Twenty-five, midnight terror
"Well, I know what you think."
This mindless sentence made Pei Zhenwan suspicious, and she was wondering what this meant for a while, could it be that he knew that he knew martial arts, and what did he deduce?
But listening to Feng Lan's next words, it made people laugh: "In the inner court of this Chen Palace, a general of the forbidden army and a noble concubine and maidservant took advantage of the night to have a private meeting near the Yeting Palace, this kind of rumor, I am afraid that it can skin people in the palace." ”
Pei Zhenwan thought several times that she had misheard, how could this be related to the word private meeting, and the goodwill accumulated by this party immediately dissipated. His mouth opened, but he couldn't dismiss it because of his identity, so he gritted his teeth, saluted and retreated, and turned around to leave quickly.
Feng Lan didn't stop her, but only raised her voice behind her and said, "Miss Pei, I remember you." ”
Pei Zhenwan didn't stop, she just walked briskly, and in a moment, she went around the boundary outside the Yeting Palace and hurried towards the Penglai Palace.
Today should be an eventful autumn, if you know that there will be such an incident as dusk, you should not go to Fuxi Pavilion for Xiuyun, or you should not go to Liushang to see Cheng Zhilan today, if you change the time, I am afraid that there will be no such trivial and troublesome things behind.
When she was about to walk to the Penglai Palace, Pei Zhenwan stopped, looked at the palace guards standing outside the jade steps of the palace in the distance, sank her heart, and cleaned up the troubles in her heart. There are mistakes today, and she should withdraw from these distractions and deal with them calmly.
This Feng Lan, in the end, she still has to check, these days, she needs to arrange it, this Feng Lan's behavior, Zuo Qianniuwei's security guard in the Chen Palace, and who he is familiar with in the palace, etc., one by one, to confirm that there is nothing wrong, so that she can rest assured.
Pei Zhenwan breathed a sigh of relief, adjusted herself to her previous tranquil state, glanced at the moon hanging in the sky, and returned to Penglai Hall before the lock.
At this time, it is already nightfalling, half a bright moon hangs in the sky, and a few flickering unknown starlight, clear and cold, the moonlight is a little white, tilting to the ground, reflecting the Chen Palace with blue bricks and tops, it is even more solemn, under this quiet and cold night sky, it seems to be a deep undercurrent surging.
Sure enough, at the end of the day, the palace had been asleep, and a series of eager running sounds shuttled between the palace rooms, and the palace people had always slept lightly, and when they heard this, they almost all sat up from the bed. Chen Palace's palace rules are strict, if it is not a major event, it will not be so rude.
A quarter of an hour later, the sound began to sound everywhere in the Chen Palace, the Zichen Hall where Emperor Chen stayed, the Zhengde Palace where the queen lived, and the direction of the six Shangshang, there were people in and out, and this noise was especially prominent in the quiet night.
Wei Guifei put on her middle clothes, supported by Amber and Liuli, leaned against the door of the dormitory and waited for someone to reply, Pei Zhenwan and Wan Xiuyun hurriedly pulled off their coats and put them on, and stood under the porch and waited quietly.
The eunuch on duty at the palace gate ran in a smoke, knelt on the ground and gasped and replied: "Yu Niangniang, it was said that the Zhang Cai people of Yuxiang Palace had launched, and now they are busy dealing with it everywhere." ”
Wei Man's face was puzzled: "Didn't you say that there are still ten days, and the day is fine, how can you suddenly give birth now." ”
The eunuch knelt on the ground, and when he replied to this, he could only gasp, and his face was red with anxiety.
Amber hurriedly said: "Niangniang asked him if he was afraid, but after all, the situation over there in Yuxiang Palace is still there, and I have to listen again to find out." ”
Wei Guifei nodded, tightened her middle coat and asked, "Has Your Majesty gone?" ”
"Your Majesty didn't get up," the little eunuch replied with his head bowed, "I heard that Your Majesty just passed on the message, and the Imperial Doctor Bureau is waiting for you." But the queen's mother is preparing for it. ”
Wei Guifei answered, and no longer asked, and the eunuch hurriedly kowtowed and retreated outside.
