The departure of Yicui Pavilion was like throwing a stone in the calm lake of Luoyang City, and there were waves in an instant. However, in the eyes of the truly powerful, the wind and snow are nothing, and they want to use their time to seize higher power and step up to the next level.

The eyes of the truly knowledgeable are in the palace, in the court, in the general's mansion, and on the body of the ten permanent servants. Compared with these, the departure of Yicui Pavilion did not affect this circle at all.

Palace.

It's been nearly ten days since the last real awakening. Emperor Han Ling also had a short period of wakefulness during this time, but the time was too short, and he soon fell into a coma again. Because he was the Son of Heaven, Emperor Han Ling was also taken care of very well by the palace maids during his coma, and there was no other condition. However, no matter how well it is taken care of, there is no peculiar smell on his body, it will not help Emperor Han Ling's current situation.

When today's physical condition, the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace are already aware, and at the beginning, they may think that it is a more serious illness and do not take it to heart. But now, after such a long time, the physical condition of the Son of Heaven has not improved under the consultation of many imperial doctors, which is enough to explain the problem.

In the palace, there is no warmth, even if there are some gorgeous things that seem gorgeous to outsiders, it is only on the surface. The eunuchs and palace ladies are all cautious and trembling, you have no way of knowing when you will offend someone who should not be offended, and you don't know if someone will stab you in the back.

In the end, the most basic and humble part of these palaces has a faint premonition. Under the great change, there will be great chaos, and like their predecessors, few people can stay in the palace for too long.

It was expected but no one dared to gossip, and after several eunuchs and palace maids were executed for talking about it in private, there was no more similar topic. However, just because you don't say it doesn't mean you won't think it this way in your heart, especially now that everyone knows about it.

"Little Grandpa."

The young little grandfather Gao walked in the palace, and the palace maids and eunuchs next to the corridor would shout like this when they saw him, with a bright smile. Little eunuchs, the palace ladies will not be stingy with such a smile, and they will not feel that their low voice will be a problem. When you can respect others, you should respect them more, even if there is more unwillingness and disdain in your heart, you can't show a trace on the surface. Otherwise, when you really want to show respect again, there is a good chance that you will find that you have no chance.

Human life is like a mustard, if they die in the palace, their bodies are likely to be hastily pulled out of the palace and buried in any place, and there will not even be a tombstone.

Xiao Gao's father-in-law is the little eunuch next to Guo Rang, and his natural status is much higher than them, and when he stomps his feet in the palace, he doesn't know how many low-status palace maids and little eunuchs will feel scared. Now, they all stopped, stood aside, and made way for the little father-in-law to walk. No one would be stupid enough to get in the way, they would just turn into a dead dog and be trampled on again.

"Hmm." Responding softly, without any other indication, Xiao Gao walked forward slowly.

Responding like this is already a very polite performance of him, otherwise he would not have walked over directly without caring about anything, and no one would dare to show dissatisfaction. He didn't have to say that, but Xiao Gao was in a very good mood today, very good.

He came to deliver something, and he handed over the simple errand of delivering something to any little eunuch, and the little eunuch would help him do it well. But it's something that anyone can do, and when the person who makes you do it is different, then it's not something that anyone can do.

There was something hidden in the sleeve of Xiao Gao's father-in-law's right arm, which was a small bottle, which seemed to be made of gold but not gold, and jade and not jade, which made him a little confused. Although he was confused, Xiao Gao's father-in-law didn't investigate much, and he couldn't see anything anyway, let alone that his father-in-law asked him to send it.

The father-in-law's order, Xiao Gao's father-in-law will naturally obey it, and he can have the status he has now, which also depends on the power of his father-in-law. If this extremely important thing in the mouth of the stepfather was not sent by him, but by someone else, Xiao Gao would be uneasy. No matter how big or small, his father-in-law Guo asked him to do it, and Xiao Gao would be obligated to do it, because it represents trust.

Everything he has now is because of trust, because of the trust of his father-in-law. Once he loses trust, he will immediately fall from a high place and become inferior to an ordinary little eunuch, and those other eunuchs who have a gap with him will only completely kill him, and will not let him have any chance to turn the tables!

It's still light, he knows too much, he knows too many things that can't be revealed, and it's secret. These things, secret, are absolutely known to outsiders. Therefore, if he loses trust, he will die and become a dead man who cannot say a word.

In the palace, sometimes you can walk very high, but sometimes, you suddenly fall down, and you will never recover. Xiao Gao was extremely afraid of that possibility, so he could only serve his father-in-law Guo Rang more wholeheartedly and firmly hold this thigh.

Of course, he also has a little ambition, as long as he is a person living in the palace, who has no ambition in his heart? Who doesn't want to be like those who look up, to take their place, to be looked up to by others.

Xiao Gao naturally has it, but he can only endure it, and when the real opportunity arises, he can't show too much ambition. If he could, one day, he would have to restore his real name, not this Xiao Gao, the name given to him by Guo Rang.

Towards the destination, he did not stop all the way, and when he reached the place, Xiao Gao's pace slowed down. This is a small courtyard in the palace, a small courtyard for the palace people to live, he walked in, walked to the room in the first row on his left, and knocked lightly.

"Squeak." The door opened, revealing a gap.

Looking through the gap, you can't see anything, only the vague outline of a figure. Xiao Gao didn't inquire about who the people in the room were, he had no interest, and it had nothing to do with him.

