Volume 1: The Wind and Smoke Rise, Chapter 7

Recently, people who have been to Zuishenglou are talking about a big gossip, and Lord Yan, who has always been known for not being close to women, actually brought back a woman from Zuishenglou, and that woman was very arrogant, and she was about to climb to the head of his wife when she was young. But they didn't know that the woman in the gossip was often sitting next to them.

Lord Yan did give me a place to live in Qi Country, but the way was too high-profile. As for climbing on the head of my wife, I was wronged too much!

I've been wandering around the palace for a few days, and there is a small hill nearby, where I can observe the general layout of the palace. I found a fortune teller on the street, and I asked him to calculate an auspicious day of the zodiac, and I was ready to go. After this is done, I can return to Zhou Kingdom with peace of mind, so as not to continue to burden Lord Yan!

I put on my nightwalking clothes, blew out the candles, and went out the window. I overheard one thing in the drunken building, Emperor Qi Chu Hao got a peerless beauty and was named Liu Concubine, which is really "thousands of favors in one", and there is a trend of "the king is not early". For Chu Hao's absurd harem, I am quite happy to see it. It's just that the title of this concubine Liu and the time she entered the palace make me a little suspicious, isn't it an old man?!

I have figured out where the palace is most loosely guarded, the moon is bright today, there are pros and cons, I can easily see the reason, but I must hide myself.

This palace, I just looked at it outside, and I didn't know the specific layout inside. Where is Concubine Liu, I have to find it myself. Unfortunately, I stumbled into a nobleman's room in the palace! When the nobleman saw me through the bronze mirror, she had not had time to open her mouth to scream, and I had already quickly covered her mouth. I lowered my voice and said, "If you speak up, I guarantee you won't live more than a quarter of an hour!" If you don't scream, you blink, and I'll let go of my hand. ”

Seeing her blink desperately, I faithfully let go of my hand. She took out a large handful of jewelry from the dresser and stuffed it into me, "Hero! You've got these things, and you're going to go. ”

I waved my hand and threw the things she had stuffed into me on the ground, "I don't want these, I'm here to seek revenge, not to rob money!" Niangniang, but do you know where Concubine Liu lives?"

At the mention of this name, a hint of cruelty flashed in the eyes of the woman who seemed to be delicate just now. It seems that a woman's jealousy cannot be provoked. "It turned out that I was looking for revenge on that little slut! Okay, I'll help you find the place. ”

The nobleman brought me a maid's costume, which I simply put over my night coat. She asked a maid to lead me to Yuxiu Palace, where Concubine Liu lived. She didn't forget to tell me that if I was arrested, I couldn't let Emperor Qi know that it was her people who brought me to Yuxiu Palace.

The little girl who led me to the way led me to find a place and fled in a hurry. I took off my palace maid's clothes and threw them in the grass. I climbed up to the roof of the main house of Yuxiu Palace, uncovered a piece of tiles on it, and saw two people below playing chess. The two of them sat on their sides playing chess, so I couldn't see the woman's face at all. I lay down, and I didn't know what I stepped on, anyway, a small thing fell, and it happened to fall into Chu Hao's teacup and splashed a small splash. Chu Hao and Concubine Liu also raised their heads, and my first reaction was not to dodge, but to try to see Concubine Liu's face clearly.

Unlike my shock, Liu Concubine looked calm when she saw me, she only paused for a short while, and said, "Someone! Catch the assassins! Protect the Emperor! ”

When she shouted, I had no choice but to run away. The precautions of this Qi Palace are also very good, and now the palace roads and rooftops are full of assassins who have captured me. I don't dare to fight hard, after all, I am outnumbered!

At the moment it seemed that I had to find a place to hide, and I got out of the rockery in the Imperial Garden, and escaped a group of Praetorian Guards, and I saw a bamboo forest not far away. Under the moonlight, the bamboo shadow is mottled. It should be a good place to hide. However, when I walked into the bamboo forest, I regretted it. The bamboo leaves were falling all over the ground, and I had to walk with one breath, otherwise, the bamboo leaves under my feet would squirm.

I was thinking about leaving this bamboo forest, and when I turned around, I saw a dark shadow flashing. I was vigilant, I came to the palace just to see Concubine Liu, there was no weapon in my hand, I pulled out the hairpin on my head and held it tightly in my hand. The black shadow flashed quickly, but silently, and this person's light skills were first-class.

Suddenly, I felt someone grabbing my waist, not to kill me, but to jump up and get out of this bamboo forest. He led me to a yard where my feet were finally on the ground. He was standing with his back to the moonlight, and I couldn't see his face at all. "This brother, the grace of saving his life, I will keep it in my heart, and I will repay it in the future!"

"This king saves you, there is a reason for this king, and you don't need to repay him!"

This voice! It's Chu Yi! I subconsciously took a step back, "I don't know how King Li could save me?" ”

Chu Yi ignored me and turned back to his room, "If you think that there is no one here to check this king, you can continue to stand outside and talk." ”

I hurried to keep up with him. It was dark inside, and I tried to rub the light, but he stopped me. "Here in this king, they have some scruples and dare not investigate carefully. However, when the interior is lit up, you are reflected in the window paper, and the people outside are probably about to come in. ”

He said so, and I must have to put down the flint and steel that I had so hard to touch. I vaguely saw him sitting at the table, and I found a place farthest away from him to sit down, "Lord Wang, people in my business don't like to owe favors to others. I don't know why you came to your rescue, but if he meets on the battlefield one day, he will be willing to follow the example of the ancients, and he must retreat. ”

"This king likes a contest of strength, if you retreat, it will be an insult to the Qi country." Hearing his words a little heavy, I was a little speechless, but I saw him stand up and seemed to stretch, "This king is going to rest!" The county lord, please. The king advised the lord to wait until it was almost dawn and then leave quickly. If it's dawn, you won't be able to leave! ”

I couldn't see where he was in the dark, I could vaguely tell the direction, I said "thank you" to the front, and after a long time, I heard a vague "um".

I leaned against the table with my head propped up. In order to prevent myself from falling asleep, I began to figure out what to do next. Concubine Liu, I met it according to the plan, and it is indeed an old man. This old man is really too worry-free. With what I have known about her over the years, the blow to her from the Battle of Yucheng is definitely no less than mine, and her hatred for Chu Hao is also more than that, and she is now appearing in the Qi Kingdom as a favorite concubine, which makes me unable to figure it out and can't let go.
