This reaction was too calm, but it made Zhuang Siyan stunned for a moment, and his feet were also there, and he didn't move in for a long time.

She still has some impressions of this palace maid, her name is Xiaoxi, and she is a personal maid brought by Miao Guifei from her mother's house.

She once didn't even obey the orders of the Empress Dowager An, and only listened to Concubine Miao's words, she was a die-hard girl, and she also moved Zhuang Siyan at that time.

At this time, seeing her sitting and boiling medicine, that kind of peaceful demeanor, as if Miao Guifei was still alive and well, and she was just doing her usual work.

This kind of scene is too weird.

Is Miao Guifei still alive?

The thought passed through Zhuang Siyan's mind, like a rope, tightly wrapped there, tighter and tighter, until she admitted that it could be true.

"Who are you brewing medicine for?" Zhuang Siyan stood at the door and asked at a distance from her.

Xiao Xi didn't speak, as if she hadn't heard her words to be precise, just sitting, her eyes not taking off the medicine stove for a moment.

This seemingly soft, but actually tough attitude, stumped Zhuang Siyan for a while.

She wasn't afraid of Xiao Xi's sudden attack, but such a loyal and protective maid, at this time, suddenly made her feel an inexplicable sigh in her heart.

That explosion was actually quite serious, and the people who shot it were all people who served Miao Guifei closely, probably she was afraid that she would not be so reliable if she was separated from other people's hands.

Of course, the result of this is to let all those who are loyal to her die with her.

But now Xiaoxi has survived, which is too miraculous.

Zhuang Siyan stood at the door for a full five or six minutes before walking inside.

As I walked, I soon smelled a different smell in the firewood room.

There was a strong smell of medicine, and some of the smell of decay, like something was rotten.

The more Zhuang Siyan walked in, the stronger the smell became, until she covered her nose when she choked.

Then his eyes swept to the back of the firewood and grass, where a monster was lying.

Zhuang Siyan was only stunned for half a second, his eyes suddenly stared at the boss, and his chest was like a punch from someone, it was painful and uncomfortable, and his breathing was not smooth.

Most of the "monster's" skin was rotten, probably because it was too hot in the summer, and wearing cloth would only make it worse, so she almost only had a small piece of cloth on her body, covering some important parts.

The naked skin outside was miserable, and Zhuang Siyan felt like he was going to vomit at a glance.

Even so, Zhuang Siyan still distinguishes who she is, and perhaps the most important basis for judging is just Xiaoxi.

For this faithful servant will not do this to a second person except his master.

An Miaoer didn't even die.

It's just that living like this should be worse for her than death, right?

Zhuang Siyan withdrew from the firewood house, his steps were a little staggering, he didn't know how he got out of Jiangxue Xuan, his head was full of mush.

After returning to the Xuan Palace, Ping'er saw that her face was not good, so she brought a cup of tea.

As a result, Zhuang Siyan saw the somewhat brown black tea, and spit it out directly.

She has also been on the battlefield before, and she has killed people, what kind of blood has not been seen, but in the face of An Miaoer's current appearance, she was still greatly shocked.

Since that day, she has not gone to Jiangxue Xuan again, and she has not stepped into it.

Instead, he went to Ningshou Palace, and together with the concubines, he looked at the Empress Dowager An.

I was forty years old a year ago, but now I am sixty years old, and even my hair is a lot grayer.

She lay on the bed, looking at the palace concubines who were pretending to be in front of her, and she didn't even bother to say polite words, and followed them to act.

Until Zhuang Siyan appeared.

Empress Dowager An's eyes looked at her, and gradually deepened from indifference to a hatred with resentment.

In her shriveled lips, she suddenly squeezed out a sentence: "Concubine Wan, are you here?" ”

Zhuang Siyan's face was calm, and he looked at her without speaking.

The old palace maid who followed the Empress Dowager An invited the other concubines out, leaving only the two of them in the dormitory.

Zhuang Siyan sat down in the chair on the side of the bed, more than a meter away from the Empress Dowager An, and looked at her lukewarmly.

Empress Dowager An smiled cruelly: "Aren't you afraid that I will do something to you at this time?" ”

Zhuang Siyan shrugged his shoulders and asked her, "Does it make sense?" ”

Empress Dowager An laughed even worse: "Yes, it's meaningless, you have taken the lead ......." ”

Gong Dou's drama is really not suitable for Zhuang Siyan, and she doesn't want to compete on it, her goal from the beginning is to help Ling Tiancheng investigate some cases and earn some money out of the palace.

However, too many things wrapped her in these miscellaneous things layer by layer.

At this time, facing the Empress Dowager An, she had no pity or guilt, after all, Zhuang Siyan had not done anything to her personally.

As for the An family, it was a traitor of the Dasheng Dynasty, and everyone was punished, and she only took a share of money to do a job, at most she could be called more dedicated.

Zhuang Siyan looked at Empress Dowager An and said calmly: "Your sister is doing well in Wen Mansion, there is nothing wrong with her, so no one wants her life;

An Miaoer ......, she should be doing well, she won't be as angry and annoyed as before, and her heart will be uneasy. ”

These words annoyed the Empress Dowager An, she straightened up from the bed, stared at Zhuang Siyan with straight eyes, and her voice came from the depths of her throat, low and depressed, with some hysterical sharpness, and when the tail note was upturned, it was like an iron scraping through the cement pavement.

