determination that they would not spread the matter even if they died. The Mi Xin people in the palace can just chat after tea and dinner, if they take it seriously, they don't know how they will die at that time. The dark history of the superiors is what they can say.
"Guys, take a sip of hot water, it's so cold, I've been standing here, my legs are frozen. ”
The big-faced palace man held a pot of hot water in her hand, and she held the lantern to pour water for the palace people one by one.
"Come on, come on, you drink a little too, these hands are cold........
"Hey, where did you get the hot water, didn't you just stand here all the time?"
"Just now, I went outside to get it, I think they have guards, we can't do without it. ”
"That's right. ”
After listening to the words of the big-faced palace people, the palace people finally put their minds at ease and began to drink.
"Hey, I have to say, this hot water is really delicious. On this cold day, after a cup, people are warm. ”
"yes, yes......."
"But, guys, it's weird, I'm a little dizzy......"
"I....I'm ...... too"
"I ....... too"
After a "bang", the palace people who were originally standing outside the inner hall fell to the ground one by one.
In the cold wind, the big-faced palace man was still standing there, and the teapot in his hand emitted a dim light.
"Isn't it...... Are you really just a drug?"
Xia Qing came out lightly from behind the pillar, wearing a palace person's linen robe.
"Of course, it's just a drug, but the effect of the medicine is very good, and you won't wake up for a while........"
The big-faced palace man threw the teapot aside, took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands carefully,
"Come on, time is running out. ”
"No, do you really want to go in and find something like this?"
"Not so. No, if someone comes, it's going to be troublesome. And this dress ...... Well....women's clothes are still good. ”
"Poof........
Xia Qing resisted the urge to laugh, the important thing now is to go in and find something.
"Let's go. Get it done early, go save people early. ”
"Good. ”
She stretched out her hand, and the big-faced palace man was stunned for a moment, "Come on together, it's a hundred times." ”
………
The decoration of the inner sanctum is only more luxurious than the outside. But because it was night, and no one was there, it was pitch black inside, and there was not a trace of light. Xia Qing was just about to find out the fire fold when he was stopped by Bai Youshi.
"Why don't you order this now and tell the people outside that there is someone inside........
"Oh yes. I didn't expect that, but luckily you were also ........ at the time of Baiyu."
“.…….”
Bai Youshi looked at Xia Qing, her serious face didn't look like she was pretending at all.
Well, she's really stupid.
"You're ..... really, very simple......"
I couldn't find a better word than that word. Just say that she is stupid, she should be beaten by her.
Xia Qing smiled awkwardly, and carefully put the fire fold back into his arms, so that he would not let Bai Yu Shi see it,
"Okay, okay, let's find it. ”
Since her eyes were instilled with internal force by Qianmo, they are much more transparent than before, and even her ear power, sense of smell, and all five senses are much better than before.
Therefore, even if she has not learned martial arts, but the elite five senses that practitioners have, she will not lose.
"So, I'll go over there, and you go there. If there's anything unusual, run immediately, got it?"
"What could be out of the ordinary. Don't worry, I've got it. ”
Xia Qing patted Bai Youshi on the shoulder and smiled brightly, "As long as you can find it, it's fine." That's it......."
The place she was responsible for finding was Concubine De's bedroom.
As a concubine's concubine, the dormitory is also completely in line with the style of a concubine, and there will be no less of the same, and it has to be much more than other concubines.
A small dormitory can be said to be full of things. Xia Qing almost tripped several times.
"Ah, damn it!"
Another thing tripped Xia Qing heavily, she was able to stabilize her body and touched the dust in her hand.
"It's .........."