Curiosity kills people, and knowing too much is also the way to die. Xiao Gao was not outstanding in the palace, and at that time, Guo Rang was surrounded by many little eunuchs who served him, each of whom was more clever and more pleasing to Guo Rang, and he was the most ordinary one among them.

But now, he is the only one left among the many little eunuchs who serve. The other little eunuchs were too clever and clever to draw inferences, but they couldn't control their curiosity. Curiosity makes them understand a lot, deeper and deeper, and then, they die.

They are pleasing Guo Rang's liking, but that kind of liking is probably for puppies and kittens, like pets. Since it is a pet, then it is necessary to do a good job in the role of a pet, and once it shows its teeth towards the owner, the result can be imagined. Therefore, now there is only Xiao Gao left, he also knows a lot, but he will not ask more, he will only do the things at hand.

He took out the bottle in his sleeve, just like the bottle in his hand, holding it in his hand, Xiao Gao would not ask where the bottle came from, who it was sent to, and what the translucent liquid in the bottle did, he didn't know anything, he didn't ask.

He's here to deliver something, and after delivering it, he'll erase the memory of the thing from his memory.

He handed the bottle out of the gap, and after taking the hand inside, Xiao Gao let go of his hand, and then left here without looking back. He also had to go to his father-in-law, Guo Rang, to explain the smooth delivery of the bottle.

"It's here. Now, it's time to start planning, right? The man in the room, taking the bottle, turned around and said.

"That's it." The other man nodded, his eyes cloudy.

"We can only succeed, not fail! As long as the prince argues to death, then the prince association will naturally be able to ascend the throne as the emperor, and our wealth and power will also be retained! ”

"Of course." The man holding the bottle held up the bottle in his hand and looked at the bottle with a gentle gaze, and the slightly viscous transparent liquid in the bottle that flowed with the position of the bottle.

This kind of transparency is really exactly the same as clear water, if it wasn't in a bottle, he wouldn't dare to touch it like this. Not to mention, if he was in other places, he would only regard this as a drop of water, a water stain, and he would not imagine that this was venom, a venom that could easily poison people!

It is said that this venom, a small drop, can poison hundreds of people! This is said to be the case, and he has not seen it with his own eyes, and he does not have to go to the trouble of poisoning hundreds of people, as long as it can make one person die, then it will do!

He laughed, and there was something sinister in his smile, like a poisonous snake lying in the grass ready to devour someone.

Opening the door and walking out, he walked towards the room in the far corner of the courtyard. Now there are only two steps left, the simplest and most crucial, and the two steps that are also accompanied by countless accidents. Everything they have depends on the venom in this bottle, to see if it is as poisonous as it is rumored!

After Xiao Gao left here, another little eunuch left here, and in the same way, he also sent something. He also didn't know what was inside the bottle, he only knew where and to whom he was going to send it.

Imperial Dining Room.

He's going to take the bottle to the imperial dining room, and then there's no more to him.

A long time passed, morning, noon, evening. The imperial dining room is one of the busiest places in the palace, in addition to being responsible for the emperor's daily diet, the queen, the queen mother, the prince and the concubines are also included in it.

From morning to night, in addition to the main meal, there are also cakes in the interval, and the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room are working hard for the taste of this group of noble people. Now it is no exception, there are bursts of aroma in the imperial dining room, and the heat is billowing.

A famous eunuch and palace maid waited outside the imperial dining room, and as soon as the dishes were finished and put in the lunch box, they would carry the lunch box and send it to the table of the palace concubines.

This is an ordinary day, and for these eunuchs and palace maids, I don't know how many times I have experienced such a wait. Delivering food is actually a chore, the slightest spill, or the food has been cold, there will be severe punishment waiting for them. However, they are all good at this, and the way to deliver food is fast and steady, and the dishes and soups will be delivered while they are still warm, and there will be no spills.

When the fire in the imperial dining room was extinguished, a famous eunuch and palace maid also carried the lunch box and sent it to the palace in charge. The person who delivered the meal was not just one person, it was three people at a time, in addition to the palace maid who carried the lunch box, there were two little eunuchs who followed him. This is in case someone poisons the dish, so that the three of them can send it together and watch each other.

This is a waste of manpower, but for this era, no one can know what manpower is.

The person who made this rule doesn't know if he wants to get it, and the three of them may be able to supervise each other. But what if all three of them are their own people? Then the three of them can cooperate with each other, cover up, and accomplish the purpose to be achieved.

A palace maid who delivered a food box to the palace where the prince lived, and the two eunuchs were exactly such a trio as mentioned earlier. On the way to deliver the lunch box to the palace, in a corner, three people stopped, and they replaced the spoons and chopsticks that had been prepared in the original lunch box with the spoons and chopsticks that had been prepared.

Their movements are very fast, and their movements are very hidden, and the time they stay is only a few moments. After many rehearsals, the three of them have become extremely proficient in this set of actions, and the only thing they are afraid of is accidents, and now there are no accidents.

The hearts of the three of them were beating violently and rapidly, because of what they had done, and because of the promised reward! If they are found to be dead, but if they don't do it, they will also die, die quietly, in this case, it is better to fight hard, and if they succeed, they will have no worries for the rest of their lives!

Thinking about it, my hands stopped shaking, and the speed of my heart beat slowly decreased. The three of them looked at each other, and they could all see that the other two had a little fear and excitement in their eyes.

Nodding to each other, they continued towards the prince's palace. As long as the lunch box is delivered, they don't have to worry about anything else, and the reward is in hand.
