Life and death threaten, gambling is just two words.

"So you're really an assassin." , Zhang Xixi turned around, her eyes stared directly at Zhou Manyun's calm face, trying to find the slightest flaw.

She was sent to Tianxiangyuan by her grandfather for training since she was a child, although she was deliberately raised to her current temperament, but she was not a real stupid person, not to mention that she stayed in the harem of two emperors for more than ten years.

Since childhood, the fear of Jiang's mother and the people behind her still has residual prestige, but with the death of his brother Zhang Shaoxiong, who was still cared for in the past, Zhang regrets that there is only one person left in this world.

He's her life! can live freely in the harem, and it must come from the favor of the Son of Heaven. If you really believe that you will live better as a five-year-old child, the imperial grandmother with an unrighteous name will be better, and she will seriously send herself to death.

Zhou Manyun stood motionless and quietly, with an indifferent expression, as if he had put life and death out of the way.

It is rare for a woman like a poisonous snake in front of her to take the initiative to send seven inches, and she must always catch it. Zhang Xixi thought about it and understood, and her innocent and delicate smile immediately revealed her color and said: "As long as you save a cheap life, it will be easy for this palace." ”

Man Yun bowed, bowed, and quietly and meekly retreated to the side, completely losing the ruthlessness that threatened one life for another just now.

Empress Liu was waiting in the main hall of Yuzao Palace, and Concubine Zhang's makeup naturally couldn't be as she pleased. As soon as Man Yun retreated, a team of palace maids who were already holding ceremonial clothes and hairpins poured into the Stacked Fragrance Building and surrounded Zhang Xixi.

The morning darkness grew darker and darker as the days passed, and the dense autumn clouds rained down on the ground, making the unwashed blood stain even more filthy and dirty.

The Stacking Building was full of the sounds of Zhang Xixi, as in the past, who was unrestrained and wantonly scolding the palace maids, and Zhou Manyun, who was solemnly independent of the bustle, put a bare hand on the half-open window lattice, and his eyes went straight through the endless red mist.

In the deep palace, human life is not as good as a dog. No matter how much it is cherished by the family. As long as you are tied here, you will lose the slightest bit of dignity.

The five black-clothed assassins on the side of the water law had not received any treatment for their external injuries, and there were also pools of blood under them, attracting flies and insects that were still gasping in the autumn.

Just now, a badly wounded Assassin was dragged to the side of the trap pool. Even though he shouted in his mouth that he was willing to surrender, and even frantically pointed out his more important companions, he was still beheaded and died without looking at him.

Emperor Taiye, who was accustomed to assassination, didn't bother to care about where the enemy came from.

"The identity of the person you want to save is not low!" , Concubine Zhang, dressed in full costume, stood beside Zhou Manyun at some point, like a whisper between sisters, with some urgency.

Zhou Manyun lowered his eyes lightly, and said softly: "Please also ask the concubine to ask for the holy order, and fulfill the wish of the little girl." ”

Zhang Xixi turned around and smiled weirdly. Like a butterfly flying away, it floated in the direction of the dormitory.

After waiting for nearly half an hour, Zhou Manyun, who had been staying in front of the building in suspense, got the news that Emperor Taiye was going to drive the Stacked Stacking Building to interrogate the assassins here.

The emperor's shoulders like a hut in the face of everyone knelt and stopped in the open ground floor hall of the Stacked Mansion. The palace maid lifted the curtain and pulled the veil, but there was more than one person on the wide throne, and the charming Concubine Zhang was lying in the arms of the emperor Bixia who was reclining on the dragon, eating and smiling, as if she was a child who had just won the game.

The dignified and virtuous Empress Liu bowed to the Son of Heaven and the concubine in a proper manner, and then sat down on the chair below. Like a clay sculpture.

The story of the emperor and queen of the Chen Dynasty, which had only been heard in rumors before, appeared in front of him, like a group of puppets performing an absurd drama. Quirky very.

weishenme I'll come here? After saluting with the people of Yuzao Palace, Zhou Manyun, who wanted to make himself more insignificant, smiled wryly and asked himself.

