After Feng Jie's case, Empress Jiang, who had been grounded for two or three months, seemed to be quiet and low-key all of a sudden, on the grounds that the Queen Mother was dissatisfied with the anniversary of the big trip and the tension in the palace, in the first year, there was no fanfare and luxury to celebrate this Mid-Autumn Festival, but all the people in the palace gathered in the back garden lake and the water pavilion in the lake, drinking wine and appreciating the month, the so-called family banquet.

The emperor is very happy, there are many beauties in the palace now, and a group of young beauties in their teens and twenties are lively and flattering, surrounding the emperor, trying their best to show off their style, in order to get a few more attentions.

The emperor was in high spirits, but it was not the time to be young in the end, it was dark, and he went back to rest happily surrounded by several winning beauties.

As soon as the emperor left, Concubine Su stood up first, and even said goodbye, and left with her own dignity.

Empress Jiang didn't seem to see Su Guifei's rudeness, she only looked at Concubine Yao Xian obliquely, Concubine Yao Xian looked at Su Guifei out of the water pavilion with a smile, stood up with the armrest of the chair and said with a smile: "It's really unforgiving, I can't stand it anymore, please let me leave." ”

"Let's go." Empress Jiang sipped her wine and seemed to be in a pretty good mood.

As soon as Concubine Yao Xian put on her thin cloak, she heard an exclamation from the opposite side of the Water Pavilion, "Mama Wu! ”

Concubine Yao Xian's hand holding the cloak shook violently, and she immediately rushed out.

Empress Jiang looked at Concubine Yao Xian, who rushed out in a gaffe, slowly raised her head, and laughed silently.

The back lake is very large, and it takes a long time to rush from the side of the water pavilion to the opposite side of the water pavilion, and Concubine Yao Xian is carrying her skirt and running like crazy.

Before she was halfway through, Concubine Yao Xian stumbled under her feet, threw herself forward and fell to the ground, immediately got up, carried her skirt and ran wildly, and several female envoys were so frightened that they forgot to help Concubine Yao Xian.

After entering the palace for decades, Concubine Yao Xian made a gaffe like this for the first time.

Empress Jiang had already stood up, standing in the place with the widest view of the Water Pavilion, looking at Concubine Yao Xian who was running wildly, and laughed.

Concubine Yao Xian fell, fell again, I don't know how many times she fell, but she still ran fast, and when she met the waiter who reported to the Water Pavilion, she had already run across half of the lake.

"What about the words? What about Wu Shanggong? What about Mama Wu? Concubine Yao Xian grabbed the waiter who was trotting all the way over, and asked the same sentence one after another.

"Hui Niangniang," the waiter was almost speechless by Concubine Yao Xian, "Wu Shanggong is still ...... Haven't fished it up yet. ”

"Why didn't you catch it? How did she fall overboard? What is she doing here? She...... What about the boat lady? Why didn't you catch it? What about people? Concubine Yao Xian's lips trembled.

"Hui Niangniang, cough cough, small ones, I don't know, cough cough, four or five boat girls, cough, and five or six people who know how to water...... It's all fishing, I haven't found it yet, cough cough cough, it's dark, it's hard to find. The chamberlain wanted to struggle but didn't dare, so he had to cough vigorously while talking to remind Concubine Yao Xian to let go of him, and he was about to be strangled to death by her collar.

Concubine Yao Xian's hand was weak, she let go of the waiter, stood for a moment, turned around and ran to her palace to take it away.

Ne Yan didn't fall into the water, she didn't die, she was captured by the Jiang family.

Concubine Yao Xian rushed back to her palace in one breath, rushed into the main hall, and plunged on the couch, "Wu ......" Before she finished saying a Wu word, Concubine Yao Xian burst into tears, supported herself hard, and instructed a few colorless henchmen who ran with her, "Give me a change of clothes, old clothes, I want to go out, inconspicuous old clothes, quickly." ”

Several female envoys have been waiting with Concubine Yao Xian for six or seven years, and they understand it very well, so they immediately took out their clothes and quickly changed them for Concubine Yao Xian, "Niangniang, you have black green on both legs, do you want to ......?"

"No, don't care, you go and pick up the silver ticket for me, one hundred taels, take more." Concubine Yao Xian's voice was slightly hoarse, but she had calmed down.

The female envoy quickly brought the silver ticket, and Concubine Yao Xian stuffed it separately in her purse, sleeves, etc., and while stuffing it, she instructed several female envoys, "I'll go out, you guys are optimistic about here, just say that I cried and fainted, and no one will see me, keep it guarded, and no one is allowed to come in, except for the emperor...... The emperor will not come, in short, keep it. ”

"When will the mother come back?" The envoy tightened her heart and asked carefully.

"Before dawn." Concubine Yao Xian replied a little numbly, maybe she couldn't come back.

