All the daily affairs of the Queen Mother are handled, and Shi Lan is not going to do these trivial chores. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shi Lan has a pair of powerful hands, a good hand that can make good tea, and a good hand that can hold a good sword.

However, her hands are not of much use on weekdays, in recent years, the Queen Mother's regime is stable and no longer needs her to fly swords to kill, what she needs is to stand behind Wei Ruoshui, silent, listening, occasionally handing tea to quench her thirst, and occasionally pressing on the acupuncture points to relieve Wei Ruoshui's headache that has not healed for many years.

She had too much time, even enough to think about whether her life would always be so peaceful until she grew old with Wei Ruoshui, and then buried under the loess with countless secrets.

It wasn't until Hou San'er appeared that she knew that the next days would not be so simple.

The young eunuch cautiously and respectfully asked for a sentence, Shi Lan did not help him, and stood up as a matter of course to accept it, which made Hou San'er, who sneaked out on the night of the emperor's birthday banquet, a little dissatisfied.

But Hou San'er must hide this dissatisfaction well, although he is the nominal emperor's close attendant, but everyone knows that the real power in the Wei Palace is the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager's henchmen have the right to speak, sometimes even greater than the emperor's.

After all, Shi Lan doesn't talk useless nonsense on weekdays, and once she speaks, something must happen.

"Aunt Shilan, there is one thing that the little slave doesn't know whether to talk about or not. ”

Hou San'er pondered for a few times, said tentatively, and secretly took the corner of his eye to check Shi Lan's expression. He sneaked to the Tzu Chi Palace on the night of the birthday banquet to find Shi Lan, and he thought that Shi Lan would not pay attention to him, because the Empress Dowager ordered that no one should be disturbed again tonight. But as soon as she heard that it was about Her Majesty, Shi Lan immediately covered the door of the room and walked out of the door of the Queen Mother's Palace, and did not speak, but took him to this side room, glanced at it lightly on the spot, and motioned him to explain what was going on.

For some reason, Hou San'er remembered Si Kouzhun's style. He wiped his sweat again, squeezed out a smile, and explained the purpose of his visit:

"It's nothing, Your Majesty asked the old slave for a visit to the Hall of Eternal Life a few days ago, and the old slave naturally didn't dare to ask about the matter of the Son of Heaven, but Your Majesty has always been ...... Wild and unexpected, so the little slave here......"

Shi Lan's eyes were cold, and she immediately interrupted him and asked, "What about Your Majesty?"

"Here, when the little slave came, His Majesty was at the birthday banquet, and there were several elders present......

Before Hou San'er finished speaking, there was a report outside the door, Shi Lan waved his hand to let people in, and the guards at the door reported the news that the little emperor was drunk as soon as he drank it, and then bowed out of the door, obviously used to Shi Lan's nature of not saying much.

Shi Lan's face was as cold as ever, but Hou San'er inexplicably felt as if it was much gloomy.

"You go back. Shi Lan walked out, paused, and continued to walk out and said, "The Queen Mother is tired, go and guard, and no one is allowed to enter." ”

Hou San'er hurriedly bowed, walked a few steps behind Shi Lan to the palace gate, and was just about to raise his head to ask a few more words, how do you know that when she looks forward, how can there be Shi Lan's figure, only to see a black figure swept past the corner of the eaves, and disappeared in an instant.

Hou San'er immediately lowered his head to wipe his cold sweat, and when he looked up again, he straightened his waist and walked towards the main gate of Tzu Chi Palace.

Before he met the imperial guard guarding the door, he swept away the nervousness on his face, and took out the usual self-contained and unconsciously revealed a flattering smile, and the guard on duty took the lead in greeting, Hou San'er nodded with a smile, stood with the imperial guard on duty with his hands in his sleeve, in case the thief stabbed.

"My lord, why is the Tzu Chi Palace on duty, it seems to be far away from the palace?"

