In an inconspicuous alley a mile away from the palace gate, the eldest princess sat quietly in the carriage and didn't know who was waiting.

It didn't make people wait long, but before a cup of tea, a person in a eunuch uniform hurriedly entered the car.

"You're late."

Feeling that people were coming in, the eldest princess didn't open her eyes and still sat there pretending to sleep, but the tone was somewhat uncalm to show her dissatisfaction.

"Don't look at the clothes your men have prepared for this king."

Hearing this, the eldest princess opened her eyes and looked, but the corners of her mouth were still curled.

"Is this quite suitable for you, King Cheng of Daqi can't imagine that he still has a habit of playing a eunuch."

King Cheng snorted coldly angrily, poured himself a glass of water with a familiar car, and rushed all the way over, not to mention that he had to hide from being seen by Yin Chen's eyeliner, it was indeed not an ordinary tiredness.

"Say, isn't it just a secret passage, you have to call me?"

"The person I arranged in Shoukang Palace died, and in addition to the wounds that killed the old woman with one blow, there were many unspeakable wounds on the corpse, and the preliminary guess was that they were injured by hidden weapons."

The palace man Cheng Wang heard about it, according to the eldest princess's words, there is only one possibility, that is, the secret passage is not only a secret passage, but also a mechanism to prevent the pursuit of soldiers.

"How to arrange it." King Cheng doesn't talk nonsense, he understands it directly.

"My men will drag the old lady at the banquet and we have plenty of time to get in. But there is one point, if there is a retreat signal when we enter and reach the middle, we can only go to the end. ”

This is not wrong, if you are told to withdraw in the middle, then it is very likely that you will be discovered by the Queen Mother by returning the same way.

To put it bluntly, it's either die or go through.

"I really don't understand, are you going to do it for the sake of a dead man?"

The eldest princess smiled coldly and sneered, "Aren't you too?"

The two of them were not talking, and the carriage slowly drove in when there was no one at the gate of the palace.

He'an was not in a good mood today, originally she wanted to enter the palace with the eldest princess, but she was told that the eldest princess was not in the national temple, so she let herself enter the palace alone.

The main thing is that there is no one to accompany you, and no one talks and jokes along the way. Even the grandmother who followed with her peers also adhered to the concept of never giving the little master random food, no matter how coquettish He An was, she would not buy street snacks for her.

"Lan Niangniang, can my sister eat a snack?"

"My sister is only a little old, she can only drink milk, and her teeth haven't grown yet, where can I eat those things."

"Roar, that means the delicious food is mine?"

He An shouted excitedly, she had long thought that if Sheng Ping grabbed the delicious food with her, would she give it or not?

Li Shenlan couldn't help but smile when she looked at He'an's happy appearance, it was also interesting to say that He'an came here this time and brought a grasshopper, saying that she had been looking for it from the forest for a long time and had caught it, and she insisted on giving it to Sheng Ping.

"You, don't talk about the dim sum in your Emperor's Palace, isn't it up to you to eat whatever you want to eat at the banquet?"

"Won't my sister go hungry if she only drinks milk?"

"No, it won't."

"And can she speak?"

"It's still early."

"That ......"

He An had endless questions along the way, and Li Shenlan answered them patiently. She suddenly hoped that Sheng Ping would grow up quickly, and run around with He'an in this palace, what a happy and sunny thing.

After the eldest princess and the two entered the palace, they did not return to their palace in a bright light, but avoided people and entered an inconspicuous hut.

At the palace gate at the other end, the eldest princess's carriage once again appeared in the sight of the guards.

"The princess went back so soon?"

Naturally, the inspectors did not dare to open the curtain directly to look inside the car, and no one in the station knew that the carriage at this time was just an empty car.

Outside the head hook moon rarely smiled kindly and explained:

"The princess came to Princess He Shengping for the full moon, but when she entered the palace, she found that she didn't take the gift she had prepared, but there was a family to sell it, so I had to pick it up myself."

The guard didn't want to ask anything more when he heard this, so he nodded hurriedly and leaned over to the side of the road, and sent the carriage out of the palace.

"Out again?"

"Yes, I said I didn't buy a gift and went out to buy it."

In the Shoukang Palace, Ruozhu is combing the hair of the Queen Mother.

Originally, this banquet was going to be held at night, but Yin Chen said that he was going to accompany Li Shenlan alone at night, although the Queen Mother was not very satisfied, but in the end, her son was getting more and more ideas, so it was not good to say anything.

