Xiao Yuejiu's cry became louder and louder, and I was about to make a move, when I saw a pair of silver chopsticks straight into the center of the man's eyebrows, and the dagger was loose.

I looked at the person who made the shot, Beiyu Jinchen stroked the oil stains on the cuffs unhurriedly, his strength was too much, and he didn't leave the other party alive at all, I always thought that my martial arts were good, but compared to these two people, there was a huge difference.

"It's too late to save the driver, please punish the saint." The governor of the Imperial Guards knelt on the ground and spoke earnestly.

There were more than a dozen corpses on the ground, five assassins, a dozen or so royal guards, and only three of the remaining assassins were caught but all committed suicide by poisoning, and the concubines and ministers were more or less wounded, but fortunately no one was killed.

"Self-punishment for three months, demoted one level, do you have any complaints?" Bei Yuliang was also obviously a little physically exhausted, and he frowned sleepily.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The governor is very grateful, it seems that he has met a good-natured master, if he changes Beiyu Jinchen, I am afraid that hundreds of people will be buried with him.

"I'm tired, so let's all disperse. Let the imperial doctor give the injured a good diagnosis and treatment, you go to investigate the matter thoroughly, and if you can get to the bottom of it, the official will be reinstated. ”

Bei Yuliang also picked up Xiao Yuejiu, who was still sobbing, and comforted him softly. A strange feeling suddenly surged in my heart, this seemingly pale and thin person can not only take on the important task of governing the common people with one enemy and ten, but also a good father who loves his daughter.

My aunt only told me that this throne was won by the concubine Degui next to the emperor for her son by unsightly means.

After a while, the nurse took Yuejiu away directly, and he was free.

I originally thought that this assassination was just in time for my performance, and it must have been someone in the palace who leaked the news and deliberately framed Beiyu Jinchen. I thought I was going to be locked up and interrogated, but he left without any words to communicate with me.

I looked at his back, and suddenly realized that if this person wore a plain robe like snow, he would definitely be a stunning young man like a fairy, but it was a pity that the palace was absolutely not allowed to wear such pure and plain white clothes, which was a symbol of bad luck, unless it was a royal relative who died and mourned.

"Girl, please." An elderly father-in-law made a gesture of invitation, his smile was neither humble nor overbearing, and his voice was not as sharp as others, warm and unhurried. The material of the clothes is darker, so it seems that this person is also a highly respected figure in the palace.

I followed him all the way to the inner sanctuary, far away from the Ronghua Pool, along the way there were sharp stones to the soles of the feet, the fine pain only calmed the inner uneasiness a little, the dance dress was very long, the huge and gorgeous beads were embellished on the skirt just to cover the feet, I couldn't see if it had been scratched by the stones.

The stone bricks in front of the hall are made of white jade, the midsummer night is cool and comfortable, look up, a hot stamping plaque is written with vigorous pen power "Longcheng Palace". I was shocked, this was not the Wuling Palace that I had originally discussed with Beiyu Jinchen.

Longcheng Hall is the place where the emperor approves the chapter to discuss national affairs, and it is also the royal study room of the emperors of the past dynasties.

The harem ladies are generally not allowed to enter, and only two people in Beiyan have broken the precedent since the founding of the country, one is the heroic and martial female general Liu Su, and the other is the favorite concubine of the first emperor, the current queen mother. It is said that the precepts are strict, but the emperor's personal maids and palace maids on duty can arrange cleaning matters when there is no major matter to discuss.

I'm not here to wipe the table and sweep the floor, am I? Thinking of this, he smiled bitterly, and the father-in-law who led the way stopped and looked at me with complicated eyes: "The girl is resting in for a while, and the old slave is inconvenient to go in." ”

I nodded, lifted my skirt and went up the steps, there was no imagined brilliance, a mahogany table was placed in the center, there were three inner rooms, all separated by golden gauze, the most spectacular should be this row after row of neat and clean books, there are historical records, military books, ancient sayings, and even folk book reviews and plays.

While trying to convince myself not to panic and just improvise, I hoped that Beiyu Jinchen would come up with a way to save me.

The whole hall was filled with sweet and greasy fragrances, and a little palace maid in green stood on the incense burner and went to add spices to it.

I walked over, the little palace maid raised her head, a beautiful face, but not powdered but people can't forget at a glance, there is a trace of fireworks in the beauty, a little more kind. I didn't expect a cleaning little palace maid to have such a delicate face, Mu Han is different from her.

"What kind of incense is this?" I asked.

"It's one of the herbs, I forgot what it was called, it was offered by Linzhou, and I heard that this plant will grow small purple flowers, which is very beautiful." She shook the fan, trying to make the fire burn more brightly.

"It's Spirit Vanilla. But doesn't the emperor still have to review the recital at night? This scent can only help you sleep, you can find something refreshing, such as peppermint, tea, etc. My tone became soft, this little palace maid seems to have just entered the palace, and she still retains her former innocence and liveliness, which makes people feel good.

She looked at me carefully, and then asked slowly, "Look at your outfit, it shouldn't be a palace maid, right?" Still veiled, huh...... You can't be the mother of which house, right? She thought for a while, and then said: "No, the harem ladies are not allowed to enter, by the way, you just said that you can use tea, but how can this tea be burned?" ”

I didn't know how to explain my identity to her, so I simply bypassed the topic, and there happened to be a cup of tea on the desk, and when I opened the tea lid, the aroma of Longjing greeted me.

"Hey, that's the emperor's thing!" The little palace maid panicked, but she didn't know how to stop it.

I smiled and poured the tea into the stove, where the fragrance of tea lingered, sweet and sweet.

"It smells so good." She smiled: "But if the emperor knows, I'm afraid it will be convicted." ”

I shook my head and said, "Actually, next time you can put the tea directly in the furnace, with a layer of copper plate in the middle, and then pour hot water, the tea fragrance will evaporate, and the smell will not be choking like incense." ”

"You're so smart, no wonder you cause so many disasters, and it's not a good thing that they're scrambling to take advantage of you." Her expression suddenly became extremely indifferent, and I finally understood where the uneasiness in my heart came from, and I was about to fight back, but someone had already taken the lead.

Her palm struck the back of my neck, and her whole body suddenly became weak, her eyes went black, and her throat welled up with fishy sweetness. I was struggling with sleepiness, and all I could hear was a faint voice.

"You've tried your best to make wedding dresses for others in the end? Liu Sujin, Liu Sujin, they all say that you are cautious and intelligent, and in my opinion, it is nothing more than that. ”

The voice gradually faded away, and there was only confusion in front of me, I didn't know what was going on, I just felt that I had taken it lightly and mistrusted others.
