In the blink of an eye, it was April, and the flowers in the back garden were also lush and blooming, competing for beauty and beauty, and the palace concubines were all wearing red and green, only Bai Xuan never appeared in front of people again.

Since Bai Xuan's face had a red rash, Zhong Cuige's favor has plummeted, and everyone in the palace said that Bai Xuan was ruined on a face, only Kou Shu knew in her heart that it was not only Bai Xuan's face and rash that disappointed Song Jinyan.

However, in the Yilan Palace, there is often a figure of Song Jinyan, which makes people feel that it is still Concubine Lan who is really prosperous.

"Niangniang—" Qingnu's voice sounded slowly, "dinner is brought to you." ”

Lan Ruoxuan nodded, pointed to the table casually and said, "Put it there." "Slowly approaching the table, looking at the dishes on the plate, frowning;" It's not my usual favorite dish, what's going on today? ”

Qingnu was stunned for a moment, and wanted to say something, but saw Kaori come forward and give Lan Ruoxuan a look. Lan Ruoxuan was slightly stunned in her heart, sat down, looked at the food on the plate carefully, glanced at Qingnu, and said, "You go down first, this palace wants to eat alone." ”

A trace of coldness flashed in Qing Nu's eyes, and then he retreated expressionlessly.

"Niangniang-" Kaori stepped forward, lowered her voice and said cautiously, "This is something that the master ordered someone to send in, I think there should be important news in it." ”

Lan Ruoxuan nodded, carefully fiddling with the things on the plate, and after a while, a small bamboo skewer appeared in front of her eyes.

I opened the bamboo skewer and there was a note inside. When I opened the note, there was not a word.

Looking at a blank note, Lan Ruoxuan frowned: "Did my brother say anything else?" ”

Kaori nodded and said, "The master will use a special kind of paper, and a special reagent is needed to manifest it." We all carry it with us. As she spoke, Kaori took out a small bamboo bottle from her arms, poured it into a tea cup on the side, and then handed it to Lan Ruoxuan, saying, "Please pour this water on the paper to show the handwriting." ”

Lan Ruoxuan took the water glass, dipped it lightly and sprinkled it on the paper, and after a while, a faint gray handwriting appeared.

After reading the ten lines at a glance, Lan Ruoxuan's brows furrowed even deeper, and she didn't speak for a long time, and only after a long time did she say to Kaori: "You go and call Qingnu in." ”

Qingnu pushed the door in, and then saw Lan Ruoxuan standing in front of him with a kind face; "Qingnu, you have been coming to the Yilan Hall for a while."

Qingnu nodded: "Back to Niangniang, it has been almost a month since Qingnu arrived in Yilan Palace." ”

Lan Ruoxuan nodded, her eyes softer: "You are from Nanzhao, you have your own name, I know that I have been living under the name of Youzhu, and I have wronged you." ”

has been snubbed and isolated by Lan Ruoxuan, Qingnu didn't expect Lan Ruoxuan to suddenly change her attitude towards herself, she was a little vigilant in her heart, bowed down and said respectfully: "Niangniang doesn't mind, since Gongzi asked me to stay by Niangniang's side, Qingnu will do his best to serve Niangniang." ”

Lan Ruoxuan nodded, and there was even more kindness in her eyes: "You go and tell Chu Li that I am willing to cooperate with him, and if he wants to do anything in the future, I can cooperate with him." ”

Qingnu lowered his hand: "Yes, Qingnu must bring Niangniang's words." ”

"But-" Lan Ruoxuan's voice continued, "I have a request. ”

Qingnu raised her head, and before she could ask what she wanted, she only felt that her throat was tight, and a pill slid down her throat extremely quickly, only to hear Lan Ruoxuan's voice come coldly: "I want you." ”

"Niangniang-" Qing Nu lowered his body, his face turned pale, and he bit his lower lip.

Lan Ruoxuan stood up, approached Qingnu step by step, and said slowly: "This medicine is called Qiriyan, and you have to take the antidote every seven days, from now on, if you have a disobedient heart, or let me find out what you should not do for your master, the consequences will be understood in your own heart." ”

Qing Nu's body trembled suddenly, and he only heard Lan Ruoxuan's voice and continued: "Go back and tell Chu Li that if you want to cooperate with me, you must always have at least sincerity, and leaving someone by my side must be enough to reassure me." ”

In the evening, Qingnu brought Chu Li's reply, and Chu Li accepted Lan Ruoxuan's request, and the two reached a consensus.

In Lan Ruoxuan's bedroom in Yilan Palace, Lan Ruoxuan looked at the Qing slave in front of her, with an inevitable smile in her eyes, and said; "Qingnu, you can't forget, you can be disguised as anyone, right?"

Qingnu nodded.

Lan Ruoxuan's index finger and thumb were slightly twisted, and her heart moved slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

In the middle of the night for several days, there was a figure quietly coming out of the Yilan Palace, that person was wearing a night robe, wrapped himself tightly from beginning to end, tiptoed along the palace gate, tiptoed into the imperial study, and when it was almost dawn, he sneaked into the Yilan Palace.

After retreating from others, Lan Ruoxuan sat in the Yilan Palace, staring at the blooming phalaenopsis outside the window without saying a word, and after a long time, she slowly spoke: "Kaori, is what my brother said true, why did I go to the imperial study to look for so long, but I still can't find the lock?" ”

Lan Haoke said two things in the news that came, the first thing was that he could form an alliance with Chu Li, and the second thing was that the key to the receiver that day was composed of three parts, of which the part of the lock was hidden in the imperial study, and Lan Haoke asked Lan Ruoxuan to find a way to steal it.

But for several days in a row, Lan Ruoxuan slipped into the palace night and night, but the entire imperial study was rummaged through by herself, and she couldn't find the lock. Lan Ruoxuan couldn't help but be discouraged.

"If the mother can't find that thing, why don't the slave find a way to spread the news, and then let the master think about it?" Kaori tilted her head and thought about it, and spoke tentatively.

"Don't-" Lan Ruoxuan's eyes lit up, and she decisively refused: "I have disappointed my brother several times, if I can't find this thing again, my brother will definitely be dissatisfied with me." In this way—" After thinking for a moment, Lan Ruoxuan bent down and lowered her voice to Kaori and said a few words.

Not far away, no one noticed that a cold eye peeked through the crack in the window, with a bit of cold chill. The person outside the window only looked at it for a while and then turned to leave, it was the Qing slave who was disguised as a quiet bamboo, and if you looked closely, you could still find that her shoulders trembled slightly.

Walking to his room, Qingnu took out a crumpled piece of paper from under the pillow, and slowly put the paper close to his chest, Qingnu took a deep breath, his eyes seemed to contain tears, lowered his head, and muttered: "Childe, Qingnu hopes you can know that Qingnu's sincerity." ”
