Hold on foot in the hook, stand on the left and right, there are jade dragons and golden phoenixes. The capital is full of flowers, and it is full of lead. The people in the palace yearn for the scenery outside the building, the so-called palace gate is as deep as the sea, from then on Xiao Lang strangers, this king can not wander around this harem five times, and it is normal to be snubbed and oppressed.

"Is that true?" In the dimly lit room, there was only one oil lamp, and the faint scent of sandalwood filled her side, and the hollow carved windows blew in a little cool breeze, and the candle flame flickered with it, illuminating her face.

The person kneeling on the ground was facing the ground, his voice was like a mosquito fly, and his body trembled slightly, "Concubine Niangniang, what the slave said is true. ”

Concubine Shu's gentle and accustomed face gradually distorted, and she pinched the glass cup of fine white jade hard, and the green tendons on her hands burst out, and she heard the clattering sound of the things in her hands, which made the kneeling people tremble.

The jade cup slammed on the table with a loud noise, and his resentful gaze did not have the slightest light: "Your Majesty, how dare he be like this...!" The cat, resting at her feet, was frightened, and its hind feet arched like springs, shrinking and fleeing to the side. Concubine Shu lowered her eyelashes, and there was a cold light in the corners of her eyes, "In that case, I will go to meet the good sister of the palace tomorrow." ”

This morning, the king did not go to court, but went out for a private visit to check the people's feelings, accompanied by several concubines and guards. Concubine Shu couldn't understand that Qian Yuchen could bring in a woman when she went out of the palace, and she was named Zhaoyi, this status was not low, and it suddenly made Concubine Shu panic inexplicably.

Thinking that he climbed to the position of Concubine Shu was the result of hard work day and night, starting from an unknown palace maid, he has been trying to attract the emperor's attention.

According to what she had just heard from the maid, this person's face was ninety percent similar to that of Princess Xuanyuan, who was married, and it was just fake. And Chen Wensheng is a minister who has made great contributions, if Qianyuchen loves the house and Wu is very likely to make her the master of the harem, then her status will not be guaranteed.

The maid cautiously moved three steps away, raised her delicate face, and asked in a low whisper, "Ruined her face?" ”

"You dare to destroy? Aren't you afraid that the emperor will blame you? Taking a sip of herbal tea, the rich aroma hit the tip of the nose, took a deep breath and suppressed many dissatisfaction in the bottom of his heart, no longer asked, and curled the corners of his mouth to still be the gentlemanly and smiling concubine.

She lifted her jade foot, there were three red marks on the instep of her foot, and gently turned the ankle ring, and some blood beads leached out of the wound, "This cat is really disobedient, Xiao Yang, do you understand the meaning of this palace?" Raising his eyes to look at the white cat who was grooming his hair, his expression crossed strangely, which made the maid puzzled.

Concubine Shu is very happy with small animals, especially the cute state can make her smile with her eyebrows and eyes, dogs and cats can often be seen in the Qing Palace, most of them are free-range, but the thrush that loves to sing music is tied to the golden wire cage.

And her favorite is this little white cat, its feet are soft, the soles of the feet are a few round pads, and it doesn't prick its hands at all when she touches it. Moreover, it is also a birthday gift given to her by the emperor, how can she not make the beauty happy, and she should be happy. She showed off in front of the concubine before she gave up, but the cat had just scratched her owner again.

Xiao Yang bit his lip and hesitated, "This is a reward from the emperor, please think twice." "How can this cat be killed? After all, it's an innocent life. She herself is a cat lover, and the fluffy little guy is the meat of her heart, and it is too late to cherish it.

The death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, this cat scratched her more than once, what if the next time it scratched her face? It's really bigger and more naughty, "But the disobedient cat has to make it suffer a little, right?" ”

Cats are most afraid of eating sweets, if the sweet things are eaten by mistake, they will die, and the concubine's favorite cake is fragrant, sweet, spicy and crispy as the main characteristics, it is fragrant, sweet with cotton, spicy but not dry, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, which can be described as the best taste in the world.

"Tomorrow she's going to bring some sweets to the girls." Xiao Yang raised his voice, and saw that Niangniang's face had improved slightly, and finally spit it out with a sigh of relief, "All of them were made by her, and the emperor was also on the side, and the slave maid saw it with her own eyes." ”

The green jade finger pressed the temporal chin tightly, and looked a little tired, "Okay, step down, this palace knows." ”

"Yes, the slave and maid are gone."

The maid closed the door lightly, and the concubine held the black lacquer nine-section flute and placed it lightly on Zhu's lips, and the bleak sound of the flute crossed the silent night sky, crisp and short.

