As soon as the carriage stopped, a guard stepped forward to inquire, and after seeing that it was Concubine Wan, he didn't even report it, so he directly invited Concubine Wan, Izumo and Shen Yan'er in - probably because he had known that Concubine Wan was visiting today, and he was ready.

Concubine Wan was as familiar with King Ning's Mansion as her own backyard, and she didn't need the maid of the palace to lead the way, so she took Shen Yan'er all the way along the corridor through several courtyards, and then came to a quiet courtyard with the words "Lanyue Ju" written on it.

As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I saw a tall and handsome man standing by the door. It seems that he calculated the time and waited outside to meet them. This person is Phoenix Nanhua, and Shen Yan'er has met him outside the mass grave.

Phoenix Anwar immediately greeted Wan Guifei when he saw the figure, and glanced at Shen Yan'er very casually, without too much surprise, as if he had long known that Shen Yan'er would come.

Phoenix Nanhua introduced Concubine Wan and Shen Yan'er into the room. Thinking that she was about to see Xiao Hei, Shen Yan'er suddenly became nervous, and her heart was pounding. As a result, when she walked into the room quickly behind Concubine Wan, it was another person who appeared in front of her.

"Madame, have you been sleeping lately? Do you still feel suffocated in your chest? The person who spoke was the imperial doctor who announced in the mass grave that Wei Shixuan was hopeless. Shen Yan'er knew that his name was Sima Guo, and he was the son of Sima Yuanqing, the envoy of the Tai Hospital.

At this moment, he had just finished cutting the pulse of a middle-aged woman with a graceful and luxurious temperament, and was inquiring about the woman's physical condition. The woman looks very similar to Concubine Wan, her facial features are delicate in the atmosphere, her skin is white and snowy, smooth and delicate, so Shen Yan'er guessed at once that she should be Concubine Wan's mother Du Xin, and she is also the queen mother's sister and Phoenix Nanhua's aunt.

When Sima Guo saw Concubine Wan coming, he immediately got up and saluted slightly. His etiquette is very casual, and he doesn't feel too deep about the hierarchy, so he should also be very familiar with Concubine Wan. He was relatively close to Phoenix Anwar and Wan Guifei in age, and Shen Yan'er vaguely guessed from the atmosphere between the three of them that they should have known each other since childhood.

Sima Guo didn't show a trace of surprise when he saw Shen Yan'er, the only one who had doubts about Shen Yan'er's arrival was Wan Guifei's mother, Du Xin. She looked at the strange Shen Yan'er in surprise, looking for an opportunity to ask, but before she could say anything, Phoenix Nanhua said to Shen Yan'er: "You come with me." ”

After speaking, he led Shen Yan'er outside, leaving Twilight Xin, who had just wanted to open her mouth, staring at the back of the two of them leaving in a daze.

As Shen Yan'er walked, she vaguely heard Twilight Xin asking Wan Guifei about her identity behind her, but as for how Wan Guifei answered, she couldn't hear clearly.

After leaving Lanyue Residence, Phoenix Nanhua took Shen Yan'er to a quieter place. Although it was quiet, it was a palace after all, and there were still many servants passing by them along the way, which made Shen Yan'er dare not relax at all.

It is precisely because of the occasional encounter that someone walks by, so neither of them spoke along the way. Shen Yan'er kept looking at the tall back of Phoenix Nanhua, following him closely, and the more she walked, the more she felt inexplicably nervous.

Although she was disappointed just now, she was almost certain that Phoenix Nanhua would definitely take her to see Xiao Hei now. The mass grave is full of dangers, and I don't know if Xiao Hei is injured. Shen Yan'er was full of questions, and she wanted to pull Phoenix Nanhua to ask what was going on, but she endured it after all. Anyway, as long as you wait to see Xiao Hei, you'll know.

In the end, Phoenix Nanhua took Shen Yan'er to a place similar to a study.

The reason why it is said to be "similar" is because there are four treasures of the study room on the table in the room, and there is a subset of scriptures and history on the bookshelf, which does look like a study, but with a faint smell of dust and a sense of obsolescence, it seems that no one has been here for a long time. It's not so much a study as it feels like a "library".

The squeak of the door was followed by silence, dust fluttering in the light pouring in from the doorway. After feeling the strangeness of the atmosphere, Shen Yan'er subconsciously stopped by the door and didn't dare to go inside. There is no screen in the room, so you can see the bottom at a glance. Not to mention a human figure, there is not even a ghost.

"Where's Blackie?" Shen Yan'er finally couldn't help but ask.

"Of course it's hidden." Phoenix Nanhua turned around and smiled slyly at Shen Yan'er, closing the door and window very vigilantly. Then he walked briskly over to the bookshelf, put his hand through the gap in the book, and pressed the mechanism somewhere on the wall.

Then there was a slight sound, and the two bookshelves, which had been next to each other, slowly moved away, revealing a blank wall. Phoenix Nanhua pushed lightly, and the wall silently cracked through the middle - it was actually a secret door.

The secret door is designed to be extremely discreet, as if it has become one with the wall. If Phoenix Nanhua didn't push it, Shen Yan'er wouldn't see it at all.

"Blackie!" Shen Yan'er, who followed Phoenix Nanhua into the secret room, saw Xiao Hei lying on a simple bed in the corner of the wall at a glance.

The bed was improvised from four stools, with only a thin blanket on top. And there wasn't even a pillow, and under the little black head was a stack of old books.

Originally, there was no such "bed" in the secret room, but it was temporarily built by Phoenix Nanhua to hide Xiao Hei.

Shen Yan'er saw Xiao Hei lying motionless on the bed, and the joy of the previous moment turned into worry in a blink of an eye, and she nervously asked Phoenix Nanhua, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"Don't worry, he's just too tired." Phoenix Nanhua said as he walked towards Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei, who was sleeping, was still highly alert, and immediately opened his eyes when he heard the footsteps of Phoenix Nanhua approaching, and lay on the bed with his right hand to prop up his upper body and lie on his side. If he hadn't found out that the person who came was Phoenix Nanhua, it is estimated that he would have jumped up a long time ago.

"Blackie." Shen Yan'er shouted.

Only then did Xiao Hei look away. The moment he saw Shen Yan'er, his eyes suddenly widened, and he was stunned. "Yan'er......" It took a long time to whisper Shen Yan'er's name.

"I heard that you found King Ning's Mansion, and it was Concubine Wan who brought me to see you." Shen Yan'er walked to Xiao Hei's side, afraid that Xiao Hei wouldn't know who Wan Guifei was, so she hurriedly added, "Wan Guifei is Izumo's master." You came to King Ning for help, and she was also in the know. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Hei nodded, turned over and sat on the edge of the bed. There were no tables, chairs and benches in the secret room, so Shen Yan'er and Phoenix Nanhua could only stand and talk to him. 、

As soon as Phoenix Nanhua opened his mouth, he complained: "He suddenly appeared next to my bedside before dawn yesterday morning, and I was so scared that I almost went out of my body. There are so many patrolling guards in the palace, and I don't know how he managed to sneak in......"
