Chu Junlan was stunned and looked back suspiciously: "Big brother? ”

Meng Hanliang saw that the two brothers and sisters had something to say, frowned and said, "You guys hurry up." He turned away, leaving the space to them.

Chu Huating said: "You go back first." I followed Meng Dutong in. My father's outfit is so familiar to me that I don't have to go there to find it. ”

Chu Junlan immediately frowned: "Big brother, I'll go with you, one more person has more strength, we can look for it faster, Meng Dutong's people don't recognize their father, they can only find the same official rank and civil official's supplement, but I don't know anything about accessories, if you want to find someone as quickly as possible, you still have to rely on the two of us, we ......"

"You're obedient!" It was the first time that Chu Huating was so fierce when facing Chu Junlan, "This matter is a big matter, it is enough for one person to go, there is no need for both of us brothers and sisters to go in, you go back now and wait for news, don't waste time here." ”

Chu Junlan looked at Chu Huating's eyes, saw a strong sense of worry, reluctance and concern, and immediately understood his concerns.

If something really happened in the palace, the person who entered Fushou Garden with Meng Hanliang would definitely be caught, Chu Hualiang didn't want her to get involved, he just wanted her to watch the situation outside, if it wasn't good, it would be good to escape, or if she relied on Gongding Palace, she could also try to save herself.

At the critical moment, the eldest brother wants to push her out of trouble and resist it himself!

"Big brother! I ......"

"Lan Lan!" Chu Huating's eyes lit up resolutely, and he said, "I'm your eldest brother, you have to listen to me!" Besides, it is most appropriate for me to do this, once there is a case, you are more capable than I am to fulfill the wishes of both you and me! ”

"Big Brother ......"

"Do you want me to get down on my knees and beg you!"

Chu Huating gritted his teeth, bent his knees and was about to kneel, but was supported by Chu Junlan's arm.

There was a heat in her eyes, and she shook her head and said, "Big brother, okay, I'm obedient, you go in with Meng Dutong." Be careful! ”

Chu Huating relieved his heart, patted Chu Junlan's fair cheek, and scraped the tip of her nose with his fingers.

"Okay, don't cry with a sad face, you go back obediently and wait for news first. I'll find that guy. ”

Chu Junlan was sad for a while, and tears filled his eyelashes, but he didn't let the tears fall.

"Okay."

The brother and sister returned to Meng Hanliang and explained the arrangement, Meng Hanliang bowed his head and said, "It's okay, you can go with me to change into the clothes of the guard, and it is also convenient to act." ”

"Yes, there is Lord Laomeng."

Chu Huating followed behind Meng Hanliang, ignoring the pain, and quickly approached the gate of Fushou Garden.

Chu Junlan watched the backs of the two disappear into realization, so he went to lead his horse and walked up and down the mountain step by step.

The guards in front of the gate of Fushou Garden saw that Chu Junlan had gone away, so they all relaxed.

And Chu Junlan tied the horse to a hidden place halfway up the mountain, patted the horse's neck and whispered, "You wait for me here." Then he turned around and quietly returned to the outside of Fushou Garden from another route.

This is the courtyard wall near the mountain wall of Fujuyuan, which is still brightly lit, but there are no defenders at the moment.

Chu Junlan didn't dare to act rashly, because the emperor was feasting here, and the defenders must be strict, so she hid in a dark corner, covered her face with a handkerchief, and waited quietly.

Sure enough, in just a moment, there were guards looking for defense walking by.

Chu Junlan still didn't move, and waited for a while, and after the defenders passed three times, she found the law of their change of guard, and then took advantage of the gap to touch it silently, and tucked the skirt to the waist, and then neatly jumped up to the wall, dodged into the courtyard, and hid in the dark bushes.

She still did not move, concocted the same method, once again found out the time of the change of guard in the courtyard, unknowingly touched into the inner courtyard, found a little eunuch's sunflower shirt and black gauze hat in a side room used for palace people to put on, and wrapped her clothes and hid them in the bushes in the hidden place in the courtyard.

Wearing an iron-gray round-necked sunflower shirt and a black gauze hat, Chu Junlan relaxed his muscles, bowed his head, and carefully walked all the way to the main hall.

At this time, in the main hall of the carved gallery and painting building, hundreds of officials gathered, and the staggered plans were staggered, although there were no noisy people, the scene was extremely lively.

The officials sat down according to their status, but there were also many good officials who did not stick to the official rank and sat in one place, and some officials walked around and toasted each other.

Chu Huating followed behind Meng Hanliang, although he entered the main hall, he was dazzled by the black official uniform, there are so many people, how easy is it to find it?!

He gritted his teeth, contemplated, and walked through the inconspicuous places of the hall like the first of the ordinary patrols, carefully inspecting everyone wearing a familiar rank of mending clothes without attracting attention, and even the first emperor who sat upright in a red regular robe and a winged crown did not bother to take a closer look.

The Son of Heaven, who was not confused, of medium stature and well-maintained, sat in the first place with a smile on his face, smiled and ate a small cup of honey water, and encouraged the toasting officials again.

No one counted whether the emperor ate real wine, and the encouraged officials were full of excitement, respectfully singing praises and virtues, and then retreated excitedly.