Li Xia and King Qin were admiring the moon and drinking by the lake in the back garden, and Han Shanggong's skirt was like a stormy wave, rushing in, "Princess, Yao Niangniang is here, I want to see you." ”

Li Xia stood up, Concubine Yao Xian wanted to see her when she left the palace at this time, something must have happened very much.

"I'll go with you." King Qin took the cloak from Duan Yan and put it on Li Xia.

"No, it's not good for you to go." Li Xia grabbed the cloak, "Don't worry, nothing will happen, you go back first, I'll be back in a while." End inkstone. Li Xia pushed King Qin back, called Duan Yan, turned around, followed Han Shanggong, and trotted all the way to the back corner door.

The doorkeeper in the corner of the back door was not lit, but the door was open, and Concubine Yao Xian stood in the darkness inside the door, looking out of the door anxiously and desperately.

The end of the word is coming, and her end is coming.

"What's wrong?" Li Xia walked extremely fast, rushed into the gatehouse, and asked.

"Mama Wu has fallen into the hands of the Jiang family." Concubine Yao Xian said a few words, but concisely but understood what had just happened, "...... Lao Wu won't go to the lake, when I came out, she was taking care of things, I wasn't in the palace, she wouldn't come out easily, today in Houhu for the Mid-Autumn Festival, the number of people on duty at the lake is more than twice as many as usual, even if someone falls into the water, it can be rescued immediately, there is no Li'er who can't see anyone alive or dead......" Concubine Yao Xian's voice was a little choked.

"I understand." Li Xia interrupted Concubine Yao Xian's explanation, "How much does Wu Neyan know?" ”

"I know, she knows it." Concubine Yao Xian's tears fell.

"Then she's still alive right now." Li Xia looked at Concubine Yao Xian, who was sad and could barely restrain herself.

This Wu Nayan, she knows, she is the daughter of Concubine Yao Xian's nurse, she grew up with her, before she returned to the Yao family, she said that she was the master and servant, but in fact, she was a sister, and later followed her into the palace......

"I ......" Concubine Yao Xian didn't say a word, and her throat choked out.

"Go and call Guo Sheng, immediately, the sooner the better." Li Xia first instructed Duan Yan.

Duan Yan turned around and ran.

"Even if Mama Wu is still alive at this time, but, even if she is still alive at this time, she can't survive in this bureau." Li Xia looked at Concubine Yao Xian and said in a low voice.

"I know." Concubine Yao Xian kept nodding, "At the beginning, when Neyan entered the palace with me, she and I were both ...... I know that I will die, I am not afraid of death, and she is not afraid, but I don't know if the princess has seen the punishment in the palace, the Shen Criminal Division is in the hands of the Jiang family, it can be regarded as a development, I have seen it a few times, I don't hide it from the princess, if it were me, I was afraid that I would not survive, and the words would not harm me, but that punishment is not something that people can survive, I know, she knows it, I ......"

"I know what you mean." Li Xia patted Concubine Yao Xian's arm lightly, "Let me think about it." ”

Concubine Yao Xian kept nodding, she could keep her composure, but her heart was in turmoil.

Li Xia turned back and forth a few times, stood in front of Concubine Yao Xian, and looked directly at her, "I have to plan for the worst in this matter, Mama Wu has no way to live, I can't save her." ”

Concubine Yao Xian burst into tears and kept nodding, "I know, I know, I already knew, and she also knew." ”

"However, you, and the people in the palace, can't let her swallow it in one gulp." Li Xia's voice was cold, like the moonlight like water outside. "How long will it take to get the key to the palace gate?"

Li Xia looked at Han Shanggong, and Han Shanggong immediately replied: "Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, according to the rules, it is half an hour later than usual, and there is still about an hour and two quarters of an hour before the key falls. ”

"Let Huang Daban go, let Zhao kill himself, scare Sun, let her make a fuss, the more lively the trouble, the better, go quickly." Li Xia thought about it and immediately ordered Han Shanggong.

Han Shanggong agreed, and trotted all the way to find Eunuch Huang with his skirt.

"You go back now, don't go back to the palace, go in from the Donghua Gate, go directly to the palace, find Wei Yuze, tell her about Mama Wu's disappearance, find her to cry, you know how to move her, cry with her, don't go back to the palace tonight, let her take you in for one night, and let her send you back tomorrow when the palace gate opens."

Li Xia instructed Concubine Yao Xian, Concubine Yao Xian nodded again and again, turned around and went out of the door, took two steps, paused, turned around and bowed to Li Xia deeply, and then turned around and left again.

Li Xia stood in the gatehouse and waited for a long time, Guo Sheng arrived first.

"Let me ask you, if you want to open a person's mouth by any means, how long will it take to be afraid of death?" Li Xia saw Guo Sheng and asked.

Guo Sheng was stunned, but his answer was fast, "It depends on the person, the princess said that she is not afraid of death, this kind of person who makes up her mind and does not open her mouth, is too anxious, but there are two or three hours, and it is enough." ”

"That's too late." Li Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and commanded Duan Yan, who was almost out of breath when he ran: "You don't have to follow, go back and say hello to the prince, I'm going to go out for a while, it's nothing, let him not worry." ”

"Yes." Duan Yan immediately agreed.

