On the day Xu Concubine entered the Zichen Palace, I looked at the jade pendant really well, and I looked at it a few more times and found the clue. Beitang Jinyu knew, but he never said it, but it was because he understood that no matter whether he said it or not, Xu Hanyun couldn't escape such an ending.

In the harem, isn't that the case?

"Your Majesty......" Xiao Ruyan was so nervous that she almost knocked over the teacup, she hurriedly bent her knees and saluted to Beitang Jinyu and said, "Concubine...... The matter of the jade pendant ......"

"No more." Beitang Jinyu's face sank, and he didn't have the feeling of wanting to hear her explanation, he said: "Concubine Xiao, I will not pursue the matter of Concubine Xu again, whether it is you or Concubine Zhen, if there is any incident in the future, I will expel all of you from the palace." ”

Beitang Jinyu got up as he spoke, and when he walked to the bead curtain, he paused, and said: "Concubine Xu is your hand after all, so all her future affairs will be handed over to you, and you will be treated as atoning for her sins." ”

Beitang Jinyu's figure quickly left, and the moment he walked through the palace gate, he gently stroked the plague antidote in his sleeve, and Gao Yuhu smiled in his mind, and he already had the answer in his heart.

Xiao Ruyan sat on the ground and felt a faint chill all over her body, it turned out that after so many days, she had already known that the emperor was an outsider from beginning to end, and watched them fight with cold eyes.

The palace maid saw Xiao Ruyan sitting on the ground, and hurriedly went over to help her and said, "Niangniang, it's cold on the ground, why are you sitting on the ground?" ”

"Why?" Xiao Ruyan slowly got up and sat aside: "The emperor knew about the situation laid out by the palace early, but he didn't break it

is waiting for today, to give this palace a warning. Her hands are still a little shaky, if the emperor investigates it today, it is not surprising that he will directly abolish her, so should she be happy?

This night, Xiao Ruyan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and she still had fear in her heart.

On the second day, the news of Concubine Xu's death spread throughout the harem, some people gloated and some sighed, but in one day, Xu Hanyun changed from a favorite concubine to an abandoned concubine, and finally died lonely in Qingyue Palace.

Xiao Ruyan was ordered to handle Xu Hanyun's funeral, she looked haggard and pale, and everyone in the harem thought that she was sad because of the loss of her right-hand man, only she understood that she was afraid.

Concubine Zhen knew about Concubine Xu's death very clearly, but she couldn't even smile at all, but felt uneasy.

Because of the matter of Concubine Xu, the emperor has never stepped into the harem for half a step.

"Niangniang, everyone in the palace said that Concubine Xu committed suicide last night, and no one suspected that we were in the Moon Palace." In the pavilion, the palace maid whispered while adding tea to the catkins.

"So what?" Concubine Zhen said with a little disdain: "The emperor still has affection for her after all, and the funeral of an uncanonized concubine is also so important." ”

"Niangniang, no matter how rampant Concubine Xu was in the past, now she is also a dead person, Niangniang doesn't have to worry." The palace maid comforted.

Liu Wu'er took a sip of tea slowly, always feeling that something was wrong.

"Gao Wei Lake, come here." Liu Yingjiang had been sitting in the courtyard reading a book, and suddenly called out to Gao Weihu.

"Huh?" Gao Weihu walked up to him with some doubts, Liu Yingjiang laughed, handed him the empty teacup and said, "Refill the tea." ”

Gao Weihu was a little helpless, took the teacup in his hand and licked a cup of tea for him, and said, "You have made up all the kung fu you asked me to come over, really." ”

Liu Yingjiang took a sip of tea and smiled with a smile on his eyebrows, but he didn't explain anything.

Gao Weihu didn't bother him when he saw him looking at medical skills, so he sat quietly on the side, and Le Yao was very uncomfortable when he saw this scene not far away.

Gu Yanran and Murong Tian had already walked out of the villa at this moment, and many people looked at them along the way, all talking about the marriage between them.

"Yanran, in a few days, there will be Jiangnan embroidered silk sent, when the time comes, you choose it, I will let people use it to make a wedding dress." Murong Tian said with a smile, it seemed that he didn't have any worries about all kinds of things before, Gu Yanran responded lightly, and his interest was not high.

"Yanran, I opened a pond behind our attic in Chaotian Pavilion, and planted the lotus you like in the future, and every summer, you can also see the lotus there." Murong Tiandao stretched out her hand to hold Gu Yanran's hand, Gu Yanran originally wanted to resist, but she was afraid of angering Murong Tian, so she could only obey.

"Hmm." Gu Yanran nodded and asked her, "How far is it from the villa to Chaotian Pavilion?" ”

"It's not very far, about twenty minutes by car." Murong Tiandao looked at Gu Yanran sideways, and saw that there was not much emotion on her soft and pure face.

Gu Yanran nodded, but didn't say anything anymore, and the two walked towards the outside of Qianshui Town together.

The lake was outside Qianshui Town, and a large number of lotus flowers could be seen blooming in the water from a distance, Gu Yanran had a little smile in her eyebrows, and sighed: "This lotus flower is really blooming well." ”

The two walked on the small bridge on the lake, Gu Yanran stood on the railing, looking at the lotus flower in front of her, and there was a rare smile in her eyes.