With just a hurried glance, she could already conclude that Emperor Taiye was a long-term drug addict, and the faint stench of the virus was hidden under the yellow dragon robe. If you throw away the majesty of the Son of Heaven who is attached to him, he is only in his early thirties. He was a seriously ill patient with a pale complexion, drooping eyes, and a swollen abdomen.

The father's hatred is not the same, and he always thinks that if he can report it to the world with his own hands, it is more meaningful than letting this son of heaven who actually killed people with his own hands die of illness in Jianyang Palace as he did back then. But such revenge. But he rolled his fate into a bottomless whirlpool.

"The old slave searched for the assassin Yu Xian to the Yurun Palace, and ran into Gonggong Lu. And Yurun Palace has always been inhabited by this woman named Xia Yunji......"

Zhou Manyun, who was full of thoughts, knelt in front of the Stacking Building, quietly staring at the glass tiles carefully picked by his fingertips, and the accusations of Hu Jin beside him suddenly seemed like a dream.

She didn't dare to look up.

As soon as she looked up, she would see Gonggong Lu, who was given a seat by the emperor on the left, and Xiao Hong, who was standing behind the old eunuch. Even though his face was still wrapped in a thick black cloth as it was when he parted last night, she recognized him the moment Eunuch Lu was summoned in just now.

Although he only showed a pair of eyes, there were too many emotions written in those eyes, like a deep pool of psychedelic hearts to lure her, hook her, and drown her.

"Xia Yunji should be a beauty received by Xiakou Palace. But it seems that she has been serving the concubine Niangniang recently? Liu Hou smiled gracefully, asked each other slowly, and stared at Hu Jin with burning eyes.

"Back to Bixia, Xia Yunji has indeed been in the Yuzao Palace of the Concubine Niangniang recently." , Hu Jin immediately replied, and his voice was clear.

Empress Liu still had the smiling expression on her face, and the corners of her eyes narrowed slightly showed satisfaction.

"Who doesn't know that Manager Hu and your uncle Liu Ren and the two people in charge of palace guards, one inside and one outside, have long been hooked up. I don't do things well all day long, so that the assassins break into the palace one by one, and then I think of ways to find the poor son of the palace! Zhang Xixi, who was still in the arms of Emperor Taiye, stretched out his right hand, showing the bright Kodan on his fingertips, without the slightest fear.

Hu Jin choked and flushed his face.

Although the news that a certain "assassin" would go to Yurun Palace was indeed notified to him by Liu Renhe, and in private he did have a close relationship with the Liu family, but it was still a little embarrassing to be said directly by Concubine Zhang.

Zhang Xixi's unreasonable offensive caused Emperor Taiye to let out a string of hearty laughter, and the hand on her hair was even more gentle and affectionate. The woman in his arms made him feel comfortable, and not only because of her extremely attractive body. It's even more of this unobstructed temperament.

"Am I going to hurt you? San Lang is the only support for slaves to live in this world, and I can't bear to let you get hurt in the slightest! Zhang Xixi walked up more delicately, showing charm in front of the Son of Heaven, like a big cat with a happy child.

Emperor Taiye's laughter became louder, and his gaze slowly moved to the top of Zhou Manyun's hair. He stopped laughing. He is confident that Zhang Xixi, who still only has the title of concubine, has no family to rely on now, and he does not have a son who can replace him like Empress Liu, and he is indeed the only person in the world who will not murder him, but if someone wants to deliberately approach Zhang Xixi, who has no house, it will be a different matter.

"Xia-Yun-Ji!" , Emperor Taiye hooked his finger at Zhou Manyun, who was kneeling on the ground.

Zhou Manyun's body shook, and before she could think about how to deal with it, two chamberlains rushed over and drove her to the front of the emperor. Straightened her shoulders. In addition to being gentle with Concubine Zhang, Emperor Taiye has no patience with other women, and sometimes angers everyone for the dodge of palace maids, so the palace maids and officials who serve close have developed a set of habitual patterns.

"It's a beauty, too! The skin is very good! Emperor Taiye stared at the woman in front of him, smiled and hooked the corners of his mouth, and gently pushed Zhang Xixi in his arms to the side. Leaned forward, as if to see clearly.

"Humph!". Zhang Xixi hummed angrily without hiding his jealousy, turned his head sideways and twisted to the side.

