People who have a city government are good at doing two things.

Cover up your true purpose, cover up your true self.

No matter what kind of face they show to others at the moment, eventually this layer of skin will be torn.

By the time they expose their true selves for the sake of their goals, things are often out of control.

Therefore, to get along with such a person, you must have a pair of discerning eyes, see through his surface, and see his heart in order to become the middle.

In this regard, Ling Tiancheng and Ye Yuanpei are obviously more expert, perhaps because they themselves are also people with city governments, and their personalities are too similar, so they can smell the danger of each other's bodies at once.

And Bai Heng's performance is a bit silly and sweet.

Not only did he not see Qiu Gang clearly, but he also thought that he was a good person, and he was good to himself, and even betrayed his own family by his bewitchment.

Zhuang Siyan wrinkled his brows and thought, "What a tricky person." ”

But anyone, no matter how powerful he is, will always have shortcomings, and there will always be something to attack.

Ling Tiancheng and Ye Yuanpei, neither of them are vegetarians, they have been stationed here, training day and night, but they say that they are not sure of victory, and they may even be defeated.

Does this have to be true?

She moved her gaze to Ye Yuanpei's face.

There was a calm, and there was no trace of anything from above, but it was precisely because of this calmness that Zhuang Siyan had some considerations.

She didn't ask any more, said goodbye to Ye Yuanpei, and came down from Xunma Mountain.

Because it was not early, I didn't even go to the detective agency, and went back to the palace directly.

Li Hua had already started to eat dinner at this time, and when she saw her returning, she hurriedly stood up and said, "They said you won't go back, so I ......"

"It's okay, I couldn't say it back, but I didn't worry about you, so I came back first." Zhuang Siyan took off his coat, washed his face with the water brought by the palace maid, and then sat down at the table: "I've been running outside for a day, and I'm really hungry." ”

The two didn't say anything more, and An Ansheng ate a meal first.

When she went out for a walk to eat, Zhuang Siyan said to her, "I'm going to see the general today." ”

Li Hua let out a "hmm" and didn't say much about it.

Zhuang Siyan said: "He has been telling me to take good care of you, and he will come to the palace to see you in two days, I came back in a hurry today, and I didn't even bring the game he prepared, and when he came, he would personally send you." ”

Li Hua lowered her head and smiled lightly, and said softly: "The left and right are just chickens and rabbits in the mountains, we can eat them in the palace, and we don't need him to be busy." ”

She was so gentle now that she couldn't find a trace of the barbarism of the past.

Zhuang Siyan looked at her quiet face, and always had to try to pull herself back to the past, so that she could remember her efforts to chase Ye Yuanpei at the beginning.

It's really worth it, I pursued the person I liked, and now I enjoy it in that person's love.

Inexplicably, Zhuang Siyan was a little envious of them.

From Li Hua, it is not difficult to find that her relationship with Ye Yuanpei is easier than that between herself and Ling Tiancheng.

I don't know if it's because Ling Tiancheng is the emperor, even if he is condescending, it always makes people feel less comfortable.

Unlike real couples, they can talk unscrupulously and amuse each other.

Besides, I can't really be funny in this palace, there are always people watching when I talk and do things, anyway, even if Zhuang Siyan is fat or joking, he doesn't dare to scold him.

Ling Tiancheng might not say anything, but those eunuchs and palace maids listened to it, and they didn't know what they would think?

The Lingshuang Pavilion is very large, and now it is almost summer, so the flowers raised before are already full, and they have a sweet taste in the air.

They walked from one road to another, stepping on the bluestone pavement under their feet, walking silently, each thinking about their own thoughts.

After walking in a circle, my mood is a little better.

Li Hua wants to go back to rest, Zhuang Siyan is tired for a day, and she also wants to wash and sleep early, she doesn't have much to do tomorrow, she has to discuss with Ling Tiancheng.

But before the two of them walked back to the main hall, a palace maid came to spread the word, saying that Concubine Yi was outside asking to see her.

In the early spring, Concubine Yi frantically hinted that she wanted to go out of the palace, but there was no suitable opportunity at that time.

Zhuang Siyan still left her hope, saying that if there is a chance in the future, he will definitely let her out.

It was also from that time that Concubine Yi became closer to her.

In fact, Zhuang Siyan didn't care too much about this kind of harem relationship, she is now in the back position, even if she didn't promise anything, probably someone took the initiative to show her goodwill.

Ling Tiancheng's harem is more special, there are only a few people in total, and they are all unfavored, there is no jealousy, people slowly calm down.

Like Concubine Zhen, she just comes to visit every New Year's festival and gives some small gifts made by herself, not against Zhuang Siyan.

And Concubine Yi didn't associate with her before.

But Concubine Yi is different from Concubine Zhen, she is also related to the war in the northern Xinjiang.

Although Zhuang Siyan knew that with Concubine Yi's current strength, Qiu Gang would not give her anything important to do, and he would not even tell her important words, at most he would only instruct her to do something, but it was better to know their movements than not to know.

She asked Ping'er to take care of Li Hua back at the moment, and went to the palace gate to greet Concubine Yi in person.

Naturally, there is something.

