In the Yilan Palace, Lan Ruoxuan looked at the letter sent by her brother, and couldn't help but clench a pair of slender jade hands.

"Youzhu, what did my brother say besides this letter?" Lan Ruoxuan asked.

Youzhu shook his head: "Niangniang, the slave maid went out of the palace and saw the master, and the master only gave this letter to the slave maid." Didn't say anything. ”

Lan Ruoxuan frowned, in the past few days, Xiao Concubine has become more and more presumptuous, yesterday she actually crossed her own rank, ordered the Shangyi Bureau to prepare an autumn shirt for her first, and passed the news to her brother, in the letter from her brother, she actually let herself do such an incredible thing......

It's not that this matter can't be done, it's just that it's too outrageous, and I must discuss it with my brother in person.

"Youzhu, you go again, today, let my brother meet me in the back garden of Yilan Palace, and say that I have something to ask her."

Youzhu didn't question it, turned his head and jumped out of the window, performed light skills, and disappeared from Lan Ruoxuan's field of vision with a slight sweep.

Quietly waiting for the arrival of Zishi, Lan Ruoxuan had never felt that time was so long.

"My sister is looking for me, but is there something wrong?" The sound was cold, like metal.

Lan Ruoxuan turned her head suddenly, saw the half of the mask on the face of the visitor, and slightly suppressed the horror in her heart, although it was not the first time she had seen her brother's mask, every time she saw it, her heart was still a little worried: "Today is because of what my brother said in the letter......" Lan Ruoxuan's voice decreased a little, and she seemed to be a little weak-hearted.

Lan Haoke spoke: "Sister thinks this method won't work? ”

Lan Ruoxuan frowned: "It's not that you can't do this." It's just, what kind of person is that concubine, if I make a rash move-"

"Heretical cult." Lan Haoke coldly spat out three words.

When Lan Ruoxuan heard these three words, she felt faintly familiar, and tried to search for these three words in her mind, suddenly recalling the words of her master back then, Lan Ruoxuan exclaimed: "But what about the Western Regions Alien Ghost Sect? ”

The Cult of Evil Spirits is a cult of sorcery that originated in the Western Regions, and it is said that in order to become its follower, you must first drink three bowls of the blood of your loved ones. The Evil Ghost Sect is famous for its strange and vicious evil numbers, and many people who can't follow the right path and have bad intentions can find people in the Evil Ghost Sect to fulfill their wishes with evil magic, and of course, the price is also very tragic.

The greatest legend about the cult is that the emperor of the neighboring dynasty fell in love with a rough bone carving. In particular, there is a waterfall in the bone carving, and there seems to be a person looming in the waterfall, like Concubine Dong Lian, who disappeared in the palace at that time. Legend has it that it was because Concubine Dong Lian was in love and became obsessed with her, and made a contract with the Alien Ghost Sect to ask the emperor to remember her forever. The bone carving was carved by the Evil Ghost Sect by cutting open Concubine Dong Lian's chest alive with a knife, taking a whole pair of her bloody ribs, and carving it with evil magic. It is said that after the ribs were taken alive, Concubine Dong Lian screamed endlessly, and she screamed alive for three days, but the strange ghosts taught people to take pleasure in this, singing and dancing for three days.

In the eyes of the heretics, man is nothing more than a vessel. Only the heretical cult in the world could come up with such a treacherous approach.

Thinking of this, Lan Ruoxuan took two steps back, her back was cold, and the hairs on her body stood up: "Brother is saying that Xiao Concubine is a disciple of the Western Regions Alien Ghost Sect?" But didn't the heretical cult disappear a few years ago? ”

Lan Haoke shook his head: "The Alien Ghost Sect has not disappeared, but has been temporarily hidden, and this time it has reappeared in the rivers and lakes, most of which are also promoted by someone behind it." ”

"That concubine ......"