"This is in line with her temperament, she is such a big person, and she still doesn't have a family, and her temperament is still the same as a little girl."

"What the Queen Mother said, the eldest princess is also naughty in front of you."

The Queen Mother looked in the mirror, and there seemed to be a few more gray hairs on her head. I picked it up, and then I pulled it out without closing my eyes.

"That child has been with the mourning family since he was born, and the mourning family really loves this child. If it weren't for that incident back then, Yun Xiu wouldn't have become like this, it's just that palace maid ......"

Coincidentally, the palace maid could have come out silently, but she didn't expect that there was incense at the second secret passage. But when a mortal goes in, it will be stained on his body and will not go away for a long time. If that's the case, it will be discovered by Ruozhu.

"There have been too many detailed works around the emperor and the mourning family for so many years, and I can't count them. It's just the people behind every detail. We could have found out at the beginning. Only this time the person behind it is too well hidden, and the mourning family really can't guess it. ”

"The Queen Mother didn't think that this time she was the one who became the king?"

"It's not that the wolf son of the king doesn't know about his ambitions, it's just that he wants to rebel, and he should always revolve around the emperor, why would he participate in eyeliner in Shoukang Palace?"

Having said that, Ruozhu somewhat understood what the Queen Mother meant.

"Is the Queen Mother suspicious of the eldest princess?"

"So much time has passed since then, even if the matter was handled cleanly at that time, the mourning family did not dare to guarantee that these old things would not be dug up again. If it's really Yunxiu......"

When the Queen Mother said this, she looked down at the white hair on her hand that had already been wrapped around by herself several times, if the eldest princess really had this thought, then she didn't mind sending her to accompany Queen Xiaode.

As the banquet was ready to begin, Li Shenlan took He An to the Linhua Hall with Concubine Xiang.

This banquet is not big, in addition to the palace concubines and princesses, there is also a high-ranking minister and their relatives.

Sheng Ping's body was very weak, and Li Shenlan was not at ease and held it in the main hall, so he arranged for Zang Dong to watch the child in the side hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Ha Baoyin waving his hand to his side, although the two had a holiday, but how could they turn the page, Li Shenlan naturally greeted him with a smile.

"Originally, I didn't know what gift to give Sheng Ping, but it happened that I saw this thing when I was rummaging things that day, so I brought it."

It was a wooden sheep, and Li Shenlan had heard that the sheep of Nanban was a symbol of nobility.

Ha Baoyin will inevitably feel homesick when he stays alone in the Central Plains, and Li Shenlan is a little embarrassed to accept this thing with hometown feelings for himself.

"It's okay, I have one more, so I can't bear to send you two. But this was opened by the master in Nanban, and it can be regarded as the princess praying for the little princess! ”

I have to say that since the target of Ha Baoyin is no longer Yin Chen, she has become more and more cute.

Speaking of this, it was the kindness of others, and Li Shenlan gladly accepted it. Thinking that King Cheng did not accompany her to Beijing this time, she was afraid that she would be lonely, and Li Shenlan couldn't help but say a few more words with her.

Less than half an hour later, the sound of the emperor and queen finally came outside. Everyone got up to greet them, and only after the emperor and queen mother sat down did they get up.

If Li Shenlan participated in the farewell banquet for the first time, she still felt that the banquet was fresh. So now the so-called banquet specifications made him feel a little boring, but Yin Chen said a few words first, and then the princes and ministers began to congratulate.

The only difference is that Shengping is hugged halfway, and after the polite gifts are given and the blessings are not given, and then the master of the national temple personally prays for Shengping, the banquet is considered to begin.

Li Shenlan noticed early on that Li Yunshan kept looking at himself, but no matter what he looked at, Li Shenlan ignored it.

The only benefit of the death of the second elder of the Song family was that Li Shenlan cut off contact with the Li family, which also made her feel extremely comfortable.

In the middle of the banquet, everyone's mood is inevitably a little boring, and the singers on the dance floor are melodious and graceful, but they only feel like lullaby.

"This Yunxiu really doesn't look like it, she hasn't come back for so long."

The queen mother has always attached great importance to etiquette, and the eldest princess has been gone for so long and has not returned, which naturally makes her feel unhappy.

"Maybe I'll find something playful on the street,

The emperor should stop blaming her. Yunxiu has always had this temperament, haven't you changed her all your life? ”

The Queen Mother glanced at Yin Chen unhappily when she heard this,

"You just get used to her, what has become of her since she was a child, and there are no rules in her daughter's family."