"Zhuang Siyan, you vicious woman, you will not die well."

This sentence seemed to exhaust all the strength of the Empress Dowager An, and after she finished speaking, she fell back to the bed with a "tom".

His face was even paler, his lips were still shaking, and his forehead was still oozing with sweat.

Zhuang Siyan waited until her breath subsided, and then whispered: "You are too excited, I came to see you, just because I was idle."

It's not to see your jokes coming, it's not to be angry that you're coming.

As for the viciousness you said, Empress Dowager An, you should touch your conscience and ask, who is vicious?

Of course, I mean, you can also have the right understanding of the word vicious. ”

Empress Dowager An ignored her, half-sideways and glared at her.

Zhuang Siyan knew that what she said was in vain.

Some people are like this, they will get into their own ideas and can't extricate themselves, everything that goes against them is bad, and only those who follow themselves are right.

Zhuang Siyan and Empress Dowager An have never had enmity, but Empress Dowager An didn't like her from the beginning.

This has nothing to do with whether she is a Zhuang Cairen or Concubine Wan, she is the kind of person she doesn't like when she sees it, and as for the matter of settling down later, it just aggravates these dislikes.

From another point of view, in fact, Zhuang Siyan's understanding of the Empress Dowager An is also very vague.

Let's say that she is useless, she has even done such a big thing as helping Ling Tiancheng become emperor back then, but it can be said that she is useful, she has been in the palace for so long, and she really hasn't seen what thunderous means she has come up with.

On the contrary, it was An Miaoer, although she was a little poisonous, she really had a bit of momentum, and she could suppress the Empress Dowager An at that time.

Forget it, it's okay if you don't know so much about these things in the inner palace.

Zhuang Siyan went to Ningshou Palace this time to be very unpleasant, and he didn't say a few words to Empress Dowager An before and after, but obviously, both of them were a little angry.

So after coming back from her, Zhuang Siyan changed his clothes, took out the waist card from the palace, and walked outside.

Originally, when you go out of the harem, there is a separate door to get out of the palace.

But today, Zhuang Siyan took a long detour, went out of Zichen Palace, then went to Nanchen Gate, and then walked through the noon gate in the palace.

The noon gate is the main gate of the entire palace, and it will also be carried out here when there are many major events in the palace.

Like Zhuang Siyan, it is extremely rare to sneak out of here alone.

Even when Ling Tiancheng usually went out, he only went to Nanhua Gate.

She was like going to the Forbidden City to visit, walking all the way to see it, if it wasn't for the waist card she was holding was too hard, the guards who patrolled the palace would have grabbed her several times.

However, it was in this situation that Zhuang Siyan saw another person here.

Wen Min.

Wen Min has been low-key since Luo Ke and Zhuang Changyuan fell together, and his voice can hardly be heard in the court, and he usually has no sense of existence.

Many people seem to have forgotten his existence, after all, he is not an official with real power, he used to rely on something, but now he has become a lonely person, and no one should take care of him.

But Wen Min's eyes were very sharp, and as soon as Lao Yuan saw him, he hurriedly came over to greet him: "Master Si." ”

Zhuang Siyan looked at him with a smile and returned a salute: "Lord Wen." ”

On the basis of politeness, the two sides asked each other if they were okay to wander around the palace, what kind of trouble were they going to make?

Zhuang Siyan replied first: "It's nothing to do, just take a walk." ”

Wen Min didn't tell the truth: "Xiaguan has just finished the recorded affairs, so he will go home." ”

Zhuang Siyan glanced at the noon gate and said, "It's just right, I'm also out of the palace, let's go together." ”

Wen Min's face was obviously a little stiff, but he still said, "It's an honor for Xia Guan to be with Master Si." ”

Zhuang Siyan smiled on the surface, but said in his heart: "It took eight lifetimes of mold to meet me, right?" ”

Yes, Zhuang Siyan, who had nowhere to go out of the palace, saw Wen Min at this time, and suddenly had a whim and wanted to go to his house to sit down.

But for fear of Wen Min's refusal, she didn't say so at first, but a routine, figuring out that Wen Min really wanted to go home, and if she didn't go out after she went back, there was nothing to do, just to tease the cat and the dog and enjoy the old age.

Only then did she speak: "I didn't expect Lord Wen to live so leisurely when he went home, I would like to see it." ”

Wen Min: "......"

What is there to learn about homely life?

"The life of the old man is boring and tasteless, I'm afraid I won't be able to get into the eyes of Master Si!"

Zhuang Siyan had been waiting for him for a long time, and he blocked back with a casual sentence: "The life of young people is too noisy, I'm tired of it, let's go and learn from Master Wen."

Oh yes, Lord Wen wouldn't be unwelcome from me, would he? ”

Of course it's not welcome, but what else can Wen Min say now?

He is an official given by the emperor himself, and he originally carried out the investigation of hundreds of officials, if Wen Min really refused to let him in, wouldn't it be the same as saying that there was a problem in his house?

The reason for the mess made him unable to speak, so he could only welcome Zhuang Siyan in.

Compared with Luo Ke and Zhuang Changyuan's house, Wenfu is really a small family, there are almost no extravagant things, and even the courtyard is mainly simple and practical.

Zhuang Siyan walked around, drank a cup of tea with Wen Min, and then asked: "What does Master Wen think about Zhuang Xiang's escape from prison?" ”
