"Master Situ, Princess Shengping is invited." A little eunuch stood respectfully on the side of the road, as if he was waiting for Phantom Tong here.

"Eldest princess?"

The title of princess is generally given by the emperor at the ceremony, and it is generally used on formal occasions, and Huantong only knew about it at the banquet two days ago, but now that it is suddenly mentioned, there is still some reaction.

"Exactly, it's time to go to Situ Gongzi and the minions."

The little eunuch is not in a hurry or impatient, even if there are many palace maids and eunuchs who have gathered around him, he is still slow and logical.

Huantong couldn't figure out what Teng Ziyan was looking for him to do at this time, but after all, it was Princess Shengping who was looking for him as a third-grade official, and it was not easy to shirk it, so he followed.

Coincidentally, there is a henchman of Teng Zinan among the onlookers, as one of the only two princesses in the palace, she is very "attentive" to her sister.

Originally, he just had a good impression of Phantom Tong, but now he found that this suave son brother and sister had close contact, and he had the idea of competing in his heart.

Just when Huantong couldn't even handle An Xiruo's affairs, he had another trouble inexplicably, but this is all for later.

Standing at the door of Yukun Palace, Huantong's heart jumped twice, and he felt a chill in his back, and he was inexplicably a little flustered.

Along the way, Phantom Tong always felt strange, but he couldn't say it.

Seeing that Huantong stopped at the door, the little eunuch who led the way turned around: "Childe, what are you doing in a daze." ”

Huantong came back to his senses, only to realize that what made him feel strange was this little eunuch, he was not the person next to Teng Ziyan.

It's not Teng Ziyan, but he also arrived at Yukun Palace, and Huantong has already guessed one or two in his heart, and it is probably Xiao Shufei, the biological mother of the eighth prince, who is looking for him.

Huantong and Concubine Xiao Shufei have never had anything to do with each other, and during the years he lived in the palace, the two rarely met.

Huantong couldn't imagine what it would be for Concubine Xiao Shufei to find herself, so she simply didn't want to, and she would naturally know when she saw it.

In the room, Concubine Xiao Shufei was sitting alone at the table, playing against herself. The little eunuch who led the way just invited Huantong into the house, closed the door, and left.

Concubine Xiao Shufei seemed to be too engaged, and she didn't notice that Phantom Tong had come, and she was still immersed in her own chess game.

Huantong thought that he was fine anyway, so he didn't remind Concubine Xiao Shu, stood aside, and watched chess with relish.

At the end of a game of chess, Concubine Xiao Shufei still didn't talk to Huantong, didn't even look at him, picked up the Heart Sutra on the table, and began to read.

Huantong guessed that this was to give himself a dismount, so he was not in a hurry, stood aside, closed his eyes, and began to practice his mind.

When you arrive in Kyoto, no matter where it is, day or night, it is chaotic, Xiao Shufei is rare and quiet here, but it is a good place to practice the mind.

The sound of the scroll resting on the table was soft, almost silent.

Phantom Tong opened his eyes with the sound and found that Concubine Xiao Shu was looking at him.

"Weichen knocks on the lady concubine, the lady is safe."

"You can hold your breath, get up." The voice is flat, and I can't hear joy or anger.

Phantom Tong got up and shook his shirt, and there was no extra movement.

Concubine Xiao Shufei looked at the young man in front of her, she was still unflustered in the face of herself, and she was a little more sure in her heart, but there was still no joy on her face.

"Recently, Childe and Princess Shengping have been getting very close." Concubine Xiao Shufei raised her eyes and glanced at Phantom Tong, and continued, "You know, not everyone can be a colt, at least you are not qualified now. ”

"Wechen understands ......"

Huantong knew that Concubine Xiao Shufei had misunderstood, thinking that she and Ayan were in love, and wanted to explain, but Concubine Xiao Shufei grabbed the conversation.

"It's good to understand, Princess Sheng Ping's background is not good, and the emperor loves her more. This palace sees that you have a good character, and if you make some more meritorious contributions, this palace will help you ask the emperor for marriage. ”

Huantong looked at Concubine Xiao Shufei with a serious face, she really treated Ah Yan's marriage carefully, and she was also happy in her heart, this happiness was not coincidental, and it was written on her face.

When Concubine Xiao saw it, she thought that he really liked Teng Ziyan and was happy for the promise she had just given.

"Okay, let's go."

Huantong walked out of the house in a daze, and only remembered after walking two steps, but he forgot to explain.

Looking back at the confined wooden door, he sighed, I am afraid that this misunderstanding will not be unraveled for a while.

When I left the palace, the sun was already in the west, and the afterglow was shining on the red palace walls, leaving a patch of shadows on the trees.

In some shady corners, moss grows wildly. Phantom Tong passed by them, not even noticing.

This is the most prosperous and stately palace in Kyoto, and the people only dare to hide in the shadows when the sun sets, but they can't peek into the walls.

Phantom Tong stepped on the shadows, along the gap path between the two palace walls, walked from Yukun Palace to the palace gate, got into the carriage, carried the sun, stepped on his own shadow, and ran to the calm alley.

"Did you ask anything?"

Phantom Tong's voice came from inside the carriage, with a little tiredness.

"Sister Meng said that it is indeed the queen's handiwork."

Meng Qi drove the carriage as he turned around and replied to the carriage.

There was no sound in the carriage, except for the sound of galloping horses' hooves and the "creaking" of wheels rolling on the ground.

Phantom Tong sat in the carriage, as if he had lost his soul, and looked at the carport blankly, unable to say a word.

"Boss, it's here."

The carriage stopped, and Meng Qi carefully lifted the curtain and poked his head in.

Phantom Tong withdrew his gaze on the ceiling and fell on Meng Qi.

"So, from the very beginning, Xiaoxi approached me for a purpose, she has always been on the queen's side, even if I tell her about Meihuawei, she won't believe me, right."

Meng Qi scratched his head, there was no one he could answer this series of questions.

"Boss, I don't know."

Meng Qi thought that Huantong would call him stupid, but he did laugh wildly.

"I should have known that this road was destined to be lonely."

"Boss ......"

What Huantong said, Meng Qi didn't understand a word.

Phantom Tong had returned to normal at this time, rubbing Meng Qi's hair.

"Go home, come with me to eat something delicious, I'm tired of this day, and you've worked hard."

As soon as he heard the delicious food, Meng Qi immediately came to his senses, quickly adjusted off the carriage, and waited for Huantong to take him to eat.

Phantom Tong got out of the car and found Yilian standing at the door with a cold face.

"Situ Huantong! You know you're back, it's scared to death. ”

As he spoke, Yi Lianwa cried out and lay on Huantong's body, snot and tears rubbing against him.

"Okay, okay, you see, I'm not doing well."

Huantong opened his arms and let Yilian, who was crying into tears, go up and down, left and right, and check it carefully.

After making sure that Phantom Tong was unharmed, Yilian sobbed and stopped crying.

"My brother was taken away, Brother Ajiang doesn't know where to go, Lian'er has been waiting for you here for a day."

Phantom Tong held Yilian in his arms and gently patted her on the back to ease her.

"Ajiang is missing?"

Yilian shook her head, "Brother Ajiang has already returned, but as soon as he came back, he locked himself in the room, which is weird." ”