On one side, Que Lou sang and danced. On the other side, it is as quiet as a pool of water, and no one cares. Where are thousands of thoughts drifting to, Xiao Xiao is boundless, drunk and.

There are graceful women's brocade clothes and embroidered jackets, three thousand green silk dreams, drunken kisses and love in the red dust, a song and a dance, holding a colorful fan in her hand, raising her wrist and lowering her eyebrows. Qian Yuchen applauded repeatedly, the woman chuckled, her expression was still shy, the delicate peach petals smiled lightly, and her demeanor was graceful

At the end of the song, Qian Yuchen seemed to have drunk some mellow wine, and his affection flashed with some surprise, and he laughed loudly: "Concubine Ai's dancing skills are really good."

Ying Xin Ying Ying knelt on the top of the main hall, and the golden silk of Juan yarn poured on the ground like a blooming flower bone: "Little girl Ying Xin, thank the emperor for his false praise." ”

"Love concubine, no courtesy. Sit beside me. Hearing this, the person slowly stood up, smiled implicitly at Qian Yuchen, and rubbed it in melancholy like a light cloud. One look at the beauty smiles, and then look at the lovesickness.

Seeing Ying Xin, who was walking slowly towards her, she subconsciously mistook Chen Wensheng for coming back, forced a smile, and the corners of her lips kept rising: "Tomorrow Xin'er is going to my concubine?" ”

Ying Xin raised her head innocently and smiled like a child: "Yes, after the emperor left, the concubine made some sweets for other maidens, and the concubine must be happy." Of course, the concubine also prepared some jade bracelets to give to the concubine, but I was worried that the concubine would not like what I gifted, the concubine... Don’t know whether to wind a watch or bark at the moon. ”

Seeing that the person beside him was drooping his head, hanging his head and feeling a little depressed, Qian Yuchen subconsciously said directly: "No, the concubine likes these jades very much, she will definitely accept them." ”

As soon as the words fell, Qian Yuchen was surprised by his reaction, and the comforting words were so handy, as if he felt from the bottom of his heart that this face should be full of happiness every day, even if he suffered a little grievance, he needed to coax her to be happy immediately.

"Really? That's great! ”

"Really." Qian Yuchen stood up from the dragon chair, the surrounding candlelight shone on his angular face, a pair of eyes could not be seen, he leaned forward slightly, took a deep breath and hugged Ying Xin, who was still immersed in joy, and felt that the body in his arms was slightly stiff, and he wanted to struggle out of this embrace, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his voice was cold and ordered without half emotion: "Don't move." ”

As soon as these words came out, Ying Xin really didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, and shrank and stiffened her neck to let Jun hug her, "Let me hug you, just for a while... Wen Sheng..."The voice next to his ears was slightly trembling, with a hint of pleading.

Wen Sheng? Who is she? The unfamiliar name shouted out from Qian Yuchen's mouth, which made Yingxin puzzled but didn't dare to ask him who Wen Sheng was, for fear of angering the king. There were also a lot of situations here, until the other party slowly let go of his hand, and it wasn't until there was a minister below that Ying Xin hurriedly retreated, and her blush on her face did not disappear, "The concubine still has some retreats in advance." ”

Waiting for Ying Xin to disappear into the main hall with green steps, the smile on Qian Yuchen's face disappeared in an instant, her sword eyebrows raised slightly, and she raised her hand to order all people except Xiao Qi to retreat, "Aiqing also thinks there is something wrong with this person?" He turned his head slightly, a pensive expression.

Xiao Qi, who was originally bent over to keep moving, saw that there were only two people left around, straightened up and took a step forward, gently shaking the ink-colored folding fan, and the breeze swept through the ends of his hair: "Doesn't the emperor think her every move is suspicious?" ”

As soon as Chen Wensheng walked on the front foot, a Ying Xin appeared immediately after, and the two looked like strange, which had to make people suspect that she was a leather painter or a puppet doll, but after contact, I still felt that this person was more like the latter, and her mind was a little naïve and simple.

"Let's see."

After all, there is no evidence to confirm that this person is suspicious, just speculate, leave her down and observe it again, if this person is really a puppet, I don't bother to deal with it, I am afraid that it is the former, the ever-changing human skin, the appearance of different identities, it is extremely scary to think about it, and I am afraid that even the king will be played by the leather painter.

There are several major evil arts in the rivers and lakes: the art of refining puppets, it is difficult to refine the heart, it is difficult to draw skin and bones, and it is difficult to draw the heart. Refining the pupil demon method, demagoguery. There are even more sorcery that no one knows. If the Jianghu Taoist has a deep understanding, it is very likely that he will make a very anthropomorphic doll, but his mind is not open.