The queen's old woman reacted quickly. Wei Guifei thought gloomily, there was just some restlessness in this palace, and she was busy getting up to investigate, this action was inevitably too fast, didn't Queen Xu already know? Wei Guifei was a little uncertain for a while, she was previously told to approach Yuxiang Palace cautiously, so as not to cause trouble, but now that the little prince is about to be born, the queen went to the scene in such a hurry, and she is not there, isn't she passive?
Thinking about this, he caught a glimpse of Pei Zhenwan standing under the corridor, so he summoned his hand and called him closer.
"Zhenwan, should you go to Yuxiang Palace now?"
"Dare to ask Niangniang if she is worried that Zhang Cairen is going to give birth ahead of schedule, and it has something to do with the queen's mother?"
Wei Guifei didn't think about it: "Shouldn't you be worried about this?" ”
Pei Zhenwan replied lightly: "Since the farce of Shen Xiangji, Zhang Cairen has almost closed the door, and Queen Xu has not been able to see anyone after going several times. Now Yuxiang Palace is surrounded like an iron bucket, and Niangniang has been sending people to keep an eye on it. Does the queen have a chance to start, Niangniang doesn't know in her heart? ”
Wei Guifei was a little embarrassed for a while, secretly glared at Amber, and said embarrassedly: "This palace has only asked a few times, and it is not that I have not listened to your opinion." She naturally knew that Pei Zhenwan had told her not to go to Yuxiang Palace to make any moves before the little prince was born, but she couldn't help it, and she even let Pei Zhenwan notice it.
"May I ask Niangniang," Pei Zhenwan raised her head and looked straight at the bottom of Concubine Wei's heart, "The harem concubine gave birth, and the queen should go to take care of it." Niangniang now has no right to assist in the six palaces, so she hurried away, did she want to show her thoughts? ”
Wei Guifei's chaotic thoughts gradually became clear under her urgency, and she actually forgot that with her own identity, she couldn't go like this: "What you said is reasonable, but this incident happened suddenly, is there really no clue?" ”
Pei Zhenwan slowly climbed the steps, and together with Wan Xiuyun, who had been following silently with her head down, behind her, she led Concubine Wei Guifei into the hall to take a seat first. Amber and Liuli took a cloak to surround Wei Guifei, and made tea, and a few people analyzed it carefully.
"Zhang Cairen came to give birth ahead of schedule, maybe it was really an accident. Niangniang thought about it, how many people in the palace didn't want the little prince to be born and had the ability to do something. Now Niangniang is secretly taking care of Yuxiang Palace, the queen is the first one Zhang Cairen to watch out for, Concubine Liu Xian is a heartless person, and the people in her hands have also been pointed out by Niangniang in recent years, whether she has the ability to do it or not, Niangniang is also clear. Song Zhaoyi has three princes, but she can't get out of bed now, Tang Xiurong is a person from Niangniang's side, so she won't be able to do anything. Niangniang thinks that it will not be those Jieyu beauties who can calculate anything to the Zhang Cairen who are staring at the palace at the moment. ”
Wei Guifei listened to this long paragraph and nodded in approval. Pei Zhen said quietly again: "Second, Shen Xiang remembered an incident, killing his mother and taking his son, what a fascinating episode this is. If it is ordinary, the queen is only afraid to avoid it, and now she is driving Yuxiang Palace, which is to put herself in danger, if the mother and son have any vision, the queen jumps into the Yellow River and can't wash it away, Niangniang thought, the queen will give herself a mouth, or allow others to be at this juncture, let herself be speechless. ”
Wei Guifei pondered these words carefully, and her heart gradually cleared. Yes, the current situation, it is indeed advisable to be quiet and not to move, Yuxiang Palace this month, she is also staring at it very dead, and there is nothing abnormal, the queen's old woman rushed over, I am afraid that it will still hinder the face of her middle palace.
Thinking about it this time, the person was a little relieved: "According to what you say, you are sure that there is no obstacle over there in Yuxiang Palace?" ”
"I'm sure I don't dare, it's just that it's the people of Yuxiang Palace who go to Zichen Palace, and Your Majesty hasn't gone over, so it's not very critical to think about it."
"Well," Wei Guifei nodded, she had just fallen asleep but was woken up, and she felt a little sleepy at this moment, but she was still thinking about what she had just heard, and when she thought of a certain place, her eyes also lit up: "You just said that you can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River, isn't there a way to ...... the queen at this time?"
