Su Zixu's tone was calm, but Concubine Shen was particularly harsh when she listened.

She tore off her veil and completely exposed herself to Su Zixu.

She said, "So you already knew. ”

Su Zixu laughed and said nothing.

After not seeing her for a few days, Concubine Shen's face was a lot haggard. But what she didn't expect was that Concubine Shen really knew martial arts.

"You were the one who sneaked into Yao'er's dormitory in the middle of the night a few days ago, right?" Since Concubine Shen decided to face her calmly with her true face, she didn't want to pretend anymore, so she simply said everything.

"So you know." Concubine Shen's tone was also calm.

Originally, the two of them had some scruples when they deliberately concealed their identities, but now they feel a lot more relaxed when they show their true faces.

"I know, but I'm not sure yet, I heard that Shen Xinran is knowledgeable, gentle and elegant, and when he was fourteen years old, he caused a sensation in the capital with his good piano skills, and those who seek relatives are about to break through the threshold of the Shen family."

After Su Zixu finished speaking, the words changed, and he didn't know whether it was mockery or other meaning, "I didn't expect it, but he was a person who was both civil and military." ”

Shen Xinran is Concubine Shen's name.

Su Zixu still remembered that four years ago, not long after she returned to Beijing with Emperor Yan, she was still Emperor Yan's favorite concubine, but she already had an impression of the name Shen Xinran.

There are only a handful of concubines in the harem of Emperor Yan, and the ministers of the court and the central government have repeatedly played to persuade the emperor to draft girls to enrich the harem.

Emperor Yan asked Furen to give her the portraits and rosters of those official women for her to see.

She saw the name Shen Xinran on the roster, but there was no portrait of her, and she couldn't help but wonder at that time, thinking that the eunuch in charge had omitted it, so she asked the reason.

Unexpectedly, Furen told her that the old man of the Shen family, Shen Xinran's grandfather, had died less than three years ago, and Shen Xinran volunteered to keep filial piety at home, and was unwilling to enter the palace for the draft, so he didn't let people take her portrait into the palace, and her name was just used to fill up the number on the roster.

In fact, Emperor Yan's heart was like a mirror, and he knew that Shen Xinran was unwilling to enter the palace, so he used this reason to prevaricate. However, he was not a lustful person, and he didn't want to choose a concubine to enrich the harem, so he just went through the motions to show the ministers of the DPRK and China, and he didn't pay attention to it.

Su Zixu still remembered what Emperor Yan said at that time, "I heard that Shen Xinran is knowledgeable, looks like a country and a city, and has a good piano skill, and the people who are lined up outside the Shen family to ask for relatives are about to break the threshold of the Shen family." ”

Although it was just an unintentional joke, Su Zixu kept it in her heart, Emperor Yan had never praised others in front of her, and at that time she was still a little curious, who was this Shen Xinran, who could be so appreciated by Emperor Yan.

She also asked with a smile: "If such a wonderful person enters the palace, how will the emperor treat her?" ”

Emperor Yan's words were simple and clear, "Treat each other with courtesy." ”

Thinking of this, Su Zixu couldn't help but be moved.

What used to be a joke has now come true.

She didn't know how Emperor Yan met Concubine Shen and included her in the harem for three years, but he really only treated her politely.

He gave her the best favor and the highest honor that her concubine could get, but he did not have a skin-to-skin relationship with her.

She is more pitiful and deserves more sympathy than her.

Not to be outdone, Concubine Shen fought back, and sneered: "Concubine Su, why aren't you like this?" stealing beams and changing pillars, and playing everyone around, these palaces are beyond their reach. ”

She had already determined that the person in front of her was undoubtedly Concubine Su. Or rather, from the time she knew she was still a virgin, she had already doubted. If it weren't for that person, how could the emperor pamper her.

Later, she inadvertently got the note that Yao Lao had passed to Empress Liu, which made her even more sure that all this was true.

Concubine Su did not die, but lived in another capacity. And what about her, she was used as a substitute for her, and after she appeared, everything was gone, how ridiculous!

"Do you really think that Hongu didn't die three years ago? You are wrong, Hongu is indeed dead, but God has given Hongu a chance to return here to regain everything he has lost. Su Zixu sneered.

Concubine Shen looked at her suspiciously, she could tell from Su Zixu's eyes that she was not lying.

But if she died three years ago, why is she here now?

"Concubine Su, do you know why this palace knows your identity?" Concubine Shen said, "A few days ago, this palace inadvertently caught a carrier pigeon in the palace, which was a letter from Yao Lao to Queen Liu, and the content of the letter was related to your identity. ”

After a pause, she continued: "But what allows me to really confirm your true identity is the game you gave me. You sent a message to the monarch of Mo Yanguo, saying that you were in the palace and wanted him to take you out, right? And the person who looks like you is only me, so I am your replacement again. ”

Her voice was quick and fierce, and her gentle and lovely appearance had long since disappeared without a trace, leaving only a terrible face that was born of love and hatred, and became a demon with jealousy.

She said disdainfully: "Concubine Su, you really have a set, not only do you play the emperor around, but the monarch of Mo Yan has also become your minister." ”

Su Zixu didn't answer, and asked lightly: "Bengong wants to know, how did you get out and come back?" ”

The person who can quietly kidnap Concubine Shen from the palace is by no means ordinary, and the people who escort her to Mo Yan Country will set up layers of defense.

There is only one reason why she can return to the palace alone: her martial arts are very high.

Thinking of this, Su Zixu's eyes that had been silent for a long time couldn't help but move, looking at Concubine Shen.

Concubine Shen's father is a civil official, and her mother is also a woman from a well-known family in the capital, where did she learn those martial arts.

The time she spent with her in the palace was not long, but she couldn't see any clues.

Concubine Shen, it's too deeply hidden.

"Those people can't trap this palace yet." Concubine Shen said proudly.

It was ridiculous that a few assassins wanted to bring her to Mo Yan Kingdom.

"Concubine Su, this palace has never been a substitute for anyone, I hate being designed the most in my life, you and I have a grudge, let's end it tonight." After Concubine Shen finished speaking, she waved her hand and put the sword back into the scabbard. Then she gently turned a button on the hilt of the sword, and with a few clicks, the sword turned like a snake and put it back together.

In half a loud moment, she pulled out her sword, the sword aura overflowed, and a ball of green light broke through the sky, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The sword qi was too strong, and it affected Su Zixu, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand to block the sword qi.

Concubine Shen suddenly clasped her hands together and shouted, "Take out the sword." ”

The sword stabbed straight at Su Zixu, the sword aura was extremely powerful, and a huge and powerful internal force pressed on Su Zixu's body, Su Zixu's face changed, and he dodged the blow sideways.

When Concubine Shen saw this, she immediately withdrew her hand, only to see a vague shadow flash in the room, and Concubine Shen had already grabbed the sword and fought with Su Zixu for more than a dozen rounds.

Su Zixu really understood Concubine Shen's strength at this time, and she couldn't let her think too much, so she hurriedly took action to resist Concubine Shen's attack.

The two unconsciously moved from the house to the backyard to fight, and everything around them seemed to be still, leaving only the two of them fighting.

After dozens of rounds or so, Su Zixu hooked his lips and smiled slightly.

Concubine Shen's martial arts are powerful, but it's a pity that it's not hot enough. As she was thinking, Concubine Shen tried her best to stab her with the most powerful sword, Su Zixu's eyes flashed, and she also stretched out her hands to strike a fatal blow at Concubine Shen.
