Chapter 54: The Fish Takes the Bait

Zhuang Siyan was very strange for Ling Tiancheng for disturbing her good things.

I rushed to the Empress Dowager An early in the morning, just to pretend to be deep, scheming, and very powerful.

In this way, the person who was also placed in the palace would take the initiative to contact her.

Because she knew that she already had the strength to turn the tables for Zhuang Changyuan, but before her plan could fully play its role, she was disrupted by Ling Tiancheng.

But thinking about it on the other hand, Ling Tiancheng's performance today also happened to show those palace concubines that she Zhuang Siyan was favored, different, and unprovoked by others.

This effect seems to be better, after all, in the harem, no matter how powerful you are, it is useless, in the final analysis, it has to be liked by the emperor.

Thinking about it like this, coupled with the kind of pampering tone when Ling Tiancheng spoke to her just now, Zhuang Siyan dissipated his anger.

She has a cheerful personality, and she hates to break someone's legs, but she will not twist and pinch when she releases her previous suspicions.

So he was kicking the ground and muttering at the moment, and when he saw Ling Tiancheng's outstretched hand, he grabbed it, and a smile instantly appeared on his face: "I'm relieved if you say that, but for the sake of convenience, we'd better stay away, if there's anything going on, let's go back at night, it's better to be busy during the day." ”

For her initiative to get close, Ling Tiancheng was happy and a little awkward, but his hand was still tight, and he took her back to the Xuan Hall quickly.

In the morning, the affairs of the Queen Mother's Palace, without wings, spread throughout the entire palace in the shortest possible time.

Of course, there are all kinds of things, but Zhuang Siyan doesn't care.

She sat peacefully under the corridor of the side courtyard of the Xuan Palace, telling jokes to Lan Xin and them, while thinking about what else could be loosened in this case.

Of course, the more important thing is still waiting for someone.

At noon, food was brought in from the imperial dining room, and Zhuang Siyan asked casually: "Did the emperor eat there?" ”

The little eunuchs waiting beside him responded: "The emperor was not in the Xuan Palace in the morning, and he may have gone to another palace." ”

Zhuang Siyan didn't ask any more questions, and ate happily.

After eating a meal, I realized that something seemed to be wrong at the bottom of the bowl.

She hurriedly withdrew the palace people, then reversed the bottom of the bowl, and soon saw the entrained note inside, smiled lightly, and asked her to meet her in the imperial garden at dusk.

Zhuang Siyan smiled on his lips.

The fish is hooked, whether it is a fat crucian carp or a shark that eats people, as long as there is movement, it is a good thing.

When we move, everything can move forward.

So in the afternoon, she took a quiet nap, and when she got up, it was already dark.

She thought she had missed the time, but Lan Xin told her that it was still early at this time, but the Tianbao was gloomy, and it might be snowing again.

Zhuang Siyan cleaned himself up, and as soon as he said this, he went out to see if Ling Tiancheng had returned, and he didn't let the palace people follow, so he went out of the Xuan Palace.

The road from the Xuan Palace to the Imperial Garden is not close, and at this time, all the palaces are the time to pass the meal, so you can see groups of palace maids and eunuchs on the road, walking around with food boxes in their hands.

When they saw Zhuang Siyan, they would take the initiative to avoid both sides, salute, and wait for her to pass before continuing to walk.

Zhuang Siyan saw more people, and began to wonder what the person who asked her to come was.

It stands to reason that such a date is so good that others can't see it, why should the other party choose such a time, or let her go to the imperial garden from the Xuan Palace.

In this way, the palace maids and eunuchs in the whole palace will know her whereabouts, and they will report to their masters as soon as possible.

If Zhuang Siyan does anything again, he may not be able to hide it.

Did the other party let her come not for communication, but to bury mines?

This is fun, could it be that the person who asked her out was not to pick up Zhuang Changyuan's head, but to frame her?

Zhuang Siyan thought so, but her feet did not stop, and she also quickened her pace and walked towards the Imperial Garden, giving the impression that she had something very urgent and urgent to do in the Imperial Garden.

The road was long, and when she arrived, it was overcast again, and the whole sky seemed to be pressed down, heavy.

It looks like the snow is going to fall tonight, and it's going to be a lot of snow.

Zhuang Siyan entered through the door on one side and saw that the lights inside had been turned on, illuminating the branches that had fallen off their leaves into black.

This kind of place is best for Tibetans.

However, she was bold and bold, and she was not very careful, but instead increased her steps to let the other party know that she was coming.

When passing by a pillar of red nan trees, a person suddenly flashed behind the tree, and hurriedly rushed towards Zhuang Siyan's body.

Because of the closeness, he came out violently, normal people are scared to death, how can they still know how to dodge, and such a short distance, even if they dodge, they may not be able to avoid it.

But Zhuang Siyan was prepared, and when the other party rushed to her side, she flew up and kicked the man's chest.

Taking advantage of his unsteady standing and the strength to retreat, Zhuang Siyan also rushed towards him, and with his hand, he had completely dragged him into the nearby bushes.

These trees, although they are not tall and have no leaves, are not clear at night, and it is impossible to see what is inside.

The man still wanted to scream, but as soon as his mouth opened, Zhuang Siyan grabbed a handful of dirt and stuffed it whole.

