I never imagined that one day I would be able to live in this magnificent palace.

As the carriage slowly drove into the East Palace, the rolling wheels running over the green bricks, I seemed to hear rows of wild geese flying high in the air, making a loud chirp.

I pinched my dress and slowly got out of the carriage.

Fu Yuying said, this time I want to live in the East Palace as a female guest, so I don't have to do the menial work that people need to do, and naturally I don't have to serve the ladies in the East Palace.

I am far away from the places where the women in the East Palace live, and naturally I will rarely see Sister Yan in the future, and since the last incident, Sister Yan has been confined in her palace as insane, so it is even more impossible to see me.

In fact, everyone knows what kind of madness she is, but because she slandered Fu Yuying before, she made this decision in order to save her life, after all, no one would care about these things with a madman.

Just as I was thinking about it, I had already followed Arashi's steps to my courtyard. As soon as I took a step forward, I saw Yi Xuan sitting on the Taishi chair in the courtyard with his eyes closed and recuperating, and he seemed to be humming a little song in his mouth.

I walked slowly to him, and although his eyes were closed, he still recognized that it was me.

"You're here."

I pursed my lips and said to him slowly, "You seem to have lived here for a long time. ”

He stretched, his eyes only opened a slit, squinted at me, and said lazily, "I have always been a doorman in his palace. ”

As soon as he had finished speaking, he closed his eyes again, and when I saw that he was so lazy, I stopped talking to him, and turned and went into the house.

As soon as I pushed open the door, I saw my mother-in-law standing aside, smiling at me and speaking out very kindly: "Miss Song, you are finally here." ”

I was a little surprised, but my face remained silent, and I asked lightly, "Why is my mother-in-law here?" ”

She replied, "The old slave is still the one sent by the prince to take care of your daily life. ”

I nodded abruptly, in response to her words, and after I walked into the back room and sat down, I slowly spoke again and asked Ning Xiao: "Roughly tell me what the situation of Ning Xiao's secret guard is." ”

She bowed, still with a shallow smile on her face, "Ning Xiao's secret guards are divided into upper guards, middle guards and lower guards, and these lower guards are generally only used as secret guards to spy on intelligence, but they are people who can only be mobilized by Gongzi, even if you can't ask them to do things at will." And this Zhongwei and Shangwei are the objects of Gongzi's key cultivation. Then there are Ning Xiao's secret guards, who will tattoo a owl on the back of their ears as a sign of identification. ”

I frowned and wondered, "Then why didn't Fu Yuying let me stab it?" ”

The mother-in-law lowered her neck slightly, and replied: "You are the leader of Ning Xiao, and you have your own wrench to prove it, so naturally you don't need to stab this owl bird." ”

I see...

I nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then I am in the East Palace at the moment, how can I communicate with Ning Xiao's people?" ”

The mother-in-law seemed to anticipate the problem, and she whistled softly, and suddenly a bird flew in through the window and stopped on the mother-in-law's outstretched index finger.

That's when I found out that it was a carrier pigeon.

My mother-in-law gently stroked the carrier pigeon a few times, then turned to look at me, and said slowly: "Please also ask Miss Song to lend me the wrench in your hand." ”

I was a little puzzled, took off the wrench and handed it to her, only to see that she put the emerald on the front of the wrench in front of the pigeon, but in a moment, the pigeon suddenly spread its wings again, and wanted to fly out of the window, and at this moment, the mother-in-law suddenly whistled again, and the pigeon just flew to the window and stood there obediently.

My mother-in-law turned her head to look at me, handed back the wrench, and said slowly: "If you need to send any news to Ning Xiao, you can use this carrier pigeon, this pigeon is specially trained by Gongzi, you only need to give it a glance at the gem on the wrench, and he will take the letter to the person who specializes in keeping carrier pigeons in Ning Xiao." ”

I suddenly remembered that Yan Hua brought her aunt to see me before, and Fu Yuying was able to hear the news immediately, and now it seems that the bottom is the letter of the carrier pigeon newspaper.

I frowned and asked, "And there are two pigeons?" ”

"Miss Song's guess is right, there are indeed two." My mother-in-law smiled and nodded at me, and said, "One of them stayed in Ningxiao and was specially for Gongzi to report the news, while the other was a carrier pigeon used by Gongzi to send messages to children." ”

Listening to this meaning, this carrier pigeon can not only communicate with Ning Xiao.

I smiled and said to myself, "That's funny." After pondering alone for a moment, I looked up again, looked at my mother-in-law and asked, "Then when will it fly back?" ”

"It only takes two quarters of an hour."

I nodded in response, and just as I was about to let my mother-in-law leave under the pretext of resting, I suddenly heard someone walk in, and I turned my head to see that it was Yeon.