A light with angry eyes just crashed into her eyes, and Zhang Xixi's eyes quickly moved, and she saw a fist that was clenched tightly.

Looking? Zhang Xixi followed Xiao Hong's line of sight, and then fixed her beautiful eyes on Zhou Manyun's pale face. Then he grinned, and one of them threw himself into his arms and hugged Emperor Taiye, who was about to touch Man Yun's cheek.

"Bixia, this is in my palace!" , Zhang Xixi pursed her pink lips and looked coquettish.

Emperor Taiye Daxiao. waved his hand.

The attendant who was holding Manyun let go of his hand, Zhou Manyun sat on the ground dejectedly, breathed a long sigh of relief, and couldn't help but glance to the left, and then quickly lowered his head, not daring to look again.

Sure enough, there was a problem! Zhang Xixi, who was tired of returning to the arms of the Son of Heaven, smiled secretly in his heart, for the fact that what he saw was believing just now and Zhou Manyun's "pleading" before.

"Bixia, this woman named Xia Yunji should be related to assassins!" , Hu Jin looked at Xiao Hong, who was standing behind Lu Zheng and was also bowing his head, his heart was horizontal, and his finger pointed at Xiao Hong and directly controlled: "According to the letter received by the old slave, someone will go to Yurun Palace to connect with him, and last night, there was an extra person in Yurun Palace." Bixia makes people test their bodies, and they are by no means eunuchs in the palace. ”

"Our family said that he was the Blue Dragon Secret Guard! I have always been outside the palace, but I just happened to enter the palace to report to our family, and when I saw the movement of searching for assassins, I went to the Yurun Palace with our family. Qinglongwei's internal affairs are not necessary to communicate with outsiders according to the rules of Gaozu. Lu Zheng replied slowly, the whites of his eyes turned up, disdainful.

It was no longer a beauty to talk about, and Emperor Taiye on the throne yawned with interest, as if he wanted to make a decision early and return to the palace. In his opinion, this is just another attempt by Hu Jin, who has been seizing power in recent years, to provoke Lu Zheng, although it is absurd in recent years, but he still understands that Lu Zheng, who has the first emperor in his heart, is more reliable for saving his life than Hu Jin, who was pulled away by the Liu family.

Obviously, Hu Jin also understood that the scales in the heart of the Son of Heaven were biased. The round white face turned dark red under the fierce staring of Gonggong Lu, and he closed his mouth and glanced at Liu Hou helplessly.

Empress Liu picked the corner of her eyes with a little surprise, the current glued situation was far from yesterday's secret report that after arresting the assassin of Yurun Palace, she would continue to bite Concubine Zhang to death with a woman surnamed Xia.

No witnesses, evidence! The old and refined Lu Zheng looked at the queen and the current head of the internal supervision who were playing tricks under his nose, and sneered in his heart.

Lu was waiting for His Majesty to see him when he also received news from outside the palace.

Just when the assassin was ugly in the palace, the Gao family in Xiakou City had just been cared for by Zhu Rong and had a fire, and now it was a scorched land. The Gao family, who dared to do something to harm people, couldn't bring his wife, who was also from the Huocheng Zhou family, into the palace to testify. When the city gate was opened, Xiao Ze, the prince of Jingguo, took his "two" younger brothers to brazenly cross the street and go straight to Puzhen, saying that Xiao Yuan, the third son of the Xiao family, was accidentally injured in Puzhen and was awaiting treatment.

Xiao Hong, who has a handsome face beyond recognition, what if he is now sure that he is a secret guard? Although he was extremely dissatisfied with Xiao Ze, who let Xiao Hong put himself in danger, Lu Zheng still made a good comment on Xiao Shizi, who quickly reacted outside without knowing the situation.

“bixia！ How boring it is! Why don't we do what we just said and play with those people? Zhang Xixi dragged the hand of Emperor Taiye and called out to each other.

When the listless Emperor Taiye nodded dotingly, Concubine Zhang's slender jade fingers pointed at Zhou Manyun who was kneeling on the side, and said with a smile: "Those assassins are all men, and it's not interesting to play, so it's better to let her participate in the corner."