Yin Chen smiled and didn't speak, seeing that the concubine suddenly stood up, he thought he was going to toast himself, and was about to pick up the wine glass, but he saw the concubine walk to the middle of the hall and kneel.

"What's the matter, do you want to dance again when you're not happy?" Yin Chen didn't think much about it, and he was happy to talk casually today.

"Your Majesty, the concubine wants to report and expose a person, and this person bought Mama Cao behind his back, so Princess Shengping was sick."

The concubine's voice was sonorous and powerful, and as soon as the words fell into the hall, there was an uproar.

Li Shenlan sat up straight in an instant, staring at her concubine with her eyes, and motioned for her to continue.

And Wang Jun'er, who was sitting behind Li Shenlan, had already clenched the wine glass tightly at this time, as if the glass was about to be crushed in the next second.

It's not that Wang Jun'er hasn't designed a concubine, but every time she can seemingly inadvertently turn danger into a disaster. Even the assassination time, it was clear that she was already a master who spent a lot of money to buy, but she was easily escaped by her concubine.

It was this assassination that made Wang Jun'er realize that there was someone behind the concubine, and this person's snobbery was only unusual.

Without waiting for Wang Jun'er to think about it more, the next sentence of the concubine smashed on the top of her head like a **.

"This person is the master of the Listening Bamboo Palace, Wang Jieyu!"

Li Shenlan had long suspected that Wang Jun'er had done it, but now she was told by her concubines in public. Where did she still sit, she immediately got up and looked back at Wang Jun'er angrily, trying to see any clue from her expression.

But when I turned around, I saw that Wang Yun'er still looked like she didn't care about herself, sitting there calmly, as if Wang Jieyu in her concubine's mouth was not her at all.

"Wang Jieyu, the matter is about you, you have to get up and say a few words!"

Li Shenlan almost gritted her teeth and said this, but Wang Jun'er chuckled, and then calmly drank a glass of wine, and then stood up and walked to the middle of the hall.

"The concubine has to have evidence when she speaks, and there is no evidence for her words, how can you just splash dirty water on this palace?"

Li Shenlan had never seen Wang Jun'er confronting the Shen family at the beginning, so seeing her like this for the first time at this moment only made her feel extremely strange.

In the main hall, Yin Chen's good mood was no longer at the moment, and he looked at Wang Jun'er with a dark face. And the queen has this anger in her eyes, they have not been able to find evidence of Wang Jun'er, but they only hope that what the concubine said this time is true, so that she can vent her evil anger for Sheng Ping.

Look at the Queen Mother again, it's funny, who in this palace doesn't know that Wang Jun'er is her Queen Mother? But now that Wang Jun'er has an accident, she is still sitting there calmly, as if everything is a play, and she is just a theater watcher.

The concubine didn't want to say much to Wang Jun'er, she was closest to Wang Jun'er, and she could see Wang Jun'er's calm skin under her slightly panicked eyes.

The corners of her mouth hooked slightly, and the concubine raised her hand and patted it lightly three times as agreed with the contact.

Ying Sheng walked into a family of three dressed as civilians, and as soon as the man led by appeared, Wang Jun'er, who was already strong and calm, panicked.

"The grass people's family see the queen mother, the queen mother."

Yin Chen didn't get up, but asked who he was? Why?

"The grass people are cheap Mengshan, they are the youngest son of Mama Cao, this is the ...... of the young son and the young son"

On the other hand, after getting the accurate news of the start of the banquet, the eldest princess and King Cheng changed into light clothes and hurriedly entered the Shoukang Palace.

Because of the presence of the king, everything is much easier. He was able to take Yin Jingya to fall from the roof to the Queen Mother's bedroom without any mistakes.

With the previous experience, Yin Jingya opened the door of the secret room this time.

"Hey, this old lady will enjoy it and make a bed in there."

King Cheng didn't know what was going on, and now he was unusually excited and talked a lot.

"You're not in the same way you used to be." Yin Jingya said angrily.

"I was glad to think that I was about to overthrow him."

Yin Jingya snorted coldly and didn't speak again, and only dodged in after reaching the third hole to make sure that there was no mechanism at the door.

The secret passage is extremely narrow, and Yin Jingya and King Cheng can only walk in a column one after the other. There wasn't even a little light around, and they couldn't see anything except the candles they had brought.

Walking further in, the two sides finally became wider, and just as the two were about to stand side by side, Yin Jingya suddenly stood motionless.

"What's wrong?"

Yin Jingya looked down at her feet and said coldly

"Stepped on."
