Chapter 16: The Dagger

The palace maid led the way in front, but the more convenient it was, the more secluded it became, and she couldn't even hear the sounds of birds and beasts.

Because it was the first time she entered the palace, she didn't bring any maids with her, and she was not very familiar with everything in the palace.

It's just that Concubine Xian should have been favored for many years, how could she live in such a remote palace?

She looked at the palace maid's trance-like expression, and knew it in her heart.

"Oops."

Meng combs his eyebrows suddenly reached the ground, revealing an expression of unbearable pain.

"What's wrong with the princess?"

"I think I've got my foot down."

She asked the palace maid to call the imperial doctor for herself, but her feet hurt so badly that she couldn't move.

"Princess, there is the palace of Concubine Xian in front of you, so please bear with me a little."

The palace maid obviously didn't take Meng Comb in her eyes very much, and when she saw her stumbling, she stood aside and treated her coldly.

If she was really the person next to Concubine Xian, how could she treat herself so slowly?

Meng combed her eyebrows and stretched out her hand to let the palace maid help her up, but the moment the palace maid stretched out her hand, the cartilage in her hand had already been sprinkled.

Fortunately, I hid a hand.

But the palace maid stepped back, flicked her sleeves, and used internal force to blow away all the cartilage.

She knows martial arts.

Meng combed her eyebrows and knew that she was not good, and she was just about to make a loud call, but the palace maid had a little acupoint on her neck, and she couldn't make a sound.

"Princess, offended."

The palace maid held a dagger in her hand and slashed it towards Meng Comb's face.

What a poisonous method!

Blood remained on Meng Comb's face, but it was not her blood but that of the palace maid in front of her.

The dagger was still in her hand, less than half an inch away from Meng Combrow's face.

The palace maid's expression was shocked, and she didn't have time to turn her head to see who killed her, so she fell to the ground and swallowed her breath.

After the palace maid fell, Jing Qicheng put away the sword.

The sword was like a snake, and with a flick of his wrist, it was hidden in his sleeve, and it was not visible from the outside.

"Being able to win this kind of insect carving skill, it seems that I think too highly of you."

Jing Qicheng relieved Meng Comb's dumb hole, and then looked at the corpse on the ground.

"Why kill her?"

With Jing Qi Cheng's skills, he should be able to stop her without hurting her.

Jing Qicheng indifferently wiped the blood on his mask, could it be that Meng Combrow was soft on his people who wanted to kill him?

"I just want to stay alive."

On the first day he entered the palace, someone wanted to be so cruel to himself, if he didn't know the mastermind behind the scenes, how could he double this account in the future?

"This kind of person is a dead soldier, and after the mission fails, he will cut himself, and even if he spares her life, he can't ask anything."

is so familiar, it seems that Jing Qicheng is really not a simple prince as he thinks.

Jing Qicheng watched him kill someone in front of Meng Comb, but there was no fear on Meng Comb's face, as if he was used to it.

This is really not the reaction of a young lady who does not go out of the door.

As a doctor, let alone a corpse, even if it is disemboweled, Meng combs his eyebrows.

"What to do with this corpse."

"It's too common for someone to die in the palace, and someone will deal with it."

Jing Qicheng took out a handkerchief and raised his hand to wipe it on Meng Comb's face.

"The prince is really sincere to me."

Meng combed his eyebrows and smiled lightly, it seems that Jing Qicheng deliberately left himself alone today, in order to see if he can survive under the claws of those jackals, tigers and leopards.

"This king has just saved you, and you look at me like you are looking at the enemy with such eyes."

"I'm afraid that if it weren't for the prince, I wouldn't be plotted."

Meng combed his eyebrows and said unceremoniously.

Jing Qicheng laughed, and it was really a woman who had a temper with herself.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the Golden Hazel Pavilion."

There are 3,000 beauties in the emperor's harem, but in addition to the queen, it is this concubine who has been able to sit firmly in the harem.

The Golden Hazel Pavilion is the name given by the emperor himself to show the deep friendship between himself and the concubine.

It's just that the emperor's expression is worthless in Meng Comb's eyes.

In the face of power, only those whose closest relatives can be killed can sit on the dragon chair.

Concubine Xian is different from the queen, she looks like a very docile woman, and the layout in the palace is not as gorgeous as the main hall, giving people a homely feeling.

Meng combed her eyebrows and sat honestly next to Jing Qicheng, and Concubine Xian couldn't stop praising her and saying that she was demure and polite.

"Quiet and polite."

Jing Qicheng repeated these four words meaningfully on the side.

"Cheng'er is still young, if you are wronged, just go into the palace and tell your mother, and the mother will definitely make decisions for you."

Concubine Xian seemed to like Meng Combing her eyebrows very much, and rewarded her with a lot of gold, silver and jewelry.

"You're young, and you're dressed too plainly."

"The emperor said that the royal family is an example for the subjects of the world, and although the daughter-in-law is young and ignorant, the more uneasy she feels every time she sees those pearls."

Concubine Xian nodded with satisfaction, it seems that she really chose a good daughter-in-law for Jing Qicheng, and she did not lose to the crown princess at all.

Meng Combrow felt that Jing Qicheng was a lot more relaxed in Concubine Xian's place, and sometimes he could even see an obvious smile under his mask.

According to the palace rules, the palace gate must be locked before the time of the child, so Jing Qicheng and Meng Combrow left the palace before the sun went down.

The carriage drove slowly on the streets of the capital, and there was no curfew in the capital, so the shops on the street were open very late, and they would close until dawn.

In the early morning, the shops selling breakfast are open again, so no matter what time of year, the capital is always bustling.

Chun Xing was waiting at the gate of the palace early in the morning, and when she saw that Meng Combrow had come back safely, she hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"Miss, you're back."

She was afraid that those ladies in the palace would comb her eyebrows for Meng.

It's all written in the book, and the intrigue in the deep palace is the most terrifying, and it can devour people alive.

"It seems that I really need to let you read less idle books in the future."

The cleverness of the women in the palace is that they don't see blood when they kill people, and they won't show it even if they hide too many things in their hearts.

Only a fool like Mu Qingyan who thinks he can do whatever he wants through family affairs will write his heart on his face.

Today, the palace maid is afraid that she will not be able to get rid of Mu Qingyan.

"Lord, are you going to stay in the princess's room today?"

Chun Xing asked expectantly.

Jing Qicheng glanced at Meng Comb Eyebrows deeply before he spoke, Meng Comb Eyebrows said: "The prince must be tired when he accompanies his concubines into the palace today, I heard that the prince has a new singer, so it is better to let her accompany the prince to relieve his fatigue." ”

This is clearly pushing Jing Qicheng out.

Chunxing is in a hurry, what does Miss mean!

Even if it's a concubine, if you don't have grace, you're just an empty name.

Could it be that she wants to instigate the prince to find another woman?!
