On this day, even at night, it was as if the heat of July could not be dissipated. The man in the purple shirt and green eyes leaned against the outside of the palace wall and yawned.

"If the head of the house is sleepy, go back first. The subordinates are guarding here. As an assassin, Su Qian was in good spirits, or rather, he was awake in the night.

Qian Mu stroked his forehead and raised his eyebrows at the other man beside him: "Cao Xili, have you thought about it?" If you regret it now, there is still room for reversal. ”

"It's my sister who offended the head of the house first. He deserves to be punished. Besides, she is crazy all day long, causing a lot of trouble to the family, if the head of the family doesn't do it, my Cao family plans to abandon her. Cao Xili's eyes crossed a touch of sadness, but it was only for a moment, and it was replaced by a decision.

Qian Mu raised his eyebrows, "...... I just don't want to have any disagreement between the Qian family and the Cao family because of Aunt Cao. ”

Cao Xili hurriedly knelt down and clenched his fists: "My Cao family has no dissent!" Cao Xigu, a stupid woman, was provoked by others and became Zhao Yin's pawn, and she has absolutely nothing to do with my Cao family! Cleaning up the portal and pruning the bad branches should have been done by my Cao family! It is already a great grace to be able to get the master of the family to plan, how dare you make a gap! ”

Qian Mu smiled faintly and turned to Su Qian, "Let's start." ”

Su Qian nodded. Untying the cage hanging at his side, a well-trained carrier pigeon flew into the red wall under the cover of night.

A wall apart, a world of difference. The three-zhang high red wall and green tiles deeply encircle the palace into a labyrinth.

Concubine Cao, also known as Aunt Cao Xi, walked through this labyrinthine city. She didn't bring any palace maids, she was alone, embroidered shoes quickly, turned around in the winding corridor, and finally came to a remote library.

In the dark night, the banging sound, banging, smashing made people's hearts tremble.

Cao Xigu's fingertips clenched suddenly, and the note in her palm was pinched. She chose to gamble, and Cao You, the last head of the Cao family, would choose a daughter or a son.

Concubine Feng's daughter is the emperor's pawn, the son of the head of the family, and the pawn of the Qian family. She Cao Xigu didn't believe it, Qian Mu could go to the edict prison for a while, and her father Cao You would not re-weigh the allegiance.

And she just received a flying pigeon from the Cao family. said that the roster was hidden in the book pavilion by Liu Hui that year.

"Brother, my father chose me." The corners of Cao Xigu's lips hooked, if nothing else, the roster should have a name: Feng Lian.

This Liu Hui once carefully trained and is ready to dedicate to Zhao Yin's good family.

is also the cousin that the Qian family claims to be to the outside world, the marriage contract of Cao Xili, and the future mother of the Cao family.

When Cao Xili followed his father into Beijing, he went to Zhao Mansion to meet the right minister, and he was confused and wanted to ask for the maid. Liu Hui in the right side room actually responded, compiled a roster of deed of sale, and sent the maid out without telling the world.

And the original roster is said to be Qian Mu, who was still called Gongzi Fei at the time, and made some agreement with Liu Hui privately, so it was not destroyed, but secretly hidden by Liu Hui.

This collection is several years, from the right prime minister's mansion to the imperial palace.

"The son of a foreign official, he dares to beg the woman who is ready to be sacrificed to the above. Brother, you were really fascinated by that vixen. Cao Xigu laughed stupidly, "If Your Majesty knows about this, you won't lose your life, but your career can't be saved...... Anyway, my Cao family has a son, and if it is missing, someone will naturally make up for it. Those who make up for it are of the same heart as me and Your Majesty. ”

Cao Xigu played a good calculation.

borrowed the old things from this roster, replaced Cao Xili, who was against him, and by the way, he could also knock on the money curtain, killing two birds with one stone, and everyone was happy.

Squeak. The dusty door of the library was opened in the night.

Cao Xigu tiptoed in, the dusty Huanghuali bookshelf seven or eight screens, all of which were the lone private collections that Liu Hui brought from the Right Prime Minister's Mansion back then, and when she became the queen, she naturally had little leisure to hold the scrolls, and gradually they were idle, and the palace people were too lazy to take care of them.

"The indigo cover written on the paper, with white lines, and seal characters...... This one? Cao Xigu cautiously touched a yellowed scroll.

Blowing away the floating dust, the moonlight reflects the five characters, "Lan Hui Concentric Record".

Cao Xigu was stunned: "Huh? Did my father misremember? Not a roster, huh? ”

With a squeak, another sound, the door of the pavilion was opened, and a gentle female voice flowed in like a ghost.

"Qian Mu, oh no, he was still called Gongzi Fei at that time, although he helped the Cao family keep Feng Lian, but in turn let the palace keep the original roster. In case Cao Xili has any different intentions, he can kill him at any time. Xiaofeng Wanyue Jiangnan Lord, heh, what kind of good person do you think that purple shirt and green eyes are? He, like the laymen in the officialdom, is just a suspicious and ruthless corner. ”

The bright yellow phoenix robe shone brightly in the night, Liu Hui smiled without a trace, fluttering, Cao Xigu's head buzzed, and froze.

Liu Hui sat down in front of the window with an unusually face, she came alone, admiring the silver-like moonlight, and seemed to be chatting with Aunt Cao Xi very casually, talking about some yellowed old things.

And what the palace got in exchange was the support of the Jiangnan officials when it was sealed. Fortunately, Cao Xili is loyal, and after Feng Lian redeemed it, he lived a small life and did not make waves. So I haven't touched that roster for a long time, you see, isn't it this one? ”

Liu Hui handed out a blue booklet from her arms, and opened a certain page, with a line of vague ink on it: Feng Lian, the son of the good family, the Liu family in the side room, and the East Pavilion candidate.

"Concubine Cao, you may have been deceived by the Cao family...... Got the wrong book. Liu Hui's eyebrows narrowed slightly.

Cao Xigu's pupils shrank, and she subconsciously wanted to justify, but she heard the sneer of the woman in the phoenix robe, as if she came from Huangquan-

"And you've touched the last book you shouldn't have touched."