"Murong Tian, do you know why I like lotus?" Gu Yanran said, her eyes were a little dazed, Murong Tian's hand hidden in her sleeve was clenched into a fist, and her expression was still gentle: "Why?" ”

"Then do you know that three years ago, I was greedy for fun, and I fell off a cliff for a while." Gu Yanran looked at him, Murong Tian nodded and said, "Remember, at that time, your father and I were in a hurry, and we sent someone to look for you for a few days, and you still found it yourself." ”

"I was able to go back because someone saved me, do you know who the person who saved me was?" Gu Yanran had memories in her eyes, and Murong Tian asked in a deep voice, "That person...... Is it Liu Yingjiang? ”

Gu Yanran nodded and said, "Yes, that person is Liu Yingjiang, he saved me three years ago, so I ...... Remember her. ”

She looked at Murong Tiandao calmly: "He is my savior, he was and will always be." ”

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to him." Murong Tianyin held back his emotions and said.

Gu Yanran smiled at him and said, "Thank you."

。 ”

In the past, she would put away all the thoughts she had about Liu Yingjiang, little by little, even if she couldn't be by his side, she would protect him in other ways.

Murong Tian's clenched fist loosened, and he also raised his lips and smiled, it was rare for the two of them to be so harmonious.

When it was late, Murong Tian sent Gu Yanran back to the villa, he wanted to go back to Chaotian Pavilion to deal with some things, and when he arrived at Chaotian Pavilion, he felt a change in his body, he hurriedly entered the house, and sure enough, he saw a black-robed person in the house.

"You're here." The black-robed man saw Murong Tian push the door into the house, and said in a low voice.

Murong Tian looked out the window with vigilant eyes, making sure that no one outside the house was reassured, and asked, "What does Your Highness command?" ”

"Do as it says." The black-robed man handed a note to Murong Tian, he took it and looked at it, his eyes showed a little surprise: "Your Highness, this ......"

"She is the abolished queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you haven't noticed it at all in the villa for so many days, it's really stupid." The black-robed man's voice became a little deeper, which only made people feel very gloomy.

"I'll do it." Murong Tian lit a candle and extinguished the note from the lamp, which quickly turned into ashes.

The figure of the black-robed man quickly disappeared into the room, and there was contemplation in Murong Tian's eyes, and finally a little ruthlessness flashed.

Le Yao was also awakened by the movement here, she opened the door and found that there were more than a dozen people in black in the courtyard, and those people in black also found Le Yao, and swung their swords straight at her, Le Yao picked up the long sword on the side and went up to meet her, looking at the courtyard of Gaowei Lake with some worried eyes.

Liu Yingjiang quickly solved the man in black, turned to look at Gao Weihu and said, "Gao Weihu, you stay in the house and don't come out." ”

Saying that, he went out to fight with those black-clothed people, and with Liu Yingjiang's addition, those black-clothed people would be easier to deal with, but he thought that Gao Weihu was always a little uneasy in the house alone, so he guarded the door and didn't let anyone in.

"Brother Liu, be careful." Le Yao saw a man in black slashing towards Liu Yingjiang's back, there was anxiety in his eyes, Liu Yingjiang dodged sideways but was still stabbed in the shoulder by the man in black, he frowned and swung his sword more and more sharply.

When Le Yao saw that he was injured, he immediately walked to his side to kill the enemy with him, but heard Liu Yingjiang say: "Le Yao, you go into the house, I can do it myself." ”

"No, there are too many assassins, I'm with you." Le Yao looked reluctant, since he was so determined to protect Gaowei Lake, then she guarded him.

Liu Yingjiang blocked a sword for Le Yao, and glanced at a man in black who wanted to enter through the window, he hurriedly blocked it, and said to Le Yao: "Le Yao, go quickly." ”

"No, you're all injured, and if I leave, you won't be able to deal with it alone." Le Yao clenched the sword in her hand, with a little anxiety, she was worried about Liu Yingjiang's injury, she didn't notice the assassin rushing on the side, she couldn't dodge, there was a little panic in her eyes, just when she thought she couldn't dodge, Liu Yingjiang appeared in front of her, blocked the sword for her, he stabbed the man in black with a backhand, raised his voice a little and said: "Le Yao, come into the house." ”

Le Yao saw that his injuries were getting worse and worse and didn't want to leave, but thinking that she was dragging him down, she still turned around and went into the house, Gao Weihu sat on the edge of the bed and stretched out her hand to cover the wound, blood kept gushing out from her fingers, and her face was pale and weak.

"Sister Gao Weihu, what's wrong with you?" Le Yao hurriedly walked to Gao Weihu to look, Gao Weihu shook his head: "It's okay, what's going on outside?" ”

"Brother Liu is outside." Le Yao was very worried, Gao Weihu saw so many black-clothed people outside the window, and said uneasily: "No, we have to think of a way." ”

Suddenly, a figure flashed outside the window, Le Yao immediately pulled out his sword but saw that the figure passed quickly, just when the two were puzzled, suddenly there was a fire flashing by the window, Gao Weihu secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good to get up and go to the window to look, Liu Yingjiang and the man in black were fighting at the gate of the courtyard, yes

Surrounded by clusters, there was already a fire outside the window, and there was a thick smell of smoke.

Gao Weihu was choked by the smell of smoke, Le Yao hugged Gao Weihu and said, "Sister Gaoweihu, what should we do?" The house was on fire......"

"We're going to get out first." Gao Weihu frowned, and walked towards the door with Le Yao, but when they reached the door, they saw Cong Cong Firelight rushing over, sealing the exit, and the two had to retreat into the house.
