Chapter 81: The Same Problem
Zhou An crossed the high threshold, entered the empress's bedroom with very light steps, and then turned around and gently closed the door.
The empress's dormitory is called Kun Yuan Palace, also known as Kun Yuan Palace.
Whether you look at this Kunyuan Hall from the outside or enter it, you can feel its magnificence, splendor, luxury and dazzling, but it is too empty, giving people a sense of cold and loneliness.
The palace is decorated with drapery of different colors, and on the innermost side, a dragon bed surrounded by a golden curtain.
Zhou An closed the door, only turned around, and was about to walk inside, when he immediately noticed that a graceful woman dressed in tulle had just turned over and just got off the dragon bed, walked to the side of the stage, and lit a candle.
This girl is very tall, under the tulle she is wearing, the red belly pocket is looming, Zhou An didn't look at it much, and walked in.
He knew her.
This woman's name is Kou Dong'er, and she is the personal maid of the empress, and the first female official in the current Da Nei. Kou Dong'er is much older than the empress, she entered the palace fifteen years ago, when she was eight years old, and the empress, who was still the eldest princess at the time, was only two years old.
So it's not an exaggeration to say that Kou Dong'er grew up watching the empress.
Kou Dong'er is good at martial arts, and her martial arts talent is extremely high, she can become the personal maid of the eldest princess at that time, which has a lot to do with her high martial arts talent, and she is also the princess's personal maid, Kou Dong'er's personality, and Princess Yunjing's personal maid Hongxing, can be said to belong to two extremes.
Hongxing is lively and cute, and when she was a child, she was called particularly skinny, and she was the number one accomplice of Princess Yunjing's mischievous mischief.
Kou Dong'er is introverted, not introverted, but calm.
She is a person who has very few words, Xiao Anzi has been a long-term attendant for the eldest princess for four years, and in the past, naturally he could often see Kou Dong'er, so he also understood how taciturn Kou Dong'er was, it was really a few words...... It can even make people who haven't been in contact with her for a long time mistake her for being mute.
However, Kou Dong'er only talks little, and his personality dictates it, and it is not a mental illness.
In the past, when the empress was not the empress, Kou Dong'er was often with the empress, whether it was day or night, but since the empress ascended the throne, it was rare to see Kou Dong'er by the empress's side.
It's not that she has fallen out of favor, but because of the change in the status of the empress, she is now busy with court affairs every day, so she doesn't need Kou Dong'er to accompany her often, and the people who often accompany the empress during the day, except for Kang Longji, the chief manager, are mostly eunuchs who are celebrants, or low-level palace maids who are responsible for serving tea and pouring water.
So the current situation is that during the day, it is rare to see Kou Dong'er, Zhou An has traveled for so long, and he has only seen Kou Dong'er twice, the first two times were just a face-to-face shot, this is the third time.
However, Kou Dong'er is only not often by the empress's side during the day, once it is night, Kou Dong'er will immediately become the closest person to the empress, and she will accompany the empress to sleep.
She is the empress's personal girl, and she wants to warm the empress's bed, especially now, it is late autumn, if there is no warm bed, when she just gets into the quilt at night, it is very cold.
Of course, Kou Dong'er and the empress share the bed as companions, warming the bed is only secondary, her real task is to protect the empress's safety!
It is said that Kou Dong'er, who is only twenty-three years old this year, is already a powerhouse in the Earth Hell Realm, and is second only to Haqige in talent among the female warriors in the inner court.
……
Kou Dong'er lit the red candles on the tables on both sides of the dragon bed, and the surroundings of the dragon bed became very bright.
Zhou An also approached, but he didn't dare to get too close, he stopped three feet away, bowed down and said, "Holy Lord." ”
Behind the curtain, the empress had sat up from the dragon bed, she was dressed in a golden gauze skirt, her black hair was draped over her shoulders, compared to the posture of Kou Dong'er, she looked much thinner, after all, she was only seventeen years old, only from a physiological point of view, she was not yet open.
