"Brother!" Xibao held Zhao Yunfan's hand and said: "Big brother, Qi You has treated me all these years, and you have nothing to say to our Zhao family, especially my sister and me, I have been living in Qi You's care, I have never suffered any grievances, I have not suffered any hardships, he is so attentive, my sister and I can't pay it off in this life, and now he is in trouble, sister, I just give up this life to protect him, protect the country he has worked so hard to guard, brother, please!" ”

Zhao Yunfan looked at his sister's resolute look, thought for a long time and sighed like a compromise, then shook Xibao's hand tightly and said: "Okay, good, as long as you want, I will give it to my eldest brother!" Okay, don't worry, I'll go out of the palace to make arrangements, you have to be more careful in the palace, you don't have to worry outside the palace, the eldest brother will definitely press the news and wait for the emperor to return to Beijing safely! ”

"Big brother!" Xibao knew that this matter was indeed a little difficult, but her eldest brother was still the same, as long as she wanted to do it, he would do his best to help her do it whether it was right or wrong, and now in this situation, she could only arrange it like this first.

Zhao Yunfan knew that Xibao had a lot of apologies to him in his heart, but he also understood that if he didn't go to such a situation now, there would be no one to help her, although he didn't want anything to happen in his heart, but he still knew that it was indeed a little dangerous tonight.

Without waiting for Xibao to say anything, Zhao Yunfan patted Xibao's hand and said: "Little sister, you don't have to worry, I can still handle these things, but you have to be careful no matter what, you can't delay any longer, I'll go out of the palace to arrange it first." ”

After that, Zhao Yunfan also left in a hurry......

Hey, it was already dark as he spoke, and as night fell, Xibao's heart became extremely dull, and Huan Yue was also anxiously standing near the entrance of the hall and waiting.

Xibao sat in his seat and sighed and said, "Yue'er, come and sit down, what the white ape promised me will definitely be done, don't worry, just wait." ”

Huan Yue walked towards the meeting. While looking back at the door of the temple that was not moving, the worry in his heart became heavier and heavier, it was all night, and the white ape had not come back yet. Is it that things outside are not arranged smoothly? Huan Yue had to guess in her heart.

Xibao is also worried in her heart, but now she has to stabilize it first, even if she is worried, she has to stabilize herself first, otherwise Huanyue will not be even more aware.

The two people in the hall were anxiously waiting for the white ape, and Gonggong Xue outside the hall also came back and guarded the door again. This night that is about to enter summer is so stuffy that there is not a trace of breeze, and for some reason Grandpa Xue, who was guarding the door, also became a little anxious.

Xue Gongcheng was a little restless, and suddenly saw a white shadow flash in front of him, so frightened that he took a few steps back before exhaling in a low voice: "Commander Bai!" ”

It turned out that the person who came was the white ape, and the white ape was a little embarrassed when he saw that Xue Gonggong's face was full of fright: "I came and went in a hurry, I scared Xue Gonggong, I'm really sorry!" ”

Father-in-law Xue also replied: "It's okay, it's okay, it's because I'm defenseless." By the way, both masters are waiting for you. ”

The white ape nodded and said, "I know, I still have to bother Grandpa Xue to help me get through." ”

Xue Gonggong said: "There is no need to be polite, the concubine and the fourth prince said, you can invite in directly when you arrive, you can invite it quickly." ”

After that, Gonggong Xue pushed open the door of the palace and invited the white ape in.

As soon as the white ape entered the hall, he saw Xibao and Huanyue looking at him with a surprised face, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Greetings to the concubine and the fourth prince!" ”

Xibao took a step forward and said, "White Ape." Hurry up, what's going on? ”

The white ape was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to speak, he paused before saying: "I haven't heard that the emperor has been injured outside, and the Imperial Forest Army and the Jingji Battalion are all as usual." The lowly post has already arranged everything according to the mother's wishes, but it's just ......"

"Just what?" Xibao is most afraid that this is just a later word.

"It's just that half of the Imperial Forest Army was also taken out of the city by the five princes to join the emperor, and there are not many Imperial Forest Army left in the capital, and some of them have been arranged on duty, and there are really not many left to standby." The white ape also found out about this situation after he went.

"Fifth Master, what are you going to do?" Xibao is getting more and more incomprehensible, aren't the guards of the capital afraid of someone taking advantage of the situation like this?

"I don't have time to figure out why. However, all the royal forest army on standby has been arranged, and there is no big problem in guarding the entire harem, when the humble post just came over, the palace was already full of guards, the emperor's inner guards, the palace guards, and the royal forest army, it should be relatively tight. The white ape replied.

"Uncle White Ape, where is the Jingji Camp?" Huan Yue is also more concerned about the actions in the army.

"There are no abnormal changes, but the Jingji Battalion directly obeys the emperor's orders, and now that the emperor is injured, this news cannot be disclosed at will, so we are really not easy to transfer in the Jingji Battalion, and now as long as they are stable, this should not be too big." The white ape dissected the current situation very clearly.

"Mother, this ......" Huan Yue had a headache when she heard the white ape's words.

Xibao said: "What the white ape said is right, since the Jingji Battalion is directly under the orders of your father, then no one should be able to send and transfer except your father, which is not a bad thing for us." ”

"But the concubine, now ......" Huan Yue didn't know how to continue, although now he and his mother concubine were worried about the imaginary situation, but the oppression of this imaginary seemed to be more and more realistic, more and more obvious, and he was really afraid that something would happen that would be difficult to end.