After that, someone came to toast again.

Chu Huating looked for a long time and didn't see that familiar figure, hot sweat broke out on his forehead, he didn't give up, gritted his teeth and continued to approach the front, approaching the tables in front of him without arousing suspicion, and his eyes swept over the place where the emperor was, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Isn't the chief butler Ma Yan, who is wearing a cyan white pheasant patch suit and wearing familiar accessories around his waist, who is toasting the emperor!

Chu Huating was anxious, and Meng Hanliang was at the other end of the hall. Chu Huating didn't care much, so he rushed to the emperor and shouted, "The emperor is careful! There are assassins! ”

This earth-shattering sound silenced the originally noisy hall, and time seemed to have stopped.

As soon as Ma Yan bent down, when he heard this, he knew that he had been exposed, the emperor was in front of him, he was one step away from him, he couldn't give up!

Anyway, what to do at this time has already been discovered!

Ma Yan gritted his teeth, pulled out the dagger hidden in his arms, and was about to rush forward.

"Escort! Escort! There are assassins! The lieutenant immediately stood in front of the emperor, and the guards rushed up.

Ma Yan gritted his teeth and stabbed at the throat of the lieutenant, who knew that before the blade cut through the flesh of the lieutenant, there was a brute force behind him! Someone hugged him fiercely from behind, and a familiar voice yelled in his ear:

"Protect the Emperor! Fast! ”

It's Chu Huating!

Ma Yan couldn't believe it, his heart was on fire, hatred was surging, and seeing that the guards had already felt that he knew that he couldn't do anything, his backhand was a knife.

At the same time, the royal guard also felt in front of him, and forcefully pressed Ma Yan to the ground.

Chu Huating covered his right abdomen and slowly knelt on the ground, blood gushing out.

The sudden change, the sudden gushing of blood, the startled courtiers shouted again and again: "Your Majesty! How are you! ”

Chu Junlan stood at the door of the main hall, and saw Chu Huating slowly falling to the ground from a distance and clearly, clenching his fists.

For a moment, she couldn't move, her brain seemed to have stopped, or her years of excellent professionalism as an agent recalled her sanity, making her force herself to calm down and analyze the location of the knife in Chu Huating's body.

I can't see clearly, I know too little information!

Chu Junlan leaned against the root of the wall, and took advantage of the panic of the hundred officials to get closer without attracting attention.

Fortunately, it's not critical. But the bleeding in that place was terrible.

Chu Junlan was anxious and wanted to step forward to save people, but before his steps moved, Chu Huating had already opened his mouth with difficulty.

"Your Majesty, this person, this person pretended to be my father, stunned my father, stole my father's official uniform and the waist card of his peers......"

The emperor stood up, casually pulled away the lieutenant officials and guards who were blocking him, and looked condescendingly at the handsome young man who was kneeling on the ground with his waist and abdomen covered, and then looked at Ma Yan who was suppressed on the ground.

The emperor smiled lightly and said in a low voice, "Who are you?" ”

"Caomin, the son of Chu Cailiang in Langzhong of the Ministry of Works, Chu, Chu Huating." Chu Huating spit out this sentence with difficulty, his head was covered with cold sweat, and he trembled all over.

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, "Are you the son of the Chu family?" As if realizing that it was strange for him to ask such a question, the Emperor added, "I have heard of you. ”

The officials were silent, all paying attention to what was happening ahead.

Chu Junlan saw that the emperor did not immediately shout and shout to kill, but was talking to Chu Huating, and his heart was slightly relieved.

She knew that if she wanted to get out, now was the best time, and if there was an assassin's assassination, the precautions here would definitely become tighter, and if she continued to stay, it would be difficult to get out after a while.

Thinking of this, Chu Junlan glanced at his trembling brother again, gritted his teeth and retreated, returned the same way, took the clothes he had hidden, and according to the time of changing the guard that he had figured out before, he unknowingly walked out of Fushou Garden, and went straight to the place where she hid her horse halfway up the mountain.

When she changed into her clothes and galloped back to the city, fear and vulnerability came over her.

The night breeze ruffled her cheeks and long hair, and tears were left behind her, sparkling like falling stars.

But she only gave herself a moment of vulnerability.

When he entered the city gate with the help of Cao Qin's relationship and went straight back to Chu's house, Chu Junlan had calmed down.

At this time, night fell, the hustle and bustle of the Chu family had ended, the Chunshan class of the singing hall had already said goodbye and left, and the guests had dispersed, Xiao Xu, Chu Huazhang, and Chu Caijun politely sent off the male guests, and after Ye Yijian and Fu Zhiheng said goodbye, Xiao Xu did not leave, but returned to the guest house.

Yes, as soon as Chu Junlan knocked on the door of the guest house, he saw Xiao Xu's handsome face.

"You're back...... Why are you crying? What happened? Xiao Xu's tone suddenly tightened, and he grabbed Chu Junlan's hand, brought her to him, and looked at her delicate face through the not-so-bright light, "What's wrong?" You tell me, I'll help you out. ”

Chu Junlan's tears that had been suppressed came up again, but he was smiling on his face: "I obviously didn't cry." ”