"Xiao Anzi, why are you today? You have just become my regular attendant, and you will come to watch me for the ......night," the empress's voice came from behind the curtain as thin as a cicada's wings.
"The saint, the slave is the first time to officially join the Qianwu Palace, and I haven't given you the night before, thinking that I will be familiar with it earlier, don't wait for the future to be unfamiliar and make a mistake...... It's here......" Zhou An said respectfully.
"Alas, don't work too hard, I still count on you to do great things for me in the future, but don't get tired at a young age."
"The spirit of the slave is full of heads, thank you for your care."
The empress asked Zhou An to come in to talk, and it didn't seem that there was anything important to say, she just wanted to find someone to talk to, and she only asked Zhou An some irrelevant things.
After Kou Dong'er lit the candles on the tables on the left and right sides in front of the dragon bed, he stood on the edge of the dragon bed, motionless like a piece of wood, without saying a word.
The empress and Zhou An talked a few words, talking and talking, but then asked in a changed voice: "Xiao Anzi, you and I talk about it, this morning, what kind of vote, how did you come up with it?" It actually made Wu Xukuan's old fox deflated......"
"The minion didn't think much about it, he just made wisdom out of his hurry."
"Hurry up wisely, okay...... Then, Xiao Anzi, you answer me honestly, were you afraid of going up this morning? ”
"Afraid! How can you not be afraid, it would be a lie to say that you are not afraid, but it is not him Wu Xukuan who is afraid of the slave. ”
"Oh? So what are you afraid of? ”
"What the slave is afraid of is that he will be taken away by this Wu Xukuan and steal the country, and he is afraid that the people of Li in the world will suffer a greater calamity because of him Wu Xukuan, and they are also afraid of ...... Holy Lord, because he Wu Xukuan was wronged, the master humiliated the slave to death, and the slave must not let Wu Xukuan's traitor succeed! ”
The Empress was silent.
After a while, she actually laughed again.
"Ha, I really let Yunjing's girl say it right, I don't know what Xiao Anzi has experienced in the past few years, it seems that you have changed as a person, you have become able to speak well, and you have a flamboyant tongue."
"The minion is telling the truth." Zhou An said this, but he was a little aggrieved.
"Alright, I know you're faithful." The empress said a word, moved her buttocks on the dragon bed again, and lay down on her side, as if she had found a comfortable position, supported her forehead with one hand, and slowly spoke again: "Xiao Anzi, you say, what will Wu Xukuan do tomorrow?" ”
"The minions don't know." Zhou An replied very decisively, he really couldn't think of this.
"Hmm...... Do you think there is a way to solve the current situation? The empress asked again, and Kang Longji also asked Zhou An a similar question.
"Yes!" Zhou An replied very decisively.
"Oh? What's the solution? The empress asked.
"Catch what should be caught, kill what should be killed!" Zhou Andao, he also said this to Kang Longji.
"What's the solution?" The empress asked rhetorically, such a simple and straightforward truth, of course the empress understands, but this is the most difficult thing to do! Who should be arrested? Who should be killed? Of course, it was Wu Xukuan, but it was impossible to do.
Arrest Wu Xukuan's cronies?
Which important minister can easily move? For example, if he really moved him directly, he would definitely force Wu Xukuan to rebel directly by force, as long as Wu Xukuan felt threatened, he would not wait.
What's more critical is that Wu Xukuan is currently in charge of the imperial court, and it is difficult to say how far the empress's orders can be carried out of the palace.
Therefore, what Zhou An said was the same as what he didn't say.
"Holy Lord, you didn't understand what the slave meant." Zhou Andao.
"Huh? So what exactly do you mean? ”
"The meaning of a slave is to capture a group of people and kill a group of people!"
"This ...... What's the difference? The empress still didn't understand.
Zhou An also knew that he was too tactful in expressing himself, but he was really not good at expressing it too directly.
