In fact, he couldn't complain about Xiao Yao, and he had a lot of worries. It was really last time that Yan Rongling did not hesitate to collude with the Liao people to harm his own life, which shocked Xiao Yao too much.

So Xiao Yao didn't know what kind of shocking thing Yan Rongling would do if he appeared in the bright light?

In the past, Yan Rongling was just the crown prince, and there were also the emperor and the queen mother above. He dared to do so many daring and rebellious things.

And now he has ascended the throne as the emperor, and he is the only one in the world. Now he can still respect Gu Fanghua and did not force her to enter the palace.

In case his appearance breaks this balance, but makes him have to enter the palace, wouldn't this be worth the loss?

If he really appeared in front of him, no one could have predicted what kind of things he would do.

After thinking about it, Xiao Yao still pressed the thoughts in his heart and found a place to lurk near the Hou Mansion. I hope I can sneak in smoothly tomorrow, even if I just wait to see it from a distance, Mingzhu and the child.

On August 15, a night banquet was held in the palace, and all the families above the third grade in the capital, as well as the nobles and clansmen, entered the palace to participate in the night banquet.

This is also the first time that Yan Rongling has held a large-scale banquet in the palace after he ascended the throne as the emperor, so in order to show his face, the scene is very grand.

For the safety of the palace, even the five hundred royal forest soldiers guarding the Hou Mansion recruited four hundred people to come back to help.

In this way, even if these 100 people crossed patrols, in the end, Xiao Yao still found some blind spots and loopholes in defense.

Xiao Yao sneaked into the Hou Mansion smoothly, avoided several groups of patrols, and slowly approached the main courtyard.

Unexpectedly, outside the main courtyard, Yan Rongling actually sent many masters to hide everywhere. Fortunately, Xiao Yao was cautious, and every time he entered and left the yard, he would stop and observe clearly, otherwise he would have been caught in the urn if he went in rashly.

Xiao Yao hid under the beam of the house and hid for nearly two hours, but he couldn't find a little place to break through.

Through the high walls, listen to the laughter inside. Xiao Yao's heart, no matter how strong his willpower is, he can't help but have impulsive thoughts.

Just when Xiao Yao couldn't help it and wanted to break in, a girl came out of the main courtyard.

Xiao Yao fixed his eyes and saw that it was Mo Lan, who was very important by Gu Fanghua's side. I saw her walk out of the main courtyard, and did not go out of the second door, but walked along the alley wall, as if she was going to the back cover room.

If Mo Lan can give Mingzhu some news, the husband and wife will meet quietly. Then discuss the specific method, this is the best way out that Xiao Yao can think of at present.

Xiao Yao moved his mind, followed behind Mo Lan from a distance, and sure enough, he arrived at the back room.

Seeing her walk into a row of low houses, Xiao Yao felt strange in his heart. As the big maid beside Mingzhu, how could she come to this place where the inferior servant woman lives?

Could it be that she went to some servant woman, or some maid to tell her something?

Xiao Yao saw that there was no one around, sneaked over quietly, hid in the bamboo forest outside the small window, and watched the situation in the house through the bamboo leaves.

Mo Lan's voice came out: "Lord Hui, the princess doesn't know the news that Marquis Xiao has returned to Beijing. ”

"You must be strict and do not let anyone reveal this news to the princess. If anyone wants to tell the princess, you will be killed. ”

Xiao Yao's heart was cold, and he looked through the small window with a window screen. The person standing opposite Mo Lan was actually Aunt Xia Chun.

I didn't expect Yan Rongling to really have the means, and he could turn Xia Chun next to the Queen Mother and Mo Lan next to Mingzhu into his fine works.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yao was shocked into a cold sweat, if he showed up rashly, he would kill himself.

But with these people by Mingzhu's side, wouldn't Mingzhu's every move be under Yan Rongling's surveillance? If he has any bad intentions, then Mingzhu is defenseless and will definitely be hit.

Xiao Yao thought of this and decided to remind Mingzhu. Otherwise, not only Mingzhu, but also their son Xiao Ziyuan, will also be in danger at any time.

Waiting, Xiao Yao waited until the third watch in the middle of the night, when the moon was in the sky.

Taking advantage of the night shift of the Underbody, he spotted a lone Underbody, knocked him unconscious and cut his throat, and quietly pushed into the pool.

Then he changed into his clothes, and only a pair of eyes were exposed all over his body, and then pretended to patrol the wall, but waited for an opportunity to sneak into the main courtyard.

Although Xiao Yao did not live in the Hou Mansion for a long time, the bits and pieces of the three days of the wedding often lingered in his dreams. I am very familiar with everything in the main courtyard, and I don't feel unfamiliar at all.

He is accustomed to Mingzhu's habit, and after bathing at night, he likes to open the window of the clean room for ventilation.

So sneaking in from the window of the clean room, not far from the screen, is where Mingzhu and himself slept in when they were newly married.

The bedroom was quiet, and two breathing sounds, one deep and one shallow, came into Xiao Yao's ears.

Xiao Yao came to the side of the Luohan couch first and ordered Zimei's acupoint to make her sleep more deeply. Then he tried to suppress it, like a beating heartbeat, and moved to the front of the Qiangong bed step by step.

With trembling hands, he lifted half of the bead tent slightly. In the bright moonlight, Xiao Yao looked at the pearl, the hibiscus face exposed outside the silkworm quilt, and his heart was very excited.

All kinds of husband and wife love in the past seem to be just yesterday.

And now that heaven and man are almost separated forever, Xiao Yao feels like a knife just thinking about Mingzhu's mood.

The hand moved with his heart, Xiao Yao's hand slowly lifted up and stroked Mingzhu's cheek. Just as Xiao Yao was about to touch Mingzhu's cheek, Gu Fanghua suddenly opened his eyes.

Gu Fanghua's big eyes, which were originally black and white, are now shining even brighter in the dark.

Like the glass eyes that have been washed with water, the surprise that bursts out is clearly visible. She probably thought it was in a dream, and said coquettishly: "Why did you fall asleep tonight and come so late?" ”

Xiao Yao's heart fluttered and he was about to answer, but there was a sound from outside, and Sanqi pushed the door in.

Because it was not clear whether Sanqi would be bought by Yan Rongling, Xiao Yao quickly hid in the beam. Like a gecko, the person hiding underneath, a place where the perspective cannot be seen.

Sanqi stepped forward quickly, opened the tent and saw Gu Fanghua with his eyes open, and Mu Ran looked at the picture of the cross-necked mandarin duck on the top of the bed.

Said gently: "Princess, what's wrong with you?" Want to drink water? Why did Zimei sleep so deeply? Don't come to serve? ”

"Don't bother her, I can't sleep tonight, so let her light some soothing incense. It may be that I used too much and it didn't work, and she used less, so she slept deeply. ”

Gu Fanghua's tone was a little heavy, revealing a world-weary mood.

Sanqi smiled and said: "Princess, this soothing incense, it's better to use less, and it is inevitable to rely on it if you use it too much." If you don't have a good rest at night, you won't have the energy to play with Xiao Shizi tomorrow. ”

"Also, for the sake of the child, I will also cut off this soothing incense."
