"Yes, the emperor didn't tell the next words, but just told me to wait for the morning to coax the prince to sleep, and take the prince to the imperial study in the afternoon,"

Hearing this, I yawned, smashed my toothless mouth, closed my eyes and fell asleep.

I only held the trace for a short while, but after a moment of time, I felt that my arm was a little sore, and put the trace on the rocker, and then ordered: "Ye Qing, don't tell the emperor the news that Mo Chuan is gone, you go to find out about King Chen, since he entered the palace, I have a fresh face in Changchun Palace, I don't know who it is, you go out to find out,"

Hearing this, Ye Qing leaned over and said very worriedly: "Niangniang, this King Chen lives in Chonghua Palace at the moment, if I go, will it arouse the emperor's suspicion?" If you make the emperor angry and make the emperor angry with you, how bad is it?"

"Isn't it okay for you to listen in private, even if the emperor knows? Everything is in the hands of the main palace."

After saying this, I shoved her and motioned for her to hurry out.

This time, it's night again, the wind is blowing, I'm sitting on the swing in a daze, this Ye Qing has been out for a day and hasn't come back, I'm lazy leaning on the swing and not moving, and my mind is also very empty.

In an unknown palace, the little palace maid who appeared in Changchun Palace in the past two days knelt on the ground at this moment, and shouted respectfully to the person in front of her: "See Lord Dark Zhi,"

"Dark embroidery, haven't you always been by the emperor's side to train secret guards for the emperor? Why did you come to Changchun Palace? ”

"The emperor's order, subordinates never dare to disobey, I know that Niangniang suspects the sudden appearance of her subordinates, and I hope that Lord Dark Zhi will help more in the future, so that Niangniang will not suspect her subordinates,"

Dark Zhi chuckled, the figure was so fast that Dark Embroidery only felt a flower in front of her, and then she felt a cold hand from hell on her neck, Dark Zhi exerted her strength, and when she saw that her face was flushed, she didn't dare to disobey, so she suddenly relaxed and asked, "Did you guess that Niangniang sent me out today to inquire about your background?" ”

"Naturally, the emperor said, the traitor Wuji has already installed people in Changchun Palace, I am afraid that you will be too busy to take care of the prince and the queen alone, so ask me to help you."

She coughed as she finished the sentence in fits and starts.

Dark Zhi looked at the sky, and said unhappily: "It's not early, I'm going back, if I don't go back, I'm going to be suspicious, you'd better not appear in front of Niangniang without permission, I will naturally help you hide it, but Changchun Palace has a lot of eyeliner, you at least don't act privately,"

"Yes, thank you, Lord Dark."

Hearing this, Dark Zhi got up slightly, and said suspiciously: "Is it that the emperor doubts my sincerity, so he sent you to spy on me?" ”

"No, no, the emperor knows that King Chen and the traitor Wuji have hooked up recently, and now the external troubles of the Rus Kingdom have not been resolved, and the situation in the entire Kyoto is uncertain, and the emperor is most relieved of the internal and external troubles is Niangniang, really just asking me to protect Niangniang's safety,"

Dark embroidery buried his figure very low at this moment, so respectful that it was as if he had seen the emperor himself.

"But don't forget, even the emperor's life was saved by me back then, except that I am his deepest hidden secret guard, and also his savior, if you provoke the emperor to doubt the sincerity of Niangniang and this secret guard in front of the emperor, you are afraid that you will not live long,"

"Lord Dark Zhi is angry, the emperor really just sent his subordinates to protect Niangniang, please rest assured, Lord Dark Zhi,"

Hearing this, Dark Zhi retracted her gaze at this person, and seemed to be relieved and said: "We are the only two female secret guards in the emperor, and now they are all by Niangniang's side, you came suddenly, if you expose your identity one day, don't expose me as well."

"Yes, Lord Dark, please rest assured、"

"You are different from me, if you let Niangniang find out that you are sent by the emperor, Niangniang will make trouble with the emperor at most, but I am different, I have been following Niangniang for nearly eight years, and I have been placed by Niangniang's side since I was at home, Niangniang has always treated me very well, if she knows that I have always been just a secret guard to monitor her whereabouts, Niangniang may be sad,"

Speaking of this, Dark Zhi's mind was a little uncertain, and his tone was not as sharp as Fang Cai, and he waved his hand annoyedly and said: "I'll go back, you have to take what I just said to heart, since the emperor told you to protect your mother well, you just do it, don't have extra thoughts,"

"Yes, Lord Dark, please rest assured、"

Hearing this, Dark Zhi was about to leave, but turned around and asked, "What you just said is that the prince and Niangniang's master Wuji are connected, aren't you?" ”

Hearing this, the dark embroidery nodded, and continued: "Not only did he take the head, it is said that the Zuo family has private soldiers, and the troops brought by King Chen recently, in the name of having military merits to be paid silver, are still in the suburbs of Beijing,"

Saying this, the dark embroidery was a little unstable, and said the guess in his heart: "My lord, you said that the general on the edge of the town died in the Rus country for no apparent reason, and those soldiers in the suburbs of Beijing were already indignant, and now if the emperor insists on not sending troops to the Rus country, he will provoke the dissatisfaction of the imperial generals and the tens of thousands of troops, I am afraid that he will mutiny."

