The courtyard of the Yanying Hall is not allowed by ordinary people. Lai Xing'er heard that someone was waiting outside the courtyard to see him, so he hurriedly followed Pang Ming out of the main hall, and came to the courtyard gate to take a look, only to see Jinping was sliding back and forth with his legs, obviously waiting here for a long time, his heart was hot, but he still smiled on the surface and stepped forward to greet him: "Your ears and eyes are well-informed, as soon as I come back, you will know the news." Are Niangniang and Princess Xueqing okay? ”

Jinping turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw that it was really Lai Xing'er himself who came out of the courtyard, and couldn't help clapping his hands happily and exclaiming: "I thought that a few boys in the palace were idle when they got up early in the morning, and they were bluffing me to play." I never thought it was really you back. Let's go, come with me to see my mother. As he spoke, he stepped forward and grabbed Lai Xing'er and was about to leave.

Lai Xing'er remembered that Yu Chengen had entrusted himself to present gifts to the two concubines when he was parting in Jingzhou, and he didn't understand the rules that ministers should avoid people's eyes when giving gifts to the harem concubines, so he immediately ordered Pang Ming to take a few little eunuchs to carry the two vermilion lacquer cages, and walk towards the harem with Jinping all the way through the city.

Jinping mistakenly thought that Lai Xing'er brought back some gifts from Luo Qi City to return to the palace to honor his mother, and did not ask more, but Lai Xing'er walked and walked, feeling a little strange, and asked Jinping: "Yuxiu Palace should go from here to the north, why do you lead us to the east?" Besides, what's wrong with the people in this palace, they look panicked when they walk, they meet each other head-on, and they don't even say hello? ”

Jinping pointed to Pang Ming and the others behind Xing'er with his hand, and replied hatefully: "Didn't they tell you? A few days ago, Prince Bin was beheaded in Yuxiu Palace, and the emperor arrested the murderer within a time limit. So, Li Jinzhong and Lu Guangting took advantage of the situation to kill in Daming Palace. In just three days. He killed hundreds of palace people and eunuchs. Now the people in the Daming Palace are panicking, and everyone is afraid that the 'Jinggong Chafang' under Li and Lu will be recognized as Zhang's eyeliner who stays in the palace, and they will be killed, so they have become what they are now. ”

"Killed hundreds of people in three days?! Did Empress Zhang really leave so much eyeliner in the palace? Somehow, Lai Xing'er remembered the rainy night by the Longshou Canal in Dongjiacheng again, and he couldn't tell what kind of taste it was like in his heart.

"Where there will be so many! If you want me to say, I'm afraid that 90% out of 10 will be unjustly killed by them. Jinping replied angrily, "I really didn't expect that." Once these eunuchs with five incomplete roots become ruthless, they are ten times more cruel and ruthless than the danger of rebellion! ”

Lai Xing'er heard her call the eunuchs by them, obviously not including herself, knowing that the secret of her own unpurified body had been seen by her, her face turned red, and she turned her head to look at Pang Ming and the others, and saw that they were all busy with their heads down, as if they hadn't heard Jinping's words, so they felt a little more relieved.

After all, he didn't witness the killing of everyone in the palace, and he swept all the eunuchs with a single stroke. I have to argue a few words for the innocent eunuch: "Isn't it like a vicious person Xie Provincial Eunuch, and my uncle ......."

Jinping was stunned when he heard this. Then he sighed, "You are not bad, but of the two you mentioned, one is dead, and the other has become the ear of the deaf." Now the Ministry of Internal Affairs is actually in charge of only Lu Guangting. ”

"Provincial Supervisor Xie is dead?" Lai Xing'er's heart sank suddenly, and he was about to ask Jinping about the truth, only to hear Jinping say: "We're here." ”

Lai Xing'er heard the sound, looked up and looked, only to see that the lintel of the palace courtyard with a wide pattern appeared in front of him was inscribed with three big characters of gold lacquer: Baoxiang Palace.

"After Prince Bin's accident, Niangniang was worried that Xue Qing would live in Yuxiu Palace and be afraid, so she proposed to the emperor to move the palace, and after being appointed by the emperor, she moved here." Jinping led Lai Xing'er and the others to the courtyard in front of him, and explained to him.

Lai Xing'er took Pang Ming and others into the courtyard, and saw that the pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard of this Baoxiang Palace were readily available, no matter the scale and shape, they were far better than Yuxiu Palace, and couldn't help nodding and praised: "It's really a good palace, and only Niangniang can live in this Daming Palace." ”

Jinping leaned back to him and whispered, "Don't say that in front of people. There were two queens living here in the first dynasty, and for this reason, Concubine Li Guifei heard that the mother and daughter moved to the Baoxiang Palace, and she was very unhappy. After that, he waved his hand to signal Lai Xing'er to wait in the courtyard, and he walked quickly into the main hall to say hello to Jing Xuan.

Jing Xuan heard Jinping report that Xing'er had returned to Chang'an safely from Luo, and was very happy, and now he was ordered to come to Xing'er to see him in the palace, and asked him to stand in front of him, up and down, with good eyes, carefully examining him, smiling, and exclaiming: "It's dark, thin, but it looks stronger and more energetic than before leaving Chang'an." Running back and forth along the way, I have suffered a lot, right? ”

When Jing Xuan saw each other, he asked for warmth from the bottom of his heart, which made Lai Xing'er feel like he was really home at this time. Compared with the emperor's cold reward in the Yanying Palace, Jing Xuan's extremely ordinary greeting made him feel more precious, and his heart was full of warmth and cordiality.

"Have you found your mother?" Jing Xuan caught a glimpse of the crystal tears in Lai Xing'er's eyes, hesitated slightly, and finally asked directly.

Lai Xing'er shook her head, and carefully recounted to Jing Xuan about the process of going to Luo with the mission to find her mother and the situation when she accidentally learned from Yu Chengen that her mother was in Jiucheng Palace when she was in Jingzhou.

Jinping was listening, and before Jing Xuan could speak, he couldn't help but open his apricot eyes, turned his face and scolded angrily: "This old puppet who kills people without blinking an eye is also good at playing tricks on people." That Tubo general's mansion has never bought a Han servant at all, he made up a nonsense for no reason, deceiving you thousands of miles away, what do you want to do when you go to some cities this time? ”

Jing Xuan stopped Jinping in time with a stern gaze, and asked Lai Xing'er: "You returned to Chang'an this time, but are you going to ask the Duke of Jin Guo in person?" ”

Lai Xing'er didn't blink an eye, and immediately replied, "Of course you have to ask." Three months ago, when I first entered the Daming Palace on an errand day, he showed me a cloth full of journals, which was indeed my mother's handwriting, so I believed everything he said. This time, I really can't think of why he wanted to deceive me and cause me to go to the city of Raksha to find my mother. ”

Jing Xuan turned around and sat down, and said thoughtfully: "This palace thinks that the Duke of Jin Guo may be doing this because of King Mu. (To be continued.) )