Li Xia turned around and instructed Guo Sheng, "You follow me, it's not too far, you don't need a horse, the movement is too big." ”

Although Guo Sheng didn't know what was going on, looking at Li Xia like this, he knew that things must be small, "Where to go?" Princess, I will bring the rich and the silver ......."

"Enough, go to Su Mansion." Li Xia interrupted Guo Sheng's words, went straight out of the back corner door, and strode forward.

Guo Sheng was stunned again, hurriedly followed out, beckoned Fugui and Yingui hidden in the shadows, walked in front of Li Xia in a few steps, and took a shortcut to Su Mansion.

The Mid-Autumn Festival in Su Mansion has always been lively and exquisite, Bai Yue and Su Ye's daughter Sister Nan are having fun and refuse to sleep, Bai Yue wants to have a straight face, but Su Ye can't bear to sweep his daughter's fun, and accompanied his daughter to step on the moon shadow until her daughter's tired head fell asleep in his arms, and then handed her daughter over to the nurse to take down to rest.

Park Hyatt had just let people rewarm the wine, and the mother-in-law on duty at the back corner door trotted in all the way, "Grandma, there is a man in the corner gate, wrapped in his head and face, he can't see anything clearly, he took such a thing, and said that he wanted to see the big grandma." ”

As she spoke, the mother-in-law handed a tightly tied coarse cloth bag to Park Hyatt.

Bai Yue frowned, took the coarse cloth bag, waved his hand and motioned for his mother-in-law to step back, and looked at it carefully before untying it vigorously.

Su Ye stood next to Bai Yue, reached out and touched the coarse cloth bag, frowned, and said, "Family? ”

"Probably not." Bai Yue replied casually, and quickly untied the cloth bag, which contained a piece of mutton fat jade forbidden by dragon and phoenix. Bai Yue looked at the forbidden step in amazement, "This is Princess Qin's thing, the Queen Mother rewarded it, I've seen it a few times, what is she doing here?" ”

"I'll go with you to see it." Su Ye picked up the forbidden step and looked at it carefully, it was indeed something that came out of the palace, and the imperial logo underneath was clear and obvious.

"Well, she wants to see me, don't come close, wait for me by the side." Bai Yue held the forbidden step, and together with Su Ye, called the mother-in-law, and hurriedly walked towards the corner gate.

Guo Sheng stood close to the door frame of the corner door, watching Su Ye accompany Bai Yue from a distance, and hurriedly walked over, busy and motionless and looked at the two of them close to the door frame.

Twenty or thirty steps away from the corner gate, Su Ye paused, stood under an osmanthus tree, Bai Yue walked forward alone, looking at Bai Yue was still four or five steps away, Guo Sheng stood in the middle of the corner door, bowed slightly, and motioned for Bai Yue to go out of the corner door to speak.

Park Hyatt's footsteps paused slightly, staring sharply at Guo Sheng, Guo Sheng tore off the bun cloth a little, smiled at her and nodded.

Park Hyatt recognized Guo Sheng very clearly, seeing Guo Sheng wrapped like that, his eyebrows were slightly raised, he wanted to laugh and held back, followed Guo Sheng, and hurriedly walked out of the corner door.

"Sister, General Tiger Girl, this courage is really not simple." Li Xia looked at Bai Yue who stepped out of the corner door, bowed slightly, and smiled.

"It's really you." Bai Yue looked at Li Xia in surprise.

"Of course it's me, forbidden to step." Li Xia stretched out his hand to forbid first.

"What's wrong?" Bai Yue handed the forbidden step to Li Xia and asked with concern.

"Well, something big happened, and I'm here to ask my sister for help." Li Xia took the forbidden step and said in a casual tone.

"Look at your leisurely appearance, it doesn't look like something big has happened, what's wrong?" Park Hyatt is a little confused.

She came to her at this time, and the matter should not be small, but looking at her leisurely appearance, it really doesn't look like something has happened.

"Yao Niangniang has a mother-in-law who has been waiting since she was a child, surnamed Wu, Wu Shanggong, who was just captured by Jiang Niangniang." Li Xia's tone was still relaxed, but Bai Yue was stunned when he listened.

She knows Wu Shanggong, the most confidant and the most useful person around Concubine Yao Xian, she was captured by Empress Jiang? What did Empress Jiang do when she caught her? Get you back?

"My sister also knows that after the Queen Mother left, Huang Daban and Han Shanggong came to our house to raise them, and there were still some people in the palace, so they were handed over to Yao Niangniang, these people, about Yao Niangniang, have always been Jiang Niangniang's thorns in the flesh, who these people are, Wu Shanggong knows. Yao Niangniang knows, Wu Shanggong knows, Jiang Niangniang caught Wu Shanggong because of this. ”

Li Xia looked at Park Hyatt, straightforward and honest.