"Does the emperor know about the haunted incident over there in the Xia Kingdom?"

Not long ago, there was a series of tragic cases in Huangxi Town, where people were thrown on the street and their faces were snatched, or newlyweds, and women who did not leave the cabinet died tragically, which happened more than once. Xia Guo's courtiers were very busy, and they couldn't find any clues.

Qian Yuchen bowed slightly: "Of course I know, and the small countries nearby also know about it, but I don't know what Chen Wensheng will do when he is there." However, according to that person's strong character, he will definitely not be able to bear the temperament to help the king of Xia find out about this matter, and when he thinks of the little girl who is busy with herself on weekdays, and now she is busy working for others, she suddenly felt unspeakable discomfort in her heart.

Xiao Qi opened his mouth worriedly, and the hand shaking the fan paused and put away the fan and put it on the table beside him: "I'm afraid that Miss Ying will have something to do with this time." ”

"Send some people to observe secretly these days, if she is just a puppet, she can't find out when, so let's slow down in advance." There is no source to investigate this matter, even this Ying girl happened to meet it today, and she felt that this person had some problems and was directly recruited into the palace.

The candlelight flickered and the atmosphere froze suddenly, and they couldn't see Qian Yuchen's expression at this time, and both of them chose to be silent and no longer speak. At the other end of the night, the white moonlight shone through the shadows of the trees, shining in the alleys.

The night was cold and windy, and the streets were deserted and the porters were closed. The eaves were stained with dew, reflecting the fluorescence of the moonlight.

A figure came out of a dark corner, the moonlight stretched his shadow very long, he walked a little staggering, carrying a sack in his hand, and some viscous liquid leached out, dripping all the way, throwing the sack onto the carriage, and he was alone in the street, walking back and forth repeating the action.

Everyone was still celebrating the newlyweds, and when the newlyweds were married, they heard the bride screaming. Everyone pushed the door and saw a mess on the ground, the blood on the ground pierced people's eyes, the smell of blood rushed to the nose, a woman in red sitting on the ground turned her head painfully when she heard the sound, the flesh and blood were blurred, and the black and white eyes looked at everyone, and it was terrifying to see this appearance.

When the people present saw this, they wanted to lift their feet and leave this place, but they fell to the ground unconscious. The man with the girl's skin in his hand came out, his black clothes covered with blood, and he crouched down with his head tilted, and his bones gurgled and made a terrible noise, and he stuffed the fallen people into the sack that had been prepared one by one.

There are fewer and fewer people in Huangyao Town on the Xia country, and people are panicked when they see the tragic deaths of their acquaintances around them. The rich paid to rent horses to flee for their lives, and the poor sold their belongings at home for cash and left the haunted place on foot. Everywhere you can see the bright red liquid, splashed on the ground, on the walls and tiles of the houses, and the smell of fish is disgusting. The report to the court only said that the matter was being handled, but the person was still brutally killed.

"The corrupt court can't even catch a murderer, what's the use of incompetent people like you?" A young man slapped the county yamen and shouted loudly, and the door was full of people, their faces full of anger and tears, and the woman gently coaxed the crying child in her arms.

Another young man comforted his wife and children, and also stood up indignantly and sneered at the door: "It's all mediocre and incompetent, and Huangyao Town is about to become an empty city under such cruelty." ”

"Rubbish!"

"The incompetence that doesn't even dare to show his face!"

Everyone scolded for a long time, but the door still didn't open, and they sat aside in anger and panted loudly. A few days ago, the officials above assured them with confidence that the murderer had been arrested, so please rest assured. A few days later, someone was inexplicably killed, and that day a terrible scream spread throughout the streets, and the unknown fear in my heart spread again.

Huangyao Town is the most marginal town in the Xia Kingdom, and it is also a famous place for beauties. But there are not many people in it, so there are more than 100 people. There are very few people left of the toss of recent months.

Not only Huangyao Town suffered a tragedy, but many other situations occurred in the marginal towns of the Xia Kingdom.

Because it is some distance from the capital, this matter will only reach the emperor when it is a big trouble, and it will be several months before someone is sent to deal with it at this time.

The maidservant girl in the palace timidly spoke, and before she finished speaking, she heard a knocking sound from above, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly stopped the sound, and looked like she wanted to speak and stopped.

"What do you say? This is the one hundred and eighth tragedy? Oh, no one found out, it was all done by a murderer. Chen Wensheng said sharply, his good-looking eyebrows furrowed tightly, and he gently softened his eyebrows with his hands annoyingly.