Lan Haoke nodded: "I only found out that Concubine Xiao is a member of the Alien Ghost Sect, as for who she is, I haven't found out for the time being." ”

Lan Ruoxuan frowned: "But if I really follow what my brother said in your letter, wouldn't it be a startling snake?" ”

Lan Haoke hooked the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were even more refined: "What I want is to scare the snake." Without waiting for Lan Ruoxuan to ask, Lan Haoke continued: "You don't need to ask more about this matter, just do what I tell you." ”

It's a new day, a red sun rises from the east, and the golden light hits the red bricks and tiles of Changle Palace obliquely, showing a vibrant orange.

The mandarin duck was holding a grate for Kou Shu's hair, and the long hair that splashed ink like a cloud went down to the end, making Kou Shu's whole person look extraordinarily soft.

"Niangniang has heard that in the morning the palace maids and eunuchs are all spreading that they saw Xiao Concubine Niangniang secretly buried the villains who were tired of winning in the palaces, so now they are not favored in the palaces, and the emperor loves to go to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion alone." The mandarin duck grated Kou Shu's hair while looking for something to talk about.

Kou Shu's eyes moved slightly: "Oh? ”

Mandarin Duck nodded, and said in a low voice: "But the first few people who came out with the news were all from Concubine Lan's Palace. ”

Kou Shu smiled slightly, thinking that Lan Ruoxuan had also found out something and was in a hurry to make a move. However, Concubine Xiao is a little unpredictable, since Lan Ruoxuan is willing, she will wait and see what happens.

Hearing this, Ripple nodded again and again: "Niangniang, now that I have heard the rumors in the palaces, I am secretly turning over the villain who is tired of winning, should we also look for it." ”

"You don't have to look for it, you know it's a rumor, so why bother." Kou Shu waved her hand.

As soon as Ripple wanted to speak, he saw the little eunuch in the front yard come in and kowtow: "Queen Niangniang, Concubine Lan Niangniang is here." ”

A knowing smile crossed Kou Shu's eyes, and when she got up, she saw Lan Ruoxuan walking in with a smile.

"Senior sister, why is she so interested today." Kou Shu smiled.

Lan Ruoxuan was also very enthusiastic, and stepped forward to take Kou Shu's hand and said, "I haven't been here for a long time, I'm afraid that my senior sister will forget me." ”

Kou Shu was very intimate on her face, and pulled Lan Ruoxuan to sit down and talk.

After chatting for a long time, Lan Ruoxuan suddenly spoke: "I don't know if senior sister has heard rumors in the palace?" ”

"Rumors?" Kou Shu was stunned, "Senior sister?" ”

Lan Ruoxuan smiled secretly: "It's the rumor of the concubine." ”

Finally came, Kou Shu sneered in her heart, but she couldn't see anything on her face: "Senior sister is saying that Concubine Xiao did something in the palace?" ”

Lan Ruoxuan nodded: "What does Senior Sister think about this matter?" ”

"Senior sister, do you think this is true?" Kou Shu asked rhetorically.

Lan Ruoxuan was stunned for a moment, and seemed to be thoughtful: "Groundless, it may not be without a reason, if that concubine really didn't do anything, why is there such a rumor." ”

Kou Shu pursed her lips and smiled: "Senior sister, the art of aversion to victory has been expressly forbidden since I declared the founding of the country, if the people find that someone uses the art of aversion to win, they will have to weigh a hundred rods, and if they are found in the palace, it is the crime of killing the head, so how stupid will the concubine be?" ”

"The human heart is the most unpredictable, and how much benefit there is, how much sacrifice it is willing to take. Senior sister, look, isn't it the best example of the harem that Concubine Xiao is spoiling the harem now? ”

Kou Shu smiled faintly and pulled the topic away. Lan Ruoxuan couldn't help but be a little discouraged when she saw that Kou Shu didn't take the bait, and after sitting for a while, she went straight back to Yilan Palace.

"Niangniang, what does this Concubine Lan mean......" Lan Ruoxuan came over early in the morning and sat until the time of lunch, which made the mandarin duck a little confused.

Kou Shu glanced at the food that had just been served on the table, and said with a light smile: "She just released the news, she wants to come to find out my style, and provoke me to make a big deal about it, if I show a trace of suspicion, she can use my name to do her own thing." ”