She walked over slowly, put her hands on her mother-in-law's shoulders from behind, looked at her mother-in-law from the side, and said with a smile: "Mother, my daughter still has some things to talk about with the pearl, you can go to other things first, if there is any problem, my daughter will tell her." ”

The mother-in-law patted Yanhua's hand and smiled very dotingly: "Okay, then you can talk to Miss Song well, and my mother will go down first." ”

Yan Huaqiao smiled and nodded, and after her mother-in-law left, she sat down on the stool and slowly began to talk to me.

"I heard Gongzi say that your mission this time is to get rid of Li Shengqi?"

I nodded and replied, "Yes, do you know him?" ”

Yanhua shook her head and replied, "I have never crossed paths with him, and I have never asked for any news about him, so I really don't know much about him. ”

I lowered my eyes and muttered, "It looks like I'll have to test him before I can deal with him." ”

When I had finished speaking, I turned to look out the window and whistled again.

The pigeon flew in from the window again and landed slowly on the table.

After searching around, I finally found a pen and paper in the cupboard, and I raised my hand to slowly write down a string of words, and then rolled it up and stuffed it into the letter box on the pigeon's leg.

Yanhua looked at me with a frown and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”

I stretched out my right hand and showed the wrench on my thumb to the carrier pigeon, and after it flew away, I slowly said to Yanhua: "Since I don't know what the other party is, let's let a few central defenders try him first to see how much he can do." ”

Yeon-hwa realized, then nodded in response.

Living in the East Palace, it is a lot closer to go to the capital to run errands, and every time I travel, I only need to borrow the jade pendant in Yi Xuan's hand to show it to others, so that I can enter and exit the palace at will, which is very convenient.

I chose the day to do it ten days later, so on that day, Yan Hua and I left the palace early to meet with Ning Xiao's secret guard.

It's no wonder that the people in Ning Xiao are the best people selected by Fu Yuying, and I haven't seen the people who came to meet me before, although they know Yan Hua, but they are still very wary of me, and it wasn't until I showed the wrench on my thumb that they fully trusted me.

The meeting place is still in the Red Dust Pavilion, after all, it is Fu Yuying's chassis, and it is not easy to be noticed when doing things, after discussing the plan, I sent a few secret guards to find out Li Shengqi's whereabouts, once there is a chance to do it, one of them will immediately come back to inform me and Yanhua, and when it comes, Yanhua and I only need to hide in the dark and observe Li Shengqi's skills.

I sat in the wing room and waited, and it was a day's wait, and it was about three o'clock before they came with the news that Li Shengqi was wandering around the street alone, and the opportunity was rare.

So I rushed there with Yanhua and the secret guard, and we hid behind a house and quietly observed Li Shengqi's skills.

He was not a simple character, fighting three or four guards at the same time, and he was able to completely avoid all attacks, and in just a quarter of an hour, he had wounded all the guards I had sent.

Fortunately, I had already informed them in advance that the purpose of this mission was not to kill Li Shengqi, but just to test it, so they quickly left here after being injured.

Just as I was amazed by Li Shengqi's martial arts, I suddenly heard his ghostly voice: "You want to kill me with this little ability, and the prince can't help but underestimate me Li." ”

As he spoke, he gradually turned his head to look in my direction, and I quickly withdrew my gaze, and motioned for Yanhua to take me away.

"That's what the prince's people are capable of?"

The voice suddenly appeared behind me, and it really startled me.

I pulled out the soft sword that wrapped around my waist and threw it at him the moment I turned, the blade facing him straight at him, without mercy.

It was a weapon I used to defend myself, but now it's also coming in handy.

He raised his foot and kicked at my wrist, and I was quick to retract my sword in reverse, dodging his attack while dodging his attack.

"Who should I be?" After he saw my face clearly, he suddenly sneered and said, "It turned out to be you, the lost dog." ”

I looked at him, and I couldn't help but tremble a little in my heart, the contrast between the strength of the enemy and me is too obvious, and the person in front of me, I'm afraid that I may not be able to deal with it if I join forces with Yanhua.

Although I was worried, my face was very calm, and seeing that the corners of his mouth were filled with rich mockery, I responded to him with a sneer, and said slowly: "There are fireworks and willow alleys around here, and it turns out that Lord Zuo of the Weizhen Imperial Court still has such hobbies." ”

He chuckled lightly and said coldly: "I came here just to want to know which lifeless person dares to send someone to follow me." ”

It turned out that he had been suspicious for a long time... This person is really not simple.

"Since you want to die so much, then I will fulfill you."

As he spoke, he waved his right hand at me, and at the same time, Yanhua pulled the hairpin off his head and threw it at him.

He turned around quickly, dodged the hairpin very easily, and just as he was about to do it again, he was suddenly stopped again.