It was getting late, and Concubine Yi should not stay here, so she didn't even enter inside, and the two of them stood at the gate of the palace, making a long story short.

"My brother sent a message over there, asking me to find a way to make some trouble in the palace." She said.

Zhuang Siyan asked her: "What is the trouble, how to make trouble, to what extent, did he say what the purpose is?" ”

Concubine Yi shook her head, and only spoke again after a while: "I just said that if I want to attract the emperor's attention, it is best to let the emperor come to my palace." ”

Zhuang Siyan turned his head to look at her.

With Concubine Yi's ability and her current situation, even if Ling Tiancheng really went to her palace Chen, she wouldn't be able to do anything?

Then why did she let Ling Tiancheng go?

Could it be that there is anyone in her palace who is with Qiu Gang?

She quickly agreed with her own idea, it must be like this, there is not only Qiu Gang's person in this palace, but there is not only one, otherwise how did his letter come in?

Zhuang Siyan asked Concubine Yi: "How did he send a message to you, has anyone else seen this letter except you?" Did anyone else else see you come to me? ”

She listened less and thought more, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she had a series of questions, and she didn't know where to go back when she asked Concubine Yi.

Zhuang Siyan looked left and right.

At the gate of the palace, because of them talking, the eunuchs guarding there automatically retreated, and in their position at the moment, they could only vaguely see the palace maids in front of the room in the distance, walking around, they should be busy bathing Ling Tiantian and taking care of him to sleep.

There are palace lights shining outside the palace gate, and they can't see anyone, but because there is a wall, if someone is really hiding there, it is not easy for them to find out.

Zhuang Siyan thought for a while and said, "Go in and talk!" ”

Concubine Yi stood there and hesitated, her eyes involuntarily glancing inside.

A very small movement, and the time was also very fast, making people feel that she was just looking up casually, and then followed Zhuang Siyan really walked inside.

Zhuang Siyan walked forward side by side with her, but the afterglow in his eyes kept looking at her.

Concubine Yi just now, she saw it clearly, obviously taboo, she should not want to go in, or worried about being seen by someone, but she didn't want to arouse Zhuang Siyan's suspicion, so she agreed again.

Is there a problem with the people of the Ling Frost Pavilion?

Concubine Yi walked very slowly, her eyes stayed not far in front of her toes, she didn't look up, she didn't look at Zhuang Siyan, as if she was thinking about something.

According to Zhuang Siyan's usual personality, she walks relatively fast, usually she walks with people, but at this time she also slowed down, even slower than Concubine Yi, half a step behind her, looking at her quietly.

From the gate of the palace to her main hall, it was not a long distance, but the two of them walked a lot of time.

As soon as I entered, the palace maid was busy coming over and serving tea first.

Zhuang Siyan picked up the teacup first, motioned to Concubine Yi to use it too, and after taking a shallow sip, she said again: "There is no one else here, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Concubine Yi glanced at the door.

Zhuang Siyan didn't look there, he kept staring at Concubine Yi's eyes and face.

She said: "Someone sent a message in, not from the palace, but from my mother's house. ”

She paused for a moment before she continued: "My brother's letter has always been passed to my mother's house, and then they passed it to me.

This letter was given to me by her in private, and no one saw it.

But I think this letter came a little strangely, and my mother didn't say what it was, so I discussed it with the queen. ”

Zhuang Siyan nodded, and followed her words: "It's very strange." ”

Then she asked, "Then does your mother's family know about your situation in the palace?" ”

Concubine Yi lowered her head.

Naturally, she knows that she has been in the palace for so long, she is not favored, and she has no heirs, which is a well-known thing.

Moreover, Ling Tiancheng favored Zhuang Siyan alone, which was also something that the whole person knew about the Dasheng Dynasty, so her mother's family would let her trick Ling Tiancheng into her palace once no matter what.

If she's really favored, then it's not about making trouble or deceiving her.

Although they are all women, it is still very embarrassing to say it, so Concubine Yi only nodded and did not reply directly to this question.

Zhuang Siyan's thoughts were not in these things, she was wondering if Concubine Yi's mother could enter and leave the palace freely?

Although there are only three or two kittens in the palace, she is also very loose, she didn't want these concubines to suffer too much because of some things before, and she intended to let them contact some people outside.

But that's only if they go out.

For example, Concubine Yi and Concubine Zhen want to leave the palace and go back to their mother's house, then she agrees, even if they don't want to come in when they go out, then Zhuang Siyan has no opinion.

But it is not so easy for people outside to enter the palace, after all, Zhuang Siyan is not the only one here, there is also Ling Tiancheng, and there is also the prince, they all need to be safe.

Thinking about it like this, I felt that Concubine Yi was too weird tonight.

She withdrew her gaze and took a closer look at Concubine Yi's body.

The clothes are new, the shoes are new, the hair is neatly combed, and the gold hairpins and jade ornaments are worn on them.

Although she is usually dressed up in the palace, she has Zhuang Siyan, and she is relatively low-key.

And she was in a hurry to come over tonight, which shouldn't be like this, except for the first moment when she looked a little panicked, no matter how she looked at it at this moment, it seemed to be carefully prepared.