Xibao said: "It's okay, now that we can make all the preparations we can do, it's naturally best to have nothing to do, if something really happens, we can only come to cover the water and earth, white ape, you can accompany us." ”

The white ape nodded and said, "Yes, Guifei Niangniang." ”

The night is getting darker, the entire harem is quietly on alert, there is no wind tonight, even the sound of insects chirping has disappeared without a trace, the harem is a little quiet, the guards and the royal guards are all on guard, although everyone doesn't know what happened, but the arrangement of such a quiet but big battle still makes them all vigilant in their hearts.

Tonight is destined to be a long night, Xi Bao and Huan Yue sat in the Heart Nourishing Hall under the escort of the white ape, looking forward to the light of dawn, in addition to the sound of the hourglass in this huge hall, only the sound of Xi Bao and the three of them breathing slightly rapidly.

With a "click", the hourglass stopped, Xibao looked back and looked over, then frowned slightly and said, "It's midnight." ”

Huan Yue and the white ape also looked at the hourglass that had stopped. The white ape was about to get up and change the hourglass, when suddenly there was an extremely flustered and noisy sound outside, as if the footsteps were more than the human voice, and the white ape immediately became vigilant. Directly protected in front of Xibao and Huanyue.

Huan Yue and Xi Bao were nervous, and Huan Yue grabbed Xi Bao's sleeve and said, "Mother! ”

Xibao also sat up and glanced at the white ape and asked, "But someone is coming?" Do you hear clearly? ”

The white ape nodded vigilantly and said, "Well, there are quite a few people. ”

"Is it the emperor?" Xibao confirmed.

"No, the sound of their footsteps can be distinguished, and the voices outside are afraid that the people who come are not good!" The white ape had already faintly pulled the sword out of its scabbard slightly. Ready for battle.

The person who came was not good, and Xibao's heart was faintly uneasy.

Suddenly, the door of the palace was pushed open, and the three of Xibao gathered their eyes at the door of the hall, only to see Gonggong Xue struggling to block a group of people outside, and the whole person was blocking the door of the palace, and shouted righteously: "Second prince, this is the place where the emperor discusses politics, you have neither a call nor a request, so it is really inappropriate to break through so hard!" ”

As soon as Gonggong Xue said this, Xibao was shocked, "Second prince!" "The person who came is the second prince Qi Huanwei? Coming late at night is so arrogant. I'm afraid it's not a good thing, Xibao sneered in his heart, I'm really afraid of something.

Although he couldn't see the appearance of the second prince, but the words of the second prince could be heard clearly in the hall, and after Xue Gonggong's words, the second prince sneered and said: "My father is not in the palace, who does this prince want to ask for?" ”

Gonggong Xue was not afraid of him and said: "The emperor is not in the palace, but before he left, he had appointed the fourth prince to temporarily replace the court affairs as the prince, assisted by the fifth prince, since the second prince wants to enter the palace and enter the palace, he should first get the consent of the fourth prince or the fifth prince!" ”

"Humph! This prince was summoned to the palace by his mother, can he still report to you, a minion? The second prince looked disdainful.

Xibao was a little surprised. Summoned by the Queen? How can it be?

But Xue Gonggong said righteously and without losing his integrity: "If the queen mother summons you, the second prince should go to the queen mother, why does it appear in the Heart Cultivation Palace?" ”

"Father-in-law Xue, it's not your turn to tell you how to do things for this prince, right?" The second prince was obviously a little impatient.

"The old slave didn't dare. But this palace of nourishing hearts is not something that your second prince can enter casually if he wants to, you also know that this place is the highest point of imperial power, and only the emperor and those who approve of the emperor can enter and exit, since the second prince has no authority, please don't embarrass the old slave! "Xue Gonggong is reasonable.

"Humph! Bewilderment? Xue Gonggong. Don't you know what's going on? The second prince sneered.

Gonggong Xue went to continue to block the door and said, "What does the second prince mean?" ”

The second prince, Qi Huanwei, said: "What does Gonggong Xue think? ”

"How can the old slave know what the second prince thinks?" Xue Gonggong also played Tai Chi.

"Yes, since Gonggong Xue doesn't understand, then why do you want to stop this prince?" The second prince asked.

"Second prince, the old slave made it very clear, it is not appropriate for you to come late at night without a summons, and you still broke into the forbidden place of the Imperial Palace with so many people, your intentions are really unpredictable, how can the old slave let you go in and out at will!" Father-in-law Xue also had a little temper.

"Humph! Father-in-law Xue, you are really a good slave of your father, this door is so good! The second prince sneered sarcastically.

Xibao and Huan Yue in the palace were a little angry, and Huan Yue immediately wanted to go out to reason with the second prince, but was pulled by Xibao and whispered: "Let's listen to what else he has to say." ”

"Mother, the second prince is too ...... It's so arrogant! Huan Yue gritted her teeth and whispered.

"He is arrogant, he naturally has arrogant capital, I want to see what kind of arrogance he can become, don't be impatient." Xibao just patted Huanyue's hand lightly and motioned for him to continue listening.

Xue Gonggong smiled slightly: "The old slave is the emperor's slave, naturally he has to be worthy of the emperor's instructions, the old slave has no great ability, but the emperor said that this door is the life of the old slave, if the second prince has to break in, the old slave can only get out!" ”

"Grandpa Xue, what do you mean? Why do you think this prince has bad intentions? "The second prince was provoked by Gonggong Xue.

"The old slave doesn't dare!" Xue Gonggong said coldly. (To be continued.) )