"Don't talk nonsense, if you have the heart to guess here, it's better to inquire about the whereabouts of that Zuo Wuji, don't let that person take advantage of a loophole at this time,"

When Dark Xiu heard this, she pursed her thin lips, and once again said what she thought in her heart: "My lord, if at this time, King Chen colludes with the concubine of the Zuo family and uses this gimmick to deliberately create a mutiny to force the palace, what should I do?" ”

Dark Zhi looked at the sky that was already dusk, turned around and said: "You are one of the emperor's best secret guards, don't guess whether these are or not, the emperor has already cleaned up the Zuo family in Shandong, you should go and guard against King Chen, the high priest has no reason to poison the general on the edge of the town, maybe this so-called evidence is just made up by King Chen, for this purpose, to make the entire court and government turbulent, that is not sure,"

Dark embroidery squinted her eyes and said respectfully yes,

"Then I'll go back first today, you go to King Chen's side and keep an eye on it, Changchun Palace has me and Mo Yu Mocen, nothing will happen, you have nothing to do recently, go to Chonghua Palace to stare at King Chen, if there is any trouble, tell the emperor directly, isn't it better?"

As soon as Dark Xiu heard this, he knew that Lord Dark Zhi had the intention of sending himself out of Changchun Palace, and said in embarrassment: "But the emperor's order is to ask his subordinates to come to Changchun Palace to protect Niangniang?" ”

"You tell the emperor the reason just now, the emperor will agree, if the emperor does not agree, you can come to Changchun Palace again,"

Hearing this, Dark Embroidery raised his head, but only saw a piece of Dark Zhi's robe, which was only three or two steps away in an instant

At this time, a person walked out again, and instructed calmly: "Do what Dark Zhi said, you just go and watch King Chen."

"Your Majesty, my subordinates don't understand, it's clear that this Lord Dark Zhi is no longer sincere to you, she never tells you Niangniang's whereabouts, why do you still keep her and give her so much power?"

Secretly embroidered this bold words, so that Long Yuling was immediately unhappy, at this moment the sunset dusk light pulled his shadow to the elder, making this dilapidated palace appear even darker, he looked up at the sunset, and said softly: "Among the dark guards, she is the most advantageous,"

"My subordinates don't understand," her puzzled eyes narrowed, not understanding what she meant.

"Today's words, she will tell the queen mother, and she will be convinced of it, but you can't, you have been in Changchun Palace for so long, have you ever entered the body of the queen mother? You only showed up once when the queen was served, and it made her suspicious, you can't get her trust, even if your martial arts are higher than Dark Zhi, in my eyes, you are inferior to Dark Zhi."

After saying this, Long Yuling raised his feet and left, leaving secretly embroidered alone in this palace.

Dark embroidery suddenly realized at this moment, and he also got up and went towards Chonghua Palace.

"Mother?"

Ye Qing put a cloak on me and told me to wake up at once, she saw that I was awake and squatted in front of me, and asked softly, "Niangniang, why did you fall asleep while sitting on the swing?" ”

As soon as I saw Ye Qing coming back, I quickly grabbed her wrist and asked, "How is it?" What came out? ”

"Niangniang, the slave maid has asked someone to prepare dinner, you can have dinner first,"

She snorted behind me as she spoke, and I immediately shut up, gathered the water-red cloak she had just given me, nodded, and stood up with her outstretched hand.

Turning around, Long Yuling walked over not far away, sent Ye Qing away, and then looked at me and said, "Mo'er, why do I think you look listless, what's wrong, is the wind frozen?" ”

"Probably, maybe."

After saying this, I took his hand, pulled his arm, and said with a chuckle: "Let me ask you, what do you do every day when you ask the nurse to carry the trace to the imperial study?" ”

"Zhen'er is the crown prince, sooner or later he will have to grasp the affairs of the country, why not go in early?"

Hearing this, I held my forehead, and said helplessly: "Are you too anxious, the first year of the year has not yet arrived, and even the father and queen mother are still shouting unfavorably, I see that the hair on his head has not yet grown, you let him listen to you all day long to listen to how you govern the court, is it too early?"

He seemed to see that I was a little unhappy, and after pulling me up, he said flatteringly: "Okay, don't be unhappy, it's all my fault, I'm too anxious, I won't do it in the future, don't be angry, okay?" ”

I only nodded when I heard this, but my heart seemed to be weighed down by a jack, and I was really in a terrible mood, sitting at the table full of delicacies, looking at these dishes and not being able to satisfy my appetite, but still under his inquiring gaze, I forced myself to eat two small bowls of rice.

"Mo'er, what's wrong with you?"