It was the first time that Hou San'er observed the imperial guards of Tzu Chi Palace so carefully at night, and found that the distance from the main hall of Tzu Chi Palace was too far.

"What do you know? By the Queen Mother's side, it is enough to have Miss Shilan. The leader of the imperial guard, Le, laughed, made a silent gesture and said: "It is said that the Queen Mother is stubborn and committed, and she can't make any noise, so she is so far away." A few of our brothers are here, but in fact, we are just guarding against the periphery. ”

"Aunt Shilan is really that powerful?" asked Hou San'er curiously.

The guard's expression froze, and he said mysteriously, "Does my father-in-law know what happened eight years ago?"

Hou San'er's eyelids jumped, and he immediately understood that he was referring to the Sun family's rebellion eight years ago, nodded, and heard the guard continue:

"Back then, I was also the head of a team outside the palace, the surname Sun first killed into the palace, King Jing led the team to rescue, only to find that the subordinate surnamed Sun was near the imperial garden, and two teams were killed, thanks to the palace maid and Gonggong Xu desperately guarding our Great Wei Majesty can now eat and drink well. Tsk, women should not be underestimated......"

"Father-in-law Xu, but is that father-in-law Xu Heng?" asked Hou San'er.

"That's right, speaking of which, I haven't seen Gonggong Xu since he was seriously injured that time, but fortunately, he has to be favored, so that he can stay in the deep palace and enjoy the blessings......"

Hou San'er listened, for some reason he was a little nervous, he looked back at the Tzu Chi Palace, the lights were a little dim, it should be that the Queen Mother was resting, he was thinking like this, his ears trembled, and he looked nervous and turned back to ask the guard: "My lord, did you hear that?"

"What?" asked the guard, scratching the itch on the back of his waist and nonchalantly looking back.

"No, maybe I heard it wrong, it's nothing ......"

Hou San'er said with some hesitation, and looked back at the huge palace with unease—he seemed to have heard a faint cry just now.

But how could there be a cry in the Tzu Chi Palace? He looked at the few crows that were crowing from the corner of the palace house, shook his head, and concentrated on guarding the periphery of the Tzu Chi Palace with the guards, far enough away that he could not hear any sound in the Tzu Chi Palace.

Compared to the cries of the Tzu Chi Palace, Shi Lan's mind is now more focused on the Hall of Eternal Life.

She knew that Lian Li's series of actions clearly informed her of her whereabouts.

It's really not worry-free.

Shi Lan still looked indifferent, but the color at the bottom of her eyes was more intense. Thinking of the little emperor with smiling eyes and gurgling on his face, she sighed, and then thought of Xu Heng who looked like a mad face with a scar, her eyes fell again.

In a few light jumps, her seemingly thick body was as flexible as a bird, and she didn't know how far she could fly in the blink of an eye.

The Wei Palace has been inherited for hundreds of years, and has accumulated countless wealth since the last few generations, although it has been extravagant by recent emperors, but the renovation and construction of the Wei Palace is still spent in a large proportion of the annual treasury. Although the Wei Palace was large, it was only a few more steps in front of Shi Lan, and before the archers who were concentrating on the towers could wipe their eyes, a black shadow like a bird had disappeared without a trace.

After a while, Shi Lan stood firmly on the gray wall of the Hall of Eternal Life as if a stone had fallen to the ground.

The long wall that stumped Wei Feng was just a higher threshold for her, she stood on top of the gray wall, and glanced at the past, except for the long wall in a circle, there was a vast square in the middle, which stretched out from the line of sight of Shi Lan; the square was unadorned, paved with marble, only in the center stood a wooden tower that was not very high but very broad, and after a hundred steps of the tower, there were several very magnificent and solemn but lifeless palaces.

Hall of Eternal Life.

Shi Mian glanced at the Hall of Eternal Life lightly, suddenly frowned, and looked back at outside the wall, there was a grass under the grass, as if there was some unusual sound.

Knock knock. It sounds like someone is going to get out of the ground.