Sure enough, as soon as the two of them hid in a safe place, a group of palace people also walked over here with lights on.

The formation was very large, there were more than a dozen people in front of and behind, Ling Tiancheng and Concubine Xian walked in the middle, talking and laughing as they walked, and stopped from time to time to take a closer look at a certain tree.

Ling Tiancheng seemed to be in a good mood today, very cooperative, he nodded whatever Concubine Xian said, and it seemed that he suddenly had a strong interest in the Imperial Garden.

However, his gaze quickly crossed the low wall of the dark trees and looked into a corner.

There was a person hiding there, although the light was very dim, Ling Tiancheng still saw it, but he couldn't see who it was, and why he was hiding there and didn't move.

Concubine Xian's expression was calm, except for looking behind the tree, almost silently.

It's just that the two of them walked around, and they didn't seem to find anything, the people in the corner didn't move, and the imperial garden was very quiet, except for the light of the lantern, and they didn't see half a shadow.

Ling Tiancheng didn't rush back, but just asked Concubine Xian casually: "I rarely come out at night, but I don't know that the night scenery of the Imperial Garden is so beautiful, or does Concubine Xian have a heart, and I think she often comes here?" ”

Concubine Xian's heart "chuckled", but her words were natural: "The winter days and nights are cold, and the concubines rarely come out, but today I have an extra glass of wine with the emperor, walk out, and dissipate the strength of the wine." ”

Ling Tiancheng didn't debunk it, he didn't say a word, and he actually walked around again.

If you don't leave, you can't talk about it.

Concubine Xian knew very well in her heart that she was disappointed, why did she make a mistake today? But suddenly I heard a woman's scream in the corner not far away.

The palace people immediately became vigilant, and surrounded the two of them first, before anyone ran towards the shout.

Ling Tiancheng said in a cold voice: "You don't need an escort, go and see what happened?" ”

A group of people rushed to the corner with lanterns.

Soon they saw a man and a woman, rolling on the ground in disheveled clothes, with a lot of mud on the man's body, his turban torn off, and his messy hair covering his face.

The woman was clean, but her clothes were torn off.

As soon as Concubine Xian saw the woman's face, her eyes suddenly darkened, and she almost fell down, and she finally calmed down, and she was busy turning around to look.

The personal girl who followed him really disappeared.

How so? Shouldn't it be Concubine Wan who is being ruined here? How did you become her palace man?

Before she could figure it out, Ling Tiancheng had already spoken: "Take these two people to the Xin Zheku and find out who the master behind them is."

There is no need to go back to me, the master will be demoted by one level, fined for half a year, and the slave will be killed. ”

Concubine Xian's legs fell down as soon as they became weak, and Ling Tiancheng's eyes were cold when he looked at her, a little colder than the cold wind in this winter: "What's wrong with Concubine Xian, don't you know these two palace people?" ”

Before Concubine Xian could speak, the palace man who was lying on the ground had already shouted: "Concubine Xian Niangniang save me ......." ”

Concubine Xian closed her eyes, thinking that she might have fallen into some deep well, there was darkness all around, only a little light at the mouth of the well, and the light was nothing else, it was a cold knife, under the illumination of the lamp, the cold light.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this palace person is from the palace of the concubines, but she was still with the concubines just now, there must be something strange about this matter, please ask the emperor to investigate?"

Ling Tiancheng said coldly: "Really? Something is wrong? What does Concubine Xian mean that I must be thoroughly investigated? ”

Concubine Xian was immediately frightened and didn't dare to speak anymore.

She had been by Ling Tiancheng's side for a long time, and she knew very well the principles of his work.

If you just find out who the master behind it is, then it's the same as what he said earlier, it's a big deal to be demoted and punished.

But if this matter is really thoroughly investigated, then it will definitely be found on Concubine Xian's head, and it will also be found out about all the arrangements she arranged, and it is a question of whether she can still live at that time.

Concubine Xian was struggling in her heart, but the palace people who couldn't wait for her reply were even more afraid, got up from the mud, and threw themselves at her: "Niangniang save me, the slave really doesn't know what's going on?" Suddenly you were dragged here, and the slave was still with you just now....... ”

Ling Tiancheng didn't want to watch this bitter love drama, and had already turned around and left.

Li Fu took his order and ordered the eunuch to pull the two disheveled men to the Xinzhi Kuri.

And Concubine Xian, until everyone retreated, stood in the imperial garden in despair.

She couldn't figure out what was going on, she obviously brought the emperor with her because she watched that slut come in, but why is there no trace of her here now?

That man is not her palace person, it was bought by Concubine Xian with a lot of effort, if she wants to be demoted and punished, then she can't run Concubine Xian and think fiercely.

It's just that her palace maid was brought over from her mother's family, and she is still reluctant to be beaten to death like this, after all, it is very difficult to raise a henchman in the palace, who knows if the person she raises is already someone else's eyeliner.

A cold wind blew through the branches, and the dark sky was pressed down a few more minutes.

Concubine Xian felt that her whole body was cold, so she quickly wrapped her clothes tightly, trying to find a way back, and then think of another way.

But as soon as she turned around, she saw Zhuang Siyan standing not far behind her, looking at her and smiling.
